Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of television bracket technology, specifically to a top-mounted television bracket and its control method. Background Technology

[0002] As a device that can make full use of ceiling space, ceiling-mounted TV brackets are widely used in small living rooms, bedrooms and other scenarios. Their core value lies in the fact that when the TV is not in use, the device can be stored under the ceiling, reducing the occupation of indoor space and improving the cleanliness and aesthetics of the environment. Therefore, the demand for ease of operation and structural stability is becoming increasingly prominent.

[0003] In the prior art, patent CN222849000U discloses a ceiling-mounted TV bracket, belonging to the field of display bracket technology. The bracket includes a ceiling plate installed on the ceiling, a bracket for mounting the display device (rotatably connected to the ceiling plate), and force-applying components at both ends that are rotatably connected to the ceiling plate and the bracket, respectively; the bracket can be opened and closed by manually operating the force-applying components to drive the bracket to rotate relative to the ceiling plate.

[0004] However, the existing structure described above has significant drawbacks and shortcomings, as follows: The structure relies on manual force application, making it difficult to operate: The unfolding and closing of the structure depends entirely on the user to manually drive the force application component. However, display devices such as televisions are usually quite heavy (especially large-screen televisions). During manual lifting or pushing and pulling, the user must overcome the weight of the device, which is laborious and can easily cause the device to shake due to uneven force application, posing a safety hazard.

[0005] Poor adaptability for high-altitude installation: The ceiling bracket is installed below the ceiling, and the height is usually beyond the convenient operation range of most users. For shorter people or the elderly, it is difficult to reach the force-applying parts for operation, which limits its applicability. In addition, there is no buffer design for pulling force during storage. When the TV is heavy, the force-applying parts or connecting parts may be worn due to excessive instantaneous force, which shortens the service life.

[0006] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, there is an urgent need for a top-mounted TV bracket that can achieve automated operation, improve structural stability and applicability, so as to solve the problems of difficult manual operation, low adaptability to high places, and insufficient stability. Therefore, this invention proposes a top-mounted TV bracket and its control method. Summary of the Invention

[0007] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a top-mounted TV bracket and its control method.

[0008] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a top-mounted TV bracket, comprising a top frame, a bracket, and a positioning component, and further comprising a driving component and a lifting component; A limiting plate is fixedly installed at the front end of the top frame, and second limiting frames are provided on both sides of the limiting plate.

The multiple pulley bodies are used to support the pull rope. The second motor is fixed on one side of the top frame. The two ends of the winding shaft are provided with rotating shafts that are inserted into the top frame. The rotating shafts are rotatably connected to the top frame through bearings. The output end of the second motor is provided with a motor shaft that passes through the top frame and is connected to the rotating shaft.

[0011] To improve the service life of the pull rope, the present invention includes the following improvements: the limiting component includes a limiting shaft, a limiting ring, and two third limiting frames. The limiting ring is penetrated by the limiting shaft and is rotatably connected to the limiting shaft via a bearing. The bottom end of the pull rope is connected to the limiting ring. Both third limiting frames are fixed to the rear end of the bracket by screws. The inner side of the third limiting frame is provided with a positioning groove. A buffer ring is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the positioning groove. Both ends of the limiting shaft are inserted into the interior of the positioning groove and penetrate the buffer ring. The outer wall of the limiting shaft is tightly fitted with the inner wall of the buffer ring.

[0012] To facilitate positioning of the bracket after unfolding, the present invention includes the following improvements: the magnetic suction assembly includes a magnetic suction controller and two magnetic suction bases.

The cross-section of the drive block is rectangular. A threaded groove is provided inside the drive block. A drive shaft that passes through the electromagnetic brake is provided at the output end of the first motor. A lead screw that is inserted into the threaded groove is provided at the end of the drive shaft away from the first motor and is threadedly connected to the drive block. The front end of the drive block is inserted into the sliding groove and slidably connected to the sliding groove. A drive rod that is inserted into the limiting groove and slidably connected to the limiting groove is provided at the front end of the drive block. The drive rod is a cylindrical structure.

