In addition, the terms "first", "second", etc. are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0029] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used in this specification have the same meaning as those commonly understood by technicians in the technical field of the present invention. The terms used in this specification are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not used to limit the present invention. The term "and / or" used in this specification includes any and all combinations of one or more related listed items.

[0030] See also Figures 1 to 3The utility model provides an embodiment of a sliding cover structure 100, wherein the sliding cover structure 100 comprises a sliding seat 1, a sliding cover 2 and an elastic member 3, wherein the sliding seat 1 is provided with a first limiting structure 11, the sliding cover 2 is slidingly provided on the sliding seat 1, the sliding cover 2 is provided with a second limiting structure 21, the elastic member 3 is provided on the sliding seat 1, and the elastic member 3 abuts against the sliding cover 2 in a direction perpendicular to the sliding direction of the sliding cover 2. When the sliding cover 2 is not subjected to a force perpendicular to the sliding direction of the sliding cover 2, the first limiting structure 11 and the second limiting structure 21 abut against each other under the elastic force of the elastic member 3 to limit the sliding of the sliding cover 2 relative to the sliding seat 1. When the sliding cover 2 is subjected to a force perpendicular to the sliding direction of the sliding cover 2, the first limiting structure 11 and the second limiting structure 21 are separated from each other, and the sliding cover 2 can slide relative to the sliding seat 1. Through the cooperation of the first limiting structure 11, the second limiting structure 21 and the elastic member 3, the sliding of the sliding cover 2 and the arbitrary hovering of the sliding cover 2 during the sliding process can be realized. Regarding the first limiting structure 11 and the second limiting structure 21 , it can be understood that the first limiting structure 11 and the second limiting structure 21 include but are not limited to a meshing structure, a magnetic attraction structure or a pressure adjustment structure.

[0031] Regarding the use of the above-mentioned slide cover structure 100, in some embodiments, the slide cover structure 100 has a restricted state and a sliding state. When the slide cover structure 100 is in the restricted state, the first limiting structure 11 and the second limiting structure 21 abut against each other under the elastic force of the elastic member 3. When the slide cover structure 100 is in the sliding state, the user can press the slide cover 2 so that the slide cover 2 is subjected to a force perpendicular to the sliding direction of the slide cover 2. The first limiting structure 11 and the second limiting structure 21 are separated from each other, and the slide cover 2 can slide relative to the slide seat 1. In addition, during the sliding process of the slide cover 2, the slide cover 2 needs to be continuously subjected to a force perpendicular to the sliding direction of the slide cover 2, that is, the user needs to continuously press the slide cover 2 so that the slide cover 2 is continuously subjected to a force perpendicular to the sliding direction of the slide cover 2. Therefore, the user can switch the restricted state and the sliding state of the slide cover structure 100 by applying a pressing action to the slide cover 2 or canceling the pressing action, so as to facilitate the slide cover structure 100 to achieve arbitrary hovering.

[0032] For the structure of the sliding cover structure 100, please refer to Figures 1 to 3In some embodiments, the number of the first limiting structures 11 and the second limiting structures 21 are both two groups, the two groups of first limiting structures 11 are symmetrically arranged along the central axis X of the slide 1, the two groups of second limiting structures 21 are symmetrically arranged along the central axis X of the slide 1, the two groups of first limiting structures 11 and the two groups of second limiting structures 21 are matched one by one, the elastic member 3 is symmetrically arranged along the central axis X of the slide 1, the opposite ends of the symmetrically arranged elastic member 3 abut against the slide 2 respectively, one end of the symmetrically arranged elastic member 3 cooperates with one group of the first limiting structures 11 and the second limiting structures 21, and the other end of the symmetrically arranged elastic member 3 cooperates with another group of the first limiting structures 11 and the second limiting structures 21. In the above manner, the hovering stability of the slide structure 100 and the sliding stability of the slide structure 100 can be increased.

[0033] For the first limiting structure 11 and the second limiting structure 21, please refer to Figures 3 to 5 The first limiting structure 11 is a first limiting rack 111, and the second limiting structure 21 is a second limiting rack 211. When the sliding cover 2 is not subjected to a force perpendicular to the sliding direction of the sliding cover 2, under the action of the elastic member 3, the first limiting rack 111 and the second limiting rack 211 are engaged to limit the sliding of the sliding cover 2 relative to the sliding seat 1. When the sliding cover 2 is subjected to a force perpendicular to the sliding direction of the sliding cover 2, the first limiting rack 111 and the second limiting rack 211 are separated to allow the sliding cover 2 to slide relative to the sliding seat 1.

[0034] For the first limiting rack 111 and the second limiting rack 211, please refer to Figures 3 to 5 , the extending directions of the first limiting rack 111 and the second limiting rack 211 are consistent with the sliding direction of the sliding cover 2. In the above manner, during the sliding process of the sliding cover 2, the structural instability caused by the direction change caused by the inconsistency between the extending directions of the first limiting rack 111 and the second limiting rack 211 and the sliding direction of the sliding cover 2 can be avoided.

