[0017] The present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0018] The utility model discloses a turn signal transmission guide rail mechanism for an electric luggage box, Figures 1 to 5As shown, it includes a pull rod sleeve 1, a pull rod 2 and a handle 3, the pull rod 2 is inserted into the pull rod sleeve 1 and the two are slidably matched up and down, the handle 3 is fixed to the upper end of the pull rod 2, a steering control board 30 is provided in the handle 3, and a steering control device 31 electrically connected to the steering control board 30 is provided on the handle 3, a probe plate 4 is fixed to the outer wall of the pull rod 2, the probe plate 4 is arranged at the lower end of the pull rod 2, and two probes 40 electrically connected to the steering control board 30 are provided on the probe plate 4, a strip guide rail 5 is fixed to the inner wall of the pull rod sleeve 1, the strip guide rail 5 extends along the length direction of the pull rod sleeve 1, two electric contact rails are provided on the strip guide rail 5, the electric contact rails extend along the length direction of the strip guide rail 5, the probes 40 correspond to the electric contact rails one by one and abut against each other, and the electric contact rails are electrically connected to the main control panel of the electric suitcase.
[0019] In the above structure, the handle 3 is fixed to the upper end of the pull rod 2, and the lower end of the pull rod 2 is inserted into the pull rod sleeve 1 and the two slide together up and down, thereby realizing the basic mechanism of the telescopic pull rod. On this basis, the utility model has a strip guide rail 5 fixed to the inner wall of the pull rod sleeve 1, and the two electric contact rails on the strip guide rail 5 are electrically connected to the main control panel of the electric suitcase. Correspondingly, a probe plate 4 is fixed to the outer wall of the pull rod 2, and the two probes 40 on the probe plate 4 are respectively kept in contact with the two electric contact rails. Since the two probes 40 are electrically connected to the steering control board 30, the steering An electrical connection path is formed between the control board 30 and the main control board of the electric suitcase. The user can send a steering control signal to the main control board by operating the steering control device 31. Because the strip guide rail 5 extends along the length direction of the pull rod sleeve 1, when the user holds the handle 3 and pulls the pull rod 2, the two probes 40 can maintain contact with the two electrical contact rails in real time. Compared with the connection method using wires in the prior art, the utility model can avoid position interference between the excessively long wires and the pull rod 2, which can not only ensure smooth extension and retraction of the pull rod, but also make the electrical connection more reliable, thereby better meeting application requirements.
[0020] In this embodiment, a wire is inserted into the pull rod 2, and the wire is electrically connected between the two probes 40 and the steering control board 30. The wire in the pull rod 2 is not affected by the extension and contraction of the pull rod 2, and is only used to connect the two probes 40 and the steering control board 30.
[0021] In order to make the outer surface of the pull rod 2 smooth, the probe plate 4 is preferably hidden in this embodiment. Figure 1 The outer wall of the pull rod 2 is provided with a first receiving groove 20 , and the probe plate 4 is fixed in the first receiving groove 20 .
[0022] See also Figure 3 In order to prevent the strip guide rail 5 from protruding outward, in this embodiment, the inner wall of the pull rod sleeve 1 is provided with a second accommodating groove 10, and the strip guide rail 5 is embedded in the second accommodating groove 10. In practical applications, two electrical contact rails are longitudinally connected to the upper and lower ends of the strip guide rail 5, and the electrical contact rails can be copper-plated printed on the strip guide rail 5, or can be metal conductive strips embedded in the strip guide rail 5.
[0023] In order to realize the limiting engagement function between the pull rod 2 and the pull rod sleeve 1, in this embodiment, an elastic button 32 is provided on the top of the handle 3, and the lower end of the elastic button 32 is connected to a limiting rod 33. A support 21 is fixed to the lower end of the pull rod 2, and a slider 22 capable of laterally elastic sliding is provided in the support 21. A limiting end 23 is provided at the end of the slider 22, and the limiting end 23 passes through the support 21 and the side wall of the pull rod 2 in turn. A limiting hole 11 is provided on the pull rod sleeve 1 for the limiting end 23 to pass through, and the slider A wedge-shaped recess 24 is provided at the top of the limit rod 33, and a wedge-shaped tongue 34 is fixed to the lower end of the limit rod 33. The wedge-shaped tongue 34 is aligned with the wedge-shaped recess 24 up and down and the inclined surfaces of the two are arranged opposite to each other. When the elastic button 32 is pressed, the limit rod 33 and the wedge-shaped tongue 34 are driven to move downward, and the inclined surface of the wedge-shaped tongue 34 contacts the inclined surface of the wedge-shaped recess 24, and drives the slider 22 to retract into the support 21. When the elastic button 32 is released, the slider 22 elastically slides outward to allow the limit end 23 to pass through the limit hole 11.
[0024] Furthermore, a spring 25 is disposed in the support 21 , and the spring 25 elastically abuts against an end of the slider 22 away from the limiting end 23 .
[0025] In the above mechanism, when the user does not press the elastic button 32, the spring 25 applies a lateral elastic force to the slider 22, driving the slider 22 to slide outward, and the limit end 23 can abut against the inner avoidance of the pull rod sleeve 1. When the pull rod 2 is stretched to the right position and the limit hole 11 is aligned with the limit end 23, the limit end 23 passes through the limit hole 11 and achieves the limit effect. When the user presses the elastic button 32, the wedge-shaped tongue 34 drives the slider 22 to slide inward by cooperating with the wedge-shaped recess 24, and the limit end 23 withdraws from the limit hole 11. At this time, the pull rod 2 can slide up and down. Based on the above principle, the utility model realizes the telescopic limit function of the pull rod 2 with simple and reliable components.
[0026] In practical applications, the pull rod sleeve 1 is provided with two upper and lower limiting holes 11 .
[0027] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions or improvements made within the technical scope of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
