[0031] 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 skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

Figure 3 It shows Figure 2 Enlarged view of point A in the image. Figure 4This diagram shows the first mating diagram of the movable roller and the Y-shaped movable groove in this invention.

Figure 9 It shows Figure 8 Enlarged view of point D in the image.

[0033] The unfolding module includes: a mounting frame 1, two symmetrically distributed flipping brackets 2, and two drive cylinders 3; the two flipping brackets 2 are distributed around the bottom of the mounting frame 1, and the two drive cylinders 3 are respectively hung on two opposite side walls of the mounting frame 1, with the output end of any one drive cylinder 3 simultaneously connected to both flipping brackets 2; each flipping bracket 2 includes a connecting rod 21 and a tripod 22 located at both ends of the connecting rod 21, with a connecting plate 23 provided on the apex of the tripod 22, and a Y-shaped moving groove 231 provided on the connecting plate 23; the output end of the drive cylinder 3 is provided with a connecting part 4, which is inserted into the corresponding Y-shaped moving groove 231. When the drive cylinder 3 outputs power, the connecting part 4 moves along the inner wall of the Y-shaped moving groove 231, driving the connecting plate 23 to move, thereby causing the flipping bracket 2 to swing. In this embodiment, the unfolding module has two flipping supports 2 and two driving cylinders 3. The two driving cylinders 3 are located at opposite ends of the two flipping supports 2. When the two driving cylinders 3 work simultaneously in the same direction, they drive the flipping supports 2 to swing, changing the position of the flipping supports 2. The flipping supports 2 have a horizontal state and a vertical state. The flipping supports 2 are driven by the driving cylinders 3 to switch between the horizontal and vertical states to adapt to different usage scenarios.

[0034] Furthermore, the connecting part 4 includes an I-shaped connecting block 41, which has a connecting hole 411 in which the output end of the driving cylinder 3 is inserted. The I-shaped connecting block 41 consists of two rectangular blocks and one square block. The square block is located between the two rectangular blocks, in the middle region of the two rectangular blocks, and connects the two rectangular blocks into one unit. The connecting hole 411 is located on the square block, and the output end of the driving cylinder 3 is located at the center of the entire I-shaped connecting block 41, ensuring that when the output end of the driving cylinder 3 outputs power, the force can be evenly transmitted to the two flipping brackets 2, so that the two flipping brackets 2 can swing at the same speed.

[0035] Furthermore, the I-shaped connecting block 41 has movable rollers 413 and mounting holes 412. A bearing is located in the mounting hole 412, and the movable rollers 413 are inserted into the mounting hole 412 based on the bearing. Each I-shaped connecting block 41 has two movable rollers 413, which are respectively inserted into the Y-shaped moving slots 231 of the two flipping brackets 2. One of the two movable rollers 413 is located at one end of a rectangular block closer to the mounting frame 1, and the other movable roller 413 is located at the other end of another rectangular block away from the mounting frame 1. That is, the two movable rollers 413 are centrally symmetrical on the I-shaped connecting block 41 based on the rectangular block, ensuring that one I-shaped connecting block 4141 can drive the two flipping brackets 2 to swing simultaneously to the corresponding positions via the two movable rollers 413.

[0036] Furthermore, the connecting plate 23 is fixedly connected to the tripod 22 based on the fixed disc 24, and the fixed disc 24 has multiple circumferentially distributed fixing bolts. The fixed disc 24 is located at one of the apex corners of the tripod 22. Placing the fixed disc 24 at one of the apex corners of the tripod 22 can distribute the force to the three sides of the tripod 22, thereby reducing the pressure on a single support point. This helps to improve the load-bearing capacity of the tripod 22, enabling it to withstand more forces.

[0037] Furthermore, the Y-shaped moving groove 231 includes a first moving groove 2311, a second moving groove 2312, and a third moving groove 2313. The connecting ends of the first moving groove 2311, the second moving groove 2312, and the third moving groove 2313 are interconnected. The first moving groove 2311 and the second moving groove 2312 are symmetrically distributed based on the third moving groove 2313, with the first moving groove 2311 located below the second moving groove 2312. An arc-shaped limiting platform protrudes between the first moving groove 2311 and the second moving groove 2312. This limiting platform restricts the movement direction of the corresponding moving roller 413, preventing the moving roller 413 from moving autonomously from the first moving groove 2311 into the second moving groove 2312, which would cause the entire flipping bracket 2 to shift, thus ensuring the stability of the flipping bracket 2.

