[0024] In order to more clearly understand the above-mentioned purpose, features and advantages of the utility model, the utility model is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be noted that the embodiments of the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict.
[0025] In the following description, many specific details are set forth to facilitate a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways than those described herein. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments of the following disclosure.
[0026] like Figure 1-7 As shown, an adjustable tape measure includes a tape measure body 1 and a fixing seat 2 installed at one end of the tape measure. The fixing seat 2 is fixed relative to the bottom surface to ensure that when the shell part of the tape measure body 1 is moved, the tape measure that is forced to be pulled out will not retract or shake:
[0027] Two T-shaped through-grooves 13 are symmetrically provided on the inner bottom surface of the fixed seat 2, and two symmetrically arranged L-shaped rotating arms 9 are installed in the through-grooves 13. One end of the rotating arm 9 is fixedly connected to a connecting arm 16, and the opposite sides of the two rotating arms 9 are arranged in a plug-in state, that is, to ensure that the two rotating arms 9 can be simultaneously swung downward and reset under the action of elastic force: the inner bottom surface of the fixed seat 2 is located at the proximal end of the two through-grooves 13 and is rotatably connected to connecting gears 10, and four rotating arms 9 are arranged in pairs at two connecting gears 10 respectively, and the two connecting gears 10 rotate in opposite directions and at the same speed. By utilizing the two connecting gears 10 to rotate at the same speed and in the opposite direction, the connecting arm 16 in the initial state can drive the rotating arm 9 to overcome the elastic force and swing toward the fixed seat 2 until entering the through-grooves. The connecting gear 10 can be rotated to realize that the connecting arm 16 and the rotating arm 9 rotate out of the through-slot 13 under the action of elastic reset to provide resistance, so as to prevent the rotating arm 9 and the connecting arm 16 from instantly escaping from the through-slot 13: the inner bottom surface of the fixed seat 2 is also rotatably connected with a transmission gear 15 meshing with one of the connecting gears 10, and the opposite end surfaces of the other connecting gear 10 and the transmission gear 15 extend outward, and the inner wall of the fixed seat 2 is plugged with a plug plate 8, and the bottom surface of the plug plate 8 is provided with a tooth surface 12 meshing with the extension of the other connecting gear 10 and the transmission gear 15, and the extension length of the tooth surface 12 is one-fourth of the arc length of the connecting gear 10, and the plug plate 8 is used to slide, and the tooth surface 12 is used to mesh with the corresponding connecting gear 10 and the transmission gear 15. The left connecting gear 10 and the transmission gear 15 are connected in a meshing connection, so that the connecting gear 10 and the transmission gear 15 on the left side rotate at the same speed, and the connecting gear 10 on the right side rotates in the opposite direction at the same speed as the transmission gear 15 under the action of the meshing connection. In addition, the extended ends of the left connecting gear 10 and the transmission gear 15 are provided to prevent the tooth surface 12 from contacting and engaging with the tooth surface of the right connecting gear 10, and the extended length of the tooth surface 12 is one-fourth of the arc length of the connecting gear 10. When the tooth surface 12 rotates to disengage from the left connecting gear 10 or the transmission gear 15, the connecting arm 16 and the rotating arm 9 just rotate ninety degrees, and at this time, the connecting arm 16 and the rotating arm 9 themselves are not affected by the elastic force: the top surface of the plug plate 8 is fixed A slider 3 extending to the outside of the fixed seat 2 is connected, and the top surface of the fixed seat 2 is set to a hollow shape slidably connected to the slider 3. The personnel realize that the fixed seat 2 drives the plug plate 8 to slide by toggling the slider 3: the two connecting arms 16 in any group are respectively arranged on both sides of the connecting gear 10, and the connecting arm 16 is rotatably connected to the end face of the connecting gear 10 through a spring, and the end face of the connecting gear 10 and the fixed seat 2 are connected through a retaining spring, and the side face of the spring is arranged parallel to the side face of the connecting gear 10. Therefore, the significance of the spring is to achieve the state that the side face of the connecting arm 16 remains parallel to the end face of the connecting gear 10 by applying a pulling force, and under the elastic force of the spring, it is ensured that when the connecting arm 16 and the rotating arm 9 are rotated downward by ninety degrees, the two rotating arms 9 will not separate, and the retaining spring is arranged at Figure 3The state in the middle is an elastically opened state, so the significance of setting the retaining spring is that after the connecting gear 10 drives the connecting arm 16 and the rotating arm 9 to rotate ninety degrees, the retaining spring elastically resets, and the tension of the retaining spring is used to prevent the connecting arm 16 and the rotating arm 9 from shaking, and after the connecting arm 16 and the rotating arm 9 rotate ninety degrees, because the tooth surface 12 is not in contact with the connecting gear 10 and the transmission gear 15, the insert plate 8 can continue to slide without causing the connecting gear 10 to rotate: the inner wall of the through groove 13 is located at the position of the connecting gear 10 and is provided with a retaining groove 14 for sliding connection with the connecting arm 16, and the positions on both sides of the insert plate 8 near the connecting gear 10 are symmetrically fixed There are two blocks 11 connected to the fixed connection, and the side of the block 11 facing the plug plate 8 is set with an inclined surface, and the inclined surface of the block 11 is used to toggle the connecting arm 16. The two rotating arms 9 and the connecting arm 16 rotate with the center line of the connecting gear 10 as the center of the circle, and after rotating a certain angle, they swing in opposite directions until they are inserted into the soil. After the connecting arm 16 and the rotating arm 9 rotate ninety degrees, when the plug plate 8 continues to slide, the inclined surface of the block 11 contacts the surface of the rotating connecting arm 16, and under the pushing action of the inclined surface, the end faces of the two connecting arms 16 at the connecting gear 10 are forced to overcome the elastic force of the spring piece and approach each other, thereby realizing that the connecting arm 16 drives the rotating arm 9 to swing to the position as shown in the figure. Figure 6 The state shown is that after being embedded in the ground, it is inserted obliquely into the ground.
[0028] In addition: two arc grooves 4 are symmetrically opened on the outer wall of the fixed seat 2, and a sliding seat 7 is slidably connected in the arc groove 4, and a fitting plate 5 is installed at the bottom edge of the middle part of the sliding seat 7 and the outer wall of the fixed seat 2, and a screw 6 is arranged between the fitting plate 5 and the end of the tape measure body 1. By sliding the sliding seat 7 until the three sliding seats 7 are on the same horizontal line, the fixed seat 2 can be fixed to the flat tape by the screw 6, and the position of the sliding seat 7 can be adjusted by sliding the arc groove 4 so that the three fitting plates 5 are distributed in an arc shape, and the fixed seat 2 can be fixed to the curved tape by the screw 6.
[0029] Working principle: fix the fixing seat 2 at the end of the tape. When in use, fit the fixing seat 2 to the ground and press it, and move the slider 3 to realize that the fixing seat 2 drives the plug plate 8 to move, and then the tooth surface 12 moves, and the tooth surface 12 drives the connecting gear 10 and the transmission gear 15 on the left to rotate ninety degrees, so that the connecting gear 10 on the right rotates in the same speed and in the opposite direction, so that the connecting arm 16 can drive the rotating arm 9 to rotate ninety degrees until it is embedded in the ground. After rotating ninety degrees, the tooth surface 12 is disengaged from the tooth surfaces of the connecting gear 10 and the transmission gear 15, and then the plug plate 8 is continuously slid, and the block 11 is used to force the connecting arm 16 to drive the rotating arm 9 to swing until it is obliquely inserted into the ground, so that the position of the fixing seat 2 is fixed.
