Detailed Implementation

[0017] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0018] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown: A flip-up tabletop, comprising: The column 1 and the outer tube 2 set at the top of the column 1, the outer tube 2 is provided with a rotating shaft 21, and the rotating shaft 21 is set horizontally; The first support surface 3 is disposed on the rotation shaft 21 and rotates with the rotation shaft 21; The limiting component 4 is disposed at one end of the length direction of the rotation axis 21. The limiting component 4 includes a first state and a second state. When the limiting component 4 is in the first state, the first support surface 3 can be flipped relative to the column 1. When the limiting component 4 is in the second state, the flipping of the first support surface 3 is restricted.

[0019] The desktop can be adjusted to a suitable angle via the rotating axis 21, improving operational comfort and efficiency. The limiting component 4 effectively controls the desktop's tilt during use, ensuring the angle is locked when needed to prevent accidental tilting that could cause items to slip or hinder use, thus enhancing safety and stability. This well-designed structure combines practicality and operability, improving the versatility and user experience of the height-adjustable desk, making it suitable for various scenarios such as office work, study, drawing, and presentations.

[0020] In this embodiment, the limiting component 4 includes: Limiting ring 41 is provided on the outer tube 2; The limiting block 42 is connected to the rotating shaft 21. The limiting block 42 is located inside the limiting ring 41 and can be close to or away from the inner wall of the limiting ring 41. When the limiting block 42 is close to and fits against the inner wall of the limiting ring 41, the limiting component 4 is in the second state. When the limiting block 42 is away from the inner wall of the limiting ring 41 and disengages from the limiting ring 41, the limiting component 4 is in the first state.

[0021] By setting up a limiting component 4 consisting of a limiting ring 41 and a limiting block 42, precise control over the angle adjustment of the flip tabletop is achieved. This structure is not only easy to operate and has a reliable mechanical connection, but also has clear limit status recognition. The fitting structure between the limiting block 42 and the limiting ring 41 makes the limiting process more stable and reliable, avoiding the loosening or misoperation problems that may occur with traditional snap-on limiting mechanisms. When the angle needs to be adjusted, simply disengage the limiting block 42 from the inner wall of the limiting ring 41; no complicated tools or multi-step operations are required, improving adjustment efficiency and user-friendliness. The overall structure is simple, the manufacturing cost is low, and it is easy to promote and apply to various adjustable-angle desktop devices.

[0022] Among them, there are several limit blocks 42, which are arranged symmetrically at the center. An adjustment mechanism 5 is arranged between the limit blocks 42, and the adjustment mechanism 5 adjusts the limit blocks 42 to move closer to or further away from the limit ring 41.

[0023] By designing the limit blocks 42 as multiple centrally symmetrically distributed structures and coordinating them with the adjustment mechanism 5 for linked control, the limiting process is not only made smoother and more uniform, avoiding the deviation or jamming of the rotating shaft 21 due to single-point force, but also significantly improving the mechanical stability and durability of the overall structure. The setting of the adjustment mechanism 5 enables the multiple limit blocks 42 to be adjusted synchronously, making user operation more convenient and ensuring more precise control of the flip angle.

[0024] As a preferred embodiment of the above, the adjusting mechanism 5 includes: An adjusting block 51 is rotatably disposed between several limiting blocks 42. Several protrusions 511 and several recesses 512 are provided on the outer diameter of the adjusting block 51. When the adjusting block 51 rotates to the position where the protrusions 511 reach the limiting blocks 42, the protrusions 511 press the limiting blocks 42 against the limiting ring 41 and fit them together. When the adjusting block 51 rotates to the position where the recesses 512 reach the limiting blocks 42, the limiting blocks 42 disengage from the limiting ring 41. Torsion spring 52, one end of which is disposed on the adjusting block 51 and the other end is fixedly disposed, to reset the adjusting block 51; Adjusting handle 53 is fixedly connected to adjusting block 51 and is used to drive adjusting block 51 to rotate.

[0025] The protrusion and recess 512 of the adjusting block 51 allows for precise control of the position of the limiting block 42, enabling quick and reliable limiting and release. By rotating the adjusting block 51 using the adjusting handle 53, users can easily switch the tabletop flipping state, making operation convenient. The torsion spring 52 provides an automatic reset function, preventing structural loosening or accidental flipping due to forgetting to reset, thus improving safety. This design achieves stable limiting without complex locking devices, combining practicality and mechanical reliability, and is suitable for scenarios with high-frequency angle adjustment requirements.

[0026] The adjusting block 51 has protrusions 511 and recesses 512 spaced apart, and the number of each is the same as that of the limiting block 42.

[0027] The inner diameter of the limiting ring 41 is provided with internal teeth, and the end of the limiting block 42 near the inner wall of the limiting ring 41 is provided with external teeth. When the limiting component 4 is in the second state, the internal teeth and external teeth cooperate with each other to restrict the relative rotation between the limiting ring 41 and the limiting block 42.

[0028] By matching the number of protrusions 511 and concave portions 512 on the adjusting block 51 with the number of limiting blocks 42, it is ensured that each limiting block 42 can simultaneously and accurately respond to the adjustment operation, thus improving the synchronization and reliability of the adjustment. The mating design of the internal and external teeth forms a mechanical locking structure when the limiting component 4 is in the second state, which can effectively prevent minor displacement or rotation caused by the force on the tabletop, significantly improving the system's anti-disturbance capability and safety in the tilted state. The above optimization scheme further improves the structural rigidity, adjustment efficiency, and user experience of the flip tabletop without significantly increasing structural complexity and manufacturing costs, making it suitable for multifunctional desktop products with high stability requirements.

[0029] It also includes a second support surface 6, which is fixedly installed on the column 1. The first support surface 3 and the second support surface 6 form a flipping platform.

[0030] The second support surface 6 is provided with a cup groove 61 and a storage plate 62.

[0031] The flip-top design consists of an adjustable first support surface 3 and a fixed second support surface 6, effectively combining dynamic adjustment and static support. Users can adjust the angle on the first support surface 3 for drawing, reading, writing, etc., while using the second support surface 6 to place water cups, stationery, or other items, preventing tilting from affecting daily placement. The included cup holder 61 effectively prevents water cups from slipping, enhancing safety; the storage board 62 provides additional storage space, improving desktop tidiness and work efficiency. The overall design caters to multiple scenarios, further optimizing the functionality and user experience of the flip-top.

[0032] like Figure 6 As shown, this embodiment also includes a height-adjustable table, comprising: The support leg 7 and the flip-up table as described above, and the column 1 are equipped with a lifting component.

[0033] This height-adjustable desk integrates a flip-up tabletop structure on top of traditional height adjustment, achieving dual functionality for both height and angle adjustment. Users can adjust the desktop height according to standing or sitting postures, or adjust the desktop to a suitable angle as needed, meeting various usage scenarios such as drawing, giving presentations, writing, and reading. The support legs 7 are stable and reliable, and the lifting components are built into the column 1, with a simple and aesthetically pleasing appearance that does not affect the overall structural harmony. The flip-up tabletop and the lifting structure work together to significantly improve the desktop's flexibility, practicality, and ergonomic adaptability.
