Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of vehicle component technology, and more particularly to a hook and a vehicle. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, most vehicles have hidden hooks installed inside the vehicle (such as on the side of the passenger seat, the surface of the B-pillar, the inner wall of the trunk, and the inner side of the tailgate). Users can quickly open and use these hooks when they need to hang items, and they can be stored away when not in use, without taking up valuable interior space.
[0003] However, in order to reduce the space occupied in the vehicle interior, the mounting structure of the hook has a limited capacity, which restricts the size of the hook and the suspension position, making it difficult to meet the needs of users to hang larger items. Summary of the Invention
[0004] This application provides a hook and a vehicle, which aims to improve the problem of limited suspension positions on the hook.
[0005] This application provides a hook, including a mounting housing, a first locking member, a second locking member, and a folding hook. The first locking member is disposed on the mounting housing. A first end of the folding hook is rotatably connected to the mounting housing, and a second end of the folding hook is rotatably connected to the second locking member. The hook has a first working state and a folded state. In the folded state, the first end of the second locking member is locked to the first locking member, and the folding hook is located on the side close to the first locking member. In the first working state, the first end of the second locking member rotates to separate from the first locking member, and the folding hook rotates to the side away from the first locking member and provides a hooking position.
[0006] In this embodiment, when the hook is in the folded state, the folded hook and the second locking member are relatively small after folding, and do not occupy too much space in the vehicle. In the first working state, items can be hung on the unfolded folded hook, and the unfolded folded hook has more hanging positions, which can meet the user's hanging needs for more items.
[0007] Optionally, the hook also has a second working state in which the folding hook rotates to a side away from the first locking member, and the first end of the second locking member rotates to lock with the first locking member to lock the item at the hook position.
[0008] The locking mechanism formed by the second locking element and the first locking element ensures that the suspended items cannot fall off the folding hook, effectively preventing items from falling off due to vehicle bumps, human touch, or other disturbances.
[0009] Optionally, the first locking member includes a first latching member, and the second locking member includes a second latching member, wherein the first latching member can engage with the second latching member. Through the engagement of the first and second latching members, the second locking member will not disengage from the first locking member, thereby locking the folding hook and preventing items from falling out.
[0010] Optionally, the first locking member further includes a first body; the first body is connected to the mounting housing, and the first snap-fit member includes a first plate, a second plate, and a third plate, the first plate being connected between the first body and the second plate, and the end of the second plate away from the first plate being connected to the third plate; The first main body, the first plate, the second plate, and the third plate are arranged to form a hook groove, and the second snap-fit member can enter the hook groove and snap-fit with the first snap-fit member.
[0011] By sequentially connecting the first, second, and third plates, a hook-shaped structure is formed, which can engage with the second snap-fit component. Multi-directional limiting within the hook groove constrains the displacement of the second snap-fit component, effectively preventing engagement failure due to misalignment of the second snap-fit component.
[0012] Optionally, the third plate has a first guide surface at the end away from the second plate. The first guide surface can guide the second snap-fit component, and the first guide surface helps the second snap-fit component to smoothly enter the hook groove.
[0013] Optionally, the second locking member further includes a second body, which is rotatably connected to the folding hook. The second locking member has a second guide surface on the side away from the second body. The second guide surface can guide the first locking member and facilitates the smooth entry of the second locking member into the hook groove.
[0014] Optionally, the first locking member is rotatably connected to the mounting housing. When the first locking member rotates about the first axis, the second locking member can disengage from the first locking member, and the hook can switch from the folded state to the first working state.
[0015] By rotating the first locking member, its relative position to the second locking member can be changed, causing the first and second locking members, which were originally in a locked engagement state, to separate. After the folding hook is released from its constraint, it can switch from the folded state to the first working state, making it convenient to hang items.
[0016] Optionally, the hook further includes an elastic element disposed between the first locking member and the mounting housing. When the first locking member rotates in a first rotation direction, the second locking member disengages from the first locking member, and the first locking member presses against the elastic element. The elastic force generated by the elastic element can push the first locking element to rotate in the second rotation direction, which is opposite to the second rotation direction.
[0017] Under the elastic force of the elastic element, the first locking element is pushed to rotate in the opposite direction until it returns to its initial locked position. The user only needs to apply a single external force to drive the first locking element, which unlocks the first locking element from the second locking element. After unlocking, no further operation is required, as the elastic element will automatically push the first locking element back to its initial position.
[0018] Optionally, the hook further includes an opening member, which is rotatably connected to the mounting housing about a second axis. The opening member is disposed between the folding hook and the first locking member. When the second locking member disengages from the first locking member, the opening member and the folding hook can rotate about the second axis.
[0019] By rotating the opening element, a pushing force can be applied to the folding hook. Under the action of the pushing force of the opening element, the folding hook rotates synchronously with the opening element around the second axis toward the outside of the mounting housing, so that the hook can switch from the folded state to the first working state and complete the suspension preparation.
[0020] Optionally, the hook further includes an unlocking component, with a first end of the unlocking component close to the first locking component and a second end of the unlocking component close to the opening component; pressing the end face of the second end of the unlocking component can cause the unlocking component to rotate sequentially between the first locking component and the opening component.
[0021] By pressing the end face, the first locking part and the opening part rotate in sequence to avoid structural interference, allowing the folding hook to rotate smoothly in an unrestrained state and reducing jamming.
[0022] Optionally, the opening member is provided with a protrusion, the distance between the first end of the unlocking member and the first locking member is less than the distance between the second end of the unlocking member and the protrusion, the first end of the unlocking member can push the first locking member to rotate, and the second end of the unlocking member can push the protrusion to rotate.
[0023] By using a differentiated spacing design, the unlocking component pushes the first locking component before pushing the opening component, ensuring that the opening component will only drive the folding hook to rotate after the first and second locking components are completely separated.
[0024] Optionally, the unlocking component includes an unlocking body and a push plate. The first end of the unlocking body can abut against the first locking component, and the push plate is connected to the second end of the unlocking body. The push plate can abut against the opening component.
[0025] The unlocking mechanism immediately drives the first locking element to rotate around the first axis, quickly initiating the unlocking action between the first and second locking elements. The push plate and the protrusion have a certain distance between them. When the push plate moves a certain distance until it abuts against the protrusion, it begins to push the opening element to rotate. The push plate can thus drive the opening element to rotate.
