[0024] The present disclosure will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the disclosure. Furthermore, it should be noted that, for ease of description, only the parts relevant to the present disclosure are shown in the accompanying drawings.

[0025] It should be noted that, where there is no conflict, the embodiments and features described in this disclosure can be combined with each other. The technical solutions of this disclosure will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0026] Unless otherwise stated, the exemplary implementations / embodiments shown are to be understood as providing exemplary features of various details that provide ways in which the technical concepts of this disclosure can be implemented in practice. Therefore, unless otherwise stated, the features of various implementations / embodiments may be additionally combined, separated, interchanged and / or rearranged without departing from the technical concepts of this disclosure.

[0027] The use of crosshairs and / or shading in the accompanying drawings is generally used to clarify the boundaries between adjacent components. Thus, unless otherwise stated, the presence or absence of crosshairs or shading does not convey or indicate any preference or requirement for the specific material, material properties, dimensions, proportions, commonalities between the illustrated components, or any other characteristics, properties, etc., of the components. Furthermore, in the accompanying drawings, the dimensions and relative dimensions of components may be exaggerated for clarity and / or descriptive purposes. When exemplary embodiments can be implemented differently, a specific process sequence may be performed in a different order than that described. For example, two consecutively described processes may be performed substantially simultaneously or in the reverse order of their description. Furthermore, the same reference numerals denote the same components.

[0028] When a component is referred to as being "on" or "above" another component, "connected to," or "joined to" another component, the component may be directly on, directly connected to, or directly joined to the other component, or there may be intermediate components. However, when a component is referred to as being "directly on" another component, "directly connected to," or "directly joined to" another component, there are no intermediate components. Therefore, the term "connection" can refer to a physical connection, an electrical connection, etc., and may or may not have intermediate components.

[0029] For descriptive purposes, this disclosure may use spatial relative terms such as “below,” “under,” “below,” “down,” “above,” “above,” “higher,” and “side (e.g., in a “sidewall”)” to describe the relationship between one component and another component as shown in the accompanying drawings. In addition to the orientations depicted in the drawings, the spatial relative terms are also intended to encompass different orientations of the device during use, operation, and / or manufacture. For example, if the device in the drawings is flipped, a component described as “below” or “under” another component or feature would subsequently be positioned “above” said other component or feature. Thus, the exemplary term “below” can encompass both “above” and “below” orientations. Furthermore, the device may be otherwise positioned (e.g., rotated 90 degrees or in other orientations), thus interpreting the spatial relative descriptive terms used herein accordingly.

[0030] The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments and is not intended to be limiting. As used herein, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, the singular forms “a” and “the” are intended to include the plural forms as well. Furthermore, when the terms “comprising” and / or “including” and variations thereof are used in this specification, it indicates the presence of the stated features, integrals, steps, operations, parts, components, and / or groups thereof, but does not exclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, integrals, steps, operations, parts, components, and / or groups thereof. It should also be noted that, as used herein, the terms “substantially,” “about,” and other similar terms are used as approximate terms rather than as terms of degree, thus explaining the inherent biases in measurements, calculated values, and / or provided values ​​that would be recognized by one of ordinary skill in the art.

[0031] like Figure 1-6 As shown, a three-point expansion mechanism disclosed herein may include components such as an expansion mechanism and a base mechanism;

[0032] like Figure 1-4 As shown, it includes a housing 1, an inner groove 2, an upper cavity 3, a lower plug 4, a piston 5, an upper rod 6, a mounting rod 7, a mounting groove 8, a core groove 9, a movable core 10, a rib groove 11, an elastic rib 12, a first injection port 25, a first channel 26, a second injection port 27, a second channel 28, and a sealing ring 29.

