[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0023] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 An embodiment of this utility model provides an ISOFIX connection structure, including a sliding sleeve 1, a guide sleeve 4 and an end cap 12 inside the sliding sleeve 1, a housing 2 inside both the guide sleeve 4 and the end cap 12, an unlocking pin 15 inside the housing 2, a connecting block 6 inside the housing 2, rivets 5 inside both the sliding sleeve 1 and the guide sleeve 4, a locking hook 3 rotatably connected to the outer wall of the leftmost rivet 5, a tension spring 7 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the locking hook 3, the outer wall of the tension spring 7 fixedly connected to the inside of the connecting block 6, a limit pin 8 inside both the housing 2 and the connecting block 6, a stop block 9 rotatably connected to the outer wall of the limit pin 8, a compression spring 10 fixedly connected to the lower surface of the stop block 9, the outer wall of the compression spring 10 fixedly connected to the inside of the connecting block 6, a linear knurled shaft 11 fixedly connected to the inside of the connecting block 6, a micro switch spring 16 on the lower surface of the locking hook 3, and a limit assembly inside the housing 2.
[0024] Specifically, the right side of the microswitch spring 16 is connected to a display or other device in the prior art to show the ISOFIX status. Multiple grooves are formed inside the sliding sleeve 1, and the cooperation between the stop block 9 and the limiting component facilitates the limiting or release of the entire housing 2. The housing 2 is a split type, divided into two parts, and is fixed by multiple rivets 5. A groove on the left side of the housing 2 cooperates with a groove on the locking hook 3. As the locking hook 3 rotates, it locks or releases any object entering the groove of the housing 2. Then, through the cooperation between the micro switch spring 16 and other electronic components, the locked or unlocked state is indicated. The sliding sleeve 1 and guide sleeve 4 are fixed by rivets 5, while the entire shell 2 and end cap 12 are fixed. The sliding sleeve 1 and guide sleeve 4 are used to cooperate with the stop block 9 and the limiting component to facilitate the movement of the sliding sleeve 1. The rotation of the stop block 9 is limited by the limiting pin 8. The elastic force of the compression spring 10 is used to push against the stop block 9, so that the upper outer wall of the stop block 9 extends out of the connecting block 6 and the shell 2, thereby locking it inside the sliding sleeve 1 and limiting the movement of the sliding sleeve 1.
[0025] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 The limiting assembly includes a limiting locking plate 14, the outer wall of which is located inside the housing 2. A ratchet spring 13 is fixedly connected inside the limiting locking plate 14, and the outer wall of the ratchet spring 13 is fixedly connected inside the housing 2. The upper outer wall of the limiting locking plate 14 is located inside the sliding sleeve 1. The inner wall of the limiting locking plate 14 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the right rivet 5, and the outer wall of the rightmost rivet 5 is located below the limiting locking plate 14.
[0026] Specifically, a rivet 5 is provided inside the limiting locking plate 14. The rotation of the limiting locking plate 14 is limited by the fixed rivet 5. A bushing is provided inside the outer shell 2 and is located on the left side of the limiting locking plate 14. The rightmost rivet 5 is located on the lower side of the limiting locking plate 14, thereby limiting the rotation range of the limiting locking plate 14. The tension of the ratchet spring 13 is used to make the lower side of the limiting locking plate 14 contact the rightmost rivet 5. The outer wall of the limiting locking plate 14 extends out of the connecting block 6 and the inner shell 2, thereby limiting the sliding sleeve 1.
[0027] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 The outer wall of the locking hook 3 is located inside the outer shell 2, and four rivets 5 are provided; the outer wall of the stop block 9 is located inside the connecting block 6, and the upper outer wall of the stop block 9 is located inside the sliding sleeve 1; the linear knurled shaft 11 is located inside the outer shell 2, and the outer wall of the unlocking pin 15 is slidably connected to the inside of the connecting block 6; the outer wall of the micro switch spring 16 is located inside the outer shell 2 and the connecting block 6, and the outer wall of the connecting block 6 is located on the outer wall of the locking hook 3;
[0028] Specifically, the movement range of the locking hook 3 is restricted by the interior of the outer shell 2, and the movement range of the stop block 9 is also restricted. The upper side of the stop block 9 is provided with a protrusion for extending out of the interior of the connecting block 6 and the outer shell 2 to limit the movement of the sliding sleeve 1. The interior of the outer shell 2 is provided with a groove. Although the straight knurled shaft 11 does not directly contact the groove of the outer shell 2, the two sides of the groove of the outer shell 2 limit the movement range of the straight knurled shaft 11. The left outer wall of the connecting block 6 is provided at the tail end of the locking hook 3. As the connecting block 6 moves, the rotation of the locking hook 3 is limited or released.
[0029] Working principle: When using this structure, the initial state is unlocked. The microswitch spring 16 is connected to the electronic components. The locking mechanism pushes the locking hook 3, causing it to rotate under the limit of the rivet 5, i.e., locking downwards. The locking hook 3, via the tension spring 7, drives the connecting block 6 to move to the left inside the housing 2, thus abutting the locking hook 3. The tail of the locking hook 3 disengages from the microswitch spring 16, disconnecting the signal and indicating ISOFIX locking. By pushing the ISOFIX to slide inside the sliding sleeve 1, the connecting block 6 is pulled to the right, and the tension spring 7 drives the locking hook 3, causing it to rotate upwards and unlock. After unlocking, the connecting block 6 is pulled by the tension spring 7, abutting the locking hook 3, causing the tail of the locking hook 3 to trigger the microswitch spring 16, connecting the signal and indicating ISOFIX locking. When ISOFIX is opened, the upward rotation of the compression spring 10 causes its upper side to enter the interior of the sliding sleeve 1, thereby limiting the outer shell 2 and the connecting block 6. The connecting block 6 is pulled further, causing it to abut against the stop block 9 via the unlocking pin 15, causing the stop block 9 to rotate downward until the upper outer wall of the outer shell 2 is completely flush with the outer surface of the outer shell 2. At the same time, the right side of the connecting block 6 abuts against the limiting lock plate 14, causing the limiting lock plate 14 to rotate under the limitation of the rivet 5, causing the ratchet spring 13 to deform until the upper outer wall of the limiting lock plate 14 is flush with the surface of the outer shell 2, thereby achieving complete unlocking. The sliding sleeve 1 has multiple grooves inside, which, in cooperation with the stop block 9 and the limiting lock plate 14, allow ISOFIX to freely adjust its position inside the sliding sleeve 1.
[0030] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
