[0002] In the prior art, the connection devices between the tubes usually adopt various methods to achieve the rotatable connection between the tubes to meet the needs of different usage scenarios. However, these connection methods often have some limitations.
[0003] Specifically, first, the two tube bodies are connected by a simple hinge or rotary joint. Although this method can achieve the rotation of the tube body, the connection often lacks sufficient stability and supporting force, and is prone to shaking or loosening during use, affecting the safety and reliability of the guardrail. The second method is to use a fixing method such as welding or threaded connection to firmly connect the two tube bodies together. However, although this method can provide a stable connection effect, once the connection is completed, the relative position between the tube bodies is fixed and unchanged, lacking flexibility, and cannot meet the use requirements of the bed guardrail at different angles. Third, some connecting devices also use complex mechanical structures to achieve rotatable connection of the tube body, but these structures are often difficult to install, have high maintenance costs, and are prone to failure during use, affecting the user experience.

[0048] See also Figures 1 to 5 , this embodiment provides a connection device, including:
[0049] first tube body 10;
[0050] a second tube body 20, wherein an end of the second tube body 20 is rotatably connected to an end of the first tube body 10;
[0051] The sleeve 30 is slidably mounted on the first tube body 10 and / or the second tube body 20. When the sleeve 30 is simultaneously mounted on the first tube body 10 and the second tube body 20, the axis of the first tube body 10 coincides with the axis of the second tube body 20 to prevent the first tube body 10 and the second tube body 20 from bending at the connection.
[0052] The first tube body 10 and the second tube body 20 are made of high-strength, corrosion-resistant materials, such as stainless steel or aluminum alloy, to ensure sufficient strength and durability during use. The ends of the first tube body 10 and the second tube body 20 are rotatably connected. Specifically, the ends of the first tube body 10 and the second tube body 20 are provided with mutually mating bearings or rotary joints to enable relative rotation of the first tube body 10 and the second tube body 20.
[0053] Furthermore, the first tube body 10 and the second tube body 20 have the same diameter. When the axes of the first tube body 10 and the second tube body 20 coincide, the two form a straight rod.
[0054] The sleeve 30 is a hollow tube with open ends. The sleeve 30 is made of the same material as the first tube 10 and will not be further described here. The inner wall of the sleeve 30 is smooth to reduce friction with the first tube 10 and the second tube 20. The inner diameter of the sleeve 30 matches the diameters of the first and second tubes 10, 20, ensuring that the sleeve 30 fits snugly around the first and / or second tubes 10, 20 and provides sufficient support.
[0055] In some embodiments, the inner wall edge of the sleeve 30 has a chamfer to facilitate the socketing of the second tube body 20; that is, when the sleeve 30 moves toward the second tube body 20, when the axes of the first tube body 10 and the second tube body 20 do not completely coincide, the chamfer has a guiding role to fine-tune the second tube body 20.
[0056] In actual use, when the first tube body 10 and the second tube body 20 need to be connected, the ends of the two are first aligned, and then the sleeve 30 located on the first tube body 10 is slid onto the first tube body 10 and the second tube body 20, so that the sleeve 30 is simultaneously sleeved on the first tube body 10 and the second tube body 20.
[0057] When the sleeve 30 is simultaneously placed over the first tube 10 and the second tube 20, the axis of the first tube 10 and the axis of the second tube 20 automatically align due to the restrictive effect of the sleeve 30, thereby preventing the rotatable connection from bending or deformation when subjected to force. In other words, when it is necessary to keep the axes of the first tube 10 and the second tube 20 aligned to prevent bending, the user can slide the sleeve 30 to a position that covers both tubes simultaneously.
[0058] A rotatable connection is achieved by providing bearings or rotary joints at the ends of the first and second tubes 10, 20. This connection allows the first and second tubes 10, 20 to rotate relative to each other, facilitating storage of the first and second tubes 10, 20. Specifically, to store the first and second tubes 10, 20, the sleeve 30 is slid open to expose the connection, and the second tube 20 is then rotated to complete the storage.
