[0036] like Figures 1-10 As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, a bidirectional limiting folding mechanism is provided, including a first support frame 10, a connecting shaft 20, a second support frame 30, a first one-way bearing 40, a second one-way bearing 50, a locking head 60, and a drive assembly 70. The connecting shaft 20 is mounted on the first support frame 10 without relative rotation, and the connecting shaft 20 can move along its own axis on the first support frame 10. The second support frame 30 is connected to the connecting shaft 20 and can rotate around the axis of the connecting shaft 20. The first one-way bearing 40 is fixedly installed on the side of the second support frame 30 opposite to the first support frame 10, and the second one-way bearing 50 is fixedly installed on the side of the first one-way bearing 40 opposite to the second support frame 30. The locking direction of the second one-way bearing 50 is opposite to that of the first one-way bearing 40, and the axes of the second one-way bearing 50, the first one-way bearing 40, and the connecting shaft 20 coincide. Both the first one-way bearing 40 and the second one-way bearing 50 are one-way needle roller bearings, which are existing technology and will not be described in detail in this embodiment.

[0037] The locking head 60 is coaxially fixed to one end of the connecting shaft 20. Both the locking head 60 and the connecting shaft 20 are cylindrical. The locking head 60 mates with the first one-way bearing 40 and the second one-way bearing 50, respectively. The drive assembly 70 is used to drive the connecting shaft 20 to move so that the locking head 60 mates with only the first one-way bearing 40 or the second one-way bearing 50, or simultaneously with both the first one-way bearing 40 and the second one-way bearing 50.

[0038] The folding mechanism is in the initial state, the locking head 60 is clamped in the first one-way bearing 40 and the second one-way bearing 50 (the locking head 60 abuts against the needle rollers in the first one-way bearing 40 and the second one-way bearing 50), because the locking directions of the first one-way bearing 40 and the second one-way bearing 50 are opposite, they will interfere with each other. The connecting shaft 20 is installed on the first support frame 10, and the first one-way bearing 40 and the second one-way bearing 50 are installed on the second support frame 30, therefore, the first support frame 10 and the second support frame 30 cannot rotate, and the first support frame 10 and the second support frame 30 are in a locked state.

[0039] Referring to Figure 10 When it is necessary to adjust the included angle of the first support frame 10 and the second support frame 30, the user operates the driving assembly 70 to move the connecting shaft 20 to the right, and the locking head 60 gradually separates from the second one-way bearing 50, and finally only cooperates with the first one-way bearing 40, thereby completing the unlocking in one direction, at this time, the included angle of the first support frame 10 and the second support frame 30 can be adjusted in this direction. After adjustment, the user operates the driving assembly 70 to move the connecting shaft 20 to the left to reset, and when the locking head 60 cooperates with the first one-way bearing 40 and the second one-way bearing 50 at the same time, the first support frame 10 and the second support frame 30 will be in a locked state again.

[0040] In addition, when it is necessary to adjust the included angle of the first support frame 10 and the second support frame 30, the user can also operate the driving assembly 70 to move the connecting shaft 20 to the left, and the locking head 60 gradually separates from the first one-way bearing 40, and finally only cooperates with the second one-way bearing 50, thereby completing the unlocking in one direction, at this time, the included angle of the first support frame 10 and the second support frame 30 can be adjusted in this direction. After adjustment, the user operates the driving assembly 70 to move the connecting shaft 20 to the right to reset, and when the locking head 60 cooperates with the first one-way bearing 40 and the second one-way bearing 50 at the same time, the first support frame 10 and the second support frame 30 will be in a locked state again.

[0041] The folding mechanism disclosed in the embodiment can limit in two directions, which designs the first one-way bearing 40 and the second one-way bearing 50 with opposite locking directions on the second support frame 30. By operating the driving assembly 70, the connecting shaft 20 drives the locking head 60 to move, so that the locking head 60 cooperates with the first one-way bearing 40 only, or cooperates with the second one-way bearing 50 only, or cooperates with the first one-way bearing 40 and the second one-way bearing 50 simultaneously, so as to realize the unlocking and locking of the first support frame 10 and the second support frame 30. Even if the included angle between the first support frame 10 and the second support frame 30 is small, it can also be firmly locked, so as to facilitate the adjustment of the included angle between the first support frame 10 and the second support frame 30, the overall structure is simple, the locking effect is good, and the operation is convenient.

[0042] In one embodiment, the driving assembly 70 includes a guide cylinder 71 and a driving cylinder 72. The guide cylinder 71 is fixedly installed on the side of the first support frame 10 away from the first one-way bearing 40. The connecting shaft 20 is movably fitted in the guide cylinder 71 and does not rotate relative to the guide cylinder 71. The guide cylinder 71 is provided with a strip-shaped hole 711 extending along the length direction of the connecting shaft 20. The driving cylinder 72 is sleeved outside the guide cylinder 71 and can rotate around the axis of the connecting shaft 20. The driving cylinder 72 is provided with a spiral hole 721 extending spirally along the axial direction of the driving cylinder 72. The connecting shaft 20 is fixedly installed with a guide column 21. The guide column 21 passes through the strip-shaped hole 711 and the spiral hole 721 in sequence.

