[0029] The following is combined with Figure 1-5 , the embodiments of the utility model are further described in detail.

[0030] A handrail 1, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3As shown, it includes a bracket 2 mounted on a dental chair, a handle 3, a lock 4 for locking a fixed portion 31 of the handle 3, an elastic member 5 arranged between the bracket 2 and the lock 4, a limiter 7 for limiting the rotation range of the handle 3, and a pressing member 8 for unlocking the lock 4. The fixed portion 31 of the handle 3 is provided with a clamping position 34 that cooperates with the lock 4. The side of the fixed portion 31 away from the clamping position 34 cooperates with the limiter 7 to limit the rotation range of the handle 3. A push rod 41 is provided on the lock 4, and one end of the push rod 41 passes through the fixed portion 31 and the limiter 7 in sequence and is fixedly connected to the press 8. A gap is provided between the end surface of the press 8 and the end surface of the limiter 7 to facilitate the movement of the press 8.

[0031] When the pressing member 8 is acted upon by an external force, the gap is reduced, the locking member 4 is separated from the locking position 34 of the fixing portion 31, the elastic member 5 is compressed, and the handle 3 rotates by a set amplitude under the action of its own weight. When resetting, the handle 3 is manually rotated in the opposite direction so that the locking member 4 is locked in the locking position 34 under the restoring force of the elastic member 5, and the pressing member 8 returns to the initial state under the action of the push rod 41.

[0032] The handle 3 is fixed in the initial position by the locking member 4 and the locking position 34 of the fixing part 31. When the handle 3 needs to be used, the pressing member 8 is pressed to drive the locking member 4 out of the locking position 34, and the handle 3 swings downward under the force of its own weight, and rotates to a set amplitude and is fixed under the limiting action of the limiting member 7. When the handle 3 needs to be restored to the initial state, the handle 3 is lifted and rotated, and the locking member 4 is automatically locked into the locking position 34 under the restoring force of the elastic member 5 to fix the handle 3. The handle 3 can realize precise angle rotation positioning and locking, is very convenient to use, has a simple structure, is compactly arranged, and reduces costs.

[0033] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 4 A limiting column 33 is provided on the side of the fixing portion 31 away from the locking position 34, and an arc-shaped limiting groove 71 is provided on the side of the limiting member 7 facing the fixing portion 31. The limiting column 33 is slidably arranged in the limiting groove 71, and the length of the limiting groove 71 is used to limit the swing amplitude of the handle 3, which can improve the control accuracy and make it more convenient to use. Among them, the limiting member 7 is set to a plastic structure to save costs.

[0034] The fixing portion 31 is provided with two latching positions 34 at intervals, and the locking member 4 is provided with two positioning posts 42 correspondingly. A positioning post 42 is clamped in each latching position 34 to improve the stability of the clamping connection.

[0035] In this embodiment, the fixing portion 31 is provided with a mounting groove, and the bottom of the mounting groove is provided with a clamping position 34 and an inner hole 311 for installing the push rod 41. Specifically, the bottom of the mounting groove of the fixing portion 31 is also provided with an iron ring 32, and the side of the iron ring 32 abuts against the side of the flange seat 61. When rotating, the side of the iron ring 32 rubs against the side of the flange seat 61 and the end face of the positioning column 42, which can reduce the loss and thus extend the service life. Among them, the iron ring 32 and the fixing portion 31 are injection molded. Among them, the iron ring 32 and the fixing portion 31 are jointly provided with two clamping positions 34, and the two clamping positions 34 are set as a hole-type structure.

[0036] The handrail 1 also includes a flange 6, which includes a flange seat 61 and a connecting shaft 62. The flange seat 61 is fixed in the installation groove, one end of the connecting shaft 62 is fixedly connected to the flange seat 61, and the other end of the connecting shaft 62 passes through the inner hole 311, and the stopper 7 is threadedly connected to the nut 64 to fix the flange seat 61 and the stopper 7. A through slot is provided inside the flange seat 61 and the connecting shaft 62, and the push rod 41 passes through the through slot and is connected to the pressing member 8. A movable slot is provided on the side of the flange 6 away from the connecting shaft 62, and the ends of the elastic member 5 and the locking member 4 are located in the movable slot, which has a compact structure and saves space and cost. The bracket 2 is screwed to the flange seat 61 to fix the entire handrail 1. A through hole is provided in the flange 6 corresponding to the positioning column 42, and the positioning column 42 passes through the through hole to facilitate the fixing of the handle 3. The inner side of the outermost pressing member 8 will not contact the surface of the handle 3, and can be ejected together with the push rod 41, making it more convenient to press.

