DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0022] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the present application more clear, the present application is further described in detail below in combination with the drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present application, and are not used to limit the present application.

[0023] Please refer to Figures 1-7 ​As shown, the present application proposes a selfie stick 1, which comprises a handle 10 and a supporting leg 20. The handle 10 comprises a side wall 11 and an end wall 12 connected with the side wall 11, and the side wall 11 and the end wall 12 jointly enclose a receiving cavity. The end wall 12 has an opening 12a communicating with the receiving cavity, and the end wall 12 further has a first abutting surface 12b facing away from the opening 12a and a second abutting surface 12c facing the opening 12a. The supporting leg 20 is movably connected with the side wall 11 and the end wall 12. A first end 20a of the supporting leg 20 abuts against the first abutting surface 12b to limit the movement of the supporting leg 20 relative to the end wall 12 in a direction of extending out of the opening 12a, so as to position the supporting leg 20 in a storage state. A second end 20b of the supporting leg 20 abuts against the second abutting surface 12c to limit the movement of the supporting leg 20 relative to the end wall 12 in a direction of extending into the opening 12a, so as to position the supporting leg 20 in a supporting state. The first end 20a and the second end 20b are two ends of the supporting leg 20 away from each other, and the supporting leg 20 can be switched between the storage state and the supporting state.

[0024] The specific structure of the selfie stick 1 will be introduced below. Figures 1-13 The specific structure of the selfie stick 1 will be introduced below.

[0025] As shown, the selfie stick 1 comprises a handle 10 and a supporting leg 20. Figures 1-7

[0026] The handle 10 is used for the user to hold as a handgrip of the selfie stick 1. The specific shape of the handle 10 is not limited herein, and the designer can make reasonable design according to actual needs. For example, the shape of the cross section of the handle 10 in the direction perpendicular to the central axis MM' can be but not limited to a rectangle or a semicircle. The specific material of the handle 10 is not limited herein, and the designer can make reasonable selection according to actual needs. For example, the material of the handle 10 can be but not limited to plastic or rubber.

[0027] The handle 10 comprises a side wall 11 and an end wall 12 connected with the side wall 11, and the side wall 11 and the end wall 12 jointly enclose a receiving cavity. The end wall 12 can be in an integral structure with the side wall 11 or in a split structure. For example, when the end wall 12 is in an integral structure with the side wall 11, the end wall 12 can be but not limited to integrally formed with the side wall 11 by means of injection molding or 3D printing. For another example, when the end wall 12 is in a split structure with the side wall 11, the end wall 12 can be but not limited to detachably connected with the side wall 11 by at least one of screwing, clamping or inserting, or the end wall 12 can be but not limited to non-detachably connected with the side wall 11 by means of riveting or gluing.

[0028] The end wall 12 has an opening 12a communicating with the receiving cavity, and the end wall 12 further has a first abutting surface 12b facing away from the opening 12a and a second abutting surface 12c facing the opening 12a.​

[0029] The support leg 20 is an auxiliary support leg of the selfie stick 1, which is used to contact with a surface (which can be a ground or a table) to release the user's hands for long-distance shooting. The specific structure of the support leg 20 will be introduced below.

[0030] The support leg 20 is movably connected with the side wall 11 and the end wall 12.

[0031] The first end 20a of the support leg 20 abuts against the first abutting surface 12b to limit the movement of the support leg 20 relative to the end wall 12 in the direction of the extending opening 12a, so as to position the support leg 20 in the storage state. The support leg 20 has the storage state, in which the support leg 20 is stored in the accommodating cavity, and the first end 20a of the support leg 20 abuts against the first abutting surface 12b to limit the movement of the support leg 20 relative to the end wall 12 in the direction of the extending opening 12a.

[0032] The second end 20b of the support leg 20 abuts against the second abutting surface 12c to limit the movement of the support leg 20 relative to the end wall 12 in the direction of the extending opening 12a, so as to position the support leg 20 in the supporting state. The support leg 20 has the supporting state, in which the support leg 20 extends out of the accommodating cavity, and the second end 20b of the support leg 20 abuts against the second abutting surface 12c to limit the movement of the support leg 20 relative to the end wall 12 in the direction of the extending opening 12a.

