Abstract

The present invention relates to a kind of front restricting part of baby-car, especially installing on one side of the front of the baby-car's framework a double axes connection, which has a first rotating center along the axes. There still sets a second rotating center along the axes, and a single axes center in the other side of the baby-car's framework. A button installation fastening to the restricting part (e.g. armrest or eating plate) is connected with the single axes center. Depending on this framework, the restricting part is made to rotate and turn up and down. So this invention enables the user to select temporarily placing a down or overturning the armrest or the eating plate, so as to avoid being obstructed while holding the infant in the arm.

Description

BACKGOUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of Invention

The invention is a restricting part of a baby-car. It covers all restricting parts (either an eating plate or an armrest) in the front end of the baby-car's framework. It has a first rotating center along the axes, which controls the restricting part down and a second rotating center along the axes, overturning the restricting part with the first rotating center along the axes as a circumrotating point.

2. Related Art

Usually front armrests are installed in the front of the seat of the baby-car to support the child and to prevent the child from falling down. This structure is found in U.S. Pat. No. 6,267,404. In addition, an eating plate (for putting food and other things) can be installed in front of the seat. So the plate has two functions: 1) baby food can be put on the plate, and 2) the plate prevents babies from falling down. This structure is according to U.S. Pat. No. 6,267,404.

The situation mentioned above makes things convenient for users. However, the conventional armrest or eating plate is fixed in the framework of the baby-car, or fixed while being used and removed when not in use. Consequently, when fixed in the framework of the baby-car, the armrest or the eating plate will become an obstacle people put the child in the baby car or otherwise. Further, the armrest or the eating plate is easily lost if they are removed when not in use. That's rather inconvenient.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The inventor tries to solve the problem mentioned above. The invention mainly installs a double axes connection on one side of the front of the baby-car's framework, which has a first rotating center along the axes. There still is a second rotating center along the axes, and a single axe center on the other side of the baby-car's framework. A button installation fastening the restricting part is connected to the single axe-center. Depending on this framework, the restricting part is made to rotate and turn up and down.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, this invention relates to a restricting structure in the front of a baby-car, which is mainly installed in the front of the baby-[0012] car framework 1, wherein the framework 1 is mainly made of many propping poles connected with each other. There is at least a seat position 11, and can be folded.
The restricting [0013] part structure 2 is installed in the front of the seat 11 of the framework 1 to keep the child in the seat 11, including a restricting part 3, a double axe connection 4 and a hub-lining 43. The restricting part 3 in this example is the armrest or the eating plate, mainly a restricting part body 31, a hub-lining 32 and a buckling part 33. The hub-lining 32 and the buckling part 33 are separately set on both ends of the restricting part body.
The [0014] double axe connection 4, is mainly fixed on one end of the framework. Its body has a pressing button 80 and a first axe rotating center 42. It also has a hub-lining 43, one end is connected to the first axe rotating center 42 of the double axe connection 4, there is an connection hole 90 in the hub-lining, through which it connects with the press button; in the front of the hub-lining 43 is a hub position 44, connected to the hub-lining of the restricting part; the restricting part rotates along the second axe direction according to the hub-lining (referring to FIG. 2, y-y axes),also the restricting part 3 is overturned at the hub-lining 44.
The [0015] single connection 6, is mainly fixed on the other end of the framework, its basic body having a button 80 and a first axe rotating center 42; it also has a buckling position 61, of which the end is connected with a hub to the first axes rotating center 42 of the single axes connection 6, and there is connection hole 90, through which the button is connected 80 to the single axes connection. There is also a buckling part 62 in the other end of the buckling position, through which blocking with the buckling 33 of the restricting part 3 is achieved.
Referring to FIGS. 3, 4, [0016] 5, through the above components, when the restricting part 3 is to be adjusted, the hub-lining 43 and the button 80 of the buckling position 61 are released together, and the restricting part 3 rotates down along the first axes rotating center 42 (referring to FIG. 2 the X-X axes), thus a non-obstacle space is formed in front of the seat 11 of the framework 1. In addition, the operator releases the buckling part 55 of the restricting part 3 joining the buckling part 61, thus the restricting part 3 circumrotates along the hub-lining position 44 of the hub-ling 43 as a second axe-rotating center (y-y axes). Accordingly, the restricting part 3 overturns and is located on one side of the framework 1.
So, with the structure character, mode of combination and operation of specifications defined above, the goal of this invention is clearly seen: to provide a kind of front restricting part for a baby-car, and as the front restricting part of this invention is connected to a double axe connection and a single axe-connection, users are able to fold the restricting part or overturn it on one side of the framework of the baby-car, thus ameliorates the defaults of the conventional fixed or removable restricting parts.

Claims

What is claimed is:

1. A front restricting part structure of baby-car, installed in the front of the framework of baby-car, it at least comprises:

a restricting part which has a basic body, a hub-lining part and a buckling part;

a double axes connection with one end connected by hub to the front end of a side of the framework of baby-car to provide a first axes circumrotating center; the other end of it is connected by hub to the said hub-lining of the basic body of the restricting part, to provide a second axes circumrotating center; and

a single axes connection, one end of which fixed in the front end of the second side of the framework of the baby-car, which provides coaxial circum-rotation to the first rotating center, makes the basic body of the restricting part circumrotate along the first rotating center and changes its height; the other end of the single axes connection has a buckling connection, which is joined to the buckling part of the restricting part by a means that is released, and through this it makes the basic part of the restricting part release or buckle again while rotating along the second axes circumrotating center.
