[0012] (III) Beneficial Effects
[0013] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a hanging rack for storing instruments and meters, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0014] This instrument storage suspension bracket uses a combination of a lifting column, spring, upright, gear rail, gear, and stop lever to suspend the instrument on a hook. Gravity causes the lifting column to move downwards, creating relative movement between it and the upright and gear rail. The gear meshes with the gear rail, causing it to rotate and move the stop lever closer to the hook, closing the hook and preventing it from falling. When the instrument is lifted, the lifting column moves upwards under the action of the spring, automatically opening the stop lever, facilitating one-handed operation of the suspended instrument.

[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0020] Please see Figure 1-3 A hanging rack for storing instruments and meters includes a base 1 and a suspension beam 2. The suspension beam 2 is connected to the base 1 via a height adjustment component, which is located at the top of the base 1. The suspension beam 2 is provided with multiple hook mechanisms, each hook mechanism including a lifting sliding groove 3. The lifting sliding groove 3 is formed inside the suspension beam 2. A lifting column 4 is slidably connected inside the lifting sliding groove 3. The bottom end of the lifting column 4 passes downward through the suspension beam 2 and is fixed with a hanging hook 5. A spring 6 is fixed on the inner top wall of the lifting sliding groove 3, and the other end of the spring 6 is fixed to the top of the lifting column 4. A vertical rod 7 is fixed on the inner top wall of the lifting sliding groove 3. An inner sliding groove 8 is formed inside the lifting column 4. The vertical rod 7 is inserted into the inner sliding groove 8 and slidably connected thereto. A gear rail 9 is fixed on the vertical rod 7. A gear 10 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the lifting column 4. The gear 10 passes through the lifting column 4 and meshes with the gear rail 9. A stop bar 11 is fixed on the gear 10.
[0021] In the initial state of use, spring 6 is slightly stretched, and the outer end of the stop lever is at its highest point, away from the suspension hook 5. When the instrument is suspended on the suspension hook 5, the weight of the instrument causes the suspension hook 5 to move downwards. The suspension hook 5 then causes the lifting column 4 to move downwards along the lifting sliding groove 3. At this time, spring 6 is stretched again. As the lifting column 4 moves downwards, since the upright 7 is fixed on the lifting sliding groove 3, the gear rail 9 and the lifting column 4 move relative to each other. The lifting column 4 drives the gear 10 to move, and the gear 10 meshes with the gear rail 9, causing the gear 10 to rotate. The gear 10 drives the stop lever to rotate, causing the outer end of the stop lever to move downwards and contact the suspension hook 5, thus closing the suspension hook 5. The suspension hook 5 is closed to prevent the instrument from detaching from the suspension hook 5. When it needs to be removed, the instrument is lifted upwards, and the suspension hook 5 is no longer affected by the weight of the instrument. The spring 6 contracts, and under the action of the spring 6, the lifting column 4 moves upwards along the lifting sliding groove 3. In the same way, the gear 10 drives the stop lever to rotate upwards, returning to the initial state, so that the suspension hook 5 is opened, making it easy to remove the instrument. When adjusting the height of the suspension beam 2, the foot switch 17 and the existing mature control technology are used to control the rotation of the motor 15 in both directions, thereby driving the threaded rod 14 to rotate. The suspension beam 2, which is threaded to the threaded rod 14, moves up and down along the adjusting sliding groove 13.
[0022] In practical use, it was found that in order to meet different usage heights, in this embodiment, the height adjustment component includes a main rod 12, which is fixed to the top of the base 1. An adjustment groove 13 is provided on the main rod 12, and a threaded rod 14 is rotatably connected in the adjustment groove 13. A motor 15 is installed at the top of the main rod 12, and the output end of the motor 15 passes downward through the main rod 12 and is fixed to the threaded rod 14. The suspension beam 2 is slidably connected to the adjustment groove 13, and the threaded rod 14 is threadedly connected to the suspension beam 2.
[0023] In actual use, it was found that the suspension beam 2 would shake when it moved up and down along the adjusting slide 13. In order to avoid the above problem, in this embodiment, two limiting posts 16 are symmetrically fixed in the adjusting slide 13. The limiting posts 16 pass through the suspension beam 2 and are slidably connected to it.
[0024] In actual use, it was found that in order to free up hands and facilitate the control of motor 15, in this embodiment, a foot switch 17 is installed on the top of the base 1, and the foot switch 17 is electrically connected to motor 15.
[0025] In actual use, it was found that the center of gravity of the suspension frame is high and it is prone to tipping over. In order to lower the center of gravity and make the suspension frame more stable, in this embodiment, a counterweight block 18 is fixed to the top of the base 1.
[0026] In actual use, it was found that the suspension bracket may slip on the ground. To avoid the above problem, in this embodiment, the bottom end of the base 1 is fixed with a plurality of support legs 19, and the bottom end of the support legs 19 is provided with anti-slip texture.
