Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of monitor bracket technology, and in particular to a quick-release mechanism and a monitor bracket. Background Technology

[0002] Monitor stands typically include a mounting bracket and a base. The base is used to secure the monitor to a support surface, while the mounting bracket connects to the monitor. During installation, the mounting bracket is first connected to the monitor, then the base is secured to the support surface, and finally, the mounting bracket is connected to the base to complete the installation. In existing technology, the mounting bracket and base are connected by threads, making it inconvenient to remove and install the mounting bracket on the base, thus causing difficulties in assembling and disassembling the monitor. Utility Model Content

[0003] This invention aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. To this end, this invention proposes a quick-release mechanism and a monitor stand, which facilitates the assembly and disassembly of the monitor.

[0004] In a first aspect, this utility model provides a quick-release mechanism, which includes a base, a limiting block, a mounting component, and a locking component. The base has a connecting hole and a first sliding groove, the connecting hole connecting to the first sliding groove, and the axis of the connecting hole being parallel to a first direction. The limiting block is movably disposed in the connecting hole along the first direction. The mounting component has a clearance hole, and the mounting component is slidably connected to the base along a direction intersecting the first direction, and can move until the clearance hole is located on one side of the connecting hole along the first direction. The locking component is located in the first sliding groove and slidably connected to the base. The locking component can slide along a second direction to a first position and a second position, the second direction intersecting the first direction. When the locking component slides to the first position, it abuts against the limiting block and can push the limiting block to move until a portion of the limiting block extends into the clearance hole, thereby restricting the movement of the mounting component relative to the base. When the locking component moves to the second position, the limiting block can exit the clearance hole, thereby releasing the restriction on the mounting component.

[0005] The quick-release mechanism provided in the first aspect of this utility model has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0006] On the one hand, the mounting component can be moved to the side where the clearance hole is located along the first direction of the connecting hole. When the locking component slides to the first position, it can push the limiting block into the clearance hole to fix the mounting component to the base, which facilitates the installation of the mounting component. On the other hand, when the locking component moves to the second position, the limiting block can exit the clearance hole to release the fixing between the mounting component and the base, which facilitates the disassembly of the mounting component and thus facilitates the disassembly and assembly of the display.

[0007] In one embodiment of this implementation, the base is provided with a second sliding groove, and the second sliding groove and the first sliding groove are respectively located on both sides of the connecting hole along the first direction. The connecting hole connects the first sliding groove and the second sliding groove. The mounting component is located in the second sliding groove and slides in cooperation with the groove wall of the second sliding groove.

[0008] In one embodiment of this implementation, an elastic element is provided in the first slide groove. One end of the elastic element is connected to the bottom wall of the first slide groove, and the other end is connected to the locking element. The elastic element can push the locking element from the second position to the first position.

[0009] In one embodiment of this implementation, a strip-shaped hole extending in a second direction is provided on the base. The strip-shaped hole connects to the first sliding groove, and a portion of the locking member extends through the strip-shaped hole to the outside of the base for the user to push.

[0010] In one embodiment of this implementation, the first groove has a first opening located on one side of the locking member along a second direction.

[0011] In one embodiment of this implementation, the locking member includes a first component and a second component. The first component is movably disposed in a first groove along a second direction and can push the limiting block. One end of the second component is detachably connected to the first component, and the other end extends through a strip hole to the outside of the base for the user to push.

[0012] In one embodiment of this implementation, the locking member is provided with a receiving groove. When the locking member is in the second position, the receiving groove is located on one side of the connecting hole along the first direction. The limiting block can move to the point that part of the limiting block extends into the receiving groove, and the receiving groove can limit the movement distance of the limiting block.

[0013] In one embodiment of this implementation, the mounting member has a mating surface extending along a third direction, which is perpendicular to the first and second directions. The mating surface can abut against the groove wall of the second slide to restrict the rotation of the mounting member relative to the base.

[0014] In one embodiment of this implementation, the limiting block is spherical.

