In the following detailed description, only some exemplary embodiments of the present utility model are described by way of illustration. Undoubtedly, those of ordinary skill in the art can recognize that the described embodiments can be modified in various different ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present utility model. Therefore, the drawings and description are illustrative in nature and not used to limit the protection scope of the claims.
[0031] Embodiment 1:
[0032] A utility knife includes a knife body, and a blade chuck 100 is provided at the end of the knife body. The blade 200 is horizontally installed in the first clamping groove of the blade chuck 100 or vertically installed in the second clamping groove of the blade chuck 100. The blade chuck 100 has two installation positions, including a vertical installation position and a horizontal installation position. The vertical installation position corresponding to the first clamping groove can realize the vertical installation of the blade 200 for use as a cutting knife, and the horizontal installation position corresponding to the second clamping groove can realize the horizontal installation of the blade 200 for use as a flat spatula.
[0033] As Figures 1 to 3 shown, the blade chuck 100 includes a chuck body 110 and a positioning member 120. The chuck body 110 is used to clamp the blade 200 to realize the vertical and horizontal installation of the blade 200, and the positioning member 120 is used to limit the position of the installed blade 200 to ensure the stable installation of the blade 200. The chuck body 110 can be integrally formed with the knife body or connected to the knife body by mechanical connection.
[0034] In this embodiment, the blade 200 is a commonly used trapezoidal art knife in the prior art. The two tips of the trapezoidal art knife are trapezoidal. When vertically installed, the blade 200 exposed outside the chuck body 110 has the same shape as a cutting knife and can realize the cutting function. When horizontally installed, the blade 200 exposed outside the chuck body 110 has the same shape as a spatula and can realize the scraping function.
[0035] See Figures 2 to 5, the head of the chuck body 110 is open and provided with a first clamping groove 111 for vertically clamping the blade 200 and a second clamping groove 112 for horizontally clamping the blade 200. The first clamping groove 111 and the second clamping groove 112 partially overlap. The first clamping groove 111 is a trapezoidal groove adapted to the shape of one side tip of the blade 200. One side tip of the blade 200 is completely stuck in the trapezoidal groove. The trapezoidal shape of the trapezoidal groove completely surrounds and limits one side tip of the blade 200. For the installation effect diagram, see Figure 4 , the second clamping groove 112 is a rectangular groove adapted to the rear end of the blade 200. The front end of the rectangular groove penetrates through the chuck body 110. The rear end (the end opposite to the cutting edge end) of the blade 200 is stuck in the rectangular groove, and both side tips extend out of the rectangular groove. The rectangular groove limits the rear end face of the blade 200. For the installation effect diagram, see Figure 5 , the trapezoidal groove and the rectangular groove are arranged in a cross-overlap manner, and the two cross-overlap at 90°.
[0036] See Figure 6 and Figure 7, the positioning member 120 is installed on the chuck body 110 and includes a positioning lock block 121 and an unlocking lever 122. The positioning lock block 121 is arranged inside the chuck body 110 as a mechanical structure for locking or unlocking the cutting blade 200. One end of the positioning lock block 121 extends to the overlapping part between the first clamping groove 111 and the second clamping groove 112 to cooperate with the cutting blade 200, and the other end is connected to the unlocking lever 122. The positioning lock block 121 can reciprocate in the vertical direction of the first clamping groove 111 and the second clamping groove 112 to lock or unlock the cutting blade 200. The unlocking lever 122 serves as a control structure for driving the vertical movement of the positioning lock block 121. The positioning lock block 121 is arranged at one end of the unlocking lever 122, and the other end of the unlocking lever 122 extends out of the chuck body 110 and is provided with a pressing end 123. The pressing end 123 is located outside the side of the tool body 100 for convenient hand operation. When the pressing end 123 is pressed, the unlocking lever 122 tilts, and the other end is lifted in a lever manner, thereby driving the positioning lock block 121 to move away from the first clamping groove 111 and the second clamping groove 112 to unlock the cutting blade 200. At this time, the cutting blade 200 can be taken out by hand; when the pressing end 123 is released, the unlocking lever 122 resets and tilts in the reverse direction, driving the positioning lock block 121 to approach the first clamping groove 111 and the second clamping groove 112 to lock the cutting blade 200. At this time, the cutting blade 200 is stably fixed. In this embodiment, the unlocking lever 122 is made of a plastic part with certain plastic deformation, and the positioning lock block 121 can be made of a plastic part integrally formed with the unlocking lever 122. When the pressing end 123 is pressed forcefully, the unlocking lever 122 is deformed as a whole to achieve unlocking. When the pressing is stopped, the unlocking lever 122 restores the deformation and maintains the locked state.
