[0026] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of the present utility model, the present utility model will be further introduced in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0027] The present utility model provides a folding utility knife as shown in Figures 1-5 and includes:

[0028] A handle 1, one end of the inner side of the handle 1 is rotatably connected to a connecting arm 2 through a rotating shaft, and a telescopic blade 3 is provided at one end of the connecting arm 2 relative to the handle 1;

[0029] A storage mechanism, the storage mechanism includes a first cavity 8 and a second cavity 9 opened in the connecting arm 2, the first cavity 8 is located between the blade 3 and the second cavity 9, and the bottoms of the first cavity 8 and the second cavity 9 are communicated;

[0030] One end of the blade 3 extends into the first cavity 8 and is connected with an elastic member. A support plate 12 is penetrated between the bottom ends of the first cavity 8 and the second cavity 9. One end of the support plate 12 is connected to the blade 3, and a rack 13 is provided on the top side of the other end of the support plate 12. A pulling member is provided on one side of the support plate 12. A gear 14 is rotatably connected to the inside of the second cavity 9 through a rotating shaft. The gear 14 meshes with the rack 13, and a fixing assembly is provided above the gear 14;

[0031] A limiting groove 19 matching the blade 3 is formed inside the handle 1 at one end opposite to the connecting arm 2 .

[0032] The inner wall of the limiting groove 19 is provided with a sponge pad 20. By providing the sponge pad 20, the water stain on the blade 3 can be wiped.

[0033] The pulling member includes a fixing bar 5 arranged on one side of the connecting arm 2, a slider 7 is fixed to the middle end of the side wall of the supporting plate 12, a sliding groove 6 facing the fixing bar 5 is opened on the side wall of the connecting arm 2, and one end of the slider 7 passes through the sliding groove 6 and is fixedly connected to the fixing bar 5.

[0034] The elastic member includes a slide plate 10 slidably connected to one end of the first cavity 8, one end of the blade 3 is fixedly connected to the slide plate 10, a first spring 11 is fixed inside the first cavity 8 relative to one end of the blade 3, and one end of the first spring 11 is fixedly connected to the slide plate 10.

[0035] A groove 4 is provided in the middle of one side of the knife handle 1 close to the fixing bar 5. The fixing bar 5 and the pull block 18 are conveniently moved by the provided groove 4.

[0036] The fixing assembly includes two second springs 16 symmetrically fixed on the top side of the second cavity 9, the bottom end of the second spring 16 is connected to a toothed plate 15, and a connecting rod 17 is passed through the inside of the second spring 16, the toothed plate 15 is meshed with the gear 14, the bottom end of the connecting rod 17 is fixedly connected to the toothed plate 15, and the top end of the connecting rod 17 extends to the outside of the connecting arm 2 and is fixed with a pull block 18.

[0037] The pull block 18 is U-shaped, and anti-skid convex patterns are provided on both sides of the pull block 18. The anti-skid convex patterns facilitate the movement of the pull block 18.

[0038] When in use, the pull block 18 can be pulled upwards, so that the pull block 18 drives the connecting rod 17 to move, and then the connecting rod 17 drives the tooth plate 15 to rise and squeeze the second spring 16, so that the tooth plate 15 can be separated from the gear 14, and the fixation of the gear 14 can be released;

[0039] Afterwards, the fixed bar 5 on one side can be pulled, so that the fixed bar 5 drives the slider 7 to slide in the chute 6.

The connecting arm 2 is rotated and inserted into the knife handle 1. Then, the fixed bar 5 is released. Under the elastic action of the elastic member, the blade 3 can quickly extend out of the connecting arm 2 and be inserted into the limit groove 19. And when the pulling block 18 is released, the gear 14 can be fixed again. Thus, the blade 3 can be fastened in the limit groove 19, so that the connecting arm 2 cannot be pulled out of the connecting arm 2 randomly. Furthermore, the safety and stability after the utility model art knife is folded and stored can be effectively guaranteed;

[0040] On the contrary, through the fixing component, the connecting arm 2 can be unlocked and pulled out, and then locked again through the fixing component, so that the extended blade 3 can be kept stable. The operation is simple and fast, greatly improving the use effect of the device.

[0041] Only some exemplary embodiments of the present invention are described in the above by way of illustration. Undoubtedly, for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, the described embodiments can be modified in various different ways. Therefore, the above drawings and description are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the protection scope of the claims of the present invention.
