Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of decorative arts, and in particular relates to a wind chime tube with a snap-fit ​​structure. Background Technology

[0002] Wind chimes come in various forms, primarily producing melodious sounds through the swaying and collision of their individual tubes, providing aesthetic enjoyment. Existing wind chime structures typically involve creating holes in the tubes for attaching a rope, threading the rope through these holes, and then hanging the other end of the rope onto the base. Alternatively, a pin can be inserted into the rope hole in the tube, with one end of the rope tied to the pin and the other end fixed to the base. This completes the installation and fixation of the wind chime and its base. For example, Chinese utility model patent CN201620812807.X, entitled "A Solar-Powered Wind Chime," discloses a solar-powered wind chime, including a four-sided pyramidal mounting base, two solar panels disposed on the outer surface of the mounting base, a battery disposed within the mounting base, a photosensitive sensor disposed on the mounting base, a swingable lamp body suspended below the mounting base by wires, and hollow tubes located at the four corners of the mounting base that collide with the lamp body to produce sound. The lamp body includes a lamp holder disposed on the wires, an LED bulb mounted on the lamp holder, and a transparent lampshade disposed on the lamp holder and surrounding the LED bulb for waterproofing. The transparent lampshade is decorated with cracks to enhance light efficiency. Each hollow tube is provided with a first hanging rope for easy hanging below the mounting base, and each hollow tube has a through hole on the opposite upper surface for the first hanging rope to pass through.

[0003] However, all of the above-mentioned methods of hanging wind chimes require making rope holes in the wind chime tubes, resulting in incomplete surfaces of the wind chime tubes and affecting their aesthetics. In addition, this method also has problems with poor stability and weak connections. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a wind chime tube with a snap-fit ​​structure to solve the technical problems of incomplete and unsightly surface, poor stability, and weak connection of the wind chime tube.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: a wind chime tube with a buckle structure, comprising a hollow tube body, a buckle provided inside the tube body, a wire groove formed between the buckle and the inner wall of the tube body, the buckle comprising a suspension part and abutment parts located on both sides of the suspension part, the abutment parts having a plurality of upwardly bent abutment claws, the abutment claws contacting and fitting against the inner wall of the tube body to restrict the buckle inside the tube body and to stably engage the buckle inside the tube body.

[0006] Furthermore, each of the two abutment portions on both sides of the suspension portion has two abutment claws, the outer surface of which is in contact with the inner wall of the tube, and the two abutment claws are symmetrically arranged.

[0007] Furthermore, the suspension part is provided with a groove for hanging a hanging rope. The groove is used for limiting and positioning the hanging rope and can be adapted to hanging ropes or suspension wires of different specifications.

[0008] Furthermore, a crease is provided at the middle position of the suspension part to provide pre-bending force during assembly to enhance stability.

[0009] Furthermore, the buckle is made of metal.

[0010] Furthermore, the suspension part, the abutment part, and the abutment claw are integrally formed.

[0011] Furthermore, the tube body is an aluminum tube.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has the following advantages through the above technical solution: By setting a buckle in the hollow tube, the buckle has a hanging part and an abutting part. The abutting part is provided with several upwardly bent claws. When the buckle is set in the tube, the outer surface of the claws on the abutting part abuts against the inner wall of the tube to achieve relative fit and fixation. A wire groove is formed between the abutting part and the inner wall of the tube. During installation, one end of the hanging rope is passed through the wire groove on one side and out from the other side, and then tied to the buckle. Since the buckle is restricted in the tube, one end of the hanging rope can be firmly connected to the buckle. Then the other end is fixed to the wind chime base. According to the above method, the hanging rope effect is achieved by setting a buckle in the tube, without the need to open a rope hole on the surface of the tube for the hanging rope to pass through. This not only ensures the integrity of the tube surface and improves the aesthetics of the tube, but also makes the connection between the hanging rope and the tube more stable, solving the technical problems of the existing wind chime tube surface being incomplete, unsightly, and having poor stability and weak connection.

