Description
BACKGROUND
1. Technical Field

The present disclosure relates to a magnetic assembly structure and an assembling/disassembling method using the magnetic assembly structure, and in particular, to a magnetic assembly structure and an assembling/disassembling method using the magnetic assembly structure, which utilize an attracting or repulsive force of two magnetic components to make a main body and an inserting component automatically engaged to each other.


2. Description of Related Art

Generally, one manner to assemble two main bodies to form an object can be to fix the two main bodies by screwing or nailing. For example, an intermediate object can contact two rod parts, and a screw or nail penetrates the intermediate object to lock or fix the two rod parts. For example, one end of a rod part has a receiving room for receiving one end of another rod part, and a screw or nail penetrates the intermediate object to lock or fix the two rod parts. However, these manners may make the joint surface of the two main bodies protruded and non-flat, and thus a user using such object may be damaged when the user is hook by the protruded joint surface.


Additionally, another manner for fixing the two main body is to design a male thread and a female thread respectively on the two main bodies, and thus via the female and male threads, the two main bodies are assembled to form an object. For example, one end of an rod part has an opening, an inner wall of a receiving room of the opening has a female thread, another rod part has a protruding portion, and an outer wall of the protruding portion has a male thread, such that the two rod parts can be fixed to each other via the female and male threads. The manner can efficiently resist again a vertical disassembling operation, but cannot further resist against a rotational disassembling operation.


In the conventional manners, regardless of whether the nail, screw or thread is used to fix or lock the two main bodies, these conventional manners requires the user to provide her/his force, and cannot prevent the malicious person from disassembling the object without allowance or explanations. Even, the manner which utilizes the nail or screw to fix or lock the two main bodies makes the joint surface of the two main bodies non-flat, and it is easy to damage the user due to the non-flat surface. Therefore, the conventional manners have technical problems of consuming force for assembling, easily disassembling by the malicious person without allowance or explanations, and less safety.


Thus, how to utilize novel hardware structure design to implement the assembly object which can be assembled with a less force, increase safety and be hardly disassembled without allowance or explanations, is still an issue which the related industrial developer and researcher dedicate to overcome and solve.

FIG. 1 through FIG. 5 are used to illustrate a whole structure and an assembling/disassembling manner of a magnetic assembly structure provided by a first embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 1 through FIG. 3, the magnetic assembly structure comprises a main body 1 and an inserting component 2. The main body 1 extends along a first direction X, an inserting component 2 extends along a second direction Y being vertical to the first direction X, and a thickness W of an inserting component 2 is less than a length L of the main body 1. The inserting component 2 can be inserted into the main body 1, the inserting component 2 and the main body 1 can be engaged to each other via a magnetic force, and thus the magnetic assembly structure can prevent a malicious person from using a vertical and horizontal disassembling operating to disassemble magnetic assembly structure without allowance or explanations. The above magnetic assembly structure can applied in the furniture, daily necessity and electronic equipment, and the present disclosure is not limited thereto, thus having a wide application scope. For example, the main body 1 can be the table main body and the inserting component 2 can be the table leg.


The main body 1 has a first receiving slot 11, a second receiving slot 12, an engagement slot 13 and a main body surface 14. The first receiving slot 11 penetrates the main body surface 14 to form a first receiving slot opening O4 on the main body surface 14, and the first magnetic component 111 can be disposed in the first receiving slot 11 via the first receiving slot opening O4. The first magnetic component 111 can be a magnetic conduction component, such as an iron sheet or other magnetic conduction sheet. The second receiving slot 12 penetrates the main body surface 14 to form the main body opening O1 on the main body surface 14. The engagement slot 13 is disposed between the first receiving slot 11 and the second receiving slot 12, and is communicated with the second receiving slot 12 via the communicating opening O2. In addition, the engagement slot 13 further has contacting surface 131 being away from the main body surface 14 with a distance D.


