Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fixing device technology, specifically to a locking buckle and a through-type vehicle light having the same. Background Technology

[0002] Automobiles have numerous parts, and the fit between these parts is crucial to the stability of the vehicle's structure. Currently, my country's automotive industry is developing rapidly, with an increasing demand for innovative vehicle designs, making continuous headlight designs more and more common.

[0003] However, due to the excessive length of a continuous headlight, and the need to maintain its curvature during installation, the mounting hardware requires multiple locking points to ensure stability. Currently, screws are commonly used for fixing; however, the excessive length of the continuous headlight means the screws exert significant tightening force, causing considerable deformation and compromising the curvature. Furthermore, this can create internal stress within the headlight, leading to breakage and ultimately affecting its lifespan. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of this, the present invention provides a locking buckle and a through-type vehicle light having the same, thereby solving or at least alleviating one or more of the above-mentioned problems and other problems existing in the prior art.

[0005] To achieve the aforementioned objective, the first aspect of this utility model provides a locking buckle, which includes a mounting portion and a connecting portion connected to the mounting portion. An elastic support is provided between the mounting portion and the connecting portion, and the connecting portion is provided with a locking element.

[0006] The connecting portion can pass through at least two of the mounting members, and the elastic support can abut against one of the outermost mounting members. The elastic support is capable of elastic deformation in the axial direction, and the engaging member can engage with the other outermost mounting member.

[0007] Optionally, in the aforementioned locking buckle, the elastic support is a hollow truncated cone, the narrow end of which is located at the connection between the mounting part and the connecting part, and extends outward from the connection and toward the connecting part.

[0008] In the aforementioned locking buckle, optionally, the elastic support is a support plate, which is evenly arranged on the same plane connecting the mounting part and the connecting part, and the support plate extends outward from the mounting part and toward the connecting part.

[0009] In the aforementioned locking buckle, optionally, the engaging member protrudes radially outward from the connecting portion.

[0010] In the aforementioned locking buckle, optionally, the end of the engaging member has a protrusion protruding toward the mounting portion, the protrusion being used to engage with the corresponding mounting member.

[0011] Optionally, in the aforementioned locking buckle, the end of the mounting portion away from the connecting portion is provided with a first groove, the shape of which can match the turning tool.

[0012] In the aforementioned locking buckle, optionally, the outer periphery of the mounting part is a polygon, the polygon being used to match a wrench tool.

[0013] Optionally, in the aforementioned locking buckle, the mounting part has a protrusion protruding outward near the elastic support. By grasping the protrusion and turning the mounting part, the connecting part can be rotated.

[0014] To achieve the aforementioned objective, a second aspect of this utility model provides a through-type vehicle light, which includes a lamp fixture and a lamp holder. The lamp fixture is installed in the lamp holder using a locking buckle as described in any of the first aspects above. The lamp fixture has a first through hole that matches the shape of the locking buckle. The first through hole is round in the middle and square at both ends. The lamp holder has a second through hole with the same shape and size as the first through hole. The circular part of the second through hole is also provided with a locking groove, which is used to engage the locking member of the locking buckle.

[0015] In the aforementioned through-type vehicle light, optionally, both the first through hole and the second through hole are circular in the middle and square at both ends, and the second through hole has the engagement groove located at the point where the circle is far from the mounting part.

[0016] The locking buckle of this utility model includes a mounting part and a connecting part connected to the mounting part. An elastic support is provided between the mounting part and the connecting part, and the connecting part is provided with a locking element. Through the cooperation of the elastic support and the locking element, the first mounting member and the second mounting member are pressed and locked together, thereby locking and fixing them axially, radially, and circumferentially. The elasticity of the elastic support 3 allows the first and second mounting members to have an axial adaptive adjustment margin, preventing them from being locked too tightly, which could lead to excessive internal stress and breakage, thus extending the service life of the first and second mounting members.

[0017] This utility model also provides a through-type vehicle light, which has all the features of the aforementioned locking buckle, and therefore also has its corresponding advantages. Attached Figure Description

[0029] Referring to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, the structure, composition, features and advantages of the locking buckle of this utility model and the through-type vehicle light having it will be described by way of example below. However, all descriptions should not be used to limit this utility model in any way.

Therefore, these further embodiments according to the present invention should also be considered within the scope of the description herein.

[0031] It should also be noted that the terms "inner" and "outer," etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship of the locking buckle shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this disclosure and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this disclosure.

[0032] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined with "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of that feature.

[0033] In the description of this disclosure, "multiple" means at least two, such as two, three or more, unless otherwise expressly and specifically limited.

