Figure 1 As shown, the box fixing structure 1000 includes a box 100 , a restraining belt 200 and an adjuster (also called a limiting device) 300 .
[0099] The box 100 can be, for example, any suitable type of carrier. In some embodiments, the box 100 can be a plastic box, a metal box, etc. for holding items. In some embodiments, the box 100 can be a pet box, a pet basket, a pet bag, etc. for accommodating pets. The shape of the box 100 can be a cube, a rectangular parallelepiped, or other irregular bodies. The box 100 generally includes a bottom plate 101, a top plate 102, and side plates 103 located between the bottom plate 101 and the top plate 102. The distance between the top plate 102 and the bottom plate 101 of the box 100 defines the height H of the box 100. The side plates 103 can include a front side plate 1031, a rear side plate 1032, a left side plate 1033, and a right side plate 1034. In some embodiments, the box 100 can have a bilaterally symmetrical shape. In some embodiments, the box 100 can be provided with a handle ( Figure 1 (not shown in the figure), the handle can be installed on the top plate 102 of the box body 100, or the handle can be connected to any two opposite side plates of the box body 100.
[0100] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified or limited, the directional terms such as "front", "rear", "left", and "right" in the embodiments of the present invention refer to the case where the box 100 is placed on the seat 400 (see FIG. Figure 2 ) are used to indicate the "front," "rear," "left," and "right" directions of the seat 400 when the seat 400 is in a forward position. Arrows F and B schematically indicate the "front" and "rear" directions, and arrows L and R schematically indicate the "left" and "right" directions. These directional terms are used only to clarify the description of the embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to unduly limit the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0101] See also Figure 2 The seat 400 may be, but is not limited to, a vehicle seat such as a car seat or an airplane seat. The seat 400 includes a seat portion 410 and a backrest portion 420. The front of the seat 400 is provided with, for example, two or more sockets 42. The two or more sockets 42 are located between the seat portion 410 and the backrest portion 420 and are spaced laterally (left-right). Each socket 42 may be an ISOFIX socket.
[0102] Continue to see Figure 1, the restraint belt 200 is attached to the box 100. The restraint belt 200 includes two connecting ends 22. The two connecting ends 22 are located outside the box 100 and are provided with anchors 26, each anchor 26 is used to connect to an anchor point at any appropriate position. Figure 2 When the box 100 is placed on the seat 400, the bottom plate 101 of the box 100 is supported by the seat portion 410, and the rear side plate 1032 of the box 100 faces the backrest portion 420. The two connecting ends 22 of the restraint belt 200 are detachably connected to the corresponding sockets 42 (the sockets 42 serve as anchor points), thereby connecting the box 100 to the seat 400. It will be understood that the anchors 26 are correspondingly ISOFIX plug-ins.
[0103] The adjuster 300 is connected to the restraint belt 200. The relative position of the adjuster 300 and the restraint belt 200 can be adjusted to adjust the length of the restraint belt 200 between the adjuster 300 and the anchor 26. In this way, when the box 100 is placed on the seat 400 and each anchor 26 is connected to the corresponding socket 42, the restraint belt 200 connected between the box 100 and the socket 42 can be tightened by adjusting the length of the restraint belt 200 between the adjusting device 300 and the anchor 26. In this way, in the event of an emergency braking, the box 100 placed on the seat 400 can be subjected to the effective pulling force of the tightened restraint belt 300, and is not prone to sliding forward or even falling relative to the seat 400. In some embodiments, the adjuster 300 can be an A-LOCK, a webbing adjustment device or a Japanese buckle or other structure, and the adjuster 300 only needs to be able to adjust and fix the length of the restraint belt 200.
[0104] See also Figure 1 The adjuster 300 can be mounted on the box 100, and the restraint belt 200 passes through the adjuster 300 and can be locked by the adjuster 300. The restraint belt 200 can also include an adjustment end 21, and the adjuster 300 can be located between the adjustment end 21 and each connection end 22 of the restraint belt 200. The user can pull the adjustment end 21 along the S direction to shorten the length of the portion of the restraint belt 200 located between the adjuster 300 and the anchor 26. It can be understood that when the portion of the restraint belt 200 located between the adjuster 300 and the anchor 26 is tensioned and there is no need to continue pulling the adjustment end 21, the restraint belt 200 can be locked by the adjuster 300, that is, the portion of the restraint belt 200 located between the adjuster 300 and the anchor 26 can be kept in a tensioned state.
[0105] It should be noted that the number of connection ends 22 of the restraint belt 200 is not limited to the two mentioned above. In some embodiments, the restraint belt 200 may have a connection end 22, and the anchor 26 on the connection end 22 can be selectively connected to one of the two or more sockets 42. Alternatively, in some embodiments, the restraint belt 200 may have more than two connection ends 22, and the multiple connection ends 22 are correspondingly configured with multiple anchors 26. At least a portion of the multiple anchors 26 can be selectively connected to two or more sockets 42, and the other anchors 26 can be detachably connected to any other suitable anchor point. It can be understood that in order to adapt to different types of anchor points, the type of anchor 26 is not limited to the ISOFIX plug-in. In some embodiments, the anchor 26 can be, for example, a hook, a buckle, etc.
[0106] Figure 1 shows an exemplary embodiment of a restraint belt 200. The restraint belt 200, for example, includes a first sub-belt 210 and two second sub-belts 220, forming a Y-shape overall. The first end of the first sub-belt 210 corresponds to the adjustment end 21 of the restraint belt 200, and the second end of the first sub-belt 210 connects to the first ends of the two second sub-belts 220. The second ends of the two second sub-belts 220 correspond to the two connecting ends 22, each of which is provided with an anchor 26.
[0107] Continue to see Figure 1 , the adjuster 300 can be set at the bottom of the front side panel 1031 of the box 100. In other embodiments, the adjuster 300 can be set at the top of the front side panel 1031 of the box or other suitable positions. The first sub-band 210 passes through the adjuster 300, and the connection end 22 on each second sub-band 220 extends from the front side panel 1031 along the bottom of the box 100 to the rear side panel 1032, then extends upward along the rear side panel 1032, and then extends from the predetermined height D1 of the rear side panel 1032 to the outside of the box 100 (it can also be said that the connection end 22 leaves the box 100 at a predetermined height). In some embodiments, the predetermined height D1 is not less than half of the height H, that is, D1 ≥ H / 2. In some embodiments, the predetermined height D1 can be close to or equal to the height H. Of course, in some embodiments, the predetermined height D1 can be less than half of the height H. In some embodiments. For example, the predetermined height D1 can be greater than one-third or one-quarter of the height H.
[0108] See also Figure 2When the box 100 is mounted on the seat 400, the connecting ends 22 extending from the predetermined height D1 extend toward the rear and lower portion of the box 100 to allow the anchors 26 to connect with the corresponding sockets 42. When the restraint straps 200 between the adjusters 300 and the anchors 26 are tightened, the restraint straps 200 effectively prevent the box 100 from rolling forward, thereby stably supporting the box 100 on the seat 400.
[0109] In some embodiments, the rear side panel 1032 of the box body 100 may be provided with a hard part 15, and the hard part 15 may be made of a hard material, including but not limited to hard plastic, metal, etc. The hard part 15 has a support portion 151, and the support portion 151 may be lower than the top plate 102 or flush with the top plate 102. Each connection end 22 is passed around the support portion 151 of the hard part 15 and then extends to the outside of the box body 100. The height of the support portion 151 corresponds to the predetermined height D1. The hard part 15 can be attached to the rear side panel 1032 of the box body 100 in any suitable manner, as long as it can support the restraint belt 200 through its support portion 151. The hard part 15 can be a solid part or a hollow part with a hollow channel.
