Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of daily necessities technology, specifically to a clothespin and clothesline that can be fixed. Background Technology

[0002] With population growth and accelerated urbanization, the number of households is increasing, and living space is relatively tight, making the demand for clothes drying equipment more urgent and driving the expansion of the household clothesline market. At the same time, the popularity of outdoor sports and tourism has led to a gradual increase in demand for outdoor clotheslines, with higher requirements for functionality and portability, further promoting the development of outdoor clotheslines. However, outdoor winds are usually strong, and the clips on the clothesline are prone to sliding and clustering together under the wind. If the clips cluster together, it will cause clothes to be squeezed and obstructed, affecting the drying effect, making it difficult for clothes to fully unfold, prolonging drying time, and potentially causing mold growth due to excessive local humidity. Therefore, it is necessary to ensure that the clips are kept at an appropriate distance so that the clothes can be evenly distributed, fully exposed to air, accelerate moisture evaporation, and improve drying efficiency. Secondly, if the clips slide and cluster without restriction on the clothesline, it may cause excessive local stress on the clothesline, leading to accelerated wear, deformation, or even breakage. Summary of the Invention

[0003] This utility model addresses the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing a fixable clothespin and clothesline. The clothespin can be fixed at any position on the clothesline body without moving, eliminating the need for sliding limiters.

They are only for the convenience of describing this application 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 application.

[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, a clothesline consists of a clothesline body 1, hooks 2, and a clothespin 3 that can be fixed; the hooks 2 are fixedly connected to both ends of the clothesline body 1; the clothespins 3 are sleeved on the clothesline body 1 and are distributed at intervals along the length of the clothesline body 1.

[0028] like Figure 2-5 As shown, the clothespin 3 is composed of a clothespin body 301 and a rope locking mechanism 302. The clothespin body 301 includes a fixed part 311 and a movable part 312. The rope locking mechanism 302 includes a pressure-bearing part 321 and a pressing part 322. The fixed part 311 extends upward and connects to the pressure-bearing part 321.

[0029] The pressing part 322 is sleeved in the pressure-bearing part 321. A helical spring 323 is provided between the pressure-bearing part 321 and the pressing part 322. The pressure-bearing part 321 and the pressing part 322 are respectively provided with a first latch 324 and a second latch 325 facing the same direction. The first latch 324 and the second latch 325 are symmetrical in shape. The inner side of the second latch 325 includes three parts: an upper plane 3251, a lower plane 3252, and an arc surface 3253. One end of the arc surface 3253 is tangentially connected to the upper plane 3251, and the other end of the arc surface 3253 is connected to the lower plane 3252. The lowest horizontal position of the arc surface 3253 is lower than that of the lower plane 3252. When the pressing part 322 is pressed to compress the helical spring 323, the volume of the intersection of the first latch 324 and the second latch 325 increases to form the maximum through hole, at which time the clothespin body 301 can be inserted into the through hole; when the helical spring 323 is reset, the volume of the intersection of the first latch 324 and the second latch 325 decreases to form the minimum through hole, and the clothespin body 301 can be locked.

[0030] like Figure 2 As shown, the lower contour of the first bayonet 324 can extend downward to form a limiting groove 3213, and a limiting protrusion 3222 is provided below the lower contour of the second bayonet 325. The limiting protrusion 3222 is adapted to the limiting groove 3213. When the pressing part 322 is pressed, the limiting protrusion 3222 enters the limiting groove 3213, which can prevent excessive pressing.

[0031] like Figure 4 As shown, a grooved first slide 3211 is provided on the inner wall of the pressure-bearing part 321. The bottom end of the first slide 3211 does not touch the bottom of the inner wall, and the top end extends to the top of the inner wall; as shown Figure 5 As shown, the outer wall of the pressing part 322 is provided with a longitudinal protrusion 3221, which is adapted to the first slide rail 3211. A first annular platform 3212 may be further provided at the bottom of the inner part of the pressure-bearing part 321, and a helical spring 323 is disposed in the center of the first annular platform 3212. The bottom of the pressing part 322 is provided with a groove, through which the pressing part 322 is supported on the helical spring 323. When the helical spring 323 is compressed, the bottom of the pressing part 322 fits against the first annular platform 3212. Furthermore, when the helical spring 323 is compressed and reset, the protrusion 3221 can slide within the first slide rail 3211.

[0032] A flange 3223 is provided circumferentially at the top of the pressing part 322, and the bottom surface of the flange 3223 corresponds to the upper surface of the bearing part 321. When the helical spring 323 is compressed, the flange 3223 fits into the bearing part 321, further limiting the pressing part 322.

[0033] The fixed part 311 and the movable part 312 are connected and fixed by a pin. A torsion spring 313 is provided on the pin, and the two ends of the torsion spring 313 abut against the inner surfaces of the fixed part 311 and the movable part 312, respectively. The inner surface of the movable part 312 is provided with a longitudinal second slide rail 3121. When the movable part 312 is pressed or released, one end of the torsion spring 313 can move in the second slide rail 3121, thereby opening and closing the clothesline body 1.

[0034] The above description of embodiments of the present invention, through which those skilled in the art are able to implement or use the present invention, will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art. Various modifications to these embodiments will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art.
