Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of children's vehicle technology, specifically to a folding vehicle frame. Background Technology

[0002] As a core tool for infants and toddlers' daily outings, the portability and storage efficiency of strollers directly affect the user experience. With the acceleration of urbanization and the popularization of multimodal transportation, the folded size and ease of operation have become key indicators for measuring product competitiveness.

[0003] The utility model patent document with announcement number CN221519747U describes a baby stroller. A rotating joint hinges the lower end of the upper handle to the upper end of the lower handle. A folding joint hinges the upper ends of the front legs, the upper ends of the rear legs, and the lower end of the lower handle. One end of a linkage joint is connected to the folding joint, allowing the folding joint to drive the linkage joint to rotate synchronously. The other end is hinged to the front and rear ends of the seat frame assembly, allowing the seat frame assembly to fold synchronously with the movement of the folding joint. A locking component unlocks or locks the folding joint, and a rotating joint unlocks or locks the folding joint. Through the coordinated movement of the locking component, rotating joint, folding joint, and linkage joint, the stroller can switch between an unfolded and folded state.

[0004] When the aforementioned baby stroller is folded, its armrests and seat frame components do not participate in the folding process, resulting in a loose shape after folding and wasted space. Summary of the Invention

[0032] Reference Figure 1-6This application presents an embodiment of the folding frame, which includes:

[0033] Foldable base frame 10;

[0034] The push handle 20 is hinged to the foldable base frame 10 via a locking mechanism, which is used to lock the push handle 20 onto the foldable base frame 10 and keep it in an unfolded state.

[0035] The seat frame 30 is hinged to the foldable base frame 10;

[0036] The first hinge 40 is hinged to the push handle 20 and the seat frame 30 respectively to limit the seat frame 30 to a horizontal position;

[0037] The armrest frame 50 is hinged to the push handle 20 and distributed above the seat frame 30;

[0038] The second hinge 60 is hinged to the push handle 20 and the seat frame 30 respectively to limit the push handle 20 above the seat frame 30;

[0039] The locking mechanism unlocks the push handle 20, the push handle 20 rotates backward, and drives the seat frame 30 to rotate backward through the first hinge 40. The seat frame 30 drives the armrest frame 50 to rotate backward through the second hinge 60.

[0040] See attached document Figure 1-2 As shown, the folding frame is in the unfolded state, at which time the foldable base frame 10 is supported on the ground, the push handle 20 is installed on the foldable base frame 10 through a locking mechanism, the seat frame 30 is limited on the push handle 20 by the first hinge 40, and the armrest frame 50 is supported above the seat frame 30 by the second hinge 60.

[0041] See attached document Figure 1 As shown, when the folding frame needs to be folded, the locking mechanism is unlocked. At this time, the push handle 20 can rotate relative to the foldable base frame 10. When an external force rotates the push handle 20 backward, the push handle 20 drives the seat frame 30 to rotate through the first hinge 40. When the seat frame 30 rotates, it drives the armrest frame 50 to rotate backward through the second hinge 60 until the push handle 20 rotates backward to be close to the foldable base frame 10. The seat frame 30 and the armrest frame 50 rotate to be close to the rear side of the push handle 20, thus completing the folding of the folding frame.

[0042] When the folding frame described in this application is folded, the linkage between the push handle 20, the seat frame 30 and the armrest frame 50 is achieved through the setting of the first hinge 40 and the second hinge 60, so that the seat frame 30 and the armrest frame 50 are folded synchronously with the push handle 20. The structure is more compact after folding, reducing space waste and helping to reduce the space occupied by the folding frame after folding.

[0043] Based on the above, the first hinge 40 is L-shaped and is disposed between the seat frame 30 and the push handle 20. The projection of the first hinge 40 on the vertical plane coincides with the seat frame 30 and the push handle 20.

[0044] In this embodiment, the handrail frame 50 includes two handrail fixing seats 51 and a surrounding rod 52. The two handrail fixing seats 51 are respectively hinged to the push handle 20, and the surrounding rod 52 is detachably connected to the two handrail fixing seats 51.

[0045] In this embodiment, the foldable base frame 10 includes a front wheel frame 11 and a rear wheel frame 12 rotatably connected to the lower end of the push handle 20. In use, the front wheel frame 11 and the rear wheel frame 12 are supported on the ground. After the locking mechanism is unlocked, the push handle 20 rotates backward and moves closer to the rear wheel frame 12 under the action of external force. The armrest frame 50 and the seat frame 30 rotate to fold with the push handle 20. When the foldable base frame 10 is picked up, the front wheel frame 11 and the rear wheel frame 12 rotate to move closer to each other under gravity to realize the folding of the entire frame.

[0046] This application does not specifically limit the structure of the locking mechanism, as long as it can lock the positions of the push handle 20 and the foldable base frame 10. For example, the locking mechanism adopts the structure of the first locking component and the second locking component as described in the announcement number CN222646088U, so as to lock the front wheel frame 11 and the rear wheel frame 12 in the unfolded state and lock the push handle 20 in the unfolded state. After the locking mechanism is unlocked, the push handle 20 can rotate relative to the foldable base frame 10. After the push handle 20 is folded, the foldable base frame 10 is lifted to realize that the front wheel frame 11 and the rear wheel frame 12 rotate and fold under gravity.

[0047] Based on the above, in this embodiment, the folding frame also includes a sunshade 70, which is mounted on the push handle 20 and located above the handrail frame 50. The sunshade 70 can be folded close to the push handle 20 or unfolded.

[0048] Before folding the frame, first fold the sunshade 70 close to the push handle 20, and then unlock the locking mechanism to fold the frame.

[0049] Specifically, the awning 70 includes a front awning rod 71 and a rear awning rod 72. Both ends of the front awning rod 71 and the rear awning rod 72 are hinged to the push handle 20 via rotation limiting mechanisms. The front awning rod 71 and the rear awning rod 72 can rotate relative to the push handle 20 and be limited in position to achieve sunshade. The hinged connection of the front awning rod 71 and the rear awning rod 72 to the push handle 20 via rotation limiting mechanisms, and their ability to rotate relative to the push handle 20 and be limited in position, is prior art in this application. Therefore, this application does not provide a detailed description of the specific structure and working principle of the awning 70.

[0050] Of course, this utility model is not limited to the above-described embodiments. Those skilled in the art can make equivalent modifications or substitutions without departing from the spirit of this utility model. All such equivalent modifications and substitutions are included within the scope defined by the claims of this application.
