[0040] Wireless positioning devices 3, such as AirTag, are widely used for tracking personal items, pets, and children due to their small size and portability. Users typically attach them to the target object using keychains, lanyards, pins 22, or other components. However, due to the small size of the device, an additional protective case is required to ensure secure installation. Existing protective cases have pin structures directly exposed on the outside of the casing 1, increasing the overall thickness of the protective device. Furthermore, the exposed pin structure has sharp ends, posing a risk of scratches, punctures, and other safety hazards, reducing the safety of the protective device and impacting the user experience. Therefore, reducing the thickness of the protective case and improving its security are crucial for enhancing both the safety and convenience of the device.

[0041] To address this issue, this utility model provides a protective device for a wireless positioning device, which solves the problem that the existing protective devices for wireless positioning devices 3 are too thick and have low security. By providing an installation groove 11 and a fixing groove 12 on the housing 1, the installation groove 11 is used to accommodate the wireless positioning device 3, and the fixing groove 12 is used to install the pin assembly 2, so that the pin assembly 2 is completely within the fixing groove 12, the pin assembly 2 and the wireless positioning device 3 do not interfere with each other, the pin assembly 2 is not exposed outside the housing 1, the thickness of the protective device is reduced, and its security is improved.

[0042] To better understand the above technical solutions, the following will provide a detailed explanation of the technical solutions in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0043] Please see Figures 1a-6 This utility model embodiment demonstrates a wireless positioning device protection device, including: a housing 1 and a pin assembly 2. The housing 1 is provided with a mounting groove 11 and a fixing groove 12. The mounting groove 11 is used to accommodate the wireless positioning device 3, and the fixing groove 12 is formed by a recess inward from one side of the housing 1. The pin assembly 2 is installed in the fixing groove 12 and is used to connect the housing 1 and other objects.

[0044] Specifically, refer to Figures 1a-6 In this embodiment, the wireless positioning device 3 can be an Airtag. The housing 1 and the pin assembly 2 constitute the protective shell of the Airtag. The wireless positioning device protective device can be attached to a target object, enabling the wireless positioning device 3 to obtain the location of the target object. The housing 1 is used to protect the wireless positioning device 3. In use, the housing 1 is fitted over the outside of the wireless positioning device 3 to protect it and prevent it from being bumped or knocked. The pin assembly 2 is used to connect the housing 1 to other objects. That is, the housing 1 can be attached to the target object through the pin assembly 2. For example, the protective device containing the wireless positioning device 3 can be clipped into the target object's clothing, bag, or other objects through the pin assembly 2, thereby facilitating the carrying of the wireless positioning device 3.

[0045] The housing 1 is provided with a mounting groove 11 and a fixing groove 12. The mounting groove 11 is used to accommodate the wireless positioning device 3, thereby assembling the wireless positioning device 3 onto the housing 1. The fixing groove 12 is used to assemble the pin assembly 2. The fixing groove 12 is formed by a recess inward from one side of the housing 1, that is, the opening 112 of the fixing groove 12 connects the fixing groove 12 and the outside of the housing 1, so that the pin assembly 2 can be connected to other objects. The pin assembly 2 is installed in the fixing groove 12, so that the pin assembly 2 is completely located inside the housing 1, avoiding the pin assembly 2 being exposed outside the housing 1, thereby improving the safety of the wireless positioning device protection device and preventing the pin assembly 2 from scratching or snagging the target object. At the same time, the fact that the pin assembly 2 is located inside the housing 1 can also reduce the thickness of the wireless positioning device protection device and prevent the pin assembly 2 from protruding from the housing 1, thereby improving the portability of the wireless positioning device protection device.

[0046] In use, by opening the pin 22 on the pin assembly 2, the pin 22 is clipped into the clothing or other objects of the target object, and then the pin 22 is closed, thereby connecting the wireless positioning device protection device with other objects, so that the wireless positioning device 3 can be conveniently worn on the target object.

[0047] Therefore, in this embodiment, by providing the mounting groove 11 and the fixing groove 12 on the housing 1 of the wireless positioning device protection device, the wireless positioning device 3 is installed in the mounting groove 11, and the pin assembly 2 is installed in the fixing groove 12. The housing 1 and other objects are connected through the pin assembly 2, thus achieving convenient wearing of the wireless positioning device 3. The pin assembly 2 is completely installed in the fixing groove 12, avoiding the pin assembly 2 being exposed outside the housing 1, reducing the thickness of the wireless positioning device protection device and improving the safety of the wireless positioning device protection device.

[0048] Meanwhile, the pin assembly 2 is installed in the fixing groove 12, so that the pin assembly 2 is not exposed or protruding from the surface of the housing 1, making the side of the housing 1 that contacts the target object a horizontal plane. This makes the wireless positioning device protection device fit more closely to the surface of the target object when it is attached, improving the stability of the wireless positioning device protection device after attachment and the user's comfort.

