Example 1
Referring to fig. 1 and 2, the present embodiment provides a locking mechanism suitable for realizing a stable connection between at least two devices to assemble an integrated device. The arrangement can facilitate the disassembly of the connected devices when one device is damaged so as to replace the damaged device without replacing the whole device, thereby being more convenient and faster.
The locking mechanism comprises a first locking member 1, a second locking member 2 and a fixing member 3, wherein the first locking member 1 is rotatably mounted on a first object 10, the second locking member 2 can move relative to the first locking member 1 to drive the first locking member 1 to rotate, and the fixing member 3 is connected with the first locking member 1 and rotates along with the rotation of the first locking member 1.
The fixation means 3 is adapted to be connected with a second object 20 for mounting the second object 20 on the first object 10, in turn enabling a connection between two devices of the first object 10 and the second object 20. The second locking member 2 is selectively mounted on the first object 10 or on the third object 30. When the second locking member 2 is mounted on the first object 10, the locking mechanism is now adapted to connect two devices. When the second locking member 2 is mounted on the third object 30, the locking mechanism is adapted to connect three devices at this time, so that the connection between the plurality of devices is achieved while the compactness of the entire apparatus after the plurality of devices are connected can be ensured.
In this embodiment, the locking mechanism may be adapted to securely couple a plurality of components of the mop assembly. Accordingly, the first object 10 may be a frame of a mop assembly, the third object 30 may be a base slidably connected to the frame, and the second object 20 may be a cleaning member having one end detachably connected to the frame and the other end detachably connected to the base. Conventionally, the cleaning member is a mop.
In other embodiments, the locking mechanism may be adapted to securely connect a plurality of components of other devices, not limited to mop assemblies, nor to the field of cleaning apparatus. For example, the photovoltaic panel and the photovoltaic support are connected, the first locking member 1 and the second locking member 2 are disposed on the photovoltaic support, and the fixing member 3 is connected with the photovoltaic panel to mount the photovoltaic panel on the photovoltaic support, which is not particularly limited herein, depending on the actual situation.
The first locking member 1 comprises a bending body 11 forming at least one notch and a first locking body 12 connected with the bending body 11, and correspondingly, the second locking member 2 comprises a second locking member 21, and the second locking member 21 is matched and locked with the first locking body 12 so that the first locking member 1 and the second locking member 2 are integrally locked. The purpose of the bending body 11 is to: before the first locking body 12 is not locked and matched with the second locking member 21, the upper end face of the second locking member 2 contacts with the bottom end of the first locking body 12 to integrally press the first locking member 1, and the bending body 11 is used for being deformed through the notch when being pressed, so that the second locking member 2 can smoothly continue to move forwards until the second locking member 21 of the second locking member 2 is locked and matched with the first locking body 12.
Accordingly, the bending body 11 is at least partially made of a deformable material. The bending body 11 includes a first connecting portion 111, a second connecting portion 112 parallel to the first connecting portion 111, and a bending portion 113 connecting the first connecting portion 111 and the second connecting portion 112, wherein a cavity formed by the first connecting portion 111, the second connecting portion 112, and the bending portion 113 serves as a notch. In this embodiment, the notch is U-shaped. In other embodiments, the notch may also be S-shaped, and is not limited herein, as the case may be.
In order to enable the bending body 11 to deform when being pressed, the material of the bending portion 113 and/or the first connecting portion 111 and/or the second connecting portion 112 is a deformable material. In order to simplify the manufacturing process, the bending portion 113, the first connecting portion 111, and the second connecting portion 112 are integrally formed, and thus, the bending portion 113, the first connecting portion 111, and the second connecting portion 112 are all made of a deformable material. The deformable material can be silica gel, rubber, polyurethane and other materials, is not particularly limited, and only needs to achieve the deformation effect.
The first locking body 12 is connected with the second connecting portion 112, so that the first locking body 12 can drive the second connecting portion 112 to be bent and deformed toward the first connecting portion 111 when being pressed by the second locking member 2, and then the bent body 11 is deformed. Wherein, one of the first locking body 12 and the second locking member 21 is a projection, and the other of the first locking body 12 and the second locking member 21 is a groove for holding the projection. In the present embodiment, the first locking body 12 is a protrusion, and the second locking member 21 is a groove. In order to ensure the compactness of the overall structure of the locking mechanism, the projection is formed to project from one end of the second connecting portion 112 away from the bent portion 113 toward one side of the second locking member 2, and the groove is formed to be recessed from one surface of the second locking member 2 toward the first locking member 1.
