[0001] This utility model relates to the field of rod connection technology, and specifically to a connection component for support rods. Background Technology

[0002] Current mosquito nets, tents, and other similar structures are supported by frames made up of multiple poles or tubes. These poles or tubes are often connected using elastic elements (such as springs), but this method can easily lead to twisting of the poles or tubes. Some poles or tubes are also connected using fittings to create a foldable structure. However, these fittings are complex, bulky, costly to manufacture, and cumbersome to operate. Utility Model Content

[0003] To overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies, a connecting assembly for support rods is provided to solve the problems of complex structure and high manufacturing cost of connecting accessories for existing mosquito nets, tents, and other support frames.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, a connection assembly for a support member is provided, comprising: Two connectors, each connector having opposing mating ends and connecting ends for connecting support rods, the mating ends of the two connectors being hinged together; An anti-twist plug is formed on the mating end of one connector and a limiting groove is formed on the end face of the mating end of the other connector. The anti-twist plug is detachably embedded in the limiting groove. A rocker arm has a first notch formed on one side of the mating end of another connector, and a locking portion is formed in the first notch. The rocker arm has a first end and a second end opposite to each other. The first end has a hook portion. The middle part of the rocker arm is rotatably mounted on one side of the mating end of a connector. An elastic support member for pushing the first end of the rocker arm into the first notch so that the hook portion hooks onto the locking portion is installed between the second end and the mating end of the connector.

[0005] Furthermore, the mating ends of the two connectors are hinged together via a first hinge shaft.

[0006] Furthermore, the mating end is formed with an ear plate, and the ear plate has a shaft hole, through which the first hinge shaft is rotatably inserted.

[0007] Furthermore, the first hinge shaft and the rocker arm are disposed on opposite sides of the mating end of the connector.

[0008] Furthermore, a second notch is formed on one side of the mating end of the connector, and the middle part and the second end of the rocker piece are movably disposed in the second notch.

[0009] Furthermore, a support is formed in the middle of the rocker piece, and the support is rotatably mounted in the second notch via a second hinge shaft.

[0010] Furthermore, the elastic support member is a spring.

[0011] Furthermore, the second notch and the first end form receiving holes, and the two ends of the spring are respectively installed in the receiving holes of the second notch and the first end.

[0012] Furthermore, the number of anti-twist plugs is multiple.

[0013] Furthermore, the connecting end has a socket for inserting the support rod.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: When the support rod connecting assembly is in the mating state, the anti-twist plug prevents the two connecting parts from twisting. During mating, the hook of the rocker arm on one connecting part engages with the locking part in the second notch of the other connecting part, preventing the connecting parts from folding under pressure (restoring their folded state). When folding is needed, pressing the first end of the rocker arm disengages the hook at the second end, allowing the two connecting parts to fold easily and neatly for easy storage. The connecting assembly of the support rod of this utility model has a simple structure, ingenious design, low manufacturing cost, and is easy to operate. Attached Figure Description

[0024] The present application will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the relevant utility model and not intended to limit the scope of the utility model. Furthermore, it should be noted that, for ease of description, only the parts relevant to the utility model are shown in the accompanying drawings.

[0025] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. This application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0026] Reference Figures 1 to 10 As shown, this utility model provides a connecting assembly for a support rod, including: a connector 1, an anti-twist plug 2, and a rocker plate 3.

[0027] In this embodiment, there are two connectors 1. Each connector 1 has a mating end 11 and a connecting end 12.

[0028] The connecting end 12 is used to connect the support member. Specifically, the connecting end has a socket. The support member is inserted into the socket of the connecting end. The support member and the socket are interference-fitted.

[0029] In some embodiments, the outer diameter of the support member is adapted to the inner diameter of the socket. The outer wall of the connecting end of the connector has an inner hole communicating with the socket. The opening of the inner hole is recessed towards the interior of the socket, such that the inner wall of the socket at the inner hole presses against the support member to lock the support member.

[0030] In some embodiments, the end of the support rod is formed with a socket, and the connecting end of the connector is inserted into the socket at the end of the support rod.

[0031] Support members include, but are not limited to, elliptical tubes, flat elliptical tubes, square tubes, and rectangular tubes.

[0032] The mating ends 11 of the two connectors 1 are hinged together. In this embodiment, the mating ends of the two connectors are connected together by a hinge shaft or a pivot.