[0026] Optionally, the opening component includes a mounting base, a first rotating shaft, and a limiting plate. The mounting base is provided with a receiving groove, and the first end of the folding hook is disposed in the receiving groove. The first rotating shaft passes through the folding hook and the mounting base, and the central axis of the first rotating shaft is the second axis. The limiting plate is installed on the mounting base and can abut against the second end of the folding hook. The receiving groove and the limiting plate can restrict the position and rotation range of the folding hook in both directions.
[0027] Optionally, the folding hook includes a first link and a second link, the first link being rotatably connected to the mounting housing, and the first end of the second link being slidably connected to the first link, so that the hook can switch between the first working state and the folded state; the second end of the second link is rotatably connected to the second locking member.
[0028] By sliding the first end of the second link relative to the first link, the position of the first end of the second link relative to the first link can be changed, so that the hook can switch between the folded state and the first working state.
[0029] Optionally, the folding hook further includes a second rotating shaft and a third rotating shaft. The second rotating shaft passes through the first end of the second connecting rod, and the first connecting rod is provided with a sliding groove, allowing the second rotating shaft to move along the sliding groove. The third rotating shaft passes through the second end of the second connecting rod and the second locking member.
[0030] The slide groove guides the movement of the second link. The third rotating shaft allows the second locking member to rotate relative to the second link, enabling it to be pulled out of or into the mounting housing.
[0031] Optionally, the outer peripheral surface of the second rotating shaft is provided with a first locking block, the first connecting rod is provided with at least one first locking groove, all the first locking grooves are in communication with the slide groove, and the first locking block can be locked into the first locking groove to limit the position of the second rotating shaft in the slide groove.
[0032] By setting multiple first locking slots, the second rotating shaft can be limited to different sliding positions, enabling the folding hook to unfold in multiple positions.
[0033] Optionally, the outer peripheral surface of the third rotating shaft is provided with a second locking block, the second locking member is provided with a connecting hole and a second locking groove, the second locking groove communicates with the connecting hole, the third rotating shaft passes through the connecting hole, and the second locking block can be locked into the second locking groove.
[0034] The engagement between the second locking block and the second locking slot allows the third rotating shaft to be fixed relative to the second locking member, facilitating the movement of the second locking member by the folding hook.
[0035] Optionally, the folding hook includes a first folding plate, a second folding plate, and a third folding plate. A first end of the first folding plate is rotatably connected to the mounting housing, a second end of the first folding plate is rotatably connected to the first end of the second folding plate, a second end of the second folding plate is rotatably connected to the first end of the third folding plate, and a second end of the third folding plate is rotatably connected to the second locking member. By rotating the three folding plates around their respective joints, the folding hook can be folded and unfolded.
[0036] Optionally, the first locking member is disposed inside the mounting housing; in the folded state, the folding hook and the second locking member are accommodated inside the mounting housing; in the first working state, the folding hook can extend out of the mounting housing.
[0037] This application also provides a vehicle including a hook as described in any of the preceding claims.
[0038] In this embodiment, the vehicle uses a folding hook that can be pulled out and used to hang items when in use, and can be stored away when not in use, without taking up interior space. Attached Figure Description

[0041] To make the technical problems, technical solutions, and beneficial effects solved by this application clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of this application.
[0042] like Figures 1 to 8As shown in the embodiment of this application, a hook 100 includes a mounting housing 1, a first locking member 2, a second locking member 3, and a folding hook 4. The first locking member 2 is disposed on the mounting housing 1. The first end of the folding hook 4 is rotatably connected to the mounting housing 1, and the second end of the folding hook 4 is rotatably connected to the second locking member 3. The hook 100 has a first working state and a folded state. In the folded state, the first end of the second locking member 3 is locked to the first locking member 2, and the folding hook 4 is positioned on the side close to the first locking member 2. In the first working state, the first end of the second locking member 3 rotates to separate from the first locking member 2, and the folding hook 4 rotates to the side away from the first locking member 2 and provides a hooking position.
[0043] In the folded state, the second locking member 3 and the folding hook 4 rotate toward the first locking member 2, allowing the first end of the second locking member 3 to lock with the first locking member 2. At this time, the folding hook 4 is folded and stored, forming a first angle between the second locking member 3 and the folding hook 4, and the folding hook 4 does not provide a hooking position. The locking engagement between the second locking member 3 and the first locking member 2 ensures the stability of the stored state.
[0044] When the second locking member 3 is released from the lock of the first locking member 2, the folding hook 4 rotates away from the first locking member 2 relative to the mounting housing 1. At the same time, the second locking member 3 rotates away from the first locking member 2 relative to the folding hook 4. The two move in concert. As the folding hook 4 unfolds, a second angle is gradually formed between the second locking member 3 and the folding hook 4. The second locking member 3 is no longer constrained by the first locking member 2. The hanging area of the folding hook 4 is completely open and can be used to hang items.
[0045] In this embodiment, the hook 100 has a first working state and a folded state. In the folded state, the folded hook 4 has a compact structure, making it easy to store and hide, occupying less space, and requiring no large storage space. When the hook 100 needs to be used, rotating the folded hook 4 causes the connected second locking member 3 to rotate as well, and the second locking member 3 can rotate relative to the folded hook 4, thereby allowing the hook 100 to switch to the first working state. In the first working state, the effective hanging area of the folded hook 4 is larger, providing more hanging positions and meeting the hanging needs of items of different sizes and quantities, effectively improving the problem of limited hanging positions of existing hooks.
[0046] In the folded state, the first angle between the second locking member 3 and the folding hook 4 is close to 90°. At this time, the folding hook 4 is close to the mounting housing 1 or other adjacent components, and no effective area for hanging items is formed. In the first working state, the first angle between the second locking member 3 and the folding hook 4 is close to 180°. In this case, the unfolded folding hook and the second locking member are approximately collinear, and the hanging area is fully exposed, providing ample space for hanging items.
[0047] In another embodiment, such as Figure 1 , Figure 3 As shown, the hook 100 includes a mounting housing 1, a first locking member 2, a second locking member 3, and a folding hook 4. The first locking member 2 is disposed inside the mounting housing 1. The first end of the folding hook 4 is rotatably connected to the mounting housing 1, and the second end of the folding hook 4 is rotatably connected to the second locking member 3. In this example, the cavity inside the mounting housing 1 has an opening. The first locking member 2 is disposed on the side of the mounting housing 1 away from the opening, and the folding hook 4 is disposed on the side of the mounting housing 1 close to the opening, facilitating the rotation of the folding hook 4 and allowing it to extend out of the mounting housing 1 from the opening.
