DETAILED DESCRIPTION

The disclosure is illustrated and described herein with reference to specific embodiments, though, the disclosure should not be limited to the details shown. Rather, various modifications can be made to these details within the scope of the equivalents of the claims and without departing from the disclosure.

The descriptions of “front,” “rear,” “up,” “down” and other directions mentioned in this specification are only for the convenience of understanding, and the disclosure is not limited to these directions, but can be adjusted according to actual conditions.

At first, refer to FIGS. 1A-2B. FIG. 1A is a perspective view of a carriage frame according to the application; and FIGS. 1B and 1C are partial enlarged views of FIG. 1A, showing specific structures of the folding hook structures 100 on left and right sides, respectively. As shown, in this embodiment, the baby carriage has two carriage frames symmetrically on left and right sides, and each carriage frame extends from a wheel below to a handrail above. The carriage frame has a long and straight tubular structure and may be divided into an upper carriage frame and a lower carriage frame. A folding hook structure 100 is disposed between the upper carriage frame and the lower carriage frame. The upper carriage frame is joined to the folding hook structure 100 by an upper joint 300, and the lower carriage frame is joined to the folding hook structure 100 by a lower joint 200. The upper joint 300 and the lower joint 200 can rotate in respect to each other through the folding hook structure 100, so as to allow the upper carriage frame and the lower carriage frame to be extended and collapsed (FIGS. 6A and 6B show the upper carriage frame and the lower carriage frame in a collapsible state).

The folding hook structure 100 according to the application, on the one hand, may serve as a pivot joint between the upper joint 300 and the lower joint 200, and on the other hand, may provide a locking function to lock and release the rotation between the upper joint 300 and the lower joint 200, which will be described in detail below.

FIG. 2A is a perspective view of the carriage frame according to the application from another angle; and FIGS. 2B and 2C are partially enlarged views of FIG. 2A, showing specific structures of the folding hook structures 100 on left and right sides, respectively.

Although a baby carriage having carriage frames, joints, and folding hook structures 100 symmetrically on left and right sides are shown, it should be understood, the according to the baby carriage according to the application may have a carriage frame of other forms, such as an asymmetric frame. Moreover, the folding hook structure 100 according to the application can be used separately for a single carriage frame, or for any other type of device to provide the function of locking and releasing the relative rotation between the two components.

Now refer to FIGS. 3A-3B. FIG. 3A is a perspective view of the carriage frame according to the application, in which an inner shell 110b, a rotating disk 160, a sliding member 140, and a folding hook 150 on left side of the folding hook structure 100 are removed to show specific structures of an outer shell 110a and a trigger member 130; and FIG. 3B is a partially enlarged view of FIG. 3A.

As shown, a shell 110 in this embodiment is composed of an outer shell 110a and an inner shell 110b. The outer shell 110a is located on an outer side of the baby carriage, and has a bottom wall and a side wall surrounding the outer circumference of the bottom wall. The inner shell 110b is located on an inner side of the baby carriage, and is embedded in the side wall of the outer shell 110a. In this way, the outer shell 110a and the inner shell 110b together form the shell 110 having a closed structure. Other components of the folding hook structure 100 are at least partially accommodated in the shell 110, so as to form a clear appearance of the entire folding hook structure 100. The lower joint 200 is fixedly connected to the outer shell 110a, and the upper joint 300 is connected to a rotating disk 160 inside the shell 110 (will be described in detail below) bypassing through a slot on the side wall.

In other embodiments, positions of the inner shell 110b and the outer shell 110a may be exchanged. For example, the inner shell 110b may be located on the outer side of the baby carriage, and the outer shell 110a may be located on the inner side of the baby carriage. The lower joint 200 may also be connected to the inner shell 110b, and the upper joint 300 is connected to the rotating disk 160 inside shell 110.

