Detailed Implementation

[0025] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0026] Please see Figure 1-4 As shown, this embodiment provides a quick-release ball joint assembly, including: a ball joint 1.

[0027] like Figure 1-4 As shown, in this embodiment, a ball head 2 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the ball head 1, and a mounting ring 3 is wrapped around the top of the ball head 2. A hook 305 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting ring 3. A ball seat 4 is provided below the ball head 2, and a fixing groove 401 is formed at the top of the ball seat 4. A retaining ring 402 is fixedly connected to the side of the fixing groove 401. The ball head 1 passes through the center of the mounting ring 3, and the top edge of the ball head 2 fits against the inner groove of the mounting ring 3. The retaining ring 402 is provided with a half-circle in the fixing groove 401. Similarly, the hook 305 at the bottom of the mounting ring 3 is also a half-circle. The mounting ring 3 with the ball head 2 installed is then... The ball seat 4 is attached from top to bottom. First, the hooks 305 and retaining rings 402 corresponding to the half-circle are misaligned. The hooks 305 are first inserted into the fixing grooves 401 where there are no retaining rings 402. The mounting ring 3 and the ball seat 4 are then attached. Next, the mounting ring 3 is rotated 180 degrees so that the hooks 305 extend under the retaining rings 402 and are attached to the retaining rings 402. The mounting ring 3 and the ball seat 4 are then connected. The ball head 2 is then embedded between the two. The inner side of the top of the mounting ring 3 has a rounded chamfer, which increases the range of rotation of the ball head 1, thus making it easier for the ball head 2 to rotate to adjust the position of the ball head 1.

[0028] like Figure 3 , 4 As shown, the bottom of the inner ring of the mounting ring 3 in this embodiment is concave; the inner ring of the mounting ring 3 is arc-shaped, and the ball head 2 is fitted with the ball head 2 by being wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, so that the ball head 2 is stuck in the mounting ring 3. When the ball head 2 is pulled up, the arc surface fits the inner ring of the mounting ring 3, and it is not easy to detach from the mounting ring 3.

[0029] like Figure 2As shown, the mounting ring 3 in this embodiment is composed of two semi-circular pieces joined together. The two semi-circular mounting rings 3 are joined end to end to form a circle. The two halves are separated to open the center of the mounting ring 3, making it convenient for the ball head 2 to be placed in the center. This eliminates the need for the ball head rod 1 to pass through the mounting ring 3 from bottom to top, making installation faster and more convenient.

[0030] like Figure 3 , 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the mounting ring 3 has an inwardly opening movable hole 301, inside which a spring 304 is installed. A connecting rod 302 is located near the outer side of the movable hole 301, and a pressure block 303 is fixedly connected to the connecting rod 302 outward. The two ends of the spring 304 are respectively connected to the movable hole 301 and the connecting rod 302, pulling the connecting rod 302 to prevent it from detaching from the mounting ring 3. The surface of the pressure block 303 on the connecting rod 302 is arc-shaped, which can fit against the ball head 2. The space of the combination of the mounting ring 3 and the ball seat 4 can ensure that the ball head 2 can rotate and move up and down inside. When the top of the ball head 2 fits against the pressure block 303 upward, the pressure block 303 pushes the connecting rod 302 into the movable hole 301 to compress the spring 304, reducing the impact of the ball head 2 on the mounting ring 3. At the same time, the limiting effect of the pressure block 303 prevents the ball head 2 from detaching from the top of the mounting ring 3.

[0031] like Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, a positioning block 403 is fixedly connected to the side of the ball seat 4. A threaded hole 404 is formed through the side of the positioning block 403. A threaded hole 306 is formed at the position corresponding to the threaded hole 404. A locking screw 307 is rotatably installed inside the threaded hole 306 and the threaded hole 404. The positioning block 403 protrudes upward on the side of the ball seat 4, which does not affect the installation of the mounting ring 3. After the two mounting rings 4 are closed, they are fixed by the locking screw 307 through the alignment of the threaded hole 306. Then, the mounting ring 3 is rotated until the hook 305 is engaged with the retaining ring 402. When the two are fully engaged in the appropriate position, the threaded hole 306 is exactly aligned with the threaded hole 404. The locking screw 307 is rotated further to be engaged in the threaded hole 404. The mounting ring 3 is connected to the ball seat 4 through the positioning block 403. With the help of the hook 305 and the retaining ring 402, the mounting ring 3 and the ball seat 4 are completely fixed.

[0032] like Figure 3 As shown, the ball seat 4 in this embodiment has an oil injection hole 405 on its side; wherein, the oil injection hole is U-shaped, extends downward and then connects upward to the inside of the ball seat 4, and lubricating oil is added into the ball seat 4 to achieve external oil injection of the ball head pin, and the arc-shaped oil channel prevents internal lubricating oil from seeping out and causing waste.

[0033] Working principle: Take two mounting rings 3, align and assemble them at the ball head rod 1, and put them down on the ball head 2, so that the pressure block 303 presses on the surface of the ball head 2. After the mounting rings 3 are assembled, align the hook 305 with the half of the ball seat 4 fixing groove 401 without the retaining ring 402 and press it down. The mounting rings 3 and the ball seat 4 are in contact. Then rotate the mounting rings 3 or the ball seat 4 180° so that the hook 305 is inserted into the retaining ring 402. Finally, insert the locking screw 307 into the first threaded hole 306 and rotate it until it is inserted into the second threaded hole 404 to fix the mounting rings 3 and the ball seat 4. The installation is completed. When disassembly is required, simply unscrew the locking screw 307 and rotate the mounting rings 3 or the ball seat 4 in the opposite direction to separate the two.
