As shown in FIGS. 1 and 16, the present disclosure provides a crib comprising a body 100, a bed frame 200, a support base 300 and a locking mechanism 400. The crib is configured for a child to sleep or play, can function as a cradle which facilitates calming the child, has a simple structure and is easy to operate.
Specifically, as shown in FIG. 6, the body 100 has a box-like structure approximately having a shape of a rectangular. Of course, the shape of the body 100 is not limited thereto, and may be designed as an elliptical cylinder or other shape as required. The body 100 forms an accommodation space to accommodate a child and configured for the child to sleep, play and so on. In this embodiment, the body 100 has a frame structure having a shape of a rectangular which is composed of multiple support rods 110, that is, a rectangular frame is formed at a top portion of the frame structure. Two support rods 110 located on short sides of the rectangular frame serve as slide rods 110a. Of course, it is also possible that other support rods 110 forming the frame structure act as slide rods 110a, for example, two support rods 110 located on the long sides of the rectangular frame. In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 10, the slide rod 110a is a straight rod. Of course, in other embodiments, the slide rod 110a may also be an arc rod. For example, as shown in FIG. 11, the slide rod 110a may be an arc rod bent and depressed in a direction toward the ground. Of course, the slide rod 110a may be arc rod or the like bent and depressed in a direction away from the ground, which is not limited here. The frame structure may be encased by fabric (not shown) and support pads (not shown) may be provided at the bottom portion of the frame structure to form a protective barrier for the child.
Specifically, as shown in FIG. 1, the bed frame 200 is configured to support the body 100. In this embodiment, the bed frame 200 includes two support posts 210, which are respectively located on the two short sides of the rectangular frame and are configured to support the two slide rods 110a respectively. Of course, in other embodiments, the number and location of the support posts 210 may also be adjusted as needed. The support post 210 includes a pillar 211 and a support bracket 212 which are interconnected. The support bracket 212 is located at a bottom portion of the pillar 211, which substantially forms an inverted “T” shaped structure with the pillar 211. This setting improves the support stability of the support post 210. Of course, the setting of the support post 210 is not limited thereto.
Further, as shown in FIGS. 1 to 5, the height of both support posts 210 is adjustable. The adjustment manner of the height of the support post 210 is not limited, for example, the pillar 211 may include a first socket rod 2111, a second socket rod 2112, and a height adjustment handle 2113. The first socket rod 2111 is partially inserted into the second socket rod 2112, and the first socket rod 2111 is located below the second socket rod 2112. A plurality of adjustment holes 2114 are disposed on the first socket rod 2111 in a height direction, and the height adjustment handle 2113 is sleeved on the second socket rod 2112 and is slidable along the second socket rod 2112. An adjustment pin 2115 is provided on the second socket rod 2112. The adjustment pin 2115 is connected to the height adjustment handle 2113 via a connecting member 2116, and the adjustment pin 2115 can be inserted into or withdrawn from the adjustment hole 2114 by operating the height adjustment handle 2113. When the adjustment pin 2115 is withdrawn from the adjustment hole 2114, the first socket rod 2111 and second socket rod 2112 slide relative to each other to achieve height adjustment of support pillar 210. After adjustment in place, the height adjustment handle 2113 can be operated such that the adjustment pin 2115 is re-inserted into the adjustment hole 2114 under the action of the reset member 2117, thereby the first socket rod 2111 is locked relative to the second socket rod 2112. As required, the height of both support posts 210 can be adjusted simultaneously or the height of only one of the support posts 210 can be adjusted via the height adjustment handle 2113. A bottom portion of the body 100 is horizontal when the height of the two support posts 210 is adjusted simultaneously. When the height of only one of the support posts 210 is adjusted, the bottom portion of the basket 100 is in an inclined state, as shown in FIG. 24. In this way, a plurality of patterns of use can be provided for the child.
