EMBODIMENTS OF THE INVENTION
[0031] The following examples are further explanations and supplements to the present invention, and do not constitute any limitation to the present invention.
[0032] As shown in
[0033] As shown in
[0034] As shown in
[0035] As shown in
[0036] The shape of the first magnetic member 11 and the second magnetic member 22 is not limited, and they are preferably the same in shape. In this embodiment, the first magnetic member 11 and the second magnetic member 22 are circular magnets.
[0037] As shown in
[0038] As shown in
[0039] As shown in
[0040] As shown in
[0041] In the default state, that is, when the male buckle 20 and the female buckle 10 are separated and not subjected to external force, the position of the locking portion 141 can be set to protrude within the range of the fixing hole 151, or it can also be set to not protrude within the range of the fixing hole 151. In the traditional safety buckle provided with elastic members, in the default state, the locking portion 141 must be set to protrude within the range of the fixing hole 151. When the locking member 14 is actuated by magnetic force, the default position of the locking portion 141 can be flexibly set.
[0042] In some embodiments, in the default state, as shown in 5A of
[0043] In some embodiments, in the default state, as shown in 4A of
[0044] When the locking tongue 21 enters the fixing hole 151, the second magnetic member 22 in the locking tongue 21 can interact with the third magnetic member 13. The third magnetic member 13 and the second magnetic member 22 can attract or repel each other. At this time, the first magnetic member 11, the second magnetic member 22, and the third magnetic member 13 interact with each other through magnetic force, so that the locking tongue 21 can be inserted into the locking hole 12, and the locking portion 141 can lock the locking tongue 21 so that the male buckle 20 and the female buckle 10 are locked and connected together.
[0045] The first magnetic member 11 and the second magnetic member 22 are attracted to each other to guide the locking tongue 21 into the locking hole 12. The third magnetic member 13 and the first magnetic member 11 and the second magnetic member 22 may attract or repel each other. When the third magnetic member 13 and the first magnetic member 11 are attracted to each other, the third magnetic member 13 and the second magnetic member 22 repel each other; when the third magnetic member 13 and the first magnetic member 11 repels each other, the third magnetic member 13 and the second magnetic member 22 attract each other.
[0046] The magnitude of the attraction and repulsion between the third magnetic member 13 and the first magnetic member 11 and the second magnetic member 22 can be set according to needs, and the final join force should be able to make the locking portion 141 of the locking member 14 lock the locking tongue 21 of the male buckle 20. In some embodiments, the attractive force between the third magnetic member 13 and the first magnetic member 11 and the second magnetic member 22 may be greater than the repulsive force, and the locking portion 141 is protruded within the range of the fixing hole 151 by attracting the third magnetic member 13, the locking tongue 21 is locked. In some embodiments, it may be that the repulsive force between the third magnetic member 13 and the first magnetic member 11 and the second magnetic member 22 may be greater than the attractive force, and the locking portion 141 is protruded within the range of the fixing hole 151 by repelling the third magnetic member 13, the locking tongue 21 is locked.
[0047] The third magnetic member 13 and the locking portion 141 may be distributed on the same side of the fixing hole 151 (as shown in
[0048] As shown in
[0049] As shown in
[0050] When the locking tongue 21 is inserted into the locking hole 12, the magnetic force among the first magnetic member 11, the second magnetic member 22, and the third magnetic member 13 can maintain the locked state, so that the male buckle 20 and the female buckle 10 are locked and connected together. When unlocking is required, the locking member 14 is forced to move in the female buckle 10 by external force, so that the locking portion 141 moves in the direction of exiting the fixing hole 151; when the locking portion 141 moves to a certain position, the locking tongue 21 can freely escape from the locking hole 12, thereby achieving unlocking.
[0051] The manner in which the locking member 14 is prompted to move by external force is not limited. For example, in some embodiments, the locking member 14 can be forced to move by pressing so that the locking portion 141 moves in the direction of exiting the fixing hole 151. In some embodiments, the locking member 14 can be forced to move by pulling outwards so that the locking portion 141 moves in the direction of exiting the fixing hole 151. In some embodiments, the locking member 14 can be forced to move by dialing so that the locking portion 141 moves in the direction of exiting the fixing hole 151. In some embodiments, the locking member 14 can be forced to move by rotating, so that the locking portion 141 moves in the direction of exiting the fixing hole 151.
