A quick-release mechanism for ski poles and glove webbing

Abstract

This invention discloses a quick-release structure for ski poles and glove webbing, belonging to the field of ski equipment technology. The structure includes a handle fixed to the top of the ski pole and a snap fastener fixedly connected to the glove webbing. The top of the handle has an integrally formed tubular seat that is higher at the front and lower at the back, angled to the ground. The top surface of the tubular seat has a slot and a through-hole along its length, and the inner wall has a compression guide structure. The snap fastener is inserted obliquely from the front of the tubular seat. After elastic deformation due to compression by the inner wall, its top hook engages with the slot to lock it in place. Pressing the hook to disengage it from the slot allows the snap fastener to be removed. This invention allows for quick assembly and disassembly by hand without tools, making it convenient to operate. The inclined seat utilizes the tension of the webbing to create a self-locking effect, providing excellent anti-slip and automatic tightening properties. Furthermore, the structure is simple, low-cost, and provides stable and reliable locking.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of ski equipment technology, specifically to a quick-release and detachable structure for ski poles and glove webbing. Background Technology

[0002] In skiing, ski poles are the core auxiliary equipment, and the connection performance between their handles and glove webbing directly affects the ease of operation and safety of use.

[0003] Currently, the connection structure between ski pole handles and glove webbing on the market has many defects: most adopt a fixed connection, making it difficult to easily replace glove webbing, resulting in poor compatibility and making it difficult for consumers to replace it themselves; some quick-release structures require professional tools and personnel to operate, which is extremely inconvenient in outdoor low temperatures and when wearing ski gloves; other quick-release structures have many parts, complex structures, high manufacturing costs, cumbersome disassembly and assembly steps, and are prone to problems such as wear and loosening of the buckles after long-term use, posing a safety hazard of accidental detachment during use.

[0004] Therefore, developing a tool-free, quick-assembly, reliable-locking, and streamlined connection structure between ski pole handles and glove webbing is of significant practical importance. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a quick assembly and disassembly structure for ski poles and glove webbing, enabling quick assembly and disassembly of glove webbing and ski pole handles by hand, while ensuring the structural reliability in the locked state, effectively solving the problems of cumbersome assembly and disassembly, inconvenient operation, and insufficient safety in the prior art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A quick-release structure for ski poles and glove webbing includes a snap fastener, a ski pole, and a handle fixedly installed at the top of the ski pole. The snap fastener and glove webbing are fixedly installed. A tubular seat is integrally formed at the top of the handle. The tubular seat is angled to the ground with its front higher than its back. A slot is formed in the center of the top surface of the tubular seat along its width, and a perforated slot is formed through it along its length. A hook block is provided at the center of the top surface of the snap fastener and is inserted into the tubular seat from the front. The snap fastener is deformed by the extrusion structure inside the tubular seat, which drives the hook block to engage with the slot. The connection between the snap fastener and the glove webbing extends out through the perforated slot from the rear end of the tubular seat. The hook block is pressed by external force to drive the snap fastener to deform and exit the slot.

[0007] Furthermore, the snap fastener is made of an arc-shaped elastic plate, and the hook block is integrally formed in the middle of the arched surface of the arc-shaped elastic plate. A button is integrally formed in the center of the top surface of the hook block. When the snap fastener is inserted into the tubular card seat, the button is located in the hollow groove. The arc-shaped elastic plate is deformed by interfering with the extrusion structure through external force.

[0008] Furthermore, the top surface of the button extends beyond the top surface of the tubular card holder, and anti-slip grooves are evenly distributed on the surface.

[0009] Furthermore, the extrusion structure consists of two extrusion grooves symmetrically formed on the left and right inner walls of the tubular card holder along the length direction, and the inlet of the extrusion groove is formed into a trumpet shape by chamfering the upper edge.

[0010] Furthermore, the front end of the extrusion groove penetrates the front end of the tubular card seat, while the rear end does not penetrate the rear end of the tubular card seat; the rear end of the arc-shaped elastic plate is integrally formed with a guide platform, which is obliquely inserted between the rear ends of the two extrusion grooves.

[0011] Furthermore, the rear end of the guide platform is integrally formed with a ring-shaped binding ear, which is bound to the glove webbing.

[0012] Furthermore, the outer surface of the handle is provided with a cork sleeve, and the bottom is provided with an axial mounting hole, in which the top end of the ski pole is fixedly installed.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this invention are: 1. No tools are needed; glove webbing and ski pole handles can be quickly installed and removed by hand. The operation is simple and convenient, and can be easily operated in scenarios such as wearing ski gloves and low outdoor temperatures. 2. The overall structure has few components, with the core components being only the handle and the spring-loaded latch. The structure is simplified, the processing and assembly are easy, the manufacturing cost is low, and the use and maintenance are convenient. 3. The tubular card holder is inclined with the front higher than the back, and the snap fastener is inserted and hooked along the inclined direction. During normal use, the glove webbing is pulled backward, which will cause the snap fastener to stick to the back and down along the inclined surface of the card holder, which will further increase the engagement depth between the hook block and the slot, forming a self-locking effect. The greater the pull, the more secure the engagement, which has excellent anti-slip performance. At the same time, it can automatically tighten the webbing, improve the grip fit and use safety. 4. The structure is stable and reliable in the locked state, and will not loosen unexpectedly under normal use conditions. It has low wear and tear and a long service life. Attached Figure Description

[0016] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0017] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, a quick-release structure for ski poles and glove webbing mainly consists of a handle 1, a snap fastener 2, glove webbing 3, a cork sleeve 4, and a ski pole 5. The handle 1 is fixedly installed at the top of the ski pole 5, and the snap fastener 2 is fixedly connected to the glove webbing 3. The snap fastener 2 can be quickly inserted and locked or separated from the handle 1 to achieve quick detachment of the glove webbing 3 from the ski pole handle.

