Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of space capsule technology, and in particular to a space capsule room. Background Technology

[0002] As a new type of living space, capsule dwellings are small in size, easy to transport, and provide complete housing functions. Their installation is also less affected by terrain, leading to their widespread use, especially in relatively undeveloped natural environments such as scenic areas. They effectively solve the accommodation problem for areas lacking the conditions for building houses. Typically, capsule dwellings are prefabricated by the manufacturer and transported to the installation site for installation. This process requires the use of cranes or trailers for movement. To facilitate transport, capsule dwellings are usually designed to maintain a small space. Even after installation, minor adjustments or short-distance movements still require the use of cranes or trailers, undoubtedly increasing workload and transportation costs. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a space capsule with expandable space, which is convenient for transportation and small-scale position adjustment.

[0004] The embodiments of this utility model are achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0005] A space capsule includes a main cabin. The bottom of the main cabin is equipped with wheels and foldable support columns. When the space capsule is in a moving state, the wheels are in contact with the ground, and the support columns are folded to detach from the ground. When the space capsule is in use, the support columns are extended and in contact with the ground, and the wheels are detached from the ground.

[0032] To better understand and implement this invention, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0033] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", and "outer" indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0034] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention.

[0035] Please refer to Figures 1 to 10A space capsule includes a main cabin 1. The bottom of the main cabin 1 is equipped with wheels 2 and foldable support columns 3. When the space capsule is in a moving state, the wheels 2 are in contact with the ground, and the support columns 3 are folded away from the ground. When the space capsule is in use, the support columns 3 are extended and in contact with the ground, and the wheels 2 are detached from the ground. The main cabin 1 includes a first body 11 and a second body 12, with the second body 12 at least partially movably embedded within the first body 11. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the second module 12 and the first module 11 are movably embedded, allowing the interior space of the spacecraft to be expanded, meaning the spacecraft combines large usable space with flexible transport capabilities. Specifically, as... Figure 2 As shown, when the space capsule needs to be hoisted or transported, the second capsule 12 is completely embedded inside the first capsule 11, so that the space capsule is in a small-volume transport state to facilitate transportation or hoisting; when it is ready for use after hoisting, the second capsule 12 is pulled out from the first capsule 11 to obtain a larger usable space; furthermore, as... Figure 1 As shown, the rollers 2 mounted on the bottom of the main cabin facilitate its movement, while the support column 3 supports and fixes its position. Specifically, when a small-scale movement or fine-tuning of the space capsule's position is required, the support column 3 is folded and stowed, allowing the rollers 2 to touch the ground, and the main cabin can then be pushed. Once moved to the appropriate position, the support column 3 is rotated to support itself on the ground, suspending the rollers 2 in the air, thus securing the main cabin 1, i.e., the space capsule. The support column 3 is foldable for easy storage during the transfer of the space capsule, preventing spatial interference or damage.

[0036] Optionally, roller 2 is a swivel wheel.

[0037] In this embodiment, the rollers 2 and support columns 3 are mounted on the bottom of the first cabin 11. It is understood that in other embodiments, when the second cabin 12 moves a relatively large distance relative to the first cabin 11, the center of gravity of the space capsule will shift in the direction of the second cabin 12's movement. In this case, rollers 2 and support columns 3 can be selectively mounted on the bottom of the second cabin 12 as well, thereby improving the stability of the space capsule and thus enhancing its safety during use.

[0038] In this embodiment, the support column 3 includes a fixing part 31 and a support part 32 that are hinged to each other. The fixing part 31 is installed on the main body compartment 1. When the support part 32 is in an extended state or a folded state, the fixing part 31 can limit the support part 32.

[0039] Further, the fixing part 31 includes a fixing seat 311, on which a latch handle 312 is adjustablely disposed. The support part 32 is pivotally connected to the fixing seat 311, and the pivot axis between the support part 32 and the fixing seat 311 is closer to the main body compartment 1 than the latch handle 312. The latch handle 312 includes two latch heads 3121. When the support column 3 is in the folded state, the support part 32 overlaps with at least one latch head 3121. When the support column 3 is in the extended state, the support part 32 is located between the two latch heads 3121. Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the mounting bracket 311 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the main body compartment 1. Specifically, as... Figure 8 As shown, the support 32 extends substantially longitudinally and is limited by two pins 3121 to maintain its longitudinal extension. At this point, the support 32 is on the ground, and the space capsule is in use. Figure 9 As shown, the support part 32 extends basically in the horizontal direction. At this time, both pin heads 3121 are located below the support part 32 to provide support force for the support part 32 in the longitudinal direction, so that the support part 32 falls to the ground. At this time, the roller 2 touches the ground, and the space capsule is in a moving state.

