Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bag manufacturing technology, and in particular to a retractable hook structure. Background Technology
[0002] When traveling, consumers often carry both rolling suitcases and small bags such as handbags for carrying personal belongings. However, during trips, waiting in queues is common, and carrying these handbags for extended periods can be burdensome. To address this, some rolling suitcases on the market now feature hooks, allowing consumers to temporarily hang their handbags and other small bags to lighten the load. However, most rolling suitcases currently on the market have fixed hooks that protrude from the surface. This design not only affects the overall aesthetics of the suitcase but also makes it more susceptible to damage during transport. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a retractable hook structure. This hook structure is simple and reliable. When applied to a suitcase, it can effectively prevent bumps and knocks and also improve the overall aesthetics of the suitcase.
[0004] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: a retractable hook structure, including a hook body, an inner cover, and a damping base. The two ends of the hook body are a hook end and a connecting end, respectively. The damping base is provided with an elastic groove. The connecting end of the hook body is connected to the elastic groove. The damping base is fixedly connected to the inner cover, and the inner cover is fixedly connected to the shell. When the hook body is in the retracted state, the hook end is embedded in the damping base. When the hook body is in the use state, the hook end is located on the outside of the shell. The hook body, mounted on the damping base, can swing relative to the damping base to form a retracted or use state. The damping base provides the mounting base for the hook body, and the elastic groove allows the hook body to be in both vertically retracted and horizontally open states. The inner cover can cover the hook body and the damping base, creating a small, independent space inside the shell to prevent external pressure from affecting the function and use of the hook body.
[0005] The inner cover and damping base are installed on the inside of the box shell. When the hook body is in the storage state, the hook body is flush with the box shell, so that the entire hook structure and the box shell form a whole, which has a better aesthetics. At the same time, it also avoids the hook protruding from the surface of the box shell, which is prone to bumps and damage.
[0006] The hook body is shaped like a "7", with the opening of the "7" facing the inside of the box. The upper end of the hook body is the hook end, and the lower end of the hook body is the connecting end. The connecting end is equipped with a rotating shaft, and the rotating shaft is also equipped with an outward protruding locking point. When the hook body is rotated to a vertical or horizontal state, the locking point can be locked with the corresponding groove in the elastic groove (i.e., the upper groove and the lower groove below) to form a stable fixed structure.
[0007] The hook end also extends upwards with a toggle block, which allows the consumer to quickly move the hook body when using the hook structure.
[0008] The damping base has an elastic slot containing two grooves arranged parallel to each other, designated as an upper and lower groove. When the hook body is in the retracted state, the pivot at the connecting end is embedded in the lower groove; when the hook body is in use, the pivot at the connecting end is embedded in the upper groove. In this structure, due to the elasticity of the slot, when the consumer moves the hook body, the pivot at the connecting end can switch between the upper and lower grooves. When the pivot rotates to be embedded in the upper groove, the hook body is in a horizontal state and can be used; when the pivot rotates to be embedded in the lower groove, the hook body is in a resin state and can be retracted.
[0009] The inner cover has side plates on both sides, and recessed holes are provided on the side plates. The two side plates cover the two ends of the elastic slot, and the two ends of the rotating shaft of the hook body connection end extend into the recessed holes.
[0010] The upper end of the damping base is also provided with a groove. When the hook body is in the retracted state, the hook end is embedded in the groove. The groove provides storage space for the hook body, effectively preventing the hook body from being exposed on the surface of the case, thus improving the aesthetics of the suitcase and preventing the hook body from being easily damaged.
[0011] The inner cover is provided with a through hole, and the groove on the damping base is embedded in the through hole, so that the damping base is installed tightly against the inner cover, and its structure is stable and reliable.
[0012] The damping base has a first fixed connection part at the upper and lower ends of the elastic slot, and a second fixed connection part is provided on the inner cover at the corresponding position of the first fixed connection part. The first fixed connection part and the second fixed connection part are locked together by rivets or screws; the inner cover covers the damping base.
[0013] The inner cover is provided with a third fixed connection part at both the upper and lower ends, and each third fixed connection part is locked and fixed to the shell by rivets or screws.
