Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the technical field of brackets, and more specifically, relates to a retractable floor bracket. Background Technology

[0002] When using electronic devices such as mobile phones and tablets, people usually use stands to support them. However, these stands are inconvenient to store when not in use; in particular, the supporting components used to hold the electronic devices not only take up space but also easily collect dust. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In view of this, the present invention provides a bracket to solve the technical problem that brackets used to support electronic devices are inconvenient to store.

[0004] The technical solution of this invention is implemented as follows:

[0005] This invention provides a retractable floor stand, comprising: a support component for supporting electronic devices; a storage component having an open storage space at one end; the support component being movably connected to the inner surface of the storage component; a support component being rotatably connected to the outer surface of the storage component; and a base connected to the end of the support component away from the storage component; wherein the support component switches between a retracted state, entirely within the storage space, and an extended state, at least partially extending out of the storage space.

[0006] In some embodiments, the support assembly includes: a guide frame disposed in the storage space and slidably connected to the storage component to move within the storage space; and a support body connected to one end of the guide frame, the support body being used to support the electronic device; wherein the support body moves with the guide frame to protrude outside the storage space in the extended state.

[0007] In some embodiments, the outer wall of the guide frame is provided with a slide rail that is slidably connected to the inner surface of the storage component, the slide rail extending along the first direction, and the supporting body being connected to the end of the guide frame in the first direction.

[0008] In some embodiments, the outer side wall of the guide frame is further provided with a placement groove extending along the first direction, and a first spring is placed in the placement groove. The first spring is used to abut against the bottom wall surface of the storage component away from the supporting body and can be compressed.

[0009] In some embodiments, the supporting body includes a first supporting body and a second supporting body that are rotatably connected. In the extended state, the first supporting body and the second supporting body can rotate relative to each other to switch between a folded state and an unfolded state of the first supporting body and the second supporting body.

[0010] In some embodiments, a first tooth is provided at one end of the first carrier, and a second tooth is provided at one end of the second carrier, with the first tooth meshing with the second tooth to rotate relative to each other.

[0011] In some embodiments, the supporting body further includes a connecting frame located outside the first tooth and the second tooth, and connected to the first support body and the second support body, the connecting frame being fixed to the guide frame.

[0012] In some embodiments, a self-locking switch is further included, disposed within the storage space and connected to the storage component, the self-locking switch being used to lock and unlock the guide frame.

[0013] In some embodiments, the self-locking switch includes: a housing disposed within the storage space; an installation space having a second opening formed within the housing; and a clamping member passing through the second opening and extending into the installation space, wherein the clamping member has two clamping arms that abut against the edges of the second opening, enabling it to form a first angled state for clamping the guide frame and a second angled state for releasing the guide frame.

[0014] In some embodiments, the support assembly has a cavity, and the bracket further includes a shock-absorbing assembly disposed within the cavity and connected to the support assembly to absorb vibrations.

[0015] The floor stand of this invention incorporates a storage component. The storage component forms an open storage space at one end, and its inner surface is movably connected to a carrier component that carries the electronic device. This allows the carrier component to move along the inner surface of the storage component, switching between a fully retracted state (entering the storage space) and an extended state (at least partially outside the storage space). This enables the carrier component to be stored in the storage space when the electronic device is not in use, facilitating the overall storage of the floor stand and reducing dust accumulation on the carrier component.

[0037] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the invention.

[0038] The specific technical features described in the specific embodiments can be combined in any suitable manner without contradiction. For example, different combinations of specific technical features can form different embodiments and technical solutions. To avoid unnecessary repetition, the various possible combinations of the specific technical features in this invention will not be described separately.

[0039] In the following description, the terms "first," "second," etc., are used merely to distinguish different objects and do not indicate that the objects have the sameness or relationship. It should be understood that the directional descriptions "above," "below," "outside," and "inside" refer to the orientation under normal use conditions, while "left" and "right" refer to the left and right directions shown in the corresponding diagrams, which may or may not be the left and right directions under normal use conditions.

[0040] It should be noted that the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such a process, method, article, or apparatus. Unless otherwise specified, an element defined by the phrase "comprising one..." does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article, or apparatus that includes that element. "A plurality of" means two or more.

[0041] This invention provides a retractable floor stand that can be used to support electronic devices such as mobile phones and tablets. It should be noted that the application scenarios of this invention do not limit the structure of the stand.

