Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of connectors, in particular to a metal connector convenient for adjusting the distance. Background Art
[0002] In some engineering and manufacturing industries, different components or structures are usually firmly connected together through connectors to ensure the overall stability and integrity, and can effectively transmit force and torque between the connected components, enabling the entire structure to bear greater loads, and can also help achieve precise alignment and direction alignment between components. It is usually made of metal materials and has certain strength and durability.
[0003] However, although the current connectors can stably connect two components, their functionality is relatively single and they cannot adjust the distance according to the usage or installation requirements. For example, in high-temperature or high-pressure environments, the workpieces to be connected may expand or contract. In order to stably assemble the workpieces, it is not suitable to use fixed connectors for connection. There are also some connectors used during assembly, such as spliced display screens, etc. Adjacent display screens are spliced and fixed through connectors. When it is necessary to adjust the distance between the splicing units according to the usage requirements and visual effects, it may be necessary to disassemble and reassemble the connectors, which is rather troublesome. Based on the above situation, we propose a metal connector convenient for adjusting the distance to solve the above problems. Summary of the Utility Model
[0004] The utility model provides a metal connector convenient for adjusting the distance to solve the problem that the metal connector in the prior art is not convenient for adjusting the distance according to the usage requirements.
[0005] The technical problems solved by the utility model are realized by adopting the following technical solutions:
[0006] A metal connector convenient for adjusting the distance includes a connecting piece, two adjusting pieces and a pushing piece. The connecting piece includes a transverse connecting portion and a longitudinal connecting portion located at the middle position of the transverse connecting portion. Both of the two adjusting pieces are slidably connected in the transverse connecting portion and are symmetrically arranged with respect to the midline of the transverse connecting portion. An installation portion extending outside the connecting piece is integrally formed on each of the two adjusting pieces. An inclined extrusion portion is provided at the bottom of the adjusting piece, and the two inclined extrusion portions are oppositely arranged. The pushing piece is movably installed in the longitudinal connecting portion. When the pushing piece extrudes the two inclined extrusion portions, the two adjusting pieces drive the two installation portions to move relatively to adjust the distance.
[0007] Preferably, the pushing member includes a wedge block slidably connected to the longitudinal connecting portion and an adjusting operating rod rotatably connected to the bottom end of the wedge block, one end of the adjusting operating rod extends to the outside of the connecting member and is threadedly connected to the connecting member.
[0008] Preferably, both ends of the transverse connecting portion are threadedly connected with positioning rods, and the positioning rods are used to limit the position of the adjusting member.
[0009] Preferably, a spring is connected between the adjusting member and the inner wall of the transverse connecting portion.
[0010] Preferably, the connecting member is provided with scale lines, and the two adjusting members are both provided with pointers extending to the outside of the connecting member.
[0011] Preferably, a plurality of mounting holes are provided on the mounting portion.
[0012] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:
[0013] By pushing the two adjusting members against each other, the two adjusting members drive the distance between the two mounting parts to be adjusted, thereby adapting to the installation and connection requirements of different workpieces, increasing the flexibility and versatility of workpiece splicing, and meeting diverse needs without the need to manufacture specific connecting members separately for each specific spacing.
[0014] When the position of the adjusting part moves, the pointer moves synchronously. The value of the spacing can be known according to the value on the scale line pointed by the pointer, which is more intuitive and more practical. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

Detailed implementation mode
[0021] In order to make the technical means, creative features, achieved purposes and effects realized by the present utility model easy to understand, the present utility model will be further described below with reference to specific drawings.
