[0001] The present invention particularly relates to a multifunctional vehicle. Background Art

[0002] Trailers and similar vehicles are commonly used to carry children and load cargo when traveling. In the prior art, trailers are generally used solely as trailers, limiting their functionality. For example, Chinese Patent ZL2007200466261 discloses a child trailer comprising a trailer frame, side wheels disposed below and on either side of the trailer frame, a tow bar disposed at the front of the trailer frame, and a shielding member disposed on the trailer frame. The trailer frame comprises a base frame, side brackets disposed above and on either side of the base frame, and a crossbar connecting the side brackets. A seat is disposed on the base frame. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a multifunctional vehicle with multiple functions in order to address the deficiencies in the prior art.

[0004] In order to achieve the above object, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is:

[0005] A multifunctional carrier comprises a base frame and a frame assembly arranged on the base frame; the carrier has a first usage state and a second usage state. When the carrier is in the first usage state, the frame assembly is located above the base frame and encloses a storage space with the base frame; when the carrier is in the second usage state, at least part of the frame assembly moves to be arranged in parallel with the base frame and together with the base frame forms a bearing structure for support.

[0006] In some embodiments, the frame assembly is rotatably mounted on the end of the base frame. The frame assembly can rotate as a whole relative to the base frame, and after the rotation, the side of the frame assembly rotates to a position parallel to the base frame.

[0007] In some embodiments, the frame assembly is rotatably mounted on the rear end of the base frame and has a rear frame. In the second usage state, the rear frame is rotated to connect with the plane where the base frame is located to serve as an outward extension of the base frame.

[0008] In some embodiments, the multifunctional vehicle further includes a support structure disposed on the frame assembly, and in the second usage state, the support structure is supported between the ground and the frame assembly.

[0009] In some embodiments, the support structure is disposed near a top of the enclosure assembly.

[0016] In some embodiments, the second seat assembly includes a second seat and a second backrest having a lower portion pivotally connected to the second seat, the second seat being pivotally and detachably or removably connected to the base frame;

[0017] When the carrier is in a first usage state, the first seat assembly and the second seat assembly are oriented in the same or opposite directions.

[0018] In some embodiments, the vehicle further includes a front fence bar assembly that can be rotatably disposed on the frame assembly. When the vehicle is in a first usage state, the front fence bar assembly can be rotated to a closed position close to the frame assembly. In the closed position, the front fence bar assembly blocks the front portion of the accommodating space of the vehicle. The front fence bar assembly can be rotated to an open position. In the open position, the front fence bar assembly rotates in a direction to open the accommodating space.

[0019] In some embodiments, the front fence rod assembly can also be slidably arranged relative to the frame assembly. When the vehicle is in a first usage state, the front fence rod assembly cannot slide relative to the frame assembly. When the vehicle is in a second usage state and the frame assembly is rotated as a whole to the rear of the base frame, the front fence rod assembly slides forward relative to the frame assembly and extends to the outside of the frame assembly, blocking the top of the base frame.

[0020] In some embodiments, the vehicle further includes a front fence rod assembly that can be slidably disposed on the frame assembly. When the vehicle is in a first usage state, the front fence rod assembly can slide relative to the frame assembly to open or close the front of the vehicle's accommodating space. When the vehicle is in a second usage state and the frame assembly is rotated as a whole to the rear of the base frame, the front fence rod assembly slides forward relative to the frame assembly and extends to the outside of the frame assembly, blocking the top of the base frame.

[0023] In some embodiments, the vehicle further comprises a front wheel assembly disposed at a bottom front portion of the chassis and a rear wheel assembly disposed at a bottom rear portion of the chassis.

[0024] The present invention also provides a multifunctional vehicle, which includes a base frame, a frame assembly with a accommodating space arranged on the base frame, and a third seat assembly. The third seat assembly includes a third seat connected to the rear portion of the base frame and a third backrest rotatably connected to the third seat. The vehicle has a first usage state and a second usage state. When the vehicle is in the first usage state, the third backrest extends in the up and down direction and is located in the accommodating space of the frame assembly; when the vehicle is in the second usage state, the third backrest rotates relative to the seat to be located outside the accommodating space of the frame assembly and is located behind the base frame.

