Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of baby products, and more specifically to a baby fence with a simple folding structure. Background Art

[0002] A baby fence is a device composed of a series of fences used to protect the safety of infants and young children. It limits the range of activities of infants and young children by forming a temporary fence area to ensure that they play in a safe area. In addition to safety, the design of the baby fence also needs to consider the needs of easy storage and carrying. This is because users may need to use it in different occasions, such as moving it between different rooms in the home, carrying it when traveling or visiting relatives and friends, or storing it in a cabinet when space is needed.

[0003] The panels of a traditional baby fence are usually designed independently, requiring the user to disassemble each panel separately and then collect them together for carrying and storage. Obviously, the disassembly and subsequent reassembly process is cumbersome, time-consuming, and easy to lose. In addition, some traditional baby fences have corresponding requirements for the installation order of the panels, which forces users to store them in a specific order, further increasing the inconvenience of use.

[0004] In view of the above problems of traditional baby fences, foldable baby fences are now available on the market. When not in use, the fence panels can be quickly folded and unfolded to save time. The folded fence is more compact and occupies less space, making it more suitable for carrying and storing in limited spaces. A Chinese patent with publication number CN209219704U and patent name "A folding structure of a child fence" discloses a foldable baby fence, which includes a first side panel, a second side panel, a lower locking sleeve, an upper locking sleeve and The lock buckle, the first side plate and the second side plate are provided with an upper connecting column and a lower connecting column, and the outer side wall of the lower connecting column is provided with an annular convex rib; the lower locking sleeve is provided with a lower locking hole, and the inner side wall of the lower locking hole is provided with a fixed step. When the lower locking sleeve is sleeved on the lower connecting column through the lower locking hole, the annular convex rib will abut against the fixed step; the upper locking sleeve is provided with an upper locking hole, and the lock buckle is provided with a positioning groove. When the upper connecting column is placed in the upper locking hole, the lock buckle is sleeved on the upper connecting column through the positioning groove and cooperates with the upper locking sleeve to limit the relative rotation of the upper connecting column in the upper locking hole.

[0005] The folding structure of the baby fence of the above structure is composed of an upper connecting column and a lower connecting column formed on the first side panel and the second side panel, and independent upper locking sleeves, lower locking sleeves and locking buckles, and every two corresponding first side panels and the second side panels need to be equipped with a set of upper locking sleeves, lower locking sleeves and locking buckles. Therefore, the design of the overall folding structure is relatively complicated, which increases the difficulty of production and manufacturing. At the same time, the large number of upper locking sleeves, lower locking sleeves and locking buckles still have the risk of being easily lost. In addition, the adjacent first side panels and the second side panels are still independent detachable structures. When the lower locking sleeve is accidentally removed, the first side panel and the second side panel will overturn. If reassembly is required, the first side panel and the second side panel need to maintain a specific angle to ensure that the lower connecting column can be inserted into the lower locking sleeve. Due to the large volume of the first side panel and the second side panel, the difficulty of assembly in this scenario is greatly increased. Utility Model Content

[0006] In view of the above situation, in order to overcome the problem that the folding structure of the foldable baby fence in the above-mentioned prior art contains a wide variety of accessories, which makes the folding structure more complicated, thereby increasing the difficulty of production and manufacturing, and the adjacent panels are independent detachable structures connected by connecting parts. When the connecting parts between each other are mistakenly removed, the adjacent panels will overturn. If they are to be reassembled, it is necessary to control the two panels to maintain a specific angle and be connected to the connecting parts at the same time, which greatly increases the difficulty of assembly in this scenario. The purpose of the utility model is to provide a baby fence with a simple folding structure between adjacent panels, accessories are not easy to lose, and are not easy to separate, thereby avoiding the need for reassembly due to separation, making the manufacturing difficulty lower and more convenient for users to use.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0028] The utility model is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0029] In the description of the present utility model, it should be noted that the terms "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "inside", "outside", etc. indicate directions or positional relationships based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, or the directions or positional relationships in which the utility model product is usually placed when in use. They are only for the convenience of simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the directions are specific directions that must be possessed and specific directions, structures, and operations, and therefore should not be understood as limitations on the present utility model.

