Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of translation equipment technology, and more specifically, it relates to a snap-fit mechanism for a small translation device. Background Technology
[0002] Driven by globalization, the demand for cross-language communication has exploded. Small translation devices, with their portability and instant translation capabilities, have become indispensable tools for travel enthusiasts, business people, and even everyday language learners.
[0003] In business negotiations, communication efficiency directly impacts the cooperation process. If a situation arises where it is necessary to quickly display the content of a translation device or conduct real-time translation communication with a client, the inability to quickly remove the device from the lanyard may lead to interruptions in the conversation, delays in the transmission of important information, and potential obstacles to cooperation, greatly reducing the user experience. Moreover, most existing small translation devices focus on improving translation functions and making the design thinner and lighter, but neglect effective protection against drops. Ordinary shell materials and structural designs cannot provide sufficient cushioning and protection when faced with accidental drops.
[0004] No effective solutions have yet been proposed to address the problems in the relevant technologies. Utility Model Content
[0005] In view of the problems in the related technologies, this utility model proposes a snap-fit mechanism for a small translation device to overcome the above-mentioned technical problems existing in the existing related technologies.
[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0007] This utility model relates to a snap-fit mechanism for a small translation device, comprising a protective shell, an equipment placement area inside the protective shell, anti-fall airbags fixedly installed at the four corners of the protective shell, a silicone strip installed on the protective shell at the edge of the equipment placement area, an insertion port on the top of the protective shell, a snap-fit mechanism inside the insertion port, a hanging rope installed on the top of the snap-fit mechanism, and symmetrical snap-fit mechanisms inside the protective shell, two of the snap-fit mechanisms being able to snap into the snap-fit mechanism, and elastic pressing mechanisms installed at the ends of the two snap-fit mechanisms that are far apart from each other, and the two elastic pressing mechanisms being symmetrically installed on the protective shell.
[0008] Furthermore, a charging hole is provided on the protective shell and on one side of the device placement area, a plurality of sound holes are provided on the protective shell, a plurality of anti-slip strips are fixedly installed on the protective shell, and sliding grooves are symmetrically provided inside the protective shell.
[0009] Furthermore, the locking mechanism includes a connecting block, the hanging rope is mounted on the connecting block, and an insertion rod is fixedly mounted on one end of the connecting block.
[0010] Furthermore, an insertion block is fixedly installed at the other end of the insertion rod, and the insertion block is arranged in a frustum shape.
[0011] Furthermore, both of the latching mechanisms include latching blocks, both of the latching blocks are arranged in a right-angled trapezoidal shape, and the hypotenuses of the two latching blocks are located near the insertion block.
[0012] Furthermore, the two snap-fit blocks are slidably installed inside the protective shell, and each of the two snap-fit blocks is fixedly mounted with a push rod.
[0013] Furthermore, both of the elastic pressing mechanisms include sliding rods, which are slidably mounted on the protective shell. Each of the two sliding rods is fitted with a spring, and a push block is fixedly mounted at one end of each of the two sliding rods. The two push blocks are respectively fixedly mounted to the two push rods.
[0014] Furthermore, one end of the spring is fixedly mounted on the push block and the other end is fixedly mounted on the protective shell, and the push block is slidably mounted in the sliding groove.
[0015] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0016] When the device needs to be removed from the hanging rope, the user only needs to press the two elastic pressing mechanisms symmetrically installed on the protective shell at the same time. When the elastic pressing mechanism is pressed by external force, it will drive the connected locking mechanism, causing the locking points of the two locking mechanisms to move away from each other. Since the two locking mechanisms were originally used to lock and fix the locking mechanism, when they move to both sides, they will release the locking state of the locking mechanism. At this time, the user can easily detach the device and the protective shell from the locking mechanism, achieving the purpose of quickly removing the device.
