[0026] A lower frame structure 1 of a dragon lantern head, as Figures 2 - 5 shown, includes a lower frame main body 11 and a lower jaw structure 12, and the lower frame main body 11 and the lower jaw structure 12 are integrally formed;

[0027] Among them, the lower frame main body 11 and the lower jaw structure 12 are integrally injection-molded by an injection molding device.

[0028] The lower frame body 11 includes a semi-circular arc portion 111, a plurality of grid holes 112 opened in the arc portion 111, a first through hole 115 opened in the arc portion 111, a hollow support rod mounting portion 113 extending upward at the first through hole 115, and a plurality of buckles 114 provided on opposite sides of the upper part of the arc portion 111;

[0029] Among them, the lower frame body 11 includes a semi-circular arc portion 111, a plurality of grid holes 112 opened in the arc portion 111. The grid holes 112 are distributed on both sides of the arc portion 111. By providing the grid holes 112, the weight of the lower frame structure 1 can be reduced, making the lower frame structure 1 lighter; a first through hole 115 opened in the arc portion 111, a hollow support rod mounting portion 113 extending upward at the first through hole 115. An operator can pass a support rod through the first through hole 115 and the middle of the support rod mounting portion 113, then connect the passing end of the support rod to the upper frame structure 2, and then connect the support rod to the support rod mounting portion 113 through a connecting member, and a plurality of buckles 114 provided on opposite sides of the upper part of the arc portion 111; "As Figure 6 shown" The buckle 114 is used for snap connection with the connection hole 22 of the upper frame structure 2. Thus, through the buckle 114 of the lower frame structure 1 and the connection hole 22 of the upper frame structure 2, the lower frame structure 1 and the upper frame structure 2 are connected together to form the " Figure 1 shown" dragon lantern head.

[0030] The lower jaw structure 12 includes a lower jaw main body portion 121, a second through hole 122 opened in the lower jaw main body portion 121, and a wrapping portion 123 extending upward from the side of the lower jaw main body portion 121.

[0031] Among them, the lower jaw structure 12 includes a lower jaw main body portion 121, a second through hole 122 opened in the lower jaw main body portion 121. "As Figure 7 shown" The second through hole 122 is used for installing the dragon ball 3. A screw rod 4 is provided on the dragon ball 3. Insert the screw rod 4 on the dragon ball 3 into the second through hole 122, and then screw a bolt 5 onto the screw rod 4. Thus, the dragon ball 3 is installed on the lower jaw main body portion 121; a wrapping portion 123 extending upward from the side of the lower jaw main body portion 121. By providing the wrapping portion 123, the lower jaw structure 12 can be made more similar to the dragon head, increasing the aesthetic property.

[0032] The strut mounting portion 113 includes an annular portion 1131, two surrounding portions 1134 respectively provided on both sides of the upper part of the annular portion 1131, a gap 1135 existing between the two ends of the two surrounding portions 1134, two notches 1133 respectively opened on the opposite sides of the annular portion 1131, and two through holes 1132 respectively opened on the other opposite sides.

[0033] It can be understood that the strut is passed through the annular portion 1131, and mounting holes are provided on the strut. When the mounting holes of the strut are aligned with the through holes 1132, a connecting member can be taken out and inserted into the mounting holes and the through holes 1132, thereby connecting the strut to the lower frame structure 1 through the strut mounting portion 113;

[0034] Among them, two surrounding portions 1134 are respectively provided on both sides of the upper part of the annular portion 1131. The two surrounding portions 1134 are used to further contact the strut to firmly connect the strut to the strut mounting portion 113; a gap 1135 exists between the two ends of the two surrounding portions 1134, two notches 1133 are respectively opened on the opposite sides of the annular portion 1131, and two through holes 1132 are respectively opened on the other opposite sides. The setting of the gap 1135 and the notches 1133 can reduce the use of materials and further make the lower frame structure 1 lighter; the setting of the notches 1133 can also make the annular portion 1131 more elastic and prevent damage caused by the annular portion 1131 being too hard; the setting of the through holes 1132 facilitates the connection with the strut.

[0035] The buckle 114 includes two elastic umbrella-shaped members, and a gap 1135 exists between the two umbrella-shaped members. The umbrella-shaped member includes a semi-circular portion 1141 connected to the arc-shaped portion 111, and an umbrella-shaped portion 1142 connected to the semi-circular portion 1141.

[0036] It can be understood that the operator can insert the umbrella-shaped member into the connection hole 22 of the upper frame structure 2 to realize the clamping connection between the lower frame structure 1 and the upper frame structure 2. During the insertion process, the two umbrella-shaped members deform in the direction of approaching each other. When inserted into the connection hole 22, the two umbrella-shaped members reset outward from the deformed state. The connection hole 22 will be located at the semi-circular portion 1141, and the umbrella-shaped portion 1142 prevents the connection hole 22 from slipping out of the semi-circular portion 1141. When it is necessary to separate the lower frame structure 1 from the upper frame structure 2, by squeezing the two umbrella-shaped members to move in the direction of approaching each other, and then taking out the connection hole 22 from the umbrella-shaped member.

[0037] A thickened layer is provided on the lower jaw main body portion 121, and the second through hole 122 is opened at the central position of the thickened layer.

[0038] Among them, through the setting of the thickened layer, when installing the Dragon Ball 3, it can prevent damage to the lower jaw main body 121 caused by the extrusion force of the bolt 5 when the bolt 5 is connected to the screw rod 4, and at the same time prevent the screw rod 4 from rubbing against the second through hole 122 for a long time, causing damage to the lower jaw main body 121.

[0039] The thickness of the center position of the thickened layer is 2 mm, and the thickened layer gradually thins outwards from the center position.

[0040] Among them, as the thickened layer gradually thins outwards from the center position, while ensuring that the lower jaw main body 121 is not damaged, it can also reduce the weight and make the lower skeleton structure 1 lighter.

[0041] The distance between the second through hole 122 and the side of the lower jaw main body 121 away from the lower skeleton main body 11 is 40 mm.

[0042] Among them, through the position of the second through hole 122, after installing the Dragon Ball 3, the faucet can be made more beautiful.

[0043] To sum up, through the integral injection molding of the lower skeleton main body 11 and the lower jaw structure 12 by an injection molding device, the lower skeleton structure 1 is simple, lightweight and firm. At the same time, through the setting of the gap 1135 and the notch 1133, while reducing the use of materials, it can also ensure the reliable connection between the strut mounting part 113 and the strut, further making the lower skeleton structure 1 lightweight. In addition, through the setting of the thickened layer, when installing the Dragon Ball 3, it can prevent damage to the lower jaw main body 121 caused by the extrusion force of the bolt 5 when the bolt 5 is connected to the screw rod 4, and at the same time prevent the screw rod 4 from rubbing against the second through hole 122 for a long time, causing damage to the lower jaw main body 121.
