It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0030] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that the terms "longitudinal," "radial," "length," "width," "thickness," "upper," "lower," "front," "back," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "top," "bottom," "inner," "outer," and the like, indicating orientations or positional relationships, are based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings and are intended solely to facilitate the description of the present invention and simplify the description. They do not indicate or imply that the devices or elements referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed, or operate in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on the present invention. In the description of the present invention, unless otherwise specified, "plurality" means two or more.

[0031] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified or limited, the terms "mounted," "connected," and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, they can refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integral connections; mechanical connections, electrical connections; direct connections, indirect connections through an intermediate medium, and internal communication between two components. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0032] Reference Figures 1 to 5 An embodiment of the utility model provides a handle structure for portable items, including a handle 4 and a connecting component, the connecting component including a base, a slide and a sliding bar 3; the two ends of the handle 4 are connected to the shell 100 through the connecting component; the base is used to be fixedly connected to the shell 100 of the portable item or integrally formed. In this embodiment, the base is sheet-shaped, and the base is integrally formed with the outer surface of the shell of the portable item.

[0033] The slide is arranged on the base; the sliding bar 3 is passed through the slide and can slide in the slide, and the sliding bar 3 has a first section 31 and a second section 32 arranged along its length direction and connected to each other, the first section 31 is fixedly connected to or integrally formed with the handle 4 at one end away from the second section 32, and the second section 32 is arc-shaped; the first section 31 is bent from the end of the handle 4 toward the base, and from one end of the second section 32 connected to the first section 31 to the other end, the second section 32 is gradually bent toward the middle position in the length direction away from the handle 4; the sliding bar 3 can slide between an extended position and a retracted position relative to the base, and the base is provided with a limiting mechanism to prevent the sliding bar 3 from falling out of the slide.

[0034] In this embodiment, the second section 32 is in an arc shape.

[0035] When the sliding bar 3 is in an extended position relative to the base, the distance between the end of the first section 31 away from the second section 32 and the slide is the largest, so that the distance between the handle 4 and the portable item is the largest, and the second section 32 is within the slide; when the sliding bar 3 is in a retracted position relative to the base, the distance between the end of the first section 31 away from the second section 32 and the slide is the smallest, and the end of the second section 32 away from the first section 31 is outside the slide.

[0036] When the slide bar 33 transitions from the extended position to the retracted position, the end of the first segment 31 away from the second segment 32 gradually approaches the slideway, while the end of the second segment 32 away from the first segment 31 gradually slides out of the slideway. By sliding the slide bar 3 between the extended and retracted positions, the handle 4 can be extended or retracted into the carry-on item, thereby reducing the overall size of the carry-on item when the handle 4 is not in use.

[0037] Reference Figure 3The distance between the end of the second section 32 away from the first section 31 and the middle position of the length direction of the handle 4 is a first distance, which is represented by H1 in the drawings. The distance between the end of the second section 32 connected to the first section 31 and the middle position of the length direction of the handle 4 is a second distance, which is represented by H2 in the drawings. The difference between the first distance and the second distance is greater than the height of the slide, which is represented by H3 in the drawings. This allows the second section 32 that slides into the slide to have a tendency to slide out of the slide. When a person manually pulls out the handle 4, that is, when the slider 3 moves toward the extended position, the first section 31 moves away from the slide and the second section 32 slides into the slide. The second section 32 is squeezed by the slide, which gives the second section 32 an elastic force. When the handle 4 is not subjected to external force, that is, when the person is no longer using the handle 4, this elastic force can drive the second section 32 to slide out of the slide, and the first section 31 moves toward the slide until the entire slider 3 is in the retracted position.

[0038] The value of H3 being smaller than the difference between H1 and H2 is equivalent to the following situation: the second section 32 gradually bends in the direction away from the base, and the bending distance of the end of the second section 32 away from the first section 31 is greater than the height of the slide, so that after the second section 32 enters the slide, it will be squeezed by both sides of the height of the slide, causing the second section 32 to deform and have elasticity.

[0039] As an example, the second section 32 is provided with a first sliding groove 33 that penetrates along its thickness direction, and the first sliding groove 33 extends along the sliding direction of the sliding bar 3; the limiting mechanism includes a connecting column 25 and a bolt 23, and a first through hole is provided in the connecting column 25, the bolt 23 passes through the first through hole and is threadedly connected to the base, and the connecting column 25 passes through the protected first sliding groove 33.

[0040] In this embodiment, when the second section 32 slides, the first sliding groove 33 cooperates with the connecting column 25 so that the sliding path of the second section 32 is restricted, thereby preventing the sliding bar 3 from falling off the base.