[0033] The first end 20a and the second end 20b are two ends of the support leg 20 away from each other, and the support leg 20 can be switched between the storage state and the supporting state. It should be noted that the switching process of the support leg 20 between the storage state and the supporting state can be manually realized or automatically realized; for example, when the switching process of the support leg 20 between the storage state and the supporting state is realized manually, the user directly pulls the support leg 20 outward to make the support leg 20 extend out of the accommodating cavity, so as to switch the support leg 20 from the storage state to the supporting state, and vice versa, the user directly pushes the support leg 20 inward to make the support leg 20 extend into the accommodating cavity, so as to switch the support leg 20 from the supporting state to the storage state; for another example, when the switching process of the support leg 20 between the storage state and the supporting state is realized automatically, the user triggers the button to make the controller of the selfie stick 1 control the power source to drive the transmission mechanism to drive the support leg 20 to move towards the direction of the extending opening 12a, so as to make the support leg 20 extend out of the accommodating cavity, thereby switching the support leg 20 from the storage state to the supporting state, and vice versa, the user triggers the button to make the controller of the selfie stick 1 control the power source to drive the transmission mechanism to drive the support leg 20 to move towards the direction of the extending opening 12a, so as to make the support leg 20 extend into the accommodating cavity, thereby switching the support leg 20 from the supporting state to the storage state; here, the specific forms of the power source and the transmission mechanism are not limited, and the designer can reasonably design according to the actual needs, in addition, when the switching process of the support leg 20 between the storage state and the supporting state is realized automatically by the above-mentioned power source and transmission mechanism, the first abutting surface 12b supports the first end 20a of the support leg 20 in the storage state, so that the force of the support leg 20 is not completely borne by the transmission mechanism and the power source, and the second abutting surface 12c supports the second end 20b of the support leg 20 in the supporting state, so that the force of the support leg 20 is not completely borne by the transmission mechanism and the power source, thereby reducing the mechanical loss of the transmission mechanism and the power source, and prolonging the service life of the transmission mechanism and the power source.

[0034] When the supporting leg 20 is accommodated in the accommodating cavity, the first end 20a of the supporting leg 20 abuts against the first abutting surface 12b, and the first abutting surface 12b is arranged away from the opening 12a, so that the first abutting surface 12b limits the movement of the supporting leg 20 in the direction of extending out of the opening 12a, and the supporting leg 20 can be stably positioned in the accommodated state in the accommodating cavity, and the supporting leg 20 is not prone to loosening, the overall space occupancy of the selfie stick 1 is small, and the selfie stick 1 is convenient to accommodate. When the supporting leg 20 extends out of the accommodating cavity, the second end 20b of the supporting leg 20 abuts against the second abutting surface 12c, and the second abutting surface 12c is arranged to face the opening 12a, so that the second abutting surface 12c limits the movement of the supporting leg 20 in the direction of extending into the opening 12a, and the supporting leg 20 can be stably positioned in the supporting state of extending out of the accommodating cavity, and the supporting leg 20 is not prone to loosening and can be stably supported on the surface to be contacted, so as to provide stable support for the shooting device, and the user can release both hands to perform long-distance shooting.

[0035] As shown in Figure 8 The end wall 12 includes a first wall plate 121, a second wall plate 122 arranged around the circumference of the first wall plate 121 and connected with the first wall plate 121, and a third wall plate 123 connected with the first wall plate 121 on the side facing the side wall 11, and the third wall plate 123 is spaced apart from the second wall plate 122 to form a movable gap for the movement of the supporting leg 20. The region of the first wall plate 121 corresponding to the movable gap has the opening 12a, and the first wall plate 121 has the first abutting surface 12b at the edge position adjacent to the opening 12a, and the third wall plate 123 has the second abutting surface 12c at the position corresponding to the opening 12a.

[0036] The second wall plate 122 and the first wall plate 121 can be but not limited to integrally formed by injection molding or 3D printing. The third wall plate 123 and the first wall plate 121 can be an integral structure or a split structure. For example, when the third wall plate 123 and the first wall plate 121 are an integral structure, the third wall plate 123 can be but not limited to integrally formed with the first wall plate 121 by injection molding or 3D printing. For another example, when the third wall plate 123 and the first wall plate 121 are a split structure, the third wall plate 123 can be but not limited to detachably connected with the first wall plate 121 by at least one of screwing, clamping or inserting, and the third wall plate 123 can be but not limited to non-detachably connected with the first wall plate 121 by riveting or gluing.