[0015] Secondly, the present invention provides a monitor bracket, which includes a support body and a quick-release mechanism according to any embodiment of the first aspect of the invention. The support body is used to be placed on a bearing surface, the base is mounted on the support body, and the mounting component is used to connect the monitor.

[0016] The monitor bracket provided by the second aspect of this utility model has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0017] By incorporating the quick-release mechanism described in the first aspect of this invention into the monitor bracket, the installation and removal of the monitor can be facilitated.

[0031] Additional aspects and advantages of this invention will be set forth in part in the description which follows, and in part will be obvious from the description, or may be learned by practice of the invention.

[0032] Please see Figures 1 to 4 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the three-dimensional structure of the quick-release mechanism 100 according to one embodiment of the present utility model; Figure 2 yes Figure 1 Top view of the quick-release mechanism 100; Figure 3 yes Figure 2 A cross-sectional view of the quick-release mechanism 100 along the AA direction; Figure 4 yes Figure 2A three-dimensional structural schematic diagram of the quick-release mechanism 100 in cross-sectional view along the AA direction. This utility model provides a quick-release mechanism 100, which includes a base 10, a limiting block 20, a mounting component 30, and a locking component 40. The base 10 has a connecting hole 13 and a first sliding groove 11. The connecting hole 13 connects to the first sliding groove 11, and the axis of the connecting hole 13 is parallel to the first direction. The limiting block 20 is movably disposed in the connecting hole 13 along the first direction. The mounting member 30 has a clearance hole 31. The mounting member 30 is slidably connected to the base 10 along a direction intersecting the first direction, and can move until the clearance hole 31 is located on one side of the connecting hole 13 along the first direction. The locking member 40 is located in the first sliding groove 11 and is slidably connected to the base 10. The locking member 40 can slide along a second direction to a first position and a second position. The second direction intersects the first direction. When the locking member 40 slides to the first position, it abuts against the limiting block 20 and can push the limiting block 20 to move to a part of the limiting block 20 extending into the clearance hole 31 to restrict the movement of the mounting member 30 relative to the base 10. When the locking member 40 moves to the second position, the limiting block 20 can exit the clearance hole 31 to release the restriction on the mounting member 30.

[0033] Specifically, in this embodiment, the angle between the first direction and the second direction is 90 degrees. The first direction is parallel to the Z direction, and the second direction is parallel to the Y direction. The first position and the second position are arranged at intervals along the Y direction within the first slide groove 11. The locking member 40 has a guide surface inclined to the Z direction. During the process of the locking member 40 moving along the Y direction to the first position, the guide surface can abut against the limiting block 20, causing the limiting block 20 to move relative to the locking member 40 along the guide surface. The locking member 40 also has an abutment surface 44 perpendicular to the Z direction. The abutment surface 44 is connected to the guide surface. When the locking member 40 is in the first position, the abutment surface 44 is located on one side of the connecting hole 13 along the Z direction, and the abutment surface 44 can abut against the limiting block 20. The relative sliding direction between the mounting component 30 and the base 10 forms an angle of 90 degrees with the first direction. The mounting component 30 and the base 10 can slide relative to each other along the Y direction. The axial direction of the clearance hole 31 is parallel to the Z direction, and the clearance hole 31 has a hole wall parallel to the Z direction. It should be understood that the angle between the first direction and the second direction can also be 30 degrees, 60 degrees, or 120 degrees, and the relative sliding direction between the mounting component 30 and the base 10 can also be set to form an angle of 60 degrees with the first direction.