[0049] More specifically, the pin 22 on the pin assembly 2 can be any type of pin 22, as long as it can be hooked onto other objects, and there is no limitation here.

[0050] More specifically, the pin assembly 2 may be an integral or separate structure from the housing 1, and no limitation is made here.

[0051] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figures 2a-2b , Figure 5 The housing 1 is also provided with a slot 13 that communicates with the fixing groove 12. The slot 13 is formed by the groove wall of the fixing groove 12 being recessed in a direction away from the fixing groove 12. The slot 13 is engaged with the pin assembly 2. Specifically, the housing 1 is further provided with a slot 13, which is used to engage with the pin assembly 2, thereby connecting the housing 1 and the pin assembly 2. The slot 13 is interconnected with the fixing groove 12. The slot 13 is formed by the groove wall of the fixing groove 12 being recessed away from the fixing groove 12. The position of the slot 13 can be located in the middle or bottom of the fixing groove 12 (the bottom refers to the side of the fixing groove 12 opposite to its opening 112). The width of the slot 13 is smaller than the width of the fixing groove 12, thereby facilitating the engagement of the slot 13 with the pin assembly 2. When the pin assembly 2 is installed onto the fixing groove 12, the pin assembly 2 is moved into the fixing groove 12 and engaged with the slot 13, thereby assembling the pin assembly 2 with the housing 1.

[0052] In this embodiment, the pin assembly 2 is engaged with the slot 13 in the fixing groove 12 by setting the slot 13 on the housing 1, thereby achieving a fixed connection between the pin assembly 2 and the housing 1. This assembly method is simple, the structure is simple, and the production cost is low.

[0053] More specifically, the slot 13 can be provided by extending from one side of the side wall of the fixing groove 12 away from the fixing groove 12, or it can be provided by extending from the bottom wall of the fixing groove 12 away from the fixing groove 12. The side wall refers to the side walls of the four sides of the fixing groove 12 (up, down, left, right), and the bottom wall refers to the groove wall of the fixing groove 12 on the side opposite to its opening 112, which is not limited here.

[0054] In a specific embodiment, refer to Figures 2a-2b , Figure 5The housing 1 is provided with two slots 13, which are positioned opposite each other on both sides of the fixing groove 12, and each slot 13 engages with the side edges of the pin assembly 2. Specifically, the housing 1 is provided with two slots 13, which are positioned opposite each other, that is, the two slots 13 are located on both sides of the fixing groove 12. If one slot 13 is located on the upper side of the fixing groove 12, then the other slot 13 is located on the lower side of the fixing groove 12; if one slot 13 is located on the left side of the fixing groove 12, then the other slot 13 is located on the right side of the fixing groove 12. At this time, the two slots 13 extend from both sides of the fixing groove 12 in opposite directions. If the two slots 13 are located on the upper and lower sides of the fixing groove 12, the upper slot 13 is formed by extending upward from the end connected to the fixing groove 12, and the lower slot 13 is formed by extending downward from the end connected to the fixing groove 12. In this case, the two slots 13 extend in opposite directions. If the two slots 13 are located on the left and right sides of the fixing groove 12, the left slot 13 is formed by extending to the left from the end connected to the fixing groove 12, and the right slot 13 extends to the right from the end connected to the fixing groove 12. In this case, the two slots 13 extend in opposite directions. At this time, the two slots 13 engage with the two side edges of the pin assembly 2, thereby achieving a fixed connection between the housing 1 and the pin assembly 2.

[0055] In this embodiment, the pin assembly 2 is engaged with the opposite sides of the pin assembly 2 by two oppositely arranged slots 13, so as to improve the stability and fixation of the pin assembly 2 by the slots 13, avoid the pin assembly 2 from shaking or becoming unstable in the fixing slot 12, and improve the structural stability of the wireless positioning device protection device.

[0056] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figures 2a-2b The slot 13 is disposed around the periphery of the fixing groove 12, and the slot 13 engages with the edge of the pin assembly 2. Specifically, the slot 13 is disposed around the periphery of the fixing groove 12, so that the four sides of the fixing groove 12 are provided with the slot 13, and the slot 13 is connected to the fixing groove 12. When the pin assembly 2 is installed into the fixing groove 12, the four edges of the pin assembly 2 are engaged by the slot 13, so that the edges of the pin assembly 2 are engaged by the slot 13 along its periphery, thereby further improving the connection stability and fixation of the housing 1 and the pin assembly 2, and the structural stability of the wireless positioning device protection device is higher.

[0057] More specifically, the slot 13 can also be provided on the bottom wall of the fixing groove 12 and formed by the inward indentation of the bottom wall. In this case, the slot 13 can engage with the protrusion of the pin assembly 2 to realize the assembly of the pin assembly 2 and the housing 1 for easy assembly.

