Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electrical equipment technology, and in particular to an embedded flip socket. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional recessed sockets typically require the frame to be fixed upwards from the bottom of the desktop into the mounting hole, relying on screws or bottom-mounted clips for fastening. For example, patent CN209592438U mentions a stepped design with clamping clips to adapt to different desktop thicknesses, but this solution requires adjusting the clip height from the bottom, making the operation cumbersome. Furthermore, in existing solutions, the clips are often integrated into the bottom or side wall of the socket frame, still requiring adjustment or fixing from below the desktop during installation, leading to difficulties in operation in confined spaces or under complex desktop structures, resulting in low installation efficiency. In addition, the clip structures in existing technologies are prone to wear and tear over long-term use, leading to a decrease in the fixing effect and affecting the stability of the socket.

[0003] To address the aforementioned issues, existing technologies urgently need improvement. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the aforementioned problems, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an embedded flip socket, which has the advantages of simplifying the installation process, improving installation efficiency, and enhancing stability.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] This application provides an embedded flip-out socket, the technical solution of which is as follows: An embedded flip-out socket includes a frame and a socket body. The upper end of the frame has a panel through-hole, and the two ends of the socket body are respectively hinged to the frame. The socket body can be flipped relative to the frame, so that the power supply panel of the socket body is exposed through the panel through-hole, or the non-power supply panel closes the panel through-hole. It also includes a snap-fit ​​plate fixed to the opposite edges of the table hole, and the snap-fit ​​plate has a locking slot. The outer wall of the side support of the frame is provided with an elastic hook. During the process of inserting the embedded flip-out socket into the table hole, the elastic hook is squeezed and deformed by the snap-fit ​​plate to avoid it, until it moves to the locking slot position, releases, and locks into the locking slot. At this time, the desktop of the frame is supported on the edge of the table hole, and the snap-fit ​​plate above the locking slot is clamped between the elastic hook and the desktop.

[0007] Furthermore, this application also proposes that the lower end of the elastic hook is integrally connected to the outer wall of the side bracket, and the outer wall of the side bracket is provided with an avoidance groove inside the elastic hook.

[0008] Furthermore, this application also proposes that the other two outer walls of the frame are provided with multiple elastic barbs below the desktop panel. During the process of inserting the embedded flip socket into the table hole, the hook portion of the elastic barb is squeezed and deformed by the edge of the table hole to avoid it. After assembly, the hook portion of the elastic barb returns to the range of the edge of the table hole.

[0009] Furthermore, this application also proposes that the outer wall of the frame is provided with a sliding groove, and at least one side of the sliding groove is provided with a loading and unloading port. The elastic barb is provided with a slider, which can be loaded into or unloaded from the sliding groove through the loading and unloading port and move along the sliding groove.

[0010] Furthermore, this application also proposes that the upper and lower sides of the slide groove are provided with retaining edges, and the retaining edges form a gap with the outer wall of the frame. The slider of the elastic barb is slidably disposed in the gap on the upper and lower sides, and the hook of the elastic barb protrudes from the slide groove.

[0011] Furthermore, this application also proposes that the socket body has a shaft hole for wiring on its side, and at least one side of the side bracket has a wiring chamber that mates with the shaft hole on its inner wall. The edge of the wiring chamber has a wiring groove. The power cord is introduced into the wiring chamber through the wiring groove and then enters the socket body through the shaft hole. The wiring groove is provided with a clamping plate for pressing the power cord.

[0012] Furthermore, this application also proposes that the two side walls of the socket body are provided with a frustum centered on the axis of the shaft hole and a torsion spring groove surrounding the frustum. The side bracket is provided with a bushing that fits onto the frustum and an annular plate covering the torsion spring groove. When the socket body is assembled with the side bracket, the bushing aligns with the frustum, the annular plate covers the torsion spring groove, and a torsion spring is provided in the torsion spring groove. The two ends of the torsion spring are respectively connected to the side wall of the torsion spring groove and the annular plate. The elastic force of the torsion spring drives the socket body to open relative to the frame.

[0013] The annular plate is provided with multiple positioning holes for adjusting the snap-in position of the torsion spring end to change the elastic force.

