Detailed Implementation
[0025] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments. The illustrative embodiments and descriptions of the present invention are used to explain the present invention, but are not intended to limit the present invention. Example 1:
[0026] like Figures 1-7 As shown, an adjustable-width pull rod structure includes a fixed frame 1, two connecting sleeves 2, two pull rods 3, a handle 31, a bidirectional screw 4, a bevel gear set 5, a turntable 6, and a transparent plate 8. The bidirectional screw 4 is rotatably connected to the fixed frame 1, the transparent plate 8 covers the fixed frame 1, the turntable 6 is rotatably mounted on the transparent plate 8, the driving gear of the bevel gear set 5 is mounted on the turntable 6, and the driven gear of the bevel gear set 5 is mounted on the bidirectional screw 4. The two connecting sleeves 2 are threadedly connected to the bidirectional screw 4. The pull rod 3 includes a vertical part and a horizontal part. The vertical part is slidably connected to the connecting sleeve 2, and the handle 31 is slidably connected to the horizontal part. By rotating the turntable 6, the bevel gear set 5 is rotated, which in turn drives the bidirectional screw 4 to rotate, thereby causing the two connecting sleeves 2 to move away from each other or closer to each other, thus adjusting the width between the two pull rods 3. The transparent plate 8 not only allows observation of the component's operation but also enhances the product's technological feel.
[0027] Preferably, a first elastic element 13 is provided between the grip 31 and the horizontal portion. The first elastic element 13 is provided to ensure that the grip 31 is in a central position between the two horizontal portions.
[0028] Preferably, the transparent plate 8 is provided with a protective ring 10, and the turntable 6 is located inside the protective ring 10, with the top surface of the turntable 6 not exceeding the top surface of the protective ring 10. The protective ring 10 protects the turntable 6, preventing it from rotating accidentally when the suitcase is placed in the storage position.
[0029] Preferably, the turntable 6 has multiple evenly spaced grooves in the circumferential direction, and a first rubber sleeve 7 adapted to the turntable 6 is fitted onto the outer wall of the turntable 6. The grooves facilitate manual operation; the first rubber sleeve 7 increases friction and prevents slippage during manual operation.
[0030] Preferably, the transparent plate 8 is provided with two scales 9 on the side near the fixed frame 1, and the two scales 9 are respectively aligned with the two connecting sleeves 2. The movement distance of the pull rod 3 can be precisely adjusted by using the scales 9, making the width adjustment of the pull rod more accurate.
[0031] Preferably, a second rubber sleeve 11 is fitted onto the handle 31. The second rubber sleeve 11 increases the friction between the hand and the handle 31, preventing slippage when pulling the suitcase using the handle 31.
[0032] Preferably, a third rubber sleeve 12 is fitted onto the horizontal part. The third rubber sleeve 12 increases the friction between the hand and the pull rod 3, preventing slippage when pulling the suitcase with the pull rod 3.
[0033] Preferably, a dustproof rubber strip 14 is provided between the fixed frame 1 and the transparent plate 8, and the dustproof rubber strip 14 has a through hole for the connecting sleeve 2 to pass through. The dustproof rubber strip 14 can prevent dust and other impurities from entering the interior of the fixed frame 1 from the top. When adjusting the width of the pull rod 3, the dustproof rubber strip 14 can be stretched and compressed. Example 2:
[0034] like Figure 1-7 As shown, a suitcase includes a suitcase body and the aforementioned adjustable width pull rod structure, and also includes a mounting plate 15; the fixing frame 1 is connected to the mounting plate 15, and the mounting plate 15 is connected to the suitcase body by fasteners.
[0035] Preferably, the fixing frame 1 and the mounting plate 15 are connected by a locking assembly; the locking assembly includes a locking block 16 and a second elastic member 17; the locking block 16 is installed in the slide groove of the fixing frame 1, one end of the second elastic member 17 is connected to the slide groove, the other end of the second elastic member 17 is connected to the locking block 16, and the second elastic member 17 drives the locking block 16 to engage with the locking groove of the mounting plate 15.
[0036] Preferably, the system also includes two connecting rods 18 and four locking components distributed at the four corners of the fixed frame 1. The connecting rods 18 are connected between two upper and lower locking blocks 16 located on the same side. The fixed frame 1 has an operating hole with two dustproof rubber sheets 19 on it, with the sides of the two dustproof rubber sheets 19 close to each other. The transparent plate 8 has clearance holes corresponding to the operating holes. When the pull rod 3 is damaged and needs repair, a hand is inserted into the fixed frame 1 through the operating hole, and the connecting rods 18 are moved closer together. The locking blocks 16 slide close to each other and disengage from the slots. Then, the fixed frame 1 can be detached from the mounting plate 15, thus facilitating the repair or replacement of the pull rod 3.
[0037] The present application has been described in detail above. Specific examples have been used to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of the present application. The description of the above embodiments is only for the purpose of helping to understand the method and core ideas of the present application. At the same time, for those skilled in the art, there will be changes in the specific implementation methods and application scope based on the ideas of the present application. Therefore, the content of this specification should not be construed as a limitation of the present application.
