DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0050] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present disclosure more clear, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present disclosure will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present disclosure. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present disclosure, but not all of them. Generally, the components of the embodiments of the present disclosure described and shown in the drawings herein can be arranged and designed in various different configurations.

[0051] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present disclosure provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the present disclosure as claimed, but merely represents selected embodiments of the present disclosure. All other embodiments derived by persons of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present disclosure without creative effort shall fall within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

[0052] It should be noted that similar reference numerals and letters denote similar items in the following drawings, and therefore, once an item is defined in one drawing, it does not need to be further defined or explained in subsequent drawings.

[0053] In the description of the present disclosure, it should be noted that if the terms "center", "up", "down", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "inside", "outside" and the like appear, the orientation or position relationship indicated is based on the orientation or position relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, or is the orientation or position relationship in which the invented product is usually placed when used.

[0054] In addition, the terms "first", "second", "third", etc., if used, are merely used to distinguish and describe, and should not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0055] Furthermore, the use of terms such as "horizontal," "vertical," and "overhanging" does not necessarily imply that the component must be absolutely horizontal or overhanging, but rather that it can be slightly tilted. For example, "horizontal" simply means that its direction is more horizontal than "vertical," and does not mean that the structure must be completely horizontal, but rather that it can be slightly tilted.

[0056] It should also be noted that, in the description of this disclosure, unless otherwise expressly specified or limited, the terms "disposed," "installed," "connected," and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, they can refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integral connections; mechanical connections or electrical connections; direct connections or indirect connections through an intermediate medium; and internal connections between two components. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in this disclosure based on the specific circumstances.

[0057] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the features in the embodiments of the present disclosure may be combined with each other.

[0058] Please refer to Figures 1 and 2. This embodiment provides a folding table, which includes a folding table top 1 and a plurality of foot rods 2 that support the folding table top 1. The foot rods 2 are detachably connected to the table top 1. The table top 1 includes a plurality of panels 10 that are movably connected in sequence from left to right. The movably connected method includes but is not limited to a rotational connection or a movably connected via a connecting rope. The plurality of panels 10 have an unfolded state in which they are spread out from each other (see Figure 1) and a folded state in which they are folded into each other (see Figure 2). Thus, when the folding table needs to be stored, the foot rods 2 are removed from the folding table top 1, and the plurality of panels 10 of the folding table top 1 are rotated and folded to present a folded state. When the plurality of panels 10 of the folding table top 1 are unfolded to each other, the plurality of panels 10 are flexible as a whole due to the movably connected relationship, and are prone to bending, causing the entire folding table to be unstable when unfolded. Based on this, the folding table provided in this embodiment further includes two groups of support devices 13 for supporting the panel 10 so that it can be stably unfolded. The structures of the first group of support devices 132 and the second group of support devices 133 are the same, so only one group of support devices is used as an example for detailed description.

[0059] The panels 10 have a front side 101 and a rear side 102 when in the unfolded state. The "front side" here includes not only the leftmost panel, i.e., the front panel, but also some front side panels immediately following it. The "rear side" here includes not only the rightmost panel, i.e., the rear panel, but also some rear side panels immediately preceding it. Please refer to Figures 3 to 6. The support device 13 includes a first connection position 5, a second connection position 6, and a strut 3. The first connection position 5 is provided at the front side 101, and the second connection position 6 is provided at the rear side 102. The strut 3 extends in the left-right direction. One end of the strut 3 is movably connected to the first connection position 5, and the other end of the strut 3 is movably connected to the second connection position 6. The movable connection here includes but is not limited to a detachable connection and a rotating connection. The detachable connection method includes but is not limited to plug-in, threaded connection, lock connection, etc. The support rod 3 has a supporting state connected to the second connection position 6 and a storage state allowing the panel 10 to be folded. In this way, when the support rod 3 is in the supporting state, the support rod 3 is connected between the front side 101 and the rear side 102. The support rod 3 plays a supporting role, which improves the stability and strength of the unfolded panel 10 and avoids bending and deformation of the panel 10. When the folding table 1 needs to be folded, the support rod 3 is first removed from the second connection position 6. The end of the support rod 3 connected to the first connection position 5 can be disassembled or rotated 90° to ensure the folding and storage of the panel 10. In this embodiment, the support rod 3 is rotatably connected to the first connection position 5. When folding the panel 10, it is rotated to a position parallel to the front side 101. This design makes the folding and storage of the panel 10 more convenient and quick.

