[0037] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 5This utility model embodiment of the lock-shaped ornament includes a lock case 1, a snap fastener 2, a lock beam 3, a first elastic element 4, and a second elastic element 5. The snap fastener 2 and lock beam 3 are confined within the lock case 1. The first elastic element 4 provides elastic force for the sliding of the snap fastener 2, and the second elastic element 5 provides elastic force for the sliding of the lock beam 3. The push-to-unlock method facilitates opening and closing and avoids the problem of easily losing parts when unlocking via methods such as inserting and removing a pin, as the pin is too small. The surface of the lock case 1 has a certain area, allowing for the display of intricate patterns, enhancing aesthetics and conveying symbolic meaning. The first elastic element 4 and the second elastic element 5 provide elastic force. The snap-fit ​​connection between the snap fastener 2 and the lock beam 3 has a simple structure, and the parts fit tightly together, eliminating the need to remove parts for locking and preventing parts from being lost.

[0038] Reference Figure 3 , Figure 4 The lock housing 1 includes a first housing 11 and a second housing 12 that are symmetrically arranged and connected as a single unit. (Refer to...) Figure 1 , Figure 2 The first housing 11 and the second housing 12 are symmetrically provided with pressing grooves 13 and sliding grooves 14. The pressing grooves 13 of the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 form a pressing locking channel to accommodate the first elastic member 4 and the snap button 2, and to accommodate one end of the locking beam 3 in the locked state. The snap button 2 slides in the pressing locking channel through the first elastic member 4. The sliding grooves 14 of the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 form a sliding channel to accommodate the second elastic member 5 and part of the locking beam 3. The locking beam 3 rotates and slides in the sliding channel through the second elastic member 5.

[0039] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 The first housing 11 is provided with multiple positioning posts 16, and the second housing 12 is provided with multiple positioning grooves 17. (Refer to...) Figure 3 Multiple positioning posts 16 and multiple positioning grooves 17 are symmetrically arranged to align the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 during the closing process, through the cooperation of the positioning posts 16 and positioning grooves 17. During component installation, the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 are separated to facilitate placement and adjustment of the component's position. After component installation, the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 are symmetrically closed and connected. Depending on the actual situation and materials, methods such as heat welding or bonding can be used to connect the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 into a single unit.

[0040] Reference Figure 3 , Figure 5Before symmetrically fitting the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 together, they need to be aligned to avoid misalignment of the external contours and internal channels of the first housing 11 and the second housing 12. The first housing 11 and the second housing 12 can be made of metal, which facilitates heating and welding, allowing the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 to better combine and limit the internal parts, preventing them from falling out of the lock case 1 and being lost. After welding, the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 form an integral lock case 1, and the surface of the lock case 1 has an area capable of displaying fine patterns. Depending on the actual situation, different processes can be used to process patterns on the surface of the lock case 1 to increase the aesthetics of the lock-shaped ornament.

[0041] In some embodiments, the pressing groove 13 includes a locking part 131, a pressing part 133, and a receiving part 132, such as Figure 2 , Figure 4 As shown. (Refer to...) Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 The extending direction of the locking part 131 is perpendicular to the extending direction of the pressing part 133. The receiving part 132 is located on one side of the locking part 131 and the pressing part 133, and communicates with them. The locking part 131 and the pressing part 133 extend outward to different sides of the first housing 11 and the second housing 12, respectively, forming openings. In other words, the locking part 131, the receiving part 132, and the pressing part 133 are sequentially connected to form a through groove with openings at both ends. The through grooves on the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 correspondingly form a pressing locking channel. A cylindrical groove is formed near the opening end of each of the two locking parts 131. The shape of the cylindrical groove matches the shape of one end of the locking beam 3 to achieve better limiting and guiding of the locking beam 3, and further realize locking. The receiving portion 132, locking portion 131, and pressing portion 133 form a curved through groove. At this time, the portion of the snap 2 whose hook 22 is connected to the pressing post 21 is located in the receiving portion 132, and the pressing post 21 is located in the pressing portion 133. The curved through groove limits the snap 2, achieving a tight fit. At the same time, since the first elastic element 4 is disposed between the snap 2 and the receiving portion 132, the first elastic element 4 is also effectively limited, effectively preventing the snap 2 and the first elastic element 4 from being lost.