[0033] The inner groove 2 begins at the center of the lower surface of the housing 1. The upper cavity 3 begins inside the housing 1, located on one side of the inner groove 2. The lower plug 4 is disposed within the inner groove 2. The piston 5 is disposed within the inner groove 2 and above the lower plug 4. The upper rod 6 is mounted at the center of the upper surface of the piston 5, with a conical end extending into the upper cavity 3. The mounting groove 8 is opened at the center of the lower surface of the piston 5. The mounting rod 7 is disposed within the mounting groove 8, with its lower end fixedly connected to the lower plug 4. Three core grooves 9 are evenly distributed on the side of the housing 1 and communicate with the upper cavity 3. Each movable core 10 is disposed within its corresponding core groove 9. Each of the aforementioned grooves 11 is formed on the side of the corresponding movable core 10. The elastic ribs 12 are arranged in the three grooves 11. The three first injection ports 25 are formed on the surface of the housing 1. The first channel 26 is formed inside the housing 1 and communicates with the first injection port 25 and the inner groove 2. The three second injection ports 27 are formed on the surface of the housing 1. The second channel 28 is formed inside the housing 1 and communicates with the second injection port 27 and the inner groove 2. The upper rod 6, the lower plug 4 and the piston 5 are all provided with sealing grooves on their sides. Each of the aforementioned sealing rings 29 is respectively arranged in the corresponding sealing groove.

[0034] During core expansion, oil is injected into the first injection port 25. The oil enters the inner groove 2 through the first channel 26 and is positioned below the piston 5. As more and more oil is injected, it pushes the piston 5 upward. The rising piston 5 drives the upper rod 6 upward. The cone at the top of the upper rod 6 compresses the arc-shaped grooves 13 of each movable core 10, thereby causing the three movable cores 10 to move away from each other, thus achieving core expansion. At the same time, the three movable cores 10 that are moving away from each other stretch the elastic ribs 12. To release the expansion, oil is injected into the second injection port 27. The oil then enters the inner groove 2 through the second channel 28 and is positioned above the piston 5, thereby pushing the piston 5 downward. The descending piston 5 squeezes the oil in the inner groove 2 below the piston 5 out of the first channel 26 and the first injection port 25, while simultaneously causing the upper rod 6 to descend. Without the compression of the cone of the upper rod 6, the stretched elastic ribs 12 rebound and cause the three movable cores 10 to move closer to each other, thereby retracting into the shell 1. The operation is complete.

[0035] like Figure 4-6 As shown, the base mechanism includes a base 14, a slot 15, a cavity 16, a limiting plate 17, a spring 18, a locking piece 19, a central groove 20, a winding rod 21, a pull rope 22, a bottom groove 23, and a knob 24.

[0036] The base 14 is located at the port of the inner groove 2 and is fixedly connected to the lower plug 4. Multiple slots 15 are formed on the inner wall of the inner groove 2. Four cavities 16 are rectangularly formed inside the base 14. Each limiting plate 17 is located in the corresponding cavity 16. Each spring 18 is located in the corresponding cavity 16 and is located on one side of the limiting plate 17. Each clip 19 is installed at the center of the other side of the corresponding limiting plate 17 and extends into the corresponding slot 15. The central groove 20 is formed in the center of the interior of the base 14. The winding rod 21 is rotatably installed in the central groove 20. Each pull rope 22 is installed at the center of the side of the corresponding limiting plate 17 and its end extends into the central groove 20 and is fixedly connected to the winding rod 21. The bottom groove 23 is formed in the center of the lower surface of the base 14. The knob 24 is installed at the end of the winding rod 21 that extends into the bottom groove 23.

[0037] When disassembling the base 14, simply rotate the knob 24 to rotate the winding rod 21 to wind the four pull ropes 22, thereby pulling the four limit plates 17 to move. Each moving limit plate 17 compresses the spring 18 and at the same time, it will also drive the clip 19 to move out of the slot 15 and into the cavity 16, thus releasing the fixation of the base 14. After that, the base 14 can be removed from the housing 1 by connecting the lower plug 4, and the internal structure of the inner groove 2 can be inspected.

[0038] During reinstallation, rotate knob 24 to allow each clip 19 to enter the cavity 16 through the above operation. Then, insert the base 14 and lower plug 4 into the inner groove 2, and align the four clips 19 with the four slots 15. Release knob 24 to allow each spring 18 to rebound and drive the limiting plate 17 to return to its original position. The returned limiting plate 17 drives the clips 19 to insert into the aligned slots 15, thereby re-fixing the base 14 onto the housing 1.

[0039] In the description of this specification, the references to terms such as "one embodiment / mode," "some embodiments / modes," "example," "specific example," or "some examples," etc., indicate that a specific feature, structure, material, or characteristic described in connection with that embodiment / mode or example is included in at least one embodiment / mode or example of this application.