[0060] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the support device 13 further includes a gap adjustment assembly 14 disposed between the support rod 3 and the second connection point 6. The gap adjustment assembly 14 is configured to tighten the support rod 3 and the second connection point 6 in the left-right direction of the table top, thereby eliminating or reducing the gap between the support rod 3 and the second connection point 6 in the left-right direction of the table top. By eliminating or reducing the gap between the support rod 3 and the connection point, the stability of the structure can be enhanced. This makes the table or other equipment more rigid and reduces any shaking or instability that may occur during use. Furthermore, reducing the gap can prevent objects from accidentally slipping or being accidentally trapped in the gap.

[0061] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the support rod 3 includes a first rod 31 and a second rod 32. The relative length between the first rod 31 and the second rod 32 is adjustable. The first rod 31 is rotatably connected to the first connection point 5, and the second rod 32 is plug-connected or snap-connected to the second connection point 6. In this way, after the panel 10 is folded, the length of the support rod 3 can be adjusted to reduce the storage volume. In addition, when the panel 10 is unfolded, the length of the support rod 3 between the first connection point 5 and the second connection point 6 can be adjusted to eliminate or reduce the connection gap between the support rod 3 and the first connection point 5 and the second connection point 6. Specifically, the first rod 31 and the second rod 32 are sleeved together, and the support device 13 further includes a gap adjustment assembly 14 disposed between the first rod 31 and the second rod 32. The gap adjustment assembly 14 is used to reduce or eliminate the gap between the support rod 3 and the first connection point 5 and the second connection point 6. In this way, by adjusting the length of the support rod 3, the support rod 3 is tightly connected to the first connection point 5 and the second connection point 6, so that the flexible panel 10 forms a fixed flat plate, eliminating the connection gap between the support rod 3 and the table top 1, and increasing the firmness and stability of the entire folding table top 1. In some specific embodiments, the gap adjustment assembly 14 includes a first adjustment portion 7 disposed on the first rod 31 and a second adjustment portion 15 disposed on the second rod 32. The first adjustment portion 7 and the second adjustment portion 15 cooperate in transmission to extend the second rod 32 away from the first rod 31 by a predetermined distance, thereby lengthening the length of the support rod 3 between the first connection point 5 and the second connection point 6, thereby eliminating / reducing the gap between the support rod 3 and the first connection point 5 and the second connection point 6.

[0062] The structures of the first adjusting portion 7 and the second adjusting portion 15 include but are not limited to adopting threaded connection, cam connection, gear connection and bevel matching to adjust the extension length of the second rod 32 compared to the first rod 31.

[0063] In some examples, the first adjustment portion 7 includes a first thread 319 provided on the first rod body 31, and the second adjustment portion 15 includes a second thread 329 provided on the second rod body 32. The first thread 319 and the second thread 329 are threadedly connected, and the second rod body 32 is driven to perform linear displacement through thread transmission.

