Benefits of technology

[0003]The primary objective of the present invention is to provide a fast positioning pin for a storage case, and particularly, the storage case is composed of a positioning pin, a plurality of O-rings, and a case body that are arranged in such a way that the storage case can be retained in position through fast and resilient insertion and / or removal of the pin.
[0005]A further objective of the present invention is to provide a fast positioning pin of a storage case, wherein the O-rings have an outer circumference projecting beyond the outer circumference of the positioning pin to thereby form a passive and compressed elastic deformation.
[0006]Yet a further objective of the present invention is to provide a fast positioning pin of a storage case, wherein the O-rings are fit to the positioning pin outside or inside side walls of the storage case to provide a positioning and retaining function similar to raised rims.

Problems solved by technology

However, such a storage box is disadvantageous in that the inner case (or drawer) is not provided with any positioning or retention structure so that when the box is moved, the inner case may get easily separated from the outer enclosure, leading to loss and damage of the articles or objected contained in the inner case.
This is impractical and requires an improvement.

Embodiment Construction

[0015]The following descriptions are exemplary embodiments only, and are not intended to limit the scope, applicability or configuration of the invention in any way. Rather, the following description provides a convenient illustration for implementing exemplary embodiments of the invention. Various changes to the described embodiments may be made in the function and arrangement of the elements described without departing from the scope of the invention as set forth in the appended claims.

[0016]Referring to FIGS. 1-6, the present invention provides a fast positioning pin for a storage case and comprises a positioning pin 1, a plurality of O-rings 2, and a case body 3. The positioning pin 1 comprises a cylindrical bar like body having an outer circumference having opposite end portions forming at suitable locations a plurality of semi-circularly recessed circumferential grooves 12, 12A. The O-rings 2 are made of resilient rubber materials in the form of a ring like body for fitting in...

Abstract

A storage case includes a positioning pin, a plurality of O-rings, and a case body. The positioning pin has an outer circumference having opposite end portions forming recessed circumferential grooves for receiving therein the O-rings for realizing tight engagement. The O-rings have outer circumferences projecting beyond the outer circumference of the pin for passive compressed elastic deformation. As such, the positioning pin is insertable through positioning holes defined in opposite side walls of an end-open case body in such a way that the O-rings are located inside or outside the positioning holes for retention and thus fast, repeatable, and resilient insertion and removal of the storage case can be realized.

Description

(a) TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention generally relates to a fast-positioning pin, which provides a breakthrough of structural arrangement of a conventional storage case by providing a positioning pin extending through positioning bores defined in opposite sidewalls of an open-end case body to realize a positioning operation through fast and resilient insertion and removal.(b) DESCRIPTION OF THE PRIOR ART[0002]A conventional storage box is often of a structural arrangement comprising an outer enclosure and an inner or alternatively an outer enclosure that is divided in a height dimension into several layers to respectively receive inner cases therein by which articles can be received and stored in the cases and the enclosure. However, such a storage box is disadvantageous in that the inner case (or drawer) is not provided with any positioning or retention structure so that when the box is moved, the inner case may get easily separated from the outer enclosu...