[0110] See also Figure 1 When the hard member 15 is a solid member (for example, a solid sheet), each connecting end 22 extends upward between the rear side plate 1032 and the hard member 15, and passes around the support portion 151 of the hard member 15 to extend outward from the box body 100. Figure 4 When the hard member 15 has a hollow channel 150 , each connecting end 22 of the restraining belt 200 enters the hollow channel 150 from the bottom of the hollow channel 150 , and then passes around the supporting portion 151 of the hard member 15 and extends outward.
[0111] See also Figure 1 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the upper edge of the hard member 15 forms a support portion 151. Figure 5 In some embodiments, a notch 155 extending downward is formed at the upper edge of the hard member 15, and the lower edge of the notch 155 forms a support portion 151. Figure 6 In some embodiments, the hard member 15 is provided with an aperture 153, and the lower edge of the aperture 153 forms a support portion 151. Figure 7 In some embodiments, the hard member 15 is provided with an opening 156, which is distal to the bottom plate 101 of the box 100. The opening 156 may be provided in an area above half the height of the rear side plate 1032 and extend outward, or may extend outward from an area of the rear side plate 1032 near the top plate 102. The connection ends 22 of the restraint straps 200 extend from the opening 156 to the exterior of the box 100.
[0112] In some embodiments, the hard member 15 may be embedded in the rear side panel 1032 without protruding relative to the rear side panel 1032. In some embodiments, the hard member 15 may be attached to the rear side panel 1032 and protrude relative to the rear side panel 1032. In some embodiments, a portion of the hard member 15 may be embedded in the rear side panel 1032, while another portion protrudes relative to the rear side panel 1032.
[0113] In some embodiments, the rear side panel 1032 of the housing 100 includes a covering layer 10321, with the hard member 15 located outside the covering layer 10321. The hardness of the hard member 15 is greater than that of the covering layer 10321. The covering layer 10321 can be made of, for example, fabric. Each connecting end 22 extends upward between the covering layer 10321 and the hard member 15 and protrudes from the support portion 151 of the hard member 15 toward the exterior of the housing 100.
[0114] This embodiment does not limit the size and shape of the hard part 15. In some embodiments, the bottom of the hard part 15 can extend to the bottom plate 101 of the box body 100. In some embodiments, the bottom of the hard part 15 can be higher than the bottom plate 101. In some embodiments, the hard part 15 can be located in the transverse middle position of the rear side plate 1032, and the width W of the hard part 15 is less than the width of the rear side plate 1032. In some embodiments, the hard part 15 can correspond to the size of the rear side plate 1032. In some embodiments, the hard part 15 can also be arranged on the left or right side of the rear side plate 1032. In some embodiments, two or more hard parts 15 can be configured, and the two or more hard parts 15 are arranged symmetrically on the left and right, and each connection end 22 of the restraint belt 200 is respectively passed through the support portion 151 of the corresponding hard part 15 and then extends to the outside of the box body 100.
[0115] See also Figures 1 to 3 , shows an exemplary embodiment of an adjuster 300. The adjuster 300 is mounted on the bottom of the case 100, near the front panel 1031 of the case 100. The adjuster 300 includes, for example, a lock 310 disposed on the case 100. The lock 310 may include a housing 313, a locking member 312, a pivot 314, and a torsion spring 315. The locking member 312, pivot 314, and torsion spring 315 are mounted to the housing 313, which is mounted to the case 100. The housing 313 includes a locking channel 311 formed therein for the restraint strap 200 to pass through. The restraint strap 200 (more specifically, the first sub-strap 210) enters the housing 313 at one end of the locking channel 311 and exits the housing 313 at the other end. The locking member 312 is mounted to the housing 313 via the pivot 314, and the torsion spring 315 is mounted on the pivot 314 and connected between the housing 313 and the locking member 312. More specifically, the middle portion of the locking member 312 is pivotally connected to the housing 313 via a pivot 314. Figure 3 The first end 3121 of the locking member 312 is used as a locking end to press the first sub-belt 210 against the channel wall 3111 of the locking channel 311, thereby locking the position of the restraint belt 200. The torsion spring 315 is used to keep the locking member 312 in the Figure 3 The second end 3122 of the locking member 312 serves as a pressing end to enable the locking member 312 to rotate around the pivot 314 , thereby releasing the locking of the first sub-band 210 by the first end 3121 of the locking member 312 .
[0116] In some embodiments, the first end 3121 of the locking member 312 may have a curved surface for abutting the first sub-strap 210, and the curved surface may be provided with raised teeth. When the first end 3121 of the locking member 312 abuts the first sub-strap 210 against the channel wall 3111, the abutment of the raised teeth against the first sub-strap 210 effectively prevents movement of the first sub-strap 210. In some embodiments, the raised teeth on the curved surface may be configured as a ratchet structure. This allows the restraint strap 200 to be pulled by the adjustment end 21 to tighten the portion of the restraint strap 200 between the adjuster 300 and the anchor 26 when the locking member 312 is locked, without pressing the second end 3122 of the locking member 312. Once the restraint strap 200 is adjusted into position, the adjustment end 21 is no longer pulled, and the adjuster 300 maintains tension on the portion of the restraint strap 200 between the locking member 312 and the anchor 26. It can be understood that when it is necessary to release the connection between the anchor 26 and the socket 42, the second end 3122 of the locking member 312 is pressed to release the abutment of the first end 3121 of the locking member 312 against the first sub-band 210, and the part of the restraint belt 200 located between the adjuster 300 and the anchor 26 can be loosened.
[0117] Figure 8The box fixing structure 1000 provided according to the second embodiment of the present invention is schematically shown. The box fixing structure 1000 includes a box 100, a restraint belt 200 and an adjuster 300. In the absence of any conflict, the box 100 can refer to the description in the first embodiment. For example, the box 100 includes a bottom plate 101, a top plate 102 and a side plate 103, and the side plate 103 includes a front side plate 1031, a rear side plate 1032, a left side plate 1033 and a right side plate 1034. In the absence of any conflict, the restraint belt 200 can refer to the description in the first embodiment. For example, the restraint belt 200 can include a first sub-belt 210 and two second sub-belts 220. The restraint belt 200 is Y-shaped as a whole. The first end of the first sub-belt 210 corresponds to the adjustment end 21 of the restraint belt 200, and the second end of the first sub-belt 210 is connected to the first ends of the two second sub-belts 220. The second ends of the two second sub-bands 220 correspond to the two connecting ends 22, and each connecting end 22 is respectively provided with an anchor 26. In the absence of conflict, the adjuster 300 may refer to the adjuster 300 in the first embodiment.
[0118] See also Figure 8 The two connecting ends 22 of the restraint belt 200 extend from the front side panel 1031 to the left side panel 1033 and the right side panel 1034, respectively, then extend rearward along the left side panel 1033 and the right side panel 1034, and extend from a predetermined height D2 of the box body 100 to the outside of the box body 100. The relationship between the predetermined height D2 and the box body height H can refer to the relationship between the predetermined height D1 and the box body height H described above.
[0119] See also Figure 8 In some embodiments, the adjuster 300 can be installed in the middle of the front side panel 1031, with the adjuster 300 being higher than the bottom panel 101 of the box 100. The first sub-strap 210 corresponds to the front side panel 1031 of the box 100. The first ends of the two second sub-straps 220 are respectively connected to the second ends of the first sub-strap 210, and the second ends of the two second sub-straps 220 pass through the adjuster 300.
