Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a clip and a fan. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, many portable devices or functional components (such as small fans, lights, speakers, etc.) are often designed for handheld use or require temporary fixation due to their lightweight nature. When users want to attach these items to flat straps (such as backpack shoulder straps, belts, sports equipment straps, tool straps, etc.) to free their hands for operation, they often encounter the problem of inconvenient fixation.

[0003] Common fixation methods include:

[0004] (1) Direct handheld: This obviously requires one of the user's hands, which greatly limits the user's ability to perform other operations at the same time, reducing convenience and efficiency.

[0005] (2) Simple binding: For example, using ropes, cable ties or Velcro to roughly bind the object to the strap. This method is often not secure enough, and it is easy to loosen or slip, affecting the use effect. Moreover, the installation and disassembly process is cumbersome and may damage the strap or the object.

[0006] (3) Dedicated attachment points: Some backpacks or equipment may be designed with specific attachment points or webbing loops, but they are not very versatile and cannot be adapted to objects of various shapes and sizes or different types of flat straps. Users usually need to purchase adapters separately, which increases costs and complexity.

[0007] Currently, there is a lack of a universal, convenient, reliable, and quick-install / remove fixing device for securely clamping various small objects onto diverse flat belts. Users urgently need a solution that can easily fix objects (such as fans) to the belt without affecting its original function, thereby completely freeing the user's hands and improving the freedom and experience of use.

[0008] The information disclosed in the background section of this utility model is intended only to enhance the understanding of the overall background of this utility model and should not be construed as an admission or in any way implying that such information constitutes prior art known to those skilled in the art.

[0042] Throughout these figures, the same reference numerals denote the same or equivalent parts of the present invention. Detailed Implementation

[0043] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to various embodiments, examples of which are presented in the accompanying drawings and described below. Although the present invention will be described in conjunction with exemplary embodiments, it should be understood that this specification is not intended to limit the present invention to these exemplary embodiments. Rather, the present invention is intended to cover not only these exemplary embodiments, but also various alternatives, modifications, equivalents and other embodiments that may be included within the spirit of the present invention and the scope defined by the appended claims.

[0044] The following is combined with Figures 1 to 9 The clip of the present utility model embodiment will be described.

[0045] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the buckle 100 of this utility model embodiment includes: a base plate 110 and a clamping plate 120.

[0046] The substrate 110 includes a substrate body 111 and mounting portions 112 that protrude forward from the left and right sides of the substrate body 111.

[0047] The pallet 120 includes a pallet body 121 and retaining ring portions 122 that protrude forward from the left and right sides of the pallet body 121.

[0048] The card plate body 121 is disposed on the rear side of the substrate body 111, and the retaining ring 122 is detachably mounted to the mounting part 112 so that the card plate 120 can be detachably mounted to the substrate 110.

[0049] With the retaining ring 122 installed on the mounting part 112, a clamping space 130 is formed between the retaining plate body 121 and the base plate body 111, so that the clip 100 is clamped on the flat strip.

[0050] This invention forms a clamping space 130 through the base plate 110 and the clamping plate 120, allowing the clip 100 to be clamped onto the flat belt. This facilitates the mounting of the object to be connected (such as a fan) onto the flat belt, freeing the user's hands and eliminating the need to hold the object continuously. Furthermore, the clamping of the base plate 110 and the clamping plate 120 is secure and reliable, preventing accidental detachment. The clip 100 also boasts strong adaptability and high versatility.

[0051] A flat strap is an object with a flat shape and a strip-like structure. This type of object typically has a wide surface area and a thin thickness, giving it unique advantages in certain applications. Flat straps can be used for backpack straps. Besides backpack straps, flat straps can also include waist belts, shoulder straps, and handles, among other forms.

[0052] In an exemplary implementation, such as Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the substrate 110 further includes a first stop portion 113, which protrudes rearward from the rear surface of the substrate body 111 to increase the friction between the clip 100 and the flat strap, thereby clamping the flat strap more tightly, preventing shaking after installation, and preventing the clip 100 from slipping off relative to the flat strap.

[0053] exist Figure 3 In one embodiment, the first stop 113 is generally plate-shaped. In other embodiments, the first stop 113 may also be columnar or U-shaped.

[0054] exist Figure 3 In one embodiment, the first stop 113 is arranged in a horizontal direction. In other embodiments, the first stop 113 may also be arranged in a vertical direction or in an inclined direction.

[0055] The number of first stop parts 113 can be set to one or more. Figure 3In the proposed implementation, five first stop portions 113 are provided, divided into three groups: a first group, a second group, and a third group, distributed from top to bottom. The first and third groups each include two first stop portions 113, with each group having two relatively short first stop portions 113 located on both sides of the mounting cavity 114, which will be described later. The second group includes one first stop portion 113, which is longer and located between the two mounting cavities 114, as described later. The specific position of the first stop portions 113 on the rear surface of the substrate body 111 can be adjusted according to actual conditions.

[0056] In one embodiment, the first stop 113 and the substrate body 111 may be integrally formed.

