[0034] refer to Figure 3 , Figure 5 The top of the protective plate 3 is slidably connected with a plywood 6, which is an L-shaped plate. A through groove 7 is provided in the middle of the bottom end of the plywood 6, and a through groove 7 is provided in the middle position of the straight plate at the bottom end of the plywood 6. A rack plate 8 is fixedly connected to the left side of the inside of the through groove 7. The length of the rack plate 8 is longer than the length of the inner wall of the through groove 7. A plywood 2 is slidably connected with a plywood 9 at the top end of the plywood 6. The plywood 29 is an L-shaped plate like the plywood 16. A groove 10 is provided in the middle of the bottom end of the plywood 29. A groove 10 is provided in the middle bottom end of the straight plate at the bottom end of the plywood 29. A rack plate 2 11 is fixedly connected to the right side of the inside of the groove 10, and the width of the rack plate 2 11 is longer than the width of the groove of the rack plate 2 11.
[0035] The left and right sides of the middle part of the splint 1 6 and the left and right sides of the middle part of the splint 2 9 are fixedly connected with sleeve boxes 12, and the left and right sides of the top straight plates of the splint 2 9 and the splint 1 6 are fixed with sleeve boxes 12. A fixing component is arranged inside the sleeve box 12. The fixing component is used to quickly connect the two guide rods 1. The bottom end of the rotating part 4 is movably connected to the middle part of the bottom end of the protective plate 3, and the rotating part 4 is rotated in the middle position of the top end of the protective plate 3.
[0036] The outer teeth of gear 5 are meshed with the right teeth of rack plate 18, and the outer teeth of gear 5 are meshed with the left teeth of rack plate 2 11. Because the middle part of the groove 10 of clamp plate 2 9 provided on gear 5 is meshed with rack plate 2 11, and the middle part of the through groove 7 of clamp plate 1 6 provided on the other side of the outside of gear 5 is meshed with rack plate 8, when gear 5 rotates, rack plate 1 8 and rack plate 2 11 will move toward each other with the rotation of the outer teeth of gear 5, the front top end of clamp plate 1 6 contacts the rear sides of the two guide rods 1, and the rear top end of clamp plate 2 9 contacts the front sides of the two guide rods 1, and clamp plate 1 6 and clamp plate 2 9 clamp the connection of the two guide rods 1 for preliminary fixation.
[0037] refer to Figure 6 The fixing assembly includes a U-shaped block 13, a vertical block 14, a spring 15, a fixed shaft 16, a rotating block 17, a spring 2 18, and a clamp 19. The U-shaped block 13 is slidably connected inside the sleeve 12, wherein the adjacent sides of the two sleeves 12 are in contact with the front and rear sides of the guide rail rod 1, and the upper and lower sides of the U-shaped block 13 are fixedly connected with the vertical blocks 14. The outer side of the vertical block 14 is slidably connected to the upper and lower sides of the inner wall of the sleeve 12, and the side of the vertical block 14 close to the guide rail rod 1 is fixedly connected with a spring 15. Press the U-shaped block 13 on the splint 1 6 and the splint 2 9 to allow the front and rear sides of the U-shaped block 13 to slide on the vertical block 14 on the inner wall of the sleeve 12 to squeeze the spring 15.
[0038] The upper and lower sides of the interior of the sleeve 12 are fixedly connected with a fixed shaft 16, and the outside of the fixed shaft 16 is rotatably connected with a rotating block 17. The fixed shaft 16 is fixed at the upper and lower positions in the middle of the inner wall of the sleeve 12, and the middle of the rotating block 17 rotates around the fixed shaft 16. The two rotating blocks 17 are rotatably connected to the upper and lower sides of the outside of the clamp 19 at one end close to the guide rod 1. The U-shaped block 13 is fixedly connected with a spring 2 18 in the middle of one side close to the guide rod 1, and the spring 2 18 is fixedly connected with a clamp 19 at one end close to the guide rod 1. The two rotating blocks 17 connected to the clamp 19 cooperate with the spring 2 18 to connect the clamp 19, thereby supporting the smooth linear movement of the clamp 19.