[0042] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the bracket includes a load-bearing component 1, a storage component 5, a support component 2, and a base 3. The load-bearing component 1 supports electronic devices, such as mobile phones and tablets, and can be fixed by clamping, magnetic attraction, or a combination of both. The support component 2 has a certain length, and its width and thickness are relatively small compared to its length. The support component 2 can be approximated as a straight line segment or a curved segment along its length. The length direction of the support component 2, which can be understood as the direction of its largest dimension, is represented by the dashed line 'a'. Figure 1 and Figure 2 The bracket is in use, with the support component 2 in a roughly vertical position, supporting the storage component 5 at a suitable height for easy user operation. Specifically, the storage component 5 is rotatably connected to the support component 2, allowing for angle adjustment of the storage component 5, which in turn allows for adjustment of the angle of the load-bearing component 1 connected to the storage component 5. This improves user comfort when operating the electronic device held by the load-bearing component 1 and reduces user fatigue.

[0043] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the base 3 is connected to the end of the support component 2 away from the storage component 5. The base 3 is located on the side of the support component 2 along the length direction a away from the storage component 5. The base 3 can be, but is not limited to, the following three forms: First, a floor-standing base, which can be placed directly on the ground or a table. When the bracket is in use, the base, through its own weight, presses down the bottom of the support component 2 to prevent it from tipping over; second, a clamping base, which has a clamping structure and can clamp onto an external object; and third, a fixed connection base, which needs to be fixed to an external object using threaded fasteners. Here, "external object" can be understood as any object other than the bracket itself.

[0044] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a tray 7 can be mounted on the outer wall of the support component 2, and the support component 2 passes through the edge of the tray 7. The tray 7 can be used to place some lighter and smaller objects. Since the tray 7 is mounted on the support component 2, this stacked arrangement saves space on surfaces such as tabletops and floors. It can be understood that the rotatable connection between the tray 7 and the outer wall of the support component 2 facilitates orientation adjustment and makes it more convenient to pick up and put down objects on the tray 7.

[0045] like Figure 3 As shown, the storage component 5 has an internal storage space 50 with a storage opening 501, which is openable. The storage component 5 can have various shapes; the one shown is cylindrical. However, it can also be spherical, box-shaped, etc., as long as the internal storage space 50 can be formed. The storage component 5 is movably connected to the supporting component 1, and its outer surface is connected to the supporting component 2.

[0046] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the support component 1 is movably connected to the inner surface of the storage component 5. The support component 1 can switch between a fully retracted state within the storage space 50 and an extended state extending at least partially outside the storage space 50 through the storage opening 501. In other words, the support component 1 can be configured to function as follows: Figure 4 As shown, the contents pass through the storage opening 501 and all enter the storage space 50, which can also be done as... Figure 5 The portion extends at least partially out of the storage space 50 through the storage opening 501, as shown.

[0047] The floor stand of this invention incorporates a storage component. The storage component forms an open storage space at one end, and its inner surface is movably connected to a carrier component that carries the electronic device. This allows the carrier component to move along the inner surface of the storage component, switching between a fully retracted state (entering the storage space) and an extended state (at least partially outside the storage space). This enables the carrier component to be stored in the storage space when the electronic device is not in use, facilitating the overall storage of the floor stand and reducing dust accumulation on the carrier component.

[0048] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the support assembly 1 includes a guide frame 11 and a support body 12. The support body 12 is used to support electronic devices, and the guide frame 11 is used to guide the movement direction of the support body 12. The guide frame 11 is disposed within the storage space 50 and is slidably connected to the inner surface of the storage component 5. The support body 12 is connected to one end of the guide frame 11. When the guide frame 11 slides within the storage space 50, the support body 12 slides along with the guide frame 11. Furthermore, during the sliding process, the support body 12 can pass through the storage opening 501 and completely enter the storage space 50, thereby forming... Figure 4 The storage state is such that the supporting body 12 can also protrude completely out of the storage space 50 through the storage opening 501, forming... Figure 5 The extended state of the device facilitates clamping and carrying electronic equipment.

[0049] In some embodiments, such as Figure 6 As shown, the outer wall of the guide frame 11 is provided with a slide rail 111 that is slidably connected to the inner surface of the storage component 5. The storage component 5 has a storage opening 501 at one end in the first direction. The slide rail 111 extends along the first direction. The supporting body 12 is connected to the end of the guide frame 11 in the first direction, so that the supporting body 12 can move along the first direction with the guide frame 11 to pass through the storage opening 501 and reach the inner and outer sides of the storage space 50. Here, the first direction can be understood as... Figure 6 The left and right directions, or the extension direction of the cylindrical storage component 5, are indicated by the dashed line b.