[0059] The sleeve 30 is slidably arranged, allowing the connection device to maintain flexibility while preventing bending or deformation of the connection under stress. When the sleeve 30 is simultaneously mounted on the first tube body 10 and the second tube body 20, the axis of the first tube body 10 and the axis of the second tube body 20 automatically coincide due to the restraining effect of the sleeve 30, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of the connection device.
[0060] Different from the existing technology, the above technical solution adopts a rotatable connection between the first tube body 10 and the second tube body 20, so that it can be easily folded and stored when not in use, saving storage space and improving overall portability. The sliding setting of the sleeve ensures that the axes of the two tubes are precisely aligned at the connection when needed, thereby maintaining the straight state of the device and improving the connection strength at the connection. This setting not only enhances the stability and support force of the device during use, but also avoids bending or deformation at the connection between the two tubes during use, effectively extending the service life of the device.
[0061] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figures 1 to 3 , further comprising: a first limiting ring 40;
[0062] The first limiting ring 40 is sleeved on the first tube 10 , and the distance from the first limiting ring 40 to the end of the first tube 10 close to the second tube 20 is greater than or equal to the length of the sleeve 30 .
[0063] The first retaining ring 40 is mounted on the first tube 10. The distance between the first retaining ring 40 and the end of the first tube 10 near the second tube 20 (i.e., the distance between the first retaining ring 40 and the connection between the first tube 10 and the second tube 20) is greater than or equal to the length of the sleeve 30. This prevents the sleeve 30 from sliding off the first tube 10. Specifically, when the sleeve 30 is pushed toward the other end of the first tube 10, the first retaining ring 40 blocks the sleeve 30, preventing it from completely separating from the first tube 10. Furthermore, when the sleeve 30 is stored, it is positioned between the first retaining ring 40 and the end of the first tube 10, interfering with the folding of the first and second tubes 10, 20.
[0064] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figures 1 to 3 , further comprising: a second limiting ring 50;
[0065] The second limiting ring 50 is sleeved on the second tube 20 , and the distance between the second limiting ring 50 and the end of the second tube 20 close to the first tube 10 is less than the length of the sleeve 30 .
[0066] The second retaining ring 50 is mounted on the second tube 20, and the distance between the second tube 20 and the end of the first tube 10 is less than the length of the sleeve 30. This ensures that when the sleeve 30 slides to cover the second tube 20, it is blocked by the second retaining ring 50, preventing further movement. At this point, the sleeve 30 has reached its maximum range, preventing it from sliding out of the first tube 10 due to excessive movement.
[0067] During use, when the sleeve 30 is slid to a position that covers both the first tube 10 and the second tube 20, the axes of the first and second tubes 10 and 20 coincide, allowing the connection device to remain stable under load and prevent bending. At this point, the second retaining ring 50 contacts the sleeve 30, restricting its position and preventing it from failing to cover the first tube 10.
[0068] When the first tube body 10 and the second tube body 20 need to be accommodated, the sleeve 30 is slid so that the sleeve 30 contacts the first limiting ring 40 to expose the connection, and then the second tube body 20 is rotated to complete the accommodation.
[0069] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figures 1 to 3 , further comprising: a first clamping member 60;
[0070] The first clamping member 60 is disposed on a side of the sleeve close to the first limiting ring 40 , and the first clamping member 60 is used to be clamped with the first limiting ring 40 .
[0071] The first clamping member 60 is positioned on the side of the sleeve 30 adjacent to the first retaining ring 40. The first clamping member 60 engages with the first retaining ring 40, thereby securing the sleeve 30 to the first tube 10. The securing mechanism may be a mechanical snap, hook, or, in some embodiments, magnetic attraction. Specifically, when stored, the sleeve 30 is positioned between the first retaining ring 40 and the end of the first tube 10, with the first clamping member 60 engaging the first retaining ring 40 to prevent the sleeve from sliding during storage.
[0072] During use, the sleeve 30 is slid to be sleeved only on the first tube body 10 , and when the sleeve 30 needs to be fixed, the first clamping member 60 can be operated to be clamped with the first limiting ring 40 .