[0035] For the first limiting rack 111 and the second limiting rack 211, please refer to Figures 3 to 5 , the extension length of the first limit rack 111 is greater than the extension length of the second limit rack 211. By the above method, the sliding cover 2 can be suspended arbitrarily relative to the sliding seat 1 within a relatively long travel range.

[0036] For the elastic member 3, see Figures 3 to 6The elastic member 3 includes an extension section 31 that is consistent with the sliding direction of the sliding cover 2, and the second position-limiting rack 211 can slide along the surface of the extension section 31. In some embodiments, the surface where the second position-limiting rack 211 contacts the extension section 31 is a plane, and the surface where the extension section 31 contacts the second position-limiting rack 211 is an arc-shaped surface. In this way, a line contact or point contact structure can be formed between the second position-limiting rack 211 and the extension section 31, which helps to reduce the friction between the second position-limiting rack 211 and the extension section 31, thereby reducing wear and extending the service life.

[0037] For the above extension section 31, see Figures 3 to 6 , the extension length of the extension section 31 is greater than the length of the second limit rack 211. Through the above method, the extension section 31 can always have a part in contact with the second limit rack 211, so that the elastic member 3 always has an elastic force on the second limit rack 211, so that during the entire sliding process, the second limit rack 211 can always be engaged with the first limit rack 111 under the elastic force, which helps to achieve the arbitrary hovering function of the sliding cover 2. In addition, through the above method, the extension section 31 can always have a part in contact with the second limit rack 211, so that the elastic member 3 always has a supporting effect on the sliding cover 2, which can prevent the sliding cover 2 from loosening and enhance the stability of the sliding cover 2.

[0038] For the elastic member 3, see Figures 3 to 6 The elastic member 3 further includes a connecting section 32 connected to the slide 1, and the slide cover structure 100 further includes a fixing member 4, and the connecting section 32 is fixed to the surface of the slide 1 away from the slide cover 2 through the fixing member 4. In some embodiments, the fixing member 4 includes but is not limited to being fixed to the surface of the slide 1 away from the slide cover 2 by bolt fixing, ultrasonic melting fixing, or glue point bonding fixing, and the connecting section 32 passes through the fixing member 4 and is pressed and fixed between the slide 1 and the fixing member 4.

[0039] For slide 1 above, see Figure 4 and Figure 5 The slide seat 1 is provided with a slide groove 12, the slide cover 2 includes a sliding portion 22 extending into the slide groove 12 and capable of sliding along the slide groove 12, and a second limiting rack 211 is formed on the sliding portion 22. Through the arrangement of the sliding portion 22 and the slide groove 12, the slide cover 2 can be allowed to slide along the slide groove 12 to ensure the accuracy of the sliding direction, which helps to ensure that the slide cover 2 remains stable and controllable during the sliding process.

[0040] For the elastic member 3, see Figures 3 to 6, the elastic member 3 at least partially extends into the slide groove 12 to abut against the sliding portion 22, the first limit rack 111 is formed on the wall of the slide groove 12 away from the elastic member 3, and the first limit rack 111 is arranged opposite to the second limit rack 211. By forming the first limit rack 111 on the wall of the slide groove 12 away from the elastic member 3, the structure can be integrated to be more compact, avoiding the gap caused by the assembly of parts in the non-integrated structure. In addition, by the relative arrangement of the first limit rack 111 and the second limit rack 211, it is helpful to improve the meshing accuracy of the first limit rack 111 and the second limit rack 211.

[0041] For slide 1 above, see Figures 3 to 6 The slide 1 includes a slide cover 13 and a slide frame 14. The slide cover 13 is sleeved on the slide frame 14. The slide cover 13 and the slide frame 14 jointly define a slide slot 12. The slide frame 14 is provided with a through hole 141 communicating with the slide slot 12. The elastic member 3 is provided on the slide frame 14. The elastic member 3 at least partially extends into the slide slot 12 from the through hole 141. In the above manner, the cooperation of the slide cover 13 and the slide frame 14 simplifies the assembly and disassembly of the slide 1, and is beneficial to the installation and maintenance of the slide cover 2 and the elastic member 3.

Compared with the related art in which the sliding cover 2 can only stop at the open and closed positions during the process of sliding relative to the sliding seat, in the embodiment of the utility model, through the above-mentioned method, the sliding cover 2 can not only stop at the open and closed positions during the process of sliding relative to the sliding seat 1, but also can hover arbitrarily between the open and closed positions, thereby effectively improving the flexibility of the sliding cover structure 100, and further effectively improving the practical convenience of the sliding cover structure 100, and meeting the specific needs or specific application scenarios of users.
