Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of cup holder technology, and more particularly to a cup holder with anti-tipping function. Background Technology

[0002] A cup holder is a household item, which, as the name suggests, is a rack for placing cups. Multifunctional cup holders can easily store various water cups and teacups, helping to organize the space on the desktop and in the car, making the environment more tidy and orderly. Some cup holders not only have basic storage functions, but can also be disassembled or combined into different ways of use.

[0003] However, existing anti-tipping cup holders, due to the different heights and sizes of cups, need to prevent cups from tipping over due to height differences, and also need to prevent instability and tilting, which could lead to liquid spillage. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the above problems, this application provides an anti-tipping cup holder to solve the problems of existing anti-tipping cup holders, which, due to the different heights and sizes of cups, need to prevent the cups from tipping over due to height differences, and also need to prevent unstable placement and tilting, which could lead to liquid spillage.

[0005] This application provides an anti-tipping cup holder. It includes a vertical plate, a movable rod movably sleeved at the top of the vertical plate, a first gear fixedly mounted at the bottom of the movable rod, a second gear symmetrically meshing with the outer wall of the first gear, a screw fixedly mounted on one side of the second gear, a threaded block threadedly connected to the outer wall of the screw, a connecting block fixedly mounted on one side of the threaded block, and a limit ring fixedly mounted on one side of the connecting block.

[0006] With the above solution, when the cup is placed in the limiting ring, turning the movable rod drives the first gear to rotate. The first gear meshes with the second gear, which in turn drives the screw to rotate, causing the threaded block to move threadedly on the outer wall of the screw. This causes the connecting block to move up and down, which in turn drives the limiting ring to move up and down. The position can be adjusted by moving the limiting ring up and down, which can be adjusted according to different cup heights, improving the stability of placement and preventing tipping due to height after placement.

[0007] In some embodiments, a limiting groove is provided on one side of the vertical plate, the threaded block and the connecting block are movably sleeved inside the limiting groove, a fixing rod is fixedly installed inside the limiting groove, and the connecting block is movably sleeved on the outer wall of the fixing rod.

[0008] With the above solution, when the threaded block drives the connecting block to slide in the limiting groove, the connecting block also slides up and down on the surface of the fixing rod. The fixing rod plays a role in stabilizing the up and down sliding of the connecting block.

[0009] In some embodiments, a base is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the vertical plate, and a placement groove is provided at the center of the base.

[0010] With the above solution, when the cup is placed, the bottom of the cup is embedded into the placement groove, which plays a certain role in stabilization and can prevent the cup from tilting after placement, thus preventing the liquid in the cup from overflowing.

[0011] In some embodiments, the inner wall of the limiting ring is symmetrically provided with grooves, a pad is movably sleeved inside the groove, the pad is fixed to the outer wall of the connecting rod, a washer is fixedly installed on one side of the connecting rod, a telescopic spring is fixedly installed on one side of the pad, and the other side of the telescopic spring is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the groove.

[0012] With the above solution, after the limiting ring is movably fitted onto the outer wall of the cup, the cup wall pushes the pad, causing the connecting rod and pad to slide inward in the groove. Then, the telescopic spring contracts, and through the telescopic nature of the spring, the pad can be pushed to reset and move, so that the pad fits against the cup wall, improving the stability of the cup.

[0013] In some embodiments, a bidirectional lead screw is movably sleeved at the top of the vertical plate, and a movable block is symmetrically threaded on the outer wall of the bidirectional lead screw. An installation block is fixedly installed on one side of the movable block, and the movable block is movably sleeved inside a slot, which is located on the other side of the vertical plate.

[0014] The above scheme involves rotating the bidirectional lead screw, causing two movable blocks to move threadedly on the outer wall of the lead screw, allowing the movable blocks to slide in the slots. This, in turn, drives the two mounting blocks to move up and down. The up-and-down movement of the mounting blocks provides a limiting clamp, thus enabling fixed installation. After fixed installation, the bidirectional lead screw assembly further secures the installation and prevents reverse sliding.

[0015] In some embodiments, a toothed wheel is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the bidirectional lead screw, and a toothed belt is meshed with the outer wall of the toothed wheel.

[0016] With the above scheme, when the bidirectional lead screw is turned, it also drives the toothed wheel to rotate. The toothed wheel meshes with the toothed belt, which in turn drives the toothed belt to rotate. Then, through the linkage of the toothed belt, both sides can move synchronously.

[0017] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0018] 1. By turning the movable rod, the first gear meshes with the second gear to rotate, which in turn drives the screw to rotate, causing the threaded block to move along the outer wall of the screw. This causes the connecting block to move up and down, which in turn drives the limiting ring to move up and down. The position can be adjusted by moving the limiting ring up and down, which can be adjusted according to different cup heights to improve the stability of placement and prevent tipping due to height after placement.