[0025] Due to the application of the above-mentioned technical solution, the present invention has the following advantages over the prior art: When the multifunctional carrier of the present invention is in a first use state, the carrier's storage space can carry children and load cargo, making it easy and labor-saving for adults to go out. Moreover, the carrier's structural volume is relatively small, making it convenient to use. When the carrier is in a second use state, the carrier is used statically. Compared with the first use state, the carrier's carrying space is increased, and it can be used as other items such as a bed. This allows the carrier to have multiple uses, greatly improving its utilization rate and avoiding waste. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0062] The technical solution of the present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0063] In the following description, directions such as "front," "rear," "left," "right," "up," and "down" are all based on Figure 2 , where the left side of the figure is designated "front," the right side is designated "rear," the top side is designated "up," and the bottom side is designated "down." Directions perpendicular to the paper are designated "left" and "right." These definitions of directions are intended solely to facilitate the description of the present invention and simplify the description. They do not indicate or imply that the devices or components referred to must have, be constructed, or operate in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limiting the present invention. Example 1

[0064] As shown in Figures 1 to 33, the multifunctional vehicle of the present invention includes a base frame 1, a frame assembly 2 arranged on the base frame 1, a front wheel assembly 7 arranged at the bottom front portion of the base frame 1, and a rear wheel assembly 8 arranged at the bottom rear portion of the base frame 1.

[0065] The frame assembly 2 is movably disposed on the base frame 1 , such that the frame assembly 2 can move relative to the base frame 1 so that the carrier has at least a first use state and a second use state.

[0066] When the carrier is in the first usage state, the frame assembly 2 is located above the base frame 1 and encloses a child-carrying space with the base frame 1. When the carrier is in the second usage state, at least a portion of the frame assembly 2 moves to be arranged in parallel with the base frame 1 and together with the base frame 1 forms a supporting structure.

[0067] In this embodiment, the frame assembly 2 is rotatably mounted on the end of the base frame 1 . The frame assembly 2 can rotate as a whole relative to the base frame 1 , and after the rotation, the frame assembly 2 rotates to a position parallel to the base frame 1 .

[0068] Specifically, one end of the frame assembly 2 is rotatably connected to the rear portion of the base frame 1, and the other end of the frame assembly 2 is detachably connected to the front portion of the base frame 1. When the connection between the other end of the frame assembly 2 and the front portion of the base frame 1 is disconnected, the frame assembly 2 as a whole can be rotated backward relative to the base frame 1 to a position arranged side by side with the base frame 1.

[0069] In the present embodiment, a specific structure of an enclosure frame assembly 2 is provided. Specifically, as shown in Figures 1 to 33, the enclosure frame assembly 2 includes a lower enclosure rod assembly 21, a front bracket assembly 22 and a vertical rod assembly, and the vertical rod assembly includes an upper vertical rod assembly 23 and a lower vertical rod assembly 24. One end of the lower enclosure rod assembly 21 is rotatably connected to the rear portion of the chassis 1, and the other end of the lower enclosure rod assembly 21 is detachably connected to the front portion of the chassis 1. One end of the front bracket assembly 22 is rotatably connected to the other end of the lower enclosure rod assembly 21, and the other end of the front bracket assembly 22 is rotatably connected to the upper end of the upper vertical rod assembly 23. The lower end of the upper vertical rod assembly 23 is rotatably connected to the upper end of the lower vertical rod assembly 24, and the lower end of the lower vertical rod assembly 24 is rotatably connected to one end of the lower enclosure rod assembly 21. In this way, a four-bar linkage is formed between the lower enclosure rod assembly 21, the front bracket assembly 22, the upper upright rod assembly 23 and the lower upright rod assembly 24. The rods that make up the four-bar linkage can rotate relative to each other, so that the enclosure frame assembly 2 has an expanded state and a folded state, and can be converted between the expanded state and the folded state.

