[0028] In view of this, the present invention aims to provide an installation component 1, which includes: a main body 11, with side plates 12 formed on both sides of the main body 11; a sliding groove 13 formed by the side plates 12 and the main body 11, the sliding groove 13 being able to engage with the support rod 2 of the folding trolley 4; a snap-fit ​​groove 121 formed on the side plate 12 on any side of the main body 11, the snap-fit ​​groove 121 being able to engage with the flange 21 provided on the support rod 2; and a connecting hole 111 formed axially on the main body 11, the connecting hole 111 being used for connecting the connecting rod 31 of the sunshade 3, so that the sunshade 3 can be connected to the folding trolley 4 through the installation component 1.

[0029] This utility model provides an installation component 1, including a main body 11, with side plates 12 formed on both sides of the main body 11. The side plates 12 and the main body 11 enclose a sliding groove 13, which can engage with the support rod 2 of a folding trolley 4. This achieves the connection between the installation component 1 and the folding trolley 4, improving the connection stability between the sunshade 3 and the folding trolley 4. A snap-fit ​​groove 121 is formed on any side plate 12 of the main body 11, which can engage with the flange 21 of the support rod 2. The engagement of the snap-fit ​​groove 121 with the flange 21 of the support rod 2 makes the connection between the installation component 1 and the support rod 2 more stable. Finally, a connecting hole 111 is formed axially on the main body 11 for connecting the connecting rod 31 of the sunshade 3, allowing the sunshade 3 to be connected to the folding trolley 4 via the installation component 1. This allows the installation component 1 to easily connect to the sunshade 3 without shaking or falling off, improving the user experience. To ensure a stable connection of the sunshade 3, this utility model includes an independent mounting component 1, which connects to the folding trolley 4 and the sunshade 3 respectively, enabling assembly between the two. This simplifies installation while enhancing the stability and convenience of the sunshade 3.

[0030] In this specific embodiment of the utility model, the main body 11 refers to the main part constituting the mounting component 1. The shape of the main body 11 is not limited; it can be cylindrical, rectangular, or a non-standard part. For details, please refer to [reference needed]. Figure 1Side plates 12 are formed on both sides of the main body 11. Specifically, side plates 12 can be formed twice on the main body 11 in the direction of the support rod 2 of the folding trolley 4, so that the side plates 12 and the main body 11 form a concave groove 13 for the support rod 2 of the folding trolley 4 to be engaged. The mounting part 1 can slide relative to the support rod 2 through the groove 13 so that the mounting part 1 reaches the engagement position. The specific shape of the groove 13 can be adapted to the shape of the support rod 2 so that the mounting part 1 can be better engaged with the support rod 2, so that the connected support rod 2 is more stable, and the sunshade 3 is also more stable. A snap-fit ​​groove 121 is formed on the side plate 12 on any side of the main body 11. The side plate 12 can be the inner or outer side facing the vehicle body. Corresponding to the snap-fit ​​groove 121, the support rod 2 is provided with a flange 21 that mates with the snap-fit ​​groove 121. When the mounting part 1 reaches the snap-fit ​​position, the snap-fit ​​groove 121 can snap with the flange 21 of the support rod 2 to realize the installation and mating of the mounting part 1 and the support rod 2. The main body 11 is axially formed with a connecting hole 111 facing away from the support surface. The connecting hole 111 is used for connecting the connecting rod 31 of the sunshade 3. The size of the connecting hole 111 matches the size of the connecting rod 31. This allows each connecting rod 31 of the sunshade 3 to be connected with the corresponding mounting part 1 to realize the connection between the sunshade 3 and the folding trolley 4. This allows the sunshade 3 to provide sunshade for the vehicle body of the folding trolley 4.

[0031] In one embodiment, the side plates 12 on both sides of the main body 11 are provided with snap-fit ​​grooves 121.

[0032] In this embodiment of the utility model, to make the mounting part 1 more adaptable and replaceable, the side plates 12 on both sides of the main body 11 are provided with snap-fit ​​grooves 121; when the snap-fit ​​is damaged, lost or aged, any mounting part 1 can be used to replace the mounting parts 1 on different sides of the folding trolley 4; that is, the mounting part 1 can be used regardless of left or right, achieving universality. The production of the corresponding mounting part 1 only requires the making of one set of molds, thereby reducing production costs.

[0033] In one embodiment, the snap-fit ​​groove 121 includes an opening 122 and a barb portion 123; the flange 21 can enter the snap-fit ​​groove 121 through the opening 122, and the barb portion 123 is used for snapping the flange 21.

