The rotating column 331 is arranged in the guide groove 24 and can move and rotate in the guide groove 24.

[0032] The surface of the above-mentioned locking column 22 is provided with meshing teeth to increase the friction with the pull rope 1.

[0033] The above-mentioned pull rope 1 is a pull rope with a pull bead or a pull rope without a pull bead, and the present application is suitable for both the pull bead rope and the smooth pull rope.

[0034] Principle of operation:

[0035] The lowering or lifting of the roller blind needs to pull the pull rope 1 on one side to move downward, the present application can slide up and down along the direction of the pull rope 1, in the process of downward sliding, the guide device 3 needs to rotate reversely to the pull rope 1 which needs to be pulled, and the rotating part 33 reversely moves from the middle position of the guide groove 24 to the pull rope 1 on this side, so that the rotating column 331 clamps the pull rope 1 between the rotating column 331 and the locking column 22, so that the present application moves downward and clamps the pull rope 1 in the present application and moves downward together, so as to lift or lower the roller blind.

[0036] The bottom of the guide wheel 31 is provided with a spring 32, the other end of the spring 32 is fixed in the operating holding part 34. When the present operating mechanism moves downward, the spring 32 will pull the guide wheel 31 tightly, so as to pull the pull rope 1 tightly and clamp the pull rope 1. When the downward pulling force of the present operating mechanism is released, the guide wheel 31 is automatically released, so that the clamped pull rope 1 of the guide device 3 and the locking device 2 is released, the guide device 3 returns to the vertical state, the pull rope 1 is not in the clamped state, so that when the present operating mechanism moves upward, the pull rope 1 will not be driven together.

[0037] Example 2

[0038] AsFigures 1 to 5 、 Figure 7 As shown in Fig. 1, a roller shutter operating mechanism comprises a locking device 2 and a guiding device 3:

[0039] The upper end of the locking device 2 is open, and a guiding piece 4 is arranged in the opening to guide the in-and-out of the pull rope 1.

[0040] The locking device 2 comprises a housing 21, and a guiding groove 24 is fixedly arranged in the housing 21 to move a rotating column 331. The middle of the guiding groove 24 is higher than the two sides, the middle of the guiding groove 24 is located in the middle of the housing 21, and the two sides of the guiding groove 24 are arranged with movable locking columns 22 at positions higher than the middle. A vertical partition wall 25 is arranged at the highest position of the middle of the guiding groove 24 to form two symmetrical locking column 22 moving spaces in the housing 21, and the locking columns 22 are respectively located on the left and right sides of the partition wall 25.

[0041] The rotating part 33 comprises a cylindrical rotating column 331 at the end, and a clamping part 332 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the rotating column 331 and connected to the operating handle 34. The width of the two sides of the clamping part 332 is greater than the diameter of the rotating column 331, and the two sides of the rotating column 331 are provided with a channel for the pull rope 1 to enter and exit the rotating part 33 to the operating handle 34. The rotating column 331 is arranged in the guiding groove 24, and the rotating column 331 can move and rotate in the guiding groove 24.

[0042] The surface of the locking column 22 is provided with meshing teeth to increase the friction with the pull rope 1.

[0043] The side wall of the locking column 22 moving space towards the outer wall of the housing 21 is provided with a rack 23 which is engaged with the meshing teeth.

[0044] The pull rope 1 is a pull rope with a pull bead or a pull rope without a pull bead, and the present application is suitable for both pull bead ropes and smooth pull ropes.

[0045] Operating principle:

[0046] The lowering or lifting of the roller blind requires pulling the pull cord 1 on one side to move downwards. The present application can slide up and down along the direction of the pull cord 1. During the process of sliding downwards, the guide device 3 needs to rotate reversely to the side of the pull cord 1 that needs to be pulled, and the rotating part 33 reversely moves from the middle position of the guide groove 24 to the pull cord 1 on that side. The rotating part 33 pushes the pull cord 1 to the locking column 22 and the locking column 22 contacts. Since the present application is sliding downwards at this time, the locking column 22 can move upwards in the active space due to the friction of the pull cord 1, and the locking column 22 moves upwards in the active space until the locking column 22 moves to the upper end of the active space. After the locking column 22 cannot move, the locking column 22 and the rotating column 331 clamp the pull cord 1 therebetween, so that the pull cord 1 cannot move relative to the locking column 22 and the rotating column 331. Thus, the present application clamps the pull cord 1 inside and moves downwards together when the present application moves downwards, so as to lift or lower the roller blind.

[0047] The locking column 22 is provided with a rack 23 on the side wall of the outer wall of the housing 21, and the meshing teeth on the surface of the locking column 22 can mesh with each other. When the locking column 22 is located at the upper end of the active space and the present application continues to slide downwards, the pull cord 1 will have a force to slide the locking column 22 downwards. The meshing teeth on the surface of the locking column 22 and the rack 23 can keep the locking column 22 fixed in position when the present application slides downwards.

[0048] The bottom of the guide wheel 31 is provided with a spring 32, and the other end of the spring 32 is fixed to the operating grip part 34. When the present operating mechanism moves downwards, the spring 32 will be pulled tight to pull the pull cord 1 tight, so as to clamp the pull cord 1. When the present operating mechanism releases the downward pulling force, the guide wheel 31 is automatically released, so as to release the clamping of the pull cord 1 by the guide device 3 and the locking device 2. The guide device 3 returns to the vertical state, so that the pull cord 1 is not in the clamped state, and the pull cord 1 will not be driven together when the present operating mechanism moves upwards.

[0049] The specific embodiments described in the present application are only examples to illustrate the spirit of the present application. Those skilled in the art of the present application can make various modifications or supplements to the described specific embodiments or use similar ways to replace them, without departing from the spirit of the present application or exceeding the scope defined by the appended claims.