[0042] In some embodiments, the sliding groove 14 includes a limiting groove 141 and a locking beam groove 142, such as Figure 2 , Figure 4 As shown. (Refer to...) Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4One end of the locking beam groove 142 extends to the outside of the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 to form an opening, and the other end of the locking beam groove 142 communicates with the limiting groove 141. That is to say, the sliding channel formed by the locking beam groove 142 and the limiting groove 141 of the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 is a channel that is open at one end and closed at the other end. At the same time, the opening formed by the locking beam groove 142 and the opening formed by the locking part 131 are located on the same side, and the distance between the two openings is the same as the distance between the cylindrical parts at both ends of the U-shaped locking beam 3. The two locking beam grooves 142 form a cylindrical groove, which extends parallel to the cylindrical grooves formed by the two locking parts 131 near the opening end, and cooperates with the cylindrical parts parallel to both ends of the locking beam 3. The cross-sectional diameter of the locking beam groove 142 is smaller than that of the limiting groove 141. In other words, the locking beam groove 142 can only accommodate the locking beam 3 to slide inside it, and the second elastic member 5 in the limiting groove 141 cannot slide out of the locking beam groove 142. This allows one end of the locking beam 3 in the limiting groove 141 to fit tightly with the second elastic member 5, effectively preventing the loss of parts.

[0043] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 The snap button 2 is slidably disposed within the press-locking channel inside the lock housing 1. The snap button 2 includes a press pin 21 and a latch 22. The latch 22 is used to limit the locking beam 3 and is disposed at the end of the press pin 21 that extends into the lock housing 1. In the locked state, the latch 22 restricts the locking beam 3 so that both ends extend into the lock housing 1. At this time, the locking beam 3 and the lock housing 1 form a closed ring structure, maintaining the locked state. In the unlocked state, the latch 22 releases the restriction on the locking beam 3, allowing one end of the locking beam 3 to pop out from the press-locking channel. At this time, the ring structure formed by the locking beam 3 and the lock housing 1 has an opening, releasing the locked state. The press pin 21 is used to push the latch 22 to move, controlling the latch 22's limitation on the locking beam 3 and changing the locking state of the lock-shaped ornament.

[0044] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 The snap 2's hook 22 and pressing post 21 form a U-shaped structure. That is, when the snap 2 is inside the lock case 1, the portion connecting the hook 22 and the pressing post 21 is located in the receiving portion 132, the pressing post 21 is located in the pressing portion 133, and the hook 22 extends into the locking portion 131. At this time, because the U-shaped structure of the snap 2 cooperates with the curved through-groove formed by the locking portion 131, the receiving portion 132, and the pressing portion 133, the shape of the through-groove limits the snap 2. Therefore, without applying external force to the snap 2, it will not slide out of the lock case 1, nor does it need to be removed for locking, making the snap 2 less likely to be lost. Simultaneously, the U-shaped structure of the snap 2 ensures that the pressing direction and the moving direction of the hook 22 are in the same direction, facilitating operation during wear.

[0045] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 6 The locking beam 3 is U-shaped, with one end movably positioned within the sliding channel inside the lock housing 1, and the other end extending into the pressing locking channel. Depending on the actual situation, when locked, both ends of the locking beam 3 extend into the lock housing 1, forming a closed ring structure with the lock housing 1, thus achieving locking. When unlocked, only one end of the locking beam 3 extends into the sliding channel, and the locking beam 3 can rotate within the sliding channel, facilitating the wearing of the lock-shaped ornament on jewelry or other decorative items. One end of the locking beam 3, which extends into the sliding channel, protrudes with a limiting ring 32. Since the diameter of the locking beam groove 142 is smaller than the diameter of the limiting ring 32, the limiting ring 32, located in the limiting groove 141, limits the locking beam 3. When the locking beam 3 slides within the sliding channel, the limiting ring 32 can only slide within the limiting groove 141, thus preventing the locking beam 3 from sliding out of the sliding channel and further preventing the loss of the second elastic element 5 located between the locking beam 3 and the end face of the limiting groove 141. The limiting ring 32 has a circular cross-section, allowing the locking beam 3 to rotate within the limiting groove 141. In practice, the cross-section of the limiting ring 32 can also be made into other shapes as needed, such as rectangles, hexagons, or other polygons. Simultaneously, the limiting groove 141 changes shape according to the cross-sectional shape of the limiting ring 32, thereby restricting the rotation of the locking beam 3 and guiding its sliding, ensuring that the locking beam 3 can only slide up and down along the sliding channel. At this point, locking does not require aligning the movable end of the lock beam 3 with the locking part 131; simply pressing it will achieve the locking effect, simplifying the wearing operation of the lock-shaped ornament.

