[0021] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the utility model clearer, the utility model is further described in detail below in combination with specific implementation methods and with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that the embodiments of the utility model and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict.
[0022] It should be understood that these descriptions are exemplary only and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.
[0023] Reference Figures 1 to 7A retractable and portable softball bat comprises a bat body 1, which can be made of relatively light aluminum, or can also be made of materials such as wood or carbon fiber. The bat body 1 comprises a bat head 11 and a handle 12. The interior of the bat head 11 is hollow to form a receiving cavity, and the two ends are open to respectively provide an upper opening 111 and a lower opening 112. The upper end of the handle 12 is detachably connected to the lower end of the bat head 11, and a shrinkage structure is provided at the upper end of the handle 12 and the lower end of the bat head 11, and the inner diameter of the lower opening 112 is smaller than the outer diameter of the upper end of the handle 12; the inner diameter of the upper opening 111 is larger than the outer diameter of the upper end of the handle 12. The bat body of this embodiment is composed of a detachable bat head and a handle, and the handle is installed in the accommodating cavity of the bat head. When in use, the handle is pulled out of the accommodating cavity of the bat head, and when stored, the handle is pushed back into the accommodating cavity. This bat body structure can shrink the handle into the bat head, which can reduce the volume of the softball bat when stored, making the softball bat more convenient to carry.
[0024] The length of the handle 12 is greater than the length of the accommodating cavity, so that the lower end of the handle 12 extends out of the club head 11. The length of the handle is longer than the length of the accommodating cavity, and the end of the handle is always exposed outside the club head, which is convenient for the user to hold the end of the handle and pull it out.
[0025] A top cover 13 is installed in the upper opening 111 of the bat head 11. The edge of the top cover 13 is recessed toward the center to form a recessed portion. The top cover 13 is fixed to the top of the bat head 11 by interference fit. After assembly, the recessed portion is located in the receiving cavity of the bat head 11. When assembling a softball bat, the top cover is removed, the lower end of the handle is inserted into the bat head from the upper opening, and after the handle is completely placed in the receiving cavity, the top cover is installed in the upper opening of the bat head to complete the assembly.
[0026] Two protrusions 121 extend from both sides of the upper end of the handle 12, and a slide groove 113 is provided on the inner wall of the club head 11, and the protrusion 121 slides into the slide groove 113 to fix the handle 12 to the lower end of the club head 11; the slide groove 113 is composed of a guide groove 114, a transverse groove 115 connected to the guide groove 114, and a positioning groove 116 located at the bottom, wherein the guide groove 114 and the positioning groove 116 are arranged vertically, and the transverse groove 115 is arranged in the horizontal direction, one end of the transverse groove 115 is connected to the lower end of the guide groove 114, and the other end is connected to the upper end of the positioning groove 116. When using the baseball bat, hold the handle and align the protrusion on the upper end of the handle with the guide groove on the club head, pull the handle downward until the bottom of the protrusion is against the transverse groove, then rotate the baseball bat to make the protrusion rotate along the extension direction of the transverse groove to the notch of the positioning groove, then hold the handle and pull it downward to make the protrusion fall into the positioning groove to complete the fixation of the handle.
[0027] An annular anti-slip portion 122 is extended outward from the lower end of the handle 12. The outer diameter of the anti-slip portion is larger than the outer diameter of the handle. When the user uses the softball bat, it is inevitable that the user's hands may slip and the softball bat may fall out of the user's hands. By providing an anti-slip portion with an outer diameter larger than the handle, when the softball bat falls out of the user's hands, the anti-slip portion has a thicker outer diameter and will be resisted by the palm of the user to prevent the softball bat from falling out of the user's hands.
[0028] A rubber sleeve 14 is installed at the connection between the club head 11 and the handle 12. The rubber sleeve can be made of common elastic materials such as silicone. In this embodiment, the rubber sleeve is installed at the joint between the club head and the handle, and the friction between the rubber sleeve and the club body is used to make the club head and the handle more firmly fixed, and at the same time, the joint can be covered to make the product more beautiful as a whole.
