Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of anti - detachment and buckling functional parts, and further relates to an indicating functional buckle. Background Art

[0002] Due to the requirements of the functions of some devices themselves or the assembly process, it is necessary to set up anti - loosening and anti - detachment buckle structures. After being installed in place, the buckle enters the card slot and plays a role in blocking and limiting.

[0003] During the process implementation, the following situations are likely to occur:

[0004] a) The assembly site environment is noisy. When assembling this product, it is impossible to judge whether the buckle has rebounded by the sound of the buckle closing, so it is impossible to judge whether the device is installed in place.

[0005] b) On the production line, the workers responsible for assembling this device have different tactile sensations and cannot accurately feel the moment when the buckle closes through the tactile method, so it is impossible to judge whether the device is installed in place.

[0006] c) During the assembly process, there are other structural elements, such as viscous glue, sound - proof felt buffer materials, etc. at the buckle - closing place, resulting in unclear sound or vibration feedback of the buckle, so it is impossible to judge whether the device is installed in place.

[0007] d) On a highly automated unmanned assembly line, the robotic arm or assembly fixture cannot obtain effective feedback on qualified assembly, and thus it is impossible to judge whether the device is installed in place.

[0008] No matter which assembly method is adopted, it is difficult to ensure that the buckle has been accurately installed in place. The occurrence of the above - mentioned situations will affect the judgment of workers or equipment on whether the assembly is qualified, resulting in a high probability of failure of the assembled device, affecting the functional integrity, the quality of the equipment, and even causing potential safety hazards.

[0034] The core of the present utility model is to provide an indicating function buckle, which provides continuous visual feedback for the operator through the difference shown during the relative movement between the base indicating component and the fastening function component. The feedback is clear, and compared with ordinary disposable instantaneous feedback, the judgment is more reliable.

[0035] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of the present utility model, the indicating function buckle of the present utility model will be introduced in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0036] The present utility model provides an indicating function buckle, which combines Figure 1 As shown, the buckle includes a base indicating component 1 and a fastening function component 2. The base indicating component 1 and the fastening function component 2 can be an integrally formed structure, being two parts of one structure; or they can be two mutually independent and assembled structures, being two independently processed and formed components.

[0037] The fastening function component 2 can move relative to the base indicating component 1. The base indicating component 1 and the fastening function component 2 are integrally formed or assembled. The movement of the fastening function component 2 relative to the base indicating component 1 can be mechanical relative movement or rotation, or it can be a position change caused by elastic deformation of the fastening function component 2 relative to the base indicating component 1.

[0038] When the fastening function component 2 moves relative to the base indicating component 1, it is considered that the base indicating component 1 remains stationary, and the whole or a part of the fastening function component 2 moves. The clamping head part of the fastening function component 2 is engaged with the clamping groove 3 for locking. The fastening function component 2 should have at least two different relative position relationships with respect to the base indicating component 1. Therefore, the fastening function component 2 includes two states: a fastening position and a retracted position. The fastening position means that the fastening function component 2 has completed the fastening and locking, and the retracted position indicates that the fastening function component 2 has not completed the fastening and locking. When the clamping head part of the fastening function component 2 is inserted into the clamping groove 3, it is in the fastening position.

[0039] The fastening function component 2 has a tendency to move towards the fastening position through an elastic member. For the integrally formed structure of the base indicating component 1 and the fastening function component 2, the elastic member is a part of the fastening function component 2 itself that undergoes elastic deformation; for the assembled structure of the base indicating component 1 and the fastening function component 2, the elastic member is a structure provided between the fastening function component 2 and the base indicating component 1. Under the elastic force of the elastic member, the clamping head part of the fastening function component 2 can be clamped into the clamping groove 3. Combining Figure 2 、 Figure 3As shown, the card slot 3 is a groove structure provided on the side wall of the structure to be buckled. When the chuck of the buckling functional component 2 contacts the side wall, the buckling functional component 2 is in the retracted position. When the chuck of the buckling functional component 2 enters the card slot 3, the buckling functional component 2 is in the buckled position.

[0040] The buckling functional component 2 is provided with two distinguishable display areas 21; an indicating structure is provided on the base indicating component 1. In two states, the relative positions of the buckling functional component 2 and the base indicating component 1 change, and the indicating structure indicates the display area 21 corresponding to the state; that is, when the buckling functional component 2 is in the buckled position, one of the display areas 21 of the buckling functional component 2 is opposite to the indicating structure on the base indicating component 1; when the buckling functional component 2 is in the retracted position, the other display area 21 of the buckling functional component 2 is opposite to the indicating structure on the base indicating component 1. The indicating structure and the display area 21 both face the operator, and the relative state of the indicating structure and a certain display area 21 can be observed by the naked eye, providing visual feedback to the operator on whether the buckling is in place; the relative state of the indicating structure and a certain display area 21 is a continuous display state. Compared with the traditional reliance on instantaneous vibration or sound prompts, it can effectively ensure being perceived by the operator, provide clear feedback, and make the judgment of the buckling state more reliable.

[0041] On the basis of the above solution, the present utility model hereby provides a specific structural form: Combining Figure 1 、 Figure 3 , the indicating structure provided on the base indicating component 1 of the present utility model includes an indicating arm 11. The indicating arm 11 blocks the buckling functional component 2 in the viewing direction. The indicating arm 11 is provided with an observation window 111 for displaying a partial structure of the buckling functional component 2. The observation window 111 is a through-hole structure provided on the indicating arm 11. The solid part of the indicating arm 11 will block the buckling functional component 2, while the observation window 111 will expose a partial buckling functional component 2. With the help of the observation window 111, the operator can view the display area 21. When the observation window 111 is directly opposite to a certain display area 21, it indicates that the buckling functional component 2 is in the buckled position and the retracted position.

