[0042] In order to enable a further understanding of the object, structure, features and functions of the present application, detailed description is given below in conjunction with embodiments.

[0043] REFERENCE Figure 1 According to an embodiment of the present application, a support module 10 is provided, which can be installed on a display stand 15. The support module 10 includes a chassis portion 100 configured to be positioned on the display stand 15, a tab portion 200 disposed on the chassis portion 100, and a support portion 300 connected to the tab portion 200.

[0044] Specifically, the support module 10 according to the present embodiment can be positioned on the display stand 15 by positioning the chassis portion 100 on the display stand 15. In this regard, the chassis portion 100 of the support module 10 and the display stand 15 can have mutually matching structures for fixation or can be assembled with each other using any positioning means. For example, positioning structures can be provided on the chassis portion 100 corresponding to the target display stand 15 intended to be installed, or vice versa, positioning structures can be provided on the display stand 15 corresponding to the chassis portion 100, or the chassis portion 100 can be directly installed and fixed on the display stand 15 by another means such as, but not limited to, welding, etc. As described above, those skilled in the art should understand the structures or ways of positioning the chassis portion 100 and the display stand 15 with each other, and thus will not be described herein.

[0045] As described above, the chassis portion 100 positioned on the display stand 15 can define a receiving space S corresponding to the display stand 15. The receiving space S can receive the tab portion 200 of the support module 10. Specifically, the tab portion 200 can be disposed on the chassis portion 100, and thus can be received in the receiving space S defined by the chassis portion 100.

[0046] As described above, in the assembled support module 10, the tab portion 200 can be shifted in the first direction D1 relative to the chassis portion 100 to switch to different modes. For example, along with Figure 1 REFERENCE Figure 2A and Figure 2B The tab portion 200 can be shifted in the first direction D1 relative to the chassis portion 100 to switch to the first mode M1 (e.g., a keyboard hanging mode), the second mode M2 (e.g., a storage box hanging mode), and the third mode M3 (e.g., a display support mode). Figure 2A) and the second mode M2 Figure 2B The tab portion 200 is located in the receiving space S in the first mode M1 and at least partially extends out of the receiving space S in the second mode M2. As shown in Figure 2B The support portion 300 connected to the tab portion 200 can be configured to extend out of the display stand 15 in the second mode M2 and can further support or carry a predetermined object.

[0047] According to some embodiments, as shown in Figures 1 to 2B The support module 10 can further include a stand housing 700. The stand housing 700 can cover the chassis portion 100 and other components of the support module 10, and thus can define a receiving space S for receiving the tab portion 200 together with the chassis portion 100. In this way, the appearance integrity or aesthetics of the installed support module 10 can be improved, or the components such as the chassis portion 100 and the tab portion 200 can be protected to reduce or avoid damage to these components. As mentioned above, with the optional stand housing 700, the stand housing 700 can have an opening OP such that the tab portion 200 can pass through the opening OP to enter or exit the receiving space S in the first direction D1 to switch between the first mode M1 and the second mode M2. For example, the stand housing 700 can have a side surface 710 and a top surface 720, and the opening OP can be formed at an end edge where the side surface 710 and the top surface 720 meet. In addition, in some embodiments, when the stand housing 700 is installed, the opening OP end edge can be connected to a notch U that can facilitate applying force to the tab portion 200 or the support portion 300. Thus, when the support portion 300 can block or engage with the opening OP, the operator can still apply force to pull out the tab portion 200 and the support portion 300 connected thereto by reaching into the notch U.

[0048] According to some embodiments, as shown in Figure 2A When the support portion 300 is in the first mode M1, at least a portion of the opening OP can be covered or blocked. For example, the support portion 300 can be formed in the form of a long strip baffle, and the opening OP can be formed in the form of a long strip opening, so as to be partially covered or blocked by the long strip baffle.

[0049] In addition, in addition to other components of the support module 10, the stand housing 700 can also block or cover part or all of the display stand 15, as shown in Figure 2A and Figure 2B In this way, the appearance of the display stand 15 and the support module 10 mounted thereon can be integrally formed. However, this is only an example, and according to other embodiments, the stand housing 700 can not be provided or the stand housing 700 can have other shapes or forms. As mentioned above, other embodiments of the present application are not limited to the specific examples shown.