[0052] After the locking tongue 21 freely escapes from the locking hole 12, when the external force is moved away, the magnetic force between the first magnetic member 11 and the third magnetic member 13 can actuate the locking member 14 to reset and keep the locking member 14 in a balanced position. The balance position can be such that the locking portion 141 protrudes within the range of the fixing hole 151, or it can be such that the locking portion 141 does not protrude within the range of the fixing hole 151, which is specifically determined based on the properties of the magnetic force between the third magnetic member 13 and the first magnetic member 11.
[0053] In order to describe the structure of the present invention more specifically, different embodiments are described below:
Embodiment 1
[0054] As shown in
[0055] As shown in
[0056] As shown in
[0057] As shown in
[0058] As shown in
[0059] As shown in
[0060] As shown in
[0061] The locking member 14 is movably arranged in the housing 15. As shown in
[0062] As shown in
[0063] As shown in
[0064] As shown in
[0065] The third magnetic member 13 is disposed in the mounting position 142 of the locking member 14. The position of the third magnetic member 13 is fixed relative to the locking member 14. Since the locking member 14 is movably arranged in the housing 15, the third magnetic member 13 and the locking member 14 can move synchronously.
[0066] As shown in
[0067] In this embodiment, the first magnetic member 11 and the second magnetic member 22 are circular magnets that attract each other. The third magnetic member 13 is a rectangular magnet and repels the first magnetic member 11; when the locking tongue 21 enters the locking hole 12, the third magnetic member 13 attracts the second magnetic member 22.
[0068] As shown in 4A of
[0069] When the male buckle 20 and the female buckle 10 are approached in the locking direction, the magnetic attraction force between the first magnetic member 11 and the second magnetic member 22 will cause the locking tongue 21 of the male buckle 20 to align with the locking hole 12 of the female buckle 10 and insert into it. Since the locking portion 141 is outside the range of the fixing hole 151, the locking tongue 21 can directly enters the locking hole 12 during the insertion process without pushing the locking portion 141, thereby particularly facilitating for inserting the male buckle 20 into the female buckle 10.
[0070] As shown in 4B of
[0071] When it is necessary to unlock, pull the pull rope 144 or the pull ring to move the locking portion 141 in the direction of exiting the fixing hole 151 to withdraw from the groove portion 212 of the locking tongue 21, so that the male buckle 20 and the female buckle 10 can separate from each other to achieve unlocking.
Embodiment 2
[0072] The basic structure of this embodiment is the same as that of embodiment 1, the difference is that in the default state, the first magnetic member 11 and the third magnetic member 13 repel each other so that the locking portion 141 slightly protrudes within the range of the fixing hole 151.
[0073] When the male buckle 20 and the female buckle 10 are approached in the locking direction, the magnetic attraction force between the first magnetic member 11 and the second magnetic member 22 will cause the locking tongue 21 of the male buckle 20 to align with the locking hole 12 of the female buckle 10 and insert into it. During the insertion process, the locking tongue 21 pushes the locking portion 141 away and continues to move forward in the locking direction. When the locking tongue 21 enters the locking hole 12, the second magnetic member 22 and the third magnetic member 13 attract each other, and the attraction force therebetween will overcome the repulsive force between the first magnetic member 11 and the third magnetic member 13 to attract the third magnetic member 13 moves towards the locking tongue 21, so that the locking portion 141 moves towards the locking tongue 21 and is locked into the groove portion 212 of the locking tongue 21, thereby making the male buckle 20 and the locking tongue 21 of the female buckle 10 connected together.
[0074] When it is necessary to unlock, pull the pull rope 144 or the pull ring to move the locking portion 141 in the direction of exiting the fixing hole 151 to withdraw from the groove portion 212 of the locking tongue 21, so that the male buckle 20 and the female buckle 10 can separate from each other to achieve unlocking.
Embodiment 3
[0075] The basic structure of this embodiment is the same as that of the first embodiment. The difference is that the third magnetic member 13 is different from the first magnetic member 11 and the second magnetic member 22 in terms of magnetic arrangement.
[0076] In this embodiment, the third magnetic member 13 attracts the first magnetic member 11; when the locking tongue 21 enters the locking hole 12, the third magnetic member 13 repels the second magnetic member 22, and the attractive force between the third magnetic member 13 and the first magnetic member 11 is greater than the repulsive force between the second magnetic member 22 and the first magnetic member 11.