[0042] Combining Figure 1 、 Figure 3 As shown, the buckling functional component 2 includes an elastic cantilever 22 fixed to the base indicating component 1 and capable of elastic deformation. The elastic cantilever 22 is fixed to the base indicating component 1 as a whole. The elastic cantilever 22 can produce elastic deformation, and when the elastic cantilever 22 elastically deforms, its relative position with the indicating arm 11 will change.

[0043] The buckling functional component 2 includes a platform portion 23 fixed to the free end of the elastic cantilever 22. One end edge of the platform portion 23 is used to achieve buckling. Combining Figure 1 、 Figure 3As shown, the right end of the platform part 23 serves as a chuck and can be inserted into the slot 3; the other end of the platform part 23 is used to set the display area 21, and the display area 21 is located on the upper surface of the platform part 23 near the left side. When the elastic cantilever 22 undergoes elastic deformation, different display areas 21 face the observation window 111 and can be viewed by the operator.

[0044] Combined with Figure 1 As shown, the base indicating component 1 includes a first outer arm 12, a second outer arm 13, a base plate 14, and a connecting arm 15. The two ends of the base plate 14 are respectively connected to the bottom ends of the first outer arm 12 and the second outer arm 13, and the first outer arm 12, the base plate 14, and the second outer arm 13 are connected in sequence to form a U-shaped structure. The top end of the first outer arm 12 is connected to the indicating arm 11, and a bending angle is formed between the first outer arm 12 and the indicating arm 11; the top end of the second outer arm 13 is connected to the buckling function component 2. The two ends of the connecting arm 15 are respectively connected to the first outer arm 12 and the second outer arm 13. The connecting arm 15 is used to support the first outer arm 12 and the second outer arm 13, and bending angles are respectively provided at the positions of the connecting arm 15 close to the first outer arm 12 and close to the second outer arm 13.

[0045] The base indicating component 1 is used to be relatively fixed to the assembled object, and the first outer arm 12 or the base plate 14 can be fixed on the assembled object.

[0046] Combined with Figure 1 As shown, a support plate 16 is arranged in the enclosed space surrounded by the first outer arm 12, the second outer arm 13, the base plate 14, and the connecting arm 15. The thickness of the support plate 16 is less than the buckle of the entire indicating function buckle. By arranging the support plate 16, the strength of the part of the base indicating component 1 is improved, and the deformation range is reduced.

[0047] In addition to the above structure in which the base indicating component 1 and the buckling function component 2 are integrally arranged, the present invention also provides another embodiment: Combined with Figure 4 、 Figure 5 As shown, the buckling function component 2 is an independent structure rotatably arranged on the base indicating component 1. The buckling function component 2 and the base indicating component 1 are connected by a rotating shaft, and the buckling function component 2 and the base indicating component 1 realize elastic rotation through an independently arranged elastic member. The elastic member can be a torsion spring or a spring, or a metal elastic sheet.

[0048] Figure 4 And Figure 5 Respectively show two different structures. Figure 4 Among them, the indicating arm 11 is located above the buckling function component 2, so an observation window 111 is arranged on the indicating arm 11. Figure 5The indicating arm 11 therein is located on the side of the fastening functional component 2, and the upper surface of the indicating arm 11 is substantially flush with the upper surface of the fastening functional component 2. Therefore, there is no need to additionally provide an observation window. For the structure provided with the observation window 111, when the fastening functional component 2 is in a certain state, only one display area 21 can be observed.

[0049] Combined with Figure 5 As shown, the indicating structure provided by the indicating component 1 includes an indicating arm 11. The indicating arm 11 is juxtaposed with the fastening functional component 2 in the viewing direction. An indicating mark 112 for indicating the position is provided on the indicating arm 11. The indicating mark 112 replaces the observation window in the above text, and the state of the fastening functional component 2 is indicated by the indicating mark 112. As Figure 5 shown, triangular depressions and notch depressions are respectively provided in the two display areas 21. The indicating mark 112 is a triangular depression. When the indicating mark 112 is aligned with the display area 21 having the same shape, it indicates that the buckle is in place.

[0050] Specifically, the display area 21 provided in the present utility model is one or a combination of two of color, pattern, and surface treatment process. Different display areas 21 can adopt different colors (such as red and green, black and white, etc.), or different patterns (such as Figure 5 the triangle and notch in

[0051] Combined with Figure 3 shown, the end of the indicating arm 11 can contact the surface of the structure to be buckled. The indicating arm 11 and the first outer arm 12 form an angle. This structure allows the indicating arm 11 to have a certain floating range in the left-right direction to meet the assembly error. When the assembled object drives the entire buckle to move downward from top to bottom, the right end of the indicating arm 11 contacts the structure to be assembled. The right end of the platform portion 23 should originally protrude to the right from the right end of the indicating arm 11. Due to the extrusion of the structure to be buckled, the elastic cantilever 22 deforms and the platform portion 23 moves to the left. At this time, the end of the indicating arm 11 and the right end of the platform portion 23 are flush. When the platform portion 23 reaches the card slot 3, it enters the card slot 3 under the action of elastic force to form a buckle fit. At this time, it can block the upward movement of the assembled object; it is judged whether the buckling is in place by observing the position of the display area 21.

[0052] The above description of the disclosed embodiments enables those skilled in the art to implement or use the present utility model. Various modifications to these embodiments will be obvious to those skilled in the art. The general principles defined herein can be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present utility model. Therefore, the present utility model will not be limited to these embodiments shown herein, but rather to the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
