[0019] Example

[0020] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 As shown, this utility model discloses a vehicle side awning lifter, including a fixed base frame 1, an adjusting frame 2, and an awning support rod 3. The fixed base frame 1 includes several sets fixed to the roof rack rod along the length of the vehicle. In this embodiment, there are two sets symmetrically distributed front and rear, forming a multi-point support structure, which significantly enhances the overall wind resistance and load balance of the awning device, avoiding deformation or loosening caused by single-point stress. A lifting vertical rod 11 is provided at the end of the fixed base frame 1 in the vertical direction. The adjusting frame 2 is slidably mounted on the lifting vertical rod 11 in the vertical direction. The bottom end of the awning support rod 3 is rotatably connected to the top end of the adjusting frame 2. A vehicle side awning device 4 is detachably mounted on the awning support rod 3 through a bolt assembly, supporting quick disassembly and replacement, and compatible with different specifications of vehicle side awning devices 4 (such as square / butterfly-shaped awnings) to meet the personalized needs of users.

[0021] The back of the adjustment frame 2 is provided with a sliding groove 21 that runs through the upper and lower ends. The lifting rod 11 is slidably inserted into the sliding groove 21 in the vertical direction. Several adjustment holes 12 are provided on the lifting rod 11 in the vertical direction. The sliding groove 21 is provided with a mounting hole 22. A mounting bolt 23 is inserted into the mounting hole 22. The mounting bolt 23 passes through the mounting hole 22 and the adjustment hole 12 corresponding to the required height position, and is fixed to the lifting rod 11 by the mounting nut.

[0022] The top of the adjustment frame 2 is provided with a hinge groove 23, and the groove wall of the hinge groove 23 is provided with a rotating hole 24. The bottom end of the canopy support rod 3 is rotatably installed on the rotating hole 24 through the rotating rod 31. The bottom end of the canopy support rod 3 is provided with several positioning holes 32 around the rotating rod 31 in the circumferential direction. An angle locking piece 5 is provided on the adjustment frame 2 and inserted into the positioning hole 32 to fix the current rotation angle of the canopy support rod 3.

[0023] The angle locking component 5 includes a connecting seat 51, a locking rod 52, and a rotating handle 53. The adjusting frame 2 has a fixed through hole 25. The connecting seat 51 is fixed to the outer wall of the adjusting frame 2. The connecting seat 51 has a first threaded hole 54 that extends vertically and communicates with the fixed through hole 25. The locking rod 52 has a first external thread 55 that is threaded into the first threaded hole 54. The top of the locking rod 52 has a rotating handle 53 that drives the locking rod 52 to rotate, causing the bottom end of the locking rod 52 to pass through the first threaded hole 54 and the fixed through hole 25 and insert into the positioning hole 32. The adjusting frame 2 has a limiter 26 to limit the rotation angle range of the canopy support rod 3.

[0024] In this embodiment, the positioning holes 32 include two sets, which are used to fix the rotation angle of the lifting vertical rod 11 when the canopy support rod 3 and the lifting vertical rod 11 are at 180° (horizontal unfolding) or 90° (lateral sunshade).

[0025] The fixed base frame 1 includes a fixed base rod 13, an L-shaped connecting rod, and a U-shaped buckle 14. The fixed base rod 13 is fixed to the roof rack rod 6. The L-shaped connecting rod includes a lifting vertical rod 11 and a mounting horizontal rod 15. The mounting horizontal rod 11 is parallel to one side of the fixed base rod 13. The wall of the mounting horizontal rod 15, located on both sides of the fixed base rod 13, has vertically penetrating mounting holes 151. The U-shaped buckle 14 is fastened to the wall of the fixed base rod 13, and its end has a second external thread 141 that passes through the mounting holes 151 and is threadedly connected to the second threaded hole of the rotating handwheel 16, thereby fixing the mounting horizontal rod 15 to the fixed base rod 13. The U-shaped buckle 14 adapts to different diameter roof rack rods 6, and the mounting holes 151 allow for slight lateral position adjustments to accommodate non-standard roof rack spacing. The rotating handwheel 16 enables tool-free quick locking, avoiding the cumbersome operation of traditional bolt installation.

[0026] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model, but the scope of protection of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the scope of protection of this utility model. Therefore, the scope of protection of this utility model should be determined by the scope of the claims.
