Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of USB flash drive assembly devices, and specifically relates to a device for assembling USB flash drives. Background Art

[0002] Existing rotating USB flash drives generally include a USB flash drive body and a U-shaped outer shell. A pair of circular convex platform rotating shafts are provided on opposite surfaces of the shell of the USB flash drive body, and through holes that are buckled with the circular platform rotating shafts and can rotate relative to each other are provided on the U-shaped outer shell.

[0003] When assembling a rotating USB flash drive, the user needs to manually spread open the open end of the U-shaped outer shell, and then place the USB flash drive body at the open end while making the positions of the through holes and the circular convex platform rotating shafts correspond. Then, press the U-shaped outer shell to make the through holes and the circular convex platform rotating shafts buckle together, thereby completing the assembly of the rotating USB flash drive. It is convenient to assemble the USB flash drive, but it is not suitable for manual batch assembly. During the process of spreading open the open end of the U-shaped outer shell, it is easy to cause hand fatigue or injury, and the U-shaped outer shell is prone to deformation. Therefore, it is necessary to design a device that facilitates the assembly of the U-shaped outer shell onto the USB flash drive body by a person. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a device for assembling a USB flash drive in view of the defects and deficiencies of the prior art, which has the advantages of convenient use, simple structure, batch production, and facilitating manual batch assembly of rotating USB flash drives by a person.

[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is: a device for assembling a USB flash drive, including: a base; a raised limiting portion is provided on the base; a raised guiding portion is provided on the base at a position opposite to the limiting portion, and the width of the guiding portion increases from the side away from the limiting portion to the side close to the limiting portion. An installation groove is provided between the limiting portion and the guiding portion, and the bottom of the installation groove is lower than the bottom of the guiding portion. The USB flash drive body is inserted into the installation groove, and the open end of the U-shaped outer shell is inserted into the installation groove along the side of the guiding portion away from the limiting portion, so that under the action of its own restoring force, the through holes on the U-shaped outer shell are buckled with the raised circular platform rotating shafts on the USB flash drive body.

[0006] An installation table portion is provided between the guiding portion and the base. The side of the installation table portion close to the limiting portion coincides with the side of the guiding portion close to the limiting portion. The installation groove is surrounded by the guiding portion, the installation table portion, and the limiting portion.

[0007] On one side of the mounting table portion and the guiding portion close to the limiting portion, there are mutually communicating first positioning grooves; on one side of the limiting portion close to the guiding portion, there is a second positioning groove corresponding to the first positioning groove. The two sides of the U disk body are respectively inserted into the mounting groove along the first positioning groove and the second positioning groove.

[0008] The cross-section of the guiding portion is triangular, and the cross-sections of the limiting portion and the mounting table portion are both rectangular.

[0009] The base is rectangular, polygonal, circular or elliptical.

[0010] Rounded corners are provided on the edges of the limiting portion, the mounting table portion, the base and the guiding portion.

[0011] The limiting portion, the mounting table portion, the base and the guiding portion are integrally formed.

[0012] After adopting the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: When assembling the rotating U disk, first insert the two sides of the U disk body into the mounting groove along the first positioning groove and the second positioning groove respectively, and insert the open end of the U-shaped outer shell along the narrow surface to the wide surface of the guiding portion into the mounting groove, so that the two through holes on the U-shaped outer shell are buckled with the convex round table rotating shaft on the U disk body under the action of the self-restoring force of the U-shaped outer shell. It has the advantages of convenient use, simple structure, batch production, and convenient manual batch assembly of the rotating U disk. Description of the Drawings