[0038] Furthermore, the fixed end of the first moving groove 2311 is an arc shape matching the moving roller 413, the fixed end of the second moving groove 2312 is an arc shape matching the moving roller 413, and the fixed end of the third moving groove 2313 is an arc shape matching the moving roller 413. The shape of the fixed end of the first moving groove 2311 matches the moving roller 413, preventing the moving roller 413 from colliding with the corresponding moving groove when it moves to the fixed end, thus avoiding deformation. This increases the collision area between the moving roller 413 and the corresponding moving groove, reducing the risk of deformation due to stress concentration after collision. This allows the moving roller 413 to maintain its shape during long-term use and ensures a stable rolling trajectory within the corresponding moving groove, guaranteeing smooth movement.

[0039] Furthermore, each of the aforementioned flip-up brackets 2 is equipped with casters 25. In this embodiment, each of the aforementioned flip-up brackets 2 is equipped with two casters 25, and the unfolding module has two aforementioned flip-up brackets 2, that is, a total of four casters 25. The four casters 25 are respectively located at the four apex corners of the unfolding module, forming a stable rectangular or square structure. This structure makes the center of gravity of the unfolding module closer to its geometric center, thereby reducing the risk of tipping over and improving overall stability. Each caster 25 serves as an independent support point, evenly distributed at the bottom of the object. This even distribution of support points helps to distribute weight, reduce the load-bearing pressure on a single wheel, and further enhance the stability of the unfolding module.

[0040] Furthermore, the caster wheel 25 is provided with a brake unit, which includes a brake pedal, brake pads, and a brake disc. The brake unit is used to restrict the rotation of the caster wheel 25 to achieve a braking function. The brake pedal and the brake pads are connected. The brake pads are driven by the brake pedal to abut against the brake disc or not in contact with it. When the brake pads are driven by the brake pedal to abut against the brake disc, and the brake pads are in contact with the brake disc, the friction between the brake pads and the brake disc increases, thereby increasing the force required for the caster wheel 25 to rotate, ensuring that the caster wheel 25 is fixed in its current position, thus achieving the vehicle locking function.

[0041] Furthermore, each of the aforementioned flip-up brackets 2 is also provided with a guide tube 26, and the guide tube 26 is provided with a bidirectional support rod 27. The unfolding module has two aforementioned flip-up brackets 2, that is, the entire unfolding module has two guide tubes 26. Each of the aforementioned guide tubes 26 is provided with two symmetrically distributed bidirectional support rods 27, the bidirectional support rods 27 are used to extend to abut against the wall, the two bidirectional support rods 27 simultaneously abut against the corresponding walls, and the two bidirectional support rods 27 provide support force for the entire unfolding module from the four apex positions, so that the unfolding module has sufficient support force to fix it in the corresponding position.

[0042] Furthermore, the flipping bracket 2 is made of metal. Preferably, the flipping bracket 2 is made of aluminum alloy. Aluminum alloy has a low density, which significantly reduces the overall weight of the bracket and lowers the power required for the drive cylinder 3 to flip the bracket 2. Secondly, a dense oxide film forms on the surface of the aluminum alloy, which effectively resists corrosion from the external environment, reducing the risk of damage to the flipping bracket 2 and extending its service life.

[0043] Specifically, because the flip bracket 2 is equipped with a bidirectional support rod 27, the weight of the end of the flip bracket 2 away from the drive cylinder 3 is greater than that of the end of the flip bracket 2 near the drive cylinder 3. Without external force, the flip bracket 2 will rotate due to the gravity of the bidirectional support rod 27. When the unfolding module is in a horizontal state, the output ends of the drive cylinders 3 on both sides extend to the end of their working stroke. At this time, the corresponding moving rollers 413 are located in the first moving groove 2311. The drive cylinder 3 fixes the corresponding moving rollers 413 in the first moving groove 2311, and the corresponding moving rollers 413 exert a force on the inner wall of the first moving groove 2311. The end of the flip bracket 2 away from the drive cylinder 3 is subjected to the gravity of the bidirectional support rod 27, and the force of the moving rollers 413 on both sides is the same as the gravity of the bidirectional support rod 27, keeping the flip bracket 2 in a horizontal state and stably extending and abutting the bidirectional support rod 27 towards the corresponding wall, providing sufficient support for the unfolding module.