[0037] When the supporting leg 20 is in the storage state of being stored in the accommodating cavity, the first end 20a of the supporting leg 20 abuts against the first abutting surface 12b of the first wall plate 121, the first abutting surface 12b limits the movement direction of the supporting leg 20 in the extending opening 12a, so that the supporting leg 20 can be positioned in the storage state of being stored in the accommodating cavity, at this time, the overall space occupancy of the selfie stick 1 is small, and the user can conveniently store the selfie stick 1; when the supporting leg 20 is in the supporting state of extending out of the accommodating cavity, the second end 20b of the supporting leg 20 abuts against the second abutting surface 12c of the third wall plate 123, the second abutting surface 12c limits the movement direction of the supporting leg 20 in the extending opening 12a, so that the supporting leg 20 can be positioned in the supporting state of extending out of the accommodating cavity, at this time, the selfie stick 1 can be in contact with the surface to be contacted through the supporting leg 20, and the user can conveniently release both hands to take a distance shot.

[0038] As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 5 , the handle 10 defines a middle axis MM', and the distance between the first abutting surface 12b and the middle axis MM' gradually decreases from the side close to the opening 12a to the side far away from the opening 12a. The supporting leg 20 comprises a rod body 21 and a seat body 22, the rod body 21 is movably connected with the side wall 11 and the end wall 12, and the seat body 22 is connected with the bottom end of the rod body 21 as the first end 20a of the supporting leg 20; when the supporting leg 20 is positioned in the above-mentioned storage state, the seat body 22 abuts against the first abutting surface 12b.

[0039] Here, the specific connection mode between the seat body 22 and the rod body 21 is not limited, and the designer can reasonably design according to the actual needs; for example, the seat body 22 can be but not limited to connected with the rod body 21 in a detachable manner through at least one of the modes such as screwing, clamping or inserting; for another example, the seat body 22 can be but not limited to connected with the rod body 21 in an undetachable manner through the modes such as gluing, riveting, injection molding or 3D printing.

[0040] By designing the first abutting surface 12b as an inclined surface, the first abutting surface 12b can effectively limit the movement direction of the seat body 22 in the extending opening 12a, so that the supporting leg 20 can be stably positioned in the storage state of being stored in the accommodating cavity, and the seat body 22 can smoothly separate from the limitation of the first abutting surface 12b under the action of external force, so that the supporting leg 20 can be switched from the storage state to the supporting state.

[0041] Specifically, as shown in Figure 9 , the specific design of the seat body 22 and the specific connection mode between the seat body 22 and the rod body 21 can be but not limited to one or more of the following embodiments.

[0042] In the first embodiment, the seat body 22 comprises a foot base 221 connected with the bottom end of the rod body 21 and a first abutting protrusion 222 connected with the side of the foot base 221 facing the third wall plate 123. When the support foot 20 is positioned in the storage state, the first abutting protrusion 222 abuts against the first abutting surface 12b. The first abutting protrusion 222 is integrally formed with the foot base 221 by injection molding or 3D printing. Through the foot base 221 and the first abutting protrusion 222, the foot base 221 is used to realize the connection between the first abutting protrusion 222 and the rod body 21, the first abutting protrusion 222 is used to abut against the first abutting surface 12b, and the design of the first abutting protrusion 222 can ensure that the first abutting protrusion 222 and the first abutting surface 12b form effective contact when they abut against each other, so that the first abutting surface 12b can effectively limit the movement of the first abutting protrusion 222 in the direction of the extension opening 12a, so that the support foot 20 can be stably positioned in the storage state in the storage cavity. It can also facilitate the foot base 221 to drive the first abutting protrusion 222 to smoothly separate from the limitation of the first abutting surface 12b under the action of external force, so that the support foot 20 can be switched from the storage state to the support state.

