Abstract
An operating mechanism and a hose drawing device, comprising a hose body, a hose guide sleeve, a mounting box, a swing arm, a button switch and a top pin. The hose guide sleeve is fitted in the hose body in the way of clearance fit, the mounting box is mounted on the outside of the hose body, the swing arm is pivotally mounted in the mounting box; an upper guide sleeve and a lower guide sleeve are provided in the mounting box. The button switch is slidably assembled in the upper guide sleeve, the top pin is slidably assembled in the lower guide sleeve, and the lower guide sleeve is provided with an elastic member for driving the top pin toward the swing arm.
Claims19
An operating mechanism comprising:
- a hose body defining a channel;
- a hose guide sleeve movably positioned in the channel;
- an upper guide sleeve in communication with the channel;
- a lower guide sleeve in communication with the channel;
- a button switch slidably positioned in the upper guide sleeve, wherein the button switch is configured to engage the hose guide sleeve in the channel and to transition between an initial state and an actuated state via movement of the hose guide sleeve in the channel;
- a blocking pin slidably positioned in the lower guide sleeve;
- and
- a swing arm operably coupled to the button switch and the blocking pin, wherein the button switch is configured to exert a force on the swing arm when transitioning from the initial state to the actuated state to cause the swing arm to move the blocking pin into the channel.
A hose drawing device comprising:
- a water hose;
- and
- an operating mechanism coupled to the water hose, wherein the operating mechanism comprises:
- a hose body defining a channel, wherein the water hose extends through the channel;
- a hose guide sleeve coupled to the water hose in the channel and movable with the water hose in the channel;
- an upper guide sleeve in communication with the channel;
- a lower guide sleeve in communication with the channel;
- a button switch slidably positioned in the upper guide sleeve, wherein the button switch is configured to engage the hose guide sleeve in the channel;
- a blocking pin slidably positioned in the lower guide sleeve;
- and
- a swing arm operably coupled to the button switch and the blocking pin;
- wherein the button switch is configured to transition between an initial state and an actuated state via movement of the water hose and the hose guide sleeve in the channel;
- and
- wherein the swing arm is configured to move the blocking pin into the channel via the button switch transitioning from the initial state to the actuated state.
