[0029] When fishing outdoors, the weather may be sunny or rainy. Therefore, fishermen usually equip themselves with an outdoor umbrella. For existing outdoor umbrellas, an outdoor ground plug is usually required to fix them to the muddy ground. Common outdoor ground plugs include a plug rod and a footrest. The plug rod is provided with a stud portion, and the footrest is provided with a threaded hole. The footrest is detachably installed on the plug rod by means of a threaded connection. The stud portion is also used to install the body of the outdoor umbrella. When the outdoor ground plug is unfolded for use, the user can step on the footrest to press the plug rod into the muddy ground. Subsequently, the stud portion of the plug rod can be connected to the body of the outdoor umbrella. When the outdoor ground plug is stored, the plug rod and the footrest can be disassembled to save storage space. Currently, the above-mentioned outdoor ground plug is relatively troublesome in the unfolding and storage processes and is not very convenient to use.
[0030] There is also an outdoor ground plug on the market. Its footrest is locked to the plug rod by a bolt-nut pair. When the bolt-nut pair is loosened, the footrest can swing relative to the plug rod and switch from the folded position to the unfolded position. Subsequently, the bolt needs to be tightened to fix the footrest relative to the plug rod in the unfolded position so that the footrest can bear force and press the plug rod into the ground. The unfolding and storage processes are also relatively troublesome and not very convenient to use.
[0031] Referring to Figures 1 to 5 , the outdoor ground plug of the embodiment of the present invention includes a plug rod 100 and a footrest 200. One end of the plug rod 100 is a ground-inserting end 110, and the other end is a fitting connection end; the footrest 200 is rotatably arranged on the plug rod 100 and can be rotated to switch between the unfolded position and the folded position. The footrest 200 is provided with an unfolding limiting portion 210. In the unfolded position, the footrest 200 extends radially outward relative to the plug rod 100, and the unfolding limiting portion 210 abuts against the plug rod 100 and limits the unfolding angular position of the footrest 200; in the folded position, the footrest 200 and the plug rod 100 are folded with each other.
[0032] When the outdoor ground plug needs to be used, the footrest 200 can be directly rotated to the unfolded position. Since the unfolding limiting portion 210 abuts against the plug rod 100 to limit the unfolding angular position of the footrest 200, the user can step on the footrest 200 forcefully to press the plug rod 100 into the muddy ground. The unfolding process of the outdoor ground plug is relatively simple; when the outdoor ground plug needs to be stored, the footrest 200 is directly rotated to the folded position. At this time, the footrest 200 and the plug rod 100 are folded to save storage space. The storage process of the outdoor ground plug is relatively simple, thus making the use of the outdoor ground plug more convenient.
[0033] In an embodiment, the footrest 200 is provided with a folding limiting portion 240. When the footrest 200 is in the folded position, the folding limiting portion 240 abuts against one side of the insertion rod 100 and limits the storage angle position of the footrest 200. Since the footrest 200 can rotate relative to the insertion rod 100, when the footrest 200 rotates from the unfolded position towards the folded position, the folded position of the footrest 200 relative to the insertion rod 100 may not be stable enough, which affects the occupied space after folding and may also rotate excessively, making it inconvenient for the next use. After the footrest 200 is provided with the folding limiting portion 240, the folded position of the footrest 200 relative to the insertion rod 100 can be made more stable, the occupied space after folding can be reduced as much as possible, and the footrest 200 is prevented from rotating excessively, facilitating the next unfolding and use of the outdoor ground plug.
[0034] In an embodiment, the footrest 200 includes a main frame body 220 and a limiting block 230. The main frame body 220 is pivotally connected to the insertion rod 100, and the limiting block 230 is connected to the main frame body 220. The unfolding limiting portion 210 is one side surface of the limiting block 230, and the folding limiting portion 240 is the other side surface of the limiting block 230. By using different two side surfaces of the limiting block 230, the unfolding limiting portion 210 and the folding limiting portion 240 are respectively formed, which simplifies the structure of the footrest 200 and eliminates the need to separately manufacture two different blocks to form the unfolding limiting portion 210 and the folding limiting portion 240 respectively. It can be imagined that in some other embodiments, the footrest 200 can also be provided with two separate blocks, one block forming the unfolding limiting portion 210 and the other block forming the folding limiting portion 240, and those skilled in the art can configure it according to actual needs.
[0035] In an embodiment, the unfolding limiting portion 210 and the folding limiting portion 240 are perpendicular to each other, which is convenient for the processing and manufacturing of the limiting block 230. The two mutually perpendicular side surfaces of the limiting block 230 can respectively form the unfolding limiting portion 210 and the folding limiting portion 240.
