Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of installation and positioning technology, and in particular to a positioning device. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, to save energy, lighting fixtures are typically powered by solar photovoltaic panels. In related technologies, both the lighting fixtures and the solar photovoltaic panels are mounted on the light pole. However, the installation position of the solar photovoltaic panels relative to the light pole is prone to misalignment, leading to a decrease in the installation stability of the solar photovoltaic panels. Utility Model Content

[0003] The inventors of this application recognized that during the installation of solar photovoltaic panels onto light poles, the installation position of the solar photovoltaic panels relative to the light pole is prone to shift, leading to a decrease in the installation stability of the solar photovoltaic panels. The purpose of this utility model is to provide a positioning device that aims to solve the technical problem of installation stability of existing solar photovoltaic panels.

[0004] The basic concept proposed by the inventors of this application is that, during the installation of solar photovoltaic panels, the first and second free ends of the positioning component can be separated to open the positioning space. Then, the light pole can be placed into the positioning space, and the first and second free ends can be reconnected to close the positioning space, thus completing the positioning operation between the positioning component and the light pole. The limiting component is then connected to the solar photovoltaic panel to limit the relative position between the solar photovoltaic panel and the positioning component, thereby limiting the installation position of the solar photovoltaic panel and the light pole. This effectively improves the situation where the installation position of the solar photovoltaic panel relative to the light pole is prone to deviation, and effectively improves the installation stability of the solar photovoltaic panel.

[0005] This application provides a positioning device, including a positioning component and a limiting component. The positioning component includes a first body and a second body pivotally connected together. The first body and the second body cooperate to define a positioning space for accommodating a support member. The first body has a first free end, and the second body has a second free end. The first free end and the second free end are detachably connected to open or close the positioning space. The limiting component is mounted on the positioning component and is used to dock with a component to be installed to limit the relative position between the component to be installed and the positioning component.

[0006] The positioning device provided in this application embodiment has at least the following beneficial effects: By pivotally connecting the first main body and the second main body together and detachably connecting the first free end and the second free end, when installing the part to be installed, the first free end and the second free end of the positioning component can be separated first to open the positioning space, then the support can be placed into the positioning space, and then the first free end and the second free end can be reconnected to close the positioning space, thus completing the positioning operation between the positioning component and the support. The limiting component is then connected to the part to be installed to limit the relative position between the part to be installed and the positioning component, thereby limiting the installation position between the part to be installed and the support, thereby effectively improving the situation where the installation position of the part to be installed relative to the support is prone to deviation, and effectively improving the installation stability of the part to be installed.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, not only can the positioning component adapt to the outer diameter of the support to match the support, but the positioning component and the support can also fit together more tightly, improving the positioning accuracy between the positioning component and the support. This more effectively improves the situation where the installation position of the part to be installed is prone to offset relative to the support, and further improves the installation stability of the part to be installed.

[0009] In some embodiments of this application, the first body includes a first ring segment and a second ring segment, and the second body includes a third ring segment and a fourth ring segment. The first ring segment and the third ring segment are joined to form a first ring body, and the second ring segment and the fourth ring segment are joined to form a second ring body. The first ring body has a first sub-positioning space, and the second ring body has a second sub-positioning space. The first sub-positioning space and the second sub-positioning space are connected to form a positioning space. The first ring body and the second ring body are coaxially arranged and rotatably connected. A plurality of clamping members are rotatably connected to the positioning assembly. The positioning device also includes a toggle structure, which is used to drive the plurality of clamping members to rotate when the first ring body and the second ring body rotate relative to each other, so that the plurality of clamping members extend into or leave the positioning space.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, during the coaxial rotation of the first ring and the second ring, the toggle structure can drive multiple clamping parts to extend into or leave the positioning space. The structure is simple and the operation is convenient.

[0011] In some embodiments of this application, the actuating structure includes multiple guide grooves and multiple levers, with the multiple levers being inserted into the multiple guide grooves in a one-to-one correspondence; the multiple levers are all connected to the positioning assembly, and the multiple guide grooves are correspondingly formed on the multiple clamping members; or, the multiple guide grooves are all formed on the positioning assembly, and the multiple levers are correspondingly connected to the multiple clamping members.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, during the coaxial rotation of the first ring and the second ring, the lever can move relative to the clamping member along the guide groove to drive the clamping member to extend into or leave the positioning space. This not only has a simple structure but also high reliability.

