[0047] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 as shown, in which Figure 1 is a perspective view of the fitting component 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention; Figure 2 is an exploded view of the fitting component 100 according to Figure 1 the embodiment; Figure 3 is a perspective view of the fitting structure 110 in the Figure 1 embodiment; and Figure 4 is a perspective view of the socket 120 in the Figure 1 embodiment. The fitting component 100 includes a fitting structure 110 and a socket 120. The fitting structure 110 is detachably connected to the socket 120 along a direction p. As Figure 1 shown, when the fitting structure 110 is connected to the socket 120, the socket 120 allows the fitting structure 110 to pass through and be clamped against one end of the socket 120. In Figure 1 the embodiment, the fitting structure 110 and the socket 120 are respectively integrally formed structures.

[0048] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 as shown, in whichFigure 5 Shows a front view of the fitting structure 110 according to Figure 3 Figure 3 An embodiment. The fitting structure 110 includes a body 111, two hooks 112, and two limiting portions 113. The hooks 112 are respectively disposed at one end of the body 111 and extend from the body 111 in the direction p. The limiting portions 113 are respectively connected to two sides of the body 111 and extend in the direction p. The limiting portions 113 are generally L-shaped, and there is a space S between the limiting portions 113 and the body 111. The hooks 112 are used to latch onto the socket 120, and the limiting portions 113 are used to prevent the hooks 112 from detaching from the socket 120 due to external forces such as bending or shaking when the hooks 112 latch onto the socket 120. When the fitting structure 110 is connected to the socket 120, one end of the socket 120 is for the hooks 112 to pass through and latch, and the other end of the socket 120 is embedded in the space S.

[0049] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the socket 120 includes a groove body 121 and a plate body 122, and the plate body 122 is connected to the groove body 121. The plate body 122 includes an opening 1221, and the opening 1221 communicates with the groove body 121. When the fitting structure 110 is connected to the socket 120, the hooks 112 pass through the groove body 121 and the opening 1221 and latch onto the plate body 122, and the groove body 121 is embedded in the space S.

[0050] Thereby, through the latching of the hooks 112, the fitting structure 110 can stably and effectively connect to the socket 120 without using any fixing elements (such as screws, back glue, adhesive, or curing glue), and is also easy for users to disassemble and recycle, thus meeting the green design goal.

[0051] Refer to Figure 5 As shown, the hook 112 includes a latching portion 1121 and an elastic arm 1122, and the elastic arm 1122 connects the latching portion 1121 and the body 111. The latching portion 1121 has a latching length f, and the elastic arm 1122 has an elastic arm length La and an elastic arm thickness t. The ratio (f / La) of the latching length f to the elastic arm length La is between 0.05 and 0.30; the ratio of the elastic arm length La to the elastic arm thickness t is an elastic arm aspect ratio (La / t), and the elastic arm aspect ratio is between 3.00 and 8.00.

[0052] Specifically, refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, wherein Figure 6 Shows a front view of the fitting structure 110 according to Figure 1Schematic diagram of the assembly of the fitting structure 110 and the socket 120 in the embodiment. When assembling the fitting structure 110 to the socket 120, the engaging portion 1121 is aligned with the groove body 121 and inserted in the direction p. During the process of the hook 112 extending into the groove body 121, the engaging portion 1121 will abut against the inner wall of the groove body 121 to deform and bend the elastic arm 1122. When the engaging portion 1121 passes through the opening 1221, the elastic arm 1122 will return to its original position and the engaging portion 1121 will be clamped against the plate body 122.

[0053] Thereby, through the parameter design of the ratio of the engaging length f of the engaging portion 1121 to the elastic arm length La of the elastic arm 1122, the engaging strength of the hook 112 clamped against the plate body 122 can be enhanced.

[0054] In addition, through the parameter design of the aspect ratio of the elastic arm 1122 (the ratio of the elastic arm length La to the elastic arm thickness t), it is beneficial for the elastic arm 1122 to deform, and it can avoid the elastic arm 1122 from breaking when the inner wall of the groove body 121 abuts against the engaging portion 1121.

[0055] Furthermore, through the parameter design of both the engaging length f and the aspect ratio of the elastic arm, it is also possible to make the hook 112 have a good sense of assembly section when inserted into the groove body 121, which is beneficial for judging whether the assembly is in place.

