[0024] In the following description, if a specific drawing is indicated or shown in a specific drawing, it is only to emphasize that most of the relevant content mentioned in the following description appears in that specific drawing, but does not limit the following description to refer only to that specific drawing.

[0025] Please refer to the following: Figures 1 to 5 , Figures 1 to 3 These are schematic diagrams of the buckle of this utility model from different angles, without the rope being provided. Figure 4 This is an exploded view of the fastener of this utility model. Figure 5 These are schematic diagrams of the operating components of the buckle of this utility model from different perspectives.

[0026] The fastener 100 of this utility model includes: a body 1 and an operating member 2. In one embodiment, the body 1 and the operating member 2 may be made of nylon material, but are not limited thereto. The operating member 2 can be pressed and connected to the body 1. The body 1 includes a receiving groove 11, two first through holes 12 and two second through holes 13. The receiving groove 11 is recessed on one side of the body 1.

[0027] Two first through holes 12 are located at one end of the main body 1. Each first through hole 12 extends through the main body 1. The two first through holes 12 can be arranged side by side, and the two first through holes 12 are not directly connected to each other. The two first through holes 12 are respectively connected to the receiving groove 11.

[0028] Two second through holes 13 are located on both sides of the main body 1, for example, on the left and right sides of the main body 1. Each second through hole 13 penetrates the main body 1 and communicates with the receiving groove 11. The two second through holes 13 are located near the other end of the main body 1, that is, the two first through holes 12 and the two second through holes 13 can be located at the front and rear ends of the main body 1. One of the first through holes 12 and the second through hole 13 are generally on the same axis, and the other through hole 141 and the other second through hole 13 are generally on the same axis.

[0029] The main body 1 also includes a first engaging structure 14, which includes, for example, a through hole 141 and a stop portion 142. The operating member 2 includes a second engaging structure 21, which is, for example, an L-shaped structure. The second engaging structure 21 of the operating member 2 engages with the first engaging structure 14 of the main body 1, and the first engaging structure 14 and the second engaging structure 21 together limit the range of motion of the operating member 2 relative to the main body 1. When the first engaging structure 14 and the second engaging structure 21 engage with each other, a portion of the second engaging structure 21 passes through the through hole 141 of the first engaging structure 14, and a portion of the second engaging structure 21 abuts against the stop portion 142.

[0030] like Figure 4As shown, the main body 1 also has two limiting portions 15, each of which is disposed adjacent to each of the first through holes 12. Each limiting portion 15 may be a structure protruding from the bottom of the receiving groove 11 and is disposed between the first through hole 12 and the second through hole 13 on the same axis.

[0031] The operating member 2 is movably disposed on one side of the body 1 having the receiving groove 11. The operating member 2 includes an operating part 22, a flexible arm 23, and two channel structures 24. One side of the operating member 2 is an operating surface 221, which is used to provide a user with a pressing surface. The operating surface 221 may be, for example, an arc-shaped surface. The other side of the operating member 2 is connected to one end of the flexible arm 23, and the other end of the flexible arm 23 is a free end.

[0032] The end of the operating member 2 connected to the elastic arm 23 also has two channel structures 24. The two channel structures 24 are arranged side by side with a gap between them, and a receiving groove 25 is formed between the two channel structures 24. The end of the elastic arm 23 connected to the operating part 22 is arranged adjacent to the receiving groove 25.

[0033] Each channel structure 24 is a hollow structure, and a channel 241 is formed inside each channel structure 24. The channel 241 runs through the channel structure 24. The shape of the channel structure 24 and the channel 241 inside it can be designed according to actual needs and is not limited to what is shown in the figure.

[0034] The connection between the elastic arm 23 and the operating part 22, as well as the second engaging structure 21, can be located at one end of the operating member 2. The two channel structures 24 and the free end of the elastic arm 23 are located at the other end of the operating member 2.

[0035] At the end of each channel structure 24, a stop structure 26 is provided. The stop structure 26 is provided, for example, protruding from the channel structure 24, and the stop structure 26 may be located approximately in the opening 2411 of the channel 241.

[0036] Please refer to the following: Figure 1 , Figures 6 to 10 , Figure 6 The fastener of this utility model Figure 1 The cross-sectional diagram shown is a cross-sectional view of section line VI-VI. Figure 7 The fastener of this utility model Figure 1 The schematic diagram of the cross-section line VII-VII shown. Figure 8 This is a schematic diagram of the buckle of this utility model in the unlocked state. Figure 9 This is another cross-sectional view of the buckle of this utility model when it is in the unlocked state. Figure 10 This is a cross-sectional view of the buckle of this utility model in the engaged state, with a rope provided in the buckle.

[0037] like Figure 1 , Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, when the buckle 100 is not equipped with the rope 3, and the buckle 100 is in use, each stop structure 26 will abut against the top wall 121 forming the first through hole 12. At this time, the elastic arm 23 may be in a slightly compressed state, and a part of the operating part 22 may protrude slightly from the body 1. Figure 7 As shown, when the buckle 100 is not equipped with the rope 3 and the user does not press the operating part 22, the opening 2411 of the channel 241 is misaligned with the first through hole 12, and the channel 241 is basically not connected to the first through hole 12.