The inserting component 2 has a receiving slot of the inserting component 21 and an inserting component surface 22, the receiving slot of the inserting component 21 penetrates the inserting component surface 22 to form the inserting component opening O3 on the inserting component surface 22, and the second magnetic component 211 is disposed in the receiving slot of the inserting component 21 via the inserting component opening O3. The second magnetic component 211 is a magnet component, a magnet pole of the second magnetic component 211, which faces the first magnetic component 111, is an N pole, and other magnet pole of the second magnetic component 211, which faces an inner wall of the receiving slot of the inserting component 21, is an S pole. In addition, in other embodiment, a magnet pole of the second magnetic component 211, which faces the first magnetic component 111, is an S pole, and other magnet pole of the second magnetic component 211, which faces an inner wall of the receiving slot of the inserting component 21, is an N pole.


As shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 4 (refer to FIG. 4 mainly, and refer to FIG. 2 secondarily), when assembling, the user can inserts the inserting component 2 into the second receiving slot 12 via the main body opening O1. To put it concretely, the section area of the main body opening O1 is larger than or equal to the section area of the inserting component 2, which faces the main body opening O1, such that the inserting component 2 can be inserted into the second receiving slot 12 via the main body opening O1.


After the user inserts the inserting component 2 into the second receiving slot 12 via the main body opening O1, via a magnetic attracting force induced by the first magnetic component 111 and the second magnetic component 211, the second magnetic component 211 sequentially passes the inserting component opening O3 and the communicating opening O2 to move into the engagement slot 13, wherein a portion of the second magnetic component 211 moves into the engagement slot 13, other portion of the second magnetic component 211 stays in the second receiving slot 12, and thus the second magnetic component 211 contacts the contacting surface 131, so as to prevent the inserting component 2 from sliding out from the second receiving slot 12. Specifically, the section area of the communicating opening O2 is larger than or equal to the section area of the inserting component opening O3, such that the second magnetic component 211 can move into the engagement slot 13. Since the second magnetic component 211 moves into the engagement slot 13 due to the magnetic force, the fixing and screwing manners are not required, and the magnetic assembly structure has an advantage of assembling with a less force.


As shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 5 (refer to FIG. 5 mainly, and refer to FIG. 2 secondarily), when disassembling, a magnetic repulsive force of a provided external magnetic component MAG and the second magnetic component 211 (i.e. the N pole of the external magnetic component MAG faces the N pole of the second magnetic component 211) is utilized to make the portion of the second magnetic component 211, which is located in the engagement slot 13, move into the second receiving slot 12. Next, the user can take the inserting component 2 out from the second receiving slot 12 via the main body opening O1, so as to complete the disassembly.



FIG. 6 through FIG. 8B are used to illustrate a whole structure and an assembling/disassembling manner of a magnetic assembly structure provided by a second embodiment of the present disclosure. The differences between the second embodiment and the first embodiment are the relative dimensions and extending directions of the main body 1 and the inserting component 2 and that the back end of the inserting component 2 has a bulk portion 23. As shown in FIG. 6, the main body 1 and the inserting component 2 extend along the second direction Y, and the back end of the inserting component 2 is the bulk portion 23, wherein the width W1 and the thickness T7 of the front end of the inserting component 2 are respectively less than the width W2 and the thickness T2 of the back end of the inserting component 2, and the width W2 and the thickness T2 of the back end of the inserting component 2 are respectively equal to the width W3 and thickness T1 of the main body 1.


In other words, the section area of the bulk portion 23 of the inserting component 2, which faces the second direction Y, is equal to the section area of the main body, which faces the second direction Y. Thus, as shown in FIG. 7, the assembled magnetic assembly structure is almost one part, the joint surface is almost flat, and merely a tiny thin line between the main body 1 and the inserting component 2 can be seen. In the second embodiment, the magnetic assembly structure can also be applied in the furniture, daily necessity and electronic equipment, and the present disclosure is not limited thereto, thus having a wide application scope. For example, the main body 1 can be the main table leg body, and the inserting component 2 can be the extension table leg part, so as to form a longer table leg. Since the assembled magnetic assembly structure has the almost flat joint surface, being not like the conventional assembly structure, the assembled magnetic assembly structure has no non-flat joint surfaces which may be hook by the user to cause the damage or danger, and the magnetic assembly structure in the second embodiment has the higher safety.


