[0094] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are intended only to illustrate the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. It should also be noted that, for ease of description, the accompanying drawings only illustrate portions relevant to the present invention, not all of its components.

[0095] Example

[0096] Please see first Figures 1 to 9 As shown, the present invention is a handle 10, comprising: a body 11. In this embodiment, the body 11 is a U-shaped body, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0097] A fastener 12, the front portion of the fastener 12 is inside the body 11, and a locking feature 121 is provided at the front end of the fastener 12, and the locking feature 121 is located outside the body 11. In this embodiment, the locking feature 121 has a symmetrical locking piece A, but is not limited to this.

[0098] A switching member 13 is movably connected to the body 11 and the fastener 12. When the switching member 13 is in the first state S1 and drives the fastener 12 toward the first position D1, the locking feature 121 extends along with the fastener 12 in the body 11, and the first state S1 is a locked state. Alternatively, when the switching member 13 is in the second state S2 and drives the fastener 12 toward the second position D2, the locking feature 121 retracts along with the fastener 12 in the body 11, and the second state S2 is an unlocked state. In this embodiment, In this example, the main body 11 defines a guide hole 111, the fastener 12 defines a guide opening 122, and the switching member 13 has a guide portion 131. The guide portion 131 is located between the guide hole 111 and the guide opening 122. When the guide portion 131 is displaced in the guide hole 111, the guide portion 131 drives the guide opening 122. Further, the guide hole 111 is arc-shaped and the guide opening 122 has a guide surface F, and the guide hole 111 is set with a first endpoint P1 and a second endpoint P2, but is not limited to this.

[0099] like Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the switching member 13 has a rotating portion 132 and an operating portion 133 extending from the rotating portion 132, and the main body 11 has a supporting portion 112 and a supporting portion 113 extending from the supporting portion 112, and the rotating portion 132 has an axis G and an axial hole G1 and is pivotally connected to the supporting portion 113 and the operating portion 133 relative to the supporting portion 112. When the switching member 13 is in the first state S1, the operating portion 133 is close to the supporting portion 112. At this time, the guide portion 131 performs an arc displacement toward the first end P1 of the guide hole 111.

[0100] like Figure 6 、 Figure 7 、 Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, when the switching member 13 is in the second state S2, the operating portion 133 is away from the abutting portion 112. At the same time, when the guiding portion 131 is displaced in the guiding hole 111 along with the rotating portion 132, the guiding portion 131 pushes the guiding surface F and drives the guiding port 122. At this time, the guiding portion is displaced in an arc shape toward the second end P2 of the guiding hole 111.

[0101] In addition, it may further include a reinforcing member 20, which is disposed in the body 11 and is located on the side of the fastener 12. The reinforcing member 20 and the body 11 are fixed by mechanical elements such as screws and rivets. It may further include a cover 30 and an elastic member 40. The cover 30 is disposed at the tail of the fastener 12, and one end of the elastic member 40 is connected to the reinforcing member 20, while the other end of the elastic member 40 is connected to the cover 30. In this embodiment, the fastener 12 has an accommodating space 124 with an opening 123, and The reinforcing member 20 has a first connecting portion 21 and the cover body 30 has a second connecting portion 31. The first connecting portion 21 is connected to the accommodating space 124 through the opening 123, and the second connecting portion 31 is connected to the accommodating space 124 through the tail of the fastener 12. One end of the elastic member 40 is connected to the first connecting portion 21, and the other end of the elastic member 40 is connected to the second connecting portion 31, so that the elastic member 40 performs a buffering action in the accommodating space 124. The elastic member 40 can be a tension spring, but is not limited thereto.

[0102] As mentioned above, the guide portion 131 is a bent sheet extending from the guide hole 111 to the guide port 122, which is also the first embodiment. Figures 10-18 As shown, the switching member 13 is only provided with a guide portion 131A, and the guide portion 131A is a rivet that passes through the switching member 13, which is also the second embodiment. Therefore, the guide portion 131 of the first embodiment and the guide portion 131A of the second embodiment both have the function of pushing the guide surface F to drive the guide port 122. In this way, Figure 11 Corresponding Figure 2 、 Figure 12 Corresponding Figure 3 、 Figure 13 Corresponding Figure 4 、 Figure 14 Corresponding Figure 5 、 Figure 15 Corresponding Figure 6 、 Figure 16 Corresponding Figure 7 、 Figure 17 Corresponding Figure 8 and Figure 18 Corresponding Figure 9 I won’t elaborate on this.

[0103] See also Figure 19 、 Figure 20 and Figure 21 As shown, a rail member 50 is provided with an opening 501. The opening 501 is opposite to the locking feature 121, and the locking feature 121 extends or retracts in the opening 501. In this embodiment, a first connecting portion 114 extends from the front end of the body 11 to form two gaps B, and each locking piece A can extend or retract in each gap B. The first connecting portion 114 has a first connecting hole C1 and the rail member 50 has a first fixing hole 502. The fixing hole 502 corresponds to the first connecting hole C1. The first connecting hole C1 is directly provided with an internal thread or an additional nut is provided. A first fixing member E1 with an external thread is passed through the first fixing hole 502 to the first connecting hole C1 to fix the body 11 to the rail member 50. The locking piece A has a guiding inclined surface A1 to facilitate the locking feature 121 to extend or retract in the opening 501, but is not limited to this.

[0104] As mentioned above, the rail 50 can be an inner frame, and the rail 50 is movably connected to a middle frame 51, and the middle frame 51 is movably connected to an outer frame 52. The length of the rail 50 is shorter than the length of the middle frame 51 and the length of the outer frame 52. The middle frame 51 is provided with a first frame hole 511 and the outer frame 52 is provided with a second frame hole 521, and the opening 501 corresponds to the first frame hole 511 and the second frame hole 521 as the rail moves. The locking feature 121 extends and locks into the first frame hole 511 to the second frame hole 521, or the locking feature 121 retracts and disengages from the first frame hole 511 to the second frame hole 521. When the locking feature 121 retracts within the opening 501, the front end of the locking feature 121 is located at the opening 501. Therefore, when the locking feature 121 extends, the locking feature 121 does not need to be repositioned in the opening 501.

[0105] See also Figure 22 、 Figure 23 、 Figure 24 and Figure 25 As shown, a second connecting portion 115 extends from the side of the main body 11, and the second connecting portion 115 is connected to a carrier 60. The second connecting portion 115 is provided with a second connecting hole C2 and a first hole 61 is provided on one side of the carrier 60. The first hole 61 corresponds to the second connecting hole C2, and a second fixing member E2 is passed through the second connecting hole C2 to the first hole 61, so that one side of the carrier 60 is fixed to the main body 11, and the rail member 50 is provided with a second fixing hole 503 and a second hole 62 is provided on the other side of the carrier 60, and a third fixing member E3 is passed through the second fixing hole 503 to the second hole 62, so that the other side of the carrier 60 is fixed to the rail member 50. Therefore, after the handle 10 is unlocked, the handle 10 drives the rail member 50 to link the carrier 60. The carrier 60 can be a server case or a drawer, and can also be used in servers or furniture.
