With the continuous improvement of people's requirements for health and quality of life, air quality detectors are increasingly widely used in fields such as homes, workplaces, and industrial environments. However, there are still obvious deficiencies in the protection performance of existing air quality detectors.

[0003] Existing air quality detectors usually adopt a fixed housing design. Although it can provide basic protection functions, the protection effect is significantly insufficient. For example, the patent application with the application number CN202321377051.7 proposes an indoor air quality detector based on environmental monitoring. Although its housing structure has certain protection performance, it cannot adjust its form according to the usage requirements and lacks a buffer protection mechanism, making it easy to cause device damage due to collision or dropping. Eventually, the practicality and functionality of the housing structure are poor. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a housing design that combines foldability, buffer protection mechanism, and versatility to improve the practicality and user experience of air quality detectors. For this reason, the utility model proposes a foldable housing for an air quality detector, which effectively solves the deficiencies of the prior art through innovative structural design.

[0024] In order to make the technical means, creative features, achieved purposes and functions realized by the present utility model easy to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0025] Please refer to Figure 1 - Figure 7 As shown, a foldable housing of an air quality detector includes a protective housing assembly 1, and the protective housing assembly 1 is composed of a base plate 7, a limiting plate 8, a connecting plate 9 and a first magnet 11. There are several limiting plates 8 and they are all fixedly installed at one end of the base plate 7. There are several connecting plates 9 and they are respectively fixedly installed on the inner walls of several limiting plates 8. There are several first magnets 11 and they are respectively fixedly installed in several connecting plates 9. The protective housing assembly 1 is movably installed on the air quality detector 2. Several connecting and buffering members 3 are symmetrically and fixedly installed in the air quality detector 2. The connecting and buffering member 3 is composed of a base ring 14, a buffer spring 15 and a second magnet 16. The buffer spring 15 is fixedly installed at one end of the base ring 14. The second magnet 16 is fixedly embedded in the base ring 14. The protective housing assembly 1 is connected to the air quality detector 2 through the connecting and buffering member 3. A folding bracket 4 is rotatably installed in the protective housing assembly 1. The folding bracket 4 is composed of a support plate 17 and a limiting support block 18. The limiting support block 18 is fixedly installed at one end of the support plate 17. When in use, align the limiting plate 8 of the protective housing assembly 1 with the edge of the air quality detector 2, and gently press to insert the connecting plate 9 into the connecting slot 5. At this time, the first magnet 11 and the second magnet 16 are automatically adsorbed and fixed by magnetic attraction, and at the same time, the buffer spring 15 provides elastic support to ensure that the housing is stable and has impact resistance; when using the air quality detector 2, the protective housing assembly 1 can be sleeved on the back of the air quality detector 2 as Figure 1 shown. Thus, when the user holds the air quality detector 2 with the display screen of the air quality detector 2 facing upward, the protective housing assembly 1 below can effectively protect the air quality detector 2 (that is, if the air quality detector 2 accidentally falls, the protective housing assembly 1 below can first contact the ground, thereby reducing the probability of damage to the air quality detector 2); when the air quality detector 2 is not in use, the protective housing assembly 1 can be sleeved on the front of the air quality detector 2 as Figure 3 shown. At this time, the protective housing assembly 1 can protect the display screen on the air quality detector 2, thereby reducing the probability of the display screen on it being damaged by extrusion when the air quality detector 2 is stored; when it is necessary to place the air quality detector 2 on a table or other flat surface, as Figure 4As shown, the folding bracket 4 is taken out from the receiving groove 12, the support plate 17 rotates around the fixed shaft 13 to the unfolded state, and the limit support block 18 contacts the base plate 7 to form a stable support. When folding, the support plate 17 can be rotated in the reverse direction to be received into the receiving groove 12; if the protective housing assembly 1 needs to be disassembled, the base plate 7 is pulled outward slightly to overcome the magnetic attraction force for separation, and the installation steps can be repeated during replacement.

[0026] Specifically, a number of connection slots 5 are symmetrically provided on the air quality detector 2, and a detection sensor 6 is fixedly installed on the air quality detector 2. The detection area of the detection sensor 6 needs to be kept unobstructed. When installing the protective housing assembly 1, it is ensured that the limiting plate 8 does not cover the sensor area to avoid affecting the detection accuracy.

[0027] Specifically, the connection buffer 3 is installed in the connection slot 5, the buffer spring 15 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the connection slot 5, and the base ring 14 can slide in the connection slot 5. When the protective housing assembly 1 is extruded by an external force and moves towards the air quality detector 2, the base ring 14 of the connection buffer 3 will slide along the connection slot 5, and the buffer spring 15 absorbs the impact energy, effectively reducing the damage to the air quality detector 2.

[0028] Specifically, the base plate 7 on the protective housing assembly 1 is located on one side of the air quality detector 2, a number of limiting plates 8 are movably sleeved outside the air quality detector 2, the connecting plate 9 is movably installed in the connection slot 5, a fitting groove 10 is provided at one end of the connecting plate 9, and the first magnet 11 is fixedly installed in the fitting groove 10, and the first magnet 11 is simultaneously adsorbed to the second magnet 16. A receiving groove 12 is provided on the base plate 7 of the protective housing assembly 1, and a fixed shaft 13 is fixedly installed in the receiving groove 12. The base plate 7 can be used as a holding part to facilitate carrying the device. The magnetic attraction design allows the user to quickly adjust the position of the housing (such as moving from the front to the back) to adapt to different usage scenarios.

[0029] Specifically, the folding bracket 4 is movably installed in the receiving groove 12, a shaft hole 19 is provided on the support plate 17, and the support plate 17 is rotatably installed on the fixed shaft 13 through the shaft hole 19. When the folding bracket 4 is unfolded, the support plate 17 forms a certain angle (usually 60° - 90°) with the base plate 7. The limit support block 18 prevents the bracket from being over-unfolded. After folding, the thickness of the device is reduced, which is convenient for carrying in a bag.

[0030] Finally, by setting up the protective housing assembly 1 and installing the connection buffer 3 inside the air quality detector 2, and making the protective housing assembly 1 installed on the air quality detector 2 through the connection buffer 3, this design can not only provide better physical protection for the air quality detector 2, but also effectively absorb external impact forces through the buffer spring 15, significantly reducing the risk of damage to the air quality detector 2 due to collision or fall; by setting up the folding bracket 4 on the protective housing assembly 1, users can flexibly adjust the form of the folding bracket 4 according to actual usage needs. When the folding bracket 4 is unfolded, it can provide stable support for the air quality detector 2, suitable for monitoring in desktops or fixed places, and when folded, it is convenient for carrying and storage, greatly improving the portability of the device and the diversity of applicable scenarios; adopting a magnetic connection design, that is, the first magnet 11 is adsorbed to the second magnet 16, making the installation and disassembly of the protective housing assembly 1 more convenient, facilitating the quick and easy change of the position of the protective housing assembly 1 on the air quality detector 2 according to needs. Finally, the overall structure design is compact, taking into account functionality and aesthetics, and can be widely applied to various environments such as home, office, and industry, meeting the diverse needs of different users for air quality detectors.

[0031] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely examples given for clear illustration and not limitations on the implementation manners. For those skilled in the art, other different forms of changes or variations can be made based on the above description. It is not necessary and impossible to enumerate all the implementation manners here. And the obvious changes or variations derived therefrom are still within the protection scope of the creation of the present utility model.