[0120] In some embodiments, the adjuster 300 may include the lock 310 of the first embodiment, and the two second sub-straps 220 may have a portion that overlaps and is located between the first end 3121 of the locking member 312 and the channel wall 3111 of the locking channel 311. When the locking member 312 is in the locked state, the locking member 312 forces the two overlapping second sub-straps 220 to abut against the channel wall 3111 of the locking channel 311, thereby locking the position of the restraint belt 200. When the user pulls the adjustment end 21, the two second sub-straps 220 may slide simultaneously relative to the locking channel 311. Of course, in other embodiments, the adjuster 300 may also have other implementations.
[0121] See also Figure 8In some embodiments, the adjuster 300 includes an opening 301 and an opening 302 that are opposite to each other on the left and right sides, and the two connecting ends 22 can pass through the adjuster 300 through the opening 301 and the opening 302 respectively.
[0122] Continue to see Figure 8 In some embodiments, the box 100 may be provided with a guide structure 111 for guiding and supporting the restraining belt 200. The guide structure 111 defines a predetermined height D2. In some embodiments, the guide structure 111 may be provided on the side panel 103 of the box 100. The guide structure 111 may include, for example, a groove-shaped structure 1101 provided on the side panel 103 and at least one stopper 1102. The groove-shaped structure may extend from the left side panel 1033 and the right side panel 1034 of the box 100 to the rear side panel 1032 of the box 100, respectively. At least part of the stopper 1102 is located near the end of the corresponding groove-shaped structure on the rear side panel 1032, and the two connection ends 22 extend to the outside of the box 100 after passing through the corresponding stopper 1102.
[0123] Continue to see Figure 8 In some embodiments, the lateral width of the box 100 is greater than the lateral distance between the two sockets 42 on the seat 400 , and the lateral width W1 between the positions where the two connection ends 22 leave the box 100 can be greater than the lateral distance between the two sockets 42 . Figure 8 The middle lateral width W1 generally corresponds to the width between the two stoppers 1102 .
[0124] In some embodiments, when the lateral width of the box body 100 is smaller than the lateral distance between the two sockets 42 , the two connection ends 22 may extend outward from the left side plate 1033 and the right side plate 1034 , respectively.
[0125] Figure 9 Variations of the guide structure 111 are shown. In some embodiments, the guide structure 111, for example, includes one or more couplings 1103 attached to the side panels 103, the couplings 1103 defining a channel 110 for the restraint belt 200 to pass through. In some embodiments, the couplings 1103 can be made of metal, plastic, or other suitable materials. One or more couplings 1103 can be arranged on one or more of the front side panel 1031, the rear side panel 1032, the left side panel 1033, and the right side panel 1034 as needed. In some embodiments, the couplings 1103 can be connected to the case 110 to form a closed loop. In some embodiments, the couplings 1103 can be, for example, hook-shaped or C-shaped.
[0126] Figure 10Another variation of the guide structure 111 is shown. The guide structure 111, for example, includes two engaging members 1103 disposed on the rear side plate 1032 and spaced laterally apart. The two connecting ends 22 pass through the corresponding engaging members 1103 before exiting the box 100. The two engaging members 1103 are, for example, disposed bilaterally symmetrically on the rear side plate 1032. The lateral distance between the two engaging members 1103 corresponds to the lateral width W1.
[0127] In some embodiments, the guide structure 111 may include, for example, a joint piece 1103 disposed in the transverse middle position of the rear side plate 1032 , and the two connecting ends 22 cross through the channel 110 of the joint piece 1103 and then extend obliquely downward.
[0128] Figure 11 A box fixing structure 1000 according to a third embodiment of the present invention is schematically illustrated. The box fixing structure 1000 includes a box 100, a restraining strap 200, and an adjuster 300. Unless otherwise specified, the box 100 may be described with reference to the first embodiment. For example, the box 100 includes a bottom plate 101, a top plate 102, a front side plate 1031, a rear side plate 1032, a left side plate 1033, and a right side plate 1034. Unless otherwise specified, the restraining strap 200 may be described with reference to the first embodiment. For example, the restraining strap 200 may include a first sub-strap 210 and two second sub-straps 220. The restraining strap 200 is Y-shaped overall. The first end of the first sub-strap 210 corresponds to the adjustment end 21 of the restraining strap 200, and the second end of the first sub-strap 210 connects to the first ends of the two second sub-straps 220. The second ends of the two second sub-straps 220 correspond to the two connecting ends 22, each of which is provided with an anchor 26. In the case of no conflict, the adjuster 300 may refer to the adjuster 300 in the first embodiment.
[0129] See also Figure 11 In some embodiments, the adjuster 300 can be installed on the front side of the top plate 102 of the box body 100. The restraint belt 200 corresponds to the top plate 102 and the rear side plate 1032 of the box body 100, and the two connecting ends 22 extend from the top plate 102 to the rear and lower part of the rear side plate 1032. More specifically, the first sub-belt 210 is connected to the adjuster 300 in an adjustable position. The first ends of the two second sub-belts 220 can be connected to the second end of the first sub-belt 210 above the top plate 102 or behind the rear side plate 1032. The second ends of the two second sub-belts 220 extend toward the rear and lower part of the box body 100 and can be connected to the corresponding sockets 42 through the anchors 26.
[0130] In some embodiments, the entire rear side plate 1034 can be made of a hard material. In some embodiments, the adjuster 300 can be disposed on the front side plate 1031 , for example, near the top plate 102 .
[0131] Figure 12 A schematic diagram illustrates a box-mounted fixing structure 1000 according to a fourth embodiment of the present invention. This box-mounted fixing structure 1000 is a variation of the box-mounted fixing structure 1000 provided in the third embodiment. Unless otherwise specified, the components and inter-component relationships of this embodiment's box-mounted fixing structure 1000 can be referenced from the description of the third embodiment. The following primarily describes the differences between this embodiment and the third embodiment.
[0132] See also Figure 12 The restraint belt 200 forms an annular structure 201, and the box 100 is restrained within the annular structure 201. The anchor 26 is located near the bottom of the box 100. More specifically, the restraint belt includes a first sub-belt 210 and two second sub-belts 220, as well as a third sub-belt 230 and two fourth sub-belts 240. The first end of the third sub-belt 230 is connected to the first end of the two fourth sub-belts 240. The second ends of the two fourth sub-belts 240 are connected to the two second sub-belts 220 to form the annular structure 201 that restrains the box 100. The third sub-belt 230 and the two fourth sub-belts 240 are routed around the front side panel 1031 and the bottom panel 101 of the box 100. The connection point between each fourth sub-belt 240 and the corresponding third sub-belt 230 is close to the anchor 26.
[0133] In some embodiments, the adjuster 300 may include the lock 310 of the first embodiment, and the first sub-band 210 and the third sub-band 230 have a lock 312 (see FIG. Figure 3 ) and the channel wall 3111 of the locking channel 311. When the locking member 312 is in the locked state, the locking member 312 presses the stacked first sub-strap 210 and third sub-strap 230 against the channel wall 3111 of the locking channel 311, thereby locking the position of the restraint strap 200. When the user pulls the adjustment end 21, the first sub-strap 210 and the third sub-strap 230 can simultaneously slide relative to the locking channel 311, causing the annular structure 201 to shrink and tightly embrace the box body 100. Of course, in other embodiments, the adjuster 300 can also have other implementations.
[0134] It should be noted that although in the above embodiment, the user tightens the restraint belt 200 by manually operating the adjustment end 21, the method of tightening the restraint belt 200 is not limited to this. For example, in some embodiments, the adjustment end 21 can be wound around a reel, and the restraint belt 200 can be tightened or loosened by electrically controlling the rotation direction of the reel.
[0135] The box-mounted securing structure provided by the present invention only requires that the length of the restraint strap 200 between the adjuster 300 and the anchor 26 be adjustable to prevent the restraint strap 200 from loosening between the box 100 and the anchor point. In some embodiments, the restraint strap 200 may not have a dedicated adjustment end 21. In some embodiments, the first sub-strap 210 is also not required.