Specifically, as shown in FIG. 1, there are two support bases 300, which are fixed at top of the two support posts 210 respectively, that is, on the ends of the two pillars 211 away from the corresponding support brackets 212 respectively. The support base 300 includes a support body 310 and an insertion potion (not shown) which are interconnected. An end of the pillar 211 away from the corresponding support bracket 212 has an insertion groove (not shown) that is engaged with the insertion portion. The insertion portion is inserted into the insertion groove to realize the connection between the support base 300 and the support pillar 210, and the support body 310 is located on an end of the pillar 211 away from the corresponding support bracket 212. Of course, the number, setting position and setting manner of the support base 300 are not limited thereto and can be adjusted according to actual needs.
Further, as shown in FIG. 10 and FIG. 11, the support body 310 has a through passage 311, and the slide rod 110a extends through the through passage 311 and is slidable with respect to the support bracket 300 reciprocatingly.
In this way, the swing of the body 100 relative to the bed frame 200 can be realized by pushing and pulling the basket 100 back and forth, which plays a role in calming the child in the body 100, and is simple in structure and convenient in operation. When the slide rod 110a is a straight rod, as shown in FIG. 10, reciprocating swing of the body 100 in a horizontal direction can be realized. When the slide rod 110a is an arc rod, such as an arc rod depressing in a direction toward the ground, as shown in FIG. 11, it is also possible to realize reciprocating swing of the body 100 in both the horizontal direction and the vertical direction simultaneously.
Further, as shown in FIGS. 10 and 11, a roller 312 is provided in the support base 300 that protrudes into the through passage 311, and the roller 312 abuts on the slide rod 110a. In this way, the slide rod 110a can be made to slide more smoothly relative to the support bracket 300. In this embodiment, there are four rollers 312, of which two are arranged at intervals on an upper side of the slide rod 110a and the other two are arranged at intervals on a lower side of the slide rod 110a, such that a better smooth effect can be achieved. Of course, in other embodiments, the number and location of the rollers 312 may also be adjusted as needed.
Specifically, as shown in FIGS. 15 to 18, the locking mechanism 400 includes a first locking portion, a second locking portion, an elastic member 410, and an operating member. When the locking mechanism 400 is in a locked state, the basket 100 is relatively fixed to the support base 300, and when the locking mechanism 400 is in an unlocked state, the body 100 is slidable relative to the support base 300.
Alternatively, as shown in FIGS. 16 and 18, the first locking portion is a locking hole 420 provided on the slide rod 110a, and the second locking portion is a locking pin 430 provided on the support base 300 and insertable into the locking hole 420. The locking pin 430 may be operated to be engaged with or disengaged from the locking hole 420, such that the locking mechanism 400 is in the locked state or the unlocked state. In this embodiment, there is one locking hole 420 which is located approximately in a middle portion of the slide rod 110a. Of course, in other embodiments, there may also be a plurality of locking holes 420 disposed in a direction in which the slide rod 110a extends such that the basket 100 can be secured to the bed frame 200 in different positions. The locking pin 430 is provided with an abutting flange 431. Of course, in other embodiments, the first locking portion and the second locking portion may also be in other forms, for example, the first locking portion may be a locking groove, and the second locking portion may be a locking projection that is engaged with the locking groove, etc., which is not limited here.
Specifically, the operating member can be in various forms. For example, in one embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 1, and 12 to 14, the operating member may be a knob 440 mounted on the support base 300. The knob 440 has a substantially cylindrical structure and a plurality of rotation projections 441 are disposed on a side wall of the knob 440 to facilitate rotation by the caregiver. The knob 440 is provided with a first mounting groove 442 facing the support base 300, and a driving rib 443 is provided on a side wall of the first mounting groove 442. In this embodiment, there are two driving ribs 443, which are disposed opposite to each other. Of course, in other embodiments, the number and location of the driving ribs 443 may also be adjusted as needed.
