[0023] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 The installation structure of the external handle decorative strip of this utility model includes a handle 1, which is rotatably mounted on a mounting plate 16. A decorative shell 2 is provided on one side of the handle 1, and a sliding component is provided between the decorative shell 2 and the handle 1. A groove 6 is provided on the inner side of the decorative shell 2. A sliding plate 7 is provided on the handle 1, and a cavity is provided at the upper end of the handle 1. The sliding plate 7 is placed in the cavity. An insert 5 is provided on one side of the sliding plate 7 corresponding to the position of the groove 6. The end of the insert 5 away from the sliding plate 7 is chamfered. A driving component is provided on the other side of the sliding plate 7, and an elastic component is provided between the sliding plate 7 and the handle 1.
[0024] Combination Figure 2 , Figure 4 As shown, the sliding component includes a slider 3, which is set in a "T" shape. The handle 1 is provided with a groove 4 that is the same shape as the slider 3. The slider 3 and the groove 4 are slidably set. When installing the decorative shell 2, the slider 3 is placed into the groove 4, thereby restricting the movement direction and position of the decorative shell 2, so that the decorative shell 2 can only move in a preset direction.
[0025] In this embodiment, the elastic component includes a guide rod 9, which is mounted on the handle 1 and slidably disposed with the slide plate 7. There are two guide rods 9, which are symmetrically disposed at both ends of the slide plate 7. A spring 8 is sleeved on the guide rod 9. When the slide plate 7 moves, it compresses the spring 8. At the same time, the guide rod 9 restricts the compression direction of the spring 8, thereby preventing the spring 8 from bending and thus improving the service life of the spring 8.
[0026] The drive assembly includes a rack 10, one end of which is mounted on a slide plate 7. The rack 10 is slidably disposed with a handle 1. A gear 11 meshes with one side of the rack 10. The gear 11 is rotatably mounted on the handle 1 via a rotating shaft 12. A drive plate 14 is mounted on the rotating shaft 12.

The protruding plate 15 is inserted into the handle 1. The lower end of the decorative shell 2 is connected to the handle 1 through the protruding plate 15, thereby preventing the lower end of the decorative shell 2 from lifting up.
[0030] The implementation principle is as follows: During installation, first align the slider 3 with the groove 4, then place the slider 3 into the groove 4 and push the decorative shell 2 to slide on the handle 1. At the same time, the operator pulls the drive plate 14 to rotate, which drives the rotating shaft 12 to rotate. The rotating shaft 12 drives the torsion spring 13 to work and store force. While the rotating shaft 12 is rotating, it also drives the gear 11 to rotate. The gear 11 drives the rack 10 to move, which drives the slide plate 7 to move. The slide plate 7 drives the insert block 5 to move and compresses the spring 8 to store force. When the decorative shell 2 moves to the preset position, the torsion spring 13 drives the rotating shaft 12 to reset. At the same time, the spring 8 pushes the slide plate 7 to move, and the slide plate 7 pushes the insert block 5 into the groove 6, thereby restricting and fixing the position of the decorative shell 2. When the decorative shell 2 needs to be replaced, pull the drive plate 14 to rotate again, so that the insert block 5 separates from the groove 6 and releases the restriction. Then the decorative shell 2 can be removed directly.
