Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of computer stand technology, and in particular to a clamping component for a computer stand. Background Technology

[0002] The existing clamping assembly has a teardrop-shaped through hole in the middle of the upper bracket, which is then hung on by a bolt threaded onto the lower bracket to connect the upper and lower brackets. This allows the clamping assembly to be held in place on the table. The gap between the clamping member and the upper bracket is adjusted by connecting the clamping member to the lower bracket, thereby strengthening the clamping assembly's gripping strength on the table. However, the fixed spacing of the through hole in the existing technology reduces the strength of the upper bracket, requiring reinforcement on both sides. Furthermore, the bolts can loosen and wobble, necessitating regular checks and tightening, and they can also make noise. Therefore, there is room for further improvement. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of this, this application provides a clamping component for a computer stand, which can keep the middle part of the upper stand intact, maintain the strength of the upper stand, and does not require additional reinforcement measures. Furthermore, the lower stand is connected to the upper stand by an integrally formed curved protrusion, which hangs and connects with the first protrusion of the upper stand, so that the lower stand and the upper stand are tightly connected without shaking or noise.

[0004] In summary, in order to reduce the noise and loosening of the clamping components, strengthen the connection strength of the clamping components, and save on the materials used in the clamping components, this application proposes a clamping component for a computer stand.

[0005] The clamping assembly for a computer stand provided in this application adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A clamping assembly for a computer stand includes a main support and a clamping member. The main support includes an upper support and a lower support. The upper support includes a first horizontal plate and a first vertical plate, with the first horizontal plate connected to the first vertical plate. The lower support includes a second horizontal plate and a second vertical plate, with the second horizontal plate connected to the second vertical plate. The first vertical plate has first grooves on both sides, forming a first protrusion between the two first grooves. The first vertical plate also has curved protrusions on both sides, which engage with the first protrusions. The clamping member is connected to the horizontal plate.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, the user estimates the thickness of the desktop and installs the curved protrusion of the lower bracket at an angle into the first groove of the appropriate upper bracket. By pulling down the lower bracket, the curved protrusion of the lower bracket hooks onto the first protrusion of the upper bracket, forming a horizontal "U"-shaped main bracket. The user clamps the main bracket onto the table and adjusts the relative distance between the lower bracket and the clamping member, causing the clamping member to further compress the table, thereby tightly and stably installing the clamping component on the table. The convenient connection between the lower and upper brackets allows for quick connection of the clamping component to various desktops. The upper bracket has a complete middle section and high structural strength, requiring no additional reinforcing materials, which helps reduce the production cost of the clamping component. Furthermore, the curved protrusion and the lower bracket are integrally molded, eliminating the need for additional installation time and shortening the production time of the clamping component. Due to the integral molding, the curved protrusion and the lower bracket will not wobble or make abnormal noises over time, giving the main bracket good performance.

[0008] Preferably, the second vertical plate has second grooves on both sides, and the curved protrusion is disposed on the inner wall of the second groove on the second vertical plate.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the bend is formed by stamping from the second groove and then formed into a lower bracket after heat treatment. On the one hand, this makes the production of the lower bracket more convenient, and the structural strength of the bend is guaranteed during the heat treatment process. On the other hand, the setting of the second groove further saves the material used for the lower bracket and further reduces production costs.

[0010] Preferably, the clamping member includes a screw and a retaining plate, the screw being connected to the second horizontal plate and the retaining plate being connected to the upper end of the screw.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the screw is threadedly connected to the second horizontal plate, which allows the screw to move relative to the second horizontal plate, thereby allowing the abutment piece to press against the table together with the first horizontal plate, thus strengthening the connection between the clamping component and the table.

[0012] Preferably, the upper support is provided with a connector, which includes a raised portion for connecting with the upper support and a contact portion for connecting with the desktop. The raised portion is connected to the contact portion, and the contact portion is U-shaped.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the contact range between the upper support and the desktop is expanded through the connector, so that the pressure of the upper support on the desktop can be evenly transferred to the "U"-shaped contact part. The near-linear contact surface makes the strength of the contact surface more uniform and will not damage the desktop.

[0014] Preferably, the contact portion is provided with a protective pad.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the integrity of the desktop can be further protected while ensuring connection strength.

