When the fastening plates 122 are fastened to the fastening points 118, the first shell portion 112 can be firmly fastened to the second shell portion 114, wherein the slots 115 are disposed corresponding to the cover 120.
The lock releasing member 140, which is preferably made of a plastic material, includes two arms 142 disposed in the two slots 134, an elastic member 160 disposed at one end of each arm 142, a connecting member 170 connected to each arm 142, a fastening member 180 connected to each connecting member 170, and a pivot 182 protruding from one side of each fastening member 180, wherein the pivot 182 pivots the axle hole 136 and the fastening member 180 rotates around the pivot 182.
As shown in fig. 2-4, each arm 142 is preferably disposed parallel to each fastener 180, and the connecting member 170 connects the arm 142 and the fastener 180, respectively, and the connecting member 170 is preferably disposed between the arm 142 and the fastener 180. Each connector 170 further includes a body 172 and a connecting end 174 connected to the arm 142 and the fastener 180, respectively, the connecting end 174 having a thickness less than the thickness of the body 172.
The plastic connecting member 170 has a longitudinal width preferably corresponding to the width of the arm 142 and the fastening member 180, so that the connecting member 170 has a certain plastic strength, and each connecting end 174 can be easily moved by the arm 142 or the fastening member 180. Each fastener 180 further includes a plate 184 and a hook 186 disposed at one end of the plate 184, two pivots 182 are protruded from two sides of the plate 184, and the hook 186 is disposed opposite to the notch 132 for fastening the fastening hole 20.
Each sidewall 130 further includes a recessed space 138 adjacent to the axial hole 136, and the recessed space 138 is used for receiving an end of the fastener 180. The pivot 182 is preferably protruded from the middle of the plate 184, so that the fastener 180 can swing around the pivot 182 as a pivot, the space 138 provides one end of the plate 184 for receiving, and the hook 186 at the other end of the fastener 180 can be separated from the restriction of the fastening hole 20 (away from the notch 132).
Each of the resilient members 160 is preferably made of plastic or a related material as the arm 142. Each of the elastic members 160 and the fastening member 180 are preferably disposed in parallel with a leaf spring or a plate spring in the slot 134. That is, each elastic member 160 is preferably integrally connected to the lower end of each arm 142. However, in other embodiments, the elastic members 160 can be assembled, such as a compression spring or other suitable spring, and connected between the arm 142 and the housing 110, but not limited thereto.
In addition, one end of each elastic member 160 further has a positioning end 162, and the housing 110 has a combining portion 124 opposite to the positioning end 162, so that the positioning end 162 is fastened to the combining portion 124. Each of the elastic members 160 described herein is capable of elastically restoring the original position of the two support arms 142. In the first embodiment as shown in fig. 2, the positioning end 162 of the leaf spring is preferably a tab, and the combining portion 124 of the housing 110 is a positioning block or other suitable element for inserting and positioning the tab.
The at least one control member 150 drives the two support arms 142 to move relative to the two slots 134, each support arm 142 drives each connecting member 170 and pushes one end of each fastening member 180 to move, and the other end of each fastening member 180 is far away from the notch 132. In other words, the casing device 100 can be separated from the two buckling holes 20 of the casing 10, so that the user can separate the electrical plug 210 of the casing device 100 from the slot 30 of the casing 10 by applying an upward force.
Each of the control members 150 has a pushing portion 152 for pushing each of the support arms 142, a pivoting portion 154 for pivoting the housing 110, and a handle portion 156 connected to the pivoting portion 154. Each arm 142 of the lock release member 140 has an abutment end 146 opposite each pushing portion 152. The shell 110 has an opening 116 opposite to the pivot 154, and the handle 156 is protruded out of the shell 110.
In the first embodiment as shown in fig. 4 to 6, the operating member 150 further includes a connecting rod 158 connected to the handles 156, and the handles 156 can be operated to rotate together by rotating the connecting rod 158, so that the pushing portion 152 pushes the arms 142 to move downward. The pushing portion 152 of this embodiment preferably includes a semi-cylindrical surface, and the abutting end 146 is a flat surface. Therefore, when the pushing portion 152 of each control member 150 rotates to push the abutting end 146 of each supporting arm 142, the supporting arm 142 pushes the connecting member 170 downward, thereby moving one end of the fastener 180. The fastener 180 is based on the principle of lever, one end of the fastener 180 moves toward the space 138, and the fastening portion 186 is away from the notch 132, so as to disengage from the locking of the fastening hole 20. The elastic member 160 is compressed and stores an elastic force.
