Description

復位滑軌裝置 Reset rail device

本發明是關於一種滑軌裝置,特別是關於一種具有自動復位功能之復位滑軌裝置。 The present invention relates to a rail assembly, and more particularly to a reset rail assembly having an automatic reset function.

生活中常見各種利用滑軌之機構,諸如抽屜、櫃子或者任何會使用滑行動作的產品,在活動空間逐漸窄縮的後現代社會,此類產品更加受到重視。滑軌機構在現今的應用已相當普遍,於各種應用場合皆能針對其需要進行設計調整,以達成往復之外的附加功能,例如自動定位或復位。 In life, there are various kinds of mechanisms that use slide rails, such as drawers, cabinets, or any products that use sliding motion. In the post-modern society where the activity space is gradually narrowed, such products are more valued. Slide rail mechanisms are quite common in today's applications, and can be designed and adjusted for various applications in order to achieve additional functions beyond reciprocation, such as automatic positioning or resetting.

習知之復位滑軌技術多利用軸向設置之彈簧拉伸後嵌卡於一固定物達到定位功能,並於解除固定物限制時,藉由彈簧收縮力來復位。然而長時間使用狀態下,彈簧持續維持張緊的狀態,易使彈簧迅速疲乏而喪失復位功能。此外,傳統習知復位滑軌技術其機械結構複雜且故障率高,造價成本十分高昂,更有壽命短、維修困難等嚴重缺點。 The conventional reset rail technology mostly uses an axially disposed spring to be stretched and clamped to a fixed object to achieve the positioning function, and is reset by the spring contraction force when the fixed object is released. However, in the long-term use state, the spring continues to maintain the tension state, which tends to cause the spring to quickly fatigue and lose the reset function. In addition, the conventional reset slide rail technology has a complicated mechanical structure and a high failure rate, and the cost is very high, and has serious shortcomings such as short life and difficulty in maintenance.

有鑑於此、本發明針對上述情況提出一種利用簡單結構與安定作動即可完成習知技術功能之復位滑軌裝置,以摒除前述復位滑軌技術的缺點。 In view of the above, the present invention proposes a reset rail device that can perform the conventional technical functions by using a simple structure and a stable operation to eliminate the disadvantages of the aforementioned reset rail technology.

FIG. 4B is a schematic diagram showing the relative state of the sliding unit and the curved track in the first operating state according to FIG. 4A. Figure 5A is a schematic diagram showing the second actuation state of Figure 4A. Figure 5B is a schematic diagram showing the relative movement of the sliding unit and the curved track in the second operating state according to Figure 5A. Figure 6A shows the relative orientation of the push slider and the swing reset Figure. Figure 6B is a schematic diagram showing the relative arrangement of the sliding unit and the curved track according to Figure 6A. The sliding unit 430 slides in the curved track 420. The limiting path 431A of the sliding groove 431 is just opposite to the sliding path of the driving portion 310, so that the driving portion 310 slides along the sliding path on the curved track 420. The movement is blocked by the latching portion 433 and is limited to the limit path 431A of the sliding groove 431. Therefore, when the sliding unit 430 is located at the to-be-receiving position P1, the driving portion 310 enters the limiting path 431A in the first sliding direction d1 to push against the sliding unit 430, and when the spring 440 passes the transition position P2, the spring 440 generates The first elastic tensile force pulls the sliding unit 430 to move the sliding unit 430 to the converging position P3. However, the sliding unit 430 is limited by the curved track 420, and at the same time, the limiting unit 450 limits the relationship of the limiting portion 432, so that the sliding unit 430 stays at the converging position P3.

When the sliding unit 430 is located at the converging position P3, the driving portion 310 moves in the second sliding direction d2, so that the driving portion 310 is limited to the limiting path 431A and is pushed against the locking portion 433, and the spring 440 passes through the transition position P2. The spring 440 generates a first elastic tensile force to pull the sliding unit 430 to move the spring 440 to the to-be-retracted position P1. The sliding unit 430 is limited by the curved track 420, and at the same time, the limiting unit 450 limits the relationship of the limiting portion 432 to make the sliding The pendulum unit 430 stays at the to-be-collected position P1.

請一併參閱第9A圖至第11B圖,其係一系列繪示推動滑件往第一滑移方向推抵彈擺復位件,且滑擺單元位於收束位置時之連續作動示意圖。當滑擺單元430位於收束位置P3,且帶動部310以第二滑移方向d2移出限位道431A而未將滑擺單元430推抵通過過渡位置P2時,滑擺單元430受彈簧440之彈性拉伸力拉伸而回復至收束位置P3。而後,帶動部310再次以第一滑移方向d1滑向滑擺單元430,而使帶動部310進入容錯道431B時,帶動部310會對卡掣部433施予朝向容錯位置P4之壓迫力,使滑擺單元430往容錯位置P4移動,此時彈簧440產生第二彈性拉伸力,並帶動滑擺單元430再度回復至收束位置P3,同時帶動部310受滑擺單元430的限位道431A及卡掣部433嵌卡而位於限位道431A內。 Please refer to FIG. 9A to FIG. 11B together, which is a series of diagrams showing the continuous operation of pushing the sliding member against the spring-loading resetting member in the first sliding direction, and the sliding unit is in the converging position. When the sliding unit 430 is located at the converging position P3, and the driving portion 310 moves out of the limiting path 431A in the second sliding direction d2 without pushing the sliding unit 430 through the transition position P2, the sliding unit 430 is subjected to the spring 440 The elastic tensile force is stretched to return to the converging position P3. Then, the driving portion 310 slides to the swing unit 430 again in the first slip direction d1, and when the driving portion 310 enters the faulty path 431B, the driving portion 310 applies the pressing force toward the fault-tolerant position P4 to the latch portion 433. The sliding unit 430 is moved to the fault-tolerant position P4. At this time, the spring 440 generates a second elastic tensile force, and drives the sliding unit 430 to return to the converging position P3 again, and the driving portion 310 is restricted by the sliding unit 430. The 431A and the cassette portion 433 are embedded in the limit path 431A.
