Figure 4 is Figure 1 a schematic enlarged view of part A in Figure 5 is Figure 2 a schematic enlarged view of part B in
[0038] Such as Figures 1 to 5As shown, in a specific embodiment, the self-locking wrench 100 is used to plug the first board 300 in the chassis 400 into the second board 230 on the plug-in box 200, and lock the plug-in box 200 and the chassis 400. The self-locking wrench 100 is rotatably connected to the plug-in box 200, and includes an abutting portion 11, a first clamping portion 12 and a second clamping portion 21. The self-locking wrench 100 is arranged such that during the process of inserting the plug-in box 200 into the chassis 400, the abutting portion 11 abuts against the chassis 400 and causes the self-locking wrench 100 to rotate, so that the first clamping portion 12 is clamped with the first mating portion 420 on the chassis 400 and the second clamping portion 21 is clamped with the second mating portion 240 on the plug-in box 200, thereby enabling the first board 300 and the second board 230 to be plugged together, and locking the plug-in box 200 and the chassis 400. Here, when inserting, manually push the plug-in box 200 to insert into the chassis 400 from right to left, and when pulling out, manually pull the plug-in box 200 to the right. The first board 300 has a gold finger 310, the second board 230 includes a connector 220 and a PCB board 210, the connector 220 is connected to the PCB board 210, and the PCB board 210 is connected to the plug-in box 200 by bolts. During the process of inserting the plug-in box 200 into the chassis 400, the connector 220 is plugged into the gold finger 310. When the plug-in box 200 is pulled out, the connector 220 is separated from the gold finger 310.
[0039] In this embodiment, the abutting portion 11 of the self-locking wrench 100 abuts against the chassis 400, which can cause the plug-in box 200 to generate a force in the direction opposite to the insertion direction. This process can enable the second board 230 of the plug-in box 200 to be evenly docked with the first board 300 in the chassis 400, avoiding damage to the second board 230 due to excessive force. In addition, after the self-locking wrench 100 rotates, the first clamping portion 12 is clamped with the first mating portion 420 on the chassis 400, and the second clamping portion 21 is clamped with the second mating portion 240 on the plug-in box 200, thereby realizing the locking of the plug-in box 200 and the chassis 400 and ensuring the stability of the connection between the plug-in box 200 and the chassis 400.
[0040] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown in and, in some embodiments, a self-locking wrench 100 is provided at each of the opposite ends of the plug-in box 200. When the plug-in box 200 is inserted into the chassis 400, the two self-locking wrenches 1100 move simultaneously and in opposite rotation directions to jointly insert the plug-in box 200 into the chassis 400.
[0041] See Figures 3 to 5, in some embodiments, the self-locking wrench 100 further includes a first handle 10 and a second handle 20. The first handle 10 is rotatably connected to the plug box 200 and has an abutting portion 11 and a first engaging portion 12. The second handle 20 is rotatably connected to the first handle 10 and has a second engaging portion 21. Here, the first handle 10 is rotatably connected to the plug box 200 through a first connecting member 30, and the second handle 20 is connected to the first handle 10 through a second connecting member 50. When the abutting portion 11 of the self-locking wrench 100 located above the plug box 200 abuts against the chassis 400 and the plug box 200 continues to be subjected to an external force to the left, the self-locking wrench 100 will rotate clockwise around the first connecting member 30.
[0042] In some embodiments, the self-locking wrench 100 further includes an elastic member 40. The elastic member 40 is respectively connected to the first handle 10 and the second handle 20, and the elastic member 40 is arranged to be in an extended state when the second engaging portion 21 is engaged with the second mating portion 240; when the second handle 20 is forced to rotate, it is compressed so that the second engaging portion 21 disengages from the second mating portion 240. Here, the elastic member 40 is connected between the first handle 10 and the second handle 20. When the second engaging portion 21 is engaged with the second mating portion 240, since the elastic member 40 is in an extended state, there is a resilience force, which will cause the second engaging portion 21 to be tightly engaged with the second mating portion 240 to achieve self-locking.
[0043] In some embodiments, the elastic member 40 is located at the tails of the first handle 10 and the second handle 20. When it is necessary to unlock the self-locking wrench 100, pinch the tails of the first handle 10 and the second handle 20 and compress the elastic member 40 to disengage the second engaging portion 21 from the second mating portion 240, thereby unlocking the self-locking wrench 100. Here, the elastic member 40 is a spring. In other embodiments, the elastic member 40 can also be other components having the same elastic properties as the spring.
[0044] In some embodiments, the second mating portion 240 is convex and has a second arc surface 241. The second engaging portion 21 is hook-shaped, and the second engaging portion 21 is arranged to move along the second arc surface 241 when the self-locking wrench 100 rotates until it is engaged with the second mating portion 240. Here, since the second engaging portion 21 moves along an arc surface, the process of inserting the plug box 200 into the chassis 400 can be made smoother. Specifically, the second mating portion 240 protrudes towards the chassis 400, and an installation groove is provided beside the second mating portion 240. The second engaging portion 21 of the self-locking wrench 100 is located in the installation groove.
