[0010] The present invention provides a support device for retrieving files from a high position in a filing cabinet, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0011] 1. This utility model fixes the open ring to the lower end of the filing cabinet, and then moves the T-shaped wheel, ladder rod and crossbar to the rear side of the filing cabinet for concealment. This does not affect normal access to the filing cabinet when it is not necessary to climb up to retrieve the documents. When it is necessary to retrieve the documents in the filing cabinet at a higher position, the T-shaped wheel is pulled to the front of the filing cabinet in the T-slot, and then the support rod is tilted so that one end lowers to touch the ground for support. Then the ladder rod is tilted against the filing cabinet, which can stably support the personnel to go up and down to retrieve the documents at a higher position. After the documents are retrieved, the T-shaped wheel is moved to the rear side of the filing cabinet for concealment.

[0012] 2. This utility model uses fasteners to fix the limiting plate and block the T-shaped groove, so that the T-shaped wheel is restricted in the T-shaped groove during use, thus preventing it from accidentally sliding out of the T-shaped groove and causing an accident.

[0019] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0020] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0021] It should be noted that all directional indications (such as up-down-left-right-forward-backward...) in the embodiments of this utility model are only used to explain the relative positional relationship and movement of each component in a certain specific posture (as shown in the figure). If the specific posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly. The connection can be a direct connection or an indirect connection.

[0022] Please see Figure 1-4 As shown, a support device for retrieving items from a high position in a filing cabinet includes an open ring 1 fitted under the bottom of the filing cabinet; the open ring 1 has T-shaped grooves 2 extending through both ends; multiple T-shaped wheels 3 are rotatably connected within the T-shaped grooves 2; a first connecting seat 4 is rotatably connected to the upper end of each T-shaped wheel 3; a ground support rod 5 is fixedly connected to the first connecting seat 4; a second connecting seat 6 is rotatably connected to the end of the ground support rod 5; a ladder rod 7 is fixedly connected to the second connecting seat 6; multiple crossbars 8 are fixedly connected at intervals to the ladder rod 7. In use, the open ring 1 is fixed to the bottom of the filing cabinet, and then the T-shaped wheels 3 are moved to lift the ladder rod 7. Ladder rod 7 and crossbar 8 are moved to the rear side of the filing cabinet for concealment, so as not to affect normal access to the filing cabinet when it is not necessary to climb up to retrieve the documents. When it is necessary to access the documents in the filing cabinet at a high position, pull the T-shaped wheel 3 to move it to the front of the filing cabinet in the T-shaped groove 2, and then tilt the support rod 5 so that one end lowers to touch the ground for support. Then, tilt the ladder rod 7 against the filing cabinet to stably support the personnel to go up and down to retrieve the documents at a high position. After the documents are retrieved, move the T-shaped wheel 3 to move the ladder rod 7 and crossbar 8 to the rear side of the filing cabinet for concealment.

[0023] The two ends of the open ring 1 are threaded with fasteners 9; the fasteners 9 are fitted with limit plates 10 corresponding to the T-groove 2. The limit plates 10 are fixed by the fasteners 9 to block the T-groove 2, so that the T-wheel 3 is restricted in the T-groove 2 during use, so that it will not accidentally slide out of the T-groove 2 and cause an accident.

[0024] The side of the open ring 1 has a through hole with a threaded connection to a bolt. By connecting the open ring 1 to the filing cabinet with the bolt, the open ring 1 can be stably fixed to the edge of the bottom shelf of the filing cabinet, resulting in high structural strength and preventing collisions, wear, and noise during daily use.

[0025] The ladder bar 7 and crossbar 8 are made of aluminum alloy round tubes, which makes them lightweight while having high structural strength and easy to process and manufacture.

[0026] When in use, the support rod 5 and the second connecting seat 6 touch the ground, which can stably support the climbing rod 7. At the same time, the lower end of the climbing rod 7 is far away from the filing cabinet, forming an acute angle with the filing cabinet. When climbing, the body can remain in an upright position, and one hand can hold the climbing rod 7 while the other hand can reach the files in the filing cabinet. It is safer to climb high and retrieve the files in the filing cabinet.

[0027] The angle between the ladder bar 7 and the filing cabinet is an acute angle, which allows the body to remain upright when climbing to the top of the filing cabinet by stepping on the horizontal bar 8. This makes it safer to hold the ladder bar 7 with one hand and take the files from the filing cabinet with the other hand when climbing to a high place to retrieve the files.