[0043] In the second embodiment, the seat body 22 is detachably connected with the rod body 21. The bottom end of the rod body 21 is provided with a through hole, and the seat body 22 is provided with a fixing hole corresponding to the through hole. The support foot 20 further comprises a fastener (not shown in the figure), which is inserted through the through hole and connected with the fixing hole to fix the seat body 22 to the rod body 21. For example, the fixing hole can be a threaded hole, and the fastener is a screw. The screw is inserted through the through hole and threadedly connected with the threaded hole to fix the seat body 22 to the rod body 21. For another example, the fixing hole can also be a clamping hole, and the fastener is a clamping pin. The clamping pin is inserted through the through hole and clampingly connected with the clamping hole to fix the seat body 22 to the rod body 21. For another example, the fixing hole can also be a plug hole, and the fastener is a plug pin. The plug pin is inserted through the through hole and plugly connected with the plug hole to fix the seat body 22 to the rod body 21. By designing the seat body 22 to be detachably connected with the rod body 21, the replacement of the seat body 22 after wear is facilitated, thereby ensuring that the support foot 20 can be stably supported on the surface to be contacted.

[0044] In the third embodiment, the seat body 22 is elastic. The material of the seat body 22 can be but is not limited to elastic rubber or elastic silica gel. By designing the seat body 22 to be elastic, on the one hand, the elastic seat body 22 has the effect of buffering and damping, which can reduce the shaking of the selfie stick 1 when shooting at a long distance, thereby improving the shooting quality of the picture. On the other hand, the static friction between the elastic seat body 22 and the surface to be contacted is large, which can improve the stability of the selfie stick 1 placed on the surface to be contacted when shooting at a long distance.

[0045] As Figures 6-8As shown, the third wall plate 123 comprises a plate body 1231, a cantilever 1232 and a second abutting protrusion 1233; the plate body 1231 is connected with the first wall plate 121, and the circumferential side of the plate body 1231 is recessed inward at the position corresponding to the opening 12a to form an avoiding groove 1234; the cantilever 1232 is located in the avoiding groove 1234 and connected with the plate body 1231 at one end; the second abutting protrusion 1233 is connected with the side of the cantilever 1232 facing the second wall plate 122, and the surface of the second abutting protrusion 1233 facing the opening 12a serves as the second abutting surface 12c.

[0046] Wherein, the plate body 1231, the cantilever 1232 and the second abutting protrusion 1233 can be integrally formed by injection molding or 3D printing, but not limited thereto. From the side close to the opening 12a to the side far away from the opening 12a, the distance between the second abutting surface 12c and the middle axis MM’ of the handle 10 gradually increases.

[0047] By designing the second abutting protrusion 1233, the second abutting surface 12c of the second abutting protrusion 1233 forms effective contact with the second end 20b of the supporting leg 20, which can ensure that the second abutting surface 12c effectively limits the movement of the supporting leg 20 in the direction of extending out of the opening 12a, so that the supporting leg 20 can be stably positioned in the supporting state outside the accommodating cavity; by designing the cantilever 1232, the cantilever 1232 is suitable for elastic deformation under the extrusion of the second end 20b of the supporting leg 20, so as to drive the second abutting surface 12c of the second abutting protrusion 1233 to smoothly separate from the second end 20b of the supporting leg 20, so that the supporting leg 20 is switched from the supporting state to the storage state; by designing the avoiding groove 1234, the avoiding groove 1234 can provide sufficient avoiding space for the elastic deformation of the cantilever 1232.

[0048] It should be noted that the first wall plate 121 is provided with a guide groove 121a (as shown in Figure 7 The second end 20b of the supporting leg 20 is provided with a guide column 61 (as shown in Figure 9As shown, when the support foot 20 moves towards the direction of extending out of the opening 12a until the guide post 61 contacts the bottom end of the guide groove 121a, the support foot 20 rotates about the axis of the guide post 61 in a direction offset from the central axis MM' of the handle 10, so that the second end 20b of the support foot 20 abuts against the second abutting surface 12c of the second abutting protrusion 1233, thereby positioning the support foot 20 in the supported state. Conversely, when the support foot 20 rotates about the axis of the guide post 61 in a direction offset towards the central axis MM' of the handle 10, so that the second end 20b of the support foot 20 disengages from the second abutting surface 12c of the second abutting protrusion 1233, the support foot 20 can then move towards the direction of extending into the opening 12a until the first end 20a of the support foot 20 abuts against the first abutting surface 12b, thereby positioning the support foot 20 in the retracted state.