[0037] A locking block groove 124 is provided in the chuck body 110, and the positioning locking block 121 can slide along the inner wall of the locking block groove 124. One end of the positioning locking block 121 passes through the locking block groove 124 and cooperates with the blade 200. The blade 200 includes a trapezoidal blade body, and a positioning card slot or a positioning card hole cooperating with the positioning locking block 121 is opened in the middle of the blade body. When the positioning locking block 121 is slidably inserted into the positioning card slot or the positioning card hole, the blade 200 is locked, and the blade 200 can be stably fixed by cooperating with the first clamping groove 111 and the second clamping groove 112. When the positioning locking block 121 is withdrawn from the positioning card slot or the positioning card hole, the blade 200 can be unlocked, and the blade 200 can be removed at this time. In this embodiment, the positioning lock block 121 and the locking block groove 124 are both cylindrical, and the diameter of the locking block groove 124 is larger than the diameter of the positioning lock block 121. When the positioning lock block 121 is driven by the unlocking lever 122 to tilt outward, the positioning lock block 121 can have a small amount of lateral movement, which is conducive to the smooth movement of the positioning lock block 121 in the vertical direction. The size of the positioning slot and the positioning hole is basically corresponding to the size of the positioning lock block 121, which is used to ensure that the position of the blade 200 is stable when locked. When the end of the blade 200 is against the position of the first clamping groove 111 and the second clamping groove 112, the position of the positioning slot and the positioning hole is basically consistent with the position of the positioning lock block 121, and the locking is successfully completed.
[0038] The collet body 110 is provided with a lock rod groove 125 for accommodating the unlocking lever 122. The lock rod groove 125 is arranged in parallel with the first clamping groove 111 and the second clamping groove 112. The width of the lock rod groove 125 basically corresponds to the width of the unlocking lever 122. When the unlocking lever 122 is not forced to deform, the lock rod groove 125 can limit the unlocking lever 122 to a horizontal state. When the pressing end 123 of the unlocking lever 122 is pressed, the other end of the unlocking lever 122 drives the positioning lock block 121 to move away from the first clamping groove 111 and the second clamping groove 112. On the side surface of the inner part of the lock rod groove 125 away from the positioning lock block 121, there is an unlocking retreat inclined groove 126, and the unlocking retreat inclined groove 126 gradually expands the space from the outside to the inside. On the side surface of the outer part of the lock rod groove 125 close to the positioning lock block 121, there is an unlocking pressing inclined groove 127, and the unlocking pressing inclined groove 127 gradually expands the space from the inside to the outside. The unlocking retreat inclined groove 126 and the unlocking pressing inclined groove 127 are located on both sides and at both ends of the unlocking lever 122, so that the unlocking lever 122 can form a lever-type installation method. When the pressing end 123 of the unlocking lever 122 is pressed towards the direction of the unlocking pressing inclined groove 127, the unlocking lever 122 is forced to deform, so that the other end of the unlocking lever 122 moves towards the unlocking retreat inclined groove 126, thereby driving the positioning lock block 121 to unlock the blade 200. For the unlocked state, see Figure 9 ; when the unlocking lever 122 is no longer pressed, the unlocking lever 122 resumes deformation and remains basically parallel in the lock rod groove 125, so that the positioning lock block 121 locks the blade 200. For the locked state, see Figure 8 .
[0039] The collet body 110 includes a collet seat plate 113, a collet middle layer plate 114 and a collet cover plate 115 that are correspondingly buckled. The first clamping groove 111 and the second clamping groove 112 are arranged between the collet seat plate 113 and the collet middle layer plate 114. The positioning member 120 is arranged between the collet middle layer plate 114 and the collet cover plate 115. The positioning lock block 121 is slidably arranged on the collet middle layer plate 114, and one end thereof passes through the collet middle layer plate 114 and extends to the overlapping part between the first clamping groove 111 and the second clamping groove 112. The collet body 110 is composed of the collet seat plate 113, the collet middle layer plate 114 and the collet cover plate 115, and the three can be fixed by screws. The structure is divided into three parts. The tool head is clamped between the collet seat plate 113 and the collet middle layer plate 114. The positioning lock block 121 and the unlocking lever 122 are arranged between the collet middle layer plate 114 and the collet cover plate 115. This design method has the advantages of simple structure and reasonable layout.
[0040] Embodiment 2:
[0041] The structure of this embodiment is basically the same as that of Embodiment 2, and the main difference lies in the different structure of the positioning member 120. In Embodiment 2, the other end of the positioning lock block 121 extends out of the chuck body 110, and a spring pressing piece 128 for pressing the outer surface of the positioning lock block 121 is provided on the chuck body 110. Refer to Figure 10 , the spring pressing piece 128 presses the positioning lock block 121 forcefully, so that the positioning lock block 121 locks the blade 200. When unlocking is required, the spring pressing piece 128 is toggled upward to release the positioning lock block 121, and the tool body is turned downward, so that the positioning lock block 121 moves outward to unlock the blade 200, and at this time, the blade 200 can be removed.
