Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of buttons, and in particular to a locking mechanism, a button structure and a button product. Background Art

[0002] The button structure is generally used to realize the disassembly and fixation of the product, including a locking mechanism arranged on the fixed part and a matching part arranged on the movable part. The matching part and the locking mechanism can be engaged to realize the fixation of the fixed part and the movable part, or can also be separated to separate the fixed part and the movable part.

[0003] In the related art, the locking mechanism includes two opposing hooks, and the two hooks are connected to the fixed part through a flexible plastic, so that the two hooks can move relative to each other. When cooperating with the movable part, the two hooks can approach each other, clamp the two sides of the matching part tightly, and achieve locking; when the fixed part is to be separated from the movable part, the two buckles can move away from each other so that the matching part can be detached from between the two hooks. In this setting, the amount of engagement between the hook and the matching part is small, and the locking mechanism is easy to fall out, which affects the use effect of the key structure. It can only be used for some products with less high testing requirements, such as trash cans, etc., which limits its use scenarios. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0040] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. 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.

[0041] It should be understood that the references to "one embodiment" or "an embodiment" throughout the specification mean that the specific features, structures, or characteristics associated with the embodiment are included in at least one embodiment of the present invention. Therefore, the references to "in one embodiment" or "in an embodiment" appearing throughout the specification do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment. In addition, these specific features, structures, or characteristics may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments.

[0042] like Figures 1 to 14 As shown, the locking mechanism 100 includes a shell 10, a button assembly 20 and at least one locking member 30. The locking member 30 is movably connected to the shell 10 along a first direction X, and the button assembly 20 is movably connected to the shell 10 along a second direction Y. The first direction X intersects with the second direction Y. A matching structure 40 is provided between the locking member 30 and the button assembly 20. The button assembly 20 can drive the locking member 30 to move through the matching structure 40, so that the locking mechanism 100 is switched between a locked state and an unlocked state. When the locking mechanism 100 is in a locked state, the locking member 30 at least partially extends out of the shell 10, and when the locking mechanism 100 is in an unlocked state, the locking member 30 retracts into the shell 10.

[0043] In the embodiment of the utility model, the locking mechanism 100 includes a housing 10, a key assembly 20 and at least one locking member 30, wherein the locking member 30 is movably connected to the housing 10 along a first direction X, and the key assembly 20 is movably connected to the housing 10 along a second direction Y, and the first direction X intersects with the second direction Y, so the key assembly 20 and the locking member 30 can move in different directions in the housing 10. Since a matching structure 40 is provided between the locking member 30 and the key assembly 20, when the key assembly 20 moves, it can drive the locking member 30 to move through the matching structure 40, so that the locking mechanism 100 can be switched between a locked state and an unlocked state, and the locking function or unlocking function of the locking mechanism 100 is realized by the movement of the locking member 30. That is, in the embodiment of the utility model, the locking member 30 can move in the housing 10, and at least a part of the locking member 30 can be used as a part that matches with the matching member 200 to realize the locking function or unlocking function of the locking mechanism 100. Since the present application realizes the locking function or unlocking function of the locking mechanism 100 by moving the locking piece 30, the engagement amount of the locking mechanism 100 and the matching piece 200 can be controlled by setting the extended length of the locking piece 30, thereby avoiding the solution of setting two hooks to clamp and hold the matching piece 200 in the prior art, thereby also avoiding the problem of small engagement amount when the hook and the matching piece 200 are matched, which can improve the locking effect of the locking mechanism 100 and increase the usage scenarios of the locking mechanism 100.

[0044] It should be noted that when the locking mechanism 100 is in a locked state, at least a portion of the locking member 30 can extend out of the shell 10, and at this time, the extended portion of the locking member 30 can cooperate with the matching member 200 to achieve locking. When the locking mechanism 100 is in an unlocked state, at least a portion of the locking member 30 is retracted into the shell 10, and at this time, the locking member 30 can be unlocked and separated from the matching member 200. In the case where the locking mechanism 100 is in the unlocked state, the locking member 30 can have different states. For example, the locking member 30 can be completely located inside the housing 10. At this time, the locking member 30 as a whole moves to a position located inside the housing 10, and there is no part extending from the housing 10, so that the locking member 30 can be separated from the matching member 200 to achieve the unlocking function; or, in the case where there is a gap between the matching member 200 and the housing 10, the locking member 30 can also be partially located inside the housing 10 and the other part extending out of the housing 10, that is, the locking member 30 can also partially extend from the housing 10 and be located in the above-mentioned gap, so that the locking member 30 can also be separated from the matching member 200 to achieve the unlocking function. In the case where there is a gap between the matching member 200 and the housing 10, specifically, there is a gap between the surface of the matching member 200 facing the locking member 30 and the surface of the housing 10 for extending the locking member 30.

