[0020] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0021] like Figures 1 to 4As shown, the simulated canopy includes a support frame 1, which includes four support legs 11 symmetrically distributed at four points and a canopy frame 2 hinged to the top of the support legs 11. The canopy frame 2 includes first support rods 21 that converge inwards, and the top of each first support rod 12 is hinged to a central connector 22.
[0022] The top of the support leg 11 is provided with a first connector 3; the first support rod 21 includes a first upper connecting rod and a first lower connecting rod that are hinged to each other. The top end of the first upper connecting rod is hinged to the central connector 22, and the tail end of the first lower connecting rod is hinged to the first connector 3; the canopy frame 2 can be unfolded and retracted relative to the support frame 1. When the support frame 1 is in the unfolded state, that is, the support legs 11 are far apart from each other, the canopy frame 2 is in the unfolded state; when the support frame 1 is in the retracted state, that is, the support legs 11 are close to each other, the canopy frame 2 is in the folded state, specifically, the first upper connecting rod and the first lower connecting rod of the first support rod 21 are folded downwards and close to each other.
[0023] A sliding member 4 is fitted on the outer wall of the support leg 11. A second support rod 23 is hinged to the inner side of the sliding member 4. The top end of the second support rod 23 is hinged to the lower connecting rod of the first support rod 21. During the process of the support frame 1 from the open state to the closed state, the sliding member 4 slides downward along the support leg 11, so that the second support rod 23 changes with the position of the sliding member 4 and the first support rod 21, specifically, it gradually moves downward and approaches the support leg 11. When the support frame 1 is fully closed, the sliding member 4 is located at the bottom of the support leg 1.
[0024] The upper end of the support leg 11 is provided with a limiting hole (not shown in the figure), and the sliding member 4 is provided with a snap-on limiting member that cooperates with the limiting hole. During the unfolding of the support frame 1, the sliding member 4 will slide upward along the support leg 11. When the support frame 1 and the canopy frame 2 are fully opened, the limiting member of the sliding member 4 cooperates with the limiting hole of the support leg 11 to lock it.
[0025] The support leg 11 is a hollow tube structure. A telescopic leg 111 is provided inside the bottom end of the support leg 11. A snap-fit limiting component is also provided at the bottom of the support leg 11. The support leg 11 and the telescopic leg 111 are fixed together by the snap-fit limiting component cooperating with the limiting hole on the telescopic leg 111, thereby adjusting the height of the support leg 11.
[0026] The first connector 3 has a first connecting hole 31 on its side. A rod 6 is inserted through the first connecting hole 31. The rod 6 includes a section a 61 and a section b 62. The connection between section a 61 and section b 62 is arc-shaped. The tail end of section b 62 is riveted to the second support rod 23. Section a 61 passes through the first connecting hole 31 and can slide within the first connecting hole 31. During the unfolding of the support frame 1, section a 61 gradually extends out of the first connecting hole 31 to the outside of the support frame 1. When the support frame 1 is fully unfolded, the connection between section a 61 and section b 62 mates with the first connecting hole 31, and section a 61 is parallel to the first support rod 21. When the support frame 1 is retracted, section a 61 slides along the first connecting hole 31 to the inside of the support frame 1. When the support frame 1 is fully retracted, the top end of section a 61 mates with the first connecting hole 31.
[0027] The canopy frame 2 includes a first retractable support frame 24 and a second retractable support frame 25 disposed between adjacent support legs 11. The first retractable support frame 24 and the second retractable support frame 25 are disposed adjacent to each other, and there are two of each type of first retractable support frame 24 and the second retractable support frame 25, which are disposed opposite to each other.
[0028] The first retractable support frame 24 includes multiple X-shaped retractable units that are hinged to each other. In this embodiment, the first retractable support frame 24 has three X-shaped retractable units. The upper and lower ends of the retractable units at both ends of the first retractable support frame 24 are respectively hinged to the first connecting member 3 and the sliding member 4. The second retractable support frame 25 includes multiple X-shaped retractable units that are hinged to each other. In this embodiment, the second retractable support frame 25 has four X-shaped retractable units. The upper and lower ends of the retractable units at both ends of the second retractable support frame 25 are respectively hinged to the first connecting member 3 and the sliding member 4. The first retractable support frame 24 and the second retractable support frame 25 can be unfolded and folded as the support frame 1 unfolds and retracts.
