[0027] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this embodiment clearer, the technical solutions in this embodiment will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0028] In related technologies, sliding cover structures are often used to cover operating modules such as lock cylinder holes, power interfaces, and buttons. That is, to cover the above operating modules to prevent dust or accidental operation. When the operating modules need to be used, they can be exposed by sliding the cover structure. However, when the cover slides along the slide rail, wear usually occurs due to the friction between the two, which can easily lead to a shorter service life of the cover.
[0029] Based on the above-mentioned technical problems, this embodiment provides a sliding cover structure, as shown in the reference. Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the sliding cover structure includes a main body 1, a sliding mechanism 2, and a rolling mechanism 3. The main body 1 is provided with a first sliding groove 110. The sliding mechanism 2 includes a sliding member 210 slidably connected to the first sliding groove 110. The rolling mechanism 3 is connected to the sliding mechanism 2 and can move synchronously with the sliding mechanism 2. The rolling mechanism 3 has a rolling part that rolls against the inner sidewall of the first sliding groove 110 and can move relative to the first sliding groove 110 with the sliding member 210.
[0030] Through the above technical solution, namely the sliding cover structure provided in this embodiment, when the sliding member 210 of the sliding mechanism 2 slides relative to the main body 1, the rolling mechanism 3 can move synchronously with the movement of the sliding mechanism 2. During the synchronous movement, the rolling part rolls and fits against the inner side wall of the first sliding groove 110, thereby reducing the wear of the sliding mechanism 2 relative to the main body 1 and thus improving the service life of the sliding mechanism 2.
[0031] It should be noted that the sliding mechanism 2 mentioned in the above embodiments may include a sliding cover (which will be described in detail below), and the sliding mechanism 2 can also be used to shield operation modules such as lock cylinder holes, power interfaces, and buttons. For example, refer to... Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the sliding mechanism 2 can shield or avoid obstacles when sliding relative to the main body 1. Figure 2 The lock cylinder hole shown serves to prevent dust or accidental operation. When the lock cylinder hole needs to be used, it can be exposed by sliding the sliding mechanism 2 relative to the main body 1. When the lock cylinder hole is not needed, it can be covered by sliding the sliding mechanism 2 in the opposite direction relative to the main body 1. During the sliding process, the sliding member 210 is only guided by the first slide groove 110 and does not directly contact the first slide groove 110. Instead, it rolls into contact with the first slide groove 110 through the rolling part connected to the rolling mechanism 3 of the sliding mechanism 2, thereby reducing the wear of the sliding mechanism 2 relative to the main body 1.
[0032] Furthermore, the rolling mechanism 3 mentioned in the above embodiments can be any mechanism or component with rolling function. For example, the rolling mechanism 3 can include rolling components such as balls or rollers. The specific structural form of the rolling mechanism 3 will be described in detail below, and will not be elaborated further here.
[0033] In some implementations, reference Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the rolling mechanism 3 includes a ball 310 and a limiting member 320. The ball 310 is located within the first slide groove 110, and the outer wall of the ball 310 forms a rolling portion. The limiting member 320 is connected to the sliding member 210 and includes a groove 321 for accommodating the ball 310. In this way, when the rolling mechanism 3 moves relative to the main body 1 following the sliding mechanism 2, the movement of the sliding mechanism 2 can be achieved by the rolling of the outer wall of the ball 310 relative to the first slide groove 110. Furthermore, during the rolling process of the ball 310, the groove 321 in the limiting member 320 can also limit the ball 310, preventing the ball 310 from moving irregularly within the first slide groove 110 without a preset path, thus affecting the sliding efficiency. This allows the ball 310 to slide along a specified preset path within the first slide groove 110, improving the stability during the sliding process.
[0034] In some implementations, reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the limiting member 320 is square, and there are two grooves 321 located on opposite sides of the square side of the limiting member 320. The number of balls 310 corresponds one-to-one with the number of grooves 321. In this way, by arranging the two grooves 321 and the two balls 310 in a one-to-one correspondence, the stability of the rolling mechanism 3 during the sliding process of the sliding mechanism 2 relative to the main body 1 can be further improved. Figure 3 As shown, the two balls 310 are located on both sides of the square limiting member 320. When the rolling mechanism 3 slides along the first slide groove 110, the design of the double balls can contact both points of the first slide groove 110 respectively. That is, the limiting member 320 can move more smoothly when it follows the rolling of the balls 310.
[0035] It should be noted that the two grooves 321 mentioned in the above embodiment are exemplary. In other embodiments not shown in the figures, the number of grooves 321 can also be other suitable numbers, such as three, four or more, as long as it can improve the stability during the rolling process and the number of grooves 321 corresponds one-to-one with the number of balls 310. This embodiment does not specifically limit the above solution.
[0036] In some implementations, reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the inner wall of the first groove 110 is provided with a first recess 111, and the ball 310 can fit into the first groove 110 or fit into the first recess 111 under the limiting of the limiting member 320. In this way, the first recess 111 can limit the travel distance of the ball 310, that is, as... Figure 2 As shown, Figure 2The first concave point 111 shown represents the maximum distance that the sliding mechanism 2 can move when it slides to completely avoid the lock cylinder hole mentioned in the above embodiment. Figure 2 In the figure, there is also another first concave point 111 in the first groove 110 below the position of the ball 310. At this time, the position of the ball 310 is the position where the sliding mechanism 2 slides to the position where it can completely cover the lock cylinder hole. It can be seen that the first concave point 111 can limit the ball 310 when the sliding mechanism 2 slides to the maximum travel distance at both ends, thereby indirectly limiting the sliding mechanism 2.
