[0020] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0021] The following description is intended to disclose the present invention so that those skilled in the art can implement it. The preferred embodiments described below are merely examples, and other obvious modifications will be apparent to those skilled in the art. The basic principles of the present invention defined in the following description can be used in other embodiments, modifications, improvements, equivalents, and other technical solutions that do not depart from the spirit and scope of the present invention.

[0022] Those skilled in the art should understand that in the disclosure of this utility model, the terms "longitudinal", "lateral", "up", "down", "left", "right", "front", "rear", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc., indicate the orientation or position based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the purpose of simplifying the description of this utility model and do not indicate or imply that the device or component referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, the above terms should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0023] It is understood that the term "a" should be understood as "at least one" or "one or more", that is, in one embodiment, the number of an element can be one, while in another embodiment, the number of the element can be multiple, and the term "a" should not be understood as a limitation on the number.

[0024] Example: Please see Figure 1-7 A door lock handle replacement structure is disclosed, comprising: a door lock body 1, with a handle base 2 and a cover 3 on the front and back of the panel, the cover 3 having an outline that matches the outer contour of the handle base 2 and covers the handle base 2; a fixing mechanism for detachably connecting the cover 3 to the handle base 2; and a finger-grip portion 33 on the edge of the cover 3. The door lock handle replacement structure of this application mainly includes a door lock body 1, a handle base 2, a cover 3, and a fixing mechanism.

[0025] The door lock body 1 serves as the mounting base, and each of its front and back panels typically has a handle base 2. This handle base 2 is the core operating component of the door lock, and it contains a conventional lock cylinder transmission structure. The main innovation of this invention lies in the fact that a removable cover 3 is wrapped around the handle base 2.

[0026] The shape of the cover 3 is adapted to the outer contour of the handle base 2, like a shell or skin tightly wrapping around the handle base 2. The cover 3 is preferably formed by joining an upper shell 31 and a lower shell 32 that are symmetrically arranged vertically. This split design greatly facilitates production and assembly.

[0027] To improve the accuracy and ease of assembly, an inner positioning edge 34 extends integrally downward from the inner edge of the upper shell 31. Correspondingly, a positioning groove matching the inner contour is formed on the inner edge of the lower shell 32. During assembly, the inner positioning edge 34 engages with the positioning groove, achieving pre-positioning of the upper shell 31 and the lower shell 32 and preventing misalignment during subsequent fixing.

[0028] At key locations along the edge of the casing 3, symmetrical grooves are formed on the corresponding outer walls of the upper casing 31 and the lower casing 32, serving as finger-penetrating parts 33. When the upper casing 31 and the lower casing 32 are assembled, the two half-grooves align perfectly, forming a complete groove structure that facilitates finger insertion. This design not only facilitates disassembly but also provides intuitive guidance and positioning during installation.

[0029] The fixing mechanism is the core of realizing the detachable function of the cover 3. In this preferred embodiment, the mechanism includes a locking screw 4 and a limiting cylinder 5. Inside the upper shell 31, there is an opening 42 for accommodating the locking screw 4. On the inner wall of the lower shell 32, the limiting cylinder 5 is fixedly connected. In the middle of the handle base 2, a perforated structure 6 is pre-drilled. The perforated structure 6 consists of an upper perforation 61 and a lower perforation 62 that are connected, and the diameter of the upper perforation 61 is smaller than the diameter of the lower perforation 62, forming a stepped structure. The head end of the locking screw 4 passes through the upper perforation 61 of the perforated structure 6, and the head end of the limiting cylinder 5 passes through the lower perforation 62 of the perforated structure 6.

[0030] To enhance stability after connection, a stabilizing ring 52 made of rubber is fitted around the outer periphery of the head of the limiting cylinder 5. As a preferred reinforcement solution, two sets of fixing mechanisms can be provided and arranged symmetrically about the center line of the handle base 2 to ensure that the cover 3 is subjected to uniform force and the connection is more secure.

[0031] In a preferred embodiment, the head of the locking screw 4 is machined with an external thread section, while the top of the limiting cylinder 5 has a matching threaded groove 51. The tail of the locking screw 4 is provided with a driving part 41, which can be any structure that can mate with a tool, such as an internal hexagonal hole or a cross groove. Crucially, the length of the locking screw 4 is precisely calculated so that when it is fully screwed into the threaded groove 51 of the limiting cylinder 5 and locked, the driving part 41 at its tail can be completely hidden inside the opening 42 of the upper shell 31, making any fasteners invisible from the outside, thus ensuring the integrity and aesthetics of the cover 3.

[0032] Working principle First, fasten the lower shell 32 onto the lower half of the handle base 2, so that the head of the limiting cylinder 5 fixed on the lower shell 32, and the rubber stabilizing ring 52 thereon, pass through the larger diameter lower through hole 62 in the through hole structure 6 of the handle base 2. At the same time, align the upper shell 31 with the positioning groove of the lower shell 32 through its inner positioning edge 34 and initially engage it. During this process, ensure that the head of the locking screw 4 inside the upper shell 31 can smoothly pass through the smaller diameter upper through hole 61 in the through hole structure 6. Using a special tool, such as an Allen wrench, insert the drive part 41 at the tail of the locking screw 4 and rotate the locking screw 4 so that the external thread section of its head gradually screws into the threaded groove 51 at the top of the limiting cylinder 5. As it is tightened, the upper shell 31 and the lower shell 32 are pulled together and tightly wrap around the handle base 2.

[0033] The installation is complete when the locking screw 4 is tightened until its tail drive part 41 is completely hidden in the opening 42 of the upper shell 31. At this time, the rubber stabilizing ring 52 of the head of the limiting cylinder 5 is tightly fitted with the inner wall of the lower through hole 62 of the perforated structure 6, effectively preventing shaking and abnormal noise during use and ensuring the stability of the structure. When the user wants to replace the cover 3 with a different color or pattern, firstly, a tool such as an Allen wrench needs to be inserted into the opening 42 of the upper shell 31 and rotated counterclockwise to loosen the locking screw 4, so that the external thread section of its head completely exits from the threaded groove 51 of the limiting cylinder 5, thereby releasing the fastening connection between the upper shell 31 and the lower shell 32.

[0034] After the fixing mechanism is loosened, the user can insert their fingers into the complete groove formed by the finger-pry part 33 on the edge of the cover 3, and with a little force, pry open the upper cover 31 and the lower cover 32, thus separating the cover 3 from the handle base 2. The entire cover 3 can then be removed. Replace with a new cover 3 and repeat the above installation steps to quickly refresh the appearance of the door lock handle.

[0035] In summary, the separate design of the detachable cover 3 and the handle base 2, combined with the concealed fixing mechanism consisting of the locking screw 4 and the limiting cylinder 5, enables quick and convenient replacement of the door lock handle's appearance. Its finger-operated part 33 and pre-positioning structure ensure accurate installation and simple operation, meeting users' pursuit of personalized and diverse home decoration while guaranteeing the product's stability and aesthetics.

[0036] Those skilled in the art should understand that the embodiments of the present invention described above and shown in the accompanying drawings are merely examples and do not limit the present invention. The purpose of the present invention has been fully and effectively achieved. The functions and structural principles of the present invention have been shown and explained in the embodiments. Without departing from the stated principles, the implementation of the present invention may have any variations or modifications.
