Handle height adjusting mechanism and child carrier therewith
A handle height adjusting mechanism includes an upper fixing base, a lower fixing base pivoted to the upper fixing base, and an engaging component movably disposed between the upper fixing base and the lower fixing base and for engaging with the upper fixing base and the lower fixing base. The engaging component includes a protrusion. The handle height adjusting mechanism can adjust a handle height and prevent accidental folding operation of a child carrier for enhancing safety. The present application further discloses the child carrier having the handle height adjusting mechanism.
1. A handle height adjusting mechanism comprising:
an upper fixing base;
a lower fixing base pivotable to the upper fixing base; and
an engaging component movably disposed between the upper fixing base and the lower fixing base in an axial direction of the engaging component and for engaging with the upper fixing base and the lower fixing base, the engaging component comprising a protrusion protruding in the axial direction,
wherein
the engaging component is a gear including a plurality of gear teeth on a circumference of the gear, and
the protrusion is at least partially positioned between two adjacent gear teeth among the plurality of gear teeth and on the circumference of the gear.
2. The handle height adjusting mechanism of claim 1 , wherein the upper fixing base comprises a first engaging portion, and a width of the first engaging portion is greater than a width of the protrusion.
3. The handle height adjusting mechanism of claim 2 , wherein a blocking portion is disposed on a side of the first engaging portion and for abutting against the protrusion, and the upper fixing base is allowed to rotate within a predetermined angular range when the engaging component separates from the upper fixing base and the protrusion engages with the first engaging portion.
4. The handle height adjusting mechanism of claim 3 , wherein the upper fixing base comprises at least one first gear tooth, the lower fixing base comprises at least one second gear tooth for engaging with the gear, and the gear engages with the at least one first gear tooth when the gear slides into the upper fixing base.
5. A handle height adjusting mechanism comprising:
an upper fixing base;
a lower fixing base pivoted to the upper fixing base; and
an engaging component movably disposed between the upper fixing base and the lower fixing base and for engaging with the upper fixing base and the lower fixing base, the engaging component comprising a protrusion,
wherein the upper fixing base comprises a first engaging portion, and a width of the first engaging portion is greater than a width of the protrusion,
wherein a blocking portion is disposed on a side of the first engaging portion and for abutting against the protrusion, and the upper fixing base is allowed to rotate within a predetermined angular range when the engaging component separates from the upper fixing base and the protrusion engages with the first engaging portion,
wherein the engaging component is a gear, the upper fixing base comprises at least one first gear tooth, the lower fixing base comprises at least one second gear tooth for engaging with the gear, and the gear engages with the at least one first gear tooth when the gear slides into the upper fixing base, and
wherein the width of the first engaging portion is equal to a sum of the width of the protrusion and a tooth pitch of the engaging component.
6. The handle height adjusting mechanism of claim 2 , wherein the upper fixing base comprises a second engaging portion for engaging with the protrusion.
7. A handle height adjusting mechanism comprising:
an upper fixing base;
a lower fixing base pivoted to the upper fixing base; and
an engaging component movably disposed between the upper fixing base and the lower fixing base and for engaging with the upper fixing base and the lower fixing base, the engaging component comprising a protrusion,
wherein the upper fixing base comprises a first engaging portion, and a width of the first engaging portion is greater than a width of the protrusion,
wherein the upper fixing base comprises a second engaging portion for engaging with the protrusion,
wherein a first driving inclined surface is formed on a side of the second engaging portion, and when the second engaging portion engages with the protrusion, the first driving inclined surface is configured to drive the protrusion to separate from the second engaging portion so as to allow the upper fixing base to rotate in a first rotating direction.
8. The handle height adjusting mechanism of claim 6 , wherein the first engaging portion and the second engaging portion are separated by 180 degrees.
9. The handle height adjusting mechanism of claim 1 , further comprising a recovering component installed between the lower fixing base and the engaging component and for driving the protrusion to engage with the upper fixing base.
10. The handle height adjusting mechanism of claim 9 , wherein the recovering component is a compression spring.
11. The handle height adjusting mechanism of claim 1 , further comprising an operating component movably disposed on a side of the upper fixing base or the lower fixing base and for driving the engaging component to move along the axial direction.
12. A child carrier comprising an upper handle, a frame, and the handle height adjusting mechanism of claim 1 , the frame comprising a lower handle, the upper handle being connected to the upper fixing base, and the lower handle being connected to the lower fixing base.
13. The child carrier of claim 12 , further comprising a folding driving assembly comprising a driving component, a drawing component and an operating mechanism, the operating mechanism being installed on the upper handle, the drawing component being disposed between the driving component and the operating mechanism, and the driving component being disposed on a side of the engaging component and for driving the engaging component to separate from the upper fixing base so as to fold the upper handle.
