Any embodiment described in this disclosure as "exemplary" is not necessarily to be construed as preferred or advantageous over other embodiments. The following description is given to enable any person skilled in the art to implement and use the present disclosure. In the following description, details are listed for the purpose of explanation. It should be understood that one of ordinary skill in the art will recognize that the present disclosure can be implemented without these specific details. In other instances, well-known structures and processes are not elaborated in detail to avoid obscuring the description of the present disclosure with unnecessary details. Therefore, the present disclosure is not intended to be limited to the embodiments shown, but is to be consistent with the widest scope consistent with the principles and features disclosed herein.

[0031] As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 , on the one hand, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a TV base 100 , which includes two supports 101 and can be used for display tables of different lengths, and has good adaptability and convenience.

[0032] When the TV base 100 is used for a seat installation, the two supports 101 can be symmetrically arranged at the bottom of the TV host 200 and placed horizontally on the display table, respectively, to achieve reliable support for the TV host 200, so that the TV host 200 can be installed on the display table through the two supports 101.

[0033] As shown in Figure 3, each support 101 includes a connecting structure 1 and a supporting foot 2, and the connecting structure 1 is configured to connect the TV host 200 and the supporting foot 2. Here, the supporting foot 2 can rotate around a vertical axis to change the distance between the supporting feet 2 of the two supports 101.

[0034] When the placement table is long, the supporting foot 2 can be rotated to the side of the connecting structure 1 away from the other support 101, so that the supporting foot 2 is relatively far away from the supporting foot 2 of the other support 101, thereby making the supporting feet 2 of the two supports 101 at a position with a larger distance, for example, forming a normal position relationship as shown in Figure 1, thereby ensuring that the TV base 100 can be matched and placed on a placement table with a larger length; and when the placement table is short, the supporting foot 2 can be rotated to the side of the connecting structure 1 close to the other support 101, so that the supporting foot 2 is relatively close to the supporting foot 2 of the other support 101, thereby making the supporting feet 2 of the two supports 101 at a position with a smaller distance, for example, forming a reverse position relationship as shown in Figure 2, thereby ensuring that the TV base 100 can be matched and placed on a placement table with a smaller length, without exceeding the placement table or only slightly exceeding the placement table.

[0035] Compared with the related art, the TV base 100 provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure has a supporting foot 2 that can be rotated and adjusted around a vertical axis. The distance between the supporting feet 2 of the two supports 101 can be adaptively adjusted according to the length of the placement table, so that the supporting feet 2 of the two supports 101 can be adjusted to the range of the placement table, will not exceed the placement table or only slightly exceed the placement table, thereby ensuring that the TV base 100 can be reliably placed on placement tables of different lengths; since the TV base 100 has an adjustable placement posture, the TV base 100 can be used for placement tables of different lengths, and has better adaptability and convenience.

[0036] The structure of the connection structure 1 can be determined according to actual needs and is not limited in the embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown in Figures 4 to 7, in some embodiments, the connection structure 1 may include an upper end cover assembly 11, a lower end cover assembly 12, and a connecting column 13. The upper end cover assembly 11 is configured to be connected to the TV host 200, the lower end cover assembly 12 is fixedly connected to the support base 2, and the connecting column 13 is fixedly connected to the upper end cover assembly 11 at one end and slidably connected to the lower end cover assembly 12 at the other end.

[0037] Here, the connecting column 13 extends in the vertical direction, and the lower end cover assembly 12 can be slidably engaged with or separated from the upper end cover assembly 11 along the connecting column 13, so that the lower end cover assembly 12 can be slidably engaged with or separated from the upper end cover assembly 11 in the vertical direction. When the upper end cover assembly 11 and the lower end cover assembly 12 are engaged, the upper end cover assembly 11 prevents the lower end cover assembly 12 from rotating relative to each other, and at this time, the support base 2 cannot rotate around the vertical axis; and when the upper end cover assembly 11 and the lower end cover assembly 12 are separated, the upper end cover assembly 11 no longer exerts a limiting effect on the lower end cover assembly 12, and at this time, the lower end cover assembly 12 can rotate around the connecting column 13, and accordingly drive the support base 2 to rotate around the vertical axis.

[0038] By the above arrangement, as shown in FIG6 , when it is necessary to adaptively adjust the placement position of the TV base 100 according to the length of the placement table, the lower end cover assembly 12 can be slidably separated from the upper end cover assembly 11 along the connecting column 13 by pulling the supporting foot 2 downward, so that the lower end cover assembly 12 can rotate around the connecting column 13, and then the lower end cover assembly 12 drives the supporting foot 2 to rotate around the vertical axis, thereby changing the distance between the supporting feet 2 of the two supports 101; as shown in FIG7 , after adjustment, the lower end cover assembly 12 can be slidably engaged with the upper end cover assembly 11 along the connecting column 13, and the upper end cover assembly 11 is used to prevent the lower end cover assembly 12 from rotating relative to each other, so that the supporting foot 2 can be reliably maintained in the adjusted position, thereby achieving reliable support for the TV host 200. In this way, the user can conveniently adjust the placement position of the TV base 100, making the TV base 100 more convenient to use.

