[0001] The present application relates to a foldable baby carriage basket. BACKGROUND

[0002] Baby carriage basket has been an essential accessory for baby carriage, which can be used with baby carriage or car, and also can be used as a mobile baby bed. In addition to the basic requirements of stability and safety, more and more attention is paid to the comfort and convenience of the baby, and the basket itself can be quickly folded or unfolded while being fastened to the carriage frame. Most baskets need to be unlocked and folded with both hands, and the connection mechanism is complex and inconvenient to operate.

[0003] SUMMARY

[0004] The purpose of the present application is to provide a foldable baby carriage basket that can be quickly folded or unfolded, firmly connected, simple in structure and convenient to operate.

[0005] The technical solution of the present application is: a foldable baby carriage basket, comprising:

[0006] a basket chassis;

[0007] an upper frame located above the basket chassis;

[0008] a side hinge plate pivotally connected between the upper frame and the basket chassis and foldable inward to make the upper frame and the basket chassis close;

[0009] a mounting seat pivotally connected to the two sides of the basket chassis and rotatable, which is used for connecting with the connecting element corresponding to the carriage frame;

[0010] The mounting seat has a limiting structure that can provide support to the basket chassis and can lock the unfolded side hinge plate. When the basket is in the unfolded state, the side hinge plate is always kept in the unfolded state and supported between the upper frame and the basket chassis, while supporting the basket chassis. When the basket is folded, the side hinge plate is separated from the limiting structure by relative rotation of the basket chassis and the mounting seat, and the unfolded locking is released, and then the basket is folded.

[0011] Further, the side hinge plate has an upper hinge and a lower hinge that can be opened and closed, the upper edge of the upper hinge is rotatably connected with the upper frame, and the lower edge of the lower hinge is rotatably connected with the basket chassis.

[0012] Further, the limiting structure of the mounting seat is a U-shaped limiting groove that can provide support to the side rod of the basket chassis and can be inserted and limited by the lower hinge of the unfolded side hinge plate.

[0013] Further, the basket of the stroller further comprises a locking mechanism arranged on both sides of the basket chassis and locking the mounting seat in the unfolded state of the basket, and an unlocking member arranged at one end of the basket chassis and capable of simultaneously releasing the locking of the locking mechanism on both sides.

[0014] Further, the basket chassis comprises a lower frame and a bottom plate arranged on the lower frame; the locking mechanism is arranged on both sides of the lower frame, and the unlocking member is arranged at one end of the lower frame.

[0015] Further, the locking mechanism comprises a locking tongue arranged on the lower frame and capable of extending and retracting relative to the lower frame, and a reset member arranged between the locking tongue and the lower frame; the mounting seat has a locking groove corresponding to the locking tongue, and the lower hinge of the side hinge hinge plate has an opening groove for the locking tongue to pass through; when the basket is in the unfolded state, the locking tongue passes through the opening groove to lock the locking groove.

[0016] Further, a traction cable is arranged between the unlocking member and the locking tongue, and the unlocking member can drive the locking tongue to retract into the lower frame through the traction cable to release the locking of the mounting seat.

[0017] Further, the unlocking member is a rotating handle or a pull handle.

[0018] Further, the lower hinge of the side hinge hinge plate is rotationally connected with the side rod of the lower frame of the basket chassis, and the bottom plate of the basket chassis has a clearance groove at a position close to the side hinge hinge plate on both sides, which can allow the side hinge hinge plate to be folded inward.

[0019] Further, the basket further comprises a handle pivotally connected to the upper frame.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the present application has the following advantages:

[0021] 1. The present application can be used on the stroller or separated from the stroller and used alone. The side hinge hinge plate arranged between the upper frame and the basket chassis can be folded inward to make the upper frame and the basket chassis close to each other. In the unfolded state of the basket, the side hinge hinge plate is locked and limited by the limiting structure, so that the side hinge hinge plate cannot be folded inward. When the basket needs to be folded, the above-mentioned limiting locking can be released by the relative rotation between the basket chassis and the mounting seat. The structure is simple, the operation is convenient, and the basket can be quickly folded or unfolded.

[0022] 2. The mounting seat and the basket chassis are designed to be rotationally locked. When the basket is in the unfolded state, the locking mechanism locks the mounting seat, so that the mounting seat and the basket chassis cannot be rotationally relative to each other, that is, the limiting locking of the mounting seat to the side hinge hinge plate cannot be released by the relative rotation between the mounting seat and the basket chassis. This design greatly improves the safety during use and avoids accidental unlocking due to misoperation. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0049] The mounting seat 4 has a limiting structure that can provide support to the basket chassis 1 and can lock the unfolded side hinge plate 3, which can keep the side hinge plate 3 in an unfolded state and support the basket chassis 1 when the basket is in an unfolded state. When folding the basket, the side hinge plate 3 is released from the above-mentioned limiting structure by relative rotation of the basket chassis 1 and the mounting seat 4, and the unfolded locking of the side hinge plate 3 is released, thereby realizing the folding of the basket.

