[0030] like Figures 1 to 10As shown, this utility model discloses a quick-locking handlebar plug structure, including a handlebar plug assembly 1. A tool 3 can be placed inside the handlebar plug assembly 1. The handlebar plug assembly 1 is installed into a first cavity 201 at one or both ends of the handlebar 2. The handlebar plug assembly 1 includes an end cap 101 and a main body 102. A second cavity 103 is provided inside the main body 102, and the tool 3 is disposed in the second cavity 103. The end cap 101 and the main body 102 are detached and reassembled via a locking device 4. The locking device 4 includes a protrusion 401 and a groove 402. The protrusion 401 is integrally injection molded on the inner wall 104 of the end cap 101, and the groove 402 is disposed on the outer wall 105 of the main body 102. The end cap 101 and the main body 102 are installed by the cooperation of the protrusion 401 and the groove 402.
[0031] Specifically, in order to facilitate the installation of the end cap 101 into the body 102, the protrusion 401 includes a beveled portion 4011 and a first flat portion 4012; the beveled portion 4011 faces the body 102, and the beveled portion 4011 and the first flat portion 4012 form an obtuse angle.
[0032] Furthermore, in order to facilitate the installation of the end cap 101 into the main body 102 and to further enable rotational disassembly, the bottom surface 4021 of the groove 402 is an inclined surface, and the bottom surface 4021 is connected to the outer wall 105; the bottom surface 4021 cooperates with the first flat part 4012.
[0033] More specifically, the protrusion 401 further includes a second planar portion 4013, a third planar portion 4014, and a fourth planar portion 4015; the first planar portion 4012 is perpendicular to the second planar portion 4013, and the first planar portion 4012 is perpendicular to the third planar portion 4014; the fourth planar portion 4015 is connected to the inclined portion 4011.
[0034] More specifically, the groove 402 further includes a fifth planar portion 4022, a sixth planar portion 4023, and a seventh planar portion 4024; the fifth planar portion 4022 cooperates with the second planar portion 4013; the sixth planar portion 4023 cooperates with the third planar portion 4014; and the seventh planar portion 4024 cooperates with the fourth planar portion 4015.
[0035] To facilitate the installation of the end cap 101, the front end of the main body 102 is also provided with a bevel 106, which can cooperate with the beveled part 4011.
[0036] Specifically, the cross-section of the protrusion 401 is a right-angled trapezoid.
[0037] In this embodiment, tool 3 can be an internal hex screwdriver, Phillips screwdriver, flathead screwdriver, or any screwdriver that can be used on a bicycle. Tool 2 can be rotated left and right and folded together.
[0038] In order to fix the tool 3, the end cap 101 is also provided with a first connector 107 and a second connector 108. The first connector 107 and the second connector 108 are arranged parallel to each other vertically, and the first connector 107 and the second connector 108 clamp the tool 3.
[0039] To further secure the tool 3, a hook 109 is provided at the end of the first connector 107, and a groove 301 is provided on the tool 3 to cooperate with the hook 109.
[0040] To achieve a seal and prevent water from entering the main body 102, a sealing ring 1010 is also provided on the inner ring of the end cap 101. The sealing ring 1010 is integrally injection molded with the end cap 101 and is in contact with the main body 102.
[0041] Specifically, the end cap 101 is circular to facilitate rotation.
[0042] The cover 101 and the main body 102 are made of plastic, which allows the cover 101 to undergo certain deformations.
[0043] During installation, such as Figure 10 As shown, the tool 3 is installed in conjunction with the first connecting body 107 and the second connecting body 108 of the cover 101. Then, the cover 101 is installed on the main body 102. At this time, the cover 101 undergoes a certain deformation and rotates on the outer wall 105 of the main body 102, rotating clockwise or counterclockwise. Under the action of the first flat part 4012 and the bottom surface 4021 of the inclined body, the protrusion 401 slides into the groove 402. At this time, the assembly of the cover 101, the main body 102 and the tool 3 is completed, that is, the assembly of the handlebar plug assembly 1 is completed. Then, the handlebar plug assembly 1 is snapped and fixedly installed into the first cavity 201 at one or both ends of the handlebar 2.
[0044] When disassembly is required, the handlebar plug assembly 1 is removed from the handlebar 2, and then the cover 101 is rotated counterclockwise. Under the action of the inclined bottom surface 4021, the protrusion 401 slides into the outer wall 105. At this time, the protrusion 401 disengages from the groove 402, so the cover 101 can be separated from the main body 102, and the tool 3 can be taken out.
[0045] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
[0046] Those skilled in the art should recognize that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any appropriate changes and variations made to the above embodiments within the scope of the essential spirit of the present utility model shall fall within the scope of protection claimed by the present utility model.
