Description

Three-axis limit tool placement device

The present invention relates to a tool placement device; in particular, it refers to an innovative three-axis limit type tool placement device structural type disclosure.

The tool placement device referred to in the present invention is commonly used to place and position a set of tools with various sizes and specifications, such as a socket set, a screwdriver bit set, and the like. And this kind of tool placement device usually divides the tool into several units according to the specification or type, and then arranges the tools of different units on different racks, and the racks are assembled together on the same rack. In terms of the base structure, this type of design is mainly to consider that in the actual use process, if the user only needs to use the tools of one of the units, it is better to only take the shelf plate instead of moving the entire base. The seat is more labor-saving and convenient to use.

However, in the conventional structure mentioned in the previous paragraph, due to the lack of proper positioning structure between the shelf plates and the base structure, the shelf plates are prone to loosening, displacement or even falling off. Another structural type of conventional tool placement device is disclosed, as disclosed in the content of the US patent case "Slide rail and tray for socket wrench" in US9364949B2 (Note: the figure numbers below this paragraph refer to those indicated in the specification of US9364949B2 ), in this previous case, the detachable state of each slide rail 14 relative to the tray 12 is in the mechanism design of its button 56 part, when the button 56 is pressed When the user presses down, the locking edge 52 of its flexible arm will lower below the bottom surface of the slide rail, allowing the slide rail 14 to slide over the top of the flexible arm in a released state, and the button 56 communicates with the tray through its circumference. A slot 70 formed between the bottoms of 12 provides a flexible function of the button 56 that can be pressed and swung.

However, the conventional structure type mentioned in the previous paragraph still has some problems in practical use. For example, this kind of tool placement device product is usually required to be dropped before leaving the factory due to the consideration of safety. Check the firmness of the combination between the slide rail 14 and the tray 12. At this time, because the button 56 has the characteristics of flexibly swinging, at the moment when the whole product of the tool placement device falls from a high place and hits the ground, The button 56 is likely to be shaken and displaced by the impact force, thereby causing the slide rail 14 to be released and slipped by itself. That is to say, the slide rail 14 and the tray of the conventional tool placement device Between 12 and 12, there are still problems such as insufficient stability of combined positioning, easy to loose and separate from each other during use, and safety concerns.

The main purpose of the present invention is to provide a three-axis limiting tool placement device, and the technical problem to be solved is to think about how to develop a more ideal and practical new tool placement device. Innovative breakthrough.

Based on the aforementioned purpose, the technical feature of the present invention to solve the problem is that the tool placement device includes: a basic face, which defines the X-axis and the Y-axis along the horizontal extension directions of the different faces, and the basic face defines At least one placement area is formed; at least one tool placement track is detachably assembled in each placement area, and the at least one tool placement track is elongated along the X-axis, thereby forming the first end, The second end and the long plate section between the first end and the second end, the long plate section is slidably provided with a plurality of tools Sleeve seat, each tool sleeve is protruded with a cylinder, and the Z-axis is defined according to the protruding direction of the cylinder; a three-axis limit structure is formed in each placement area, the three-axis The limiting structure includes an end-direction limiting portion and an elastic hook, and the end-direction limiting portion and the elastic hook are arranged at two ends of the placing area that are away from the X-axis, and wherein: The end limit portion is formed at one end of the X-axis of the placement area and corresponding to the first end of the corresponding tool placement track. The end limit portion includes an abutting wall at one end, two lateral The limit wall and at least one pressing edge, the end abutting wall abuts against the first end face of the corresponding tool placement track, so as to form the X-axis rigid abutting state limit function, and the two lateral limit walls abut The corresponding tool is placed on both sides of the first end of the track, so as to form the Y-axis rigid abutting state limit function, and the pressing edge is used to press against the top surface of the first end of the corresponding tool-placed track to form a Z Axial rigid abutting state limiting effect; the elastic hook is formed at the other end of the X-axis of the placement area and corresponds to the second end of the tool placement track, and the elastic hook includes a direction from the placement area toward the An elastic arm protruding in the Z-axis, and a hook-shaped portion formed on the protruding end of the elastic arm, the hook-shaped portion is formed with a dial control portion and a pressing surface, and the pressing surface is pressed against the second end of the tool placement track, As a result, the Z-axis limit function is formed, and the elastic arm and the second end of the tool placement track are in a corresponding relationship along the X-axis.

The main effect and advantage of the present invention is that the tool placement track and the basic face placement area can be firmly combined and positioned in the three axes of X, Y, and Z, thereby effectively preventing the tool placement track from being loose and displaced. The problem is indeed practical and progressive.

Another object of the present invention is that the pressing edge of the end-direction limiting portion is formed with another technical feature of an oblique guide surface, so that the tool placement track can be complied with through the setting of the oblique guide surface. When the first end is inserted at an oblique angle, it can improve the work efficiency. It has the advantages of smooth placement of track inserts and practical progress.

Another object of the present invention is to use the tool to place the long plate segment of the track and form a nested portion that is recessed or penetrated along the Z-axis, and the three-axis limit structure is formed in cooperation with Another technical feature is that the convex column is in the form of protruding from the basic surface along the Z axis, and the convex column is just opposite to the nesting part to achieve mutual nesting and matching relationship with each other, so that the long plate segment is positioned relative to each other. The placement area achieves a limit state in at least one of the X and Y axes, which further increases the stability of the tool placement track combination and effectively prevents it from falling and disintegrating. The advantages and practical progress.
