Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of brackets, in particular to a rotating bracket. Background Art

[0002] With the miniaturization of electronic products, the internal circuit boards, chips, and components are all very small. During disassembly and repair, it is often necessary to use imaging devices such as microscopes and thermal imagers to observe and photograph the solder joints to determine their condition. The maintenance desk often needs to hold many commonly used maintenance equipment and tools, so the space available for maintenance operations is relatively limited. Placing a conventional microscope on the desk would severely squeeze the maintenance space. Therefore, when repairing electronic products, the microscope used is usually fixed with a movable bracket, allowing it to be moved to another location after use to free up space at the workstation.

[0003] Considering the stability requirements of microscopes, a rotating stand is usually used instead of a folding and telescopic stand. The rotating stand is a device for mounting a microscope. When the microscope is in use, it can be moved to the workstation by rotating the stand. When not in use, the microscope can be moved to the side of the workstation to free up workspace.

[0004] In the prior art, a rotating stand typically consists of a fixed portion and a rotating arm. The microscope is mounted on one end of the rotating arm, and the fixed portion is fixed to one side of the workstation. During use, the user rotates the rotating arm to move the microscope to the workstation, aligning the microscope with the front and rear sides of the workstation. As the rotating arm rotates, the horizontal angle between the rotating arm and the front and rear sides of the workstation gradually decreases, while the horizontal angle between the microscope and the front and rear sides of the workstation remains unchanged. This causes the connection between the rotating arm and the microscope to move laterally toward the microscope, reducing the microscope's horizontal operating space and affecting operation. This is especially true when adjusting the microscope while observing, making it more susceptible to interference from the rotating arm.

[0005] Therefore, the existing technology has defects and deficiencies and needs further improvement and development. Utility Model Content

[0041] During the repair process of electronic products, a workstation is set up on the table for maintenance operations, known as the maintenance work area. With the miniaturization of electronic products, the internal circuit boards, chips, and components are becoming increasingly smaller. Disassembly and repair often require the use of imaging equipment such as microscopes and thermal imagers to observe and photograph details such as solder joints. The maintenance table is often filled with a variety of commonly used maintenance equipment and tools, resulting in relatively limited working space. Placing a conventional microscope directly on the table would significantly occupy the maintenance space. Therefore, maintenance personnel often use a movable stand to secure the microscope, allowing it to be easily removed after use, freeing up space at the workstation. Given the microscope's required stability, a rotating stand is often used rather than a folding or telescopic stand. A rotating stand is a device used to mount the microscope. When needed, the microscope can be rotated to move to the workstation. When not needed, the microscope can be moved to the side of the workstation, freeing up space in the maintenance area. However, when the existing rotating bracket is in use, as the rotating arm rotates, the horizontal angle between the rotating arm and the front and rear sides of the workstation gradually decreases, while the horizontal angle between the microscope and the front and rear sides of the workstation remains unchanged. As a result, the connection between the rotating arm and the microscope will approach the microscope from the side, reducing the horizontal operating space of the microscope and affecting the operation of the microscope.

[0042] In order to solve the above problems, the present invention proposes a rotating bracket 10 .

[0043] Please refer to Figures 1 to 2 The rotating bracket 10 includes a fixing portion 11 and a rotating arm 12. The fixing portion 11 is used to be fixed on the desktop 20, and is fixed to one side of the workstation for supporting the rotating arm 12. The rotating arm 12 is rotatably connected to the fixing portion 11, and a first connecting member 13 is provided at one end of the rotating arm 12 away from the fixing portion 11. The first connecting member 13 includes a fixing member 131 and a connecting arm 132. The fixing member 131 and the connecting arm 132 can be two parts fixedly connected together, or they can be integrally formed. The fixing member 131 is used to be fixed to the end of the rotating arm 12, so that the connecting arm 132 can be fixed to the end of the rotating arm 12. The connecting arm 132 is used to install an imaging device (such as a microscope) or a bracket of the imaging device, so that the imaging device or the bracket of the imaging device can be installed on the rotating bracket 10 through the connecting arm 132.