[0045] It should also be noted that the first direction X and the second direction Y intersect, and there may be an angle between the first direction X and the second direction Y. Specifically, the angle may be 90°, that is, the first direction X and the second direction Y are perpendicular to each other. The angle may also be other values, for example, 60°, 70°, 76°, 80°, 95°, etc. The specific value of the angle between the first direction X and the second direction Y is not specifically limited in the embodiment of the utility model.

[0046] In addition, in the related art, the hook switches the state through the flexible characteristics of the plastic part. Therefore, if the locking mechanism 100 is in the locked state for a long time, the plastic part is also in a state for a long time. When opened, the flexible plastic part will not be able to automatically restore its unused state, which will cause the key structure to get stuck, resulting in a poor user experience. However, the present application switches the state through the movement of the locking member 30, avoiding the influence of the characteristics of the locking member 30 itself on the locking effect. In addition, during the movement of the locking member 30, the shape of the locking member 30 itself will not change. Therefore, it can also avoid the locking member 30 being in a state for a long time, and the shape change of the locking member 30 causing the locking mechanism 100 to jam when switching the state, thereby also providing users with a good user experience.

[0047] In addition, in some embodiments, Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Fig.13As shown, the shell 10 includes a base 16 and a cover plate 17, the base 16 is provided with a mounting groove 163, the cover plate 17 is connected to the groove of the mounting groove 163, the groove wall of the mounting groove 163 is provided with a first mounting hole and a second mounting hole, the first mounting hole extends along the first direction X, and the second mounting hole extends along the second direction Y, the button assembly 20 is passed through and slidably connected to the first mounting hole, and the locking member 30 is passed through and slidably connected to the second mounting hole.

[0048] The housing 10 includes a base 16 and a cover plate 17, wherein a mounting groove is provided on the base 16, and the cover plate 17 is connected to the notch of the mounting groove and is connected to the base 16, so that the base 16 and the cover plate 17 can enclose a chamber, which can provide a mounting position for the key assembly 20 and the locking member 30. Specifically, a first mounting hole extending along a first direction X and a second mounting hole extending along a second direction Y are provided on the groove wall of the mounting groove 163, and the key assembly 20 can be inserted and slidably connected to the first mounting hole, and the locking member 30 can be inserted and slidably connected to the second mounting hole, so that the key assembly 20 can move along the second direction Y to extend from the second mounting hole or retract into the second mounting hole, and the locking member 30 can move along the first direction X to extend from the first mounting hole or retract into the first mounting hole.

[0049] The cover plate 17 is disposed on the base 16 to cover the key assembly 20, the locking member 30, etc. inside the base 16, and plays a decorative role. In addition, the cover plate 17 can also abut against the key assembly 20 and the locking member 30 to limit the key assembly 20 and the locking member 30 in the direction from the base 16 to the cover plate 17.

[0050] In addition, in some embodiments, Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown, the matching structure 40 may include a sliding shaft 41 and a first sliding groove 42. The sliding shaft 41 is provided on one of the button assembly 20 and the locking member 30, and the first sliding groove 42 is provided on the other of the button assembly 20 and the locking member 30. The sliding shaft 41 is slidably connected to the first sliding groove 42; the first sliding groove 42 extends along a third direction Z, and the third direction Z is parallel to the plane where the first direction X and the second direction Y are located, and intersects with both the first direction X and the second direction Y.

[0051] The matching structure 40 includes a sliding shaft 41 and a first sliding groove 42. The sliding shaft 41 can be embedded in the first sliding groove 42, and the sliding shaft 41 can slide in the first sliding groove 42, that is, the sliding shaft 41 and the first sliding groove 42 can match and connect the key assembly 20 and the locking member 30 as the matching structure 40. Specifically, the sliding shaft 41 can be provided on one of the key assembly 20 and the locking member 30, and the first sliding groove 42 can be provided on the other of the key assembly 20 and the locking member 30, so that the key assembly 20 and the locking member 30 can be connected through the sliding shaft 41 and the first sliding groove 42. Among them, the first sliding groove 42 extends along the third direction Z. Since the third direction Z is parallel to the plane where the first direction X and the second direction Y are located, and intersects with both the first direction X and the second direction Y, when the first sliding groove 42 is subjected to force, the force can be decomposed into two forces along the first direction X and the second direction Y, so that the key assembly 20 can move along the second direction Y, and the locking member 30 can move along the first direction X. Therefore, when the button assembly 20 moves along the second direction Y, the button assembly 20 can drive the locking member 30 to move along the first direction X, so that the locking member 30 can be moved by operating the button assembly 20 to switch the state of the locking mechanism 100.

