Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of swimming pool equipment, in particular to a telescopic rod locking structure of a swimming pool cleaning tool. Background Art
[0002] Swimming pools need to be regularly maintained, cleaned and serviced during use. Since the outer structure of the swimming pool is very large, it is no longer possible to clean it with brushes, scoop nets and other tools by hand, so a very long telescopic rod is needed to be put on the brush, scoop net and other tools, and then people can easily use the telescopic rod to push the cleaning tools deep into the bottom and wall of the pool to clean the swimming pool. There are two types of existing telescopic rods for swimming pools: one is an external locking structure, which is to fix a part of the male threaded plastic part on the outer rod, and then twist the female thread to achieve the effect of positioning the telescopic rod; the other is an internal locking structure, which mainly uses a metal eccentric wheel structure. Twisting the inner rod makes the eccentric wheel fit tightly with the inner wall of the outer rod to achieve the effect of positioning. However, both structures have their own design defects in the actual use of swimming pool cleaning. For the external locking structure, after the user completes the cleaning work nearby and needs to clean the pool wall in the distance, he must first get the male and female plastic parts, unscrew the plastic parts, stretch the aluminum rod to the required length, and then tighten the male and female plastic parts again, and adjust repeatedly according to the required length, which has the problems of short service life, low work efficiency, and cumbersome operation; for the internal locking structure, since the eccentric wheel is a metal product, there are certain disinfecting chemical components in the swimming pool, which can easily corrode the eccentric wheel and cause pollution of the swimming pool water, and the direction of the force used in the extension and retraction process of the eccentric wheel must be perpendicular to the eccentric wheel, but the arm length of a person's hand during the extension process is far from the required length requirement, so the distance at which the force is perpendicular to the eccentric wheel is very short. If the length exceeds this, the eccentric wheel will rub against the inner wall of the outer rod to produce a harsh friction sound, and even the eccentric wheel may be stuck on the inner wall of the outer rod, and the rod may shake or get stuck during the extension. On the one hand, the noise will make people feel uncomfortable, and on the other hand, it will cause great trouble to the user. Utility Model Content

[0033] like Figure 1-5 As shown, the following embodiments disclose a telescopic rod locking structure of a swimming pool cleaning tool.
[0034] At least it includes a first rod 100 and a second rod 200 which are socketed with each other, wherein the first end of the first rod 100 is connected to the cleaning body, and the second end is movably connected to the second rod 200; a locking assembly 300 is arranged between the first rod 100 and the second rod 200, and the locking assembly 300 has a fixing portion and a locking portion, the fixing portion is fixed to the first rod 100 / the second rod 200, the locking portion is movably connected to the second rod 200 / the first rod 100, and can fix the second rod 200 / the first rod 100, so that the first rod 100 and the second rod 200 have an active state and a locked state.
[0035] The above is the basic solution of this embodiment.
[0036] Specific reference Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, the first end of the first rod 100 is connected to the cleaning body, and the second end is connected to the second rod 200; in order to increase the telescopic range of the telescopic rod, a third rod is also provided in this embodiment, and the third rod is used as a handle.
[0037] Two locking assemblies 300 are also provided, and are respectively arranged between two adjacent rods.
[0038] The fixing parts of the locking assembly 300 are both on the first rod 100 and extend outside the first rod 100 for connecting with the second rod 200; the locking part is movably arranged on the second rod 200; when the first rod 100 and the second rod 200 are sleeved, the locking part and the fixing part are connected, and the locking part is operated to lock the fixing part, so that the locking assembly 300 cannot move, and the first rod 100 and the second rod 200 cannot move relative to each other, thereby completing the locking.
[0039] Preferably, in this embodiment, the first rod 100 is an outer tube, and the second rod 200 is an inner tube that can extend into the first rod 100 .
[0040] The end of the second rod 200 is inserted into the first rod 100 and moves along the axis relative to the first rod 100 , thereby completing the telescopic connection between the first rod 100 and the second rod 200 .
[0041] In this embodiment, the locking assembly 300 includes a sleeve 310, and the sleeve 310 is formed into a fixed sleeve 311 and a movable sleeve 312, and the outer sleeve of the movable sleeve 312 is provided with a locking ring 320;
[0042] The fixing portion is the region of the fixing sleeve 311 , and the locking portion is the region of the movable sleeve 312 and the locking ring 320 .
[0043] Reference Figure 1 As shown, the sleeve 310 is sequentially provided with a fixed sleeve 311 and a movable sleeve 312, the fixed sleeve 311 is used to be fixed to the first rod 100, the movable sleeve 312 is located outside the first rod 100 and connected to the second rod 200; the locking ring 320 is sleeved to the outside of the movable sleeve 312 to lock the movable sleeve 312;
[0044] When the locking ring 320 locks the movable sleeve 312, the movable sleeve 312 is pressed against the second rod 200, so that there is a great friction between the inner wall of the movable sleeve 312 and the second rod 200, thereby preventing the second rod 200 and the movable sleeve 312 from moving, thereby fixing the second rod 200 and the first rod 100;
[0045] Preferably, in this embodiment, to ensure the appearance consistency of the locking assembly 300 , the outer diameter of the movable sleeve 312 is smaller than the outer diameter of the fixed sleeve 311 , and when the locking ring 320 is sleeved onto the outside of the movable sleeve 312 , it has a relatively consistent appearance with the fixed sleeve 311 .
