Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to a children's product, and more particularly to a mounting structure for supporting a baby carrier in a stroller. Background Technology
[0002] Existing strollers have frames that can accommodate infant carriers. For example, patent document CN103359141A discloses a stroller and its frame. In this case, the frame has at least two fixing points to engage the front and rear bottom of a car seat. This engaging structure restricts the structure of the frame and the corresponding fabric cover; for example, additional holes need to be cut into the fabric cover to avoid the locking mechanism. Furthermore, installing and removing the car seat requires operating two locking mechanisms, one located at the rear of the bottom and the other at the front. After unlocking the locking mechanisms, the infant carrier needs to be lifted, but because the two locking mechanisms are far apart, both hands are required, making it impossible to remove the infant carrier by one person. Alternatively, at least one locking mechanism could remain unlocked to allow for single-person removal, but this makes the locking structure even more complex. Utility Model Content

[0025] In this application, the terms "first," "second," etc., are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number or order of the indicated technical features. Therefore, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this invention, "a plurality of" means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise explicitly specified.
[0026] refer to Figures 1 to 3One embodiment of this application discloses a mounting structure for a stroller supporting an infant carrier, wherein the stroller 1000 includes a frame, the frame including two side frames 100 arranged opposite each other, a seat frame 150 arranged between the two side frames 100, and a front armrest 140 located in front of the seat frame 150 and connected to the two side frames 100 at both ends. Each side frame 100 includes a front leg assembly 110, a rear leg assembly 120, and a push handle assembly 130. The side frame 100 can be a foldable structure, for example, the front leg assembly 110, rear leg assembly 120, and push handle assembly 130 are hinged to each other as shown in the accompanying drawings. In the unfolded state, the front armrest 140 and push handle assembly 130 extend obliquely upwards to the front and upwards to the rear, respectively.
[0027] The infant carrier 2000 includes a front section 210 and a rear section 220. The front section 210 supports at least the infant's back and head, and the rear section 220 supports at least the infant's legs. A slot 211 is provided on the back side of the front section 210. The specific installation procedure is as follows:
[0028] The infant carrier 2000 is placed on the stroller 1000 from top to bottom, so that the front armrest 140 is engaged in the slot 211. Under the action of gravity, the rear part 220 of the infant carrier 2000 rests against the two push handle assemblies 130 to stably support the infant carrier 2000. The infant carrier 2000 is located above the seat frame 150 and the two are spaced apart and do not touch each other, so that the push handle assembly 130 can abut against and support the rear part 220.
[0029] During disassembly, the latching position at the front 210 is released, and the infant carrier 2000 is lifted to separate it from the stroller 1000. Compared to existing technology, the connection position between the infant carrier 2000 and the stroller 1000 is different, and there is one less latching position during disassembly, allowing for single-person disassembly and making the operation more convenient. Preferably, the infant carrier 2000 includes a handle 230 that can rotate about a horizontal axis. The handle 230 has a generally vertical use position and a storage position that converges towards the front 210. During installation and disassembly, and when moving the infant carrier 2000, the handle 230 switches to the use position for easy gripping.
[0030] In one embodiment, a locking mechanism is provided between the front armrest 140 and the infant carrier 2000. In the locked state, the locking mechanism restricts the separation of the infant carrier 2000 and the stroller 1000, while simultaneously improving connection stability. The front armrest 140 includes side bars 141 connected to the two side frames 100, and a locking seat 142 located in the middle of the front armrest 140, connecting the two side bars 141. The locking seat 142 is adapted to a slot 211 to restrict rotation of the infant carrier 2000. For example, as shown in the figure, the outer contour of the locking seat 142 is not circular, and planes 1421 are provided on the front and rear sides to prevent rotation of the infant carrier 2000.
