Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of fishing tackle, and more particularly to a fixing clamp. [Background technology]

[0002] Fixing clamps are widely used to secure various equipment and structural components, especially tables, brackets, or platforms with specific surfaces or edge shapes. Fixing clamps can securely attach accessories to the main structure to ensure the stability and safety of the equipment during operation. Therefore, they are widely used in fishing platforms, tables, and various industrial and outdoor environments. Fixing clamps can also be used to attach tools, instruments, or brackets to facilitate work in various environments, such as clamping a fishing turret to the side of a ship. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0003] Prior art, such as CN216254843U, discloses a fixing clamp for a fishing platform accessory, which includes a clamp body and a telescopic fixing segment. The clamp body includes a first fixing segment, a second fixing segment, and a third fixing segment. The first fixing segment and the third fixing segment are respectively provided at both ends of the second fixing segment. The first fixing segment is bent relative to the second fixing segment, and the telescopic fixing segment includes a clamp head that can reciprocate between the first fixing segment and the third fixing segment. During the reciprocating motion, the clamp head can move toward or away from the second fixing segment. The third fixing segment is formed by bending the free end of the second fixing segment. A fitting groove is formed in the bent portion, and a fourth fixing segment is provided at the free end of the third fixing segment, and the fourth fixing segment extends in a direction away from the second fixing segment. A connecting structure is provided to the first fixing segment, the second fixing segment, the third fixing segment, or the fourth fixing segment. Since magnetic and adhesive fastening methods are rarely used in actual fishing, the conventional fastening method still uses metal parts. Two sets of bolt holes are provided in the center of the second fastening segment for fastening to an external connecting part. Of course, similar structures such as mating grooves and sliding grooves can also be used.

[0004] In the above-mentioned fixing clamp solution, the fixing clamp is used in conjunction with a fishing platform accessory. When used on a ship, the fixing clamp is clamped to the ship's side, and the fishing platform is attached to the fixing clamp, making the construction of the fishing platform easy. However, there are still some drawbacks. Namely, the connection structure between the fixing clamp and the fishing platform is relatively simple. This connection structure is provided on the first, second, third, or fourth fixing segment. On the other hand, it is not possible to simultaneously attach two tools, instruments, or brackets. On the other hand, the fixing clamp has a single clamping direction. For example, if two sets of bolt holes are provided in the center of the second fixing segment as a connecting structure, the fixing clamp must be clamped laterally to the ship's side in order for the fishing platform to be connected to the second fixing segment via the bolt structure. [Means for solving the problem]

[0005] The object of the present invention is to provide a fixing clamp that can be adjustably gripped to the ship's side by modifying the structure of the fixing clamp, and that has two sockets and mounting positions for attaching equipment.

The second holder segment and the third holder segment are both bent relative to the first holder segment. The adjustment member is connected to the third holder segment. The adjustment member includes a clamp head that can move back and forth between the second holder segment and the third holder segment. This allows the fixing clamp to be adjustably gripped on the ship's side. Both the first holder segment and the second holder segment are provided with sockets for connecting equipment. This allows the fixing clamp to have two sockets and mounting positions for attaching equipment. The fixing clamp can simultaneously attach two tools, instruments, or brackets. Furthermore, the fixing clamp can clamp horizontally or vertically. Specifically, in the horizontal direction, the fishing turret is connected to the first holder segment, and in the vertical direction, the fishing turret is connected to the second holder segment.

[0022] Referring to FIGS. 1 to 3, these respectively show a perspective view of the fixed clamp of the present application, a front view of the fixed clamp, and a perspective view of the holder 1. The fixed clamp includes a holder 1 and an adjustment member 2 attached to the holder 1. The structure of the holder 1 is in the shape of a "匚". The structure of the adjustment member 2 is in the shape of a "工". The holder 1 includes a first holder segment 11, a second holder segment 12, and a third holder segment 13. The second holder segment 12 and the third holder segment 13 are respectively located at both ends of the first holder segment 11. The second holder segment 12 and the third holder segment 13 are both bent with respect to the first holder segment 11, and the bending directions of the second holder segment 12 and the third holder segment 13 are the same. The adjustment member 2 is connected to the third holder segment 13, and the adjustment member 2 is also connected to the holder 1. The adjustment member 2 includes a clamp head 21 that can reciprocate between the second holder segment 12 and the third holder segment 13. Thereby, the fixed clamp can be clamped to a table, bracket or platform having a specific surface or edge shape. Further, the adjustment member 2 further includes an adjustment screw 22 and an adjustment knob 23. Specifically, the clamp head 21 and the adjustment knob 23 are respectively connected to both ends of the adjustment screw 22. The clamp head 21 is connected to the adjustment screw 22 by a bolt structure, and the clamp head 21 and the adjustment screw 22 are detachably connected. The adjustment screw 22 is connected to the adjustment knob 23. Further, a screw hole 131 adapted to the adjustment screw 22 is provided in the third holder segment 13. The adjustment screw 22 fits into the screw hole 131 to screw-connect the adjustment screw 22 and the holder 1. Regarding the attachment and adjustment method of the adjustment member 2, first, by turning the adjustment knob 23, the adjustment knob 23 is rotated synchronously with the adjustment screw 22 to screw the adjustment screw 22 into the screw hole 131. Next, after the adjustment screw 22 passes through the screw hole 131, the clamp head 21 is fitted to the end of the adjustment screw 22, and the clamp head 21 and the adjustment screw 22 are bolt-connected. Further, turn the adjustment knob 23 to adjust the distance between the clamp head 21 and the second holder segment 12 so that the fixed clamp is stably held on the table, bracket, platform.The advantage of the above solution is that the fitting of the adjusting screw 22 with the threaded hole 131 stabilizes the displacement process of the clamping head 21 and the clamping structure. Furthermore, the detachable connection between the clamping head 21 and the adjusting screw 22 makes it easy to attach and detach the adjusting member 2. As described in the installation and adjustment method of the adjusting member 2, it can be disassembled by performing the reverse operation.

[0023] Both the first holder segment 11 and the second holder segment 12 are provided with sockets 3 for connecting equipment. The opening directions of these two sockets 3 are different, so that the fixing clamp has two sockets 3 and mounting positions for attaching equipment. The fixing clamp can simultaneously attach two tools, instruments, or brackets. Specifically, the fixing clamp can clamp horizontally or vertically. When clamped horizontally, the fishing turret is connected to the first holder segment 11, and when clamped vertically, the fishing turret is connected to the second holder segment 12.

[0024] Preferably, in this embodiment, a gripping space 14 is formed between the second holder segment 12 and the third holder segment 13. The first holder segment 11 is provided with a toothed anti-slip structure 111 located on the side of the first holder segment 11 away from the gripping space 14. The toothed anti-slip structure 111 refers to a plurality of tooth-like protrusions or grooves provided on the first holder segment 11. The advantage of this configuration is that the toothed protrusions or grooves provide an anti-slip effect when gripping the holder 1.

[0025] Preferably, in this embodiment, the holder 1 is provided with material saving grooves 15 on both sides.

[0026] Furthermore, in this embodiment, a plurality of polygonal anti-slip grooves 151 are arranged in the material-saving groove 15, specifically, a plurality of hexagonal anti-slip grooves are compactly arranged in the material-saving groove 15, which provides an anti-slip effect while maintaining aesthetic appeal.