[0019] 2. By turning the double-acting screw, the two movable blocks move threadedly on the outer wall of the double-acting screw, causing the movable blocks to slide in the slots, and then driving the two mounting blocks to move up and down. The up and down movement of the mounting blocks can be used for limiting and clamping, thereby fixing the installation. It can be adjusted according to different installation thicknesses to improve the stability of the installation.

[0033] To facilitate understanding of the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0034] This application provides an anti-tipping cup holder in its embodiments. For example... Figures 1-5 As shown, it includes a vertical plate 1, a movable rod 2 movably sleeved at the top of the vertical plate 1, a first gear 3 fixedly installed at the bottom of the movable rod 2, a second gear 4 symmetrically meshed with the outer wall of the first gear 3, a screw 5 fixedly installed on one side of the second gear 4, a threaded block 6 threadedly connected to the outer wall of the screw 5, a connecting block 7 fixedly installed on one side of the threaded block 6, and a limit ring 8 fixedly installed on one side of the connecting block 7.

[0035] When the cup is placed in the limiting ring 8, turning the movable rod 2 drives the first gear 3 to rotate. The first gear 3 meshes with the second gear 4, which in turn drives the screw 5 to rotate. This causes the threaded block 6 to move threadedly on the outer wall of the screw 5, which in turn drives the connecting block 7 to move up and down. This also drives the limiting ring 8 to move up and down. The position can be adjusted by moving the limiting ring 8 up and down, which can be adjusted according to different cup heights to improve the stability of the cup and prevent it from tipping over due to its height.

[0036] In the technical solution of this application embodiment, a limiting groove 9 is opened on one side of the vertical plate 1, and the threaded block 6 and the connecting block 7 are movably sleeved inside the limiting groove 9. A fixing rod 10 is fixedly installed inside the limiting groove 9, and the connecting block 7 is movably sleeved on the outer wall of the fixing rod 10.

[0037] When the threaded block 6 drives the connecting block 7 to slide in the limiting groove 9, the connecting block 7 also slides up and down on the surface of the fixing rod 10. The fixing rod 10 plays a role in stabilizing the up and down sliding of the connecting block 7.

[0038] In the technical solution of this application embodiment, a base 11 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the vertical plate 1, and a placement groove 12 is opened at the center of the base 11.

[0039] When the cup is placed, the bottom of the cup is inserted into the placement groove 12, which plays a certain role in stabilization and can prevent the cup from tilting after placement, thus preventing the liquid in the cup from overflowing.

[0040] In the technical solution of this application embodiment, the inner wall of the limiting ring 8 is symmetrically provided with grooves 13, and a pad 14 is movably sleeved inside the groove 13. The pad 14 is fixed to the outer wall of the connecting rod 15. A gasket 16 is fixedly installed on one side of the connecting rod 15, and a telescopic spring 17 is fixedly installed on one side of the pad 14. The other side of the telescopic spring 17 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the groove 13.

[0041] When the limiting ring 8 is movably fitted onto the outer wall of the cup, the cup wall pushes the pad 16, causing the connecting rod 15 and the pad 14 to slide inward in the groove 13. Then, the telescopic spring 17 is contracted. Through the telescopic property of the telescopic spring 17, the pad 16 can be pushed to reset and move, so that the pad 16 fits against the cup wall, improving the stability of the cup.

[0042] In the technical solution of this application embodiment, a bidirectional lead screw 18 is movably sleeved at the top of the vertical plate 1, and a movable block 19 is symmetrically threaded on the outer wall of the bidirectional lead screw 18. An installation block 20 is fixedly installed on one side of the movable block 19, and the movable block 19 is movably sleeved inside the slot 21, which is opened on the other side of the vertical plate 1.

[0043] By turning the bidirectional lead screw 18, the two movable blocks 19 move threadedly on the outer wall of the bidirectional lead screw 18, causing the movable blocks 19 to slide in the slot 21, and then driving the two mounting blocks 20 to move up and down. The up and down movement of the mounting blocks 20 can be used for limiting and clamping, thereby achieving fixed installation. After fixed installation, the bidirectional lead screw 18 assembly is used to fix it and prevent reverse sliding.

[0044] In the technical solution of this application embodiment, a toothed wheel 22 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the bidirectional lead screw 18, and a toothed belt 23 is meshed with the outer wall of the toothed wheel 22.

[0045] When the bidirectional lead screw 18 is turned, it also drives the toothed wheel 22 to rotate. The toothed wheel 22 meshes with the toothed belt 23 to rotate, and the linkage of the toothed belt 23 allows both sides to move synchronously.