[0070] The vertical pole assemblies are respectively arranged on the left and right sides of the frame assembly 2, and a cross bar is also arranged between the vertical pole assemblies on the left and right sides. The vertical pole assemblies and the cross bar on the left and right sides form the rear frame of the frame assembly 2.

[0071] When the vehicle is in the first usage state, the frame assembly 2 is entirely located above the base frame 1, and the other end of the frame assembly 2 is connected to the front portion of the base frame 1, as shown in Figures 1 to 22. In this state, the vehicle is used as a trailer, and the space inside the vehicle can be used for children to sit or for items to be placed.

[0072] When the vehicle is in the second usage state, the other end of the frame assembly 2 is disconnected from the front of the base frame 1, and the frame assembly 2 as a whole rotates relative to the base frame 1 to be located behind the base frame 1. At this time, the rear frame of the frame assembly 2 rotates to connect with the plane of the base frame 1, serving as an outward extension of the base frame 1, as shown in Figures 23 and 24. In this case, the vehicle can be used as a bed or tent, and the base frame 1 and the vehicle's storage space together form a space for lying down or sitting.

[0073] When the vehicle is in the first use state, a seat assembly can be provided in the accommodation space of the vehicle for the child to sit on. At least one seat assembly can be provided.

[0074] Generally, there are one or two seat assemblies. When there is one seat assembly, the vehicle is a single-person trailer, as shown in Figures 13 and 14. When there are two seat assemblies, the vehicle is a double-person trailer, as shown in Figures 1 to 12, 15, and 22.

[0075] The seat assembly may include a first seat assembly 31. When the space within the frame assembly 2 is limited and multiple seat assemblies cannot be installed, the first seat assembly 31 may be fixed to the frame assembly 2, thereby saving a certain amount of space. When the frame assembly 2 rotates relative to the base frame 1 to convert the vehicle between the first and second usage states, the first seat assembly 31 rotates synchronously with the frame assembly 2.

[0076] As shown in Figures 1 to 4, the first seat assembly 31 includes a first backrest 311 and a first seat 312. The first backrest 311 is fixedly arranged between the upright assemblies on both sides, and the first seat 312 is arranged on the first backrest 311.

[0077] When the carrier is in the first usage state, the first backrest 311 extends vertically, and the first seat 312 is mounted on the base frame 1. The first seat 312 supports the child's buttocks, and the first backrest 311 supports the child's back, as shown in Figures 1 to 4. When the carrier is in the second usage state, the first backrest 311 extends forward and backward and sequentially connects with the base frame 1, and the first seat 312 remains mounted on the base frame 1. In this case, the first backrest 311 and the base frame 1 are jointly used for lying down, as shown in Figures 23 and 24.

[0078] In this embodiment, the first seat 312 is integrally arranged with the first backrest 311, and both the first backrest 311 and the first seat 312 are made of flexible material, so that when the vehicle is switched between the first usage state and the second usage state, the angle between the first backrest 311 and the first seat 312 can change.

[0079] The seat assembly may further include a second seat assembly 32, comprising a second seat 321 and a second backrest 322. Preferably, the second seat 321 and the second backrest 322 are pivotally connected, allowing the second backrest 322 to pivot relative to the second seat 321 and move closer to the base frame 1. The second seat assembly 32 is detachably mounted on the base frame 1, allowing it to be removed from the base frame 1 when the vehicle is switched to the second usage configuration.

[0080] In one embodiment, the second seat assembly 32 is detachably connected only to the base frame 1. Specifically, plugs are provided on the left and right sides of the second seat 321, and sockets are provided at corresponding locations on the base frame 1. The detachable connection between the plugs and sockets on the corresponding sides enables the detachable connection of the second seat assembly 32 to the base frame 1, as shown in Figures 3, 4, 11, and 12.

