Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of furniture, and in particular to a footrest, a chair, and a combined table. Background Technology

[0002] The main function of table leg inserts is to prevent slipping and protect the floor. They are typically installed at the bottom of the table and, thanks to their unique anti-slip design, significantly increase friction with the floor, effectively preventing the table from sliding on smooth surfaces. In addition, the leg inserts also protect the floor, preventing the table legs from scratching or abrading the floor surface.

[0003] However, most existing foot plugs use a slip-on structure, directly fitting onto the outside of the table or chair legs. During installation, it's crucial to ensure a tight fit between the inner wall of the foot plug and the outer wall of the leg to prevent it from falling off. However, this design often prioritizes aesthetics, resulting in a thinner portion of the foot plug covering the leg surface. In daily use, the foot plug is directly exposed to the external environment, and its surface structure is easily worn down by friction and impact, leading to a shorter lifespan.

[0042] Reference Figures 1-5 The basic embodiment of the first aspect of this utility model provides a foot plug, comprising:

[0043] The rigid fixing part 100 includes a fixing part body 110 and a first insert 120 extending from the fixing part body 110, wherein the fixing part body 110 is provided with a second slot.

[0044] The soft pad portion 200 includes a pad portion body 210 and a second insert 220 extending from the pad portion body 210, the second insert 220 being capable of being inserted into the second slot.

[0045] According to the embodiments of this utility model, by such a configuration, at least the following effects can be achieved: the rigid fixing part 100 is made of rigid material, the soft pad part 200 is made of soft material, the fixing part body 110 is used to support the support leg 300 of the table or chair, the first plug 120 is used to insert into the support leg 300 so that the foot plug can be fixed on the support leg 300 for easy installation, the pad part body 210 is located below the foot plug and is in direct contact with the ground, the soft pad is subjected to the pressure of the upper component, causing the pad part to be deformed under pressure, which is conducive to the tight bonding between the pad part and the ground, increasing the friction between the pad part and the ground, and preventing slippage; the second plug 220 is used to insert into the fixing part body 110 so that the pad part can be installed on the fixing part.

[0046] It should be noted that rigid materials can be metals, rigid plastics, ceramics, etc., while flexible materials can be rubber or silicone, etc.

[0047] In some embodiments, the first plug-in 120 includes:

[0048] An annular support surface 121 is provided on the fixing part body 110;

[0049] Multiple first protruding ridges 122 are distributed around the peripheral wall of the annular support surface 121, and the outer wall of the first protruding ridge 122 is used to abut against the inner wall of the support foot 300.

[0050] In this configuration, the annular support surface 121 is used to insert the first slot of the support foot 300. The first protruding ridge 122 is provided on the peripheral wall of the annular support surface 121. When the support foot 300 is inserted, the first protruding ridge 122 directly abuts against the inner wall of the support foot 300, so that the first protruding ridge 122 and the inner wall of the support foot 300 rub against each other, which can prevent the rigid fixing part 100 from falling off the support foot 300. Only the outer wall of the first protruding ridge 122 contacts the inner wall of the support foot 300, which can effectively reduce the contact area between the support foot 300 and the rigid fixing part 100, which is conducive to the insertion of the first plug 120 into the support foot 300.

[0051] In some embodiments, the cross-section of the first protruding ridge 122 is semi-circular, trapezoidal, or triangular. The width of the first protruding ridge 122 gradually decreases from a position near the center of the rigid fixing part 100 to a position away from the center of the rigid fixing part 100. The width is larger near the center of the fixing part, which is beneficial to the stability of the structure. The width is smaller away from the center of the fixing part, which can reduce the contact area between the first protruding ridge 122 and the inner wall of the support foot 300, which is beneficial to the insertion of the first plug 120 into the support foot 300.

[0052] In some embodiments, the first protruding ridge 122 is provided with a guide slope 123 on the side away from the fixing part body 110. The guide slope 123 can reduce jamming during installation and plays a guiding role, which is conducive to inserting the first plug-in 120 into the inner wall of the support foot 300.

[0053] In some embodiments, the pad body 210 is provided with a textured surface 211, which is used to abut against the ground. The textured surface 211 can increase the friction between the pad and the ground, thereby improving the stability of the support foot.

[0054] Furthermore, the raised and recessed texture 211 is distributed around the center of the gasket body 210.

[0055] In some embodiments, multiple second plug-ins 220 are provided, and the multiple second plug-ins 220 are distributed around the peripheral wall of the gasket body 210, and the fixing body 110 is provided with multiple second slots accordingly. When multiple second plug-ins 220 are simultaneously inserted into the corresponding second slots, the contact area between the side of the second plug-in 220 near the center of the gasket and the fixing body 110 can be increased, thereby improving installation stability.

[0056] In some embodiments, the outer wall of the second plug-in 220 is provided with a plurality of second protrusions 221, the second protrusions 221 being distributed around the peripheral wall of the second plug-in 220, and the second protrusions 221 being able to abut against the inner wall of the second slot.

[0057] In this configuration, the second insert 220 is used to insert into the second slot of the support foot 300. The second protrusion 221 is provided on the peripheral wall of the second insert 220. When inserted into the fixing body 110, the second protrusion 221 directly abuts against the inner wall of the support foot 300, so that the second protrusion 221 rubs against the inner wall of the fixing body, which can prevent the second insert 220 from falling off the fixing body 110. Only the outer wall of the second protrusion 221 contacts the inner wall of the support foot 300, and there is a certain gap between the second insert 220 and the inner wall of the fixing body. When the second insert 220 is installed, the second insert 220 is deformed and squeezed by external force, which is conducive to the insertion of the second insert 220 into the support foot 300.

[0058] A basic embodiment of the second aspect of this utility model provides a chair, including footrests.

[0059] A basic embodiment of the third aspect of this utility model provides a combined table, comprising:

[0060] Support leg 300, equipped with a first slot;

[0061] A foot plug, wherein the first insert 120 of the foot plug is capable of being inserted into the first slot.

[0062] In this configuration, the rigid fixing part 100 is made of rigid material, and the soft pad part 200 is made of soft material. The fixing part body 110 is used to support the support leg 300 of the table or chair. The first plug 120 is used to insert into the support leg 300 so that the foot plug can be fixed on the support leg 300. The pad part body 210 is located below the foot plug and is in direct contact with the ground. The soft pad is subjected to the pressure of the upper component, causing the pad part to deform under pressure, which is conducive to the tight bonding between the pad part and the ground, increasing the friction between the pad part and the ground, and preventing slippage. The second plug 220 is used to insert into the fixing part body 110 so that the pad part can be installed on the fixing part.

[0063] In some embodiments, the maximum diameter of the outer surface of the fixing body 110 is equal to the outer diameter of the support foot 300. The diameters of the support foot 300 and the fixing body 110 match, and after installation, they form a complete cylindrical structure without any protrusions or depressions in the middle, which is more aesthetically pleasing.

[0064] In some embodiments, the outer walls of the support foot and the rigid fixing part 100 are provided with a limiting groove 310 on one side and a limiting block 130 on the other side. The limiting block 130 can be inserted into the limiting groove 310, so that the support foot 300 and the foot plug are relatively fixed. The limiting groove 310 and the limiting block 130 cooperate with each other to prevent relative rotation between the support foot 300 and the rigid fixing part 100, thereby improving the reliability of installation.
