請參閱第1圖,其繪示依照本新型一實施方式之框架結構100的***圖。框架結構100包含外框組110及內框組120,內框組120可滑動地連接外框組110。外框組110
包含第一外框件111及第二外框件112,第二外框件112可分離地連接第一外框件111。內框組120包含第一內框件121及第二內框件122,第一內框件121可滑動地連接第一外框件111,第二內框件122可滑動地連接第二外框件112,其中,內框組120可相對外框組110伸縮,藉以令內框組120可選擇地內縮或外露於外框組110,且第一外框件111及第一內框件121可分離地連接第二外框件112及第二內框件122。
Please refer to FIG. 1, which shows an exploded view of the
具體來說,本新型之框架結構100可設置於行李箱、冰箱、置物櫃或家具等收納件,並藉由上述結構配置,以令收納件可在一開啟狀態或一閉合狀態進行伸展及收合,以增加其容置空間的容量,並達到操作靈活且便利的功效。
Specifically, the
請參閱第2圖、第3圖、第4A圖及第4B圖,第2圖繪示依照第1圖實施方式之框架結構100之收合狀態的示意圖,第3圖繪示依照第1圖實施方式之框架結構100之伸展狀態的示意圖,第4A圖繪示依照第2圖實施方式之框架結構100的局部放大圖,第4B圖繪示依照第4A圖實施方式之框架結構100沿4B-4B剖線的剖面示意圖。
Please refer to FIG. 2, FIG. 3, FIG. 4A and FIG. 4B, FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram showing the collapsed state of the
由第4B圖可知,第一外框件111可包含第一滑槽113,且第一內框件121滑動於第一滑槽113內,第二外框件112可包含第二滑槽114,且第二內框件122滑動於第二滑槽114內。更仔細地說,第一內框件121係可滑動地嵌設於第一外框件111內,第二內框件122係可滑動地嵌設於
第二外框件112內。一般而言,習知現有的可擴容箱體僅設置單一的滑軌或滑槽,以致箱體必須在閉合狀態時才可伸縮變化體積。然而,由上述說明可知,本新型之框架結構100具有相互分離的雙滑槽結構(第一滑槽113及第二滑槽114),藉此,第一外框件111與第二外框件112的連接並不致影響第一內框件121及第二內框件122的滑動,進而令設置有框架結構100的箱體可選擇在開啟狀態或閉合狀態進行伸縮以改變其體積。
As can be seen from FIG. 4B, the first
舉例來說,如第2圖所示,框架結構100可在閉合狀態呈現一收合狀態,此時,內框組120係部分內縮於外框組110;另一方面,如第3圖所示,當欲增加框架結構100的長度時,可將內框組120沿第一滑槽113及第二滑槽114滑動,並令內框組120外露於外框組110,以使框架結構100呈現一伸展狀態。
For example, as shown in FIG. 2, the
再進一步地說,第一內框件121可包含第一凸條123,其滑動於第一滑槽113內,第二內框件122可包含第二凸條124,其滑動於第二滑槽114內。在第4B圖中,第一凸條123及第二凸條124的數量皆為二,在其他實施方式中,其數量可為一,本新型不以此為限。更仔細地說,由第4B圖可知,第一凸條123及第二凸條124與第一滑槽113及第二滑槽114接觸的一端,其截面皆呈一圓弧狀,藉此,有助於減少內框組120滑動時的摩擦力,並令內框組120可更順暢地滑動。此外,第一凸條123及第二凸條124的設置更可增加內框組120滑動的穩定性。
Still further, the first
第一外框件111可包含卡合槽115,第二內框件122包含卡合部125,卡合部125可分離地卡合於卡合槽115。更詳細地說,第二內框件122之卡合部125係凸出於第二外框件112,透過凸出的卡合部125卡合於卡合槽115內,以令第一外框件111及第一內框件121卡扣於第二外框件112及第二內框件122,並藉此可使框架結構100穩定地保持於閉合狀態。
The first
另外,外框組110更可包含擋部116,在第4B圖中,擋部116的數量為二,且二擋部116分別設置於第一外框件111及第二外框件112,以分別抵頂第一內框件121之一端及第二內框件122之一端。詳細來說,擋部116係突起於第一外框件111及第二外框件112的一內壁,並分別抵頂第一內框件121之一端及第二內框件122之一端,以令第一內框件121及第二內框件122可被更穩定地定位於第一滑槽113內及第二滑槽114內,並可避免內框組120脫落的風險,進而增加框架結構100整體結構的穩定度。
In addition, the
