[0023] Next, in combination with the drawings of the present utility model, the technical solutions of the present utility model will be described. However, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts based on the embodiments in the present utility model belong to the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0024] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, the present utility model provides a connecting device for a clothing mannequin, including an insert 100 and a receiving sleeve 200 for accommodating the insert 100; the insert 100 includes a pop-up groove 101, and an elastic clamping member 110 is arranged in the pop-up groove 101; a receiving groove 201 corresponding to the pop-up groove 101 is arranged in the receiving sleeve 200; wherein, when the pop-up groove 101 corresponds to the receiving groove 201, at least part of the elastic clamping member 110 is located in the receiving groove 201.

[0025] Among them, the insert is used as the active connecting part and is designed with a pop-up groove. The pop-up groove not only provides a connection path between the insert and the receiving sleeve, but also has an elastic clamping member built in. The receiving sleeve is used as the passive connecting part and is internally designed with a receiving groove corresponding to the pop-up groove for receiving and fixing the insert. The elastic clamping member utilizes the elasticity of the material and is compressed during the insertion process. When it reaches the receiving groove, it can automatically pop out to form a snap fit, thereby preventing the insert from easily coming out and ensuring the connection stability.

[0026] Through the simple alignment and insertion actions of the insert and the receiving sleeve, quick connection can be achieved, and it is automatically locked by the elastic clamping member, improving the installation efficiency; the design of the elastic clamping member ensures that the connecting device is not easily loosened or detached when subjected to external forces, ensuring the stability between the components of the mannequin. Although the connection is stable, usually, by gently pressing the elastic clamping member or pulling the insert out of the receiving sleeve with force, and compressing it inward in any way, the locking can be released to achieve convenient disassembly.

[0027] As Figure 2As shown, in this embodiment, the pop-up locking member includes an elastic member 111 and a ball 112. One end of the elastic member 111 abuts against the inner wall of the pop-up groove 101, and the other end of the elastic member 111 pushes against the ball 112. When the pop-up groove 101 corresponds to the receiving groove 201, at least part of the ball 112 is located in the receiving groove 201, so that the insert 100 and the receiving sleeve 200 are relatively locked.

[0028] In this embodiment, the pop-up locking member is designed as a combination of an elastic member and a ball to provide a more stable and efficient locking mechanism. One end of the elastic member firmly abuts against the inner wall of the pop-up groove as a fixed fulcrum, and the other end tightly pushes against the ball, using the elastic force to provide an outward (i.e., towards the receiving groove) thrust for the ball. In this embodiment, the elastic member is set as a spring. In other embodiments, the elastic member can also be set as an elastic pin or an elastic metal sheet, and any elastic structure that meets the requirements.

[0029] When the insert is guided to a position corresponding to the receiving groove of the receiving sleeve, as the insert is inserted deeper, the ball is first compressed by the edge of the receiving groove, forcing the elastic member to deform and store energy. Once the ball crosses the boundary of the receiving groove, the elastic member quickly recovers its deformation and pushes the ball into the receiving groove until at least part of the ball is located inside the receiving groove, thus realizing the relative locking between the insert and the receiving sleeve.

[0030] In this embodiment, the contact area between the ball and the receiving groove is relatively small, but due to the continuous thrust provided by the elastic member, this point contact is transformed into a high-strength locking effect. Even when subjected to external forces, it can effectively prevent the insert from accidentally coming out, ensuring the stability of the connection of each component of the clothing model dummy.

[0031] In this embodiment, the user can complete the installation and disassembly of the insert only by manual operation without using additional tools. When disassembly is required, just compress the ball to temporarily release it from the restraint of the receiving groove, and then the insert can be pulled out from the receiving sleeve, and the operation is simple and fast.

[0032] In this embodiment, the combined design of the elastic member and the ball reduces direct friction, reduces the degree of wear, and thus extends the service life of the connecting device. At the same time, this design is also convenient for replacement and maintenance, reducing the long-term use cost.

[0033] As Figure 3As shown, in this embodiment, the receiving sleeve 200 includes a platform portion 210 and a receiving portion 220. The platform portion 210 and the receiving portion 220 are fixedly connected. A receiving groove 221 for receiving the insert 100 is formed in the receiving portion 220. A fixing pin 211 and a first fixing hole 212 are provided on the platform portion 210. The fixing pin 211 extends radially in a direction close to the receiving portion 220. In this embodiment, a receiving groove 201 for receiving the ball 112 is formed in the receiving portion 220.

[0034] Among them, the fixing pin is used to be inserted into the dummy limb to be connected to fix the receiving sleeve on the limb. At the same time, the first fixing hole can cooperate with screws, pins and other fixing parts to further fixedly connect the receiving sleeve with the dummy limb.

[0035] Preferably, the depth and width of the receiving groove are set to correspond to the size of the insert, so that after the insert is inserted into the receiving groove, it can be directly rotated to make the receiving groove correspond to the pop-up groove, that is, to make the ball at least partially snap into the pop-up groove. This design facilitates the user to use the connecting device.

