Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of lighting equipment technology, and in particular to a wearable flashlight. Background Technology

[0002] As people's living standards improve, flashlights have become one of the main emergency lighting tools, providing necessary lighting in emergencies such as power outages, nighttime travel, and disasters to ensure people's safety. In addition, with the popularization of tourism and outdoor activities, flashlights have become an essential item to fully meet the lighting needs of outdoor enthusiasts.

[0003] In the existing technology, to facilitate carrying flashlights, there are many small flashlights on the market, which are small in size, lightweight, and easy to carry. When not using the flashlight at night, it is usually put in a pocket, but this increases the burden on the pocket, and if there are other items in the pocket, the flashlight is prone to being squeezed and rubbed, which is inconvenient. Therefore, a wearable flashlight is proposed to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] One of the purposes of this application is to provide a wearable flashlight.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted in this application is as follows: a wearable flashlight, comprising a flashlight body and an elastic piece, wherein the elastic piece is detachably installed on the back side of the flashlight body via a snap-fit ​​structure and is in abutting state against the back side of the flashlight body; when worn, the elastic piece and the side portion of the flashlight body abut against the sides of clothing respectively, thereby locking the flashlight body onto the clothing.

[0006] Preferably, the first end of the elastic sheet is mounted on the back side of the flashlight body, and the second end of the elastic sheet abuts against the back side of the flashlight body, thereby forming a suspension area between the elastic sheet and the back side of the flashlight body.

[0007] Preferably, the first end of the elastic sheet is flush with the top end of the flashlight body, and a first groove is provided on the outside of the first end of the elastic sheet, and a second groove is provided on the top end of the flashlight body. The first groove and the second groove cooperate to form a suspension cavity.

[0008] Preferably, the second end of the elastic sheet has a "V" shape and forms an inflection point, which abuts against the back side of the flashlight body.

[0009] Preferably, a first reinforcing rib is provided at the "V"-shaped structure at the second end of the elastic sheet, and a second reinforcing rib is provided between the first end and the middle end of the elastic sheet.

[0010] Preferably, the latching structure includes a first latching component and a second latching component, wherein the first latching component is adapted to lock the elastic sheet in the horizontal direction, and the second latching component is adapted to lock the elastic sheet in the vertical direction.

[0011] Preferably, the first latching assembly includes a first latching block and a first latching slot. The first latching block is disposed on the elastic sheet, and the first latching slot is disposed on the flashlight body. During installation, the first latching block is adapted to first latch into the first latching slot in the horizontal direction, and then the first latching block is adapted to move in the vertical direction and be misaligned with the first latching slot, thereby restricting the movement of the elastic sheet in the horizontal direction.

[0012] Preferably, the second latching assembly includes a second latching block and a second latching slot. The second latching block is disposed on the elastic sheet, and the second latching slot is disposed on the flashlight body. The second latching slot includes an upper locking slot and a lower clearance slot. When the first latching block engages with the first latching slot, the second latching block engages with the lower clearance slot. When the first latching block is misaligned with the first latching slot, the second latching block engages with the upper locking slot, thereby restricting the movement of the elastic sheet in the vertical direction.

[0013] Preferably, the first end of the elastic sheet is provided with a mounting groove, the connecting piece of the second locking block is installed in the middle of the mounting groove, and a gap is left between the connecting piece and the two sides of the mounting groove.

[0014] Preferably, the flashlight body has a flat rectangular structure.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this application are as follows:

[0016] This invention features an elastic tab, allowing the flashlight to be worn on the upper part of the pocket under the action of the elastic tab.

[0028] The present application will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments. It should be noted that, without conflict, the various embodiments or technical features described below can be arbitrarily combined to form new embodiments.

[0029] In the description of this application, it should be noted that the directional terms such as "center", "lateral", "longitudinal", "length", "width", "thickness", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", "clockwise", and "counterclockwise" indicate the orientation and positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. They should not be construed as limiting the specific protection scope of this application.

[0030] It should be noted that the terms "first," "second," etc., in the specification and claims of this application are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence.

[0031] One preferred embodiment of this application, such as Figures 1 to 10 As shown, a wearable flashlight includes a flashlight body 1 and an elastic piece 2, wherein the elastic piece 2 is detachably installed on the back side of the flashlight body 1 by means of a snap-fit ​​structure and is in a state of abutting against the back side of the flashlight body 1.