[0046] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 4 , Figure 6The other end of the locking beam 3 has a slot 31 facing inward. In the locked state, the slot 31 and the hook 22 are opposite to each other, and the locking beam 3 and the snap fastener 2 are connected by the slot 31 and the hook 22 to achieve locking. That is, when in the locked state, the hook 22 is engaged in the slot 31, restricting the locking beam 3 and preventing it from popping out of the pressing locking channel, thus achieving locking; when in the unlocked state, the hook 22 slides out of the slot 31, and the locking beam 3 is no longer restricted by the snap fastener 2 and can pop out of the pressing locking channel, thus achieving unlocking. The cross-section of the locking beam 3 is circular, which matches the cylindrical groove formed by the locking beam groove 142 and the cylindrical groove formed near the opening end of the locking part 131. In practice, the cross-sectional shape of the locking beam 3 can also be other shapes, such as rectangles, hexagons, or other polygons. Simultaneously, the lock beam groove 142 and the locking part 131 also change their shape according to the cross-sectional shape of the lock beam 3, thereby restricting the rotation of the lock beam 3 and guiding its sliding. At this time, locking does not require aligning the movable end of the lock beam 3 with the locking part 131; simply pressing it will achieve the locking effect, simplifying the wearing operation of the lock-shaped ornament.

[0047] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 6 The hook 22 and the slot 31 have inclined guide surfaces with the same inclination direction, and are connected to the slot 31 by sliding latching through the guide surfaces. When locking is required, the locking beam 3 is pressed so that both ends enter the lock housing 1. At this time, the end of the locking beam 3 that enters the pressing locking channel squeezes the hook 22 and compresses the second elastic element 5. Since the hook 22 has a guide surface, when the locking beam 3 further squeezes the hook 22, the hook 22, through its guide surface, converts the downward thrust into a lateral thrust, and finally pushes the hook 22 into the receiving part 132, compressing the first elastic element 4, and allowing the end of the locking beam 3 with the slot 31 to fully enter the locking part 131. At this time, the position of the slot 31 corresponds to the hook 22, and the hook 22 slides into the slot 31 under the restoring elastic force of the first elastic element 4, limiting the locking beam 3. At this time, the locking beam 3, under the restoring elastic force of the second elastic element 5, has a tendency to move outward. The guide surfaces of the hook 22 and the slot 31 are located on the outer side of their snap-fit ​​connection surface, so that the lock beam 3 can only slide into the lock housing 1 and cannot slide out of the lock housing 1, thus achieving effective locking.

[0048] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 4 , Figure 6The first elastic element 4 is disposed within the press-lock channel and located between the end face of the press post 21 and the press-lock channel, providing elastic force to lock the hook 22 in the slot 31. Depending on the actual situation, the first elastic element 4 can be a spring, elastic sheet, or other elastic structure. When the lock beam 3 is pressed, causing the hook 22 to slide towards the receiving portion 132, the first elastic element 4 is compressed. When the lock beam 3 moves to the slot 31 opposite the hook 22, the hook 22 is no longer compressed by the pushing force. At this time, the first elastic element 4, through its restoring elastic force, ejects the hook 22 and the press post 21, and the hook 22 locks in the slot 31. Simultaneously, when unlocking is required, pressing the press post 21 moves the hook 22 towards the receiving portion 132 and compresses the first elastic element 4. At this time, the lock beam 3 loses the restriction of the hook 22 and can eject from the press-lock channel. Releasing the hand at this time causes the restoring elastic force of the first elastic element 4 to eject the hook 22, achieving reset.