[0058] In a specific embodiment, the width of the fixing groove 12 is L1, and the distance from the top of the slot 13 on the upper side of the fixing groove 12 to the bottom of the slot 13 on the lower side of the fixing groove 12 is L2. L1 and L2 satisfy: 10% < L1 / L2 < 88%. Specifically, the width of the fixing groove 12 is L1, that is, the distance from the upper end to the lower end of the fixing groove 12 is L1. The distance from the top of the slot 13 on the upper side of the fixing groove 12 to the bottom of the slot 13 on the lower side of the fixing groove 12 is L2. That is, the fixing groove 12 is provided with slots 13 on both the upper and lower sides. The slot 13 on the upper side of the fixing groove 12 extends upward and the slot 13 on the lower side of the fixing groove 12 extends downward. The slots 13 are all connected to the fixing groove 12. At this time, the distance between the top of the upper slot 13 and the bottom of the lower slot 13 is L2. In order to achieve better locking of the pin assembly 2, L1 and L2 need to satisfy 10% < L1 / L2 < 88%. At this time, the slot 13 can stably lock the pin assembly 2.

[0059] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 5 The mounting groove 11 includes a mounting cavity 111 and an opening 112. The mounting cavity 111 is located inside the housing 1, and the opening 112 connects the mounting cavity 111 and the outside of the housing 1. Specifically, the mounting groove 11 includes a mounting cavity 111 and an opening 112. Both the mounting cavity 111 and the opening 112 are connected to the wireless positioning device 3. The mounting cavity 111 is located inside the housing 1 and is the main body of the mounting groove 11. Its size and shape are precisely adapted to the shape of the wireless positioning device 3 to accommodate and limit the wireless positioning device 3, preventing the device from shifting within the housing 1. This allows for better installation of the wireless positioning device 3 and improves the protection of the wireless positioning device 3 by the housing 1. The opening 112 extends recessedly from one side of the housing 1 toward the mounting cavity 111, thereby connecting the mounting cavity 111 and the external space of the housing 1. It serves as both a channel for the wireless positioning device 3 to be installed in the mounting cavity 111 and a means for signal transmission or operational interaction between the device and the outside.

[0060] During the assembly of the wireless positioning device 3 and the protective device, the wireless positioning device 3 is gradually pushed into the mounting cavity 111 through the opening 112 until the device is completely inside the mounting cavity 111. At this point, the device and the mounting cavity 111 form a stable connection, and the mounting cavity 111 provides both radial and axial limiting for the device. Meanwhile, the opening 112 remains in communication with the mounting cavity 111 and the outside of the housing 1, thus completing the installation and fixation of the device without affecting the device's wireless signal interaction with the outside through the opening 112, ensuring the normal operation of the device's positioning function. The overall structural design of the mounting groove 11 achieves a reliable connection between the wireless positioning device 3 and the housing 1, while also considering the ease of installation and functional integrity of the device.

[0061] More specifically, both the mounting cavity 111 and the opening 112 are annular structures, which makes the mounting cavity 111 and the opening 112 fit the shape and structure of the wireless positioning device 3 more closely. The mounting cavity 111 and the opening 112 are assembled and connected with the wireless positioning device 3 through an interference fit, which improves installation efficiency and reduces costs.

[0062] More specifically, the diameter of the opening 112 is smaller than the diameter of the mounting cavity 111, so that the portion of the wireless positioning device 3 located in the mounting cavity 111 is engaged within the mounting cavity 111, further improving the connection stability and tightness between the mounting groove 11 and the wireless positioning device 3, and reducing the risk of the wireless positioning device 3 detaching from the wireless positioning device protection device.

[0063] In one embodiment, the area S1 of the opening 112 and the area S2 of the mounting cavity 111 satisfy the following condition: 10% < S1 / S2 < 93%. Specifically, the area S1 of the opening 112 refers to the cross-sectional area S1 at the opening 112 of the mounting groove 11, which is a parameter measuring the size of the passage for the device to enter and exit the mounting cavity 111, and directly affects the ease of placing and removing the wireless positioning device 3; the area S2 of the mounting cavity 111 refers to the area of ​​the internal cross-section of the mounting cavity 111, reflecting the size of the space to accommodate the wireless positioning device 3, and needs to match the external dimensions of the device to ensure installation stability. Both the opening 112 of the mounting groove 11 and the mounting cavity 111 are processed according to a preset shape (such as a circle or rectangle), and their area parameters are strictly set according to the ratio of 10% < S1 / S2 < 93% to balance the reasonable range of installation convenience and fixed reliability of the wireless positioning device 3.

