CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION(S)

[0001]This application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 202423318250.8 filed Dec. 31, 2024, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002]The present disclosure relates to the field of swings and, in particular, an adjustable swing.

BACKGROUND

[0003]A swing is a recreational device in which long ropes are tied to a frame, and a user swings back and forth with a seat plate for enjoyment.

[0004]A conventional swing structure includes a support frame. The top of the support frame is connected to a support crossbar. The support crossbar is connected to swing ropes. The swing ropes are securely connected to the seat plate. When playing the swing, the user sits on the seat plate and swings the swing for playing.

[0005]Existing swings usually have fixed sizes, but users of different heights have different size needs for the heights of seat plates of the swings. When a user of low height rides on a swing, the distance from the buttock to a seat plate is high, resulting in the impossibility of riding. When a user of high height rides on the swing, due to the limited height between the seat plate and the ground, the user needs to lift his feet throughout the whole process of playing, and his feet are prone to hitting the ground, which is less safe. That is, the height of the seat plate cannot be adjusted and cannot satisfy the usage needs of the users of different heights, which greatly reduces the applicability of the swing.

[0006]Therefore, an adjustable swing is urgently needed to solve the preceding problems.

[0044]The technical solutions of the present disclosure are further described below in conjunction with the drawings and the embodiments.

[0045]This embodiment discloses an adjustable swing that can have the height of a seat plate adjusted to satisfy the usage needs of users of different heights and have high applicability.

[0046]As shown in FIG. 1, the adjustable swing includes a fastener 1, multiple swing ropes 2, an adjustment rack 3, and a seat plate 4. The fastener 1 is mounted in a preset position. Ends of the multiple swing ropes 2 are connected to the fastener 1. The adjustment rack 3 is located below the fastener 1 and detachably connected to the multiple swing ropes 2, and the size of the adjustment rack 3 can be adjusted to adjust the lengths of the multiple swing ropes 2 in the vertical direction. The seat plate 4 is located below the adjustment rack 3 and connected to the multiple swing ropes 2. When users of different heights use the adjustable swing, the users can change the lengths of the swing ropes 2 between the fastener 1 and the adjustment rack 3 through the size of the adjustment rack 3 so that the lengths of the multiple swing ropes 2 in the vertical direction can be adjusted to adjust the height of the seat plate 4, thereby satisfying the usage needs of the users of different heights and achieving high applicability.

[0047]It is to be noted that the preset position may be a house beam or a door beam and is not limited to indoors or outdoors, as long as the mounting requirements of the fastener 1 are satisfied, and the adjustable swing can be used; the specific position is not specifically limited in this embodiment.

[0048]Further, the adjustment rack 3 is detachably connected to the multiple swing ropes 2 and the position of the adjustment rack 3 is adjustable relative to the fastener 1. It is to be understood that the position of the fastener 1 remains unchanged, and when the size of the adjustment rack 3 is adjusted, the length of the adjustment rack 3 from the fastener 1 is different in the vertical direction, and the lengths of the swing ropes 2 between the adjustment rack 3 and the fastener 1 are also different. In this case, the lengths of the swing ropes 2 in the vertical direction are different, that is, the position of the adjustment rack 3 of the same size relative to the fastener 1 is different, and the lengths of the swing ropes 2 in the vertical direction are different, that is, on the basis of adjusting the size of the adjustment rack 3, adjusting the position of the adjustment rack 3 relative to the fastener 1 can also adjust the lengths of the swing ropes 2 in the first direction. In this manner, this is convenient to operate and facilitates the adjustment of the lengths of the swing ropes 2 in the first direction by the adjustment rack 3, thereby facilitating the adjustment of the height of the seat plate 4.

[0049]Exemplarily, the seat plate 4 whose position is adjustable relative to the fastener 1 is detachably connected to the multiple swing ropes 2. In this manner, the height of the seat plate 4 can be further adjusted under the premise of the adjustment rack 3 changing the height of the seat plate 4 so as to improve the accuracy of the height adjustment of the seat plate 4. Moreover, the position of the seat plate 4 is a position more convenient for the user to operate relative to the user so that the user can further adjust the height of the seat plate 4 precisely. A swing rope 2 may be a structure such as a chain, a webbing, or a rope. In this embodiment, the swing rope 2 is a chain, and the chain includes multiple chain rings. The seat plate 4 is connected to multiple connection ropes 41. An end of each connection rope 41 facing away from the seat plate 4 is mounted with a hook and loop 6 that can be opened and closed freely. The hook and loop 6 is detachably connected to the multiple chain rings on the chain and selectively connected to one of the chain rings so as to make the position of the seat plate 4 adjustable relative to the fastener 1 and make the seat plate 4 detachably connected to the multiple chains. In other embodiments, the seat plate 4 may also be directly mounted at the other ends of the swing ropes 2.

[0050]In this embodiment, the seat plate 4 is made of a flexible material, providing flexible support for the users so as to improve the users' experience.
