DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0021] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, rather than all of the embodiments; based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0022] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 , showing a screwless upper and lower shell assembly mechanism provided by an embodiment of the utility model, comprising an upper shell 10 and a lower shell 20, wherein the edges of both sides of the upper shell 10 extend downward with skirts 12 respectively, and each skirt 12 is provided with more than two hooks 13, and each hook 13 extends further downward from the skirt 12, and the lower shell 20 has two vertical side walls 21, and each vertical side wall 21 is provided with more than two buckle edge strips 22, and each buckle edge strip 22 extends a predetermined length along the length direction of the vertical side wall 21, and each buckle edge strip 22 is bent inwardly from the top edge of the vertical side wall 21 and then extends upward by a predetermined height, and the predetermined height is equal to or less than the downward extension height of the skirt 12, and the buckle edge strip 22 is combined with the inner side of the skirt 12, and a bayonet 23 is defined between at least two of the buckle edge strips 22, and the hook 13 is buckled in the bayonet 23, and the hook 13 is combined with the inner wall surface below the bayonet 23 at least at the bottom.
[0023] Specifically, the vertical side wall 21 of the lower shell 20 is provided with an elastic sheet 31, and the upper shell 10 is provided with a sinking stopper 17 at a position corresponding to the elastic sheet 31. The elastic sheet 31 is snap-fitted with the sinking stopper 17 to limit the horizontal movement of the upper shell 10 and the lower shell 20. The sinking stopper 17 is stamped from the upper shell.
[0024] Preferably, the sum of the lengths of all the buckle side strips 22 and the hooks 13 is equal to or slightly less than the length of the entire vertical side wall 21 or the side edge, thereby providing sufficient length to support the upper and lower shells to be firmly assembled together.
[0025] Specifically, the adjacent snap edge strips 22 and the hooks 13 are staggered in sequence, and the hooks 13 and the skirt 12 are correspondingly staggered and combined on the inner side surface of the vertical side wall 21 and the outer side surface of the snap edge strip 22. In a specific embodiment, the hook 13 is combined on the inner side surface of the vertical side wall 21. The skirt 12 is combined on the outer side surfaces of two adjacent snap edge strips 22. Preferably, each hook 13 is bent inward from the bottom edge of the skirt 12 and then extends downward.
[0026] Preferably, the length of the buckle edge strip 22 is greater than the length of the hook 13, and the length of the buckle edge strip 22 is more than three times the length of the hook 13. Therefore, the skirt 12 is mainly combined with each of the buckle edge strips 22, and the hook 13 is combined with the inner side surface of the vertical side wall 21 to provide a reverse combination force, and then cooperates with the buckling effect of the spring sheet 31 and the sinking stopper 17, so that the upper and lower shells are stably assembled.
[0027] like Figure 2 As shown, in some specific embodiments, the skirt 12 has a protrusion or convex strip 18 extending downward at at least one side of the hook 13, and the protrusion or convex strip 18 is stuck on the inner side or outer side of the vertical side wall 21. The protrusion or convex strip extends downward to a height of about 1-1.5 mm. The protrusion or convex strip 18 extends directly from the surface of the skirt 12 without bending inward or outward. The protrusion or convex strip 18 is slightly shorter than the hook 13, and the protrusion or convex strip 18 basically fills the vacancy of the bayonet 23. Therefore, the total length of the hook 13 and the protrusion or convex strip 18 at the same location is basically consistent with the horizontal length of the bayonet.
[0028] Furthermore, the upper shell 10 is L-shaped, and has an end side wall 15 connected between the two skirts 12. The lower shell 20 includes a bottom wall 24 and two vertical side walls 21. The edge of the lower shell 20 between the two vertical side walls 21 is an opening 25. The end side wall 15 covers one of the openings 25, and the end side wall 15 is provided with a heat dissipation grille 151.
[0029] like Figure 1 and 4As shown, further, the spring piece 31 is arranged at one end of the vertical side wall 21, extending parallel to the length direction of the side wall, and the main surface of the spring piece 31 extends horizontally. The sinking block 17 is arranged on the main surface shell of the upper shell 10, and the sinking block 17 is integrally formed on the upper shell 10 by punching out a hole. Specifically, a side wedge block 311 stands up from the inner side edge of the spring piece 31, and the sinking block 17 includes a sinking pressing portion 171. The sinking block 17 is formed with a buckle hole 172 after punching. The side wedge block 311 of the spring piece 31 slides over the pressing portion 172 and then buckles on the sinking block 17 to limit the horizontal movement of the upper and lower shells. The upper surface of the spring piece 31 is attached to the inner surface of the pressing portion 171. Specifically, the top of the side wedge block 311 of the spring piece 31 is stuck in the buckle hole 172. The vertical side wall 21 is provided with a press buckle 28 at a position corresponding to the buckle hole 172 or the spring sheet 31. Figure 3 As shown, a hook 13 close to the buckle 28 has an outer stopper 132 extending outwardly toward the buckle 28 , and the outer stopper 132 presses on the buckle 28 , thereby limiting the vertical looseness of the upper and lower shells and fixing the upper and lower shells vertically.
[0030] Preferably, the downward extension height of the skirt 12 is 3-5 mm, the predetermined height of the buckle edge strip 22 extending upward is 3-5 mm, and the length of the hook 13 extending downward is 2-4 mm. More preferably, the skirt 12 extends along the entire edge of the corresponding side edge of the upper shell 10, the sum of the lengths of each buckle edge strip 22 and each bayonet 23 is consistent with the length of the skirt 12, the width of the hook 13 is 3-5 cm, and the width of the bayonet 23 corresponds to the width of the hook 13.
[0031] It can be seen that in the above-mentioned screwless upper and lower shell assembly mechanism, the hook 13 and the buckle side strip 22 are hooked and assembled with each other, which does not occupy the structural space, is overall coordinated, and is convenient for installation and disassembly. The multiple hooks 13, the buckle side strips 22 and the bayonet 23 are buckled with each other, and the structure is compact and reliable. This solves the limitation of the internal space, improves the competitiveness of the product, saves assembly time, and provides a good experience for users.
[0032] It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiments. According to the creative spirit of the present invention, those skilled in the art may also make other changes. These changes made according to the creative spirit of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection required by the present invention.
