Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of outdoor temporary construction, and in particular to a diagonal bracing structure of a sunshade awning. Background Art
[0002] Awnings are a commonly used outdoor temporary building, which usually includes an open, multi-faceted structure. The supporting structure of awnings currently sold on the market mostly consists of two parts: supporting columns and roof frames. The four sides of the tent are usually open or semi-open. A canopy tent can provide users with a temporary resting point, so it is often used as a shaded place for leisure or a venue for social activities.
[0003] However, the supporting columns of the common awnings on the market are independently connected to the roof frame, and there is a lack of effective connection and fixing components between the supporting columns. This makes the stability of the entire awning poor in strong wind conditions, which can easily cause damage to the entire supporting structure of the awning, affecting user use.
[0004] Therefore, the above-mentioned technical defects need to be changed urgently. Utility Model Content
[0005] In order to solve the technical problem in the prior art that there is a lack of effective supporting structure between the various support rods of the awning, which affects the structural stability of the entire awning, the present application proposes a diagonal support structure for the awning, which effectively improves the stability of the entire supporting structure by arranging diagonal support rods on the support rods and using the diagonal support rods to strengthen the connection between the support rods.
[0006] The present application proposes a sunshade awning diagonal support structure comprising:
[0007] At least two support rods, each support rod being provided with a first connection hole;
[0008] And an oblique support rod, one end of the oblique support rod is rotatably connected to the support rod, the end of the oblique support rod away from the support rod is connected with a connecting column, the connecting column matches the first connecting hole, and the end of the oblique support rod away from the support rod is connected to the adjacent support rod through the connecting column.
[0009] One end of the rod body is provided with a rotating shaft hole, and the support rod is provided with a rotating shaft matching the rotating shaft hole.
[0010] Furthermore, the diagonal support rod also includes a joint, which is connected to an end of the rod body away from the rotating shaft hole.
[0011] Furthermore, a connecting disk is provided on the support rod, and the first connecting hole is located on the connecting disk.
[0012] Further, a second connection hole is provided on the joint, the connecting column is connected to the joint, and both the first connection hole and the second connection hole are matched with the connecting column.
[0013] Further, a third connection hole is also provided on the joint, the first connection hole is located between the second connection hole and the third connection hole, and the connecting column is matched with the third connection hole.
[0014] Preferably, the third connection hole is threadedly connected to the connecting column.
[0015] Preferably, a receiving groove is provided on the support rod, and the receiving groove is matched with the diagonal support rod.
[0016] Preferably, a limiting elastic piece is provided in the receiving groove, and the limiting elastic piece is connected to the diagonal support rod by means of clamping.
[0017] Further, the joint is rotatably connected to the rod body.
[0018] The beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows: the diagonal support rod can form an additional connection structure between two adjacent support rods, so that the support rods are not only connected together through the roof frame. A triangular structure can be formed among two adjacent support rods, the diagonal support rod between the two support rods, and the roof frame, thereby effectively improving the connection stability between the support rods, further improving the stability of the entire sunshade, reducing the probability of damage to the entire sunshade in a windy environment, and extending the service life of the sunshade.

It is only for the convenience of describing the present application and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and thus should not be construed as a limitation to the present application. In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are only used for descriptive purposes and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the quantity of the indicated technical features. Thus, the features defined with "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of such features. In the description of the present application, unless otherwise specified, the meaning of "a plurality" is two or more.
[0029] In the description of the present application, it should be noted that unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installed", "connected", and "coupled" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, and it can be the communication inside two components. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0030] In addition, the technical features involved in different embodiments of the present invention described above can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.
[0031] In order to solve the technical problem in the prior art that there is no effective reinforcement structure between the support rods 20 of the sunshade, resulting in poor stability of the entire sunshade in windy conditions, please refer to Figure 1 , the present application proposes a sunshade diagonal support structure, which effectively improves the stability of the entire sunshade by adding diagonal support rods 30 between the support rods 20.
[0032] Please refer to Figure 2 , the sunshade diagonal support structure proposed in the present application includes two support rods 20 and diagonal support rods 30. In order to improve the strength of the entire sunshade and reduce the weight of the sunshade, the support rods 20 and diagonal support rods 30 in this embodiment are both made of aluminum alloy material. Of course, it is easy to think that designers can also use other materials that meet the requirements of strength and quality. The sunshades sold on the market usually include a canopy cloth, support rods 20, and a canopy frame structure; the frame structure of the canopy generally can realize a telescopic function, and the canopy cloth covers the canopy frame structure; one end of each support rod 20 is connected to the canopy frame structure. Therefore, the support rods 20 are essentially connected together through the canopy frame structure, and there is no effective reinforcement structure between adjacent support rods 20, which will cause the entire sunshade to shake significantly in windy conditions and easily cause damage to the sunshade. Please refer to Figure 1 , in the present application, the sunshade further includes a roof frame 10. Since the structure of the roof frame 10 belongs to the prior art, it will not be described in detail in the present application. One end of each support rod 20 facing away from the ground is connected to the canopy; in addition, in the present application, there are four support rods 20.
