(a) Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a cabinet enclosure handle, and more particularly to a handle structure installed on a front door of cabinet of a industry computer, wherein the handle can be automatically ejected from a handle seat to be easily held and rotated. The handle structure is provided with the advantages that a cost can be reduced due to its simple structure, and it is fast to assemble and easy to hold.
(b) Description of the Prior Art
It is known that an ordinary industry computer is installed in a casing of large cabinet, and in order to avoid a touch in mistake by an non working member or during an operation, a handle structure with a lock is installed on a front surface of the cabinet casing. Referring to
According to the aforementioned structures, the handle a2 can be pulled out and rotated only when the lock a4 is opened. By rotating the handle a2, along with the rotating gear a31 of latch structure a3, a limited movement in a vertical direction will be generated to the sliding plate a12, such that the U-shape chunk a122 of the sliding plate a12 can be escaped from the latch part of frame of cabinet, thereby achieving a function of opening the door. In addition, as this device has a beautiful shape and a firm structure, the practicability and purpose of opening the door are accurately achieved by rotating the handle. However, as the device has a complicated structure and a variety of components, and fitness should be taken care of during manufacturing, it is easy to increase a cost and difficulty in manufacturing; therefore an improvement is required.
The primary object of the present invention is to provide an cabinet handle structure wherein the handle can be automatically ejected from a handle seat to be easily held and rotated. The handle structure is provided with the advantages that a cost can be reduced due to its simple structure, and it is fast to assemble and easy to hold.
Accordingly, the present invention comprises primarily a handle seat, a handle, a spindle kit, and a lock, wherein the spindle kit includes a Y-shape fixing pin, an elastic member, two gaskets, and a hook piece. The Y-shape fixing pin is provided with a ball-shape top end, and an opening, which is in a Y shape if being viewed from a side, in a center for installing the elastic member. After the elastic member is emplaced into the opening of the Y-shape fixing pin, they are pivoted to pivot holes of a pivot end of the handle. The lock is installed in a fixing slot of locking end of the handle, and a bottom of Y-shape fixing pin, followed by the gaskets and hook piece, are passed through a rotating hole on the handle seat and fixed together.
In assembling the aforementioned structures, the handle seat of handle structure is first installed in a handle hole on an edge of a door leaf of the cabinet, such that the hook piece of handle structure is protruded from a rear surface of the door leaf, and is then directly latched to a vertical frame of the cabinet with a latch part on the hook piece, to achieve a purpose of fixing. The assembling is very fast and convenient. On the other hand, the handle will be automatically ejected after opening the lock. Therefore, the handle only needs to be rotated in usage, and the hook piece will be escaped from the vertical frame, thereby achieving the purposes of opening the door leaf of cabinet and easiness in usage. The present invention is provided with the advantages that a cost of manufacturing can be reduced due to its simple structure, and it is easier and more convenient to use due to a reduced friction at a contact place between the top end of Y-shape fixing pin and plastic components, resulting from the ball-shape design.
To enable a further understanding of the said objectives and the technological methods of the invention herein, the brief description of the drawings below is followed by the detailed description of the preferred embodiments.
Referring to
The handle 20, which is made into a same shape and size as those of the holding slot 11 of the handle seat 10, is provided with a long slot at a rear side; whereas, two pivot holes 21a are located at two sides of a pivoting end 21 on a top of the long slot, and a fixing slot 22a is located at a locking end 22 on a bottom of the long slot.
The spindle kit 30 includes a Y-shape fixing pin 31, an elastic member 32, two gaskets 33, and a hook piece 34, wherein the Y-shape fixing pin 31 is provided with a ball-shape top end whose center part is provided with an opening 31a, which is roughly in a Y shape if being viewed from a side, for emplacing the elastic member 32. After the elastic member 32 is emplaced into the opening 31a of the Y-shape fixing pin 31, they are pivoted to the pivot holes 21a of pivoting end 21 of the handle 20. The lock 40 is installed in the fixing slot 22a of locking end 22 of the handle 20, and a bottom of the Y-shape fixing pin 30, followed by the gaskets 33 and hook piece 34, are passed through the rotating hole 11a on handle seat 11a and fixed together.
Referring to
Accordingly, the present invention, with the design of handle, handle seat, and ball-shape spindle kit, is provided with the advantages that a cost can be reduced due to its simple structure, a friction force can be effectively reduced upon rotating, and it is fast and convenient to assemble and is easy to hold and rotate the handle for opening the door leaf.
It is of course to be understood that the embodiments described herein is merely illustrative of the principles of the invention and that a wide variety of modifications thereto may be effected by persons skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as set forth in the following claims.
