Abstract

A fastening positioning device for a handle of a power supply, including: a power supply having a rectangular outer case; a handle structured from upper and lower arms and a grip; a spring piece; a clasp groove defined on a side surface of the outer case, which enables the protruding portion to clasp therein; shaft pins that respectively penetrate the shaft holes and into the respective pivot joint holes defined in the surfaces of the outer case; whereby the handle is firmly positioned on the outer case without the worry that application of an inappropriate external force will cause malposition of the handle on the outer case, and protruding bulk of the handle positioned to the outer case is considerably reduced.

Claims (12)

1. A fastening positioning device for a handle of a power supply, comprising:

a power supply having a rectangular outer case, pivot joint holes are respectively defined in upper and lower surfaces of the outer case;

a handle structured from horizontally distributed upper and lower arms and a vertical grip, wherein two shaft holes are respectively defined in rear ends of the upper and lower arms, and a recess is defined in an outer surface of the grip of the handle;

a spring piece, interior of which is configured an inwardly inclined fixed piece that is fixed in the recess, and a periphery of the fixed piece forms a narrow through hole, a protruding portion is stamped out of a front portion of the spring piece, thereby causing the protruding portion to protrude out from an inner surface of the spring piece; the spring piece is formed by stamping an elastic deformable metallic material;

a clasp groove defined on a side surface of the outer case, which enables the protruding portion to clasp therein;

two shaft pins that respectively penetrate the two shaft holes and into the respective pivot joint holes defined in the upper and lower surfaces.

2. The fastening positioning device for a handle of a power supply according to claim 1 , wherein a position fixing protuberance is configured on the upper surface or the lower surface of the outer case, and the position fixing protuberance is provided with a side surface;

at least one side edge of the upper and lower arms abuts against the side surface.

3. The fastening positioning device for a handle of a power supply according to claims 1 or 2 , wherein a chamfer is formed on a side of the recess of the handle, creating an inclined concave surface;

a rear side surface of the spring piece forms a press portion, which when subjected to pressure causes elastic displacement of the inclined concave surface.

4. The fastening positioning device for a handle of a power supply according to claims 1 or 2 , wherein protruding pins are configured in the recess of the handle;

connecting holes are defined in the fixed piece, which enable the protruding pins to connect therein, thereby fixing the spring piece within the recess.