[0013] In some embodiments of this application, the positioning device further includes a positioning pin, a first positioning hole is provided in the first ring segment, and a second positioning hole is provided in the second ring segment, the positioning pin being used to pass through the first positioning hole and the second positioning hole.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, under the positioning action of the positioning pin, the first and second ring segments can move synchronously relative to the third and fourth ring segments, thereby making it easier to open or close the positioning space.

[0015] In some embodiments of this application, the positioning component further includes a first grip and a second grip, the first grip being connected to the first ring body and protruding from the outer periphery of the first ring body, and the second grip being connected to the second ring body and protruding from the outer periphery of the second ring body.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the first handle and the second handle can be held to drive the first ring body and the second ring body to rotate coaxially, thereby driving multiple clamping parts to extend into or leave the positioning space, making the operation convenient.

[0017] In some embodiments of this application, the positioning device further includes an anti-loosening structure, which includes anti-loosening teeth, a support member, and an elastic member; the anti-loosening teeth are disposed on the first ring body and extend circumferentially along the first ring body, the support member is rotatably connected to the second handle, and the elastic member is connected between one end of the support member and the second handle; or, the anti-loosening teeth are disposed on the second ring body and extend circumferentially along the second ring body, the support member is rotatably connected to the first handle, and the elastic member is connected between one end of the support member and the first handle; the elastic member is used to apply an elastic force to one end of the support member so that the other end of the support member presses against the anti-loosening teeth.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, when the first ring body and the second ring body rotate coaxially to press the support member with multiple clamping parts, one end of the support member can press against the anti-loosening tooth under the elastic action of the elastic member, so as to restrict the relative rotation of the first ring body and the second ring body, so that the multiple clamping parts and the support member maintain a tight fit and have high reliability.

[0019] In some embodiments of this application, the limiting component includes a first limiting member and a second limiting member. The first limiting member is mounted on a first main body, and the second limiting member is mounted on a second main body. The first limiting member and the second limiting member cooperate with each other to limit the relative position of the part to be installed and the positioning component.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, after the support is placed into the positioning space and the positioning space is closed, the first limiting member and the second limiting member can cooperate to clamp the part to be installed, which effectively improves the positioning accuracy of the limiting component and the part to be installed, thereby more effectively improving the situation that the installation position of the part to be installed is prone to deviation relative to the support, and further improving the installation stability of the part to be installed.

[0024] By adopting the above technical solution, it is not only easy to separate the first free end and the second free end to open the positioning space, but also the snap-fit ​​assembly can effectively restrict the relative position of the first free end and the second free end when the positioning space is closed, thereby effectively reducing the risk of the first free end detaching from the second free end and achieving high reliability.

[0048] In this application, unless otherwise expressly 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 part; 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; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application according to the specific circumstances.

[0049] Please refer to the following: Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 6 and Figure 7This application provides a positioning device 100, including a positioning component 10 and a limiting component 20. The positioning component 10 includes a first body 11 and a second body 12 pivotally connected together. The first body 11 and the second body 12 cooperate to define a positioning space 13 for accommodating a support member 200. The first body 11 has a first free end 111, and the second body 12 has a second free end 121. The first free end 111 and the second free end 121 are detachably connected to open or close the positioning space 13. The limiting component 20 is installed on the positioning component 10 and is used to dock with the member to be installed 300 to limit the relative position between the member to be installed 300 and the positioning component 10.

[0050] Understandably, the first body 11 and the second body 12 can rotate relative to each other, so that the first free end 111 and the second free end 121 can separate from each other or connect with each other. Specifically, when the first body 11 and the second body 12 rotate relative to each other to separate the first free end 111 and the second free end 121, an opening is formed between the first free end 111 and the second free end 121. This opening connects to the aforementioned positioning space 13. The support member 200 can enter the positioning space 13 through this opening. After the support member 200 enters the positioning space 13, the first body 11 and the second body 12 can rotate in the opposite direction, so that the first free end 111 and the second free end 121 connect with each other. That is, the first body 11 and the second body 12 cooperate to form a closed loop structure to close the positioning space 13, thereby realizing the positioning of the positioning component 10 and the support member 200.

[0051] The connection between the first free end 111 and the second free end 121 can be, but is not limited to, snap-fit ​​connection, fastening connection, etc.

