Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of tool accessories technology, and in particular to a light-emitting structure for use on a sleeve. Background Technology

[0002] In modern tool use, sockets are an important tool component, widely used in mechanical repair, automobile maintenance, and other types of operations.

[0003] Traditional socket wrenches are often designed in a limited way, making it difficult for users to quickly find the tools they need in poorly lit environments. This not only wastes time and reduces work efficiency but can also lead to unnecessary safety hazards during work. In addition, with the diversification of industrial and home work environments, the demand for tools is becoming increasingly complex. Finding suitable tools in low-light or dark environments, especially in workshops, toolboxes, or dimly lit indoor spaces, requires operators to use additional lighting equipment, making operation inconvenient. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a light-emitting structure for use on a sleeve, thereby solving the technical problems existing in the prior art.

[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned objectives, the technical solution adopted by this invention is as follows:

[0006] A light-emitting structure for use on a sleeve includes: a sleeve body and a light-emitting element disposed on the sleeve body; the sleeve body has a preset strength and is able to withstand torque under various working conditions; the light-emitting element has a preset thickness and is provided with a protective layer on its exterior, the protective layer being made of a transparent material.

[0007] Furthermore, the light-emitting component includes a connector, which has a preset elasticity and an adhesive part on the working surface near the sleeve body, the adhesive part being adhesively connected to the sleeve body; the other working surface is provided with a light-emitting coating, the light-emitting coating being adapted to the working size of the connector.

[0008] Furthermore, the luminescent coating is made of rare-earth fluorescent materials.

[0009] Furthermore, the thickness of the luminescent coating is 0.1-0.3 mm.

[0010] Furthermore, the thickness of the protective layer is 0.02-0.05 mm.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0012] (i) The present invention provides a light-emitting element on the sleeve body, which can emit light in low light or dark environments, making the sleeve body more conspicuous and making it easier for users to quickly locate the sleeve body, avoiding wasting time in the search process, thereby improving work efficiency. Even in dimly lit indoor spaces or toolboxes, users can easily find the sleeve body without having to spend extra effort using lighting equipment to search for it.

[0013] (ii) The protective layer of the present invention can protect the luminescent coating from external environmental wear, scratches and chemical corrosion, extend the service life of the luminescent component, and will not affect the luminescent effect of the luminescent coating. It ensures that the luminescent structure can always maintain good luminescent performance during long-term use, reduces the frequency of replacement due to damage to the luminescent component, and reduces the cost of use.

[0019] To make the content of this invention easier to understand, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Identical components are represented by the same reference numerals. It should be noted that the terms "front," "rear," "left," "right," "up," and "down" used in the following description refer to directions in the accompanying drawings, while the terms "inner" and "outer" refer to directions toward or away from the geometric center of a specific component, respectively.

[0020] Example 1:

[0021] like Figure 1-2As shown, this embodiment provides a light-emitting structure for a sleeve, including: a sleeve body 1 and a light-emitting element 2 disposed on the sleeve body 1; the sleeve body 1 has a preset strength and can withstand torque under various working conditions; the sleeve body 1 includes sleeve components of all models and materials currently used in the market, such as straight thread steel bar sleeves, cold extruded steel bar sleeves, and hexagonal sleeves; the light-emitting element 2 has a preset thickness and is provided with a protective layer on its outside; the protective layer is made of a transparent material, specifically silicone resin, which has excellent transparency, can maintain stability at extreme temperatures, and can adapt to various harsh environmental conditions, providing protection for the light-emitting element 2; the thickness of the protective layer is 0.02-0.05mm, which provides just the right amount of protection while minimizing the potential impact on the light-emitting performance, ensuring that the light-emitting element 2 maintains a good light-emitting state during long-term use.

[0022] The light-emitting element 2 includes a connector 5, which has a preset elasticity and can flexibly and tightly adhere to the surface of the sleeve body 1. An adhesive portion 3 is provided on the working surface near the sleeve body 1. The adhesive portion 3 is made of a high-performance adhesive material and is adhesively connected to the sleeve body 1. This connection method is simple, convenient, and highly reliable, ensuring that even if the sleeve body 1 is subjected to external forces such as vibration or impact during use, the light-emitting element 2 can remain stably attached to the sleeve body 1 without detaching. A light-emitting coating 4 is provided on the other working surface of the connector 5. The light-emitting coating 4 is adapted to the working dimensions of the connector 5, ensuring that it remains within the entire effective working area of ​​the connector 5. All of them can emit light evenly; the thickness of the luminescent coating 4 is 0.1-0.3mm. The thinner thickness ensures that the luminescent effect of the luminescent coating 4 is not obstructed too much, ensuring that the light can be emitted smoothly; on the other hand, it also avoids material waste, weight increase, and possible adverse effects on the operation feel of the sleeve body 1 caused by excessive coating thickness; the luminescent coating 4 is made of rare earth fluorescent material. Rare earth fluorescent material has efficient light absorption and emission capabilities. It can quickly absorb and store light energy under illumination conditions. When the ambient light weakens, it can slowly and persistently release bright visible light, providing clear visual indication for users. The rare earth fluorescent material is existing technology, and its formula and preparation process will not be described in detail here.

[0023] Example 2:

[0024] The remaining components are the same as in Embodiment 1. This embodiment is an extension based on that, such as... Figure 3As shown, the sleeve body 1 is a long sleeve 6, and the light-emitting element 2 is sleeved on the outside of the long sleeve 6. The adhesive part 3 of the light-emitting element 2 is adhesively connected to the outer wall of the long sleeve 6, so that the operator can easily find the position of the long sleeve 6 in a dimly lit indoor space or toolbox without having to spend extra effort to find it using lighting equipment.

[0025] Example 3:

[0026] The remaining components are the same as in Embodiment 1. This embodiment is an extension based on that, such as... Figure 4 As shown, the sleeve body 1 is a screwdriver sleeve 7, specifically a flower-shaped screwdriver sleeve 7. The light-emitting element 2 is sleeved on the outside of the screwdriver sleeve 7. The adhesive part 3 of the light-emitting element 2 is adhesively connected to the working surface on one side of the screwdriver sleeve 7. In actual use, the light-emitting element 2 can not only improve work efficiency and reduce misoperation, but also ensure the safety of operators in some special working environments.

[0027] Example 4:

[0028] The remaining components are the same as in Embodiments 1, 2, and 3. The difference is that the luminescent coating 4 is uniformly sprayed onto the outer surface of the sleeve body 1. The specific operation method is to wipe the outer surface of the sleeve body 1 to remove oil and impurities, and then use a sandblasting process to sandblast the surface of the sleeve body 1 to increase the adhesion of the sleeve body 1 surface; then, the luminescent coating 4 is uniformly sprayed onto the sandblasted outer surface of the sleeve body 1, and then the luminescent coating 4 on the sleeve body 1 is cured.

[0029] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