[0052] The slide shaft 41 can be arranged on the key assembly 20, and the first slide groove 42 can be arranged on the locking member 30. When the user operates the key assembly 20, the key assembly 20 moves and can drive the slide shaft 41 to move at the same time, so that the slide shaft 41 and the first slide groove 42 move relative to each other, and drive the locking member 30 to move; or the slide shaft 41 can be arranged on the locking member 30, and the first slide groove 42 can be arranged on the key assembly 20. When the user operates the key assembly 20, the key assembly 20 moves and can drive the first slide groove 42 to move at the same time, so that the slide shaft 41 and the first slide groove 42 move relative to each other, and drive the locking member 30 to move. The specific arrangement of the slide shaft 41 and the first slide groove 42 is not specifically limited in the embodiment of the utility model.

[0053] It should be noted that the third direction Z intersects with both the first direction X and the second direction Y, and is parallel to the plane where the first direction X and the second direction Y are located, and the angles between the third direction Z and the first direction X and the second direction Y can all be 90°. Of course, the angle between the third direction Z and the first direction X can also be other values, such as 60°, 70°, 76°, 80°, 95°, etc., and the angle between the third direction Z and the second direction Y can also be other values, such as 30°, 20°, 56°, 70°, 65°, etc. The specific direction of the third direction Z is not specifically limited in the embodiment of the utility model.

[0054] In addition, the present application controls the movement of the locking member 30 by cooperating with the sliding shaft 41 and the first sliding groove 42. The stroke of the locking member 30 can be adjusted according to the size of the first sliding shaft 41 in the first direction X, which is convenient for adjustment according to actual needs, has high versatility and is more flexible.

[0055] In addition, in some embodiments, Figure 6 As shown, the matching structure 40 may also include a second slide groove 43 or a third slide groove 44, the second slide groove 43 is connected to one end of the first slide groove 42 and communicates with the first slide groove 42, the third slide groove 44 is connected to the other end of the first slide groove 42 and communicates with the first slide groove 42, and the extension direction of the second slide groove 43 and the third slide groove 44 is parallel to the second direction Y.

[0056] The matching structure 40 further includes a second slide groove 43 or a third slide groove 44. The second slide groove 43 is connected to one end of the first slide groove 42 and communicates with the first slide groove 42. The third slide groove 44 is connected to the other end of the first slide groove 42 and communicates with the first slide groove 42. Therefore, the second slide groove 43 and the third slide groove 44 are located at both ends of the first slide groove 42. After the slide shaft 41 is set, the slide shaft 41 can move from the first slide groove 42 to the second slide groove 43 or the third slide groove 44. Since the extension direction of the second slide groove 43 and the third slide groove 44 is parallel to the second direction Y, that is, the extension direction of the second slide groove 43 and the third slide groove 44 is consistent with the moving direction of the key assembly 20, when the key assembly 20 is operated to make the slide shaft 41 move in the second slide groove 43 or the third slide groove 44, the second slide groove 43 and the third slide groove 44 cannot apply a force along the first direction X to the locking member 30. Therefore, during this movement, the key assembly 20 moves along the second direction Y, while the locking member 30 remains stationary. That is, when the slide shaft 41 moves in the first slide groove 42, the key assembly 20 can push the locking member 30 to move, and when the slide shaft 41 moves in the second slide groove 43 or the third slide groove 44, the locking member 30 remains stationary. Therefore, the second slide groove 43 and the third slide groove 44 can be used to limit the locking member 30, that is, when the locking member 30 is in the locked state or the unlocked state, the slide shaft 41 can cooperate with the second slide groove 43 and the third slide groove 44, and when the locking member 30 switches between the locked state and the unlocked state, the slide shaft 41 can cooperate with the first slide groove 42. When the locking member 30 is in a locked state, at least a portion of the locking member 30 extends out of the housing 10. This exposed portion of the locking member 30 may abut or collide with the mating member 200 or other components, thereby being subjected to a force along the first direction X. At this time, since the sliding shaft 41 is located in the second sliding groove 43 or the third sliding groove 44, the sliding shaft 41 can only move along the second direction Y. In the first direction X, the movement of the sliding shaft 41 is restricted. Therefore, it is possible to avoid the locking member 30 being forced to move toward the inside of the housing 10, causing the locking mechanism 100 to be disengaged.