請參閱第5圖,並配合參照第4A圖及第4B圖。第5圖繪示依照第4B圖實施方式之框架結構100沿5-5剖線的剖面示意圖。框架結構100更可包含定位組130,其連接外框組110及內框組120,並用以限制外框組110與內框組120的相對位置,定位組130包含定位板件131及定位彈片133。定位板件131設置於外框組110與內框組120之間,並包含複數個孔洞132,定位彈片133連接內框組120,並包
含凸點134,凸點134可選擇地卡合於定位板件131之孔洞132中之一者。
Please refer to Figure 5, and refer to Figures 4A and 4B together. FIG. 5 is a schematic cross-sectional view of the
具體而言,在第4A、4B圖中,定位組130的數量為一,且定位板件131連接第二外框件112,定位彈片133連接第二內框件122,但本新型不以此為限,在其他實施方式中,定位組130的數量可為二。詳細來說,如第5圖所示,定位彈片133之凸點134卡合於孔洞132,以令內框組120無法相對外框組110滑動,並使框架結構100定位於所欲固定的長度。當欲調整框架結構100之長度時,使用者可施力於定位彈片133,令定位彈片133產生形變,以使凸點134脫離孔洞132,此時,內框組120可相對外框組110滑動並卡合至其他孔洞132內。藉此,透過簡單的操作,將框架結構100可選擇地固定於不同長度,以符合不同的使用需求,並藉以增加框架結構100的實用性。
Specifically, in FIGS. 4A and 4B, the number of the
請參閱第6A圖、第6B圖及第6C圖。第6A圖繪示依照本新型另一實施方式之行李箱200之收合狀態的示意圖,第6B圖繪示依照第6A圖實施方式之行李箱200之伸展狀態的示意圖,第6C圖繪示依照第6A圖實施方式之行李箱200之另一示意圖。
Please refer to Figure 6A, Figure 6B and Figure 6C. FIG. 6A is a schematic diagram showing the collapsed state of the
具體而言,行李箱200設置有第1圖實施方式之框架結構100,其元件標號及詳細結構請參照第1圖實施方式之敘述,在此不另贅述。行李箱200包含外箱體210及內箱體220,內箱體220可滑動地連接外箱體210。外箱體210包含第一外殼體211及第二外殼體212,第一外殼體211連
接第一外框件111,第二外殼體212連接第二外框件112,第二外框件112可分離地連接第一外框件111。內箱體220包含第一內殼體221及第二內殼體222,第一內殼體221連接第一內框件121,第一內框件121可滑動地連接第一外框件111,第二內殼體222可分離地連接第一內殼體221,並連接第二內框件122,且第二內框件122可滑動地連接第二外框件112,其中,內箱體220透過第一內框件121及第二內框件122滑動於第一外框件111及第二外框件112,藉以令內箱體220可選擇地內縮或外露於外箱體210。透過上述結構設置,可令行李箱200可於開啟狀態或閉合狀態,進行伸縮,以改變行李箱200的體積,藉此增加其使用的靈活度。
Specifically, the
仔細而言,在第6A圖中,行李箱200呈收合狀態,當欲增加行李箱200的體積時,行李箱200可藉由框架結構100之伸縮,使內箱體220外露於外箱體210,並伸展至伸展狀態,如第6B圖所示,以增加行李箱200的體積。也就是說,使用者可依使用需求,透過框架結構100之伸縮改變行李箱200的體積,以增加行李箱200的實用性。
In detail, in Figure 6A, the
在第6A圖中,框架結構100可包含樞轉件140,其連接外框組110的一邊,並用以令第一外框件111及第一內框件121相對第二外框件112及第二內框件122樞轉。換句話說,第一外殼體211、第一內殼體221、第二外殼體212及第二內殼體222可藉由樞轉件140樞轉,並令行李箱200呈閉合狀態(如第6A圖所示),或呈開啟狀態(如第6C圖所示)。此外,結合第1圖實施方式的說明可知,框架
結構100可令行李箱200可選擇地在開啟狀態或閉合狀態進行伸展或縮合,以增加行李箱200使用的靈活度。
In FIG. 6A, the
框架結構100更可包含鎖固件(圖未繪示),鎖固件連接外框組110的另一邊,並用以將第一外框件111鎖合於第二外框件112。藉此,令行李箱200固定於閉合狀態。
The
另外,值得一提的是,藉由框架結構100的設置,可取代習知現有之行李箱的拉鍊設置,改善拉鍊容易損壞的問題,藉以減少行李箱維修的費用,並增加行李箱使用的壽命。
In addition, it is worth mentioning that the arrangement of the
