The Design

About No Screw Fechadura para Bagagem

No Screw é uma fechadura para malas de viagem concebida para uma montagem eficiente e uma manutenção simples. A fechadura possui duas partes separadas: um corpo de fechadura e uma carcaça de base antirretorno, unidas sem parafusos. O componente de bloqueio desliza sobre a carcaça de base para uma instalação rápida e segura, o que favorece a automatização na produção. Um manípulo de desmontagem que acompanha o produto separa as duas partes, pelo que a manutenção não exige ferramentas nem apoio profissional. Mais de 80 por cento da fechadura é fabricada em ABS leve, material que resiste ao impacto e ao desgaste e acrescenta muito pouco peso para os viajantes.

Production Technology
For efficient assembly and durability, this product features a split design with a lock body and an anti reverse base shell for a no screw design. Both assembly personnel and users can easily assemble and disassemble the lock without using additional tools, enhancing convenience and maintainability. Made from durable, lightweight ABS material, the lock ensures travelers are not burdened by extra weight while effectively resisting impact and wear for a longer lifespan.
Design Challenge
The challenge was to securely assemble the lock body and the base shell without using screws. To this end, the design team has developed an anti reverse mechanism inspired by a cable tie, which supports only one way operation. The sliding component on the the base shell features an outer protrusion that can precisely fit into the serrated edges on the lock body, ensuring secure locking and preventing reverse separation. This innovative design achieves stability without the need for screws.
Research
Emphasizing efficient assembly, easy maintenance, and green production, the lock boasts two split parts: a lock body and an anti reverse base shell for a no screw design. This simplifies assembly, lowers maintenance costs, and eliminates electroplated screws. Over 80 percent of the lock is made from environmental friendly ABS, making it lightweight and resistant to bumps and scratches. This eases the burden on travelers and extends its lifespan for less environmental impact.
Inspiration
Traditional luggage locks with screws cause inefficiency and complexity in production and maintenance. In response, this design prioritizes efficient assembly and easy maintenance by using a split structure of a lock body and an anti reverse base shell. This innovation eliminates screws entirely, simplifying assembly for enhanced production automation. It also allows users to quickly and easily disassemble and maintain the lock, making it more practical and convenient.
Project Duration
The design and development of this no screw lock started in 2020, and it was introduced to the Chinese market in 2024.
Operation Flow
The innovative split structure of a lock body and an anti reverse base shell eliminates the need for screws. Assembly becomes a breeze: just slide the locking component onto the base shell into place, and it is ready to use. This promotes productivity and automation in manufacturing. If damaged, users can easily detach the lock using the accompanying disassembly handle by pressing and sliding it to the unlock position, without resorting professional help. This makes maintenance hassle free.