[0038] like Figures 6 to 9 As shown, when the user wants to thread the rope 3 into the buckle 100, the user can press the operating surface 221 to move the operating part 22 of the operating member 2 closer to the body 1, and the operating member 2 of the buckle 100 will then move from the operating surface 221 to the operating part 22 of the operating member 2 closer to the body 1. Figure 1 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 The shown engaged state is converted to Figure 8 and Figure 9 The unlocked state is shown. Buckle 100 is... Figure 8 and Figure 9 In the state shown, the elastic arm 23 will undergo significant elastic deformation, and the channel structure 24 will be located between the limiting part 15 of the body 1 and the first through hole 12. The bottom of the channel structure 24 will abut against the bottom of the body 1. The first through hole 12 and the opening 2411 of the channel 241 are roughly correspondingly set. At this time, relevant personnel can insert the rope 3 through the first through hole 12 to enter the channel 241, and the rope 3 can follow the channel 241 and exit the body 1 through the second through hole 13.

[0039] like Figure 9 As shown, in one embodiment, the body 1 may also have a guide surface 16 around each of the second perforations 13. The guide surface 16 is used to guide the rope 3, which passes through the first perforation 12, the channel 241, and the second perforation 13, to exit in a direction away from the operating member 2. That is, when the assembly personnel are installing the rope 3 into the buckle 100, after the personnel insert the rope 3 through the first perforation 12, they only need to push the rope 3, and the rope 3 can move along the channel 241 and be guided by the guide surface 16, and finally exit through the second perforation 13.

[0040] Based on the above, as Figure 7 and Figure 9As shown, when a person wishes to thread the rope 3 into the buckle 100, they only need to press the operating part 22 to thread one end of the rope 3 through the first through hole 12 into the buckle 100. After the user has threaded the rope 3 through the first through hole 12, they only need to push the rope 3, and the rope 3 will follow the guidance of the channel 241 and the guide surface 16 to exit through the second through hole 13.

[0041] like Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, when the buckle 100 is threaded with the rope 3 and the user no longer presses the operating part 22, the operating part 22 will be subjected to the elastic arm 23 (as shown). Figure 8 The rope 3 moves away from the body 1 due to the elastic restoring force (as shown). The channel structure 24, the stop structure 26, and the side wall forming the first perforation 12 will jointly hold the rope 3. At this time, the rope 3 will be held by the buckle 100 and cannot move relative to the buckle 100. The operating part 22 protrudes slightly from the body 1.

[0042] In other words, such as Figure 10 As shown, when the rope 3 is threaded through the buckle 100 and the buckle 100 is in a locked state, if the operating part 22 is not pressed, the rope 3 will be held by the buckle 100, and the rope 3 will be difficult to move relative to the body 1 without strong external force.

[0043] Following on from above, relatively speaking, such as Figure 10 and Figure 9 As shown, when the user wants to adjust the position of the buckle 100 relative to the rope 3, the user can press the operating part 22 to adjust the elastic arm 23 (as shown). Figure 8 The deformation (as shown) connects the channel 241 to the first through hole 12, allowing the user to move the buckle 100 from... Figure 9 The shown engaged state is converted to Figure 10 The unlocked state is shown, allowing the buckle 100 and the rope 3 to move relative to each other. In other words, in practice, when a user wants to adjust the position of the buckle 100, they can directly press the operating part 22, thereby allowing the buckle 100 to move relative to the rope 3.

[0044] It is worth mentioning that, such as Figure 9As shown, in one embodiment, when the operating member 2 is in the unlocked state, each channel structure 24 will abut against a bottom surface 1A of the body 1, and the top wall 121 of the first perforation 12 and the top wall 2412 of the rope channel 241 can be substantially flush, and the bottom wall 2413 of the rope channel 241 and the top wall 151 of the limiting part 15 can be substantially flush. The side walls 122 of the first perforation 12, the side walls 2414 of the rope channel 241 and the side walls 131 of the second perforation 13 can be substantially flush, and the gap SP between the operating member 2 and the body 1 near the end of the first perforation 12 is smaller than the outer diameter of the rope 3. With this design, when the assembly personnel insert the rope 3 into the first perforation 12, the channel 241 and the second perforation 13, the rope 3 will basically only move along the channel 241, and the rope 3 will not enter the space where the elastic arm 23 is located.

[0045] It is worth mentioning that the buckle 100 of the present invention can be combined with a rope 3 to form a buckle assembly, and the buckle 100 and the rope 3 can be sold and implemented together.

[0046] In summary, the buckle and buckle assembly of this utility model, through the design of the operating component and the main body, allows the user to simply press the operating component to remove the rope from its restraint, thus enabling the buckle and rope to move freely; when the user moves the buckle to the desired position, the user can stop pressing the operating component to allow the buckle to hold the rope again.

[0047] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. Therefore, all equivalent technical changes made based on the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings are included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