[0081] The second seat assembly 32 can be mounted on the base frame 1 in a forward direction, in which case the child faces forward when sitting in the second seat assembly 32, as shown in Figures 3, 4, 11, and 12. The second seat assembly 32 can also be mounted on the base frame 1 in a reverse direction, in which case the child faces backward when sitting in the second seat assembly 32.

[0082] By detachably connecting the second seat assembly 32 to the base frame 1 , the second seat assembly 32 can be installed on the base frame 1 in a reverse direction.

[0083] In another embodiment, the second seat assembly 32 is rotatably and detachably connected to the base frame 1, as shown in Figures 1, 2, 5, 6, and 13 to 18. Thus, when the second seat assembly 32 is connected to the base frame 1, the second seat assembly 32 can be rotated relative to the base frame 1 to change direction.

[0084] When multiple second seat assemblies 32 are provided, the connection method of each second seat assemblies 32 to the base frame 1 can be selected according to the storage space within the frame assembly 2. For example, some second seat assemblies 32 can be rotatably and detachably mounted on the base frame 1, while some second seat assemblies 32 can be detachably mounted only on the base frame 1, as shown in Figures 7 to 10.

[0085] When two seat assemblies are installed in the frame assembly 2, the first seat assembly 31 is always in the forward position. The second seat assembly 32 can be in either the forward or reverse position. Specifically, both seat assemblies can be in the forward position, as shown in FIG15 ; or both can be in the reverse position, as shown in FIG18 ; or one can be in the forward position and the other in the reverse position, as shown in FIG16 and FIG17 .

[0086] The carrier may further include a cloth cover disposed on the frame assembly 2. When the carrier is in the first usage state, the cloth covers are disposed on the top, rear, and left and right sides of the frame assembly 2, thereby leaving the front and bottom of the accommodating space of the frame assembly 2 open. Thus, when the carrier is switched from the first usage state to the second usage state, the bottom of the accommodating space of the frame assembly 2 rotates forward, thereby facilitating the child's entry and exit through the bottom opening.

[0087] The vehicle further includes a front fence bar assembly 4, which is rotatably mounted on the frame assembly 2. In this embodiment, the front fence bar assembly 4 is rotatably mounted in front of the front support assembly 22. When the vehicle is in a first state of use, the front fence bar assembly 4 is rotatable relative to the front support assembly 22 to a closed position close to the front support assembly 22, thereby enabling the front fence bar assembly 4 to block the front portion of the vehicle's accommodating space, thereby closing the front portion of the vehicle's accommodating space, as shown in Figures 1 to 18. In the first state of use, the front fence bar assembly 4 is also rotatable relative to the front support assembly 22 and away from the front support assembly 22, thereby assuming an open position, thereby opening the front portion of the vehicle's accommodating space and facilitating children's entry and exit, as shown in Figures 19 and 20.

[0088] The front wall bar assembly 4 can also be slidably arranged relative to the frame assembly 2 , that is, the front wall bar assembly 4 can also be slidably arranged on the front bracket assembly 22 along the length extension direction of the front bracket assembly 22 .

[0089] When the vehicle is in the first usage state, the front wall bar assembly 4 cannot slide relative to the front bracket assembly 22, and the front portion of the front wall bar assembly 4 does not extend in front of the front bracket assembly 22, as shown in Figures 1 to 22.

[0090] When the vehicle is in the second usage state, the front wall bar assembly 4 slides forward relative to the front bracket assembly 22 and extends to the front of the front bracket assembly 22, and is blocked above the chassis 1, as shown in Figures 23 and 24.