The assembling manner of the magnetic assembly structure in the second embodiment is the same as that of the magnetic assembly structure in the first embodiment. As shown in FIG. 6 and FIG. 7B (refer to FIG. 7B mainly, and refer to FIG. 6 secondarily), when assembling, the user can insert the inserting component 2 into the second receiving slot 12 via the main body opening O1. After the user inserts the inserting component 2 into the second receiving slot 12 via the main body opening O1, via a magnetic attracting force induced by the first magnetic component 111 and the second magnetic component 211, the second magnetic component 211 sequentially passes the inserting component opening O3 and the communicating opening O2 to move into the engagement slot 13.


The disassembling manner of the magnetic assembly structure in the second embodiment is the same as that of the magnetic assembly structure in the first embodiment. As shown in FIG. 8A and FIG. 6 (refer to FIG. 8A mainly, and refer to FIG. 6 secondarily), when disassembling, a magnetic repulsive force of a provided external magnetic component MAG and the second magnetic component 211 (i.e. the N pole of the external magnetic component MAG faces the N pole of the second magnetic component 211) is utilized to make the portion of the second magnetic component 211, which is located in the engagement slot 13, move into the second receiving slot 12. Next, the user can take the inserting component 2 out from the second receiving slot 12 via the main body opening O1, so as to complete the disassembly.


In addition, another disassembling manner of the magnetic assembly structure in the second embodiment is disclosed as follows. As shown in FIG. 6 and FIG. 8B (refer to FIG. 8B mainly, and refer to FIG. 6 secondarily), when disassembling, a magnetic attracting force of a provided external magnetic component MAG and the second magnetic component 211 (i.e. the N pole of the external magnetic component MAG faces the S pole of the second magnetic component 211) is utilized to make the portion of the second magnetic component 211, which is located in the engagement slot 13, move into the second receiving slot 12. Next, the user can take the inserting component 2 out from the second receiving slot 12 via the main body opening O1, so as to complete the disassembly.



FIG. 9A through FIG. 9C are used to illustrate a whole structure and an assembling/disassembling manner of a magnetic assembly structure provided by a third embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 9A through FIG. 9C, the differences between the third embodiment and the second embodiment are the types of the first magnetic components 111 in the two different embodiments. In the third embodiment, the first magnetic component 111 is a magnet component and the two opposite magnet poles of the first magnetic component 111 and second magnetic component 211 (i.e. the magnet poles of the first magnetic component 111 and second magnetic component 211, which face to each other) are different. For example, the N pole of the first magnetic component 111 faces the S pole of the second magnetic component 211. In addition, from the illustration of the third embodiment, the person with the ordinary skill in the art can replaces the first magnetic component 111 in the first embodiment by a magnet component.


The assembling manner of the magnetic assembly structure of the third embodiment is the same as that of the magnetic assembly structure in the second embodiment, and thus the redundant descriptions are omitted. The disassembling manner of the magnetic assembly structure of the third embodiment is illustrated as follows. As shown FIG. 9A and FIG. 9C (refer to FIG. 9C mainly, and refer to FIG. 9A secondarily), when disassembling, a magnetic attracting force of a provided external magnetic component MAG and the second magnetic component 211 (i.e. the S pole of the external magnetic component MAG faces the N pole of the second magnetic component 211) is utilized to make the portion of the second magnetic component 211, which is located in the engagement slot 13, move into the second receiving slot 12. Next, the user can take the inserting component 2 out from the second receiving slot 12 via the main body opening O1, so as to complete the disassembly.



FIG. 10A through FIG. 10C are used to illustrate a whole structure and an assembling/disassembling manner of a magnetic assembly structure provided by a fourth embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 10A through FIG. 10C, the differences between the fourth embodiment and the third embodiment are allocations of the engagement slots 13 in the two different embodiments. In the fourth embodiment, the second receiving slot 12 is disposed between the first receiving slot 11 and the engagement slot 13, and when assembling, the magnetic repulsive force of the second magnetic component 211 and the first magnetic component 111 makes the second magnetic component 211 move into the engagement slot 13 (as shown in FIG. 10B). The first magnetic component 111 and the second magnetic component 211 are two magnet components, and two opposite magnet poles of the first magnetic component 111 and the second magnetic component 211 are identical, for example, S poles. Additionally, when disassembling, a magnetic repulsive force of a provided external magnetic component MAG and the second magnetic component 211 is utilized to make the portion of the second magnetic component 211, which is located in the engagement slot 13, move into the second receiving slot 12 (see FIG. 10C). Next, the user can take the inserting component 2 out from the second receiving slot 12 via the main body opening O1, so as to complete the disassembly.



