Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on the embodiments of this application.
[0036] In order to better understand the above-mentioned objectives, technical solutions and advantages of this application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings, so as to understand in detail how to solve the problems raised in the background art.
[0037] like Figures 2 to 8 As shown, a side canopy flip-up mounting bracket is used for installing a car side tent. It includes a base plate 1 installed on a luggage rack and a flip plate 2 that fits into the base plate 1. The flip plate 2 is rotatably connected to one end of the base plate 1. The car side tent can be detachably installed on the flip plate 2. A telescopic connector 3 is provided between the base plate 1 and the flip plate 2. The other ends of the flip plate 2 and the base plate 1 are respectively provided with corresponding locking holes 21 and mounting holes 11. The mounting holes 11 are provided with adjustable locking elements 4. The locking elements 4 enter or exit from the locking holes 21 to fold or unfold the flip plate 2.
[0038] With the above solution, the mounting bracket of this application is installed on the roof rack of the vehicle, and the vehicle side tent is installed above the mounting bracket. This allows the mounting bracket to serve as a connection, that is, by installing the base plate 1 on the roof rack and the vehicle side tent on the flip plate 2, in actual operation, when the user uses the vehicle side tent, the locking member 4 can be released from the locking hole 21, the flip plate 2 is pulled up, the connecting member 3 extends, so that the flip plate 2 is in an unfolded state. At this time, the vehicle side tent faces the side of the vehicle, which is convenient for the user to set up and use. When the user rolls up the vehicle side tent, the flip plate 2 can be pressed down first, and then the locking member 4 enters the locking hole 21. The connecting member 3 retracts, so that the flip plate 2 is in a folded state. At this time, the vehicle side tent faces upward, which can reduce the windward area on the left and right sides of the vehicle side tent, reduce wind resistance, improve the user's driving safety and the service life of the vehicle side tent.
[0039] like Figures 2 to 5 As shown, in one specific embodiment of the improvement, both the base plate 1 and the flip plate 2 are U-shaped structures, and the length of the flip plate 2 is less than the length of the base plate 1. Specifically, both the base plate 1 and the flip plate 2 can be formed into a U-shaped structure by a rectangular plate and two side plates bent along the two sides of the rectangular plate. The distance between the two side plates of the flip plate 2 is less than the distance between the two side plates of the base plate 1, ensuring that the flip plate 2 can be embedded between the two side plates of the base plate 1 when folded, thereby reducing the volume of the mounting bracket.
[0040] like Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 8 As shown, in one specific embodiment of the improvement, the end of the base plate 1 away from the locking member 4 is provided with a fixing hole 12, and the end of the flip plate 2 away from the locking hole 21 is provided with a rotating hole 22. The fixing hole 12 and the rotating hole 22 correspond to each other, and a rotating rod 5 is inserted into the fixing hole 12 and the rotating hole 22. Specifically, the fixing hole 12 and the rotating hole 22 are arranged in a straight line and are both circular through holes. There are two fixing holes 12, which are respectively located on the two side plates of the base plate 1, and there are two rotating holes 22, which are respectively located on the two side plates of the flip plate 2. The rotating rod 5 can be a bolt, and a nut is provided for fixing it. The length of the rotating rod 5 is greater than the width of the base plate 1. In actual installation, the rotating rod 5 can directly pass through the base plate 1 and the flip plate 2 and be locked with a nut to realize the rotation of the flip plate 2, so that the flip plate 2 can be folded relative to the base plate 1, which is conducive to the quick assembly and disassembly of the mounting bracket.
[0041] like Figure 3 and Figure 8As shown, in one specific embodiment of the improvement, the rotating rod 5 is fitted with multiple washers 51, which are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the flip plate 2 to create a gap 7 between the flip plate 2 and the base plate 1. Specifically, five washers 51 are provided. One washer 51 can be used to fix the nut in place to prevent the nut from loosening and to avoid damage to the base plate 1. Two washers 51 are on the left side of the flip plate 2, and two washers 51 are on the right side of the flip plate 2, so that a gap 7 is formed between the two side plates of the base plate 1 and the flip plate 2. This can prevent friction damage when the flip plate 2 and the base plate 1 rotate, and can also prevent the flip plate 2 from shifting, thus ensuring the service life of the mounting bracket.
[0042] like Figure 4 As shown, in one specific embodiment of the improvement, the base plate 1 is provided with a plurality of first positioning holes 13. Specifically, the first positioning holes 13 can be circular holes or elongated rectangular holes. Since the base plate 1 is mounted on the top of the car roof rack, the two can be fixed together by screws and nuts to ensure the stability of the structure.
[0043] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, in one specific embodiment of the improvement, a blocking plate 14 is provided at one end of the base plate 1 near the rotating rod 5, and the blocking plate 14 is perpendicular to the base plate 1. Specifically, the blocking plate 14 is connected to the rectangular plate of the base plate 1, and the blocking plate 14 is also provided with a long rectangular hole, which can be used to fix the side of the front end of the base plate 1 to the luggage rack by screws and nuts, further ensuring the firmness and stability of the fixing structure of the base plate 1.