[0014] A method for controlling a top-mounted TV bracket includes the following steps: Step 1: Installation and power-on; The top bracket is fixed to the ceiling with bolts, and the TV is fixed to the front of the positioning bracket and mounting bracket with screws. The power cords of the TV, the first motor, the electromagnetic brake, the magnetic controller, and the second motor are passed through the wiring holes in the wiring slot and connected to the wiring socket at the front of the placement slot to power on each electrical device. At this time, the bracket is initially parallel to the top bracket, the TV is in the storage state, and the first motor is located inside the placement slot. Step 2: Switch to usage mode; The second motor is started by wireless remote control, which drives the winding shaft to rotate and unwinds the pull rope through the pulley frame. At the same time, the magnetic controller is activated, which energizes the electromagnet to generate magnetic force. As the pull rope is unwound, the bracket rotates around the central axis of the second positioning shaft under the action of gravity until the bracket is in a vertical position. At this time, the positioning plates on both sides of the bracket come into contact with the electromagnet and are attracted and fixed by magnetic attraction, thus completing the switch of the use state.

[0015] Furthermore, the present invention includes the following operational steps: Step 3: Adjust the tilt angle of the TV; After step 2 is completed, the first motor is started by wireless remote control, which drives the lead screw to rotate, causing the drive block to slide with the drive rod in the limit groove, thereby driving the positioning frame to rotate around the central axis of the first positioning shaft to the specified angle; after the angle is adjusted, the electromagnetic brake is activated to lock the drive shaft and fix the angle of the positioning frame. Step 4: Switch to storage mode; The electromagnet is de-energized via wireless remote control, releasing the magnetic attraction between the positioning plate and the electromagnet; the second motor is started, driving the winding shaft to wind the pull rope, which pulls the bracket to rotate in the opposite direction around the central axis of the second positioning shaft until the bracket and the top frame are parallel again; during the winding process, the buffer ring buffers the starting pull force at the limit ring, completing the switching of the storage state.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a top-mounted TV bracket and its control method, which has the following beneficial effects: Achieve fully automated operation and solve the pain point of "manual force application": The lifting assembly, consisting of a second motor, a winding shaft, and a pull rope, enables the automatic switching of the bracket from storage to use. The drive assembly (first motor, lead screw, drive block, etc.) enables the electric adjustment of the TV's tilt angle, eliminating the need for manual lifting or pushing, making it particularly suitable for high-altitude installation scenarios and solving the problems of "high difficulty in manual operation and low applicability" in existing technologies.

[0017] High structural stability and reliable load-bearing capacity: The magnetic assembly (magnetic controller, magnetic base, electromagnet, positioning plate) further secures the unfolded bracket by adsorption between the electromagnet and the iron positioning plate, preventing wobbling; the electromagnetic brake can lock the drive shaft immediately to ensure that the positioning frame does not shift after the angle is adjusted.

[0018] Detailed design extends component lifespan and reduces wear and tear: The pull rope is unwound or wound up under the support of the pulley body on the pulley frame, reducing friction and wear; the buffer ring in the limit assembly buffers the starting pull force when the pull rope is wound up, preventing the pull rope from breaking; the drive block has a rectangular cross-section and slides into the slot, and the drive rod has a cylindrical structure and slides into the limit slot, ensuring that the drive process is smooth and reducing component wear; the combination of wiring slots, wiring holes and wiring sockets makes the wiring standardized and orderly, reducing the risk of circuit failure.

The limiting component is provided with a buffer structure (the included angle between the bottom end of the pull rope 30 and the rear end of the bracket 2 is 60°-70°). Two positioning plates 37 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the top of the bracket 2, and a magnetic suction component is provided on the limiting plate 18 to limit the positioning plate 37. The drive assembly drives the positioning frame 3 to rotate around the central axis of the first positioning shaft 13 by a specified angle. A limiting block 15 is provided on the inner side of the top of the positioning frame 3. When the TV is stored, the limiting block 15 will contact the front end of the bracket 2, so that the positioning frame 3 and the bracket 2 remain parallel.

