Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of timers, in particular to a timer timing adjustment wheel. Background Art

[0002] The head wheel assembly in the timer is the core component of the timer, which consists of the head wheel shaft, head wheel and friction plate. When the timer is rotating, the friction plate should keep rotating synchronously with the head wheel. When the timer is manually adjusting the time, there is sliding friction between the friction plate and the head wheel, that is, the head wheel does not rotate, but the head wheel shaft and friction plate rotate. This requires that the friction between the friction plate and the gear is neither too large nor too small. If the friction is too large, the head wheel will rotate with the friction plate when adjusting the time; if the friction is too small, when the timer starts timing, the head wheel cannot drive the friction plate to rotate synchronously, and the friction plate is easy to fall off.

[0003] At present, the friction plate of the existing timer head wheel assembly is generally combined by pressing with a gasket, but this combination method is structurally unstable. If the gasket is pressed too tightly, it is difficult to generate sliding friction between the friction plate and the gear; if it is too loose, the gasket and the friction plate are prone to dislocation or falling off during rotation. In addition, since the materials of the existing head wheel and the friction plate are different, there is a large sense of sticking between the head wheel and the friction plate when the head wheel shaft is rotated, which is prone to poor rotation.

[0004] In view of this, the inventor conducted in-depth research on the above-mentioned issues, which led to the creation of this case. Utility Model Content

[0008] Furthermore, the two sides of the top end of the head wheel shaft are concave to form two parallel cutting edges, and the two cutting edges are the above-mentioned reduced diameter sections; the above-mentioned fixing plate includes a cross arm and an expansion arm protruding from the same end of the cross arm and parallel to each other, and the interval between the above-mentioned expansion arms is the above-mentioned opening groove, and the front part of the two expansion arms has an expansion section with a trumpet-shaped opening, and the rear part of the expansion section is provided with a limiting section for abutting against the two cutting edges.

[0009] Furthermore, the positioning protrusions are respectively provided on the front and rear of the expansion arms.

[0010] Furthermore, the positioning groove is semicircular, elliptical or rectangular, and the shape of the positioning protrusion is consistent with the shape of the positioning groove.

[0014] Furthermore, the head wheel and the friction plate are both provided with a second connecting hole for being mounted on the head wheel shaft.

The bottom surface of the head wheel 20 is provided with a friction plate assembly for fixing the head wheel 20. The friction plate assembly includes a friction plate 30 and a fixing plate 40 both in the form of long strips. The length direction of the friction plate 30 and the fixing plate 40 is the front-to-back direction. The friction plate 30 is made of the same material as the head wheel 20. In the present invention, In the embodiment, the friction plate 30 and the head wheel 20 are both made of copper. Of course, aluminum alloy or plastic material can also be used according to the situation. The top surface of the friction plate 30 abuts against the head wheel 20, and the left and right sides of the bottom surface are convexly provided with convex edges 31 for limiting the left and right deviation of the fixing plate 40. One end of the fixing plate 40 is open and has an open groove 41 for snapping into the reduced diameter section 11, and the side of the friction plate 30 facing the fixing plate 40 is concavely provided with a plurality of positioning grooves 32, and the side of the fixing plate 40 facing the friction plate 30 is convexly provided with a plurality of positioning protrusions 431 for snapping into the positioning grooves 32.

[0030] When in use, the head wheel 20, the friction plate 30 and the fixed plate 40 are installed on the head wheel shaft 10 in sequence, and when installing the fixed plate 40, the positioning protrusion 431 of the fixed plate 40 is correspondingly inserted into the positioning groove 32 of the friction plate 30, thereby improving the stability of the combination of the fixed plate 40 and the friction plate 30, and the convex edges 31 on the left and right sides of the bottom surface of the friction plate 30 can also prevent the fixed plate 40 from being offset or dislocated after the head wheel shaft 10 is rotated multiple times.

[0031] Reference Figures 1 to 5The two sides of the top of the head wheel shaft 10 are concave to form two parallel cutting edges, the two cutting edges are the above-mentioned reduced diameter section 11, and the side wall of the head wheel shaft 10 is also convexly provided with a stop block 13, the stop block 13 is used to abut against the limiting part (not shown in the figure) inside the timer (not shown in the figure), the head wheel 20 and the friction plate 30 are both provided with a first connecting hole 501 for passing through the head wheel shaft 10 and the stop block 13, the fixing plate 40 includes a cross arm 42 and an expansion arm 43 convexly provided at the same end of the cross arm 42 and parallel to each other, the interval between the two expansion arms 43 is the above-mentioned opening groove 41, and the front part of the two expansion arms 43 has an expansion section with a trumpet-shaped opening 432, the minimum distance between the expansion sections 432 is greater than the maximum diameter at the above-mentioned diameter-reducing section 11, so that the diameter-reducing section 11 can enter from the expansion section 432, and the rear portion of the expansion section 432 is provided with a limiting section 433 for abutting against the two above-mentioned cutting edges, and the limiting sections 433 are respectively recessed toward the expansion arms 43 where they are located, so that they can be clamped on the diameter-reducing section 11 of the head wheel shaft 10, and because there is a certain height difference between the limiting section 433 and the expansion section 432, that is, a stop portion 434 is formed at the rear end of the expansion section 432, and the stop portion 434 can prevent the fixing plate 40 from moving in the front-to-back direction after the fixing plate 40 is clamped into the diameter-reducing section 11.

[0032] Reference Figures 1 to 5 The positioning protrusions 431 are respectively protruded at the front and rear of the expansion arm 43. In the present embodiment, the positioning groove 32 is semicircular, elliptical or rectangular. The shape of the positioning protrusion 431 is consistent with the shape of the positioning groove 32. Through such a setting, the fixing plate 40 and the friction plate 30 can be prevented from loosening or falling off during long-term use.

[0033] The second embodiment of the present invention is substantially the same as the first embodiment, except that Figures 1 to 8 The stopper 12 is arranged on the bottom surface of the reduced diameter section 11, and the head wheel 20 and the friction plate 30 are both provided with a second connecting hole for being mounted on the head wheel shaft 10. Since the reduced diameter section 11 is concave, grooves are formed on both sides of the head wheel shaft 10. When the head wheel 20, the friction plate 30 and the fixing plate 40 are installed on the head wheel shaft 10 in sequence, the bottom surface of the head wheel 20 abuts against the top surface of the stopper 12, and the top surface of the fixing plate 40 abuts against the top surface of the groove formed by the concave portion of the reduced diameter section 11, thereby achieving the purpose of fixing the head wheel 20.

[0034] Reference Figures 1 to 8The utility model has a plurality of positioning grooves 32 concavely arranged on the friction plate 30, and a plurality of positioning protrusions 431 for snapping into the positioning grooves 32 are convexly arranged on the side of the fixed plate 40 facing the friction plate 30, and convex edges 31 are convexly arranged on both sides of the side of the friction plate 30 facing the fixed plate 40 to prevent the fixed plate 40 from deflecting, thereby improving the stability of the combination of the fixed plate 40 and the friction plate 30, avoiding the misalignment or falling off of the fixed plate 40 and the friction plate 30 during long-term use, and the head wheel 20 and the friction plate 30 of the utility model are made of the same material, and the friction resistance is small when rotating, which improves the smoothness of the timer when rotating and has a better feel.

[0035] The above is only a specific implementation method of the utility model, but the design concept of the utility model is not limited to this. Any non-substantial changes to the utility model using this concept shall be deemed as an infringement of the protection scope of the utility model.
