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 of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0024] This utility model relates to an angle adjustment mechanism, such as Figures 1-3 As shown, the device includes a positioning disk 1 and a swing member 2 rotatably connected to the positioning disk 1 and capable of moving radially along the positioning disk 1. An arc-shaped groove 11 is provided on the positioning disk 1, surrounding the connection position of the swing member 2. Several arc-shaped slots 111 are provided along the inner sidewall of the arc-shaped groove 11, which are spaced apart and deepened towards the center of the positioning disk 1. For example, including but not limited to "U" shapes. A pin 4 is provided on the swing member 2, which extends into the arc-shaped groove 11. An elastic member 5 is also provided on the swing member 2 to drive its radial movement so that the pin 4 falls into the slot 111. In this embodiment, the elastic member 5 is a tension spring, which can provide axial tension force when the end is stretched.

[0025] Specifically, such as Figure 4As shown, a connecting shaft 6 and a sliding groove 24 are respectively provided between the opposing surfaces of the positioning disk 1 and the swing member 2. The end of the connecting shaft 6 is movably connected to the sliding groove 24. The connecting shaft 6 is vertically connected to the surface of the positioning disk 1 or its center, and its radial dimension is adapted to the width of the sliding groove 24, and its end extends into the sliding groove 24 so that it can rotate with the sliding groove 24 and slide along the length direction of the sliding groove 24.

[0026] Furthermore, the two ends of the elastic element 5 are respectively connected to the connecting shaft 6 and the pin 4 to provide a tension force pointing in the direction of the axis of the connecting shaft 6. It should be noted that, in its natural state, the elastic element 5 constantly tensions the swing element 2.

[0027] Furthermore, a threaded hole 12 is provided at the center of the positioning disk 1, and one end of the connecting shaft 6 is threaded into the threaded hole 12. The threaded connection between the connecting shaft 6 and the threaded hole 12 facilitates easy assembly and disassembly of the two components, and also facilitates the connection and disassembly between the swinging component 2 and the positioning disk 1.

[0028] Furthermore, a groove 24 extends from the other end of the connecting shaft 6, and a connecting ring 7 is fitted onto the extended end of the connecting shaft 6. A protrusion 71 is integrally connected to the periphery of the connecting ring 7, and the end of the elastic element 5 away from the pin 4 is connected to the protrusion 71. By extending the protrusion 71, the length of the elastic element 5 stretched in its natural state can be shortened, thereby improving the service life of the elastic element 5 and maintaining a long-lasting tension.

[0029] Furthermore, the swing member 2 includes a first swing arm 21 and a second swing arm 23 arranged in parallel, and an end arm 22 integrally connected between the first swing arm 21 and the second swing arm 23. A groove 24 is formed on the first swing arm 21. The surfaces of the first swing arm 21 and the second swing arm 23 are respectively provided with a first through hole 27 and a second through hole 28 that are respectively provided with an arc-shaped groove 11. The pin 4 passes through the first through hole 27 and the second through hole 28 to extend into the arc-shaped groove 11. Alternatively, the inner walls of the first through hole 27 and / or the second through hole 28 can be set as threaded structures, and threaded ribs adapted to the threaded structure can be formed on the periphery of the pin 4. By threading the pin 4 to the first through hole 27 and / or the second through hole 28, disassembly and assembly can be easily performed.

[0030] Meanwhile, to facilitate the assembly and disassembly of the second swing arm 23 and the first swing arm 21, the first swing arm 21 and the end arm 22 can be integrally connected. At least one set of threaded holes 25 and corresponding third through holes 26 are respectively provided between the opposite surfaces of the end arm 22 and the second swing arm 23. The second swing arm 23 and the first swing arm 21 can be detached by using bolts passing through the threaded connection between the third through hole 26 and the threaded hole 25.

[0031] The following is a detailed description of the specific operating scenarios of this utility model: (in conjunction with...) Figure 5 As shown, according to actual needs, several positioning holes 13 can be opened on the surface of the positioning disk 1. Using the positioning holes 13, the positioning disks 1 of the two sets of angle adjustment mechanisms can be installed on both sides of the auxiliary equipment 8 by fasteners, and the components on the auxiliary equipment 8 that need to be adjusted in angle can be connected between the swing arms of the swinging parts 2 of the two sets of angle adjustment mechanisms. The auxiliary equipment 8 can be, for example, a trolley, a seat that needs to be adjusted in angle, a sofa, etc. Taking a trolley as an example: connect the two ends of the trolley armrest 9 to the swing arms of the swing parts 2 of the two sets of angle adjustment mechanisms respectively. The positioning plates 1 of the two sets of angle adjustment mechanisms are respectively installed on both sides of the trolley body. By pulling the armrest 9, the swing parts 2 can move radially, so that the pin 4 is located in the arc groove 11 while the armrest 9 is rotated. By controlling the rotation position, the pin 4 is placed in the required locking slot 111. Then release the armrest 9. Under the action of the elastic element 5, it pulls the swing parts 2 to move radially, so that the pin 4 is locked in the locking slot 111, so as to realize the adjustment and fixation of the armrest 9 angle, thus facilitating use.

[0032] In scenarios such as seats, the positioning discs 1 of the two sets of angle adjustment mechanisms can be installed on both sides of the seat cushion, and the seat back can be installed between the swing arms of the swing components 2 of the two sets of angle adjustment mechanisms. Similarly, by pulling the backrest, the angles of the two can be adjusted to meet the needs.

[0033] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features.
