Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of storage accessories technology, and in particular to a portable storage box for AR game interactive props. Background Technology
[0002] With the increasing popularity of augmented reality games and applications, the accompanying AR interactive props, such as dedicated controllers, locators, or sensors, are becoming increasingly sophisticated and complex. These props often integrate high-precision gyroscopes, optical components, and vibration motors, making them extremely sensitive to external physical impacts and vibrations. To make it easier for users to carry these devices, various portable storage boxes have appeared on the market. These storage boxes typically use a hard shell combined with pre-cut foam or elastic straps inside to provide basic containment and fixation for the props.
[0003] However, in actual use, it has been found that this passive protective structure has obvious limitations. When the storage box is accidentally dropped or subjected to a strong impact, the compression of the sponge or the blocking of the hard shell alone is not enough to effectively absorb and disperse the high-intensity impact force generated instantly. The impact energy will penetrate the sponge and be directly transmitted to the prop itself, which can easily cause damage or failure of the internal precision components. Existing designs generally lack graded or active energy absorption mechanisms, resulting in insufficient protection against sudden impacts.
[0004] Therefore, this utility model proposes a portable storage box for AR game interactive props to address the shortcomings of existing technologies. Utility Model Content
[0005] In view of the problems of existing portable storage boxes for AR game interactive props, such as simple buffer structure, lack of graded energy absorption mechanism, and insufficient protection for internal precision props when encountering impact, this utility model aims to provide a portable storage box for AR game interactive props with an improved structure that can effectively solve the above problems.
[0006] This utility model provides a portable storage box for AR game interactive props, including: an outer shell, and an inner shell disposed inside the outer shell; and a protective mechanism that can be retractably connected between the outer shell and the inner shell.
[0007] The protective mechanism includes a sleeve fixedly connected to the outer shell, a slide rod fixedly connected to the inner shell, and a spring sleeved on the outer periphery of the slide rod.
[0008] Furthermore, the slide rod is slidably connected inside the sleeve, and the two ends of the spring abut against the sleeve and the slide rod respectively, forming a first-level impact buffer. A cotton pad is provided on the inner wall of the inner shell, and the cotton pad surrounds to form a placement groove for accommodating props. The cotton pad is used to absorb residual vibration, forming a second-level buffer.
[0009] Preferably, a sliding frame is slidably connected to the inner shell, a net is fixedly connected to the sliding frame, and a handle is fixedly connected to the outer end of the sliding frame. The net is used to cover the opening of the placement slot to prevent the prop from being thrown out during violent shaking or impact.
[0010] Preferably, a support frame is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the outer shell, and a fixing ring is fixedly connected to the support frame. The fixing ring serves as the mounting base for the subsequent quick fixing mechanism, ensuring the stability of the installation.
[0011] Preferably, a rotating ring is rotatably connected to the fixed ring, and a limiting block is also fixedly connected to the fixed ring. The limiting block is used to limit the rotation range of the rotating ring to ensure that it operates within a preset stroke and to prevent damage caused by excessive rotation.
[0012] Preferably, a slider is radially slidably connected to the rotating ring, and the slider is slidably engaged in the inner annular groove of the fixed ring. This engagement method converts the rotational motion of the rotating ring into the radial linear motion of the slider.
[0013] Preferably, a locking pin is fixedly connected to the slider, and a connecting block that engages with the locking pin is provided on the inner wall of the fixing ring. When the rotating ring drives the slider to move and the locking pin engages with the connecting block, the prop can be locked.
[0014] Preferably, an operating rod is rotatably connected to the rotating ring, and a rotating retaining ring is linked to the inner end of the operating rod. The rotating retaining ring is used to expandably lock or release the retaining post. The operator can control the locking and unlocking state of the retaining post by moving the operating rod to achieve quick picking and putting.
[0015] Preferably, multiple protective mechanisms are provided and evenly distributed between the outer shell and the inner shell, so that the inner shell is subjected to more uniform force when it is impacted, and the buffering and energy absorption effect is more stable and reliable.
