[0021] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0022] Example 1
[0023] This embodiment provides a foldable bracket, such as Figure 1 As shown, the device includes a folding bracket body 1 and a wire storage plate 2. The folding bracket body 1 is used to fix electrical appliances. The wire storage plate 2 is disposed on the folding bracket body 1 and has wire holes 3 for threading electrical appliance wires. The number of wire holes 3 is set to a plurality of them, which are arranged along one end of the wire storage plate 2 to the other end of the wire storage plate 2. The wire holes 3 are used to allow the electrical appliance wires to extend along one end of the wire storage plate 2 to the other end of the wire storage plate 2.
[0024] For example, during implementation, the folding bracket body 1 is connected to the wall or ceiling of the house by screws. Appliances that require wires, such as televisions and air conditioner indoor units, are connected to the folding bracket body 1 by screws, clips, or other methods. This allows the appliances to be opened as the folding bracket body 1 extends and to be stored as the folding bracket body 1 retracts.
[0025] The wire storage plate 2 is mounted on the folding bracket body 1 by means of screwing, welding, etc. Wire holes 3 are provided on the surface of the wire storage plate 2. Several wire holes 3 are provided, and these wire holes 3 are arranged from one end of the wire storage plate 2 to the other end.
[0026] In use, the appliance is fixed to the folding bracket body 1. Then, the appliance's wires (power cord, HDMI cable, and other connecting wires) are sequentially threaded through the wire holes 3 along either the wire storage plate 2 from one end to the other, or from the other end to one end of the wire storage plate 2, so that the appliance's wires are neatly laid along the wire storage plate 2. For example, several wire holes 3 are sequentially labeled as the first wire hole 3, the second wire hole 3, the third wire hole 3, ... the Nth wire hole 3. One end of the appliance's wire is threaded through the first wire hole 3, then through the second wire hole 3, then through the third wire hole 3, and so on, until it enters or exits through the Nth wire hole 3. By arranging the wires in an orderly manner through the wire holes 3, the risk of messy wires is reduced, thereby reducing the risk of the wires being stretched, twisted, or pinched during the extension and retraction of the folding bracket body 1.
[0027] In a preferred embodiment, a plurality of guide holes are provided on both sides of the wire storage plate 2, and the guide holes on both sides of the guide storage plate are evenly distributed from one end of the wire storage plate 2 to the other end. This is intended to achieve the goal of separately organizing power lines, HDMI lines, and other signal lines on both sides of the wire storage plate 2, thereby reducing the risk of mutual interference between power lines and HDMI lines.
[0028] Example 2
[0029] In practical use, after the wire is threaded through the wire hole 3, if the wire hole 3 is circular, the wire bends significantly between adjacent wire holes 3, posing a risk of wire breakage. Therefore, to alleviate the bending of the wire as it passes through the wire holes 3, thereby reducing the risk of wire breakage, this embodiment, based on the above embodiment 1, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the wire hole 3 is elongated and slotted, and the length of the wire hole 3 extends from one end of the wire storage plate 2 to the other end of the wire storage plate 2.
[0030] For example, in the implementation process, the wire hole 3 is elongated and slotted. The length direction of the elongated slotted wire hole 3 is consistent with the length direction of the wire storage plate 2, that is, along the direction from one end to the other of the wire storage plate 2.
[0031] On the one hand, when the bracket extends or retracts, the elongated slotted wire hole 3 provides the wire with greater room to move, aiming to prevent the wire from being excessively stretched or compressed during the extension or retraction of the bracket, thereby reducing the risk of wire damage. Simultaneously, the wire can slide within the elongated slotted wire hole 3, aiming to reduce the risk of breakage or wear due to overly tight fixing of the wire. On the other hand, the elongated slotted wire hole 3 facilitates faster installation and adjustment of the wire by the user. Furthermore, the elongated slotted wire hole 3 reduces the degree of bending of the wire as it passes through the wire holes 3, aiming to further reduce the risk of wire breakage.
[0032] Example 3
[0033] Existing power cords typically consist of a conductor and a plug and socket connected to both ends of the conductor. The plug is used to connect to the power source, and the socket is used to connect to the appliance. The plug and socket are usually integrated into one piece, with both ends of the power cord attached. However, in actual use, there is a risk that the plug and socket may not easily pass through the conductor hole 3. Therefore, to facilitate the passage of the power cord conductor through the conductor hole 3, based on the above embodiment 2, in this embodiment, as... Figure 2 As shown, a wire channel 4 is provided on the side wall of the wire hole 3; the wire channel 4 penetrates the side wall of the wire storage plate 2; wherein, the wire channel 4 is used to reserve a channel for the wire to enter and exit the wire hole 3.