[0048] The lower end of the folding hook 4 is rotatably connected to the mounting housing 1, and the upper end of the folding hook 4 is rotatably connected to the second locking member 3. There is sufficient clearance between the second locking member 3 and the top of the mounting housing 1 so that the second locking member 3 will not interfere with the mounting housing 1 when the folding hook 4 rotates.
[0049] Mounting housing 1 serves as the mounting reference. The mounting housing 1 has an internal cavity. When the hook 100 is not in use, it can be rotated around the pivot point where the folding hook 4 is rotatably connected to the mounting housing 1. This allows the folding hook 4 and the second locking member 3 to be completely stored within the cavity of the mounting housing 1, without occupying interior space. At this time, the hook 100 is in a folded state. Figure 1 The diagram shows the hook 100 in a folded state. In the folded state, the second locking member 3 engages with the first locking member 2, preventing the folded hook 4 from falling out of the mounting housing 1 when not in use.
[0050] When hook 100 is needed, rotating folding hook 4 will cause the second locking member 3 connected to it to rotate outward of mounting housing 1. Folding hook 4 can be smoothly switched to unfolded state. At this time, items can be hung on folding hook 4 in unfolded state. In the first working state, folding hook 4 has multiple hanging positions, which can meet the user's hanging needs for more items.
[0051] In one embodiment, the hook 100 also has a second working state in which the folding hook 4 rotates to the side away from the first locking member 2, and the first end of the second locking member 3 rotates to lock with the first locking member 2 to lock the item at the hook position.
[0052] When hook 100 switches from the first working state to the second working state, the second locking member 3 can be rotated; after the second locking member 3 and the first locking member 2 re-establish a locking engagement, the second locking member 3 is restricted from movement and cannot disengage outwards, such as... Figure 2 The diagram shows the second locking element 3 locked after an item is suspended. This locking action indirectly locks the folding hook 4, preventing it from switching states at will and ensuring that the suspended item cannot fall off the folding hook 4, effectively preventing items from falling off due to vehicle bumps, human contact, or other disturbances.
[0053] In another embodiment, the second locking member 3 can rotate to retract back into the mounting housing 1; after the second locking member 3 and the first locking member 2 inside the mounting housing 1 re-establish a locking engagement, the second locking member 3 is confined within the mounting housing 1 and cannot disengage outwards, such as... Figure 2 The diagram shows the second locking element 3 locked after an item is suspended. This locking action indirectly locks the folding hook 4, preventing it from switching states at will and ensuring that the suspended item cannot fall off the folding hook 4, effectively preventing items from falling off due to vehicle bumps, human contact, or other disturbances.
[0054] like Figure 7 The diagram shows the hook 100 in its first operating state. The second locking member 3 is located outside the mounting housing 1, and items can be hung on the folding hook 4. In the second operating state, as shown... Figure 8 The diagram shows the hook 100 in its second working state. The second locking member 3 is located inside the mounting housing 1 and is locked to the first locking member 2, preventing items from falling off the folding hook 4. The folding hook 4 has different postures in the two states.
[0055] In one embodiment, such as Figure 3 As shown, the first locking member 2 includes a first latching member 22, and the second locking member 3 includes a second latching member 32. The first latching member 22 can engage with the second latching member 32. Through the engagement of the first latching member 22 and the second latching member 32, the second locking member 3 will not disengage from the first locking member 2, thereby locking the folding hook 4. In the folded state, locking the folding hook 4 keeps it stable. In the second working state, locking the folding hook 4 prevents items from falling off.
[0056] When the first snap-fit component 22 and the second snap-fit component 32 are snapped together, the "hook-to-hook hook-to-hook" method can be used, which uses the hook-like structure of the two hooks to bite in opposite directions to form a bidirectional limit; the other method is to use the "boss-to-boss abutting" method, which uses the end faces or sides of the two bosses to directly contact each other and restricts relative displacement by means of structural interference. Both methods can achieve a stable snap-fit effect.
[0057] When the "hook and hook engage with each other" method is adopted, the first snap-fit part 22 is the first hook and the second snap-fit part 32 is the second hook. The first hook and the second hook can engage with each other, thereby preventing the second locking part 3 from disengaging from the mounting housing 1.
[0058] In the method of "protrusions abutting against each other", the first locking member 22 is the first protrusion and the second locking member 32 is the second protrusion. The first protrusion has a first plane and the second protrusion has a second plane. Both the first plane and the second plane are flat surfaces and extend along the vertical direction of the vehicle. When the first plane and the second plane abut against each other, a stable structural limit can be formed, making it difficult for the first locking member 22 and the second locking member 32 to move relative to each other, thus ensuring a stable locking state.
[0059] In one embodiment, such as Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the first locking member 2 also includes a first body 21, which is connected to the mounting housing 1, and a first snap-fit member 22 is connected to the first body 21. The first body 21 serves as a connecting carrier, enabling the first locking member 2 to be installed on the mounting housing 1.
[0060] As an example, the first locking member 2 includes a first body 21 and a first snap-fit member 22. The first body 21 is connected to the mounting housing 1, and the first snap-fit member 22 is disposed on the upper part of the first body 21. When the second locking member 3 enters the mounting housing 1 from the gap at the top of the mounting housing 1, it facilitates the snap-fit engagement of the second snap-fit member 32 with the first snap-fit member 22.
[0061] In one embodiment, such as Figure 4 As shown, the first snap-fit component 22 includes a first plate 221, a second plate 222 and a third plate 223. The first plate 221 is connected between the first body 21 and the second plate 222. The end of the second plate 222 away from the first plate 221 is connected to the third plate 223. The first body 21, the first plate 221, the second plate 222 and the third plate 223 surround to form a hook groove 224. The second snap-fit component 32 can enter the hook groove 224 and snap-fit with the first snap-fit component 22.