[0057] In addition, in some embodiments, Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, the button assembly 20 may include a button body 21, a first guide rod 22 and a first elastic member 23. The button body 21 is penetrated and slidably connected to the shell 10. One end of the first guide rod 22 is connected to the button body 21. A first mounting portion 11 is provided in the shell 10. The other end of the first guide rod 22 is guided and connected to the first mounting portion 11. The first elastic member 23 is sleeved on the outside of the first guide rod 22, and one end of the first elastic member 23 is abutted against the first mounting portion 11, and the other end is abutted against the button body 21.

[0058] The key assembly 20 includes a key body 21, a first guide rod 22 and a first elastic member 23, wherein the key body 21 is inserted into the housing 10 and is slidable relative to the housing 10, and the user can operate the key assembly 20 through the key body 21. A first mounting portion 11 is provided in the housing 10, one end of the first guide rod 22 is connected to the key body 21, and the other end of the first guide rod 22 is guidedly connected to the first mounting portion 11. Since the first elastic member 23 is sleeved on the outside of the first guide rod 22, and one end of the first elastic member 23 abuts against the first mounting portion 11, and the other end abuts against the key body 21, when the user presses the key body 21, the key body 21 can squeeze the first elastic member 23, and at this time, the first elastic member 23 is compressed and can store elastic potential energy. When the locking mechanism 100 is in the initial state (the button assembly 20 is not pressed), the locking mechanism 100 is in the locked state, and the button assembly 20 is at least partially located outside the shell 10. At this time, the button assembly 20 is located at the outermost side, and the locking piece 30 is at least partially extended from the shell 10; when the user presses the button body 21, the button body 21 moves toward the inside of the shell 10 and squeezes the first elastic piece 23, so that the first elastic piece 23 is compressed. At this time, the locking piece 30 can be extended into the interior of the shell 10, and the locking mechanism 100 is in the unlocked state and can be installed or disassembled. After the user lets go, the first elastic piece 23 can extend under the action of its own elastic force and push the button body 21 outward, so that the button body 21 moves along the second direction Y. At this time, the button body 21 can drive the locking piece 30 to move so that the locking piece 30 extends. That is, in the present application, a first elastic member 23 is provided in the button assembly 20, and the user presses the button body 21 to put the locking mechanism 100 into an unlocked state. After the user cancels the pressing of the button body 21, the locking mechanism 100 can automatically return to its position under the action of the first elastic member 23, so that the locking mechanism 100 is in a locked state.

[0059] It should be noted that a button cap 212 may be connected to the side of the button body 21 away from the first guide rod 22, and the button cap 212 is detachably connected to the button body 21. The button cap 212 is inserted through and slidably connected to the housing 10, and the user may apply force to the button assembly 20 through the button cap 212. In addition, in actual use, the button cap 212 of different shapes or structures may be replaced according to actual needs.

[0060] In addition, in some embodiments, Figure 2 , Fig.10 As shown, a first baffle plate 111 may be provided in the housing 10 , the first baffle plate 111 forms the first mounting portion 11 , a first guide hole 112 is provided on the first baffle plate 111 , and the other end of the first guide rod 22 passes through and is slidably connected to the first guide hole 112 .

[0061] A first baffle 111 is provided in the housing 10. The first baffle 111 can form the above-mentioned first mounting portion 11 and be connected to the first guide rod 22 for guiding. Specifically, a first guide hole 112 can be provided on the first baffle 111. The other end of the first guide rod 22 is inserted into the first guide hole 112. Since the first guide rod 22 is slidable relative to the first guide hole 112, when the user presses the button body 21, the first guide rod 22 can be driven to move, so that the first guide rod 22 can move in the first guide hole 112 and compress the first elastic member 23 to store elastic potential energy so that the button assembly 20 can be reset later.

