This application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 201610360018.1 filed on May 27, 2016.
The subject matter herein generally relates to pressing assemblies, and particularly to a pressing assembly capable of adjusting a value of a pressing force applied to target object.
Pressing assemblies are widely used. The precision of a pressing value applied manually to a target object may be difficult to achieve.
Implementations of the present technology will now be described, by way of example only, with reference to the attached figures.
It will be appreciated that for simplicity and clarity of illustration, where appropriate, reference numerals have been repeated among the different figures to indicate corresponding or analogous elements. In addition, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the embodiments described herein. However, it will be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art that the embodiments described herein can be practiced without these specific details. In other instances, methods, procedures, and components have not been described in detail so as not to obscure the related relevant feature being described. The drawings are not necessarily to scale and the proportions of certain parts may be exaggerated to better illustrate details and features. The description is not to be considered as limiting the scope of the embodiments described herein.
The term “comprising” means “including, but not necessarily limited to”, it specifically indicates open-ended inclusion or membership in a so-described combination, group, series, and the like.
Referring to
The second end 22 resists one end of the first elastic element 40. In the embodiment, the first elastic element 40 is a spring. The receiving portion 30 defines a receiving space 31, the first elastic element 40 is received in the receiving space 31. A part of the pressing rod 50 is movably received in the receiving space 31 and resists another end of the first elastic element 40. The first elastic element 40 is connected between the first connecting portion 20 and the pressing rod 50. In the exemplary embodiment, a diameter of the first elastic element 40 is less than the diameter of the pressing rod 50 and the diameter of the first connecting portion 20. A starting state of the first elastic element 40 is compressed. When using the pressing assembly 1 to press a target object 200, a value of the pressing force can be adjusted by adjusting a compression (that is to say, the length) of the first elastic element 40.
In the exemplary embodiment, the receiving portion 30 further includes an end portion 32 which is away from the first connecting portion 20. An inner diameter of the end portion 32 is less than the inner diameter of other parts of the receiving portion 30. The pressing rod 50 further includes a latching portion 51, the latching portion 51 is blocked by the end portion 32 to prevent the pressing rod 50 from coming out from the receiving portion 30.
The pressing portion 60 is connected to an end of the pressing rod 50 which is away from the first elastic element 40. In the exemplary embodiment, the pressing assembly 1 further includes a second connecting portion 70. The pressing portion 60 is connected to the pressing rod 50 via the second connecting portion 70.
Referring to
In the exemplary embodiment, the pressing assembly 1 further includes a second fixing member 23. Both of the receiving portion 30 and the second end 22 of the first connecting portion 20 define a through hole (not shown), the second fixing member 23 passes through the through hole of the second end 22 and the receiving portion 30 to fix the second end 22 of the first connecting portion 20 to the receiving portion 30. In the exemplary embodiment, the second fixing member 23 is a dowel.
In the exemplary embodiment, the pressing assembly 1 further includes a shell 80 and a third fixing member 90. The first connecting portion 20 further includes a resisting portion 24. The shell 80 is a hollow cylinder open at both ends. One end of the shell 80 is around the first end 21 of the first connecting portion 20 and resists the resisting portion 24. Another end of the shell 80 is fixed to the third fixing member 90. The receiving portion 30 is received in the shell 80, the pressing rod 50 passes through the third fixing member 90 to connect to the pressing portion 60.
In the exemplary embodiment, the pressing assembly 1 further includes a second elastic element 100 coiled around the receiving portion 30. One end of the second elastic element 100 resists the resisting portion 24, another end of the second elastic element 100 resists the third fixing member 90. In the exemplary embodiment, the second elastic element 100 is a spring for resetting.
Referring to
When the pressing assembly 1 is pressing the target object 200, the second elastic element 100 is compressed by the resisting portion 24 of the first connecting portion 20. When the pressing assembly 1 is released by the user, an elastic restoring force of the second elastic element 100 drives the first connecting portion 20 to move back to an initial position.
In the exemplary embodiment, a size of the pressing assembly 1 can be adjusted as needed. For example, the pressing assembly 1 can be used as a pressing device independently. The pressing assembly 1 further can be used in manufacturing by a factory. The pressing assembly 1 also can be used in push switches of electronic devices.
It is believed that the present embodiments and their advantages will be understood from the foregoing description, and it will be apparent that various changes may be made thereto without departing from the spirit and scope of the disclosure or sacrificing all of its material advantages, the examples hereinbefore described merely being exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure.
