According to the principle that can be, it should be interpreted as meaning and concept consistent with the technical idea of the present invention.

Therefore, since the embodiments described in this specification and the configurations shown in the drawings are only one most preferred embodiment of the present invention and do not represent all the technical spirit of the present invention, various equivalents that can be substituted for them at the time of the present application It should be understood that there may be variations and examples.

[ outrigger's composition]

The outrigger according to the present invention includes a seesaw jack 100 , an actuator 200 , and a controller 300 as shown in FIGS. 1 to 4 .

In particular, the seesaw jack 100 is configured so that the height adjustment between the ground and the body (B) of the camping vehicle or caravan can be made by the actuator 200 driven by the controller 300 control, so that whenever and wherever you want By adjusting the height of the outriggers, the body (B) can be maintained in a flat state so that camping vehicles and caravans can be used safely and conveniently.

At this time, the seesaw jack 100 is configured such that the lower arm 120 and the upper arm 130, which are configured to face each other and rotate, are connected in a two-section link form so that the height can be adjusted as they approach or move away from each other, The simple structure makes it easy to manufacture and use, and its small size makes it easy to store and use when needed.

Hereinafter, such a configuration will be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. Here, reference numeral "B" denotes a camping vehicle or caravan body in which various living facilities are installed, and the drawing shows a caravan body as an example.

go. seesaw jack

The seesaw jack 100 is installed between the body (B) and the ground, as shown in Fig. 1 to [Fig. 4], so that height adjustment can be made, thereby lifting the body (B) in a state supported on the ground Lift it up so that it can be leveled.

The seesaw jack 100 includes, as shown in FIG. 2 , a base 110 , a lower arm 120 , an upper arm 130 , a fixing bracket 140 , and a screw 150 .

1. base

The base 110 is used by being installed in close contact with the ground or the floor when using the outrigger, as shown in FIG. 2 , and serves to support other components thereon so that it can move up and down. Accordingly, the base 110 can be manufactured in any shape as long as it has a rotatable structure by supporting other components.

2. lower arm

Two lower arms 120 are mounted so that one end of the lower arm 120 faces each other and rotates on the base 110 as shown in FIG. 2 . At this time, the lower arm 120 has a pin 131 on the other side, and through this pin 131, one side is rotatably mounted on the lower arm 120 and the upper arm 130 is rotated to face each other. installed so that

3. Upper arm

Two of the upper arms 130 are mounted on each of the lower arms 120 described above, as shown in FIG. 2 . At this time, the upper arm 130 is rotatably mounted to the lower arm 120 with the pin 131 facing each other, so that the upper arm 130 and the lower arm 120 as shown in FIG. 3 . When these rotate to face each other, the height between the ground and the body (B) is lowered, and as shown in [Fig. 4], when the upper arm 130 and the lower arm 12 rotate away from each other in opposite directions, the ground and the body ( The height between B) is increased to allow the body (B) to be lifted off the ground.

Meanwhile, any one of the two pins 131 is rotatably mounted to the lower arm 120 and the upper arm 130 as shown in [Fig. 2], but there is no interference when the arms rotate. A support member 210 to be described later is mounted on the support member 210 so that an actuator 200 to be described later is mounted on the support member 210 so that the screw 150 is rotated by driving the actuator 200 so that these lower arms 120 and It is configured so that the height can be adjusted by adjusting the gap between the upper arms 130 .

4. Fixed bracket

The fixing bracket 140 is a bracket that supports and fixes the other side of the two upper arms 130, that is, the side not connected to the lower arm 120, so that it can rotate in place, as shown in FIG. 2 .

In particular, the fixing bracket 140 is in close contact with the lower part of the body (B) as shown in [Fig. 3], and the lower arm 120 and the upper arm 130 are driven by the actuator 200 to be described later. 140) by lifting the body (B) together so that the height adjustment can be made. Accordingly, the fixing bracket 140 is formed in a flat shape so as to be kept in close contact with the body (B), or configured to be in a “C” shape so that it can be fitted into the frame constituting the body (B), or “ It can be configured in a variety of forms, such as configured to be in the shape of a "b", or configured to be inserted into the body (B).

In addition, when the fixing bracket 140 is fixed to the body B and controlled to operate an actuator 200, which will be described later, as shown in FIG. 2, the base 110 comes down and touches the ground or the floor. It can also be configured so that the body (B) can be lifted upward. Alternatively, the fixing bracket 140 is separated from the body B, and when in use, the base 110 is placed in contact with the floor or the ground, and then, as the actuator 200 operates, the fixing bracket 140 moves upward. It may be configured so that height adjustment can be made by lifting the body (B) by touching the body (B) while ascending.

5. screw

The screw 150 is formed so as to be inserted through the pin 131 that is the rotation center of the lower arm 120 and the upper arm 130 described above, as shown in FIG. 2 .

At this time, the screw 150, as shown in [Fig. 2], is mounted to one of the two pins 131 to rotate in place, the other is mounted to be fastened by a screw fastening method. This is, by mounting an actuator 200 to be described later on one side of the screw 150 mounted so as to be able to rotate in place, and as the screw 150 is rotated, one pin 131 rotates in place and the other screwed This is to enable one pin 131 to adjust the height between the lower arm 120 and the upper arm 130 while moving in the longitudinal direction of the screw 150 .

The screw 150 made in this way is rotated by driving the actuator 200 mounted on the support member 210 to be described later, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 , and the screw 150 is driven by the actuator 200 . ) to move one pin 131 that rotates in place according to the direction in which the other pin 131 faces each other and moves close to each other to increase the height of the lower arm 120 and the upper arm 130, or vice versa By moving one pin 131 rotating in place to the other pin 131 facing each other and moving away from each other, the height of the lower arm 120 and the upper arm 130 is lowered so that the height can be adjusted. .

me. actuator

The actuator 200 is mounted on the pin 131 described above, as shown in FIG. 2 . At this time, the actuator 200 is connected to the pin 131 mounted to rotate in place on the screw 150 , so that the rotational force of the actuator 200 can be stably transmitted to the screw 150 .

In addition, the actuator 200, as shown in [Fig. 2], in order to prevent interference between the rotating lower arm 120 and the upper arm 130 from occurring, the support member 210 mounted to the pin 131 ), it is preferable to mount it so that the screw 150 can be stably rotated stably. Accordingly, the support member 210 is preferably mounted on the pin 131 in a shape and size that does not cause rotational interference even when the lower arm 120 and the upper arm 130 rotate while the screw 150 is installed. .

As the actuator 200 , any one capable of rotating the screw 150 may be used, for example, a driving motor may be exemplified.

All. controller

The controller 300 is configured to control the actuator 200 described above, as shown in FIG. 2 . To this end, the controller 300 may be configured to be attached to the actuator 200 or may be configured as a separate type. In addition, the controller 300 may be connected to the actuator 200 by wire to control the operation.

The controller 300 controls the actuator 200 to rotate in one direction to increase the height of the outrigger, or to lower the height of the outrigger by causing the actuator 200 to rotate in the other direction.

As described above, according to the present invention, by mounting an outrigger in a camping vehicle or caravan, even if the ground or floor is not flat, the camping vehicle or caravan can be installed flat and safely used regardless of this.