[0077] As shown in 5A of
[0078] When the male buckle 20 and the female buckle 10 are approached in the locking direction, the magnetic attraction force between the first magnetic member 11 and the second magnetic member 22 will cause the locking tongue 21 of the male buckle 20 to align with the locking hole 12 of the female buckle 10 and insert into it. As shown in 5B of
[0079] When it is necessary to unlock, pull the pull rope 144 or the pull ring to move the locking portion 141 in the direction of exiting the fixing hole 151 to withdraw from the groove portion 212 of the locking tongue 21, so that the male buckle 20 and the female buckle 10 can separate from each other to achieve unlocking.
[0080] When unlocked, after the male buckle 20 is separated from the female buckle 10, the first magnetic member 11 and the third magnetic member 13 attract each other to actuate the locking member 14 to reset, so that the locking portion 141 protrudes within the range of the fixing hole 151.
Embodiment 4
[0081] As shown in
[0082] As shown in
[0083] The structure of the housing 15 and the first magnetic member 11 is the same as that of the first embodiment, and will not be repeated in this embodiment.
[0084] As shown in
[0085] As shown in
[0086] As shown in
[0087] As shown in
[0088] As shown in
[0089] In this embodiment, the first magnetic member 11 and the second magnetic member 22 are circular magnets that attract each other. The third magnetic member 13 is a rectangular magnet that attracts the first magnetic member 11; when the locking tongue 21 enters the locking hole 12, the third magnetic member 13 repels the second magnetic member 22.
[0090] As shown in 9A of
[0091] When the male buckle 20 and the female buckle 10 are approached in the locking direction, the magnetic attraction force between the first magnetic member 11 and the second magnetic member 22 will cause the locking tongue 21 of the male buckle 20 to align with the locking hole 12 of the female buckle 10 and insert into it. Since the locking portion 141 is outside the range of the fixing hole 151, the locking tongue 21 can directly enter the locking hole 12 during the insertion process without pushing the locking portion 141, thereby particularly facilitating for inserting the male buckle 20 into the female buckle 10.
[0092] As shown in 9B of
[0093] When it is necessary to unlock, pull the pull rope 144 or the pull ring to move the locking portion 141 in the direction of exiting the fixing hole 151 to withdraw from the groove portion 212 of the locking tongue 21, so that the male buckle 20 and the female buckle 10 can separate from each other to achieve unlocking.
[0094] When the unlocking is completed, after the locking tongue 21 of the male buckle 20 withdraws from the locking hole 12, the first magnetic member 11 and the third magnetic member 13 attract each other so that the locking member 14 remains the state that its locking portion 141 protrudes within the range of the hole 151.
Embodiment 5
[0095] The basic structure of this embodiment is the same as that of Embodiment 4, the difference is that the third magnetic member 13 is different from the first magnetic member 11 and the second magnetic member 22 in terms of magnetic arrangement.
[0096] In this embodiment, the third magnetic member 13 repels the first magnetic member 11; when the locking tongue 21 enters the locking hole 12, the third magnetic member 13 attracts the second magnetic member 22, and the repulsive force between the third magnetic member 13 and the first magnetic member 11 is greater than the attractive force between the second magnetic member 22 and the first magnetic member 11.
[0097] As shown in 10A of
[0098] When the male buckle 20 and the female buckle 10 are approached in the locking direction, the magnetic attraction force between the first magnetic member 11 and the second magnetic member 22 will cause the locking tongue 21 of the male buckle 20 to align with the locking hole 12 of the female buckle 10 and insert into it. As shown in 10B of
[0099] When it is necessary to unlock, pull the pull rope 144 or the pull ring to move the locking portion 141 in the direction of exiting the fixing hole 151 to withdraw from the groove portion 212 of the locking tongue 21, so that the male buckle 20 and the female buckle 10 can separate from each other to achieve unlocking.
[0100] After unlocking, when the male buckle 20 is separated from the female buckle 10, the first magnetic member 11 and the third magnetic member 13 repel each other and can actuate the locking member 14 to reset, so that the locking portion 141 remains within the range of the fixing hole 151.
[0101] Although the present invention has been disclosed through the above embodiments, the scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Without departing from the concept of the present invention, the above components can be replaced with similar or equivalent elements understood by those skilled in the art.