[0091] Of course, the front wall bar assembly 4 can also be slidably arranged on the front bracket assembly 22 only along the longitudinal extension direction of the front bracket assembly 22. In this way, when the vehicle is in the first usage state, the front wall bar assembly 4 can be slid relative to the front bracket assembly 22 to the front of the front bracket assembly 22, so that the front wall bar assembly 4 can block the front of the vehicle's accommodating space, making the vehicle's accommodating space closed. The front wall bar assembly 4 can also be slid backward relative to the front bracket assembly 22 to the rear of the front bracket assembly 22, so that the front of the vehicle's accommodating space is open. When the vehicle is in the second usage state, the front wall bar assembly 4 can similarly be slid forward relative to the front bracket assembly 22 to extend to the front of the front bracket assembly 22 and block the top of the chassis 1.

[0092] The vehicle also includes a support structure 5, which is positioned near the top of the frame assembly 2. When the vehicle is in a first use configuration, at least a portion of the support structure 5 extends to the rear of the frame assembly 2 to form a handle for moving the vehicle, as shown in Figures 1 to 22. When the vehicle is in a second use configuration, the support structure 5 is supported between the ground and the frame assembly 2, providing greater stability for the vehicle, as shown in Figures 23 and 24.

[0093] The support structure 5 is preferably rotatably mounted to the frame assembly 2. This allows the rear frame to be tilted relative to the chassis 1 when the vehicle is in the second use state, and the handle position to be adjusted for easier pushing in the first use state. Furthermore, when the vehicle is folded, the support structure 5 can be rotated closer to the frame assembly 2 to reduce the dimensions of the folded vehicle.

[0094] In this embodiment, one end of the support structure 5 is rotatably connected to the other end of the front bracket assembly 22 .

[0095] As shown in Figures 21 and 22, the vehicle also includes a tow bar 6, which allows the vehicle to be connected to a bicycle or other vehicle, so that the vehicle can be pulled along with the bicycle. Preferably, the tow bar 6 is detachably mounted on the front portion of the chassis 1. When the vehicle needs to be towed by another vehicle, the tow bar 6 is connected to the chassis 1. At this point, the front wheel assembly 7 can be reversely mounted on the chassis 1, allowing the front wheel assembly 7 to lift off the ground during towing. When the vehicle no longer needs to be towed by another vehicle, the tow bar 6 can be removed from the chassis 1.

[0096] The vehicle has an unfolded state and a folded state. When the vehicle is in the unfolded state, the vehicle can be in a first use state or a second use state, and can be switched arbitrarily between the first use state and the second use state.

[0097] When the vehicle is switched from the first to the second configuration, the connection between the other end of the lower enclosure bar assembly 21 and the front portion of the chassis 1 is removed, and the enclosure frame assembly 2 is rotated backward relative to the chassis 1 until the bottom of the support structure 5 contacts the ground. At this point, the front wheel assembly 7, the rear wheel assembly 8, and the support structure 5 are supported on the ground, as shown in Figures 25 and 26. The second seat assembly 32, which is mounted on the chassis 1, is removed from the chassis 1, as shown in Figures 27 and 28. Finally, the front enclosure bar assembly 4 is slid forward relative to the front support assembly 22 until it extends substantially forward of the front support assembly 22 and blocks the upper portion of the chassis 1, as shown in Figures 23 and 24. The vehicle is now in the second configuration.

[0098] When the vehicle is switched from the second use state to the first use state, the above steps can be reversed.

[0099] When the vehicle is folded, it is first switched to the first use state, with the support structure 5 rotated forward to be close to the front bracket assembly 22; the second backrest 322 of the second seat assembly 32 rotated to be close to the base frame 1; the front bracket assembly 22 is rotated downward relative to the lower enclosure assembly 21, so that the upper upright assembly 23 and the lower upright assembly 24 rotate relative to each other, and the lower upright assembly 24 is rotated forward relative to the lower enclosure assembly 21 to be close to the lower enclosure assembly 21. The folding process is shown in Figures 29 and 30. The process continues until the front bracket assembly 22, the upper upright assembly 23, and the lower upright assembly 24 are all close to the lower enclosure assembly 21, and the vehicle is finally folded as shown in Figures 31 and 32. After the vehicle is folded, its height is greatly reduced, making it easier to store when not in use. Example 2
