[0022] Referring to Figs. 1-5 A screwless buckle type mask plate box device, including box body 1, box cover 2 and clamping assembly 3, the box cover 2 is rotatably connected to the top of the box body 1, the clamping assembly 3 is two, the two clamping assemblies 3 are installed between the box body 1 and the box cover 2, the clamping assembly 3 includes mounting block 301 and mounting frame 302, the mounting block 301 is fixedly connected to the front surface of the box cover 2, the mounting frame 302 is fixedly connected to the front surface of the box body 1, the mounting frame 302 corresponds to the mounting block 301, the mounting frame 302 is fixedly connected with spring one 303 in the inside, the clamping block 304 is slidably connected in the inside of the mounting frame 302, the clamping block 304 is fixed with the spring one 303, the clamping groove 305 is arranged in the inside of the mounting frame 302, and the clamping block 304 is matched with the clamping groove 305.
[0023] The box cover 2 is installed on the top of the box body 1 through a specific rotary connection structure, so that the box cover 2 can be flexibly rotated around the connection point, realizing the opening and closing of the box body 1. The clamping assembly 3 has two, which are distributed and installed between the box body 1 and the box cover 2, and is the key component for realizing the quick fixing and opening of the box cover 2. The positions of the mounting frame 302 and the mounting block 301 in the clamping assembly 3 correspond to each other, so as to ensure that they can be accurately matched. When the box cover 2 is rotated to close, the mounting block 301 will be close to the mounting frame 302, and the mounting block 301 will extrude the inclined surface of the clamping block 304. The clamping block 304 is compressed by the spring one 303 and retracted into the mounting frame 302. When the box cover 2 is completely closed, the positions of the mounting frame 302 and the mounting block 301 are accurately corresponding. At this time, the spring one 303 restores the elastic force and can push the clamping block 304 into the clamping groove 305 on the inner wall of the mounting block 301, so as to realize the fixing of the box cover 2.
[0024] The inner wall of the mounting block 301 is slidably connected with a slide column 306. One end of the slide column 306 is located outside the mounting block 301, and the other end of the slide column 306 is located inside the clamping groove 305. The end of the slide column 306 located outside the mounting block 301 is fixedly connected with a push plate one 307. The outer surface of the slide column 306 located outside the mounting block 301 is sleeved with a spring two 309. The end of the slide column 306 located inside the clamping groove 305 is fixedly connected with a push plate two 308.
[0025] The slide column 306 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the mounting block 301. One end of the slide column 306 is located outside the mounting block 301, and the other end is located inside the clamping groove 305. By pressing the push plate one 307, the slide column 306 and the push plate two 308 can be moved, and the spring two 309 can be extruded, so that the push plate two 308 is close to the clamping block 304, and the clamping block 304 is pushed out of the clamping groove 305, so that the fixing of the box cover 2 can be released. At this time, the box cover 2 can be easily opened. The spring two 309 plays a resetting role, so that when the push plate one 307 is loosened, the slide column can be automatically reset.
[0026] The left and right inner side walls of the box body 1 are each provided with a fixing assembly 4, and the two fixing assemblies 4 are left-right symmetrical.
[0027] The two fixing assemblies 4 are distributed inside the box body 1 and can provide uniform and stable clamping force for the mask plate placed in the box body 1.
[0028] The fixing assembly 4 includes two telescopic rods 401, both of which are fixedly connected to the inner side wall of the box body 1. The ends of the two telescopic rods 401 away from the box body 1 are fixedly connected with a clamping block 402. The outer surfaces of the two telescopic rods 401 are sleeved with a spring three 403. The side of the clamping block 402 away from the two telescopic rods 401 is provided with a clamping groove 405.
[0029] The fixed assembly 4 mainly consists of two telescopic rods 401 and a clamping block 402. The outer surfaces of the two telescopic rods 401 are sleeved with spring three 403, which provides elastic clamping force. The side of the clamping block 402 away from the two telescopic rods 401 is provided with a clamping groove 405. The shape and size of the clamping groove 405 are designed to match the edge of the common mask plate, so as to better realize the clamping function.
[0030] The two sides of the clamping block 402 are fixedly connected with sliding blocks 404. The front and rear inner side walls of the box body 1 are provided with limiting sliding grooves 5. The two sliding blocks 404 are slidingly connected in the two limiting sliding grooves 5 respectively.
[0031] The sliding blocks 404 fixedly connected on the two sides of the clamping block 402 slide in the limiting sliding grooves 5 opened on the front and rear inner side walls of the box body 1. The limiting sliding grooves 5 limit the sliding blocks 404, so that the clamping block 402 keeps stable during movement and does not deviate or shake.
[0032] The upper surface of the box body 1 is provided with a sealing gasket 6. The bottom surface of the box cover 2 is provided with a sealing groove 7 which matches the sealing gasket 6.
[0033] The design of the sealing gasket 6 and the sealing groove 7 provides a relatively closed storage environment for the mask plate, which can effectively block the invasion of dust, moisture and other pollutants.
[0034] Working principle: when the device is used, the mask plate is placed in the box body 1. First, push the clamping block 402 to make it move along the axis of the limiting sliding groove 5 through the sliding blocks 404 on both sides, so as to compress the spring three 403 and the telescopic rod 401. After the mask plate is placed in place, release the clamping block 402. The elastic force of the spring three 403 will drive the clamping block 402 to approach the mask plate, and the mask plate will be clamped through the clamping groove 405 to stably clamp the mask plate. When the box cover 2 is closed, the box cover 2 is rotated around the rotating connection point with the box body 1. The two mounting blocks 301 on the front surface of the box cover 2 will approach the two mounting frames 302 on the front surface of the box body 1. The mounting blocks 301 will extrude the inclined surface of the clamping block 304 during the approaching process. After being extruded, the clamping block 304 will compress the spring one 303 and retract into the mounting frame 302. When the box cover 2 is completely closed, the positions of the mounting frame 302 and the mounting block 301 correspond. At this time, the elastic force of the spring one 303 restores, so that the clamping block 304 is clamped in the clamping groove 305 on the inner wall of the mounting block 301, thereby fixing the closed box cover 2. Through the design of the sealing gasket 6 and the sealing groove 7, the invasion of dust, moisture and other pollutants into the box body can be effectively blocked. When the box cover 2 needs to be opened subsequently, press the push plate one 307. The push plate one 307 drives the slide column 306 to move. The push plate two 308 at the other end of the slide column 306 will approach the clamping block 304 and push the clamping block 304 out of the clamping groove 305, thereby releasing the fixation of the box cover 2. At this time, the box cover 2 can be easily opened by rotating.
[0035] The above merely describes the preferred embodiments of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
