Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of hooks, and more particularly to a concealed coat and hat hook. Background Technology
[0002] In modern homes and public spaces, coat hooks are a common and practical item used to hang clothes, hats, bags, and other items. However, traditional coat hooks have many limitations.
[0003] Common fixed coat hooks, when not in use, protrude awkwardly from walls or other installation areas, disrupting the overall aesthetics and harmony of the space and posing a significant risk of bumps and knocks, especially in high-traffic areas or areas where children play. Even hooks with folding designs still have some thick components exposed when folded, making it impossible to achieve a truly flush finish with the installation surface and failing to meet people's high demands for a clean and aesthetically pleasing space.
[0004] Therefore, a hidden modular design is proposed, which can be perfectly flush with the surface of the installation area after installation, so as not to affect the overall visual effect of the space and effectively avoid bumps and knocks. Utility Model Content
[0005] This invention addresses the shortcomings of existing technologies by employing a concealed design. When not in use, the hook body retracts into the hook base, which then embeds into a concealed groove on the surface of the installation area, flush with the base surface. This creates a clean and tidy look, complementing various home décor styles and enhancing aesthetics and harmony. Furthermore, the completely concealed design eliminates the risk of bumps and knocks caused by protruding traditional hooks, ensuring safety, especially in densely populated areas and children's play areas.
[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model solves the problem of traditional coat hooks being prone to bumping and knocking when not in use by adopting the following technical solution, and achieves a hidden modular design.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0008] A concealed coat hook, comprising:
[0009] The mounting area has a hidden groove on its surface;
[0010] A hook base is detachably embedded in the hidden groove. The hook base is movably connected to a retractable hook body through a slide rail mechanism. Several annular suspension grooves are evenly distributed on the outer surface of the hook body, and an interval suspension part is formed between adjacent annular suspension grooves.
[0011] Preferably, the hook base has preset holes around its perimeter, and is fixedly connected to the hidden groove by circumferentially distributed fastening screws.
[0012] Preferably, the mating surface between the hook base and the hidden groove is provided with a stabilizing protrusion.
[0013] Preferably, the slide rail mechanism includes a slider disposed on the outer wall of the hook body and a corresponding slide groove opened on the inner wall of the hook base, wherein the slider is slidably connected to the inside of the slide groove.
[0014] Preferably, the hook body has a hollow cylindrical structure, and its interior is provided with an extended inner rod with external threads.
[0015] Preferably, a rotating head is connected inside the extended inner rod.
[0016] Preferably, a gap layer filled with adhesive is provided between the hook base and the hidden groove.
[0017] Preferably, the annular suspension groove is fitted with an anti-slip sleeve, and the anti-slip sleeve is made of rubber.
[0018] Preferably, the cross-section of the annular suspension groove is arc-shaped.
[0019] Preferably, the hook body has a first magnetic surface at its end, and the hook base has a second magnetic surface at a corresponding position on its inner wall.
[0020] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0021] The concealed coat hook provided in this application features a hidden design. When not in use, the hook body retracts into the hook base, which then embeds into a concealed groove on the surface of the installation area, flush with the base surface. This creates a clean and tidy look, complementing various home décor styles and enhancing aesthetics and harmony. Furthermore, the completely concealed nature eliminates the risk of bumps and knocks associated with protruding traditional hooks, ensuring safety, especially in crowded areas and areas where children play.
[0022] The hook body of this application can be easily pulled out from the hook base via a smooth sliding mechanism, making it simple to operate and ready to use immediately. The annular hanging groove and anti-slip sleeve design increase friction with the hung items, preventing them from slipping. The rotatable extension inner rod allows for adjustment of the hanging length and angle according to actual needs, meeting diverse hanging requirements and enhancing the user experience.
[0023] The hook base of this application connects to the installation area via pre-drilled holes and fastening screws or glue, offering flexible installation options. The appropriate method can be selected based on the material of the installation area, and the installation process is simple. The modular design allows each component to operate relatively independently. When a component is damaged, such as wear on the anti-slip sleeve or deformation of the hook body, the damaged component can be disassembled and replaced individually without replacing the entire hook, reducing maintenance costs and difficulty, and extending product lifespan.
[0024] This product can be installed on various materials, including wooden walls, metal cabinets, and plastic decorative panels, using either adhesive or screw fixing. The adjustable length of the inner extension rod accommodates items of different lengths, ensuring the product functions effectively in diverse scenarios. Attached Figure Description

Example
[0039] Please see Figure 1-8 A concealed coat hook includes: an installation area 1, the surface of which is provided with a concealed groove 101;
[0040] A hook base 2 is detachably embedded in a hidden groove 101. The hook base 2 is movably connected to a retractable hook body 3 through a slide rail mechanism. Several annular suspension grooves 301 are evenly distributed on the outer surface of the hook body 3, and an interval suspension part is formed between adjacent annular suspension grooves 301.
