Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a children's play enclosure. Background Technology

[0002] Children's play enclosures can be used as sleeping beds or daily play areas. When parents are busy or unable to supervise their children at all times, the enclosures can keep the baby in a safe area and prevent them from climbing into dangerous areas. When not in use, they can be folded and stored away, making them highly practical.

[0003] Existing children's playpen frames include a frame body with an unfolded position and a folded position, and a fabric cover mounted on the frame body. The frame body typically includes multiple support legs, multiple side rails that can fold in the middle and are positioned between the support legs, and a base support frame positioned between the bottoms of the support legs that can be folded in the center. In the unfolded position, the mattress is placed on the base support frame, and there is a distance between the base support frame and the ground. When a child leans towards one side and sits on one side, the mattress may lift up, and in severe cases, there is a possibility of the mattress tipping over.

[0004] Therefore, there is a market demand for designing a children's play enclosure that has a more stable and safer chassis during use. Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a children's play enclosure.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is: a children's play frame, including a frame body having an unfolded position and a folded position, and a cloth cover disposed on the frame body. The frame body includes multiple support legs and multiple folding frames. Each support leg includes a vertical tube, a corner piece fixed to the top of the vertical tube, and a sliding piece located below the corner piece and slidably disposed on the vertical tube. Each folding frame is foldably connected between the corner piece and the sliding piece of the adjacent two sides of the support leg. A locking mechanism for locking the frame body in the unfolded position is provided between the corner piece and the sliding piece of at least one support leg.

[0009] In some embodiments, the outer side of the top corner member has a downwardly extending side cover plate, and a sliding member insertion space is formed between the side cover plate and the riser, with the locking mechanism disposed between the side cover plate and the sliding member.

[0010] In some embodiments, the locking mechanism includes a locking member that is elastically rotatable and / or slidably disposed on one of the sliding member and the side cover plate, and a locking position disposed on the other of the sliding member and the side cover plate. When the locking mechanism is in the locked position, the sliding member is located within the sliding member insertion space, and the locking member and the locking position are engaged in a latching engagement.

[0011] In some embodiments, the locking mechanism includes a lock that is elastically slidably disposed on the slider, a lock hole that engages with the lock in the side cover plate, and a lock guide portion formed by the lower part of the side cover plate gradually turning outward based on the lock hole, so that a finger gap is formed between the locking mechanism and the slider in the locked position.

[0012] In some embodiments, the cover includes a base pad that directly touches the ground, a cover wall extending upward from the periphery of the base pad, a top wall extending outward from the top edge of the cover wall, and a skirt edge extending downward from the outer edge of the top wall. The bottom foot of the support leg has a buckle for connecting and positioning the base pad, and the top corner piece has a buckle for connecting and positioning the top of the cover.

[0013] In some embodiments, an inverted U-shaped door zipper is installed on at least one side wall of the fabric cover, with both ends of the door zipper close to the bottom pad.

[0014] In some embodiments, the frame body is a quadrilateral enclosure composed of four support legs, and the locking mechanism is provided on at least two of the support legs at opposite corners.

[0015] The scope of this utility model is not limited to technical solutions formed by specific combinations of the above-mentioned technical features, but should also cover other technical solutions formed by arbitrary combinations of the above-mentioned technical features or their equivalent features. For example, technical solutions formed by substituting the above-mentioned features with (but not limited to) technical features with similar functions disclosed in this application.

[0016] Due to the application of the above technical solution, this utility model has the following advantages compared with the prior art: This utility model provides a children's play frame, in which the top corner piece and the two sides of the sliding piece of each support leg form a linkage mechanism with the corresponding folding frame. Similarly, the two sides of each folding frame form a connection mechanism with the top corner piece and the sliding piece of the corresponding support leg. That is, multiple support legs can be synchronously folded or synchronously unfolded through each folding frame, locking the corresponding top corner piece and the sliding piece, so that the folding frame is maintained in the unfolded position, and the support legs are stretched and limited.

[0025] A children's play frame, as shown in the attached image Figure 1-3 Appendix Figure 7 As shown, it includes a frame body with an unfolded position and a folded position, and a cloth cover 4 that can be detachably fitted onto the frame body.

[0026] As attached Figure 7 As shown, the children's play enclosure does not have the common base support frame. When unfolded, the bottom pad of its fabric cover 4 can directly touch the ground, allowing children to sleep and play on it, making it safer and more stable to use. An inverted U-shaped zipper 45 is installed on one side of the fabric cover wall 42 of the cover 4, with both ends of the zipper 45 close to the bottom pad 41. Unzipping the zipper 45 allows children to crawl in and out directly.

[0027] The stable deployment of the children's play enclosure frame mainly relies on the structure between the upper parts of the multiple vertical tubes 11. The detailed structure is as follows:

[0028] As attached Figure 1-6 As shown, the children's play frame of this utility model takes a quadrilateral frame as an example. The frame body includes four supporting legs 1, four folding frames 2, and a locking mechanism 3 that locks the frame body in the unfolded position.

[0029] Each support leg 1 includes: a riser 11, a corner piece 12 fixed to the top of the riser 11, a sliding piece 13 located below the corner piece 12 and slidably disposed on the riser 11, and a bottom foot sleeve 15 fixed to the lower end of the riser 11.