[0044] The desktop 20 has a workstation, which is a working area for operating the imaging device and also a working area for maintenance operations. The front and rear of the workstation can be understood as the front and rear sides of the desktop 20. The front of the workstation refers to the position where the user is facing the operating device; the rear of the workstation refers to the side of the workstation away from the user's operation, which is opposite to the front side of the workstation. When the first connecting member 13 is located at the workstation, the rotating arm 12 is tilted in the horizontal direction relative to the front and rear directions of the workstation, that is, the rotating arm 12 is set at an angle to the front and rear directions of the workstation. At this time, the connecting arm 132 extends in the horizontal direction along the front and rear directions of the workstation, so that the imaging device or its bracket mounted on the connecting arm 132 is misaligned with the rotating arm 12 in the vertical direction. The connection between the rotating arm 12 and the microscope is avoided, and the microscope is approached from the side, providing a more spacious operating space.

[0045] See also Figure 3 A rotating shaft 133 is provided at the end of the connecting arm 132 facing away from the fixing member 131. The rotating shaft 133 extends toward the desktop 20 and is movably connected to the imaging device or the imaging device support. This allows the imaging device or the imaging device support to rotate horizontally, thereby adjusting the angle between the imaging device or the imaging device support and the rotating arm 12. This design also enhances operational flexibility and convenience, meeting the user's needs at different working angles and positions.

[0046] Please refer to Figures 2 to 5 The imaging device support includes a lifting mechanism 15 and a bracket 16 connected to the lifting mechanism 15. The lifting mechanism 15 is used to raise and lower the bracket 16, and the bracket 16 is used to mount the imaging device. The imaging device is mounted on the bracket 16 and can be raised and lowered in response to the adjustment of the lifting mechanism 15. The lifting mechanism 15 has a mounting hole 151, which is movably connected to the rotating shaft 133. The lifting mechanism 15 can rotate relative to the rotating shaft 133, allowing the user to adjust not only the height of the imaging device but also the tilt angle of the imaging device as needed.

[0047] The end of the rotating shaft 133 facing away from the connecting arm 132 is provided with an internal thread and a stud 152 that mates with the internal thread. The spiral structure of the stud 152 secures the rotating shaft 133 to the lifting mechanism 15. A nut 153 is provided at the lower end of the stud 152. The diameter of the mounting hole 151 is smaller than that of the nut 153, ensuring that the mounting hole 151 cannot fully accommodate the nut 153 and prevent it from slipping into the mounting hole 151. This allows the nut 153 to effectively restrict and secure the position of the lifting mechanism 15, ensuring that the lifting mechanism 15 maintains a stable connection with the rotating shaft 133 during use.

[0048] See also Figure 4, a first wire hole 134 is provided on the first connecting member 13, and the first wire hole 134 is provided between the fixing member 131 and the connecting member, and the first wire hole 134 provides a channel for cables, pipelines or other transmission devices. The rotating arm 12 is hollow and has a first cavity 121, forming an internal gap that can accommodate and hide cables, pipelines and other lines. The first wire hole 134 is connected to the first cavity 121, ensuring that the line passing through the first wire hole 134 can enter the cavity of the rotating arm 12, thereby realizing the hidden transmission function of the line. The above design not only makes the layout of the lines more neat and orderly, but also avoids the exposure of the lines and the potential risk of damage.

[0049] The fixing part 11 includes a base 111 and a fixing column 112, and the fixing part 11 includes a base 111 and a fixing column 112, which are used to ensure that the rotating bracket 10 is firmly mounted on the desktop 20. The fixing column 112 is passed through or sleeved on the base 111. The fixing column 112 is hollow to form a second cavity 114, which provides a hidden channel for the transmission line to avoid the line being exposed or interfering with other devices. A second wire hole 113 is provided at the lower end of the second cavity 114 or on the base 111, which is connected to the second cavity 114 to ensure that the line can enter the second cavity 114 through the second wire hole 113, thereby being smoothly transmitted to other parts. The base 111 is installed at the desktop 20 wire hole of the desktop 20, which not only firmly fixes the rotating bracket 10, but also provides a channel to allow the line to enter the second wire hole 113 from the bottom of the desktop 20 through the desktop 20 wire hole. After the line enters the second wire hole 113, it is transmitted along the inside of the second cavity 114 and is hidden inside the fixing column 112, which not only improves the aesthetics of the equipment but also avoids the potential safety hazards caused by the exposure of the line.

