Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of baby crib technology, and in particular to a baby crib with a novel folding structure. Background Technology
[0002] A Chinese utility model patent with application number 202422046369.8 describes a baby crib that is easy to fold and store. By adjusting the second locking mechanism, the two support rods are no longer locked in the A-shape when in use. This allows the two support rods of each set of brackets to be transformed from the A-shape to a vertical folded storage state, thus completing the quick folding and storage of the baby crib frame. This reduces the space occupied when not in use and increases the activity area indoors.
[0003] However, when this crib is folded up for storage, such as Figure 7 As shown, the two second rotating plates 83 are concentrically rotated on the second support member 6. Since support rods 31 are fixed on both second rotating plates 83, when the support rods 31 on the inner second rotating plate 83 are damaged during use, the second limiting rods 84 that limit the two second rotating plates 83 simultaneously need to be disassembled first, then the outer second rotating plate 83 and its support rods 31 need to be removed, and then the support rods 31 on the inner second rotating plate 83 need to be removed for replacement and repair. The process is relatively troublesome. For the support rods 31 on the undamaged outer second rotating plate 83, there are additional disassembly and assembly steps. Utility Model Content
[0004] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology, this utility model provides a baby bed with a novel folding structure to solve the problem that when the support rod 31 on the inner second rotating plate 83 is damaged during use, it is necessary to first disassemble the second limiting rod 84 that limits both second rotating plates 83 simultaneously, then remove the outer second rotating plate 83 and its support rod 31, and then remove the support rod 31 on the inner second rotating plate 83 for replacement and repair, which is a relatively troublesome process.
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a baby crib with a novel folding structure, comprising:
[0006] Two support blocks;
[0007] Each of the support blocks has a turntable symmetrically rotating at both ends. The turntable has an arc-shaped groove that coincides with the center of the turntable. The two ends of the arc-shaped groove are the starting point and the ending point. A first fixing groove is provided at the starting end of the arc-shaped groove.
[0008] Support columns are fixedly installed on each of the turntables;
[0009] Two fixing pins are symmetrically fixed inside the support block;
[0010] A movable plate is movably disposed within a support block. Two vertical grooves are symmetrically formed on the movable plate. A fixing pin is located within the vertical groove. An elastic element is fixedly installed on the top surface of the inner wall of the vertical groove, and one end of the elastic element abuts against the fixing pin.
[0011] Movable pins are symmetrically fixed on both sides of the movable plate, and the size of the movable pins is adapted to the size of the first fixed groove.
[0012] The support column has a vertically folded state and an inclined unfolded state. When the movable pin is located in the first fixed groove, the elastic element is at its original length and the support column is in an inclined unfolded state. When the movable pin is located at one end, the elastic element is in a compressed state and the support column is in a vertically folded state.
[0013] Preferably, a second fixing groove adapted to the size of the first fixing groove is provided at one end of the arc-shaped groove. When the movable pin is located in the second fixing groove, the elastic element is at its original length and the support column is in a vertically folded state.
[0014] Preferably, a pressing block is fixedly installed at the top of the movable plate, and when the elastic element is at its original length, the pressing block protrudes from the top surface of the support block.
[0015] Preferably, a side tube is movably provided through the support block, a support plate is fixed to the top of the side tube, and a fence is hinged to the support plate.
[0016] Preferably, each of the support columns is fixedly installed with a caster wheel with a brake pad and a support leg at its bottom end. When the support column is in the tilted unfolded state, the support leg is in contact with the ground and the caster wheel is suspended in the air. When the support column is in the vertical folded state, the caster wheel is in contact with the ground and the support leg is suspended in the air.
[0017] Preferably, when the two support columns on one of the support blocks are in a vertically folded state, the two casters do not contact each other.
[0018] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects that this utility model can achieve are:
[0019] When the support column needs to be adjusted to fold vertically, the movable plate moves downward within the support block, compressing the elastic element. The movable plate also moves the movable pins downward, disengaging each of the two movable pins from a first fixed groove. Then, the two support columns are rotated until the movable pins are at the end of the arc-shaped groove. At this point, the elastic element is compressed, and the support column is vertically folded, completing the folding and storage of the support column. This design allows for easy disassembly and replacement of any damaged support column, avoiding the cumbersome process of existing cribs where, when the support rod on the inner second rotating plate is damaged during use, the second limiting rods of both second rotating plates must be disassembled first, then the outer second rotating plate and its support rod removed, and finally the support rod on the inner second rotating plate removed for replacement.

[0028] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model is further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments. However, the following embodiments are only preferred embodiments of this utility model and not all of them. Other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments in the implementation methods without creative effort are all within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0029] like Figures 1-4 As shown, this utility model provides a baby bed with a novel folding structure, including two support blocks 1, a turntable 7, a support column 2, two fixing pins 3, a movable plate 4, and a movable pin 10;
[0030] Each support block 1 has a turntable 7 symmetrically rotated at both ends. The turntable 7 has an arc groove 72 that coincides with the center of the turntable 7. The two ends of the arc groove 72 are set as the starting point and the ending point. The starting end of the arc groove 72 has a first fixed groove 71.