[0049] like Figures 10-11 As shown, the selfie stick 1 also includes a limiting structure 30, which is disposed on at least one of the side wall 11 and the support foot 20. The limiting structure 30 is used to restrict the movement of the support foot 20 relative to the end wall 12 in the direction of the protruding opening 12a when the support foot 20 is in the retracted state. By designing the limiting structure 30, when the support foot 20 is in the retracted state, the limiting structure 30 restricts the movement of the support foot 20 relative to the end wall 12 in the direction of the protruding opening 12a, so as to cooperate with the limiting effect of the first abutment surface 12b on the first end 20a of the support foot 20 to form a double limiting effect on the support foot 20, which can effectively enhance the stability of the support foot 20 when it is retracted in the receiving cavity.

[0050] Specifically, the specific form of the limiting structure 30 and the specific location of the limiting structure 30 may include, but are not limited to, one or more of the following embodiments.

[0051] In the first embodiment, the limiting structure 30 includes a limiting flange 31 connected to the side wall 11. When the support foot 20 is in the retracted state, the limiting flange 31 abuts against the support foot 20, so that the support foot 20 can remain stationary relative to the end wall 12 under the action of static friction between itself and the limiting flange 31. The limiting flange 31 can be a long strip or a dotted structure, and is not limited thereto. The limiting flange 31 can be integrally formed with the side wall 11 by injection molding or 3D printing, but is not limited to this method. By designing the limiting flange 31, when the support foot 20 is in the retracted state, the limiting flange 31 abuts against the support foot 20. The static friction generated between the limiting flange 31 and the support foot 20 can restrict the movement of the opposite end wall 12 of the support foot 20 towards the protruding opening 12a. In this way, together with the limiting effect of the first abutting surface 12b on the first end 20a of the support foot 20, a double limiting effect is formed on the support foot 20, which can effectively enhance the stability of the support foot 20 when it is retracted and stored in the receiving cavity.

[0052] In the second embodiment, the limiting structure 30 includes a limiting flange 31, which is connected to the support foot 20. When the support foot 20 is in the retracted state, the limiting flange 31 abuts against the side wall 11, so that the support foot 20 can remain stationary relative to the end wall 12 under the action of static friction between the limiting flange 31 and the side wall 11. The limiting flange 31 can be a long strip or a dotted structure, which is not limited here; the limiting flange 31 can be integrally formed with the support foot 20 by injection molding or 3D printing, but is not limited to this method. By designing the limiting flange 31, when the support foot 20 is in the retracted state, the limiting flange 31 abuts against the side wall 11. The static friction generated between the limiting flange 31 and the side wall 11 can restrict the support foot 20 from moving towards the end wall 12 of the opposite end wall 12 in the direction of the protruding opening 12a. In this way, together with the limiting effect of the first abutting surface 12b on the first end 20a of the support foot 20, a double limiting effect is formed on the support foot 20, which can effectively enhance the stability of the support foot 20 when it is retracted and stored in the receiving cavity.

[0053] Of course, in other embodiments, the limiting structure 30 may also include a limiting pin (not shown in the figure), the limiting pin is disposed on at least one of the side wall 11 and the support leg 20, and at least the other of the side wall 11 and the support leg 20 is provided with a limiting groove corresponding to the limiting pin. When the support leg 20 is in the retracted state, the limiting pin engages with the limiting groove so that the support leg 20 can remain stationary relative to the end wall 12 under the action of the clamping force between the limiting pin and the limiting groove.

[0054] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 12 and Figure 13 As shown, the selfie stick 1 also includes a connecting mechanism 40, which is used to mount the shooting device and is rotatably connected to the grip 10, so that the connecting mechanism 40 and the grip 10 can switch between an unfolded use state and a folded non-use state. There are multiple support feet 20, and at least one of the support feet 20 has a first end 20a for locking with the connecting mechanism 40 in the non-use state, thereby locking the connecting mechanism 40 to the grip 10.

[0055] The connecting mechanism 40 serves as the connecting structure for the selfie stick 1, used to mount and support the shooting device. The shooting device can be, but is not limited to, small electronic devices with shooting functions such as mobile phones, action cameras, and digital cameras. Since the connecting mechanism 40 is not the focus of this application, its specific structure will not be described in detail here.

[0056] The connecting mechanism 40 is rotationally connected with the handle 10, so that the opening angle between the connecting mechanism 40 and the handle 10 is adjustable. The rotational connection between the connecting mechanism 40 and the handle 10 is not limited herein, and the designer can make reasonable design according to actual needs; for example, the handle 10 further comprises a telescopic rod 13, which is accommodated in the above-mentioned accommodating cavity, and the connecting mechanism 40 is rotationally connected with the telescopic rod 13.