[0041] The concealed coat hook of this application is mainly composed of components such as the installation area 1, the concealed groove 101, the hook base 2, and the hook body 3. The following is a detailed description of its structure and working principle.
[0042] I. Detailed Structure and Connection Methods of Each Component
[0043] Installation area 1: Using processing equipment, a hidden groove 101 is precisely machined on the surface of installation area 1 to match the overall shape and size of the hook base 2, so that the hook base 2 can be flush with the surface of installation area 1 after being embedded.
[0044] Hook base 2: Made of high-strength and durable materials, such as aluminum alloy or high-quality engineering plastics. Pre-drilled holes 202 are precisely machined around the hook base 2 for subsequent connection with the hidden groove 101. A stable raised layer 204 made of rubber is glued or integrally molded onto the mating surface of the hook base 2 and the hidden groove 101. The rubber material has good elasticity and friction, enhancing connection stability. Simultaneously, a sliding groove 201 is formed at a corresponding position on the inner wall of the hook base 2. The size and shape of the sliding groove 201 must precisely match the slider 303 on the hook body 3.
[0045] Hook body 3: The hook body 3 is designed as a hollow cylindrical structure, using lightweight yet strong materials such as stainless steel or reinforced plastic. Annular hanging grooves 301 are evenly spaced on its outer surface, and anti-slip sleeves 302 made of rubber are embedded within these grooves. The anti-slip sleeves 302 are fixed in the annular hanging grooves 301 by an interference fit, facilitating disassembly and replacement. A slider 303 is installed at a suitable position on the outer wall of the hook body 3. The slider 303 can be made of the same or compatible material as the hook body 3 and is fixed by welding, bolting, or integral molding. A first magnetic attraction surface 5 made of ferrite or neodymium iron boron magnetic materials is installed at the end of the hook body 3. These materials have strong magnetism and are not easily demagnetized.
[0046] Extending inner rod 4 and rotating head 401: The extending inner rod 4 is made with external threads. The material can be metal such as stainless steel to ensure its strength and the wear resistance of the threads. The rotating head 401 is installed inside the extending inner rod 4. The rotating head 401 can be made of plastic or metal, and its surface can be designed with anti-slip textures for easy manual rotation by the operator. The extending inner rod 4 and the hook body 3 are connected by internal threads on the inner wall and external threads on the extending inner rod 4.
[0047] Choose the appropriate connection method based on the material of the mounting area 1. If the material of the mounting area 1 is suitable for adhesive bonding, first fill the gap between the hook base 2 and the hidden groove 101 with a special strong adhesive, then slowly insert the hook base 2 into the hidden groove 101, ensuring accurate positioning, and wait for the adhesive to cure. If using the fastening screw 203 for connection, after inserting the hook base 2 into the hidden groove 101, align the preset hole 202 with the corresponding hole on the hidden groove 101, then screw in the fastening screw 203 to firmly fix the hook base 2 in the hidden groove 101. During the tightening of the screw, the stabilizing protrusion 204 will deform due to compression, further enhancing the stability of the connection.
[0048] The hook body 3 with slider 303 is connected to the hook base 2 through the slide groove 201 to ensure that slider 303 can slide smoothly in the slide groove 201.
[0049] The extension inner rod 4 is screwed into the hollow interior of the hook body 3, and the screwing depth of the extension inner rod 4 is adjusted by rotating the head 401 to meet different usage length requirements.
[0050] II. Working Principle
[0051] Concealed Storage: The concealed groove 101 on installation area 1 is precisely machined to fit the shape of the hook base 2, with their dimensions and shapes perfectly matched. During installation, the hook base 2 can be precisely embedded into the concealed groove 101, ensuring that the entire device is perfectly flush with the surface of installation area 1 when the hook is not in use. Whether on a flat wall, cabinet surface, or other areas of installation area 1, there will be no abrupt protrusions, thus maintaining the overall harmony and aesthetics of the space and effectively avoiding the risk of accidental collisions with people or objects.
[0052] The first magnetic surface 5 at the end of the hook body 3 and the corresponding second magnetic surface 501 on the inner wall of the hook base 2 are typically made of magnetic materials such as ferrite or neodymium iron boron. These materials possess strong magnetism, and when the hook body 3 retracts into the hook base 2, the two magnetic surfaces approach each other, generating a magnetic force. This magnetic force provides a stable holding force for the hook body 3, preventing it from sliding out of the hook base 2 without external interference. For example, even under slight vibration or contact, the magnetic force of the magnetic surfaces ensures that the hook body 3 is securely housed within the base, remaining hidden at all times.