[0037] For details, please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 5 The limiting member 7 is set as a cylindrical structure, and a gasket 72 is arranged inside the limiting member 7 on the side away from the limiting groove 71. The pressing member 8 is movably arranged in the limiting member 7, and the end surface area of ​​the gasket 72 is smaller than the end surface area of ​​the pressing member 8, providing more sufficient space for the movement of the pressing member 8.

[0038] A gasket 72 is disposed inside the limiting member 7 on one side away from the limiting groove 71. The gasket 72 is disposed between the nut 64 and the limiting member 7 to increase the force bearing area and improve the stability of the fixing of the limiting member 7. The gasket 72 can increase the force bearing area of ​​the limiting member 7 to facilitate the movement of the push rod 41 and the lock member 4.

[0039] The outer peripheral side of the connecting shaft 62 is sleeved with a rubber ring 63, which is interference-connected in the inner hole 311. The rubber ring 63 can rub against the inner cavity of the inner hole 311 to play a damping role, so that the handrail 1 falls slowly, prevents accidental injury to personnel, and improves safety performance.

[0040] In this embodiment, the pressing member 8 is configured as a cover-shaped structure, a fixing hole 81 is provided at the center of the pressing member 8, and the end of the push rod 41 is clamped in the fixing hole 81, so that installation and removal are convenient.

[0041] In order to improve the stability of the connection between the push rod 41 and the pressing member 8, the push rod 41 is hollow inside, and the pressing member 8 is fixedly connected to the push rod 41 by a countersunk screw 82. One end of the countersunk screw 82 is clamped on the outside of the fixing hole 81, and the other end of the countersunk screw 82 passes through the fixing hole 81 and is threadedly connected to the inside of the push rod 41, so that the connection is more stable and the linkage efficiency of the pressing is improved. Of course, the other end of the countersunk screw 82 can also be directly fixed to the inside of the push rod 41 by interference fit.

[0042] The elastic member 5 is configured as a tower-shaped spring structure, and the end of the elastic member 5 with a larger end surface area is connected to the bracket 2. The pressure-bearing area can be increased so that the elastic deformation force is concentrated on the lock member 4, thereby improving the efficiency of resetting. Of course, other elastic structures can also be configured, and a spring structure is preferred in this solution.

[0043] When in use, the armrest 1 is put down. The positioning column 42 of the lock 4 is stuck in the two positions 34 of the iron ring 32 of the fixed part 31 (the iron ring 32 is embedded to prevent the plastic of the fixed part 31 from being worn). When the hand pushes the pressing part 8, the lock 4 is pushed at the same time, and the elastic part 5 (reset function) is squeezed. When the positioning columns 42 on both sides of the lock 4 completely withdraw from the two positions 34 on the iron ring 32, the handle 3 automatically rotates downward due to its own gravity. The rotation range of the handle 3 is limited by the limiting member 7. The limiting groove 71 is designed, and the fixing part 31 is provided with a limiting column 33. The rotation range of the handle 3 is limited by the length of the limiting groove 71, so as to achieve the purpose of putting down the armrest 1. The rubber ring 63 is installed on the connecting shaft 62. The rubber ring 63 rubs against the inner cavity of the inner hole 311 to play a damping role, so that the handle 3 falls slowly to prevent accidental injury to people.

[0044] Reset the armrest 1: Lift the handle 3 directly by hand and turn it counterclockwise. When the two positioning columns 42 of the lock 4 encounter the two locking positions 34 of the handle 3, it will be reset under the action of the elastic member 5. The two positioning columns 42 will immediately lock into the corresponding locking positions 34, and immediately lock the handle 3 to achieve a fixing effect.

[0045] The embodiments of this specific implementation are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the present application. The same components are represented by the same figure marks. Therefore, any equivalent changes made based on the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