[0136] In the above embodiment, the box fixing structure provided by the embodiment of the present invention is described. However, it should be noted that the box fixing structure can also be provided as a load-bearing device. The following will list the embodiments of the load-bearing device provided by the present invention and combine them with Figures 13 to 53 Provide explanation.
[0137] For ease of understanding, Figures 13 to 53 In the figures, arrow F indicates forward, arrow B indicates backward, arrow L indicates left, and arrow R indicates right. These directional terms are only used to make the description of the embodiments of the present invention clearer and are not used to improperly limit the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0138] Fifth embodiment
[0139] Figures 13 to 15 A perspective view of a carrying device 1000A (eg, an animal carrying device or other types of carrying devices) provided in accordance with a fifth embodiment is shown. Figure 13 and Figure 14 , LATCH structure 300A is in use. Figure 15 , the LATCH structure 300A is in a non-use state (or a storage state).
[0140] like Figures 13 to 15As shown, the carrying device 1000A includes a main body 100A, which can be but is not limited to a pet box, a pet carrier, a pet bag, etc. When the carrying device 1000A is an animal carrying device, the main body 100A has a carrying space for accommodating animals. The main body 100A can be an integrally molded part, or the main body 100A can be assembled from multiple parts. In some embodiments, the main body 100A can be divided into a bottom 101A and an upper part 102A installed above the bottom 101A. The bottom 101A can be made of a hard material, for example, to support the upper part 102A. The upper part 102A may include a piece of fabric and other materials that enclose the carrying space. A LATCH structure 300A is provided on the back of the bottom 101A, and the LATCH structure 300A can be detachably connected to the ISOFIX structure (or anchoring structure) on the car seat. More specifically, the LATCH structure 300A includes, for example, at least one connector 31, each of which can engage with an ISOFIX connection point on a car seat. In this embodiment, the LATCH structure 300A includes two connectors 31. One end of each connector 31 is pivotally connected to the base 101A, for example, via a pivot (not shown). Each connector 31 rotates left and right about the pivot, allowing the LATCH structure 300A to have an engaged state and an inactive state.
[0141] When the LATCH structure 300A is in use, each connector 31 pivots out of the body 100A to a use position, allowing the other end of each connector 31 to connect with an ISOFIX connection point on the vehicle seat. When the LATCH structure 300A is not in use, each connector 31 pivots toward the body 100A to a non-use position (also known as a stowed position).
[0142] The back of the base 101A has at least one receiving space 1010 for accommodating the connector 31. In this embodiment, the back of the base 101A has two receiving spaces 1010, located on the left and right sides of the back of the base 101A. These two receiving spaces 1010 correspond to the two connectors 31. When the LATCH mechanism 300A is not in use, each connector 31 pivots to a stowed position and is stored within its corresponding receiving space 1010. For example, when stowed, the outer side of the LATCH mechanism 300A is substantially flush with the outer side of the base 101A.
[0143] Each connector 31 can be locked in the stowed position by any suitable locking mechanism. The LATCH structure 300A may also include a spring to drive each connector 31 toward the use position. The spring is, for example, disposed between each connector 31 and the base 101A. When the LATCH structure 300A is in use, each connector 31 is released, and the spring's reaction force causes each connector 31 to automatically pop out.
[0144] In this embodiment, the two connecting members 31 rotate horizontally in opposite directions to rotate from the storage position to the use position, or vice versa. The rotation angle of the two connecting members 31 is no greater than 90 degrees. In some alternative embodiments, the two connecting members 31 can rotate horizontally in the same direction to switch between the use position and the storage position.
[0145] In some embodiments, the LATCH structure 300A may include two or more connectors 31, and the number of accommodating spaces 1010 may be correspondingly two or more. The two or more connectors 31 may be connected to two or more connection points of the ISOFIX structure on the car seat.
[0146] Sixth embodiment
[0147] Figure 16 and Figure 17 A perspective view of a carrying device 1000A (eg, an animal carrying device or other types of carrying devices) provided in accordance with a sixth embodiment is shown. The carrying device 1000A includes a body 100A. When the carrying device 1000A is an animal carrying device, the body 100A has a carrying space for accommodating an animal.
[0148] A connecting seat 600 can be additionally configured between the main body 100A and the car seat. The connecting seat 600 has a LATCH structure 300A, and the LATCH structure 300A can be connected to the ISOFIX structure of the car. More specifically, the LATCH structure 300A includes, for example, at least one connector 31, and each connector 31 can be connected to a connection point of the ISOFIX structure on the car seat. In this embodiment, the LATCH structure 300A includes two connectors 31. One end of each connector 31 is pivotally connected to the connecting seat 600, for example, by a pivot (not shown in the figure). Each connector 31 can extend relative to the connecting seat 600 or approach the connecting seat 600 by horizontal rotation in the same direction or opposite directions, so that the LATCH structure 300A has a use state and a non-use state (or a storage state).
[0149] The back of the connection base 600 may have an accommodating space 610 . When the LATCH structure 300A is not in use, each connector 31 may be stored in the accommodating space 610 of the connection base 600 .
[0150] In this embodiment, the main body 100A may have a retracted space 110A, in which a hard rod 112 may be provided. The hard rod 112 may be, for example, a metal rod. The connecting seat 600 is separated from the main body 100A, and the connecting seat 600 has a snap-fit structure 220A. The snap-fit structure 220A may include, for example, a hook. The snap-fit structure 220A may be detachably connected to the rod 112 on the main body 100A, so that the main body 100A is fixed to the car seat through the detachable connecting seat 600. When the supporting device 1000A is in use, the snap-fit structure 220A is locked on the rod 112, and the connecting member 31 is connected to the connection point of the ISOFIX structure of the car seat.
[0151] The connection base 600 may further include a release device (not shown) for releasing the locking mechanism 220A from locking the rod 112. When the locking mechanism 220A is released from locking the rod 112, the body 100A may be separated from the connection base 600.
[0152] In some alternative embodiments, the connecting base 600 is slidably connected to the bottom 101A of the main body 100A so that the connecting base 600 has a use position and a storage position. For example, the bottom of the main body 100A can be provided with a receiving cavity. When the connecting base 600 is in the storage position, the connecting base 600 is received in the receiving cavity and can be locked in the storage position. After the connecting base 600 is released, the connecting base 600 can extend horizontally backward from the receiving cavity and can be locked in the use position when the connecting base 600 reaches the use position. Afterwards, the main body 100A can be connected to the ISOFIX structure of the car seat through the LATCH structure 300A on the connecting base 600.
[0153] In some alternative embodiments, the connection base 600 is pivotally connected to the bottom 101A of the body 100A so that the connection base 600 has a use position and a storage position. When the connection base 600 is in the storage position, the connection base 600 pivots to a position that is in contact with the back or bottom surface of the body 100A. When the connection base 600 is in the use position, the connection base 600 pivots to a horizontal position, at which point the connection base 600 extends backward from the body 100A. Thereafter, the body 100A can be connected to the ISOFIX structure of the car seat via the LATCH structure 300A on the connection base 600.
[0154] Seventh embodiment
[0155] Figures 18 to 21 A perspective view of a carrying device 1000A (eg, an animal carrying device or other types of carrying devices) provided in accordance with a seventh embodiment is shown. Figure 18 and Figure 19, LATCH structure 300A is in use. Figure 20 , the LATCH structure 300A is in a non-use state (or a storage state).
[0156] The carrier 1000A includes a body 100A. When used as an animal carrier, the body 100A has a carrying space for the animal. The bottom 101A of the body 100A includes a LATCH structure 300A. The LATCH structure 300A is located on the back of the bottom 101A and can be removably connected to the ISOFIX structure on a car seat.