In other embodiments, the first locking body 12 may be configured as a groove, and the second locking member 21 may be configured as a bump, which is not specifically limited herein, as the case may be.
As described above, the first locking member 1 is rotatably provided on the first object 10, and the first locking member 1 is rotated by being pressed and deformed by the bending body 11. Therefore, when the second locking member 2 moves relative to the first locking member 1, the bending body 11 is deformed to urge the first locking member 1 to rotate, so that the second locking member 21 and the first locking body 12 are switched between the locked state and the released state.
In order to enable a better locking of the first locking member 1 and the second locking member 2, the first locking body 12 and/or the second locking member 2 has a guide surface 4. When the second locking member 2 moves in the first direction (indicated by arrow a in the figure), the first locking body 12 rotates to the second locking member 21 via the guide surface 4 and is locked with the second locking member 21. In the height direction (indicated by arrow c) of the second locking member 2, the guide surface 4 is inclined in the first direction.
When the second locking member 2 is moved in a second direction, which is opposite to the first direction, the first locking body 12 is rotated to disengage the second locking member 21. Also, in order to enable better disengagement of the first locking member 1 and the second locking member 2, the second locking member 21 further has a guiding surface 211, the guiding surface 211 being adapted to guide the first locking body 12 to disengage from the second locking member 21 when the second locking member 2 is moved in the second direction (indicated by arrow b in the figure). Wherein the guide surface 211 is provided in the same direction as the guide surface 4.
As can be seen from the above, the fixing member 3 is connected to the first locking member 1, and the first locking member 1 is rotatably provided on the first object 10. The fixing member 3 is rotatable with the rotation of the first locking member 1, and therefore, in the present embodiment, the fixing member 3 and the bending body 11 are distributed on both sides of the rotation fulcrum of the first locking member 1. In order to simplify the manufacturing process and steps, in the present embodiment, the fixing member 3 is integrally formed with the first locking member 1.
It is noted that the second locking member 2 is moved in the first direction, and the second locking member 2 exerts a force on the first locking body 12 to force the bending body 11 to deform until the first locking body 12 is in locking engagement with the second locking member 21. During the movement of the second locking member 2 in the first direction, the first locking member 1 and the first object 10 do not rotate relatively, and the fixing member 3 and the second object 20 remain mounted.
The second locking member 2 moves along the second direction, and the second locking member 21 drives the first locking body 12 to rotate along the second direction, so as to drive the first locking member 1 to rotate along the second direction, and the fixing member 3 is separated from the second target object 20. The second locking member 2 continues to move in the second direction until the second locking member 21 and the first locking body 12 switch from the locked state to the released state.
The fixing member 3 includes a connecting body 31 connected to the first locking member 1 and an abutting body 32 connected to the connecting body 31, and an end portion of the abutting body 32 remote from the connecting body 31 is bent outward to form an abutting portion 321 to be attached to the second object 20. When the fixing member 3 does not rotate following the first locking member 1, the outwardly bent abutting portion 321 can be hung on the second object 20 and then remain mounted with the second object 20.
The locking mechanism further comprises a force application part 5 connected with the first locking member 1, wherein the force application part 5 always applies driving force to the first locking body 12, so that the first locking body 12 and the second locking member 21 tend to keep a locking state, and the connection stability between the devices is ensured. Wherein, the force applying piece 5 is a spring. The spring is a compression spring or a tension spring.
In summary, the following steps: by providing the first locking member 1 rotatably mounted on the first object 10, the second locking member 2 movable relative to the first locking member 1, and the fixing member 3, in the process that the second locking member 2 is moved to make the bending body 11 of the first locking member 1 press-deform and then lock with the first locking member 1, the fixing member 3 and the second object 20 are connected to mount the second object 20 on the first object 10, and then the stability of the connection between the first object 10 and the second object 20 is ensured; in the process that the second locking member 2 moves to be separated from the first locking member 1 to unlock, the bending body 11 is driven to rotate so that the first locking member 1 integrally rotates to drive the fixing member 3 to rotate, and then the first locking member is separated from the second target object 20, so that the convenience of detaching the first target object 10 and the second target object 20 is ensured, the integral structure of the locking mechanism is simplified, and the compactness of the integral structure of the device is improved.
It is to be understood that the above-described embodiments are only a few, but not all, embodiments of the present invention. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, those skilled in the art may make other changes or modifications without creative efforts, and all of them should fall into the protection scope of the present invention.