[0062] The first plate 221, the second plate 222, and the third plate 223 are connected in sequence to form a hook-shaped structure, which can be engaged with the second snap-fit member 32. The first main body 21, the first plate 221, the second plate 222, and the third plate 223 enclose a hook groove 224. The multi-directional limiting of the inner wall of the hook groove 224 restricts the displacement of the second snap-fit member 32, effectively avoiding the problem of the two snap-fit members not being able to accurately abut or the snap-fit failing due to the offset of the second snap-fit member 32.
[0063] As an example, the first latching member 22 includes a first plate 221, a second plate 222, and a third plate 223. The second plate 222 is connected between the first plate 221 and the third plate 223, and extends vertically. The first plate 221 is connected to the lower end of the second plate 222, and the third plate 223 is connected to the upper end of the second plate 222. The first plate 221, the second plate 222, and the third plate 223 are connected in sequence to form a U-shaped hook structure. The end of the first plate 221 away from the second plate 222 is connected to the first body 21. The first latching member 22 is located on the side of the first body 21 near the folding hook 4, and is located on the upper part of the first body 21, and the first plate 221 is not higher than the first body 21.
[0064] In this example, the first latching member 22 and the second latching member 32 can be latched together by "hooking each other". The first latching member 22 is the first hook, and the first plate 221, the second plate 222 and the third plate 223 are connected in sequence to form the first hook. The second latching member 32 is the second hook. The first hook can hook the second hook to form a latching connection, thereby realizing the interlocking of the first locking member 2 and the second locking member 3.
[0065] The second snap-fit component 32 has an L-shaped snap-fit structure, which can snap-fit with the first snap-fit component 22.
[0066] In one embodiment, such as Figure 7 As shown, the third plate 223 has a first guide surface 2231 at the end away from the second plate 222. The first guide surface 2231 can guide the second snap-fit member 32. When the second snap-fit member 32 abuts against the third plate 223, the first guide surface 2231 guides and directs the second snap-fit member 32, which helps the second snap-fit member 32 to smoothly enter the hook groove 224.
[0067] As an example, the third plate 223 has a first guide surface 2231 at the end away from the second plate 222. The first guide surface 2231 is an arc-shaped surface or an inclined surface. The inclined surface is inclined away from the folding hook 4, and the inclined surface cannot coincide with the vertical direction. When the second latching member 32 abuts against the third plate 223, the inclined or arc-shaped surface supports the second latching member 32, which can convert the abutting force of the second latching member 32 into a sliding force along the guide direction, guiding it to slide accurately and smoothly into the hook groove 224. This reduces operating resistance and reduces wear on the second latching member 32 caused by hard impact, ensuring the stability of the locking fit.
[0068] In one embodiment, such as Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the second locking member 3 also includes a second body 31, which is rotatably connected to the folding hook 4, and a second snap-fit member 32 is connected to the second body 31. The second body 31 serves as a connecting carrier, enabling the second locking member 3 to be installed on the folding hook 4.
[0069] As an example, the second locking member 3 includes a second body 31 and a second latching member 32. The first end of the second body 31 is rotatably connected to the folding hook 4, and the second end of the second body 31 is connected to the second latching member 32. By rotating the second body 31, the second latching member 32 on the second body 31 can engage with the first latching member 22.
[0070] In one embodiment, such as Figure 4 As shown, a second guide surface 321 is provided on the side of the second latching member 32 away from the second main body 31. The second guide surface 321 can guide the first latching member 22. When the second latching member 32 abuts against the third plate 223, the second guide surface 321 can guide and direct the first latching member 22, which helps the second latching member 32 to smoothly enter the hook groove 224.
[0071] As an example, the second latching member 32 has a second guide surface 321 on the side away from the second main body 31. The second guide surface 321 is an arc-shaped surface or an inclined surface. The inclined surface is inclined away from the folding hook 4, and the inclined surface cannot coincide with the vertical direction. When the second latching member 32 abuts against the third plate 223, the inclined or arc-shaped surface can abut against the third plate 223, which can convert the abutting force of the second latching member 32 into a sliding force along the guide direction, guiding it to slide accurately and smoothly into the hook groove 224. This reduces operating resistance and reduces wear on the second latching member 32 caused by hard impact, ensuring the stability of the locking fit.
[0072] As an example, the third plate 223 has a first guide surface 2231 at the end away from the second plate 222, and the second latching member 32 has a second guide surface 321 at the side away from the second locking member 3. When the second latching member 32 abuts against the third plate 223, the first guide surface 2231 and the second guide surface 321 fit together, which can bring a dual guiding effect, greatly reduce the latching resistance, and allow the second latching member 32 to slide more smoothly into the hook groove 224 along the guide trajectory.
[0073] In one embodiment, such as Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the first locking member 2 is rotatably connected to the mounting housing 1. When the first locking member 2 rotates around the first axis, the second locking member 3 can disengage from the first locking member 2, allowing the hook 100 to switch from a folded state to a first working state. Figure 3 Line a shown in the diagram is the first axis.
[0074] The first locking member 2 and the mounting housing 1 are connected by a rotating structure, which allows them to rotate around the first axis. When the hook 100 needs to be switched from the folded state to the first working state, the relative position of the first locking member 2 and the second locking member 3 can be changed by rotating the first locking member 2, so that the first latching member 22 and the second latching member 32, which were originally in a locking engagement state, can be separated.
[0075] After being unlocked, the folding hook 4 is no longer restricted and can rotate outward around its own axis of rotation. The hook 100 can switch from the folded state to the first working state, making it convenient to hang items.
[0076] As an example, the first locking member 2 is rotatably connected to the mounting housing 1. By rotating the first locking member 2, the first latching member 22 and the second latching member 32 can be disengaged, thereby unlocking the second locking member 3 and the first locking member 2.
[0077] When the hook 100 is in the folded state, the folding hook 4 is located on the side closer to the first locking member 2, and the first locking member 2 and the second locking member 3 are interlocked. When it is necessary to hang an item, rotate the first locking member 2 to separate the first latching member 22 from the second latching member 32. At this time, the folding hook 4 can be rotated away from the first locking member 2, and the second locking member 3 connected to it will move outward together, i.e., from... Figure 3 The state shown becomes Figure 6 The state shown in the image.
