[0026] This utility model proposes a table edge stop.

[0027] In this embodiment of the utility model, please refer to Figures 1 to 10 The table edge stop 100 includes a main body 10, two clamps 20, and two elastic members 30. The main body 10 extends into a long strip and includes a stop surface 11 for stopping objects on the table. Part of the stop surface 11 is recessed to form a receiving groove 12. The receiving groove 12 extends along the length of the main body 10. The clamp 20 has a free end 21 and a connecting end 22; the connecting ends 22 of the two clamps 20 are rotatably provided on both sides of the receiving groove 12 in the length direction of the main body 10, so as to have a storage position placed in the receiving groove 12 and a clamping position extending out of the receiving groove 12; in the storage position, the free ends 21 of the two clamps 20 are close to each other. Two elastic elements 30 are respectively provided for two clamps 20, and the clamps 20 are elastically abutted against the inner wall surface of the receiving groove 12 by the elastic elements 30; One of the inner walls of the receiving groove 12 forms a guide platform 13 in the area corresponding to the free ends 21 of the two clamps 20. The guide platform 13 forms a guide convex arc surface 131 at the connection between the side and top surfaces of the clamps 20. The guide convex arc surface 131 is used to guide the clamps 20 to slide out of the receiving groove 12 when the clamps 20 are switched from the storage position to the clamping position.

[0028] In this embodiment, the table edge stop 100 is a multifunctional auxiliary device for preventing objects from slipping off the table. It can function as a stop to prevent books and laptops from slipping off the tabletop 50, especially when the tabletop 50 is tilted. It can also function as a bookshelf to hold books for easy reading. It is understood that this table edge stop can be used not only on the edge of a table but also as a reading stand or electronic device stand (tablet stand).

[0029] The main body 10 serves as the skeleton and support structure of the entire table edge stop 100, supporting other components. It extends in one direction, providing a continuous and stable stop surface 11 to prevent tabletop items from slipping off. The stop surface 11 on the main body 10 is the working surface that directly contacts the tabletop object, preventing the tabletop object from slipping off the edge of the tabletop 50, especially when the tabletop 50 is tilted.

[0030] A portion of the abutment surface 11 is recessed to form a receiving groove 12, which extends along the length of the main body 10. This receiving groove 12 is used to embed and store the clamp 20, assisting the tableside stop 100 in achieving multiple functions. Specifically, when the clamp 20 is retracted into the receiving groove 12, the abutment surface 11 acts as a stop to prevent objects from slipping off the table, at which point the tableside stop 100 functions as a baffle. When the clamp 20 extends out of the receiving groove 12, books can be clamped between the clamp 20 and the tabletop 50, at which point the tableside stop 100 can function as a reading shelf. The receiving groove 12 enhances the compactness of the tableside stop structure and its functional versatility.

[0031] The clamp 20 has a free end 21 and a connecting end 22. The connecting end 22 of the clamp 20 is rotatably connected to both sides of the receiving groove 12 of the main body 10, allowing the clamp 20 to flexibly switch between a storage position and a clamping position. In the storage position, the free ends 21 of the clamp 20 are close to each other and are embedded in the receiving groove 12 without interfering with the normal use of the stop surface 11; while in the clamping position, the free ends 21 of the clamp 20 extend outwards, capable of clamping books or other reading materials, thus providing convenient support. In the storage position, the free ends 21 of the two clamps 20 are close to each other. It can be understood that the two clamps 20 can be arranged sequentially along the extension direction of the receiving groove 12, or they can be partially or completely offset within the receiving groove 12.

[0032] The elastic element 30 provides continuous rebound and clamping force to the clamp 20, enabling the clamp 20 to automatically adhere tightly to the tabletop 50 for stable clamping. Simultaneously, during storage, the elastic element 30 ensures that the clamp 20 abuts against the inner wall of the receiving groove 12, preventing free swinging and collisions. The elastic element 30 can be a torsion spring, tension spring, leaf spring, or elastic rubber strip, and is not limited thereto.