[0022] The limiting assembly includes a limiting shaft 33, a limiting ring 34, and two third limiting frames 32. The limiting ring 34 is penetrated by the limiting shaft 33 and is rotatably connected to the limiting shaft 33 via a bearing. The bottom end of the pull rope 30 is connected to the limiting ring 34. The two third limiting frames 32 are fixed to the rear end of the bracket 2 by screws. The inner side of the third limiting frame 32 is provided with a positioning groove 36. A buffer ring 35 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the positioning groove 36. Both ends of the limiting shaft 33 are inserted into the interior of the positioning groove 36 and penetrate the buffer ring 35. The outer wall of the limiting shaft 33 is tightly fitted with the inner wall of the buffer ring 35.

[0023] The magnetic suction assembly includes a magnetic suction controller 19 and two magnetic suction bases 20. The two magnetic suction bases 20 are fixed to the inner side of the limiting plate 18, and the magnetic suction controller 19 is fixed to the outer side of the limiting plate 18. An electromagnet 21 is embedded inside the magnetic suction base 20. The magnetic suction controller 19 and the electromagnet 21 are connected by a wire passing through the limiting plate 18. Two positioning plates 37 are welded to both sides of the bracket 2, and the positioning plates 37 are made of iron.

[0024] A method for controlling a top-mounted TV bracket includes the following steps: Step 1: Installation and power-on; The limiting plate 18 and the top frame 1 are an integrated structure. The bracket 2 is provided with a wiring groove 17, and the wiring groove 17 is provided with multiple wiring holes 16. The limiting plate 18 is also provided with wiring holes 16. The front end of the placement groove 31 is fixedly provided with a wiring socket 24.

[0025] The top bracket 1 is fixed to the ceiling with bolts, and the TV is fixed to the positioning bracket 3 and the front end of the mounting bracket with screws. The power cords of the TV, the first motor 4, the electromagnetic brake, the magnetic controller 19, and the second motor 25 are respectively passed through the wiring holes 16 in the wiring groove 17 and connected to the wiring socket 24 at the front end of the placement groove 31 to power on each electrical device. At this time, the bracket 2 is initially parallel to the top bracket 1, the TV is in the storage state, and the first motor 4 is located inside the placement groove 31. Step 2: Switch to usage mode; Multiple pulley frames 28 are fixedly installed inside the placement slot 31. Each pulley frame 28 has a pulley body 29. The multiple pulley bodies 29 are used to support the pull rope 30. The second motor 25 is fixed on one side of the top frame 1. Both ends of the winding shaft 27 are provided with rotating shafts 26 that are inserted into the top frame 1. The rotating shafts 26 are rotatably connected to the top frame 1 through bearings. The output end of the second motor 25 is provided with a motor shaft that passes through the top frame 1 and is connected to the rotating shaft 26.

[0026] The second motor 25 is started by wireless remote control, which drives the winding shaft 27 to rotate and unwinds the pull rope 30 supported by the pulley frame 28. At the same time, the magnetic controller 19 is started, which energizes the electromagnet 21 to generate magnetic force. As the pull rope 30 is unwound, the bracket 2 rotates around the central axis of the second positioning shaft 22 under the action of gravity until the bracket 2 is in a vertical state. At this time, the positioning plates 37 on both sides of the bracket 2 come into contact with the electromagnet 21 and are attracted and fixed by magnetic attraction, thus completing the switching of the use state.