As shown in FIG. 13, a first mounting protrusion 313 is provided on the support base 300. A first mounting hole 313a (see FIGS. 16 and 18) is provided on the middle portion of the first mounting protrusion 313 in communication with the locking hole 420. A locking pin 430 movably extends through the first mounting hole 313a, and a driving inclined surface 313b cooperating with the driving rib 443 is provided on a side wall of the first mounting protrusion 313. The driving inclined surface 313b has a first stop position 313c and a second stop position 313d at both ends. There are two driving inclined surfaces 313b corresponding to the two driving ribs 443. The knob 440 is rotatably disposed on the first mounting protrusion 313 such that the first mounting protrusion 313 is wholly or partially accommodated in the first mounting groove 442, and a bottom wall of the first mounting groove 442 is connected to an end of the locking pin 430 away from the slide rod 110a. Specifically, the locking pin 430 is fixed to the bottom wall of the first mounting groove 442 by rivets. In this way, when the knob 440 is rotated, the driving rib 443 is moved along the driving inclined surface 313b to move the locking pin 430 in a direction toward or away from the locking hole 420, and the locking pin 430 is disengaged from the locking hole 420 when the driving rib 443 is moved to the first stop position 313c. The locking pin 430 is capable of being inserted into the locking hole 420 when the driving rib 443 is moved to the second stop position 313d.
Further, as shown in FIGS. 16 and 18, the elastic member 410 is sleeved on the locking pin 430, and two ends of the elastic member 410 abut on the abutting flange 431 and a bottom wall of the first mounting groove 442, respectively. In this way, the elastic member 410 always moves the locking pin 430 in a direction toward the locking hole 420.
A specific operating principle of the locking mechanism 400 according to this embodiment is described as below.
To swing the body 100, rotate the knob 440 such that the driving rib 443 on the knob 440 is moved from the second stop position 313d to the first stop position 313c along the driving inclined surface 313b, and at the same time, the locking pin 430 originally inserted into the locking hole 420 is disengaged from the locking hole 420, as shown in FIG. 16 and FIG. 18. At this time, the locking mechanism 400 is unlocked, the slide rod 110a is slidable relative to the support base 300, that is, pushing the body 100 allows the body 100 to swing relative to the bed frame 200, as shown in FIGS. 7 to 9.
If it is necessary to stop the swing of the body 100 and fix it to the bed frame 200, rotate the knob 440 such that the driving rib 443 on the knob 440 is moved from the first stop position 313c to the second stop position 313d along the driving inclined surface 313b. Since the bottom wall of the first mounting groove 442 is gradually close to the locking hole 420, the locking pin 430 abuts on the slide rod 110a, and the elastic member 410 is compressed and deformed. At this time, push and pull the body 100 such that the slide rod 110a is moved to make the support base 300 approximately on the middle portion of the slide rod 110a and the locking hole 420 is aligned with the first mounting hole 313a. Then, the locking pin 430 can be automatically aligned and inserted into the locking hole 420 of the slide rod 110a under the elastic force of the elastic member 410, as shown in FIG. 18 and FIG. 16, to enable re-locking of the body 100 with the bed frame 200.
Also, for example, in another embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 19 to 23, the operating member may be a button 450, which has an elliptical cylindrical structure. The button 450 has a pressing surface 451 for applying force. The pressing surface 451 is a V-shaped surface. The pressing surface 451 has a first pressing end 451a and a second pressing end 451b bounded by a central recess of the V-shaped surface. The button 450 has a second mounting groove 452, and the locking pin 430 is partly disposed in the second mounting groove 452. A guide post 452a is disposed on the groove wall of the second mounting groove 452, and the locking pin 430 is provided with a guide slot 432 having a rectangular shape and disposed along an extension direction of the locking pin 430. The guide post 452a is inserted into the guide slot 432 such that the locking pin 430 can be moved relative to the button 450. Such setting enables connecting of the locking pin 430 to the button 450 and displacing of the locking pin 430 relative to the button 450 in a direction toward or away from the locking hole 420, as shown in FIGS. 20 and 21.
As shown in FIGS. 20 and 21, a mounting base 314 is disposed on the support base 300, the button 450 is movably disposed on the mounting base 314, and an end of the locking pin 430 away from the slide rod 110a is connected to the first pressing end 451a. When the first pressing end 451a is pressed, the first pressing end 451a is moved in a direction toward the locking hole 420 and the second pressing end 451b is moved in a direction away from the locking hole 420. When the second pressing end 451b is pressed, the second pressing end 451b is moved in a direction toward the locking hole 420, and the first pressing end 451a is moved in a direction away from the locking hole 420.