[0050] See also Figure 5 The rotating bracket 10 also includes a second connecting member 14, which includes a first connecting tube 141 and a second connecting tube 142 connected to each other. The second connecting member 14 is used to connect the fixed column 112 and the rotating arm 12, withstand the forces generated when the rotating arm 12 rotates and adjusts, and transmit these forces to the fixed column 112. The first connecting tube 141 and the second connecting tube 142 are respectively sleeved on the fixed column 112 and the rotating arm 12 to ensure stable cooperation between the two. Through this sleeve arrangement, the user can adjust the relative positions of the first connecting tube 141 and the fixed column 112, and the second connecting tube 142 and the rotating arm 12 according to needs, thereby adjusting the relative cooperation length between the rotating arm 12 and the fixed column 112 to meet the needs of different working positions and angles.

[0051] The first cavity 121 is connected to the second cavity 114. Specifically, the connection between the first cavity 121 and the second cavity 114 provides a continuous internal passage, forming a continuous space between the two, allowing wires, pipes, or other transmission devices to pass smoothly between different parts of the rotating bracket 10 while avoiding exposure or interference of the wires. Through this connection structure, the wires can enter the first cavity 121 through the first wire hole 134, pass through the first cavity 121 along the rotating arm 12, enter the second cavity 114, and finally extend out of the wire hole on the desktop 20, thereby ensuring the concealment and neatness of the wires.

[0052] See also Figure 4 and Figure 6 A ring gasket 143 is provided between the first connecting tube 141 and the fixed column 112, and the ring gasket 143 can reduce the tightness of the two. Prevent shaking between the first connecting tube 141 and the fixed column 112 during the use of the rotating bracket 10, and maintain the stability of the microscope during use. And ensure the smooth movement of the rotating connection part. A groove 144 is provided on the side of the ring gasket 143 facing the fixed column 112, and the groove 144 is filled with solid lubricant. The addition of solid lubricants (such as graphite, molybdenum disulfide, polytetrafluoroethylene, etc.) can provide long-lasting lubrication during the rotation of the rotating bracket 10, avoiding excessive wear caused by long-term friction. Compared with liquid lubricants, solid lubricants have higher stability and are not easy to lose or evaporate under high-frequency rotation or long-term use, ensuring the durability and stability of the lubrication effect.

[0053] In order to further enhance the stability of the microscope during use, two ring washers 143 can be provided, which are respectively installed at the two ends of the second connecting tube 142.

[0054] In summary, the utility model provides a rotating bracket, which includes a fixing portion, the fixing portion is used to be fixed on a desktop and fixed to one side of a workstation; a rotating arm, the rotating arm is rotatably connected to the fixing portion, and a first connecting member is provided at one end of the rotating arm away from the fixing portion; the first connecting member includes a fixing member and a connecting arm, the fixing member and the connecting arm are fixedly connected or integrally formed; the fixing member is used to be fixed to the end of the rotating arm, and the connecting arm is used to install an imaging device or a bracket of the imaging device; when the first connecting member is located at the workstation, the rotating arm is horizontally inclined to the front-to-back direction of the workstation, and the connecting arm extends horizontally along the front-to-back direction of the workstation. By providing the first connecting member and making the connecting arm extend along the front-to-back direction of the workstation when at the workstation, the rotating arm is horizontally inclined to the front-to-back direction of the workstation. When the microscope is at the workstation, the microscope and the rotating arm are misaligned in the vertical direction, and the microscope can obtain more room in the horizontal operating space, improving the operating space of the focusing knob and other operating components, enhancing the flexibility and convenience of user operation, and thus improving work efficiency.