[0014] The hook body, inner cover, and damping base are all integrally formed structures, and the damping base is made of elastic material.
[0015] When the aforementioned retractable hook structure is applied to a rolling suitcase, it can preferably be set on the side of the suitcase. The principle is as follows: the hook body is installed on the damping base and can swing relative to the damping base, thereby forming a vertical storage state or a horizontal use state. In the damping base, the elasticity of the elastic groove can make the hook body be in both vertical storage and horizontal open states. The inner cover can cover the hook body and the damping base, so that the area where the hook body and the damping base are located forms a small independent space inside the case shell, avoiding external pressure that would affect the function and use of the hook body. When a consumer needs to use the hook structure, they can push the hook body outwards. The hook body slowly opens around its lower pivot. At this time, the elastic groove on the damping base deforms. When the hook body is pushed to a horizontal position, the locking point at the connecting end pivot engages with the upper groove in the elastic groove. The consumer can hang items such as handbags on the hook body. Since the handbags and other items are downward due to gravity, the hook body can be kept stable in a horizontal position. When the hook structure needs to be stored, simply remove the handbags or other items hanging on the hook body, and then push the hook end of the hook body upwards. The hook body slowly rotates around its lower pivot. At this time, the elastic groove on the damping base deforms. When the hook body is pushed to a vertical position, the locking point at the connecting end pivot engages with the lower groove in the elastic groove, and the hook structure is stored.
[0016] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has the following advantages:
[0017] The retractable hook structure is simple in principle and stable and reliable. When applied to rolling suitcases, the retractable hook structure can effectively prevent bumps and knocks, and also improve the overall aesthetics of the rolling suitcase. This reduces the burden on consumers and improves their travel quality.
[0018] This retractable hook design utilizes a flexible slot in the damping base to easily switch between a retracted and usable state. This is convenient, structurally stable, and leverages the principle of gravity to ensure stable hanging. The recessed area at the top of the damping base cleverly stores the hook, saving space. Furthermore, an inner cover encloses both the hook and the damping base, creating a small, independent space within the casing to prevent external pressure from affecting their function and usability.
[0019] The retractable hook structure can be installed on the side, front, or back of the suitcase, depending on its design requirements, making it flexible and convenient to use. Attached Figure Description

[0034] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the embodiments, but the implementation of the present invention is not limited thereto.
[0035] Example
[0036] This embodiment presents a retractable hook structure, such as... Figure 7 or Figure 8 As shown, it includes a hook body 1, an inner cover 2, and a damping base 3. The two ends of the hook body are a hook end 1-1 and a connecting end 1-2, respectively. The damping base is provided with an elastic groove 3-1, as shown. Figure 3 or Figure 6 As shown, the connecting end of the hook body is connected to the elastic slot, the damping base is fixedly connected to the inner cover, and the inner cover is fixedly connected to the housing 4; when the hook body is in the storage state, the hook end is embedded in the damping base (as shown). Figure 3 (As shown); When the hook body is in use, the hook end is located on the outside of the box (as shown). Figure 6 (As shown). The hook body is mounted on a damping base and can swing relative to the base to achieve either a folded or usable state. The damping base provides the mounting foundation for the hook body, and the elasticity of the retaining groove allows the hook body to be in either a vertically folded or horizontally open state. The inner cover conceals both the hook body and the damping base, creating a small, independent space within the casing to prevent external pressure from affecting the hook's function and usability. Figure 7 As shown, the inner cover and damping base are installed on the inside of the box shell. When the hook body is in the storage state, the hook body is flush with the box shell, so that the entire hook structure and the box shell form a whole, which has a better aesthetics. At the same time, it also avoids the hook protruding from the surface of the box shell, which is prone to bumps and damage.