[0052] In some embodiments, please refer to the following: Figure 1 and Figure 2 The first body 11 also has a first hinge end 114, with a first free end 111 and the first hinge end 114 respectively disposed at opposite ends of the first body 11. The second body 12 also has a second hinge end 124, with a second free end 121 and the second hinge end 124 respectively disposed at opposite ends of the second body 12. The first hinge end 114 and the second hinge end 124 are hinged together. As an example, the positioning assembly 10 also includes a hinge 19, with the first hinge end 114 and the second hinge end 124 hinged together by the hinge 19, so that the first hinge end 114 and the second hinge end 124 can rotate relative to each other about the rotation axis of the hinge 19.

[0053] In some embodiments, the shape of the positioning space 13 may be adapted to the outer peripheral contour shape of the support member 200. For example, both the shape of the positioning space 13 and the outer peripheral contour shape of the support member 200 may be circular; or both the shape of the positioning space 13 and the outer peripheral contour shape of the support member 200 may be polygonal. No specific limitation is made here.

[0054] In some embodiments, the inner diameter of the positioning space 13 can be adapted to the outer diameter of the support 200. For example, the inner diameter of the positioning space 13 is approximately equal to the outer diameter of the support 200, so that the inner peripheral wall of the positioning space 13 can approximately fit against the outer peripheral wall of the support 200, thereby achieving the positioning of the positioning component 10 and the support 200.

[0055] In other embodiments, the inner diameter of the positioning space 13 may be larger than the outer diameter of the support 200, and the support 200 may be fixed and restricted within the positioning space 13 by other components, thereby achieving the positioning of the positioning component 10 and the support 200.

[0056] Understandably, the limiting component 20 and the positioning component 10 are relatively fixed. When the support member 200 is placed into the positioning space 13 and the positioning space 13 is in a closed state, the limiting component 20 and the part to be installed 300 are docked and fixed, so that the part to be installed 300 and the support member 200 are relatively fixed, thereby achieving the positioning of the part to be installed 300 and the support member 200. The connection method between the limiting component 20 and the positioning component 10 can be, but is not limited to, fastening, welding, bonding, etc.

[0057] In some embodiments, the limiting component 20 may be annular in shape. The limiting component 20 may be sleeved on the outer periphery of the component to be installed 300 to limit its position, or it may be inserted into the component to be installed 300 to limit its position. The shape of the limiting component 20 may be adapted to the shape of the component to be installed 300. For example, both the shape of the limiting component 20 and the shape of the component to be installed 300 may be circular; or both the shape of the limiting component 20 and the shape of the component to be installed 300 may be polygonal; no specific limitation is made here.

[0058] In some embodiments, such as Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the support member 200 is a light pole, and the component to be installed 300 is a solar photovoltaic panel. The solar photovoltaic panel has a ring-shaped structure and is fitted onto and fixedly installed on the light pole. During installation, the first main body 11 and the second main body 12 can be rotated relative to each other, causing the first free end 111 and the second free end 121 of the positioning component 10 to separate, thus opening the positioning space 13. The support member 200 is then placed into the positioning space 13. Next, the first main body 11 and the second main body 12 are rotated in the opposite direction, causing the first free end 111 and the second free end 121 to reconnect, thus closing the positioning space 13. This completes the positioning operation between the positioning component 10 and the light pole. The limiting component 20 is then connected to the solar photovoltaic panel to restrict the relative position of the solar photovoltaic panel and the positioning component 10, thereby restricting the installation position of the solar photovoltaic panel and the light pole. After completing the positioning operation, the solar photovoltaic panel can be fixedly connected to the light pole.

[0059] Of course, in other embodiments, the support member 200 and the component to be installed 300 can also be other components. For example, the support member 200 can be a lamp holder and the component to be installed 300 can be a lamp; or the support member 200 can be a screen bracket and the component to be installed 300 can be a screen; no specific limitation is made here.

[0060] The positioning device 100 provided in this application embodiment pivotally connects the first main body 11 and the second main body 12 together, and detachably connects the first free end 111 and the second free end 121. When installing the component 300, the first free end 111 and the second free end 121 of the positioning component 10 can be separated first to open the positioning space 13. Then, the support 200 is placed into the positioning space 13, and the first free end 111 and the second free end 121 are reconnected to close the positioning space 13, thus completing the positioning operation between the positioning component 10 and the support 200. The limiting component 20 is then connected to the component 300 to limit the relative position between the component 300 and the positioning component 10, thereby limiting the installation position between the component 300 and the support 200. This effectively improves the situation where the installation position of the component 300 relative to the support 200 is prone to offset, and effectively improves the installation stability of the component 300.