[0064] The design of the ratio of S1 to S2 in this embodiment avoids both situations where the opening 112 is too large, causing the wireless positioning device 3 to easily detach from the mounting cavity 111 (e.g., when S1 / S2 ≥ 93%, the opening 112 is close to the size of the mounting cavity 111, weakening the limiting effect) and situations where the opening 112 is too small, making the installation of the wireless positioning device 3 difficult (e.g., when S1 / S2 ≤ 10%, the opening 112 is too narrow, which may prevent the wireless positioning device 3 from being installed smoothly). At the same time, a reasonable area ratio ensures the mounting cavity 111's ability to enclose the wireless positioning device 3, reducing the impact of external impacts on the device, thus balancing structural practicality and device protection.

[0065] In a specific embodiment, the radius R1 of the opening 112 and the radius R2 of the mounting cavity 111 satisfy the condition: 20% < R1 / R2 < 90%. Specifically, both the opening 112 and the mounting cavity 111 of the mounting groove 11 adopt a circular structure design. The radius R1 of the opening 112 is smaller than the radius R2 of the mounting cavity 111, and it needs to satisfy 20% < R1 / R2 < 90%. This proportional design avoids the wireless positioning device 3 from easily falling off the mounting cavity 111 due to an excessively large R1 (e.g., when R1 / R2 ≥ 90%, the opening 112 is close to the size of the mounting cavity 111, and the limiting effect is weakened), and also prevents the device from being difficult to install due to an excessively small R1 (e.g., when R1 / R2 ≤ 20%, the opening 112 is too narrow, and the device may not be able to enter smoothly). Ultimately, it achieves a balance between installation convenience and fixed reliability, thereby achieving a precise fit between the opening 112 and the mounting cavity 111 and improving the structural stability of the housing 1.

[0066] More specifically, when the wireless positioning device 3 needs to be frequently picked up and put down, a larger ratio of 70%-90% can be selected for R1 / R2 to reduce the resistance to the device entering and exiting; when the wireless positioning device 3 needs to be fixed for a long time, the ratio can be controlled at 20%-50% to enhance the limiting effect on the device by reducing the size of the opening 112. At the same time, the edge of the opening 112 needs to smoothly transition with the inner wall of the mounting cavity 111 to avoid the formation of a step structure due to a sudden change in radius, ensuring that the wireless positioning device 3 is not obstructed during the pushing or taking out process.

[0067] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figures 1a to 5The opening 112 of the mounting groove 11 and the opening of the fixing groove 12 are located on opposite sides of the housing 1. Specifically, the mounting groove 11 and the fixing groove 12 are pre-formed during the manufacturing process of the housing 1, with their openings located on opposite sides of the housing 1. The mounting groove 11 is designed according to the specifications of the wireless positioning device 3, with its opening 112 formed on one side surface of the housing 1. The internal mounting cavity 111 communicates with the opening 112, used to accommodate the wireless positioning device 3 and to allow for the placement and removal of the wireless positioning device 3 through the opening 112. The fixing groove 12 is formed on the opposite side surface of the housing 1, opposite to the opening 112 of the mounting groove 11, and is used to install the pin assembly 2.

[0068] The positioning design of the mounting slot 11 and the fixing slot 12 ensures that they are distributed in opposite directions on the housing 1, avoiding mutual space occupation or interference with their respective functions. The mounting slot 11 is focused on accommodating and fixing the device, while the fixing slot 12 is focused on installing the pin assembly 2. Furthermore, because their openings face opposite directions, the impact of external factors on their internal structures is reduced. This layout optimizes the space utilization efficiency of the housing 1 and ensures the functional independence of the mounting slot 11 and the fixing slot 12 through a separate design, allowing the fixing and protection functions of the wireless positioning device 3 to be achieved collaboratively.

[0069] In a specific embodiment, refer to Figures 1a-5 The fixing groove 12 is located at the top of the housing 1, and the mounting groove 11 is located below the fixing groove 12. Specifically, the fixing groove 12 is located at the top of the housing 1, and the mounting groove 11 is located below the fixing groove 12. The two form a vertically distributed spatial structure inside the housing 1. This vertical layout makes vertical use of the space of the housing 1. The fixing groove 12 and the mounting groove 11 each perform their functions independently: the fixing groove 12, located at the top, facilitates fixing the housing 1 to external objects, while the mounting groove 11 securely accommodates the wireless positioning device 3 below. The two form an organic whole through the structure of the housing 1, which not only ensures the ease of operation of the pin assembly 2, but also ensures the installation stability of the wireless positioning device 3, while avoiding space waste caused by structural overlap, thereby further reducing the thickness of the wireless positioning device protection device.