[0022] Refer to Figures 1-4 As shown, a metal connector for facilitating the adjustment of the spacing includes a connecting piece 1. The connecting piece 1 includes a transverse connecting part 11 and a longitudinal connecting part 12 located at the middle position of the transverse connecting part 11. The transverse connecting part 11 and the longitudinal connecting part 12 are integrally formed and connected. The connecting piece 1 can be made of metal materials such as steel and alloy. Two adjusting pieces 2 are slidably connected inside the transverse connecting part 11. The two adjusting pieces 2 are symmetrically arranged with respect to the midline of the transverse connecting part 11. And an installation part 3 extending to the outside of the connecting piece 1 is integrally formed on the adjusting piece 2. The installation part 3 can be used to connect two workpieces to be connected. In order to facilitate the adjustment of the spacing between the two adjusting pieces 2, an inclined extrusion part 21 is provided at the bottom of the adjusting piece 2, and the two inclined extrusion parts 21 are arranged oppositely. A pushing piece 4 is arranged inside the longitudinal connecting part 12. When the pushing piece 4 squeezes the two inclined extrusion parts 21, the two adjusting pieces 2 drive the two installation parts 3 to move relatively to adjust the spacing. Thus, when the size or working conditions of the workpiece change, by adjusting the spacing, there is no need to replace the entire connection structure, nor to separately manufacture specific connecting pieces 1 for each specific spacing, reducing costs and maintenance difficulties.
[0023] Specifically, refer to Figure 2 As shown, the pushing piece 4 includes a wedge block 41 slidably connected inside the longitudinal connecting part 12 and an adjusting operating rod 42 rotatably connected to the bottom end of the wedge block 41. The two sides of the wedge block 41 are provided with inclined surfaces. One end of the adjusting operating rod 42 extends to the outside of the connecting piece 1 and is threadedly connected to the connecting piece 1. When the adjusting operating rod 42 is rotated to drive the wedge block 41 to slide upward inside the longitudinal connecting part 12, the inclined surfaces on both sides of the wedge block 41 abut and squeeze the two inclined extrusion parts 21, causing the two adjusting pieces 2 to be forced to slide in opposite directions inside the transverse connecting part 11, thereby driving the spacing between the two installation parts 3 to increase.
[0024] Furthermore, refer to Figure 2As shown, in order to lock the positions of the two adjusting members 2 with adjusted spacing, positioning rods 5 are threadedly connected to both ends of the transverse connecting portion 11. By rotating the positioning rods 5, one end of the positioning rod 5 abuts against one side of the adjusting member 2, while the other side of the adjusting member 2, i.e., the inclined extrusion portion 21, abuts against the wedge block 41. Thus, the position of the adjusting member 2 is limited by clamping and positioning the adjusting member 2 through the wedge block 41 and the positioning rod 5, so as to achieve better stability when connecting workpieces.
[0025] Furthermore, referring to Figure 2 As shown, a spring 6 is connected between the adjusting member 2 and the inner wall of the transverse connecting portion 11. When the adjusting operation rod 42 is rotated in the reverse direction to drive the wedge block 41 to move downward in the longitudinal connecting portion 12, the wedge block 41 releases the abutting force on the adjusting member 2. Under the elastic force of the spring 6, the adjusting member 2 will be pushed to move in the opposite direction, so that the distance between the two mounting portions 3 is reduced. After the adjustment is completed, the positioning rod 5 is rotated again to abut against the adjusting member 2 to limit the adjusting member 2.
[0026] Among them, referring to Figure 1 As shown, in order to facilitate knowing the distance between the two mounting portions 3, scale lines 7 are provided on the connecting member 1. The unit of the scale lines 7 is millimeters. Pointer 71 extending to the outside of the connecting member 1 is provided on both adjusting members 2. When the adjusting member 2 moves, the pointer 71 moves synchronously. The distance between the two mounting portions 3 is determined by the value on the scale line 7 pointed by the pointer 71. In actual use, when the distance between two workpieces is known, the distance between the adjusting members 2 can be adjusted, or the adjustment range of the distance between the two workpieces can be obtained according to the distance between the two adjusting members 2, which is more intuitive and clear and convenient to use.
[0027] Furthermore, referring to Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a plurality of mounting holes 8 are provided on the mounting portion 3. When connecting the workpiece, bolts or the like can be connected to the workpiece through the mounting holes 8. In addition to the mounting holes 8, it can also be a card slot or the like, which can be set according to the mounting requirements of the workpiece.
[0028] The above shows and describes the basic principles, main features and advantages of the present invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited by the above embodiments. What is described in the above embodiments and the specification only illustrates the principles of the present invention. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, the present invention will have various changes and improvements, and these changes and improvements all fall within the scope of the present invention claimed.
