Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of handcarts, and more particularly to a foldable handcart. Background Technology

[0002] In recent years, family outdoor activities have become increasingly popular, especially travel and camping. When engaging in outdoor activities, people typically carry many items, and families with children often bring strollers. However, the emergence of foldable strollers has made outings much more convenient. Foldable strollers can not only carry belongings but also provide a place for children to ride.

[0003] Existing foldable strollers generally include a frame, chassis, wheels, and handles. The frame and chassis are typically rectangular structures. The frame has a fabric cover for placing items, and the chassis supports the cover. The chassis is usually formed by the rotating connection of two side frames to allow it to fold. When folding, the two sides of the frame fold upwards from the rotating connection in the middle of the chassis, bringing them closer together. However, in existing technology, the chassis has to bear the weight of the items and is frequently folded, resulting in relatively weak overall chassis strength. When items are heavy or children are riding on it, the chassis is prone to deformation or even structural damage. After repeated folding, the rotating connection of the chassis may break.

[0027] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-6This application will be described in further detail.

[0028] This application discloses a foldable handcart. (See also...) Figure 1 The foldable trolley includes a chassis assembly 1, a frame assembly 2, and reinforcing components 3. The chassis assembly 1 is used for load-bearing. The frame assembly 2 includes two side frames 21 and other frame components. Both ends of the chassis assembly 1 are rotatably connected to the two side frames 21. The frame assembly 2 forms the frame structure of the foldable trolley. The two side frames 21 can be fitted with cloth covers for placing items. Two sets of reinforcing components 3 are provided. The reinforcing components 3 are connected to the bottom of the chassis assembly 1, and both ends of the reinforcing components 3 are rotatably connected to the two side frames 21. The reinforcing components 3 are used to increase the support of the chassis assembly 1 to improve the overall mechanical strength.

[0029] The chassis assembly 1 includes two chassis components 11, one end of which is rotatably connected to two side frames 21, and the other ends of which are rotatably connected to each other. Each set of reinforcing components 3 includes two reinforcing rods 31 and two folding arms 32. One end of each of the two reinforcing rods 31 is rotatably connected to the two side frames 21, and the other ends of which are rotatably connected to each other. The two folding arms 32 of each set of reinforcing components 3 cross each other, one end of which is rotatably connected to each of the two reinforcing rods 31, and the other ends of which are rotatably connected to the two chassis components 11.

[0030] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 Each chassis assembly 11 includes a pair of parallel support rods 111 and a support frame 112 fixedly connected between the two support rods 111. Figure 2 Taking the direction as an example, a pair of support rods 111 on the chassis assembly 11 near the handle are the first support rods 113, and a pair of support rods 111 on the chassis assembly 11 away from the handle are the second support rods 114. One end of the first support rod 113 and one end of the second support rod 114 are rotatably connected, and the other ends of the first support rod 113 and the second support rod 114 are rotatably connected to the two side frames 21 respectively.

[0031] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3A support frame 112 fixed between two first support rods 113 is called a first support frame 115, and a support frame 112 fixed between two second support rods 114 is called a second support frame 116. A pair of parallel reinforcing arms 12 are fixed to the side of the first support frame 115 facing the connection point of the two chassis assemblies 11. The two reinforcing arms 12 are parallel to the first support rods 113. One end of each reinforcing arm 12 is fixed to the first support frame 115, and the other end is coaxially rotatably connected to the first support rod 113 and the second support rod 114. The second support rod 114 is located between the reinforcing arms 12 and the first support rod 113, and is rotatably connected to both the first support rod 113 and the reinforcing arms 12. During folding, the first support rod 113 and the reinforcing arms 12 rotate synchronously, while the rotation of the second support rod 114 is opposite to that of the first support rod 113 and the reinforcing arms 12.

[0032] Furthermore, a fixing strip 13 is fixed at the pivot point of the reinforcing arm 12, the first support rod 113, and the second support rod 114. The fixing strip 13 fixes the first support rod 113 and the reinforcing arm 12, so that the first support rod 113 and the reinforcing arm 12 rotate synchronously, thereby improving the folding strength and stability of the chassis assembly 11 when folded. A fixing block 14 is also provided between the first support rod 113 and the reinforcing arm 12, which fixes the first support rod 113 and the reinforcing arm 12 to increase the connection strength between them.