[0062] The first guide rod 22 is inserted into the first guide hole 112, and the first guide hole 112 can guide the movement of the first guide rod 22, so that the first guide rod 22 can move along the axial direction of the first guide hole 112, and then the expansion and contraction direction of the first elastic member 23 can be guided, so as to avoid the first elastic member 23 from bending, deflecting and other problems during the expansion and contraction process. In the embodiment of the utility model, the axial direction of the first guide hole 112 is consistent with the second direction Y.

[0063] In addition, in some embodiments, Figure 5 , Fig.10 As shown, a guide block 211 may be provided on the button body 21 , a guide groove 12 extending along the second direction Y is provided in the housing 10 , and the guide block 211 is slidably connected to the guide groove 12 .

[0064] A guide block 211 is provided on the button body 21, and a guide groove 12 extending along the second direction Y is provided in the shell 10. Since the guide block 211 is slidably connected to the guide groove 12, when the button body 21 moves along the second direction Y in the shell 10, the guide block 211 can move in the guide groove 12. The guide groove 12 cooperates with the guide block 211 to guide the movement of the button body 21.

[0065] It should be noted that the guide groove 12 can have different settings. For example, two guide bars extending along the second direction Y can be set in the housing 10, and the two guide bars are spaced apart along the first direction X, so that the two guide bars can form the above-mentioned guide groove 12, and the guide block 211 can be embedded between the two guide grooves 12; or, a guide member can be connected to the housing 10, and the guide groove 12 is set on the guide member. The specific setting method of the guide groove 12 is not specifically limited in the embodiment of the utility model. In order to achieve a lightweight design of the locking mechanism 100, the interior of the guide block 211 can be a hollow structure.

[0066] In addition, a support bar can be provided in the guide groove 12, and the support bar can abut against the guide block 211. The support bar can support the key body 21 through the guide block 211 to limit the key body 21 and prevent the key body 21 from moving in a direction perpendicular to the plane where the first direction X and the second direction Y are located.

[0067] In addition, in some embodiments, Fig.13 As shown, a first limiting portion 13 may also be provided in the housing 10 . The first limiting portion 13 is opposite to at least a portion of the button body 21 and is used to limit the movement of the button body 21 .

[0068] A first limiting portion 13 is also provided in the shell 10. Since the first limiting portion 13 is opposite to at least a part of the button body 21, the first limiting portion 13 can limit the movement of the button body 21. Specifically, a second mounting hole extending along the second direction Y can be provided on the shell 10, and the button body 21 can be embedded in the second mounting hole. When the user presses the button body 21, the button body 21 can move in the second mounting hole. Since the first limiting portion 13 is opposite to at least a part of the button body 21, when the button body 21 is pressed, the button body 21 can abut against the first limiting portion 13, thereby preventing the button body 21 from continuing to move into the shell 10, thereby preventing the problem of pressing the button body 21 as a whole into the shell 10.

[0069] In addition, in some embodiments, Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 6As shown, at least one locking member 30 may include a first locking member 31 and a second locking member 32, and the first locking member 31 and the second locking member 32 are arranged at intervals along the first direction X; a matching structure 40 is provided between the first locking member 31, the second locking member 32 and the button assembly 20, and the button assembly 20 can drive the first locking member 31 and the second locking member 32 to move through the matching structure 40, so that the locking mechanism 100 can switch between a locked state or an unlocked state.

[0070] At least one locking member 30 includes a first locking member 31 and a second locking member 32, and the first locking member 31 and the second locking member 32 are arranged at intervals along the first direction X, wherein a matching structure 40 is arranged between the first locking member 31 and the key assembly 20, and between the second locking member 32 and the key assembly 20, so that the key assembly 20 can drive the first locking member 31 and the second locking member 32 to move through the matching structure 40, so that the first locking member 31 and the second locking member 32 can both extend from the housing 10, so that the locking mechanism 100 is in a locked state, or the first locking member 31 and the second locking member 32 can both retract into the housing 10, so that the locking mechanism 100 is in an unlocked state. The first locking member 31 and the second locking member 32 are arranged at intervals along the first direction X, and the first locking member 31 and the second locking member 32 are opposite to each other, so that when the locking mechanism 100 is in a locked state, the first locking member 31 and the second locking member 32 can extend from different directions to cooperate with the matching member 200, which can improve the reliability of the locking mechanism 100.

