Description

A self-unlocking high-load-bearing compact hinge structure device Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of component rotation separation design, and in particular to a high-load-bearing compact hinge structure device that can be self-unlocked. Background Art

[0002] Separating components by relative rotational motion is a common separation method in engineering. According to the separation requirements, the components are usually required to rotate to a certain angle before separation. With the continuous development of science and technology, new separation requirements continue to emerge. For example, there is a very large back pressure during underwater separation. In order to achieve rapid separation, the separation component must obtain a higher initial rotation speed, that is, a higher initial dynamic load needs to be applied to the separation component. This requires that the hinges at the connection between the components have a higher load-bearing capacity and can withstand a higher initial dynamic load, so that the separation component can produce rotational motion.

[0003] In engineering practice, it is sometimes required that the separation of components should avoid affecting the posture of the rear body, which requires that no additional load should be generated between the components and the rear body when they are separated, that is, the "zero unlocking force" requirement. In addition, the installation space is often small, which also brings great challenges to the design of the separation mechanism. Summary of the invention

[0030] An embodiment of the present invention provides a self-unlocking, high-load-bearing, compact hinge structure device for connecting rotating separation components. As shown in FIGS. 1 to 4 , the device includes: an upper hinge 1 and a lower hinge 2 .

[0031] The upper hinge 1 can be installed on one of the rotary separation components, and the lower hinge 2 can be installed on the other rotary separation component. The upper hinge 1 and the lower hinge 2 are connected to each other through a hinge hook and a hinge shaft buckle.

[0034] As shown in Figure 3, the lower hinge 2 includes a lower hinge shaft 21 and at least two lower hinge hooks 22. At least two lower hinge hooks 22 are arranged on the lower hinge shaft 21. There is a lower hinge gap 23 between two adjacent lower hinge hooks 22. The lower hinge gap 23 can accommodate the upper hinge hook 12. The upper hinge hook 12 can be buckled to the lower hinge shaft 21 through the lower hinge gap 23 and can cooperate with the lower hinge shaft 21 to rotate with each other. One end of the lower hinge hook 22 is used to connect the rotating separation component.

[0035] In some embodiments, the number of lower hinge hooks 22 is greater than the number of upper hinge hooks 12 .

[0036] In some embodiments, for two or more upper hinge hooks 12 , an upper hinge gap 14 is provided between two adjacent upper hinge hooks 12 .

[0037] In some embodiments, two lower hinge hooks 22 are disposed at two ends of the lower hinge shaft 21 .

[0038] In some embodiments, the upper hinge hook 12 includes an upper hinge hook seat body 121 and an upper hinge hook body 122 . The upper hinge hook seat body 121 is connected to the upper hinge shaft 11 , and the upper hinge hook body 122 can rotate with the lower hinge shaft 21 .

[0039] The lower hinge hook 22 includes a lower hinge hook seat body 221 and a lower hinge hook body 222 . The lower hinge hook seat body 221 is connected to the lower hinge shaft 21 , and the lower hinge hook body 222 can rotate with the upper hinge shaft 11 .

[0040] In some embodiments, the upper hinge shaft 11 and the lower hinge shaft 21 are semi-cylindrical.

[0041] In some embodiments, the hook surfaces of the upper hinge hook body 122 and the lower hinge hook body 222 are semi-cylindrical concave surfaces, which match the lower hinge shaft 21 and the upper hinge shaft 11 .

[0042] In some embodiments, the number of upper hinge gaps 14 corresponds to the number of lower hinge hooks 22 .

[0043] In some embodiments, the number of lower hinge gaps 23 corresponds to that of upper hinge hooks 12 .

[0044] As shown in Figures 1 to 4, the present invention provides a self-unlocking high-load compact hinge, comprising an upper hinge 1 and a lower hinge 2, see Figure 1. The upper hinge 1 and the lower hinge 2 are snap-fitted with each other.

[0045] Both the upper hinge and the lower hinge adopt a structural form in which multiple hinge hooks and hinge shafts are alternately combined. The upper hinge includes 2 hinge hooks and 3 hinge shafts, as shown in Figure 2. The lower hinge includes 3 hinge hooks and 2 hinge shafts, as shown in Figure 3. The upper hinge and the lower hinge are installed in coordination by the hinge hooks and the hinge shafts snapping together, as shown in Figure 1. During installation, the upper hinge and the lower hinge can be connected to the separated components by multiple small-sized screws, and the upper hinge and the lower hinge are directly snapped together, so that the hinge connection structure is simple and compact. When bearing, the load can be distributed to each hinge hook and hinge shaft, thereby achieving an overall high load-bearing capacity; at the same time, each hinge hook and hinge shaft has a small span and good rigidity, thereby achieving a high load-bearing capacity of a single hook and a single shaft.

[0046] In addition, the hinge hook and hinge shaft of the upper hinge and the lower hinge adopt the structural form of "half hook" and "half shaft". Before separation and release, the upper hinge and the lower hinge are connected by buckle and cannot be separated, and can only rotate relative to each other. When the upper hinge and the lower hinge are rotated relative to each other to the specified separation angle, the hinge hook is separated from the hinge shaft, and the hinge realizes "zero unlocking force" self-unlocking, as shown in Figure 4.

[0047] The working principle of the self-unlocking high-load compact hinge of the present invention is:

[0048] The self-unlocking high-load compact hinge is installed on the separation surface of the separation component. The upper hinge is installed on one of the separation components by screws, and the lower hinge is installed on the other separation component by screws. The upper hinge and the lower hinge are directly snap-fitted. The connection method is simple and compact, which can meet the needs of small installation space. Before separation and release, the upper hinge and the lower hinge are snap-fitted and cannot be separated, and can only rotate relative to each other. Since both the upper hinge and the lower hinge adopt a structural form of alternating combination of multiple hinge hooks and hinge shafts, when bearing, the load can be distributed to each hinge hook and hinge shaft, thereby achieving an overall high load-bearing capacity. At the same time, each hinge hook and hinge shaft has a small span and good rigidity, thereby achieving a high load-bearing capacity of a single hook and a single shaft.

[0049] When the components are separated, the rotation of the components drives the upper hinge and the lower hinge to rotate relative to each other. Since the hinge hooks and hinge shafts of the upper hinge and the lower hinge are in the form of "half hook" and "half shaft", when the upper hinge and the lower hinge rotate relative to each other to the separation angle, the hinge shaft disengages from the hinge hook, and the hinge achieves "zero unlocking force" self-unlocking.

[0050] The technical solutions described in the embodiments of the present application can be combined arbitrarily without conflict.

[0051] The above is only a specific implementation of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art who is familiar with the present technical field can easily think of changes or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed in the present application, which should be included in the protection scope of the present application. Therefore, the protection scope of the present application should be based on the protection scope of the claims.