[0050] Next, based on the above description, the following will be described.Figure 3 Together Figures 4 to 11 The structure, assembly configuration, and relative actuation relationships of each component of the support module 10 are described in detail. Among them, Figure 3 An enlarged exploded view of the components supporting module 10; Figures 4 to 5 This is a top view of the support module 10 in the first mode M1. Figures 6 to 7 This is a cross-sectional view of the support module 10 under the first mode M1 (alongside the support module 10). Figure 5 (The A-A' section line and the B-B' section line); Figures 8 to 9 This is a top view of the support module 10 in the second mode M2; and Figures 10 to 11 This is a cross-sectional view of the support module 10 in the second mode M2 ​​(alongside the support module 10). Figure 9 (The C-C' section line and the D-D' section line).

[0051] As described above, according to one embodiment, refer to Figure 3 The chassis portion 100 may have a base plate 105 and a first protruding structure P1 protruding from the base plate 105 in a vertical direction Dv. Correspondingly, the insert portion 200 may have a first notch N1 formed on the side of the insert portion 200 facing away from the support portion 300. Continuing from the above, when... Figure 4 When the insert portion 200 is assembled onto the chassis portion 100, the first protruding structure P1 can be accommodated in the first notch N1. Based on this configuration, refer to... Figure 4 and Figure 8 When the insert portion 200 slides relative to the chassis portion 100 along the first direction D1 and switches between the first mode M1 and the second mode M2, the first protruding structure P1 can slide in the first notch N1.

[0052] Next, continue to refer to Figure 3 According to one embodiment, the support module 10 may further have a pressure plate 400 disposed on the insert portion 200. Continuing from the above, as... Figure 4 , Figure 5 (Mode 1) and Figure 8 , Figure 9 As shown in the top view of (Second Mode M2), the pressure plate 400 can press and hold the insert portion 200 and abut against the first protruding structure P1, or be locked and fixed to the chassis portion 100 by means of the first protruding structure P1. For example, as Figure 3 As shown, screw holes 405 can be provided on the pressure plate 400, and corresponding screw holes 405' can be provided on the first protruding structure P1. Thus, the pressure plate 400 can be locked and fixed to the chassis portion 100 by screws 450 passing through these screw holes 405 and 405'. As described above, the locking protruding screws 450 further strengthen the limiting of the insert portion 200 in the second direction D2, thereby preventing misalignment or loosening of the insert portion 200 in the second direction D2 when it slides in the first direction D1.

[0053] Further, as shown in Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 9 and Figure 10 , the pressing piece 400 can clamp the insert piece 200 together with the base plate 100 in the vertical direction Dv. For example, the pressing piece 400 can be a metal spring piece having elasticity as a whole with an arc bending and protruding towards the insert piece 200 on both sides in the first direction D1. In this way, the insert piece 200 can be pushed by the elasticity of the pressing piece 400 to have space to slide along the first direction D1, but is fixed in the vertical direction Dv by being clamped by the pressing piece 400 and the base plate 100. Therefore, dislocation or loosening in the vertical direction Dv when the insert piece 200 slides in the first direction D1 can be further avoided. However, the shape and material of the pressing piece 400 described above are only examples, and the pressing piece 400 can be of any material or form and can clamp the insert piece 200 together with the base plate 100 in the vertical direction Dv and allow the insert piece 200 to slide along the first direction D1. In addition, according to some embodiments, the pressing piece 400 can also be fixedly positioned on the base plate 100 by means other than the locking screw 450 to clamp the insert piece 200, and the present application is not limited to the implementation described above.

[0054] In addition, according to other embodiments of the present application, as shown in Figure 3 , in addition to the first notch N1 and the first protruding structure P1, the insert piece 200 can further have a second notch N2, and the base plate 100 can have a second protruding structure P2. As above, the relative assembly configuration or action relationship of the second notch N2 and the second protruding structure P2 can be the same as or similar to that of the first notch N1 and the first protruding structure P1, and the pressing piece 400 can further abut or be locked and fixed on the base plate 100 by the second protruding structure P2. These should be analogous from the above description, and will not be repeated here.

[0055] Further, with reference to Figure 3 , according to some embodiments, the base plate 100 can also have a first bump B1 protruding from the base plate 105 along the vertical direction Dv. Specifically, the first bump B1 can be arranged on a second direction D2 perpendicular to the first direction D1 and the vertical direction Dv to limit the insert piece 200 to avoid the insert piece 200 from deviating in the second direction D2. Correspondingly, the insert piece 200 can further have a limiting bump d1 protruding towards the first bump B1 in the second direction D2. As above, as shown in Figure 8 and Figure 11As shown, when the blade portion 200 is slided relative to the chassis portion 100 to the extracted second mode M2, the limiting bump d1 can interfere and abut against one end of the first protrusion B1 facing away from the support portion 300. Thus, in the second mode M2, the blade portion 200 can be retained in the chassis portion 100 without continuing to be extracted away from the chassis portion 100 along the first direction D1.

