Description
CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

This application is claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 202311568036.5, with a filing date of Nov. 22, 2023. The content of the aforementioned application, including any intervening amendments thereto, is incorporated herein by reference.


FIELD

The present application relates to the technical field of mannequins for clothing design, in particular to a separable and foldable mannequin for clothing design with easy packaging and transportation which can reduce a package volume under the condition that an overall size of the mannequin remains unchanged.


BACKGROUND

A mannequin for clothing design whether sold in the international market or in the Chinese market has a large volume and is designed integrally. The overall structure thereof cannot be disassembled or can only be disassembled into large pieces, resulting in the packaging volume of the mannequin being excessively large after packaging during the sales process, which is cumbersome and difficult to transport. Especially in international sales, logistics cost, packaging cost, and storage cost are all very high, directly weakening the competitiveness of a domestic factory.


The mannequin is generally half-length, sometimes may be full-length, and always has a large size. A half-length mannequin has no legs, but has a fixed fence iron frame (a cross section of the iron fame is similar to a waist-shaped hole) with a height of substantially 37 cm, a straight-rod pedal lifting rod, and a chassis. The fence iron frame, the lifting rod and the chassis are integrated, and the chassis is a cast-iron four-legged wheeled chassis. If the mannequin is full-length, the combination of an upper body and a lower body leads to a larger volume, and a higher transportation cost.


At present, separate packaging for this kind of product is used for transportation by the manufacturer in China and other countries. Generally, the mannequin product and the lifting chassis system on the mannequin are disassembled, packaged separately, and transported separately, resulting in a high market price and reducing user interest in using the product. Therefore, it is urgent to provide a new technical solution to solve the problems existing in the conventional technology.

The disassembly and assembly of the hinge-type foldable assembled fence according to the present application is convenient. When the fence is stored, the annular ring can be taken out from the hook 201 with a little force, and then the fastening screw for fixing each hinge-type foldable upright rod 200 is unscrewed by a screwdriver, and then each hinge-type foldable upright rod 200 can be folded. The assembly operation is reverse to the above disassembly operation, so the whole disassembly and assembly is simple, and the detachable design of the fence is realized with a concise structure, and the packaging volume and the transportation cost are reduced.


Third Embodiment

Another separable and foldable mannequin for clothing design with easy packaging and transportation is provided in this embodiment on the basis of the second embodiment, and this embodiment includes all the contents of the second embodiment.


A split-type supporting chassis 300 is added on the basis of the mannequin provided in the second embodiment, which replaces the conventional cast-iron four-legged wheeled chassis. The structure of the split-type supporting chassis 300 in the present application is described in detail hereinafter.


Referring to FIG. 12, the split-type supporting chassis 300 according to the present application includes an intermediate connecting member 301 connected with the bottom of the split-type lifting rod device 100 and multiple supporting foot stands 303 detachably connected with the intermediate connecting member 301.


In this embodiment, referring to FIG. 13, the intermediate connecting member 301 mainly includes a central cylinder which forms a plug-in mounting position for the split-type lifting rod device 100, multiple connecting supports 302 are uniformly provided on an outer wall of the central cylinder, and one supporting foot stand 303 is mounted on each connecting support 302.


In this embodiment, four connecting supports 302 are uniformly provided on the outer wall of the central cylinder, by way of example. In other embodiments, three, five, six or other number of connecting supports 302 may be provided.


In this embodiment, a mounting dent is defined at an end, away from the central cylinder, of the connecting support 302, the mounting dent is a dent recessed inward from one side surface of the connecting support 302, and a first connecting hole extending through the connecting support 302 is defined at the bottom of the mounting dent.


In this embodiment, one end of the supporting foot stand 303 is provided with a mounting protrusion adaptively overlapped with the mounting dent. A second connecting hole corresponding to the first connecting hole is defined on the mounting protrusion, and the first connecting hole is correspondingly in communication with the second connecting hole to form a mounting passage for mounting a fastening screw when the mounting dent is adaptively overlapped with the mounting protrusion. The detachable connection between the intermediate connecting member 301 and the supporting foot stand 303 is realized by the fastening screw.


In another embodiment, a socket may be provided at an end of the connecting support 302 of the intermediate connecting member 301, and one end of the supporting foot stand 303 is configured to be inserted into the socket.


In another embodiment, an internal-threaded mounting hole is defined on the connecting support 302, an external-threaded connecting column is provided at an end of the supporting foot stand 303, so that the connecting support 302 is threadedly connected with the supporting foot stand 303.


In addition to the above connection methods, the connecting support 302 may be detachably connected with the supporting foot stand 303 by other methods, which will not be listed one by one herein.


Since each supporting foot stand 303 is detachably connected with the connecting support 302 in the present application, a mounting angle between the supporting foot stand 303 and the connecting support 302 can be manually adjusted when the ground for the user to place is uneven. Therefore, the supporting foot stand 303 can adapt to the uneven ground and ensure the angle balance of the mannequin.


In this embodiment, in order to further ensure the stability of the split-type supporting chassis 300, the other end, facing away from the connecting support 302, of the supporting foot stand 303 is provided with a supporting foot 304. The supporting foot 304 has a block structure and is hollow inside, while the supporting foot 304 has a horizontal bottom surface. The split-type supporting chassis 300 can be stably supported by the multiple supporting foot stands 303 and the supporting feet 304 thereon when the assembled split-type supporting chassis 300 is placed on the ground.


Therefore, the split-type supporting chassis according to the present application is connected with the split-type lifting rod device by the intermediate connecting member. The detachable design of the intermediate connecting member and the supporting foot stands reduces a horizontal area of the original chassis. During packaging, the split-type supporting chassis is disassembled into multiple small components, thereby reducing the overall packaging volume.


In summary, the mannequin for clothing design according to the present application has the hinge-type foldable assembled fence (which can be understood as a foldable leg frame), the detachable pedal lifting rod and the split-type supporting chassis. The overall packaging volume is reduced, the costs of packaging, transportation and storage are reduced, and the competitiveness of products is improved by the foldable and detachable design of the three modules.


In the present application, the conventional straight-rod lifting rod is replaced by the split-type lifting rod device, the fixed fence iron frame is replaced by the hinge-type foldable assembled fence, and the fixed four-legged chassis is replaced by the split-type supporting chassis. The structural improvements greatly shorten the packaging size of the product during packaging, and the assembly is simple during use of the user, without affecting the use effect. In addition, the overall appearance has no obvious change, which does not cause visual misjudgment by the user. In addition, the split-type supporting chassis according to the present application enables the user to adjust and maintain the angle balance of the product according to the unevenness of the ground.


In summary, regarding the existing technical problems, the present application proposes a new structural design in which the appearance of accessories and the lifting chassis system of the product are designed in a feasible and effective separable mode, so that the original packaging volume is greatly reduced. The packaging length of the existing mannequin after packaging is reduced from 170 cm to 95-105 cm, and the packaging width and the packaging height are unchanged, which greatly reduces the packaging size of the product, reduces the use cost of the product, improves the use interest of the user, and is beneficial to expanding the market share of the product.