[0050] In this embodiment, the side hinge plate 3 has an upper hinge 301 and a lower hinge 302 that can be opened and closed, the upper edge of the upper hinge 301 is sleeved on the side rod of the upper frame 2 and is pivotally connected thereto, and the lower edge of the lower hinge 302 is sleeved on the side rod of the lower frame 101 and is pivotally connected thereto. Among them, the upper hinge 301 and the lower hinge 302 of the side hinge plate 3 can only be folded inward and cannot be folded outward, because this structure is a conventional structure in hinge, which will not be described and limited here.

[0051] In this embodiment, the limiting structure of the mounting seat 4 is a U-shaped limiting groove 401 that can provide support to the side rod of the basket chassis 1 and can be inserted and limited by the lower hinge 302 of the unfolded side hinge plate 3.

[0052] In the embodiment, the basket bottom frame 1 comprises a lower surrounding frame 101 and a bottom plate 102 arranged on the lower surrounding frame 101; the lower hinge 302 of the side hinge plate 3 is rotationally connected with the side rod of the lower surrounding frame 101 of the basket bottom frame 1; and the bottom plate 102 of the basket bottom frame 1 is provided with a clearance groove 103 on both sides close to the side hinge plate 3, which can allow the side hinge plate 3 to be folded inward.

[0053] In the embodiment, the basket further comprises a locking mechanism 5 arranged on both sides of the lower surrounding frame 101 of the basket bottom frame 1 and locked to the mounting seat in the unfolded state of the basket, and an unlocking member 6 arranged at one end of the lower surrounding frame 101 of the basket bottom frame 1 and capable of simultaneously unlocking the locking mechanism 5 on both sides. The design can simultaneously unlock the locking mechanism 5 on both sides through the operation of a single unlocking member 6, which is more convenient and fast.

[0054] The locking mechanism 5 comprises a lock tongue 501 arranged on the lower surrounding frame 101 and capable of being extended and retracted relative to the lower surrounding frame 101, and a reset member arranged between the lock tongue 501 and the lower surrounding frame 101; the mounting seat 4 is provided with a lock groove 402 corresponding to the lock tongue 501; the lower hinge 302 of the side hinge plate 3 is provided with an opening groove 303 for the lock tongue 501 to pass through; and the lock tongue 501 passes through the opening groove 303 to lock the lock groove 402 when the basket is in the unfolded state.

[0055] In the embodiment, a traction cable is arranged between the unlocking member 6 and the lock tongue 501, and the unlocking member 6 can drive the lock tongue 501 to retract into the lower surrounding frame 101 to unlock the mounting seat 4. Since the unlocking member 6 is a common structure in the prior art and has various types, no specific description and limitation is given herein. In the embodiment, the unlocking member 6 is preferably a rotating handle.

[0056] In the embodiment, the basket further comprises a handle 7 pivotally connected to the upper surrounding frame 2. Since the handle 7 is a common structure in the prior art, no specific description and limitation is given herein.

[0057] The working principle of the present application is as follows:

[0058] When the basket is in the unfolded state, the side hinge plate 3 is unfolded and supported between the upper surrounding frame 2 and the basket bottom frame 1, and the lower hinge 302 of the side hinge plate 3 is clamped in the U-shaped limiting groove 401 of the mounting seat 4 to achieve limiting locking, so that the side hinge plate 3 cannot be folded inward. The side rod of the lower surrounding frame 101 of the basket bottom frame 1 is arranged on the groove bottom of the U-shaped limiting groove 401, so that the basket bottom frame 1 is kept in the flat and used state. The lock tongue 501 passes through the opening groove 303 of the lower hinge 302 to lock the lock groove 402 of the mounting seat 4, so that the basket bottom frame 1 cannot rotate relative to the mounting seat 4, and the entire basket is in the unfolded and locked state.

[0059] When the basket needs to be folded, first operate the unlocking member 6 to release the locking of the mounting seat 4 by the locking mechanism 5, then rotate the basket chassis 1 to release the limiting of the U-shaped limiting groove 401 of the mounting seat 4 by the side hinge plate 3, and under the action of gravity, the side hinge plate 3 is folded inward to make the upper frame 2 and the basket chassis 1 close.

[0060] The basket can be locked on the stroller for use, and can be used separately after being separated from the stroller, and the side hinge plate 3 arranged between the upper frame 2 and the basket chassis 1 is folded inward to make the upper frame 2 and the basket chassis 1 close, and in the unfolded state of the basket, the side hinge plate 3 is limited and locked by the limiting structure, so that the side hinge plate 3 remains in the unfolded state and cannot be folded inward.

[0061] In the mounting seat 4 and the basket chassis 1, the rotating locking design is adopted, when the basket is in the unfolded state, the locking mechanism 5 locks the mounting seat 4, so that the mounting seat 4 and the basket chassis 1 cannot rotate relative to each other, that is, the mounting seat 4 cannot release the limiting and locking of the side hinge plate 3 by rotating relative to the basket chassis 1, which greatly improves the safety during use and avoids accidental unlocking due to misoperation.
