[0029] 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.

[0030] Please see Figure 1-5 A multi-directional adjustment device for chair armrests includes: a base 1, a lifting sleeve 2 connected to the outer wall of the base 1, a spring spring 3 connected to the outer wall of the base 1, a lifting inner cylinder 4 provided at the top of the base 1, a snap-fit ​​hole 5 on the outer wall of the lifting inner cylinder 4, a movable groove 6 on the inner wall of the lifting inner cylinder 4, a locking pin 7 sleeved on the inner wall of the snap-fit ​​hole 5, a side extension wall 8 connected to the top of the lifting inner cylinder 4, a hexagonal groove 9 on the inner wall of the side extension wall 8, a hexagonal nut 10 sleeved on the inner wall of the hexagonal groove 9, and a connecting wall 11 on the inner wall of the side extension wall 8. A manual screw 12 is fitted onto the inner wall of the connecting wall 11. A lifter 13 is connected to the top of the connecting wall 11. A circular docking groove 14 is opened on the top of the lifter 13. An annular groove 15 is opened on the top of the lifter 13. A ball bearing 16 is placed on the inner wall of the annular groove 15. A hand support plate 17 is provided on the top of the lifter 13. A circular docking device 18 is connected to the bottom of the hand support plate 17. A sliding groove 19 is opened on the bottom of the hand support plate 17. A retainer 20 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the hand support plate 17. A lever 21 is provided at the bottom of the hand support plate 17. A limiter 22 is connected to the outer wall of the lever 21.

[0031] The inner wall of the lifting outer sleeve 2 is sized to match the outer wall of the lifting inner cylinder 4, and the snap-fit ​​holes 5 are simultaneously opened on the inner and outer walls of both the lifting outer sleeve 2 and the lifting inner cylinder 4. The lifting outer sleeve 2 is fitted onto the lifting inner cylinder 4, so that the snap-fit ​​holes 5 on the device are opened with the same diameter on the inner and outer walls of both the lifting outer sleeve 2 and the lifting inner cylinder 4, and multiple snap-fit ​​holes 5 are arranged at different heights on the inner wall of the lifting inner cylinder 4.

[0032] The movable groove 6 is located on one side of multiple snap-fit ​​holes 5, and the outer wall of the snap-fit ​​pin 7 is adapted to the diameter of the snap-fit ​​hole 5 and the inner wall of the movable groove 6. When the snap-fit ​​pin 7 on the device is sleeved in the inner wall of the snap-fit ​​hole 5, it can slide into the inner cavity of the movable groove 6 when moved manually. This allows the snap-fit ​​pin 7 to be manually adjusted to enter the inner wall of the snap-fit ​​hole 5 at different heights, and then the snap-fit ​​pin 7 is used again to snap the lifting outer sleeve 2 and the lifting inner cylinder 4.

[0033] The inner wall of the hexagonal groove 9 is the same shape and size as the outer wall of the hexagonal nut 10, and the inner wall of the hexagonal nut 10 is threadedly connected to the outer wall of the manual screw 12. When the manual screw 12 rotates in the inner cavity of the hexagonal nut 10, the hexagonal nut 10 remains stationary when its outer wall is limited by the hexagonal groove 9. The rotation of the manual screw 12 causes it to press the outer wall of the side extension wall 8 tightly against the outer wall of the connecting wall 11. This allows the manual screw 12 to control the tightness between the side extension wall 8 and the connecting wall 11, thereby adjusting the positioning capability of the connecting wall 11 after rotation around the manual screw 12.

[0034] The inner wall of the circular docking groove 14 is adapted to the shape and size of the outer wall of the circular docking device 18, and the hand support plate 17 rotates around the circular docking device 18 as the center point. When the hand support plate 17 on the device rotates in a plane around the circular docking device 18 as the center point, the circular docking device 18 on the device rotates in the inner cavity of the circular docking groove 14, and will not disengage from the circular docking groove 14 during rotation, thereby keeping the hand support plate 17 on the device in a movable connection with the lifting device 13, thus realizing the plane rotation function.

[0035] The top of the paddle 21 is provided with a protrusion, which slides within the inner cavity of the groove 19. When the paddle 21 is manually moved outward, it slides along the groove 19 using its protrusion, thus preventing the paddle 21 from wobbling during movement. When the paddle 21 returns to its original position, the protrusion remains within the inner cavity of the groove 19.

[0036] The outer wall of the limiter 22 is provided with meshing teeth, and the outer wall of the lifter 13 is provided with external teeth. When the limiter 22 on the device approaches the outer wall of the lifter 13, the limiter 22 on the device uses its own meshing teeth to contact the external teeth on the outer wall of the lifter 13, and the limiter 22 and the lifter 13 can be engaged and fixed, so that when the hand support plate 17 on the device rotates left and right on the top of the lifter 13, the hand support plate 17 on the device can be engaged and fixed again after rotation.

[0037] The limiter 22 has a return spring 23 connected to its outer wall, and the other ends of the two return springs 23 are connected to the outer wall of the fixture 20. The return springs 23 are positioned between the fixture 20 and the limiter 22, so that when the lever 21 is manually pulled, the limiter 22 is pulled closer to the fixture 20, and when released, the return springs 23 automatically push the limiter 22 back to its original position. This allows the limiter 22 to be adjusted manually and automatically returns to its original position when released.

[0038] The working principle is as follows: First, by setting up a structure including a spring spring 3, a lifting inner cylinder 4, a locking hole 5, a movable groove 6, and a locking pin 7, when the locking pin 7 moves from the inner cavity of the locking hole 5 to the inner cavity of the movable groove 6, the spring spring 3 automatically pushes the lifting inner cylinder 4 upward. After the height of the lifting inner cylinder 4 is increased, the locking pin 7 slides again to the inner cavity of the locking hole 5 at a different height, so that the lifting inner cylinder 4 is raised again in the inner cavity of the lifting outer sleeve 2 and then locked in place. Then, by setting up a hand support plate 17, a circular connector 18, and... The structure of the lever 21, limiter 22, and lifter 13 allows the hand plate 17 on the device to rotate at a planar angle. First, manually move the lever 21 to pull the limiter 22 away from the outer wall of the lifter 13. Then, rotate the hand plate 17 on the device around the circular docking device 18 in the inner cavity of the circular docking groove 14. After that, release the operation of the lever 21, so that the return spring 23 on the device automatically pushes the limiter 22 closer to the outer wall of the lifter 13, thereby restoring the limiter 22 on the device to the engagement state with the outer wall of the lifter 13.

[0039] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