[0014] Furthermore, this application also proposes that on the side bracket corresponding to the shaft hole on the socket body, the bushing and the annular plate form a wiring chamber on the side bracket, and both the bushing and the annular plate are provided with wiring grooves.

[0015] Furthermore, this application also proposes that a damper is installed on the side bracket, and the output end of the damper is provided with an output gear. An arc-shaped rack with the axis of the shaft hole as its center is provided on the side wall of the socket body, and the output gear meshes with the arc-shaped rack. The damper is a one-way damper, providing rotational resistance only when the socket body is opened by the action of a torsion spring.

[0016] Furthermore, this application also proposes that one of the side surfaces of the socket body and the inner wall of the side bracket is provided with a latch, and the other is provided with a push-to-rebound mechanism. When the socket body is flipped to close the through hole of the non-power-out panel, the latch and the push-to-rebound mechanism engage and lock.

[0017] As can be seen from the above, the embedded flip socket and its installation structure provided in this application can completely eliminate bottom operation. Through the adaptive cooperation of pre-installed components and elastic hooks, installation can be completed by embedding from one side above the desktop. At the same time, it ensures the long-term reliability and wear resistance of the buckle structure, thereby simplifying the process and improving installation efficiency and stability.

[0028] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.

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.

[0030] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more, unless otherwise expressly defined.

[0031] In this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "linking," and "fixing," etc., 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, or a connection within two components. For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0032] In this invention, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, "above" or "below" the second feature can include direct contact between the first and second features, or contact between the first and second features through another feature between them. Furthermore, "above," "over," and "on top" of the second feature includes the first feature directly above or diagonally above the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is at a higher horizontal level than the second feature. "Below," "below," and "under" the second feature includes the first feature directly below or diagonally below the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is at a lower horizontal level than the second feature.

[0033] like Figure 1-10As shown, this embodiment relates to an embedded flip socket, including a frame 2 and a socket body 1. The upper end of the frame 2 is provided with a panel through hole 3. The two ends of the socket body 1 are respectively hinged to the frame 2. The socket body 1 can be flipped relative to the frame 2, so that the power supply panel 101 of the socket body 1 is exposed through the panel through hole 3 or the non-power supply panel 102 is closed through the panel through hole 3. Thus, the technical solution of this application, through the hinged design of the frame 2 and the socket body 1, enables the socket body 1 to be flipped, thereby realizing the exposure or closure of the power supply panel 101.

[0034] like Figure 4 and 5 As shown, the socket body 1 has a shaft hole 13 for wiring on its side. At least one side of the side bracket 30 has a wiring chamber 14 on its inner wall that mates with the shaft hole 13. The edge of the wiring chamber 14 has a wiring groove 15. The power cord is introduced into the wiring chamber 14 through the wiring groove 15 and then enters the socket body 1 through the shaft hole 13. Specifically, the shaft hole 13 is designed to guide the power cord into the socket body 1, ensuring a clear wiring path. The wiring chamber 14 mates with the shaft hole 13, and its edge has a wiring groove 15 for introducing the power cord into the wiring chamber 14, preventing the power cord from becoming tangled during wiring. Furthermore, the wiring groove 15 has a clamping plate 16 for clamping the power cord. The clamping plate 16 is placed on the wiring groove 15 to clamp the power cord, ensuring that the power cord is securely fixed during wiring and preventing loosening or detachment. As a preferred embodiment, the clamping plate 16 can be fixed to the wiring groove 15 by screws or clips, further ensuring the stability of the power cord. Furthermore, the inner wall of the wiring chamber 14 can be provided with anti-slip texture to increase the friction between the power cord and the chamber, further preventing the power cord from slipping. Thus, through the cooperation of the shaft hole 13, the wiring chamber 14, the cable routing slot 15, and the wire clamping plate 16, the technical problems of insecure power cord fixation and messy wiring during the wiring process of the embedded flip socket are solved. The design of the shaft hole 13 and the wiring chamber 14 ensures a clear wiring path for the power cord, avoiding messiness during the wiring process. The application of the wire clamping plate 16 ensures that the power cord is securely fixed during the wiring process, preventing the power cord from loosening or falling off. Compared with the prior art, this application moves the wire clamping structure from inside the socket body 1 to the side bracket 30, simplifying the wiring fixation and improving the reliability and neatness of the wiring.