[0078] After the folding hook 4 moves outward together with the second locking member 3, the hook 100 can switch from the folded state to the first working state, making it easier to hang items. Figure 6 The state shown becomes as follows Figure 7The state shown in the diagram. Subsequently, when the hook 100 switches from the first working state to the second working state, the second locking member 3 can be rotated independently, or the hook 4 can be folded to rotate in conjunction with the second locking member 3, so that the first locking member 2 and the second locking member 3 are relocked to prevent the suspended item from falling. At this time, the hook 100 is in the state shown in the diagram. Figure 7 The state shown becomes as follows Figure 8 The state shown.
[0079] When you need to remove the hanging item, simply rotate the first locking member 2 again to separate the first latching member 22 from the second latching member 32. The second locking member 3 will no longer lock the folding hook 4, and the item can be removed from the folding hook 4.
[0080] In one embodiment, such as Figure 3 As shown, the first locking member 2 is connected to the mounting housing 1 via the fourth rotating shaft 23. The first locking member 2 can rotate around the fourth rotating shaft 23, and the central axis of the fourth rotating shaft 23 is the first axis.
[0081] The mounting housing 1 has two side plates arranged opposite each other in a direction parallel to the first axis. The two ends of a fourth rotating shaft 23 are connected to the two side plates respectively. The fourth rotating shaft 23 passes sequentially through one side plate, the first locking member 2, and the other side plate, connecting the first locking member 2 to the mounting housing 1. In this embodiment, the fourth rotating shaft 23 enables the rotation of the first locking member 2 relative to the mounting housing 1, as well as the connection between the first locking member 2 and the mounting housing 1.
[0082] The fourth rotating shaft 23 is inserted through the first body 21 and is located in the middle of the first body 21. When an external force is applied to the lower part of the first body 21, the first snap-fit member 22 on the upper part of the first body 21 can be moved away from the second snap-fit member 32, thus releasing the snap-fit.
[0083] In one embodiment, such as Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the hook 100 also includes an elastic element 5, which is disposed between the first locking element 2 and the mounting housing 1. When the first locking element 2 rotates in the first rotation direction, the second locking element 3 disengages from the first locking element 2, and the first locking element 2 squeezes the elastic element 5. The elastic force generated by the elastic element 5 can push the first locking element 2 to rotate in the second rotation direction, which is opposite to the second rotation direction.
[0084] When the hook 100 needs to switch from the folded state to the first working state, an external force drives the first locking member 2 to rotate along the first rotation direction. During this process, the first locking member 2 will compress the elastic member 5, causing the elastic member 5 to deform and generate elastic force. Furthermore, as the first locking member 2 rotates along the first rotation direction, the first latching member 22 moves away from the second latching member 32, causing the first latching member 22 and the second latching member 32, which were originally in a locked engagement state, to separate. After the lock is released, the folding hook 4 is no longer restricted and can rotate outward around its own rotation axis, allowing the hook 100 to switch from the folded state to the first working state.
[0085] After the first locking member 22 separates from the second locking member 32, the external force is removed. Under the elastic force of the elastic member 5, the first locking member 2 is pushed in the opposite direction to the first rotation direction to rotate in the second rotation direction until the first locking member 2 returns to the initial locking position, completing the automatic reset and preparing for the next locking of the first locking member 22 and the second locking member 32.
[0086] In this embodiment, the user only needs to apply a single external force to drive the first locking member 2, so that the first locking member 2 and the second locking member 3 are unlocked. After unlocking, no additional operation is required, and the elastic member 5 can automatically push the first locking member 2 back to the initial position.
[0087] As an example, the hook 100 also includes an elastic element 5, which is disposed on the lower part of the first body 21 on the side opposite to the folding hook 4. Figure 3 In the first rotation direction, which is clockwise, when the first locking member 2 rotates in this direction, the upper part of the first body 21 approaches the folding hook 4, causing the first latching member 22 to separate from the second latching member 32. At the same time, the lower part of the first body 21 moves away from the folding hook 4, which can compress the elastic member 5 and deform it. When the second rotation direction is counterclockwise, the elastic member 5 returns to its original shape and can push the lower part of the first body 21, causing the first locking member 2 to return to its original position.
[0088] In one embodiment, the elastic element 5 is a helical spring, elastic rubber, or torsion spring.
[0089] In one embodiment, such as Figure 3 , Figure 6 As shown, the hook 100 also includes an opening member 6, which is rotatably connected to the mounting housing 1 about a second axis. The opening member 6 is disposed between the folding hook 4 and the first locking member 2. When the second locking member 3 disengages from the first locking member 2, the opening member 6 and the folding hook 4 can rotate about the second axis. Figure 3 Line b in the diagram is the second axis, and the first axis is parallel to the second axis.
[0090] When the first locking member 2 and the second locking member 3 are interlocked, the folding hook 4 is locked by the engagement of the first latching member 22 and the second latching member 32, thus blocking the opening member 6 and preventing it from rotating. When the second locking member 3 disengages from the first locking member 2, the folding hook 4 is released from its locking restriction and becomes capable of rotating around the second axis. At this time, the rotation of the opening member 6 applies a pushing force to the folding hook 4. Under the pushing force of the opening member 6, the folding hook 4 rotates outward synchronously around the second axis, ultimately allowing the hook 100 to switch from the folded state to the first working state, completing the suspension preparation.
[0091] As an example, the hook 100 also includes an opening member 6, which is disposed between the folding hook 4 and the first locking member 2. The opening member 6 can contact the folding hook 4. When the second locking member 3 disengages from the first locking member 2, an external force is applied to the opening member 6, which can push the folding hook 4 so that the folding hook 4 can be pushed outward.
[0092] In one embodiment, such as Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the opening component 6 includes a mounting base 61, a first rotating shaft 62, and a limiting plate 63. The mounting base 61 is provided with a receiving groove 611, and the first end of the folding hook 4 is provided in the receiving groove 611. The first rotating shaft 62 passes through the folding hook 4 and the mounting base 61, and the central axis of the first rotating shaft 62 is the second axis. The limiting plate 63 is installed on the mounting base 61 and can abut against the second end of the folding hook 4.
[0093] The receiving groove 611 on the mounting base 61 provides installation space for the folding hook 4. The first rotating shaft 62 passes through the folding hook 4 and the mounting base 61, with its central axis (second axis) as the center of rotation, so that the two form a coaxial rotating structure. The limiting plate 63 can abut against the second end of the folding hook 4. When the opening member 6 rotates, it can stably transmit the thrust to the folding hook 4, ensuring that the opening member 6 and the folding hook 4 can rotate synchronously around the second axis.