[0016] Preferably, the upper support is provided with a rotating component.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, it is convenient to connect the clamping component with other rotating parts of the computer stand.

[0018] Preferably, a connecting protrusion is provided at the connection between the first horizontal plate and the first vertical plate; a connecting protrusion is also provided at the connection between the second vertical plate and the second horizontal plate.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the connection strength at the connection between the first horizontal plate and the first vertical plate is strengthened by connecting protrusions; the connection strength at the connection between the second horizontal plate and the second vertical plate is strengthened by connecting protrusions.

[0020] Preferably, the connection between the first horizontal plate and the first vertical plate is provided with a connecting groove at the location opposite to the connecting protrusion; the connection between the second vertical plate and the second horizontal plate is also provided with a connecting groove at the location opposite to the connecting protrusion.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, the connection positions of the first vertical plate and the second horizontal plate are not on the same axis, which makes the connection strength between the first vertical plate and the first horizontal plate better and saves more material; by making the connection positions of the second vertical plate and the second horizontal plate not on the same axis, the connection strength between the second vertical plate and the second horizontal plate is better and saves more material.

[0022] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0023] 1. By estimating the thickness of the tabletop, the user tilts the lower bracket's curved protrusion and installs it at an angle into the first groove of the upper bracket. By pulling down the lower bracket, the curved protrusion hooks onto the first protrusion of the upper bracket, forming a horizontal "U"-shaped main support. The user grips the table with the main support and adjusts the relative distance between the lower bracket and the clamping member, causing the clamping member to further compress the table, thus securing the clamping component tightly and stably on the table. The convenient connection between the lower and upper brackets allows for quick connection of the clamping component to various tabletops. The upper bracket has a complete middle section and high structural strength, eliminating the need for additional reinforcing materials, which helps reduce the production cost of the clamping component. Furthermore, the curved protrusion and lower bracket are integrally molded, eliminating the need for additional installation time and shortening the production time of the clamping component. Due to the integral molding, the curved protrusion and lower bracket will not wobble or make noise over time, resulting in good performance of the main support.

[0024] 2. The bend is formed by stamping from the second groove and then heat-treated to form the lower bracket. This makes the production of the lower bracket more convenient and ensures the structural strength of the bend during the heat treatment process. In addition, the setting of the second groove further saves the material used for the lower bracket and further reduces production costs.

[0025] 3. By making the connection positions of the first vertical plate and the second horizontal plate not on the same axis, the connection strength between the first vertical plate and the first horizontal plate is good, and more material is saved; by making the connection positions of the second vertical plate and the second horizontal plate not on the same axis, the connection strength between the second vertical plate and the second horizontal plate is good, and more material is saved.

[0031] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-4 This application will be described in further detail.

[0032] This application discloses a clamping component for a computer stand.

[0033] Reference Figures 1-4The system includes a main support 1 and a clamping member 2. The main support 1 includes an upper support 3 and a lower support 4. The upper support 3 includes a first horizontal plate 5 and a first vertical plate 6, which are integrally formed. The first vertical plate 6 has first grooves 9 evenly formed on both sides, so that the first vertical plate 6 forms a first protrusion 10 at the position between the first grooves 9. The lower support 4 includes a second horizontal plate 7 and a second vertical plate 8, which are integrally formed. The second vertical plate 8 has evenly formed on both sides. There is a curved protrusion 11, which can be hung on the first protrusion 10, so that the curved protrusion 11 and the first protrusion 10 are engaged. The second horizontal plate 7 has a threaded hole. The clamping member 2 includes a screw 13 and abutment plate 14. The screw 13 is inserted into the second horizontal plate 7 from the lower side, so that the screw 13 is threadedly connected to the second horizontal plate 7. The upper end of the screw 13 is screwed to the abutment plate 14, so that the screw 13 and the second horizontal plate 7 rotate, causing the distance between the abutment plate 14 and the first horizontal plate 5 to decrease.

