[0001] This application relates to the field of occupational safety and health protection, and in particular to a rotary-locking welding mask. Background Technology
[0002] Welding masks are worn on the head and cover the face to help welders protect themselves from harmful rays such as strong light and ultraviolet rays generated during the welding process, as well as to isolate them from heat, dust, and spatter. During welding operations, the protective lenses often need maintenance or replacement depending on the specific working conditions.
[0003] For example, Chinese patent document CN219516804U discloses a quick-release installation structure for a welded face mask filter. It solves the technical problems of low service life of existing filter disassembly components. It includes a filter installation window on the face mask body, a filter frame with filter elements installed within the window, one end of the window and one end of the frame connected by a snap-fit positioning assembly, and a positioning notch at the other end of the window. A quick-release positioning seat corresponding to the notch is located at the other end of the frame. The quick-release positioning seat contains a positioning pin that can be inserted into the notch, and a quick-release assembly capable of driving the positioning pin is also provided on the seat.
[0004] Similar to the aforementioned literature, the existing lens mounting structures cannot simultaneously meet the requirements of ease of disassembly and assembly, stability and tightness of installation, structural lifespan, ease of assembly, and economic efficiency in production, thus leaving room for improvement. Utility Model Content
[0005] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this application discloses a rotation-locking welding mask, comprising:

[0035] Reference Appendix Figure 1 To be continued Figure 6As shown, this application discloses a rotary-locking welding mask, including a mask body 100 for covering the face, a connector 200 rotatably disposed on the mask body 100, a protective lens 300 for covering a viewing window opened on the mask body 100, and a locking mechanism for locking or unlocking the positional relationship between the two. In this embodiment, the connector 200 has a relative first position (see attached figure). Figure 1 Appendix Figure 5 and appendix Figure 6 (As shown in the figure) and the second position. The locking mechanism includes a locking pin 210 and a locking groove 310 that cooperate with each other. The cooperation between the locking pin 210 and the locking groove 310 is achieved by the movement of the connecting member 200. In the embodiment shown in the figure, the locking pin 210 is disposed on the connecting member 200, and the locking groove 310 is disposed on the protective lens 300. The two can also be interchanged, with the locking pin 210 disposed on the protective lens 300 and the locking groove 310 disposed on the connecting member 200. Further, the locking pin 210 rotates with the connecting member 200 and is eccentrically disposed relative to the rotation axis of the connecting member 200. As can be seen from the figure, the protective lens 300 is provided with locking grooves 310 on both sides, each locking groove 310 cooperates with the corresponding locking member 200, and each second locking member extends along the movement path of the first locking member. In the embodiment shown in the figure, the first locking member is the locking pin 210, and the second locking member is the locking groove 310. The two components can also be interchanged, with the second locking component being the locking pin 210 and the first locking component being the locking groove 310. Each locking groove 310 has a closed locking end 311 at one end and an open disengagement end 312 at the other end. When the connector 200 is in the first position, the locking pin 210 is located at the locking end 311 and engages with the sidewall of the corresponding locking groove 310 to restrict the relative position of the protective lens 300 and the cover 100; when the connector 200 is in the second position, the locking pin 210 can exit the locking groove 310 via the disengagement end 312 to release the relative position of the protective lens 300 and the cover 100.
[0036] The technical solution disclosed in this application optimizes the connection structure between the protective lens 300 and the cover 100, and improves the connector 200, enabling the rapid disassembly and installation of the protective lens 300, while ensuring the stability and airtightness of the protective lens 300 in the installed state, thus ensuring production safety and improving the user experience.
[0037] Reference Appendix Figure 1 and attached Figure 2In the illustrated embodiment, the connector 200 is located on the outside of the cover 100 for easy operation. One connector 200 corresponds to each side of the protective lens 300, allowing for individual locking or unlocking of both sides of the protective lens 300. Multiple connectors 200 can be linked or implemented independently. For the installation of the connector 200, the cover 100 has an adapter hole 130. The connector 200 includes a rotating part 220 that penetrates and inserts into the adapter hole 130 and a drive disk 230 connected to the rotating part 220. The drive disk 230 includes a mating surface 231 that conforms to the cover 100 and / or the protective lens 300 and an outer surface 232 facing away from the rotating part 220. A locking pin 210 is disposed on the mating surface 231. Besides covering the components to improve appearance, the drive disk 230 can also increase its radial dimension to improve the driving feel of the connector 200. In one embodiment, the outer edge of the drive disk 230 can also be provided with a friction-enhancing structure to increase friction. Alternatively, refer to the attached diagram. Figure 2 As shown, the drive disc 230 has a radially protruding drive handle 233 extending toward the protective lens 300. Besides improving the driving feel, the drive handle 233 also provides an indication to the user of the position of the connector 200, thereby preventing accidental unlocking or improper locking of the protective lens 300 due to misoperation. Furthermore, in this embodiment, a locking mark 234 is also provided on the outer surface 232 to further reduce the learning curve.
