Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of swimming equipment technology, and in particular to a foldable swimming training tube. Background Technology
[0002] A swimming training tube is a type of swimming respirator that helps swimmers breathe and prevents water from entering their mouth. Existing respirators mainly consist of a main body, a mouthpiece, and a fixing structure. For ease of carrying, the main body and fixing structure are usually designed to be detachable. With this design, the fixing structure is assembled with the main body to secure it to the head during use; when carrying, the main body is detached to save storage space and protect the fixing structure. While this design effectively solves the carrying problem, the need to disassemble and reassemble the fixing structure each time it is used / stored is cumbersome. Furthermore, repeated disassembly and reassembly can cause the connection between the fixing structure and the main body to loosen, leading to instability. Additionally, the simplest respirator, consisting of a mouthpiece and a plastic bend, requires forceful blowing to expel water from the bottom mouthpiece to the top of the tube when water is poured in, resulting in a poor user experience. Therefore, further improvements to the structure of swimming training tubes are needed. Utility Model Content
[0003] In view of this, the present invention provides a foldable swimming training tube, which addresses the problems of the prior art by designing a foldable and one-way throat cap swimming training tube to solve the existing technical problems.
[0004] The objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0005] A foldable swimming training tube includes a breathing tube, which includes a lower tube. A mounting seat 1 is provided on the upper right side of the lower tube. An upper tube is rotatably mounted on the mounting seat 1 via a pivot 1. A mounting seat 2 is provided on the upper left side of the lower tube. A buckle plate is rotatably mounted on the mounting seat 2 via a pivot 2. A buckle cover is rotatably and linkagely mounted on the upper center of the buckle plate via a pivot 3. A buckle groove is provided inside the lower side of the buckle cover. A hook corresponding to the buckle groove is provided on the lower left side of the upper tube.
[0006] The upper tube can be rotated and folded to the right through the pivot. When the upper tube is rotated to the left and its lower end touches the upper end of the lower tube, the buckle plate is pushed outward to drive the buckle cover upward. Then, the front end of the buckle groove is fastened to the hook, and the buckle plate is pushed inward to drive the buckle cover downward to fasten the hook. This will fasten the upper tube to the lower tube. When folding is required, the operation is reversed to disengage the buckle groove and the hook, and the upper tube is rotated and folded to the right.
[0007] Furthermore, the upper end of the lower pipe wall is provided with a raised edge, and the lower end of the upper pipe wall is provided with a sealing groove into which the corresponding raised edge engages.
[0008] Furthermore, an O-ring is provided inside the sealing groove.
[0009] Furthermore, the lower end of the lower tube is fixedly connected to a mouthpiece via a collar, and the bottom of the mouthpiece is obliquely connected to a mouthpiece tube in the upper right direction. A one-way mouthpiece cover that opens outward is sealed on the left side of the bottom of the mouthpiece.
[0010] Furthermore, the throat and mouthpiece tubes are made of silicone.
[0011] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0012] This invention designs the breathing tube as a foldable upper tube that can be opened and closed via a snap-on latch on the lower tube. The structure is simple, easy to fold and snap, and convenient for users to carry and use. Furthermore, a mouthpiece is angled upwards and to the right at the lower end of the lower tube, facilitating the flow of incoming liquid to the bottom of the mouthpiece. A one-way mouthpiece cap that opens outwards is sealed at the bottom of the mouthpiece, allowing the user to expel the liquid collected at the bottom of the mouthpiece during exhalation, eliminating the need for further upward blowing and improving the user experience.

[0020] To facilitate carrying and to drain the liquid inside the tube, the specific details of this utility model are as follows.
[0021] Combination Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, an embodiment of this utility model is a foldable swimming training tube, including a breathing tube 10. Importantly, the breathing tube 10 includes a lower tube 11. A mounting seat 12 is provided on the upper right side of the lower tube 11. An upper tube 14 is rotatably mounted on the mounting seat 12 via a pivot 13. A mounting seat 25 is provided on the upper left side of the lower tube 11. A buckle plate 17 is rotatably mounted on the mounting seat 25 via a pivot 26. A buckle cover 19 is rotatably mounted on the upper middle part of the buckle plate 17 via a pivot 318. A buckle groove 191 is provided inside the lower side of the buckle cover 19. A hook 141 corresponding to the buckle groove 191 is provided on the lower left side of the upper tube 14.
[0022] The upper tube 14 can be folded to the right by rotating the pivot 13. After the lower end of the upper tube 14 is rotated to the left and pressed against the upper end of the lower tube 11, the buckle plate 17 is pushed outward to drive the buckle cover 19 upward. Then, the front end of the buckle groove 191 is fastened to the hook 141 and the buckle plate 17 is pushed inward to drive the buckle cover 19 downward to fasten the hook 141. This can fasten the upper tube 14 onto the lower tube 11.