[0061] Please refer to some embodiments of this application as well. Figures 3 to 7 The positioning device 100 also includes a pressing assembly 30, which includes a plurality of pressing members 31 disposed on the positioning assembly 10. The plurality of pressing members 31 are disposed around the positioning space 13 and can extend into or out of the positioning space 13 so that the plurality of pressing members 31 press or release the support member 200.

[0062] The number of clamping parts 31 can be determined according to the actual application needs, specifically 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, or 8.

[0063] In some embodiments, the clamping assembly 30 is coaxially arranged with the positioning space 13. In other words, a plurality of clamping members 31 are evenly distributed around the central axis of the positioning space 13, that is, the distance between the plurality of clamping members 31 and the central axis of the positioning space 13 is equal, and the spacing between each pair of adjacent clamping members 31 is equal along the circumference of the positioning space 13.

[0064] In some embodiments, a roller is provided at one end of the clamping member 31 near the support member 200. When the positioning assembly 10 and the support member 200 are in a positioned state, the roller rotates as the positioning assembly 10 and the support member 200 move relative to each other, thereby reducing wear caused by friction between the clamping member 31 and the support member 200. As an example, the rotation axis of the roller can be parallel to the central axis of the support member 200, allowing the roller to rotate as the positioning assembly 10 and the support member 200 rotate around the central axis of the support member 200, thus reducing wear caused by friction between the clamping member 31 and the support member 200. As an example, the rotation axis of the roller can be perpendicular to the central axis of the support member 200, allowing the roller to rotate as the positioning assembly 10 and the support member 200 move relative to each other along the central axis of the support member 200, thereby reducing wear caused by friction between the clamping member 31 and the support member 200.

[0065] By adopting the above technical solution, not only can the positioning component 10 adapt to the outer diameter of the support 200 to match the support 200, but the positioning component 10 and the support 200 can also fit together more tightly, improving the positioning accuracy between the positioning component 10 and the support 200. This more effectively improves the situation where the installation position of the component to be installed 300 is prone to offset relative to the support 200, and further improves the installation stability of the component to be installed 300.

[0066] Please refer to some embodiments of this application as well. Figures 3 to 5The first body 11 includes a first ring segment 112 and a second ring segment 113, and the second body 12 includes a third ring segment 122 and a fourth ring segment 123. The first ring segment 112 and the third ring segment 122 are joined to form a first ring body 14, and the second ring segment 113 and the fourth ring segment 123 are joined to form a second ring body 15. The first ring body 14 has a first sub-positioning space 141, and the second ring body 15 has a second sub-positioning space 151. The first sub-positioning space 141 and the second sub-positioning space 151 are connected to form a positioning space 13. The first ring body 14 and the second ring body 15 are coaxially arranged and rotatably connected. A plurality of clamping members 31 are rotatably connected to the positioning assembly 10. The positioning device 100 also includes a toggle structure 40, which is used to drive the plurality of clamping members 31 to rotate when the first ring body 14 and the second ring body 15 rotate relative to each other, so that the plurality of clamping members 31 extend into or leave the positioning space 13.

[0067] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 5 The first ring segment 112 has a first sub-free end 1121 and a first sub-hinged end 1123, which are respectively located at opposite ends of the first ring segment 112. The second ring segment 113 has a second sub-free end 1131 and a second sub-hinged end 1133, which are respectively located at opposite ends of the second ring segment 113. The first sub-free end 1121 and the second sub-free end 1131 cooperate to form a first free end 111, and the first sub-hinged end 1123 and the second sub-hinged end 1133 cooperate to form a first hinged end 114. The third ring segment 122 has a third sub-free end 1221 and a third sub-hinged end 1222, which are respectively located at opposite ends of the third ring segment 122. The fourth ring segment 123 has a fourth sub-free end 1231 and a fourth sub-hinged end 1232, which are respectively located at opposite ends of the fourth ring segment 123. The third sub-free end 1221 and the fourth sub-free end 1231 cooperate to form a second free end 121, and the third sub-hinged end 1222 and the fourth sub-hinged end 1232 cooperate to form a second hinged end 124. The first sub-hinged end 1123 is hinged to the third sub-hinged end 1222 and the first sub-free end 1121 is detachably connected to the third sub-free end 1221 to form a first ring body 14. The second sub-hinged end 1133 is hinged to the fourth sub-hinged end 1232 and the second sub-free end 1131 is detachably connected to the fourth sub-free end 1231 to form a second ring body 15.

