[0027] To more clearly illustrate the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application, the following is a brief introduction to the drawings required for describing the embodiments. Obviously, the drawings described below are merely examples or embodiments of this application. Those skilled in the art can apply this application to other similar scenarios based on these drawings without inventive effort. Unless otherwise apparent from the context or otherwise noted, the same reference numerals in the figures represent the same structure or operation.
[0028] As used in this application and the claims, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, the words "a," "an," "an," and / or "the" are not intended to refer to the singular but may include the plural. Generally speaking, the terms "comprises" and "include" only indicate the inclusion of the steps and elements specifically identified, and these steps and elements do not constitute an exclusive list. A method or apparatus may also include other steps or elements.
[0029] In the description of this application, it should be understood that the directions or positional relationships indicated by directional words such as "front, back, up, down, left, right", "horizontal, vertical, vertical, horizontal" and "top, bottom" are usually based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this application and simplifying the description. Unless otherwise specified, these directional words do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction or be constructed and operated in a specific direction.

[0032] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the disassembly and assembly of accessories of a related technology provided in an embodiment of the present application.
[0033] refer to Figure 1 The housing 100 and the accessory 300 are respectively the housing and the accessory used in the electronic device in the related art. When the user needs to install the accessory 300, the screw 200 needs to be tightened in the screw hole between the housing 100 and the accessory 300, so that the housing 100 and the accessory 300 are fixedly connected. When the user needs to remove the accessory 300, the tightened screw 200 needs to be removed using a tool such as a screwdriver, and then the movable accessory 300 is removed. It can be seen that the disassembly and assembly of the accessories relies on tools such as screwdrivers, which makes the disassembly and assembly process of the accessories more cumbersome, thereby greatly affecting the user experience.
[0034] In order to solve the above problems, the utility model provides a quick-release accessory movement mechanism, which can realize convenient and quick disassembly and assembly of accessories without the need for installation tools such as screwdrivers.
[0035] Figure 2-Figure 6 This is a schematic diagram of a quick-release accessory motion mechanism provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 2-Figure 6 In the figure, the side pointed by the z direction is regarded as the upper surface, and the side pointed by the y direction is regarded as the right surface.
[0036] refer to Figure 2 An exemplary embodiment of the present invention provides a quick-release accessory movement mechanism, comprising a housing 1 and an accessory 2 detachably connected to the housing 1. The x-direction is used as the installation direction of the accessory 2 relative to the housing 1, and this will be used as an example for explanation below.
[0037] It should be noted that the housing 1 specifically refers to a housing of an electronic device that supports installation of accessories, for example, a screen housing of a desktop cash register that supports installation of accessories, and there is no limitation to this.
[0038] refer to Figure 2 、 Figure 3 The housing 1 includes an expansion slot 10. In some embodiments, the expansion slot 10 can be substantially disposed on the entire sidewall of the housing 1, such as the sidewall of the screen housing of a desktop cash register. The expansion slot 10 is provided with a limit buckle 11, which can be substantially disposed on the bottom surface of the expansion slot 10.
[0039] refer to Figure 3 、 Figure 4 The accessory 2 includes a dial button 21 and a movable buckle 22. The dial button 21 is located on the upper surface of the accessory 2. The movable buckle 22 is located on the lower surface of the accessory 2. The movable buckle 22 can be used in conjunction with the retaining buckle 11. When the dial button 21 slides, the movable buckle 22 moves, thereby removably securing the accessory 2 to the expansion slot 10.
[0040] Specifically, when the dial button 21 drives the movable buckle 22 to move toward the limiting buckle 11, the movable buckle 22 can cooperate with the limiting buckle 11 until the movable buckle 22 locks the limiting buckle 11, thereby fixing the accessory 2 in the expansion slot 22. Alternatively, when the dial button 21 drives the movable buckle 22 to move away from the limiting buckle 11, the movable buckle 22 can release the lock between the limiting buckle 11, so that the accessory 2 can be removed from the expansion slot 10, and the user can easily remove the accessory 2.
[0041] Continue to refer Figure 3 In some embodiments, the expansion slot 10 includes an expansion port 12 , and the accessory 2 includes an outwardly protruding interface 23 ; the interface 23 is configured to be detachably plugged into the interior of the expansion port 12 .
[0042] The interface 2 may refer to an interface that supports electrical connection with an electronic device. Figure 3 The interface 23 can be set in the middle position of the surface of the accessory 2 facing inward along the x direction, and the expansion port 12 can be set in the middle position of the surface opposite to the interface 23 on the shell 1, so as to improve the aesthetics.
[0043] Continue to refer Figure 3 In some embodiments, the left and right side walls of the expansion slot 10 are respectively provided with guide rails 13 ( Figure 3 Only one is marked), and the left and right side walls of the accessory 2 are respectively provided with a slot 24 ( Figure 3 Only one is marked), the slot 24 is used to enable the accessory 2 to slide on the guide rail 13.
[0044] Specifically, when the user needs to install the accessory 2, the accessory 2 can be slid inward on the guide rail 13 through the slot 24, so that the accessory 2 is placed in the expansion slot 22. Alternatively, when the user needs to remove the accessory 2, the accessory 2 can be slid outward on the guide rail 13 through the slot 24, so that the accessory can be removed conveniently and quickly.