[0070] More specifically, the orientation of the opening 112 of the mounting groove 11 and the opening 112 of the fixing groove 12 can be designed according to usage requirements (e.g., the opening 112 of the fixing groove 12 faces upward to facilitate the operation of the pin 22, and the opening 112 of the mounting groove 11 faces downward or to the side to facilitate the removal and placement of the device), but the vertical positional relationship between the two remains fixed.

[0071] More specifically, a shell 1 wall of a certain thickness is maintained between the mounting groove 11 and the fixing groove 12 to avoid structural interference and enhance the overall strength.

[0072] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figures 1a-5 The top of the fixing groove 12 is provided with a clearance opening 121, which connects the interior of the fixing groove 12 with the outside. Specifically, the top of the fixing groove 12 is provided with a clearance opening 121, which extends upward from the upper groove wall of the fixing groove 12, thereby connecting the fixing groove 12 and the external space of the housing 1. The clearance opening 121 is used to connect the interior of the fixing groove 12 with the outside, providing operating space or movement channel for the movable part of the pin assembly 2.

[0073] The position of the clearance opening 121 corresponds to the movable end of the pin assembly 2 in the fixing groove 12, ensuring that the movable part of the pin assembly 2 (such as the tip of the pin 22 or the pressing part) can extend out of the fixing groove 12 through the clearance opening 121 or complete rotation, extension and retraction and other actions in the groove.

[0074] When the pin assembly 2 is installed in the fixing groove 12, its fixed end is connected to the fixing groove 12 through a buckle or shaft structure in the groove, while the movable end corresponds to the position of the clearance opening 121. When using the pin assembly 2 to fix the housing 1, the user can operate the movable end of the pin assembly 2 through the clearance opening 121 (such as pressing or flipping) to make the pin assembly 2 extend out of the fixing groove 12 and pass through external items (such as clothing or backpack straps). After fixing, the movable end is retracted into the fixing groove 12. At this time, the clearance opening 121 allows the movable end to partially or completely enter the groove, reducing the exposed area.

[0075] The clearance opening 121 not only ensures the storage requirements of the pin assembly 2 within the fixing slot 12, but also, through its structural characteristics that connect the inside and outside, allows the operation of the pin assembly 2 to be unrestricted by the enclosed space of the fixing slot 12. At the same time, it avoids safety issues and increased thickness issues caused by the complete exposure of the pin assembly 2, thus achieving a balance between structural compactness and ease of use.

[0076] In a specific embodiment, the pin assembly 2 and the housing 1 are separate structures. Specifically, the pin assembly 2 and the housing 1 are not integrally formed. The pin assembly 2 and the housing 1 are independently processed according to preset specifications. After independent processing, the pin assembly 2 and the housing 1 are combined through an assembly process: the connecting end of the pin assembly 2 is aligned with the adapter structure in the fixing groove 12 of the housing 1, and the two are detachably or non-detachably connected by snapping through the slot 13 (the specific connection is determined according to design requirements). After assembly, the pin assembly 2 can move within the fixing groove 12 along a preset trajectory, realizing the function of "extending and fixing - retracting and storing". The housing 1 provides stable support and protection for the pin assembly 2. Although the two are manufactured separately, they can work together to achieve the external fixing requirements of the housing 1.

[0077] This split-structure design allows the pin assembly 2 and the housing 1 to be made of different materials (e.g., the pin assembly 2 is made of metal to enhance strength, and the housing 1 is made of plastic to reduce weight). It also allows for the optimization of the processing technology of each component (e.g., the pin assembly 2 is precision stamped, and the housing 1 is injection molded). Furthermore, it facilitates subsequent maintenance. If the pin assembly 2 is damaged, it can be replaced separately without replacing the entire housing 1, thus improving the practicality and economy of the structure.

[0078] In one embodiment, the housing 1 is made of a soft material at the location where the fixing groove 12 is set. Specifically, the soft material refers to a material with a certain elasticity, flexibility, and deformation capability (such as silicone, TPU thermoplastic polyurethane, soft PVC, etc.), which can undergo moderate deformation under force and return to its original shape after the force is released. It also has good wear resistance and anti-aging properties, making it suitable for structures that require cushioning or adaptation of moving parts. By making the housing 1 of the location where the fixing groove 12 is set of a soft material, the groove wall of the soft material can deform moderately when the pin assembly 2 is installed into the fixing groove 12, reducing assembly difficulty. At the same time, the rebound force generated by the deformation can tightly wrap the pin assembly 2, reducing loosening. When the pin assembly 2 moves (such as extending or retracting), the soft material can avoid rigid friction between the pin 22 and the groove, reducing wear, and can reduce the feeling of jamming when the pin assembly 2 is operated through elastic cushioning. In addition, the soft material can improve the tactile feel of the fixing groove 12 area, avoid the sharp feeling that hard materials may bring, and at the same time provide a certain buffer protection for the pin assembly 2 when the housing 1 is subjected to slight impact, taking into account both practicality and user experience.

