【Detailed ways】

The positioning device of the replacement module of the present invention will be described in detail below through preferred embodiments and accompanying drawings.

Referring to Fig. 1, Fig. 2 and Fig. 3, the preferred embodiment of the positioning device of the present utility model is mainly used for positioning a replacement module 2 installed in a casing 1, and the casing 1 has a side opposite to the other. A plurality of slots 11 extending from one side, and a plurality of connectors 12 disposed inside and opposite to each slot 11 . Relative to each slot 11 and the replacement module 2 , the positioning device includes two guide grooves 3 and a rotating member 4 .

The aforementioned guide groove 3 is formed on two groove walls opposite to the slot 11 of the housing 1, and has a guide section 31 extending along the installation direction of the replacement module 2, adjacent to the guide section 31 and facing each other. A first abutting surface 32 and a second abutting surface 33, an idle section 34 formed between the first and second abutting surfaces 32, 33, and a moving section 34 from the first abutting surface 32 toward the second abutting surface A blocking portion 35 protrudes in the direction of the two abutting surfaces 33 .

The rotary member 4 has a handle 41 for gripping, two wing plates 42 formed on both sides of the handle 41, and two positioners formed on an outer side of the aforementioned wing plate 42 and protruding along an axial direction. Column 43. The wing plate 42 is rotatably pivotally connected to the replacement module 2 with the axis as the axis X, so that the handle 41 is rotatably placed on one side of the replacement module 2 . The aforementioned positioning column 43 maintains a fixed distance from the axis X, and can rotate around the axis X following a circular trajectory, and the circular trajectory passes through the first and second abutting surfaces 32, 33 of the guide groove 3 And this empty section 34.

The steps to install the replacement module 2 are as follows:

1. Referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3, insert part of the replacement module 2 into the slot 11 of the housing 1, and then turn the handle 41 of the rotating part 4 counterclockwise to the bottom The position of the point makes the positioning posts 43 on both sides of the rotary member 4 relative to the guide section 31 of the aforementioned guide groove 3 .

2. Push the replacement module 2 along the installation direction, so that the positioning column 43 follows the guide section 31 of the guide groove 3 and moves along the insertion direction until it touches the second abutment surface 33, and informs the user to stop pushing the drawer. Change the action of module 2. At this time, although the replacement module 2 and the connector 12 in the casing 1 have been connected to each other, they have not been fully engaged.

3. Referring to Fig. 4 and Fig. 5, turn the handle 41 of the rotating part 4 in a clockwise direction, so that the aforementioned positioning column 43 moves around the axis X in the aforementioned guide groove 3 following a circular trajectory until it touches After the aforementioned stopping portion 35 , it is blocked by the aforementioned stopping portion 35 and is displaced downward for a small distance, and then continues to follow the aforementioned circular trajectory until it touches the first abutting surface 32 .

4. Referring to Fig. 5 and Fig. 6, continue to rotate the handle 41 of the rotary member 4 clockwise to the position of the top dead center. At this time, since the distance between the aforementioned positioning post 43 and the axis X is fixed Therefore, when the aforementioned positioning column 43 is blocked by the first abutting surface 32 of the aforementioned guide groove 3 and cannot be displaced and rotated, a moment will be generated to displace the axis X along the installation direction, thereby driving the replacement mold The group 2 is further displaced to a positioning position where it is fully engaged with the connector 12 in the installation direction.

Referring to Fig. 7, it is worth mentioning that the stroke and the distance that the positioning column 43 is displaced from the stopper 35 to the first abutting surface 32 is called the idle stroke S. In this idle stroke S, although the rotation The handle 41 of the moving part 4 still rotates continuously, but the replacement module 2 will not be displaced along the installation direction, thereby, the size of the idle stroke S can be adjusted according to the use requirements, and the rotating part can be controlled. 4. Automatically advance and pull the displacement distance of the replacement module 2 .

The steps to extract the replacement module 2 are as follows:

1. Referring to Fig. 6 and Fig. 8, turn the handle 41 of the rotating part 4 in the counterclockwise direction, so that the aforementioned positioning column 43 moves around the axis X in the aforementioned guide groove 3 following a circular trajectory until it touches The aforementioned second abutment surface 33, at this time, only need to continue to rotate the handle 41 of the rotary member 4 in the counterclockwise direction, and the aforementioned positioning post 43 is blocked by the aforementioned second abutment surface 33 of the guide groove 3 and When the displacement and rotation are no longer possible, a moment is generated to displace the axis X against the installation direction, thereby driving the replacement module 2 to displace against the installation direction to a release position away from the connector 12 .

2. Referring to Fig. 8 and Fig. 9, when the handle 41 of the rotating part 4 is rotated to the position of the bottom dead center, the positioning columns 43 on both sides of the rotating part 4 will move relative to the guide section of the aforementioned guide groove 3 31, whereby the replacement module 2 can be withdrawn from the casing 1 only by pulling the handle 41 of the rotating member 4 .

Referring to Fig. 10, it is a second preferred embodiment of the positioning device of the replacement module of the present invention, which is roughly the same as the first preferred embodiment, except that:

The first abutting surface 32 and the second abutting surface 33 of the guide groove 3 extend along an arc-shaped trajectory. In this way, the first and second abutting surfaces 32, 33 can also force the axis X of the rotating member 4 to move forward and backward relative to the installation direction of the replacement module 2, so as to connect with the housing 1 Or the purpose of releasing the connection relationship with the housing 1 .

According to the above, it can be seen that the positioning device of the replacement module of the present invention has the following advantages and effects:

1. The utility model is based on the above-mentioned special limit relationship, without the need for tools, it can use simple and smooth movements to achieve the purpose of installing or dismounting the replacement module 2, which not only simplifies the assembly, And it can improve the convenience and simplicity of disassembly and assembly.

2. The utility model can automatically drive the replacement module 2 to engage with or disengage from the connector 12 of the housing 1 by means of the force of rotating the rotating part 4, and can be used according to the use of different housings 1. According to the requirements, the distance that the replacement module 2 is pushed by the rotating member 4 is designed so that the utility model can be applied to different brands of casings 1 and has practicality in use.
