DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0025] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present invention, and are not used to limit the present invention.
[0026] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, a locking device includes a fixing rod 1 and a locking frame 2, the fixing rod 1 is provided with a fixing component 3, the locking frame 2 is provided with a locking component 4, the fixing component 3 is provided with a fixing column 301, the locking component 4 is rotatably connected to be provided with a locking piece 402, the locking piece 402 is provided with a clamping position 4021, when the locking piece 402 rotates upward, the clamping position 4021 is clamped on the fixing column 301, restricting the rotation of the locking frame 2 relative to the fixing rod 1, thereby locking the wheelchair in the unfolded state, effectively preventing the user from having poor stability when riding, and the locking method is suitable for wheelchairs that adopt an up and down folding method, with a simple structure, quick and convenient locking, and improved wheelchair folding efficiency.
[0027] The locking assembly 4 includes a first mounting seat 401, a locking piece 402 is rotatably connected to a mounting column 404, the mounting column 404 is arranged on the first mounting seat 401, the first mounting seat 401 is arranged on the locking frame 2, the fixing assembly 3 includes a second mounting seat 302, the fixing column 301 is arranged on the second mounting seat 302, the second mounting seat 302 is arranged in the middle of the fixing rod 1, the upper end of the clamping position 4021 extends outward to form a footrest position 4022, the lower end of the clamping position 4021 is provided with a connecting hole 4024, and the mounting column 404 is inserted into the connecting hole 4025.
[0028] Connecting plug-ins 403 are provided on both sides of the first mounting seat 401, and the middle part of the connecting plug-in 403 is surrounded to form a recessed position 4031. The shape of the fixing rod 1 matches the shape of the recessed position 4031. A plurality of reinforcing ribs 4023 are provided at the junction of the footrest position 4022 and the clamping position 4021. The reinforcing ribs 4023 effectively enhance the strength of the locking piece 402 and extend the service life of the locking piece 402. A plurality of dark patterns 4024 are provided on the surface of the footrest position 4022. The dark patterns 4024 increase the friction force. The locking piece 402 can be rotated by stepping on the footrest position 4022, and it is not easy to slip.
[0029] The mounting post 404 is sleeved with a torsion spring 405, one end of which is arranged on the locking piece 402, and the other end of the torsion spring 405 is against the first mounting seat 401. The torsion spring 405 makes the locking piece 402 elastic, and in the absence of external force, the engaging position 4021 and the fixing post 301 remain in an engaged state. When the locking piece 402 is rotated downward to disengage the engaging position 4021 from the fixing post 301, when the applied force disappears, the torsion spring 405 drives the locking piece 402 to return to its original position, thereby not affecting the folding of the wheelchair.
[0030] A wheelchair, wherein a fixing rod 1 is arranged on a backrest frame 5 of the wheelchair, Figure 5 The wheelchair is in the unfolded state. When the wheelchair is in the unfolded state, the engaging position 4021 is engaged with the fixing column 301, and the concave position 4031 is wrapped and connected with the fixing rod 1. This double fixing method makes the wheelchair structure more solid.
[0031] Figure 6 When the wheelchair is in the folded state, the footrest 4022 is pressed to rotate the locking piece 402 downward, and the engaging position 4021 is disengaged from the fixing column 301, so that the locking frame 2 is rotated relative to the backrest frame 5, thereby realizing the folding of the wheelchair, facilitating storage, and achieving the effect of saving space.
[0032] Finally, it should be noted that the above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features therein. However, any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
