Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of vacuum cleaners, and particularly relates to a quick self-locking and stable structure for connecting vacuum cleaners. Background Art

[0002] Vacuum cleaners can be divided into upright, horizontal and portable types according to their structures. The working principle of a vacuum cleaner is that an electric motor drives the blades to rotate at high speed, generating a negative air pressure inside a sealed housing to suck dust and debris.

[0003] However, after the existing vacuum cleaner tubes are connected, they are prone to problems such as shaking and falling off, which affect the user experience. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to propose a quick self-locking and stable structure for connecting vacuum cleaners to solve the problems of shaking and falling off after the connection of vacuum cleaners. By using self-locking of the mechanism to replace assembly methods such as bayonets, the risk of unhooking and the poor experience of shaking after assembly are solved.

[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the present invention adopts the following technical scheme: A quick self-locking and stable structure for connecting vacuum cleaners, including an accessory male end assembly, a plurality of self-locking blocks, a self-locking rotary switch and a main body female end assembly. A torsion spring is arranged between the main body female end assembly and the self-rotary switch. A threaded groove is arranged inside the self-locking rotary switch. The self-locking blocks can rotate and slide in the threaded groove. The accessory male end assembly is inserted into the self-locking rotary switch. The self-locking blocks are rotationally abutted against the accessory male end assembly. An outer decorative shell is arranged on the outer side wall of the self-locking rotary switch.

[0006] As a further description of the above technical scheme:

[0007] The self-locking rotary switch includes a first connection body and a lock groove body. A first connection groove is arranged on the first connection body. The main body female end assembly includes a second connection body and an extension body. A second connection groove is arranged on the second connection body. One end of the torsion spring is connected in the first connection groove, and the other end is connected in the second connection groove. The extension body extends into the self-locking rotary switch.

[0008] As a further description of the above technical scheme:

[0009] A plurality of limiting grooves are arranged on the extension body. The bottoms of the plurality of self-locking blocks are located in the limiting grooves, and the tops slide in the threaded groove.

[0010] As a further description of the above technical scheme:

[0011] A plurality of rib strips are arranged on the first connection body.

[0012] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0013] The lock groove body is in the shape of a cylindrical tube with a wider outer part and a narrower inner part.

[0014] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0015] The number of the self-locking blocks is three.

[0016] In summary, due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0017] In the present invention, by installing the self-locking rotary switch on the main body female end assembly and rotating the self-locking rotary switch, the self-locking block moves forward along the thread groove. When the accessory male end assembly is inserted into the main body female end assembly, when the accessory male end assembly is assembled in place, affected by the torsion spring, the self-locking block automatically returns along the thread groove to tightly hold the accessory male end assembly, so that the accessory male end assembly cannot shake or fall off; when the accessory male end assembly needs to be separated from the main body female end assembly, it is necessary to rotate the self-locking rotary switch to release the clamped lock block, and the accessory male end assembly is separated from the main body female end assembly. This structure is convenient for disassembly and installation, and will not shake or fall off after installation. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0033] Please refer to Figures 1-6 , the present invention provides a technical solution: a quick self-locking and stable structure for vacuum cleaner connection, including an accessory male end assembly 1, several self-locking blocks 2, a self-locking rotary switch 3, and a main body female end assembly 4. A torsion spring 5 is arranged between the main body female end assembly 4 and the self-rotating switch. A threaded groove 6 is arranged inside the self-locking rotary switch 3. The self-locking blocks 2 can rotate and slide inside the threaded groove 6. The accessory male end assembly 1 is inserted into the self-locking rotary switch 3. The self-locking blocks 2 are rotationally abutted against the accessory male end assembly 1. An outer decorative shell 7 is arranged on the outer side wall of the self-locking rotary switch 3.

[0034] The self-locking rotary switch 3 includes a first connection body 31 and a lock groove body 32. A first connection groove 8 is arranged on the first connection body 31. The main body female end assembly 4 includes a second connection body 41 and an extension body 42. A second connection groove 9 is arranged on the second connection body 41. One end of the torsion spring 5 is connected inside the first connection groove 8, and the other end is connected inside the second connection groove 9. The extension body 42 extends into the self-locking rotary switch 3. The automatic return of the self-locking block in the threaded groove is completed by the torsion spring.

[0035] Several limiting grooves 10 are arranged on the extension body 42. The bottoms of several self-locking blocks 2 are located inside the limiting grooves 10, and the tops slide inside the threaded groove 6. When the self-rotating switch is rotated, the extension body drives the self-locking blocks to rotate.

[0036] Several rib strips 11 are arranged on the first connection body 31.

[0037] The lock groove body 32 is in the shape of a cylindrical tube with a wider outer part and a narrower inner part. The tops of the self-locking blocks move along the lock groove body, so as to realize the locking and loosening of the accessory male end assembly.

[0038] The number of the self-locking blocks 2 is 3. The 3 self-locking blocks are located in 3 limiting grooves, and the self-locking blocks are located on the periphery of the accessory male end assembly.

[0039] Working principle: By installing the self-locking rotary switch on the main body female end component and rotating the self-locking rotary switch, the self-locking block moves forward along the thread groove. Insert the accessory male end component into the main body female end component. When the accessory male end component is assembled in place, affected by the torsion spring, the self-locking block automatically returns along the thread groove to tightly hold the accessory male end component, preventing the accessory male end component from shaking or falling off. When the accessory male end component needs to be detached from the main body female end component, it is necessary to rotate the self-locking rotary switch to release the locking block, and the accessory male end component can be detached from the main body female end component. This structure is convenient for disassembly and installation, and there will be no shaking or falling off after installation.

[0040] The above are only the preferred specific embodiments of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, according to the technical solution and inventive concept of the present invention, making equivalent substitutions or changes, should be covered within the protection scope of the present invention.