[0071] It should be noted that the number of the first locking member 31 and the second locking member 32 can both be multiple, and the multiple first locking members 31 can be spaced apart along the second direction Y, and the multiple second locking members 32 can be spaced apart along the second direction Y, so that the locking mechanism 100 can extend more out of the housing 10 in the locked state, thereby increasing the reliability of the locking of the locking mechanism 100. The number of the first locking member 31 and the second locking member 32 can be 2, 3, 4, 5, etc., and the specific numerical values ​​of the number of the first locking member 31 and the second locking member 32 are not specifically limited in the embodiment of the utility model.

[0072] In addition, in some embodiments, Figure 2 , Figure 6 As shown, the locking mechanism 100 may also include a guide shaft 33 and a second elastic member 34, wherein the first end of the guide shaft 33 is connected to one of the first locking member 31 and the second locking member 32, the second end of the guide shaft 33 is passed through and slidably connected to the other of the first locking member 31 and the second locking member 32, the second elastic member 34 is sleeved on the guide shaft 33, and one end of the second elastic member 34 is respectively abutted against the first locking member 31, and the other end is abutted against the second locking member 32.

[0073] The locking mechanism 100 further includes a guide shaft 33 and a second elastic member 34. The guide shaft 33 and the second elastic member 34 can connect the first locking member 31 and the second locking member 32 and guide the first locking member 31 and the second locking member 32. Specifically, the first end of the guide shaft 33 is connected to one of the first locking member 31 and the second locking member 32, the second end of the guide shaft 33 is passed through and slidably connected to the other of the first locking member 31 and the second locking member 32, the second elastic member 34 is sleeved on the guide shaft 33, and one end of the second elastic member 34 abuts against the first locking member 31 and the other end abuts against the second locking member 32. When the locking mechanism 100 is in the unlocked state, the first locking member 31 and the second locking member 32 are close to each other, so that the second elastic member 34 is in a compressed state; after the user cancels the pressing of the button assembly 20, the button assembly 20 can move toward the outside of the shell 10 under the action of the first elastic member 23, and the button assembly 20 can drive the first locking member 31 and the second locking member 32 to move through the matching structure 40. At the same time, the first locking member 31 and the second locking member 32 can also move under the elastic force of the second elastic member 34, thereby improving the response speed of the first locking member 31 and the second locking member 32.

[0074] In addition, in some embodiments, Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the locking mechanism 100 may also include a keycap 51, a mounting column 52 and a third elastic member 53. The keycap 51 is passed through the shell 10 along the second direction Y and is slidably connected to the shell 10. One end of the mounting column 52 is connected to the keycap 51. A second mounting portion 14 is provided in the shell 10. The other end of the mounting column 52 is guided and connected to the second mounting portion 14. The third elastic member 53 is sleeved on the mounting column 52, and one end of the third elastic member 53 abuts against the keycap 51, and the other end abuts against the second mounting portion 14.

[0075] The locking mechanism 100 also includes a keycap 51, a mounting column 52 and a third elastic member 53, wherein the keycap 51 is inserted into the housing 10 along the second direction Y and is slidable relative to the housing 10, so that the locking mechanism 100 can act on the mating member 200 through the keycap 51. A second mounting portion 14 is provided in the shell 10, and the mounting column 52 is guided and connected to the second mounting portion 14, and the third elastic member 53 is sleeved on the mounting column 52. Since one end of the third elastic member 53 abuts against the keycap 51, and the other end abuts against the second mounting portion 14, therefore, when the locking member 30 cooperates with the mating member 200, the mating member 200 can press the key body 21, and the key body 21 can squeeze the third elastic member 53. At this time, the third elastic member 53 is compressed and can store elastic potential energy. When the locking mechanism 100 is in an unlocked state, the locking mechanism 100 and the mating member 200 are unlocked. At this time, the third elastic member 53 can release the elastic potential energy and restore at least part of the deformation, so that the third elastic member 53 can drive the key body 21 to move, so that the key body 21 extends out of the shell 10, so that the shell 10 can be popped out to remove the locking mechanism 100.

[0076] It should be noted that the expansion and contraction direction of the third elastic member 53 may be consistent with the first direction X, so that the keycap 51 may be movable along the first direction X, thereby preventing the movement of the keycap 51 from affecting the movement of the locking member 30 .

