The drawback of this technical solution is that the assembly and disassembly of the upper and lower covers during battery pack assembly and maintenance is cumbersome, leading to low efficiency.

[0004] In summary, existing vacuum cleaner battery packs suffer from low efficiency during assembly, disassembly, and maintenance. Utility Model Content

[0005] This invention aims to overcome the inefficiency of battery pack assembly, disassembly, and maintenance in existing vacuum cleaner technologies by providing a vacuum cleaner battery pack button structure that improves the efficiency of battery pack assembly, disassembly, and maintenance.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A vacuum cleaner battery pack button structure includes a base, a top cover detachably connected to the base, a guide seat and a limiting seat connected to the base; a buckle, a support plate connected to the base, the buckle positioned above the support plate, one end of the buckle engaging with the top cover, and the other end of the buckle elastically connected to the top cover; a pushing assembly, which has a pushing rib and a limiting rib, the pushing rib being slidably connected to the guide seat, the limiting rib being slidably connected to the limiting seat, and the buckle being rotatably connected to the base via the pushing assembly; a reinforcing rib, which is connected to the buckle; and a button, which is connected to the pushing assembly, movably connected to the top cover, and elastically connected to the base.

[0008] The top cover and base are connected as a single unit to hold the battery pack. The base has a guide seat and a limiting seat. The base supports the buckle via a support plate. One end of the buckle is elastically connected to the top cover, allowing the other end to engage with it. A limiting rib in the pushing assembly slides along the guide seat, lifting the elastic end of the buckle and disengaging it from the top cover, thus opening the unit. This facilitates unlocking the top cover and easy disassembly of the battery pack. The limiting rib limits the travel of the pushing rib, increasing the accuracy and efficiency of unlocking. Reinforcing ribs prevent the buckle from breaking under stress. A button is connected to the pushing assembly, allowing the pushing rib and limiting rib to be pushed from the outside of the top cover. The button is elastically connected to the base to increase damping and automatic reset when pressed. This design achieves efficient assembly, disassembly, and maintenance of the battery pack through automatic locking and button unlocking, with a simple structure, reliable connection, and enhanced ease of operation.

[0009] Preferably, the base is connected to a front side plate, which is positioned on one side of the guide seat. The guide seat has a guide groove, and the pushing assembly includes a guide strip. A pushing rib is connected to the guide strip, and the guide strip has a guide slot. The guide seat and the guide strip are interlocked through the guide groove and guide slot, and the guide strip is slidably connected to the front side plate. The guide seat is connected to the base and positioned below the buckle. The guide strip is inserted into the guide slot of the guide seat and into the guide groove of the guide seat, allowing the guide strip to move directionally and reciprocally on the guide seat when the button is pressed, improving movement stability and ensuring that the pushing rib can stably guide and connect with the buckle to push the buckle. The front side plate is connected to the base and positioned on one side of the guide seat to further limit and guide the guide strip laterally. This achieves the effect of improving structural connection stability and operational accuracy.

[0010] Preferably, the limiting seat is provided with a limiting groove, and the limiting rib plate is slidably connected to the limiting groove. A guide plate is connected to the limiting rib plate, the thickness of which is less than the thickness of the limiting rib plate. The limiting rib plate slides on the limiting seat by sliding with the limiting groove. The thinner guide plate at its front end first enters the limiting groove to guide the limiting rib plate. This enhances the smoothness of the sliding between the limiting rib plate and the limiting groove and prevents jamming.

[0011] Preferably, the pushing assembly includes a bracket and an elastic mechanism. A pushing rib is connected to one side of one end of the bracket, a limiting rib is connected to the other side of one end of the bracket, and a button is connected to the other end of the bracket. The top cover has a clearance hole into which the button is inserted. One end of the elastic mechanism is connected to the base, and the other end is connected to the bracket. The two ends of one end face of the bracket in the pushing assembly are respectively connected to the pushing rib and the limiting rib, and the other end is connected to the button. This allows the pushing rib and the limiting rib on the bracket to move in conjunction with the button. The elastic mechanism, by connecting the base and the bracket, provides damping when the button is pressed and automatically resets the button, allowing the pushing rib and the limiting rib to disengage from their latches. The clearance hole facilitates the button extending out of the top cover for easy button positioning and operation. This achieves the effect of improving structural assembly stability and operational convenience.

[0012] Preferably, the buckle includes a connecting plate, a mounting shell, and a buckle block. The mounting shell is connected to one end of the connecting plate, and the buckle block is connected to the other end of the connecting plate. The upper cover has a buckle groove, and the buckle block engages with the buckle groove. The pushing rib has a pushing inclined surface, and the mounting shell has a sliding inclined surface. The pushing rib is slidably connected to the sliding inclined surface of the mounting shell through the pushing inclined surface. The buckle includes a connecting plate in the middle, a mounting shell connected at one end, and a buckle block connected at the other end. The buckle block engages with the buckle groove of the upper cover. One side of the pushing rib is a pushing inclined surface, and one side of the mounting shell opposite to the pushing inclined surface is a sliding inclined surface. When the pushing rib pushes the mounting shell, the inclined sliding inclined surface and the pushing inclined surface fit together when force is applied, causing the mounting shell to move on the pushing inclined surface of the pushing rib and then move upward, causing the buckle block on the other side to disengage from the buckle groove and unlock the buckle. This improves the smoothness of structural operation.

[0013] Preferably, the mounting shell has a mounting cavity, and the mounting groove has a second elastic mechanism. One end of the second elastic mechanism is connected to the bottom of the mounting cavity, and the other end abuts against the top cover. The mounting shell connects to the second elastic mechanism through the mounting cavity, so that when the top cover and base are installed, the second elastic mechanism is pressed down to apply force to the fastener on the other side and enter the fastener groove. The mounting cavity prevents the second elastic mechanism from deforming laterally during compression and stretching. This achieves the effect of improving structural connection and operational stability.

[0014] Preferably, the buckle includes a support rod connected to a connecting plate. Several reinforcing ribs are provided, connected to both the connecting plate and the support rod. A limit plate is connected to the top cover, and the limit plate has a limit groove. The support rod engages with the limit groove. The support rod is connected to the middle of the connecting plate, serving as a fulcrum to support the rotation of the connecting plate on both sides. After engaging with the limit plate on the top cover via the limit groove, the structural connection is stable. Multiple reinforcing ribs are connected to the middle of the connecting plate and to the support rod to prevent the connecting plate from breaking under stress. This achieves the effect of improving structural assembly stability, enhancing structural strength, and preventing breakage.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: it enables efficient assembly, disassembly and maintenance of the battery pack through automatic locking of the latch and unlocking by pressing the button; it has a simple structure and reliable connection; it enhances the practicality and convenience of operation; it improves the stability of the structural connection and the accuracy of operation; it improves the smoothness of the structural operation; and it enhances the structural strength to prevent breakage.