[0029] A connecting rod 26 is provided on the outer side of the upper connection point of the two adjacent retractable units in the middle of the second retractable support frame 25. A cylindrical locking block 251 protruding outward is provided on the outer side of the lower connection point. A top cover extending outward is provided on the top of the locking slot. The lower end of the connecting rod 26 is provided with a locking slot 261 that cooperates with the locking block 251. The cross-section of the second retractable support frame 25 is an isosceles triangle. The function of the connecting rod 26 is to provide an intermediate support point for the second retractable support frame 25 when the imitation roof is fully extended, cooperating with the locking block 251, making the entire structure more stable and able to withstand greater loads. A second connecting piece 5 is connected on the inner side of the upper connection point of the two adjacent retractable units in the middle of the second retractable support frame 25. The second connecting piece 5 is at the same height as the central connecting piece 22. The second connecting piece 5 and the central connecting piece 22 are hinged together. There is a third support rod 27, which is set parallel to the ground. The third support rod 27 includes a second upper connecting rod and a second lower connecting rod that are hinged to each other. The top end of the second upper connecting rod is hinged to the central connecting member 22, and the tail end is hinged to the top end of the second lower connecting rod. The tail end of the second lower connecting rod is hinged to the second connecting member 5. A fourth support rod 28 is hinged to the inner side of the lower end connection point of two adjacent retractable units in the middle of the second retractable support frame 25. The top end of the fourth support rod 28 is hinged to the second lower connecting rod of the third connecting rod 27. The third support rod 27 and the fourth support rod 28 can be unfolded and folded as the support frame 1 unfolds and retracts. When the support frame 1 is folded, the second upper connecting rod and the second lower connecting rod of the third support rod 27 move downward towards each other, and the fourth support rod 28 moves downward and approaches the connecting rod 26.
[0030] The second connector 5 has a second connecting hole 51 on its side; a rod 6 is also inserted into the second connecting hole 51. The tail end of the b-section rod 62 of the rod 6 is riveted to the fourth support rod 28. The a-section rod 61 passes through the second connecting hole 51 and can slide within the second connecting hole 51. During the unfolding of the support frame 1, the a-section rod 61 gradually extends out of the second connecting hole 51 to the outside of the support frame 1. When the support frame 1 is fully unfolded, the connection between the a-section rod 61 and the b-section rod 62 mates with the second connecting hole 51, and the a-section rod 61 is parallel to the third support rod 27. When the support frame 1 is retracted, the a-section rod 61 slides along the second connecting hole 51 to the inside of the support frame 1. When the support frame 1 is fully retracted, the a-section rod 61 mates with the second connecting hole 51.
[0031] This utility model of a simulated roof features a first connecting hole 31 and a second connecting hole 51 on the first connecting member 3. The end of a rod 6 inserted at the first connecting hole 31 is riveted to the second support rod 23, and the end of a rod 6 inserted at the second connecting hole 51 is riveted to the fourth support rod 28. The rod 6 further enhances the stability of the simulated roof. The upper end of the rod 6 passes through both the first connecting hole 31 and the second connecting hole 51. The upper end of the rod 6 automatically slides across the first connecting hole 31 and the second connecting hole 51 as the support frame 1 unfolds and retracts. Furthermore, when the support frame 1 is fully extended... After opening, the insert rod 6 is parallel to the first support rod 21 or the third support rod 27, ensuring the aesthetics after unfolding. During the unfolding process of the support frame 1, the sliding part 4 slides upward, driving the second support rod 23 to unfold upward. As the second support rod 23 moves upward, it will drive the first support rod 21 to unfold. Therefore, when the sliding part 4 moves upward, the canopy frame 2 will automatically unfold along with the second support rod 23. Since the second support rod 23 and the insert rod 6 are rigidly connected, the canopy frame 2 will be fully unfolded after the sliding part 4 is in place, without the need for manual adjustment.