[0016] This utility model has the following beneficial effects: 1. This utility model solves the problem that existing storage boxes have a single buffer structure, rely on a single material to absorb energy, and are not sufficiently protected when encountering drops or impacts. By setting an external protection mechanism consisting of a sleeve, a spring, and a sliding rod, and cooperating with a cotton pad set inside the inner shell, it achieves a dual buffering effect of the outer spring absorbing the main impact force and the inner cotton pad absorbing the residual vibration, which greatly improves the protection of the internal precision props.
[0017] 2. This utility model solves the problem of cumbersome operation and time-consuming loading and unloading when using straps, Velcro or custom sponge to fix props in existing storage boxes by setting up a quick fixing mechanism consisting of an operating lever, a rotating retaining ring, a rotating ring, a slider, a retaining post and a connecting block. It achieves quick locking and releasing of props by simply moving the operating lever and rotating the rotating ring, which significantly improves the convenience of use.
[0018] 3. This utility model solves the problem of props potentially falling out of the placement slot and causing secondary damage when they encounter severe impact by adding an anti-swing device consisting of a handle, a sliding frame, and a net to the inner shell. It provides additional restraint for the props, preventing them from being thrown out of the box and further enhancing the reliability of the overall protection. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0022] Example: Please refer to Figures 1 to 5This utility model provides a portable storage box for AR game interactive props, including an outer shell 1 and an inner shell 204 disposed inside the outer shell 1. The outer shell 1 provides a mounting base and external protection for the entire device, while the inner shell 204 is used to hold the props. The present solution is that the storage box also includes a protective mechanism 2 that is retractably connected between the outer shell 1 and the inner shell 204. The protective mechanism 2 is used to provide graded cushioning when the storage box is subjected to impact.
[0023] Specifically, the protective mechanism 2 includes a sleeve 201 fixedly connected to the outer shell 1 and a slide rod 203 fixedly connected to the inner shell 204. The slide rod 203 is slidably connected inside the sleeve 201. A spring 202 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the slide rod 203, and the two ends of the spring 202 abut against the sleeve 201 and the slide rod 203 respectively. This constitutes the first-level buffer structure. When impacted, the slide rod 203 slides inside the sleeve 201 and compresses the spring 202 to absorb the impact force. In order to achieve further buffering, a cotton pad 205 is provided on the inner wall of the inner shell 204. The cotton pad 205 surrounds to form a placement groove 206 for accommodating props. The cotton pad 205 is used to absorb residual impact energy and provide a second level of protection for the props.
[0024] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 A support frame 3 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the outer shell 1. A fixing ring 4, which serves as the fixing body, is fixedly connected to the support frame 3. A rotating ring 7 is rotatably connected to the fixing ring 4. A limiting block 5 is also fixedly connected to the fixing ring 4. The limiting block 5 is used to precisely limit the rotation range of the rotating ring 7. A slider 6 is radially slidably connected to the rotating ring 7. The slider 6 is slidably fitted in the inner annular groove of the fixing ring 4. A locking post 8 for directly locking the prop is fixedly connected to the slider 6. A connecting block 9 that engages with the locking post 8 is correspondingly provided on the inner wall of the fixing ring 4.
[0025] The unlocking and locking actions of the fixed assembly are achieved by a sophisticated control mechanism. An operating lever 11 is rotatably connected to the rotating ring 7, and a rotating retaining ring 10 is linked to the inner end of the operating lever 11. The rotating retaining ring 10 is used to expandably lock or release the retaining post 8. When the operating lever 11 is moved to expand the rotating retaining ring 10, the retaining post 8 is released. At this time, rotating the rotating ring 7 can drive the retaining post 8 to separate or engage with the connecting block 9, thereby realizing the quick unlocking and locking of the prop.
