Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of folders, and in particular to a carbon fiber folder. Background Art

[0002] A Chinese patent application with application number 202321558664.0 discloses a vertical tube iron folder, including a folder lower seat, a folding device upper seat and a folding seat locking structure; the folding device lower seat and one end of the folding device upper seat are hinged to each other through a folding device connecting shaft, and the folding seat locking structure is arranged at the other end of the folding device lower seat and the folding device upper seat, and the folding seat locking structure includes a folding device handle, a folding device safety buckle assembly and a folding device tightening block assembly, the folding device safety buckle assembly includes a sliding groove and a safety buckle arranged on the side of the other end of the folding device handle, and the folding device tightening block assembly includes a tightening shaft, a tightening block and a tightening screw arranged on the inner side of the locking seat.

[0003] In the above technical scheme, the tightening screw on the folder handle contacts the tightening shaft in the locking seat, thereby playing a tightening role, so that the folder handle is used to fix the folder lower seat and the folder upper seat. However, the fixing method in the above technical scheme is relatively cumbersome to operate, and it is necessary to operate the safety buckle to slide and open the folder handle at the same time. After the entire folder is used for a long time, dust or wear will inevitably accumulate on the safety buckle, resulting in relative jamming between the safety buckle and the sliding groove, making it difficult to unlock the folder handle at this time; when the folder lower seat and the folder upper seat are fixed, the shear stress generated by the deformation between the folder lower seat and the folder upper seat completely acts on the safety buckle. Once the safety buckle is deformed, the folder lower seat and the folder upper seat cannot be fixed, resulting in the above-mentioned inconvenience in actual use of the entire folder.

[0004] Therefore, achieving folding of the folder while ensuring ease of use and service life of the fixing parts is a technical problem that still needs to be solved in the prior art. Summary of the invention

[0005] The object of the present invention is to provide a carbon fiber folder which can realize folding of the folder while ensuring ease of use and service life of a fixing part.

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention discloses a carbon fiber folder, including a first folding seat and a second folding seat, a U-shaped semi-enclosed structure is formed on the first folding seat, the U-shaped semi-enclosed structure includes a bottom and side walls located on both sides of the bottom, a locking pin hole with an opening facing the same direction as the opening of the U-shaped semi-enclosed structure is provided between the two side walls, one end of the second folding seat is located in the U-shaped semi-enclosed structure and the end of the second folding seat is pivotally connected to the two side walls of the U-shaped semi-enclosed structure of the first folding seat, the second folding seat can only move around the pivot toward the opening direction of the U-shaped semi-enclosed structure, a locking pin that can be inserted into the locking pin hole is provided on the second folding seat, and when the locking pin is inserted into the locking pin hole, the second folding seat cannot move around the pivot toward the opening direction of the U-shaped semi-enclosed structure.

[0007] When the folder needs to be transformed from a flat state to a folded state, the locking pin located in the second folding seat is moved in a direction away from the first folding seat, thereby separating the locking pin from the locking pin hole in the first folding seat, thereby unlocking the first folding seat and the second folding seat. At this time, the second folding seat and the first folding seat can be rotated to fold them.

[0008] The present invention adopts the matching mode of the locking pin and the locking pin hole and realizes the fixing or unlocking of the second folding seat and the first folding seat by controlling the sliding of the locking pin. Compared with the cumbersome steps of the traditional folder which requires the simultaneous operation of the safety buckle and the folder handle, the operation process of the folder is simplified, making the user's operation simple and quick, while avoiding the use of fasteners, thereby improving the overall stability and service life of the folder. The present invention has the advantages of realizing the folding of the folder while ensuring the ease of use and service life of the fixing parts.

[0009] Preferably, a sliding groove is provided in the second folding seat for the locking pin to slide away from the bottom of the U-shaped semi-enclosed structure, and a retracted step surface is provided in the middle section of the locking pin located in the second folding seat, and an elastic member is provided between the step surface and the bottom of the sliding groove.

[0010] The elastic force of the elastic member causes the lock pin head to be located in the lock pin hole, thereby ensuring that the second folding seat and the first folding seat are locked when the folder is laid flat.

[0011] The elastic member is any existing member that can realize the reciprocating movement of the locking pin along its own axial direction through elastic force, such as a thrust spring.

[0012] Preferably, the bottom of the U-shaped semi-enclosed structure is a horizontal structure parallel to the axial direction of the second folding seat, the locking pin hole is arranged in the horizontal structure, the axial direction of the locking pin hole is perpendicular to the horizontal structure of the bottom of the U-shaped semi-enclosed structure, and the locking pin is opposite to the locking pin hole opening.