[0057] In another embodiment, the first stop 113 and the substrate body 111 can also be assembled together. Preferably, the first stop 113 is detachably mounted on the substrate body 111. After prolonged use, when the first stop 113 becomes worn and unable to effectively increase friction, a new first stop 113 can be replaced to save costs. Furthermore, the substrate body 111 can be made of a common material, while the first stop 113 can be made of a wear-resistant material.

[0058] The first stop 113 and the substrate body 111 can be fixed by a snap-fit ​​connection or other detachable methods. There is no limitation on the fixing method between the two.

[0059] In another embodiment, the first stop 113 is designed in a wave shape, which not only increases the contact area with the flat belt but also improves aesthetics. Furthermore, the surface of the first stop 113 is provided with anti-slip texture, which further enhances friction and ensures that the clip 100 will not slip during use.

[0060] Furthermore, the first stop part 113 is made of an elastic material, such as rubber or silicone, to increase the fit and friction between the buckle 100 and the flat belt.

[0061] In an exemplary implementation, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a forward-recessed mounting cavity 114 is provided on the rear surface of the substrate body 111. The mounting cavity 114 protrudes forward from the front surface of the substrate body 111 to form a locking tongue 115. A first magnet (not shown in the figure) is installed in the mounting cavity 114.

[0062] exist Figure 3In one embodiment, two mounting cavities 114 are provided and distributed vertically. In other embodiments, the number of mounting cavities 114 can be adjusted as needed, for example, it can be any number from 1 to 5. For example, it can be set to 4. The distribution of the mounting cavities 114 can also be adjusted as needed, for example, distributed horizontally.

[0063] exist Figure 3 In one embodiment, the mounting cavity 114 has a rectangular cross-section, with its length extending vertically and its width extending horizontally. In other embodiments, the mounting cavity 114 may also be configured such that its length extends horizontally and its width extends vertically.

[0064] In other embodiments, the cross-sectional shape of the mounting cavity 114 may also be other shapes, such as circular, elliptical, etc.

[0065] The shape and number of the first magnet are adapted to the shape and number of the mounting cavity 114. The first magnet can be a permanent magnet.

[0066] The first magnet can be installed in the corresponding mounting cavity 114 by means of bonding, embedding, etc.

[0067] In exemplary implementations, such as Figure 4 As shown, the latch 115 is provided with a locking part 115a for connecting with the object to be connected.

[0068] The card plate 120 is preferably made of silicone and can be stretched within a certain range so that it can be fitted onto the substrate 110 for connection.

[0069] In one embodiment, the retaining ring 122 is elastic, and the left and right retaining rings 122 are parallel to each other to facilitate clamping the objects to be connected. This embodiment not only facilitates clamping the objects to be connected but also ensures stability and uniform force distribution during the clamping process. In another embodiment, the retaining ring 122 is elastic, and the left and right retaining rings 122 bend towards each other (see details). Figures 5 to 7 This creates a pliers-like structure that allows for more effective clamping of objects, especially those with irregular shapes or large sizes, providing stronger clamping force and better adaptability.

[0070] Furthermore, to enhance the friction between the retaining ring 122 and the object to be connected, and to prevent it from slipping or loosening, the inner surface of the retaining ring 122 may also be provided with anti-slip textures or protrusions. These anti-slip designs can increase the contact area and improve friction, thereby ensuring the stability and safety of the object to be connected during the clamping process.

[0071] In an exemplary implementation, such as Figure 8 As shown, the clamping plate 120 further includes a second stop 123, which protrudes forward from the front surface of the clamping plate body 121 to increase the friction between the clip 100 and the flat strap, thereby clamping the flat strap more tightly, preventing it from shaking after installation, and preventing the clip 100 from slipping off relative to the flat strap.

[0072] exist Figure 8 In one embodiment, the second stop 123 is generally plate-shaped. In other embodiments, the second stop 123 may also be columnar or U-shaped.

[0073] exist Figure 8 In one embodiment, the second stop 123 is arranged in a horizontal direction. In other embodiments, the second stop 123 may also be arranged in a vertical direction or in an inclined direction.

[0074] The number of second stop parts 123 can be set to one or more. Figure 8 In the proposed implementation, two second stop portions 123 are provided, and they are offset from the first stop portion 113. The specific position of the second stop portion 123 on the rear surface of the substrate body 111 can be adjusted according to the actual situation.

[0075] In one embodiment, the second stop 123 and the clamping plate body 121 may be integrally formed.

[0076] In another embodiment, the second stop 123 and the pallet body 121 can also be assembled together. Preferably, the second stop 123 is detachably mounted on the pallet body 121. After prolonged use, when the second stop 123 becomes worn and unable to effectively increase friction, it can be replaced with a new one to save costs. Furthermore, the pallet body 121 can be made of a common material, while the second stop 123 can be made of a wear-resistant material.

[0077] The second stop 123 and the main body 121 can be fixed together by a snap-fit ​​connection or other detachable methods. There is no limitation on the method of fixing the two together.

[0078] In another embodiment, the second stop 123 is designed in a wave shape, which not only increases the contact area with the flat belt but also improves aesthetics. Furthermore, the surface of the second stop 123 is provided with anti-slip texture, which further enhances friction and ensures that the clip 100 will not slip during use.