[0068] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 5The first ring body 14 has a rotating seat 142 protruding from one end face. The rotating seat 142 is arranged around the first sub-positioning space 141. The second ring body 15 is sleeved with the rotating seat 142. The second ring body 15 can be sleeved on the outer periphery of the rotating seat 142, or the rotating seat 142 can be sleeved on the outer periphery of the second ring body 15, so that the first ring body 14 and the second ring body 15 can rotate relative to each other. As an example, the rotating seat 142 is provided with multiple rotating shafts 143, and multiple clamping members 31 are connected to the multiple rotating shafts 143 in a one-to-one correspondence, so that each clamping member 31 can rotate around the corresponding rotating shaft 143.

[0069] The actuating structure 40 is used to drive multiple clamping members 31 into or out of the positioning space 13 when the first ring 14 and the second ring 15 rotate relative to each other. Understandably, a portion of the actuating structure 40 is disposed on the first ring 14, and another portion is disposed on the second ring 15. Either the portion of the actuating structure 40 on the first ring 14 cooperates with the clamping members 31 to drive multiple clamping members 31 into or out of the positioning space 13 when the first ring 14 and the second ring 15 rotate relative to each other, or the portion of the actuating structure 40 on the second ring 15 cooperates with the clamping members 31 to drive multiple clamping members 31 into or out of the positioning space 13 when the first ring 14 and the second ring 15 rotate relative to each other.

[0070] By adopting the above technical solution, during the coaxial rotation of the first ring 14 and the second ring 15, the multiple pressing parts 31 can be driven to extend into or leave the positioning space 13 by the actuating structure 40. The structure is simple and the operation is convenient.

[0071] In some embodiments of this application, please refer to Figure 5 The toggle structure 40 includes multiple guide grooves 311 and multiple levers 18, with each lever 18 correspondingly inserted into one of the multiple guide grooves 311.

[0072] In some embodiments, multiple levers 18 are connected to the positioning assembly 10, and multiple guide grooves 311 are correspondingly formed on multiple clamping members 31.

[0073] In other embodiments, multiple guide grooves 311 are formed on the positioning assembly 10, and multiple levers 18 are connected to multiple clamping members 31 in a corresponding manner.

[0074] Understandably, the lever 18 is inserted into the guide groove 311 and moves relative to the clamping member 31 along the length of the guide groove 311, thereby causing the clamping member 31 to rotate, so that the clamping member 31 can extend into or leave the positioning space 13. The guide groove 311 can be a straight line or an arc.

[0075] In some embodiments, the clamping member 31 includes a first clamping section and a second clamping section, one end of the first clamping section and one end of the second clamping section are connected to each other, the clamping member 31 is rotatably connected to the first ring body 14 at the connection between the first clamping section and the second clamping section, the end of the second clamping section away from the first clamping section is used to press against the support member 200, the guide groove 311 is formed on the first clamping section, and the lever 18 is connected to the second ring body 15. The first clamping section and the second clamping section can be arranged at an angle, for example, the first clamping section and the second clamping section are arranged at right angles to each other, or the first clamping section and the second clamping section can be arranged in a straight line.

[0076] By adopting the above technical solution, during the coaxial rotation of the first ring 14 and the second ring 15, the lever 18 can move relative to the clamping member 31 along the guide groove 311 to drive the clamping member 31 to extend into or leave the positioning space 13. This not only has a simple structure but also high reliability.

[0077] Of course, in other embodiments, the toggle structure 40 can also be other structures, such as a cam structure, a gear structure, etc., which are not specifically limited here.

[0078] Please refer to some embodiments of this application as well. Figures 3 to 5 The positioning device 100 also includes a positioning pin 50. The first ring segment 112 has a first positioning hole 1122 and the second ring segment 113 has a second positioning hole 1132. The positioning pin 50 is used to pass through the first positioning hole 1122 and the second positioning hole 1132.