Further, as shown in FIGS. 19 to 23, the mounting base 314 is provided with a first engaging portion, and a side of the button 450 close to the second pressing end 451b is provided with a second engaging portion. In this embodiment, the first engaging portion is an engaging hole 314a, and the second engaging portion is an engaging finger 453 provided with an engaging hook 453a. When the second pressing end 451b is pressed, the engaging hook 453a is inserted into the engaging hole 314a. In this way, when the pressing force is removed, the button 450 is capable of keeping the second pressing end 451b close to the locking hole 420 and the first pressing end 451a away from the locking hole 420, as shown in FIG. 23, that is, as long as the second pressing end 451b is pressed once, the locking mechanism 400 is kept in the unlocked state. When the first pressing end 451a is pressed, since the engaging finger 453 is capable of being elastically deformed to a certain extent, the engaging hook 453a is disengaged from the engaging hole 314a, as shown in FIGS. 20 and 21, thereby not intervening the locking of the locking mechanism 400.
Further, as shown in FIGS. 19 to 23, a second mounting protrusion 314b is disposed on the mounting base 314. The second mounting protrusion 314b has a receiving groove 314c in communication with the through passage 311. A second mounting hole 314d in communication with the receiving groove 314c is disposed on the middle portion of the second mounting protrusion 314b. The locking pin 430 movably extends through the second mounting hole 314d. The clastic member 410 is sleeved on the locking pin 430 such that two ends of the elastic member 410 abut on the abutting flange 431 and the bottom wall of the receiving groove 314c respectively. In this way, the elastic member 410 always moves the locking pin 430 in a direction toward the locking hole 420.
A specific operating principle of the locking mechanism 400 according to this embodiment is described as below.
In order to allow the body 100 to swing, the second pressing end 451b of the button 450 is pressed to be moved in a direction toward the locking hole 420, and at the same time, the first pressing end 451a is moved in a direction away from the locking hole 420, driving the locking pin 430 originally inserted into the locking hole 420 to be disengaged from the locking hole 420. The guide post 452a is moved to an end of the guide groove 432 away from the locking hole 420, as shown in FIG. 23. After the locking mechanism 400 is unlocked, the slide rod 110a is slidable relative to the support base 300, that is, pushing the body 100 allows the body 100 to swing relative to the bed frame 200. At the same time, the locking mechanism 400 is remained in the unlock state since the movement of the second pressing end 451b in the direction toward the locking hole 420 causes the engaging hook 453a on the engaging finger 453 to be inserted into the engaging hole 314a during the above-mentioned unlocking process.
In order to stop the swing of the body 100 and fix the body 100 relative to the bed frame 200, press the first pressing end 451a of the button 450 and then the second pressing end 451b is moved in a direction away from the locking hole 420, such that the engaging hook 453a on the engaging finger 453 is disengaged from the engaging hole 314a. The first pressing end 451a is then moved in the direction toward the locking hole 420. At the same time, the locking pin 430 is pushed in a direction toward the locking hole 420 and abuts on the slide rod 110a, and the clastic member 410 is compressed and deformed as shown in FIG. 19. Next, push and pull the body 100 such that the slide rod 110a is moved to make the support base 300 approximately in the middle portion of the slide rod 110a and the locking hole 420 is aligned with the second mounting hole 314d. At this time, the locking pin 430 can be automatically aligned and inserted into the locking hole 420 of the slide rod 110a under the clastic force of the elastic member 410, as shown in FIG. 21, to enable re-locking of the body 100 with the bed frame 200.