[0049] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 4 , Figure 6 The second elastic element 5 is disposed within the sliding channel and located between the limiting ring 32 and the end face of the sliding channel. It is configured to provide the elastic force that causes the locking beam 3 to pop out from the pressing locking channel. Depending on the actual situation, the second elastic element 5 can be a spring, elastic sheet, or other elastic structure. When the locking beam 3 is pressed so that the end with the slot 31 enters the pressing locking channel, the second elastic element 5 is compressed. When unlocking is required, the snap button 2 is pressed to release the restriction on the locking beam 3. At this time, the second elastic element 5 uses its restoring elastic force to pop the end of the locking beam 3 with the slot 31 out from the pressing locking channel. At the same time, due to the limiting ring 32, the locking beam 3 will not pop out from the sliding channel, effectively preventing parts from flying out or being lost.

[0050] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 4 , Figure 6 The pressing post 21 extends into the pressing locking channel, with a first sleeve post 23 protruding along its length. The first elastic element 4 is sleeved on the outside of the first sleeve post 23. At this time, the pressing post 21 is slidably disposed within the pressing part 133, and the first elastic element 4 and the first sleeve post 23 are accommodated in the receiving part 132. The portion of the hook 22 connected to the pressing post 21 is located in the receiving part 132. When the pressing post 21 is pressed, the first sleeve post 23 and the hook 22 move toward the receiving part 132 and compress the first elastic element 4. The first sleeve post 23 limits the position of the first elastic element 4 and guides the extension and retraction direction of the first elastic element 4, preventing the tilting of the first elastic element 4 within the receiving part 132 from affecting its effect on pushing the snap 2.

[0051] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 4 , Figure 6One end of the locking beam 3 that extends into the sliding channel has a second sleeve post 33 protruding along its length, and a second elastic element 5 is sleeved on the outside of the second sleeve post 33. When the locking beam 3 is pressed, the limiting ring 32 of the locking beam 3 pushes the second elastic element 5 sleeved on the outside of the second sleeve post 33 downward and compresses the second elastic element 5. The extension and retraction direction of the second elastic element 5 of the second sleeve post 33 is guided to avoid the second elastic element 5 tilting in the limiting groove 141, which would affect its effect of pushing the locking beam 3.

[0052] In some embodiments, refer to Figures 1-4 The snap 2 also includes a button 24 for easy unlocking by pressing when wearing. The button 24 is located at the end of the pressing post 21 away from the hook 22, and is used to push the pressing post 21 to slide within the pressing part 133. The cross-sectional area of ​​the button 24 is larger than that of the pressing post 21, reducing the pressure felt by the finger when pressing and improving the user experience. (Refer to...) Figure 5 , Figure 6 The outer contour of button 24 is contoured to the opening shape of pressing part 133. When button 24 is pressed, it moves into pressing part 133 and presses pressing post 21. When button 24 is pressed until its outer contour meets the outer contour of lock case 1, the curvature of its outer contour and the curvature of lock case 1 can form a complete shape. At this time, hook 22 leaves slot 31, snap 2 releases the restriction on lock beam 3, and lock beam 3 can pop out from the pressing locking channel. Depending on the actual situation, continuing to press can make button 24 slide into pressing part 133, leaving a pressing margin to avoid the problem of not being able to remove lock-shaped ornaments because hook 22 cannot completely leave slot 31.

[0053] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 5 The cross-sectional shape of the lock case 1 includes a heart shape. Depending on the actual situation, the cross-sectional shape of the lock case 1 can also be other decorative shapes, such as star shape, ingot shape, etc.

[0054] This application provides a lock-shaped ornament, including a lock case, a snap fastener, a lock beam, a first elastic element, and a second elastic element. The lock case comprises a first housing and a second housing symmetrically arranged and connected as a single unit. The first and second housings have symmetrically formed pressing grooves and sliding grooves. The snap fastener includes a pressing post and a hook. The hook is located at one end of the pressing post that extends into the lock case. One end of the lock beam extends into the lock case, and the other end has a locking groove. The lock beam and the snap fastener are connected by the locking groove and the hook. Through the cooperation of the hook and the locking groove, and the limiting effect of the pressing groove and the sliding groove on the snap fastener and the lock beam, and the elastic force provided by the first and second elastic elements, the lock-shaped ornament of this application achieves the effects of easy opening and closing, simple structure, tight fit of parts, and low risk of loss.