[0033] Please refer to Figure 2 And Figure 3, a first connection hole 22 is provided on each support rod 20 in the present application; one end of the diagonal brace 30 is connected to the support rod 20. Specifically, one end of the diagonal brace 30 is rotatably connected to the upper part of the support rod 20. A connection column 34 is connected to the end of the diagonal brace 30 away from the support rod 20. The connection column 34 matches the first connection hole 22. In this way, the end of the diagonal brace 30 away from the support rod 20 can be connected to the first connection hole 22 of the adjacent support rod 20 by using the connection column 34, so as to connect the diagonal brace 30 to two adjacent support rods 20, thereby achieving the reinforcement effect.
[0034] It should be noted that the support rod 20 where the diagonal brace 30 is located should be understood as the support rod 20 rotatably connected to the above-mentioned diagonal brace 30. A structure for accommodating the diagonal brace 30 rotatably connected to it is provided on the support rod 20, and the diagonal brace 30 is detachably connected to the support rod 20 adjacent to the support rod 20 where it is located. For the convenience of description, the support rod 20 where the diagonal brace 30 is located will be simply referred to as the support rod 20 in the following text, and the support rod 20 detachably connected to the above-mentioned diagonal brace 30 will be called the adjacent support rod 20.
[0035] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , when the diagonal brace 30 connects two adjacent support rods 20, a triangular reinforcement structure can be formed among the two support rods 20, the diagonal brace 30 between the two support rods 20, and the roof frame 10 at this time. The stability of the triangle is used to improve the stability of the entire sunshade, so that the entire sunshade can effectively cope with external environmental interference factors, such as strong winds. This not only improves the ability of the sunshade to adapt to a relatively harsh environment, but also can extend the service life of the entire sunshade.
[0036] In addition, since the diagonal brace 30 is detachably connected to the adjacent support rod 20, the user can freely choose which surface of the sunshade to install the diagonal brace 30, so as to control the number of openings of the sunshade, so that the sunshade can adapt to different usage environments. For example, when the sunshade is used as an outdoor temporary office location, such as a check-in point, the user can choose to set up three diagonal braces 30 at this time, so that the sunshade only has one entrance; when the sunshade is used as a passage, the user needs to set up two diagonal braces 30.
[0037] Furthermore, please refer to Figure 4, the diagonal brace 30 includes a rod body 31. In this embodiment, the rod body 31 is generally cylindrical. In order to reduce the space occupied by the rod body 31 when the entire sunshade is stored, the rod body 31 in this embodiment is made of a telescopic rod. The rod body 31 in this embodiment includes a solid rod and a hollow rod, and the solid rod and the hollow rod are matched and slide within the hollow tube. At one end of the rod body 31 facing the support rod 20, a rotating shaft hole 32 is provided, specifically on the end of the hollow rod facing away from the solid rod, and the connecting column 34 is connected to the end of the solid rod facing away from the hollow rod; correspondingly, on the support rod 20, a rotating shaft 25 matching the rotating shaft hole 32 is provided, thereby realizing the rotational connection between the support rod 20 and the diagonal brace 30.
[0038] Further, please refer to Figure 5 , the diagonal brace 30 in this application further includes a joint 33, and the diagonal brace 30 is detachably connected to the adjacent support rod 20 through the joint 33. The joint 33 in this embodiment is generally U-shaped, and the joint 33 is connected to the end of the rod body 31 facing away from the rotating shaft hole 32, specifically the end of the solid rod facing away from the rotating shaft hole 32. A clamping opening is formed on the joint 33, and the joint 33 is connected to the adjacent support rod 20 through the clamping opening. The end of the joint 33 facing away from the clamping opening is connected to the solid rod; preferably, the joint 33 in this embodiment is rotatably connected to the rod body 31, that is, the joint 33 is rotatably connected to the solid rod.
[0039] A connecting disk 21 is provided on the support rod 20. The connecting disk 21 is generally located at the lower part of the support rod 20. The connecting disk 21 is arranged around the support rod 20, and the first connecting hole 22 is located on the connecting disk 21. Specifically, the connecting disk 21 in this embodiment is generally circular, and four first connecting holes 22 are provided thereon, and the four first connecting holes 22 are arranged around the connecting disk 21. When the diagonal brace 30 is connected to the adjacent support rod 20, the clamping opening on the joint 33 of the diagonal brace 30 will clamp on the connecting disk 21 of the adjacent support rod 20.
[0040] Correspondingly, a second connecting hole 331 and a third connecting hole 332 are respectively provided on the two side walls of the clamping opening, and both the second connecting hole 331 and the third connecting hole 332 are matched with the connecting column 34.