[0013] By limiting the opening direction of the locking pin hole set at the bottom of the U-shaped semi-enclosed structure and the axial position of the pin shaft, the locking pin can only slide back and forth in a direction perpendicular to the bottom of the U-shaped semi-enclosed structure, so that the movement trajectory of the locking pin intersects the folding trajectory of the first folding seat and the second folding seat, thereby ensuring the fixing effect of the first folding seat and the second folding seat.

[0014] Preferably, two side walls of the U-shaped semi-enclosed structure are provided with a convex plate at one end away from the axis of the first folding seat, and the second folding seat located in the U-shaped semi-enclosed structure is provided with a convex portion located between the two side convex plates, the convex portion is matched with the shape of the convex plates, and a pivot passing through the convex portion is provided between the two side convex plates.

[0015] By arranging the pivot on the side away from the axis of the first folding seat and the second folding seat and adjusting the rotation radius of the first folding seat and the second folding seat, it is prevented that when the first folding seat and the second folding seat are folded, the first folding seat and the second folding seat are prevented from being stuck due to their own shapes hindering the movement trajectory.

[0016] Preferably, the end surfaces of the second folding seat and the U-shaped semi-enclosed structure that are close to each other are both inclined surfaces, and the inclined surface of the second folding seat gradually inclines away from the first folding seat from the side close to the pivot to the side close to the bottom of the U-shaped semi-enclosed structure.

[0017] By setting the end face of the U-shaped semi-enclosed structure as an inclined surface, the bottom of the U-shaped semi-enclosed structure has a larger thickness while ensuring that the first folding seat has the same thickness and provides a support surface of the same area for the second folding seat, so that the first folding seat and the second folding seat have better resistance to back bending when fixed.

[0018] Preferably, the U-shaped semi-enclosed structure is provided with a rubber piece which is perpendicular to the inclined surface of the second folding seat.

[0019] The rubber piece squeezes the inclined surface of the second folding seat, thereby pressing the second folding seat tightly, thereby preventing the assembly gap between the second folding seat and the first folding seat from causing looseness between the two.

[0020] The rubber part may be any existing part that is used to fill in the gap and has a certain elasticity, such as a rubber plug or a rubber pad.

[0021] Preferably, a lock sleeve is provided in the lock pin hole, and the lock sleeve is used to be sleeved on the lock pin head, thereby further increasing the friction force when the lock pin head is located in the lock pin hole through the limiting sleeve.

[0022] Preferably, a lever mechanism is further provided at one end of the second folding seat away from the first folding seat, the lever mechanism comprising a rotating support and a rocker arm arranged on the second folding seat, the rocker arm comprising a horizontal portion parallel to the axis direction of the first folding seat and an inclined portion arranged at one end of the horizontal portion away from the first folding seat, one end of the horizontal portion is hinged to the tail of the locking pin, the boundary between the horizontal portion and the inclined portion is placed on the rotating support, and the inclined portion is inclined in a direction away from the axis direction of the first folding seat.

[0023] The rocker arm on one side of the rotating support and the locking pin is the resistance arm, and the rocker arm on the side of the rotating support away from the locking pin is the power arm. A lever mechanism is formed with the rotating support as a fulcrum, thereby facilitating the user to operate the locking pin for unlocking and locking.

[0024] Preferably, an end of the rotating support in contact with the rocker arm is provided with an arc-shaped chamfer.

[0025] The rocker arm is placed on the arc-shaped chamfer of the rotating support. Compared with the method of directly hingedly connecting the rotating support and the rocker arm, the arc-shaped chamfer can compensate for the displacement of the rocker arm at the rotating support when it is pressed down, thereby preventing it from getting stuck.

[0026] Preferably, a connecting tube is provided at one end of the second folding seat which is relatively far away from the first folding seat, an inner tube is coaxially arranged inside the connecting tube, an annular protrusion for axially limiting the inner tube is provided on the outer wall of the inner tube, an annular groove matching the protrusion is provided at the pipe mouth of the connecting tube, a through hole is provided to communicate with the inner tube and the connecting tube, and a thread is provided on the inner wall of the through hole of the inner tube.

[0027] Due to the physical properties of the carbon fiber material itself, the second folding seat and the first folding seat cannot be processed with threads, and cannot be adapted for assembly with pipe fittings that require threads for fastening and assembly. In addition, a threaded portion is added to the connecting pipe through the inner tube to expand the adaptation range of the folder, and then the assembly position of the sleeve is axially limited to ensure the assembly accuracy of the sleeve.

[0028] The present invention can simplify the operation process of the folder, and the operation is simple and quick, while avoiding the use of fasteners, thereby increasing the overall service life of the folder, and has the advantages of achieving folding of the folder while ensuring the ease of use and service life of the fixing parts.