[0056] In addition, according to some embodiments, with reference to Figure 3 , the first protrusion B1 towards the support portion 300 can have a first recess R1 retracted along the second direction D2, and the portion of the blade portion 200 close to the support portion 300 can have a first lug r1 protruding along the second direction D2. As Figure 4 shown, in the first mode M1, the first lug r1 can abut against the first protrusion B1 and be accommodated in the first recess R1, so that the blade portion 200 can no longer be moved along the first direction D1 away from the support portion 300, thereby more stably positioning the blade portion 200 relative to the chassis portion 100 in the first mode M1.

[0057] Similarly, as Figure 3 shown, the chassis portion 100 can also have a second protrusion B2, and the blade portion 200 can have a limiting bump d2 protruding towards the second protrusion B2 in the second direction D2, and the relative arrangement or action relationship between the second protrusion B2 and the limiting bump d2 can be the same or similar to that between the first protrusion B1 and the limiting bump d1 described above, and assist in limiting the blade portion 200 in the second mode M2. In addition, the second protrusion B2 can also similarly have a second recess R2, and the blade portion 200 can have a second lug r2 corresponding to the second recess R2, and the relative arrangement or action relationship between the second recess R2 and the second lug r2 can be the same or similar to that between the first recess R1 and the first lug r1 described above. As mentioned above, these contents should be inferred from the above description, and will not be described here.

[0058] In addition, with continued reference to Figure 3 , the chassis portion 100 can further have a first vertical wall W1 protruding from the bottom plate 105 along the vertical direction Dv. As mentioned above, the first vertical wall W1 is located on one side of the first protrusion B1 away from the support portion 300 and is spaced apart from the first protrusion B1. In addition, the support module 10 can further include a first limiting member 500 disposed on the chassis portion 100. Specifically, the above-mentioned first limiting member 500 has a first vertical plate 510 and a first pressing plate 510'. Among them, together with Figure 3 With further reference to Figure 5 , Figure 7 the first mode M1) and Figure 9 , Figure 11(Second Mode M2) The first upright plate 510 is configured to attach and fix the aforementioned first upright wall W1, and the first pressure plate 510' is connected to the end of the first upright plate 510 facing away from the bottom plate 105, and extends and presses against the first protrusion B1 at an angle to the first upright plate 510. For example, it can be achieved by... Figure 3 The screw 550 shown passes through the first pressure plate 510' and locks the first limiting member 500 onto the chassis portion 100 or the intended display bracket 15. Furthermore, the first limiting member 500 further limits the insert portion 200 in the vertical direction Dv and the second direction D2, preventing the insert portion 200 from disengaging or misaligning in the vertical direction Dv and the second direction D2 when moving along the first direction D1.

[0059] Furthermore, according to various embodiments of the present invention, the first limiting member 500 may be substantially integrally formed with the chassis portion 100 or be a separate independent component. For example, the first limiting member 500 may be a sheet-like structure extending from the first vertical wall W1 or another sheet-like structure attached to the first vertical wall W1, and may further extend and press against the first protrusion B1 to perform a corresponding limiting function.

[0060] Furthermore, according to some embodiments, when the insert portion 200 has a limiting protrusion d1, the first upright plate 510 may be elastic. Therefore, when the insert portion 200 is slidably moved along the first direction D1, the limiting protrusion d1 can pass through the first upright plate 510 by bending or concave bending. For example, when moving the insert portion 200 with force along the first direction D1... Figure 4 , Figure 5 ,and Figure 7 The first mode M1 shown is moved to Figure 8 , Figure 9 and Figure 11 In the second mode M2 ​​shown, the limiting protrusion d1 can pass through the first upright plate 510 by bending or concave the first upright plate 510 and enter the space jointly defined by the first upright plate 510 and the first protrusion B1. Therefore, in the second mode M2, when the insert portion 200 slides along the first direction D1 without applying force, the limiting protrusion d1 can be positioned by the first upright plate 510 and the first protrusion B1, thereby fixing the entire insert portion 200 in the second mode M2. However, the above is only an example, and the present invention is not limited thereto. For example, when the first upright plate 510 is not elastic, a hole can be opened on the first upright plate 510 to allow the limiting protrusion d1 to pass through, or the first upright plate 510 and the predetermined path through which the limiting protrusion d1 passes can be misaligned.