[0034] Understandably, the guide surface is inclined in the Z direction, allowing the limiting block 20 to move relative to the locking member 40 in the Z direction during its movement along the guide surface. This allows the limiting block 20 to move until a portion of it extends into the clearance hole 31. After the limiting block 20 has moved to the point where a portion of it extends into the clearance hole 31, the locking member 40 can continue to move in the Y direction, allowing the limiting block 20 to move relative to the locking member 40 along the guide surface to the abutment surface 44. The axis of the connecting hole 13 is parallel to the Z direction, so that the connecting hole 13 has a hole wall parallel to the Z direction. When a portion of the limiting block 20 extends into the clearance hole 31, a portion of the limiting block 20 abuts against the hole wall of the clearance hole 31 parallel to the Z direction, while the other portion abuts against the hole wall of the connecting hole 13 parallel to the Z direction. This restricts the sliding of the mounting member 30 relative to the base 10 in a direction perpendicular to the Z direction.

[0035] The quick-release mechanism 100 of this utility model has two aspects. First, the mounting member 30 can be moved to the side where the clearance hole 31 is located along the first direction of the connecting hole 13. When the locking member 40 slides to the first position, it can push the limiting block 20 into the clearance hole 31 to fix the mounting member 30 to the base 10, which can facilitate the installation of the mounting member 30. Second, when the locking member 40 moves to the second position, the limiting block 20 can be withdrawn from the clearance hole 31 to release the fixing between the mounting member 30 and the base 10, which can facilitate the disassembly of the mounting member 30, thereby facilitating the disassembly and assembly of the display.

[0036] In one embodiment of this implementation, please refer to Figures 1 to 4 The base 10 has a second sliding groove 12. The second sliding groove 12 and the first sliding groove 11 are located on both sides of the connecting hole 13 along the first direction. The connecting hole 13 connects the first sliding groove 11 and the second sliding groove 12. The mounting part 30 is located in the second sliding groove 12 and slides in cooperation with the groove wall of the second sliding groove 12.

[0037] Specifically, the second slide groove 12 is located on one side of the first slide groove 11 along the Z direction. The second slide groove 12 has a second opening 121 through which the mounting component 30 can enter and exit the second slide groove 12. It can be understood that providing the second slide groove 12 can improve the fixing effect on the mounting component 30.

[0038] In one embodiment of this implementation, please refer to Figures 3 to 4 The first slide groove 11 is provided with an elastic element 50. One end of the elastic element 50 is connected to the bottom wall of the first slide groove 11, and the other end is connected to the locking element 40. The elastic element 50 can push the locking element 40 from the second position to the first position.

[0039] Specifically, the elastic element 50 is a spring, and the spring's extension and contraction direction is parallel to the Y direction. During the movement of the locking element 40 from the first position to the second position, the locking element 40 can compress the elastic element 50. It can be understood that when the locking element 40 is in the first position, the user can push the locking element 40 to overcome the elastic force of the elastic element 50 and move it to the second position. When the user releases the locking element 40, the elastic element 50 can automatically push the locking element 40 back to the first position. The elastic element 50 can stabilize the locking element 40 in the first position, thereby improving the fixing effect on the mounting element 30. This configuration improves the user experience.

[0040] In one embodiment of this implementation, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The base 10 has a strip hole 111 extending in the second direction. The strip hole 111 connects to the first slide groove 11. A portion of the locking member 40 extends through the strip hole 111 to the outside of the base 10 for the user to push.

[0041] Specifically, the strip hole 111 is located on the side of the first slide groove 11 opposite to the connecting hole 13. It can be understood that a portion of the locking member 40 extends to the outside of the base 10 through the strip hole 111, allowing the user to easily push the locking member 40, thereby improving the user experience.

[0042] In one embodiment of this implementation, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The first groove 11 has a first opening 112, which is located on one side of the locking member 40 along the second direction.

[0043] Specifically, the size of the first opening 112 is adapted to the locking member 40. It can be understood that the locking member 40 can enter the first slide groove 11 through the first opening 112. The first opening 112 facilitates the installation of the locking member 40, thereby reducing the assembly difficulty between the locking member 40 and the base 10. Furthermore, the first opening 112 exposes part of the locking member 40, allowing the user to push the portion of the locking member 40 exposed in the first opening 112, thus further facilitating the user to push the locking member 40.