[0030] Each folding frame 2 is composed of at least one set of X-braces. In this embodiment, each folding frame 2 is composed of two sets of X-braces rotatably connected. Each set of X-braces is composed of a first support rod and a second support rod that cross and are pivotally connected at the intersection. The inner end of the first support rod of one set of X-braces is pivotally connected to the inner end of the second support rod of the other set of X-braces. The four outer ends of the two sets of X-braces are respectively rotatably connected between the two corner pieces 12 and the two sliding pieces 13 of the adjacent support legs 1.

[0031] The two sets of X-braces form a four-bar linkage mechanism. The unfolding and retracting movement of the folding frame 2 is linked to the displacement of the sliding member 13. When the frame body unfolds, pressing the folding frame 2 causes it to stretch laterally, which causes the sliding member 13 of each support leg 1 to move upward toward the top corner member 12, thus spreading the four support legs 1 apart. When the frame body folds, each folding frame 2 retracts laterally, which causes the sliding member 13 of each support leg 1 to move downward away from the top corner member 12.

[0032] At least one locking mechanism 3 is provided, with each locking mechanism 3 disposed between the corner piece 12 and the sliding piece 13 of the support leg 1. In this embodiment, two sets of locking mechanisms 3 are provided on two diagonally positioned support legs 1.

[0033] As attached Figure 1-4 As shown in Figure 6, the outer side of the corner piece 12 has a downwardly extending side cover plate 12b, and a sliding member insertion space 14 is formed between the side cover plate 12b and the riser 11. The locking mechanism 3 is disposed between the side cover plate 12b and the sliding member 13 of the two diagonally opposite support legs 1.

[0034] As attached Figure 6 As shown, the locking mechanism 3 includes a locking member 31 that is slidably disposed on the sliding member 13 and a locking hole 32 that is opened on the side cover plate 12b and engages with the locking member 31. When the locking mechanism 3 is in the locked position, the sliding member 13 is located in the sliding member insertion space 14, and the locking member 31 engages with the locking hole.

[0035] The locking mechanism 3 includes a lock 31 that is slidably mounted on the slider 13, an elastic element disposed between the slider 13 and the lock 31 to give the lock 31 a tendency to pop out, and a lock hole slot 32 opened on the side cover plate 12b. When the frame body is unfolded, the slider 13 with the lock 31 moves upward to its limit position and reaches the slider insertion space 14. Under the action of the elastic element, the lock 31 is inserted into the lock hole slot 32 and engaged, and the locking mechanism 3 is in the locked position. When the elastic element is pressed down to make the lock 31 disengage from the lock hole slot 32, the locking mechanism 3 is unlocked, and the slider 13 can slide downward.

[0036] The lower part of the side cover 12b gradually flares outward based on the lock hole position 32 to form the lock guide part 12b-1. The lock 31 also has a ramp, which allows the frame body to unfold and the sliding member 13 and the lock 31 to smoothly reach their limit positions during upward movement. At the same time, when the locking mechanism 3 is in the locked position, a finger gap 33 is formed between the lock guide part 12b-1 and the sliding member 13. During the unlocking process, the thumb presses on the lock 31, and the other fingers can be inserted into the finger gap 33 to pry up the lock guide part 12b-1, making it easier and more convenient to control the lock 31 to exit the lock hole position 32. After the lock 31 exits the lock hole position 32, the sliding member 13 may move slightly downward due to gravity, and the locking mechanism 3 will remain in the unlocked position.

[0037] After unlocking both locking mechanisms 3 at opposite corners of the frame body, as shown in the attached figure. Figure 2 As shown, two adjacent risers 11 can be pulled together. During the pulling process, each folding frame 2 is laterally retracted, causing the sliding parts 13 on each riser 11 to move downwards away from the top corner pieces 12, until the frame body is retracted as shown in the attached diagram. Figure 3 The folding position is shown. When unfolded, simply pull apart the adjacent risers 11 and press down on each folding frame 2 to extend them horizontally, causing the sliding parts 13 on each riser 11 to move upward to their limit position. The corresponding locking mechanism 3 automatically locks, and the frame body remains in the unfolded position.

[0038] As attached Figure 1 Appendix Figure 7 As shown, each corner piece 12 has a buckle 12a at its top for connecting and positioning the top of the cloth cover 4, and each support leg 1 has a buckle 15a on its bottom foot cover 15 for connecting and positioning the bottom pad 41.

[0039] The cover 4 includes a base pad 41 that directly contacts the ground, a cover wall 42 extending upward from the periphery of the base pad 41, a top wall 43 extending outward from the top edge of the cover wall 42, and a skirt edge 44 extending downward from the outer edge of the top wall 43. The skirt edge 44 covers the locking mechanism 3. When unlocking, it is not necessary to lift the skirt edge 44; the thumb can be placed on the lock 31, and the other fingers can be inserted into the finger gaps 33 to pry up the lock guide part 12b-1, thus easily and conveniently unlocking the locking mechanism 3. The top of the cover wall 42 has four tethers, and the four corners of the base pad 41 also have tethers, ensuring the cover 4 is installed stably.

[0040] To install the fabric cover 4, with the frame body locked in the unfolded position, place the fabric cover 4 into the frame body, tie the top rope of the fabric cover wall 42 to the corresponding buckle 12a, tie the rope on the bottom pad 41 to the corresponding buckle 15a, and then fold the skirt edge 44 down to cover each folding frame 2 and locking mechanism 3.

[0041] The above embodiments are only for illustrating the technical concept and features of this utility model, and are intended to enable those skilled in the art to understand the content of this utility model and implement it accordingly. They should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this utility model. All equivalent changes or modifications made in accordance with the spirit and essence of this utility model should be included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