[0037] like Figure 8 As shown, the hook body is shaped like a "7", with the opening of the "7" facing the inside of the casing. The upper end of the hook body is the hook end, and the lower end is the connecting end. The connecting end has a rotating shaft 1-3, and the rotating shaft also has an outwardly protruding locking point. When the hook body rotates to a vertical or horizontal position, the locking point can lock with the corresponding groove in the elastic groove (i.e., the upper groove and lower groove below) to form a stable fixing structure. The hook end also extends upward with a toggle block 1-5. When the consumer uses the hook structure, the hook body can be quickly moved by the toggle block. On the damping base, the elastic groove contains two grooves, which are arranged vertically and parallel to each other, namely the upper groove 3-2 and the lower groove 3-3. When the hook body is in the storage state, the rotating shaft of the connecting end is embedded in the lower groove, and the locking point is locked in the lower groove (e.g., Figure 3 (As shown); When the hook body is in use, the pivot at the connecting end is embedded in the upper groove, and the locking point is secured within the upper groove (as shown). Figure 6(As shown). In this structure, due to the elasticity of the slot, when the consumer moves the hook body, the pivot at the connecting end of the hook body can switch between the upper and lower slots. When the pivot rotates to be embedded in the upper slot, the hook body is in a horizontal state and can be used; when the pivot rotates to be embedded in the lower slot, the hook body is in a resin state and can be stored. The inner cover has side plates 2-1 on both sides, with recessed holes 2-2 on each side plate. The two side plates cover the two ends of the elastic slot, and the two ends of the pivot at the connecting end of the hook body extend into the recessed holes.
[0038] The upper end of the damping base is also provided with a groove 3-4. When the hook body is in the stored state, the hook end is inserted into the groove. The groove provides storage space for the hook body, effectively preventing the hook body from being exposed on the surface of the case, thus improving the aesthetics of the suitcase and preventing the hook body from being easily damaged. The inner cover is provided with through holes 2-3. The groove on the damping base is inserted into the through holes, allowing the damping base to be installed tightly against the inner cover, ensuring a stable and reliable structure.
[0039] On the damping base, a first fixing connection part 3-5 is provided at the upper and lower ends of the elastic slot, and a second fixing connection part 2-4 is provided on the inner cover at the corresponding position of the first fixing connection part. The first fixing connection part and the second fixing connection part are locked together by rivets or screws (rivets 5 are used in this embodiment); the inner cover covers the damping base. A third fixing connection part 2-5 is provided at the upper and lower ends of the inner cover, and each third fixing connection part is locked together with the housing by rivets or screws (rivets 5 are used in this embodiment).
[0040] The hook body, inner cover, and damping base are all integrally molded structures, and the damping base is made of elastic material.
[0041] When the aforementioned retractable hook structure is applied to a rolling suitcase, it is preferably positioned on the side of the suitcase. The principle is that the hook body is mounted on a damping base and can swing relative to the damping base, thus achieving a vertical retractable position (e.g., ...). Figures 1 to 3 (as shown) or the level of use (e.g.) Figures 4 to 6 As shown), the damping base utilizes the elasticity of the elastic groove to allow the hook body to be in two states: vertically retracted and horizontally open. The inner cover can cover both the hook body and the damping base, creating a small, independent space within the casing to prevent external pressure from affecting the hook's function and use. When the consumer needs to use the hook structure, the hook body can be pushed outwards, slowly opening around its lower pivot. At this time, the elastic groove on the damping base deforms. When the hook body is pushed to a horizontal position, the locking point at the connecting end pivot engages with the upper groove in the elastic groove (as shown). Figure 6As shown), consumers can hang handbags and other items on the hook body. Because the handbags and other items hang downwards due to gravity, the hook body remains stably horizontal. When it's time to store the hook, simply remove the handbags or other items hanging on the hook body, then pull the hook end upwards. The hook body slowly rotates around its lower pivot. At this time, the elastic groove on the damping base deforms. When the hook body is pulled to a vertical position, the locking point at the connecting end pivot engages with the lower groove in the elastic groove (as shown). Figure 3 As shown, the hook structure completes the storage.
[0042] As described above, the present invention can be well implemented. The above embodiments are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of implementation of the present invention. That is, all equivalent changes and modifications made in accordance with the content of the present invention are covered by the scope of protection claimed by the claims of the present invention.