[0027] Step 3: Adjust the tilt angle of the TV; The positioning frame 3 has a vertically arranged slide groove 10 at its rear end, an opening 11 at the bottom of the slide groove 10, and two limiting grooves 9 symmetrically arranged on the inner wall of the slide groove 10. The drive assembly includes a support frame 5, a first motor 4, and a drive block 7. The support frame 5 is fixed to the rear end of the bracket 2 and located at the bottom of the bracket 2. The first motor 4 is installed at the rear end of the support frame 5. An electromagnetic brake is provided inside the support frame 5. A slot 6 is provided at the bottom of the bracket 2. The drive block 7 is inserted into the slot 6 and slidably connected to the slot 6. The cross-section of the drive block 7 is rectangular. A threaded groove is provided inside the drive block 7. A drive shaft that passes through the electromagnetic brake is provided at the output end of the first motor 4. A lead screw 8 that is inserted into the threaded groove is provided at the end of the drive shaft away from the first motor 4. The lead screw 8 is threadedly connected to the drive block 7. The front end of the drive block 7 is inserted into the sliding groove 10 and slidably connected to the sliding groove 10. A drive rod 12 that is inserted into the limiting groove 9 and slidably connected to the limiting groove 9 is provided at the front end of the drive block 7. The drive rod 12 is a cylindrical structure.

[0028] After step 2 is completed, the first motor 4 is started by wireless remote control, which drives the lead screw 8 to rotate, so that the drive block 7 slides with the drive rod 12 in the limit groove 9, thereby driving the positioning frame 3 to rotate around the central axis of the first positioning shaft 13 to the specified angle; after the angle is adjusted, the electromagnetic brake is activated to lock the drive shaft and fix the angle of the positioning frame 3. Step 4: Switch to storage mode; The electromagnet 21 is de-energized via wireless remote control, releasing the magnetic attraction between the positioning plate 37 and the electromagnet 21; the second motor 25 is started, driving the winding shaft 27 to wind up the pull rope 30, and the pull rope 30 pulls the bracket 2 to rotate in the opposite direction around the central axis of the second positioning shaft 22 until the bracket 2 and the top frame 1 are parallel again; during the winding process, the buffer ring 35 buffers the starting pull force at the limit ring 34, completing the switching of the storage state.

[0029] Installation and power-on: The top bracket 1 is fixed to the ceiling with bolts to form an overall support base; the television is fixed to the positioning bracket 3 and the front end of the mounting brackets on both sides of the positioning bracket 3 with screws to achieve stable support for the television. The bracket 2 is initially parallel to the top bracket 1, at which point the television is in the storage state, and the first motor 4 is located inside the placement slot 31 below the top bracket 1.

[0030] To power all components, the power cords for the television, the first motor 4, the electromagnetic brake, the magnetic controller 19, and the second motor 25 are passed through the wiring holes 16 in the wiring groove 17 on the bracket 2 and connected to the wiring socket 24 at the front end of the placement groove 31 (similar to the connection between a plug and a socket). The wiring socket 24 is then connected to the indoor circuit. At the same time, the wiring holes 16 on the limiting plate 18 (which is an integrated structure with the top frame 1) can also assist in wiring to ensure that all electrical equipment is powered on and ready.

[0031] Switch to usage mode: The second motor 25 (fixed to one side of the top frame 1) is started by a wireless remote control. The output end of the second motor 25 drives the take-up shaft 27 to rotate through the motor shaft (the rotating shafts 26 at both ends of the take-up shaft 27 are inserted into the top frame 1 and connected by bearings to ensure rotational stability). When the take-up shaft 27 rotates, the pull rope 30 is smoothly unwound under the support of the pulley bodies 29 on the multiple pulley frames 28 inside the placement groove 31, reducing frictional loss.

[0032] Simultaneously, the magnetic controller 19 (fixed to the outside of the limiting plate 18) is activated. The magnetic controller 19 energizes the electromagnet 21 inside the magnetic base 20 (fixed to the inside of the limiting plate 18) through the wire passing through the limiting plate 18, generating magnetic force. As the pull rope 30 is unwound, the bracket 2 rotates around the second positioning shaft 22 at the top under the action of gravity (the two ends of the second positioning shaft 22 are inserted into the second limiting frames 23 on both sides of the limiting plate 18 and connected by bearings to ensure smooth rotation) until the bracket 2 is in a vertical state. At this time, the iron positioning plates 37 welded on both sides of the bracket 2 come into contact with the electromagnet 21 and are firmly attracted by magnetic attraction, realizing the stable positioning of the bracket 2 after it is unfolded.