[0035] like Figure 4-7As shown, the socket body 1 has a frustum 17 centered on the axis of the shaft hole 13 on both side walls, and a torsion spring groove 18 surrounding the frustum 17. The side bracket 30 has a bushing 19 that fits onto the frustum 17 and an annular plate 20 covering the torsion spring groove 18. When the socket body 1 is assembled with the side bracket 30, the bushing 19 aligns with the frustum 17, the annular plate 20 covers the torsion spring groove 18, and a torsion spring 21 is installed inside the torsion spring groove 18. The two ends of the torsion spring 21 are connected to the side wall of the torsion spring groove 18 and the annular plate 20, respectively. The elastic force of the torsion spring 21 drives the socket body 1 to open relative to the frame 2. Specifically, the design of the frustum 17 and the torsion spring groove 18 allows the socket body 1 to rotate around the axis of the shaft hole 13. The alignment of the bushing 19 with the frustum 17 ensures the stability of the socket body 1 during rotation. The annular plate 20 covers the torsion spring groove 18, ensuring the stable installation of the torsion spring 21 within the torsion spring groove 18. The two ends of the torsion spring 21 are connected to the side wall of the torsion spring groove 18 and the annular plate 20, respectively. The elastic force of the torsion spring 21 drives the socket body 1 to open relative to the frame 2. This design, through the coordinated design of the frustum 17, the torsion spring groove 18, the bushing 19, and the annular plate 20, ensures the stability and flexibility of the socket body 1's rotation and achieves precise control of the rotation force. Compared with the prior art, the design of this application simplifies the structure, improves the convenience and reliability of operation, and makes the rotation of the socket body 1 more stable and controllable.

[0036] Furthermore, the annular plate 20 is provided with multiple positioning holes 22 for adjusting the snap-in position of the end of the torsion spring 21 to change the elastic force, thereby adjusting the flipping force of the socket body 1. Thus, the technical solution of this application solves the technical problem of needing stable driving and adjustable elastic force during the flipping process of the socket body 1 by using the elastic force drive of the torsion spring 21 and the adjustment of the positioning holes 22 on the annular plate 20.

[0037] like Figure 5As shown, on the side bracket 30 corresponding to the side of the shaft hole 13 on the socket body 1, the bushing 19 and the annular plate 20 enclose a wiring chamber 14 on the side bracket 30, and both the bushing 19 and the annular plate 20 are provided with wiring slots 15. The wiring chamber 14 is formed by the enclosure of the bushing 19 and the annular plate 20. The structural design of the bushing 19 and the annular plate 20 makes the wiring chamber 14, the bushing 19, and the annular plate 20 form a whole, reducing the number of individual parts and simplifying the assembly process. The wiring slots 15 allow the power cord to be easily introduced into the wiring chamber 14 through these slots and further connected to the socket body 1. As a preferred embodiment, the inner wall of the wiring slot 15 can be provided with anti-slip texture or elastic material to increase the fixing effect of the power cord and prevent it from sliding or falling off during wiring. This technical solution integrates the wiring chamber 14 with the bushing 19 and the annular plate 20 through integrated design, improving the space utilization of the wiring chamber 14 and making wiring more convenient and orderly. The wiring slots 15 on the bushing 19 and the annular plate 20 allow power lines to be quickly and accurately introduced into the wiring chamber 14, reducing the complexity and potential errors in the wiring process. Compared with existing technologies, this solution not only simplifies the assembly process but also optimizes the function of the wiring chamber 14, achieving the integration of multifunctional components and improving the compactness and practicality of the overall structure.