[0017] When a user needs to place a small translation device into the protective case, the device can be aligned with the placement area. The silicone strip located at the edge of the placement area has good flexibility and elasticity, allowing the device to smoothly enter the placement area. Once the device is fully placed, the silicone strip fits tightly against the edge of the device, limiting its movement and preventing it from wobbling inside the protective case. Anti-drop airbags are fixedly installed at the four corners of the protective case. When the protective case and the device are accidentally dropped, the corners of the protective case usually make contact with the ground first. The air inside the anti-drop airbags is compressed upon impact, absorbing and dispersing most of the impact force, preventing the impact force from being directly transmitted to the device, and effectively reducing the risk of damage due to drops.
[0018] Of course, any product implementing this utility model does not necessarily need to achieve all of the advantages described above at the same time. Attached Figure Description

[0027] The technical solutions of the utility model embodiments will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0028] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "opening", "upper", "lower", "top", "middle", "inner", etc., which indicate orientation or positional relationship, are only for the convenience of describing the utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the components or elements 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 the utility model.
[0029] Please see Figures 1-5 As shown, this utility model is a snap-fit mechanism for a small translation device, including a protective shell 1. The protective shell 1 has a device placement area 9 inside. Anti-fall airbags 2 are fixedly installed at the four corners of the protective shell 1. Silicone strips 3 are installed on the protective shell 1 and at the edge of the device placement area 9. An insertion port 4 is opened at the top of the protective shell 1. A snap-fit mechanism 5 is provided in the insertion port 4. A hanging rope 6 is installed on the top of the snap-fit mechanism 5. Snap-fit mechanisms 7 are symmetrically arranged inside the protective shell 1. Two snap-fit mechanisms 7 can snap-fit the snap-fit mechanism 5. Elastic pressing mechanisms 8 are installed at the ends of the two snap-fit mechanisms 7 that are far apart from each other. The two elastic pressing mechanisms 8 are symmetrically installed on the protective shell 1.
[0030] When a user needs to place a small translation device into the protective case 1, the device can be aligned with the device placement area 9. The silicone strip 3 located at the edge of the device placement area 9 has good flexibility and elasticity, which allows the device to enter the device placement area 9 smoothly. After the device is fully placed, the silicone strip 3 fits tightly against the edge of the device, which plays a limiting role in the translation device and prevents the device from shaking freely inside the protective case 1. Anti-drop airbags 2 are fixedly installed at the four corners of the protective case 1. When the protective case 1 and the device are accidentally dropped, the four corners of the protective case 1 will usually be in contact with the ground first. The air inside the anti-drop airbag 2 will be compressed when it is hit, thereby absorbing and dispersing most of the impact force, avoiding the impact force being directly transmitted to the device, and effectively reducing the risk of damage to the device due to the drop.
[0031] The protective case 1 has an insertion port 4 at its top, and a locking mechanism 5 is installed inside the insertion port 4. A lanyard 6 is installed on the top of the locking mechanism 5, allowing the user to hang the protective case 1 and the translation device around their neck for easy carrying. When the device needs to be removed from the lanyard, the user only needs to press the two elastic pressing mechanisms 8 symmetrically installed on the protective case 1 at the same time. When the elastic pressing mechanism 8 is pressed by external force, it will drive the connected locking mechanism 7, causing the two locking mechanisms 7 to move away from each other. Since the two locking mechanisms 7 originally locked and fixed the locking mechanism 5, when they move to both sides, they will release the locking state of the locking mechanism 5. At this time, the user can easily detach the device and the protective case 1 from the locking mechanism 5, achieving the purpose of quickly removing the device. After use, the device is reinserted into the insertion port 4, and the locking mechanism 5 will push the locking mechanism 7 to lock again under the elastic action inside the elastic pressing mechanism 8, completing the fixation of the device and making it easy to carry.
[0032] In one embodiment, the protective shell 1 is provided with a charging hole 101 on one side of the device placement area 9, a plurality of sound holes 102 are provided on the protective shell 1, and a plurality of anti-slip strips 103 are fixedly installed on the protective shell 1.
