Detailed Implementation
[0032] This section will describe in detail the specific embodiments of the present invention. Preferred embodiments of the present invention are shown in the accompanying drawings. The purpose of the drawings is to supplement the textual description with graphics, so that people can intuitively and vividly understand each technical feature and the overall technical solution of the present invention, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0033] Example 1:
[0034] Reference Figures 1 to 11 This utility model provides a telescopic folding bed for RVs, comprising:
[0035] Installation cabinet 1 is located on one side of the carriage, and a sofa board 11 is installed on the installation cabinet 1.
[0036] Bed frame 2 is movably installed on mounting cabinet 1. A storage cavity 12 is provided below sofa board 11 for bed frame 2 to be moved into. A folding frame 3 is rotatably installed on the upper end of bed frame 2. A contact part 21 is provided on bed frame 2 for folding frame 3 to abut against and keep folding frame 3 unfolded relative to bed frame 2. Several support rollers 22 are rotatably installed at the bottom of bed frame 2 to abut against the bottom of the carriage. Soft pad assembly 4 is placed on bed frame 2, sofa board 11 and folding frame 3.
[0037] Fixing component 5 is installed on the mounting cabinet 1 and is used to fix the bed frame 2.
[0038] By folding the folding frame 3 onto the bed frame 2 and moving it into the storage cavity 12 under the sofa board 11, the folding and storage can be achieved. With the corresponding soft cushion component 4, it can form a sofa mode with the sofa board 11 as the main body. By moving the bed frame 2 out, when the folding frame 3 is not unfolded, placing the corresponding soft cushion component 4 on the folding frame 3 and the sofa board 11 can form a normal bed mode. After the folding frame 3 is unfolded and the corresponding soft cushion component 4 is placed, it can form a king-size bed mode. In addition to being adjustable in size, it can also switch between sofa mode and bed mode. While saving space, it meets the customer's needs for using sofa and bed, and improves the space utilization rate of the folding bed.
[0039] Example 2:
[0040] Reference Figures 1 to 11 In conjunction with the technical solution of Embodiment 1, in this embodiment, the cushion assembly 4 includes a sofa cushion 41 placed on the sofa board 11, a first cushion 42 placed on the bed frame 2, and a second cushion 43 placed on the folding frame 3.
[0041] The above-mentioned soft pads can be selected to form mattresses of different shapes depending on the bed frame 2 and its extension and folding states.
[0042] Specifically, the upper end of the bed frame 2 is provided with several first support rods 23 for supporting the soft cushion, and the folding frame 3 is provided with several second support rods 31 for supporting the soft cushion. After the folding frame 3 is folded relative to the bed frame 2, several first support rods 23 move into the intervals between several second support rods 31 and the upper end face of several first support rods 23 is flush with the upper end face of the folding frame 3. After the folding frame 3 is unfolded relative to the bed frame 2, the upper end face of several second support rods 31 is flush with the upper end face of several first support rods 23.
[0043] After the folding frame 3 is folded, several first support rods 23 move into the intervals between several second support rods 31, and the upper surfaces of the first support rods 23 are flush with the upper surface of the folding frame 3. After the folding frame 3 is unfolded, the upper surfaces of the second support rods 31 are flush with the upper surfaces of the first support rods 23. The height of the upper surfaces of the first support rods 23 remains constant after the folding frame 3 is rotated and unfolded. Based on the above structure of the folding frame 3 and the bed frame 2, the thicknesses of the first cushion 42 and the second cushion 43 are equal. The thickness relationship between the sofa cushion 41, the first cushion 42, and the second cushion 43 is as follows:
[0044] (Thickness of sofa cushion 41 + Height of sofa board 11) = (Thickness of first cushion 42 + Height of the upper surface of first support rod 23) = (Thickness of second cushion 43 + Height of the upper surface of second support rod 31)
[0045] It is beneficial for the sofa cushion 41, the first cushion 42, and the second cushion 43 to maintain a consistent height when forming mattresses of different shapes.
[0046] Specifically, the folding frame 3 is provided with a folding limiting plate 32 and an unfolding limiting plate 33 at both ends for abutting the soft pad. The unfolding limiting plate 33 can be folded and moved into the interval of several first support rods 23 as the folding frame 3 rotates. The folding limiting plate 32 can be unfolded as the folding frame 3 rotates and abuts against the abutting part 21 to maintain its unfolded state.
[0047] When the folding frame 3 is folded relative to the bed frame 2, the folding limit plate 32 and the unfolding limit plate 33 are used to abut against the first soft pad 42 or the second soft pad 43, which can effectively prevent each soft pad from accidentally falling off the bed frame 2.