[0026] like Figure 1-6As shown: A wind chime tube with a snap-fit ​​structure includes a hollow tube body 1, a snap-fit ​​2 inside the tube body 1, and a wire groove 101 formed between the snap-fit ​​2 and the inner wall of the tube body 1. The snap-fit ​​2 includes a hanging part 201 and abutting parts 202 located on both sides of the hanging part 201. The abutting parts 202 have several upwardly bent claws 203. The claws 203 contact and fit with the inner wall of the tube body 1 to restrict the snap-fit ​​2 inside the tube body 1. In this embodiment, the tube body 1 is a hollow cylinder. When in use, multiple tube bodies 1 of different lengths can be hung on the wind chime base to form a wind chime instrument. The snap-fit ​​2 is equivalent to the pin that passes through the rope hole in the prior art, and is used for binding and hanging. When the snap-fit ​​2 is snapped in the tube body 1, a wire groove 101 is formed between adjacent claws 203. In this embodiment, there are two sets of corresponding wire grooves 101 for threading rope and fixing.

[0027] like Figure 3-6 As shown: Each of the abutment portions 202 on both sides of the suspension portion 201 has two abutment claws 203. The outer surface of the abutment claws 203 is in contact with the inner wall of the tube body 1. In this embodiment, the abutment claws 203 are in the shape of an inclined triangle. Their outer surface matches the inner wall of the tube body 1 to abut against the inner wall to increase the stability and friction of the connection. At the same time, the suspension portion is provided with graded slots or multi-size slots to accommodate different diameter hanging ropes, steel wires and other materials, thereby improving versatility.

[0028] In addition, the abutments can be equipped with barbs or serrations to enhance friction with the inner wall of the tube and improve connection stability. Combined with the upward-bending abutments, they achieve a secure locking mechanism with the inner wall of the tube, ensuring the wind chime remains firmly in place even when swaying in the wind or encountering impacts, significantly improving durability.

[0029] like Figure 3-4 As shown: The suspension part 201 is provided with a slot 204 for easy hanging of the hanging rope 3. In this embodiment, the slot 204 makes it easier to thread the rope. When the rope is hung or tied on the suspension part 201, the slot 204 can also be used to limit the position.

[0030] like Figure 4 As shown: A crease is provided in the middle of the suspension part 201. The crease makes it easier to install during the assembly process. The bent buckle 2 can better abut against the inner wall of the tube body 1. At the same time, the bent suspension part 201 can better restrict the hanging movement.

[0031] The buckle 2 is a metal part. In this embodiment, the buckle 2 is made of aluminum or cold-rolled steel.

[0032] like Figure 4 As shown: the suspension part 201, the abutment part 202 and the abutment claw 203 are integrally formed, and the integral forming design can increase the stability of the product.

[0033] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0034] A buckle 2 is installed inside the hollow tube 1. The buckle 2 has a hanging part 201 and an abutment part 202. The abutment part 202 is provided with several upwardly bent claws 203. When the buckle 2 is engaged inside the tube 1, the outer surface of the claws 203 on the abutment part 202 abuts against the inner wall of the tube 1 to achieve relative fit and fixation. A wire groove 101 is formed between the abutment part 202 and the inner wall of the tube 1. During installation, one end of the hanging rope 3 is passed through one side of the wire groove 101 and out from the other side, and then tied to the buckle 2. Since the buckle 2 is confined inside the tube 1, one end of the hanging rope 3 can be firmly connected to the buckle 2, and the other end can be fixed to the wind chime base. According to the above method, the hanging rope 3 is achieved by setting the buckle 2 inside the tube 1. There is no need to open a rope hole on the surface of the tube 1 for the hanging rope 3 to pass through. This not only ensures the integrity of the tube surface and improves the aesthetics of the tube, but also makes the connection between the hanging rope 3 and the tube more stable. This solves the technical problems of the existing wind chime tube having an incomplete and unsightly surface, poor stability, and weak connection.

[0035] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. All equivalent structural transformations made under the inventive concept of the present utility model using the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