[0094] In addition, the receiving groove 611 and the limiting plate 63 can restrict the position and rotation range of the folding hook 4 in both directions. When the folding hook 4 rotates outward from the mounting housing 1, the effective blocking of the receiving groove 611 prevents the folding hook 4 from rotating excessively and exceeding the reasonable hanging position, ensuring that the item can be hung stably. When the folding hook 4 rotates towards the first locking member 2, the limiting plate 63 can prevent the folding hook 4 from rotating excessively, thereby ensuring that the first locking member 2 and the second locking member 3 can be accurately aligned and reliably interlocked.
[0095] As an example, the opening component 6 includes a mounting base 61, a first rotating shaft 62, and a limiting plate 63. The mounting base 61 is provided with a receiving groove 611. The mounting base 61 includes a first mounting plate, a second mounting plate, and a third mounting plate. The first mounting plate, the second mounting plate, and the third mounting plate are connected in sequence. In a direction parallel to the second axis, the second mounting plate is located between the first mounting plate and the third mounting plate. The first mounting plate, the second mounting plate, and the third mounting plate enclose the receiving groove 611 with a U-shaped structure. The first end of the folding hook 4 is located in the receiving groove 611. In this way, when the folding hook 4 rotates outward, the second mounting plate can prevent the folding hook 4 from rotating excessively.
[0096] When the folding hook 4 is connected to the mounting base 61, the first rotating shaft 62 passes through the first mounting plate, the folding hook 4 and the third mounting plate in sequence, forming a coaxial connection between the folding hook 4 and the mounting base 61.
[0097] In this example, the mounting housing 1 has two side plates, which are arranged opposite each other in a direction parallel to the second axis. The opening member 6 is rotatably connected between the two side plates. The two ends of the first rotating shaft 62 are respectively connected to the two side plates, which enables the connection between the opening member 6 and the mounting housing 1, as well as the rotation of the opening member 6 relative to the mounting housing 1.
[0098] The limiting plate 63 has an inverted L-shaped structure and includes a first limiting plate 631 and a second limiting plate 632. The first limiting plate 631 is connected to the mounting base 61, and the second limiting plate 632 is connected to the first limiting plate 631. The second limiting plate 632 can abut against the folding hook 4 and push the folding hook 4 to rotate when the opening member 6 rotates.
[0099] In one embodiment, such as Figure 6 As shown, the hook 100 also includes an unlocking member 7. The first end of the unlocking member 7 is close to the first locking member 2, and the second end of the unlocking member 7 is close to the opening member 6. By pressing the end face of the second end of the unlocking member 7, the unlocking member 7 can drive the first locking member 2 and the opening member 6 to rotate sequentially.
[0100] By pressing the end face, the unlocking member 7 can be pushed towards the first locking member 2. The unlocking member 7 drives the first locking member 2 to rotate first, causing the first latching member 22 to separate from the second latching member 32, thus releasing the locking constraint of the folding hook 4. As the pressing action continues, the unlocking member 7 further drives the opening member 6 to rotate, causing the opening member 6 to push the folding hook 4 to rotate outward from the mounting housing 1.
[0101] Only when the second locking member 3 disengages from the first locking member 2 can the opening member 6 and the folding hook 4 rotate around the second axis. In this embodiment, by rotating the first locking member 2 and the opening member 6 in sequence, structural interference is avoided, allowing the folding hook 4 to rotate smoothly in an unconstrained state and reducing jamming.
[0102] As an example, the hook 100 also includes an unlocking member 7, the first end of which is disposed in the mounting housing 1, the end face of the second end of which is exposed in the mounting housing 1, the folding hook 4 is located above the unlocking member 7, and the unlocking member 7 passes under the folding hook 4 and approaches the first locking member 2, so that when the unlocking member 7 is pressed, the first end of the unlocking member 7 can drive the first locking member 2 to rotate, and the second end of the unlocking member 7 can drive the opening member 6 to rotate.
[0103] In one embodiment, such as Figure 3 , Figure 6 As shown, the opening member 6 is provided with a protrusion 64. The distance between the first end of the unlocking member 7 and the first locking member 2 is less than the distance between the second end of the unlocking member 7 and the protrusion 64. The first end of the unlocking member 7 can push the first locking member 2 to rotate, and the second end of the unlocking member 7 can push the protrusion 64 to rotate.
[0104] When the unlocking member 7 is pressed and moves, because it is closer to the first locking member 2, it contacts the first locking member 2 first, thus pushing the first locking member 2 to rotate. As the unlocking member 7 continues to move, the first locking member 2 and the second locking member 3 are unlocked. At the same time, the second end of the unlocking member 7 gradually approaches the protrusion 64 until it abuts against the protrusion 64. The unlocking member 7 then pushes the protrusion 64, causing the opening member 6 to rotate as a whole.
[0105] In this embodiment, by using a differential spacing design, the unlocking component 7 pushes the first locking component 2 before pushing the opening component 6, ensuring that the opening component 6 will drive the folding hook 4 to rotate only after the first locking component 22 and the second locking component 32 are completely separated, thus avoiding the situation where the opening component 6 is pushed before unlocking.
[0106] As an example, the opening member 6 is provided with a protrusion 64, which is connected to the lower part of the mounting base 61. In the moving direction of the unlocking member 7, the protrusion 64 is located on the side of the mounting base 61 closer to the first locking member 2, and the first rotating shaft 62 is mounted on the side of the mounting base 61 away from the first locking member 2. Pressing the unlocking member 7 can push the first locking member 2 and the opening member 6 to rotate sequentially.
[0107] Since the first rotating shaft 62 is not in the middle position of the mounting base 61, when the unlocking member 7 is no longer pressed, the opening member 6 can automatically return to its initial position under its own gravity; and during the return process, the lower unlocking member 7 can effectively block the protrusion 64, preventing the opening member 6 from rotating excessively due to gravity. When the unlocking member 7 is no longer pressed, the first locking member 2 returns to its original position under the action of the elastic member 5.
[0108] In one embodiment, the protrusion 64 is flat.
[0109] In one embodiment, the unlocking member 7 includes an unlocking body 71 and a push plate 72. The first end of the unlocking body 71 can abut against the first locking member 2, and the push plate 72 is connected to the second end of the unlocking body 71. The push plate 72 can abut against the opening member 6.