[0031] Each turntable 7 is fixedly equipped with a support column 2;
[0032] Two fixing pins 3 are symmetrically fixed inside the support block 1;
[0033] The movable plate 4 is movably installed inside the support block 1. Two vertical slots 41 are symmetrically opened on the movable plate 4. The fixing pin 3 is located in the vertical slot 41. An elastic element 5 (which can be a spring) is fixedly installed on the top surface of the inner wall of the vertical slot 41. One end of the elastic element 5 abuts against the fixing pin 3.
[0034] The movable plate 4 is symmetrically fixed with movable pins 10 on both sides, and the size of the movable pins 10 is adapted to the size of the first fixed groove 71.
[0035] Among them, the support column 2 has a vertically folded state and an inclined unfolded state. When the movable pin 10 is located in the first fixed groove 71, the elastic element 5 is at its original length and the support column 2 is in an inclined unfolded state. When the movable pin 10 is located at one end, the elastic element 5 is in a compressed state and the support column 2 is in a vertically folded state.
[0036] When the support column 2 needs to be adjusted to be folded vertically, the movable plate 4 is adjusted to move downward within the support block 1, thereby compressing the elastic element 5. The movable plate 4 also moves the movable pin 10 downward, causing the two movable pins 10 to move out of one of the first fixed grooves 71 respectively. Then, the two support columns 2 are rotated until the movable pin 10 is at the end position of the arc groove 72. At this time, the elastic element 5 is in a compressed state, and the support column 2 is in a vertically folded state, thus completing the folding and storage of the support column 2. With this setting, when a support column 2 is damaged, it is convenient to disassemble and replace it individually. This avoids the problem of existing baby cribs where, when the support rod 31 on the inner second rotating plate 83 is damaged during use, the second limiting rod 84 that limits both second rotating plates 83 at the same time needs to be disassembled first, then the outer second rotating plate 83 and its support rod 31 need to be removed, and then the support rod 31 on the inner second rotating plate 83 needs to be removed for replacement and repair, which is a relatively troublesome process.
[0037] Conversely, when the crib is needed, simply rotate the two support columns 2 to unfold them, so that the movable pin 10 moves from the end point of the arc groove 72 to the starting point, and then enters the first fixed groove 71, where it will not move arbitrarily. This ensures that the support columns 2 are stably supported and will not move arbitrarily. At this time, the elastic element 5 rebounds to its original length, and the support columns 2 are in an inclined unfolded state.
[0038] like Figure 5 As shown, a second fixing groove 73 that is adapted to the size of the first fixing groove 71 is provided at one end of the arc groove 72. When the movable pin 10 is located in the second fixing groove 73, the elastic member 5 is at its original length and the support column 2 is in a vertically folded state.
[0039] By setting the second fixing groove 73, when the support column 2 is adjusted to a vertical folded state, the movable pin 10 enters the second fixing groove 73, so that the movable pin 10 is stably placed in the second fixing groove 73, and will not easily move in the arc groove 72 if people accidentally touch the support column 2.
[0040] like Figure 2 As shown, a pressing block 42 is fixedly installed at the top of the movable plate 4. When the elastic element 5 is at its original length, the pressing block 42 protrudes from the top surface of the support block 1.
[0041] By pressing the pressing block 42, the movable plate 4 can be moved, thereby compressing the elastic element 5.
[0042] like Figure 1 As shown, a side tube 9 is movably connected through the support block 1, and a support plate 11 is fixed to the top of the side tube 9. The support plate 11 is hinged to a fence 13.
[0043] For details on the lifting mechanism of the side tube 9 and the folding and storage mechanism of the railing 13, please refer to the application No. 202422046369.8 for a baby crib that is easy to fold and store.
[0044] like Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, each support column 2 is fixedly installed with a caster wheel 8 with a brake pad and a support leg 12 at the bottom. When the support column 2 is in the tilted unfolded state, the support leg 12 is in contact with the ground and the caster wheel 8 is suspended in the air. When the support column 2 is in the vertical folded state, the caster wheel 8 is in contact with the ground and the support leg 12 is suspended in the air.
[0045] By incorporating casters 8 with brake pads, the movement or fixation of the crib can be easily controlled. By incorporating support legs 12, the crib can be placed more stably when folded and stored.
[0046] like Figure 6 As shown, when the two support columns 2 on a support block 1 are in a vertically folded state, the two casters 8 do not contact each other, ensuring that the casters 8 on the two support columns 2 will not collide and be damaged when the crib is folded and stored.
[0047] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