[0043] By rotating the driving cylinder 72, the spiral hole 721 on the driving cylinder 72 pushes the guide column 21, so that the guide column 21 drives the connecting shaft 20 to move. Since the guide column 21 is simultaneously limited in the spiral hole 721 and the strip-shaped hole 711, the guide column 21 can only move along the strip-shaped hole 711, and the connecting shaft 20 can only move along the axis direction of itself and does not rotate relative to the guide cylinder 71.

[0044] During the movement of the connecting shaft 20, the locking head 60 cooperates with the first one-way bearing 40, or cooperates with the second one-way bearing 50, or cooperates with the first one-way bearing 40 and the second one-way bearing 50 simultaneously, so as to realize the adjustment of the unlocking or locking state of the first support frame 10 and the second support frame 30. The structure design of the driving assembly 70 is ingenious and convenient to operate.

[0045] Further, the driving assembly 70 further comprises a first pull rope 73 and a second pull rope 74, one end of the first pull rope 73 and the second pull rope 74 is connected with the driving cylinder 72, the direction of the first pull rope 73 driving the driving cylinder 72 to rotate is opposite to the direction of the second pull rope 74 driving the driving cylinder 72 to rotate. By designing the first pull rope 73 and the second pull rope 74, it is convenient for the user to operate the driving cylinder 72 to rotate forward or reverse, thereby facilitating the unlocking or locking operation of the first support frame 10 and the second support frame 30.

[0046] In one embodiment, the driving assembly 70 further comprises an elastic reset member 75, the elastic reset member 75 is used to apply elastic force to the connecting shaft 20 to prevent the connecting shaft 20 from being separated from the connection state with the first one-way bearing 40 and the second one-way bearing 50. The end of the guide cylinder 71 away from the first one-way bearing 40 is provided with a through hole 712, the end of the connecting shaft 20 away from the locking head 60 is provided with an extension column 22, the extension column 22 is adapted to pass through the through hole 712 and then protrude out of the guide cylinder 71. The elastic reset member 75 is selected from a spring, the elastic reset member 75 is sleeved outside the extension column 22, and the two ends of the elastic reset member 75 are connected with the extension column 22 and the guide cylinder 71 respectively.

[0047] Under the action of the elastic force of the elastic reset member 75, the locking head 60 can be kept in the connection state with the first one-way bearing 40 and the second one-way bearing 50, that is, the first support frame 10 and the second support frame 30 are kept in the locked state. When the locking head 60 is separated from the first one-way bearing 40 or the second one-way bearing 50, the elastic reset member 75 will apply force to the connecting shaft 20 to reset the locking head 60 and the driving cylinder 72.

[0048] In one embodiment, the cross section of the extension column 22 is non-circular. The cooperation of the extension column 22 and the through hole 712 can not only enable the connecting shaft 20 to move along its own axis on the first support frame 10, but also prevent the connecting shaft 20 from rotating relative to the first support frame 10. That is, the first support frame 10 and the connecting shaft 20 as a whole rotate relative to the second support frame 30, or the second support frame 30 rotates relative to the first support frame 10 and the connecting shaft 20. In this way, not only is the machining convenient, but also the stability of the overall structure is improved.

[0049] In one embodiment, in order to avoid the first pull rope 73 and the second pull rope 74 from being separated from the driving cylinder 72, the driving cylinder 72 is provided with a limiting flange 722, the limiting flange 722 is used to prevent the first pull rope 73 and the second pull rope 74 from being separated from the driving cylinder 72.

[0050] In one embodiment, the guide cylinder 71 is provided with a limiting member 80 outside, the limiting member 80 is used to prevent the driving cylinder 72 from moving in the axial direction relative to the guide cylinder 71, and the limiting member 80 is selected from a snap spring. Under the limitation of the limiting member 80, the driving cylinder 72 can be prevented from moving in the axial direction relative to the guide cylinder 71.

[0051] The embodiment also provides a learning desk using the bidirectional limiting folding mechanism, which comprises a table frame and a table board, the table board is hinged to the table frame, the first supporting frame 10 is hinged to the table frame, and the second supporting frame 30 is hinged to the table board. By using the bidirectional limiting folding mechanism, even if the inclination angle of the table board is small (for example, the inclination angle is 10° or below), the folding mechanism can overcome the weight of the table board, so that the table board is stably kept in the inclined state and does not fail, and the use requirement of the user is met.

[0052] In the description of the utility model, a large number of specific details are explained. However, it can be understood that the embodiments of the utility model can be practiced without these specific details. In some examples, well-known methods, structures and techniques are not shown in detail in order not to obscure the understanding of the present description.

[0053] Finally, it should be noted that: the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical scheme of the utility model, and not to limit it; although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that: it can still modify the technical scheme recorded in the foregoing embodiments, or make equivalent replacement to part or all of the technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical scheme deviate from the scope of the technical scheme of the embodiments of the utility model, and they should be covered in the scope of the claims and the description of the utility model.
