[0039] The present application will be further described below in conjunction with the drawings and examples.

[0040] Example 1

[0041] In a typical embodiment of the present application, a detachable and multipurpose assembly pre-hanging device is proposed, as shown in Figures 1-6 In combination Figure 9 As shown, it comprises:

[0042] The ratchet spring assembly 1 comprises an upper guide rail sleeve 11, a toothed rod 12, a toothed rod button 13, a lower guide rail sleeve 14, and a spring 15; the upper guide rail sleeve 11 and the lower guide rail sleeve 14 are connected by a thread 113, the toothed rod 12 is placed in the upper guide rail sleeve 11 and the lower guide rail sleeve 14, the toothed rod 12 is provided with bevel gears 121, the toothed rod button 13 is provided with a notch 132 and a sawtooth edge 131 at the end; the bevel gears 121, the notch 132, and the sawtooth edge 131 cooperate to eject or recover the toothed rod 12;

[0043] The adjustable limit structure assembly 2 comprises a top rod 21, a flange sleeve 25, a movable limit block 22, and a belt 24; the movable limit block 22 is rotatably installed at the lower end of the lower guide rail sleeve 14, the belt 24 is installed in the groove of the movable limit block to provide the retracting force of the expanded movable limit block, and the flange sleeve 25 is connected to the lower guide rail sleeve 14 by a thread.

[0044] AsFigure 3 As shown, the inner wall of the upper guide rail sleeve 11 is provided with a guide rail 111, which cooperates with the notches 132 on the rack button 13, and the rack button 13 moves linearly in the upper guide rail sleeve 11. Further, the guide rail edge 112 is serrated, and the serrated edge 112, the inclined teeth 121 on the rack 12, and the serrated edge 131 of the rack button 13 cooperate with each other to convert the linear motion of the rack 12 into rotary motion.

[0045] Specifically, the rack button 13 has eight notches 132 on the side, and the rack button 13 only moves linearly in the upper guide rail sleeve 11. The end of the rack button 13 has a serrated edge 131, and the rack 12 has only four inclined teeth, which are in the same direction, and can convert the linear motion of the rack 12 into rotary motion. The guide rail structure in the upper guide rail sleeve 11 makes the notches 132 on the rack button 13 move linearly in the guide rail 111, and the four inclined teeth of the rack 12 slide up and down on the serrated edge 131.

[0046] In this embodiment, the lower guide rail sleeve 14 is provided with threads at both ends, and the upper end thread 144 is connected with the upper guide rail sleeve 11, and the lower end thread 145 is connected with the flange sleeve 25.

[0047] Further, the lower end of the lower guide rail sleeve 14 is fixedly connected with a fixed sleeve 143, which extends from the end of the flange sleeve 25 after the lower guide rail sleeve 14 is connected with the flange sleeve 25. The diameter of the fixed sleeve 143 is smaller than that of the lower guide rail sleeve 14, and the position where the fixed sleeve 143 and the guide rail sleeve 14 are connected forms a tapered surface, which abuts against one end of the spring 15. The spring provides resistance to the pressure of the rack button 13, so that the top rod 21 and the rack 12 can rebound. The top rod 21 and the rack 12 are in contact and cooperate with each other, and there is linear motion and rotary motion around the axis between them.

[0048] Further, the fixed sleeve 143 is provided with three through holes 142, and one movable limiting block 22 is installed at each through hole 142. The movable limiting block 22 is rotatably connected with the through hole position on the fixed sleeve 143 through the hinge 23.

[0049] In this embodiment, one end of the top rod 21 is tapered, and the other end is provided with a limiting ring 211, and the outer circumference of the limiting ring 211 is serrated. One side of the limiting ring 211 abuts against the spring 15, and the other side abuts against the lower end of the rack 12.

[0050] Further, as shown in FIG. 6, the top rod 21 is provided with a limiting ring 211, and the outer circumference of the limiting ring 211 is serrated. One side of the limiting ring 211 abuts against the spring 15, and the other side abuts against the lower end of the rack 12. Figure 7As shown, the movable limiting block 22 is provided with a top rod contact matching surface 222 and a rubber ring installation groove 223, the top rod contact matching surface 222 matches the tapered surface of the end of the top rod 21, and the rubber ring installation groove 223 is used to install the rubber ring 24. The movable limiting block 22 is also provided with a hinge installation hole 221 for installing the hinge 23, which can realize the rotary motion of the movable limiting block 22. The top rod contact matching surface 222 is provided as the main force surface when the top rod 21 is ejected, and the tapered limiting surface is formed between the installed movable limiting blocks 22. Through the tapered structure of the limiting surface, the axial linear motion of the top rod 21 can be converted into the rotary outward expansion motion of the movable limiting block 22, so as to realize the expansion of the limiting surface. The rubber ring installation groove 223 is provided, so that the rubber ring 24 can be installed in the rubber ring installation groove 223. When the top rod 21 is retracted, the rubber ring provides resistance to the expansion pressure of the movable limiting block, so that the movable limiting block can be retracted, and the limiting surface can be contracted. Figure 8 As shown.