[0079] Furthermore, the second stop 123 is made of an elastic material, such as rubber or silicone, to increase the fit and friction with the flat belt.

[0080] In an exemplary embodiment, a substrate 110 is provided, and a plurality of mounting portions 112 are provided and distributed along the vertical direction.

[0081] exist Figures 1 to 4 In one embodiment, a substrate 110 is provided with two pairs of mounting portions 112.

[0082] This utility model embodiment also provides a fan, such as Figure 9 As shown, the fan includes: a male clip, a female clip 200, and a fan body 300.

[0083] The male buckle is composed of the aforementioned buckle clip 100.

[0084] The female clip 200 is installed onto the fan body 300 and can be magnetically attached to the male clip. The female clip 200 can also be fixed to the fan body 300 with screws, providing a more seamless installation. Alternatively, the female clip 200 can be detachably installed on the fan body 300, for example, by using a conventional elastic strap. This method offers greater versatility and facilitates replacement of the female clip 200.

[0085] In an exemplary embodiment, the female buckle 200 is provided with a second magnet (not shown in the figure), which is magnetically attracted to the first magnet to attract the female buckle 200 and the male buckle together, thereby mounting the fan body 300 onto the flat belt. The second magnet may be a permanent magnet.

[0086] In an exemplary embodiment, the female buckle 200 is provided with a lock hole 210 into which the locking tongue 115 can be inserted. The female buckle 200 is provided with a locking member (not shown in the figure) that can engage with the locking tongue 115. When the lock hole 210 is close to the locking tongue 115, the locking tongue 115 enters the lock hole 210 and engages with the locking member to set the fan body 300 for use on the buckle 100.

[0087] The connection method and specific connection structure of male and female 200 buckles can be selected according to the situation and are not limited to the methods listed in this article.

[0088] In an exemplary embodiment, the fan further includes a fan head 400, which is rotatably mounted to the fan body 300 to adjust the airflow direction.

[0089] In an exemplary embodiment, a rechargeable battery is installed inside the fan body 300. The rechargeable battery can be used as a power bank to improve battery life and charge the device to be charged (such as a mobile phone).

[0090] In addition to fans, the clip provided in this embodiment can also be used to install other items, such as small water bottles, flashlights, or other small portable devices.

[0091] Users can easily attach small water bottles, flashlights, or other small portable devices to the Clip 100 according to their actual needs, enabling quick and easy attachment and carrying. This multi-functional clip design not only improves ease of use but also greatly expands its application range. Whether in outdoor activities, travel adventures, or daily use, the Clip 100 provides users with great convenience.

[0092] The operation of the clip in the embodiment of this utility model will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0093] The separate substrate 110 and the clamping plate 120 are clamped from the front and rear sides of the flat strap (e.g., a backpack strap), and then the clamping rings 122 at both ends of the clamping plate 120 are fitted onto the mounting portion 112 of the substrate 110. The clamping space 130 is formed between the clamping plate body 121 and the substrate body 111, so that the clip 100 is clamped on the flat strap (e.g., a backpack strap).

[0094] The fan body 300, which is equipped with a female buckle 200, is connected to a male buckle in the form of a clip 100, thereby clamping the fan onto a flat strap (such as a backpack strap).

[0095] As can be seen from the above description, the clip 100 of this utility model embodiment has the following advantages:

[0096] (1) Completely free the user's hands and improve the degree of freedom of operation: The user no longer needs to hold the object to be connected (such as a fan) continuously to use it, which effectively solves the problem of the traditional hand-held method restricting the user's hands.

[0097] (2) Easy and efficient installation, simple and intuitive operation: The separate base plate 110 and the card plate 120 are clamped from the front and back sides of the flat strap (such as a backpack strap) and then fastened together. The installation process is simple and quick, which greatly improves the immediacy and convenience of use. Disassembly is also convenient and quick.

[0098] (3) Stable and reliable clamping to prevent accidental detachment: The design of the clamping space 130 (e.g., through the elasticity of the clamping plate 120, its specific shape, or the friction / clamping force formed with the substrate 110) can provide a stable and uniform clamping force for the flat strip. This effectively avoids the risk of the object to be connected sliding, loosening, or even falling off the strip due to vibration, shaking, or accidental pulling during use, ensuring the safety and reliability of use.

[0099] (4) Wide adaptability and high versatility: The 130 clamping space design (such as having a certain width, adjustability or elasticity) makes it compatible with common flat straps of different thicknesses, widths and materials (such as nylon webbing, leather, canvas etc.), without the need for customization for specific straps.

[0100] (5) Protects the belt and object, and installs without damage: Compared with destructive fixing methods such as using rope binding or piercing with sharp objects, the clamping method of this utility model is a non-destructive and damage-free fixing method. The clamping force is usually achieved through surface contact or reasonable distribution of pressure, which minimizes wear, indentation or damage to the surface of the flat belt (such as webbing texture, coating) and the installation point of the object to be connected, and extends the service life of the belt and object.