[0041] In some embodiments, only the second connection hole 331 is provided on the joint 33. At this time, the joint 33 will generally be plate-shaped, and both the first connection hole 22 and the second connection hole 331 are in interference fit with the connecting column 34, and the diagonal brace 30 is connected to the adjacent support rod 20 by means of clamping; in addition, in one embodiment, the connecting column 34 is threadedly connected to the second connection hole 331. At this time, the connecting column 34 is in the shape of a screw. When connecting, the nut on the connecting column 34 and the side wall where the second connection hole 331 is located jointly clamp the connection disk 21 to achieve the connection between the diagonal brace 30 and the adjacent support rod 20.
[0042] However, in this embodiment, the connecting column 34 is generally in the shape of a screw, and the third connection hole 332 is threadedly connected to the connecting column 34. Correspondingly, internal threads are provided on the inner wall of the third connection hole 332. Since the connection disk 21 is located in the clamping port on the joint 33 when the diagonal brace 30 is connected to the adjacent support rod 20, the first connection hole 22 is located between the second connection hole 331 and the third connection hole 332, and at this time, the third connection hole 332 is located at the position closest to the ground. In this way, the threaded connection between the third connection hole 332 and the connecting column 34 can effectively fix the connection disk 21 in the clamping port, thereby achieving the connection of the diagonal brace 30 to the adjacent support rod 20.
[0043] Please refer to Figure 6, in another embodiment, a protrusion 341 is provided at one end of the connecting post 34. The protrusion 341 can prevent the connecting post 34 from passing through any one of the first connecting hole 22, the second connecting hole 331, and the third connecting hole 332. In this way, without external force, the connecting post 34 cannot pass through any of the above connecting holes; in addition, the protrusion 341 should have a certain elasticity so that the user can make the connecting post 34 pass through the connecting hole when applying an external force to the connecting post 34. Generally speaking, the connecting post 34 is always connected to the joint 33. Specifically, the protrusion 341 of the connecting post 34 is located in the clamping mouth of the joint 33, that is, the protrusion 341 is located between the second connecting hole 331 and the third connecting hole 332. And in this embodiment, the width of the clamping mouth is greater than the thickness of the connecting disc 21. Therefore, when using the joint 33 in this embodiment, first, the connecting post 34 needs to be lifted and the clamping part of the joint 33 is sleeved on the connecting disc 21, and the second connecting hole 331 is aligned with the first connecting hole 22. Then, an external force is applied to the connecting post 34 so that the protrusion 341 of the connecting post 34 passes through the first connecting hole 22 and the third connecting hole 332 in sequence. After the external force is released, due to the blocking of the protrusion 341, the connecting post 34 cannot pass through the third connecting hole 332, so that the connecting disc 21 can be located in the clamping mouth. Of course, when it is necessary to release the connection between the diagonal strut 30 and the adjacent support rod 20, the user also needs to apply an external force to the connecting post 34 so that the protrusion 341 of the connecting post 34 passes through the third connecting hole 332 and the second connecting hole 331.
[0044] Further, in order to facilitate the storage of the entire sunshade, a receiving groove 23 is provided on the support rod 20. The receiving groove 23 is matched with the diagonal strut 30. Specifically, the hollow rod of the rod body 31 of the diagonal strut 30 is matched with the receiving groove 23. Correspondingly, a limiting elastic piece 24 is provided in the receiving groove 23. The limiting elastic piece 24 connects the diagonal strut 30 by clamping, so as to fix the rod body 31 of the diagonal strut 30 in the receiving groove 23 and prevent the diagonal strut 30 from separating from the receiving groove 23 during storage.
[0045] In addition, a gasket 26 is further provided at one end of the support rod 20 facing the ground. The gasket 26 is provided with a through hole, so that the user can also use a heavy object to press the gasket 26, or use a ground nail to pass through the through hole and enter the ground, so as to realize the reinforcement of the sunshade.
[0046] In summary, the diagonal brace 30 in the present application can connect two adjacent support rods 20, thereby forming a diagonal brace reinforcement structure between the two adjacent support rods 20. In this way, the support rods 20 are not only connected together through the roof frame 10, but also a reinforcement structure can be formed by using the diagonal brace 30, thereby improving the stability of the entire sunshade. For example, it can prevent the sunshade from shaking or being damaged by the wind in windy conditions. The detachable connection between the diagonal brace 30 and the adjacent support rod 20 enables the user to choose on which side of the sunshade to set the diagonal brace structure, thereby controlling the number and orientation of the entrances and exits on the sunshade, so that the sunshade can adapt to different usage environments. The receiving groove 23 can accommodate the support rod 20 and the diagonal brace 30, thereby reducing the space occupied by the diagonal brace 30 during storage.
[0047] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely examples given for clear illustration and are not limitations on the implementation manners. For those of ordinary skill in the art, other different forms of changes or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is not necessary and impossible to list all the implementation manners here. And the obvious changes or modifications derived therefrom are still within the protection scope of the present utility model.