[0041] As an example, a positioning protrusion 26 is provided on one end of the connecting post 25 near the base, and a positioning groove 20 is provided on the base. The positioning protrusion 26 is plugged into the positioning groove 20. The positioning protrusion 26 and the positioning groove 20 serve as a positioning function, and the plug-in fit between the positioning protrusion 26 and the positioning groove 20 allows for quick installation of the connecting post 25.

[0042] As an example, the handle 4 structure further includes a shell 1 and a limiting piece 24. The shell 1 has an inner cavity 10, a first opening 11, a second opening 12, and a groove 13. The first opening 11, the second opening 12, and the groove 13 are all connected to the inner cavity 10. The base closes the first opening 11. The sliding bar 3 extends into the inner cavity 10 from the second opening 12. The side of the limiting piece 24 close to the base extends into the inner cavity 10 through the groove 13.

[0043] The limiting plate 24 is connected to the side of the connecting column 25 away from the base, and a second through hole is set on the limiting plate 24, the second through hole is connected to the first through hole, and the bolt 23 passes through the first through hole and the second through hole in sequence; the surface of the limiting plate 24 close to the base, the surface of the base close to the limiting plate 24, and the side walls of the inner cavity 10 on both sides of the sliding direction of the sliding bar 3 enclose the slideway.

[0044] The limiting piece 24 is located on the side of the connecting post 25 away from the base. The distance between the limiting piece 24 and the base is equal to the height of the slideway. Along the width direction of the first slideway 33, the limiting piece 24 is wider than the width of the slideway. In this embodiment, the second section 32 slides within the housing 1, so that the second section 32 is not exposed to the outside, thereby preventing the second section 32 from scratching clothing or other items when the product is carried.

[0045] As an example, the connecting assembly also includes an elastic member 27 fixed on the base, and the elastic member 27 can be elastically deformed toward the bottom wall of the inner cavity 10 so that when the sliding bar 3 is in the retracted position, the elastic member 27 and the shell 1 clamp the second section 32.

[0046] The elastic member 27 in this embodiment is a manganese steel spring, one end of which is fixed to the base and the other end is bent toward the housing 1. When the handle 4 is not in use, the second section 32 slides out of the slideway. At this time, the second section 32 is located at the innermost side of the housing 1. The spring compresses the second section 32, and the spring and housing 1 clamp the second section 32, so that the position of the second section 32 remains unchanged in the absence of external force, thereby keeping the handle 4 in contact with the outer surface of the product.

[0047] As an example, a guide bar 14 is provided on one side of the housing 1 near the base, and a guide groove 28 is provided on the base, into which the guide bar 14 is embedded. Furthermore, in this embodiment, the housing 1 is provided with a guide groove 15 and a guide ridge 29. Both the guide bar 14 and the guide groove 28, as well as the guide groove 15 and the guide ridge 29, serve to position the housing 1, facilitating quick installation of the housing 1 on the base.

[0048] As an example, the depth of the inner cavity 10 gradually increases from the first segment 31 to the second segment 32 to accommodate the second segment 32. The depth of the inner cavity is the same as the height of the slideway. Optimally, the depth of the inner cavity 10 at the end of the direction from the first segment 31 to the second segment 32 is the same as the bending distance of the second segment 32 along the thickness direction of the sliding bar 3. This ensures that the elastic force on the second segment 32 is minimal when the second segment 32 is in the second state, eliminating the need for the second segment 32 to always have elastic force. Furthermore, the gradually increasing depth of the inner cavity 10 can guide the sliding of the second segment 32 when the sliding bar 3 moves from the first state to the second state.

[0049] As an example, a second slide groove 34 is provided on a side of the first section 31 adjacent to the second section 32. The second slide groove 34 communicates with the first slide groove 33, so that the side of the first section 31 adjacent to the second section 32 can slide into the slideway when the sliding bar 3 is in the second state. In this embodiment, the second slide groove 34 can be provided on the first section 31 so that the second slide groove 34 can also enter the housing 1.

[0050] In other embodiments, the first sliding groove 33 may be provided only on the second section 32 , without providing the second sliding groove 34 on the first section 31 .

[0051] As an example, the handle 4 includes a bar body 41 and a rubber cover 42. The rubber cover 42 wraps around the outer circumference of the bar body 41. One end of the bar body 41 in the longitudinal direction is connected to the sliding bar 3. Wrapping the rubber cover 42 on the bar body 41 can alleviate the pain caused by the bar body 41 rubbing against the hand.

[0052] In one embodiment, the present invention further provides a portable article, including a main body and the above-mentioned handle structure, wherein the main body includes a shell 100, and the base is fixed to or integrally formed on the shell.

[0053] More specifically, the main body is a mobile power supply, a speaker, a lamp, a suitcase or a tool box.

[0054] The embodiments described above are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit the same. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or make equivalent replacements for some of the technical features therein.
