Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention

[0001] The present invention relates to a curtain controller assembly structure which does not need screws to lock and can be assembled automatically so as to increase production capacity and reduce labor costs.

2. Description of Related Art

[0002] Generally, a curtain controller (9) of a prior art as shown in FIG. 9 comprises a bead chain seat (91), a driving assembly (92), an assembling seat (93), a braking assembly (94), a first driving unit (95), a rectangular driving shaft (96), a seal cap (97), a second driving unit (98), and a cover (99). The bead chain seat (91) is provided with an accommodating slot (911), a plurality of first locking holes (912) on a side surface of an opening of the accommodating slot (911), and a bead chain disc (913) having one end for correspondingly connecting the opening of the accommodating slot (911). The driving assembly (92) is accommodated in the accommodating slot (911) for connecting the bead chain disc (913) of the bead chain seat (91) and provided with a driving unit (921). The assembling seat (93) is provided with a chamber (931), a plurality of second locking holes (932) at a bottom of the chamber (931) and corresponding to the plurality of first locking holes (912) of the bead chain seat (91), a plurality of third locking holes (933) disposed at an opening of the chamber (931), and a plurality of first screws (934) to respectively inserting into the plurality of first locking holes (912) and the plurality of second locking holes (932). The braking assembly (94) and the first driving unit (95) are sequentially accommodated in the chamber (931) of the assembling seat (93). The braking assembly (94) is provided with a braking cylinder (941) and a rectangular perforation (942) at a center of the braking cylinder (941). One end of the rectangular driving shaft (96) is inserted into the rectangular perforation (942), and the other end of the rectangular driving shaft (96) is inserted into the driving unit (921) of the driving assembly (92). The seal cap (97) is covered at the opening of the chamber (931) of the assembling seat (93) and provided with a plurality of fourth locking holes (971) on a periphery thereof and corresponding to the plurality of third locking holes (933). The second driving unit (98) is disposed on the seal cap (97) for connecting the first driving unit (95) and accommodated in the cover (99). The cover (99) is provided with a plurality of fifth locking holes (991) at a periphery thereof corresponding to the plurality of fourth locking holes (971) of the seal cap (97) and a plurality of second screws (992) for inserting into the plurality of fifth locking holes (991), the fourth locking holes (971) and the third locking holes (933) for fixation and connection of the cover (99), the seal cap (97), and the assembling seat (93).

[0003] It can be learned that the aforementioned curtain controller structure secures the driving assembly (92) in the accommodating slot (911) of the bead chain seat (91) by screwing the first screws (934) to the first locking holes (912) of the bead chain seat (91) and the second locking holes (932) of the assembling seat (93), and then secures the assembly of the braking assembly (94), the first driving unit (95) and the second driving unit (98) by screwing the second screws (992) to the cover (99), the seal cap (97) and the assembling seat (93). In such a case, it is necessary to manually align the locking holes (912) (932) (991) (971) of the bead chain seat (91), the assembling seat (93), the cover (99), and the seal cap (97), and then manually screw the screws (934) (992) to the locking holes (912) (932) (991) (971), so the conventional structure has many disadvantages, e.g. high cost of the screws (934) (992), high manpower consumption, and inability to automate production, resulting in slow production efficiency and unstable product quality.

[0004] Furthermore, the bead chain disc (913) of the conventional structure is driven by the driving assembly (92) through the rectangular driving shaft (96) to rotate the braking assembly (94), and the braking assembly (94) is further driven by the first driving unit (95) and the second driving unit (98) to rotate a roller rod and control the curtain to vertically or horizontally shrink or extend. Because the rectangular driving shaft (96) and the braking cylinder (941) are separate elements, an aperture tolerance of the rectangular perforation (942) on the braking cylinder (941) must be larger than a diameter of the rectangular driving shaft (96) to allow the assembly of the rectangular driving shaft (96) to the rectangular perforation (942). In such a case, there is a gap between the rectangular perforation (942) and the rectangular driving shaft (96).

[0005] When the braking cylinder (941) is driven by the rectangular driving shaft (96) to rotate, the rectangular driving shaft (96) first contacts the rectangular perforation (942) on the plastic braking cylinder (941) and then drives the braking cylinder (941) to rotate, so the diameter of the rectangular perforation (942) is easily enlarged due to an abrasion for a period of time by the rectangular driving shaft (96), and such phenomenon will be more obvious as the weight of the curtain increases. As a result, when the user pulls the bead chain string to actuate the bead chain disc (913), the braking assembly (94) driven by the driving assembly (92) and the rectangular driving shaft (96) may not rotate smoothly, and the rectangular driving shaft (96) and the braking cylinder (941) may even have idle rotation, resulting in failure to drive the curtain to shrink or extend.