[0157] The LATCH structure 300A, for example, includes at least one connector 31, each of which can be engaged and fixed with a connection point of the ISOFIX structure on the car seat. In this embodiment, the LATCH structure 300A includes two connectors 31. One end of each connector 31 is pivotally connected to the bottom 101A, for example, via a pivot (not shown in the figure). Each connector 31 can be rotated up and down around the pivot, so that the LATCH structure 300A has an in-use state and a non-use state. When the LATCH structure 300A is in the in-use state, each connector 31 can extend out of the main body 100A and reach the in-use position, so that the other end of each connector 31 can be connected to a connection point of the ISOFIX structure on the car seat. When the LATCH structure 300A is not in the in-use state, each connector 31 can be moved closer to the main body 100A and reach the non-use position (also known as the storage position).
[0158] For example, the back of the bottom 101A has at least one accommodating space 1010, which is used to accommodate the connector 31. In this embodiment, the back of the bottom 101A has two accommodating spaces 1010 spaced apart in the left-right direction, and the two accommodating spaces 1010 extend upward from the bottom surface of the body 100A. The two accommodating spaces 1010 are substantially the same height and can be parallel to each other. The two accommodating spaces 1010 correspond to the two connectors 31. When the LATCH structure 300A is not in use, each connector 31 rotates about the pivot to a storage position and is stored in the corresponding accommodating space 1010. For example, the outer side of the LATCH structure 300A after storage can be flush with the outer side of the bottom 101A, or concave relative to the outer side of the bottom 101A, or convex relative to the outer side of the bottom 101A.
[0159] The accommodating space 1010 can be integrally formed with the bottom 101A, or can be two accommodating spaces independent of the bottom 101A. When the accommodating space 1010 is integrally formed with the bottom 101A, the accommodating space 1010 can be a semi-open space extending upward from the surface of the bottom 101A.
[0160] Each connector 31 can be locked in the stowed position by any suitable locking mechanism. The LATCH structure 300A may also include a spring to drive each connector 31 toward the use position. The spring is, for example, disposed between each connector 31 and the base 101A. When the LATCH structure 300A is in use, each connector 31 is released, and the spring's reaction force causes each connector 31 to automatically pop out.
[0161] In this embodiment, the two connectors 31 are vertically rotated in a first direction (from top to bottom) to a use position, with a rotation angle of, for example, 90-180 degrees. When the LATCH structure 300A is not in use, the two connectors 31 can be vertically rotated in a second direction (from bottom to top) to a storage position, where the two connectors 31 are stored in the accommodating space 1010. The first direction is opposite to the second direction.
[0162] Eighth embodiment
[0163] Figure 22 FIG. 1 shows a top perspective view of a carrying device 1000A (eg, an animal carrying device or other types of carrying devices) provided in an eighth embodiment. Figure 23 A perspective view showing the carrying device 1000A placed on a car seat is shown. Figure 24 and Figure 25 A bottom perspective view of the carrier device 1000A is shown.
[0164] The carrying device 1000A includes a main body 100A. When the carrying device 1000A is an animal carrying device, the main body 100A has a carrying space for accommodating an animal. The carrying device 1000A has two rails 120. The two rails 120 are arranged in a perpendicular and parallel manner on the front or back of the main body 100A. In this embodiment, the two rails 120 are arranged on the back of the main body 100A.
[0165] The carrying device 1000A further includes a hard rod 121 , which is arranged on the same surface of the body 100A as the rail 120 . Both ends of the rod 121 are slidably engaged with the two rails 120 so as to be able to move up and down in the rails 120 .
[0166] The track 120 (e.g., inside the track 120) may be provided with a locking device (not shown) that is used to lock the position of the rod 121. When the locking device is in the locked state, the rod 121 is locked at a predetermined height of the track 120 and cannot move up or down. When the locking device is in the unlocked state, the locking device releases the lock on the rod 121, allowing the rod 121 to move up and down along the track 120.
[0167] The carrier device 1000A further includes a LATCH structure 300A, which can be detachably connected to the ISOFIX structure on the car seat 900. More specifically, the LATCH structure 300A includes, for example, at least one connector 31, each of which can be connected to an ISOFIX connection point on the car seat. In this embodiment, the LATCH structure 300A includes two connectors 31.
[0168] The LATCH structure 300A also includes two webbings 32 connected to two connectors 31. For example, the connectors 31 include connection holes 310A, through which the webbings 32 pass, allowing the connectors 31 to slide along the webbings 32. A first end 321 of the webbings 32 is connected to the rod 121, and a second end 322 of the webbings 32 can pass through a locking mechanism 33 fixed to the back or bottom surface of the body 100A and extend toward the front of the body 100A. The locking mechanism 33 is, for example, an A-lock.
[0169] When the locking mechanism 33 is in the locked state, the webbing 32 is locked. At this time, the length of the webbing 32 between the first end 321 and the locking mechanism 33 can be shortened by pulling the second end 322 of the webbing 32. However, the length of the webbing 32 between the first end 321 and the locking mechanism 33 cannot be lengthened by moving the body 100A forward. When the locking mechanism 33 is in the unlocked state, the locking mechanism 33 releases the lock on the webbing 32.
[0170] When the locking mechanism 33 is disposed near the front side of the bottom 101A of the body 100A, a guide structure 34 may be disposed on the rear side of the bottom 101A of the body 100A, and the second end 322 of the webbing 32 may pass through the guide structure 34 and then through the locking mechanism 33. The guide structure 34 may include, for example, a recess 341 disposed at the bottom of the body 100A and a support rod 342 mounted in the recess 341, and the webbing 32 may be routed around the support rod 342.
[0171] When the support device 1000A is in use, the connector 31 is connected to the connection point of the car seat's ISOFIX structure, and the locking mechanism 33 is locked. The webbing 32 can then be configured to be taut by moving the rod 121 upward. This way, with the two connectors 21 connected to the two connection points of the car seat's ISOFIX structure, and the connection point between the first end 321 of the webbing 32 and the rod 121 facing away from the car seat surface, the body 100A is subjected to tension from the angled portion of the webbing 32 between the first end 321 and the connector 21. This tension prevents the body 100A from rolling or twisting in the event of an unexpected vehicle collision.
[0172] To detach the connector 31 from the ISOFIX structure of the car seat, the rod 121 is moved downward to loosen the webbing 32, making it easier for the LATCH structure 300A to detach from the ISOFIX structure of the car seat. Alternatively, the webbing 32 can be loosened by releasing the locking mechanism 33, making it easier for the LATCH structure 300A to detach from the ISOFIX structure of the car seat.
[0173] In some embodiments, the main body 100A is further provided with a accommodating space (not shown in the figure), which can be set on the same surface of the main body 100A as the track 120. The accommodating space can accommodate the connector 31 or the entire LATCH structure 300A.
[0174] Ninth embodiment
[0175] Figure 26 FIG. 1 shows a rear perspective view of a carrying device 1000A (eg, an animal carrying device or other types of carrying devices) provided in a ninth embodiment. Figure 27 shows a front perspective view of the carrying device 1000A, Figure 28 A bottom perspective view of the carrier device 1000A is shown.
[0176] The carrying device 1000A includes a main body 100A. When the carrying device 1000A is an animal carrying device, the main body 100A has a carrying space for accommodating an animal. At least one guide structure 131 and at least one locking mechanism 33 are provided on the back of the main body 100A. The locking mechanism 33 is, for example, located near the bottom surface of the main body 100A, with the guide structure 131 being higher than the locking mechanism 33. The guide structure 131 may comprise a C-shaped member, for example, and the locking mechanism 33 may be an A-lock. For example, there may be two guide structures 131 and two locking mechanisms 33.