[0038] like Figure 5 As shown, a damper is mounted on the side bracket 30, and the output end of the damper is equipped with an output gear 24. An arc-shaped rack 25 with the axis of the shaft hole 13 as its center is provided on the side wall of the socket body 1, and the output gear 24 meshes with the arc-shaped rack 25. The damper is a one-way damper, providing rotational resistance only when the socket body 1 is opened by the torsion spring 21. Specifically, the damper can be installed by bolting it to the side bracket 30, and the output gear 24 is directly connected to the output shaft of the damper. The arc-shaped rack 25 can be stamped or injection molded onto the side wall of the socket body 1, and its tooth profile design must match the tooth profile of the output gear 24 to ensure smooth meshing. The one-way damper can be implemented through an internal mechanical structure or hydraulic system to ensure that it provides resistance only when the socket body 1 is open, and does not generate resistance when closed. Furthermore, the damping force of the damper can be adjusted by regulating the internal structure or the viscosity of the hydraulic oil to adapt to different usage requirements. Therefore, this application achieves a slow opening of the socket body 1 during the flipping process through the cooperation of the damper and the arc-shaped rack 25, avoiding the inconvenience or safety hazards caused by rapid opening due to the action of the torsion spring 21. The design of the unidirectional damper ensures that it provides resistance when the socket body 1 is opened, but has no effect when closed, thereby improving the safety and convenience of use. Compared with the prior art, this technical solution achieves an effective damping effect through a simple mechanical structure, and does not require a complex control system, thus having high practicality and reliability.

[0039] Furthermore, one of the sides of the socket body 1 and the inner wall of the side bracket 30 is provided with a latch 26, and the other is provided with a push-to-open mechanism 27. When the socket body 1 is flipped to close the panel through hole 3 of the non-power supply panel 102, the latch 26 and the push-to-open mechanism 27 engage and lock. The latch 26 can be designed as a protruding latching structure, and the push-to-open mechanism 27 can be an elastic latching device with a spring. The latch 26 and the push-to-open mechanism 27 can be engaged by inserting the latch 26 into the slot of the push-to-open mechanism 27, and locking is achieved by the spring force. In addition, the positions of the latch 26 and the push-to-open mechanism 27 can be interchanged, that is, the latch 26 is located on the inner wall of the side bracket 30, and the push-to-open mechanism 27 is located on the side of the socket body 1. The shape of the latch 26 can be rectangular, circular, or other geometric shapes, and the spring of the push-to-open mechanism 27 can be a coil spring, a leaf spring, or other elastic element. This technical solution, through the cooperation of the latch 26 and the push-to-rebound mechanism 27, achieves stable locking of the socket body 1 in the non-powered state, preventing accidental flipping or loosening of the socket body 1. The latch 26 and push-to-rebound mechanism 27 are simple and effective, enhancing the reliability and safety of the overall structure. Compared with existing technologies, this solution does not require complex mechanical structures; it solves the instability problem of the socket body 1 through a simple snap-locking mechanism, demonstrating high practicality and innovation.

[0040] like Figure 1-3 As shown, this solution also includes snap-fit ​​plates 28 fixed to the opposite edges of the table hole, with snap-fit ​​plates 28 having slots 29 formed on them. The outer wall of the side support 30 of the frame 2 is provided with elastic hooks 4. During the insertion of the recessed flip socket into the table hole, the elastic hooks 4 are deformed by the snap-fit ​​plates 28 to avoid it, until they move to the slot 29 position, release, and engage with the slot 29. At this time, the desktop plate 6 of the frame 2 is mounted on the edge of the table hole, and the snap-fit ​​plates 28 above the slots 29 are clamped between the elastic hooks 4 and the desktop plate 6. The design of the elastic hooks 4 allows them to adapt to the compression of the snap-fit ​​plates 28 during installation, deforming to avoid it and ultimately engaging with the slots 29, thus achieving a stable installation. The slot design of the snap-fit ​​plates 28 ensures that the elastic hooks 4 can accurately engage after release, avoiding deviations during installation. The desktop plate 6 of the frame 2 is mounted on the edge of the table hole, further enhancing the stability of the installation. The snap plate 28 is held between the elastic hook 4 and the desktop plate 6, ensuring reliability for long-term use.