[0045] In a preferred embodiment, the second engaging portion 21 has a third arc surface 211. During the rotation of the self-locking wrench 100, the third arc surface 211 slides along the second arc surface 241 until the second engaging portion 21 hooks the second engaging portion 240. When the self-locking wrench 100 is unlocked, the third arc surface 211 also slides along the second arc surface 241 until the second engaging portion 21 disengages from the second engaging portion 240.
[0046] In some embodiments, a slot 410 is provided on the chassis 400, and the abutting portion 11 of the self-locking wrench 100 is located within the slot 410. It can be understood that the abutting portion 11 moves inside the slot 410.
[0047] In some embodiments, the abutting portion 11 has a first arc surface 111, and the first arc surface 111 abuts against the side wall of the slot 410 and is configured to move relative to the side wall of the slot 410 when the plug-in box 200 is pushed, so that the self-locking wrench 100 rotates relative to the plug-in box 200. It can be understood that during the process of inserting the plug-in box 200 into the chassis 400, there is no need to manually operate the self-locking wrench 100. Since the abutting portion 11 has the first arc surface 111, the self-locking wrench 100 will rotate when the first arc surface 111 moves relative to the side wall of the slot 410.
[0048] In some embodiments, the first engaging portion 420 is plate-shaped. The first engaging portion 12 is disposed at a position close to the abutting portion 11 and is in the shape of a groove, and the first engaging portion 420 is located inside the first engaging portion 12. Refer to Figures 1 to 5 , the first engaging portion 420 is equivalent to forming the side wall of the slot 410, and the first engaging portion 12 and the first engaging portion 420 can be clamped tightly while the abutting portion 11 rotates.
[0049] In some embodiments, the first engaging portion 12 has a first end portion 121 and a second end portion 122 arranged opposite to each other. The first engaging portion 12 is configured such that during the process of inserting the plug-in box 200 into the chassis 400, the first end portion 121 abuts against one side of the first engaging portion 420, and after the self-locking wrench 100 rotates, the first end portion 121 and the second end portion 122 respectively abut against the two side surfaces of the first engaging portion 420, so that the first engaging portion 12 is clamped with the first engaging portion 420.
[0050] In some embodiments, the head of the first handle 10 is rotatably connected to the plug-in box 200, and both the abutting portion 11 and the first engaging portion 12 are disposed at the head of the first handle 10. The second engaging portion 21 is disposed at the head of the second handle 20, and the pivot point of the first handle 10 and the second handle 20 is located at the middle position of the first handle 10 and the second handle 20.
[0051] Refer to Figure 1Part A can be understood as follows: When the chassis insert 200 is not inserted into the chassis 400, the entire self-locking wrench 100 is in a state where the left side is lower and the right side is higher. That is to say, the tails of the first handle 10 and the second handle 20 are located at the upper right of the heads. At this time, the first end 121 of the first engaging portion 12 abuts against the side wall of the first mating portion 420. When the chassis insert 200 is inserted into the chassis 400 from right to left, the abutting portion 11 of the self-locking wrench 100 abuts against the side wall of the slot 410, causing the self-locking wrench 100 to rotate clockwise. The entire self-locking wrench 100 switches from the state where the left side is lower and the right side is higher to the state where the left side is higher and the right side is lower until the second end 122 of the first engaging portion 12 and the second end 122 are both engaged with the first mating portion 420, and the second engaging portion 21 hooks the second mating portion 240, thereby realizing the locking of the chassis insert 200 and the chassis 400. During the process of inserting the chassis insert 200 into the chassis 400 from right to left, as the chassis insert 200 moves into the chassis 400, the connector 220 of the second circuit board 230 gradually approaches the gold fingers 310 of the first circuit board 300 and docks with the gold fingers 310 of the first circuit board 300. When the self-locking wrench 100 completes self-locking, the connector 220 and the gold fingers 310 complete the plugging. When unlocking, pinch the tails of the first handle 10 and the second handle 20, compress the elastic member 40, and cause the self-locking wrench 100 to rotate counterclockwise with the first connecting member 30 as the axis. The third arc surface 211 of the second engaging portion 21 begins to contact the second arc surface 241 of the second mating portion 240 until it disengages from the second mating portion 240. During the movement of the self-locking wrench 100, the connector 220 of the second circuit board 230 gradually disengages from the gold fingers 310 of the first circuit board 300. When the connector 220 completely disengages from the gold fingers 310, the chassis insert 200 can be quickly pulled out.
[0052] At this point, those skilled in the art should recognize that although multiple exemplary embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described in detail herein, many other variations or modifications that conform to the principles of the present invention can still be directly determined or derived based on the disclosed content of the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
