[0040] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention, and the technical solution of the present invention is further described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.

[0041] Embodiment 1:

[0042] like Figure 1-Figure 4The expansion head shown is used for installation on a handheld hydraulic device, and includes a mounting base 3 and at least two expansion arms hinged on the mounting base 3. In this embodiment, an expansion arm 1 and an expansion arm 2 17 are hinged on the mounting base 3. This embodiment does not limit the number of expansion arms provided on the mounting base 3, and those skilled in the art can easily understand that merely increasing the number of expansion arms on the mounting base 3 should still be included in the protection scope of this patent.

[0043] It should be noted that the expansion arm 1 and the expansion arm 2 17 provided in this embodiment have the same structure, and different numbers are used to distinguish them only because the expansion arm 1 and the expansion arm 2 17 are provided at different positions. In order to facilitate subsequent explanations, they are distinguished.

[0044] The descriptive words such as "upper end", "lower end" and "horizontal plane" described in this article are not intended to further limit the use status of the product, but are only used for the convenience of explanation based on the illustration direction of the accompanying drawings.

[0045] When the upper ends of the expansion arm 1 and the expansion arm 2 17 are in contact with each other, the expansion head is in a closed state.

[0046] A top column 2 is movably provided in the mounting seat 3 . A top support portion 21 is protruding from the upper end of the top column 2 . A connecting portion 24 is formed at the lower end of the top column 2 . The connecting portion 24 is used to connect to a power source.

[0047] The expansion arm 1 and the expansion arm 2 17 are both formed with an inner supporting inclined surface 13 , and the top supporting portion 21 movably abuts against the inner supporting inclined surface 13 .

[0048] When the top column 2 moves upward along the vertical direction in the mounting seat 3, the top support portion 21 will abut against the inner support inclined surface 13 and slide. Since the inner support inclined surface 13 is inclined relative to the horizontal plane when the inner support inclined surface 13 contacts the top support portion 21, the vertical upward force of the top support portion 21 will be decomposed into part of the horizontal force, so that the expansion arm 1 and the expansion arm 2 17 can rotate, and the upper end of the expansion arm 1 and the upper end of the expansion arm 2 17 are spread apart by the top column 2, so as to realize the expansion action of using the expansion head.

[0049] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, both the expansion arm 1 and the expansion arm 2 17 are formed with a receiving groove 14, and a magnetic attraction member 4 is fixedly arranged in the receiving groove 14, and the magnetic attraction member 4 can attract the top column 2. Therefore, when the expansion head is in a closed state, the rotation of the expansion arm 1 and the expansion arm 2 17 can be restricted to prevent the expansion arm 1 and the expansion arm 2 17 from swinging, thereby injuring the operator or the surrounding personnel.

[0050] like Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, the expansion arm comprises:

[0051] The hinge part 11 is connected to the hinge seat 31 on the mounting seat 3, so that the expansion arm 1 and the expansion arm 2 17 are hinged on the mounting seat 3;

[0052] The execution part 12 is formed with a plurality of expansion parts 15, which are used to abut against the position to be expanded. When the top column 2 moves, the top column 2 will cause the expansion arm 1 and the expansion arm 2 17 to flip to both sides, thereby achieving the purpose of expansion.

[0053] Specific as Figure 4 As shown, when the upper ends of the expansion arm 1 and the expansion arm 2 17 fit each other, that is, the expansion head is in a closed state. The distance between the midpoints of the expansion parts 15 at the same height on the expansion arm 1 and the expansion arm 2 17 is called L. The expansion arm 1 and the expansion arm 2 17 shown in the figure are both formed with four expansion parts 15, so there are L1, L2, L3 and L4 respectively. And the distance between the expansion parts 15 at the upper end is smaller than the distance between the expansion parts 15 at the lower end, that is, L1 <L2<L3<L4。

[0054] Furthermore, the top support portion 21 is formed with the same number of top support surfaces as the expansion arms, and in this embodiment, the top support portion 21 is formed with top support surface 1 22 and top support surface 2 23. When the upper ends of the expansion arm 1 1 and the expansion arm 2 17 fit together, the top support surface 1 22 and the inner support inclined surface 13 on the expansion arm 1 1 are parallel to each other, and the top support surface 23 and the inner support inclined surface 13 on the expansion arm 2 17 are parallel to each other, so that the inner support inclined surface 13 on the expansion arm 1 1 and the expansion arm 2 17 can fit on the outer side of the top support portion 21. In actual work, since the expander needs to prop up heavy objects, the parallel inner support inclined surfaces 13 and the top support surfaces can reduce pressure, prevent parts from being damaged, and extend service life.

[0055] The accommodating groove 14 is formed on the inner supporting inclined surface 13 , so that the inner supporting inclined surface 13 can be more closely fitted on the top supporting surface 1 22 or the top supporting surface 23 .

[0056] like Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, the edge of the top support portion 21 fits with the edge of the top column 2. When the inner support slope 13 and the top support portion 21 are separated as the top column 2 moves, the edge of the inner support slope 13 will still rest against the side wall of the top column 2, thereby ensuring that the expansion state of the expansion head is stable after the expansion arm 1 and the expansion arm 2 17 are rotated to both sides.

[0057] like Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, the upper ends of expansion arm 1 and expansion arm 2 17 are formed with expansion slopes 16, and the expansion slopes 16 gradually shrink in the direction away from the mounting seat 3. The expansion slopes 16 enable the expansion head to extend into smaller gaps to expand the working scene.

[0058] like Figure 1-Figure 6 The handheld electric expander shown includes a housing 6 and an expansion head as described above. A mounting opening 61 is formed on the housing 6 so that the mounting seat 3 can be sleeved on the housing 6 .

[0059] The interior of the housing 6 is used to set a hydraulic device, and the connecting portion 24 of the top column 2 is connected to a transmission rod 25. The transmission rod 25 can enable the hydraulic device in the housing 6 to drive the top column 2 to move.

[0060] Embodiment 2:

[0061] This embodiment is basically the same as the first embodiment, except that the present embodiment does not have a magnetic attraction member 4, but uses a magnetic material to make the top column 2. Thus, the top column 2 can be used to magnetically attract the expansion arm, so that the expansion arm fits on the top column 2, which plays a role in restricting the rotation of the expansion arm.

[0062] Embodiment three:

[0063] This embodiment is basically the same as the first embodiment. Figure 7 As shown, the difference is that the mounting seat 3 is provided with an expansion arm 1 and an expansion arm 3 5 of different shapes, wherein the expansion arm 3 5 is fixed on the mounting seat 3, and the expansion arm 1 is hinged on the mounting seat 3. When the expansion head is in a closed state, the expansion arm 1 will abut against the expansion arm 3 5. Since in this embodiment, only the expansion arm 1 can rotate, the expansion arm 3 5 in this embodiment can be abutted against the wall surface, and the expansion arm 1 can be driven to rotate alone. Thereby, the pressure applied to the side wall surface by the expansion arm 3 5 can be reduced.

[0064] The above embodiments are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, any equivalent changes made based on the structure, shape, and principle of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