[0177] The carrier device 1000A further includes a LATCH structure 300A, which can be removably connected to the ISOFIX structure on the car seat 900. More specifically, the LATCH structure 300A includes, for example, at least one connector 31, each of which can engage with an ISOFIX connection point on the car seat. In this embodiment, the LATCH structure 300A includes two connectors 31.
[0178] LATCH structure 300A also includes a webbing 32 connected to connector 31. The ends of webbing 32 pass through corresponding guide structures 131 and locking mechanisms 33 before being connected to the two connectors 31. A middle portion 323 of webbing 32 is provided for user lifting. When the locking mechanism 33 is in the locked state, webbing 32 is locked. Pulling on middle portion 323 of webbing 32 allows the webbing 32 to be shortened, thereby tightening, but does not allow the webbing 32 to be lengthened, by moving body 100A forward. When the locking mechanism 33 is in the unlocked state, the webbing 32 is released. In some embodiments, webbing 32 can be disconnected from middle portion 323.
[0179] The webbing 32 may be provided with an adjuster 34A, which can adjust the length of the webbing 32. The adjuster 34A is located between the locking mechanism 33 and the connector 31, for example.
[0180] When the LATCH structure 300A is in use, the middle portion 323 of the webbing 32 can be secured around the headrest of the car seat. When the car is hit, the headrest end of the car seat and the two ISOFIX connection points prevent the body 100A from twisting or rolling.
[0181] In some alternative embodiments, the body 100A has a receiving space (not shown in the figure), the wall of which can be formed of a hard material, and the receiving space can be set on the bottom surface of the body 100A, and the receiving space is communicated with the outer side surface of the body 100A. The body 100A can further include two extensions (not shown in the drawings of this embodiment, please refer to the tenth embodiment for details). Figure 29 The extension 14 in the body 100A) extends upward from the bottom surface of the body 100A. The extension can be a semi-open channel or a hollow channel. The extension has an upper opening close to the top surface of the body 100A. The LATCH structure 300A is connected to the body 100A. The LATCH structure 300A has a webbing 32. The webbing 32 can extend in the accommodating space and the extension, and extend out of the body 100A through the upper opening of the extension. The LATCH structure 300A includes at least one connector 31 connected to the webbing 32. For example, the LATCH structure 300A includes two connectors 31. The connection relationship between the two connectors 31 and the webbing 32 can refer to Figure 26As shown in the figure, two connectors 31 are located at both ends of the same webbing 32, and the middle part of the webbing 32 extends out of the main body 100A through the upper opening of the extension. When the LATCH structure 300A is in use, the connector 31 extends outside the accommodating space and is connected to the connection point of the ISOFIX structure on the car seat. When the LATCH structure 300A is not in use, the connector 31 is disconnected from the connection point of the ISOFIX structure of the car seat, and the connector 31 can be stored in the accommodating space. The accommodating space or the extension may further include a locking mechanism (such as A-lock) for locking or releasing the webbing 32. When the LATCH structure 300A is in use, by pulling the webbing 32 extending out of the upper opening, the part of the webbing 32 between the connector 31 and the locking mechanism is tensioned, and the webbing 32 is locked by the locking mechanism. When the extension is a semi-open channel, a guide structure (such as a guide similar to Figure 26 The guide structure 131 in the middle enables the webbing 32 to be maintained in the extension portion to avoid falling off.
[0182] Tenth embodiment
[0183] Figure 29 A rear perspective view of a carrying device 1000A (eg, an animal carrying device or other types of carrying devices) provided in accordance with a tenth embodiment is shown, wherein the LATCH structure 300A is in use. Figure 30 Another rear perspective view of the carrying device 1000A is shown, in which the LATCH structure 300A is in a non-use state (or a stored state). Figure 31 Shown Figure 30 A rear view of the carrier device 1000A is shown. Figure 32 A front perspective view of the carrier device 1000A is shown.
[0184] The tenth embodiment is similar in concept to the ninth embodiment, and the differences between this embodiment and the ninth embodiment are mainly described below. The main body 100A includes a accommodating space. The accommodating space may include two independent extensions 14, and the extensions 14 extend from the bottom surface to the top surface of the main body 100A. The extensions may be hollow channels formed inside the main body or semi-open channels formed on the back of the main body 100A, and have a top opening and a bottom opening. In addition, two locking mechanisms 33 may be provided in the two extensions 14, and the two locking mechanisms 33 are, for example, higher than the bottom surface of the main body 100A. As described in the ninth embodiment, the locking mechanism 33 is, for example, an A-lock. The LATCH structure 300A includes a webbing 32, and the two ends of the webbing 32 enter the two extensions 14 from the top openings of the two extensions 14, pass downward through the corresponding locking mechanisms 33, and are connected to the two connectors 31.
[0185] As described in the ninth embodiment, when the extension portion is a semi-open channel, a guide structure (such as a guide structure similar to Figure 26 The guiding structure 131 in the extension portion allows the webbing 32 to be maintained in the extension portion to avoid falling off. Of course, the guiding structure may not be provided.
[0186] When the LATCH structure 300A is in use, the locking mechanism 33 is released, the two connectors 31 are pulled out of the extension 14, and then the two connectors 31 are connected to the two connection points of the car seat's ISOFIX structure. The middle portion 323 of the webbing 32 is then pulled, shortening the length of the webbing 32 between the locking mechanism 33 and the connector 21, thereby tightening the webbing 32. The locking mechanism 33 locks the webbing 32, preventing the portion of the webbing 32 between the locking mechanism 33 and the connector 21 from lengthening and slackening. The middle portion 323 of the webbing 32 can be looped around and secured to the headrest of the car seat. In the event of a collision, the car seat headrest and the two connection points of the ISOFIX structure prevent the body 100A from twisting or rolling.
[0187] When the LATCH structure 300A is not in use, the connector 31 is separated from the ISOFIX structure of the car seat. At this time, the connector 31 can be stored in the extension portion 14 from the bottom opening of the extension portion 14 by pulling the middle portion 323 of the webbing.
[0188] Eleventh embodiment
[0189] Figure 33 A rear perspective view of a carrying device 1000A (eg, an animal carrying device or other types of carrying devices) provided in accordance with an eleventh embodiment is shown. Figure 34 A front bottom view of the carrying device 1000A is shown, in which the male buckle 351 and the female buckle 352 of the magnetic buckle mechanism 35 are buckled together. Figure 35 A rear bottom view of the carrying device 1000A is shown, with the male buckle 351 and the female buckle 352 of the magnetic buckle mechanism 35 separated. Figure 36 Shown Figure 35 A front view of the carrier device 1000A is shown.
[0190] The carrying device 1000A includes a main body 100A. When the carrying device 1000A is an animal carrying device, the main body 100A has a carrying space for accommodating an animal. The main body 100A is connected and fixed to the ISOFIX structure of the car seat through the LATCH structure 300A. The LATCH structure 300A includes at least one connector 31, and each connector 31 can be engaged with the ISOFIX structure on the car seat. The LATCH structure 300A also includes at least one webbing 32, and the at least one connector 31 is connected to the main body 100A through at least one webbing 32. In the figure, the LATCH structure 300A includes two connectors 31 and two webbings 32. The two webbings 32 are mounted on the main body 100A, so that the LATCH structure 300A can be separated from the main body 100A.
[0191] The webbing 32 is provided with a magnetic clasp mechanism 35. More specifically, the webbing 32 includes a first webbing segment 321A and a second webbing segment 322A. The first and second webbing segments 321A, 322A define a ring structure that fits over the body 100A. One end of the first webbing segment 321A is adjustably connected to the second webbing segment 322A via an adjuster 324. One end of the second webbing segment 322A is connected to the connector 31. The adjuster 324 is located between the back of the body 100A and the connector 31. The other end of the first webbing segment 321A is detachably connected to the other end of the second webbing segment 322A via a magnetic clasp mechanism 35.
