Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of sunshades, specifically to a flip-up sunshade structure. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, commonly used sunshades typically include a mounting bracket 1 and a top plate 2, such as Figure 6 As shown, because the mounting bracket 1 and the top plate 2 are designed separately, if they were directly assembled and packaged for transportation, they would require a lot of space, and their irregular shape would also make packaging difficult. Therefore, the mounting bracket 1 and the top plate 2 must be packaged separately to reduce the space occupied, and then assembled on-site. This increases packaging costs and requires a significant amount of time for on-site assembly, making the entire assembly process cumbersome, time-consuming, and labor-intensive. Utility Model Content
[0003] Therefore, in order to solve the problems of high packaging costs and cumbersome assembly mentioned above, this utility model provides a flip-up sunshade structure.

The top plate and the mounting bracket are configured such that when the first snap-fit part is located at the end of the second support hole away from the connecting hole, and the second snap-fit part is located at the end of the auxiliary limiting hole away from the snap-fit opening, the top plate and the mounting bracket are stored in a parallel state.
[0012] Optionally, the second locking part includes a second bolt and a second nut. The second bolt passes through the first abutment plate and is threadedly connected to the second nut.

[0024] To further illustrate the various embodiments, the present invention provides accompanying drawings. These drawings are part of the disclosure of the present invention and are mainly used to illustrate the embodiments, and can be used in conjunction with the relevant descriptions in the specification to explain the operating principles of the embodiments. With reference to these drawings, those skilled in the art should be able to understand other possible implementations and the advantages of the present invention. Components in the drawings are not drawn to scale, and similar component symbols are generally used to represent similar components.
[0025] The present invention will now be further described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0026] Reference Figure 1-5 This embodiment provides a flip-up sunshade structure, including a mounting bracket 1 and a top plate 2. For ease of description, the mounting bracket 1 is described in its vertical position in this embodiment. The mounting bracket 1 is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the top plate 2. The top plate 2 includes a main plate 21, a first contact plate 22, and a second contact plate 23. Two first contact plates 22 are arranged in parallel and symmetrically on both sides of the main plate 21, and the first contact plates 22 are perpendicular to the main plate 21. The second contact plate 23 is arranged on one side of the main plate 21, and both ends of the second contact plate 23 in the length direction are perpendicularly connected to the ends of the two first contact plates 22, and the second contact plate 23 is perpendicular to the main plate 21.
[0027] The mounting bracket 1 has an L-shaped cross-section and includes a first support plate 11 and a second support plate 12 that are perpendicularly connected to each other. The first support plate 11 has a first support hole 111, a second support hole 112, and a connecting hole 113. In this embodiment, when the mounting bracket 1 is in a vertical position, its length direction is vertical. Figure 3 The first support hole 111 extends along the length of the first support plate 11, the second support hole 112 extends along the length of the first support plate 11, and the connecting hole 113 connects the first support hole 111 and the second support hole 112. The second support hole 112 is located on the side of the first support plate 11 away from the second support plate 12 relative to the first support hole 111.
[0028] The first contact plate 22 is provided with a first locking part 3, which can move between the first support hole 111, the second support hole 112, and the connecting hole 113. The top plate 2 and the mounting bracket 1 are configured such that when the mounting bracket 1 is in a vertical state, the first locking part 3 can be locked into the lower end of the first support hole 111 under the gravity of the top plate 2, and the two ends of the second contact plate 23 in the length direction can respectively abut against the two second support plates 12, so that the top plate 2 is perpendicular to the mounting bracket 1 under the gravity and is in an open state; when the first locking part 3 moves sequentially through the first support hole 111 and the connecting hole 113 to the end of the second support hole 112 away from the connecting hole 113, the second contact plate 23 separates from the second support plate 12, and the top plate 2 can rotate around the first locking part 3, so that the top plate 2 can be parallel to the mounting bracket 1 and is in a closed state.
[0029] Thus, during transportation, the top plate 2 and the mounting bracket 1 are in a closed state, and the overall shape is relatively regular, which is convenient for packaging, saves a lot of transportation space, and reduces transportation costs. When installing the sunshade, simply fix the mounting bracket 1 to the wall with bolts, flip the top plate 2 to a horizontal state, raise it a short distance, and then snap the first snap-fit part 3 into the lower end of the first support hole 111. Through the contact between the second abutting plate 23 and the second support plate 12, the top plate 2 can be kept in a horizontal state under the action of gravity. The installation process is simple and quick.