[0028] In assembly of the present invention, an automation equipment is used to assemble and position the bead chain seat (1) on a fixture, and then the automation equipment is used to sequentially assemble the first driving unit (21), the elastic unit (22), and the second driving unit (23) of the first driving assembly (2) in the first chamber (11) of the bead chain seat (1). The first assembly end (211) of the first driving unit (21) is located in the accommodation space (15) by passing through the aperture (16) at the bottom of the first chamber (11). The housing aperture (221) of the elastic unit (22) is sleeved on the second assembly end (212) of the first driving unit (21). The assembly pillar (231) of the second driving unit (23) is inserted into the housing aperture (221) of the elastic unit (22) and further inserted into the receiving slot (215) at the second assembly end (212) of the first driving unit (21). The assembly lid (3) is placed in the first chamber (11) of the bead chain seat (1).

[0029] The plurality of first guiding inclines (132) of the plurality of first engaging parts (13) on the first chamber (11) of the bead chain seat (1) is used for mutually guiding the plurality of guide trenches (311) of the basal part (31) of the assembly lid (3), so that the basal part (31) is located between the plurality of first engaging parts (13) and the step edge (111) in the first chamber (11) of the bead chain seat (1) and positioned on the step edge (111), and the bottoms of the plurality of second engaging parts (312) of the basal part (31) contacts the plurality of first support surfaces (131) of the plurality of first engaging parts (13) for positioning.

[0030] Furthermore, the automation equipment is used to sleeve the two braking springs (41) of the braking assembly (4) on the joint section (32) of the assembly lid (3) and insert the driving shaft (43) into the through hole (321) of the joint section (32) of the assembly lid (3) and the shaft hole (233) of the second driving unit (23) for connection. In such a case, the two braking springs (41) and the joint section (32) of the assembly lid (3) are accommodated in the inner space (421) of the braking cylinder (42) integrated with the driving shaft (43). Then, the automation equipment is used to sleeve the channel (511) of the third driving unit (51) of the second driving assembly (5) on the braking assembly (4) and sleeve the fourth driving unit (52) on the teeth stick (513) of the third driving unit (51), so inner sides of the plurality of satellite gears (522) of the fourth driving unit (52) are engaged with the teeth stick (513) of the third driving unit (51). The automation equipment is also used to sleeve the second chamber (61) of the cover (6) on the fourth driving unit (52) and the third driving unit (51), so the third assembly end (523) of the fourth driving unit (52) is pierced out of the pore (62) and the ring gear (63) on the wall of the opening of the second chamber (61) of the cover (6) is engaged with outer sides of the plurality of satellite gears (522) of the fourth driving unit (52). The dovetail shaped engaging slots (641) of the plurality of second engaging portions (64) on the second chamber (61) of the cover (6) are respectively and correspondingly engaged with the dovetail shaped inserting slices (121) of the plurality of first engaging portions (12) of the bead chain seat (1), and then the plurality of pins (65) are respectively inserted into the plurality of first inserting holes (122) on the dovetail shaped inserting slices (121) and the plurality of second inserting holes (642) on the dovetail shaped engaging slots (641) so that the cover (6) and the bead chain seat (1) are firmly connected.

[0031] After a bead chain string (8) is wound around the bead chain disc (7), the bead chain disc (7) is disposed in the accommodation space (15) of the bead chain seat (1), so the convex portion (71) at the first end of the bead chain disc (7) correspondingly contacts the pit (151) of the accommodation space (15), and the accommodating slot (72) at the second end of the bead chain disc (7) receives the first assembly end (211) of the first driving unit (21) located in the accommodation space (15) the for connection. The plurality of second convex ribs (721) of the accommodating slot (72) is correspondingly engaged with the plurality of first convex ribs (214) at the first assembly end (211) for positioning. In such a case, the plurality of first engaging parts (13) of the bead chain seat (1) is engaged with the plurality of second engaging parts (312) of the assembly lid (3) to position the first driving assembly (2) on the first chamber (11) of the bead chain seat (1). Additionally, the plurality of second engaging portions (64) of the cover (6) is assembled to the plurality of first engaging portions (12) of the bead chain seat (1) by engagement for positioning the braking assembly (4) and the second driving assembly (5).

[0032] Accordingly, the curtain controller assembly structure of the present invention does not need screws to lock, so it saves the cost of using a screw for locking. Furthermore, the present invention can be assembled automatically due to the single assembly direction so as to achieve effects, e.g. automated production, increased production capacity, reduced labor costs, and stable product quality.

[0033] In use of the curtain controller assembly structure of the present invention, the bead chain string (8) is pulled so that the plurality of second convex ribs (721) of the accommodating slot (72) of the bead chain disc (7) is correspondingly engaged with the plurality of first convex ribs (214) at the first assembly end (211) of the first driving unit (21) to drive the first driving unit (21) to rotate. The first driving unit (21) drives the second driving unit (23) which is sleeved with the receiving slot (215) to rotate, and the second driving unit (23) further drives the driving shaft (43) which is sleeved with the shaft hole (233) to rotate. When the braking cylinder (42) is driven to rotate by the driving shaft (43), one side of the opening (422) of the braking cylinder (42) is pressed against the legs (411) of one terminal of the two braking springs (41) to release the joint section (32) of the assembly lid (3) from the two braking springs (41), so that the two braking springs (41) and the braking cylinder (42) rotate together. When the braking springs (41) is rotated, the legs (411) of the braking springs (41) is pushed against the limit segment (512) of the third driving unit (51) to drive the third driving unit (51) to rotate together. The rotation of the third driving unit (51) also drives the plurality of satellite gears (522) of the fourth driving unit (52) to move through the teeth stick (513) engaging with the fourth driving unit (52). The satellite gears (522) are also guided to rotate by the ring gear (63) so that the assembling seat (521) is rotated at a variable speed. In this way, the present invention achieves a labor saving effect by rolling a curtain on a roller rod connected with the third assembly end (523) on the assembling seat (521). When the satellite gears (522) of the fourth driving unit (52) is guided to rotate by the ring gear (63) of the cover (6), a counter torque is applied on the cover (6) by the satellite gears (522). Due to the design of the dovetail shaped engaging slots (641) of the engaging portions (64) of the cover (6) engaging with the dovetail shaped inserting slices (121) of the first engaging portions (12) of the bead chain seat (1), the cover (6) is not easily detached from the bead chain seat (1) when the cover (6) is subject to the counter torque.

