Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of rope buckle technology, specifically relating to a shoe buckle that can be threaded with a soft rope. Background Technology
[0002] Shoelaces are used to adjust the tightness of the shoe upper and ensure foot comfort. Traditionally, shoelaces have been tied by crossing and knotting them. However, this method is tedious and shoelaces often become too tight, too loose, or come undone during walking and exercise, causing a lot of inconvenience.
[0003] Therefore, many shoes on the market now use shoelace buckles that allow for adjustable lace tension by rotating them. However, the shoelaces commonly used in traditional shoelace buckles are made of nylon. During wear and movement, the shoelaces will inevitably bend, leading to stress buildup. This stress can eventually cause the material to break at its load-bearing limit, resulting in a reduced lifespan. Utility Model Content

[0034] Please refer to Figure 1 as well as Figure 2 , Figure 1 This is a disassembled structural diagram of each component in an embodiment of the present utility model. Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the assembly structure of an embodiment of the present utility model. This embodiment provides a shoe buckle that can be threaded with a soft rope, which includes a rotating cover 1, a rotating wheel 2, a rope wheel 3, a connecting sleeve 4, and a mounting base 4-1. The top of the inner side of the rotating cover 1 is provided with three positioning blocks 1-1, and the inner side of the bottom of the rotating cover 1 is provided with three second locking blocks 1-2.
[0035] Please refer to Figure 6 , Figure 6 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the rotating wheel 2 in this embodiment. The top of the rotating wheel 2 in this embodiment has three positioning holes 5-1 corresponding to the positioning block 1-1. The side of the rotating wheel 2 is provided with three arc-shaped elastic elements 5-2. One end of the elastic element 5-2 is fixedly connected to the rotating wheel 2, and the other end is provided with a first locking block 5-3.
[0036] Please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 4 as well as Figure 5The diagram shows the structure of the rope reel 3 at several different angles according to an embodiment of the present invention. The rope reel 3 includes two symmetrically spaced support blocks 3-1. The top of each support block 3-1 has a first limiting plate 3-2, and the bottom of each support block 3-1 has a second limiting plate 3-3. A winding groove for winding rope is formed between the two limiting plates. The top of the first limiting plate 3-2 has an engaging portion with an annular engaging groove. Several first engaging teeth 3-7 are arranged circumferentially around the engaging portion, and all engaging teeth are inclined. The bottom of the rotating wheel 2 also has a second engaging tooth 3-9, which engages with the first engaging teeth 3-7 on the top of the rope reel 3.
[0037] Please refer to the following: Figure 7 , Figure 7 This is a schematic diagram of the connecting sleeve 4 in an embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, the connecting sleeve 4 is sleeved on the outside of the rope wheel 3, and the rope wheel 3 is rotatably disposed inside the connecting sleeve 4. A retaining strip 4-3 is provided on the top outer side of the connecting sleeve 4. The retaining strip 4-3 corresponds to the three retaining blocks provided on the inner side of the bottom of the rotating cover 1. During installation, by pressing the rotating cover 1, the second retaining block 1-2 is locked under the retaining strip 4-3, thereby completing the rotational connection between the rotating cover 1 and the connecting sleeve 4.
[0038] Reference Figure 8 , Figure 8 This is a schematic diagram of the inner structure of the rotating cover 1 according to an embodiment of the present utility model. The inner side of the rotating cover 1 is also provided with three L-shaped hooks distributed in a circle. The shape of the hooks corresponds to the outer side of the rotating wheel 2. During operation, the rotating cover 1 is fixed to the rotating wheel 2 by the hooks, thereby achieving synchronous rotation.
[0039] Please refer to the following: Figure 9 , Figure 9 This is a schematic diagram of the rope threading state according to an embodiment of the present invention. During installation, the rope wheel 3 is first inserted into the connecting sleeve 4 from bottom to top. Then, the rotating cover 1 and the rotating wheel 2 are assembled together through the positioning hole 5-1. Next, both ends of the rope to be wound are first threaded through the rope holes of the mounting base 4-1 of the connecting sleeve 4, and then guided from the rope groove to the threading position. The rope is then threaded through both sides of the threading position to the positions of the through holes 3-8, as shown below. Figure 9 As shown, tie the rope at both ends together to initially secure the rope. After securing the rope, align the second engaging tooth 3-9 at the bottom of the rotating wheel 2 with the first engaging tooth 3-7 of the first limiting plate 3-2. Through the engagement of the second piece of the rotating cover 1 with the retaining strip 4-3 on the outside of the connecting sleeve 4, insert the mounting protrusion into the rotating hole of the rotating wheel 2, causing the connecting sleeve 4 to rotate and connect with the rotating cover 1. Then, rotate the rotating cover 1 to control the remaining rope length. Finally, fix the connecting sleeve 4 to the base 5 to complete the installation of the shoe buckle.
[0040] This utility model has at least the following advantages:
[0041] 1. Ropes and cords have a wider range of applications:
[0042] By opening a rope threading position in the middle of the rope wheel 3 and opening a through hole 3-8 at its bottom, ropes of different softness and thickness can be fixed, expanding the product's application range and facilitating the fixing of ropes.
[0043] 2. Quick adjustment and self-locking function:
[0044] The rope length can be flexibly adjusted by the meshing teeth of the rotating cover 1 and the rotating wheel 2 (the second meshing tooth 3-9 and the first meshing tooth 3-7), and the meshing structure can automatically lock the tightness to prevent the shoelaces from coming loose accidentally.
[0045] 3. Easy to assemble and securely connected:
[0046] The rotating cover 1 is quickly aligned with the positioning hole 5-1 via the positioning block 1-1. Combined with the snap-fit design of the second snap block 1-2 and the connecting sleeve 4 and the snap strip 4-3, the installation steps are simplified. The fixing method of the L-shaped hook and the rotating wheel 2 further ensures the stability of the components when they rotate synchronously.
[0047] 4. Concealed cord design:
[0048] The two side limiting plates of the rope wheel 3 form winding grooves, which can completely store the rope inside the connecting sleeve 4, avoiding the problems of easy dirt and wear caused by exposure, while improving the appearance of the shoe surface.
[0049] 5. Suitable for a wide range of people:
[0050] The tightness can be adjusted with one hand by rotating the cover 1, saving time and effort, and is especially suitable for children, the elderly or people with mobility difficulties.
[0051] 6. Durability and ease of maintenance:
[0052] The arc-shaped elastic element 5-2 and the inclined design of the meshing teeth of the rotating wheel 2 reduce component wear; the modular structure (separate design of connecting sleeve 4 and base 5) facilitates disassembly, replacement or maintenance.
[0053] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
