Fig. 1 is a schematic structural view of a foldable marking system in an embodiment of the present invention; as shown in Fig. and the fuselage 104 between the base 102, the upper cover 106 is provided with an upper cover connecting element 118, and the base 102 is provided with a base connecting element 116, and the upper cover connecting element 118 is combined with the base connecting element 116 so that The fuselage 104 maintains at least a partially folded state.

Hereinafter, for convenience of description, the foldable marking system 100 is referred to as the marking system 100 for short.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 1 , the body 104 is connected to the base 102 at a first end, and the upper cover 106 is connected to the body 104 at a second end of the body 104 opposite to the first end. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 1 , the base 102 is circular, and understandably, the base 102 may also be rectangular, oval, hexagonal or other shapes.

Base 102 may provide weight and stability to marking system 100 . The base 102 may be completely or partially made of rubber or rubber material. The material of base 102 can be adapted to mechanical, chemical and thermal conditions. The material of the base 102 should also provide grip relative to the ground or surface on which it is placed.

A weight assembly may be provided in the base 102, or the base 102 itself should have an inherent weight sufficient to withstand the operation of the marking system 100. The base 102 is provided with a surrounding edge 108, the surrounding edge 108 forms an annular convex on the outside of the base 102 to surround the fuselage 104 of the marking system 104, and the surrounding edge 108 forms a groove on the inner side of the base 102 for receiving and fixing the 104 on the fuselage.

In other embodiments, the base 102 may include other components or fixing elements or components. For example, the base 102 can be connected to the main body 104 through connecting parts such as zippers, buckles, hooks, buttons, clips or pins.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 2 , the base connecting element 116 is a ring corresponding to the upper cover connecting element 118 , such as a buckle. The base attachment element 116 may be attached to the base 102 by molding, gluing, adhering, connecting components, or the like. Additionally, a base connection element 116 may be coupled to the fuselage 104 (on or adjacent to the base 102 ). When the body 104 of the marking system 100 is folded, the base connecting member 116 can connect, bear or otherwise connect to the upper cover connecting member 118 to keep the marking system 100 stable in the folded state. Other types of connecting elements 116 and 118 are also contemplated herein.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 2, the fuselage 104 is generally cylindrical in shape. It can be understood that the fuselage 104 may be substantially circular, or may have a square geometric appearance. Fuselage 104 includes exterior material 110 . The exterior material 110 may have elasticity, abrasion resistance and soil resistance. The nature of the outer material 110 is flexible to facilitate folding of the fuselage 104 . Additionally, the flexibility of the outer material 110 may also promote weather and impact resistance. The outer material 110 may also have fire or flame retardant properties. In some embodiments, the outer material 110 is UV resistant.