[0033] Adjust the TV tilt angle: After the bracket 2 is in a vertical position, if it is necessary to adjust the tilt angle of the TV, the first motor 4 (installed on the support frame 5 at the bottom of the rear end of the bracket 2) is started by wireless remote control. The output end of the first motor 4 drives the drive shaft through the electromagnetic brake (built into the support frame 5) to rotate, and the lead screw 8 at the end of the drive shaft rotates accordingly.

[0034] The lead screw 8 is connected to the drive block 7 (with a rectangular cross-section to ensure stable sliding) in the empty groove 6 at the bottom of the insertion bracket 2 by a thread. The rotation of the lead screw 8 drives the drive block 7 to slide in the empty groove 6. The cylindrical drive rod 12 at the front end of the drive block 7 is inserted into the limiting groove 9 of the vertical slide groove 10 at the rear end of the positioning frame 3. As the drive block 7 slides, it moves synchronously along the limiting groove 9 and the slide groove 10, thereby driving the positioning frame 3 to rotate around the first positioning shaft 13 at the bottom end (the two ends of the first positioning shaft 13 are inserted into the first limiting frame 14 at the bottom end of the bracket 2 and connected by bearings to ensure rotation accuracy).

[0035] When the positioning frame 3 drives the TV to rotate to the specified angle, the electromagnetic brake is activated to lock the drive shaft, and the position of the drive block 7 is fixed by mechanical braking, thereby locking the angle of the positioning frame 3 and ensuring a stable viewing angle.

[0036] Switch to storage mode: The electromagnet 21 is de-energized by wireless remote control, releasing the magnetic attraction between the positioning plate 37 and the electromagnet 21; the second motor 25 is restarted, driving the winding shaft 27 to rotate in the opposite direction to wind up the pull rope 30. The pull rope 30 pulls the limiting component at the rear end of the bracket 2 (the limiting ring 34 is sleeved on the limiting shaft 33 and is rotatably connected by a bearing, and the bottom end of the pull rope 30 is connected to the limiting ring 34), causing the bracket 2 to rotate in the opposite direction around the second positioning shaft 22.

[0037] During the winding process, the two ends of the limiting shaft 33 are inserted into the positioning grooves 36 inside the two third limiting frames 32 at the rear end of the bracket 2, and the outer wall of the limiting shaft 33 is tightly fitted with the buffer ring 35 of the inner wall of the positioning groove 36. The buffer ring 35 can buffer the starting pull force at the limiting ring 34 to prevent the pull rope 30 from breaking due to excessive instantaneous force. Until the bracket 2 and the top bracket 1 return to parallel, the TV returns to the storage state, completing the entire storage process.

[0038] The integrated design of the top frame 1 and the limiting plate 18 enhances the overall rigidity; the top of the bracket 2 is rotatably connected to the second limiting frame 23 on both sides of the limiting plate 18 through the second positioning shaft 22, and the bottom is rotatably connected to the first limiting frame 14 through the first positioning shaft 13. The double rotation fulcrum ensures that the bracket 2 and the positioning frame 3 rotate smoothly. The magnetic suction assembly further secures the extended bracket 2 by attracting the electromagnet 21 to the iron positioning plate 37, preventing it from shaking; the electromagnetic brake can lock the drive shaft immediately to ensure that the positioning frame 3 does not shift after the angle is adjusted.

[0039] Wireless remote control operation eliminates the need to touch the bracket 2, making it especially suitable for controlling equipment at heights; when stored, the bracket 2 is parallel to the top shelf 1, saving space and not affecting the aesthetics of the room, meeting the needs of small apartments.
