Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of positioning device protection technology, specifically a drop protection structure for GPS positioning devices. Background Technology

[0002] GPS (Global Positioning System) devices are used to receive and analyze orbital and time information from radio waves transmitted back by several satellites in space to calculate the longitude, latitude, horizontal altitude, and speed of movement of the GPS receiver. GPS devices are relatively delicate electronic devices that require protection against drops. While structures such as foam sleeves and shock-resistant fiber layers can provide some protection, their effectiveness is not ideal for GPS devices, and they are also inconvenient to use.

[0003] While searching for drop-proof structures in existing technologies, patent CN113055519A was discovered. This patent is a valuable technical document for drop protection of smartphones. As it also falls under the category of electronic products, it can be used as a reference. It features structures such as a first shell and a first elastic shell, utilizing shock-absorbing fluid for cushioning, resulting in significant shock absorption. The elastic shell prevents the phone screen from contacting the ground during a fall. However, a problem exists: while the elastic shell can cushion impacts, its sealing effect is not good. If a similar elastic wrapping structure is adopted, improvements to waterproofing should be considered when using GPS positioning devices to adapt to outdoor and high-humidity mountainous areas. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a drop-proof protection structure for GPS positioning devices.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0006] This utility model is a drop-proof protection structure for GPS positioning devices, including a locator:

[0007] The locator is fixedly equipped with an anti-collision shell on its outer side;

[0008] The inner cavity of the anti-collision shell is provided with a ventilation groove, and a protective ring is fixedly connected to the inner cavity of the anti-collision shell. The protective ring is placed in an L-shaped frustum formed inside the anti-collision shell. A pad is fixed at the bottom of the locator, and a sealing ring is connected to the outer periphery of the pad. The sealing ring contacts the protective ring, and the main body of the locator is sealed and connected to the inside of the anti-collision shell through the protective ring and the sealing ring.

[0009] Furthermore, the inner cavity at the top of the anti-collision shell is provided with positioning holes, and there are several positioning holes.

[0010] Furthermore, a positioning head is fixedly connected to the top of the positioner.

[0011] Furthermore, a protective ring is movably connected to the outer side of the locator. The protective ring is made of silicone material, which provides better cushioning.

[0012] Furthermore, a protective base plate is movably connected to the inner cavity of the protective ring, and a limiting post is fixedly connected to the outer side of the protective base plate. Four limiting posts are symmetrically arranged in a rectangular pattern. A rotating post is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the protective base plate. A limiting groove is opened on the inner circular wall of the bottom end of the anti-collision shell. Four limiting grooves are symmetrically arranged, and the limiting grooves and limiting posts are in a concave-convex fit.

[0013] This utility model has the following beneficial effects: The anti-collision shell consists of a protective ring and an anti-collision shell. The protective ring acts as a buffer against impacts and is made of silicone, which has high wear resistance and high impact absorption. The anti-collision shell is located on the outermost side of the positioner and is made of glass fiber reinforced plastic, which has high strength and is suitable for placing the positioner inside the equipment, thus improving the anti-collision performance. Furthermore, there is a sealing ring at the bottom of the anti-collision shell, which is located between the protective ring and the pad. The sealing ring and the pad are both located at the bottom of the positioner. The sealing ring surrounds the outer ring at the bottom of the positioner. By pressing and sealing the protective ring, the sealing ring, and the pad together, the bottom of the positioner is not only anti-collision but also has a stronger sealing effect, preventing the positioner from malfunctioning due to water leakage.

[0021] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention.

[0022] Please see Figure 1-4 As shown, this utility model is a drop protection structure for GPS positioning devices, including a locator 1:

[0023] A shock-absorbing shell 4 is fixedly installed on the outside of the locator 1;

[0024] The inner cavity of the anti-collision housing 4 is provided with a ventilation groove 6, and a protective ring 7 is fixedly connected to the inner cavity of the anti-collision housing 4. The protective ring 7 is placed in the L-shaped frustum formed inside the anti-collision housing 4. A pad 9 is fixed at the bottom of the locator 1, and a sealing ring 8 is connected to the outer periphery of the pad 9. The sealing ring 8 contacts the protective ring 7, and the main body of the locator 1 is sealed and connected to the inside of the anti-collision housing 4 through the protective ring 7 and the sealing ring 8.

[0025] The sealing ring 8 is located between the protective ring 7 and the pad 9, and the sealing ring 8 and the pad 9 are both located at the bottom of the positioner 1. The sealing ring 8 surrounds the outer ring at the bottom of the positioner 1.

[0026] The inner cavity at the top of the anti-collision housing 4 has several positioning holes 5. A positioning head 2 is fixedly connected to the top of the positioner 1. The positioner is stabilized by the cooperation between the positioning head 2 and the positioning holes 5.

[0027] A protective ring 3 is provided between the locator 1 and the anti-collision housing 4, and the protective ring 3 forms an enclosing contact with the locator 1.

[0028] The protective ring 3 acts as a buffer against impact. The protective ring 3 is made of silicone material, which has high wear resistance and high impact absorption. The anti-collision shell 4 is set on the outermost side of the positioner 1. The anti-collision shell 4 is made of glass fiber reinforced plastic, which has high strength and is suitable for moving the positioner 1 to be placed inside the equipment, thereby improving the anti-collision performance.

[0029] When in use, after the positioner 1 is placed in, the protective ring 3 and the anti-collision shell 4 on the outside of the positioner 1 buffer the impact, and the anti-collision shell 4 prevents external collisions. The protective ring 7, the sealing ring 8 and the pad 9 are pressed together to form a seal. The bottom of the positioner 1 not only prevents collisions but also enhances the sealing effect, preventing the positioner 1 from malfunctioning due to water seepage caused by high humidity.

[0030] To ensure a secure connection, a protective base plate 10 is movably connected to the inner cavity of the protective ring 7. Limiting posts 11 are fixedly connected to the outer side of the protective base plate 10. Four limiting posts 11 are symmetrically arranged in a rectangular pattern. A rotating post 12 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the protective base plate 10. A limiting groove 13 is formed on the inner circular wall at the bottom end of the anti-collision housing 4. Four limiting grooves 13 are symmetrically arranged, and the limiting grooves 13 and the limiting posts 11 are in a concave-convex fit. The protective base plate 10 is essentially a cover that can detach from the anti-collision housing 4. A large circular hole is opened at the bottom of the anti-collision housing 4 for the protective base plate 10 to pass through. When installing the protective base plate 10, pinch the rotating column 12 to align the limiting groove 13 with the limiting column 11, press the protective base plate 10 inward to allow the limiting column 11 to pass through the limiting groove 13, and then apply rotational force to the rotating column 12. The protective base plate 10 will rotate at a certain angle, and the limiting column 11 will be locked. When it is necessary to remove the protective base plate 10, rotate the protective base plate 10 to align the limiting groove 13 with the limiting column 11, and then pull the protective base plate 10 outward to separate the protective base plate 10 from the anti-collision shell 4. The locator 1 can then be removed for use.
