DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
Please refer to Fig. 1 to Fig. 7, the changeable shoe rack of the present invention includes a support structure 10, at least one shoes plate 20, and at least one holding structure. In the present embodiment, plural shoes plates 20 and plural holding structures are included, and a base plate 40 is also included.
The shoes plates 20 are spacedly disposed on the support structure 10, and the base plate 40 is arranged below the bottom one of the shoes plates 20 and is separated from it. More specifically, the support structure includes support columns, and the shoes plates 20 and the base plate 40 are connected by the support structure 10 to be aligned vertically.
3 Each holding structure is disposed on the bottom face of the shoes plate 20 and includes two clamping structure 31 arranged parallel. Each clamping structure includes two clamping elements arranged parallel. Each clamping element comprises a base portion 301 and a receiving portion 302. The base portion 301 is fixed on the bottom face of the shoes plate 20. The receiving portion 302 is detachably connected to an end of the base portion 301 remote from the shoes plate 20. The two clamping elements define a clamping space 313 therebetween. Each receiving portion 302 has a cambered face 3111,3121 to fit the shape of the shoes in the clamping space 313 so that the shoes 50 can be placed between the two cambered faces 3111,3121.
Preferably, two ends of each cambered face 3111,3121 along a horizontal direction have various curvature radiuses, and each base portion 301 is substantially perpendicular to the shoes plate 20. In other possible embodiments, the cambered face can be a face having right angle or other angle. Optionally, each of the receiving portions 302 and the base portions 301 has at least one elongated hole 3012,3022 for at least one fixing element 31 to insert in. The fixing element 314 has an elongated portion 3141 corresponding to the elongated hole 3012,3022. When the elongated portion 3141 is inserted through the elongated hole 3012,3022 and the fixing element 314 is rotated, the receiving portion 302 and the base portion 301 can be stacked and fixed together.
Specifically, the two clamping elements of each clamping structure 31 are a fixed clamping element 311 and a movable clamping element 312. The two movable clamping elements 312 are located between the two fixed clamping elements 311.
Each holding structure further includes a moving structure 32 which is arranged
Preferably, two ends of each cambered face 3111,3121 along a horizontal direction have various curvature radiuses, and each base portion 301 is substantially perpendicular to the shoes plate 20. In other possible embodiments, the cambered face can be a face having right angle or other angle. Optionally, each of the receiving portions 302 and the base portions 301 has at least one elongated hole 3012,3022 for at least one fixing element 31 to insert in. The fixing element 314 has an elongated portion 3141 corresponding to the elongated hole 3012,3022. When the elongated portion 3141 is inserted through the elongated hole 3012,3022 and the fixing element 314 is rotated, the receiving portion 302 and the base portion 301 can be stacked and fixed together.
Specifically, the two clamping elements of each clamping structure 31 are a fixed clamping element 311 and a movable clamping element 312. The two movable clamping elements 312 are located between the two fixed clamping elements 311.
Each holding structure further includes a moving structure 32 which is arranged
4 between the two movable clamping elements 312 and is connected to them. The moving structure 32 is able to drive the two movable clamping elements 312 to move toward opposite directions in order to alternate the width of the clamping space 313. Each of the base portion 301 and the receiving portion 302 of each clamping element is horizontally formed with at least one ear portion 3011,3021 away from the clamping space 313. The ear portions 3011,3021 are stacked together.
The elongated holes 3021,3022 are formed on the eat portions 3011,3021. Each base portion 301 is formed with a through hole 3013 near the ear portion 3011, each receiving portion 302 is formed with a protrusion 3023 near the ear portion 3021.
The protrusion 3023 is inserted into the through hole 3013.
In the present embodiment, each moving structure 32 includes plural sets of horizontal bars 322, at least one longitudinal bar 323, at least two vertical bars 321, and a bolt 324. Each set of horizontal bars 322 includes at least two horizontal bars 322 pivotally connected to each other and connected to the two movable clamping elements 312 respectively. The longitudinal bar 323 is connected between the pivotal connections of the horizontal bars 322 to retain the distance therebetween constant.