[0032] It should be noted that the elastic sheet 2 can be made of deformable plastic or metal, that is, the elastic sheet 2 can deform to a certain extent under the action of external force, and can also recover its deformation after the external force is removed; under normal conditions, the elastic sheet 2 and the back side of the flashlight body 1 are in a state of mutual abutment.

[0033] Therefore, it is understandable that when we need to wear the flashlight body 1, we can first use external force to pry the elastic piece 2 away from the flashlight body 1, and then insert the elastic piece 2 into the pocket of the clothing. After releasing it, under the action of elasticity, the elastic piece 2 and the side of the flashlight body 1 will abut against the two sides of the clothing, thereby locking the flashlight body 1 onto the clothing (pocket).

[0034] Therefore, by wearing the flashlight body 1 at the top of the pocket under the action of the elastic piece 2, the weight on the pocket body can be greatly reduced, and there will be no friction with other items in the pocket, thus improving the comfort and convenience of carrying it. At the same time, the elastic piece 2 is detachable because it needs to deform during use and is therefore prone to damage, making it easy to replace.

[0035] Of course, the flashlight body 1 does not necessarily have to be worn when not in use and stored away; it can also be worn during actual use. For example, suppose we wear the flashlight body 1 in our chest pocket, which frees up our hands. While the flashlight body 1 illuminates the area in front of us, our hands can still be used for other tasks, such as climbing (climbing ladders), repairs, or other nighttime work, greatly improving the convenience and flexibility of use.

[0036] In addition, such as Figure 1 As shown, the flashlight body 1 preferably adopts a flat rectangular structure design, so that it will not appear too obtrusive or bulky when worn, while also ensuring the overall aesthetics.

[0037] Furthermore, such as Figure 4As shown, the first end (upper end) of the elastic sheet 2 is installed on the back side of the flashlight body 1, and the second end (lower end) of the elastic sheet 2 abuts against the back side of the flashlight body 1, thereby forming a suspension area 5 between the elastic sheet 2 and the back side of the flashlight body 1: formed by the gap between the middle end of the elastic sheet 2 and the flashlight body 1.

[0038] Understandably, the flashlight body 1 is not limited to being worn on clothing; it can also be suspended. For example, when camping outdoors, the flashlight body 1 can be suspended from the rope used for camping via the suspension area 5, eliminating the need for an additional hanging rope and making the flashlight more flexible and versatile in its use.

[0039] Of course, it's also easy to achieve the flashlight body 1 by using a lanyard, such as... Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a first groove 9 can be provided at the first end of the elastic piece 2, so that the rope can be passed through the first groove 9 for fastening. It should be noted that the first groove 9 needs to be higher than the flashlight body 1, otherwise the flashlight body 1 will block the first groove 9. When the elastic piece 2 is higher than the flashlight body 1, it will have a significant impact on the overall aesthetics of the flashlight.

[0040] Therefore, in order to enable the flashlight body 1 to both accommodate the lanyard and maintain a good appearance, one embodiment of this application, such as... Figure 3 As shown, when we install the first end of the elastic sheet 2, it is flush with the top of the flashlight body 1. A second groove 10 is provided at the top of the flashlight body 1. The first groove 9 and the second groove 10 cooperate to form a suspension cavity. It should be noted that the first groove 9 and the second groove 10 are in a connected state at this time, that is, the second groove 10 serves to avoid the hanging rope passing through the first groove 9.

[0041] In this embodiment, as Figure 4 As shown, the second end (lower end) of the elastic piece 2 has an approximate "V" shape, and a bend is formed at the "V" shape. The bend abuts against the back of the flashlight body 1. It can be clearly seen from the figure that at this time, the lower end of the elastic piece 2 and the back of the flashlight body 1 form a "trumpet-shaped" opening structure. This makes it easier for the elastic piece 2 to be inserted into clothing for wearing, improving the convenience of wearing.