[0050] like Figure 6As shown, to reduce the tilting of the guide frame 11 during movement, the inner wall of the storage component 5 is provided with a groove 52, which extends along the first direction b, and the slide rail 111 slides into the groove 52. It is understood that if the slide rail 111 is located on the inner wall of the storage component 5, and the groove 52 is located on the outer wall of the guide frame 11, the guide frame 11 can also move along the first direction b, passing through the storage opening 501 to reach the inner and outer sides of the storage space 50. It is understood that multiple slide rails 111 and grooves 52 can be provided, all spaced circumferentially. This results in a more uniform force distribution between the guide frame 11 and the storage component 5 during movement, reducing the tilting of the guide frame 11 relative to the first direction.

[0051] In some embodiments, such as Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the outer wall of the guide frame 11 is also provided with a placement groove 112 extending along the first direction b. A first spring 13 is placed in the placement groove 112. The first spring 13 is used to abut against the bottom wall surface 51 of the storage component 5 away from the supporting body 12 and can form a compressed state. The bottom wall surface 51 of the storage component 5 can be understood as the inner surface of the storage component 5 away from the storage opening 501. It can be understood that, as... Figure 9 As shown, the placement slot 112 has at least a first port 1121 away from the supporting body 12. The first port 1121 allows the first spring 13 or a component connected to the first spring 13 to extend out of the first port 1121 and abut against the bottom wall surface 51 of the storage member 5.

[0052] like Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the end of the placement groove 112 away from the bottom wall surface 51 is closed. Closed can be understood as having no opening. The surface formed by the closure at one end of the placement groove 112 can block the first spring 13. Then, one end of the first spring 13 abuts against the bottom wall surface 51, and the other end abuts against the surface formed by the closure of the placement groove 112, so the first spring 13 can be compressed.

[0053] like Figure 7 , Figure 8 and Figure 9As shown, to reduce the probability of the first spring 13 slipping out of the placement groove 112 and to reduce wear on the bottom wall surface 51 of the storage component 5, the end of the first spring 13 extending out of the first port 1121 also has a connecting plug 14 and a pin 15. Specifically, the plug 14 is movably connected inside the first port 1121; the plug 14 has an insertion hole 141 perpendicular to the first direction, and the placement groove 112 has a slot 1122 penetrating the inner and outer sides of the placement groove 112. The pin 15 passes through the slot 1122 and is fixedly connected to the insertion hole 141 of the plug 14. The slot 1122 penetrates the inner and outer sides of the placement groove 112, extends along the first direction, and the extension length of the slot 1122 is approximately the same as the extension length inside the placement groove 112. When assembling the first spring 13, the plug 14, and the pin 15, the first spring 13 can be placed in the placement groove 112 first. Then, the plug 14 can be inserted into the placement groove 112 from the outside of the first port 1121 along the first direction. Finally, the pin 15 can be passed through the groove 1122 and inserted into the insertion hole 141 of the plug 14. The pin 15 and the plug 14 are tightly fitted. This tight fit means that the pin 15 is not easy to fall out of the insertion hole 141 of the plug 14 when no external force is applied.

[0054] In this embodiment of the invention, the arrangement of a first spring, a plug, and a pin ensures that when the guide frame moves along a first direction and approaches the bottom wall, the first spring, the plug, and the pin all move together with the guide frame. After the plug touches the bottom wall, it moves in the opposite direction, compressing the first spring. Because the first spring is compressed, a force is generated that pushes the guide frame towards the supporting body. At this time, the guide frame has a tendency to move towards the supporting body, thereby facilitating the passage of the supporting assembly through the receiving opening and forming an extended state.

[0055] In some embodiments, such as Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown, the supporting body 12 includes a first supporting body 12a and a second supporting body 12b. The connection between the first supporting body 12a, the second supporting body 12b, and the guide frame 11 can be any of the following connection methods. First: As shown... Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown in the figure, the first support body 12a and the second support body 12b are rotatably connected to the guide frame 11, and the first support body 12a and the second support body 12b are rotatably connected. A second configuration: only the first support body 12a is rotatably connected to the guide frame 11, and the first support body 12a and the second support body 12b are rotatably connected. A third configuration: only the second support body 12b is rotatably connected to the guide frame 11, and the first support body 12a and the second support body 12b are rotatably connected.