[0079] Understandably, when the positioning pin 50 passes through the first positioning hole 1122 and the second positioning hole 1132, the first ring segment 112 and the second ring segment 113 can move synchronously. That is, when the first free end 111 and the second free end 121 separate from each other, the first ring segment 112 and the second ring segment 113 move synchronously away from the third ring segment 122 and the fourth ring segment 123. When the first free end 111 and the second free end 121 approach each other, the first ring segment 112 and the second ring segment 113 move synchronously towards the third ring segment 122 and the fourth ring segment 123.

[0080] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 5The first ring segment 112 has a first sub-free end 1121 and a first sub-hinged end 1123, which are respectively located at opposite ends of the first ring segment 112. The second ring segment 113 has a second sub-free end 1131 and a second sub-hinged end 1133, which are respectively located at opposite ends of the second ring segment 113. The third ring segment 122 has a third sub-free end 1221 and a third sub-hinged end 1222, which are respectively located at opposite ends of the third ring segment 122. The fourth ring segment 123 has a fourth sub-free end 1121. 231 and the fourth sub-hinged end 1232, the fourth sub-free end 1231 and the fourth sub-hinged end 1232 are respectively located at opposite ends of the fourth ring segment 123. When the positioning pin 50 passes through the first positioning hole 1122 and the second positioning hole 1132, the first sub-free end 1121 and the second sub-free end 1131 are aligned to form the first free end 111, the first sub-hinged end 1123 and the second sub-hinged end 1133 are aligned to form the first hinge end 114, the third sub-free end 1221 and the fourth sub-free end 1231 are aligned to form the second free end 121, and the third sub-hinged end 1222 and the fourth sub-hinged end 1232 are aligned to form the second hinge end 124.

[0081] By adopting the above technical solution, under the positioning action of the positioning pin 50, the first ring segment 112 and the second ring segment 113 can move synchronously relative to the third ring segment 122 and the fourth ring segment 123, thereby making it easier to open or close the positioning space 13.

[0082] Please refer to some embodiments of this application as well. Figures 1 to 5 The positioning component 10 also includes a first grip 16 and a second grip 17. The first grip 16 is connected to the first ring body 14 and protrudes from the outer periphery of the first ring body 14. The second grip 17 is connected to the second ring body 15 and protrudes from the outer periphery of the second ring body 15.

[0083] Understandably, when it is necessary to rotate the first ring body 14 and the second ring body 15 relative to each other, the first grip 16 and the second grip 17 can be held. When the first grip 16 and the second grip 17 move away from each other, the first ring body 14 and the second ring body 15 rotate relative to each other in one direction. When the first grip 16 and the second grip 17 move closer to each other, the first ring body 14 and the second ring body 15 rotate relative to each other in another direction, so as to drive the multiple clamping members 31 to extend into or leave the positioning space 13.

[0084] By adopting the above technical solution, the first grip 16 and the second grip 17 can be held to drive the first ring body 14 and the second ring body 15 to rotate coaxially, thereby driving multiple clamping parts 31 to extend into or leave the positioning space 13, making the operation convenient.

[0085] Please refer to some embodiments of this application as well. Figures 1 to 5 The positioning device 100 also includes an anti-loosening structure 60, which includes anti-loosening teeth 61, a support member 62, and an elastic member 63.

[0086] In some embodiments, the anti-loosening teeth 61 are disposed on the first ring body 14 and extend circumferentially along the first ring body 14, the support member 62 is rotatably connected to the second grip 17, and the elastic member 63 is connected between one end of the support member 62 and the second grip 17.

[0087] In other embodiments, the anti-loosening teeth 61 are disposed on the second ring body 15 and extend circumferentially along the second ring body 15, the support member 62 is rotatably connected to the first grip 16, and the elastic member 63 is connected between one end of the support member 62 and the first grip 16; the elastic member 63 is used to apply an elastic force to one end of the support member 62 so that the other end of the support member 62 presses against the anti-loosening teeth 61.

[0088] The anti-loosening teeth 61 extend circumferentially along the first ring body 14 or the second ring body 15, that is, the anti-loosening teeth 61 includes multiple protruding teeth, which are arranged sequentially along the circumferential direction of the first ring body 14 or the second ring body 15.

