(20) Referring to FIG. 1, FIG. 2, and FIG. 9, the pin-type connection apparatus provided in the present application is described. The pin-type connection apparatus includes a first connecting seat 1, a second connecting seat 2, a connecting shaft 3, and a locking component 4, a receiving hole 211 and a locking hole 212 on the adjacent side of the receiving hole 211 are disposed on the second connecting seat 2, one end of the connecting shaft 3 is fastened to the first connecting seat 1, a clamping hole 31 is disposed at the other end of the connecting shaft 3, the connecting shaft 3 can extend into the receiving hole 211, a first clamping protrusion 32 is disposed in the clamping hole 31, a second clamping protrusion 41 is disposed at one end of the locking component 4, and the locking component 4 can pass through the locking hole 212 and extend into the clamping hole 31.

(21) When the locking component 4 is rotated to a lockout position, the first clamping protrusion 32 can abut against the second clamping protrusion 41 and restrain the second clamping protrusion 41 from exiting the clamping hole 31.

(22) When the locking component 4 is rotated to an unlock position, the second clamping protrusion 41 can exit the clamping hole 31.

(23) According to the pin-type connection apparatus provided in the present application, after the connecting shaft 3 is aligned with the receiving hole 211, the connecting shaft 3 is pushed into the receiving hole 211, and then the locking component 4 is pushed, so that the locking component 4 extends into the clamping hole 31. Then the locking component 4 is rotated, so that the first clamping protrusion 32 abuts against the second clamping protrusion 41. In this case, the first clamping protrusion 32 limits the axial direction of the locking component 4, to prevent the second clamping protrusion 41 from exiting the clamping hole 31, so that the locking component 4 locks the connecting shaft 3 in the receiving hole 211, and the connecting shaft 3 connects the first connecting seat 1 and the second connecting seat 2 together. In comparison with the prior art, the pin-type connection apparatus has a simple structure and is easy to operate.

(27) Specifically, referring to FIG. 9, second clamping protrusions 41 are in a one-to-one correspondence with first clamping protrusions 32. If the first clamping protrusions 32 are two, the second clamping protrusions 41 are also two, which are respectively staggered on the outer circumference of the locking component 4. When the second clamping protrusion 41 extends into the clamping hole 31, the second clamping protrusion 41 can pass through the place in which no first clamping protrusion 32 is disposed on the sidewall of the clamping hole 31. After the locking component 4 is rotated, the second clamping protrusion 41 abuts against the first clamping protrusion 32.

(28) Specifically, referring to FIG. 9, the second clamping protrusion 41 has a shape of an inverted cone.

(29) In actual use, the first connecting seat 1 and the second connecting seat 2 may serve as lifting beams, or the first connecting seat 1 and the second connecting seat 2 may be respectively fastened on two ends of a lifting beam, thereby facilitating splicing.

(42) The first stop member 5 is disposed on the fastening block 42, and can limit the rotation of the shaft sleeve 431.

(43) The second stop member 6 is disposed on the shaft sleeve 431, and can restrain the locking shaft 432 from moving relative to the shaft sleeve 431 in the axial direction of the locking shaft 432.

(44) The first stop member 5 can restrain the shaft sleeve 431 from rotating relative to the fastening block 42, and the second stop member 6 can restrain the locking shaft 432 from moving relative to the shaft sleeve 431 in the axial direction of the locking shaft 432. In this way, the locking shaft 432 can rotate relative to the fastening block 42, the locking shaft 432 can move relative to the fastening block 42 in the axial direction of the locking shaft 432, and also, the locking shaft 432 can be connected to the fastening block 42. Therefore, the structure is simple and easy to use, and the first clamping protrusion 32 can abut against the second clamping protrusion 41, so that the first connecting seat 1 and the second connecting seat 2 can be rapidly spliced.

(45) Specifically, the first stop member 5 and the second stop member 6 are marbles (for example, M3 marbles).

(46) Further, referring to FIG. 7 and FIG. 9, in a specific implementation of the pin-type connection apparatus provided in the present application, a first stop groove is disposed on the shaft sleeve 431, the first stop groove extends in the axial direction of the shaft sleeve 431, the first stop member 5 can extend into the first stop groove, and a groove wall of the first stop groove limits movement of the first stop member 5, so that the first stop member 5 can move only in the axial direction of the shaft sleeve 431, thereby limiting the rotation of the shaft sleeve 431. In this way, the shaft sleeve 431 can move relative to the fastening block 42 only in the axial direction of the shaft sleeve 431, and the shaft sleeve 431 can be further restrained from exiting the through hole 421.

(47) A second stop groove is disposed on the locking shaft 432, the second stop groove extends in the circumferential direction of the locking shaft 432, the second stop member 6 can extend into the second stop groove, and a groove wall of the second stop groove limits movement of the second stop member 6, so that the second stop member 6 can move only in the circumferential direction of the second stop member 6. In this way, the locking shaft 432 can move relative to the shaft sleeve 431 only in the axial direction of the locking shaft 432, so that the locking shaft 432 can only rotate, and further, the locking shaft 432 can be restrained from being detached from the shaft sleeve 431. Therefore, based on a joint position limiting function of the first stop member 5 and the second stop member 6, the locking shaft 432 can be rotatably connected to the fastening block 42 relative to the fastening block 42, facilitating rapid assembling.