[0033] One inner wall surface of the receiving groove 12 forms a guide platform 13 corresponding to the area of ​​the free ends 21 of the two clamps 20. When the user rotates the clamp 20 outward, the free end 21 will first approach the opening of the receiving groove 12. At the same time, due to the action of the elastic element 30, the clamp 20 will encounter a certain resistance when rotating outward. At this time, the convex arc surface of the guide platform 13 can contact the free end 21 of the clamp 20 or its side, playing a physical guiding role, so that the clamp 20 can smoothly slide out of the groove along a predetermined trajectory. Since the guide convex arc surface 131 is a curved transition, the clamp 20 will not form a sharp corner with the groove opening during the sliding process, nor will it generate large local frictional resistance. When the clamp 20 rotates into the receiving groove 12, its free end 21 will first contact the guide convex arc surface 131. The guide convex arc surface 131 will guide the clamp 20 to the correct angle, ensuring that the free end 21 can easily pass through the groove opening and extend out of the receiving groove 12, avoiding tilting or jamming. At the same time, the guide table 13 provides a certain support function to prevent the clamp 20 from shifting or scraping the inner wall of the receiving groove 12 during the recycling process.

[0034] In some embodiments, the height of the guide convex surface 131 relative to the receiving groove 12 gradually decreases toward the clamp 20 in the width direction of the main body 10. This design makes the guiding force on the clamp 20 more uniform during rotation, thereby improving the smoothness and stability of the clamp 20 operation.

[0035] This utility model's table edge stop 100, through the coordinated operation of the stop surface 11, clamp 20, and receiving groove 12 on the main body 10, allows the table edge stop 100 to be used as a regular stop bar and can be switched to a reading bookshelf mode as needed. The receiving groove 12 stores the clamp 20, achieving convenient function switching and a compact structure. Simultaneously, by rotating the clamp 20 and utilizing the rebound force of the elastic element 30 and the guiding effect of the guide convex arc surface 131 on the guide platform 13, the table edge stop bar can stably hold books in reading mode and smoothly complete the unfolding and retraction of the clamp 20 when switching modes, improving overall ease of use. In the retracted state, the clamp 20 is stably stored in the receiving groove 12, preventing it from shaking.

[0036] Furthermore, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 One sidewall of the receiving groove 12 includes a central region and a side region along the length of the main body 10; the central region protrudes toward the free ends 21 of the two clamps to form a guide platform 13; the side region is smoothly connected to the outer surface of the main body 10.

[0037] In this embodiment, the middle of the receiving groove 12 is located precisely at the position where the free ends 21 of the two clamps 20 are close to each other. When the clamps 20 rotate simultaneously from the storage position to the clamping position, the central guide platform 13 can simultaneously contact the free ends 21 of the two clamps 20 and provide guidance, allowing them to achieve a smooth and symmetrical sliding trajectory during extension. This symmetrical guidance can effectively avoid excessive force or jamming on one side of the clamp 20.

[0038] The smooth transition of the side area to the outer surface of the main body 10 helps reduce the resistance caused by structural abrupt changes during the unfolding or retraction of the clamp 20 in the corresponding side area, making the clamp 20 rotate more smoothly and providing a better operating feel. It can be understood that the outer surface of the main body 10 is the outer surface of the main body 10 that is connected to the inner wall of the receiving groove 12.

[0039] Furthermore, the clamp 20 includes a clamping arm 23 and a clamping head 24. The clamping arm 23 includes a stop section 231 and a bending section 232 connected to each other. The stop section 231 is connected to the elastic member 30, and the bending section 232 is connected to the clamping head 24. The stop section 231 abuts against the inner wall surface of the receiving groove 12, and the distance between the bending section 232 and the inner wall surface of the receiving groove 12 gradually increases in the direction away from the stop section 231.

[0040] In this embodiment, the clamp 20 includes a clamping arm 23 and a clamping head 24. The clamping arm 23 includes a stop section 231 and a bent section 232 connected to each other. The outer surface of the stop section 231 continuously abuts against the inner wall of the receiving groove 12 when the clamp 20 is in the retracted position, providing a stable contact surface with the receiving groove 12 and the guide table 13, and maintaining stable positioning with the help of the elastic member 30. The bent section 232 extends from the stop section 231 and bends at a certain angle, allowing the clamping arm 23 to extend around the bottom edge of the main body 10 to the table 50 and cooperate with the table 50 to clamp the book. The curvature and length of the bent section 232 can be adjusted according to different design requirements and are not limited here.

