[0071] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of this application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0072] It should be noted that when a component is referred to as being "connected" to another component, it may be directly connected to the other component or there may be an intermediate component. When a component is referred to as being "disposed on" another component, it may be directly disposed on the other component or there may be an intermediate component.

[0073] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which this application pertains. The terms used herein in the specification of this application are for the purpose of describing specific embodiments only and are not intended to limit this application. The term "and / or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0074] In this application, the terms "first," "second," etc. are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be understood to indicate or imply relative importance or implicitly indicate the number or order of the technical features indicated. Therefore, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In the description of this application, "plurality" means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise specifically defined.

[0075] See Figures 1 to 3 The present application provides an adaptive mounting structure for a child carrier, wherein the child carrier 400 is used to carry children, such as a child seat, a child sleeping basket, a sleeping box, etc. Such a child carrier is installed on a support device 600 through the adaptive mounting structure of this embodiment. The support device can be a vehicle frame, a bed frame, etc.

[0076] The adaptable mounting structure of this embodiment includes a first component 100 and a second component 200. The first component 100 is used to connect to the child carrier 400, and the second component 200 is used to connect to the support device 600. The second component 200 and the first component 100 are engaged, for example, by plugging together. In this engaged state, the two components can also rotate about an axis 500 in space. During folding, the child carrier 400 can be folded by rotating the first component 100 relative to the second component 200 about the axis 500. For example, the child carrier is a seat, and the support device is a frame. A first locking mechanism and a second locking mechanism are provided between the first component 100 and the second component 200. The first locking mechanism releasably retains the second component in engagement with the first component, thereby preventing the two components from separating. The second locking mechanism restricts rotation between the two components. In conjunction with the above, when the seat needs to be folded, the second locking mechanism is unlocked, allowing the seat's own weight to cause the first component to rotate relative to the second component.

[0077] The child carrier 400 is fixedly connected to the first component 100 , that is, the two cannot at least rotate relative to each other; the support device 600 is fixedly connected to the second component 200 , that is, the two cannot at least rotate relative to each other.

[0078] like Figures 4 to 7 As shown, in one embodiment, the first component 100 is provided with a slot 110 extending perpendicular to the axis 500, a portion of the second component 200 is a coupling portion 210 that is inserted into the slot 110 when engaged with the first component 100, the slot 110 has an open area 120 on the slot wall along one side of the axis 500, and the remaining portion of the second component 200 outside the slot 110 is an external portion 220.

[0079] The external portion 220 and the connecting portion 210 are integrally structured. In one embodiment, the child carrier 400 is connected to the side of the first component 100 opposite the open area 120 along the axis 500, and the support device 600 is connected to the external portion 220. When the two components are connected, the external portion 220 shields the open area 120.

[0080] In one embodiment, when viewed along axis 500, the coupling portion 210 is disc-shaped, and the external portion 220 is disc-shaped. Axis 500 is the axis at which the center of either the coupling portion 210 or the external portion 220 lies. Preferably, the external portion 220 and coupling portion 210 are concentrically arranged, with the centers of both the external portion 220 and the coupling portion 210 lying on axis 500. The corresponding retaining groove 110 on the first component 100 extends radially, and the direction of engagement and separation between the two components is radial.

[0081] It should be noted that the following description of radial directions is based on the axis 500 unless otherwise specified.

[0082] In one embodiment, along axis 500, a reduced diameter portion 230 is formed between the external portion 220 and the coupling portion 210. A retaining groove is formed on the outer periphery of the reduced diameter portion 230. The inner edge of the open area 120 is positioned within the retaining groove, thereby restricting axial separation of the second component 200 and the first component 100. A first locking mechanism restricts radial separation of the two components and similarly restricts separation of the first component during rotation relative to the second component.