[0053] The mating surface between the hook base 2 and the concealed groove 101 is provided with a stabilizing protrusion 204 made of rubber. Rubber has good elasticity and friction; when the hook base 2 is embedded into the concealed groove 101 and fixed with the fastening screw 203, the stabilizing protrusion 204 is compressed and deformed, filling the tiny gaps in the mating surface and further enhancing the connection stability between the two. Furthermore, when using a connection method that fills the gap layer with adhesive, the adhesive, after curing, forms a strong bond, tightly binding the hook base 2 and the concealed groove 101 together, preventing the hook base 2 from loosening or shifting during use, thus ensuring the reliability of the entire hook in its concealed state.
[0054] In hanging mode: When the coat hook is needed, the user applies an outward pulling force to the hook body 3. At this time, due to the precise machining of the slider 303 and the groove 201, the fit between them is relatively smooth, and the friction is relatively small. The magnetic force of the magnetic surface can be controlled by selecting a material with appropriate magnetic strength according to actual needs. Under normal circumstances, normal human power can easily overcome these two resistances, allowing the hook body 3 to be pulled out from the hook base 2 along the groove 201. As the hook body 3 is pulled out, the slider 303 slides in the same direction within the groove 201. When the slider 303 slides to the front end of the groove 201, the hook body 3 is fully extended, ready for hanging items.
[0055] The annular hanging groove 301 on the outer surface of the hook body 3 incorporates multiple measures to ensure hanging stability. First, the cross-section of the annular hanging groove 301 is arc-shaped, conforming to the shape of common clothes hanger hooks. This better accommodates and secures the hook, making clothing and other items more stable and less prone to swaying. Second, a rubber anti-slip sleeve 302 is embedded within the annular hanging groove 301. Rubber has excellent anti-slip properties; when the clothes hanger hook is suspended in the annular hanging groove 301, a large frictional force is generated between the anti-slip sleeve 302 and the hook, effectively preventing items from slipping due to gravity. Furthermore, the spaced hanging portions formed between adjacent annular hanging grooves 301 maintain a certain distance between multiple items when hanging, preventing them from being squeezed together and shifting or falling.
[0056] The hook body 3 has a hollow cylindrical structure with an internally threaded extension rod 4, which is connected by the threads. When a longer item needs to be hung, and the hook body 3 is not long enough, the user can adjust the length by rotating the rotating head 401 inside the extension rod 4. The anti-slip textured surface of the rotating head 401 makes it easy for the user to rotate it by hand. Due to the threaded connection, as the rotating head 401 rotates, the extension rod 4 unscrews out of the hook body 3, thereby increasing the overall length of the hook. This adjustable design greatly improves the applicability of the coat hook and can meet the hanging needs of items of different lengths.
[0057] Convenience of component replacement: During long-term use, some components may need to be replaced due to wear or damage. For example, the anti-slip sleeve 302 may wear down due to frequent friction with the clothes hanger hook, resulting in a decrease in its anti-slip performance. In this case, since the anti-slip sleeve 302 is installed in the annular hanging groove 301 in a sleeve-like manner, and the connection between the two is relatively loose, such as an interference fit or a slight locking structure, the user can easily remove the old anti-slip sleeve 302 and then insert the new anti-slip sleeve 302 into the annular hanging groove 301 to complete the replacement operation, which is simple and quick.
[0058] If the hook body 3, hook base 2, or other critical components suffer severe damage and require overall repair or replacement, disassembly can be performed according to the installation method. If the connection is made using fastening screws 203, simply unscrew the screws with the appropriate tools to remove the hook base 2 from the hidden slot 101. If it is an adhesive connection, appropriate methods must be used to remove the adhesive force before carefully removing the hook base 2. After removing the hook base 2, the internal components can be thoroughly inspected, repaired, or replaced. The modular design makes the entire maintenance process more efficient, reducing repair costs and difficulty.
[0059] The threaded connection between the extension inner rod 4 and the hook body 3 not only facilitates length adjustment during use but also allows the extension inner rod 4 to be sold and assembled separately. During production and sales, extension inner rods 4 of different lengths can be provided to meet various needs, allowing users to select the appropriate extension inner rod 4 for installation. During maintenance, if the extension inner rod 4 is damaged, it can be unscrewed from the hook body 3 for replacement without replacing the entire hook body 3, further improving the product's flexibility and economy.