[0056] like Figure 5 and Figure 7As shown, in the extended state, the first support body 12a and the second support body 12b can rotate relative to each other to achieve a folded state (e.g., ...). Figure 10 (as shown) and unfolded state (as shown) Figure 11 Switching between (as shown). It can be understood that the first support 12a and the second support 12b have projections in a certain plane, for example, in... Figure 10 In the indicated position, the first support body 12a and the second support body 12b are projected into the horizontal plane and have corresponding projections. If the projections of the two bodies mostly or completely overlap, the first support body 12a and the second support body 12b are in a folded state; if the projections of the two bodies only partially overlap or do not overlap at all, the first support body 12a and the second support body 12b are in an unfolded state.

[0057] In this embodiment of the invention, the first carrier and the second carrier are rotatably connected, so that the first carrier and the second carrier can be folded or unfolded in the extended state, so as to facilitate the storage and clamping of electronic devices.

[0058] In some embodiments, such as Figure 11 and Figure 12 As shown, one end of the first support body 12a is provided with a first tooth 121a, and one end of the second support body 12b is provided with a second tooth 121b. The first tooth 121a and the second tooth 121b mesh to rotate relative to each other. Thus, when the user folds or unfolds the support assembly 1, if one of the first support body 12a or the second support body 12b is moved, the other will fold or unfold accordingly. The connection between the first support body 12a, the second support body 12b, and the guide frame 11 can be one of three methods as described above. However, to avoid the need to fold or unfold the support body 12 relative to the guide frame 11 after the first support body 12a and the second support body 12b have folded or unfolded, the connection between the first support body 12a, the second support body 12b, and the guide frame 11 can adopt the first method described above, that is, the first support body 12a and the second support body 12b are rotatably connected to the guide frame 11.

[0059] like Figure 12 As shown, both the first toothed portion 121a and the second toothed portion 121b are provided with multiple teeth spaced circumferentially. The circumferential angle of the multiple teeth of the first toothed portion 121a and the circumferential angle of each tooth of the second toothed portion 121b are both 90 degrees or slightly greater than 90 degrees, so that the first carrier 12a and the second carrier 12b are in a folded state (e.g., Figure 5 (as shown) and unfolded state (as shown) Figure 11When switching between the first tooth section 121a and the second tooth section 121b, the first tooth section 121a and the second tooth section 121b always remain engaged. The surrounding angle of the multiple teeth of the first tooth section 121a can be understood as the arc formed by the multiple teeth of the first tooth section 121a surrounding the rotation center of the first tooth section 121a; the surrounding angle of the multiple teeth of the second tooth section 121b can also be understood in the same way.

[0060] like Figure 12 As shown, each tooth of the first tooth 121a and the second tooth 121b is elongated, so when the first tooth 121a and the second tooth 121b mesh with each other, they can stably transmit torque.

[0061] In some embodiments, such as Figure 11 and 12 As shown, the supporting body 12 also includes a connecting frame 16. The connecting frame 16 is disposed outside the first tooth 121a and the second tooth 121b, and is connected to the first supporting body 12a and the second supporting body 12b. The connecting frame 16 is fixed to the guide frame 11. A first through hole 1211a is provided at the rotation center of the first tooth 121a, and a second through hole 1211b is provided at the rotation center of the second tooth 121b. Correspondingly, the connecting frame 16 is provided with two sets of connecting holes. Figure 12 and 13 As shown, a first connecting shaft passes through the first through hole 1211a and the first set of connecting holes 161, so that the first support body 12a is hinged to the connecting frame 16; a second connecting shaft passes through the second through hole 1211b and the second set of connecting holes 162, so that the second support body 12b is hinged to the connecting frame 16; and the connecting frame 16 has a notch 163 for folding and unfolding the first support body 12a and the second support body 12b, the notch 163 extending through the edge of the connecting frame 16. Thus, the first tooth 121a and the second tooth 121b fold and unfold within the connecting frame 16.

[0062] like Figure 6 As shown, the cross-sectional area of ​​the connecting frame 16 along the first direction is smaller than the cross-sectional area of ​​the storage opening 501 (the cross-sectional area of ​​the storage opening 501 can be understood as the plane connecting the inner and outer sides of the storage component 5), so the connecting frame 16 can pass through the storage opening 501 to enter the inner and outer sides of the storage component 5.

