Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of telescopic mechanism technology, and in particular to a multi-position telescopic mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] A multi-position telescopic mechanism is a mechanical device that achieves changes in length or position through phased and progressive adjustment. Its core design lies in decomposing the traditional one-time telescopic process into multiple discrete positions to optimize the force transmission path and reduce the risk of deformation. This mechanism is widely used in daily life.

[0003] Existing multi-position telescopic mechanisms generally use electric or manual telescopic adjustment. When manually adjusting, the mechanism needs to be manually locked after reaching a certain height, which is inconvenient to use. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to solve the shortcomings of existing technologies that have electric or manual telescopic adjustment. When manually telescopic, the telescopic adjustment requires manual locking after reaching a certain height, which is inconvenient to use. Therefore, a multi-position telescopic mechanism is proposed.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A multi-position telescopic mechanism, comprising:

[0007] An outer tube and an inner tube, wherein the inner tube is slidably inserted into the outer tube;

[0008] A fixing plate is fixedly installed on one side of the inner wall of the inner tube and extends to the bottom of the inner tube;

[0009] A connecting shaft is fixedly installed on one side of the fixing plate;

[0010] A movable plate is rotatably fitted onto the outer wall of the connecting shaft;

[0011] A pin is fixedly installed on one side of the movable plate;

[0012] A gear slot is provided on one side of the outer tube. One side of the gear slot is a vertical plane, and the other side is a multi-layered inclined plane.

[0013] A spring is connected between the fixed plate and the movable plate.

[0014] In one possible design, a first mounting shaft is fixedly installed on one side of the fixed plate, and a second mounting shaft is fixedly installed on one side of the movable plate. The spring is a tension spring, with its two ends hooked to the first mounting shaft and the second mounting shaft, respectively.

[0015] In one possible design, the outer walls of both the first and second mounting shafts are provided with slots, and the end of the spring is hooked into the slot.

[0016] In one possible design, the outer wall of the inner tube is provided with a plurality of second slots, an inner sleeve is fitted on the inner tube, and a plurality of second blocks are fixedly installed on the inner wall of the inner sleeve, the plurality of second blocks being correspondingly engaged in the plurality of second slots.

[0017] In one possible design, the top of the outer tube is fitted with a jacket, and both sides of the outer tube are provided with first slots. Both sides of the jacket are fixedly fitted with first blocks, and the two first blocks are respectively engaged in the two first slots.

[0018] In one possible design, the outer tube has multiple fixing holes on one side and a protective cover on the other side. The protective cover contains a locking block that engages with the fixing holes.

[0019] In this application, the inner sleeve is secured by four second locking blocks corresponding to four second locking slots on the inner tube. The outer sleeve is secured by first locking blocks on both sides within the outer tube and the first locking slots. Simultaneously, the inner tube slides and extends within the outer tube. When the inner tube extends to the bottom of the outer tube, the pin at the bottom of the inner tube is located in the gear slot on one side of the outer tube and is secured to the bottom of the gear slot. As the inner tube is pulled upward, the pin slides along the inclined side of the gear slot. At the same time, the pin is stretched between the second mounting shaft and the first mounting shaft by a spring, causing the movable plate to rotate and move through the connecting shaft, thereby securing the pin at the height of the gear slot. When the inner tube rises to its highest point, the pin slides along the inclined side of the top of the gear slot and pulls the spring. The pull of the spring positions the pin on the straight side of the gear slot. Pressing down on the sliding inner tube retracts the inner tube into the outer tube. When it reaches the bottom of the gear slot, the pin is secured and supported on one side of the multi-layered inclined surface of the gear slot along the inclined side of the bottom of the gear slot.

[0020] Beneficial effects: In this utility model, the multi-position telescopic mechanism achieves automatic multi-position locking function during the telescopic process through the dynamic cooperation design of the multi-layer inclined surface of the position groove and the pin. When the inner tube telescopically extends or retracts inside the outer tube, the pin slides along the inclined surface of the position groove and automatically completes the repositioning and resetting with the help of the elastic tension of the spring. Stable locking support can be formed at the preset height without manual intervention, which completely solves the cumbersome problem of repeated operation of the locking structure required by traditional manual adjustment, and significantly improves the convenience of operation and the efficiency of use.

[0021] In this utility model, the multi-position telescopic mechanism adopts a modular snap-fit ​​structure and a spring elastic element design to ensure the stability and durability of the telescopic mechanism. The first slot forms a multi-level constraint mechanism through the snap-fit ​​between the first slot block and the outer tube, the layered limiting between the position slot and the second slot, and the elastic traction of the spring on the pin shaft. This effectively prevents accidental slippage or loosening during the telescopic process. At the same time, the design of the detachable protective cover and standardized fixing holes simplifies the maintenance process and further enhances the practicality and adaptability of the mechanism.

[0022] In this invention, the combination of mechanical linkage and elastic locking not only realizes the automatic control of the gear position during the telescopic adjustment process, but also ensures the structural reliability through multi-level safety limits and modular design, fundamentally optimizing the manual adjustment operation experience and making it widely applicable to various scenarios.