[0039] As shown in Figures 4 to 7, in some examples, the connection structure 1 may include a spring 14, which is sleeved on the connection column 13. The connection column 13 has a flange portion 131 at one end away from the upper end cover assembly 11. One end of the spring 14 abuts against the flange portion 131, while the other end abuts against the lower end cover assembly 12. The spring 14 elastically deforms to maintain the upper end cover assembly 11 and the lower end cover assembly 12 in engagement. When it is necessary to adaptively adjust the placement position of the TV base 100 according to the length of the placement table, a driving force can be applied to the lower end cover assembly 12, so that the lower end cover assembly 12 can overcome the elastic force of the spring 14 and then slide along the connecting column 13 to separate from the upper end cover assembly 11; and after the adjustment is in place, the driving force applied to the lower end cover assembly 12 can be removed, and the spring 14 is reset to make the lower end cover assembly 12 slide along the connecting column 13 to engage with the upper end cover assembly 11, and thereafter the elastic force of the spring 14 is used to keep the upper end cover assembly 11 and the lower end cover assembly 12 engaged, so that the support base 2 can be reliably maintained in the adjusted position.

[0040] The structure of the upper end cover assembly 11 can be determined according to actual needs, and the embodiments of the present disclosure do not limit this. In some examples, the upper end cover assembly 11 may include a first metal insert 111 and a first injection-molded end cover 112 that wraps the first metal insert 111, and the connecting column 13 and the first metal insert 111 are riveted. Here, the first metal insert 111 and the first injection-molded end cover 112 can be made by a metal insert injection molding process; specifically, the first metal insert 111 and the connecting column 13 can be riveted first, and then the first injection-molded end cover 112 can be injection-molded on the surface of the first metal insert 111 to form an insert injection molding structure in which the first injection-molded end cover 112 wraps the first metal insert 111. By setting as above, the first metal insert 111 can be used to locally reinforce the first injection-molded end cover 112, saving the required amount of metal material, thereby reducing the material cost of the upper end cover assembly 11.

[0041] For example, the upper end cap assembly 11 may be provided with a through-hole. The through-hole extends through the first metal insert 111 and the first injection-molded end cap 112. A threaded fastener, such as a first connecting bolt 3, passes through the through-hole and is threadedly connected to the television host 200. With this arrangement, the threaded connection structure 1 can securely secure the upper end cap assembly 11 to the television host 200.

[0042] For example, the first injection molded end cap 112 may be provided with a connecting boss 1121, which is configured to engage and position with the TV host 200. Here, a connecting recess may be provided at the bottom of the TV host 200, and the connecting boss 1121 may be embedded in the connecting recess, so that the upper end cap assembly 11 and the TV host 200 can be quickly positioned and assembled.

[0043] The structure of the lower end cover assembly 12 can be determined according to actual needs, and the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited to this. In some examples, the lower end cover assembly 12 may include a second metal insert 121, a second injection molded end cover 122, and a connecting stud 123. The second injection molded end cover 122 wraps the second metal insert 121, and the connecting stud 123 fixedly connects the second metal insert 121 and the support foot 2. Here, the second metal insert 121 and the second injection molded end cover 122 can be manufactured by a metal insert injection molding process; specifically, the second metal insert 121 and the connecting stud 123 can be riveted first, and then the second injection molded end cover 122 can be injection molded on the surface of the second metal insert 121 to form an insert injection molding structure in which the second injection molded end cover 122 wraps the second metal insert 121. By setting as above, the second metal insert 121 can be used to locally reinforce the second injection molded end cover 122, saving the required amount of metal material, thereby reducing the material cost of the upper end cover assembly 11.

[0044] For example, one end of the connecting stud 123 can be riveted to the second metal insert 121, while the other end can be provided with a threaded connection hole 1231. The support foot 2 is provided with a connecting through-hole 211, and the connecting through-hole 211 and the threaded connection hole 1231 are correspondingly arranged. A threaded fastener, such as the second connecting bolt 4, passes through the connecting through-hole 211 and is threadedly connected to the threaded connection hole 1231. With the above arrangement, the threaded connection structure 1 can achieve reliable fixation between the lower end cover assembly 12 and the support foot 2.

[0045] The structure of the support base 2 can be determined according to actual needs, and the embodiments of the present disclosure do not limit this. In some embodiments, the support base 2 may include a connecting support portion 21 and two supporting legs 22, wherein the connecting support portion 21 is connected to the connecting structure 1, and the two supporting legs 22 are arranged at opposite ends of the connecting support portion 21, and the two supporting legs 22 are perpendicular to each other or inclined at an angle. In this way, the two supporting legs 22 can be supported at an angle at both ends of the connecting support portion 21 and respectively contact the placement table, thereby reliably supporting the TV host 200 through the connecting support portion 21 and the connecting structure 1, thereby increasing the reliability and stability of the seat installation method.

[0046] On the other hand, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a television, which includes a television host 200 and a television base 100 provided in any of the above embodiments, wherein the television base 100 is configured to support the television host 200 .

Specific examples are used herein to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of the present disclosure. The description of the above embodiments is only used to help understand the method and core ideas of the present disclosure. At the same time, for those skilled in the art, according to the ideas of the present disclosure, there may be changes in the specific implementation methods and application scopes. In summary, the contents of this specification should not be understood as limiting the present disclosure.
