DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0027] Below in conjunction with specific embodiment and accompanying drawing, the present invention is further elaborated and illustrated:

[0028] Please refer to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 , a folding joint comprises a first joint 10, a second joint 20, a handle 30, a locking rod 50 , a swing back member 60, a connecting rod 70 , a sliding rod 90 and a reset elastic member 110. In this embodiment, the reset elastic member 110 is a torsion spring.

[0029] One side of the first joint 10 is provided with a first reaming hole 11, and the other side is provided with a first hinge ear 12, and the first hinge ear 12 is provided with a hinge hole 13, and one of the second joint 20. One side of the second joint 20 is provided with a second hinged ear 22, the second hinged ear 22 is provided with a second reaming 23, and the other side is provided with a supporting part 21. A surface 211 of the supporting part 21 is slightly concave inward, and an outer side 212 of the supporting part 21 is a rounded surface. Please refer to FIG. 3 , the first reaming hole 11 of the first joint 10 is hingedly connected with the second reaming hole 23 of the second joint 20 through a hinge shaft 40, and the second joint 20 is provided with a self-locking hook hole, not shown in FIG.

[0030] Please refer to FIG. 4 , one end of the swing back member 60 is provided with a long hole 61, and the other end is provided with a round hole 62.

[0031] Please refer to FIG. 5, one end of the handle 30 is provided with a hinge shaft hole 31, and the other end is provided with a handle. The handle 30 is provided with a step installation hole 33, a sinking groove 34 and a sliding groove 32. The sinking groove 34 is located at the bottom of the s step installation hole 33. Connecting holes 35 are provided on both sides of the step installation hole 33. A connecting shaft 123 is disposed in the connecting hole 35, and the connecting shaft 123 installs the snap button 121 in the step installation hole 33.

[0032] Please refer to FIG. 6 , one end of the snap button 121 is provided with a hook portion 1211, and the other end is provided with a pressing portion 1212 and a reset spring accommodation groove 1213, and the pressing portion 1212 and the reset spring accommodation groove 1213 are respectively located on the two sides of the other end of the snap button 121, a convex portion 1214 and a connection hole 1215 are provided in middle of the snap button 121. The connecting shaft 123 passes through the connection holes 1215 on the snap button 121 and the step installation hole 33 on the handle, the snap button 121 passes through the handle 30. One end of the reset spring 122 is disposed in the sinking groove 34 of the handle 30, and the other end is disposed in the reset spring accommodation groove 1213 on the snap button 121.

[0033] The handle 30 and the swing-back member 60 is hingedly connected to the first hinge ear of the first joint 10 by the hinge shaft 100 passed through the hinge shaft hole 31 on the handle 30, the long hole 61 of the swing back member 60 and the hinge hole 13 on the first hinge ear 12. A torsion spring 110 is sleeved on the hinge shaft 100, one end of the torsion spring 110 abuts on the first joint 10, and the other end abuts on the back swing member 60, so that the other end of the back swing member 60 rotates toward the supporting part 21 on the second joint 20. The locking rod 50 is arranged in the round hole 62 at the other end of the swing back member 60. The sliding rod 90 is arranged in the sliding groove 32 of the handle 30, and the connecting rod 70 is arranged between the locking rod 50 and the sliding rod 90. One end of the connecting rod 70 is provided with an external adjustment thread, and the other end is provided with a connecting threaded hole. The locking rod 50 is provided with a through hole, and the sliding rod 90 is provided with an adjustment threaded hole, one end of the connecting rod 70 is screwed to the sliding rod 90, and the other end of the connecting rod 70 is threadedly connected to the locking rod 50 through a screw passing through a through hole on the locking rod 50.

[0034] Under the action of the reset elastic member 110, the swing back member 60 drives the locking rod 50 to rotate towards the supporting part 21, and the locking rod 50 moves along the rounded surface at outside of the supporting part 21 to the slightly concave surface 211. Turn the handle 30, the sliding rod 90 slides in the sliding groove. When the sliding rod 90 slides to one end of the sliding rod 32, the sliding groove of the handle 30 bears against the sliding rod 90, and the sliding rod 90 pushes the connecting rod 70 and the locking rod 50 to move to the concave surface 211 of the supporting part 21, so that the locking rod 50 presses against the supporting part 21, to achieve locking. Since the side of the supporting part 21 abutting against the locking rod 50 is slightly concave inward, the locking rod 50 is not easy to slide on the surface of the supporting part 21 when locking. When loosening the folding joint, turn the handle 30 and make the handle 30 turn a sufficient angle, the sliding rod 90 slides to the other end of the sliding groove 32, and drives the connecting rod 70 and the locking rod 50 to move away from the supporting part 21, so that the first joint 10 and the second joint 20 are released. That is, even if the handle 30 rotates at a certain angle, as long as the sliding rod 90 does not move the locking rod 50 from the top of the supporting part 21 through the connecting rod 70, due to the effect of the torsion spring 110, the locking rod 50 will still be positioned above the supporting part 21, the first joint 10 and the second joint 20 still cannot be folded, which avoids easy folding of the folded joint due to accidents, and improves the safety of the folded joint. The hook portion 1211 of the snap button 121 is arranged in the self-locking hook hole of the second joint 20, and is used for locking the handle 30, preventing the handle 30 from rotating, and playing the role of double self-locking. When the handle 30 needs to be opened, press the snap button 121 to make the hook 1211 of the snap button 121 disengage from the self-locking hook hole, and then the handle 30 can be rotated.

[0035] It should be noted that, by arranging a long hole 61 at one end of the swing back member 60, the handle 30 is rotated to move the swing back member 60 downward, and the locking rod 50 is pushed against the supporting part 21 to achieve a locking effect. Since the supporting part 21 is not wide, even if one end of the swing back member 60 is not provided with a long hole, the elastic deformation of the sliding rod 90, the connecting rod 70 and the locking rod 50 can be used to make the locking rod 50 push against the supporting part to achieve locking.

[0036] Finally, it should be noted that the above examples are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application, rather than limiting the protection scope of the present application. Although the present application has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solutions of the present application can be modified or equivalently replaced without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present application.