[0079] More specifically, the housing 1 adopts a "locally differentiated material" design, that is, soft material is used only at the location where the fixing groove 12 is set, while other areas maintain a hard material structure, in order to reduce production costs.

[0080] In another embodiment, the housing 1 is a soft structure, that is, the entire housing 1 is a soft structure, which facilitates the installation and removal of the pin assembly 2 and the wireless positioning device 3, while increasing the feel and wear resistance of the wireless positioning device protection device, and also improving the degree of protection of the wireless positioning device 3 by the protection device.

[0081] In one embodiment, the pin assembly 2 and the housing 1 are an integral structure. Specifically, the pin assembly 2 and the housing 1 are formed into an inseparable whole using the same processing technology. Insert injection molding or all-plastic molding processes can be used to process the pin assembly 2 and the housing 1. This integral structure eliminates the need for subsequent assembly processes, avoiding the loosening problems caused by assembly gaps in split structures. It also improves the connection strength between the pin assembly 2 and the housing 1, reducing the risk of detachment during long-term use. Furthermore, the gapless design reduces the probability of impurities entering the housing 1, providing more comprehensive protection for the wireless positioning device 3, while simplifying the production process and improving overall production efficiency.

[0082] In a specific embodiment, refer to Figures 2a-3 , Figure 6 The pin assembly 2 includes a mounting base 21 and a pin 22. The mounting base 21 is fixedly connected to the housing 1. One end of the pin 22 is fixedly connected to the mounting base 21, and the other end is detachably connected to the mounting base 21. Specifically, the pin assembly 2 includes a mounting base 21 and a pin 22. The mounting base 21 is the basic component of the pin assembly 2, used to connect the housing 1 and the pin 22. It is usually a sheet-like or block-like structure, with a structure for fixing to the housing 1 and a connection point for connecting to the pin 22, serving a load-bearing and positioning function. The pin 22 is the movable component of the pin assembly 2, is strip-shaped, with one end fixed to the mounting base 21, and the other end detachable from or connected to the mounting base 21, achieving fixation by passing through an external object.

[0083] One side of the mounting base 21 is fixedly connected to the housing 1. In this embodiment, one side of the mounting base 21 is fixedly connected to the bottom wall of the fixing groove 12, where the bottom wall refers to the side wall of the fixing groove 12 opposite to its opening 112. The pin 22 is made of metal or high-strength plastic with a certain elasticity. One end of the pin 22 is fixedly connected to one end of the mounting base 21 by riveting, welding or integral molding to form a fixed end that cannot be moved. The other end of the pin 22 is a needle end 222. A buckle is provided on the mounting base 21 at the corresponding position so that the needle end 222 can be detachably connected to the mounting base 21.

[0084] When it is necessary to fix the housing 1, operate the needle end 222 of the pin 22 to separate it from the mounting base 21. The pin 22 rotates around the fixed end as an axis. After the needle body passes through an external item (such as clothing or a backpack strap), press the needle end 222 back into the buckle of the mounting base 21, and fix it by locking the buckle. When disassembling, apply external force to disengage the needle end 222 of the pin 22 from the buckle, and rotate the pin 22 to remove the housing 1. The fixed connection between the mounting base 21 and the housing 1 ensures the overall stability of the pin assembly 2. The fixed-detachable combination design of the two ends of the pin 22 with the mounting base 21 achieves both the reliability of the fixing function and the convenience of operation, allowing the housing 1 to quickly connect and disconnect from external items.

[0085] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figures 2a-3 , Figure 6 The mounting base 21 includes a fixing plate 211 and a mounting seat 212. The fixing plate 211 is fixedly connected to the housing 1, and the mounting seat 212 is fixedly mounted on the fixing plate 211. One end of the mounting seat 212 is fixedly connected to one end of the pin 22, and the other end of the mounting seat 212 is detachably connected to the other end of the pin 22. Specifically, the mounting base 21 includes a fixing plate 211 and a mounting seat 212. The fixing plate 211 is the basic component of the mounting base 21, and is sheet-like or block-like. It directly contacts and fixes the housing 1, and needs to have a certain structural strength to bear the weight of the mounting seat 212 and the pin 22, as well as external forces during use, to ensure overall connection stability. The mounting seat 212 is the functional component of the mounting base 21, fixed on the fixing plate 211, and is specifically used to connect the pin 22. Its two ends are designed with a fixing structure and a detachable structure adapted to the pin 22, respectively, and are the key parts for the pin 22 to achieve the functions of fixing and moving.

