[0021] 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.

[0022] Please see Figures 1-6This embodiment provides an embedded armrest for a stackable chair, comprising a stackable chair frame 1. Armrest frames 2 are fixedly installed on both the left and right sides of the upper end of the stackable chair frame 1. A connecting sleeve 3 is provided at the upper end of the armrest frame 2, and an armrest pad 4 is fixedly installed at the upper end of the connecting sleeve 3. A connecting lock hole 5 is opened on the front side inside the connecting sleeve 3. A movable cavity 6 is quickly formed on the front side inside the armrest frame 2. A movable block 7 is provided inside the movable cavity 6. A locking rod 8 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the movable block 7, and a return spring 9 is fixedly installed on the lower end of the movable block 7. A limit rod 10 is fixedly installed on the lower end of the movable block 7 inside the return spring 9. The lower end of the limit rod 10 is fixed... An adjusting rod 11 is installed, and an adjusting handle 12 is fixedly installed on the lower end of the adjusting rod 11 to the outside of the movable cavity 6. A connecting plate 13 is provided at the front end of the connecting sleeve 3, and an anti-collision corner pad 14 is fixedly installed at the front end of the connecting plate 13. A locking block 15 is fixedly installed on one side of the rear end of the connecting plate 13, and an installation block 16 is fixedly installed on the other side of the rear end of the connecting plate 13. A receiving groove 17 is opened inside the connecting sleeve 3 on the side of the connecting lock hole 5. A connecting post 18 is provided inside the receiving groove 17. A threaded rod 19 is fixedly installed at the lower end of the connecting post 18, and a knob 20 is fixedly installed at the lower end of the threaded rod 19 to the outside of the connecting sleeve 3.

[0023] In this embodiment, the connecting sleeve 3 can dock with the handrail frame 2 and be reinforced with a locking structure, facilitating the design of a modular embedded handrail structure that can be spliced ​​together. This modular design allows for flexible replacement of the handrail structure. Furthermore, handrail modules of different materials can be designed to adapt to different environments and individual usage habits, conveniently meeting the needs of different groups and time periods. Customers can select handrail modules specifically, and multiple modules can be provided for easy replacement according to seasonal changes (e.g., using a warm material handrail pad 4 module in winter and a cool material handrail pad 4 module in summer), allowing the material of the handrail pad 4 to flexibly adapt to individual usage habits.

[0024] Please see Figures 1-4 In this embodiment, the connecting sleeve 3 is engaged with the handrail frame 2, the upper end of the locking rod 8 extends to the outside of the movable cavity 6 and is connected to the connecting lock hole 5 by a pin, the surface of the movable block 7 is slidably connected to the movable cavity 6, the surface of the locking rod 8 is slidably connected to the movable cavity 6, the adjusting rod 11 is slidably connected to the movable cavity 6, the lower end of the return spring 9 is fixedly connected to the handrail frame 2, and a magnetic suction piece 21 is fixedly installed inside the upper end of the connecting lock hole 5, with the upper end of the locking rod 8 and the magnetic suction piece 21 fitting together.

[0025] It should be noted that pulling down the adjusting handle 12 causes the adjusting rod 11 to move the limiting rod 10 and the movable block 7 downwards (the size of the adjusting handle 12 is set within the groove structure of the armrest frame 2 so as not to affect the embedded stacking function of the stackable chair's embedded armrests). The locking rod 8 can be adjusted to retract (the limiting rod 10 can limit the retraction distance of the locking rod 8 to keep it within a suitable range). The connecting sleeve 3 can be inserted into the armrest frame 2. The return spring 9 can drive the movable block 7 to rise (the return spring 9 can be made of metal to ensure the elastic coefficient and service life). The locking rod 8 can be inserted into the connecting lock hole 5 to complete the convenient installation of the armrest module (the magnetic plate 21 can attract the locking rod 8 and work in conjunction with the locking structure).

[0026] Please see Figures 1-6 In this embodiment, both the engaging block 15 and the mounting block 16 are engaged with the connecting sleeve 3, the upper end of the connecting post 18 is engaged with the mounting block 16, the surface of the connecting post 18 is slidably connected with the receiving groove 17, and the surface of the threaded rod 19 is threadedly connected with the connecting sleeve 3.

[0027] It should be noted that the connecting plate 13 can be connected to the front interface of the connecting sleeve 3 (the left and right sides of the front end of the connecting sleeve 3 are provided with corresponding engaging slot structures, and the structure is a hidden design, which is convenient for use in some cases where the anti-collision corner pad 14 is not used). The engaging block 15 and the mounting block 16 can be inserted into the corresponding slots respectively. The knob 20 can turn the threaded rod 19, and the connecting post 18 can be tightly fitted to the mounting block 16 (the receiving groove 17 is provided with enough space, so that the connecting post 18 can be completely accommodated in the receiving groove 17 when unlocking, ensuring that the connecting post 18 is far away from the mounting block 16), thus completing the engaging and locking work and realizing the secondary installation of the anti-collision corner pad 14 (the anti-collision corner pad 14 is used to wrap the corner of the handrail frame 2, and the material is softer).

[0028] The working principle of the above embodiments is as follows:

[0029] In use, select the appropriate handrail module, pull down the adjusting handle 12, so that the adjusting rod 11 drives the limiting rod 10 and the movable block 7 to move downward, adjust and retract the locking rod 8, and then easily insert the connecting sleeve 3 into the handrail frame 2 to complete the initial locking connection. Then release the adjusting handle 12, and use the return spring 9 to drive the movable block 7 to rise, so that the locking rod 8 is inserted into the connecting lock hole 5, completing the convenient installation of the handrail module. By connecting the connecting plate 13 and the front interface of the connecting sleeve 3, the locking block 15 and the mounting block 16 are respectively inserted into the corresponding holes and slots. With the help of the knob 20, turn the threaded rod 19 to easily drive the connecting column 18 to fit tightly against the mounting block 16, complete the locking work, and realize the secondary installation of the anti-collision corner pad 14.