[0063] like Figure 11 As shown, when the supporting body 12 is unfolded, the connecting frame 16 not only connects the first supporting body 12a and the second supporting body 12b together, but also has the function of supporting electronic devices.

[0064] In some embodiments, such as Figure 12As shown, a first telescopic cavity (not shown) is formed at the end of the first carrier 12a away from the first tooth 121a. A first telescopic portion 123a, which can extend into and out of the first telescopic cavity, is connected to the inner wall of the first telescopic cavity. A first clamping portion 124a is hinged to the end of the first telescopic portion 123a away from the first tooth 121a, and the first clamping portion 124a is foldable and unfoldable relative to the first carrier 12a. Similarly, a second telescopic cavity (not shown) is formed at the end of the second carrier 12b away from the second tooth 121b. A second telescopic portion 123b, which can extend into and out of the second telescopic cavity, is connected to the inner wall of the second telescopic cavity. A second clamping portion 124b is hinged to the end of the second telescopic portion 123b away from the second tooth 121b, and the second clamping portion 124b is foldable and unfoldable relative to the second carrier 12b. Thus, the first clamping part 124a and the second clamping part 124b make it easy to clamp the electronic device from the edge; the first telescopic part 123a and the second telescopic part 123b make it easy to adjust the spacing between the first clamping part 124a and the second clamping part 124b according to the size of the electronic device, so that the carrier can carry electronic devices of different specifications.

[0065] In some embodiments, such as Figure 11 and Figure 12 As shown, both the first carrier 12a and the second carrier 12b are equipped with magnetic suction components (not shown). The magnetic suction components allow the first carrier 12a and the second carrier 12b to be folded together and then held in a more stable folded state due to mutual attraction, which facilitates storage.

[0066] In some embodiments, such as Figure 7 As shown, the storage bracket also includes a self-locking switch 6. The self-locking switch 6 is located within the storage space 50 and connected to the storage component 5. The self-locking switch 6 is used to lock and unlock the guide frame 11. When the supporting body 12 is fully inserted into the storage space 50, the self-locking switch 6 locks the guide frame 11, thus locking the supporting body 12 connected to the guide frame 11, thereby stably fixing the supporting body 12 within the storage space 50, facilitating storage and carrying by the user. When needed, the self-locking switch 6 releases the lock on the guide frame 11, thus releasing the lock on the supporting body 12 connected to the guide frame 11, allowing the supporting body 12 to move out of the storage space 50, facilitating user use.

[0067] In some embodiments, such as Figure 7 and Figure 14 As shown, the self-locking switch 6 includes a housing 61 and a clamping member 62. The housing 61 is disposed within the storage space 50. Specifically, the outer wall of the housing 61 is provided with a first snap-fit ​​structure 614, and the inner wall of the storage member 5 is provided with a second snap-fit ​​structure 53 (e.g., ...). Figure 7As shown), these two snap-fit ​​structures interlock, thus fixing the box 61 within the storage space 50. It can be understood that when the supporting body 12 moves with the guide frame 11 and is completely within the storage space 50, the guide frame 11 is closer to the bottom wall surface 51 of the storage component 5 than the storage opening 501 of the storage component 5. Therefore, as... Figure 7 The second snap-fit ​​structure 53 shown is specifically disposed on the bottom wall surface 51 of the storage component 5, so that the box body 61 is snap-fitted and fixed to the bottom wall surface 51 of the storage component 5. Of course, the second snap-fit ​​structure can also be disposed on the side wall surface of the storage component 5, so that the box body 61 can be snap-fitted and fixed to the side wall surface of the storage space 50.

[0068] like Figure 14 and Figure 15 As shown, a mounting space 610 with a second opening 6101 is formed inside the housing 61. A clamping member 62 passes through the second opening 6101 and extends into the mounting space 610. Two clamping arms 621 of the clamping member 62 abut against the edge of the second opening 6101, forming a first angle for clamping the guide frame 11 and a second angle for releasing the guide frame 11. Specifically, a connecting block 622 connects the two clamping arms 621, which drives the two clamping arms 621 into the mounting space 610. To prevent the connecting block 622 from detaching from the mounting space 610, the size of the second opening 6101 can be controlled, or a limiting structure can be provided within the mounting space 610. Typically, the connecting block 622 and the two clamping arms 621 are integrally injection molded, and the connection points between each clamping arm 621 and the connecting block 622 are deformable, allowing the two clamping arms 621 to form different angles against the edge of the second opening 6101. It is understandable that, in order to clamp and release, the angle between the two clamping arms 621 in the first angle state is smaller than the angle between the two clamping arms 621 in the second angle state.