[0083] The reduced diameter portion 230 has a circular outer contour, and at least a portion of the inner edge of the open area 120 conforms to the outer contour of the reduced diameter portion 230. This serves as a rotation guide for the first component 100 to rotate relative to the second component 200. Specifically, the inner edge of the open area 120 has a rounded top, such as a semicircle, and an open bottom to allow the joint portion 210 and the reduced diameter portion 230 to enter during engagement.

[0084] In one embodiment, the adaptor mounting structure includes a third component 300 rotatably connected to the first component 100. The rotational connection can be a direct rotational connection (the two have a connection relationship) or a relative rotational connection (the two have no connection relationship, only relative movement changes).

[0085] The third component 300 is provided with an unlocking member that is linked to the first component 100 and unlocks the second locking mechanism. The third component 300 can be a part of the child carrier, such as the backrest of a child seat. The unlocking member can be an operating element installed on the backrest that requires manual activation, or a transmission component or part of the third component. The backrest rotates and triggers the unlocking member to unlock the second locking mechanism. This corresponds to the direct rotation connection described above.

[0086] The third component 300 can also be a part of the supporting device, such as a handlebar of the vehicle frame. The unlocking member can be an operating member provided on the handlebar that requires manual activation, or a transmission member or part of the handlebar. The second locking mechanism is unlocked by the sliding, retracting, or rotating handlebar, and the movement of the unlocking member triggers the unlocking of the second locking mechanism. This corresponds to the indirect rotational connection described above.

[0087] Combined with attachment Figures 4 to 10 , the structure of the embodiment is specifically described:

[0088] The first locking mechanism comprises:

[0089] The first locking tongue 710 is movably mounted in the first component 100.

[0090] The first locking groove 211 is provided on the second component 200.

[0091] The first drive assembly drives the first locking tongue 710 into or out of the first locking slot 211. In the illustration, the first locking tongue 710 maintains the two components in an engaged state when entering the first locking slot 211, and the first locking tongue 710 exits the first locking slot 211, allowing the two components to separate. The first component 100 defines a first sliding slot extending along the axis, and the first locking tongue is slidably mounted in the first sliding slot.

[0092] Wherein, the first driving component includes:

[0093] The first elastic member 720 drives the first locking tongue 710 into the first locking groove 211;

[0094] The first unlocking member 730 is movably mounted on the first component 100 and is linked to the first locking tongue 710 to drive the first locking tongue 710 to disengage from the first locking groove 211 .

[0095] The first resilient member 720 is a spring, for example. The first unlocking member 730 is radially slidably mounted on the first component 100 and has a first inclined surface that cooperates with the first locking tongue 710. To unlock, pressing the first unlocking member 730 causes the first locking tongue 710 to exit the first locking slot 211 via the first inclined surface. The first unlocking member is an unlocking button, movably mounted on the outer circumference of the first component.

[0096] The first locking groove 211 is an annular space arranged around the axis 500 (e.g., the annular groove shown in the figure). The first locking tongue 710 enters the annular groove and abuts against one of its walls to maintain the two components in engagement. When the first component 100 rotates relative to the second component 200, the first locking tongue 710 moves within the annular space around the axis 500, thereby preventing rotational interference with the first component 100. The first locking tongue 710 is provided with a second inclined surface that abuts against the second component 200 during engagement and drives its own movement. During engagement, the first locking tongue 710 aligns with the first locking groove 211 and is then driven into the first locking groove 211 by the first elastic member 720.

[0097] The second locking mechanism comprises:

[0098] The second locking tongue 810 is movably mounted on the second component 200;

[0099] The second locking groove 212 is provided in the second component 200.

[0100] The second driving assembly drives the second locking tongue 810 to enter or exit the second locking groove 212. When the second locking tongue 810 enters the second locking groove 212, the two components are restricted from relative rotation. When the second locking tongue 810 exits the second locking groove 212, the two components are allowed to rotate relative to each other.

[0101] The first component 100 defines a second sliding groove extending along the axis 500 , and the second locking tongue 810 is slidably mounted in the second sliding groove.