[0057] The end of the connecting mechanism 40 and the handle 10 close to the rotation center is the first end of each, and the end of the connecting mechanism 40 and the handle 10 away from the rotation center is the second end of each; and the first end and the second end are oppositely arranged.

[0058] The connecting mechanism 40 and the handle 10 can be switched between the unfolded use state and the overlapped non-use state. The connecting mechanism 40 and the handle 10 are rotated away from each other to unfold to be in the use state, at which time the second ends of the connecting mechanism 40 and the handle 10 are away from each other; the connecting mechanism 40 and the handle 10 are rotated towards each other to overlap to be in the non-use state, at which time the second ends of the connecting mechanism 40 and the handle 10 are close to each other. In this way, when the user needs to take pictures with the aid of the selfie stick 1, the connecting mechanism 40 and the handle 10 are rotated away from each other to unfold, and then the shooting device is installed on the connecting mechanism 40, so that the user can perform shooting operation; on the contrary, when the user does not need to take pictures with the aid of the selfie stick 1, the connecting mechanism 40 and the handle 10 are rotated towards each other to overlap, so that the user can store them.

[0059] The number of the supporting legs 20 is multiple (more than two), and in the embodiment of the present application, the number of the supporting legs 20 is three, so as to form a tripod structure, so that the entire selfie stick 1 can be stably supported on the surface to be contacted by the supporting legs 20.

[0060] In the design, the first end 20a of at least one of the plurality of supporting legs 20 is used to be locked with the connecting mechanism 40 in the non-use state, so as to position the connecting mechanism 40 on the handle 10, so that the relative position between the connecting mechanism 40 and the handle 10 can be fixed in the overlapped non-use state, and the connecting mechanism 40 and the handle 10 will not be opened at will, so as to facilitate the user to store them.

[0061] As shown in Figure 2 and Figure 12 The selfie stick 1 further comprises a locking assembly 50, which comprises a lock catch 51 and a lock opening 52; the lock catch 51 is arranged on one of the first end 20a of the supporting leg 20 and the connecting mechanism 40, and the lock opening 52 is arranged on the other one of the first end 20a of the supporting leg 20 and the connecting mechanism 40; when the connecting mechanism 40 and the handle 10 are in the above-mentioned non-use state, the lock catch 51 is connected with the lock opening 52 to lock the connecting mechanism 40 on the handle 10.

[0062] The locking assembly 50 is used to lock the connecting mechanism 40 to the handle 10 when the connecting mechanism 40 and the handle 10 are in the above-mentioned non-use state, so as to realize the relative fixation of the positions between the connecting mechanism 40 and the handle 10.

[0063] The locking assembly 50 comprises a lock buckle 51 and a lock hole 52. The lock buckle 51 is arranged on one of the first end 20a of the support leg 20 and the second end of the connecting mechanism 40, and the lock hole 52 is arranged on the other one of the first end 20a of the support leg 20 and the second end of the connecting mechanism 40. For example, the lock buckle 51 can be arranged on the first end 20a of the support leg 20, and the lock hole 52 can be arranged on the second end of the connecting mechanism 40; or the lock hole 52 can be arranged on the first end 20a of the support leg 20, and the lock buckle 51 can be arranged on the second end of the connecting mechanism 40.

[0064] The lock buckle 51 and the lock hole 52 are designed to be engaged when the connecting mechanism 40 and the handle 10 are in the above-mentioned non-use state, so as to realize the relative fixation of the positions between the connecting mechanism 40 and the handle 10, which is simple in structure and easy to realize.

[0065] It is worth mentioning that the plurality of support legs 20 can not only cooperate to form a stable support mechanism to contact the surface to be contacted, but at least one support leg 20 can also cooperate with the lock buckle 51 (or the lock hole 52) to connect with the lock hole 52 (or the lock buckle 51), so that the relative fixation of the positions between the connecting mechanism 40 and the handle 10 can be realized when the connecting mechanism 40 and the handle 10 are in the above-mentioned non-use state, and the connecting mechanism 40 and the handle 10 will not be opened at will, so as to facilitate the user to store.