[0041] If the spacing is constant, when the clamp 20 moves from the storage position to the clamping position, the outer surface of the bent section 232 will slide along the inner wall of the receiving groove 12 (at this time, the corresponding outer side of the clamping head 24 will slide along the guide platform 13), which may cause large interface friction and jamming. As the distance gradually increases, it is equivalent to providing a wedge-shaped or conical release space, so that the more the free end 21 of the clamp 20 rotates outward, the less friction there is between the stop section 231 and the inner wall of the receiving groove 12, thereby reducing the operating resistance.

[0042] Thus, in this embodiment, the stop section 231, through close contact with the inner wall of the receiving groove 12, forms a stable limiting support in the retracted state and provides an initial guiding function when switching positions; at the same time, the design of the varying distance between the bending section 232 and the inner wall of the receiving groove 12 effectively reduces the frictional resistance during the rotation of the clamp 20. This synergistic design takes into account both the stability of the clamp 20 when retracted and the smoothness when unfolded.

[0043] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 1 The guide table 13 has a stop side 132 facing the clamp 20; the outer surface of the clamping head 24 is curved; the clamping arm 23 and / or the clamping head 24 can abut against the stop side 132 in the width direction of the main body 10.

[0044] In this embodiment, the stop side 132 of the guide table 13 provides a stable limiting effect for the clamping head 24 in the clamping position, preventing the clamping head 24 from continuing to rotate out of the receiving groove 12 due to external force or inertia, thus affecting the use of the table edge stop strip as a stop strip.

[0045] Meanwhile, the curved outer surface design of the clamping head 24 allows it to fit snugly against the side of the stop 132, reducing localized stress and wear caused by edge contact. Furthermore, this design creates sliding or rolling contact during the movement of the clamping arm 23, reducing frictional resistance.

[0046] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 1 The main body 10 also includes a stop seat 14, and the stop seat 14 and the guide platform 13 are respectively provided on both sides of the receiving groove 12 in the width direction of the main body 10; the stop seat 14 has a clearance space 141 communicating with the receiving groove 12 in the middle region in the length direction of the main body 10.

[0047] In this embodiment, the stop seat 14 allows for clear functional zoning of the table edge stop 100. The surface of the stop seat 14 facing the inside of the tabletop 50 can prevent objects from falling off the table; the receiving groove 12 provides space to store the clamp 20; the guide platform 13 guides the movement of the clamp 20 during position switching, improving the smoothness and stability of the switching, and providing stable limiting support in the clamping state. By rationally arranging the functional areas of the stop seat 14, the receiving groove 12, and the guide platform 13, the table edge stop 100 can achieve its clamping function without affecting its basic purpose as a stop bar, thus improving the compactness and practicality of the overall structure.

[0048] The clearance space 141 communicates with the receiving groove 12 and is used to provide release space for the clamp 20 at certain rotation angles, reducing interference in the later stages of the clamp 20's movement. In the clamping position, part of the clamp 20 can be placed within the clearance space 141. At the same time, the clearance space 141 provides space for the user's fingers to operate, making it convenient for the user to apply force from the clearance space 141 to grip the clamp 20.

[0049] It is understood that the stop surface 11 includes, but is not limited to, the surface of the stop seat 14 facing the inside of the tabletop 50, and may also include the top surface of the guide platform 13 (when the tabletop object is thick, the top surface of the guide platform 13 can be used to stop the tabletop object to prevent the tabletop object from falling off).

[0050] Understandably, the relative positions of the guide table 13 and the stop seat 14 can be flexibly adjusted according to actual needs. In this tabletop stop, one side of the guide table 13 can be closer to the surface of the tabletop 50 (i.e., the stop seat 14 is on the side away from the tabletop 50). Alternatively, one side of the stop seat 14 can be closer to the surface of the tabletop 50 (i.e., the guide table 13 is on the side away from the tabletop 50). In this case, it is more convenient for the user to apply force to the clamp.

[0051] Furthermore, referring to Figure 4 The stop seat 14 includes two seats 142 spaced apart along the length of the main body 10, with a clearance space 141 formed between the two seats 142; the side of the seat 142 facing the receiving groove 12 is the first side 1421, and the side of the seat 142 facing the clearance space 141 is the second side 1422; the first side 1421 is smoothly connected to the second side 1422; the distance between the second side 1422 of the two seats 142 gradually increases along the opening direction of the receiving groove 12.