[0192] The magnetic clasp mechanism 35, for example, includes a male clasp 351 and a female clasp 352. The male clasp 351 connects to one of the first and second webbing segments 321A and 322A, while the female clasp 352 connects to the other of the first and second webbing segments 321A and 322A. The male clasp 351 has a protruding structure 3511, while the female clasp 352 includes a cavity 3520 that engages with the protruding structure 3511 of the male clasp 351. The protruding structure 3511 is provided with a groove 3510. The female clasp 352 also includes a locking mechanism 3521 that engages with the groove 3510 within the cavity 3520. The groove 3510 can be a partially or fully annular structure.
[0193] The female buckle 352 is further provided with a release strap 353, which is operably connected to the locking mechanism 3521. Specifically, when the release strap 353 is pulled, the locking mechanism 3521 is disengaged from the groove 3510 of the male buckle 351, further separating the male buckle 351 from the female buckle 352. The locking mechanism 3521 may include a magnetic device, such as a magnetic device provided on the male buckle 351 (e.g., the outer protrusion 3511). The magnetic devices of the male buckle 351 and the locking mechanism 3521 attract each other, further strengthening the fastening connection between the male buckle 351 and the female buckle 352.
[0194] When the male and female buckles 351, 352 of the magnetic closure mechanism 35 are engaged, the webbing 32 wraps around the body 100A, with the magnetic closure mechanism 35 located on the front of the body 100A. For example, the first webbing segment 321A of the webbing 32 extends from the top to the back of the body 100A, while the second webbing segment 322A extends from the bottom to the back of the body 100A. Separating the male and female buckles 351, 352 of the magnetic closure mechanism 35 allows for easy separation of the body 100A from the LATCH structure 300A.
[0195] Twelfth embodiment
[0196] Figure 37 A rear top view of a carrying device 1000A (eg, an animal carrying device or other types of carrying devices) provided in accordance with a twelfth embodiment is shown. Figure 38 A front top view of the carrier device 1000A is shown. Figure 39 A rear bottom view of the carrier device 1000A is shown. Figure 40 A rear view of the carrier device 1000A is shown.
[0197] The carrying device 1000A includes a main body 100A. When used as an animal carrying device, the main body 100A has a carrying space for accommodating an animal. A fixing device 400A is provided on one side of the main body 100A. This fixing device 400A can be integrally formed with the main body 100A or detachable. This fixing device has a plurality of engaging grooves 41 disposed perpendicularly on the outer side of the fixing device 400A. These engaging grooves 41 can engage with the handle 81 of the luggage case 800.
[0198] The engaging groove 41 further includes an engaging structure (not shown) adapted to handles 81 of varying thicknesses and / or widths W. The engaging structure, engaged with the handle 81, prevents the securing device 400A from separating from the handle 81. With the securing device 400A securely connected to the handle 81 of the luggage case 800, the luggage body 100A can be securely placed above the luggage case 800, effectively reducing shaking and preventing separation of the luggage body 100A from the luggage case 800.
[0199] The carrying device 1000A further includes a LATCH structure 300A. The structure of the LATCH structure 300A and the connection method with the main body 100A can refer to the LATCH structure 300A and the connection method with the main body 100A described in the fifth to tenth embodiments.
[0200] In this embodiment, the LATCH structure 300A is connected to the fixing device 400A. The connection method between the two can be similar to the connection method between the LATCH structure 300A and the body 100A in the ninth embodiment. Specifically, the LATCH structure 300A includes a webbing 32 and two connectors 31. The fixing device 400A can be equipped with a guide structure 131 and a locking mechanism 33. The ends of the webbing 32 pass through the corresponding guide structure 131 and locking mechanism 33, and then connect to the two connectors 31. Each connector 31 can be connected to two connection points of the ISOFIX structure on the car seat. The middle portion 323 of the webbing 32 can be pulled by the user.
[0201] Furthermore, when the carrier 1000A is secured to a car seat, in addition to being connected to the ISOFIX system via connector 31, the middle portion 323 of the webbing 32 can also be secured to the headrest of the car seat, thereby increasing the stability of the body 100A. When the carrier 1000A is secured to the luggage case 800, the middle portion 323 of the webbing 32 can be looped over the handle 81.
[0202] Thirteenth embodiment
[0203] Figure 41 A rear top view of a carrying device 1000A (eg, an animal carrying device or other types of carrying devices) provided in the thirteenth embodiment is shown, in which the male buckle 361 and the female buckle 362 of the magnetic buckle mechanism 36 are buckled together. Figure 42 A front top view of the carrier device 1000A is shown. Figure 43 A side view of the carrying device 1000A is shown, in which the male buckle 361 and the female buckle 362 of the magnetic buckle mechanism 36 are buckled together. Figure 44 A rear bottom view of the carrying device 1000A is shown, with the male buckle 361 and the female buckle 362 of the magnetic buckle mechanism 36 separated. Figure 45 Another side view of the carrying device 1000A is shown, in which the male buckle 361 and the female buckle 362 of the magnetic buckle mechanism 36 are separated.
[0204] The carrying device 1000A includes a main body 100A. When the carrying device 1000A is an animal carrying device, the main body 100A has a carrying space for accommodating an animal. The carrying device 1000A also includes a LATCH structure 300A, which is connected and fixed to the ISOFIX structure of the car seat. For example, the LATCH structure 300A includes at least one connector 31, and each connector 31 can be connected to a connection point of the ISOFIX structure on the car seat. The main body 100A and the LATCH structure 300A are quickly connected or disconnected via a magnetic buckle mechanism 36, which is relatively convenient to operate. The magnetic buckle mechanism 36 includes a male buckle 361 and a female buckle 362. One of the male buckle 361 and the female buckle 362 is arranged on the outer surface of the main body 100A, and the other is arranged on the LATCH structure 300A.
[0205] One or more magnetic buckle mechanisms 36 may be provided between the body 100A and the LATCH structure 300A. Unless otherwise specified, the structures of the male buckle 361 and female buckle 362 of the magnetic buckle mechanism 36 may refer to the structures of the male buckle 351 and female buckle 352 of the magnetic buckle mechanism 35 in the thirteenth embodiment.
[0206] Specifically, the male buckle 361 has a protruding structure 3611, and the female buckle 362 includes a cavity 3620 for engaging with the protruding structure 3611 of the male buckle 361. The protruding structure 3611 is provided with a groove 3610. The female buckle 362 also includes a locking mechanism 3621 that engages with the groove 3610 within the cavity 3620. The groove 3610 can be a partially or fully annular structure. The female buckle 362 also includes a release strap 363 that is operably connected to the locking mechanism 3621. Specifically, when the release strap 363 is pulled, the locking mechanism 3621 disengages from the groove 3610 of the male buckle 361, allowing the male buckle 361 and female buckle 362 to further separate. The two female buckles 362 are connected to two ends of the same unlocking belt 363 , for example, so that when the unlocking belt 363 is pulled, the two magnetic buckle mechanisms 36 can be unlocked synchronously.
[0207] The locking mechanism 3621 may include a magnetic device, and the male buckle 361 (such as the protruding structure 3611) may be provided with a magnetic device. The magnetic devices of the male buckle 361 and the locking mechanism 3621 attract each other, thereby further strengthening the connection between the male buckle 361 and the female buckle 362.
[0208] In this embodiment, two magnetic snap mechanisms 36 are provided between the body 100A and the LATCH structure 300A. Two female snaps 362 are provided on the outer side (e.g., the rear) of the body 100A, and two male snaps 361 are provided on the LATCH structure 300A. The LATCH structure 300A includes two connectors 31, which are connected to the two male snaps 361 via two webbings 32. In some embodiments, the two male snaps 361 can be connected by a connecting strap 325.