The two vertical bars 321 are disposed on the pivotal connections of different sets of horizontal bars 322. One of the vertical bars 321 is rotatably inserted through by the bolt 324, but the bolt 324 cannot move with respect to it. The other one of the vertical bars 321 is threadedly inserted through by the bolt 324. The distance between the two vertical bars 321 is changed by rotating the bolt 324 in order to make the horizontal bars 322 of each set pivot with respect to each other so that a distance between the movable clamping elements 312 is alternated. That is, the two movable clamping elements 312 are moved the same distance toward the fixed clamping elements 311.
Besides, the bottom face of the shoes plate 20 is disposed with two sliding rails 21 which are arranged separately. Each of two opposite ends of the base portion 301 of each movable clamping element 312 along a direction perpendicular to a moving direction of the base portion 301 is formed with a sliding rib 3112. The two sliding ribs 3112 are slidably received in the sliding rails 21 to guide the movement of each movable clamping element 312. More specifically, each sliding rail 21 is enclosed by a Z-shaped plate and the shoes plate 20. A notch 3113 is formed on the base portion 301 of each movable clamping element 312 near the sliding rib 3112. The Z-shaped plate is embedded into the notch 3113.
As a result, the user can alternate the width of the clamping space 313 with the moving structure 32 based on the sizes of shoes to be received, or the user can place the shoes into the clamping space 313 before moving the movable clamping elements 312 toward the fixed clamping elements 311 to clamp the shoes 50.
Besides, the radian of the two ends of the cambered face differs, so the cambered face can fit the contour of the shoes 50.
Another holding structure is shown in Fig. 8 to Fig. 13. The heights of two ends of the cambered face of the fixed clamping element 311a or the movable clamping element 312a vary to make the cambered face inclined so as to fit the contour of high heel boots 60. Thereby, the boots 60 can be kept erect when being hung, and the head of the boots may not be compressed.
The elongated holes 3021,3022 are formed on the eat portions 3011,3021. Each base portion 301 is formed with a through hole 3013 near the ear portion 3011, each receiving portion 302 is formed with a protrusion 3023 near the ear portion 3021.
The protrusion 3023 is inserted into the through hole 3013.
In the present embodiment, each moving structure 32 includes plural sets of horizontal bars 322, at least one longitudinal bar 323, at least two vertical bars 321, and a bolt 324. Each set of horizontal bars 322 includes at least two horizontal bars 322 pivotally connected to each other and connected to the two movable clamping elements 312 respectively. The longitudinal bar 323 is connected between the pivotal connections of the horizontal bars 322 to retain the distance therebetween constant.
The two vertical bars 321 are disposed on the pivotal connections of different sets of horizontal bars 322. One of the vertical bars 321 is rotatably inserted through by the bolt 324, but the bolt 324 cannot move with respect to it. The other one of the vertical bars 321 is threadedly inserted through by the bolt 324. The distance between the two vertical bars 321 is changed by rotating the bolt 324 in order to make the horizontal bars 322 of each set pivot with respect to each other so that a distance between the movable clamping elements 312 is alternated. That is, the two movable clamping elements 312 are moved the same distance toward the fixed clamping elements 311.
Besides, the bottom face of the shoes plate 20 is disposed with two sliding rails 21 which are arranged separately. Each of two opposite ends of the base portion 301 of each movable clamping element 312 along a direction perpendicular to a moving direction of the base portion 301 is formed with a sliding rib 3112. The two sliding ribs 3112 are slidably received in the sliding rails 21 to guide the movement of each movable clamping element 312. More specifically, each sliding rail 21 is enclosed by a Z-shaped plate and the shoes plate 20. A notch 3113 is formed on the base portion 301 of each movable clamping element 312 near the sliding rib 3112. The Z-shaped plate is embedded into the notch 3113.
As a result, the user can alternate the width of the clamping space 313 with the moving structure 32 based on the sizes of shoes to be received, or the user can place the shoes into the clamping space 313 before moving the movable clamping elements 312 toward the fixed clamping elements 311 to clamp the shoes 50.
Besides, the radian of the two ends of the cambered face differs, so the cambered face can fit the contour of the shoes 50.
Another holding structure is shown in Fig. 8 to Fig. 13. The heights of two ends of the cambered face of the fixed clamping element 311a or the movable clamping element 312a vary to make the cambered face inclined so as to fit the contour of high heel boots 60. Thereby, the boots 60 can be kept erect when being hung, and the head of the boots may not be compressed.