That is, when the connecting rod 158 rotates from the locking position to the releasing position, the slot 115 of the housing 110 can receive the stem 156, and the connecting rod 158 moves rotationally above the upper cover 120. At this time, the user can further rapidly separate the housing device 100 from the casing 10 by pulling the connecting rod 158, so as to achieve the effects of simple operation, rapidness and time saving.
In addition, since the pivot portion 154 of each control member 150 is positioned at the opening portion 116 of the casing 110, the pivot shaft 182 of the fastener 180 is pivoted to the shaft hole 136, and the positioning end 162 of the elastic member 160 is positioned at the connection portion 124, a user can easily operate the connecting rod 158 or each handle portion 156 to detach or assemble the casing device 100 from the casing 10.
After the maintenance or replacement of the housing device 100 is completed, the housing device 100 can be assembled to the casing 10. That is, when each of the manipulating members 150 returns to the locking position from the releasing position, each of the elastic members 160 releases the elastic force to automatically push back each of the supporting arms 142, each of the connecting members 170 simultaneously pulls each of the fastening members 180, and due to the lever principle, the hook portion 186 returns to the position of the notch 132 again to form a locking relationship with the fastening hole 20 again, that is, the electrical plug end 210 of the housing device 100 is electrically coupled to the slot 30 of the housing 10 again.
Fig. 7 to 9 are a partially exploded view, a perspective view and a sectional view of the operation member/lock releasing member according to a second preferred embodiment of the present invention. The difference between the present embodiment and the first embodiment is that the pushing portion 152 of each control member 150 is preferably a flat cam with a curved periphery, and the abutting end 146 of each support arm 142 is a plane. The opening portion 116 is disposed on the sidewall 130 for the pivot portion 154 to pass through, and the handle portion 156 vertically connected to the pivot portion 154 is protruded out of the sidewall 130 for the user to operate.
When the user rotates the handle portion 156 (from the locked position to the released position), the pushing portion 152 of the cam in the form of a flat plate rotationally pushes the support arm 142 downward. The hook 186 of the fastener 180 rotates by the lever principle to release the fastening hole 20 of the casing 10, completing the operation of separating the casing 10. For the detailed operation manner, other components and their connection relationship in this embodiment, please refer to the description of the first embodiment, which is not repeated herein.
Referring further to fig. 10 to 12, there are shown a partially exploded view, a perspective view and a cross-sectional view of each of the manipulating members/lock releasing members according to the third preferred embodiment of the present invention. The difference between the present embodiment and the previous embodiments is that the pushing portion 152 of each control member 150 is preferably a cylindrical cam, and the contact end 146 of each arm 142 includes a flat surface 1462 and a chamfer 148 connecting the flat surfaces 1462. The cylindrical cam as shown is preferably hollow and has a curved periphery at one end to smoothly ride over chamfer 148 and push against flat 146. The opening portion 116 is disposed on the cover 120 to fix the pivot portion 154, and each handle portion 156 is vertically connected to the pivot portion 154 and protrudes out of the cover 120 for user operation.
As the user rotates each handle 156, the cylindrically shaped cam pushing portion 152 rotates past the chamfer 148 and pushes against the flat surface 1462, thereby moving each arm 142 downward relative to the slot 134. The pushing portion 152 of the cylindrical cam in this embodiment moves from the low point to the high point in a rotating manner to push the fastener 180 to move and rotate, thereby completing the operation of releasing the housing 10. However, when the housing device 100 is assembled to the casing 10, the elastic member 160 can release the elastic force to push the support arms 142 to return to the original position. If the elastic force is properly designed, the interference end 146 can automatically push back the pushing portion 152 to return the stem 156 to the initial position/locking state.
Referring to fig. 13 to 15, a partially exploded view, a perspective view and a sectional view of each of the operation members/lock releasing members according to a fourth preferred embodiment of the present invention are shown. The difference between the present embodiment and the previous embodiments is that the pushing portion 152 of each control member 150 is preferably a curved surface or an arc, and each contact end 146 includes a flat surface 1462 and an arc surface 1466 connected to the flat surface 1462. When the pushing portion 152 of the curved surface or arc moves from the plane 1462 to the curved surface 1466, the arm 142 is pushed to move downward. The opening portion 116 is opened on the cover plate 120, and the handle portion 156 is vertically connected to the pushing portion 152 and protruded out of the cover plate 120.