[0037] In some implementations, reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the rolling mechanism 3 also includes a clamping member 330 connected to the sliding member 210, with the ball 310 and the limiting member 320 located between the first groove 110 and the clamping member 330. In this way, the clamping member 330 can clamp and limit the limiting member 320 and the ball 310, i.e. Figure 3 As shown, after the ball 310 is placed in the first groove 110 and limited by the cooperation of the limiting member 320, the pressing member 330 can be connected to the sliding member 210, and the limiting member 320 can be pressed by the pressing member 330, so that the ball 310 can be stably limited by the limiting member 320 and slide stably in the groove 321.
[0038] It should be noted that the clamping member 330 mentioned in the above embodiments can be any component capable of clamping the limiting member 320, for example... Figure 3 As shown, the clamping member 330 can be constructed as a clamping screw, wherein the inner end face of the clamping screw near the large head can fit against the surface of the limiting member 320 when connected to the sliding member 210. In this way, the clamping of the limiting member 320 can be achieved simply and efficiently.
[0039] Alternatively, in an embodiment not shown in the figure, the clamping member 330 may also be a structure such as an elastic pressure plate or a cover, as long as it can clamp and limit the limiting member 320, which will not be elaborated further here.
[0040] In some implementations, reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5As shown, the sliding mechanism 2 also includes a sliding cover 220 connected to the sliding member 210. The sliding cover 220 and the rolling mechanism 3 are located on opposite sides of the main body 1. In this way, the sliding cover 220 and the rolling mechanism 3 are located on opposite sides of the main body 1, which can improve the ease of installation of the rolling mechanism 3 and facilitate maintenance or disassembly and replacement of the rolling mechanism 3. Furthermore, the sliding member 210 can be a cylindrical structure passing through the first sliding groove 110, which is easy to process and can improve the smoothness of sliding of the sliding member 210 relative to the first sliding groove 110. The sliding cover 220 can be easily held and slid by personnel to cover or avoid the aforementioned lock cylinder hole, power interface, buttons and other operating modules, so as to cover the operating modules and play a role in dust prevention or preventing misoperation.
[0041] In some implementations, reference Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the sliding cover 220 includes a second sliding groove 221, with second recesses 2211 at both ends of the second sliding groove 221; the main body 1 also includes a mounting groove 120, and the sliding cover structure also includes an elastic member 4 located within the mounting groove 120; the elastic member 4 includes a spring portion 410 and an abutment portion 420, with both ends of the spring portion 410 respectively abutting the mounting groove 120 and the abutment portion 420, and the abutment portion 420 being able to abut against the second sliding groove 221 or against the second recesses 2211 under the external force of the spring portion 410. In this way, the length of the second sliding groove 221 is the maximum stroke of the sliding cover 220, such as... Figure 5 As shown, a second concave point 2211 is provided at each end of the length direction of the second slide groove 221. In this arrangement, when the sliding cover 220 is at the maximum displacement of the covering body 1, under the elastic action of the elastic part 410 in the mounting groove 120, the abutting part 420 will abut against one of the second concave points 2211 to lock and limit the sliding cover 220. Conversely, when the sliding cover 220 is at the maximum displacement of the avoiding body 1, under the elastic action of the elastic part in the mounting groove 120, the abutting part 420 will abut against the other second concave point 2211 to lock and limit the sliding cover 220. Through the above two locking and limiting methods, the sliding cover 220 can maintain a more stable posture when it is in two different positions, covering the body 1 and avoiding the body 1. That is, the sliding cover 220 is less likely to shake after sliding into place, which makes it easier for the operator to operate the operating module on the body 1. Specifically, as shown in the figure Figure 6As shown, in this embodiment, the elastic part 410 can be a helical spring with its two ends connected to the bottom wall of the mounting groove 120 and the abutment part 420 respectively. The abutment part 420 can be a ball connected to the helical spring and capable of being embedded in the second concave point 2211. In this specific construction method, the second concave point 2211 can also be constructed as a groove with the same or similar curvature as the surface of the ball, so as to achieve a structure in which the ball can be embedded in the groove and stably fit together.
[0042] In some implementations, reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, there are two first slide grooves 110, which extend side by side along the main body 1. In this way, the double slide groove design allows the sliding cover 220 to slide more smoothly relative to the main body 1. Correspondingly, there can also be two sliding members 210, which correspond one-to-one with the two first slide grooves 110. That is, the one-to-one arrangement of the sliding members 210 and the first slide grooves 110 improves the stability of the sliding cover 220 during the sliding process.
[0043] In some implementations, reference Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, both sides of the main body 1 are provided with flanges 130, and the length direction of the flanges 130 is parallel to the length direction of the first slide groove 110. The opposite sides of the sliding mechanism 2 are respectively attached to the two flanges 130. In this way, the two flanges 130 can limit the sliding mechanism 2 in the middle position. That is, when both flanges 130 are attached to the opposite sides of the sliding mechanism 2, the sliding mechanism 2 can only slide along the length direction of the flanges 130, further improving the sliding stability of the sliding mechanism 2.
[0044] Although this embodiment has been described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations without departing from the spirit and scope of this invention, and such modifications and variations all fall within the scope defined by this invention.