[0045] In some embodiments, the dial button 21 is provided with a first limit, a second limit and a third limit; wherein the first limit corresponds to the accessory being in a fixed state, the second limit corresponds to the accessory being in a free state, and the third limit corresponds to the accessory being in an open state.
[0046] Among them, the fixed state refers to the state in which the accessory 2 remains fixed relative to the expansion slot 10 and cannot move forward and backward; the open state refers to the state in which the accessory 2 can move forward and backward relative to the expansion slot 10 so that the user can take out the accessory 2; the free state refers to the intermediate state between the fixed state and the open state.
[0047] Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of a dial button 21 provided in an embodiment of the present application in a first limit position; Figure 6 This is a schematic diagram of a dial button 21 provided in an embodiment of the present application in a second limit position; Figure 7 This is a schematic diagram of a change in a dial button 21 provided in an embodiment of the present application, which switches from a first limit position to a second limit position; Figure 8 This is a schematic diagram of a dial button 21 provided in an embodiment of the present application in the third limit position.
[0048] refer to Figure 5 In some embodiments, the interior of the accessory 2 is provided with a movable bracket 25, an elastic buckle 26 and an elastic wall 27. One end of the movable bracket 25 is fixed to the dial button 21 and can drive the elastic buckle 26 to move. Figure 5 The x direction is pointing to the left and the y direction is pointing up.
[0049] For example, when the dial button 21 slides to the left, the movable bracket 25 moves leftward accordingly, driving the elastic buckle 26 to move leftward, thereby increasing the contact area between the elastic buckle 26 and the elastic wall 27. Alternatively, when the dial button 21 slides to the right, the movable bracket 25 moves rightward accordingly, driving the elastic buckle 26 to move rightward, thereby reducing the contact area between the elastic buckle 26 and the elastic wall 27, or eliminating contact between the elastic buckle 26 and the elastic wall 27.
[0050] Combined with reference Figure 5 、 Figure 6 In some embodiments, the elastic buckle 26 has a protrusion 260 on the side opposite to the elastic wall 27. When the dial button 21 switches between the first limit position and the second limit position, the protrusion 260 and the elastic wall 27 produce elastic deformation, which is used to indicate the different limit positions of the dial button 21 corresponding to the movable buckle 22 and the limit opening 11 during the sliding process.
[0051] For easier understanding, refer to Figure 7 When the dial button 21 switches from the first limit position to the second limit position, the protrusion 260 moves to the right. During this process, the protrusion 260 and the elastic wall 27 need to produce elastic deformation. Only when the force applied by the user to the dial button 21 is greater than the force required for the elastic deformation, the dial button 21 can be switched from the first limit position to the second limit position, thereby facilitating the user's force application. Similarly, when the dial button 21 switches from the second limit position to the first limit position, the protrusion 260 moving to the left and the elastic wall 27 also need to produce elastic deformation. Only when the force applied by the user to the dial button 21 is greater than the force required for the elastic deformation, the dial button 21 can be switched from the second limit position to the first limit position.
[0052] In some embodiments, the movable bracket 25 may be made of plastic.
[0053] refer to Figure 5 、 Figure 6 、 Figure 7 In some embodiments, when the dial button 21 switches between the first limit position and the second limit position, the elastic deformation interference amount B between the protrusion 260 and the elastic wall 27 is 0.2 mm-0.4 mm.
[0054] Furthermore, to prevent the user from having difficulty installing the accessory 2, in some embodiments, when the dial button 21 switches between the first and second limit positions, the movable buckle 22 moves within a range of 0.6 mm to 0.8 mm. The movable bracket 25 is provided with a guide angle C, ranging from C0.5 to C1.
[0055] refer to Figure 5 、 Figure 6 、 Figure 8In some embodiments, the accessory 2 further includes a tension spring 28. When the dial button 21 switches between the first limit position and the second limit position, the tension spring 28 is used to drive the movable buckle 22 to return to its original position.
[0056] refer to Figure 8 In some embodiments, when the dial button 21 switches toward the third limit position, the movable bracket 25 drives the elastic buckle 26 to move in a direction away from the protrusion 260.
[0057] Specifically, when the user continues to turn the dial button 21 to the right, the movable bracket 25 will drive the elastic buckle 26 to move to the right, that is, in a direction away from the protrusion 260. In this way, when the contact area between the elastic buckle 26 and the elastic wall 27 is small or there is no contact with the elastic wall 27, the accessory 2 will not be locked by the elastic buckle 26 and the movable buckle 22, so the user can easily remove the accessory 2 by moving downward, thereby achieving convenient and quick removal of the accessory 2.
[0058] To sum up, the utility model provides a quick-release accessory movement mechanism, in which the accessory 2 and the expansion slot 10 are detachably connected and assembled, and the user can quickly and conveniently disassemble and assemble the accessory 2 through the dial button 21 on the surface of the accessory 2 without the need for installation tools such as screwdrivers, thereby enhancing the technological sense and convenience of the user experience.