[0034] If a child is accidentally wrapped around their necks by the bead chain string (8) when playing the bead chain string (8) and exerts a pulling force on the bead chain string (8), the bead chain disc (7) can be detached from the bead chain seat (1) by a slope guidance of the accommodating slot (72) of the bead chain disc (7) and the first assembly end (211) of the first driving unit (21) to push the first driving unit (21) for further compressing the adjacent elastic unit (22) and making the first driving unit (21) move towards the second driving unit (23). After the accommodating slot (72) at the second end of the bead chain disc (7) is completely disengaged from the first assembly end (211) of the first driving unit (21), the convex portion (71) at the first end of the bead chain disc (7) can be pulled out of the pit (151) of the accommodation space (15). In such a case, the bead chain disc (7) can be separated from the bead chain seat (1), the first driving unit (21), and the bead chain string (8) so as to unwind the bead chain string (8) on the children's necks and prevent children from choke.

[0035] The foregoing embodiments or drawings do not limit the embodiment of the curtain controller assembly structure of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 5 and FIG. 6, an explosion diagram and a cross-sectional view showing a second embodiment for a curtain controller assembly structure according to the present invention are revealed. Each of the plurality of first engaging parts (13) on the first chamber (11) of the bead chain seat (1) is formed as a locking hole, and each of the plurality of second engaging parts (312) of the assembly lid (3) is formed as a convex lump on the lateral of the basal part (31) of the assembly lid (3) Furthermore, each of the plurality of second engaging parts (312) is provided with a second guiding incline (313) and a second support surface (314) opposite to the second guiding incline (313). When the automation equipment is used to place the assembly lid (3) in the first chamber (11) of the bead chain seat (1), the second guiding inclines (313) guide the plurality of second engaging parts (312) insert into the first chamber (11) of the bead chain seat (1) and engage with the plurality of first engaging parts (13). In such a case, the second support surfaces (314) of the second engaging parts (312) engage with the first engaging parts (13) for positioning. The embodiment also achieves effects of automated assembly without screw locking and labor saving.

[0036] Referring to FIG. 7 and FIG. 8, an explosion diagram and a cross-sectional view showing a third embodiment for a curtain controller assembly structure according to the present invention are revealed. A side surface of the second stop flange (232) of the second driving unit (23) is provided with a ring convex (234) around the shaft hole (233) for contacting the assembly lid (3). The design of the ring convex (234) effectively reduces the contact area between the second stop flange (232) of the second driving unit (23) and the first side surface of the basal part (31) of the assembly lid (3), and further reduces the frictional resistance when the second driving unit (23) rotates. Therefore, the second driving unit (23) and the first driving unit (21) and the like connected thereto can be smoothly operated.

[0037] According to the above description, in comparison with the traditional technique, a curtain controller assembly structure according to the present invention has the advantages as following:

1. The present invention does not need screws to lock, so it saves the cost of using screws. Furthermore, the present invention can be assembled automatically due to the single assembly direction so as to achieve effects, e.g. automated production, increased production capacity, reduced labor costs, and stable product quality.

2. Due to the design of engagement of the dovetail shaped engaging slots of the engaging portions of the cover with the dovetail shaped inserting slices of the first engaging portions of the bead chain seat, the cover is not easily detached from the bead chain seat when the cover is subject to the counter torque.

3. Due to the design of engagement of the ring convex on the second stop flange of the second driving unit, the contact area between second stop flange of the second driving unit and the first side surface of the basal part of the assembly lid is reduced, and the frictional resistance during a rotation of the second driving unit is also reduced, so the second driving unit can be smoothly operated.

4. Due the engagement of the first engaging parts of the bead chain seat with the second engaging parts of the basal part, when the braking assembly is rotated, the assembly lid can be secured on the bead chain seat without rotation.

5. The metal driving shaft of the present invention is placed on a shaping mold of the braking cylinder for injecting the braking cylinder, so the driving shaft is integrally wrapped and injected with the braking cylinder. In such a way, the braking cylinder does not need a preset aperture larger than a diameter of the driving shaft, which prevents unsmooth rotation and idle rotation due to the gap between the braking cylinder and driving shaft being enlarged by an abrasion of the driving shaft for a period of time.
