[0040] Referring to FIG. 1 to FIG. 4, the present disclosure provides a technical solution: a quick balloon clip with a compression and locking structure includes an integrally formed clip body 1. To enhance stability of fixing of an opening of a balloon, a guide slot 2 is formed in an edge of the clip body 1. A compression opening 3 is formed in a position, corresponding to a bottom of the guide slot 2, on the clip body 1. The compression opening 3 is communicated with the guide slot 2. The guide slot 2 guides a balloon neck portion to slide into the compression opening 3. A barb structure 4 for preventing the balloon neck portion from being detached from the compression opening 3 is arranged at a position, close to the guide slot 2, on an inner wall of the compression opening 3. Resilient holes 5 are formed in positions, located on two sides of the compression opening 3, on the clip body 1. Due to the design of the resilient holes 5, a deformation position is provided for the clip body 1. By use of the deformation of the positions with the resilient holes 5, the balloon neck portion is assisted in entering the compression opening 3 and being clamped.
[0041] For the guide slot 2, referring to FIG. 1, the guide slot 2 is V-shaped, with a function of guiding the balloon neck portion to enter the compression opening 3. Other guide slots 2 in shapes such as S shape and Y shape are all applicable to this technical solution. Specifications are classified based on a size of the guide slot 2 and a size of the compression opening 3. The primary objective of the compression opening 3 is to achieve a function of compressing openings of balloons with different sizes. The opening of the balloon is compressed based on the area of the compression opening 3. A compression opening 3 with an area of 3 to 8.2 mm2 can compress balloons of 5 to 36 inches. The compression opening 3 can be in any shape, and as long as its area corresponds to the size of the balloon, the compression opening can adapt to balloons with different sizes. This greatly enhances universality and market adaptability of the product. The structure is applicable to a sealing scenario of most common charging objects such as a latex balloon, a silicone balloon, and a hydrogen balloon, and is particularly applicable to occasions in which quick deployment is required, such as deploying a balloon arch, a trade show, and a wedding.
[0042] A width of the guide slot 2 gradually decreases from outside to inside, so that the balloon neck portion is continuously compressed in a process of entering the compression opening 3 through the guide slot 2. The balloon neck portion is inserted into the compression opening 3 and is pressed, so that the balloon neck portion is clamped. Preferably, a gap of a compression space formed in a joint of the guide slot 2 and the compression opening 3 needs to be smaller than 0.4 mm. The clip body 1 is injection-molded. By injection-molding deformation, the gap is smaller than 0.4 mm. A wall thickness of the latex balloon is generally 0.18 mm. The balloon neck portion is pressed into the compression opening 3 and accumulated. The size of the gap can limit the balloon neck portion and prevent the balloon neck portion from being detached from the compression opening 3.
[0043] The barb structure 4 is a reverse hook-shaped structure or a groove structure, by which the balloon neck portion is clamped with the barb structure after being inserted into the compression opening 3, to prevent air leakage, thus sealing the balloon without manual knotting.
[0044] Filleted corners are provided at edges of the clip body 1, the guide slot 2, the compression opening 3, and the barb structure 4 to avoid cutting of the balloon.
[0045] The resilient holes 5 are elliptical and rectangular, thus enhancing a clamping effect on the balloon. Furthermore, in a specific implementation, the resilient holes 5 have diversified forms, not limited to the elliptical shape and the rectangular shape. Referring to FIG. 5 to FIG. 6, resilient holes 5 and compression openings 3 that are in different forms are shown.
[0046] It should be noted that the technical features in this technical solution are all integrally formed based on the clip body 1 and can be repeatedly used, and the clip body 1 is preferably made of hard plastic.
[0047] In Embodiment I, the clip body 1 is ringlike, and more than one guide slot 2 is formed in the edge of the clip body 1. Based on the foregoing structure, the guide slots can be arrayed on the ring-like clip body 1 to form combinations of different shapes, so as to make more balloon shapes.
[0048] In Embodiment II, the clip body 1 is sheet-like.
[0049] It should be noted that to meet a requirement for a plurality of balloon fixing shapes, corresponding clip bodies 1 can also be made according to shape requirements. The clip bodies may be in a regular shape or in a special shape. Quick sealing and shaping of a balloon can be achieved by forming openings on demand in the clip body 1. Referring to FIG. 7 to FIG. 8, combinations of different shapes are shown.
[0050] The various modifications to these embodiments will be apparent to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein can be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present disclosure. Therefore, the present disclosure will not be limited to these embodiments shown herein, but is intended to satisfy a largest scope consistent with the principle and novel features disclosed herein.