[0077] A locking groove 201 is provided on the mating member 200 at a position corresponding to the locking member 30. When the locking mechanism 100 is used and the locking member 30 is in a locked state, the locking member 30 extends from the housing 10 and can be embedded in the locking groove 201. The locking member 30 is engaged with the housing 10, and the surface of the housing 10 on which the key cap 51 is disposed can abut against the mating member 200. Figure 7 , Figure 8 , Fig. 9 As shown in FIG. 2 , when the user operates the key assembly 20 to retract the locking member 30 into the housing 10, the locking member 30 disengages from the locking groove 201. At this time, the locking member 30 and the housing 10 are no longer engaged with each other. The third elastic member 53 can apply a force along the second direction Y to the housing 10 through the key cap 51. The third elastic member 53 can drive the key cap 51 to move, and push the housing 10 out of the mating member 200. Fig.10 , Fig.11 , Fig.12 shown.

[0078] In the case where the housing 10 includes the base 16 and the cover plate 17, in order to facilitate the installation of the keycap 51, a third installation hole extending along the second direction can also be provided on the groove wall of the installation groove, and the side of the keycap 51 away from the installation column 52 can be movably inserted and slidably connected to the third installation hole. That is, the keycap 51 can be located in the installation cavity, and the keycap 51 can slide in the third installation hole to push the housing 10.

[0079] In addition, in some embodiments, Figure 2 , Fig.10 As shown, a second baffle 141 is disposed in the housing 10 , the second baffle 141 forms the second mounting portion 14 , a second guide hole 142 is disposed on the second baffle 141 , and the other end of the mounting column 52 passes through and is slidably connected to the second guide hole 142 .

[0080] A second baffle 141 is provided in the housing 10, and the second baffle 141 can form the above-mentioned second mounting portion 14, and is connected to the mounting column 52 for guiding. Specifically, a second guide hole 142 can be provided on the second baffle 141, and the other end of the mounting column 52 is passed through the second guide hole 142. Since the mounting column 52 is slidable relative to the second guide hole 142, when the mating member 200 presses the keycap 51, the mounting column 52 can be driven to move, so that the mounting column 52 can move in the second guide hole 142 and compress the third elastic member 53 to store elastic potential energy so that the keycap 51 can be reset later.

[0081] The mounting post 52 is inserted into the second guide hole 142, and the second guide hole 142 can guide the movement of the mounting post 52, so that the mounting post 52 can move along the axial direction of the second guide hole 142, and then guide the extension direction of the third elastic member 53, so as to avoid the third elastic member 53 from bending, deflecting and other problems during the extension process. In the embodiment of the utility model, the axial direction of the second guide hole 142 is consistent with the second direction Y.

[0082] In addition, in some embodiments, Fig.13 As shown, a second limiting portion 15 may also be provided in the housing 10 . The second limiting portion 15 is opposite to at least a portion of the key cap 51 to limit the movement of the key cap 51 .

[0083] The housing 10 is also provided with a second limiting portion 15. Since the second limiting portion 15 is opposite to at least a part of the keycap 51, the second limiting portion 15 can limit the movement of the keycap 51. Specifically, when the mating member 200 or other components press the keycap 51, the keycap 51 can move in the third mounting hole. Since the second limiting portion 15 is opposite to at least a part of the keycap 51, when the keycap 51 is pressed, the keycap 51 can abut against the second limiting portion 15, thereby preventing the keycap 51 from continuing to move into the housing 10 and preventing the keycap 51 from being pressed into the housing 10 as a whole.

[0084] It should be noted that the first elastic member 23, the second elastic member 34, and the third elastic member 53 may be springs, or may be hollow structures made of elastic materials, or may be spring sheets, etc. The present utility model does not specifically limit the specific types of the first elastic member 23, the second elastic member 34, and the third elastic member 53. In order to facilitate the installation of the first elastic member 23 and the third elastic member 53, a first gasket 231 may be provided at one end of the first elastic member 23 abutting against the first mounting portion 11, and a second gasket 531 may be provided at one end of the third elastic member 53 abutting against the second mounting portion 14.

[0085] In the embodiment of the utility model, the locking mechanism 100 includes a button assembly 20, a locking member 30, etc. The locking mechanism 100 works in a mechanical transmission mode, can withstand high mechanical strength, and can withstand high strength. In addition, the locking mechanism 100 proposed in the embodiment of the utility model can also adjust the size of each part according to the actual use conditions to adapt to different scenes, which can further improve the versatility of the locking mechanism 100. In addition, the arrangement of the first elastic member 23, the second elastic member 34, and the third elastic member 53 in the transmission of the locking mechanism 100 can also effectively avoid abnormal noise and improve the user's comfort.

