AI Technical Summary
The existing hammocks are inconvenient to adjust during use, requiring the connecting ropes to be untied before adjustment, which is cumbersome.
It adopts a structure of rotating shaft, ratchet, and pawl. The connecting plate drives the pawl to rotate counterclockwise, which in turn drives the ratchet to rotate. The rotating shaft winds and tightens the connecting rope, and the pawl's limiting function prevents reverse movement, thus achieving automatic adjustment of tightness.
It enables convenient adjustment of the hammock tension, allowing users to achieve the appropriate tension without untying the connecting ropes, thus improving ease of use.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of hammock technology, specifically a hammock with adjustable tension. Background Technology
[0002] Hammocks are lightweight and portable sleeping equipment used in outdoor activities. They are typically made by tying the materials used to make a hammock to a tree, allowing users to lie down and rest. Hammocks are classified into fabric hammocks and rope hammocks based on the materials used in their manufacture. Fabric hammocks are usually made of thin canvas or nylon fabric, while rope hammocks are usually made of cotton rope or nylon rope.
[0003] Hammocks are installed by connecting ropes on both sides to tree stumps or other supports to suspend them. Since the user stands on the ground when installing the hammock, and there is no weight on the top of the hammock, when the user lies on the hammock, their own weight will press the hammock down. However, since the connecting ropes of the hammock are fixed, it is often necessary to untie the ropes and adjust the tightness of the hammock, which is very inconvenient. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a hammock with adjustable tension to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a hammock with adjustable tension, comprising a bed sheet, and further comprising:
[0006] Connecting ropes are used to securely attach the sheets to both ends.
[0007] A support plate is set on the outside of the connecting rope. A rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the support plate. A through hole is opened inside the rotating shaft. The connecting rope passes through the through hole and is wound around the rotating shaft.
[0008] A ratchet is fixedly connected to a rotating shaft, a connecting plate is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft, and a pawl is rotatably connected to the connecting plate.
[0009] Preferably, a limiting plate is fixedly connected to the support plate, and the rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the limiting plate.
[0010] Preferably, a handle is fixedly connected to the connecting plate.
[0011] Preferably, a limiting block for limiting the ratchet is fixedly connected to the connecting plate.
[0012] Preferably, a spring is fixedly connected to the connecting plate, and the bottom of the spring is fixedly connected to the limiting plate.
[0013] Preferably, a gripper is fixedly connected to the bottom of the support plate.
[0014] Preferably, a connecting ring is inserted into the connecting rope.
[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0016] This invention involves passing a connecting rope through a through hole on a rotating shaft and winding it around its outer side. After the connecting rope is fixed, the connecting plate drives the pawl to move synchronously. The pawl pushes the ratchet to rotate counterclockwise. When the rotating shaft rotates, it winds the connecting rope tightly around its outer side. Due to the limiting effect of the pawl, the rotating shaft will not move in the opposite direction, thereby tightening the connecting rope and adjusting the hammock to a suitable tightness. There is no need to untie the connecting rope and then adjust the tightness of the hammock. Attached Figure Description

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0024] Please see Figure 1-5As shown, a hammock with adjustable tension includes a bed sheet 1, and further includes: a connecting rope 2, which is fixedly connected to both ends of the bed sheet 1, and the bed sheet 1 is fixed to a tree or other support point by the connecting rope 2; a support plate 3, which is set on the outside of the connecting rope 2, and a rotating shaft 4 is rotatably connected to the support plate 3. The rotating shaft 4 has a through hole 5 inside, through which the connecting rope 2 passes and is wound around the rotating shaft 4; ratchet 6, which is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 4, and ratchet 6 is fixedly connected to both ends of the rotating shaft 4. A connecting plate 7 is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft 4, and a pawl 8 is rotatably connected to the connecting plate 7. Each ratchet 6 is connected to a pawl 8.
[0025] It should be noted that: the bed sheet 1 is installed and adjusted to the designated position using the connecting rope 2, and the pivot 4 is located between the bed sheet 1, the connecting rope 2, and the support point, via the connecting plate 7, as shown. Figure 2 As shown, the ratchet rotates counterclockwise, causing the pawl 8 to move synchronously. The pawl 8 pushes the ratchet 6 to rotate counterclockwise. When the shaft 4 rotates, it wraps the connecting rope 2 tightly around its outside. Due to the limiting effect of the pawl 8, the shaft 4 will not move in the opposite direction, thereby tightening the connecting rope 2 and adjusting the hammock to a suitable tightness.
[0026] A limiting plate 9 is fixedly connected to the support plate 3, and the rotating shaft 4 is rotatably connected to the limiting plate 9. The limiting plate 9 is used to limit the connecting rope 2 wrapped around the outside of the rotating shaft 4 to prevent the connecting rope 2 from slipping off the rotating shaft 4. A handle 10 is fixedly connected to the connecting plate 7, which makes it easy for the user to rotate the connecting plate 7. A limiting block 11 is fixedly connected to the connecting plate 7 to limit the pawl 8. The limiting plate limits the pawl 8 to prevent it from moving in the opposite direction, thereby ensuring the limiting effect on the ratchet 6. A spring 12 is fixedly connected to the connecting plate 7. The bottom of the spring 12 is fixedly connected to the limiting plate 9. The spring 12 is used to prevent the connecting plate from freely rotating due to gravity or other factors, which would interfere with the rotating shaft 4.
[0027] A gripper 13 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the support plate 3. The gripper 13 works in conjunction with the handle 10 to control the stability of the support plate 3.
[0028] A connecting ring 14 is inserted into the connecting rope 2. By wrapping the connecting rope 2 around the tree stump and then passing it through the connecting ring 14 and tying a knot, the connecting rope 2 can be effectively prevented from becoming loose.
[0029] Working principle: The bed sheet 1 is installed and adjusted to the designated position using the connecting rope 2. The rotating shaft 4 is located between the bed sheet 1, the connecting rope 2, and the support point. The connecting plate 7 is used as... Figure 2 As shown, the ratchet rotates counterclockwise, causing the pawl 8 to move synchronously. The pawl 8 pushes the ratchet 6 to rotate counterclockwise. When the shaft 4 rotates, it wraps the connecting rope 2 tightly around its outside. Due to the limiting effect of the pawl 8, the shaft 4 will not move in the opposite direction, thereby tightening the connecting rope 2 and adjusting the hammock to a suitable tightness.