[0038] For details regarding the fit between connector 200 and protective lens 300, please refer to the attached document. Figure 3 To be continued Figure 6In the illustrated embodiment, the mating surface 231 is further provided with a mating rib 240, which extends in the rotational direction of the connector 200. When the protective lens 300 is installed on the cover 100, at least a portion of the mating rib 240 abuts against the protective lens 300. The locking groove 310 extends in an arc shape, forming a three-sided unconnected peninsula structure 320 on the side edge of the protective lens 300. The side edge of the peninsula structure 320 facing the locking groove 310 constitutes the sidewall of the locking groove 310. When the locking pin 210 is in the first position, the side edge of the peninsula structure 320 facing the locking groove 310 cooperates with the locking pin 210 to lock the protective lens 300. To avoid stress concentration in the peninsula structure 320, a stress relief groove 321 is provided near the locking end 311 of the peninsula structure 320 to prevent tearing between the peninsula structure 320 and other parts of the protective lens 300 at this location. When the protective lens 300 is installed onto the housing 100, the mating rib 240 abuts against the peninsula structure 320 to prevent movement of the peninsula structure 320 and other parts of the protective lens 300 along the rotation axis of the connector 200, thereby improving the installation stability of the protective lens 300. In addition to the above-mentioned function, the mating rib 240 can also be used to improve the mechanical performance of the locking post 210. For example, the mating rib 240 is positioned adjacent to the locking post 210 and the two are connected to each other by a reinforcing rib 250.
[0039] To improve the operational feel of the connector 200, a corresponding guide structure can be provided. Referring to the embodiment shown in the attached drawings, a limiting post 260 is also provided on the mating surface 231, and a positioning groove 140 is provided on the cover 100 to mate with the limiting post 260. The positioning groove 140 includes a first positioning sidewall 141 and a second positioning sidewall 142 facing each other, and a plurality of positioning protrusions 143 located between the two positioning sidewalls. When the connector 200 is in the first position, the limiting post 260 abuts against the first positioning sidewall 141; when the connector 200 is in the second position, the limiting post 260 abuts against the second positioning sidewall 142. During the movement of the connector 200 between the first and second positions, the limiting post 260 passes over the corresponding positioning protrusion 143. The positioning protrusions 143 can provide a change in feel for the drive of the connector 200 while maintaining the relative position of the connector 200, thereby improving the user experience. Further, referring to the attached drawings… Figure 2In the illustrated embodiment, the cover 100 is provided with a stop surface 150. When the protective lens 300 is installed on the cover 100, the stop surface 150 is aligned with the release end 312. When the connector 200 is in the second position, the locking pin 210 abuts against the stop surface 150. The stop surface 150 can also limit the movement stroke of the connector 200. Simultaneously, it can also assist the locking pin 210 in withstanding the impact of the protective lens 300 on the locking pin 210 during installation, improving the stability of the connector 200. In this embodiment, the stop surface 150 and the release end 312 are either abutted or spaced apart.
[0040] As can be seen from the above, the locking strength of the protective lens 300 depends on the connection strength between the connector 200 and the housing 100; therefore, a stable connection is required between the two, such as through fasteners. See also the appendix. Figure 2 Appendix Figure 6 In the illustrated embodiment, the adapter hole 130 is a through-hole, and the connector 200 further includes a positioning member 270 that penetrates through the adapter hole 130 from the other side and engages with the rotating part 220. In this embodiment, the rotating part 220 includes a plurality of spaced-apart engaging parts 221. The outer peripheral surface of the engaging part 221 and the inner peripheral surface of the adapter hole 130 are rotatably engaged with each other. The end of the engaging part 221 away from the drive disk 230 is provided with a claw 222 that engages with the side edge of the adapter hole 130. The positioning member 270 is inserted into the gap between each engaging part 221 and maintains the relative position between each engaging part 221 to prevent the rotating part 220 from disengaging from the adapter hole 130. Furthermore, the engaging portion 221 has a positioning hole 223 near the drive disk 230, and the positioning member 270 has a positioning buckle 271 that mates with the positioning hole 223. The positioning buckle 271 and the positioning hole 223 cooperate to achieve axial connection between the positioning member 270 and the rotating portion 220 along the rotation axis. The positioning member 270 can also assist the rotating portion 220 in improving its connection strength with the cover 100. For example, the positioning member 270 has an engaging structure 272 at the end of the cover 100. Both the engaging structure 272 and the claw 222 cooperate with the side edge of the adapter hole 130 to achieve locking. Figure 6 In the middle, the locking structure 272 and the claw 222 adopt the same structure.
[0041] Thanks to its high-strength installation structure and externally mounted connector 200, the protective lens 300 remains stable during the movement of the housing 100. Therefore, refer to the attached... Figure 1In the illustrated embodiment, the cover 100 includes an outer cover 110 and an inner cover 120 that rotate and engage with each other. A protective lens 300 is mounted on the outer cover 110 via a connector 200. When the connector 200 is in a first position, the protective lens 300 can rotate relative to the inner cover 120 along with the outer cover 110 to open or close the viewing window of the inner cover 120. This double-layer protective cover structure allows for more flexible configuration of the protective lenses 300, thereby improving adaptability.
[0042] Based on the above, those skilled in the art can undoubtedly understand the technical solution of the locking post 210 being disposed on the protective lens 300 and the locking groove 310 being disposed on the connector 200, which will not be elaborated here.
[0043] The technical features of the embodiments described above can be combined arbitrarily. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as the combination of these technical features does not contradict each other, it should be considered to be within the scope of this specification. When technical features of different embodiments are embodied in the same drawing, it can be regarded as the drawing also disclosing examples of combinations of the various embodiments involved.
[0044] The embodiments described above are merely examples of several implementation methods of this application, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the patent application. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this application, and these modifications and improvements all fall within the protection scope of this application.
