[0023] As Figures 1-7As shown, the utility model discloses a kind of rotatable adjustable handrails with locking mechanism of preferred embodiment, including handrail arm 1, handrail plate 2, connecting block 3 and locking lever 4, the top of handrail arm 1 is equipped with connecting groove 11, one side of connecting groove 11 is equipped with first slot 12, the other side of connecting groove 11 is equipped with the second slot 13 aligned with first slot 12, the side of first slot 12 away from second slot 13 penetrates the side of handrail arm 1, connecting block 3 is installed at the bottom of handrail plate 2, the side of connecting block 3 is equipped with rotating shaft 31, arc through slot 32 and multiple locking teeth grooves 33, arc through slot 32 is arranged around the axis of rotating shaft 31, arc through slot 32 penetrates the two sides of connecting block 3, multiple locking teeth grooves 33 are arranged along the periphery of arc through slot 32 and respectively communicated with arc through slot 32, connecting block 3 is in connecting groove 11, rotating shaft 31 is rotatably connected with the two sides of connecting groove 11,It can be understood that, the two sides of connecting block 3 are equipped with rotating shaft 31, and the two rotating shafts 31 are rotatably connected with the two sides of connecting groove 11, arc through slot 32 is aligned with first slot 12 and second slot 13 respectively, one end side of locking lever 4 is equipped with locking tooth 41, locking lever 4 and locking tooth 41 are inserted into second slot 13 in sequence through first slot 12 and arc through slot 32, locking tooth 41 cooperates with one of locking teeth grooves 33, and forms locking mechanism,It can be understood that, the side of second slot 13 away from locking lever 4 is provided with enough space to allow locking lever 4 to move in the direction close to second slot 13, so that locking tooth 41 is separated from locking teeth groove 33, to realize unlocking, for example, the side of second slot 13 away from first slot 12 penetrates the side of handrail arm 1.

[0024] The working principle of the embodiment is that: connecting block 3 is installed at the bottom of handrail plate 2, i.e. handrail plate 2 can rotate with connecting block 3;Under normal circumstances, locking tooth 41 cooperates with locking teeth groove 33, to limit the rotation of rotating block, i.e. handrail plate 2 is in the state of locking, which helps handrail plate 2 to keep in the established position, and the structure is stable;When it is necessary to rotate and adjust, locking lever 4 is pushed to move in the direction close to second slot 13 until locking tooth 41 is separated from locking teeth groove 33, at this time, connecting block 3 and handrail plate 2 can rotate around the axis of rotating shaft 31, i.e. handrail plate 2 is in the state of unlocking, and handrail plate 2 can be rotated and adjusted;When rotating block rotates to the position of another locking teeth groove 33 corresponding to the position of locking tooth 41, locking lever 4 and locking tooth 41 are reset (restored to the initial position), locking tooth 41 cooperates with the locking teeth groove 33, so that handrail plate 2 returns to the state of locking, and the rotation and adjustment of handrail plate 2 is completed;The embodiment is easy to operate, and the structure is stable.

[0025] For example, the top of the armrest 1 is provided with a limiting groove 14. The limiting groove 14 is located on the side of the second slot 13 away from the first slot 12 and is connected to the second slot 13. The setting of the limiting groove 14 provides space for the locking rod 4 to move closer to the second slot 13. It can be understood that there is a sufficient gap between the end of the locking rod 4 near the limiting groove 14 and the side of the limiting groove 14 away from the second slot 13 to ensure that the locking rod 4 can move a sufficient distance towards the second slot 13, that is, to ensure that the locking tooth 41 can move to separate from the locking tooth groove 33. At the same time, the setting of the limiting groove 14 plays a limiting role to prevent the locking rod 4 from moving too far towards the second slot 13.

[0026] For example, the end of the locking rod 4 passes through the second slot 13 and extends into the limiting groove 14. One end of the locking rod 4 that extends into the limiting groove 14 is provided with a latching block 42. The latching block 42 is fastened to the side of the limiting groove 14 near the second slot 13, thereby preventing the locking rod 4 from moving towards the first slot 12. It should be noted that the latching block 42 has a certain elastic deformation capability. When the end of the locking rod 4 is inserted into the second slot 13, the latching block 42 undergoes elastic deformation and narrows to ensure that the end of the locking rod 4 can be inserted into the second slot 13. When the end of the locking block extends into the limiting groove 14, the latching block 42 returns to its original shape and is fastened to the side wall of the limiting groove 14, thereby playing a limiting role.

[0027] For example, the second slot 13 includes a first positioning groove 15 and a second positioning groove 16 that are interconnected. The first positioning groove 15 cooperates with the locking rod 4, and the second positioning groove 16 cooperates with the locking tooth 41. When the locking rod 4 moves to the point where the locking tooth 41 disengages from the locking tooth groove 33, the locking rod 4 and the locking tooth 41 remain engaged with the second slot 13, thereby preventing the locking rod 4 from rotating, that is, preventing the locking rod 4 from being misaligned, and ensuring that the locking rod 4 and the locking tooth 41 can be reset normally.

[0028] For example, the structure of the first slot 12 is the same as that of the second slot 13, that is, the first slot 12 also includes a first positioning groove 15 and a second positioning groove 16, so that during assembly, the locking rod 4 and the locking tooth 41 can be positioned to pass through the first slot 12, which facilitates assembly. Generally, during use, the second positioning groove 16 of the first slot 12 does not cooperate with the locking tooth 41, which helps to reduce the distance that the locking rod 4 needs to move during the unlocking operation.

[0029] For example, the end of the locking lever 4 away from the second slot 13 extends out of the first slot 12, and the end of the locking lever 4 extending out of the first slot 12 is fixedly connected to a button block 43. By pressing the button block 43, the locking lever 4 can be pushed, which facilitates the unlocking operation.

[0030] For example, a return spring 44 is sleeved on the locking lever 4. The return spring 44 is located between the button block 43 and the side of the armrest 1. When the button block 43 is pressed, the button block 43 and the locking lever 4 will move towards the second slot 13. At this time, the return spring 44 is compressed and generates elastic force. After the button block 43 is released, under the elastic force of the return spring 44, the button block 43 and the locking lever 4 return to their original positions, so that the locking tooth 41 engages with the locking tooth groove 33. That is, the setting of the return spring 44 can facilitate the reset of the button block 43 and the locking lever 4, thereby facilitating the return of the armrest 2 to the locked state.

[0031] For example, the armrest 1 has a protruding ring 17 on the side near the first slot 12, and the button block 43 is inserted into the inner hole of the protruding ring 17, so that the reset spring 44 is hidden inside the protruding ring 17, which is simple and beautiful in appearance. In addition, the button block 43 is set to be non-circular. By the cooperation between the button block 43 and the inner hole of the protruding ring 17, it can prevent the button block 43 from driving the locking rod 4 to rotate.

[0032] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and substitutions can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present utility model, and these improvements and substitutions should also be considered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