[0044] like Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, in one specific embodiment of the improvement, the flip plate 2 is provided with multiple second positioning holes 23, and a positioning block 8 is provided at one end of the flip plate 2 near the locking hole 21. Specifically, the second positioning holes 23 are circular or elliptical holes. Since the car-side tent is installed on the top of the flip plate 2, the two can be fixed by screws and nuts to ensure the stability of the structure. At the same time, the positioning blocks 8 are made of silicone, and two positioning blocks 8 are provided. The positioning blocks 8 are wrapped around the bottom of the side plates of the flip plate 2 away from the rotating rod 5. When the flip plate 2 is folded, the positioning blocks 8 are in contact with the bottom plate 1. At this time, the locking block is aligned with the adjusting handle 41 to ensure the accurate use of the locking part 4 and to prevent the flip plate 2 from bumping against the bottom plate 1.
[0045] like Figure 2 and Figure 6As shown, in one specific embodiment of the improvement, the connecting member 3 includes a telescopic rod 31 and a first connecting block 32 and a second connecting block 34 respectively disposed at both ends of the telescopic rod 31. The first connecting block 32 and the second connecting block 34 are respectively connected to the base plate 1 and the flip plate 2. Specifically, the telescopic rod 31 is a cylinder, the first connecting block 32 is installed at the tail end of the cylinder, and the second connecting block 34 is installed on the piston rod of the cylinder. The first connecting block 32 and the second connecting block 34 are respectively installed on the inner wall of the side plate on the same side of the base plate 1 and the flip plate 2. The first connecting block 32 is installed near the rear end of the locking member 4 on the base plate 1, and the second connecting block 34 is installed near the front end of the rotating rod 5 on the flip plate 2, thereby providing support and positioning for the flip plate 2 after it is unfolded.
[0046] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, in one specific embodiment of the improvement, the first connecting block 32 has an L-shaped structure, and a limiting ring 33 is provided at the end of the first connecting block 32 that is connected to the base plate 1, with a gap 6 between the limiting ring 33 and the base plate 1. Specifically, the end of the first connecting block 32 connected to the telescopic rod 31 is a sleeve structure with a round hole. The piston rod of the cylinder is inserted into the sleeve. The limiting ring 33 can be a hexagonal nut structure, and the limiting ring 33 and the first connecting block 32 are an integral structure. The two side plates of the base plate 1 are provided with corresponding through holes. The end of the first connecting block 32 corresponding to the limiting ring 33 has a cylinder. The cylinder can pass through the through hole, and the cylindrical end of the first connecting block 32 protrudes relative to the base plate 1, so that the first connecting block 32 can rotate relative to the base plate 1 after installation. That is, the first connecting block 32 rotates with the unfolding or folding of the flip plate 2, preventing the first connecting block 32 from falling off. Similarly, the second connecting block 34 is provided with a bolt. The second connecting block 34 and the bolt form an L-shaped structure. The bolt is fixedly connected to the side plate of the flip plate 2. The second connecting block 34 is provided with a through hole. The bolt is inserted into the through hole, thereby realizing the installation of the second connecting block 34, which is conducive to the quick disassembly and assembly of the connecting parts 3.
[0047] like Figure 3 and Figure 7As shown, in one specific embodiment of the improvement, the locking member 4 includes an adjusting handle 41 and two fixing rings 42 sleeved on the handle. The adjusting handle 41 passes through the base plate 1 so that the base plate 1 is placed between the two fixing rings 42. Specifically, the fixing ring 42 can be a hexagonal nut. The fixing ring 42 is sleeved on the front end of the adjusting handle 41, and the two fixing rings 42 are distributed on both sides of one side plate of the base plate 1. The adjusting handle 41 and the fixing ring 42 can be threaded together. The adjusting handle 41 protrudes from the side of the fixing ring 42, and there is a gap 7 between the fixing ring 42 and the locking block of the flip plate 2 to avoid friction between the flip plate 2 and the fixing ring 42. In actual installation, one fixing ring 42 can be fixed to the adjusting handle 41 first, and then the adjusting handle 41 can be pushed through the side plate of the base plate 1 before the other fixing ring 42 is installed. This can fix the locking part 4 and the base plate 1. When the adjusting handle 41 needs to enter or exit the locking hole 21, it is only necessary to turn the adjusting handle 41 so that the adjusting handle 41 rotates relative to the fixing ring 42 and moves forward or backward, which facilitates the quick installation and removal of the locking part 4. The extension length of the adjusting handle 41 can also be adjusted by the two fixing rings 42.
[0048] When the flip-up board 2 is adjusted from the folded state to the unfolded state (when the user uses the side tent), first turn the adjustment handle 41 to disengage the adjustment handle 41 from the locking hole 21, pull up the flip-up board 2, and the telescopic rod 31 extends, so that the flip-up board 2 is perpendicular to the base plate 1, and the vehicle side tent faces the side of the vehicle, which makes it convenient for the user to set up and use the vehicle side tent.
[0049] When the flip panel 2 is adjusted from the unfolded state to the folded state (the user folds up the side tent), first press down the flip panel 2, the telescopic rod 31 shortens, turn the adjustment handle 41, the adjustment handle 41 enters the locking hole 21, so that the flip panel 2 and the base plate 1 are parallel, and the vehicle side tent faces the top of the vehicle, which helps to reduce the wind resistance of the vehicle side tent and ensure the service life of the vehicle side tent.
[0050] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of this utility model, and the protection scope of this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. All technical solutions within the scope of this utility model's concept are within the protection scope of this utility model. It should be pointed out that for those skilled in the art, any improvements and modifications made without departing from the principle of this utility model should also be considered within the protection scope of this utility model.
