Detailed Implementation
[0033] The embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. These embodiments are merely illustrative of the present invention and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0034] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The opening and closing structure of this utility model includes a blade assembly 1, a first fixed disk 2, a drive assembly 3 and a second fixed disk 4. The opening and closing structure has an opening 100 that passes through the first fixed disk 2 and the second fixed disk 4.
[0035] The opening and closing structure also includes two sets of blade assemblies. Each set of blade assemblies 1 includes multiple blades 11. The shape of the blades 11 is not limited; they can be triangular or approximately triangular, or other shapes. Each set of blade assemblies 1 contains at least two blades 11. In some embodiments, the number of blades 11 in each set can be three, four, five, or more. Figure 3 As shown, each blade assembly 1 contains 6 blades 11. Rotating parts 111 and first fixing parts 112 are spaced apart on each blade 11.
[0036] In this embodiment, in conjunction with reference to Figure 3 and Figure 4 Two sets of blade assemblies 1 are respectively distributed on two parallel and spaced-apart planes, and each blade 11 of the two sets of blade assemblies 1 is staggered along a circumferential direction. Figure 3 and Figure 4 In the middle, the unobstructed part of the blades 11 at the front is one set of blade assembly 1, and the remaining obstructed part of the blades 11 at the back is another set of blade assembly 1.
[0037] like Figure 1 As shown, two sets of blade assemblies 1 are sandwiched between the first fixed disk 2 and the second fixed disk 4. In one embodiment, the first fixed disk 2 and the second fixed disk 4 can be annular disks. Of course, the first fixed disk 2 and the second fixed disk 4 can also be disks of other shapes.
[0038] Both the first fixing disk 2 and the second fixing disk 4 are provided with a plurality of second fixing parts 24, the number of which is equal to the number of blades 11. The plurality of second fixing parts 24 on the first fixing disk 2 correspond one-to-one with the first fixing parts 112 on one of the adjacent sets of blade assemblies 1 and are rotatably engaged. Similarly, the plurality of second fixing parts 24 on the second fixing disk 4 correspond one-to-one with the first fixing parts 112 on another set of adjacent blade assemblies 1 and are rotatably engaged. In one embodiment, the second fixing part 24 can be a shaft hole or a rotating shaft, and the corresponding first fixing part 112 can be a rotating shaft or a shaft hole. In other embodiments, the second fixing part 24 and the first fixing part 112 can also be other rotatably engaged components.
[0039] The drive assembly 3 drives the rotating part 111 to reciprocate in a first position and a second position. The drive assembly 3 has a number of drive parts 31 equal to the number of blades 11. Each drive part 31 drives and connects to a rotating part 111, driving each blade 11 to rotate around a first fixed part 112 to open or close the opening 100. The reciprocating motion of the rotating part 111 in the first and second positions causes the corresponding blade 11 to rotate around the first fixed part 112. In this embodiment, the drive part 31 can be a shaft hole or a rotating shaft, and the corresponding rotating part 111 can be a rotating shaft or a shaft hole. It is understood that the drive assembly 3 includes at least a power device such as a motor, enabling the drive part 31 to drive the rotating part 111. In other embodiments, the drive part 31 and the rotating part 111 can also be other driveable and connected components, and their operation causes the blade 11 to rotate around the first fixed part 112. The rotation of the blade 11 causes the opening / closing structure to open or close the opening 100.
[0040] When the rotating part 111 moves from the second position to the first position, the blade 11 rotates and opens the opening 100, and the opening and closing structure is in the open state. During the opening process, the blade 11 rotates from the inside to the outside to open. The opening 100 can be a circular opening, a roughly circular opening, or an opening of other shapes, which is not limited here. When the rotating part 111 moves from the first position to the second position, the blade 11 rotates and closes the opening 100, and the opening and closing structure is in the closed state.
[0041] The opening and closing structure of this embodiment has an opening 100 that penetrates the first fixed disk 2 and the second fixed disk 4. The blade assembly 1 includes two sets, which are respectively distributed on two parallel and spaced planes. Each blade 11 of the two sets of blade assemblies 1 is staggered along a circumferential direction. The two sets of blade assemblies 1 are sandwiched between the first fixed disk 2 and the second fixed disk 4. The driving part 31 on the driving assembly 3 drives the rotating part 111 on the blade 11, so that the blade 11 rotates around the first fixed part 112, thereby opening or closing the opening 100. The opening and closing structure switches between the open and closed states. In the opening and closing process of this embodiment, since two sets of blade assemblies 1 are provided, and the two sets of blade assemblies are respectively distributed on two parallel and spaced planes, that is, the two sets of blade assemblies are staggered with each other, it is not easy for the blades 11 to collide or interfere during the movement, so that the opening and closing can be more thorough and the opening and closing operation is smooth.
[0042] In one embodiment, the opening 100 is a circular opening 100, or a near-circular opening 100, such as... Figure 3 As shown, the blade 11 includes a first side 113 and a second side 114 that are connected adjacent to each other. When the opening 100 is open, the first side 113 of the blade 11 coincides with a partial edge of the circle, or the first side 113 of the blade 11 is located on the outside of the circle to form the aforementioned circular opening 100.
[0043] In the closed state, the first side 113 of blade 11 matches the shape of the second side 114 of adjacent blade 11, allowing a seamless connection between blade 11 and adjacent blade 11, thereby closing the opening 100. For example, the first side 113 of blade 11 and the second side 114 of adjacent blade 11 may abut against each other. In one embodiment, the first side 113 includes a concave curve, and the second side 114 includes an outward convex curve. The concave curve of the first side 113 matches the shape of the outward convex curve of the second side 114, thereby closing the opening 100.