When the pivoting portion 154 of each handle 156 moves along the opening portion 116 in parallel, each pushing portion 152 moves from the flat surface 1462 to the curved surface 1466 to push the arm 142 to move downward, thereby completing the operation of releasing the housing 10. However, when the housing device 100 is assembled to the casing 10, the elastic member 160 elastically pushes against each of the supporting arms 142 and the hook 186 returns to the original position. At this time, the pushing portion 152 can move along the interference end 146 from the arc surface 1466 to the flat surface 1462, so that the handle 156 returns to the initial position/locking state.
Please refer to fig. 16 to fig. 20, which are related diagrams illustrating a fifth preferred embodiment of the present invention. The difference between the present embodiment and the previous embodiments is that the pushing portion 152 of each control member 150 is a key 153, and each contact end 146 and each key 153 are integrally formed. That is, each control member 150 is preferably integrally formed with each arm 142. As shown, the housing 110 further includes a resilient hook 126 extending from both sides of the slot 134, and each of the support arms 142 has two positioning protrusions 144 corresponding to the resilient hooks 126 for positioning and locking the relative position of each of the keys 153.
The present embodiment further includes two release buttons 190 having a plurality of legs 192, respectively, for further releasing the locking position/state of each button 153. As shown in fig. 17, 19 and 20, the legs 192 are respectively provided to be inclined inward and to face the elastic hooks 126, and can be pressed downward to spread the elastic hooks 126 apart from the restriction of the positioning protrusions 144. In addition, each release button 190 further includes a through hole 194 through which the operating member 150 passes and a limiting portion 196 that is fastened to the housing 110. The restricting portions 196, such as flanges, are used to restrict the displacement of the release buttons 190 relative to the housing 110, so that the release buttons 190 can be movably displaced between the cover 120 and the elastic hooks 126.
When the control members 150 directly press the buttons 153 to push the support arms 142 to move downward (i.e., the buttons 153 move from the locking position to the releasing position), the positioning protrusions 144 engage with the elastic hooks 126. At this time, the elastic member 160 is compressed and the connecting member 170 pushes the fastener 180 to move, so that the hook 186 of the fastener 180 is away from the notch 132 (i.e. the fastening hole 20 is released), thereby completing the operation of releasing the housing 10.
When the lock releasing member 140 returns to the locked state (i.e., locks the housing 10), the release buttons 190 must be pressed to move the legs 192 downward to open the elastic hooks 126. At this time, the control members 150 and the support arms 142 are automatically moved upwards and reset by the elastic member 160, so that the key 153 can return to the initial position again, that is, the hook 186 of the casing device 100 and the button hole 20 of the casing 10 form a locking position/state again.
It should be noted that, since each leg 192 and each elastic hook 126 have a corresponding inclined surface (not shown, as shown in fig. 20), each elastic hook 126 can be smoothly and elastically spread. When each elastic hook 126 abuts against the corresponding sidewall 130, each release button 190 cannot be pressed further, and has a limiting effect.
The present invention utilizes various operating members 150 with different structures to realize the operation mode of pressing down each support arm 142 by operating the connecting rod 158, each handle 156, pressing each release button 190 or other suitable members, thereby improving the operation flexibility of the present invention, satisfying the operation requirements of products or achieving other purposes.
Although each of the control members 150 of the second to fifth embodiments of the present invention is provided with two separate handles 156, the user must use two hands to operate the control members to release the locking relationship between the housing device 100 and the casing 10. However, in other embodiments, a connecting rod or other suitable connecting element (not shown) may be provided to connect the two handles 156, thereby improving the synchronization and convenience of operation. In addition, in order to stabilize the relative movement of the lock releasing member 140 in the slot 134, the housing 110 further includes a plurality of supporting blocks 128 disposed on each side wall 130, so that each supporting block 128 guides and restricts the smooth movement of each arm 142 relative to the slot 134.
Because the present invention utilizes the lever principle, the two support arms 142 are pressed down by the linkage of the control members 150, so that each support arm 142 pushes one end of the fastener 180. The other end of the locking member 180 (i.e., the hook portion 186) rotates around the pivot 182 relatively away from the notch 132, thereby unlocking or locking the locking hole 20 of the casing 10. In addition, each elastic member 160 can automatically push back each supporting arm 142 and each fastening member 180. Each hook 186 can return to the position of each notch 132 again, and since one side of each hook 186 of each fastener 180 has a chamfer (not labeled), the housing device 100 can be easily and quickly locked with the two fastening holes 20 of the housing 10, which is very convenient and time-saving in operation.
The above-mentioned embodiments are merely preferred embodiments for fully illustrating the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. The equivalent substitution or change made by the technical personnel in the technical field on the basis of the invention is all within the protection scope of the invention. The protection scope of the invention is subject to the claims.
