Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of training tables, and in particular to a folding training table. Background Technology

[0002] A training table is a table used during training sessions. It is also called a training platform. Generally, there are two types based on the material: solid wood training tables and particleboard training tables. In terms of usage, they are mainly used in various locations such as conference rooms, reading rooms, libraries, and training classrooms for employee training.

[0003] In the current production process, the tabletop and legs of training tables are not assembled and fixed together. After receiving the training table, the customer then assembles and fixes the table legs and tabletop together with screws. This assembly is very troublesome for users with poor hands-on skills. Therefore, how to design a training table that does not require assembly and allows the table legs to be easily and quickly unfolded has become an urgent technical problem to be solved. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to overcome the existing technical defects, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a folding structure training table to solve the above-mentioned technical problems.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve the technical problem is as follows:

[0006] According to one aspect of this utility model, a folding training table is designed, comprising: a tabletop and two table legs. Mounting seats are fixedly connected to the bottom of the left and right ends of the tabletop. A locking element and an elastic element abutting against the locking element are laterally slidably fitted within the mounting groove of the mounting seat. Under the elastic force of the elastic element, the locking end of the locking element extends into a stepped groove on the mounting seat. The locking element is connected to a handle that drives its movement to move the locking end into the mounting groove. A folding plate is fixedly connected to the top of each table leg. A hinge fixed to one side of the folding plate rotatably engages with the mounting seat. The table leg can move between a folded state and a vertical state around the hinge. When the table leg is in a vertical state, one end of the folding plate is located in the stepped groove, and the locking end is located below the folding plate, locking the table leg. Pushing the handle drives the locking element to move, causing the locking end to move into the mounting groove, thus releasing the locking of the table leg.

[0007] Using the above technical solution, when the table legs are in a vertical position, one end of the folding plate is located in the step groove, and the locking end is located below the folding plate, locking the table legs and keeping them in a vertical support state, preventing them from folding. When the handle is pushed to drive the locking device to move, the locking end moves into the mounting groove, releasing the locking of the table legs, and then the table legs can be folded. After receiving the table, users do not need to assemble it; they can simply and quickly unfold it by rotating the table legs. The operation is simple and convenient, and the effect is good.

[0008] To better address the aforementioned technical deficiencies, this utility model also offers a superior technical solution:

[0009] In some embodiments, a limiting member is mounted on the locking member, the lower end of which extends into a strip-shaped limiting hole on the mounting base. The limiting member can restrict the lateral movement distance of the locking member.

[0010] In some embodiments, a baffle fixedly connected to the mounting base is provided above the mounting slot, the rear end of the connecting part of the handle is located above the baffle, and a stop block is provided on the baffle. When the handle is pushed to unlock, the connecting part abuts against the stop block to serve as a fulcrum.

[0011] In some embodiments, an inclined surface is provided below the end of the locking end. When the table legs are unfolded, the folding plate abuts against the inclined surface, which drives the locking end of the locking member to move into the mounting groove. When one end of the folding plate is placed in the stepped groove, the locking end of the locking member extends into the stepped groove and is located below the folding plate under the elastic force of the elastic member, locking the table legs. By providing an inclined surface, it is not necessary to push the handle to move the locking end into the mounting groove during the unfolding of the table legs, which facilitates the unfolding of the table legs.

[0012] In some embodiments, the handle is integrally formed by a handle portion, a connecting portion and a plug portion, with one end of the connecting portion connected to the handle portion located in a groove on the top of the mounting base, and the plug portion inserted into a socket on the mounting base.

[0013] In some embodiments, the handle is integrally formed by a handle portion, a connecting portion and a plug portion, the front end of the connecting portion is located in the figure-eight groove on the top of the mounting base and can swing within the figure-eight groove, and the plug portion is inserted into the socket on the mounting base.

[0014] In some embodiments, the elastic element is a compression spring, a Z-shaped spring, or a V-shaped spring.

[0015] In some embodiments, connecting plates are provided at both ends of the folding plate, and rubber sleeves are inserted into the connecting plates, with the rubber sleeves contacting the stepped groove.

[0016] In some embodiments, the two mounting bases are arranged in a left-right symmetrical structure. Attached Figure Description
