Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of glow stick technology, and in particular to a glow stick that can be interconnected. Background Technology
[0002] Glow sticks are widely used as a common luminous decorative item. However, traditional glow sticks are mostly single-function, only able to emit light independently and unable to be interconnected, which limits their flexibility and creativity in many scenarios.
[0003] Existing connectable glow stick products suffer from problems such as complex connection methods, unstable connections, and easy damage. For example, complex threaded connections require precise alignment and multiple rotations to complete the connection, which is time-consuming and laborious, and is prone to loosening due to shaking during use. Alternatively, glue connections are used, which are not only environmentally unfriendly, but also cannot be disassembled and adjusted after connection, lacking reusability. Therefore, in order to provide a simple, convenient, secure, and easy-to-operate connectable glow stick, a new type of connectable glow stick is proposed. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a type of interconnectable glow stick.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a fluorescent stick that can be interconnected, comprising a fluorescent stick body, wherein a first connecting component and a second connecting component are respectively provided at both ends of the fluorescent stick body, and the first connecting component and the second connecting component can be snapped together.
[0006] The first connecting component includes a fixing base, a snap-fit block, and a spring. The fixing base is fixedly installed at one end of the fluorescent stick body, and the snap-fit block can slide on the fixing base.
[0007] The second connecting component includes a retaining ring, which is fixedly installed at the end away from the fixing base;
[0008] The fixing ring has a snap-fit groove, and the snap-fit block can snap into the snap-fit groove;
[0009] The snap-fit block includes a pressing block and a connecting block, which are fixedly connected by a fixing plate.
[0010] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0011] A guide block is fixedly connected to the fixed plate, and a guide groove is provided on the guide block. A slider is fixedly connected inside the fixed seat, and the slider is slidably disposed in the guide groove.
[0012] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0013] A baffle is fixedly installed on the fixed base. The baffle is fixed at the outer circumference of the fixed base and is located between the pressing block and the slider.
[0014] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0015] A spring is installed inside the fixed base, and the spring pushes the fixed plate to move towards the baffle.
[0016] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0017] The pressing block and the connecting block are arranged in parallel, and both the pressing block and the connecting block point outward from the center of the fixed base.
[0018] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0019] The length of the pressing block is greater than the length of the connecting block.
[0020] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0021] The connecting block can be snapped into the snap-fit slot.
[0022] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0023] 1. This utility model sets a first connecting component and a second connecting component at both ends of the glow stick body and adopts a snap-fit connection method, which is simple and convenient to operate. Just press the pressing block of the first connecting component to make the connecting block retract and align with the snap-fit groove of the second connecting component, and release the pressing block to complete the connection. Compared with traditional threaded connection methods, it greatly saves connection time and effort and improves connection efficiency and connection stability.
[0024] 2. Among them, the spring in the first connecting component provides a stable elastic force for the connection. During the connection, the spring pushes the connecting block to be firmly locked in the locking groove, which effectively prevents loosening caused by external forces such as shaking after the connection, ensuring the firmness of the glow stick connection and enabling the glow stick to maintain a stable combination state during use.
[0025] 3. In addition, users can easily control the extension and retraction of the connecting block by pressing. The whole operation process is intuitive and simple, without the need for complicated operating skills or tools. Even children or first-time users can get started quickly. Attached Figure Description

[0033] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0034] Reference Figures 1-5 The present invention provides an embodiment of a fluorescent stick that can be connected to each other, including a fluorescent stick body 1, with a first connecting component 2 and a second connecting component 3 respectively provided at both ends of the fluorescent stick body 1, and the first connecting component 2 and the second connecting component 3 can be snapped together.
[0035] The first connecting component 2 includes a fixing base 21, a snap-fit block 22 and a spring 23. The fixing base 21 is fixedly installed at one end of the fluorescent stick body 1, and the snap-fit block 22 can slide on the fixing base 21.
[0036] The second connecting component 3 includes a retaining ring 31, which is fixedly installed at the end away from the fixing base 21;
[0037] The fixing ring 31 has a snap-fit groove 32, and the snap-fit block 22 can snap into the snap-fit groove 32.
[0038] In one specific embodiment, the snap-fit block 22 includes a pressing block 211 and a connecting block 224, and the pressing block 211 and the connecting block 224 are fixedly connected by a fixing plate 225.
[0039] In this embodiment, a guide block 222 is fixedly connected to the fixed plate 225, and a guide groove 223 is provided on the guide block 222. A slider 24 is fixedly connected inside the fixed seat 21, and the slider 24 is slidably disposed in the guide groove 223.
[0040] The pressing block 211, the connecting block 224 and the fixing plate 225 form a linked whole. The pressing block 211, as the external force receiving part, transmits the pressing pressure applied by the user to the fixing plate 225, which drives the connecting block 224 to slide in the fixing seat 21 through the guide structure. The guide groove 223 on the guide block 222 cooperates with the slider 24 in the fixing seat 21, which limits the locking block 22 to only move linearly in a specific direction.
[0041] Specifically, a baffle 25 is fixedly installed on the fixed base 21. The baffle 25 is fixed on the outer circumference of the fixed base 21 and is located between the pressing block 211 and the slider 24.
[0042] In this embodiment, a spring 23 is installed inside the fixing base 21, and the spring 23 pushes the fixing plate 225 to move towards the baffle 25;
[0043] Using the elastic force generated by the elastic deformation of the spring 23, the fixed plate 225 is pushed to move closer to the baffle 25 under normal conditions, so that the connecting block 224 is in the extended and ready-to-connect state; when connecting, the elastic force can help the connecting block 224 to be firmly locked and also provide resistance against the pressing external force.
[0044] Specifically, the pressing block 211 and the connecting block 224 are arranged in parallel, and both the pressing block 211 and the connecting block 224 point outward from the center of the fixing base 21.
[0045] The length of the pressing block 211 is greater than the length of the connecting block 224, and the connecting block 224 can be snapped into the snap-fit groove 32.
[0046] Working principle: When connecting two glow sticks, align the first connecting component 2 of one glow stick with the second connecting component 3 of the other glow stick, and then press the pressing block 211 of the first connecting component 2; the pressing action causes the pressing block 211 to drive the fixing plate 225 to move away from the baffle 25 against the elastic force of the spring 23, thereby driving the connecting block 224 to move synchronously, so that the connecting block 224 retracts into the fixing seat 21 a certain distance. At this time, align the connecting block 224 with the snap-fit groove 32 on the fixing ring 31 of the second connecting component 3, and push the two glow sticks closer until the connecting block 224 enters the appropriate position inside the snap-fit groove 32;
[0047] When the connecting block 224 is fully engaged in the snap-fit groove 32, the pressing block 211 is released, the spring 23 returns to its original shape, and its elastic force pushes the fixing plate 225 to move closer to the baffle 25, which in turn drives the connecting block 224 to be further stabilized in the snap-fit groove 32, so that the two glow sticks are connected together by the stable snap-fit action between the first connecting component 2 and the second connecting component 3, thus realizing the function of mutual connection.
[0048] To disassemble the connected glow sticks, press the pressing block 211 again to allow the connecting block 224 to retract into the fixing base 21 against the elastic force of the spring 23, thus disengaging it from the snap-fit groove 32. Then the two glow sticks can be separated.
[0049] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