[0041] Specifically, the material of the elastic hook 4 can be selected from engineering plastics or metals with good elasticity and wear resistance to ensure that it maintains its performance during repeated installation and disassembly. For example... Figure 1-3As shown in Figure 9, the snap-on plate 28 is fixed to the inner wall of the table hole by screws. Specifically, the snap-on plate 28 has through holes, through which screws pass to secure the snap-on plate to the inner wall of the table hole. Based on this, as... Figure 10 As shown, the through hole can be set as a strip hole in the vertical direction, so that the height of the buckle plate 28 can be adjusted appropriately to accommodate more tabletop thicknesses.

[0042] The shape of the latch 29 of the snap-on plate 28 can be designed as rectangular, circular, or other geometric shapes according to actual needs to adapt to different installation environments. The contact surface between the desktop plate 6 and the edge of the table hole can be designed with an anti-slip structure to increase friction and prevent the socket from shifting during use. The cooperative design of the snap-on plate 28 and the elastic hook 4 allows the recessed flip socket to be installed simply by inserting it from one side above the desktop, eliminating the need for operation from the bottom of the desktop. During installation, the elastic hook 4 is squeezed and deformed by the snap-on plate 28 to avoid being pushed, until it moves to the position of the latch 29 and is released and locked into the latch 29, ensuring that the desktop plate 6 of the frame 2 is supported on the edge of the table hole, and the snap-on plate 28 above the latch 29 is clamped between the elastic hook 4 and the desktop plate 6, thus achieving a stable installation. Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of this application simplifies the installation process, improves installation efficiency, and ensures the stability of the installation and the reliability of long-term use. The design of inserting from one side above the desktop avoids the difficulty of operation in narrow spaces or under complex table structures, improving the user experience.

[0043] like Figure 9As shown, the lower end of the elastic hook 4 is integrally connected to the outer wall of the side bracket 30, and the outer wall of the side bracket 30 has a relief groove 5 inside the elastic hook 4. The relief groove 5 provides sufficient deformation space for the elastic hook 4 during installation, allowing it to deform smoothly and avoid pressure from the snap plate 28 until it moves to the snap-fit ​​position 29 and is released and engaged in the snap-fit ​​position 29. Specifically, the shape and size of the relief groove 5 can be adjusted according to actual installation requirements. For example, the relief groove 5 can be straight, arc-shaped, or other suitable shapes to ensure that the elastic hook 4 can deform smoothly during installation. As a preferred embodiment, the depth and width of the relief groove 5 can be optimized according to the material and thickness of the elastic hook 4 to provide the best deformation space. Therefore, the technical solution of this application enhances the connection strength between the elastic hook 4 and the side bracket 30 through the integral connection design of the elastic hook 4 and the outer wall of the side bracket 30, ensuring that the elastic hook 4 can withstand greater compressive force during installation without easily falling off or breaking. Meanwhile, the design of the clearance groove 5 not only simplifies the installation process but also improves the reliability and efficiency of installation. Compared with existing technologies, the technical solution of this application abandons the traditional method of adjustment or fixing from below the desktop. Through the adaptive cooperation of pre-installed components and elastic hooks 4, installation can be completed by embedding from one side above the desktop, thereby significantly improving installation efficiency and stability.

[0044] like Figure 3 and 8As shown, the other two outer walls of frame 2 are provided with multiple elastic hooks 7 below the desktop panel 6. During the insertion of the recessed flip-out socket into the table hole, the hook of the elastic hook 7 is squeezed and deformed by the edge of the table hole to avoid it. After assembly, the hook of the elastic hook 7 returns to the edge range of the table hole. The hook of the elastic hook 7 is squeezed and deformed by the edge of the table hole during installation, thereby avoiding the edge of the table hole, so that the socket can be smoothly inserted into the table hole. After assembly, the hook of the elastic hook 7 returns to the edge range of the table hole, and through cooperation with the edge of the table hole, the socket is firmly fixed. This design simplifies the installation process through the adaptive deformation and return of the elastic hook 7, eliminating the need for operation from under the desktop and improving installation efficiency and stability. The return of the hook of the elastic hook 7 to the edge range of the table hole means that the edge of the table hole will interfere with the hook of the elastic hook 7, preventing the socket from being removed from the table hole. Specifically, the elastic hook 7 can be made of various materials, such as spring steel or elastic plastic materials, to ensure that it can effectively deform and return to its original position during installation. Furthermore, the number and distribution of the flexible hooks 7 can be adjusted according to the size and shape of the table hole to ensure that the socket is evenly stressed after installation, avoiding damage caused by localized stress concentration. Thus, this application, through the design of the flexible hooks 7, achieves the effect of installing the recessed flip-out socket simply by inserting it from one side above the table. Compared with existing technologies, this solution eliminates the need for operation from below the table, simplifying the installation process and improving efficiency. Simultaneously, the adaptive deformation and reset characteristics of the flexible hooks 7 ensure the stability of the socket after installation, avoiding the installation difficulties caused by limited operating space or complex structures in traditional solutions. This design not only improves the ease of installation but also enhances the long-term reliability and wear resistance of the socket.