[0052] In this embodiment, during the position switching process of the clamp 20, when the clamping arm 23 or the clamping head 24 contacts the base 142, the first side 1421 and the second side 1422 are smoothly connected to make the contact point transfer smoothly, avoiding jamming caused by sharp angle transition and reducing hardware wear.

[0053] The distance between the second side surfaces 1422 of the two seats 142 gradually increases along the opening direction of the receiving groove 12. Compared with the embodiment where the distance between the second side surfaces 1422 of the two seats 142 does not change along the opening direction of the receiving groove 12, this embodiment, through the design of gradually increasing spacing between the second side surfaces 1422, makes the volume of the clearance space 141 larger, thereby giving the clamp 20 more room to pass through when entering the clearance space 141, improving the convenience of the user in applying force and the smoothness of the clamp 20 position switching.

[0054] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 4 The main body 10 includes a first base 15 and a second base 16 that are detachably connected. The first base 15 is provided with a guide platform 13, and the second base 16 is provided with a stop seat 14. An installation groove 143 is formed between the first base 15 and the second base 16.

[0055] In this embodiment, the first base 15 and the second base 16 are detachably connected, facilitating installation and disassembly. Furthermore, different first bases 15 or second bases 16 can be replaced according to actual usage requirements to adapt to different sizes or types of clamp 20 components. Detachable connections include, but are not limited to, threaded connections, snap-fit ​​connections, or magnetic connections.

[0056] Furthermore, referring to Figure 4 The elastic element 30 includes a spring 31 connected to the clamp 20; the stop seat 14 has mounting grooves 143 at both ends in the length direction of the main body 10; a mounting shaft 1431 is provided on a portion of the bottom wall of the mounting groove 143; the spring 31 is sleeved on the mounting shaft 1431, and at least a portion of the spring 31 is placed in the mounting groove 143; the mounting shaft 1431 is detachably connected to the first base 15 and / or the second base 16.

[0057] In this embodiment, the mounting groove 143 accommodates a portion of the spring 31, achieving partial embedded storage of the elastic element 30, reducing exposure, and improving safety and aesthetics. Placing the mounting shaft 1431 on the bottom wall of the mounting groove 143 helps maintain the axial stability of the spring 31, preventing it from bending or shifting during use.

[0058] Clamp 20 and spring 31 are consumable parts. If the mounting shaft 1431 is fully enclosed, replacement would be difficult. However, the detachable design allows for replacement of spring 31 or clamp 20 without damaging the main body. This helps improve the convenience of maintenance and reduce maintenance costs.

[0059] In one embodiment, the table edge stop 100 further includes a connecting member 92, which includes a base plate and a connecting post protruding from the base plate. Simultaneously, the mounting portion 40 is also provided with a mounting plate 91, and the connecting post passes through the mounting plate 91, the first base 15, and the second base 16 to connect the three. Compared to connecting the three with screws, the base plate can prevent scratching the surface of the tabletop 50 when the mounting portion 40 is slidably mounted onto the tabletop 50, and also shields the through holes used during connection.

[0060] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figures 1 to 10 The table edge stop 100 includes a mounting part 40, which includes a slot 41 for engaging with the edge of the tabletop 50. The slot 41 extends along the length of the main body 10, and the opening direction of the slot 41 is consistent with the opening direction of the receiving groove 12.

[0061] In this embodiment, the mounting part 40 serves as a key component of the table edge stop 100, directly engaging with the tabletop 50 for secure fixation. Simultaneously, it provides reliable mechanical support, ensuring the main body 10 remains stable under stress during operation.

[0062] The slot 41 is used to engage with the edge of the tabletop 50, allowing the clamping mechanism to be stably attached to the edge of the tabletop 50 by means of the hook action of the slot 41. The opening direction of the slot 41 is the same as the opening direction of the receiving groove 12, which means that the working direction of the clamp 20 is on the same side as the installation direction of the slot 41, making operation convenient.

[0063] This utility model also proposes a table 200, as shown in the reference. Figures 7 to 10 The table 200 includes a tabletop 50 and an edge stop 100. The specific structure of the edge stop 100 is as described in the above embodiments. Since the table 200 adopts all the technical solutions of all the above embodiments, it has at least all the beneficial effects brought about by the technical solutions of the above embodiments, which will not be described in detail here. The edge stop 100 is detachably connected to the tabletop 50; the stop surface 11 of the edge stop 100 is arranged facing the inside of the tabletop 50.