[0061] Reference Figure 3, the chassis portion 100 can also similarly further have a second vertical wall W2 protruding from the bottom plate 105 along the vertical direction Dv. In addition, the support module 10 can similarly further include a second limiting member 600 disposed on the chassis portion 100, and the second limiting member 600 can have a second vertical plate 610 and a second pressing plate 610', and can be fixedly attached to the chassis portion 100 or the intended display support 15, for example, by a screw 650 passing through the second pressing plate 610'. In continuation, the relative configuration and operational relationship of the second vertical wall W2 and the second limiting member 600 can be the same as or similar to that of the first vertical wall W1 and the first limiting member 500 described above. Such content can be analogized from the above description, and will not be described again here.

[0062] Furthermore, according to some embodiments, with reference to Figure 3 , and Figure 6 (first mode M1) and Figure 10 (second mode M2), the bottom plate 105 can further have a first groove G1 formed thereon, and one side of the insert portion 200 facing the bottom plate 105 can have a first protrusion F1. In continuation, as shown in the cross-sectional view of Figure 6 and Figure 10 , the first protrusion F1 can be inserted into the first groove G1, and when the insert portion 200 slides along the first direction D1 relative to the chassis portion 100, the first protrusion F1 can move along the first groove G1.

[0063] Specifically, according to some embodiments, as shown in Figure 6 and Figure 10 , the first groove G1 along the first direction D1 can have a receiving limiting groove GA, a supporting limiting groove GP, and a channel portion C located between the receiving limiting groove GA and the supporting limiting groove GP, respectively. In continuation, the depths at which the receiving limiting groove GA and the supporting limiting groove GP are recessed from the surface E of the bottom plate 105 can be greater than that of the channel portion C. By such a configuration, when in the first mode M1 as shown in Figure 6 , the first protrusion F1 can be located, for example, engaged in the receiving limiting groove GA; and when in the second mode M2 as shown in Figure 10 , the first protrusion F1 can be located, for example, engaged in the supporting limiting groove GP. By this, the stability of the insert portion 200 when switched to be fixed in the first mode M1 or the second mode M2 can be further improved, and a sense of segmental delay when switching different modes can be provided, thereby improving the reliability and operability of the support module 10, and facilitating the operator to determine whether to switch to the intended mode.

[0064] In addition to the first groove G1, the support module 10 according to the embodiments of the present application can further have a second groove G2 and its corresponding second protrusion under the tab 200. As such, the relative configuration and operational relationship of the second groove G2 and its corresponding second protrusion can be the same or similar to that of the first groove G1 and its corresponding first protrusion F1. Such content can be inferred from the above description, and will not be repeated here.

[0065] Next, please refer to Figure 12 , according to an embodiment of the present application, when the support module 10 is switched to the second mode M2, the tab 200 can be pushed out of the display support 15, and the support portion 300 can thus be used to support or carry the predetermined object O. For example, the support portion 300 can be formed as a baffle B, such as a long rectangular plate extending along the second direction D2. As such, the predetermined object O can be hung on the baffle B. For example, the predetermined object O can have a positioning structure 80 that can be supported or engaged by the support portion 300, such as the baffle B, and can thus be supported or carried by the support portion 300, such as the baffle B.

[0066] According to some embodiments, the positioning structure 80 that can be supported or engaged by the support portion 300, such as the baffle B, can be a notch 800. For example, the predetermined object O can have a notch 800 formed thereon, the notch 800 having an entrance 810 for the baffle B to enter, and a containment space 820 defined by a support wall T and a plurality of side walls K in communication with the entrance 810. In detail, please refer to Figure 12 Figure 13 When the support module 10 according to the embodiments of the present application is in the second mode M2, the support portion 300 protrudes relative to the display support 15. Therefore, the predetermined object O can be hung on the baffle B by making the baffle B enter the containment space 820 from the entrance 810 along the route Q to abut against the support wall T.

[0067] As described above, according to the present embodiment, as shown in Figure 12 and Figure 13 , the containment space 820 can be partially surrounded by the support wall T and the plurality of side walls K, and can have a slot 825 through which the tab 200 connected to the support portion 300 can pass.