[0045] In the specific design, a groove 8 is provided on the outer wall of the frame 2, and a loading / unloading port 9 is provided on at least one side of the groove 8. A slider 10 is provided on the elastic barb 7, which can be inserted into or removed from the groove 8 through the loading / unloading port 9 and move along the groove 8. The design of the groove 8 allows the elastic barb 7 to move flexibly on the outer wall of the frame 2, while the loading / unloading port 9 facilitates the installation and removal of the slider 10. Specifically, the groove 8 can be designed as a straight line or a curve to accommodate the shape and size of different table hole edges. As a preferred embodiment, the upper and lower sides of the groove 8 can be provided with retaining edges 11, forming a gap 12 between the retaining edges 11 and the outer wall of the frame 2. The slider 10 slides in the gap 12, ensuring that the hook of the elastic barb 7 protrudes from the groove 8 and can stably engage with the edge of the table hole. Therefore, the design of the groove 8 and the loading / unloading port 9 makes the installation and removal of the elastic barb 7 more convenient, eliminating the need for operation from under the tabletop. The slider 10 on the flexible hook 7 can move within the groove 8, allowing the flexible hook 7 to be flexibly adjusted in position and quantity to adapt to the size and shape of different table hole edges. This design simplifies the installation process, improves installation efficiency, and ensures the stability and reliability of the recessed flip socket. Compared with existing technologies, this application, through the innovative design of the groove 8 and the loading / unloading port 9, completely eliminates the cumbersome steps required from the bottom of the table in traditional installation methods, achieving the goal of installation by embedding from one side above the table, significantly improving the convenience and efficiency of installation.

[0046] Furthermore, the upper and lower sides of the slide groove 8 are provided with retaining edges 11, forming a gap 12 between the retaining edges 11 and the outer wall of the frame 2. The slider 10 of the elastic barb 7 is slidably disposed in the gap 12 on both the upper and lower sides, with the hook of the elastic barb 7 protruding from the slide groove 8. Specifically, the design of the retaining edges 11 can restrict the vertical movement of the slider 10 in the slide groove 8, preventing the slider 10 from falling off during installation. The formation of the gap 12 makes the slider 10 more stable when moving in the slide groove 8, and less prone to displacement or shaking. The slider 10 of the elastic barb 7 is slidably disposed in the gap 12, ensuring a tighter fit between the slider 10 and the slide groove 8. The hook of the elastic barb 7 protruding from the slide groove 8 allows the hook to effectively contact and fix with the edge of the table hole. As a preferred embodiment, the retaining edges 11 can be integrally formed with the outer wall of the frame 2 or fixed by welding, riveting, or other methods. The width of the gap 12 can be adjusted according to the size of the slider 10 to ensure that the slider 10 can slide smoothly in the gap 12 without generating excessive gaps. The slider 10 can be made of a material with good wear resistance and elasticity to extend its service life and improve its stability. To address this, the technical solution of this application effectively solves the technical problem of the slider 10, which is prone to detachment or unstable movement during installation, through the design of the retaining edge 11 and the slot 12. Compared with the prior art, this solution significantly improves the stability and installation reliability of the slider 10 through simple structural improvements, while simplifying the installation process and increasing operational efficiency.