For example, in another embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 25 and 29, the operating member may be a pressing member 460, which has a substantially cylindrical structure. One end of the pressing member 460 is provided with a pressing portion 461, and the other end of the pressing member 460 is provided with an abutting protrusion 462. The locking pin 430 is fixed to one side of the pressing member 460 and is located between the pressing portion 461 and the abutting protrusion 462. In this embodiment, the locking pin 430 and the pressing member 460 are approximately perpendicular to each other. The mounting base 300 is provided with an assembly groove 315 in communication with the through passage 311, and the pressing member 460 is movably disposed in the assembly groove 315. The pressing portion 461 at least partially protrudes from the mounting base 300 to allow the caregiver to apply the pressing force conveniently, and a pressing direction of the pressing portion 461 is perpendicular to the extension direction of the locking pin 430.
Specifically, in this embodiment, the setting of the locking hole 420 is slightly different from that of the aforementioned two embodiments. In the aforementioned two embodiments, the knob 440 or the button 450 is operated to move the locking pin 430 toward or away from the locking hole 420 in a horizontal direction in FIG. 16 or the up-and-down direction in FIG. 20, so as to achieve insertion locking or unlocking with the locking hole 420. Therefore, the locking hole 420 is provided at the left side as shown in FIG. 15 or FIG. 17. In this embodiment, the pressing member 460 is operated such that the locking pin 430 is moved in a vertical direction in FIG. 29 toward or away from the locking hole 420, so as to achieve the insertion locking or unlocking with the locking hole 420, such that the locking hole 420 is provided at an upper left side as shown in FIG. 29, such that when the pressing member 460 is pressed down, and the locking pin 430 is moved downward, the locking pin 430 is not blocked by the rod wall of the slide rod 110a, thus the locking pin 430 can be inserted into the locking hole 420 smoothly.
Further, as shown in FIGS. 29 and 31, a base 316 is provided in the support base 300 close to the bottom portion thereof, and two ends of the elastic member 410 abut on the base 316 and the abutting protrusion 462 respectively. In this way, the clastic member 410 constantly moves the abutting protrusion 462 upward, that is, constantly moves the locking pin 430 toward the unlocked position.
Further, as shown in FIGS. 22 to 35, the locking mechanism 400 further includes a holding assembly 470. When the pressing member 460 is in the locked position, the holding assembly 470 keeps the pressing member 460 in the locked position. Specifically, the hold assembly 470 includes a holding frame 471 and a holding member 472. The holding frame 471 is approximately a square frame (shown in FIGS. 29 and 31). The bottom portion of the holding frame 471 is rotated and attached to the base 316, and a top portion of the holding frame 471 (i.e., an end away from the base 316) is disconnected in the middle, forming two opposing snap portions 471a. The two snap portions 471a are snapped on both sides of the holding member 472. Of course, in other embodiments, there may be only one snap portion 471a to snap the holding member 472.
As shown in FIGS. 32 to 35, the holding member 472 is fixed to the pressing member 460. The holding member 472 and the pressing member 460 may be integrally formed or may be two separate components. The holding member 472 includes a holding body 472a and a limit block 472b fixed to the holding body 472a. The holding body 472a and the limit block 472b may be integrally formed or may be two separate components. A side of the limit block 472b close to the pressing portion 461 has a first limit projection 472c and a second limit projection 472d, and the first limit projection 472c and the second limit projection 472d enclose to form a limit slot 472c. A guide passage 473 in communication with the limit slot 472e is formed between the limit block 472b and the holding body 472a, and the snap portion 471a can be moved along the guide passage 473. When the pressing member 460 is moved from the unlocked position to the locked position, the snap portion 471a is moved along the guide passage 473 and into the limit slot 472e by passing the first limit projection 472c. When the pressing member 460 is moved from the locked position to the unlocked position, the snap portion 471a is moved along the guide passage 473 and is disengaged from the limit slot 472e by passing the second limit projection 472d. This allows the holding assembly 470 to hold the pressing member 460 in the locked position.
