Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of lighting technology, and more specifically, to a handle and a lighting fixture with a paddle lock. Background Technology
[0002] Existing stage lights are generally equipped with handles for easy transport. However, fixed handles take up a lot of space and make the stage light look less rounded. Folding handles, on the other hand, can usually only be rotated in the unfolded direction when unfolded, but not in the folded direction, which is not conducive to the versatility of handle usage. Utility Model Content
[0003] To overcome at least one of the defects of the prior art, this utility model provides a handle with a paddle lock, which uses a drive plate and a reversing component to drive the lock plate to move, thereby achieving rotational locking of the handle after it is unfolded.
[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is: a handle with a paddle lock, including a base plate, a handle pivotally connected to the base plate, and a locking plate slidably disposed parallel to the base plate. The locking plate has an unlocking position that allows the handle to rotate freely within a predetermined range and a locking position that restricts the handle to be fixed at a preset unfolding angle. It also includes a first elastic element that provides the locking plate with a tendency to move toward the locking position at all times, and a drive plate that drives the locking plate to move from the locking position to the unlocking position. The drive plate and the locking plate are driven by a reversing component.
[0005] As the handle unfolds from its folded state, the locking plate moves to the locked position under the action of the first elastic element and the drive plate, restricting the handle to a preset unfolding angle. This prevents further rotation and unfolding, allowing the user to apply force to the handle in either the unfolding or folding direction. When the drive plate overcomes the force of the first elastic element through a reversing assembly, pushing the locking plate to the unlocked position, the restriction on the handle is released, and the handle can freely rotate from the preset unfolding angle to the folded state. The drive plate and locking plate are connected via a reversing assembly, resulting in a small footprint.
[0006] Furthermore, a locking block is provided on the rotation axis of the handle. When the locking plate is in the unlocked position, the locking plate avoids the locking block, and the locking block can rotate freely within a predetermined range. When the locking plate is in the locked position, the locking plane of the locking block abuts against the locking plate, and the surface-to-surface contact between the locking plate and the locking plane restricts the rotation of the locking block. That is, when the handle moves to the preset unfolding angle, the locking plate moves synchronously to the locked position, and the locking block on the rotation axis of the handle abuts against the locking plate through the locking plane. The surface-to-surface contact between the locking plate and the locking plane restricts the rotation of the locking block, thus preventing the handle from being further rotated to open or folded. The structure of the locking block and the locking plane is simple, the design is ingenious, and it occupies little space.
[0007] Furthermore, the movement direction of the locking plate is perpendicular to the rotation axis of the handle, and the movement direction of the drive plate is parallel to the rotation axis of the handle. This conforms to the operating habits and aesthetics of general users.
[0008] Furthermore, the reversing assembly includes a ramp disposed on the drive plate and a first roller disposed on the lock plate that abuts against the ramp. When the drive plate moves, the ramp pushes against the first roller to change the position of the lock plate. When the lock plate is in the locked position, the first roller is located at the bottom of the ramp, and when the lock plate is in the unlocked position, the first roller is located at the top of the ramp.
[0009] Furthermore, when the lock plate is in the unlocked position, the drive plate is in the first position, and the system further includes a fixing component for fixing the drive plate to the first position. The fixing component effectively prevents the lock plate from being pulled from the unlocked position to the locked position solely under the action of the first elastic element.
[0010] Furthermore, the fixing component includes a first magnet disposed on the drive plate and a second magnet disposed on the substrate, wherein the first magnet and the second magnet have opposite poles facing each other. Using the first magnet and the second magnet, the drive plate can be temporarily fixed in the first position, and changing its position requires only slight force, making it more convenient to use.
[0011] Furthermore, the system also includes a guide plate for guiding the drive plate. The guide plate has a first guide post, and the drive plate has a first guide groove corresponding to the first guide post. The first guide post extends through the first guide groove, guiding the drive plate to move along the length of the first guide groove. The first guide groove cooperates with the first guide post to restrict the movement of the drive plate along the length of the first guide groove, preventing it from wobbling unnecessarily.
[0012] Furthermore, the guide plate is provided with a through hole, and the drive plate is provided with a lever extending through the through hole. The user only needs to move the drive plate by moving the lever, which is very convenient to use.
[0013] Furthermore, it also includes a second elastic element that always provides the handle with a rotational tendency toward the substrate. The second elastic element allows the handle to automatically rotate to a folded state after the external force or restriction is released, making it look more aesthetically pleasing and preventing the handle from wobbling unnecessarily.
[0014] Furthermore, the base plate is provided with a pivot plate pivotally connected to the rotation axis of the handle, and also includes an independent bracket pivotally connected to the rotation axis, the independent bracket defining the unfolding angle of the handle. The independent bracket and the pivot plate cooperate to fix the rotation axis and prevent it from wobbling, and the independent bracket can be designed with a blocking structure to limit the unfolding angle of the handle for easy handling.
[0015] Furthermore, a second guide post is provided on the base plate, and a second guide groove is provided on the locking plate. The second guide post passes through the second guide groove to guide the movement of the locking plate. The second guide groove cooperates with the second guide post to restrict the movement of the locking plate along the length direction of the second guide groove, preventing it from wobbling randomly.