[0086] The fixing plate 211 is fixedly connected to the housing 1. In this embodiment, the fixing plate 211 and the housing 1 are fixed by engaging the edge of the fixing plate 211 through the slot 13. One side of the fixing plate 211 abuts against the bottom wall of the fixing slot 12. The mounting base 212 is fixedly mounted on the other side of the fixing plate 211, and one end of the mounting base 212 is fixedly connected to one end of the pin 22. The other end of the mounting base 212 is detachably connected to the other end of the pin 22. When the pin 22 is needed to fix the housing 1, an external force is applied to the needle end 222 of the pin 22 to disengage it from the locking structure of the detachable end of the mounting base 212. The pin 22 rotates around the fixed end as an axis. After the needle body passes through the external object, the needle end 222 is aligned with the detachable end of the mounting base 212 and pressure is applied. Locking is completed by snap-fit, magnetic adsorption, etc., thus fixing the housing 1 to the external object. Disassembly is performed by reversing the operation.

[0087] In the entire structure, the fixing plate 211 is responsible for connecting and fixing the housing 1, and the mounting base 212 is focused on the installation and movement limit of the pin 22. The two work together to achieve stable installation and flexible use of the pin assembly 2, while ensuring the reliability of the pin 22 when it is fixed and the convenience of operation.

[0088] In a specific embodiment, refer to Figure 6 The fixing plate 211 is provided with a fixing buckle 2111, and the mounting base 212 is provided with a through hole 2121. The through hole 2121 and the fixing buckle 2111 are engaged and fixed. Specifically, the fixing plate 211 is provided with a fixing buckle 2111, which is located on one side of the fixing plate 211 and is a protruding structure with a certain elasticity. It can deform under external force and engage with the through hole 2121 through its own rebound, so as to achieve detachable fixing. The mounting base 212 is provided with a through hole 2121, which is opened on the mounting base 212. The shape and size of the through hole 2121 are adapted to the fixing buckle 2111 to accommodate the fixing buckle 2111 and limit it through the hole wall to prevent the fixing buckle 2111 from falling off, so as to fix the mounting base 212 and the fixing plate 211.

[0089] During assembly, the mounting base 212 is aligned with the preset position of the fixing plate 211, so that the through hole 2121 is directly opposite the fixing buckle 2111. Pressure is applied to push the mounting base 212 towards the fixing plate 211. At this time, the fixing buckle 2111 undergoes elastic deformation due to the squeezing of the slot of the through hole 2121, allowing the fixing buckle 2111 to enter the through hole 2121. When the fixing buckle 2111 is fully embedded in the through hole 2121, the fixing buckle 2111 returns to its original shape under elastic action, and its end fits against the limiting surface of the through hole 2121 to form an axial limit. At the same time, the two side walls of the through hole 2121 restrict the lateral movement of the fixing buckle 2111, so that the mounting base 212 and the fixing plate 211 are firmly connected by snap-fit.

[0090] If disassembly is required, a reverse pulling force is applied to the mounting base 212, and at the same time, the fixing buckle 2111 is deformed again by the pressure of the limiting surface of the through hole 2121, and disengages from the through hole 2121, thus separating the two.

[0091] This snap-fit ​​structure requires no additional fasteners. Through the precise engagement of the fixing buckle 2111 and the through hole 2121, it not only ensures the stability of the connection between the fixing plate 211 and the mounting base 212, but also simplifies the assembly and disassembly process, making the maintenance and replacement of the pin assembly 2 more convenient, while avoiding structural redundancy caused by the use of screws and other components.

[0092] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 6 The fixing plate 211 has two spaced-apart fixing buckles 2111, with one end of each buckle extending towards each other. The mounting base 212 has two spaced-apart through holes 2121, which engage with the two fixing buckles 2111 respectively. Specifically, the fixing plate 211 has two fixing buckles 2111, which are spaced apart and have one end extending towards each other, forming a relative layout to enhance stability after engagement. The mounting base 212 has two spaced-apart through holes 2121, which correspond to the two fixing buckles 2111.

[0093] During assembly, align the two through holes 2121 of the mounting base 212 with the two fixing buckles 2111 of the fixing plate 211 respectively, apply pressure to move the mounting base 212 toward the fixing plate 211 until the fixing buckles 2111 engage with the through holes 2121.

[0094] In this embodiment, the two opposing fixing buckles 2111, after being engaged, form a symmetrical constraint force on the mounting base 212, preventing the mounting base 212 from shifting or wobbling in the horizontal direction. Simultaneously, the clearance fit between the through hole 2121 and the fixing buckles 2111 restricts the radial movement of the mounting base 212. This structure, through the corresponding engagement of the double buckles and double through holes 2121, significantly improves the connection strength, ensuring that the mounting base 212 is not easily detached from the fixing plate 211 under stress. Furthermore, the elastic properties of the fixing buckles 2111 facilitate simple assembly and disassembly operations, requiring no additional tools, thus balancing connection stability and ease of operation.