[0209] The two female snaps 362 are disposed parallel to each other on the outer side of the body 100A and away from the bottom surface of the body 100A. In some embodiments, the outer side of the body 100A may be provided with a slide groove or slide rail 15A. This slide groove or slide rail 15A may be located on the same side of the body 100A as the two female snaps 362. The two female snaps 362 can slide along the slide groove or slide rail 15A to adjust their relative position.
[0210] When the carrier device 1000A is in use, the LATCH structure 300A is connected to the body 100A via the magnetic fastening mechanism 36 and to two connection points of the ISOFIX structure of the car seat via two connectors 31. The distance between the two female buckles 362 is, for example, greater than or equal to the distance between the two connection points of the ISOFIX structure of the car seat.
[0211] In addition, when the supporting device 1000A is in use, the connecting belt 325 can be fixed around the headrest of the car seat. When the car is hit, the body 100A can be prevented from twisting or rolling by fixing it at the headrest end of the car seat and the two connection points of the ISOFIX structure.
[0212] Fourteenth embodiment
[0213] Figure 46 The fourteenth embodiment shows a perspective view of a main body 100A of a carrying device 1000A (eg, an animal carrying device or other types of carrying devices) installed on a luggage case 800 but not connected to the luggage case 800 . Figure 47 Shown Figure 46 A top view of the body 100A and the luggage case 800 is shown. Figure 48 A perspective view showing the connection between the main body 100A and the luggage case 800 is shown.
[0214] Unless otherwise specified, the structure of the body 100A in this embodiment can refer to the description of the thirteenth embodiment. More specifically, when the carrying device 1000A is an animal carrying device, the body 100A has a carrying space for accommodating an animal. The outer side of the body 100A is provided with two buckles, such as female buckles 362. The two female buckles 362 can slide along the slide groove or rail 15A to adjust the relative position of the body 100A. The specific structure of the female buckles 362 is not further described.
[0215] This embodiment also provides a magnetic buckle adjustment mechanism 500 , which includes two buckles 51 and an adjustment mechanism 52 .
[0216] The two fasteners 51 are, for example, male buckles, which are used to fasten with the female buckle 362. The male buckle may have a protruding structure 511, which is used to engage with the cavity 3620 of the female buckle 362. The protruding structure 511 is provided with a groove 510, and the locking mechanism 3621 of the female buckle 362 can engage with the groove 510 within the cavity 3620. The female buckle 362 is also provided with a release strip 363, which is operably connected to the locking mechanism 3621. The groove 510 can be a partial or full annular structure. The locking mechanism 3621 can include a magnetic device, and the male buckle (e.g., the protruding structure 511) can be provided with a magnetic device. The magnetic devices of the male buckle and the locking mechanism 3621 attract each other, further strengthening the fastening of the fastener 51 and the female buckle 362. Of course, in some alternative embodiments, the buckle 51 may be a female buckle, and the buckle on the body 100A may be a male buckle.
[0217] The two buckles 51 are connected by an adjustment mechanism 52. The adjustment mechanism 52 allows for further adjustment of the relative distance between the two buckles 51. The magnetic buckle adjustment mechanism 500 (adjustment mechanism 52 or the two buckles 51) can be connected (e.g., removably connected) to the two parallel rods of the handle 81 of the luggage case 800. By adjusting the relative distance between the two buckles 51 using the adjustment mechanism 52, the distance between the two buckles 51 can be adapted to the width W of the handle 81 of different luggage cases.
[0218] With reference to the description in the thirteenth embodiment, the buckle 51 of the magnetic buckle adjustment mechanism 500 can be engaged with the buckle of the main body 100A of the carrying device 1000A, and the engagement between the two can be released by the release belt 363, so that the main body 100A can be stably set on the suitcase 800 or quickly separated from the suitcase 800.
[0219] Fifteenth embodiment
[0220] Figure 49A rear perspective view of a carrying device 1000A (eg, an animal carrying device or other types of carrying devices) provided in the fifteenth embodiment is shown, in which the male buckle 361 and the female buckle 362 of the magnetic buckle mechanism 36 are buckled together. Figure 50 A rear perspective view of the carrying device 1000A is shown, with the male buckle 361 and the female buckle 362 of the magnetic buckle mechanism 36 separated.
[0221] The carrying device 1000A provided in the fifteenth embodiment is a variation of the carrying device 1000A provided in the thirteenth embodiment. Unless there is a conflict, the structure of the carrying device 1000A provided in the fifteenth embodiment can refer to the structure of the carrying device 1000A provided in the thirteenth embodiment. The main difference between the fifteenth embodiment and the thirteenth embodiment is that the fifteenth embodiment omits the slide groove or slide rail 15A of the thirteenth embodiment, and the two female buckles 362 can be fixedly connected to the outer surface of the body 100A.
[0222] Sixteenth embodiment
[0223] Figure 51 A rear perspective view of a carrying device 1000A (eg, an animal carrying device or other types of carrying devices) provided in the sixteenth embodiment is shown, in which the male buckle 361 and the female buckle 362 of the magnetic buckle mechanism 36 are buckled together. Figure 52 A rear perspective view of the carrying device 1000A is shown, with the male buckle 361 and the female buckle 362 of the magnetic buckle mechanism 36 separated. Figure 53 A front stereoscopic view of the carrying device 1000A is shown, with the male buckle 361 and the female buckle 362 of the magnetic buckle mechanism 36 separated.
[0224] The carrying device 1000A provided in the sixteenth embodiment is a variation of the carrying device 1000A provided in the fifteenth embodiment. Unless there is a conflict, the structure of the carrying device 1000A provided in the sixteenth embodiment may refer to the structure of the carrying device 1000A provided in the fifteenth embodiment. The following mainly describes the differences between the sixteenth embodiment and the fifteenth embodiment.
[0225] In this embodiment, the body 100A of the carrier 1000A and the LATCH structure 300A are connected via four magnetic closure mechanisms 36. These four magnetic closure mechanisms 36 are located away from the bottom surface of the body 100A. Furthermore, the four magnetic closure mechanisms 36 are arranged on multiple outer sides of the body 100A, for example, two magnetic closure mechanisms 36 are arranged on the back surface of the body 100A, and two magnetic closure mechanisms 36 are arranged on the opposing left and right sides of the body 100A.
[0226] The female buckles 362 of the magnetic clasp mechanism 36 are, for example, disposed on the body 100A. The left and right female buckles 362 can be connected to adjacent female buckles 362 via release strips 363. The male buckles 361 of the magnetic clasp mechanism 36 are connected in pairs via the webbing 32. Each webbing 32 is connected to a connector 31, and the position of the connector 31 on the webbing 32 is adjustable. For example, the connector 31 includes a connection hole 310A, through which the webbing 32 passes, allowing the connector 31 to slide along the webbing 32.
[0227] Of course, in other embodiments, the positions of the male buckle 361 and the female buckle 362 on the body 100A and the LATCH structure 300A can be interchanged.
[0228] In this embodiment, by arranging the magnetic buckle mechanism 36 on different outer sides of the body 100A of the carrying device 1000A, the connection stability between the body 100A and the ISOFIX structure of the car seat is further increased, thereby preventing the body 100A from rolling when the car is hit.
[0229] The technical features of the above-mentioned embodiments can be combined arbitrarily. In order to make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-mentioned embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
[0230] The above-described embodiments merely represent several implementation methods of the present invention. While the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that a person skilled in the art would be able to make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of the present invention, and these modifications and improvements fall within the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present utility model patent shall be determined by the appended claims.