[0033] An anti-twist plug 2 is formed on the mating end 11 of one connector 1. Specifically, the anti-twist plug 2 is formed on the end face of the mating end. A limiting groove a is formed on the end face of the mating end 11 of the other connector 1. The anti-twist plug 2 is detachably embedded in the limiting groove a.

[0034] In a preferred embodiment, there are multiple anti-twist plugs 2. In this embodiment, two anti-twist plugs are formed on the end face of the mating end. The cross-section of the anti-twist plug is rectangular.

[0035] The rocker arm 3 is elongated. A first notch b is formed on one side of the mating end 11 of the other connector 1. A locking portion 111 is formed within the first notch b. The rocker arm 3 has opposing first and second ends. A hook portion 31 is formed at the first end of the rocker arm 3. The middle part of the rocker arm 3 is rotatably mounted on one side of the mating end 11 of the connector 1. An elastic support member 32 is installed between the second end of the rocker arm 3 and the mating end 11 of the connector 1. The elastic support member 32 is used to push the first end of the rocker arm 3 into the first notch b so that the hook portion 31 hooks into the locking portion 111.

[0036] See Figures 8 to 10 As shown, where, Figure 8 The diagram shown is a structural schematic of the connecting assembly of the support rod of this utility model in a folded state. Figure 10 The diagram shows the structural schematic of the connecting assembly of the support rod of this utility model in the mating state. When transitioning from the folded state to the mating state, the other connector is flipped or rotated so that the end faces of the mating ends of the two connectors are positioned opposite each other. During this flipping process, the hook of the rocker arm extends into the first notch and presses against the locking part in the first notch. Then, the first end of the rocker arm flips towards the inside of one connector to compress the elastic support member (such as...). Figure 9 As shown). When the other connector continues to rotate and the two connectors are coaxially aligned, the hook passes over the locking part and hooks onto the locking part. At this time, the anti-twist plug is inserted into the limiting groove (as shown). Figure 10 (As shown).

[0037] In the mating state, the connecting assembly of the bracket rod of this utility model prevents the two connectors from twisting due to the anti-twist plug. During mating, the hook of the rocker arm on one connector engages with the locking part in the second notch of the other connector, preventing the connectors from folding under pressure (restoring their folded state). When folding is needed, pressing the first end of the rocker arm disengages the hook at the second end, allowing the two connectors to fold easily and neatly for storage. The connecting assembly of the bracket rod of this utility model has a simple structure, ingenious design, low manufacturing cost, and is easy to operate.

[0038] See Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the mating ends 11 of the two connectors 1 are hinged together by the first hinge shaft 112.

[0039] The mating ends 11 of the two connectors are respectively formed with ear plates 113. The ear plates 113 have shaft holes. The first hinge shaft 112 is rotatably inserted into the shaft holes of the ear plates 113 of the two connectors 1.

[0040] In this embodiment, the first hinge shaft 112 and the rocker arm 3 are disposed on opposite sides of the mating end 11 of the connector 1. Correspondingly, the ear plate is disposed on one side of the mating end of the connector, and the rocker arm is disposed on the other side of the mating end of the connector.

[0041] In a preferred embodiment, a second notch c is formed on one side of the mating end 11 of the connector 1. The middle and second end of the rocker member 3 are movably disposed in the second notch c. By forming a second notch on one side of the mating end to accommodate the rocker member, accidental contact with the rocker member during the mating state of the two connectors is prevented, thus avoiding the two connectors from returning to their folded state. Furthermore, the rocker member can be completely hidden within the connector through the second notch, resulting in a smooth and aesthetically pleasing appearance.

[0042] See Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, a support 33 is formed in the middle of the rocker member 3. The support 33 is rotatably mounted in the second notch c via a second hinge axis. Specifically, the support is located on the side of the rocker member facing the connector. The rocker member rotates about the second hinge axis in the support as a fulcrum.

[0043] As a preferred embodiment, the elastic support member 32 is a spring. For details, please refer to... Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the second notch c and the first end form receiving holes. The two ends of the spring are respectively installed in the second notch c and the receiving holes of the first end.

[0044] The connecting component of the bracket rod of this utility model can be applied to the support frame of mosquito nets or tents, enabling easy folding, storage, and folding of the support frame of mosquito nets or tents.

[0045] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and an explanation of the technical principles employed. Those skilled in the art should understand that the scope of the utility model involved in this application is not limited to the technical solutions formed by specific combinations of the above-described technical features, but should also cover other technical solutions formed by arbitrary combinations of the above-described technical features or their equivalents without departing from the inventive concept.