[0018] Specifically, such as Figure 4 As shown, the bottom of the handle 1 has an axially oriented mounting hole 11, and the top of the ski pole 5 is inserted into the mounting hole 11 and fixedly connected; the outer surface of the handle 1 is covered with a cork sleeve 4 to improve the grip and anti-slip performance; the top of the handle 1 has an integrally formed tubular bracket 12, which is inclined in a front-high-back-low shape and set at a preset angle with the ground; the tilt direction is raised forward and upward along the length of the handle, so that the internal insertion channel of the bracket is extended obliquely; The top surface of the tubular card holder 12 has a slot 14 in the width direction and a hollow slot 15 in the length direction. The hollow slot 15 and the slot 14 form a cross structure and are interconnected. On the left and right inner walls of the tubular card holder 12, two extrusion slots 13 are symmetrically formed in the length direction. The extrusion slots 13 form a guide and extrusion structure for the insertion of the snap fastener. The front entrance of the extrusion slot 13 is chamfered at the upper edge to form a trumpet-shaped guide opening, which facilitates the smooth insertion of the snap fastener 2. The front end of the extrusion slot 13 penetrates the front end face of the tubular card holder 12, and the rear end does not penetrate the rear end face of the tubular card holder 12, forming a closed groove bottom limiting structure.

[0019] Specific examples Figure 5As shown, the snap fastener 2 is an integrated elastic structure, which is integrally formed by an arc-shaped elastic plate 23, a hook block 22, a button 21, a guide platform 24, and a binding ear 25. The material can be an engineering plastic with good elasticity and strength, such as PA. The arc-shaped elastic plate 23 is an upward-arched arc shape, which has the ability to deform elastically. The hook block 22 is integrally formed in the middle of the arched surface of the arc-shaped elastic plate 23, and the button 21 is integrally formed in the center of the top surface of the hook block 22. Multiple anti-slip grooves are evenly opened on the surface of the button 21, and the top surface of the button 21 is higher than the top surface of the tubular card seat 12, which is convenient for finger pressing operation. The rear end of the arc-shaped elastic plate 23 is integrally formed with a guide platform 24. The left and right sides of the guide platform 24 can be correspondingly embedded in two extrusion grooves 13 and slide along the extrusion grooves 13. The rear end of the guide platform 24 extends into a ring-shaped binding ear 25. The glove webbing 3 passes through the binding ear 25 and is tied and fixed, realizing the connection between the snap fastener 2 and the glove webbing 3.

[0020] The installation principle of this structure is as follows: Align the snap fastener 2 with the glove webbing 3 to the front opening of the tubular card holder 12, and insert it from the upper to the lower rear along the inclined direction of the tubular card holder 12; initially, the two sides of the arc-shaped elastic plate 23 enter the funnel-shaped entrance of the compression groove 13. Under the compression action of the upper wall of the compression groove 13, the arc-shaped elastic plate 23 undergoes downward elastic deformation, causing the hook block 22 and the button 21 to sink synchronously and slide backward along the hollow groove 15; continue to push the snap fastener 2 backward until the guide platform 24 abuts against the bottom of the rear end of the compression groove 13. At this time, the hook block 22 moves to the bottom of the slot 14, the arc-shaped elastic plate 23 loses the compression force and springs back to reset, causing the hook block 22 to be inserted into the slot 14, completing the locking installation of the snap fastener 2 and the handle 1; at this time, the glove webbing 3 passes out from the hollow groove 15 at the rear end of the tubular card holder 12, which can be held and worn by the user.

[0021] Because the tubular seat 12 is tilted with the front higher than the back, the snap fastener 2 is inserted and locked along the oblique direction. When the user holds the handle and applies force backward through the glove webbing 3, the pulling force will cause the snap fastener 2 to fit backward and downward along the inclined surface of the tubular seat 12, which will further increase the engagement depth between the hook block 22 and the slot 14. The greater the pulling force, the tighter the engagement, forming a self-locking effect. This structure can effectively prevent the snap fastener from accidentally coming out and has excellent anti-loosening performance. At the same time, it can automatically tighten the glove webbing, making the glove fit the handle more tightly, improving the stability of operation and the safety of use.

[0022] The disassembly principle of this structure is as follows: During disassembly, press button 21 downwards with your finger. The hook block 22 causes the arc-shaped elastic plate 23 to deform downwards elastically, allowing the hook block 22 to completely disengage from the slot 14. While maintaining the same pressing pressure, push button 21 forward and upwards along the inclined direction of the tubular seat 12. This causes the snap fastener 2 to slide forward along the compression groove 13. At the same time, the glove webbing 3 can be used to assist in pulling forward. When the snap fastener 2 has completely slid out of the front opening of the tubular seat 12, the arc-shaped elastic plate 23 springs back to its original position, thus completing the disassembly and separation of the glove webbing 3 from the handle 1.

[0023] 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, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