[0110] The first end of the unlocking body 71 directly abuts against the first locking member 2. When the unlocking member 7 is pressed, the first locking member 2 is immediately driven to rotate around the first axis, quickly initiating the unlocking action between the first locking member 2 and the second locking member 3. The push plate 72 and the protrusion 64 have a certain distance between them. When the push plate 72 moves a certain distance until it abuts against the protrusion 64, it begins to push the opening member 6 to rotate.
[0111] As an example, the unlocking component 7 includes an unlocking body 71 and a push plate 72. The unlocking body 71 is a columnar structure. The push plate 72 is installed at the end of the unlocking body 71 and is located below the mounting base 61. The push plate 72 is spaced apart from the protrusion 64. Only after the push plate 72 moves to abut against the protrusion 64 can the opening component 6 be rotated by pushing the protrusion 64.
[0112] In one embodiment, such as Figure 4 , Figure 7 As shown, the folding hook 4 includes a first link 41 and a second link 42. The first link 41 is rotatably connected to the mounting housing 1, and the first end of the second link 42 is slidably connected to the first link 41 so that the hook 100 switches between the first working state and the folding state. The second end of the second link 42 is rotatably connected to the second locking member 3.
[0113] The rotatable connection between the first link 41 and the mounting housing 1 allows the folding hook 4 to rotate outwards. The first end of the second link 42 can slide relative to the first link 41. When the second link 42 is subjected to external traction, its first end can slide along the first link 41, allowing the second end of the second link 42 to extend to a further position. The first link 41 and the second link 42 extend from the "mutually close state" when folded to the "approximately collinear or large angle state". The overall length of the folding hook 4 increases, enabling the hook 100 to gradually switch from the folded state to the first working state. The unfolded folding hook 4 can hang items.
[0114] When the folding hook 4 rotates inward, the first end of the second link 42 slides along the first link 41, and the second end of the second link 42 gradually retracts. The first link 41 and the second link 42 move from "approximately collinear or at a large angle" to "close to each other", thus enabling the hook 100 to switch from the first working state to the folding state.
[0115] As an example, the folding hook 4 includes a first link 41 and a second link 42. The first link 41 is rotatably connected to the mounting housing 1 about a second axis. The first link 41 is disposed in the receiving groove 611 of the mounting base 61. The first link 41 is rotatably connected to the mounting housing 1 through a first rotating shaft 62. The first rotating shaft 62 passes through the first link 41 and the mounting base 61.
[0116] The first end of the second link 42 is slidably connected to the first link 41. When the hook 100 is in the folded state, the first end of the second link 42 is connected to the end of the first link 41 near the mounting base 61. During the unfolding of the folded hook 4, the first end of the second link 42 gradually moves away from the end of the first link 41 near the mounting base 61. When the second end of the second link 42 extends to the farthest position, the first end of the second link 42 moves to the end of the first link 41 away from the mounting base 61, and the hook 100 is in the first working state.
[0117] Conversely, during the folding process of the folding hook 4, the first end of the second link 42 moves from the end of the first link 41 away from the mounting base 61 toward the end of the first link 41 closer to the mounting base 61. The first link 41 and the second link 42 gradually move closer to each other from a large angle state. When the first end of the second link 42 moves to the end of the first link 41 close to the mounting base 61, it stops moving. At this time, the first link 41 and the second link 42 can be folded up.
[0118] The sliding connection between the first end of the second link 42 and the first link 41 can be achieved by means of guide rail or guide groove.
[0119] In one embodiment, such as Figure 4 , Figure 7 As shown, the folding hook 4 also includes a second rotating shaft 43 and a third rotating shaft 44. The second rotating shaft 43 passes through the first end of the second connecting rod 42. The first connecting rod 41 is provided with a sliding groove 412, and the second rotating shaft 43 can move along the sliding groove 412. The third rotating shaft 44 passes through the second end of the second connecting rod 42 and the second locking member 3.
[0120] The second rotating shaft 43 passes through the first end of the second connecting rod 42 and is inserted into the groove 412 of the first connecting rod 41, guiding the movement of the second connecting rod 42 through the groove 412. When the folding hook 4 is unfolded or folded, the second rotating shaft 43 can slide back and forth along the length of the groove 412, thereby switching the hook 100 between the folded state and the first working state. Through the connection of the third rotating shaft 44, the second locking member 3 can rotate relative to the second connecting rod 42.
[0121] The second rotating shaft 43 is inserted into the slide groove 412 and has the degree of freedom of rotation around its own axis. Through the cooperation between the second rotating shaft 43 and the slide groove 412, the second connecting rod 42 can rotate relative to the first connecting rod 41. In the first working state, the first end of the second connecting rod 42 remains unchanged. When the second locking member 3 and the first locking member 2 need to be relocked, the rotation of the second rotating shaft 43 in the slide groove 412 causes the second end of the second connecting rod 42 to move synchronously with the second locking member 3, thereby changing the included angle between the first connecting rod 41 and the second connecting rod 42, so that the first connecting rod 41 and the second connecting rod 42 change from "approximately collinear or large included angle state" to small included angle state, which can realize the hook 100 switching from the first working state to the second working state.
[0122] As an example, the folding hook 4 also includes a second rotating shaft 43 and a third rotating shaft 44. The first connecting rod 41 is provided with a sliding groove 412, which is arranged along the extending direction of the first connecting rod 41. The second rotating shaft 43 passes through the first end of the second connecting rod 42, and the end of the second rotating shaft 43 is arranged in the sliding groove 412. The sliding groove 412 can guide the movement direction of the second rotating shaft 43, thereby guiding the second connecting rod 42.
[0123] The third rotating shaft 44 is mounted on the second locking member 3, and the third rotating shaft 44 passes through the second end of the second connecting rod 42, so that the second end of the second connecting rod 42 can rotate relative to the second locking member 3.
[0124] In one embodiment, such as Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, the first connecting rod 41 is provided with a first connecting groove 411 and two sliding grooves 412. The two sliding grooves 412 are arranged opposite each other along the central axis of the second rotating shaft 43. The first connecting groove 411 is located between the two sliding grooves 412 and communicates with the two sliding grooves 412. The first end of the second connecting rod 42 is located in the first connecting groove 411, and the two ends of the second rotating shaft 43 are respectively inserted into the two sliding grooves 412. That is, the second rotating shaft 43 passes through one sliding groove 412, the second connecting rod 42, and the other sliding groove 412 in sequence, and then the second connecting rod 42 is assembled into the first connecting groove 411 of the first connecting rod 41. The two sliding grooves 412 are more conducive to guiding the second rotating shaft 43 and reducing offset.
