GUN HOLSTER CLAMPING STRUCTURE
A gun holster clamping structure installed between a fixed portion and a rotating holster of a gun holster for controlling the timing of rotating the gun holster comprises a clamping portion disposed on the rotating holster and having an end protruded towards the fixed portion, a latch portion disposed on the rotating holster and having an end protruded from the fixed portion and a gun handle, and another end abutting against the clamping portion for linking and displacing the clamping portion, such that the rotating holster can be rotated to draw out the handgun. Normally, the clamping portion clamps the rotating holster and prevents another party to draw out the handgun. If a user grips the gun handle and links the latch portion accordingly, the clamping portion can be released from the clamping function of the rotating holster, and the user can achieve a quick draw of the handgun.
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a gun holster clamping structure, and more particularly to an anti-snatch structure of a rotating gun holster.
2. Description of the Related Art
With reference to
The aforementioned gun holster structure is a gun holster structure most complying with the required ergonomic design at present and used extensively in military and police equipments. However, the aforementioned rotating holster does not come with any clamping or anti-snatch function, and thus a robber or a second party can snatch away the handgun from a front side or a back side of the user. Since the rotating holster can be rotated, the handgun can be drawn out and snatched away easily.
Therefore, related manufacturers developed an anti-snatch structure to restrict the rotating holster 2 in a way that the gun can be drawn successfully only if the rotating holster 2 is rotated and tilted forward. In
Although the aforementioned method can restrict the rotating holster 2 to be tilted forward before the handgun can be drawn, the structure is too complicated, and a robber or a second party can similarly draw the handgun from the front side of the user. Obviously, it is an important subject for related manufacturers to provide a gun holster clamping structure capable of controlling the timing of rotating the rotating holster.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTIONTherefore, it is a primary objective of the present invention to provide a gun holster clamping structure capable of controlling the timing of rotating a rotating holster of a gun holster clamping structure to achieve an anti-snatch effect.
To achieve the foregoing objective, the present invention discloses a gun holster clamping structure installed between a fixed portion and a rotating holster of the gun holster clamping structure, and the structure comprises:
-
- a clamping portion, disposed on the rotating holster and corresponding to the fixed portion, and an end of the clamping portion being protruded towards the fixed portion and in contact with or away from the fixed portion selectively for controlling a rotation of the rotating holster to provide a clamping function; and
- a latch portion, disposed on the rotating holster, for linking the clamping portion, and an end of the latch portion being protruded from the fixed portion and a gun handle, and another end abutting against the clamping portion for controlling the clamping portion, such that the rotating holster can be rotated to draw out a handgun accordingly.
If a user grips a gun handle of a handgun to link the latch portion, the clamping portion will be displaced and released from the clamping function of the rotating holster, and thus the user can achieve a quick draw of the handgun. If another party snatches the handgun from a front side or a back side of the user, the latch portion cannot be touched, and the rotating holster remains clamped to prevent such party from drawing out the handgun, so as to achieve the anti-snatch effect.
Based on the aforementioned characteristics of the invention, the clamping portion is an insert pin passed and connected to the rotating holster, wherein when the insert pin is normally inserted or abutted at a side of the fixed portion, the rotating holster produces a clamping function and fixing the rotating holster at a specific angle.
Based on the aforementioned characteristics of the invention, the latch portion is an elastic snap plate for controlling a displacement of the insert pin and retracting the fixed portion, such that the rotating holster can be rotated accordingly to achieve a quick draw of the handgun.
Based on the aforementioned characteristics of the invention, the latch portion is installed onto the rotating holster between the fixed portion and the gun handle of the handgun, and the latch portion corresponds to the gun handle of the handgun, such that when a user draws the handgun, the user can apply a force onto the latch portion by a thumb to release the clamping function of the rotating holster.
The objects, effects and technical characteristics of the present invention will become apparent with the detailed description of the preferred embodiments and the illustration of the related drawings as follows.
The present invention can be applied solely on a gun holster or used together with other conventional anti-snatch structures, and the invention is not limited to any one of these arrangements only.
In
The latch portion 20 is installed onto the rotating holster 1 and provided for linking the clamping portion 10, and an end of the latch portion 20 is protruded between the fixed portion 1 and a gun handle of a handgun, and another end is abutted at and connected to the clamping portion 10 (as shown in
In this embodiment, the rotating holster 2 of the gun holster is provided for installing the clamping portion 10 and the latch portion 20, and a groove portion 30 is formed on a surface at a side of the gun handle for pivotally coupling the latch portion 20 (as shown in
While the invention has been described by device of specific embodiments, numerous modifications and variations could be made thereto by those generally skilled in the art without departing from the scope and spirit of the invention set forth in the claims.
Claims
1. A gun holster clamping structure, installed between a fixed portion and a rotating holster of the gun holster structure, and comprising:
- a clamping portion, disposed on the rotating holster and corresponding to the fixed portion, and an end of the clamping portion being protruded towards the fixed portion and being in contact with or away from the fixed portion selectively, for controlling a rotation of the rotating holster to provide a clamping function; and
- a latch portion, disposed on the rotating holster, for linking the clamping portion, and an end of the latch portion being protruded from the fixed portion and a gun handle, and another end abutting against the clamping portion for controlling the clamping portion, such that the rotating holster can be rotated to draw a handgun accordingly.
2. The gun holster clamping structure of claim 1, wherein the clamping portion is an insert pin passed into and coupled to the rotating holster.