[0036] In an embodiment, the footrest 200 is a bar-shaped member. When the footrest 200 is in the unfolded position, the footrest 200 is perpendicular to the insertion rod 100. When the footrest 200 is in the folded position, the footrest 200 is parallel to the insertion rod 100. When the footrest 200 is in the unfolded position, being perpendicular to the insertion rod 100 enables the footrest 200 to be relatively easily stepped on by the user without slipping, facilitating the pressing of the outdoor ground plug into the muddy ground. When the footrest 200 is in the folded position, being parallel to the insertion rod 100 enables the combined volume of the footrest 200 and the insertion rod 100 to be smaller after folding, further saving storage space.
[0037] It can be understood that when in the unfolded position, the footrest 200 can also be non-perpendicular to the insertion rod 100; when in the folded position, the footrest 200 can also be non-parallel to the insertion rod 100.
[0038] In an embodiment, the unfolding limiting portion 210 is an arc surface, which is adapted to the outer peripheral surface of the insertion rod 100. When the outdoor ground plug is in the unfolded position, the footrest 200 is in surface contact with the insertion rod 100 through the unfolding limiting portion 210. Thus, the footrest 200 can withstand a relatively large foot stepping force, facilitating the user to press and insert the outdoor ground plug into the muddy ground with force, and the cooperation strength between the footrest 200 and the insertion rod 100 is relatively good.
[0039] It can be imagined that the unfolding limiting portion 210 can also be a flat surface. In this case, the unfolding limiting portion 210 is in line contact with the outer peripheral surface of the insertion rod 100; or the unfolding limiting portion 210 can also be an arc surface, but the radius of the arc surface is different from the radius of the insertion rod 100, etc.
[0040] Specifically, the folding limiting portion 240 is a flat surface. When the footrest 200 is folded, the insertion rod 100 and the folding limiting portion 240 are in line contact, making the contact between the footrest 200 and the insertion rod 100 relatively stable.
[0041] In an embodiment, the footrest 200 is provided with a protection groove 250. When the footrest 200 is in the folded position, the fitting connection end is accommodated in the protection groove 250. When the footrest 200 is in the folded position, the fitting connection end is still located in the protection groove 250, so that the footrest 200 also has the function of protecting the fitting connection end in the folded position, reducing the wear of the fitting connection end caused by external collisions, and the footrest 200 has multiple functions.
[0042] In an embodiment, the fitting connection end of the insertion rod 100 is provided with a stud portion 120. When the footrest 200 is in the folded position, the groove wall of the protection groove 250 is spaced from the stud portion 120. The insertion rod 100 can install the main body of the outdoor umbrella through the stud portion 120, and the disassembly and assembly are relatively convenient; and the groove wall of the protection groove 250 is spaced from the stud portion 120, so that the stud portion 120 is not easily worn during the frequent unfolding and folding process of the footrest 200, improving the durability of the stud portion.
[0043] It can be imagined that the fitting connection end of the insertion rod 100 can also be provided with a threaded hole, and at this time, the main body of the outdoor umbrella is correspondingly provided with a stud portion 120.
[0044] In an embodiment, the footrest 200 includes a main frame body 220. The main frame body 220 is U-shaped and forms a protection groove 250. The opposite two side groove walls of the protection groove 250 are respectively pivotally connected to the insertion rod 100. The structure of the footrest 200 forming the protection groove 250 is relatively simple, and the connection strength between the footrest 200 and the insertion rod 100 is relatively high.
[0045] Specifically, both the footrest 200 and the insertion rod 100 are provided with shaft holes, and a rotating shaft is inserted through the shaft holes, so that the insertion rod 100 is rotatably connected to the footrest 200. Stopper blocks are fixedly connected to both ends of the rotating shaft for restricting the position of the footrest 200 relative to the insertion rod 100. It can be imagined that the shaft hole can also be provided on the footrest 200 and the rotating shaft on the insertion rod 100; or the rotating shaft can be provided on the footrest 200 and the shaft hole on the insertion rod 100; or the footrest 200 and the insertion rod 100 can be rotatably connected through a hinge, etc., all of which can achieve the rotational connection of the footrest 200 relative to the insertion rod 100.
[0046] It can be imagined that the footrest 200 can also be a rod, and one end of the footrest 200 is pivotally connected to the insertion rod 100.
[0047] In the embodiment, both the insertion rod 100 and the footrest 200 are made of metal, and metal materials that are not easily rusted, such as stainless steel or aluminum alloy, can be used, so that the overall structural strength of the outdoor ground plug is better and it is convenient to bear greater external forces.
[0048] Specifically, the ground insertion end 110 of the insertion rod 100 is a tip, which is convenient for inserting into the muddy ground.

[0050] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, those of ordinary skill in the art can understand that various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the claims and their equivalents.