[0034] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the locking buckle 1 of this utility model is provided with an installation part 2 and a connecting part 4 connected to the installation part 2. An elastic support 3 is provided between the installation part 2 and the connecting part 4, and the connecting part 4 is provided with a locking member 5.

[0035] The locking buckle 1 of this utility model is used to lock multiple mounting parts, for example in Figure 3 In this embodiment, the locking buckle 1 locks the first mounting member 11 and the second mounting member 12, for a total of two mounting members. As shown in the figure, the first mounting member 11 has a first through hole 13, the second mounting member 12 has a second through hole 14, and a locking groove 15 is also provided at the second through hole 14.

[0036] When the locking buckle 1 locks the two mounting pieces, the first through hole 13 and the second through hole 14 are aligned, the connecting part 4 passes through the first through hole 13 and the second through hole 14, and the elastic support 3 abuts against the surface of the first mounting piece 11. The engaging member 5 engages in the engaging groove 15 of the second mounting piece 12. It can be understood that in other embodiments of this utility model, the second mounting piece 12 may not have an engaging groove 15.

[0037] As shown in the figure, the first mounting member 11 and the second mounting member 12 are pressed tightly against each other between the elastic support 3 and the engaging member 5. Specifically, the elastic support 3 applies axial pressure to the first mounting member 11 towards the second mounting member 12, while the engaging member 5 applies axial pressure to the second mounting member 12 towards the first mounting member 11, so that the first mounting member 11 and the second mounting member 12 are pressed tightly against each other.

[0038] Due to the elasticity of the elastic support 3, the first mounting member 11 and the second mounting member 12 can have an axial adaptive adjustment margin. That is, the curvature of the first mounting member 11 and the second mounting member 12 at the locking buckle 1 can be adaptively adjusted so that the curvatures of the first mounting member 11 and the second mounting member 12 fit together. Furthermore, the elasticity of the elastic support 3 can flexibly cope with vibration, preventing the first mounting member 11 and the second mounting member 12 from breaking due to excessive internal stress, thereby extending the service life of the first mounting member 11 and the second mounting member 12.

[0039] Since the elastic support 3 abuts against the surface of the first mounting member 11, the elastic support 3 and the surface of the first mounting member 11 have circumferential friction, which has the function of circumferential anti-retraction, preventing the locking buckle 1 from rotating after locking.

[0040] The engaging member 5 engages within the engaging groove 15, restricting the radial movement and circumferential rotation of the first mounting member 11 and the second mounting member 12, thus providing radial and circumferential anti-reverse function. Therefore, through the mutual cooperation of the elastic support 3 and the engaging member 5, the locking buckle 1 can lock and fix the first mounting member 11 and the second mounting member 12 axially, radially, and circumferentially.

[0041] In an optional embodiment, the locking buckle 1 of this utility model can also lock multiple mounting parts. The locking method is the same as locking two mounting parts, that is, the connecting part 4 of the locking buckle 1 passes through multiple mounting parts, and the elastic support 3 abuts against one of the outermost mounting parts, and the engaging part 5 engages with another outermost mounting part.

[0042] Furthermore, combined Figure 1 and Figure 2 It can be seen that the elastic support 3 of the locking buckle 1 can be a hollow truncated cone. Specifically, the truncated cone has a narrow end 31 with a smaller diameter and a wide end 32 with a larger diameter. The narrow end 31 of the truncated cone is located at the connection between the mounting part 2 and the connecting part 4, and extends outward from the connection and toward the connecting part 4 to its wide end 32.

[0043] When locking buckle 1 locks two mounting parts, as follows: Figure 3As shown, the wide end 32 of the truncated conical shape of the elastic support 3 abuts against the surface of the first mounting member 11, that is, the circumferential edge of the wide end 32 of the elastic support 3 abuts against the surface of the first mounting member 11, so as to provide inclined support to the surface of the first mounting member 11. Thus, the axial elasticity of the elastic support 3 can be ensured by the curvature of the truncated conical inclined surface, and the first mounting member 11 is pressed against the second mounting member 12 by the abutment force.

[0044] Optionally, such as Figure 4 As shown, in one embodiment, the elastic support 3 can be a plurality of support plates, which can be located on the conical surface of a truncated cone and evenly arranged on the same connecting plane between the mounting portion 2 and the connecting portion 4. The support plates extend outward from the connecting plane and toward the connecting portion 4. Figure 1 Similar to the embodiment, the support plate is inclined and supported on the surface of the first mounting member 11, so that the surface of the support plate can undergo elastic deformation in the axial direction under pressure, that is, axial bending. The degree of bending ensures the axial elasticity of the elastic support 3, and the first mounting member 11 is pressed against the second mounting member 12 by the abutment force. Optionally, the elastic support 3 can also be a support rod, evenly distributed on the same connecting plane between the mounting part 2 and the connecting part 4.