(48) Further, referring to FIG. 7, in a specific implementation of the pin-type connection apparatus provided in the present application, the shaft sleeve 431 includes an extending part 4311 and an abutting part 4312, and the diameter of the through hole 421 is greater than the diameter of the extending part 4311 and less than the diameter of the abutting part 4312.

(49) When the locking component 4 is in the lockout position, a sidewall of the abutting part 4312 abuts against the fastening block 42, so that the second clamping protrusion 41 can be pushed into the clamping hole 31 to abut against the first clamping protrusion 32. When the second clamping protrusion 41 completely enters the clamping hole 31, the abutting part 4312 abuts against the fastening block 42, to restrain the second clamping protrusion 41 from further extending. Therefore, when pushing the locking assembly 4, a relatively large force can be used to push the locking component 4 without a need to consider a case in which the second clamping protrusion 41 does not fully extend into the clamping hole 31, and the locking component 4 can be pushed without touching hands, thereby avoiding the occurrence of finger pinching.

(50) Further, referring to FIG. 2 and FIG. 6, in a specific implementation of the pin-type connection apparatus provided in the present application, the locking component 4 further includes a handle 44, and the handle 44 is fastened to an end of the locking shaft 432 away from the second clamping protrusion 41, facilitating manual rotation of the locking shaft 432, and avoiding discomfort caused by directly manually rotating the locking shaft 432.

(52) Specifically, the handle 44 is sleeved at an end of the shaft sleeve 431 away from the second clamping protrusion 41.

(53) Further, referring to FIG. 2 and FIG. 6, in a specific implementation of the pin-type connection apparatus provided in the present application, the locking component 4 further includes a lockout part 45, the lockout part 45 is disposed on the handle 44, and the lockout part 45 can lock the locking shaft 432 on the fastening block 42. After the locking shaft 432 is rotated so that the first clamping protrusion 32 abuts against the second clamping protrusion 41 and the connecting shaft 3 is locked in the receiving hole 211, the lockout part 45 locks the locking shaft 432 on the fastening block 42, avoiding a case in which the second clamping protrusion 41 exits the clamping hole 31 due to further rotation of the locking shaft 432.

(54) Further, referring to FIG. 6, in a specific implementation of the pin-type connection apparatus provided in the present application, the lockout part 45 includes an elastic part 451 and a button 452, the button 452 is rotatably connected to the handle 44, one end of the elastic part 451 can be fixedly connected to the fastening block 42, and the other end is fixedly connected to the button 452.

(55) When the button 452 abuts against the locking shaft 432, the elastic part 451 locks the locking shaft 432 on the second connecting seat 2.

(56) When the button 452 is detached from the locking shaft 432, the locking shaft 432 can rotate relative to the fastening block 42. Therefore, the structure is simple and easy to operate, and rapid lockout can be implemented, so that the locking shaft 432 is stationary relative to the fastening block 42.

(57) Further, referring to FIG. 6, in a specific implementation of the pin-type connection apparatus provided in the present application, the button 452 and the locking shaft 432 are both provided with teeth, and the teeth of the button 452 can mesh with the teeth of the locking shaft 432. When the button 452 meshes with the locking shaft 432, in other words, the button 452 abuts against the locking shaft 432, the elastic part 451 is in an unstressed state. The button 452 is rotated, so that the button 452 is detached from the locking shaft 432, and the locking shaft 432 can be rotated. In this case, the elastic part 451 is stressed. When the locking shaft 432 is rotated to the lockout position, the button 452 is released, the button 452 meshes with the locking shaft 432 again, and the elastic part 451 is in the unstressed state again. In this case, the locking shaft 432 is locked on the fastening block 42. It is of relatively high stability to mesh the button 452 with the locking shaft 432 to lock the locking shaft 432 on the fastening block 42.

(58) Specifically, the elastic part 451 is a torsion spring.

(59) Specifically, referring to FIG. 6, an accommodation cavity is disposed on the handle 44, the button 452 is rotatably connected to the accommodation cavity by using a pin shaft, and then a locking cover plate is used to cover the accommodation cavity, so that the button 452 is fastened in the accommodation cavity.

(60) Specifically, a lockout plate is disposed on a fastening plate, so that one end of the torsion spring is fastened to the lockout plate.

(61) A splicing process in a preferred embodiment of the present application is as follows:

(62) The connecting shaft 3 is first aligned with the shaft hole 222 (as shown in FIG. 10 and FIG. 5), and then the first connecting seat 1 is pushed to approach the second connecting seat 2, so that the connecting shaft 3 extends into the receiving hole 211 (as shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 11). Then the handle 44 is pushed, so that the second clamping protrusion 41 approaches the first clamping protrusion 32 until the second clamping protrusion 41 extends into the clamping hole 31 (as shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 12). Then the button 452 is pressed, and the handle 44 is also rotated until the first clamping protrusion 32 abuts against the second clamping protrusion 41 (as shown in FIG. 9 and FIG. 1). The button 452 is released, so that the first connecting seat 1 and the second connecting seat 2 are connected together (as shown in FIG. 1). Splicing efficiency is high, and the splicing is stable, firm, and easy to operate.

(63) The foregoing descriptions are merely example embodiments of the present application, but are not intended to limit the present application. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, and the like made without departing from the spirit and principle of the present application should fall within the protection scope of the present application.
