[0024] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0025] Example 1
[0026] See attached document Figure 1-5 The device includes two annular supports 10 and multiple longitudinal supports 20. The annular supports 10 include two first arc-shaped rods 11 and two second arc-shaped rods 12. The first arc-shaped rods 11 and the second arc-shaped rods 12 are detachably connected as one unit through an installation mechanism. The insertion post 32 and the first arc-shaped rods 11 / 2 arc-shaped rods 12, the shaft seat 38 and the first connecting rod 21, the first insertion post 41 and the first connecting rod 21, and the second insertion post 42 and the second connecting rod 22 are all connected through detachable components. The first arc-shaped rods 11 and the second arc-shaped rods 12, the first connecting rods 21 and the second connecting rods 22, and the first connecting rods 21 / 2 connecting rods 22 and the connecting post 31 can all be separated, thereby reducing the size of the device and facilitating subsequent packaging and transportation by express delivery.
[0027] The installation methods of the disassembly components between the first arc-shaped rod 11 / second arc-shaped rod 12 and the connecting post 31, between the first connecting rod 21 / second connecting rod 22 and the first insertion post 41 / second insertion post 42, and between the first connecting rod 21 / second connecting rod 22 and the connecting post 31 are all the same. The following description and explanation will focus on the installation principle between the first arc-shaped rod 11 and the connecting post 31.
[0028] The mounting mechanism includes a connecting column 31, with inserts 32 fixedly installed at both ends of the connecting column 31. A bearing 38 is rotatably connected to the bottom wall of the connecting column 31. Insertion holes 33 are provided on the end walls of the first arc rod 11, the second arc rod 12, and the first connecting rod 21. The two inserts 32 are respectively inserted into two adjacent insertion holes 33 on the first arc rod 11 and the second arc rod 12. The bearing 38 is inserted into the insertion hole 33 on the first connecting rod 21.
[0029] One set of disassembly components includes a first elastic clip 34, on the outer wall of which a first protrusion 35 is fixedly installed. The side wall of the first elastic clip 34 away from the first protrusion 35 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the insertion post 32. The outer wall of the insertion post 32 has a first through hole 36, and the first protrusion 35 is movably installed inside the first through hole 36. The side wall of the insertion hole 33 has a first positioning hole 37, and the end of the first protrusion 35 is movably inserted into the inside of the first positioning hole 37. When the first arc-shaped rod 11 is disassembled from the connecting post 31, the first protrusion 35 can be pressed so that the end of the first protrusion 35 enters the inside of the first through hole 36 through the first positioning hole 37. At this time, the fixation between the first arc-shaped rod 11 and the insertion post 32 by the first protrusion 35 can be released. Then, the connecting post 31 and the first arc-shaped rod 11 can be pulled in a direction away from each other, so that the insertion post 32 can be taken out from the insertion hole 33, thereby realizing the disassembly between the first arc-shaped rod 11 and the connecting post 31.
[0030] A longitudinal support 20 is used to connect two annular supports 10 into one unit. The longitudinal support 20 includes a first connecting rod 21 and a second connecting rod 22. The first connecting rod 21 and the second connecting rod 22 are connected into one unit by a rotating mechanism. The rotating mechanism includes a first insertion post 41 and a second insertion post 42. The first insertion post 41 is installed at the end of the first connecting rod 21 away from the annular support 10, and the second insertion post 42 is installed at the end of the second connecting rod 22 away from the annular support 10. A second rotating seat 44 is fixedly installed on the end wall of the first insertion post 41, and a first rotating seat 43 is fixedly installed on the end wall of the second insertion post 42. The first rotating seat 43 and the second rotating seat 44 are rotatably connected into one unit. Wherein, as... Figure 6 As shown, the first connecting rod 21 and the second connecting rod 22 can rotate, and the rotation causes the first connecting rod 21 and the second connecting rod 22 to fold, thereby reducing the size of the device.
[0031] A limiting component is provided on the rotating mechanism to maintain stability after the first connecting rod 21 and the second connecting rod 22 are deployed. The limiting component includes a protrusion 45 fixedly installed on the outer wall of the first rotating seat 43, and a slot 46 is provided inside the second rotating seat 44. The protrusion 45 is engaged and fixed inside the slot 46. When the first insertion post 41 and the second insertion post 42 are rotated to a straight "I" shape, the protrusion 45 can engage inside the slot 46. The mutual cooperation between the protrusion 45 and the slot 46 improves the stability between the first rotating seat 43 and the second rotating seat 44, thereby improving the stability between the first connecting rod 21 and the second connecting rod 22.
[0032] In this embodiment, an annular support 10 and a longitudinal support 20 are provided. The longitudinal support 20 is connected by a first connecting rod 21 and a second connecting rod 22 that can rotate relative to each other. By rotating the first connecting rod 21 and the second connecting rod 22, the longitudinal support 20 can be folded, thereby realizing the folding of the bathtub rack, thereby reducing the volume of the bathtub rack and saving placement space.
[0033] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