[0031] The locking mechanism includes a locking member rotatably mounted on the back of the infant carrier, and a locking seat 142. As shown in the figure, the locking seat 142 has a locking hole 1422, and the locking member has a locking hook that is inserted into the locking hole 1422 in the locked state. The infant carrier 2000 also includes an elastic member acting on the locking member to keep it in the locked state; in this embodiment, the elastic member is a torsion spring.
[0032] To improve the stability of the connection, the mounting structure includes an anti-detachment component 160 connected to the side frame 100 and the infant carrier 2000. The anti-detachment component 160 has an engaged state that is simultaneously connected to both the side frame 100 and the infant carrier 2000, and a disengaged state that is separated from at least one of them. In the engaged state, the anti-detachment component 160 restricts the side frame 100 and the infant carrier 2000 from separating from each other. In the disengaged state, the anti-detachment component 160 allows the infant carrier 2000 to be disassembled.
[0033] In one embodiment, the anti-slip element 160 is a flexible webbing. The "flexibility" of the flexible webbing is reflected in its ability to bend, but it has poor or no tensile strength. Figure 3 A schematic diagram is provided showing the connection between one side of the frame 100 and one side of the infant carrier 2000. A flexible webbing is fixed to the push handle assembly 130 and has a loop portion 161 for hooking the infant carrier 2000. Preferably, there are two anti-slip members 160, each disposed on one side of the frame 100. The rear portion 220 of the infant carrier 2000 has a hook portion 250 adapted to the loop portion 161. The hook portion 250 has a through hole through which the car seat belt passes to secure the infant carrier 2000 when it is installed in a car seat.
[0034] The annular portion 161 is formed as follows:
[0035] a. There are two flexible webbings, and a connector is provided between the two flexible webbings. When in use, the two flexible webbings are connected to form a loop 161. In specific installation, one flexible webbing passes through the through hole and is connected to the other flexible webbing through the connector.
[0036] b. A flexible webbing is provided, which has a connector. During installation, the flexible webbing passes through the through hole and then connects with its connector to form a loop 161. The connector in schemes a and b includes two separable parts, such as Velcro or snap fasteners.
[0037] During installation and disassembly, after the infant carrier 2000 is in place, i.e., the front armrest 140 is engaged in the slot 211 and the rear part 220 rests against the push handle assembly 130, the flexible webbing is then connected to the hook part 250 of the infant carrier 2000. These two operations are independent and do not interfere with each other. Similarly, during disassembly, the connection of the flexible webbing to the infant carrier 2000 is first released, and then the disassembly operation described above is performed.
[0038] In one embodiment, the stroller 1000 includes a flexible fabric cover 170 (shown as a dotted line in the figure) connecting the two side frames 100 to form a seat. The flexible fabric cover 170 includes a seat cushion portion 171 fitted onto the seat frame 150, and a backrest 172 connecting to the push handle assembly 130 to support the child's back. The backrest 172 can move to avoid interference when the infant carrier 2000 is installed. Connecting pieces 1721 connected to the push handle assembly 130 are provided on both sides of the backrest 172. Hook portions 250 extend outward beyond the push handle assembly 130. In the figure, the hook portions 250 are located outside the area defined by the flexible fabric cover 170. The hook portions 250 do not interfere in the circumferential direction, facilitating the installation of the anti-slip component 160.
[0039] In the installation structure of this application, the front part of the infant carrier engages with the front armrest frame, and the rear part rests against the push handle assembly using gravity. The connection position between the infant carrier and the frame is different from the prior art, and the connection method between the rear part and the push handle assembly is not the existing snap-fit connection. This allows for single-person installation and disassembly, making the operation more convenient.
[0040] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined arbitrarily. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as the combination of these technical features does not contradict each other, it should be considered to be within the scope of this specification. When technical features of different embodiments are embodied in the same drawing, it can be regarded as the drawing also disclosing examples of combinations of the various embodiments involved.
[0041] The embodiments described above are merely examples of several implementation methods of this application, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the patent application. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this application, and these modifications and improvements all fall within the protection scope of this application.