[0064] In this embodiment, detachable connections include, but are not limited to, threaded connections, snap-fit ​​connections, or magnetic connections, which facilitate quick assembly and disassembly by users according to usage scenarios, thereby improving the flexibility and adaptability of the table 200.

[0065] Furthermore, referring to Figures 7 to 10 The table 200 also includes a connector 60 and a support 70; the connector 60 includes a crossbeam 61 and two vertical beams 62, the vertical beams 62 are located on both sides of the crossbeam 61 and rotatably connected to the tabletop 50; the support 70 is connected to the crossbeam 61 and is located off-center from the center of the crossbeam 61; the table 200 has an unfolded position in which the tabletop 50 and the vertical beams 62 are set at an angle and a folded position in which the tabletop 50 and the vertical beams 62 are set parallel to each other.

[0066] In this embodiment, the support member 70 is a key component for enhancing the overall stability of the table 200. Its position is offset from the center of the crossbeam 61, which allows part of the support member 70 to be hidden under the sofa or bed, thereby increasing the area of ​​the tabletop 50 on the bed or sofa and improving the applicability and practicality of the table 200 in a limited space.

[0067] When the connector 60 only has a crossbeam 61, the load-bearing capacity mainly relies on the bending stiffness of the crossbeam 61 itself and the strength of the joint connection. When the crossbeam 61 is subjected to external forces, it will flex, twist, and sway, which will lead to the table edge tilting and deforming. In this embodiment, by setting vertical beams 62 at both ends of the crossbeam 61, a three-dimensional structural combination is formed, thereby improving the torsional rigidity and preventing the tabletop 50 from tilting and deforming.

[0068] The table 200 has an unfolded position where the tabletop 50 and the vertical beam 62 are set at an angle, meaning that the user can adjust the angle of the tabletop 50 according to their own needs.

[0069] The tabletop 50 is arranged parallel to the vertical beam 62 in a folding position, at which point the overall volume of the table is minimized, making it easy to store and move. For example, table 200, which can be in the folding position, can be stored in a narrow space.

[0070] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the tabletop 50 includes a panel and two pivot members disposed at the bottom of the panel. Each pivot member includes a connecting block and two lugs 51 respectively disposed on both sides of the connecting block. A pivot groove is formed between the two lugs 51, and the vertical beam 62 is rotatably embedded in the pivot groove, thereby achieving a rotatable connection between the tabletop 50 and the vertical beam 62. The area of ​​the outer lug 51 is larger than that of the inner lug 51, so that the outer lug 51 can cover the inner lug 51, improving the overall aesthetics of the structure.

[0071] Furthermore, referring to Figure 8 The tabletop 50 also includes a long strip-shaped pad 93 located at the bottom, through which the pivot member is installed at the bottom of the tabletop 50. The pad 93 provides support and helps to distribute pressure, thereby improving the overall load-bearing capacity and stability of the tabletop 50.

[0072] Furthermore, referring to Figures 7 to 10 The table 200 also includes a limiting member 80 disposed on the tabletop 50; the inner wall of the slot 41 is provided with a sliding groove 42 adapted to the limiting member 80, the sliding groove 42 extends along the length direction of the main body 10 and is limited and matched with the limiting member 80 in a preset direction, the preset direction intersecting the length direction of the main body 10; a limiting block 421 is provided at one end of the sliding groove 42 in the length direction of the main body 10, and an installation port 422 is provided at the other end; the limiting member 80 can be installed from the installation port 422 to the sliding groove 42 and slide to abut against the limiting block 421.

[0073] In this embodiment, the limiting member 80 serves two purposes: firstly, it indicates the installation position of the slide groove 42; secondly, it acts as a limiting and guiding element within the slide groove 42, ensuring that the limiting member 80 moves only relative to the slide groove 42 along its extension direction. The limiting block 421 prevents the limiting member 80 from dislodging from the end of the slide groove 42 away from the mounting opening 422.

[0074] During installation, the user aligns the slide groove 42 with the limiting member 80, inserts the limiting member 80 into the slide groove 42 from the installation port 422, and slides it along the extension direction of the slide groove 42 until the limiting member 80 abuts against the limiting block 421.

[0075] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this application, and are not intended to limit them. Although this application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application.