[0068] In addition, according to some embodiments, please refer to Figure 14 ​In the positioning structure 80, the plurality of side walls K can have, for example, a first side wall K1 and a second side wall K2 facing each other, and the baffle B as the support portion 300 can be further defined by the first side wall K1 and the second side wall K2 to enhance the positioning and support. Further, the inner side surface SC of the first side wall K1 can have a protruding first limiting protrusion L1. For example, according to an embodiment, the baffle B as the support portion 300 can directly abut against the support wall T of the predetermined object O by the weight of the predetermined object O, so that the predetermined object O is supported or carried by the baffle B of the support portion 300. Then, in this case, according to some embodiments, the thickness TC of the baffle B along the direction D connecting the first side wall K1 and the second side wall K2 is greater than the width TH of the gap 830 defined by the first limiting protrusion L1 and the second side wall K2. In this way, when the baffle B is arranged in the accommodation space 820, the dislocation or falling of the predetermined object O caused by collision or movement shaking and the like can be further reduced or avoided by positioning and limiting by the first limiting protrusion L1 when the display stand 15 and the support module 10 erected thereon are arranged or transported. Therefore, the stability and reliability of the predetermined object O supported or carried by the support module 10 can be further improved and enhanced.

[0069] In addition, according to other embodiments, the thickness TC of the baffle B can also be equal to or less than the width TH of the gap 830. In this embodiment, the support module 10 can be arranged so that when the predetermined object O is hung in the second mode M2, the baffle B is relatively close to the first side wall K1 and is stopped by the first limiting protrusion L1, so as to reduce or avoid the baffle B from unexpectedly crossing the first limiting protrusion L1 and falling out.

[0070] According to an embodiment, if the thickness TC of the baffle B is greater than the width TH of the gap 830, the support portion 300 (such as the baffle B) in the accommodation space 820 can be moved out by applying an external force to dislocate or deform the first side wall K1, or the support portion 300 (such as the baffle B) can be moved in to be engaged in the accommodation space 820. If the thickness TC of the baffle B is equal to or less than the width TH of the gap 830, the support portion 300 (such as the baffle B) can be directly and simply forced to move away from the first side wall K1 toward the second side wall K2 to cross the first limiting protrusion L1 and fall out. In the foregoing, according to some embodiments, there can be a distance from the first limiting protrusion L1 to the entrance 810, thereby increasing the disengagement travel distance for moving out the support portion 300. In this way, even if the support portion 300 (such as the baffle B) crosses the first limiting protrusion L1 toward the entrance 810 due to stronger vibration or pushing, it still needs to move a distance to be released or moved out. Therefore, when the predetermined object O is arranged, used or transported, the possibility of unexpected disengagement can be reduced or avoided, so that the stability and reliability of the predetermined object O supported or carried by the support module 10 based on the display stand 15 can be further improved and enhanced.

[0071] In addition, according to other embodiments, other limiting protrusions can be provided in addition to the first limiting protrusion L1, and are not limited to being provided on the first side wall K1. With the above description, those having ordinary knowledge in the art should understand that such changes are possible, and will not be described again here.

[0072] Next, as shown in FIG. 10, referring to the description of FIGS. 8 and 9, if the entrance 810 and the accommodation space 820 are respectively arranged along the gravity direction H, the predetermined article O can be hung on the support module 10 (the predetermined article O is moved downward along the gravity direction H) or unloaded from the support module 10 (the predetermined article O is moved upward along the gravity direction H), for example, but not limited to, by moving the predetermined article O up and down along the gravity direction H. In this way, the predetermined article O can be easily supported or carried by the display support 15 based on the support module 10 or removed from the support module 10. Therefore, the space utilization with respect to the display support 15 and the convenience of placing or transporting the predetermined article O can be improved. In addition, according to the present embodiment, the operation process is easy and intuitive when the predetermined article O is accommodated or unloaded, without complicated steps.

For example, the handle 900 can be used to lift the display support 15 upward along the gravity direction H. In this embodiment, the support module 10 can be arranged lower than the handle 900 along the gravity direction H, so that the support module 10 and the predetermined article O supported or carried thereby do not interfere with the display support 15 when the display support 15 is lifted or transported by the handle 900, and the stability of the support portion of the support module 10 abutting against the predetermined article O upward can be enhanced by applying a force upward along the gravity direction H when the display support 15 is lifted by the handle 900.

[0074] According to some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 11, the predetermined article O can be a keyboard. Therefore, the convenience of accommodating or transporting common related 3C accessories such as a display and a keyboard together can be improved.