[0034] The user estimates the thickness of the tabletop and tilts the bent protrusion 11 of the lower support 4 into the first groove 9 of the appropriate upper support 3. By pulling down the lower support 4, the bent protrusion 11 of the lower support 4 hangs on the first protrusion 10 of the upper support 3, so that the upper support 3 and the lower support 4 form a horizontal "U"-shaped main support 1. The user clamps the main support 1 onto the table and adjusts the relative distance between the abutment piece 14 and the first horizontal plate 5 by rotating the clamping member 2 on the lower support 4, so that the clamping member 2 further presses the table, thereby tightly and stably installing the clamping component on the table. Through the convenient connection between the lower support 4 and the upper support 3, the clamping component can be quickly connected to various tabletops. The middle part of the upper support 3 is intact, and the structural strength is high. No additional reinforcing materials are required, which helps to reduce the production cost of the clamping component. The bent protrusion 11 and the lower support 4 are integrally formed, which does not require additional installation time and helps to shorten the production time of the clamping component. Moreover, due to the integral molding, the bent protrusion 11 and the lower support 4 will not wobble or make abnormal noise over time, so that the main support 1 has good performance.

[0035] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the second vertical plate 8 has second grooves 12 on both sides, and the curved protrusion 11 is located on the upper wall of the second groove 12. The connection between the curved protrusion 11 and the first vertical plate 6 is arc-shaped, and the curved protrusion 11 as a whole is also approximately arc-shaped. This allows the curved protrusion 11 to be formed by stamping from the second groove 12. After heat treatment, it forms the lower support 4. On the one hand, this makes the production of the lower support 4 more convenient, and the structural strength of the curved protrusion 11 is guaranteed during the heat treatment process. On the other hand, the setting of the second groove 12 further saves the material used for the lower support 4 and further saves production costs.

[0036] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the upper side of the upper support 3 is bolted with a connector 15. The connector 15 includes a raised portion 16 for connecting with the upper support 3 and a contact portion 17 for connecting with the tabletop. The raised portion 16 and the contact portion 17 are integrally formed, and the contact portion 17 is U-shaped. By expanding the contact range between the upper support 3 and the tabletop through the connector 15, the pressure of the upper support 3 on the table can be evenly transferred to the U-shaped contact portion 17. The near-linear contact surface makes the strength of the contact surface more uniform and will not damage the tabletop.

[0037] Furthermore, in this embodiment, an elastic protective pad 18 is glued to the lower side of the contact portion 17 to further protect the integrity of the desktop while ensuring the connection strength.

[0038] Furthermore, in this embodiment, a rotating component 19 is placed on the connector 15, and a screw is provided on the lower side of the first horizontal plate 5. The screw passes through the first horizontal plate 5 and the connector 15 and connects to the rotating component 19, which facilitates the rotational connection between the clamping assembly and other parts of the computer bracket.

[0039] Furthermore, in this embodiment, a connecting protrusion 20 is integrally formed at the connection between the first horizontal plate 5 and the first vertical plate 6; a connecting protrusion 20 is also integrally formed at the connection between the second vertical plate 8 and the second horizontal plate 7. The connecting protrusion 20 strengthens the connection strength at the connection between the first horizontal plate 5 and the first vertical plate 6, and strengthens the connection strength at the connection between the second horizontal plate 7 and the second vertical plate 8.

[0040] Furthermore, in this embodiment, a connecting groove 21 is provided on the back of the connecting protrusion 20 at the connection point between the first horizontal plate 5 and the first vertical plate 6; a connecting groove 21 is also provided on the back of the connecting protrusion 20 at the connection point between the second vertical plate 8 and the second horizontal plate 7. By making the connection positions of the first vertical plate 6 and the second horizontal plate 7 not on the same axis, it is more economical to have a good connection strength between the first vertical plate 6 and the first horizontal plate 5; by making the connection positions of the second vertical plate 8 and the second horizontal plate 7 not on the same axis, it is more economical to have a good connection strength between the second vertical plate 8 and the second horizontal plate 7.

[0041] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the present invention does not particularly limit the specific connection method between the clamping member 2 and the second horizontal plate 7. Any method known to those skilled in the art that enables the clamping member 2 to move relative to the second horizontal plate 7 can be used. Those skilled in the art can select and adjust according to specific application conditions and product requirements. The preferred connection methods of the present invention are threaded connection, pin connection, pin limit, etc.

[0042] It should be noted that the various embodiments of this application can be arbitrarily combined into new embodiments, provided that the solutions do not conflict and the technical solutions can coexist.

[0043] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