[0033] A pair of parallel connecting arms 15 are fixed to the side of the second support frame 116 facing the first support frame 115. The connecting arms 15 are parallel to the reinforcing arms 12. One end of the connecting arm 15 is fixed to the second support frame 116, and the other end of the connecting arm 15 is rotatably connected to one end of the folding arm 32. In one specific embodiment, the support frame 112 includes several fixedly connected horizontal and vertical bars. The two ends of the vertical bars are fixedly connected to a pair of parallel support rods 111. One end of the reinforcing arm 12 is fixedly connected to the vertical bar of the first support frame 115, and one end of the connecting arm 15 is fixed to the vertical bar of the second support frame 116.

[0034] Reference Figure 4The reinforcing rod 31 connected to the first support rod 113 and the same side frame 21 is designated as the first reinforcing rod 311. The reinforcing rod 31 connected to the second support rod 114 and the same side frame 21 is designated as the second reinforcing rod 312. One end of the first reinforcing rod 311 and the second reinforcing rod 312 are rotatably connected to the two side frames 21, respectively, and the other ends of the first reinforcing rod 311 and the second reinforcing rod 312 are rotatably connected to each other. The first folding arm 321 is rotatably connected to the first reinforcing rod 311, and the second folding arm 322 is rotatably connected to the second reinforcing rod 312. The first folding arm 321 and the second folding arm 322 intersect each other. One end of the first folding arm 321 is rotatably connected to the first reinforcing rod 311, and the other end of the first folding arm 321 is rotatably connected to one end of the connecting arm 15. One end of the second folding arm 322 is rotatably connected to the second reinforcing rod 312, and the other end of the second folding arm 322 is rotatably connected to one end of the reinforcing arm 12.

[0035] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 5 The side frame 21 includes several horizontal and vertical columns that are fixedly connected. One end of the support rod 111 is fixed to the vertical column of the side frame 21. Each side frame 21 has a horizontal column located below the chassis assembly 11. The horizontal column located below the chassis assembly 11 is the first horizontal column 211. The first horizontal column 211 extends vertically toward the ground to a connecting vertical column 212. One end of the connecting vertical column 212 is fixed to the first horizontal column 211. One end of the reinforcing rod 31 is rotatably connected to the connecting vertical column 212.

[0036] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 6 The reinforcing rod 31 has a bend 313 at one end near the connecting vertical column 212. When folded, the bend 313 of the reinforcing rod 31 provides a space for the first horizontal column 211 to accommodate it. The bend 313 of the reinforcing rod 31 reduces the restriction of the first horizontal column 211 on the folding of the reinforcing rod 31, making it easier to fold and store the reinforcing rod 31.

[0037] Reference Figure 2 The first support frame 115, the second support frame 116, the two first support rods 113 and the two second support rods 114 form a hollow area 16, and a foot pedal can be installed below the hollow area 16 to increase the comfort of riding.

[0038] The implementation principle of a foldable handcart according to an embodiment of this application is as follows: one end of the first reinforcing rod 311 and the second reinforcing rod 312 are respectively rotatably connected to the two side frames 21, and the other ends of the first reinforcing rod 311 and the second reinforcing rod 312 are rotatably connected to each other. The first folding arm 321 and the second folding arm 322 cross each other. One end of the first folding arm 321 is rotatably connected to the first reinforcing rod 311, and the other end of the first folding arm 321 is rotatably connected to the connecting arm 15. One end of the second folding arm 322 is rotatably connected to the second reinforcing rod 312, and the other end of the second folding arm 322 is rotatably connected to the reinforcing arm 12. The first reinforcing rod 311, the second reinforcing rod 312, the first folding arm 321 and the second folding arm 322 provide further support for the chassis assembly 11, and can be folded and stored synchronously with the chassis assembly 11, thus increasing the load-bearing capacity and folding strength of the chassis assembly 11.

[0039] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