[0044] In one embodiment of this implementation, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 The locking member 40 includes a first component 41 and a second component 42. The first component 41 is movably disposed in the first slide groove 11 along the second direction and can push the limiting block 20. One end of the second component 42 is detachably connected to the first component 41, and the other end extends to the outside of the base 10 through the strip hole 111 for the user to push.

[0045] Specifically, the first component 41 and the second component 42 are connected by threads. It can be understood that during the assembly process of the locking component 40 and the base 10, the first component 41 is first placed into the first slide groove 11 through the first opening 112, and then the second component 42 is inserted into the first slide groove 11 through the strip hole 111 and threadedly connected to the first component 41. This arrangement facilitates the installation of the locking component 40.

[0046] In one embodiment of this implementation, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The locking member 40 is provided with a receiving groove 43. When the locking member 40 is in the second position, the receiving groove 43 is located on one side of the connecting hole 13 along the first direction. The limiting block 20 can move to the point that part of the limiting block 20 extends into the receiving groove 43. The receiving groove 43 can limit the movement distance of the limiting block 20.

[0047] Specifically, a portion of the locking member 40 is recessed along the Z direction to form a receiving groove 43. The size of the receiving groove 43 is adapted to the limiting block 20. After the limiting block 20 extends into the receiving groove 43, it can abut against the groove wall of the receiving groove 43. The groove wall of the receiving groove 43 forms a guide surface.

[0048] Understandably, when the locking member 40 is in the first position, the limiting block 20 abuts against the abutment surface 44. At this time, the locking member 40 can move to the second position, so that the limiting block 20 moves relative to the locking member 40 along the abutment surface 44 to the guide surface, and the limiting block 20 exits the clearance hole 31 and abuts against the guide surface. The guide surface can restrict the movement of the limiting block 20 in the Z direction, thereby reducing the risk that the limiting block 20 will completely disengage from the connecting hole 13. During the process of the locking member 40 moving from the second position to the first position, the limiting block 20 can move along the guide surface and move relative to the locking member 40 in the Z direction, so that the limiting block 20 disengages from the receiving groove 43 and extends into the clearance hole 31.

[0049] In one embodiment of this implementation, please refer to Figures 1 to 4 The mounting member 30 has a mating surface 32 extending along a third direction, which is perpendicular to the first and second directions. The mating surface 32 can abut against the groove wall of the second slide groove 12 to restrict the rotation of the mounting member 30 relative to the base 10.

[0050] Specifically, the third direction is parallel to the X direction. It can be understood that the mounting component 30 can be used to connect a monitor, and by restricting the rotation of the mounting component 30 relative to the base 10 through the mating surface 32, the rotation of the monitor relative to the base 10 can be restricted, which is beneficial to improving the user experience.

[0051] In one embodiment of this implementation, the limiting block 20 is spherical.

[0052] Specifically, the guide surface formed by the groove wall of the receiving groove 43 is an arc surface adapted to the limiting block 20, and the limiting block 20 can rotate relative to the base 10 within the connecting hole 13. It is understood that the locking member 40 will rub against the limiting block 20 during its movement in the Y direction. Setting the limiting block 20 to a spherical shape allows it to rotate relative to the locking member 40 during its movement, thereby reducing friction between the limiting block 20 and the locking member 40 and improving the service life of both.

[0053] Secondly, the present invention provides a monitor bracket, which includes a support body and a quick-release mechanism 100 according to any embodiment of the first aspect of the invention. The support body is used to be placed on a bearing surface, the base 10 is mounted on the support body, and the mounting member 30 is used to connect the monitor.

[0054] Specifically, the base 10 can be installed on the support body by means of threaded connection, adhesive bonding, welding, or magnetic attraction. By incorporating the quick-release mechanism 100 from the first aspect of this utility model into the monitor bracket, the installation and removal of the monitor can be facilitated.

[0055] The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Furthermore, the embodiments of the present invention and the features thereof can be combined with each other unless otherwise specified.
