DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0036] In order to make the content of the utility model more easily be clearly understood, the following according to specific embodiment and combining the drawings, the utility model is further detailed.

[0037] Example 1:

[0038] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 The embodiment provides a lifting support mechanism, which comprises a lower support pipe, an upper support pipe partially sleeved on the outer layer of the lower support pipe and a screw rod assembly for driving the upper support pipe to move up and down relative to the lower support pipe.

[0039] The lower support pipe is located below the upper support pipe. As for the general shape of the lower support pipe and the upper support pipe, both can be cylindrical pipe bodies or vertical columns with rectangular cross sections, and the embodiment does not make absolute limitation to the specific shape, and the cylindrical pipe body is taken as an example for description in the embodiment in combination with the drawings. As for the material, in order to ensure that the upper support pipe and the lower support pipe can have strong support strength, the upper support pipe and the lower support pipe are both made of metal material.

[0040] Specifically, the lower support pipe comprises a lower pipe body 1 formed with a hollow inner cavity 11 and an opening provided at one side end of the lower pipe body 1 and penetrating through the hollow inner cavity 11; and a support base 2 is further provided at the side end of the lower pipe body 1 away from the upper pipe body 3, and the support base 2 can be directly supported on the ground to play a supporting role at the bottom.

[0041] The upper support pipe comprises an upper pipe body 3 formed with a hollow inner cavity 31 and a pair of openings provided at a pair of side ends of the upper pipe body 3 and penetrating through the hollow inner cavity 31; and the upper pipe body 3 is partially sleeved on the outside of the lower pipe body 1, and the upper pipe body 3 is adapted to move up and down along the lower pipe body 1.

[0042] On the basis of the above structure, based on the condition that the upper support pipe and the lower support pipe are both made of metal material, in order to reduce the friction of the upper support pipe relative to the lower support pipe during the lifting movement, the inner wall of the upper pipe body 3 and the outer wall of the lower pipe body 1 are also provided with a guide sleeve 4. Specifically, the guide sleeve 4 is fixed on the inner wall of the upper pipe body 3, and in this case, the guide sleeve 4 is made of plastic material; and the guide sleeve 4 is adapted to be interference fit with the hollow inner cavity 31 of the upper pipe body 3. In this structure, when the upper pipe body 3 moves up and down relative to the lower pipe body 1, the plastic guide sleeve 4 directly rubs against the outer wall of the lower pipe body 1.

[0043] Next, it is explained that the cooperation mode between the lead screw assembly and the upper support pipe and the lower support pipe:

[0044] The lead screw assembly includes a nut fixedly connected with the hollow inner cavity 11 of the lower pipe body 1 and a lead screw 5 matched with the nut; wherein the hollow inner cavity 11 of the lower pipe body 1 is provided with a connecting portion 12 connected with the nut. And the end of the upper pipe body 3 away from the lower pipe body 1 is provided with a support plate 61, and one end of the lead screw 5 penetrates through the support plate 61 and extends into the hollow inner cavity 31 of the upper pipe body 3; the support plate 61 is also provided with a power structure for driving the lead screw 5 to rotate.

[0045] The specific structure of the power structure is not absolutely limited in this embodiment, as long as it can drive the lead screw 5 to rotate, which meets the use requirement of this embodiment. Here, combined with the drawings, an example is given, the power structure includes a worm gear 71 provided on the end of the lead screw 5 extending on the side of the support plate 61 away from the upper support pipe, a worm 72 engaged with the worm gear 71, and a motor 73 for driving the worm 72 to operate. In addition, it should be noted that the motor 73 can be directly fixed on the support plate 61, and the side end of the support plate 61 away from the upper support pipe is fixed with a support seat 62 for rotating cooperation with the lead screw 5. The support seat 62 can be directly or indirectly fixed on the support plate 61 through the adapter plate 63. The lead screw 5 can be matched with the support seat 62 through the bearing, and the support plate 61 is provided with a through hole adapted for the lead screw 5 to penetrate.

[0046] Regarding the cooperation between the screw rod 5 and the lower supporting tube: the connecting part 12 is provided with an assembly hole for matching the nut; and the nut comprises a columnar body 91 adapted to penetrate the assembly hole and formed with an inner threaded hole for matching the screw rod 5, and a ring-shaped connecting piece 92 integrally formed on the outer side wall of the columnar body 91; wherein the ring-shaped connecting piece 92 is adapted to be lapped on the side end face of the connecting part 12 towards the upper tube body 3, thereby playing a fixing role for the nut through the connecting part 12, and when the screw rod 5 rotates, the nut is fixed, and then the screw rod 5 supporting plate 61 and the upper supporting tube body move together. Under this structure, in order to avoid the problem of unexpected disengagement between the screw rod 5 and the nut, a screw 51 is matched at the end of the screw rod 5 penetrating the inner threaded hole of the nut and away from the supporting base 62, and the outer diameter of the head end of the screw 51 is greater than the inner diameter of the inner threaded hole.

[0047] Next, it is to be explained that the embodiment is also provided with an elastic member, which is sleeved on the outer layer of the screw rod 5 and axially clamped between the connecting part 12 and the supporting plate 61, that is, for the two axial side ends of the elastic member, one axial side end is in abutment with the supporting plate 61, and the other axial side end is in abutment with the connecting part 12, so that in order to make the connecting part 12 better realize the supporting role for one axial side end of the elastic member, the outer diameter of the connecting part 12 is greater than the outer diameter of the ring-shaped connecting piece 92, and the inner diameter of the axial side end of the elastic member in abutment with the connecting part 12 is greater than the outer diameter of the ring-shaped connecting piece 92. Under such a structure, the connecting part 12 can simultaneously meet the cooperation requirements of the nut and the elastic member.

[0048] On the basis of the above, it needs to be explained that theoretically, the elastic member here can be realized by a columnar spring, but considering the purpose of prolonging the service life of the elastic member for a long time, the elastic member in the embodiment adopts a tower spring 8. The large-diameter axial side end of the tower spring 8 is in abutment with the supporting plate 61, and the small-diameter axial side end of the tower spring 8 is in abutment with the connecting part 12. The outer diameter of the large-diameter axial side end is greater than the outer diameter of the small-diameter axial side end.

[0049] In summary, for the lifting supporting mechanism of the embodiment, when the upper supporting tube moves downward relative to the lower supporting tube during the operation of the screw rod assembly, due to the role of the elastic member, on the one hand, it can avoid the downward movement speed of the upper supporting tube relative to the lower supporting tube being too fast, thereby improving the comfort of the lifting chair during the downward movement; on the other hand, the elastic member can be compressed and deformed with the downward movement of the lower supporting tube to play a role in energy storage, so that when the upper supporting tube needs to move upward relative to the lower supporting tube, not only the movement of the screw rod 5 can drive the movement of the upper supporting tube, but also the elastic member can assist the upward movement of the upper supporting tube through the restoring action, thereby reducing the pressure on the screw rod assembly caused by the load on the upper supporting tube. Therefore, through the setting of the elastic member, the lifting chair can be optimized during the lifting and adjusting process.