[0030] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, the utility model relates to a baby fence with a simple folding structure, which includes a plurality of enclosures 1 arranged in parallel, and in particular, it also includes a plurality of stop members 2, each enclosure 1 is formed with a hinge portion 101, the hinge portion 101 is specifically located on the opposite surface of the adjacent enclosure 1, the hinge portions 101 between adjacent enclosures 1 are opposed to each other up and down, and are hinged to each other through a rotating shaft penetrating the hinge portion 101, so that the adjacent enclosures 1 can be rotated toward or away from each other around the rotating shaft through their respective hinge portions 101, the rotating shaft hinge structure is relatively simple, and the user can achieve rapid folding and unfolding by controlling each enclosure 1 and applying a simple rotating action, which significantly saves the time spent on carrying, storing or rebuilding, and the enclosures 1 are connected in series in a hinged manner through the rotating shaft, not only are the enclosures 1 not easy to separate and cause loss when folded and stored, but also avoid the need to rebuild due to separation. The trouble caused by the new assembly is eliminated, and the overall volume of the baby fence of the utility model is more compact after folding, which saves space and meets the carrying and storage needs in limited space. In addition, there are multiple stop components 2, and there is a corresponding stop component 2 between each enclosure 1 and the adjacent enclosure 1. The stop component 2 and the corresponding two enclosures 1 are configured to be detachably connected, and limit the rotation of the corresponding two enclosures 1 when connected, so that the corresponding enclosures 1 maintain a fixed angle in the unfolded state, thereby maintaining the stability of the enclosed area. It can be understood that adjacent enclosures 1 are connected only by a single stop component 2, which simplifies the number of accessories contained in the entire baby fence, not only making each stop component 2 more convenient to store and more convenient for users to use the baby fence, but also reducing the difficulty of producing the baby fence of the utility model accordingly.

[0031] like Figure 3 As shown, a step position 102 is formed between the enclosure 1 and its hinged portion 101. When two adjacent enclosures 1 are folded by rotation, the hinged portions 101 of each other are overlapped up and down, thereby forming a misalignment in space. During the rotation process, the step position 102 between the enclosure 1 and the hinged portion 101 can gradually form a step with the other enclosure 1 until they fit together, so that the adjacent enclosures 1 can be rotated to an angle of 180° after being flattened. As a result, the volume of the baby fence of the utility model after folding is more compact, further saving floor space, so as to better meet the carrying and storage needs in limited space.

[0032] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, there are multiple hinged parts 101 on the enclosure 1, and each hinged part 101 is spaced apart and staggered with the hinged parts 101 on the opposite surface of the adjacent enclosure 1. The arrangement of multiple hinged parts 101 increases the docking area between the two adjacent enclosures 1 and makes the stress points evenly distributed, so that the adjacent enclosures 1 are more stable when rotating toward or away from each other.

[0033] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, the hinged parts 101 on the enclosure 1 are distributed close to the upper and lower side edges, and an installation space is formed between the hinged parts 101 on the upper and lower sides. A rolling toy 3 hinged on a rotating shaft is provided in the installation space. When the infant fence of the utility model is built and the child enters the enclosed activity area, the rolling toy 3 can be moved to rotate around the rotating shaft to increase the fun of free play. The surface of the rolling toy 3 can also be painted with rich patterns so that the patterns drawn when the rolling toy itself is moved are presented to the children in a moving state, further increasing the fun of playing.