[0102] The second locking tongue 810 is radially farther from the axis 500 than the first locking tongue 710. The second locking groove 212 is defined on the outer periphery of the coupling portion 210, extending vertically in the radial direction and opening upward. This facilitates engagement and separation by unlocking the first locking mechanism and then vertically moving the first component upward. When the second locking tongue 810 enters the second locking groove 212, it circumferentially abuts against the wall of the second locking groove 212, thereby restricting rotation of the two components.

[0103] The second drive assembly includes:

[0104] The second elastic member 820 drives the second locking tongue 810 into the second locking groove 212;

[0105] The second unlocking member 830 is movably mounted on the first component 100 and is linked to the second locking tongue 810 to drive the second locking tongue 810 out of the second locking groove 212. The second elastic member 820 is a spring, etc. The second unlocking member 830 is an unlocking member provided on the third component 300.

[0106] like Figures 11 to 14The present application also provides a child stroller 1000, comprising a frame serving as a support device 600, and a child carrier 400, wherein the frame and the child carrier are connected via the adaptable mounting structure of the aforementioned embodiment. The first component 100 is connected to the child carrier 400, and the second component 200 is connected to the frame.

[0107] The child carrier 400 is a seat, which includes a seat cushion 410 and a backrest 420 that are rotatably coupled, wherein the first component 100 is fixedly disposed on the seat cushion 410. The backrest 420 and the seat cushion 410 are rotatably coupled about an axis 500.

[0108] The backrest 420, which is the aforementioned third component 300, has at least a portion thereof serving as the second unlocking member 830. Rotating the backrest 420 relative to the seat cushion 410 to a predetermined angle unlocks the second locking mechanism. Specifically, the backrest 420 has a joint 421 that rotatably engages with the seat cushion 410. The joint 421 includes a third inclined surface serving as the second unlocking member 830. The second locking tongue 810 also includes an inclined surface that mates with the third inclined surface.

[0109] In one embodiment, a third locking mechanism is provided between the seat cushion 410 and the backrest 420 to maintain the relative angle.

[0110] The specific seat folding operation is as shown in the figure:

[0111] Unlock the third locking mechanism, then rotate the backrest closer to the seat cushion, and when the backrest reaches a preset angle (a first preset angle), the third inclined surface drives the second locking tongue to slide out of the second locking groove, the second locking mechanism is unlocked, and the seat rotates the first component relative to the second component due to its own weight, completing the folding of the seat, wherein the backrest continues to rotate due to its own weight until it is completely against the seat cushion.

[0112] In one embodiment, the seat includes an armrest 430 that rotates with the seat cushion 410. The armrest 430 has an unfolded state and a folded state relative to the seat, and a fourth locking mechanism is provided between the armrest and the seat cushion 410. When the backrest is rotated to a second preset angle (equal to or not equal to the first preset angle), the fourth locking mechanism is unlocked, so that the armrest rotates closer to the seat cushion due to its own weight or driven by the backrest.

[0113] In one embodiment, the frame is a foldable frame.

[0114] In the adaptable mounting structure of the child carrier of the present application, a first component and a second component are in an engaged state. In the engaged state, the first component can rotate relative to the second component to realize the rotation of the child carrier relative to the supporting device. For example, the child carrier is a seat and the supporting device is a frame. When folding, the seat is rotated relative to the second component by the first component to complete the seat folding operation.

[0115] The technical features of the above embodiments may be combined in any manner. To simplify the description, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there are no conflicts in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification. When technical features in different embodiments are reflected in the same figure, it can be regarded as that figure also discloses the combination examples of the various embodiments involved.

[0116] The above embodiments merely illustrate several implementation methods of the present application. While the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the patent application. It should be noted that a person skilled in the art could make numerous variations and improvements without departing from the spirit of the present application, all of which fall within the scope of protection of the present application.
