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

[0021] like Figure 1 As shown, the shelf is arranged in parallel from top to bottom as an upper platform 4, a middle platform 5, and a lower platform 6. The lower platform 6 includes a horizontal section 61 and two vertical sections 62, which are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the horizontal section 61. A second sliding groove 63 is horizontally provided on the vertical sections 62. The three platforms can adopt the same structure.

[0022] Two lower supports 1 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the middle platform 5 and the lower platform 6, and two upper supports 2 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the upper platform 4 and the middle platform 5.

[0023] The upper support 2 includes a first upper support rod 21 and a second upper support rod 22 arranged in a cross configuration. The two upper support rods are hinged at their intersection by a fourth hinge shaft 23. The lower end of the first upper support rod 21 is hinged to the middle platform 5 via a third hinge shaft 17, and the upper end is hinged to a third sliding shaft 25, which slides within a horizontal groove on the upper platform 4. The upper end of the second upper support rod 22 is hinged to the upper platform 4 via a fifth hinge shaft 24, and the lower end is hinged to a second sliding shaft 16, which slides within a horizontal groove on the middle platform 5.

[0024] The lower support 1 includes a first lower support rod 13 and a second lower support rod 15 arranged in a cross configuration. The two lower support rods are hinged at the intersection by a second hinge shaft 14. The lower end of the first lower support rod 13 is hinged to the lower platform 6 by a first hinge shaft 12, and the upper end is hinged to a second sliding shaft 16, which is slidably connected to the middle platform 5. The upper end of the second lower support rod 15 is hinged to the middle platform 5 by a third hinge shaft 17, and the lower end is hinged to a first sliding shaft 11, which slides within the second sliding groove 63.

[0025] The adjustment mechanism 3 is installed on the bottom surface of the upper platform 4, and the adjustment mechanism 3 limits the position of the middle platform 5 and the upper platform 4.

[0026] Specifically, such as Figure 2-3 As shown, the adjustment mechanism 3 includes two connecting rods 31, a ratchet shaft 32, a ratchet 34, a pulley 35, a rack 36, a suspension 37, and a push rod 38. The two connecting rods 31 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the upper platform 4. The two ends of the ratchet shaft 32 are fixedly connected to the two connecting rods 371, and the other end of the connecting rod 31 is fixedly connected to a third sliding shaft 25. The pulley 35 is fixedly sleeved onto the ratchet shaft 32, and the ratchet 34 is rotatably connected to the ratchet shaft 32. The ratchet 34 meshes with the rack 36. The suspension 37 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the upper platform 4. The suspension 37 is an L-shaped structure consisting of a vertical part and a horizontal part. The vertical part has a first sliding groove 371, within which the pulley 35 slides. The horizontal part has a sliding rail 372, along which the bottom of the rack 36 slides. A through hole is provided in the vertical part, within which the push rod 38 slides. Push rod 38 is fixedly connected to rack 36, and push rod 38 pushes rack 36 to slide along slide rail 372 on suspension 37. Spring 33 is also provided between suspension 37 and ratchet shaft 32. Spring 33 is a tension spring, which is to make adjustment easier.

[0027] When raising the shelf, simply lift the upper platform 4. The first sliding shaft 11, the second sliding shaft 16, and the third sliding shaft 25 simultaneously slide within their respective grooves. The two support rods of the lower support 1 and the two support rods of the upper support 2 gradually rise upwards. The third sliding shaft 25 drives the ratchet shaft 32 to move together, causing the ratchet 34 to roll on the rack 36. When the shelf reaches the desired height, release the upper platform 4. Because the ratchet 34 has a self-locking mechanism, it will not rotate in the opposite direction. The ratchet 34 stops at the gear 36 and will not roll further. Therefore, the shelf will not collapse and can withstand a large load.

[0028] When lowering the height of the upper platform (5), first push the push rod 38 to make the rack 36 slide along the slide rail 372 and disengage from the ratchet 34. At this time, the first slide shaft 11, the second slide shaft 16, and the third slide shaft 25 slide simultaneously in their respective slide grooves, and the two support rods of the lower support 1 and the two support rods of the upper support 2 gradually become more inclined downwards. When the appropriate height is reached, pull the push rod 38 backwards to make the rack 36 re-engage with the ratchet 34. If the rack 36 cannot engage smoothly with the ratchet 34, fine-tune the ratchet 34 and slightly lift the upper platform 4 so that the ratchet 34 rotates one or two teeth to engage with the rack 36. Fine-tuning the ratchet 34 will not have a significant impact on the height of the shelf.

[0029] Here, to limit the movement of the rack 36 so that it can disengage from the ratchet 34 but not from the suspension 37, a limiting platform can be set on the push rod 38, or a limiting block can be set on the slide rail 372. Since this is a conventional setting, the specific structure will not be described in detail.

[0030] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model, but the scope of protection of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in this utility model, based on the technical solution and inventive concept of this utility model, should be included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
