It can also store the drawing paper and pen holder that are taken out.
[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: an easel that is easy to store includes a connecting plate, the connecting plate being rectangular in shape, and also includes an adjustable support component capable of rotational support and a height-adjustable placement component. The adjustable support component is connected to the bottom of the connecting plate, and the placement component is symmetrically arranged and rotatably connected to one side of the upper part of the connecting plate. The placement component includes a support rod, a support plate, and a connecting rod. The support rod is located on one side of the upper part of the connecting plate and is symmetrically arranged. One end of the support rod passes through the support rod and is rotatably located on the outer wall of the support rod. The connecting rod is located at the upper end of the symmetrical support rod.
[0007] Furthermore, the adjustable support assembly includes a stud, a support base, a screw, and a support ball. The stud is threaded through the center of the connecting plate and connected to the inside of the connecting plate. The support base is located at the bottom of the stud. The upper end of the screw is threaded through the bottom wall of the supporting plate and connected to the inside of the supporting plate. The support ball is located at the bottom of the screw.
[0008] Furthermore, the placement assembly also includes a fixing plate, a sliding rod, a limiting ring, a drag rod, and a limiting rod. The fixing plate is located on the upper and lower end faces of the support plate away from the support rod, and the fixing plates are arranged in a vertically offset manner. The sliding rod is located between the horizontally offset fixing plates. The limiting ring is slidably located on the outer wall of the sliding rod. The drag rod is located on the outer wall of the limiting ring. The limiting rod is located on the upper part of the drag rod. A fixing screw is provided through the outer wall of the limiting ring.

Detailed Implementation
[0017] like Figure 1-3As shown, an easel that is easy to store includes a connecting plate 1, which is rectangular in shape. It also includes an adjustable support assembly 2 capable of rotational support and a height-adjustable placement assembly 3. The adjustable support assembly 2 is connected to the bottom of the connecting plate 1. The placement assembly 3 is symmetrically arranged and rotatably connected to one side of the upper part of the connecting plate 1. The placement assembly 3 includes a support rod 4, a support plate 5, and a connecting rod 6. The support rod 4 is located on one side of the upper part of the connecting plate 1 and is symmetrically arranged. One end of the support rod 4 passes through the outer wall of the support rod 4 and is rotatably mounted. The connecting rod 6 is located at the upper end of the symmetrical support rod 4. The connecting plate 1 connects the symmetrical placement assembly 3 and the adjustable support assembly 2. The height of the connecting plate 1 and the upper placement assembly 3 can be adjusted according to usage requirements. An angle exists between the symmetrical and rotating support plates 5, and the angle can be adjusted to accommodate different sizes of easels, providing support when placing easels of different sizes. The support rod 4 supports the support plate 5. To support and fix the easel and adjust its height, the placement assembly 3 also includes... The support plate 5 comprises a fixed plate 11, a sliding rod 12, a limiting ring 13, a drag rod 14, and a limiting rod 15. The fixed plate 11 is located on the upper and lower end faces of the support plate 5 away from the support rod 4, and the fixed plate 11 is arranged in a vertically offset manner. The sliding rod 12 is located between the vertically offset fixed plates 11. The limiting ring 13 is slidably mounted on the outer wall of the sliding rod 12. The drag rod 14 is located on the outer wall of the limiting ring 13. The limiting rod 15 is located on the upper part of the drag rod 14. A fixing screw 16 passes through the outer wall of the limiting ring 13. The support plate 5 is located on the side away from the support rod 4. The limiting ring 13 slides on the slide rod 12. The limiting ring 13 is locked and positioned by the fixing screw 16. When placing the drawing board, the limiting ring 13 and the drag rod 14 are first slidably adjusted to a certain height and angle, and the fixing screw 16 is locked to position the drag rod 14. The limiting rod 15 on the upper part of the drag rod 14 is used to limit the bottom of the drawing board. The drawing board is inserted between adjacent limiting rods 15. One limiting rod 15 is in contact with the front bottom of the drawing board, and the other limiting rod 15 is in contact with the flipped bottom of the drawing board to clamp the bottom of the drawing board.
[0018] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in order to adjust the height of the connecting plate 1 and the placement assembly 3 on the upper part of the connecting plate 1, the adjustable support assembly 2 includes a stud 7, a support seat 8, a screw 9, and a support ball 10. The stud 7 is threaded through the center of the connecting plate 1 and connected to the inside of the connecting plate 1. The support seat 8 is located at the bottom of the stud 7. The upper end of the screw 9 is threaded through the bottom wall of the support plate 5 and connected to the inside of the support plate 5. The support ball 10 is located at the bottom of the screw 9. By rotating the stud 7 and the screw 9 respectively, the support seat 8 and the support ball 10 can be adjusted so that the support ball 10 and the support seat 8 extend, increasing the support height of the connecting plate 1. The support seat 8 and the support ball 10 can be rotated to extend to different distances, and the front and rear angles of the connecting plate 1 can also be adjusted.
[0019] To increase the stability of the connection between the symmetrical support plates 5, a connecting strip 17 is connected to the middle of the inner sidewall of the symmetrical support plates 5. One end of the connecting strip 17 is hinged to the middle of the sidewall of the support plate 5, and the other end of the symmetrical connecting strip 17 is hinged. The connecting strip 17 can be flipped in both directions between the symmetrical support plates 5, so as to support the middle of the back of the drawing board when it is placed. A storage tube 18 is provided on the upper part of the connecting plate 1. The storage tube 18 is a hollow cavity with openings at both the top and bottom. A partition 19 is provided in the middle of the inner wall of the storage tube 18. The storage tube 18 is sleeved on the outer side of the upper end of the stud 7. Inside the storage tube 18, the upper part of the partition 19 is used to store drawing paper and pen holder, and the lower part of the partition 19 covers the stud 7 to prevent the stud 7 from being exposed.
[0020] In actual use, in the initial state, the symmetrical support plates 5 are in a contracted state with their side walls close to or close to the outer wall of the storage cylinder 18. The entire device is lifted by the connecting rod 6. When in use, first rotate the support base 8 and the support ball 10 to extend the stud 7 and the screw 9, increasing the height of the connecting plate 1 and the upper placement component 3. Rotate the support plate 5 to adjust the included angle between the symmetrical support plates 5. Before placing the drawing board, first slide and adjust the limiting ring 13 and the drag rod 14 to a certain height and angle, and tighten the fixing screw 16 to achieve the positioning of the drag rod 14. The limiting rod 15 on the upper part of the drag rod 14 is used to limit the bottom of the drawing board. The drawing board is inserted between adjacent limiting rods 15. One limiting rod 15 is in contact with the front of the bottom of the drawing board, and the other limiting rod 15 is in contact with the flipped side of the bottom of the drawing board to clamp the bottom of the drawing board.
