    Summary: In this paper, we give combinatorial proofs and new generalizations of \(q\)-series identities of \textit{K. Dilcher} [Discrete Math. 145, No. 1--3, 83--93 (1995; Zbl 0834.05005)] and \textit{K. Uchimura} [J. Comb. Theory, Ser. A 31, 131--135 (1981; Zbl 0473.05006)] related to divisor function. Some interesting combinatorial results related to partition and arm-length are also presented.