[0073] When the sleeve 30 slides to the desired position, the first clamping member 60 is operated (such as pressing the buckle, rotating the hook, etc.) to make it closely contact and clamp together with the first limiting ring 40. In this way, the sleeve 30 is firmly fixed to the first tube body 10 and will not easily slide or fall off due to external forces.
[0074] Furthermore, the first clamping member 60 is provided with a locking hole, and the first retaining ring 40 is provided with a protrusion. When a locking connection is required, the sliding sleeve 30 causes the first clamping member 60 to contact the protrusion of the first retaining ring 40, causing the end of the first clamping member 60 away from the sleeve 30 to lift upward until the protrusion is placed in the locking hole, completing the locking connection. It should also be noted that the first clamping member 60 is an extension of the sleeve toward the first clamping ring. Specifically, the first clamping member 60 is plate-shaped, and the locking hole is located on the side of the first clamping member 60 away from the sleeve 30.
[0075] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figures 1 to 3 , further comprising: a second clamping member 70;
[0076] The second clamping member 70 is disposed on a side of the sleeve close to the second limiting ring 50 , and the second clamping member 70 is used to be clamped with the second limiting ring 50 .
[0077] The second clamping member 70 is positioned on the side of the sleeve 30 near the second retaining ring 50. The second clamping member 70 engages with the second retaining ring 50, thereby securing the sleeve 30 to the first and second tubes 10, 20. The clamping mechanism is identical to that of the first clamping member 60 and will not be further described here. When the sleeve 30 is positioned over the ends of the first and second tubes 10, 20, the second clamping member 70 engages with the second retaining ring 50 to prevent the sleeve 30 from slipping.
[0078] During use, the sleeve 30 is slid to be sleeved only on the first tube body 10 , and when the sleeve 30 needs to be fixed, the first clamping member 60 can be operated to be clamped with the first limiting ring 40 .
[0079] During use, the sleeve 30 is slid to cover the positions of the first tube body 10 and the second tube body 20 at the same time. When the position of the sleeve 30 needs to be fixed, the second clamping member 70 can be operated to clamp it with the second limiting ring 50.
[0080] When the sleeve 30 slides to the desired position, the second clamping member 70 is operated (such as pressing the buckle, rotating the hook, etc.) to make it closely contact and clamp together with the second limiting ring 50. In this way, the sleeve 30 is firmly fixed to the second tube body 20 and will not easily slide or fall off due to external forces.
[0081] Furthermore, the second clamping member 70 is provided with a locking hole, and the second retaining ring 50 is provided with a protrusion. When the second clamping member 70 is required to engage, the sliding sleeve 30 causes the second clamping member 70 to contact the protrusion of the second retaining ring 50, causing the end of the second clamping member 70 away from the sleeve 30 to lift upward until the protrusion is placed in the locking hole, completing the engagement. It should also be noted that the second clamping member 70 is an extension of the sleeve toward the second clamping ring. Specifically, the second clamping member 70 is plate-shaped, and the locking hole is located on the side of the second clamping member 70 away from the sleeve 30.
[0082] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figures 4 and 5 , further comprising: an elastic member; both ends of the elastic member are connected to the first tube body 10 and the sleeve 30 respectively;
[0083] Alternatively, both ends of the elastic member are connected to the second tube body 20 and the sleeve 30 respectively;
[0084] The elastic member is used to drive the sleeve 30 to be sleeved on the first tube body 10 and the second tube body 20 at the same time.
[0085] There are two ways to connect the elastic member: First, the two ends of the elastic member are connected to the first tube 10 and the sleeve 30, respectively. One end of the elastic member is fixed to the first tube 10, and the other end is connected to the sleeve 30. Second, the two ends of the elastic member are connected to the second tube 20 and the sleeve 30, respectively. One end of the elastic member is fixed to the second tube 20, and the other end is connected to the sleeve 30. This ensures that when the sleeve 30 slides, the elastic member can provide a continuous push or pull force, tending to keep the sleeve 30 in a specific position (either only on the first tube 10 or on both the first tube 10 and the second tube 20).
