[0022] In order to make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of the present invention easy to understand, the present invention is further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments and drawings, but the following embodiments are only preferred embodiments of the present invention, not all. Based on the embodiments in the implementation mode, other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are all within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0023] The specific embodiments of the present utility model are described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Example
[0024] like Figures 1 to 6 The anti-dropping box connecting the faucet and the water inlet pipe joint shown in the figure includes a box-shaped body 3 whose upper part is covered on the faucet 1 and whose lower part is covered on the joint 2. The box-shaped body 3 is hollow inside and has through holes 37 at both ends. The box-shaped body 3 includes a first lock shell 31 and a second lock shell 32 assembled with each other. A snap structure is provided on one side of the box-shaped body 3 to prevent the first lock shell 31 and the second lock shell 32 from separating. The snap structure includes a paddle 311 and a snap groove 321. The first lock shell 31 is fixed with a paddle 311, and the snap groove 321 is provided on the second lock shell 32, and the snap groove 321 corresponds to the position of the paddle 311. A snapping portion 3113 cooperating with the snap groove 321 is provided on the inner side of the paddle 311. In this embodiment, the snap structure can be provided at the connection on one side of the box-shaped body 3, and of course, it can also be provided on both sides at the same time.
[0025] The connecting end 3111 of the paddle 311 is fixed to the first lock shell 31, and the movable end 3112 of the paddle 311 can be stretched outward with the connecting end 3111 as a fulcrum, and there is a movable gap 33 between the inner side of the movable end 3112 and the outer wall of the second lock shell 32 for finger operation, so as to prevent the paddle 311 from directly fitting with the second lock shell 32, and facilitate the separation of the buckle part 3113 and the buckle groove 321 during subsequent disassembly.
[0026] A C-shaped bayonet 34 is provided on the connecting end 3111 of the paddle 311, and a fixed shaft 35 embedded in the C-shaped bayonet 34 is provided on the first lock shell 31. The paddle 311 can be slightly pushed outward to facilitate the buckling portion 3113 to enter the buckle groove 321. The paddle 311 is set separately, and there is no need for one-piece molding, which reduces the manufacturing difficulty. The paddle 311 is installed in the form of a C-shaped bayonet 34 and a fixed shaft 35, which is convenient for assembly. In this embodiment, the C-shaped opening is set outward, but it can also be set inward. It only needs to change the shape of the paddle 311.
[0027] An outward-turned operating piece 3114 is disposed on the movable end 3112 of the paddle 311 , and the operating piece 3114 and the buckling portion 3113 are located on both sides of the paddle 311 .
[0028] The first mounting portion 312 and the second mounting portion 322 are respectively extended outwardly from the connection position of the first lock shell 31 and the second lock shell 32 corresponding to the snap structure position, the first mounting portion 312 and the second mounting portion 322 are fitted together and both have U-shaped openings 36 facing outward, the snap groove 321 is arranged on the inner wall of the U-shaped opening 36 of the second mounting portion 322, and the fixed shaft 35 is arranged in the U-shaped opening 36 of the first mounting portion 312.
[0029] A boss 3221 is disposed in the U-shaped opening 36 of the second mounting portion 322 . A V-shaped snap groove 321 is formed on the side of the boss 3221 away from the first mounting portion 312 . The snap-fitting portion 3113 of the paddle 311 is inclined toward the inner side of the snap groove 321 .
[0030] Working principle: After the washing machine faucet 1 and the water inlet pipe joint 2 are connected, the two lock shells are assembled to each other so that the through hole 37 at the upper end of the box-shaped body 3 clamps the convex surface of the upper end of the faucet 1, and the through hole 37 at the lower end of the box-shaped body 3 clamps the bottom of the water inlet pipe joint 2; or, the through holes 37 at both ends of the box-shaped body 3 are directly attached to the outer walls of the faucet 1 and the joint 2 for fixation, and the diameter of the through hole 37 can be selected according to needs, and finally the fixation is achieved by the engagement portion 3113 of the paddle 311 and the snap groove 321.
[0031] like Figure 7-9 As shown, the difference between the second embodiment and the first embodiment is that no mounting portion is provided outside the first lock shell 31 and the second lock shell 32, and the paddle 311 has a different shape. The connecting end 3111 of the paddle 311 is integrally formed with the first lock shell 31, and the paddle 311 is also fixed by utilizing the buckling portion 3113 on the inner side of the movable end 3112 of the paddle 311 to cooperate with the buckle groove 321 outside the second lock shell 32. The principles of the two are the same.
[0032] The paddle 311 , the first lock housing 31 , and the second lock housing 32 in the first and second embodiments are all made of plastic materials.
[0033] The above shows and describes the basic principle, main features and advantages of the utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that the utility model is not limited by the above embodiments, and the above embodiments and descriptions are only preferred examples of the utility model, and are not used to limit the utility model. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the utility model, the utility model may have various changes and improvements, which fall within the scope of the utility model to be protected, and the scope of protection of the utility model is defined by the attached claims and their equivalents.