[0048] Example 3:
[0049] Reference Figures 1 to 11 In conjunction with the technical solutions of Embodiment 1 and Embodiment 2, in this embodiment, a storage cabinet 6 is provided on the bed frame 2, and an opening is provided at one end of the storage cabinet 6. A cabinet door 61 for sealing the opening is rotatably provided at the opening.
[0050] By setting up storage cabinet 6, it is convenient to store cushion components 4 as well as bedding such as quilts and pillows, thereby further improving space utilization.
[0051] Example 4:
[0052] Reference Figures 1 to 11 In conjunction with the technical solutions of embodiments 1-3, in this embodiment, the fixing component 5 includes a locking block 51 and a toggle plate 52. The locking block 51 is movably installed on the mounting cabinet 1. The bed frame 2 is provided with two slots 24 for the locking block 51 to be inserted. The two slots 24 are located at both ends of the bed frame 2 respectively. The toggle plate 52 is connected to the locking block 51.
[0053] After moving the bed frame 2 to the designated position, force is applied to drive the actuating block to move the locking block 51. The locking block 51 is driven into the two locking slots 24 respectively to keep the bed frame 2 in the retracted or extended state, thus fixing the bed frame 2.
[0054] Specifically, the mounting cabinet 1 is provided with a limiting component 7, which includes a moving block 71 and a spring 72. One end of the moving block 71 is provided with a ball 711. The bed frame 2 is provided with two spherical grooves 25 for the ball 711 to move into. The two spherical grooves 25 are respectively aligned with two slots 24. The spring 72 is on the mounting cabinet 1 and pushes the moving block 71 to drive the ball 711 to elastically abut against the spherical groove 25.
[0055] Using the elastic force of the spring 72, the ball 711 can be driven to be inserted into the two spherical grooves 25 respectively, thereby limiting the retracted and extended states of the bed frame 2. Based on this limitation, the bed frame 2 is not easy to move accidentally, and it is convenient to fix the bed frame 2 with the fixing component 5.
[0056] Specifically, the installation cabinet 1 is equipped with a first magnet and a second magnet for attracting the toggle plate 52. The first magnet is used to attract the toggle plate 52 to keep the card block 51 inserted into the card slot 24, and the second magnet is used to attract the toggle plate 52 to keep the card block 51 away from the card slot 24.
[0057] By setting the first magnetic block 13 to attract the actuating plate 52 to keep the locking block 51 inserted into the slot 24, the locking block 51 can be effectively prevented from accidentally sliding out of the slot 24, thus improving the fixing effect on the bed frame 2. When it is necessary to move the bed frame 2, the actuating block is manually driven away from the first magnetic block 13. The first actuating block moves away from the magnetic field area of the first magnetic block 13 and moves to the magnetic field area of the second magnetic block 14. The second magnetic block 14 attracts the actuating plate 52 to keep the locking block 51 away from the slot 24, thus effectively preventing the locking block 51 from accidentally approaching the bed frame 2 and getting stuck in the slot 24, which would hinder the extension and retraction process of the bed frame 2.
[0058] In other embodiments, such as Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the mounting cabinet 1 is provided with a mounting slot, and a mounting block is fixedly installed in the mounting slot by screws. The adjustment component and the limit component 7 are both installed on the mounting block, which makes it easy to remove the entire mounting block from the mounting slot as needed and disassemble the mounting block to repair and replace the adjustment component and the limit component 7.
[0059] Example 5:
[0060] Reference Figures 1 to 11 In conjunction with the technical solutions of embodiments 1-4, in this embodiment, the installation cabinet 1 consists of an n-shaped structure composed of two vertical storage cabinets and one horizontal storage cabinet, and the sofa board 11 is located in the middle of the installation cabinet 1.
[0061] The installation cabinet 1, which consists of two vertical storage cabinets and one horizontal storage cabinet in an n-shape, allows for the placement of items in each cabinet, providing additional storage functionality and convenience for users.
[0062] Specifically, the bed frame 2 is equipped with an embedded handle 8.
[0063] Compared to the conventional extendable handle structure, the embedded handle 8 structure not only makes it easy to pull the bed frame 2, but also has a handle that can effectively prevent users from bumping or hitting it, reducing space occupation and improving safety performance.
[0064] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and does not constitute any limitation on this utility model. Any person skilled in the art can make many possible variations and modifications to the technical solution of this utility model, or modify it into equivalent embodiments, without departing from the scope of the technical solution of this utility model. Therefore, any modifications, equivalent changes, and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technology of this utility model without departing from the scope of the technical solution of this utility model shall fall within the protection scope of this technical solution.