[0030] Furthermore, refer to Figure 2 The first locking part 3 includes a first bolt 31 and a first nut 32. The first bolt 31 passes through the first support plate 11 and the first abutment plate 22 in sequence and is threadedly connected to the first nut 32. By tightening or loosening the first nut 32, the relative positional relationship between the first support plate 11 and the first abutment plate 22 can be locked or unlocked. When the top plate 2 is flipped to be perpendicular to the mounting bracket 1 and the first nut 32 abuts against the lower end of the first support hole 111, the first nut 32 can be locked, so that the first support plate 11 and the first abutment plate 22 are abutted and fixed, so that the top plate 2 will not move up and down under the action of external force and remains relatively fixed with respect to the mounting bracket 1.
[0031] Furthermore, refer to Figure 3 In this embodiment, the upper end of the first support hole 111 is flush with the upper end of the second support hole 112, and the length of the second support hole 112 is not greater than the length of the first support hole 111. Thus, during installation, the first snap-fit part 3 can be moved into the first support hole 111 by lifting the top plate 2 a short distance, making the operation more convenient.
[0032] Furthermore, refer to Figure 3 and Figure 5The first support plate 11 has a snap-fit opening 114 and an auxiliary limiting hole 115. The auxiliary limiting hole 115 is opened along the length direction of the first support plate 11. The snap-fit opening 114 communicates with the auxiliary limiting hole 115 and extends to the edge of the first support plate 11 in a direction away from the second support plate 12. The first abutment plate 22 is provided with a second snap-fit part 4, which can enter through the snap-fit opening 114 and move to the auxiliary limiting hole 115. When the second snap-fit part 4 is located at the end of the second support hole 112 away from the connecting hole 113, and when the second snap-fit part 4 is located at the end of the auxiliary limiting hole 115 away from the snap-fit opening 114, the top plate 2 and the mounting bracket 1 are stored in a parallel state. By setting the second snap-fit part 4 and the auxiliary limiting hole 115, the top plate 2 cannot be directly rotated around the first snap-fit part 3 in a direction away from the mounting bracket 1, thereby improving the stability of the top plate 2 and the mounting bracket 1 in the storage state. When it is necessary to open the top plate 2, simply move the top plate 2 along the length of the mounting bracket 1 so that the second snap-fit part 4 can be moved out of the first support plate 11 from the snap-fit opening 114 and the top plate 2 can be flipped around the first snap-fit part 3.
[0033] Furthermore, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 5 The second locking part 4 includes a second bolt 41 and a second nut 42. The second bolt 41 passes through the first abutment plate 22 and is threadedly connected to the second nut 42. When the second bolt 41 passes through the auxiliary limiting hole 115, the relative positional relationship between the first support plate 11 and the first abutment plate 22 can be locked or unlocked by tightening or loosening the second nut 42. When the top plate 2 and the mounting bracket 1 are stored in a parallel position, the first nut 32 does not need to be tightened, but the second nut 42 is tightened, so that the first support plate 11 and the first abutment plate 22 remain relatively fixed, thereby ensuring that the top plate 2 and the mounting bracket 1 are in a stable storage state. When it is necessary to open the top plate 2, simply loosen the second nut 42.
[0034] Furthermore, the top plate 2 also includes a third connecting plate 24, which is connected to the side of the main plate 21 away from the second abutment plate 23, and both ends of the third connecting plate 24 in the length direction are respectively connected to the two first abutment plates 22. The third connecting plate 24 improves the overall strength of the top plate 2. In this embodiment, the main plate 21 has a rectangular structure. In other embodiments, the edge of the main plate 21 away from the second abutment plate 23 can also be arc-shaped or other irregular curves.
[0035] Furthermore, the first contact plate 22, the second contact plate 23, and the third connecting plate 24 are all integrally connected to the main body plate 21 and are bent into shape with the main body plate 21. At both ends of the first contact plate 22 along its length, it can be fixed to the second contact plate 23 and the third connecting plate 24 by welding. By adopting integral bending and fixing the corners of the top plate 2 by welding, the strength of the top plate 2 can be further improved.
[0036] Although the present invention has been specifically shown and described in conjunction with preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that various changes in form and detail may be made to the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention as defined in the appended claims, and all such changes shall be within the scope of protection of the present invention.
