Abstract
An improved reel is described. The reel includes a fine-tuning structure for adjusting the length of wires or cords drawn from the reel and a button component for winding the wires or cords. Thereby, the length of cords or wires is adjusted to a desired level in multiple stages as necessary, and the cords or wires of such reel are collected quickly and smoothly.
Description
- 1. Field of the Invention
- The present invention generally relates to a reel, and more particularly, to an improved structure of a reel including a fine-tuning structure for adjusting the length of wires or cords drawn from the reel and including a button component for winding the wires or cords, which is used to control reeling in and out the cords or wires of manifold devices such as electronic products, computers, phones, and communication equipment.
- 2. Description of Related Art
- As the technology is progressed ceaselessly, the structures of computers, phones, as well as electric and communication equipment are developed to meet the requirements of the present market. However, it is always inconvenient to store the cords or wires of these devices. To solve the problem, various kinds of reels are provided to collect the cords or wires and control the length of cords or wires in use.
- Referring to
FIG. 1 , areel 10 is utilized by pulling out the wires orcords 101 at two ends with hands, which is single-staged. That is, thereel 10 is not fixed until the cords thereof are completely drawn out. In order to roll up thecords 101, users need to drag and release thecords 101 at two ends simultaneously, and thereby thecords 101 are collected automatically. Another kind ofreel 10 belongs to a multi-staged reel, in which thecords 101 are drawn out and fixed in multiple stages. Though thecords 101 can be fixed in multiple stages while being pulled, it is difficult to define the length of thecords 101 and then adjust the length. Moreover, it is still unfavorable to reel out thecords 101 at two ends concurrently because the process needs to be repeated several times for entire collection of thecords 101. - In view of the aforesaid disadvantages, there is a need not only to adjust and define the length of cords or wires in use, but also to wind the cords or wires through such an easy approach as pressing a button. Hence, a reel that satisfies the concerns of convenience and utility is investigated and filed as an U.S. patent application, which has been granted as U.S. Pat. No. 7,147,177 now.
- Based on the granted patent, an improved structure of a reel is further investigated and provided in this application.
- It is one object of the invention to provide an improved structure of a reel. The reel is designed and configured based on the structure described in U.S. Pat. No. 7,147,177. The reel includes a fine-tuning structure for adjusting the length of wires or cords drawn from the reel and a button component for winding the wires or cords. By this reel, the length of cords or wires is adjusted to a desired level in multiple stages. Additionally, the cords or wires of such reel are collected quickly and smoothly.

FIG. 2 is an exploded diagram showing various components in a reel according to an embodiment of the invention. As shown, abase trench 201 is disposed in the middle of abottom housing 20. Aspring trench 202 is depressed in the middle of thebase trench 201 for accommodating aspring 30. A plurality ofplugholes 203 is positioned between thebase trench 201 and thespring trench 202. - Referring to
FIG. 4 , amovable shaft assembly 40 includes abottom plate 401.Several bumps 402 beveled in the same direction are disposed on the edge of thebottom plate 401. Anaxial support 403 with agroove 403 a is disposed in the middle of thebottom plate 401. - Also referring to
FIG. 3 , atubular shaft assembly 50 includes abase plate 501. Atubular shaft 502 with agroove 502 a is extended from the middle of thebase plate 501. Thebase plate 501 further includes a plurality of slidingopenings 503. A plurality ofplugs 504 is disposed at the bottom of thebase plate 501. - The
axial support 403 of themovable shaft assembly 40 is inserted into thetubular shaft 502. Thebumps 402 on thebottom plate 401 of themovable shaft assembly 40 are correspondingly put in thesliding openings 503 on thebase plate 501 of thetubular shaft assembly 50, and may move back and forth therein. Theplugs 504 at the bottom of thebase plate 501 are inset to theplugholes 203 of thebottom housing 20, respectively. As such, thespring 30 within thespring trench 202 pushes thebottom plate 401 of themovable shaft assembly 40 constantly. A rotatingdisc 60 is provided for containingwound cords 70 and has acoil spring 80. The rotatingdisc 60 is set in thetubular shaft 502 of thetubular shaft assembly 50 and rotates about thetubular shaft 502. The initial end of thecoil spring 80 is attached to thegroove 403 a of theaxial support 403 and thegroove 502 a of thetubular shaft 502. The terminal of thecoil spring 80 is fixed on the edge of the rotatingdisc 60. Referring toFIG. 5 andFIG. 6 ,several fastening trenches 601 in the form complementary to thebeveled bumps 402 of themovable shaft assembly 40 are depressed at the bottom of the rotatingdisc 60 and engage with thebumps 402. Atop housing 20 a covers the resultant structure. Atube 901 of abutton component 90 passes through a through hole in the center of thetop housing 20 a, and is sleeved onto theaxial support 403 of themovable shaft assembly 40, so as to constitute areel 2000. - Simultaneously referring to
FIGS. 3-6 , the rotatingdisc 60 is turned by drawing out thecords 70 of thereel 2000. Thebeveled fastening trenches 601 at the bottom of the rotatingdisc 60 mate with thebeveled bumps 402 on thebottom plate 401 of themovable shaft assembly 40, so both of them rotate in the same direction. Thespring 30 pushes against the bottom of thebottom plate 401; hence, thebumps 402 and the fasteningtrenches 601 are fastened together and separated from each other alternately and repeatedly, i.e. themovable shaft assembly 40 axially moves up and down continuously. As the rotatingdisc 60 rotates, thefastening trenches 601 thereof engage with thebeveled bumps 402 on thebottom plate 401 of themovable shaft assembly 40, and the fasteningtrenches 601 and thebeveled bumps 402 are then fixed mutually. When they are separated, thecords 70 can be drawn out in multiple stages, and its length is adjusted to a desired level as required. Moreover, thecoil spring 80 is reeled in towards thetubular shaft 502 while the rotatingdisc 60 is turned, so as to create a strong reverse tension. Since thefastening trenches 601 at the bottom of the rotatingdisc 60 are coupled with thebeveled bumps 402 on thebottom plate 401 of themovable shaft assembly 40, it avoids the opposite rotation of the rotatingdisc 60 and the rolling up of the cords caused by the reverse tension from thecoil spring 80. Referring toFIG. 7 , in order to roll up thecords 70, thebutton component 90 is pressed to force themovable shaft assembly 40 to move downwards. As a result, thebumps 402 are separated from thefastening trenches 601 of therotating disc 60, and the reverse tension from thecoil spring 80 is released. Meanwhile, therotating disc 60 is turned in the opposite direction to wind and collect thecords 70 in thereel 2000. - In accordance with the description above, the reel structure possesses the benefit of adjusting the cords reeled in or out in multiple stages. The structure is not known to the public, and has utility and novelty. It is appreciated if the application is examined and granted.
- The aforementioned embodiments of the present invention are intended to be illustrative only. Numerous alternative embodiments may be devised by those skilled in the art without departing from the scope of the following claims.
