[0017] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0018] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3and Figure 4 The illustration shows a multi-functional electronic accessory that can be displayed in both directions, including a slide rail 1 and a flip structure 2 slidably mounted on the slide rail 1. The flip structure 2 includes flip blocks 201, and several flip blocks 201 are slidably mounted on the slide rail 1. A first magnet plate 202 is fixedly connected to the front end and top end of each flip block 201. A placement box 205 is provided at the front end of the flip block 201. Two clamping plates 206 are fixedly connected to the rear end of the placement box 205. The clamping plates 206 are rotatably connected to the side corners of the flip block 201 via a first pin 208. The top and front end of the placement box 205 are open. A second magnet plate 207 is fixedly connected to the rear end of the placement box 205. The magnetic poles of the first magnet plate 202 and the second magnet plate 207 are opposite. A protective cover structure 3 is installed on the placement box 205.
[0019] It is worth noting that the slide rail 1 can be fixedly installed on the front side of the shelf partition. The flip block 201 is slidably installed on the slide rail 1. Located on the bottom or lower shelf partition, the electronic price tag is placed inside the placement box 205. By manually flipping the placement box 205, the connecting clamp 206 of the placement box 205 rotates along the first pin 208, and the placement box 205 rotates from a vertical state to a horizontal state, so that the electronic price tag changes from a vertical use state to a horizontal use state. The rear-mounted second magnet plate 207 is attracted to the upper surface of the flip block 201. The first magnet plate 202 is fixed and used in a vertical state. The second magnet plate 207 is attached to the first magnet plate 202 located on the front face of the flip block 201 and fixed. Whether the placement box 205 is used vertically or horizontally, it can be firmly fixed. For the shelf partitions at the bottom or in the lower area of the shelf, it is used to display product information. The angle conversion operation is simple and convenient, which makes it easy for stockers to rotate the corresponding position. Customers can intuitively view the price and other relevant information of the products in the lower position without having to squat down to view them, thus ensuring the customer's shopping experience.
[0020] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 3 The slide rail 1 is provided with a T-shaped slide groove 203, and the rear end face of the flip block 201 is fixedly connected to a matching T-shaped slider 204. It is worth noting that by relying on the T-shaped slider 204 to slide the flip block 201, it can be slid to a suitable position for use.
[0021] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The slide rail 1 has several recesses 102 embedded in the T-shaped slide groove 203. The recesses 102 have elongated cavities 101 embedded in the slide groove 203. The elongated cavities 101 allow the mounting bolts to pass through normally, so that the slide rail 1 can be bolted to the front side wall of the shelf partition. The head of the bolt is tucked into the recesses 102 and does not protrude in the T-shaped slide groove 203, so as to avoid interfering with the horizontal sliding of the T-shaped slider 204.
[0022] See Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The protective cover structure 3 includes a snap box 301, which is fitted over the placement box 205. The bottom of the snap box 301 has an elongated notch 302. The two side walls of the bottom of the snap box 301 are rotatably connected to the side of the placement box 205 via a second pin 304. It is worth noting that the snap box 301 is made of transparent plastic material to display the information on the surface of the electronic price tag. When the snap box 301 is pulled outward, it rotates around the second pin 304. The elongated notch 302 limits the movement, allowing the snap box 301 and the placement box 205 to be opened at a certain angle for easy replacement of electronic price tags that need repair or whose circuits have been depleted. The closed design of the snap box 301 and the placement box 205 is used to store the electronic price tags, ensuring that they are protected and reducing the risk of damage caused by impacts from external objects.
[0023] See Figure 1 The U-shaped rubber pad 305 is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the placement box 205. The U-shaped rubber pad 305 is elastic. When the buckle box 305 is attached to the placement box 205, the buckle box 305 will squeeze the U-shaped rubber pad 305, generating elastic tension, which increases the closure firmness. When the buckle box 305 and the placement box 205 are tightly closed, they are securely set up, ensuring the safe storage of electronic price tags.
[0024] See Figure 3 and Figure 4 The top front end face of the buckle box 301 is fixedly connected with an integrally formed protrusion 303, which can easily remove the buckle box 301, thereby facilitating the opening of the buckle box 301 and improving the ease of operation.
[0025] Working principle: The slide rail 1 can be fixedly installed on the front side of the shelf partition. The flip block 201 is slidably installed on the slide rail 1. The electronic price tag is placed inside the placement box 205 for use on the shelf partition in the bottom or lower area. By manually flipping the placement box 205, the connecting clamp 206 of the placement box 205 rotates along the first pin 208, and the placement box 205 rotates from a vertical state to a horizontal state for use. The electronic price tag is then converted from a vertical to a horizontal use state. The rear-mounted second magnet plate 207 is attracted to the first magnet plate 202 on the upper surface of the flip block 201 and fixed. In the vertical state, the second magnet plate 207 is attracted to the first magnet plate 202 on the front face of the flip block 201 and fixed. Whether the placement box 205 is used vertically or horizontally, it can be firmly fixed for the shelf partition in the bottom or lower area of the shelf.