In this embodiment, the bottom wall of the outer shell 110a is formed in a heart shape. Specifically, one side of the bottom wall of the outer shell 110a has a circular portion, so as to form a space for accommodating the rotating disk 160. The other side of the bottom wall opposite to the circular portion has a raised portion for accommodating components such as a trigger member 130, a sliding member 140 and the like. In other embodiments, the bottom wall can also be formed in other shapes as long as it can accommodate the above-mentioned components.

An outer rotation shaft hole 111a is formed in the circular portion of the bottom wall. A rotation shaft (not shown) passes through the outer rotation shaft hole 111a, the rotating disk 160, and an inner rotation shaft hole 111b formed in the inner shell 110b, such that the rotating disk 160 is rotatably disposed inside the shell 110. A folding hook accommodation space 112a is also formed in the circular portion of the bottom wall, so as to accommodate the folding hook 150. In an embodiment, the folding hook accommodation space 112a is formed as a sliding chute or a sliding rail extending along a radial direction of the rotating disk 160, such that the folding hook 150 is slidable along the radial direction.

FIG. 3B also clearly shows the sliding member 140 and the trigger member 130. The sliding member 140 is disposed in the raised portion of the bottom wall, and is arranged to be slidable along the radial direction of the rotating disk 160. That is, the sliding member 140 is on the outer side of the rotating disk 160, and can move along the radial direction of the rotating disk 160 between an extended position close to the rotating disk 160 and a retracted position away from the rotating disk 160. A function of the sliding member 140 is to be inserted into a notch 165 of the rotating disk 160, so as to lock a mutual rotation between the rotating disk 160 and the shell 110 (FIG. 5B). In this embodiment, the sliding member 140 includes a strip portion and a sliding member operating surface 143 (an inclined surface). Among them, the strip portion may slide along the radial direction of the rotating disk 160 and can be inserted into the notch 165 of the rotating disk 160; the sliding member operating surface 143 extends from a vicinity of the bottom wall of the outer shell 110a toward the inner shell 110b, and forms an inclination angle in respect to a direction perpendicular to the bottom wall (i.e., a direction parallel to the rotation axis of the rotating disk 160). The sliding member operating surface 143 is closer to the rotating disk 160 in the vicinity of the bottom wall of the outer shell 110a, and farther away from the rotating disk 160 in the vicinity of the inner shell 110b.

The trigger member 130 passes through the shell 110 in a direction parallel to the rotation axis of the rotating disk 160, and includes an operating section 131 exposed outside the shell 110 and a trigger section 132 abutting against the sliding member 140 inside the shell 110. The trigger member 130 may be operated to move in a direction perpendicular to the rotating disk 160, so as to bring the sliding member 140 to move from the extended position to the retracted position. Specifically, the trigger member 130 includes the operating section 131 and the trigger section 132. Among them, the operating section 131 extends through the inner shell 110b to the outer side of the shell 110, so as to facilitate the user to press the trigger member 130; the trigger section 132 is located inside the shell 110 and has a trigger member operating surface 133 opposite to the sliding member operating surface 143 of the sliding member 140. The trigger member operating surface 133 and the sliding member operating surface 143 have substantially a same inclination angle. In this way, when the user presses the trigger member 130, the trigger member 130 slides toward the inside of the shell 110 (specifically, toward the outer shell 110a). At this time, the trigger member operating surface 133 contacts and pushes the sliding member operating surface 143 of the sliding member 140, such that the sliding member 140 slides in a direction away the rotating disk 160.

Now refer to FIGS. 4A-4C. FIG. 4A is a partially enlarged perspective view of the carriage frame according to the application, in which an outer shell 110a and a rotating disk 160 of the folding hook structure 100 on one side is removed to show the inner shell 110b, the trigger member 130, the sliding member 140, and the folding hook 150; FIGS. 4B and 4C are further enlarged views showing the sliding member 140 and the folding hook 150 in FIG. 4A. As shown, an inner rotation shaft hole 111b, a folding hook sliding rail 112b, and a sliding member sliding rail 113b are disposed in the inner shell 110b, and these structures may be respectively corresponding to the corresponding ones on the outer shell 110a to form a complete accommodating space.

