Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of luggage locks, and particularly relates to a swing-arm type snap lock. Background Art
[0002] The existing snap lock, such as a composite password lock for customs inspection disclosed in a Chinese patent document with the publication number of CN202718482U, includes a snap head, a snap housing and a display block. The rear end of the snap head is a plug-in end, and both sides of the plug-in end are respectively provided with buckle feet; the buckle feet are provided with limiting rods; the bottom of the snap housing is provided with a lock core housing, the lock core housing is provided with a password device, the password device includes a lock piece, the lock piece is provided with a limiting end, the front end of the lock core housing is provided with a lock core, a lock core sleeve and a clutch block, the clutch block includes a connecting block connected to the lock core and a clutch plate, the limiting end is provided with an adjusting block, and the clutch plate is provided with an unlocking inclined plane; the display block is movably connected to the front end of the lock core housing, the display block includes an indicating rod at the upper end and a top block at the lower end, and a notch is provided at the rear end of the top block; the clutch plate is provided with a display inclined plane matched with the notch, and a display through hole matched with the indicating rod is provided on the upper end surface of the snap housing.
[0003] In the above prior art, the buckle feet are slidably mounted on the snap head. Specifically, a long strip-shaped mounting hole is provided at one end, and a limiting nail is inserted through the mounting hole. However, when in use, when a user presses the end of the buckle foot far away from the mounting hole, the buckle foot is subjected to a force in the rotational direction in addition to the force in the sliding direction. Therefore, the buckle foot is prone to generate large friction, which affects the user's feeling of pressing to unlock. Moreover, when the two buckle feet move towards or away from each other as a whole, the snap head needs to have a sufficient volume to provide a sliding space. Therefore, the lateral width of this type of snap lock is relatively large. Summary of the Invention