FIG. 11A through FIG. 11C are used to illustrate a whole structure and an assembling/disassembling manner of a magnetic assembly structure provided by a fifth embodiment of the present disclosure. The differences between the magnetic assembly structure in the fifth embodiment and the magnetic assembly structure in the first through second embodiments are that the magnetic assembly structure comprises a plurality of inserting components, and the main body does not comprises the magnetic component. Referring to FIG. 11A, the magnetic assembly structure comprises a main body 3, a first inserting component 4 and a second inserting component 5. The main body 3 extends along a first direction X, the first inserting component 4 and the second inserting component 5 extend along the second direction Y being vertical to the first direction X. The two back ends of the first inserting component 4 and the second inserting component 5 are respectively the first bulk portion 43 and the second bulk portion 53. The widths W5, W7 and the thicknesses T8, T9 of the two front ends of the first inserting component 4 and the second inserting component 5 are respectively less than the widths W6, W8 and the thicknesses T3, T4 of the two back ends of the first inserting component 4 and the second inserting component 5, and the widths W6, W8 and the thicknesses T3, T4 of the two back ends of the first inserting component 4 and the second inserting component 5 are equal to the length L0 and the thickness T0 of the main body 3.


In other words, section areas of the first bulk portion 43 and the second bulk portion 53 of the first inserting component 4 and the second inserting component 5, which face the second direction Y, are equal to the section area of the main body, which faces the second direction Y. Thus, the assembled magnetic assembly structure is almost one part, the joint surface is almost flat, and merely tiny thin line between the main body 3, the first inserting component 4 and the second inserting component 5 can be seen. In the fifth embodiment, the magnetic assembly structure can also be applied in the furniture, daily necessity and electronic equipment, and the present disclosure is not limited thereto, thus having a wide application scope. For example, the main body 3 can be a table intermediate part, the first inserting component 4 can be the main table leg body, and the second inserting component 5 can be the extension table leg part, so as to form a longer table leg. Since the assembled magnetic assembly structure has the almost flat joint surface, being not like the conventional assembly structure, the assembled magnetic assembly structure has no non-flat joint surfaces which may be hook by the user to cause the damage or danger, and the magnetic assembly structure in the fifth embodiment has the higher safety.


The main body 3 has a first receiving slot 31, a second receiving slot 32, a first engagement slot 33, a second engagement slot 34, a first main body surface 35 and a second main body surface 36, wherein the first main body surface 35 is disposed corresponding to the second main body surface 36.

As shown FIG. 11A and FIG. 11B (refer to FIG. 11B mainly, and refer to FIG. 11A secondarily), when assembling, the first inserting component 4 and the second inserting component 5 are respectively into the first receiving slot 31 and the second receiving slot 32 via the first main body opening O1′ and the second main body opening O2′. Specifically, the section area of the first main body opening O1′ can be larger than or equal to the section area of first inserting component 4, which faces the first main body opening O1′, such that the first inserting component 4 can be inserted into the first receiving slot 31 via the first main body opening O1′; the section area of the second main body opening O2′ can be larger than or equal to the section area of second inserting component 5, which faces the second main body opening O2′, such that the second inserting component 5 can be inserted into the second receiving slot 32 via the second main body opening O2′.