[0044] When the unfolding module is in a vertical state, the output ends of the drive cylinders 3 on both sides extend to the starting point of their working stroke. At this time, the corresponding moving rollers 413 are located in the second moving groove 2312, and the drive cylinders 3 fix the corresponding moving rollers 413 in the second moving groove 2312. When the unfolding module moves on the ground using the casters 25, the ground exerts multiple anti-friction forces on the casters 25. After the casters 25 are subjected to multiple anti-friction forces, they transmit corresponding forces to the flipping bracket 2. The flipping bracket 2 tends to rotate in the direction of converting to a horizontal state due to this force. However, the corresponding moving rollers 413 exert a force on the inner wall of the second moving groove 2312 to prevent the flipping bracket 2 from rotating in the direction of converting to a horizontal state. This prevents the flipping bracket 2 from being converted from a vertical state to a horizontal state due to the anti-friction forces from the ground, which helps to ensure that the unfolding module remains in the vertical state.

[0045] When the unfolding module changes from a horizontal to a vertical state, the output end of the drive cylinder 3 moves towards the end of its working stroke, driving the corresponding moving roller 413 to move. When the output end of the drive cylinder 3 moves to one-third of its working stroke, the corresponding moving roller 413 moves from the first moving groove 2311 along the inner wall of the first moving groove 2311 to the third moving groove 2313, and moves to the fixed end in the third moving groove 2313, where it remains continuously positioned. As the output end of the drive cylinder 3 moves from one-third to two-thirds of its working stroke, and the corresponding moving roller 413 is positioned at the fixed end in the third moving groove 2313, the flipping bracket 2 continuously rotates around the corresponding moving roller 413 as its center. As the output end of the drive cylinder 3 moves from two-thirds of its working stroke to the end of its working stroke, the corresponding moving roller 413 moves from the third moving groove 2313 along the inner wall of the third moving groove 2313 to the second moving groove 2312, and moves to the fixed end in the second moving groove 2312. At this time, the unfolding module turns into a vertical state.

[0046] When the unfolding module changes from a vertical state to a horizontal state, the output end of the drive cylinder 3 moves towards its initial working stroke position, driving the corresponding moving roller 413 to move. When the output end of the drive cylinder 3 moves to one-third of its initial return stroke, the corresponding moving roller 413 moves from the second moving groove 2312 along the inner wall of the second moving groove 2312 to the third moving groove 2313, and then to the fixed end in the third moving groove 2313, where it remains continuously positioned. As the output end of the drive cylinder 3 moves from one-third of its initial return stroke to two-thirds of its initial return stroke, and the corresponding moving roller 413 is positioned at the fixed end in the third moving groove 2313, the flipping bracket 2 continuously rotates around the corresponding moving roller 413 as its center. As the output end of the drive cylinder 3 moves from two-thirds of its working stroke to the end of its working stroke, the corresponding moving roller 413 moves from the third moving groove 2313 along the inner wall of the third moving groove 2313 to the second moving groove 2312, and moves to the fixed end in the second moving groove 2312. At this time, the unfolding module is converted to a horizontal state.

[0047] In summary, this utility model, by setting up a flipping bracket and a driving cylinder, allows the flipping bracket to swing and change its position when both driving cylinders work simultaneously in the same direction. The moving roller at the output end of the driving cylinder is positioned in the Y-shaped connecting groove on the corresponding flipping bracket, ensuring that the moving roller can be installed in the Y-shaped moving groove and move along the inner wall of the corresponding Y-shaped moving groove to drive the connecting plate to move, thereby causing the entire flipping bracket to swing to a certain extent, so as to open or close the flipping bracket to adapt to different usage scenarios.

Specific examples have been used to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of this utility model. The description of the above embodiments is only for the purpose of helping to understand the method and core ideas of this utility model. At the same time, for those skilled in the art, there will be changes in the specific implementation methods and application scope based on the ideas of this utility model. Therefore, the content of this specification should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.
