Specifically, the lock body 300 is mounted on the case 100, and the structure of the lock body 300 and the lock body 400 will be described in detail by taking the case that the lock body 400 is mounted on the case cover 200 as an example, by using the snap connection between the lock body 400 and the lock body 300:

referring to fig. 2 and 3, the lock body 300 includes a lock body base 310, a mounting seat 320 formed on the lock body base 310, and a locking portion 330 movably coupled to the mounting seat 320, the lock body base 310 is fixed to a front edge of the case 100, and the mounting seat 320 is formed on a surface of the lock body base 310 to extend toward the case cover 200.

In order to reduce the contact gap between the case 100 and the case cover 200, a mounting groove extending downward is formed on the front edge of the case 100, and the depth of the mounting groove is adapted to the height of the lock 300, so that the case cover 200 is abutted with the outer edge of the case 100 in the connection state of the lock 300 and the lock 400, thereby reducing the gap generated by the connection.

Further, a sealing member is provided on the peripheral side of the case cover 200 for sealing a gap between the case cover 200 and the case body 100.

The latch 400 is provided on the case cover 200, and its mounting position is also located at the front edge of the case cover 200, corresponding to the position of the latch 300.

Comprises a latch base plate 410 and a clamping part 420 formed on the latch base plate 410 and extending outwards, wherein a clamping groove 421 is formed on the clamping part 420, and in the installation state, the locking part 330 is positioned in the clamping groove 421.

Referring to fig. 4 and 5, in some embodiments of the present application, the number of the mounting seats 320 is two, and a mounting gap is formed between adjacent mounting seats 320.

Each mounting seat 320 is formed with a horizontal movable channel 321, and each movable channel 321 is internally provided with a locking part 330, and the locking parts 330 are connected in the corresponding movable channels 321 through fasteners 331.

The two locking portions 330 are symmetrically arranged, each locking portion 330 comprises an elastic portion 332 and a locking piece 333 connected to one end of the elastic portion 332, the other end of the elastic portion 332 is connected to a fastening piece 331, and when the elastic portion 332 is in a loose state, the locking piece 333 extends into the installation gap partially.

The width of the clamping part 420 is matched with the installation gap, the clamping part 420 is slightly smaller than the installation gap, and a clamping groove 421 is respectively arranged at one side of the clamping part 420, which is contacted with the two installation seats 320.

The locking pieces 333 are of spherical ball structures, when the case cover 200 is in an open state, the clamping portions 420 are separated from the locking portions 330, when the case cover 200 is covered, the clamping portions 420 gradually extend into the installation gaps, the locking pieces 333 on two sides respectively contract inwards towards the movable channels 321 on two sides under the action of the clamping portions 420, the elastic portions 332 are compressed, when the positions of the clamping grooves 421 on the clamping portions 420 correspond to the positions of the locking pieces 333, the elastic portions 332 are reset, the locking pieces 333 are ejected into the clamping grooves 421, and the case cover 200 is covered on the case body 100.

At this time, the case cover 200 is always covered on the case body 100 without an external force, and when the user needs to open the case cover 200, the case cover 200 is lifted up by hand, so that the locking piece 333 is disengaged from the locking groove 421.

Referring to fig. 6 and 7, in another embodiment of the present application, the number of the mounting seats 320 is one, the movable passages 321 penetrating through the mounting seats 320 are formed, and the locking portions 330 include elastic portions 332 formed in the movable passages 321 and locking pieces 333 connected to both ends of the elastic portions 332.

Unlike the previous embodiment, the elastic portion 332 in this embodiment is an integral structure, and the middle of the elastic portion 332 is fixed on the inner wall of the movable channel 321, and two ends of the elastic portion 332 extend toward two ends of the movable channel 321 respectively.

The clamping portion 420 comprises two clamping plates 422 arranged at intervals, a clamping gap 423 is formed between the two clamping plates 422, the size of the clamping gap 423 is matched with the size of the mounting seat 320, the clamping groove 421 is located on the inner side of the clamping plates 422, namely, the clamping grooves 421 on the two clamping plates 422 are oppositely arranged and are located on one side close to the mounting seat 320.

The locking groove 421 is arc-shaped, and is adapted to a part of the shape of the locking piece 333, so that the locking piece 333 can be connected and matched in the locking groove 421 when the case cover 200 and the case 100 are in a connected state.

When the cover 200 is opened, the elastic portion 332 is in a free state, and at this time, the locking pieces 333 at both ends of the elastic portion 332 extend to both ends of the movable channel 321.