It can be clearly seen from FIGS. 4A-4C, the folding hook 150 is disposed in the shell 110 in a manner of being slidable along the radial direction. More specifically, the folding hook 150 includes a slider portion 151 and a convex portion 152 on the slider portion 151. Among them, the slider portion 151 is received in the folding hook accommodation space 112a and can slide along the folding hook accommodation space 112a, and the convex portion 152 protrudes into a folding hook groove 161 of the rotating disk 160 (FIG. 5B). A folding hook elastic member 153 may be disposed between the folding hook 150 and the shell 110. The folding hook elastic member 153 has one end abutting against the shell 110, and the other end biasing the folding hook 150 to the locked position.

FIGS. 4A-4C also show the sliding member 140 from the other side. In an embodiment, a sliding member elastomer 145 may be disposed at an end of the sliding member 140 facing the side wall. The sliding member elastomer 145 has one end abutting against the side wall (the side wall is not shown in FIGS. 4A-4C), and the other end abutting against the sliding member 140 to bias the sliding member 140 to move toward the rotating disk 160. In this way, when the user does not press the trigger member 130, the sliding member 140 will tend to be inserted into the rotating disk 160, and when the user presses the trigger member 130, through the abutting relationship between the trigger member operating surface 133 and the sliding member operating surface 143, the trigger member 130 will resist biasing of the sliding member elastomer 145 and push the sliding member 140 to a direction away from the rotating disk 160.

FIGS. 4A-4C do not shown the upper joint 300 and the lower joint 200, so the entire folding hook structure 100 is shown as not connected to the upper carriage frame and the lower carriage frame. In use, the upper carriage frame and the lower carriage frame are respectively connected to the rotating disk 160 and the outer shell 110a through the upper joint 300 and the lower joint 200. In other embodiments, the upper carriage frame and the lower carriage frame may also be directly connected to the rotating disk 160 and the outer shell 110a. In other applications, the folding hook structure 100 may also be connected to different types of mutually rotating components, so as to provide a rotating pivot and be able to lock and release the mutual rotations between these components.

Now refer to FIGS. 5A-5B. FIG. 5A is a side view of the carriage frame according to the application, in which internal details of the folding hook structure 100 is shown in the form of a sectional view of the folding hook structure 100 on one side, and the folding hook 150 is in a released position; and FIG. 5B is a partially enlarged view of FIG. 5A. As shown, the rotating disk 160 is located in the shell 110 and can rotate around the rotation axis. A folding hook groove 161 is disposed on a disk surface of the rotating disk 160, the folding hook groove 161 includes a circumferential section 162 and a radial section 163, moreover, the circumferential section 162 extends in a circumferential direction of the rotating disk 160 with the rotation center as the center, and the radial section 163 extends in the radial direction of the rotating disk 160 from the circumferential section 162.

As shown in FIG. 5B, when the folding hook 150 is in its released position, the folding hook 150 is in the circumferential section 162 of the folding hook groove 161. In this way, the folding hook 150 would not obstruct the mutual rotation between the rotating disk 160 and shell 110. When the folding hook 150 is in its locked position (FIG. 6B), the folding hook 150 is in the radial section 163 of the folding hook groove 161. In this way, the folding hook 150 will prevent mutual rotation between the rotating disk 160 and the shell 110.

In an embodiment, the folding hook groove 161 may be a penetrating groove penetrating the rotating disk 160. In other embodiments, the folding hook groove 161 may not penetrate the rotating disk 160, rather, the folding hook groove 161 may be a concave groove depressed from the disk surface. In an embodiment, the radial section 163 of the folding hook groove 161 is located at an end of the circumferential section 162 and extends in a direction away from the rotation axis. In other embodiments, the radial section 163 may also be located in a middle of the circumferential section 162, and the radial section 163 may also extend in a direction close to the rotation axis.