[0069] like Figure 7 and Figure 15 As shown, when the guide frame 11 extends between the two clamping arms 621 and abuts against the connecting block 622, the supporting body 12 is fully inserted into the storage space 50. Since the two clamping arms 621 abut against the edge of the second opening 6101, forming a first angle, the guide frame 11 is clamped, thus securing and fixing the guide frame 11, and the supporting body 12 is fixed within the storage space 50. When the two clamping arms 621 form a second angle, the guide frame 11 is released, and the supporting body 12 connected to the guide frame 11 can move out of the storage space 50.

[0070] In some embodiments, such as Figure 16 As shown, the self-locking switch 6 also includes a rocker arm 63. One end of the rocker arm 63 is rotatably connected to the connecting block 622, and the other end is provided with a protrusion 631. The housing 61 is provided with a shaped groove 611 penetrating the side wall of the housing 61. Figure 7 , Figure 15 and Figure 16 As shown, when the protrusion 631 of the rocker arm 63 is inserted into the irregular groove 611, the connecting block 622 connected to the rocker arm 63 causes the two clamping arms 621 to gradually extend into the second opening 6101. The two clamping arms 621 abut against the edge of the second opening 6101, making the included angle between the two clamping arms 621 smaller until a first included angle is formed, thus clamping the guide frame 11. At this time, the guide frame 11 is fixed in the storage space 50, and the supporting body 12 is fixed in the storage space 50. When the protrusion 631 of the rocker arm 63 disengages from the irregular groove 611, the connecting block 622 connected to the rocker arm 63 causes the two clamping arms 621 to gradually withdraw from the second opening 6101, making the included angle between the two clamping arms 621 gradually larger until a second included angle is formed, thus releasing the guide frame 11. At this time, the guide frame 11 can move within the storage space 50, and the supporting body 12 can be pulled out of the outside of the storage component 5 by the user.

[0071] In some embodiments, such as Figure 15 and Figure 16 As shown, the self-locking switch 6 also includes a second spring 64. One end of the second spring 64 abuts against the inner wall surface of the housing 61 away from the second opening 6101, and the other end abuts against the connecting block 622. It can be understood that in order for the second spring 64 to move along the first direction b (as shown in the diagram), Figure 7 As shown, the box 61 is compressed, and a positioning post 612 is provided on the inner wall surface of the box 61 away from the second opening 6101. The positioning post 612 extends along the first direction b, and one end of the second spring 64 is sleeved on the positioning post 612. The connecting block 622 has a receiving groove 613 formed at one end away from the second opening 6101 for the second spring 64 to extend into, and the other end of the second spring 64 extends into the receiving groove 613 and abuts against the connecting block 622.

[0072] like Figure 7 , Figures 14-16 As shown, the overall movement process of the self-locking switch 6, guide frame 11, and supporting body 12 is as follows:

[0073] When storage is required, the user pushes the supporting body 12, which is outside the storage space 50, into the storage space 50. The guide frame 11 moves along the first direction b with the supporting body 12 and gradually extends between the two clamping arms 621 of the self-locking switch 6 until it abuts against the connecting block 622 between the two clamping arms 621. The connecting block 622 compresses the second spring 64 and gradually approaches the positioning post 612. At the same time, the rocker arm 63 gradually approaches the irregular groove 611 and swings, causing the protrusion 631 of the rocker arm 63 to extend into the irregular groove 611. Then, the user releases the supporting body 12, and the protrusion 631 of the rocker arm 63 is locked into the irregular groove 611 and fixed. At this time, the two clamping arms 621 form a first included angle and clamp the guide frame 11.

[0074] When needed, the user pushes the supporting body 12 within the storage space 50. The guide frame 11 moves along the first direction with the supporting body 12, causing the connecting block 622 to also move along the first direction. The rocker arm 63 then swings, and its protrusion 631 moves within the irregular groove 611, eventually disengaging from the groove 611 along its extension direction. Then, the connecting block 622 moves towards the second opening 6101, causing the two clamping arms 621 to gradually withdraw from the second opening 6101 until a second angle is formed, releasing the guide frame 11. Due to the elastic force of the second spring 64, the guide frame 11 is ejected a first preset distance, and the supporting body 12 extends out of the storage opening 501 (e.g., ...). Figure 6 (As shown) First preset length. This first preset extension length allows the user's fingers to extend from the storage opening 501 (as shown). Figure 6 Pinch the outer side of the support body 12 (as shown) to pull out the support body 12.