[0046] In this embodiment, the specific implementation of the clamping structure between the movable sleeve 312 and the second rod 200 is as follows: a locking plate 312.1 is provided on the movable sleeve 312, and the locking plate 312.1 can be bent and deformed toward the inside of the movable sleeve 312 under the action of external force, and contact and press with the rod in the movable sleeve 312 to form a lock.
[0047] Specific reference Figure 2 As shown, in order to ensure the consistency between the locking plate 312.1 and the movable sleeve 312, the locking plate 312.1 is set to an arc shape consistent with the inner diameter of the movable sleeve 312, and the locking ring 320 squeezes the arc plate so that the arc plate bends toward the inside of the movable sleeve 312, and presses against the outer wall of the internal second rod 200 to form a locking state.
[0048] Preferably, in this embodiment, the locking piece 312.1 is an elastic piece, the elastic piece is molded on the movable sleeve 312, and the movable sleeve 312 has an avoidance hole capable of accommodating the passage of the elastic piece.
[0049] In order to enable the locking ring 320 to be smoothly mounted on the movable sleeve 312, a circular inner cavity is provided on the inner wall of the locking ring 320, and the locking plate 312.1 is squeezed through the circular inner wall. In this embodiment, the locking ring 320 is provided with a driving part 321 that can push the locking plate 312.1 toward the center of the movable sleeve 312.
[0050] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the locking ring 320 rotates around the central axis, so the driving part 321 also rotates accordingly. When it rotates to the position of the locking plate 312.1, the locking plate 312.1 is squeezed, so that the locking plate 312.1 is pushed toward the center, so that the locking plate 312.1 is tightly pressed against the outer end surface of the second rod 200.
[0051] Preferably, in this embodiment, the driving portion 321 is configured as a convex strip convexly provided on the inner wall of the locking ring 320 along the axis.
[0052] In this embodiment, one implementation of the location of the locking piece 312.1 is as follows:
[0053] A U-shaped hollow portion 312.2 is provided on the peripheral wall of the movable sleeve 312, and the hollow portion 312.2 surrounds a portion to form a locking piece 312.1 whose one end is connected to the movable sleeve 312.
[0054] Preferably, in order to correspond to the outer shape of the locking piece 312.1, the hollow portion 312.2 is a lying U-shape.
[0055] Reference Figure 2 As shown, the two circumferential ends of the locking plate 312.1 are respectively a locking end b and a connecting end, and the connecting end is integrally formed with the movable sleeve 312; at the same time, an avoidance hole is circumferentially arranged on the movable sleeve 312, and the shape of the avoidance hole is at least consistent with the locking plate 312.1, which can accommodate the bending and resetting of the locking plate 312.1; in this embodiment, in order to allow the locking plate 312.1 to bend freely and reduce contact, the shape of the avoidance hole is larger than the locking plate 312.1, that is, a gap is left between the three hole walls of the avoidance hole and the locking plate 312.1, and the gap is the hollow part 312.2 formed on the movable sleeve 312; when the locking end b of the locking plate 312.1 is bent and deformed, the end face has no contact, so it can bend or reset freely.
[0056] In this embodiment, the two circumferential ends of the locking plate 312.1 are respectively a fixed end a and a locking end b, and the locking end b can extend into the movable sleeve 312 and contact the rod; an unlocking groove 312.3 is provided on the outer surface of the fixed end a, and the unlocking groove 312.3 can accommodate the driving part 321.
[0057] The driving part 321 is a convex part arranged on the inner wall of the locking ring 320. The inner wall of the locking ring 320 matches the outer wall of the movable sleeve 312. Therefore, when the driving part 321 contacts the outer wall of the movable sleeve 312 during the rotation process, the locking ring 320 and the movable sleeve 312 are pushed apart, so that the locking ring 320 or the movable sleeve 312 is deformed.
[0058] Therefore, refer to Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, an unlocking groove 312.3 is provided at the connecting end of the locking plate 312.1, and the driving part 321 can be accommodated in the unlocking groove 312.3; when in the unlocking position, the driving part 321 cooperates with the unlocking groove 312.3. At this time, the inner wall of the locking ring 320 and the outer wall of the movable sleeve 312 are still matched, and no deformation will occur, thereby ensuring the appearance consistency of the plastic part.
[0059] In this embodiment, refer to Figure 6 As shown, in order to support the locking ring 320 and prevent the locking ring 320 from moving axially, a limiting sleeve 330 is also included. The limiting sleeve 330 is sleeved on the upper end of the movable sleeve 312 to limit the axial movement of the locking ring 320.
[0060] Preferably, in this embodiment, the limiting sleeve 330 is fixed to the end of the movable sleeve 312, and the outer diameter thereof is not less than the inner diameter of the locking ring 320. In the connected state, the limiting sleeve 330 is sleeved to the outside of the second rod 200.
[0061] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not constitute any form of limitation to the present invention. Although the present invention has been disclosed as a preferred embodiment as above, it is not intended to limit the present invention. Any technical personnel in this field can make some changes or modify the technical contents disclosed above into equivalent embodiments without departing from the scope of the technical solution of the present invention. However, any brief modifications, equivalent changes and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention without departing from the content of the technical solution of the present invention are still within the scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