[0042] Furthermore, in order to improve the stability of the entire structure of the elastic sheet 2, such as Figure 2As shown, a first reinforcing rib 3 is provided at the "V"-shaped structure at the second end of the elastic sheet 2, and a second reinforcing rib 4 is provided between the first end and the middle end of the elastic sheet 2. This provides sufficient support when the elastic sheet 2 deforms, preventing fatigue fracture of the elastic sheet 2 during long-term use.

[0043] One embodiment of this application, such as Figure 6 As shown, the snap-fit ​​structure includes a first snap-fit ​​assembly 6 and a second snap-fit ​​assembly 7. The first snap-fit ​​assembly 6 can lock the elastic piece 2 in the horizontal direction, and the second snap-fit ​​assembly 7 is suitable for locking the elastic piece 2 in the vertical direction, thereby realizing the locking installation of the elastic piece 2.

[0044] As a further description of the above embodiments: the first latching assembly 6 includes a first latching block 601 and a first latching groove 602, the first latching block 601 being disposed on the elastic sheet 2, and the first latching groove 602 being disposed on the flashlight body 1. The second latching assembly 7 includes a second latching block 701 and a second latching groove 702, the second latching block 701 being disposed on the elastic sheet 2, and the second latching groove 702 being disposed on the flashlight body 1; the second latching groove 702 includes an upper locking groove 7022 and a lower clearance groove 7021.

[0045] To facilitate understanding of the installation of the snap-fit ​​structure, its working principle is as follows:

[0046] During installation, such as Figure 8 As described above, we place the flashlight body 1 vertically. Then, the elastic sheet 2 moves the first locking block 601 horizontally (to the right), causing the first locking block 601 to insert into the first slot 602. Figure 9 As shown. Then, move the first card block 601 in the vertical (upward) direction, as follows. Figure 10 As shown, the first locking block 601 and the first locking slot 602 are misaligned, so that the first locking block 601 is equivalent to being inserted into the back of the flashlight body 1 and cannot be pulled out, thereby restricting the movement of the elastic piece 2 in the horizontal direction.

[0047] During the aforementioned process, when the first locking block 601 is inserted into the first locking slot 602, the second locking block 701 will enter the lower clearance slot 7021. As the first locking block 601 moves vertically upward along the first locking slot 602, the second locking block 701 moves upward within the clearance slot 7021. When the first locking block 601 moves vertically upward along the first locking slot 602 to its limit position (after the first locking block 601 and the first locking slot 602 are misaligned), the second locking block 701, under the action of deformation, will move from the lower clearance slot 7021 to the upper locking slot 7022 to engage with it. That is, the second locking block 701 will engage and lock in the locking slot 7022, thereby restricting the vertical movement of the elastic piece 2, thus completing the installation of the elastic piece 2.

[0048] Of course, when disassembling the elastic piece 2, the same principle applies in reverse. That is, the elastic piece 2 needs to be driven vertically downwards, so that under the action of external force, the second locking block 701 is forced out from the upper locking groove 7022 into the lower clearance groove 7021 (releasing the vertical lock). When the second locking block 701 moves down along the lower clearance groove 7021 to the limit position, the first locking block 601 will move down and correspond with the first locking groove 602 (releasing the horizontal lock). Finally, the elastic piece 2 can be pulled out, which is simple and convenient.

[0049] Furthermore, during the entire installation and disassembly process, the second locking block 701 plays a dominant role in locking and unlocking, and in this process, the second locking block 701 needs to have good deformation capacity; therefore, if Figure 7 As shown, a mounting groove is provided at the first end of the elastic piece 2, and a connecting piece 8 is provided in the middle of the mounting groove. The second locking block 701 is located in the middle of the connecting piece 8, and there is a gap between the connecting piece 8 and the two sides of the mounting groove. That is to say, the upper and lower ends of the connecting piece 8 are connected to the upper and lower ends of the mounting groove, but the connecting piece 8 is not connected to the two sides of the mounting groove. This ensures that the second locking block 701 has sufficient elastic deformation during locking and unlocking operations. This design of the connecting piece 8 not only ensures the deformation capacity of the second locking block 701, but also effectively avoids the problem of breakage due to excessive fatigue during long-term use.

[0050] The basic principles, main features, and advantages of this application have been described above. Those skilled in the art should understand that this application is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely the principles of this application. Various changes and modifications can be made to this application without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claims. The scope of protection claimed by this application is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