[0075] As can be seen from the above, due to the arrangement of the second spring 64, when the guide frame 11 disengages from the two clamping arms 621, the guide frame 11 and the supporting body 12 are ejected a preset distance. Combined with... Figure 8 Due to the first spring 13, when the guide frame 11 disengages from the two clamping arms 621, the moment the plug 14 leaves the bottom wall surface 51, the compressed first spring 13 has elastic force and pushes the guide frame 11 away from the bottom wall surface 51, that is, the guide frame 11 is ejected a second preset distance, and then the supporting body 12 extends out of the storage opening 501 (as shown). Figure 6 (As shown) the second preset length. Therefore, the total preset length of the support body 12 is the sum of the first preset length and the second preset length. That is, the addition of the first spring 13 makes it easier for the user to pinch or hold the support body 12, thereby pulling out the support body 12.

[0076] In some embodiments, such as Figure 17 and Figure 18 As shown, the bracket also includes a shock-absorbing component 4. The shock-absorbing component 4 is disposed within the cavity 20 of the support component 2, forming a concealed design. This means that the user cannot observe the presence of the shock-absorbing component from the outside during use, thus reducing interference with the user's use of the floor bracket. Alternatively, the shock-absorbing component 4 can be disposed outside the cavity 20 of the support component 2, forming an exposed design, which can achieve the same purpose of absorbing vibration.

[0077] like Figure 17 and Figure 18As shown, since the support component 2, the load-bearing component 1, and the base 3 are connected as a whole, the vibration absorbed by the damping assembly includes the vibrations of the support component 2, the load-bearing component 1, and the base 3; when the load-bearing component 1 holds electronic equipment, the vibration absorbed by the support component 2 also includes the vibration of the electronic equipment. The damping component 4 absorbs vibration in the following ways, including but not limited to: First, the damping component 4 moves within the cavity 20, overcoming air resistance and thus consuming kinetic energy to absorb vibration. Second, the damping component 4 converts the kinetic energy of the support component 2, the load-bearing component 1, and the base 3 into elastic potential energy, utilizing air resistance to gradually decay the elastic potential energy, thereby absorbing vibration. Third, the damping component 4 moves within the cavity 20, cutting magnetic lines of force during its movement to generate electrical energy, thus consuming kinetic energy and absorbing vibration.

[0078] This invention provides a shock-absorbing component within the support assembly. When a user touches the electronic device and causes vibration, the vibration is transmitted through the load-bearing assembly to the support assembly. Because the support assembly contains the shock-absorbing component, the vibration is absorbed, reducing or eliminating the vibration of the support assembly and the entire floor stand, thus improving the user experience. Furthermore, since the shock-absorbing component is located within the support assembly, it does not affect the aesthetic appearance of the floor stand and protects the shock-absorbing component from damage.

[0079] In some embodiments, such as Figure 18 and Figure 19 As shown, the shock-absorbing component 4 includes a first elastic element 41 and a counterweight 42. The first elastic element 41 can be any one of a spring, a flexible sheet, a rubber pad, or an air cushion. Figure 17 As shown, one end of the first elastic element 41 is connected to the support component 2, so the kinetic energy of the support component 2, the load-bearing component 1 connected to the support component 2, and the base 3 can be transferred to the first elastic element 41. The counterweight 42 is connected to the other end of the first elastic element 41, so the counterweight 42 can move with the first elastic element 41. Compared with the shock-absorbing component 4 with only the first elastic element 41, the overall weight of the shock-absorbing component 4 with the counterweight 42 is greatly increased, so the shock-absorbing component 4 can absorb greater vibrations.

[0080] In this embodiment of the invention, the kinetic energy of the support assembly, the load-bearing assembly connected to the support assembly, and the base is transferred to the counterweight via a first elastic element. The counterweight moves, consuming kinetic energy by overcoming air resistance; simultaneously, it compresses the first elastic element, generating elastic potential energy. During its compression and recovery processes, the first elastic element overcomes air resistance and consumes kinetic energy. Thus, the combined action of the first elastic element and the counterweight absorbs vibration.