Specifically, as shown in FIGS. 32 to 35, the limit block 472b has an approximately inverted triangular block structure. The guide channel 473 is substantially divided into a first passage 473a, a second passage 473b, and a third passage 473c, which intercommunicates with each other and are arranged along three sides of a triangle. The limit slot 472e is located in the third passage 473c. The first passage 473a and the first limit projection 472c are located on the relative left side, and the second passage 473b and the second limit projection 472d are located on the relative right side. The holding body 472a is also provided with a receiving passage 474 located below the limit block 472b, the receiving passage 474 is arranged in a vertical direction, and the receiving passage 474 is in communication with the first passage 473a and the second passage 473b. A bottom corner 472f of the limit block 472b is biased toward the second passage 473b. The holding body 472a is provided with a limit projection 481 which is biased toward the first limit projection 472c. When the pressing member 460 is pressed and moved from the unlocked position to the locked position, due to the blocking of the bottom angle 472f of the limit block 472b, the snap portion 471a located in the receiving passage 474 is moved obliquely upward along the first passage 473a and enters the limit slot 472e by passing the first limit projection 472c, as shown in FIG. 35. At this time, the snap portion 471a is confined between the first limit projection 472c and the second limit projection 472d, such that after the pressing force applied to the pressing member 460 is withdrawn, the pressing member 460 is not moved upward under the action of the elastic member 410, that is, the pressing member 460 remains at the locked position. When the pressing member 460 is pressed again, due to the blocking of the limit projection 481, the snap portion 471a located in the limit slot 472e is disengaged from the limit slot 472e and is moved into the second passage 473b by passing the second limit projection 472d along the third passage 473c, and is moved back to the receiving passage 474 diagonally along the second passage 473b, as shown in FIG. 33, so as to allow the pressing member 460 to be moved from the locked position to the unlocked position under the clastic force of the elastic member 410. A specific operating principle of the locking mechanism 400 according to this embodiment is described as below.
In order to allow the body 100 to swing, press the pressing member 460 such that the snap portion 471a located in the limit slot 472e is disengaged from the limit slot 472e and is moved into the second passage 473b by passing the second limit projection 472d along the third passage 473c, and is moved back to the receiving passage 474 diagonally along the second passage 473b, as shown in FIG. 33, that is, if the holding action of the holding mechanism 400 is withdrawn, the pressing member 460 is capable of being moved from the locked position to the unlocked position under the elastic force of the elastic member 410, that is, the pressing member 460 is moved upward such that the locking pin 430 is disengaged from the locking hole 420, as shown in FIGS. 26 and 31.
In order to stop the swing of the body 100 and fix the body 100 relative to the bed frame 200, the pressing member 460 can be pressed again such that the pressing member 460 is moved from the unlocked position to the locked position, that is, the pressing member 460 is moved downward such that the locking pin 430 is inserted into the locking hole 420, as shown in FIGS. 27 and 29. At the same time, the snap portion 471a located in the receiving passage 474 is moved obliquely upwards along the first passage 473a and is moved into the limit slot 472e by passing the first limit protrusion 472c, such that the pressing member 460 remains at the locked position, as shown in FIG. 35.
It should be noted that in the three embodiments described above, the two slide rods 110a on the opposite sides of the body 100 and the support base 300 on the two support posts 210 can be locked or unlocked simultaneously by the corresponding locking mechanism 400, or can be locked or unlocked respectively by the corresponding locking mechanism 400. For example, the slide rod 110a on one side is slidable relative to the support base 300, and the slide rod 110a on the other side is fixed relative to the support base 300, that is, the swing of one side can be achieved.
The aforementioned crib has at least the following technical effects.
In the crib, the body 100 has an accommodation space for a child to sleep or play therein, which is supported by the bed frame 200, and which extends through the through passage 311 of the support base 300 disposed on the bed frame 200 via the slide rod 110a, so as to realize a slide connection between the slide rod 110a and the support base 300, that is, a slide connection between the body 100 and the bed frame 200. In this way, the swing of the body 100 relative to the bed frame 200 can be realized by pushing and pulling the body 100 back and forth, which acts as a comfort to the child in the body 100. The crib has a simple structure to realize the swing function of the body, and it is easy to operate.
The technical features of the aforementioned embodiments may be arbitrarily combined, and in order to make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the aforementioned embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, it should be considered as the scope of this specification.