[0034] like Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, a locking groove 201 is provided on the stop member 2, and the stop member 2 is mounted from top to bottom on the upper edge of the corresponding two enclosures 1 and the uppermost hinge part 101 between the corresponding two enclosures 1 through the locking groove 201, and is detachably fixed to the corresponding two enclosures 1 by plug-in cooperation. The plug-in connection method is relatively simple to assemble and disassemble, which is convenient for the stop member 2 and the corresponding two enclosures 1 to be quickly connected or quickly separated when folding is required when building the baby fence of the utility model, thereby improving the efficiency of folding and unfolding. In addition, the stop member 2 cooperates with the upper side edges of the corresponding two enclosures 1 to facilitate users to exert control for disassembly and assembly.

[0035] like Figures 3 to 6 As shown, a limiting protrusion 202 corresponding to the two matching enclosures 1 is formed on the side wall of the lock groove 201, and a limiting groove 103 corresponding to the limiting protrusion 202 is opened on the outer wall of the two enclosures 1. The limiting protrusion 202 is embedded in the corresponding limiting groove 103. The groove wall of the limiting groove 103 and the outer wall of the limiting protrusion 202 are used to limit the relative movement of the stop member 2 and the corresponding two enclosures 1, thereby effectively reducing the possibility of loosening under the action of accidental force and ensuring the stability of the area enclosed by the baby fence of the utility model.

[0036] like Figures 4 to 6 As shown, the upper and lower side walls of the limit latch 202 are both inclined surfaces, and the corners are rounded. Based on the above arrangement, when the user needs to fold each enclosure 1 and control the stopping member 2 to separate from the corresponding enclosure 1, the limit latch 202 with an inclined side wall can slide along the matching position with the limiting groove 103 until it is separated from the limiting groove 103. After the limiting of the groove wall of the limiting groove 103 is released, the stopping member 2 can be directly separated from the corresponding enclosure 1.

[0037] like Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the topmost hinge part 101 and the enclosure 1 on which it is located are provided with a first card slot 104 and a second card slot 105, and another enclosure 1 adjacent to the enclosure 1 is provided with a third card slot 106, the first card slot 104 is connected to the second card slot 105, and is opposite to the third card slot 106, the first card slot 104, the second card slot 105 and the third card slot 106 are surrounded by a shape consistent with the outer edge of the opposite side of the stop member 2, the outer edges of the opposite sides of the stop member 2 and the corresponding two enclosures 1 are abutted against the first card slot 104, the second card slot 105 and the third card slot 106, so that the outer side wall thereof is flush with the side wall of the same side of the corresponding two enclosures 1, thereby improving the overall aesthetics of the baby fence of the utility model.

[0038] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the enclosure 1 includes at least one central plate a1 and a plurality of side plates a2 and a back plate a3. A door plate 107 is hinged on the central plate a1, and a perspective window 108 is provided on each side plate a2. By opening and closing the door plate 107, children can freely enter and exit the enclosed activity area after the baby fence of the utility model is built. At the same time, through the perspective window 108, users and children can also observe the scenes inside and outside the activity area from all directions.

[0039] Combination Figures 1 to 6 When the panels 1 of the baby fence of the present invention are built to form an activity area for children to play, the children can enter the activity area by opening the door panel body 107 on the panel 1 as the central panel body a1. After entering, the door panel body 107 is closed to allow the children to move safely in the closed activity area. The children can observe the state of the rolling toy 3 by turning the rolling toy 3 mounted on the rotating shaft of the adjacent panel 1 and play. When the baby fence is to be folded, firstly, each stopping member 2 is controlled to apply an external force away from the panel 1. Under the action of the external force, the limiting protrusion 202 with an inclined side wall can slide along the matching position with the limiting groove 103 until it is separated from the limiting groove 103. After the limiting of the groove wall of the limiting groove 103 is released, the stopping member 2 can be directly separated from the corresponding panel 1. After that, the user can control the rotation of each panel 1, and when the rotation angle is 180°, each panel 1 can overlap with each other, so that the volume after folding is minimized, meeting the carrying and storage needs in a limited space.

[0040] The above embodiments and descriptions are only for explaining the principle and the best embodiment of the present invention. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, the present invention may have various changes and improvements, and these changes and improvements shall fall within the scope of the present invention to be protected.