[0040] In this embodiment, the pivot axis between the support 32 and the fixed base 311 is defined as the first pivot axis, and the pin head 3121 can move along the axial direction of the first pivot axis. Specifically, the pin handle 312 is slidably connected to the fixed base 311 through the pin head 3121, and the pin head 3121 penetrates one side wall of the fixed base 311.

[0041] In another embodiment, such as Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the fixing part 31 includes a fixing base 311, on which a pin handle 312 is adjustablely disposed. The support part 32 is pivotally connected to the fixing base 311. A positioning plate 3211 is mounted on the support part 32. The positioning plate 3211 has a plurality of positioning holes 3212 that are adapted to the pin handle 312. The plurality of positioning holes 3212 are arranged circumferentially around the pivot axis between the support part 32 and the fixing base 311. Specifically, as shown... Figure 6 As shown, the positioning disk 3211 is fixedly connected to the support part 32. When the support part 32 rotates around the first rotating shaft, the positioning disk 3211 can rotate synchronously with the support part 32. Preferably, the positioning disk 3211 is a disc, and the first rotating shaft is concentric with the positioning disk 3211.

[0042] In this embodiment, the latch handle 312 is provided with at least one latch head 3121, which can be embedded in the positioning hole 3212. Preferably, there are two latch heads 3121. In use, when the latch head 3121 is inserted into the positioning hole 3212, the latch head 3121 cooperates with the positioning plate 3211 to limit the position of the support part 32. At this time, by adjusting the density of the positioning holes 3212 on the positioning plate 3211, the rotation angle of the support part 32 around the first axis can be finely adjusted, so that the space capsule can better adapt to different installation environments. For example, if there is an object on the ground interfering with the support part 32, the interfering object can be avoided by adjusting the angle of the support part 32.

[0043] It should be noted that the positioning plate 3211 has a certain thickness, which gives the positioning hole 3212 a certain depth, so that the pin head 3121 can be embedded deep enough in the positioning hole 3212 to ensure the structural strength of the support column 3. In some embodiments, the free end of the pin head 3121 is embedded in the positioning hole 3212, and does not protrude from the end near the support part 32.

[0044] like Figure 7 As shown, the latch handle 312 includes a handle base 3120, a latch head 3121 disposed on the handle base 3120 and extending through one side wall of the fixing base 311 to a positioning hole 3212. A tension spring 3122 is provided between the handle base 3120 and the fixing base 311. The tension spring 3122 acts on the handle base 3120 to make the latch head 3121 tend to embed into the positioning hole 3212. In use, the tension spring 3122 ensures that the latch head 3121 does not come out of the positioning hole 3212, thus ensuring safety.

[0045] Optionally, the support portion 32 is a telescopic component. Preferably, the support portion 32 includes, but is not limited to, a jack or a hydraulic cylinder.

[0046] In some embodiments, such as Figure 10As shown, the support portion 32 includes an outer sleeve 321 hinged to a fixed base 311. A core 322 is slidably embedded inside the outer sleeve 321. A drive shaft 323 is rotatably mounted inside the outer sleeve 321, and the drive shaft 323 is threadedly connected to the core 322. A driven gear 324 is coaxially mounted on the drive shaft 323, and a drive gear 325 that meshes with the driven gear 324 is rotatably mounted on the outer sleeve 321. In this embodiment, a first motor 326 for driving the drive gear 325 is mounted on the outer sleeve 321. In this embodiment, the drive gear 325 extends through the side wall of the outer sleeve 321 into the interior of the outer sleeve 321 and meshes with the driven gear 324. The first motor 326 drives the drive gear 325 to rotate forward and backward to realize the rotation of the drive shaft 323, thereby driving the core 322 to extend and retract within the outer sleeve 321 to achieve length adjustment of the support portion 32.