[0033] The charging port 101 on the protective case 1 is for the convenience of users to charge without removing the translation device. The multiple sound holes 102 on the protective case 1 are to ensure the normal transmission of sound from the translation device. The multiple anti-slip strips 103 fixedly installed on the protective case 1 can increase the friction when the user holds the protective case.
[0034] In one embodiment, the snap-in mechanism 5 includes a connecting block 501, the hanging rope 6 is installed on the connecting block 501, an insertion rod 502 is fixedly installed at one end of the connecting block 501, and sliding grooves 104 are symmetrically opened inside the protective shell 1.
[0035] An insertion block 503 is fixedly installed at the other end of the insertion rod 502, and the insertion block 503 is arranged in the shape of a frustum.
[0036] Both of the latching mechanisms 7 include latching blocks 701, both of the latching blocks 701 are arranged in a right-angled trapezoidal shape, and the hypotenuse of the two latching blocks 701 is located on the side closer to the insertion block 503.
[0037] The two snap-fit blocks 701 are slidably installed inside the protective shell 1, and push rods 702 are fixedly installed on both snap-fit blocks 701.
[0038] Both of the elastic pressing mechanisms 8 include a sliding rod 801, which is slidably mounted on the protective shell 1. A spring 802 is sleeved on each of the two sliding rods 801, and a push block 803 is fixedly mounted on one end of each of the two sliding rods 801. The two push blocks 803 are respectively fixedly mounted to the two push rods 702.
[0039] One end of the spring 802 is fixedly mounted on the push block 803 and the other end is fixedly mounted on the protective shell 1. The push block 803 is slidably mounted in the sliding groove 104.
[0040] The lanyard 6 is installed on the connecting block 501. When the user needs to connect the translation device to the protective shell 1 via the lanyard 6, the user holds the lanyard 6 and pushes the connecting block 501, causing the insertion rod 502 fixedly installed at one end of the connecting block 501 and the insertion block 503 at the other end of the insertion rod 502 to move towards the insertion port 4 at the top of the protective shell 1. Since the insertion block 503 is shaped like a frustum, as the insertion block 503 goes deeper into the protective shell 1, the two locking blocks 701 are shaped like right-angled trapezoids, with the hypotenuse located near the insertion block 503. After the frustum-shaped side of the insertion block 503 contacts the hypotenuse of the locking block 701, as the insertion block 503 continues to go deeper, the insertion block 503 will push the two locking blocks 701 into the protective shell 1. The locking blocks 701 slide away from each other along the inside of the protective shell 1. The push rods 702 fixedly mounted on each locking block 701 also move synchronously. The push rods 702 drive the push blocks 803 to move, and the push blocks 803 pull the springs 802, compressing them and increasing their elastic potential energy. When the insertion block 503 is fully inserted into the appropriate position, due to the loss of the action of the two locking blocks 701 and the release of the elastic potential energy from the springs 802, the locking blocks 701 return to their initial position. At this time, the right-angled edges of the locking blocks 701 tightly lock the insertion block 503, thus achieving a locking and fixing of the insertion block 503, completing the stable connection of the translation device to the protective shell 1 via the hanging rope 6.
[0041] When the user needs to remove the translation device, the sliding rod 801 is slidably mounted on the protective shell 1 and fitted with a spring 802. One end of the spring 802 is fixed to the push block 803, and the other end is fixed to the protective shell 1. The push block 803 is slidably mounted in the sliding groove 104. When the user presses both push blocks 803 at the same time, the push blocks 803 drive the sliding rod 801 to slide in the sliding groove 104. The push blocks 803 push the push rod 702 that is in contact with it, thereby pushing the locking block 701 to move away from each other, releasing the locking effect of the locking block 701 on the insertion block 503. Then the hanging rope 6 can be pulled, which will then drive the connecting block 501, the insertion rod 502, and the insertion block 503, causing the insertion block 503 to disengage from the two locking blocks 701. After the user releases the push block 803, under the elastic action of the spring 802, the sliding rod 801 and the push block 803 return to their initial positions, realizing the function of convenient connection and quick access between the device and the hanging rope.