[0086] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figures 4 and 5 , further comprising: a first resistance member and a second resistance member; the first tube body 10 is a hollow tube body, the first resistance member is fixedly placed in the first tube body 10, a strip through hole 11 is provided through the side wall of the first tube body 10, the strip through hole 11 is located on the side of the first resistance member close to the second tube body 20, the second resistance member is slidably provided on the strip through hole 11, and the second resistance member is connected to the sleeve 30;
[0087] The elastic member is a spring 91 , which is placed between the first resisting member and the second resisting member, and two ends of the spring 91 are respectively connected to the first resisting member and the second resisting member.
[0088] The first tube 10 is a hollow tube with a first resisting member fixed inside. The first resisting member is cylindrical or in another shape and is used to resist the spring 91. It is located at the end of the first tube 10 near the second tube 20. Strip-shaped through holes 11 are provided through the sidewall of the first tube 10. These strip-shaped through holes 11 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the first tube 10 and located on the side of the first resisting member near the second tube 20. These strip-shaped through holes 11 allow the second resisting member to slide therethrough.
[0089] The second resisting member is slidably disposed on the strip-shaped through hole 11 and is fixedly connected to the sleeve 30. When the sleeve 30 slides on the first tube body 10, the sleeve 30 drives the second resisting member to move on the strip-shaped through hole 11.
[0090] The spring 91 is placed between the first and second resisting members. The two ends of the spring 91 are connected to the first and second resisting members respectively, ensuring that the spring 91 can provide continuous elastic force when compressed or stretched.
[0091] During use, the sleeve 30 is placed on the first tube 10, while the second tube 20 is aligned with the centerline of the first tube 10. At this point, under the elastic force of the spring 91, the second resisting member is subjected to an elastic force toward the second tube 20. Due to the restriction of the strip-shaped through hole 11, the second resisting member moves in the direction of the strip-shaped through hole 11. This allows the sleeve 30 to be simultaneously placed on the first tube 10 and the second tube 20, thereby preventing bending at the connection between the two. At this point, the spring 91 is in its original state.
[0092] When the first tube body 10 and the second tube body 20 are accommodated, the tube body is pulled to move toward the first tube body 10 , compressing the spring 91 so that the sleeve 30 slides off the second tube body 20 .
[0093] Furthermore, when the sleeve 30 is only sleeved on the first tube body 10 , the first clamping member 60 is clamped with the first limiting ring 40 ; when the sleeve 30 is simultaneously sleeved on the first tube body 10 and the second tube body 20 , the second clamping member 70 is clamped with the second limiting ring 50 .
[0094] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figures 3 to 5 , further comprising: a connecting member 80, wherein both ends of the connecting member 80 are rotatably connected to the first tube body 10 and the second tube body 20 respectively, and the diameter of the connecting member 80 is smaller than the diameter of the sleeve 30.
[0095] The connector 80 is used to connect the first tube body 10 and the second tube body 20. The connector 80 includes a first joint, a second joint, and a fixed joint. Connecting grooves are provided on both sides of the fixed joint. One end of the first joint is placed in one connecting groove of the fixed joint, and the other end of the first joint is connected to the first tube body 10. Similarly, one end of the second joint is placed in the other connecting groove of the fixed joint, and the other end of the second joint is connected to the second tube body 20. Furthermore, the first joint and the fixed joint are rotatably connected, and the second joint and the fixed joint are rotatably connected.
[0096] See also Figure 6 This embodiment provides a fence side structure with a connecting device, including: a connecting device described in any embodiment, a first support rod and a second support rod; the first support rod is vertically arranged, and there is a gap between two adjacent first support rods, and the two ends of the connecting device are respectively connected to the two adjacent first support rods. When the connecting device is folded, the first support rods move closer to each other.
[0097] The second support rod is in a horizontal position when unfolded, one end of the second support rod is rotatably connected to a first support rod, and the other end of the second support rod is slidingly connected to another first support rod, so that the second support rod is in a vertical state when stored, and the storage is completed.