[0081] In some embodiments, such as Figure 18 and Figure 19 As shown, the shock-absorbing component 4 also includes a second elastic element 43. The first elastic element 41, the counterweight 42, and the second elastic element 43 are sequentially arranged along the length direction a of the support component 2. One end of the second elastic element 43 is connected to the end of the mounting block furthest from the first elastic element 41, and the other end is connected to the support component 2. That is, one end of the counterweight 42 is connected to the first elastic element 41, and the other end of the counterweight 42 is connected to the second elastic element 43. Figure 17 As shown, the kinetic energy of the support component 2, the load-bearing component 1 connected to the support component 2, and the base 3 is transferred to the counterweight 42, not only through the first elastic element 41 but also through the second elastic element 43. Compared to only having the first elastic element, this shock-absorbing component has a higher kinetic energy absorption speed, thereby effectively improving the shock absorption effect between landings.

[0082] Furthermore, this practical embodiment of the invention utilizes two elastic elements. Since both elements generate elastic potential energy, more kinetic energy can be consumed through compression deformation and recovery deformation. Because the first elastic element, the counterweight, and the second elastic element are sequentially arranged along the length direction 'a' of the support assembly, if the counterweight moves along length direction 'a', one spring is compressed while the other may be stretched. Thus, while one spring drives the counterweight to return to its original position, the other spring drives the counterweight to move. With the two springs alternately deforming and returning to their original positions, compared to only one spring deforming and returning to its original position, the number of movements of the counterweight per unit time can be increased by two times, thereby absorbing more vibration. In this way, the arrangement of these two elastic elements improves the vibration absorption effect of the shock-absorbing assembly, allowing users to quickly stop the vibration of electronic devices, further enhancing the user experience of the floor stand.

[0083] In some embodiments, such as Figure 18 and Figure 19 As shown, along a direction perpendicular to the length direction a, there is a gap between the outer wall of the counterweight 42 and the inner wall of the cavity 20, allowing the counterweight 42 to swing around the length direction a within the cavity 20. The counterweight 42 is connected to a first elastic element 41 and a second elastic element 43 along the length direction a. Therefore, the counterweight 42 can generate movement along the length direction a by compressing or stretching the first elastic element 41 and the second elastic element 43. In this way, the counterweight can move in all 360° directions within the cavity, meaning the counterweight can absorb vibrations from the load-bearing assembly, support assembly, and base in all directions.

[0084] In some embodiments, such as Figure 18 and Figure 19 As shown, both the first elastic element 41 and the second elastic element 43 are springs, suitable for placement in such a configuration. Figure 2Within the elongated cavity 20 shown, with the two springs kept compressed, even slight movement of the counterweight 42 will cause the two springs to rebound, thus making the movement of the counterweight 42 more violent. Compared to when both springs are in their original state (i.e., without deformation) or both are in a stretched state, the counterweight in this embodiment of the invention generates greater kinetic energy through the two springs in a compressed state, thereby better absorbing vibration.

[0085] In some embodiments, such as Figure 18 and Figure 19 As shown, both the first elastic element 41 and the second elastic element 43 are conical springs extending along the length direction a. The top end of the conical spring is connected to the counterweight 42, and the bottom end is connected to the support assembly 2. The top end of the conical spring can be understood as the end with a smaller cross-section perpendicular to the length direction a; the bottom end of the conical spring can be understood as the end with a larger cross-section perpendicular to the length direction a. The conical spring design provides a larger gap perpendicular to the length direction a for the counterweight, allowing the counterweight to generate a greater amplitude of sway, thus absorbing greater vibration.

[0086] In some embodiments, such as Figure 18 and Figure 19 As shown, the counterweight 42 is a columnar structure extending along the length direction a. At both ends of the columnar structure along the length direction a, a first stepped surface 421 and a second stepped surface 422 are respectively formed. The first elastic element 41 and the second elastic element 43 abut against the first stepped surface 421 and the second stepped surface 422, so that the first elastic element 41 and the second elastic element 43 can maintain a compressed state. Specifically, the first stepped surface 421 and the second stepped surface 422 are both planes perpendicular to the length direction a. The formation of these first and second stepped surfaces ensures that the cross-sectional area perpendicular to the length direction a at both ends of the counterweight is smaller than the cross-sectional area of ​​the middle part of the counterweight. Therefore, when the first and second elastic elements are fitted onto the two ends of the counterweight, they can abut against the first and second stepped surfaces respectively, maintaining a compressed state.

[0087] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.