[0125] The second locking member 3 is provided with a second connecting groove 313, which is located at the end of the second body 31 away from the second snap-fit member 32. The second end of the second connecting rod 42 is disposed in the second connecting groove 313. The third rotating shaft 44 passes through the second connecting rod 42, and both ends of the third rotating shaft 44 are connected to the second locking member 3.
[0126] When the hook 100 is folded, the second link 42 is stored in the first connecting groove 411 and the second connecting groove 313. The second link 42 can be hidden, and the overall structure is more compact, improving space utilization. During the unfolding process, the second end of the second link 42 and the second locking member 3 only rotate relative to each other. Through the sliding of the second rotating shaft 43 in the slide groove 412, the first end of the second link 42 moves, and the length of the second link 42 accommodated in the first connecting groove 411 gradually decreases, so that the overall length of the folding hook 4 increases. The unfolded folding hook 4 can hang items.
[0127] In one embodiment, such as Figure 4 As shown, the outer peripheral surface of the second rotating shaft 43 is provided with a first locking block 431, and the first connecting rod 41 is provided with at least one first locking groove 413. All the first locking grooves 413 are connected to the slide groove 412. The first locking block 431 can be locked into the first locking groove 413 to limit the position of the second rotating shaft 43 in the slide groove 412.
[0128] When the second rotating shaft 43 slides along the slide groove 412, the first locking block 431 on its outer periphery moves synchronously with the shaft. When the second rotating shaft 43 slides to a preset position, the first locking block 431 can be embedded in a first locking groove 413 with slight rotation of the shaft or external force, forming a physical constraint and preventing the second rotating shaft 43 from continuing to slide along the slide groove 412, thereby fixing it in the current position. If it is necessary to adjust the position of the second rotating shaft 43, applying external force can disengage the first locking block 431 from the locking groove, restoring the ability of the second rotating shaft 43 to slide along the slide groove 412.
[0129] In this embodiment, by setting multiple first locking slots 413, the second rotating shaft 43 can be limited to different sliding positions, thereby making the second connecting rod 42 and the first connecting rod 41 form different angles. The angle is adjustable, realizing the switching of different unfolding states of the hook 100.
[0130] As an example, the outer peripheral surface of the second rotating shaft 43 is provided with a first engaging block 431, and the first connecting rod 41 is provided with at least one first engaging groove 413. There are two first engaging blocks 431 located at both ends of the axial direction of the second rotating shaft 43, and the first connecting rod 41 is provided with first engaging grooves 413 on both opposite sides along the central axis of the second rotating shaft 43. Each groove 412 can communicate with the first engaging groove 413 on the corresponding side.
[0131] The two ends of the second rotating shaft 43 are respectively inserted into the two sliding grooves 412, and each first locking block 431 is respectively locked into the first locking groove 413 on the corresponding side to ensure the stability of the position of the second connecting rod 42.
[0132] In one embodiment, such as Figure 4As shown, a second locking block 441 is provided on the outer circumferential surface of the third rotating shaft 44, and the second locking member 3 is provided with a connecting hole 311 and a second locking groove 312. The second locking groove 312 communicates with the connecting hole 311, and the third rotating shaft 44 passes through the connecting hole 311. The second locking block 441 can be locked into the second locking groove 312. Through the locking cooperation between the second locking block 441 and the second locking groove 312, the third rotating shaft 44 and the second locking member 3 can be relatively fixed. When the folding hook 4 rotates, the second locking member 3 is driven to move through the third rotating shaft 44.
[0133] As an example, the outer peripheral surface of the third rotating shaft 44 is provided with a second snap-fit block 441. There are two second snap-fit blocks 441 and they are located at both ends of the axial direction of the third rotating shaft 44. The connecting hole 311 and the second snap-fit groove 312 are located at the end of the second body 31 away from the second snap-fit member 32.
[0134] The second main body 31 has connecting holes 311 and second locking grooves 312 on opposite sides along the central axis of the third rotation axis 44. The connecting holes 311 and second locking grooves 312 on the same side are connected. Each second locking block 441 can engage with the corresponding second locking groove 312 to ensure the connection stability between the second connecting rod 42 and the second locking member 3.
[0135] In another embodiment, the folding hook 4 includes a first folding plate, a second folding plate, and a third folding plate. The first end of the first folding plate is rotatably connected to the mounting housing 1, the second end of the first folding plate is rotatably connected to the first end of the second folding plate, the second end of the second folding plate is rotatably connected to the first end of the third folding plate, and the second end of the third folding plate is rotatably connected to the second locking member 3.
[0136] The folding hook 4 can be folded and unfolded by rotating the three folding plates around their respective joints. During folding, the third folding plate first rotates towards the second folding plate and fits into it, then rotates towards the first folding plate and fits into it. Finally, the first folding plate drives the entire structure to rotate into the mounting housing 1, so that the three folding plates overlap inside the mounting housing 1. When unfolding, the first folding plate rotates outward, extends out of the mounting housing 1, and applies traction to the second locking member 3, causing the third folding plate to rotate outward around the second folding plate, and then causing the second folding plate to rotate relative to the first folding plate. Ultimately, the three folding plates can be extended to an approximately straight state, providing a hanging position for items.
[0137] This application also provides a vehicle including the hook 100 of any of the above.
[0138] The vehicle includes multiple hooks 100, which can be installed on the side of the passenger seat, the surface of the B-pillar, the inner wall of the trunk, and the inner side of the tailgate. By folding and unfolding the folding hooks 4, the hooks 100 can be pulled out and used to hang items when in use. The unfolded hooks 100 can provide more hanging positions to meet the user's needs for hanging more items. When not in use, they can be stored and hidden. The folding hooks 4 occupy less space when folded, and the locking cooperation of the first locking member 2 and the second locking member 3 ensures that the folding hooks 4 can maintain a stable stored state when not in use.
[0139] In this application, unless otherwise expressly defined, the terms "installation," "connection," and "linking" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.
[0140] The terms “first,” “second,” “third,” “fourth,” etc., used in this application are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence.
[0141] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit this application. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
