The guide rod 352 is fixedly provided in the end of the body 351 and two ends of the guide rod 352 respectively pass through the through hole 344. Thus, the body 351 can move back and forth in the through groove 343 along the radial direction by the guide rod 352. However, the form of the pressing member 35 can be changed according to the requirement of the user.

[0032] Please refer to Figures 4 to 6 As shown, the two rotating discs 36 are identical in structure, so one of the rotating discs 36 is taken as an example for illustration. The rotating disc 36 is a disc and penetrates a guide hole 361 and a disc hole 362. The guide hole 361 is an arc-shaped hole. One end of the guide hole 361 extends towards the radial direction, which is a positioning section 363. The other end of the guide hole 361 extends along the circumferential direction of the rotating disc 36, which is a sliding section 364. The disc hole 362 is located on the side opposite to the radial direction of the guide hole 361. However, the structure of the rotating disc 36 can be changed according to the requirement of the user. The two rotating discs 36 are rotatably installed in the inner groove 341 and the outer groove 342 respectively. The two ends of the guide rod 352 are respectively provided in the guide holes 361 of the two rotating discs 36.

[0035] As shown in the drawings, Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown in the drawings, each upper link part 33 comprises an inner tube 331, a spring 332, two limiters 333, an outer tube 334, a guide pin 335 and an upper pivot seat 336, the inner tube 331 penetrates a sliding groove 337 extending along the axial direction of the inner tube 331, the spring 332 is arranged in the inner tube 331, the two limiters 333 are respectively arranged at two ends of the inner tube 331, the inner tube 331 is movably arranged in the outer tube 334, the outer tube 334 penetrates a positioning hole 338, the guide pin 335 is arranged in the positioning hole 338 and the sliding groove 337, and the upper pivot seat 336 is fixedly arranged on the frame 10. One end of the outer tube 334 is pivotally connected to the upper pivot seat 336, one end of the spring 332 abuts against the guide pin 335 by accumulating the elastic force of its own compression, and the other end abuts against the limiter 333 adjacent to the upper pivot seat 336. One end of the inner tube 331 of one upper link part 33 is pivotally connected to the approximate central position of the inner rod 321, and one end of the inner tube 331 of the other upper link part 33 is pivotally connected to the approximate central position of the outer rod 323, but not limited to the above, the form of the upper link part 33 can be changed according to the needs of the user.

[0036] As shown in the drawings, Figure 1 As shown in the drawings, the cover 40 is annularly arranged around the frame 10, the bottom plate 20 and the two folding assemblies 30, one end of the cover 40 is fixedly arranged on the frame 10, and the other end is fixedly arranged on the bottom plate 20.

[0037] The utility model uses, has one open state and one folding state, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown in the drawings, in the open state, the guide rod 352 of the pressing piece 35 is located in the positioning section 363 of the guide hole 361 in the rotating disc 36, and the frame 10 and the bottom plate 20 are supported by the two folding assemblies 30, so that the frame 10 and the bottom plate 20 are kept at a certain distance away from each other; Figure 7 As shown in the drawings, when the user wants to fold the utility model, the guide rod 352 can be moved from the positioning section 363 of the guide hole 361 to the sliding section 364 by pressing the bottom end of the pressing piece 35 upwards with both hands; Figure 3、 Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, by applying force downward toward one end of the base 34, the guide rod 352 slides from one end of the sliding section 364 toward the other end. During the sliding process, the inner rod 321 and the outer rod 323 connected to the turntable 36 will move along the circumferential direction of the turntable 36, and the inner tube 331 will move outward relative to the outer tube 334, causing the guide pin 335 to move toward the other end of the slide groove 337 and compress the elastic member 332, thereby moving the frame 10 and the bottom plate 20 toward each other until they stop, which is the folded state; when returning to the expanded state from the folded state, the user directly pulls up the frame 10 and uses the elastic restoring force of the elastic member 332 to push the guide pin 335 back to its original end, causing the inner tube 331 to move toward the outer tube 334, and pulling the inner rod 321 and the outer rod 323 connected to the turntable 36 back to their original expanded state position.

[0038] In the above process, since the utility model has an expanded state and a folded state, when the user is not in use, the utility model can be adjusted to the folded state to reduce the overall volume, so that the user can store it and save space. When it is ready to use, it is only necessary to pull the frame upwards to the expanded state to use it, which is highly convenient.

[0039] See also Figure 10 As shown, the present invention can also be installed on a pet stroller 50. Specifically, the pet stroller 50 is provided with a platform 51. The present invention can be installed on the pet stroller 50 by placing the bottom plate 20 on the platform 51, thereby replacing the original cabin of the pet stroller 50. Therefore, when not in use, in addition to the present invention being able to be folded and stored alone, the pet stroller 50 can also significantly reduce its overall volume after folding because it eliminates the space for the cabin, making it easier for the user to store it.

[0040] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not constitute any form of limitation to the present invention. Although the present invention has been disclosed as a preferred embodiment, it is not intended to limit the present invention. Any person having ordinary knowledge in the technical field can make some changes or modifications to the technical contents disclosed above as equivalent embodiments without departing from the scope of the technical solution of the present invention. However, any simple modifications, equivalent changes and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention without departing from the content of the technical solution of the present invention are still within the scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