[0089] In some embodiments, the support member 62 has a support end, a force-bearing end, and a connecting portion connected between the support end and the force-bearing end. The support end is used to support the anti-loosening teeth 61, and the force-bearing end is used to connect the elastic member 63 so that the elastic member 63 applies an elastic force to the support member 62. The connecting portion is rotatably connected to the first grip 16 or the second grip 17.

[0090] The elastic member 63 applies an elastic force to the force-bearing end so that the support tip retains the anti-loosening tooth 61. When the first ring body 14 and the second ring body 15 need to rotate relative to each other, a reaction force can be applied to the force-bearing end to overcome the elastic force of the elastic member 63 and cause the support tip to disengage from the anti-loosening tooth 61.

[0091] The elastic element 63 can be, but is not limited to, springs, sheet metal, pneumatic rods, hydraulic rods, etc.

[0092] By adopting the above technical solution, when the first ring body 14 and the second ring body 15 rotate coaxially to press the support member 200 with multiple clamping members 31, one end of the support member 62 can press against the anti-loosening tooth 61 under the elastic action of the elastic member 63, so as to restrict the relative rotation of the first ring body 14 and the second ring body 15, so that the multiple clamping members 31 and the support member 200 maintain a tight fit, and the reliability is high.

[0093] Please refer to some embodiments of this application as well. Figures 1 to 3The limiting component 20 includes a first limiting member 21 and a second limiting member 22. The first limiting member 21 is installed on the first main body 11, and the second limiting member 22 is installed on the second main body 12. The first limiting member 21 and the second limiting member 22 cooperate with each other to limit the relative position of the part to be installed 300 and the positioning component 10.

[0094] Understandably, the first limiting member 21 is installed on the first main body 11, and the second limiting member 22 is installed on the second main body 12. That is, when the first free end 111 and the second free end 121 are separated from each other, the first limiting member 21 and the second limiting member 22 are also separated from each other. When the first free end 111 and the second free end 121 are connected to each other, the first limiting member 21 and the second limiting member 22 are also connected to each other.

[0095] In some embodiments, the first limiting member 21 and the second limiting member 22 are mated to form an annular structure, which is sleeved on the outer periphery of the component to be installed 300 to limit the position of the component to be installed 300. The shape of the annular structure can be adapted to the shape of the component to be installed 300. For example, both the shape of the annular structure and the shape of the component to be installed 300 are circular; or both the shape of the annular structure and the shape of the component to be installed 300 are polygonal; no specific limitation is made here.

[0096] By adopting the above technical solution, after the support member 200 is placed into the positioning space 13 and the positioning space 13 is closed, the first limiting member 21 and the second limiting member 22 can cooperate to clamp the part to be installed 300, which effectively improves the positioning accuracy of the limiting component 20 and the part to be installed 300, thereby more effectively improving the situation that the installation position of the part to be installed 300 relative to the support member 200 is prone to deviation, and further improving the installation stability of the part to be installed 300.

[0097] Please refer to some embodiments of this application as well. Figures 1 to 5 The positioning device 100 also includes a snap-fit ​​assembly 70, which is used to snap-fit ​​the first free end 111 and the second free end 121.

[0098] In some embodiments, the snap-fit ​​assembly 70 includes a snap-fit ​​member and a snap-fit ​​portion. The snap-fit ​​member is movably connected to one of the first free end 111 and the second free end 121, and the snap-fit ​​portion is fixedly connected to the other of the first free end 111 and the second free end 121. As an example, one end of the snap-fit ​​member is rotatably connected to one of the first free end 111 and the second free end 121, and the snap-fit ​​portion is fixedly connected to the other of the first free end 111 and the second free end 121. The other end of the snap-fit ​​member is used to snap-fit ​​the snap-fit ​​portion. The snap-fit ​​member can be rotated to disengage from the snap-fit ​​portion, thereby separating the first free end 111 and the second free end 121 from each other. When it is necessary to reconnect the first free end 111 and the second free end 121, the snap-fit ​​member can be rotated in the opposite direction to re-engage with the snap-fit ​​portion, thereby reconnecting and fixing the first free end 111 and the second free end 121.

[0099] By adopting the above technical solution, it is not only easy to separate the first free end 111 and the second free end 121 to open the positioning space 13, but also, when the positioning space 13 is in the closed state, the latching assembly 70 can effectively restrict the relative position of the first free end 111 and the second free end 121, thereby effectively reducing the risk of the first free end 111 detaching from the second free end 121, and the reliability is high.

[0100] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit this application. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
