Referring to FIG. 1 to FIG. 3 and FIG. 5, a portable bathtub includes a bathtub main body 10 and supporting legs 20.
The bathtub main body 10 includes a framework 11 and an accommodating portion 12 formed by downwards extension of the framework 11, and the framework 11 is provided with plugging holes 111 and locking holes 112 communicated to the plugging holes 111.
Locking members 30 are arranged at connecting ends of the supporting legs 20; the locking members 30 move between locked positions and released positions; and the connecting ends of the supporting legs 20 are detachably plugged into the plugging holes 111. When the locking members 30 move to the locked positions, the locking members 30 are plugged into the locking holes 112.
Based on the above structural setting, in a used state, the connecting ends of the supporting legs 20 are plugged into the plugging holes 111, and the locking members 30 are moved to the locking positions. The locking members 30 are plugged into the locking holes 112, which can effectively fixedly connect the supporting legs 20 to the framework and improve the stability of a product. In a transported or stored state, the locking members 30 are moved to the released positions. At this time, the locking members 30 are removed from the locking holes 112, so that the user can separate the supporting legs 20 from the framework, and it is convenient for the user to transport or store the product, improving the portability of the product.
Referring to FIG. 8 to FIG. 10, in this embodiment, each locking member 30 includes a mounting shell 31, a locking block 32, and an elastic member 33. A movement space 311 is arranged in the mounting shell 31. A mounting slot 21 is formed in the connecting end of each supporting leg 20. The mounting shell 31 is plugged into the mounting slot 21. The locking block 32 is slidably arranged in the movement space 311. One end of the elastic member 33 resists against the locking block 32. The other end of the elastic member 33 resists against an inner wall of the mounting slot 21 or an inner wall of the movement space 311, so that the locking block 32 is plugged into the locking hole 112. Based on the above structural setting, the mounting shells 31 are plugged into the mounting slots 21, so that it can be convenient for the user to separately produce the complicated locking members 30. The mounting slots 21 are formed in the supporting legs 20, and the locking members 30 are subsequently plugged into the mounting slots 21, so that the production efficiency can be improved, and the yield of production can be increased. Due to the arrangement of the elastic members 33, two ends of the elastic members 33 respectively resist against the locking blocks 32 and the inner walls of the mounting slots 21 or the inner walls of the movement spaces 311. The locking blocks 32 press the elastic members 33, and the elastic members 33 deform. At this time, the locking members 30 are located at the released positions, so that it is convenient for the user to mount and remove the supporting legs 20. The elastic members 33 are reset, and the locking blocks 32 are actuated to move. At this time, the locking members 30 are located at the locked positions.