After the user inserts the first inserting component 4 and the second inserting component 5 into the first receiving slot 31 and the second receiving slot 32, via a magnetic attracting force induced by the first magnetic component 411 and the second magnetic component 511, the first magnetic component 411 sequentially passes the first inserting component opening O5′ and the first communicating opening O3′ to move into the first engagement slot 33, and via a magnetic attracting force induced by the first magnetic component 411 and the second magnetic component 511, the second magnetic component 511 sequentially passes the second inserting component opening O6′ and the second communicating opening O4′ to move into the second engagement slot 34, wherein portions of the first magnetic component 411 and the second magnetic component 511 respectively move into the first engagement slot 33 and the second engagement slot 34, and other portions of the first magnetic component 411 and the second magnetic component 511 respectively stay in the first receiving slot 31 and the second receiving slot 32.

Specifically, the section area of the first communicating opening O3′ can be larger than or equal to the section area of the first inserting component opening O5′, such that the first magnetic component 411 can move into the first engagement slot 31; and the section are of the second communicating opening O4′ can be larger than or equal to the section area of the second inserting component opening O6′, such that the second magnetic component 511 can move into the second engagement slot 32. Since the first magnetic component 411 and the second magnetic component 511 move into the first engagement slot 33 and the second engagement slot 34 due to the magnetic force, the fixing and screwing manners are not required, and the magnetic assembly structure has an advantage of assembling with a less force.


As shown FIG. 11A and FIG. 11C (refer to FIG. 11C mainly, and refer to FIG. 11A secondarily), when disassembling, a magnetic attracting force of a provided first external magnetic component MAG1 and the first magnetic component 411 (i.e. the N pole of the first external magnetic component MAG1 faces the S pole of the first magnetic component 411) is utilized to make the portion of the first magnetic component 411, which is located in the first engagement slot 33, move to the first receiving slot 31, and a magnetic attracting force of a provided second external magnetic component MAG2 and the second magnetic component 511 (i.e. the S pole of the second external magnetic component MAG2 faces the N pole of the second magnetic component 511) is utilized to make the portion of the second magnetic component 511, which is located in the second engagement slot 34, move to the second receiving slot 32. Next, the first inserting component 4 and the second inserting component 5 are taken out from the first receiving slot 31 and the second receiving slot 32 via the first main body opening O1′ and the second main body opening O2′, so as to complete the disassembly.


Additionally, allocations of the first receiving slot 31, the second receiving slot 32, the first engagement slot 33 and the second engagement slot 34 in the fifth embodiment can be changed to be that the first receiving slot 31 and the second receiving slot 32 are disposed between the first engagement slot 33 and the second engagement slot 34, and meanwhile, the first magnetic component 411 and the second magnetic component 511 are two magnet components and two opposite magnet poles of the first magnetic component 411 and the second magnetic component 511 are identical, for example, N poles. Thus, when assembling, a magnetic repulsive force of the first magnetic component 411 and the second magnetic component 511 can make the first magnetic component 411 and the second magnetic component 511 respectively move into the first engagement slot 33 and the second engagement slot 34. When disassembling, magnetic repulsive forces provided by the first external magnetic component MAG1 and the second external magnetic component MAG2 are utilized to make the portions of the first magnetic component 411 and the second magnetic component 511, which are respectively located in the first engagement slot 33 and the second engagement slot 34, move to the first engagement slot 31 and the second receiving slot 32.


According to the descriptions of the embodiments, compared to the prior art, the magnetic assembly structure of the present disclosure utilizes the magnetic force of the magnetic components to assemble the main body and the inserting component, and thus the assembling force is decreased to have the advantage of assembling with a less force. Further, the malicious person cannot see the assembling manner from the appearance of the magnetic assembly structure, and the magnetic assembly structure can simultaneously resist against the vertical and rotational disassembling manners. Therefore, without allowance or explanations, the malicious person cannot disassemble the magnetic assembly structure. Moreover, the joint surface of the magnetic assembly structure is flat, thus it can prevent the user from being hook by the joint surface to avoid damage and danger, and the safety is increased.


To sum up, the magnetic assembly structures in the embodiments are illustrated as the above, and can achieve the predicated technical results. The present disclosure is not anticipated by the prior art known by the inventors, and the inventors believe the present disclosure meets the specifications associated with the provisions of the patent law. Thus, the inventors submit the application of the present disclosure to respectfully request a substantial examination for obtaining the patent right.
