Patent Application
20240397930
The present invention relates to the technical field of insect repelling, in particular to an insect and fly repelling device with a small storage volume.
In summer, there are many mosquitoes and flies on the dining table, fruit bowls or stalls. In order to avoid the pollution of fruits or food by mosquitoes and flies, many users drive away mosquitoes and flies by using fly-driving fans.
However, in the prior art, most mosquito-repelling fans are of integrated structure, and their volume is relatively large, so they often need to occupy a relatively large storage space when idle. For example, U.S. Patent NO. 20200093119 discloses a flying insect deterrent system and device, including a rotating element, a vertical column, a rope, a rope element and a motor. The insect deterrent device comprises a vertical column, a rotating element, a motor, a rope and rope elements, wherein the rotating device is located at the top of the vertical column and is driven by the motor, and the motor rotates the rope connected to the rotating device to prevent flying insects from flying or landing in the area.
There is also a split-type insect repelling fan in the market. Its structure includes a base body, a first sleeve and a second sleeve fixedly connected to the base body. After the three are fixedly connected, they form a whole, which generally does not need to be split twice, which leads to the large overall size of the product and some inconvenience in storage. In addition, the base body, the first sleeve and the second sleeve are all narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, and the battery box is fixed at the lower part of the base body and the motor is fixed at the upper part of the second sleeve. Because there is no guide structure between the base body, the first sleeve and the second sleeve, during the assembly process, because of the dislocation between the base body and the first sleeve or between the first sleeve and the second sleeve, the wires connecting the battery box and the motor are easy to fall off, which leads to the scrapping of the products.
Based on the above problems, it is necessary to put forward a brand-new insect and fly repelling device, which has less storage volume, reduces the space occupied when idle, and can guide and maintain the storage and use state of the device at the same time, avoiding the loss of wires between the power supply and the driving device due to the dislocation of the device, and prolonging the service life of the product.
The present invention provides a retractable insect and fly repelling device, which comprises an insect and fly repelling module, a sleeve assembly for receiving the insect and fly repelling module, and a base body for accommodating and supporting the sleeve assembly, wherein the sleeve assembly comprises at least one sleeve, and also comprises a track and slider structure for guiding the sleeve assembly into an accommodating state or a use state; the track and slider structure comprises a track device and a slider device, and the track device is fixed to the sleeve or the base body and configured to extend upward from the bottom of the sleeve or the base body.
The retractable insect and fly repelling device provided by the present invention is further provided with a locking structure on the sleeve assembly and the base body, and the use state of the device is maintained through the locking structure.

As shown in
As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, in order to avoid the disadvantage that the existing insect and fly repelling device is prone to dislocation when it is extended and retracted, the insect and fly repelling device provided by the present invention further includes a track and slider structure for guiding the sleeve assembly 200 into an accommodating state or a use state. As shown in
Specifically, as shown in
In this embodiment, both the sleeve 210 and the base body 300 are provided with a track device 400, which is integrally formed with the sleeve 210 and the base body 300 and includes two tracks 410. The two tracks 410 are arranged in a relatively parallel manner and extend upward from the bottom of the sleeve 210 to form a chute 411, and extend upward from the bottom of the base body 300 to form a chute 412, wherein two end faces of the chute 411 and the two end faces of the chute 412 coincide with each other.
The slider 510 is formed at the bottom of the sleeve 210 and configured to slide in the chute 411 or the chute 412 to guide the expansion and contraction of the sleeve 210 and make the sleeve 210 have a large expansion and contraction range. In some embodiments, the slider 510 can be arranged in the middle of the sleeve 210 or at other heights according to actual use requirements. In this embodiment, the width of the slider 510 is the same as that of the chute 411, which makes the retraction and accommodating process of the sleeve 210 more stable and not easy to shake. In some embodiments, the width of the slider 510 can be slightly smaller than that of the chute 411 or the chute 412, for example, there is a gap of 0.05 mm to 1 mm between one end face of the slider 510 and the corresponding track 410, so as to reduce the sliding friction of the slider 510 in the chute 411 or the chute 412, so that the stretching and retracting and accommodating of the sleeve body 210 is more labor-saving and the loss caused by friction is reduced.
In some embodiments, in order to reduce the manufacturing cost or make the device lighter, the number of the tracks 410 can also be configured as one. At this time, the slider 510 will no longer guide the retraction and accommodating of the sleeve 210 through the chute, but will be coupled with the track 410, and the track 410 will be used to guide the retraction and accommodating of the sleeve 210. In other embodiments, in order to further increase the stability of the sleeve 210 during expansion and storage, the number of tracks 410 can be three or more, and at the same time, a plurality of chutes 411 or chutes 412 are correspondingly formed, and a plurality of sliders 510 are formed, so as to further avoid the dislocation of the sleeve 210 during expansion and storage.
As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, in order to maintain the retraction and accommodating state of the sleeve 210, as shown in
When the sleeve 210 is guided into the use state by the track and slider structure, as shown in
As shown in
In some embodiments, the number of sleeves 210 can be more configured to meet the use needs of different users, for example, four or five sleeves are provided to make the insect and fly repelling device have a higher expelling height.
As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the locking part 240 is arranged at the top of the chute 411, the clamping part 270 is arranged at the bottom of the slider 510, and the stopping part 330 is arranged at the top of the chute 412, so that the retractable storage process of the sleeve 2 is more stable and the storage effect is better. In other embodiments, the locking structure can be arranged at other positions and heights to meet the actual use needs of users.
In this embodiment, the locking structure is integrally formed with the sleeve 210 or the base body 300, and both the sleeve 210 and the base body 300 are made of plastic, so that the locking structure has certain elasticity, and the user can overcome the elastic stress of the plastic to complete the locking fit of the locking structure during the retractable operation of the device, thus greatly prolonging the service life of the insect and fly repelling device. In some embodiments, the locking structure can also be made of elastic metal materials to further increase the service life of the device.
As shown in
As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, in order to enable the insect and fly repelling device in the stored state to carry out insect and fly repelling work, as shown in
In the present invention, the insect and fly repelling module 100 includes a fan assembly and a power supply (not shown in the figure). The fan assembly is fixedly connected with the casing 210, including blades 111 and a motor (not shown in the figure). The power supply is fixedly connected with the base body 300 and electrically connected with the motor. The motor is arranged on the motor seat 213, and the blades 111 are rotated by starting the motor, thereby expelling mosquitoes in a certain space.
As shown in
According to the retractable insect and fly repelling device provided by the present invention, a guide structure of a track and slider structure is arranged between the base body 300 and the sleeves 210 at all levels, and at the same time, a locking structure is arranged, so that the sliding between the base body 300 and the sleeves 210 at all levels is very stable; in the assembly process of parts, because the relative positions are stable, the connecting wires between the power supply and the motor are not likely to fall off, and the rejection rate of products is reduced; in addition, users can also achieve different insect and fly repellent heights by accommodating the one-level or multi-level sleeve 210, which has wider applicability.