[0056] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 7 as shown, Figure 7 which shows a cross-sectional schematic diagram of the fitting assembly 100 according to Figure 1 the embodiment. The socket 120 has a socket length Lh, and the socket length Lh is the sum of the length of the groove body 121 and the length of the plate body 122. The limiting portion 113 has a limiting portion length Lb, and the ratio (Lh / Lb) of the socket length Lh to the limiting portion length Lb is between 1.50 and 5.00.

[0057] Specifically, if the ratio of the socket length Lh to the limiting portion length Lb exceeds the above range, it will cause the fitting assembly 100 to fall off when dropped. Therefore, through the parameter design of the ratio of the socket length Lh to the limiting portion length Lb, the strength of the limiting portion 113 to prevent the hook 112 from falling off the plate body 122 can be further enhanced, and the combined strength of the fitting assembly 100 can be increased.

[0058] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 8 as shown, wherein Figure 8 which shows a cross-sectional schematic diagram of the fitting assembly 100 according to Figure 1Front view of the fitting component 100 of the embodiment. The hook 112 and a surface A of the body 111 form a slot 114. The socket 120 further includes a tongue plate 123, and the tongue plate 123 is connected to one end of the groove body 121 away from the plate body 122 to further prevent the fitting structure 110 from being bent. As Figure 8 shown, the slot 114 corresponds to the tongue plate 123. When the fitting structure 110 is connected to the socket 120, the tongue plate 123 is inserted into the slot 114. The tongue plate 123 has a tongue plate length Ls, and the ratio of the socket length Lh of the socket 120 to the tongue plate length Ls is between 0.15 and 2.00.

[0059] Specifically, if the ratio of the socket length Lh to the tongue plate length Ls exceeds the above range, it will be insufficient to prevent the fitting structure 110 from being bent in the vertical direction p. Therefore, through the parameter design of the ratio of the socket length Lh to the tongue plate length Ls, it is possible to further prevent the fitting structure 110 from being bent when connected to the socket 120.

[0060] Please refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 3 and Figure 9 shown, where Figure 9 illustrates a cross-sectional schematic view of the fitting structure 110 according to Figure 3 the embodiment. The fitting structure 110 further includes two pressing protrusions 115, which protrude from the body 111 respectively and are located on another surface B of the body 111 corresponding to the surface A. The pressing protrusion 115 includes a guiding surface C, and the guiding surface C is an inclined surface. The pressing protrusion 115 is used to press the body 111 of the fitting structure 110 and the groove body 121 of the socket 120, and the guiding surface C is used to guide the groove body 121 to fit tightly with the pressing protrusion 115. The pressing protrusion 115 has a protrusion thickness d, and the hook 112 has a hook width w. The ratio (d / w) of the protrusion thickness d to the hook width w is between 0.01 and 0.10.

[0061] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 10 shown, where Figure 10 illustrates a side view of the fitting component 100 according to Figure 1 the embodiment. The socket 120 further includes two anti-fooling parts 124, which are respectively connected to two sides of the groove body 121. When the fitting structure 110 is connected to the socket 120, the anti-fooling parts 124 are adjacent to the limiting part 113 and are arranged in a staggered manner with the limiting part 113. Thereby, through the staggered arrangement of the anti-fooling parts 124 and the limiting part 113, it is possible to prevent the fitting structure 110 and the socket 120 from being assembled in the wrong direction, and achieve the effect of directional anti-fooling.

[0062] As can be seen from the above embodiments, the fitting structure and the fitting component provided by the present invention have the following advantages:

[0063] First, through the engagement of the hooks of the fitting structure, in addition to tightly connecting the fitting structure and the socket without using any fixing elements (such as screws, back glue, adhesive or curing glue), it is also easy for users to disassemble and recycle, meeting the goal of green product design.

[0064] Second, through the parameter design of both the engagement length of the hooks of the fitting structure and the spring arm aspect ratio, the engagement strength between the fitting structure and the socket can be enhanced, and it is beneficial to the assembly of the fitting structure and the socket.

[0065] Third, through the limiting part of the fitting structure and the tongue plate of the socket, it can prevent the hooks from falling off the socket due to external force factors such as bending or shaking when the hooks are engaged with the socket.

[0066] Fourth, through the staggered arrangement of the limiting part of the fitting structure and the anti-fooling part of the socket, it can prevent the wrong assembly direction of the fitting structure and the socket, achieving the effect of directional anti-fooling.

[0067] Although the present invention has been disclosed as above in the form of embodiments, it is not intended to limit the present invention. Any person skilled in the art should be able to make various modifications and refinements without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the invention should be defined by the scope of the appended claims.