[0044] Furthermore, in each set of blade assemblies 1, the distance between the two first fixing parts 112 of adjacent blades 11 is greater than the length of the first side 113. For blades 11 in the same set of blade assemblies 1, the distance between the two first fixing parts 112 of adjacent blades 11 is greater than the length of the first side 113, which ensures that adjacent blades 11 in the same set of blade assemblies 1 will not interfere with each other during opening and closing.
[0045] Furthermore, when the opening 100 is in the closed state, the projections of the first side 113 and the second side 114 of each blade 11 along the plane perpendicular to any set of blade assemblies 1 are respectively located on two adjacent blades 11, so that the blade 11 partially overlaps with the adjacent blade 11. Thus, for the blades 11 in the two sets of blade assemblies 1, the partial overlap between the blades 11 and the adjacent blades 11 ensures that the adjacent blades 11 in the two sets of blade assemblies 1 will not interfere with each other during the opening and closing process.
[0046] Furthermore, the blade 11 also includes a third side 115, which connects the first side 113 and the second side 114. The lengths of the first side 113 and the second side 114 are both greater than the length of the third side 115. Thus, the blade 11 is triangular or nearly triangular in shape. The longer the lengths of the first side 113 and the second side 114, the shorter the length of the third side 115. When the opening and closing structure is in the open state, because the length of the third side 115 is shorter, all the blades 11 can be stored in a smaller space, making the entire opening and closing structure smaller and suitable for use in smaller spaces.
[0047] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 As shown, the drive assembly 3 includes a rotating disk 32, with an opening 100 penetrating through it. The rotating disk 32 is located on the side of the first fixed disk 2 away from the blade assembly 1. The rotating disk 32 is provided with a drive part 31, which is a drive groove. The drive part 31 rotates with the rotating disk 32. The rotating part 111 is located on the side of the blade 11 close to the rotating disk 32, and the rotating part 111 is a rotating shaft.
[0048] The first fixed disk 2 is provided with a first limiting groove 22. The number of first limiting grooves 22 can be equal to or different from the number of blades 11. The rotating part 111 passes through the first limiting groove 22 and the driving groove. The first limiting groove 22 is an arc-shaped trajectory groove with the first fixed part 112 on the blade 11 where each rotating part 111 is located as the center. The rotating disk 32 rotates back and forth, and drives the rotating part 111 to move back and forth in the first limiting groove 22 through the driving groove. The first limiting groove 22 restricts the movement trajectory of the rotating part 111 to be arc-shaped. The movement trajectory of the rotating part 111 is arc-shaped, so that the rotation trajectory of the blade is also arc-shaped.
[0049] Furthermore, the drive groove is a strip-shaped groove formed on the surface of the rotating disk 32. The extension direction of the strip-shaped groove passes through the rotation center of the rotating disk 32. When the rotating disk 32 rotates, it applies pressure to the rotating shaft through the drive groove, causing the rotating shaft to move. In some embodiments, at opposite ends of the drive groove, when the drive groove drives the rotating shaft to move from one end of the drive groove to the other end, the opening and closing structure switches between opening the opening 100 or closing the opening 100.
[0050] Furthermore, the drive assembly 3 also includes a drive gear 33 and a motor assembly 34. The rotating disk 32 is provided with teeth 321, which mesh with the drive gear 33. The rotating shaft of the motor assembly 34 is connected to the drive gear 33. When the motor assembly 34 is working, it drives the drive gear 33 through the rotating shaft. The drive gear 33 drives the rotating disk 32 to rotate through the teeth 321 of the rotating disk 32. The drive part 31 on the rotating disk 32 rotates along with the rotating disk 32, thereby driving the blades 11 in the two sets of blade assemblies 1 simultaneously through the rotating disk 32, causing the blades 11 to rotate.
[0051] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 As shown, the rotating disk 32 is also provided with a second limiting groove 322. The second limiting groove 322 is an arc-shaped groove with the rotation center of the rotating disk 32 as its center. There can be one or more second limiting grooves 322. The second limiting groove 322 is used to limit the rotation distance of the rotating disk 32. The first fixed disk 2 is provided with limiting posts 23. The number of limiting posts 23 is equal to the number of second limiting grooves 322. One limiting post 23 corresponds to one second limiting groove 322. The limiting post 23 passes through the second limiting groove 322. When the opening 100 of the opening and closing structure is open, the limiting post 23 is located at one end of the second limiting groove 322. When the opening 100 of the opening and closing structure is closed, the limiting post 23 is located at the other end of the second limiting groove 322.
[0052] Furthermore, each blade assembly 1 contains four to eight blades 11. When the number of blades 11 in each blade assembly 1 is set to four to eight, the number of blades 11 is relatively large, allowing all blades 11 to be stored in a small space when the opening and closing structure is open. For example, as shown... Figure 3 As shown, the blade 11 is an approximate triangle shape formed by three sides. The first side 113 includes a concave curve, the second side 114 includes a convex curve, and the third side 115 connects the first side 113 and the second side 114. The more blades 11 there are, the longer the first side 113 and the second side 114 become, and the shorter the third side 15 becomes. The space for storing the blades 11 is positively correlated with the length of the third side 115; the shorter the third side 115, the smaller the storage space. In this embodiment, each of the two sets of blade assemblies 1 contains four to eight blades 11. This not only reduces the likelihood of collisions or interference between the blades 11, but also allows for the storage of the blades 11 in a smaller space when the opening and closing structure is open. This makes the entire opening and closing structure smaller and suitable for use in small spaces in conjunction with other structures.