[0026] As a supplement to the protective function, a sliding frame 207 is slidably connected to the inner shell 204, and a net 208 is fixedly connected to the sliding frame 207. A handle 209 is fixedly connected to the outer end of the sliding frame 207. By pulling the handle 209, the net 208 can cover the opening of the placement slot 206 to prevent the prop from being thrown out during violent shaking.
[0027] As a preferred embodiment, in order to prevent the prop from falling out of the placement slot 206 under violent shaking or impact, a sliding frame 207 is slidably connected to the inner shell 204, a net 208 is fixedly connected to the sliding frame 207, and a handle 209 is fixedly connected to the outer end of the sliding frame 207. By pulling the handle 209, the net 208 can cover the opening of the placement slot 206, forming an effective physical shield.
[0028] In a preferred embodiment, in order to provide a stable mounting base for the fixing ring 4, a support frame 3 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the outer shell 1, and the fixing ring 4 is then fixedly connected to the support frame 3, ensuring that the fixing mechanism will not shift or deform when bearing the weight of the prop and the operating force.
[0029] In a preferred embodiment, in order to achieve precise control and prevent misoperation, a rotating ring 7 is rotatably connected to the fixed ring 4, and a limit block 5 is also fixedly connected to the fixed ring 4. The limit block 5, by cooperating with the corresponding structure on the rotating ring 7, limits the rotation angle of the rotating ring 7 within a preset working range.
[0030] In a preferred embodiment, in order to enable the rotating ring 7 to drive the locking pin 8 to move radially, a slider 6 is radially slidably connected to the rotating ring 7. The slider 6 is slidably fitted in the inner annular groove opened in the inner wall of the fixed ring 4, which ensures the smoothness and guidance of the movement of the slider 6.
[0031] In a preferred embodiment, in order to lock the prop, a locking post 8 is fixedly connected to the slider 6, and a connecting block 9 that matches the shape of the locking post 8 is provided on the inner wall of the fixing ring 4. When the rotating ring 7 rotates to the locking position, the locking post 8 can be precisely locked into the connecting block 9.
[0032] In a preferred embodiment, to facilitate the operator's control of the locking and unlocking states, an operating rod 11 is also rotatably connected to the rotating ring 7. The inner end of the operating rod 11 is connected to a rotating retaining ring 10 through a linkage mechanism. The rotating retaining ring 10 is designed to expand and lock or release the retaining post 8. Moving the operating rod 11 can drive the rotating retaining ring 10 to move, thereby allowing or restricting the movement of the retaining post 8.
[0033] As a preferred embodiment, in order to improve the buffering energy absorption effect and stability of the overall structure, multiple protective mechanisms 2 can be provided and these protective mechanisms 2 can be evenly distributed in the gap between the outer shell 1 and the inner shell 204, so that the impact force can be more effectively dispersed and absorbed.
[0034] Working principle: When it is necessary to place a prop, the operating lever 11 is moved, which expands the rotating retaining ring 10. At this time, the retaining post 8 can move. The rotating ring 7 is rotated, which causes the slider 6 to slide along the inner wall of the fixed ring 4, thereby causing the retaining post 8 to disengage from the connecting block 9. The limiting block 5 can prevent the rotating ring 7 from exceeding the limit. The support frame 3 can provide support for the fixed ring 4, and the outer shell 1 can provide support for the support frame 3. The prop can then be placed into the fixed ring 4. The rotating ring 7 is then rotated back to its original position, and the operating lever 11 is moved to fix the rotating ring 7, thereby achieving the purpose of quick fixation. When an impact occurs, the protective mechanism 2 comes into play. The impact causes the sliding rod 203 to slide along the inner wall of the sleeve 201, which in turn causes the spring 202 to contract, thereby absorbing the impact force. The remaining impact force is transmitted to the inner shell 204 and then absorbed by the cotton pad 205, thus greatly reducing the impact on the props placed in the placement slot 206. After pulling the handle 209 causes the sliding frame 207 to cover the cotton pad 205, the net 208 can prevent the props in the placement slot 206 from being thrown out, thereby achieving the purpose of protection.