[0034] For example, during implementation, a wire channel 4 is provided on the side wall of the wire hole 3, and the wire channel 4 penetrates the side wall of the wire receiving plate 2. The width of the wire channel 4 is sufficient to accommodate the power cord (excluding plugs and sockets) to pass through, and the width of the wire channel 4 is less than the length of the wire hole 3, so that after the wire passes through the wire hole 3, the side wall of the wire hole 3 can limit the wire to reduce the risk of the wire slipping out of the wire hole 3.
[0035] In use, first thread the power cord through the cable tray 4 into the cable hole 3. Next, thread the cord sequentially through each cable hole 3, either from one end of the cable tray 2 to the other, or from the other end of the cable tray 2 to one end, until both ends of the cord reach the ends of the cable tray 2. Finally, connect the plug and socket to the corresponding appliance and power source. This design allows the power cord to easily pass through the cable holes 3 without forcing the plug or socket through, reducing the risk of damage. Furthermore, it allows the cord to easily enter and exit the cable holes 3 as needed, increasing the flexibility of cord management.
[0036] Example 4
[0037] Based on the above embodiment 1, in this embodiment, as follows: Figure 2 As shown, the folding bracket body 1 includes a folding arm 11 and a connecting plate 12; one side of the connecting plate 12 is connected to one end of the folding arm 11, and the other side of the connecting plate 12 is used to install electrical appliances; a mounting hole 5 is provided on the connecting plate 12; the mounting hole 5 extends along one side of the connecting plate 12 to the other side of the connecting plate 12; the wire storage plate 2 is disposed in the mounting hole 5.
[0038] For example, in implementation, the aforementioned folding bracket body 1 includes a folding arm 11 and a connecting plate 12. The folding arm 11 is fixed to the wall or ceiling of the house by screwing. One side of the connecting plate 12 is screwed to one end of the folding arm 11, and electrical appliances are connected to the other side of the connecting plate 12 by screwing, snap-fitting, or other methods. The connecting plate 12 has mounting holes 5 extending from one side to the other. The size of the mounting holes 5 is not smaller than the size of the wire storage plate 2, ensuring that the wire storage plate 2 can be installed in the mounting holes 5 on the connecting plate 12 by screwing, welding, or other methods.
[0039] In use, first, connect the folding arm 11 to the wall or ceiling of the house using screws. Next, insert the wire storage plate 2 into the mounting hole 5 of the connecting plate 12 and securely fix the wire storage plate 2 to the connecting plate 12 using screws, welding, or other methods. Then, connect the electrical appliance to the connecting plate 12 using screws, clips, or other methods. Next, fix the connecting plate 12 to the folding arm 11 using screws. Finally, thread the electrical appliance's wires through the wire holes 3 on the wire storage plate 2. The folding bracket body 1 is disassembled into multiple modules to facilitate the installation and removal of electrical appliances by the user.
[0040] Example 5
[0041] Based on the above embodiment 4, in this embodiment, as follows: Figure 3 As shown, the folding arm 11 includes a first arm body 111, a second arm body 112, and a telescopic rod 113; the first arm body 111 is rotatably connected to the second arm body 112; the two ends of the telescopic rod 113 are respectively connected to the first arm body 111 and the second arm body 112, and the telescopic rod 113 is used to drive the first arm body 111 and the second arm body 112 to move away from or closer to each other; the connecting plate 12 is disposed on the side of the first arm body 111 away from the telescopic rod 113 or on the side of the second arm body 112 away from the telescopic rod 113.
[0042] For example, in the implementation process, the folding arm 11 includes a first arm body 111, a second arm body 112, and a telescopic rod 113. The first arm body 111 is rotatably connected to the second arm body 112 through a shaft hole, bearing, or other means, so that the first arm body 111 rotates in a direction that moves closer to or further away from the second arm body 112.
[0043] The telescopic rod 113 can be an electric telescopic rod 113, a pneumatic telescopic rod 113, or other structures. The two ends of the telescopic rod 113 are rotatably connected to the sides of the first arm 111 and the second arm 112 that are close to each other via shaft holes, bearings, or other means. This ensures that when the telescopic rod 113 extends, the first arm 111 and the second arm 112 move away from each other; when the telescopic rod 113 retracts, the first arm 111 and the second arm 112 move closer to each other.
[0044] The connecting plate 12 is connected to the side of the first arm 111 away from the telescopic rod 113 or the side of the second arm 112 away from the telescopic rod 113 by screwing. The electrical components are connected to the side of the connecting plate 12 away from the telescopic rod 113 by screwing, snapping, or other means.