[0086] In the embodiment of the utility model, the locking mechanism 100 includes a housing 10, a key assembly 20 and at least one locking member 30, wherein the locking member 30 is movably connected to the housing 10 along a first direction X, and the key assembly 20 is movably connected to the housing 10 along a second direction Y, and the first direction X intersects with the second direction Y, so the key assembly 20 and the locking member 30 can move in different directions in the housing 10. Since a matching structure 40 is provided between the locking member 30 and the key assembly 20, when the key assembly 20 moves, it can drive the locking member 30 to move through the matching structure 40, so that the locking mechanism 100 can be switched between a locked state and an unlocked state, and the locking function or unlocking function of the locking mechanism 100 is realized by the movement of the locking member 30. That is, in the embodiment of the utility model, the locking member 30 can move in the housing 10, and at least a part of the locking member 30 can be used as a part that matches with the matching member 200 to realize the locking function or unlocking function of the locking mechanism 100. Since the present application realizes the locking function or unlocking function of the locking mechanism 100 by moving the locking piece 30, the engagement amount of the locking mechanism 100 and the matching piece 200 can be controlled by setting the extended length of the locking piece 30, thereby avoiding the solution of setting two hooks to clamp and hold the matching piece 200 in the prior art, thereby also avoiding the problem of small engagement amount when the hook and the matching piece 200 are matched, which can improve the locking effect of the locking mechanism 100 and increase the usage scenarios of the locking mechanism 100.

[0087] In addition, the embodiment of the utility model further proposes a key structure, which includes a matching piece 200 and the locking mechanism 100 in any of the above embodiments. The matching piece 200 is provided with a locking groove 201 at a position corresponding to the locking piece 30. When the locking piece 30 is in a locked state, the locking piece 30 at least partially extends into the locking groove 201. Figure 7 , Figure 8 , Fig. 9 shown.

[0088] The key structure includes a matching piece 200 and a locking mechanism 100. A locking groove 201 is provided on the matching piece 200 at a position corresponding to the locking piece 30. When the locking piece 30 is in a locked state, at least a portion of the locking piece 30 extends into the locking groove 201, and the locking piece 30 can lock the matching piece 200 through the locking groove 201. The present application realizes the locking function or unlocking function of the locking mechanism 100 by moving the locking piece 30, and the engagement amount of the locking mechanism 100 and the matching piece 200 can be controlled by setting the extended length of the locking piece 30, thereby avoiding the solution of setting two hooks to clamp and hold the matching piece 200 in the prior art, thereby avoiding the problem of a small engagement amount when the hook and the matching piece 200 cooperate, thereby improving the locking effect of the locking mechanism 100 and increasing the use scenarios of the locking mechanism 100.

[0089] In addition, in some embodiments, Figure 7 , Fig.10 As shown, the mating piece 200 includes a mating piece body 202, a receiving groove 203 is provided in the mating piece body 202, the locking mechanism 100 is placed in the receiving groove 203, and the button assembly 20 faces the notch of the receiving groove 203, and the groove wall of the receiving groove 203 is provided with a locking groove 201 at a position corresponding to the locking piece 30.

[0090] The matching piece 200 includes a matching piece body 202, on which a receiving groove 203 is provided, and the locking mechanism 100 is placed in the receiving groove 203, that is, the matching piece body 202 can cover at least part of the housing 10. The groove wall of the receiving groove 203 is provided with a locking groove 201 at a position corresponding to the locking piece 30, that is, the locking groove 201 is opposite to the position of the locking piece 30, so that the locking piece 30 can be driven to move by the key assembly 20, so that the locking piece 30 cooperates with the locking groove 201, and the locking mechanism 100 and the matching piece 200 are locked. When setting the locking mechanism 100 to cooperate with the matching piece 200, the user can first operate the key assembly 20 to put the locking piece 30 in an unlocked state. At this time, the user can push the locking mechanism 100 into the inside of the matching piece body 202, so that the locking piece 30 is opposite to the locking groove 201, and then the force applied to the key assembly 20 can be cancelled. At this time, the first elastic piece 23 can drive the key assembly 20 to move along the second direction Y, and drive the locking piece 30 to extend from the shell 10 in a locked state. Since the locking groove 201 is relative to the locking piece 30, the locking piece 30 can be embedded in the locking groove 201 after being extended to complete the locking.

[0091] In addition, the embodiment of the utility model further proposes a key product 300 , which includes the locking mechanism 100 in the above embodiment or the key structure in the above embodiment, and can improve the locking effect of the key product 300 .
