Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of landscape fountain technology, and in particular to a positioning plug for a fountain ornament. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, decorative elements on landscape fountains are manufactured as a single unit along with the main fountain body. This has the following drawbacks: 1. During transportation, decorative elements are easily knocked off, rendering the fountain product unusable. Special care must be taken to wrap the decorative elements to reduce the possibility of breakage, potentially increasing the packaging volume. 2. Because the decorative elements are fixedly connected to the fountain body, the gaps and recesses between them easily accumulate scale, dust, algae, and other stains. Daily cleaning is difficult to thoroughly clean these gaps, which over time affects the overall aesthetics of the fountain. 3. When decorative elements suffer localized damage (such as chipped edges or worn patterns) or age due to long-term use, they cannot be disassembled and replaced individually because they are fixed to the fountain body. The entire fountain must be repaired or replaced, increasing maintenance costs and wasting resources. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of this, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a positioning plug for a fountain ornament to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model adopts the following technical solution:

[0005] A fountain ornament positioning plug is installed on a hole in the fountain body. It includes a column, which is a hollow cylindrical structure. A fixing cap is connected to the top of the column. The outer surface of the column is surrounded by a first spiral-shaped convex pattern or multiple spaced annular second convex patterns.

[0006] Furthermore, the multiple second convex patterns are arranged in a staggered pattern.

[0007] Furthermore, the sidewall of the column is provided with one or two grooves arranged along the axial direction, and the grooves are interrupted at the first or second convex groove.

[0008] Furthermore, the longitudinal cross-section of the first or second convex ridge is arranged in a triangular structure.

[0009] Furthermore, the outer end of the first or second convex ridge has an arc-shaped structure.

[0010] Furthermore, the top surface of the fixing cap is provided with a grid-like pattern of grooves.

[0011] Furthermore, the bottom edge of the fixing cap has an arc-shaped structure.

[0012] Beneficial effects

[0013] Compared to existing technologies, this utility model has at least the following advantages: This utility model enables a detachable connection between the decorative ornament and the fountain body, facilitating transportation and replacement. In use, the decorative ornament is glued to the top surface of the positioning plug, and then the positioning plug is inserted into the hole in the fountain body. The first or second convex groove, through elastic deformation, engages with the sidewall of the hole, enhancing the stability of the positioning plug connection and achieving detachable installation. When the positioning plug is inserted, the groove slightly contracts, temporarily reducing the diameter of the column and decreasing the hard friction between the positioning plug and the sidewall of the hole.

[0024] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention. The term "and / or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0025] Example 1

[0026] See Figures 1-3 This embodiment provides a fountain ornament positioning plug, which is installed on a hole in the fountain body 100. The plug includes a column 1, which is a hollow cylindrical structure. A fixing cap 3 is connected to the top of the column 1. The bottom edge of the fixing cap 3 has an arc-shaped structure, giving it a thicker center and thinner edges. The top surface of the fixing cap 3 has a grid-like pattern of grooves 4. The ornament is glued to the surface of the fixing cap 3. The grooves 4 increase the contact area of ​​the top surface of the fixing cap 3, improving the adhesion of the ornament.

[0027] The outer surface of the column 1 is surrounded by a first raised ridge 2 with an oblique spiral structure. The longitudinal cross-section of the first raised ridge 2 is triangular, which allows for easier deformation during the insertion of the positioning plug, reducing insertion resistance. After insertion, it returns to its original shape, ensuring the stability of the connection. In other embodiments, the outer end of the first raised ridge has an arc-shaped structure to reduce insertion resistance and provide a stable connection.

[0028] The sidewall of the column is provided with one or two grooves 5 arranged axially. The grooves 5 are interrupted at the first convex 2, forming short grooves 50 between adjacent convex 2. The bottom of the grooves 5 is provided with an arc-shaped bottom to reduce stress concentration.

[0029] In practice, when the positioning plug 300 is inserted into the hole of the fountain body, it is gently pushed along the first ridge 2 of the spiral structure. The first ridge can engage with the side wall of the hole, enhancing the stability of the positioning plug connection. The axial groove 5 slightly contracts during insertion, reducing hard friction between the positioning plug and the side wall of the hole. In this embodiment, the positioning plug 300 is made of silicone or ABS engineering plastic.

[0030] Example 2

[0031] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 as well as Figures 4-7 This embodiment provides a fountain ornament positioning plug, which is installed on a hole in the fountain body 100. The plug includes a column 1, which is a hollow cylindrical structure. A fixing cap 3 is connected to the top of the column 1. The bottom edge of the fixing cap 3 has an arc-shaped structure, giving it a thicker center and thinner edges. The top surface of the fixing cap 3 has a grid-like pattern of grooves 4. The ornament is glued to the surface of the fixing cap 3. The grooves 4 increase the contact area of ​​the top surface of the fixing cap 3, improving the adhesion of the ornament.

[0032] The outer surface of the column 1 is surrounded by a plurality of spaced-apart annular second ridges. The plurality of second ridges 6 include a plurality of first ridges 60 and a plurality of second ridges 61, with the height of the first ridges 60 greater than the height of the second ridges 61. The first ridges 60 and the second ridges 61 are arranged alternately, creating a staggered arrangement of the second ridges 6. The longitudinal cross-section of the second ridge 6 is triangular, allowing for easier deformation during insertion of the positioning plug 300, reducing insertion resistance. After insertion, it recovers its deformation, ensuring a stable connection. In other embodiments, the outer end of the second ridge 6 has an arc-shaped structure to further reduce insertion resistance and provide a stable connection.

[0033] The sidewall of the column 1 is provided with one or two grooves 5 arranged axially. The grooves 5 are interrupted at the second convex 6, forming multiple short grooves 50 located between the second convex 6. The bottom of the grooves 5 is set with an arc-shaped bottom to reduce stress concentration.

[0034] In practical implementation, when the positioning plug 300 is inserted into the hole of the fountain body 100, the staggered arrangement of the second raised texture 6 increases the contact and friction with the hole wall, improving overall stability, and avoids the insertion and removal jamming caused by all high raised textures. The high raised texture 60 forms a strong engagement with the hole wall, while the low raised texture 61 reduces local resistance during insertion and enhances multi-layer friction, further improving the anti-loosening effect. The axial groove 5 slightly contracts during insertion, reducing hard friction between the positioning plug and the side wall of the hole.

[0035] In this embodiment, the positioning plug is made of silicone or ABS engineering plastic.

[0036] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
