Patent Application
20190219085
The present invention relates to a board connector, and more particularly to a connecting assembly for connecting boards.
The connection between boards usually uses screws. However, the installation of screws requires the use of an electric or manual screwdriver, which is inconvenient for use. For this reason, there is a connecting assembly on the market. The connecting assembly mainly includes a rod member and a buckle member. The rod member is mated with the buckle member for connecting boards. However, due to the unreasonable structure design of this connecting assembly, it is also inconvenient for use.
In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the primary object of the present invention is to provide a connecting assembly for connecting boards, which can effectively solve the problem that the existing connecting assembly is used inconveniently.
In order to achieve the aforesaid object, the connecting assembly of the present invention comprises a rod member and a buckle member. The rod member includes a head portion, a rod body and a tip portion which are integrally formed and connected in sequence. The head portion has an outer diameter greater than that of the rod body. The rod body is formed with an annular engaging groove. The annular engaging groove is disposed close to the tip portion. The buckle member is formed with an engaging hole penetrating through a circumferential side of the buckle member. The engaging hole has an inner diameter less than the outer diameter of the rod body. The tip portion passes through the engaging hole. The engaging hole is engaged with the annular engaging groove. An inner end surface of the buckle member is formed with a through slot for the buckle member to be elastically deformed. The through slot communicates with the engaging hole. An outer end surface of the buckle member is formed with a cross-shaped groove.
Preferably, the tip portion of the rod body has a cross-shaped structure.
Preferably, two ends of the annular engaging groove are formed with curved surfaces, respectively. Two ends of the engaging hole are formed with curved stepped surfaces, respectively. The curved stepped surfaces are mated with the corresponding curved surfaces.
Preferably, the cross-shaped groove is provided with an indicating arrow.
Compared with the prior art, the present invention has obvious advantages and beneficial effects. Specifically, it can be seen from the above technical solution:
By using the engaging hole to engage with the annular engaging groove, the connection of the boards is more firm because the present invention adopts a circumferential joint. Besides, the buckle member is provided with the cross-shaped groove, which makes it easier for the user to adjust the direction when in use. The structure design is reasonable and more convenient for use.
Embodiments of the present invention will now be described, by way of example only, with reference to the accompanying drawings.
As shown in
The rod member 10 includes a head portion 11, a rod body 12 and a tip portion 13 which are integrally formed and connected in sequence. The outer diameter of the head portion 11 is greater than the outer diameter of the rod body 12. The rod body 12 is formed with an annular engaging groove 12. The annular engaging groove 12 is disposed close to the tip portion 13. In this embodiment, the tip portion 13 of the rod body 12 has a cross-shaped structure, which can save 15% of the material consumption and lower the manufacturing cost.
The buckle member 21 is formed with an engaging hole 21 penetrating through a circumferential side of the buckle member 20. The inner diameter of the engaging hole 21 is less than the outer diameter of the rod body 12. The tip portion 13 passes through the engaging hole 21. The engaging hole 21 is engaged with the annular engaging groove 101. An inner end surface of the buckle member 20 is formed with a through slot 22 for the buckle member 20 to be elastically deformed. The through slot 22 communicates with the engaging hole 21. In this embodiment, two ends of the annular engaging groove 101 are formed with curved surfaces 102, respectively. Two ends of the engaging hole 21 are formed with curved stepped surfaces 23, respectively. The curved stepped surfaces 23 are mated with the corresponding curved surfaces 102, such that the rod member 10 can be easily inserted in the buckle member 20, and the connection is also more firm, and the installation is more reliable. An outer end surface of the buckle member 20 is formed with a cross-shaped groove 24 which makes it easier for the user to adjust the direction conveniently. The cross-shaped groove 24 is provided with an indicating arrow 25, which makes it easier for the user to identify the installation direction to facilitate installation.
The detailed description of the use of this embodiment is as follows:
As shown in
The feature of the present invention is in that: by using the engaging hole to engage with the annular engaging groove, the connection of the boards is more firm because the present invention adopts a circumferential joint. Besides, the buckle member is provided with the cross-shaped groove, which makes it easier for the user to adjust the direction when in use. The structure design is reasonable and more convenient for use.
Although particular embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail for purposes of illustration, various modifications and enhancements may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Accordingly, the present invention is not to be limited except as by the appended claims.