[0045] Figure 1 and Figure 4 In the embodiments, the elastic supports 3 are all inclined to support the mounting member. In other embodiments, other elastic components such as rubber, elastic plastic, etc. can also be used to provide axial support on the surface of the first mounting member 11.

[0046] from Figure 1 It can also be seen that the engaging part 5 of the locking buckle 1 protrudes radially outward from the connecting part 4, and the engaging part 5 is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the connecting part 4, combining... Figure 3 It can be seen that the end of the engaging component 5 is engaged in the engaging groove 15 of the second mounting component 12.

[0047] Furthermore, the end of the engaging member 5 may be provided with a protrusion 51 (such as...). Figure 5 As shown), protrusion 51 protrudes towards mounting portion 2. When locked, as... Figure 6 As shown, the protrusion 51 is engaged in the engagement groove 15 of the second mounting member 12.

[0048] Optionally, the shape of the protrusion 51 of the engaging member 5 is not limited, and can be as follows: Figure 5 In one embodiment, the spherical shape has a smooth, rounded surface, which prevents collision and wear during engagement and facilitates matching and installation. In other embodiments, the protrusion 51 can also be a cuboid, cylinder, or other similar shape, as long as it can fit into the engaging groove 15 of the second mounting member 12.

[0049] To facilitate the locking and installation of the locking buckle 1, the outer periphery of the mounting portion 2 of the locking buckle 1 can be set as a polygon (e.g., ...). Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, a wrench can be used to rotate the mounting part 2 by turning it around the polygonal outer periphery of the mounting part 2, thereby causing the connecting part 4 to rotate. The wrench can be, for example, a screwdriver or a wrench.

[0050] Furthermore, the mounting part 2 may also be provided with a first groove 21 (e.g. Figure 5 As shown, the shape of the first groove 21 matches a screwdriver, which can be a screwdriver, a fancy screwdriver, an external hexagon, etc. Correspondingly, the shape of the first groove 21 can be set to a slotted, Phillips, fancy, hexagonal, etc., to match different shapes of screwdrivers. In an optional embodiment, the shape of the first groove 21 can also be formed by overlapping various shapes, such as... Figure 7 As shown, the first groove 21 has a straight groove, and a cross groove is formed inside the straight groove that deepens in the direction of the connecting portion 4. In other embodiments, the various shapes of the first groove 21 can be arbitrarily overlapped to accommodate various turning tools.

[0051] from Figure 6 As can be seen, the first groove 21 extends deep into the mounting part 2. During installation, the screwing tool extends deep into the first groove 21 of the mounting part 2, increasing the contact area between the screwing tool and the first groove 21, making it easier for the screwing tool to screw the mounting part 2, thereby driving the connecting part 4 to rotate.

[0052] Optionally, a second groove 41 is provided in the connecting part 4 corresponding to the first groove 21. The second groove 41 is used to uniformly thicken the wall so that the thickness of the side wall of the first groove 21 of the mounting part 2 at both ends of the locking buckle 1 is the same as the thickness of the side wall of the second groove 41 of the connecting part 4, so as to maintain the balance of both ends of the locking buckle 1, prevent the locking buckle 1 from cracking due to internal stress deformation, and reduce production materials and reduce production costs.

[0053] In one embodiment, the locking buckle 1 can be a plastic part, which is corrosion resistant, and the second groove 41 of its connecting part 4 can play the role of uniform wall thickness, overcoming defects such as shrinkage and deformation of the plastic part.

[0054] Furthermore, from Figure 5 It can also be seen that the mounting part 2 has a protruding boss 22 near the elastic support 3. The boss 22 is a strip structure that protrudes outward, which can increase the torque of screwing and make it convenient for operators to manually screw and apply force. By holding the boss 22 and screwing the mounting part 2, the connecting part 4 can be driven to rotate together.

[0055] exist Figure 5In this embodiment, two protrusions 22 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the mounting part 2. The position of the protrusions 22 is perpendicular to the position of the engaging parts 5 on both sides of the connecting part 4 in the circumferential direction, so as to balance the locking buckle 1. And the position of the engaging parts 5 can be used to determine whether the position of the engaging parts 5 has reached the locking position.

[0056] In other embodiments, the positions of the boss 22 and the engaging member 5 are not limited and can be set according to the actual situation.

