[0022] As shown in the drawings, Figure 1 and Figure 3 a recess 3 is formed in the mounting block 2, a rotating rod 4 is arranged on the mounting block 2 and the two ends of the rotating rod 4 are rotatably arranged on the opposite two sides of the outer wall of the recess 3, a handrail 5 is fixedly arranged on the rotating rod 4, the rotating rod 4 is arranged to facilitate the rotation of the handrail 5 in the recess 3, an adjusting assembly for adjusting the rotation angle of the handrail 5 is arranged in the mounting block 2, an installation cavity 6 is formed in the mounting block 2, one end of the rotating rod 4 slidably passes through the outer wall of the mounting block 2 and is rotatably connected with the inner wall of the installation cavity 6, the adjusting assembly is arranged in the installation cavity 6, the adjusting assembly comprises a ratchet wheel 7, a fixed rod 8, a pawl 9 and a first spring 10, the ratchet wheel 7 is fixedly arranged on the rotating rod 4, the fixed rod 8 is fixedly arranged in the installation cavity 6, the pawl 9 is rotatably arranged on the fixed rod 8 and the end portion of the pawl 9 abuts against the ratchet wheel 7, the cooperation between the pawl 9 and the ratchet wheel 7 can limit the angle of the rotated handrail 5, the first spring 10 is arranged in the installation cavity 6 and is used to push the pawl 9 to make the pawl 9 abut against the ratchet wheel 7, the first spring 10 is arranged to facilitate the pawl 9 to always abut against the ratchet wheel 7.

[0023] As shown in the drawings, Figure 1And Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the guide rail 11 is fixed on the inner wall of the mounting cavity 6, the guide groove 12 is arranged on the mounting block 2 and communicates with the inside of the mounting cavity 6, the adjusting rod 13 is slidably arranged on the guide groove 12 and slidably arranged in the guide rail 11, the movement direction of the adjusting rod 13 can be limited through the arrangement of the guide groove 12, the adjusting rod 13 is used for pushing the pawl 9 to make the end of the pawl 9 away from the ratchet wheel 7, the second spring 14 is arranged in the mounting cavity 6 and the two ends of the second spring 14 are fixed on the adjusting rod 13 and the inner wall of the mounting cavity 6 respectively, the second spring 14 is used for pushing the adjusting rod 13 to make it away from the pawl 9, the adjusting rod 13 is always away from the pawl 9 when the second spring 14 is in the natural state, and the second spring 14 changes from the natural state to the compressed state when the adjusting rod 13 moves and abuts against the pawl 9.

[0024] Working principle:

[0025] When the user needs to adjust the inclination angle of the handrail 5, the user moves the adjusting rod 13 along the guide groove 12, the adjusting rod 13 moves and compresses the second spring 14, and the adjusting rod 13 continues to move a distance after abutting against the pawl 9, so that the adjusting rod 13 pushes the pawl 9 away from the ratchet wheel 7, at this time, the handrail 5 can be freely rotated to the required angle around the axis of the rotating rod 4, and after the adjusting rod 13 is released, the adjusting rod 13 moves away from the pawl 9 under the action of the second spring 14, so that the pawl 9 loses the pushing of the adjusting rod 13, and the pawl 9 re-engages with the ratchet wheel 7 to complete the locking.

[0026] When the user needs to adjust the horizontal rotation angle of the handrail 5, the user moves the sliding ring 20 along the through groove 19, the sliding ring 20 pushes the third spring 22, the third spring 22 changes from the natural state to the compressed state, so that the limiting rod 21 at the bottom of the sliding ring 20 is separated from the limiting groove 18 on the disc 17, and then the user can rotate the mounting block 2 to the target position and release the sliding ring 20, the limiting rod 21 is inserted into the corresponding limiting groove 18 under the pushing of the third spring 22, and the rotation locking of the handrail 5 is realized.

[0027] Finally, it should be pointed out that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application and are not limited, although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solutions of the present application can be modified or replaced equivalently without departing from the purpose and scope of the technical solutions of the present application, and all should be covered in the scope of the claims of the present application.
