[0022] The technical solution of the utility model will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0023] In addition, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of the present invention described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0024] Figures 1 to 3 The soldering iron base 100 in one embodiment is shown. The soldering iron base 100 includes a main body 10, a bracket 20 and a storage bin 30. The main body 10 includes a receiving cavity 11. The bracket 20 is connected to the top surface 12 of the main body 10. The storage bin 30 is received in the receiving cavity 11 and can slide in the receiving cavity 11 to be in an open position relative to the main body 10 (see FIG. Figure 1 ) and a closed position (see Figure 2 )

[0025] With such a structure, spare electric soldering iron tips and other tools can be placed in the storage compartment 30, so that no additional storage box is needed, and the user can easily take the spare electric soldering iron tips from the electric soldering iron base 100 where the electric soldering iron 200 is placed, which is conducive to improving work efficiency.

[0026] The main body 10 is a flat cylinder. Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 The main body 10 includes an upper shell 101 and a lower shell 102 connected together. The upper shell 101 includes a circular top plate 103 and a side wall 104 extending along the edge of the top plate 103. Two mutually parallel protruding walls 105 are protruded on the inner surface of the top plate 103 facing the lower shell 102. One end of the two protruding walls 105 is connected to the side wall 104. The two protruding walls 105, the top plate 103 and the lower shell 102 form the above-mentioned receiving chamber 11. The side wall 104 is formed with an opening 1041 that communicates with the receiving chamber 11, which allows the storage bin 30 to extend into the receiving chamber 11 from the opening 1041.

[0027] The bracket 20 is made of a thin sheet (such as a metal sheet) and is roughly U-shaped. One end (bottom end) of the bracket 20 is connected to the top surface 12 of the main body 10 (i.e., the top surface of the upper shell 101), and the other end (top end) of the bracket 20 is provided with a through hole 21. The soldering iron 200 can pass through the through hole 21 and be stuck in the through hole 21, so that the soldering iron base 100 supports the soldering iron 200 and makes it suspended in the air.

[0028] The storage bin 30 includes a bottom plate 31 and a first side wall 32, a second side wall 33, a third side wall 34 and a fourth side wall (not shown in the figure) connected to each other, which together form a storage space for storing spare electric soldering iron tips. The first side wall 32 is generally arc-shaped, so that the storage bin 30 is Figure 2 In the closed position shown, the outer surface of the first side wall 32 and the side wall 104 of the main body 10 form a complete cylindrical surface.

[0029] In one embodiment, a card block 36 extends out from one end of the storage bin 30, and a locking assembly 13 is provided in the receiving cavity 11. When the storage bin 30 is in the closed position, the card block 36 and the locking assembly 13 engage, thereby locking the storage bin 30 in the closed position.

[0030] The locking assembly 13 can refer to the push self-locking structure in the prior art. For example, the structure of the push latch device disclosed in the U.S. Patent No. 4792165A, which was disclosed on December 20, 1988 and is named "PUSH LATCH DEVICE", can be adopted. According to the U.S. Patent, when the push latch device is used for the audio rack, the hook is attached to the corner of the port of the box defined as the main body of the audio rack so that the hook faces the door. The arrow-shaped engagement protrusion corresponding to the structure of the hook is assembled to the door. The engagement protrusion is clamped between the hooks to be stuck from both sides, thereby maintaining the closed state of the door. When the engagement protrusion is released from the hook, the door is opened. That is, when the door is in an open state, the user can push the door so that the arrow-shaped engagement protrusion moves toward the hook until the engagement protrusion is clamped between the hooks to be stuck from both sides, and the door changes from an open state to a closed state and can be maintained in the closed state. When the door needs to be opened, the user only needs to push the door so that the engagement protrusion is released from the hook, and the door changes from a closed state to an open state.

[0031] A technician who carefully reads US Pat. No. 4,792,165A will realize that the block 36 of the utility model can be constructed to have an arrow-shaped engagement protrusion of the US Pat. No. 4,792,165A, and the locking assembly 13 can be constructed to have a hook and an element associated with the hook. By adopting the same or similar structure as the push latch device disclosed in US Pat. No. 4,792,165A, when the storage bin 30 moves to the closed position, the block 36 engages with the locking assembly 13. When the storage bin 30 in the closed position is pushed by the user, the block 36 applies a thrust to the locking assembly, and after the user push on the storage bin 30 disappears, the locking assembly 13 pushes the block 36 outward and the block 36 gradually disengages from the locking assembly 13, so that the storage bin 30 is pushed outward and moves a short distance, thereby enabling the user to pull the storage bin 30 to the open position.