[0016] This utility model also provides a lamp holder, including a lamp head for emitting light and an arm for supporting the rotation of the lamp head, and also includes a handle with a paddle lock as described above, wherein the handle with the paddle lock is disposed on the arm. Installing the handle with the paddle lock onto the arm of the lamp holder makes it very convenient to lift it forwards or backwards.
[0017] Furthermore, the arm has a support side plate pivotally connected to the lamp head, and a housing fastened to the support side plate, the support side plate forming the substrate. Directly utilizing the support side plate of the lamp head as the substrate reduces the number of components and assembly steps. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0025] The accompanying drawings are for illustrative purposes only and should not be construed as limiting this patent. To better illustrate this embodiment, some components in the drawings may be omitted, enlarged, or reduced, and do not represent the actual dimensions of the product. It is understandable to those skilled in the art that some well-known structures and their descriptions may be omitted in the drawings. The positional relationships described in the drawings are for illustrative purposes only and should not be construed as limiting this patent.
[0026] like Figures 1 to 3 This utility model provides a handle with a paddle lock, including a base plate 100, a handle 200 pivotally connected to the base plate 100, and a locking plate 300 slidably disposed parallel to the base plate 100. The locking plate 300 has an unlocking position that allows the handle 200 to rotate freely within a predetermined range and a locking position that restricts the handle 200 to be fixed at a preset unfolding angle. It also includes a first elastic member 140 that always provides the locking plate 300 with a tendency to move toward the locking position, and a drive plate 400 that drives the locking plate 300 to move from the locking position to the unlocking position. The drive plate 400 and the locking plate 300 are driven by a reversing component.
[0027] During the unfolding process of the handle 200 from the folded state, the locking plate 300 moves to the locked position under the action of the first elastic member 140 and the drive plate 400, restricting the handle 200 to a preset unfolding angle, preventing it from rotating further or folding. The user can then apply force to the handle 200 in either the unfolding or folding direction. When the drive plate 400 overcomes the force of the first elastic member 140 through a reversing assembly and pushes the locking plate 300 to the unlocked position, the restriction of the locking plate 300 on the handle 200 is released, and the handle 200 can freely rotate from the preset unfolding angle to the folded state. The drive plate 400 and the locking plate 300 are connected via a reversing assembly, occupying a small space. The first elastic member 140 is a tension spring, and both ends of the locking plate 300 are connected to the base plate 100 via tension springs.
[0028] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a locking block 220 is provided on the rotation shaft 210 of the handle 200. When the locking plate 300 is in the unlocked position, the locking plate 300 avoids the locking block 220, and the locking block 220 can rotate freely within a predetermined range. When the locking plate 300 is in the locked position, the locking plane 221 of the locking block 220 abuts against the locking plate 300, and the surface contact between the locking plate 300 and the locking plane 221 restricts the rotation of the locking block 220. That is, when the handle 200 moves to the preset unfolding angle, the locking plate 300 moves synchronously to the locked position, and the locking block 220 on the rotation shaft 210 of the handle 200 abuts against the locking plate 300 through the locking plane 221. The surface contact between the locking plate 300 and the locking plane 221 restricts the rotation of the locking block 220, thereby preventing the handle 200 from being rotated open or folded. The locking block 220 and the locking plane 221 have a simple structure, ingenious design, and occupy little space.
[0029] In this embodiment, when the drive plate 400 drives the locking plate 300 to the unlock position, if the handle 200 is rotated to the folded state, then moving the drive plate 400 alone will release the locking plate 300. Under the action of the first elastic member 140, the end of the locking plate 300 will abut against the locking block 220. Thus, when the handle 200 is rotated to the unfolded state, the locking plate 300 will move synchronously to the locked position, and the locking block 220 will abut against the locking plate 300 through the locking plane 221.
[0030] In this embodiment, when the lock plate 300 is in the unlocked position, the lock block 220 corresponds to the hollow hole or notch on the lock plate 300, thereby allowing the handle 200 to rotate freely within a predetermined range.
[0031] In a preferred embodiment of this invention, the moving direction of the locking plate 300 is perpendicular to the rotation axis 210 of the handle 200, and the moving direction of the drive plate 400 is parallel to the rotation axis 210 of the handle 200. This conforms to the operating habits and aesthetics of general users.
[0032] In this embodiment, the rotation axis 210 of the handle 200 is horizontal, the moving direction of the drive plate 400 is vertical, and the moving direction of the drive plate 400 is the same as that of the rotation axis 210 of the handle 200.
[0033] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the reversing assembly includes a ramp 410 disposed on the drive plate 400 and a first roller 310 disposed on the locking plate 300 and abutting against the ramp 410. When the drive plate 400 moves, the ramp 410 pushes against the first roller 310 to change the position of the locking plate 300. When the locking plate 300 is in the locked position, the first roller 310 is located at the bottom of the ramp 410, and when the locking plate 300 is in the unlocked position, the first roller 310 is located at the top of the ramp 410.
