Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of office furniture, in particular to the technical field of a self-limiting table support structure. Background Art

[0002] With the diversification of modern office environments, large desks are becoming increasingly popular due to their spacious workspace, especially for senior executives who require ample desk space. However, traditional long, long desks typically feature fixed ends, relying primarily on support structures at both ends to maintain stability and structural integrity.

[0003] However, this design has some limitations and issues in practical use. Firstly, there are issues with space and installation. To ensure the stability of large tabletops, especially those over 3 meters wide, floor-standing sideboards are installed on both sides. This creates a closed-off space and a poor user experience. Furthermore, this approach is relatively inflexible during installation and cleaning.

[0004] In terms of performance, the extra-wide desktop results in a lack of upward support near the middle, resulting in insufficient stability. While solving this problem by moving the side cabinets inward would lose the spaciousness of the extra-wide desk. Utility Model Content

[0005] In summary, the present invention addresses the deficiencies of the prior art and proposes a self-limiting tabletop support structure, which aims to provide stable tabletop stability while improving flexibility and practicality.

[0006] In order to achieve the above purpose, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0007] A self-limiting tabletop support structure includes a side cabinet fixedly connected to one end of the tabletop and a support frame supporting the other end of the tabletop;

[0008] The support frame includes a horizontal plate connected to the bottom of the table, a limiting plate vertically arranged on the outer side of the horizontal plate, and a supporting plate arranged on the inner side of the limiting plate and supporting the horizontal plate;

[0009] It also includes a self-limiting cabinet fixed off the ground on the outside of the limiting plate.

[0010] Compared with the existing technology, the self-limiting table top support structure in this case stabilizes one end of the table top with a traditional side cabinet, and then sets a relatively flexible support frame at the other end, and uses a support plate to support the cross plate, so that the cross plate with a relatively large contact area can transmit sufficient upward supporting force to the table top, thereby improving the stability of the extra-wide table top. At the same time, a limit plate is set on the outside and the self-limiting cabinet is fixed off the ground. The self-limiting cabinet uses its own weight to provide support to the table top based on the principle of leverage, while improving the space utilization effect.

[0011] In some embodiments, the lower end of the limiting plate is flush with the lower end of the self-limiting cabinet.

[0012] In a preferred embodiment, the upper end of the limiting plate is not lower than the horizontal plate.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment, the front-to-back width of the limiting plate is the same as the front-to-back width of the self-limiting cabinet.

[0014] In a preferred embodiment, it also includes fixing bolts connecting the self-limiting cabinet, the limiting plate, and the support plate.

[0015] In some embodiments, the front-to-back widths of the support plate and the cross plate are the same and no greater than the front-to-back width of the table top.

[0016] In a preferred embodiment, a bottom support is further included which spans the bottom of the self-limiting cabinet and the bottom of the side cabinet.

[0017] In some embodiments, the bottom support is a stainless steel support. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0023] The following examples further illustrate the features of the present invention and other related features to facilitate understanding by those skilled in the art:

[0024] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 In this case, a self-limiting tabletop support structure is applied to an extra-wide office desk as shown in the figure. For example, the width of the office desk in this case is 3.2 meters. For the convenience of description, the terms up and down, front and back, left and right will be used in the figures and instructions. The front refers to the front of the office desk when it is in working condition, and the back refers to the opposite direction. The width of the office desk in this case refers to the left and right width and should not be limited to 3.2 meters. The main purpose is to illustrate that this is a tabletop support structure applied to extra-wide office desks.

[0025] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 4 、 Figure 5 In this case, a self-limiting table support structure includes a side cabinet 100 fixedly connected to one end of the table 1 and a support frame 200 supporting the table 1 at the other end of the table 1. Here, the table 1 refers to the panel exposed at the top and its bottom support. For the specific structure of the support frame 200, please refer to Figure 3 The support frame 200 includes a horizontal plate 210 connected horizontally to the bottom of the table 1 and a limiting plate 220 on the outside of the horizontal plate 210, that is, facing the outside of the desk.

[0026] Furthermore, a support plate 230 is provided on the inner side of the limit plate 220, that is, at the bottom of the horizontal plate 210. The support plate 230 is in contact with the ground and supports the table top 1 together with the side cabinet 100. At this time, the self-limiting cabinet 300 is fixed off the ground on the outer side of the limit plate 220.

[0027] In this way, after one end of the table top 1 is stabilized by the transmission side cabinet 100, a relatively flexible support frame 200 is set at the other end, and the support plate 230 and the lever force of the self-limiting cabinet 300 are used to support the cross plate 210, so that the cross plate 210 with a relatively large contact area can transmit sufficient upward supporting force to the table top 1, thereby improving the stability of the ultra-wide table top. At the same time, a limit plate 220 is set on the outside and the self-limiting cabinet 300 is fixed off the ground, thereby improving the space utilization effect. That is, in the off-ground state, the weight of the self-limiting cabinet 300 is used to provide support to the table top 1 based on the lever principle, thereby avoiding the feeling of space congestion when supported by traditional cabinets.

[0028] The support frame 200 has been optimally designed to balance spatial efficiency and stable support. In some embodiments, the lower end of the limit plate 220 is flush with the lower end of the self-limiting cabinet 300, visually integrating the cabinet 300 and the limit plate 220, thereby improving space utilization. In practical applications, the self-limiting cabinet 300 should be located near the entrance and exit of a desk, and a non-ground-lift design would restrict foot movement.

[0029] At the same time, the upper end of the limit plate 220 is not lower than the horizontal plate 210, that is, it can also provide the horizontal plate 210 with a shear force. The front and rear width of the limit plate 220 is the same as the front and rear width of the self-limiting cabinet 300.

[0030] To further ensure stability, in some embodiments, fixing bolts 10 are used to connect the self-limiting cabinet 300, the limiting plate 220, and the support plate 230. That is, the fixing bolts 10 can be connected from the side of the self-limiting cabinet 300 close to the limiting plate 220 to the limiting plate 220 and connected to the support plate 230. Of course, the connection can also be made by passing through the support plate 230.

[0031] Furthermore, the front-to-back widths of the support plate 230 and the cross plate 210 are the same and are no greater than the front-to-back width of the tabletop 1, specifically the front-to-back width of the panel of the tabletop 1. In practice, because the support plate 230 and the cross plate 210 are integrally supported, and the limit plate 220 is a large panel integrated with the self-limiting cabinet 300, the thickness can be selected. For example, the support plate 230 and the cross plate 210 can be 25 mm thick, while the limit plate 220 can be a slightly thinner 16 mm plate.

[0032] In addition to the two side limits, you can also set supports at the bottom. Figure 2 In some embodiments, a bottom support 400 is further included, spanning the bottoms of the self-limiting cabinet 300 and the side cabinet 100. The bottom support 400 can be made of stainless steel. Specifically, "spanning" does not mean completely penetrating; it can mean interfering support at least partially at the bottoms of the self-limiting cabinet 300 and the side cabinet 100, providing protection for the self-limiting cabinet 300 when it is off the ground. A decorative panel 500 can also be positioned between the bottom support 400 and the countertop 1. This design of the bottom support 400 ensures a more stable installation of the decorative panel 500.

[0033] As mentioned above, this case protects a self-limiting table support structure, and all technical solutions that are the same or similar to this case should be deemed to fall within the scope of protection of this case.
