Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of toy technology, specifically to a locking assembly and toy packaging structure. Background Technology

[0002] The packaging boxes for existing toy cars are not only crucial for protecting them from collisions, wear, and displacement during transportation and storage, but also directly determine the consumer's unpacking experience, the product's secondary storage, and its display effect. However, existing toy cars and packaging boxes mostly employ one or more fixing methods, such as customized mold cavity limiting, multiple sets of buckle splicing, and nylon cable ties. These fixing structures often need to strictly match the toy car's external dimensions, resulting in cumbersome structures and manufacturing processes, extremely poor adaptability, and incompatibility with different styles of toy car products.

[0003] From the perspective of fixed protection, the fixation method that relies solely on the mold cavity to limit and fit lacks a three-dimensional limiting mechanism. Although the toy car can be embedded in the mold cavity to avoid large horizontal displacement, it may still move, float, or sink along the height direction under scenarios such as transportation vibration and tilted handling, failing to achieve all-round three-dimensional fixation, thus increasing the risk of collision and wear. If cable ties are used for fixation, the toy car may shift or collide due to uneven force during transportation vibration and loading and unloading, causing quality problems such as paint scratches and parts falling off. Even if some packaging boxes use improved support structures, they can only achieve single-direction limiting fixation, and the lateral and longitudinal stability is insufficient, making it difficult to meet the protection requirements during transportation.

[0004] In terms of unpacking experience and resource utilization, using cable ties requires tools such as scissors or utility knives to cut the ties before removing the toy car. This is not only inconvenient (adults need to carry extra tools to unpack, and children are easily cut by the tools, posing a significant safety risk), but improper use of tools may also damage the toy car or the packaging box. Furthermore, the structure is completely damaged after the cable ties are removed, rendering the toy car unusable. Similarly, fasteners and molded cavity fixing structures easily lose their original structural integrity after unpacking, making the packaging box unusable as a secondary storage container for the toy car or a convenient display stand. Users need to purchase additional display racks, increasing usage costs and wasting packaging resources.

[0005] In view of the above, this utility model is hereby proposed. Utility Model Content

They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0056] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation" and "connection" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0057] Example 1: As Figures 1 to 7As shown, Embodiment 1 of this application provides a locking assembly, including: a locking mating member 1, a first rotary locking member 2, and a second rotary locking member 3. The locking mating member 1 is disposed on a carrier (not shown), and has a first locking groove 15 and a first insertion port 16 communicating with the first locking groove 15. The first rotary locking member 2 has a first connecting body 21 and a first clamping body 22, the first clamping body 22 being connected to the first connecting body 21, the first connecting body 21 being able to be inserted into the first locking groove 15 through the first insertion port 16, the first rotary locking member 2 being able to rotate so that the first connecting body 21 is locked in the first locking groove 15, and the first clamping body 22 having a second locking groove 223 and a second insertion port 2211 communicating with the second locking groove 223. The second rotary locking member 3 has a second rotary locking member 3 and a second connecting body 32 disposed on the second rotary locking member 3. The second connecting body 32 can be inserted into the second locking groove 223 through the second insertion port 2211. The rotation of the second connecting body 32 can cause the second connecting body 32 to be locked in the second locking groove 223, and a clamping space is formed between the second rotary locking member 3 and the first clamping body 22. The locking assembly of this application can quickly realize the disassembly and fixing of the toy part 4 to the packaging box through the rotary locking engagement of the first rotary locking member 2 and the second rotary locking member 3, without the need for external tools. The fixing is stable and meets the transportation protection requirements. The structure is undamaged after unpacking and can be reused, while keeping the packaging box intact for displaying the toy part 4, reducing the use cost, and improving the overall use value of the packaging and user experience.

[0058] In one possible implementation, such as Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the locking fitting 1 includes an end wall 11 and a peripheral side wall 12 disposed around a periphery of the end wall 11. The end wall 11 and the peripheral side wall 12 enclose the first locking groove 15. The first insertion port 16 includes a central port 161 and side ports 162 located on both sides of the central groove. The central port 161 and the side ports 162 are both located on the end wall 11, and the central port 161 communicates with the side ports 162. The first coupling body 21 includes a first shaft 211 and locking protrusions 212 disposed on both sides of the first shaft 211. The locking protrusions 212 extend radially along the first shaft 211. The first shaft 211 can be inserted into the first locking groove 15 through the central port 161, and the locking protrusions 212 can be inserted into the first locking groove 15 through the side ports 162. The rotation of the first rotary locking member 2 can cause the two locking protrusions 212 to engage with the end wall 11. With the above structure, the first rotary locking member 2 and the locking mating member 1 can be accurately inserted and rotated, with reliable positioning, firm limiting, and simple and quick disassembly and assembly operations.