[0032] The push-to-lock structure similar to that disclosed in US Pat. No. 4,792,165A has been disclosed and widely used, so the present invention does not describe in detail the specific structure of the locking assembly 13. A person skilled in the art can obtain the specific structure and working principle of the known push-to-lock structure based on the above description. For example, a person skilled in the art can search on Amazon (www.amazon.com) with "push latch" as a keyword to obtain sufficient information related to the conventional push-to-lock structure.

[0033] Also refer to Figure 6 and Figure 7 In one embodiment, the bracket 20 is rotatably connected to the main body 10. Specifically, the electric soldering iron base 100 further includes an upper cover 40 fixed to the main body 10, and a protrusion 41 extends from the surface of the upper cover 40 facing the main body 10, and the protrusion 41 has a circumferential outer surface. The bracket 20 includes a through hole 22 at its bottom end, and the protrusion 41 is received in the through hole 22 so that the bracket 20 is rotatably connected to the main body 10.

[0034] In one embodiment, the through hole 22 is not directly formed on the bracket 20. The soldering iron base 100 further includes a circular ring 50, the top surface of which is protruded with a protrusion 51, and the through hole 22 is formed in the protrusion 51. The bracket 20 includes a through hole 23 corresponding to the protrusion 51, and the protrusion 51 is just received in the through hole 23. The circular ring 50 is fixed to the surface of the bracket 20 facing the main body 10. The protrusion 41 of the upper cover 40 passes through the through hole 23 of the bracket 20 and is received in the through hole 22 and fixed to the main body 10. With such a structure, Figure 5 As shown, the bracket 20 can rotate around the protrusion 51 .

[0035] In one embodiment, the soldering iron base 100 further includes a connector 60 . The upper shell 101 is provided with a through hole 106 . The connector 60 is received in the through hole 106 of the upper shell 101 . The protrusion 41 of the upper cover 40 is fixed to the connector 60 .

[0036] In one embodiment, the connecting member 60 includes a main body 61 received in the through hole 106 of the upper shell 101 and a hook portion 62 extending from the bottom surface of the main body 61, and the hook portion 62 is clamped on the bottom surface of the side wall of the through hole 106 of the upper shell 101, thereby fixing the connecting member 60 to the upper shell 101.

[0037] In one embodiment, the soldering iron base 100 further includes a locking member 70 connected to the upper cover 40 , and the bracket 20 includes a locking member mating portion, and the locking member 70 and the locking member mating portion are engaged with each other, thereby preventing the bracket 20 from rotating relative to the main body 10 .

[0038] In one embodiment, the locking member matching portion is a plurality of evenly distributed receiving grooves 24 formed on the inner surface of the through hole 22 of the bracket 20. The locking member 70 includes a spring 71 and a block 72, the two ends of the spring 71 respectively contact the upper cover 40 and the block 72, and the block 72 has a protrusion 721, and when the protrusion 721 is received in one of the plurality of receiving grooves 24, the bracket 20 can be prevented from rotating relative to the main body 10. In one embodiment, the surface of the upper cover 40 facing the main body 10 protrudes with a first wall 42 and a second wall 43 and a third wall 44 connected to the first wall 42 and spaced from each other, the spring 71 and the block 72 are received in the space defined by the first wall 42, the second wall 43 and the third wall 44, and the protrusion 41 has an opening 45 that is the same as the space defined by the first wall 42, the second wall 43 and the third wall 44, so that the protrusion 721 can pass through the opening 45 and be received in one of the plurality of receiving grooves 24.

[0039] With such a structure, when no external force of the user acts on the bracket 20 , the elastic thrust of the spring 71 keeps the protrusion 721 and one of the plurality of receiving grooves 24 tightly engaged, and the bracket 20 remains stationary relative to the main body 10 .

[0040] When the external force applied by the user to the bracket 20 can overcome the elastic thrust of the spring 71, the protrusion 721 received in one receiving groove 24 gradually moves out of the receiving groove 24 until it moves into another receiving groove 24. In the process of the user rotating the bracket 20, the relative movement between the protrusion 721 and the receiving groove 24 will occur repeatedly. Through the above structure, the user can sense the rotation of the bracket 20 relative to the main body 10, and the above structure can provide the user with a sense of gear, that is, the user can roughly sense the rotation angle of the bracket 20 relative to the main body 10 through the protrusion 721 moving into and out of the receiving groove 24.

[0041] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely examples for the purpose of clear explanation, and are not intended to limit the implementation methods. For those skilled in the art, other different forms of changes or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is not necessary and impossible to list all the implementation methods here. The obvious changes or modifications derived therefrom are still within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