[0034] In this embodiment of the invention, the snap-fit ​​groove 121 is configured with an opening 122 and a barb 123 to better engage with the flange 21 and prevent the mounting part 1 from detaching. The barb 123 of the snap-fit ​​groove 121 is L-shaped and has an opening 122 for the flange 21 to enter on the side of the side plate 12 away from the main body 11. The flange 21 can enter the barb 123 through the opening 122 and engage with the barb 123. The barb can be 180° or slightly greater than 180°. Since the mounting part 1 can be made of plastic, which has a certain elasticity, the flange 21 can still engage with the hook and has a certain self-locking function. After the main body 11 is installed with the sunshade 3 through the connecting hole 111, the flange 21 can be locked in the hook under the weight and tension of the sunshade 3, thereby ensuring the stability of the installation of the sunshade 3 with the folding cart 4 through the mounting part 1.

[0035] Furthermore, in order to enable the flange 21 to engage better with the mounting part, the side plate 12 has a chamfer between the opening 122 and the barb 123; the chamfer can guide the flange 21 from the opening 122 into the barb 123, and the flange 21 can enter along the opening 122, then along the side wall and then along the chamfer into the hook part, thereby realizing the assembly of the flange 21 with the mounting part. The chamfer guides the movement of the flange 21 relative to the mounting part 1 more smoothly.

[0036] In one embodiment, the bottom of the connecting hole 111 is provided with a through hole 112 that is radially smaller than the connecting hole 111; the mounting component 1 also includes a fastener that can be connected to the connecting rod 31 through the through hole 112 to fasten the connecting rod 31 in the connecting hole 111.

[0037] In this embodiment, a through hole 112 with a radial diameter smaller than that of the connecting hole 111 is provided at the bottom of the connecting hole 111. Specifically, the diameter of the through hole 112 can match the size of the fastener. The size of the through hole 112 is smaller than that of the connecting hole 111 to avoid affecting the fit between the connecting hole 111 and the connecting rod 31. The mounting component 1 also includes a fastener, which can be a fastening screw, a connecting pin, etc. The fastener can be fastened to the connecting rod 31 through the through hole 112 to secure the connecting rod 31 within the connecting hole 111, thereby further improving the stability of the sunshade 3 and enabling it to adapt to different weather conditions. For example, in light wind weather, the connecting rod 31 can be directly fitted with the connecting hole 111; in windy weather, after the connecting rod 31 is fitted with the connecting hole 111, the fastener can be used to tighten the connecting rod 31 to improve the stability of the sunshade 3 and cope with windy weather.

[0039] In another aspect, this utility model also proposes a support rod 2, which is applied to a folding trolley 4. The support rod 2 is used to engage with the sliding groove 13 formed by the mounting body 11 and the side plate 12. At least one flange 21 is formed on the support rod 2. The flange 21 is used to engage with the engaging groove 121 of the mounting body 1, so that the support rod 2 can be connected to the sunshade 3 through the mounting body 1.

[0040] In this embodiment of the utility model, the support rod 2 refers to a component of the folding trolley 4, specifically the support rod 2 located on the periphery of the folding trolley 4's bracket. Preferably, when the folding trolley 4 is cuboid, the support rod 2 is preferably located at one of the four side edges of the folding trolley 4. The structure of the support rod 2 is not limited; preferably, it can be a square tube or a round tube; a square tube provides a more stable connection with the mounting component 1. At least one flange 21 can be connected to the inner and / or outer sides of the folding trolley 4 for engagement with the snap-fit ​​groove 121 of the mounting component 1. This allows the sunshade 3 to be assembled by connecting it to the support rod 2 of the folding trolley 4 via the mounting component 1 after connection with the mounting component 1. Furthermore, since the mounting component 1 has snap-fit ​​grooves 121 on both sides, the flange 21 can be located on either side of the support rod 2 or on both sides of the support rod 2.

[0041] The flange 21 can be a cylindrical ring structure fastened to the support rod 2 by fasteners, such as connecting screws; it can also be connected to the support rod 2 by riveting or other means, or it can be directly formed on the support rod 2.

[0042] In one embodiment, the support rod 2 is provided with a plurality of flanges 21; the flanges 21 are arranged sequentially along the axial direction.

[0043] In this embodiment of the invention, to enable the height of the sunshade 3 to be adjustable, multiple flanges 21 can be provided on the support rod 2 of the sunshade 3. These flanges 21 can be arranged in an array along the axial direction, with the distance between two flanges 21 being sufficient for the mounting component 1 to mate. This allows for height adjustment of the sunshade 3, improving the user experience.

[0044] Furthermore, in one embodiment, one side of the flange 21 can also be connected to the trolley link 41; when the locking groove 121 engages with the flange 21, the link 41 can prevent the locking member from moving laterally relative to the support rod 2. The link 41 can be connected to the frame of the folding trolley 4, and can be used in conjunction with the frame for unfolding and folding, so as to simplify the overall structure.