[0057] With the polygonal outer contour of the mounting part 2, the first groove 21 and the boss 22, the locking buckle 1 of this utility model has multiple installation methods such as screwing tool, wrench tool and manual installation, which facilitates the locking installation of the locking buckle 1.

[0058] The locking buckle 1 of this utility model is easy to install, such as... Figure 8 , Figure 9 As shown, the locking buckle 1 secures the first mounting member 11 and the second mounting member 12 together. As can be seen from the figure, the first mounting member 11 has a first through hole 13, which is circular in the middle and square at both ends to accommodate the shape of the connecting part 4 of the locking buckle 1 and the engaging parts 5 on both sides. Specifically, the circular hole in the middle accommodates the connecting part 4, and the square holes at both ends accommodate the engaging parts 5.

[0059] The second mounting component 12 has a second through hole 14, which has the same shape and size as the first through hole 13. The outer side of the circular hole of the second through hole 14 is also provided with a locking groove 15, which is used to engage the locking component 5 of the locking buckle 1.

[0060] During installation, firstly, the first through hole 13 of the first mounting member 11 is aligned with the second through hole 14 of the second mounting member 12. For example... Figure 8 As indicated by the arrow, the connecting part 4 of the locking buckle 1 is aligned with the engaging parts 5 on both sides and passes through the first through hole 13 and the second through hole 14. The elastic support 3 abuts against the surface of the edge of the first through hole 13 of the first mounting member 11, and the engaging part 5 passes through the second through hole 14 and extends beyond the outer surface of the second mounting member 11.

[0061] Then, as Figure 9 As shown in the figure, the mounting part 2 of the screw-locking buckle 1 is rotated at the second through hole 14 of the second mounting part 12. The rotating mounting part 2 drives the connecting part 4 so that the protrusion 51 of the engaging part 5 engages with the engaging groove 15 (e.g., ...). Figure 6 (as shown), thereby completing the installation and locking of the first mounting component 11 and the second mounting component 12.

[0062] The locking buckle 1 of this utility model is also easy to disassemble. During disassembly, first press the locking buckle 1 towards the connecting part 4. The elastic support 3 undergoes elastic deformation, causing the locking buckle 1 to move towards the connecting part 4. The engaging member 5 at the connecting part 4 disengages from the engaging groove 15 of the second mounting member 12. Then, screw the mounting part 2 to rotate the connecting part 4 and the engaging member 5 to a position that conforms to the shape of the second through hole 14, thereby removing the locking buckle 1 from the second through hole 14 and the first through hole 13, completing the disassembly work.

[0063] Therefore, it can be seen that the locking buckle 1 in this embodiment does not require threaded connection. It only needs to be screwed to a certain angle to easily install and lock the first mounting part 11 and the second mounting part 12, and it is also easy to disassemble.

[0064] The locking buckle 1 of this utility model, through the cooperation of the elastic support 3 and the engaging member 5, locks and fixes the first mounting member 11 and the second mounting member 12 in the axial, radial, and circumferential directions. Due to the elasticity of the elastic support 3, the first mounting member 11 and the second mounting member 12 have an adaptive adjustment margin in the axial direction, which can flexibly cope with vibration and prevent the locking of the first mounting member 11 and the second mounting member 12 from being too tight, which would cause excessive internal stress and breakage, thereby extending the service life of the first mounting member 11 and the second mounting member 12.

[0065] Furthermore, the polygonal outer contour of the mounting part 2 of the locking buckle 1, the first groove 21, and the boss 22 provide multiple installation methods, including screwing tools, wrench tools, and manual installation, making it more convenient to install the locking buckle 1.

[0066] This utility model also provides a through-type vehicle light, which includes a lamp and a lamp holder. The lamp is installed on the lamp holder using the aforementioned locking buckle 1. The lamp holder can be located at the front or rear of the vehicle as needed.

[0067] The aforementioned first mounting component 11 can be a lamp fixture, and the aforementioned second mounting component 12 can be a lamp holder. The installation and locking process of the lamp fixture, as well as the locking principle, are as described above regarding the locking installation of the first mounting component 11 and the second mounting component 12, and will not be repeated here.

[0068] When in use, the locking and fixing of the through-type vehicle light can be entirely done using locking buckles 1, or, depending on the actual situation, locking buckles 1 can be used in combination with other locking parts such as screws, bolts, rivets, etc., to make the curvature of the through-type vehicle light fixture fit the lamp holder better.

[0069] The technical scope of this utility model is not limited to the contents of the above description. Those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations to the above embodiments without departing from the technical concept of this utility model, and all such modifications and variations should fall within the scope of this utility model.