[0059] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the locking component 1 includes a bottom wall 13 and a stop wall 14. The bottom wall 13 is connected to the peripheral side wall 12, and the stop wall 14 is located within the first locking groove 15 and on one side of the side opening 162 along the circumference of the end wall 11. The stop wall 14 connects the end wall 11, the bottom wall 13, and the peripheral side wall 12. When the first rotary locking component 2 rotates to its limit position, the locking protrusion 212 abuts against the stop wall 14. The stop wall 14 connects the end wall 11, the bottom wall 13, and the peripheral side wall 12, making the structural strength of the stop wall 14 higher. At the same time, the stop wall 14 can accurately limit the rotation of the first rotary locking component 2, avoiding over-rotation or under-rotation, ensuring accurate and reliable engagement, and improving the assembly stability and reliability of the locking assembly of this application.

[0060] In one possible implementation, such as Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, the first clamping body 22 includes a main board 221 and a side stop 222 disposed on the edge of the main board 221. A second locking groove 223 is formed between the main board 221 and the side stop 222. Two second insertion ports 2211 are provided on the main board 221, both extending circumferentially around the main board 221. The two second insertion ports 2211 are centrally symmetrically arranged. Two second coupling bodies 32 are provided on the second rotary locking member 3. The two second coupling bodies 32 can be inserted into the corresponding second insertion ports 2211 respectively. Rotation of the second rotary locking member 3 can cause the two second coupling bodies 32 to be respectively engaged in the second locking groove 223. Through the one-to-one correspondence between the two symmetrical second insertion ports 2211 and the two second coupling bodies 32, the force on the second rotary locking member 3 can be evenly distributed during the rotation and engagement process, avoiding local force concentration, thereby ensuring accurate and error-free engagement and positioning, making the overall fixation more secure and reliable, and significantly improving the connection stability and reliability of the locking assembly.

[0061] like Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 6As shown, one end of the second connector 2211 is provided with a radially extending notch 2211a. The radially extending notch 2211a extends radially towards the edge of the motherboard 221. A side protrusion 321 protrudes from one side of each of the two second connectors 32, and the side protrusion 321 can be inserted into the second locking groove 223 through the extending notch 2211a. The radially extending notch 2211a provides insertion clearance space for the side protrusion 321, effectively preventing interference between the side protrusion 321 and the edge of the motherboard 221 or the second connector 2211, ensuring that the side protrusion 321 smoothly enters the second locking groove 223, thereby achieving rapid assembly and reliable engagement between the second connector 32 and the second locking groove 223.

[0062] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, a recess 3211 is provided on the side protrusion 321, and a protrusion 2231 is provided on the inner wall of the second locking groove 223. When the second coupling body 32 is engaged and limited in the second locking groove 223, the protrusion 2231 is embedded in the recess 3211. The fitting structure of the protrusion 2231 and the recess 3211 can achieve precise positioning when the second coupling body 32 rotates to its limit position, effectively preventing the second coupling body 32 from rotating in the opposite direction and causing it to disengage, making the engagement more stable and reliable.

[0063] like Figure 4 As shown, the first clamping body 22 is circular, and the first connecting body 21 is vertically connected to the first clamping body 22. The first connecting body 21 is located on the central axis of the first clamping body 22, so that the first rotary locking member 2 is subjected to uniform rotational force, avoiding local force imbalance, ensuring smooth rotation, and improving the reliability and stability of the locking structure.

[0064] In one possible implementation, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, the second rotary locking component 3 includes a main body 311, a gripping part 312 is provided on one side of the main body 311 along the thickness direction, and a second connecting body 32 is provided on the other side of the main body 311 along the thickness direction. The gripping part 312 facilitates rotation operation by the user, and the reasonable arrangement of the second connecting body 32 makes disassembly and assembly operations more convenient and labor-saving, with a compact and reasonable structural layout.

[0065] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 6As shown, the pinching part 312 includes two pinching plates, both of which are vertically connected to the main body 311. The two pinching plates are spaced apart, and the middle of the two pinching plates protrudes towards each other, so that the opposite sides of the two pinching plates naturally form a concave area that fits the grip of the fingers. Its shape is more in line with the grip shape of human fingers, which not only allows the user to easily apply force to pinch, but also effectively prevents slipping during rotation operation, significantly improving the comfort and convenience of the operation process.

[0066] Example 2: Figure 7 As shown, Embodiment 2 of this application also provides a toy packaging structure, including: a packaging box (not shown), a toy component 4, and a locking assembly as described above. The packaging box has a carrier plate. The toy component 4 is located on one side of the carrier plate. A locking engagement 1 of the locking assembly is disposed on the toy component 4, a first rotary locking member 2 is engaged with the locking engagement 1, a second rotary locking member 3 is located on the side of the carrier plate opposite to the first rotary locking member 2, a second coupling body 32 of the second rotary locking member 3 passes through the carrier plate and is engaged with the first rotary locking member 2, and the first clamping body 22 and the second rotary locking member 3 are clamped and fixed on the carrier plate. The locking engagement 1 can be integrally formed or assembled with the toy component 4, and the carrier plate can be cardboard inside the packaging box. The toy packaging structure of this application achieves a stable clamping of the toy component 4 and the packaging box carrier plate through the locking assembly. Assembly and disassembly are tool-free and easy to operate. It ensures the positioning reliability of the toy component 4 during transportation and storage, and the structure is undamaged and reusable after unpacking. At the same time, it keeps the packaging box intact for displaying the toy component 4, reduces usage costs, and improves the overall use value of the packaging and user experience.
