Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of outdoor folding tables, and more specifically to a folding table and a bracket thereof. Background Art

[0002] As a piece of furniture that saves space, is easy to carry and store, folding tables are becoming more and more popular in modern homes and offices. In order to further reduce the volume of the folded table, there are folding tables with table tops that can be folded in half. For example

[0003] CN 117582070 A discloses an outdoor folding table, comprising a first table top, supporting legs and at least three connecting seats connected to the lower surface of the first table top; the connecting seat comprises a seat body and a connecting head hinged on the seat body, and the supporting legs are detachably connected to the connecting head; at least one or more connecting seats are connected to multiple supporting legs; the supporting legs are detachably connected; the first table top comprises multiple folding plates hinged to each other. However, in this solution, the folding table bracket needs to be spliced, which is inconvenient to use.

[0004] CN 219982370 U discloses a folding table. In the folded state, the bracket is located outside the foldable table board assembly instead of between the foldable table board assemblies, which affects the appearance of the folding table. For this reason, the present application is specially proposed. Summary of the invention

[0005] The utility model aims to solve one of the technical problems in the related art to a certain extent. To this end, the utility model proposes a folding table bracket, which is floatingly mounted on a longitudinal hinge shaft through a first corner support leg and a second corner support leg, and is used to offset the interference between the first corner support leg and the second corner support leg when the folding table board is folded in half, thereby achieving that the bracket is located between the foldable table board components in the folded state, thereby improving the aesthetics of the folding table.

[0006] The utility model also provides a folding table with the bracket.

[0007] The technical solution adopted by the utility model is: to provide a folding table bracket, which is used in conjunction with a folding table board, comprising:

[0008] A vertically arranged longitudinal articulation axis;

[0009] A first support leg and a second support leg, both of which are floatingly mounted on the longitudinal hinge axis and can rotate around the longitudinal hinge axis at a predetermined radius;

[0010] Among them, the longitudinal height of the first supporting leg and the second supporting leg is not lower than the longitudinal height of the longitudinal hinge axis, and the first supporting leg and the second supporting leg can both move from a first position to a second position along the axial direction of the longitudinal hinge axis. In the first position, the upper ends of the first supporting leg and the second supporting leg are both against the bottom surface of the unfolded folding table top.

[0011] After adopting the above structure, the first support leg and the second support leg can be unfolded and folded. In the unfolded state, the first support leg and the second support leg are both in the first position, and the combination of the two forms a T-shaped or X-shaped table leg support structure. When folded, the first support leg and the second support leg rotate and close around the longitudinal hinge axis. Since there is a certain interference between the bottom surface of the folding table board and the first support leg and the second support leg during the folding process of the folding table board. To this end, the utility model floats the first support leg and the second support leg on the longitudinal hinge axis. During the folding process of the folding table board, the first support leg and the second support leg move downward from the first position to the second position to offset the interference between the table board and the table leg support structure. This achieves that the bracket is located between the foldable table board components in the folded state, thereby improving the aesthetics of the folding table.

[0012] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the first supporting leg and the second supporting leg move from a first position to a second position in a direction away from the folding table top.

[0013] According to an embodiment of the present invention, an elastic member is provided on the longitudinal hinge shaft, and the elastic member has an elastic tendency to keep the first supporting leg and / or the second supporting leg in the first position.

[0014] According to an embodiment of the utility model, a spacer sleeve is provided on the longitudinal hinge shaft; the spacer sleeve is used for axially supporting the first supporting leg and the second supporting leg, thereby reducing the wear caused by relative rotation between the two legs.

[0015] According to one embodiment of the utility model, the longitudinal hinge axis is connected to the transverse hinge axis of the folding table top; the longitudinal hinge axis is directly or indirectly connected to the transverse hinge axis, and the combination of the two forms a T-shaped structure.

[0016] A folding table comprises a folding table top and any one of the above-mentioned folding table brackets.

[0017] According to one embodiment of the utility model, the folding table top includes a first table top, a second table top and a transverse hinge axis, and the edges of the first table top and the second table top that are close to each other are bent on the same side to form a first bent edge; the first bent edge is provided to limit the relative rotation angle between the first table top and the second table top, for example, the rotation angle is 180°, that is, the first table top and the second table top can only be unfolded or folded in one direction.

[0018] According to an embodiment of the utility model, the folding table top includes a first table top, a second table top and a transverse hinge axis, and the edges of the first table top and the second table top that are away from each other are bent on the same side to form a second bent edge.

[0019] According to an embodiment of the utility model, the first table board and / or the second table board is provided with a connecting ring adapted to the longitudinal hinge axis; the connecting ring and the longitudinal hinge axis form a hinge structure, so that the first table board and the second table board can be folded relative to each other.