[0039] The end of the spring 15 away from the vertical block 14 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the sleeve 12 near the guide rod 1. The ends of the two rotating blocks 17 away from the guide rod 1 are rotatably connected to the upper and lower ends of the inner side of the U-shaped block 13. The outer part of the clamp 19 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the sleeve 12. A hole groove 20 is opened in the middle of the side of the sleeve 12 near the guide rod 1. The outer part of the clamp 19 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the hole groove 20. The outer part of the clamp 19 is clamped with the inner wall of the clamping groove 2. The U-shaped block 13 is closed to keep moving in a straight line toward the guide rod 1. Because the top ends of the two rotating blocks 17 are rotatably connected to the inner wall of the U-shaped block 13, when the U-shaped block 13 is pressed in the direction of the guide rod 1, the U-shaped block 13 will drive the rotating block 17 to rotate around the fixed axis 16 to pull the clamping member 19 toward the U-shaped block 13 to squeeze the spring 2 18 to deform, so as to achieve the retraction of the clamping member 19 into the sleeve box 12 to disengage from the clamping groove 2 set at the connection with the guide rod 1.
[0040] Working principle: when the width of the connecting mechanism needs to be adjusted, the rotating member 4 on the protective plate 3 can be rotated to drive the gear 5 to rotate. Because the gear 5 is arranged in the middle of the groove 10 of the clamping plate 2 9 and meshes with the rack plate 2 11, and the middle of the through groove 7 of the clamping plate 1 6 is arranged on the other side of the outside of the gear 5 and meshes with the rack plate 1 8, when the gear 5 rotates, the rack plate 1 8 and the rack plate 2 11 will move toward each other with the rotation of the external teeth of the gear 5, so that the rack plate 1 8 drives the clamping plate 1 6 to move by fixing the inner wall of the through groove 7 of the clamping plate 1 6, and the rack plate 2 11 drives the clamping plate 2 9 to move by fixing the groove 10 of the clamping plate 2 9, and the clamping plate 2 9 and the clamping plate 1 6 move toward each other with the rack plate 2 11 and the rack plate 1 8, thereby adjusting the spacing between the clamping plate 2 9 and the clamping plate 1 6, and realizing the adjustment of the width of the connecting mechanism, which can adapt to guide rails of different sizes, thereby reducing the need for adjustment and modification during installation.
[0041] When it is necessary to fix the two guide rails 1, by pressing the U-shaped block 13 on the clamping plate 1 6 and the clamping plate 2 9, the U-shaped block 13 is slid on the vertical block 14 on the inner wall of the sleeve 12 to squeeze the spring 15, so that the U-shaped block 13 keeps moving in a straight line toward the guide rail 1. Because the top ends of the two rotating blocks 17 are rotatably connected to the inner wall of the U-shaped block 13, when the U-shaped block 13 is pressed in the direction of the guide rail 1, the U-shaped block 13 will drive the rotating block 17 to rotate around the fixed axis 16 to pull the clamp 1. 9 squeezes the second spring 18 toward the U-shaped block 13 to deform, so that the clamping member 19 is retracted into the sleeve box 12 to disengage from the clamping slot 2 set at the connection with the guide rail rod 1, and then the U-shaped block 13 is released, so that the spring 15 is supported by the inner wall of the sleeve box 12 and drives the U-shaped block 13 to reset through the connection with the vertical block 14, and the clamping member 19 is driven by the second spring 18 and the rotating rotating block 17 to move the clamping slot 2 in the direction of the guide rail rod 1 to engage, so as to realize the quick connection of the two guide rail rods 1, thereby reducing the installation time.
[0042] Finally, it should be noted that the above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features therein. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