[0051] Further, the inner wall surface of the lower guide rail sleeve 14 is provided with a sliding groove 141, which matches the serrated outer circumference of the limiting ring 211, so that the top rod only performs linear motion. Specifically, the serrated outer circumference of the limiting ring 211 is provided with eight notches, and the top rod 21 only performs linear motion in the lower guide rail sleeve 14. The lower end of the toothed rod 12 is a hollow structure, the limiting ring 211 is spaced apart from the upper end of the top rod 21 by a certain distance, so that the upper end of the top rod 21 is located in the lower end of the toothed rod 12, the limiting ring 211 abuts against the lower end of the toothed rod 12, and the top rod 21 is in contact with the toothed rod 12.

[0052] The working principle of the detachable and reusable assembly pre-hanging device provided by the embodiment is as follows:

[0053] In the initial state, the tooth tip of the toothed rod 12 is located inside the guide rail 111. The toothed rod 12 enters the compression stage along with the toothed rod button 13 when the toothed rod button 13 is pressed for the first time. When the toothed rod 12 slides to the end of the guide rail 111 of the upper guide rail sleeve 11, the toothed rod button 13 is released. One end of the spring 15 is in contact with the tapered surface of the lower guide rail sleeve 14, and the other end is in contact with the limiting ring on the top rod 21. Under the elastic force of the spring, the spring is compressed and rebounded. The elastic force is transmitted from the top rod 21 to the toothed rod 12, so that the toothed rod 12 is in contact with the guide rail edge 112 and rotates by a certain angle. The toothed rod 12 rebounds into the shallower guide rail edge 112, so that the rebound of the toothed rod 12 is not so long, and the toothed rod 12 is in the ejection state.

[0054] The toothed rod 12 is pressed for the second time. The tooth tip of the toothed rod 12 is rotated to the inside of the guide rail 111. When the toothed rod button 13 is released, the toothed rod 12 returns to the initial position and is in the retraction state.

[0055] When the rack 12 is in the ejected state, the push rod 21 is also in the ejected state. The conical structure of the push rod 21 will open the movable limiting block 22. The movable limiting block 22 rotates around the axis of the connecting hinge 23, and the rubber ring 24 expands under force, increasing the installation limiting surface. The flange sleeve 25 is threadedly connected to the lower guide rail sleeve 14. By rotating the flange sleeve 25, the gap between the flange sleeve 25 and the movable limiting block can be adjusted to realize the installation of the pre-hanging device.

[0056] Pressing the rack button 13 a second time will retract the push rod 21, causing the rubber ring 24 to spring back and the movable limit block 22 to compress, retracting synchronously with the push rod 21 into the lower guide sleeve 14. After adjusting the flange sleeve 25, the pre-attached tool can be removed.

[0057] Example 2

[0058] In a typical embodiment of the present invention, a method for using a detachable and reusable pre-attached assembly device is provided, such as... Figure 10 As shown, it includes:

[0059] The lower end of the lower guide sleeve 14 is passed through the mounting holes on the fixed sheet metal 3 and the component 4 to be assembled.

[0060] Press the rack button 13, and the rack 12 will push the push rod 21 out, using the conical surface of the push rod 21 to push the movable limit block 22 out from the lower guide sleeve 14;

[0061] Rotate flange sleeve 25, and use flange sleeve 25 and movable limit block 22 to clamp the fixed sheet metal 3 and the part 4 to be assembled;

[0062] After the assembly components are installed, press the rack button 13 again. Under the elastic force of the spring 15, the push rod 21 retracts, and at the same time, under the action of the leather ring 24, the movable limit block 22 rotates and retracts.

[0063] While the specific embodiments of the present invention have been described above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, this is not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that various modifications or variations that can be made by those skilled in the art without creative effort based on the technical solutions of the present invention are still within the scope of protection of the present invention.
