[0019] As a further configuration of the above solution, the width of the inner wall between the limiting notches 223 at opposite ends of the slide groove 111 is smaller than the diameter of the limiting notches 223 .
[0020] As a further configuration of the above scheme, an armrest portion 4 is further provided on the side panel 1, and the armrest portion 4 is opened along the front direction of the side panel 1 relative to the pedal 2. As shown in the figure, the armrest portion 4 is provided on the side panel 1 of this embodiment, and the armrest portion 4 is provided on the side where the pedal 2 is gradually upward, which can be convenient for the user to use it as an armrest when walking upward along the pedal 2, and the armrest portion 4 can also serve as a handle for the user to carry the step stool.

A notch groove 5 is also provided on the part of the side panel 1 in contact with the ground, and the notch groove 5 is provided between the support plate 3 and the bottom pedal 2.
[0022] As a further configuration of the above scheme, the rotating column 221 and the rotating sleeve 71 are respectively provided with an embedding groove 281 and an embedding block 711 for circumferential fixation, the locking sleeve 7 and the rotating column 221 are threadedly matched, and the end faces of the locking sleeve 7 and the rotating sleeve 71 that abut against each other are provided with anti-slip protrusions 78.
[0023] Embodiment: The step stool of the utility model is mainly used in daily life to solve the problem that children are short of height in daily life, so as to make it inconvenient to use some household washbasins, toilets, etc. The step stool of the utility model has multiple use prospects when in use, including being used as a stepping ladder for children to climb up. The setting of the multi-level pedals 2 makes it safer and more convenient for children to use. The setting of the armrests 4 allows children to hold on to their hands when climbing up, which is more secure for children with a relatively unstable center of gravity. In addition, the pedal 2 of the upper layer of the step stool of this embodiment is designed to flip and swing, which can be swung by active control when in use, so that the upper pedal 2 is flipped about 90°, and the upper pedal 2 is turned up as a backrest, which is used as a low stool for children to sit on, or for some relatively short uses, such as a toilet that does not require a very high step. At this time, The flipping of the pedal 2 can make it easier for children to use the utility model. In addition, in the use of the movable board 22 of the present embodiment, the design of the structure of the sliding column 222 with the slide groove 111 on one side and the rotating column 221 is adopted to realize the flipping adjustment of the movable board 22. On this basis, the present embodiment further improves the slide groove 111 and sets a limiting groove 223. When in use, the limiting groove 223 has a certain limiting effect on the sliding of the sliding column 222 relative to the slide groove 111, so that when it is in the use position, that is, at the two ends of the slide groove 111, based on the size design of the limiting groove 223 and the middle part of the slide groove 111, the movable board 22 has stable retention. During use, after the movable board 22 is flipped into place, it will not be flipped due to the user's moving, collision, and vibration during use when it is not actively flipped, thereby avoiding the problem of unstable stepping and falling caused by sudden flipping.
[0024] When in use, the user can flip the movable plate 22 along the extension direction of the slide groove 111 by pulling the side of the movable plate 22 relative to the slide column 222. Based on the size design of the limiting notch 223 and the middle part of the slide groove 111, there is a certain resistance when the slide column 222 is pulled away from the limiting notch 223, thereby limiting the slide column 222. In addition, based on the fact that the product of this utility model adopts a plastic material with a certain elasticity, there is a certain elastic expansion force between the two during use. When the external force increases, the resistance can no longer limit the position, so that it can slide smoothly.
[0025] In addition, a support plate 3 is provided between the side panels 1 of this embodiment, and the support plate 3 is used to improve the supporting strength between the side panels 1. The part of the side panel 1 in contact with the ground is also provided with a notch groove 5, and the notch groove 5 is located between the support plate 3 and the bottom pedal 2.
[0026] Furthermore, the rotating column 221 and the rotating sleeve 71 of this embodiment are respectively provided with an embedding groove 281 and an embedding block 711 for circumferential fixation, the locking sleeve 7 and the rotating column 221 are threadedly matched, and the end surfaces of the locking sleeve 7 and the rotating sleeve 71 that abut against each other are provided with anti-slip protrusions 78, and the locking sleeve 7 of the fixed plate 21 is directly threadedly connected to at least two fixed rods provided at its end, and the rotating column 221 at the movable plate 22 is based on its use function, in order to avoid the locking sleeve 7 and the rotating column 221 based on the use function. A rotating sleeve 71 is also provided to prevent loosening due to rotation. For example, the rotating column 221, the embedding groove 281 and the embedding block 711 provided on the rotating sleeve 71, and the anti-skid protrusion 78 structure between the locking sleeve 7 and the rotating sleeve 71. After installation, the rotation of the rotating column 221 will drive the rotating sleeve 71 to rotate circumferentially based on the embedding groove 281 and the embedding block 711, and the rotating sleeve 71 will drive the locking sleeve 7 to rotate circumferentially based on the anti-skid protrusion 78, thereby realizing the circumferential linkage rotation of the three, and the problem of loosening will not easily occur.
[0027] Obviously, those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications to the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Thus, if these modifications and variations of the present invention fall within the scope of the claims of the present invention and their equivalents, the present invention is also intended to include these modifications and variations.
