Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sunshade chair technology, and in particular to a bracket and a sunshade chair having the bracket. Background Technology

[0002] A sunshade chair, designed specifically for outdoor environments, primarily provides users with a comfortable seat to shield them from the sun. In scenarios requiring the rapid setup of rest areas for outdoor work, training, or leisure (such as field exploration, long-distance training, camping, and hiking), the sunshade chair, combining sunshade and seating / lying functions, has become a commonly used portable device. The core structure of a sunshade chair includes a frame and a chair skeleton connected to the frame. The chair skeleton is covered with a sunshade fabric. For ease of carrying and transportation, sunshade chairs typically employ a modular design. Assembly usually involves aligning parts, snap-fitting, or tightening bolts. The drawback is that during installation, users need to manually align the connection holes of multiple components, and tightening some clips or bolts requires considerable pressing or rotating force. For users whose physical strength may be limited in the above scenarios (such as people who are tired after fieldwork, users who have exhausted their physical strength after training, participants whose physical strength has declined during leisure hiking, etc.), the above operations may result in insufficient force, causing the clips to not be fully engaged or the bolts to not be tightened, affecting the stability of the bracket. For ordinary users with less strength (such as children, the elderly, and female users, etc.), the above operations are also difficult. The difficulty in installing the sunshade chair limits the target audience of the product. Therefore, it is necessary to improve it. Utility Model Content

[0023] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0024] like Figures 1-4 The bracket shown includes a support frame 1, see reference. Figure 1 The upper end of the support frame 1 is connected to several support pipes, and the support pipes are connected to a labor-saving installation structure 4. (See reference) Figure 2 The labor-saving installation structure 4 includes a lever 41, a spring-loaded latch 42, and an elastic element 43. The lever 41 is hinged to the support tube and can rotate relative to the support tube. Preferably, in this embodiment, the lever 41 is provided with a third connecting hole 46, and a hinge is provided in the third connecting hole 46. The lever 41 is hinged to the first support tube 2 through the hinge. When operating, the user holds the lower end of the lever 41 and rotates it with the hinge point as the fulcrum. The elastic element 43 is provided inside the support tube, and the side wall of the support tube is provided with a first connecting hole 21. At least a portion of the spring-loaded latch 42 is located in the first connecting hole 21 and abuts against the elastic element 43. Specifically, the elastic element 43 is a torsion spring that provides elastic force. The elastic element 43 has a tendency to cause the spring-loaded latch 42 to extend out of the first connecting hole 21. The side wall of the lever 41 is provided with a second connecting hole 4121 that cooperates with the spring-loaded latch 42. See reference. Figure 3 The buckle 41 is provided with a first latch 411. The user rotates the buckle 41 to connect the first latch 411 with the part to be connected. Specifically, the first latch 411 is U-shaped, which can better connect with the part to be connected and ensure a stable and reliable connection. In this embodiment, the part to be connected is the frame 6 of the sunshade chair. During the rotation, the spring buckle 42 contacts the inner wall of the buckle 41 and retracts under the action of the inner wall of the buckle 41, overcoming the elastic force of the elastic element 43. When the buckle 41 is rotated to the point where the spring buckle 42 is aligned with the second connecting hole 4121, the spring buckle 42 extends under the action of the elastic element 43 and falls into the second connecting hole 4121, thus locking. By using the lever principle, the installation is labor-saving and the installation efficiency is improved, making the whole installation process more convenient and efficient. Users can easily complete the installation work, which is suitable for users with less strength.

[0025] Preferably, in this embodiment, for ease of unlocking, refer to... Figure 2The labor-saving installation structure 4 also includes a button 44.

The second connecting hole 4121 passes through the first protrusion 412. At least a part of the button 44 extends into the second connecting hole 4121. By pressing the button 44, the spring latch 42 retracts against the elastic force of the elastic element 43, and the spring latch 42 disengages from the second connecting hole 4121, thereby unlocking the device. The operation is simple and convenient.

[0026] Preferably, in this embodiment, refer to Figure 1 The support tube includes a first support tube 2 and a second support tube 3. The first support tube 2 is connected to the labor-saving installation structure 4. The side wall of the first support tube 2 is provided with the first connecting hole 21, which penetrates the side wall of the first support tube 2.