[0095] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 3 , Figure 6 The pin 22 has a spring coil 221 at one end and a needle-like end 222 at the other end. The spring coil 221 is fixedly connected to one end of the mounting base 212, and the needle-like end 222 is detachably connected to the other end of the mounting base 212. Specifically, the spring coil 221 at one end of the pin 22 is a ring-shaped elastic structure formed by bending metal wire, possessing the characteristic of automatically rebounding after deformation. It is the part where the pin 22 is fixedly connected to the mounting base 212, and also provides rotational elasticity for the pin 22. The needle-like end 222 at the other end of the pin 22 is a sharp structure used to pass through external objects and form a detachable connection with the mounting base 212, which is the key end for achieving fixation. During installation, the spring coil 221 is fixedly connected to one end of the mounting base 212, and the needle-like end 222 is detachably connected to the other end of the mounting base 212.

[0096] When the housing 1 needs to be fixed, an external force overcomes the elasticity of the spring coil 221, causing the pin 22 to rotate around the axis. The needle end 222 moves away from the mounting base 212 and passes through an external object. Then, the external force is removed, and the spring coil 221 rebounds, causing the pin 22 to return to its original position. The needle end 222 presses against the connecting part of the mounting base 212, causing it to elastically deform and form a stable detachable connection. When disassembling, an external force is applied to make the pin 22 rotate in the opposite direction. The needle end 222 disengages from the mounting base 212, and the spring coil 221 deforms again to store energy. After the external force disappears, the pin 22 returns to its initial position.

[0097] This structure achieves the elastic reset of the pin 22 through the spring coil 221, ensuring that the detachable connection between the pin end 222 and the mounting base 212 always has a pre-tightening force, reducing the risk of accidental detachment. At the same time, the elasticity of the spring coil 221 simplifies the operation, making the opening and closing process of the pin 22 effortless and smooth, thus taking into account both the reliability of fixation and the ease of use.

[0098] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 3 , Figure 6 The mounting base 212 has a connecting groove 2122 at one end and a pin clip 2123 at the other end. The connecting groove 2122 is fixedly connected to the spring coil 221, and the pin clip 2123 is engaged with the needle end 222. Specifically, the mounting base 212 has a connecting groove 2122 at one end, which is used to accommodate and fix the spring coil 221 end of the pin 22, ensuring that the pin 22 can rotate stably. The mounting base 212 has a pin clip 2123 at the other end, which is used for a detachable connection with the needle end 222, serving as a locking mechanism. The connection is fixedly connected to the spring coil 221, and the pin buckle 2123 is engaged with the needle end 222. When the wireless positioning device protection device needs to be worn, a force is applied to the pin 22 to disengage the needle end 222 from the pin buckle 2123, and then the needle end 222 is passed through an object (clothing or backpack, etc.). Finally, a force is applied to the pin 22 to engage and lock the needle end 222 with the pin buckle 2123.

[0099] In this embodiment, the fixed connection between the connecting groove 2122 and the spring ring 221 ensures the stability of the pin 22's rotation, while the engagement between the pin buckle 2123 and the needle end 222 achieves reliable locking of the pin 22. The combination of the two allows the pin 22 to open and close flexibly, and to remain stable in a fixed state, thus meeting the connection requirements between the housing 1 and external items.

[0100] More specifically, the upper and lower sidewalls of the connecting groove 2122 are provided with protrusions facing each other inward, and the upper and lower ends of the spring coil 221 are respectively fixedly connected to the upper and lower protrusions.

[0101] In a specific embodiment, refer to Figure 6 The other end of the mounting base 212 is also provided with a blocking part 2124. The blocking part 2124 covers the side of the pin clip 2123 away from the connecting groove 2122, and the blocking part 2124 is used to limit the needle end 222. Specifically, the other end of the mounting base 212 is also provided with a blocking part 2124. The blocking part 2124 is used to limit the range of motion of the needle end 222 and enhance the engagement stability of the needle end 222 and the pin clip 2123. The blocking part 2124 is located on the side of the pin clip 2123 away from the connecting groove 2122 and covers the side of the pin clip 2123. The blocking surface of the blocking part 2124 will directly contact and block the needle end 222, limiting its excessive displacement.

[0102] The blocking part 2124 does not affect the normal engagement and disengagement of the needle end 222 and the pin clip 2123, and only plays a limiting role when the needle end 222 shows an abnormal displacement trend. Its covering structure can also protect the pin clip 2123, reducing the risk of jamming caused by external debris entering the clip area. At the same time, by limiting the range of motion of the needle end 222, the needle end 222 in the engaged state always maintains effective contact with the pin clip 2123, further improving the connection reliability of the pin assembly 2.

[0103] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art can easily conceive of various equivalent modifications or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model, and these modifications or substitutions should all be covered within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the scope of the claims.