In an embodiment, a side wall of the radial section 163 of the folding hook groove 161 facing the circumferential section 162 is inclined to form an oblique groove 164, such that the radial section 163 has a larger width where near the circumferential section 162 and a smaller width where away from the circumferential section 162. In this way, when the folding hook 150 is in the locked position (i.e., in the radial section 163 of the folding hook groove 161), as long as the user forcibly rotates the rotating disk 160 to an extending direction, the folding hook 150 may slide to its released position (i.e., in the circumferential section 162 of the folding hook groove 161) along the oblique groove 164.

It is also easy to understand from FIG. 5B, a notch 165 is formed on an outer circumference of the rotating disk 160. In the release position of the folding hook structure 100, the notch 165 can be aligned or not aligned with the sliding member 140 as the rotating disk 160 rotates. When the notch 165 is not aligned with the sliding member 140, the sliding member 140 abuts against the outer circumference of the rotating disk 160 and cannot move to the extended position. When the notch 165 is aligned with the sliding member 140, the sliding member 140 can move to the extended position and engage into the notch 165, thereby locking a rotation angle of the rotating disk 160 in respect to the shell 110.

In the shown embodiments, the circumferential section 162 of the folding hook groove 161 extends in an arc range of 160°-200°, and the notch 165 is located at a position opposite to the circumferential section 162 of the folding hook groove 161. In other embodiments, the circumferential section 162 of the folding hook groove 161 may have a different extension range, for example, a larger or smaller extension range, and the position of the notch 165 may be changed. In this way, the relative positional relationship between the upper joint 300 and the lower joint 200 in the collapsed state and the extended state can be changed.

Now refer to FIGS. 6A-6B. FIG. 6A is a side view of the carriage frame according to the application, in which internal details of the folding hook structure is shown in the form of a sectional view of the folding hook structure 100 on one side, and the folding hook 150 is in a locked position; and FIG. 6B is a partially enlarged view of FIG. 6A. As shown, a recess 166 is further disposed on the outer circumference of the rotating disk 160, and the recess 166 is approximately located at a position opposite to a middle position of the circumferential section 162 of the folding hook groove 161. In the locked position, the recess 166 is aligned with the sliding member 140 for the sliding member 140 to abut against thereon. In an embodiment, a depth of the recess 166 is designed such that when an external force acts to rotate the rotating disk 160 and the shell 110 in respect to each other, the sliding member 140 can slide out of the recess 166. For example, both sides of the recess 166 connected to the outer circumference of the rotating disk 160 may be designed as inclined edges, so as to facilitate the sliding member 140 to slide out of the recess 166. In this way, the sliding member 140 can help maintain the upper joint 300 and the lower joint 200 in the collapsed state. Moreover, when the user needs to expand the upper joint 300 and the lower joint 200, he/she can feel the carriage frame is separated by the resistance change brought by the sliding member 140.

In summary, the folding hook structure 100 according to the application actually provides two locking structures. According to the first locking structure, through the cooperation of the folding hook 150 with the folding hook groove 161 in the rotating disk 160, the folding hook structure 100 can be locked in a rotating position, e.g., a collapsed position where the upper joint 300 and the lower joint 200 are close to each other. According to the second locking structure, through the cooperation of the sliding member 140 with the notch 165 on the outer circumference of the rotating disk 160, the folding hook structure 100 can be locked in the other rotating position, e.g., an extended position where the upper joint 300 and the lower joint 200 are extended in respect to each other. Moreover, the folding hook structure 100 of the application also provides a convenient, safe and easily operational unlocking function for both of the above locked positions.

Although the present application has been described with reference to the exemplary embodiments, the terms used are illustrative and exemplary rather than restrictive. Since this application can be implemented in various forms without departing from the spirit and essence of the application, it should be understood, the above-mentioned embodiments are not limited to any of the foregoing details, but should be interpreted in the broadest sense within the scope defined by the claims. Therefore, all changes falling within the scope of the claims or their equivalents shall be covered by the claims.

Those skilled in the art will readily observe that numerous modifications and alterations of the device and method may be made while retaining the teachings of the invention. Accordingly, the above disclosure should be construed as limited only by the metes and bounds of the appended claims.