[0045] In use, one end of the first arm 111 and one end of the second arm 112 are rotatably connected. Next, the telescopic rod 113 is placed between the first arm 111 and the second arm 112, and both ends of the telescopic rod 113 are rotatably connected to the sides of the first arm 111 and the second arm 112 that are close to each other, to ensure the telescopic rod 113 can function normally. Then, the first arm 111 or the second arm 112 is fixed to the wall or ceiling of the house by screwing. Next, the wire storage plate 2 is placed into the mounting hole 5 of the connecting plate 12, and the wire storage plate 2 is firmly fixed to the connecting plate 12 by screwing, welding, or other methods. Electrical appliances are then connected to the connecting plate 12 by screwing, snapping, or other methods. Finally, the connecting plate 12 is fixed to the side of the second arm 112 away from the telescopic rod 113 or the side of the first arm 111 away from the telescopic rod 113 by screwing, and the electrical appliance wires are threaded through the wire holes 3 on the wire storage plate 2. The telescopic rod 113 is designed to drive the first arm 111 and the second arm 112 to move away from or closer together, thereby enabling the opening and closing of electrical appliances. Simultaneously, it allows users to adjust the height and angle of the appliances as needed, thus improving the flexibility of appliance use.
[0046] Example 6
[0047] The connecting plate 12 lacks a positioning and suspension structure. During electrical installation, at least one person must first lift the electrical appliance and connecting plate 12, aligning them with the connecting holes on the first arm 111 or the second arm 112. Then, another person must use screws to fix the connecting plate 12 to the first arm 111 or the second arm 112. This significantly increases the installation difficulty. Therefore, to reduce the installation difficulty, based on the above embodiment 5, in this embodiment, as... Figure 4 As shown, the folding arm 11 also includes a hook 114; the hook 114 is disposed on the side of the first arm body 111 away from the telescopic rod 113 or on the side of the second arm body 112 away from the telescopic rod 113; the wire storage plate 2 has a hook groove 6 on the side away from the connecting plate 12; wherein, the connecting plate 12 is used to be hung on the hook 114 via the hook groove 6 to initially position the installation position of the connecting plate 12 on the first arm body 111 or the second arm body 112.
[0048] For example, in implementation, the folding arm 11 also includes a hook 114. The hook 114 is fixed by welding, screwing, or other means on the side of the first arm 111 away from the telescopic rod 113 or on the side of the second arm 112 away from the telescopic rod 113. The wire storage plate 2 has a hook groove 6 on the side away from the connecting plate 12. The hook groove 6 is used to cooperate with the hook 114 to achieve the initial positioning of the connecting plate 12.
[0049] In use, one end of the first arm 111 and one end of the second arm 112 are rotatably connected via shaft holes, bearings, or other means to ensure that the first arm 111 can rotate in a direction closer to or further away from the second arm 112. Next, the telescopic rod 113 is placed between the first arm 111 and the second arm 112, and both ends of the telescopic rod 113 are rotatably connected to the sides of the first arm 111 and the second arm 112 that are close to each other, ensuring that the telescopic rod 113 can function normally. Then, the first arm 111 or the second arm 112 is fixed to the wall or ceiling of the house by screwing. The hook 114 is installed on the side of the second arm 112 away from the telescopic rod 113 or on the side of the first arm 111 away from the telescopic rod 113. Next, the wire storage plate 2 is placed into the mounting hole 5 of the connecting plate 12 and securely fixed to the connecting plate 12 by screwing, welding, or other means. The electrical appliance is connected to the side of the connecting plate 12 away from the telescopic rod 113 using screws, clips, or other methods. Finally, the hook groove 6 of the wire storage plate 2 on the connecting plate 12 is aligned with the hook 114 to hang the connecting plate 12 on the hook 114, achieving initial positioning. The connecting plate 12 is then fixed to the second arm 112 or the first arm 111 using screws. The electrical appliance's wire is then threaded through the wire hole 3 on the wire storage plate 2.
[0050] By utilizing the hook groove 6 of the wire storage plate 2 on the connecting plate 12, the connecting plate 12 is pre-hung on the hook 114 of the first arm 111 or the second arm 112. This aims to achieve initial positioning of the connecting plate 12, thereby eliminating the need for prolonged manual lifting of the connecting plate 12 and electrical components, thus reducing installation difficulty. Furthermore, after the connecting plate 12 is initially positioned, one person can easily complete the subsequent fixing work, thereby improving installation efficiency.
[0051] In practice, if the first arm 111 is used to fix itself to the wall or ceiling of the house, the hook 114 is set on the second arm 112; if the second arm is used to fix itself to the wall or ceiling of the house, the hook 114 is set on the first arm 111.