[0047] In this embodiment, the outer sleeve 321 is a square tube and the core 322 is a square shaft, so as to prevent the core 322 from rotating synchronously with the transmission shaft 323 during the process of the transmission shaft 323 driving the core 322.

[0048] In some embodiments, to facilitate quick adjustment of the support part 32, a jack is provided at the bottom of the main body compartment 1, or an external jack is used. First, the main body compartment 1 is lifted by the jack so that the roller 2 falls to the ground. Then, the length and angle of the support part 32 are adjusted so that it abuts the ground. Finally, the jack is removed. In this way, the core 322 experiences little force during the adjustment of the length of the support part 32, facilitating quick adjustment.

[0049] like Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the second compartment 12 includes an end face 121 and an inner part 122 that are connected to each other. The inner part 122 is embedded in the first compartment 11. A slide rail 1221 is arranged on the inner part 122, and a pulley 112 adapted to the slide rail 1221 is arranged on the first compartment 11.

[0050] Specifically, the inner wall of the first compartment 11 is provided with an assembly groove 111, which is correspondingly arranged with the slide rail 1221, and the pulley 112 is rotatably installed in the assembly groove 111. This arrangement can minimize the gap between the embedded parts 122 of the first compartment 11 and improve the stability of the main compartment 1 structure.

[0051] Furthermore, such as Figure 4As shown, to prevent the slide rail 1221 and pulley 112 from rusting due to rainwater during use, and to prevent rainwater from directly entering between the first compartment 11 and the second compartment 12, in this embodiment, a roller 114 is rotatably mounted on the top of the first compartment 11. A waterproof membrane 115 is wound on the roller 114, and the free end of the waterproof membrane 115 is connected to the second compartment 12. The waterproof membrane 115 is used to cover the gap between the first compartment 11 and the second compartment 12. Here, the waterproof membrane 115 can cover the gap between the first compartment 11 and the second compartment 12, preventing rainwater from getting into this area. It should be noted that the waterproof membrane 115 is located on the top of the main compartment 1.

[0052] Furthermore, a protective cover 113 is fitted on the top of the first compartment 11, and a roller 114 is rotatably mounted inside the protective cover 113. The protective cover 113 is provided with a roll-up opening 1131, which is lower than the axis of the roller 114. With this arrangement, the waterproof membrane 115 is always attached to the upper edge of the roll-up opening 1131, which can prevent rainwater from entering the protective cover 113 through the roll-up opening 1131.

[0053] To prevent the waterproof membrane 115 from being scratched by the unwinding opening 1131, a flange is provided on the upper edge of the unwinding opening 1131, and the waterproof membrane 115 slides and adheres to the flange.

[0054] Optionally, the waterproof membrane 115 includes, but is not limited to, SBS waterproof membrane 115 or PVC waterproof membrane 115, etc.

[0055] To facilitate unwinding and rewinding, a second motor (not shown in the figure) for driving the reel 114 is mounted on the protective cover 113.

[0056] like Figure 5 As shown, the bottom of the first cabin 11 is recessed inward to form a fresh air zone 116, and an air conditioner frame 1161 is installed in the fresh air zone 116 for mounting the outdoor air conditioner unit 1162.

[0057] like Figure 11As shown, the air conditioner frame 1161 includes a fixed frame 11611 and a movable frame 11612. The fixed frame 11611 is fixedly installed on the first compartment 11 by screws, and the movable frame 11612 is adjustablely mounted on the fixed frame 11611. The outdoor unit 1162 is mounted on the movable frame 11612. Specifically, the fixed frame 11611 is provided with first adjustment holes a, and several first adjustment holes a are spaced apart longitudinally. The movable frame 11612 is provided with second adjustment holes b, and several second adjustment holes b are spaced apart longitudinally. In use, the fixed frame 11611 and the movable frame 11612 are fixed by mounting pins or bolts through the first adjustment holes a and the second adjustment holes b. When it is necessary to adjust the height of the outdoor unit 1162, the mounting height of the movable frame 11612 on the fixed frame 11611 can be adjusted by matching different first adjustment holes a and second adjustment holes b.

[0058] The technical means disclosed in this utility model are not limited to those disclosed in the above embodiments, but also include technical solutions composed of any combination of the above technical features. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and modifications without departing from the principle of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications are also considered within the scope of protection of this utility model.
