Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0024] Reference Figures 1-2 An embodiment of this utility model provides a classification indicator with an adjustable structure, comprising a base 1, a connecting post 2 fixedly connected to the top of the base 1, an indicator post 3 slidably connected to the inner wall of the connecting post 2, multiple fixing rings 5 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the indicator post 3, multiple fixing cams 6 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the indicator post 3, a first spring 7 fixedly connected to the bottom end of the fixing cams 6, multiple adjusting cams 8 slidably connected to the outer wall of the indicator post 3, multiple connecting blocks 9 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the adjusting cams 8, a buckle 15 slidably connected to the inner wall of the connecting block 9, an indicator shell 16 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the buckle 15, and a quick-release assembly provided inside the connecting block 9.
[0025] Specifically, a cylindrical base 1 with a larger diameter is used to ensure the stability of the sign and prevent it from collapsing due to accidental contact. The entire indicator device is mounted on top of the base 1, with the connecting column 2 fixedly installed on the base 1 for stability. The indicator column 3 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the connecting column 2 to allow for subsequent height adjustment. Multiple fixing rings 5 and fixing cams 6 are fixedly connected to the top and outer wall of the indicator column 3. An adjusting cam 8 is installed between the fixing rings 5 and the fixing cam 6. Multiple connecting blocks 9 can be installed on the outer wall of the adjusting cam 8 simultaneously, allowing for the installation of multiple sets of indicator signs to increase the indication information and accuracy. A first spring 7 is installed at the bottom of the fixing cam 6 for limiting and resetting. When angle adjustment is required, the connecting block 9 is pinched to raise the adjusting cam 8 and compress the first spring 7. Then, the connecting block 9 is manually rotated to the appropriate angle and lowered to complete the angle adjustment, which is convenient and quick.
[0026] Reference Figure 3 The quick-release assembly includes a first slider 11, which is slidably connected to the inner wall of the connecting block 9. A quick-release button 10 is fixedly connected to the left outer wall of the first slider 11. A second slider 12 is fixedly connected to the rear outer wall of the first slider 11. A slide rod 13 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the connecting block 9. A second spring 14 is sleeved on the outer wall of the slide rod 13. A working groove is opened in the inner wall of the connecting block 9. The working groove is opened and penetrates the inner wall of the first slider 11. A buckle 15 is slidably connected in the working groove.
[0027] Specifically, when the sign needs to be installed quickly, press the quick-release button 10. The quick-release button 10 will cause the first slider 11 to be pushed inward. The second slider 12, which is fixedly installed on the first slider 11, will also move and compress the second spring 14. When the first slider 11 moves to the deepest part of the inner wall of the connecting block 9, the slot on the first slider 11 and the slot on the connecting block 9 are aligned and in a straight line. At this time, insert the buckle 15 into the working groove notch of the connecting block 9 to the deepest part. After releasing the hand, the U-shaped design of the buckle 15 will fit into the notch of the first slider 11 and be fixed in the connecting block 9 under the elastic force of the second spring 14 to complete the installation. When disassembling, press the quick-release button 10 again to quickly pull it out. With the help of this quick-release structure, the quick installation and disassembly of the indicator shell 16 and the sign 17 can be completed, which is convenient and quick.
[0028] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The distance between multiple fixed rings 5 and fixed cam 6 is the same. The upper surface of fixed cam 6 is provided with a rack, and the lower surface of adjusting cam 8 is provided with a rack. Fixed cam 6 and adjusting cam 8 are meshed and connected.
[0029] Specifically, the equidistant distances between multiple fixed rings 5 and fixed cams 6 ensure that the distances between subsequent indicator housings 16 are also equidistant, contributing to an aesthetically pleasing appearance. Racks are mounted on the surfaces of fixed cams 6 and adjusting cams 8, with an angle difference of 5° between each rack. This allows for precise control of the indicator's rotation angle, demonstrating rigorous scientific principles. The meshing of the racks ensures the stability of the device after angle adjustment, preventing slippage.
[0030] Reference Figure 4 The inner wall of the indicator post 3 has multiple height grooves 18 that are opened and pass through it. The distance between the multiple height grooves 18 is the same. An adjusting bolt 19 is threadedly connected to the inner wall of one of the height grooves 18. The adjusting bolt 19 is threadedly connected to and passes through the inner wall of the connecting post 2.
[0031] Specifically, when the indicated height needs to be adjusted, manually unscrew the adjusting bolt 19, hold the indicating post 3 to adjust the position of the height groove 18 until the appropriate height is reached, tighten the adjusting bolt 19 so that it is inserted into one of the height grooves 18, and tighten it by thread to determine the height of the indicating device. The design of multiple height grooves 18 and the fact that the height difference between each height groove 18 is the same expands the adjustable range of the indicated device height and increases the accuracy of the adjustment.
[0032] Reference Figure 1 One of the adjusting cams 8 has an indicator screen 4 fixedly connected to its outer wall.
[0033] Specifically, an indicator screen 4 is installed on the outer wall of the top adjusting cam 8 to increase electronic display functionality and ensure the diversity and real-time nature of the indicator information.
[0034] Reference Figure 4 An indicator plate 17 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the indicator housing 16.
[0035] Specifically, when only the indication content needs to be changed without changing the indication angle, the replacement can be completed by simply sliding it out from the inner wall slot of the indication housing 16 or by installing the indication sign 17, which increases convenience.
[0036] Working principle: When using this category indicator, first print the content of the book to be indicated on the indicator 17. Then, install the indicator 17 into the indicator housing 16 and secure it. After placing the entire base 1 in the appropriate position, press the quick-release button 10 until it reaches the deepest point, triggering the quick-release mechanism inside. This will install the latch 15 at one end of the indicator housing 16 into the connecting block 9 and hold it in place. Then release the quick-release button 10, and the indicator housing 16 will be quickly installed onto the connecting block 9. Then, install the remaining indicator housings 16 in sequence. When adjusting the installation angle, pinch the connecting block 9 and lift it upwards to drive the adjusting cam 8 to compress the first spring 7. Rotate to the appropriate angle and then lower it, allowing the rack at the lower end of the adjusting cam 8 to mesh with the rack on the upper surface of the fixed cam 6 to complete the angle adjustment. Then, complete the angle adjustment of the remaining indicator housings 16 in sequence. Finally, adjust the angle and content of the indicator screen 4 to complete the installation. When the indicated height of the entire device needs to be adjusted, loosen the adjusting bolt 19, lift the indicating column 3 until a suitable height and height groove 18 are found, then tighten the adjusting bolt 19 to insert it into the height groove 18 to complete the installation. This completes the installation and adjustment of the entire device.