[0036] Specifically, the receiving sleeve is divided into two main parts, a platform portion and a receiving portion. These two parts are fixedly connected by a firm connection method to form an integral structure. In this embodiment, the platform portion and the receiving portion are fixedly connected by an integrally formed method. In other embodiments, the platform portion and the receiving portion can also be fixedly connected by welding, threaded connection and any other desired connection methods. A receiving groove is designed inside the receiving portion, and the size and shape of the receiving groove match those of the insert to ensure that the insert can be smoothly inserted and fixed in the receiving groove.

[0037] The setting of the first fixing hole and the fixing pin provides more installation options for the connecting device. Users can, according to actual needs, fix the platform portion, that is, the entire receiving sleeve, on other parts of the clothing model dummy, such as the torso, legs, etc., through fasteners such as bolts and pins. This design not only improves the flexibility of connection, but also makes the assembly process of the entire clothing model dummy more convenient and efficient. The setting of the first fixing hole enables the receiving sleeve to be conveniently connected to other parts without additional adapters or conversion parts. This design not only simplifies the installation process, but also improves the scalability and compatibility of the entire clothing model dummy system.

[0038] While maintaining stability, the connecting device in this embodiment also pays attention to the user experience. Whether it is the installation or disassembly process, it strives to be simple and fast, reducing the user's operation difficulty and time cost.

[0039] Such as Figure 1As shown, in this embodiment, at least one reinforcing ring 222 is convexly provided on the outer surface of the accommodating portion 220. The reinforcing ring is used to increase the friction between the accommodating sleeve and the limb when the accommodating sleeve is inserted into the limb of the mannequin, making the connection more stable.

[0040] As Figure 4 shown, in this embodiment, the insert 100 includes an insertion end 102 and a fixed end 103. The insertion end 102 is set as an arc-shaped curved surface. The fixed end 103 is provided with a fixing bolt 120, a fixing piece 130 and a fixing nut 140. The fixing bolt 120 is fixedly connected to the insert 100, and the fixing nut 140 is threadedly connected to the fixing bolt 120. Among them, the insertion end is set as a roughly semi-circular shape, and this design is beneficial for the insert to enter the accommodating sleeve.

[0041] In some embodiments (not shown in the figure), a layer of anti-slip or shock-absorbing material, such as silicone or high-elastic rubber, etc., is added to the arc-shaped curved surface. This can not only reduce the frictional noise during the insertion process, but also protect the accommodating sleeve from wear, and at the same time improve the stability of the connection.

[0042] As Figure 4 shown, in this embodiment, a clamping boss 121 is formed at one end of the fixing bolt 120 close to the insert 100. A clamping hole 131 corresponding to the clamping boss 121 is recessed on the fixing piece 130. The clamping boss 121 is inserted into the clamping hole 131, and the fixing piece 130 is fixedly connected to the insert 100 through the fixing bolt 120 and the fixing nut 140. Among them, the clamping boss 121 and the clamping hole 131 are set as roughly racetrack-shaped. And, in this embodiment, at least one second fixing hole 132 is formed on the fixing piece 130.

[0043] In this embodiment, the racetrack-shaped design of the clamping boss and the clamping hole already has good anti-loosening performance. To further improve the connection accuracy and stability, in some embodiments (not shown in the figure), a small chamfer or anti-slip texture is provided at the edge of the racetrack to ensure that when the fixing nut is rotated, the clamping boss and the clamping hole can be closely fitted and are not prone to relative sliding.

[0044] In other embodiments (not shown in the figure), an adjustable-angle joint is added to the fixing piece. The joint can be set as a universal joint, a rotating shaft and other structures that can achieve joint functions, and it is combined with the second fixing hole through a fastener, so that the connecting device can not only be connected in a straight line, but also can achieve flexible adjustment and locking in multiple angles and directions to meet the complex posture settings of the mannequin's limbs under different clothing display requirements.

[0045] In this embodiment, the insert is connected to the second fixing hole on the fixing piece and the limb of another mannequin to be connected, so that when the insert is connected to the receiving sleeve, the limb to be connected of the mannequin is synchronously connected.

[0046] Preferably, the ball 112 is made of a metal material. The metal material has the characteristics of high hardness and strong durability. In this embodiment, the ball is made of a metal material. In other embodiments, the ball can be made of glass, wood, clay and any material that meets the requirements.

[0047] The utility model has many beneficial effects, including but not limited to the following described scenarios:

[0048] In a clothing showroom, this connecting device can conveniently install the mannequin on the display rack, quickly change the displayed clothing, and improve the display efficiency and customer experience; at a fashion show, the characteristics of quick installation and disassembly enable the mannequin to quickly adjust its position or be replaced to adapt to different display requirements and scene changes; in a photography studio, the photographer can quickly adjust the posture and angle of the mannequin according to the shooting needs by using this connecting device to capture the best shooting effect; in a clothing processing factory, this connecting device can be used in the sample display or quality inspection process to help workers more intuitively evaluate the fit and overall effect of the clothing; the display space of a retail store window is limited and the displayed content needs to be frequently changed.