[0034] In this embodiment, the first roller 310 is a bearing structure and is mounted on the mounting post 330 on the locking plate 300.
[0035] In a preferred embodiment of this invention, when the locking plate 300 is in the unlocked position, the driving plate 400 is in a first position, and the invention further includes a fixing component for fixing the driving plate 400 to the first position. The fixing component effectively prevents the locking plate 300 from being pulled from the unlocked position to the locked position solely under the action of the first elastic member 140.
[0036] In a preferred embodiment of this invention, the fixing component includes a first magnet 420 disposed on the drive plate 400 and a second magnet 130 disposed on the substrate 100, wherein the first magnet 420 and the second magnet 130 have opposite poles facing each other. Using the first magnet 420 and the second magnet 130, the drive plate 400 can be temporarily fixed at the first position, and changing its position requires only slight force, making it more convenient to use.
[0037] In this embodiment, there are two first magnets 420, located at both ends of the drive plate 400, and two second magnets 130, thereby enhancing the overall magnetic attraction of the fixing assembly and making the drive plate 400 more firmly fixed in the first position.
[0038] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a guide plate 500 is further included to guide the drive plate 400. The guide plate 500 is provided with a first guide post, and the drive plate 400 is provided with a first guide groove 430 corresponding to the first guide post. The first guide post extends through the first guide groove 430, guiding the drive plate 400 to move along the length direction of the first guide groove 430. The first guide groove 430 cooperates with the first guide post to restrict the movement of the drive plate 400 along the length direction of the first guide groove 430, preventing it from wobbling randomly.
[0039] In this embodiment, a limiting roller 510 is connected to the first guide post. The limiting roller 510 expands through the end of the first guide groove 430 to limit the drive plate 400 and prevent it from falling off the first guide post.
[0040] In this embodiment, there are two first guide grooves 430, and two first guide posts are inserted into each first guide groove 430.
[0041] In a preferred embodiment of this invention, the guide plate 500 is provided with a through hole 520, and the drive plate 400 is provided with a lever 440 extending through the through hole 520. The user can move the drive plate 400 simply by moving the lever 440, making it very convenient to use. Of course, the lever 440 can also be configured as a rod-shaped structure, as long as it is easy for the user to operate.
[0042] In a preferred embodiment of this invention, a second elastic member 230 is further included, which always provides the handle 200 with a rotational tendency toward the substrate 100. The second elastic member 230 allows the handle 200 to automatically rotate to a folded state after the external force or restriction is released, making it look more aesthetically pleasing and preventing the handle 200 from wobbling.
[0043] In this embodiment, the second elastic element 230 is a torsion spring, one end of which is connected to the rotating shaft 210 and the other end is connected to the substrate 100.
[0044] In a preferred embodiment of this invention, the base plate 100 is provided with a pivot plate 110 pivotally connected to the rotation axis 210 of the handle 200, and also includes an independent bracket 120 pivotally connected to the rotation axis 210. The independent bracket 120 limits the unfolding angle of the handle 200. The independent bracket 120 and the pivot plate 110 cooperate to fix the rotation axis 210 and prevent it from shaking freely. Furthermore, the independent bracket 120 can be designed with a blocking structure to limit the unfolding angle of the handle 200 for easy handling.
[0045] In this embodiment, the independent bracket 120 limits the rotation of the handle 200 within a predetermined range by blocking the locking block 220.
[0046] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a second guide post is provided on the base plate 100, and a second guide groove 320 is provided on the locking plate 300. The second guide post passes through the second guide groove 320 to guide the movement of the locking plate 300. The second guide groove 320 cooperates with the second guide post to restrict the movement of the locking plate 300 along the length direction of the second guide groove 320, preventing it from wobbling randomly.
[0047] In this embodiment, a limiting roller 510 is connected to the second guide post. The limiting roller 510 expands through the end of the second guide groove 320 to limit the locking plate 300 and prevent it from falling off the second guide post.
[0048] In this embodiment, there are 3 second guide grooves 320, which are located on both sides and the bottom of the locking plate 300 respectively, and one first guide post is inserted in each first guide groove 430.
[0049] like Figure 4 This utility model also provides a lamp, including a lamp head 600 for emitting light and an arm 700 for supporting the rotation of the lamp head 600, and also includes any of the aforementioned handles with a paddle lock, the handle with the paddle lock being disposed on the arm 700. Installing the handle with the paddle lock onto the arm 700 of the lamp makes it very convenient to lift it forwards or backwards.
[0050] In this embodiment, the handle with the paddle lock is located in the middle of the arm 700.
[0051] In this embodiment, the arm 700 is pivotally connected to the chassis 800.

By directly using the support side plate 710 of the lamp head 600 as the substrate 100, the number of components can be reduced, and the assembly process can be reduced.
[0053] In this embodiment, the handle 200 extends from the housing 720, and the remaining components are located between the housing 720 and the support side plate 710. The housing 720 is provided with a receiving groove 721 corresponding to the storage state of the handle 200.