[0064] In other examples, the first rod body 31 is a hollow tube body 311, the second rod body 32 is rotatably arranged in the first rod body 31, the first adjustment part 7 has a first driving surface 75, and the second adjustment part 15 has a second driving surface 155 that cooperates with the first driving surface 75. At least one of the first driving surface 75 and the second driving surface 155 is a driving inclined surface. The first driving surface 75 and the second driving surface 155 drive and cooperate to drive the support rod 3 to stretch so that it is tightly pressed between the first connection position 5 and the second connection position 6. In this embodiment, the first adjustment portion 7 includes a guide groove 71 formed on the first rod body 31 and a locking groove 72 connected to the guide groove 71. The second adjustment portion 15 includes a locking block 8 connected to the second rod body 32. The guide groove 71 is a bevel groove. The locking block 8 cooperates with the bevel of the guide groove 71 to drive the rotating second rod body 32 to perform a linear displacement of a predetermined distance. At this time, the support rod 3 is tightly pressed between the first connection position 5 and the second connection position 6, and the locking block 8 slides into the locking groove 72 to lock it. Please refer to Figure 7. When the gap adjustment assembly 14 is in the unlocked state, the locking block 8 is located in the hollow tube 311 so that it can rotate freely. The locking block 8 rotates along the bevel of the guide groove 71 to the locking groove 72 to switch to the locked state. Please refer to Figure 8. The locking block 8 is locked in the locking groove 7. Furthermore, the second rod body 32 is provided with an operating portion lever 321 to drive the second rod body 32 to rotate, and then the locking block 8 thereon is linearly displaced along the guide groove 71, and finally the second rod body 32 is extended by a predetermined distance, and the two ends of the overall support rod 3 are tightened against the first connection position 5 and the second connection position 6.

[0065] Optionally, the supporting device 13 includes a first connecting position 5 connected to the front side 101 and a second connecting position 6 connected to the rear side. The first rod body is rotatably connected to the first connecting position 5 through a rotating shaft 51, and a plug-in tube 61 is formed on the second connecting position 6 for the end of the second rod body 32 to be plugged in. In this way, there is a connection gap between the first rod body 31 and the rotating shaft 51, and there is a plug-in gap between the second rod body 32 and the plug-in tube 6. The gap adjustment assembly 14 provided in this embodiment eliminates this part of the gap, thereby enhancing the stability of the folding table panel 1.

[0066] In addition, the first connection position 5 and the second connection position 17 are respectively formed with a first plug hole 52 and a second plug hole 62 for plugging the leg rod 6. Therefore, in some examples, the folding table includes a first support device 132 and a second support device 133 connected to the front and rear sides of the table top, the first connection position 5 and the second connection position 6 of the first support device 132 are respectively formed with a first plug hole 52 and a second plug hole 62, and the first connection seat and the second connection seat of the second support device 133 are respectively formed with a third plug hole 54 and a fourth plug hole 64, and the first plug hole 52, the second plug hole 62, the third plug hole 54 and the fourth plug hole 64 are respectively detachably plugged into the leg rod 2; therefore, the folding table provided in this embodiment completes the storage and assembly of the leg rod 2, the support rod 3 and the panel 10 through four connection seats, simplifying the installation steps and storage process.

[0067] In this embodiment, the first rod 31 and the second rod 32 cooperate with each other through a stop ring 9 to limit the movement of the second rod 32 in the first rod 31 and prevent the second rod 32 from escaping from the first rod 31 .

[0068] Specifically, the panels are rectangular in the unfolded state, and when the shortest length of the strut is that when the second rod is retracted to the deepest part of the first rod, the length of the entire strut is no greater than the width of the panels in the unfolded state. The "width" here refers to the length of the short side perpendicular to the length direction of the rectangular panel in the unfolded state. In this way, the horizontal length of the entire panel will not be too long when folded from left to right.

[0069] Optionally, the foot bar 2 is connected to the table top via an elastic rope to prevent the foot bar from being lost.

[0070] Referring to Figure 13, the folding table also includes a fixing part 11 and an adapter 12. The fixing part 11 is installed on the folding table board 1, and one end of the adapter 12 is detachably connected to the fixing part 11, and the field section of the adapter 12 is detachably connected or fixedly connected to the foot rod 2.

[0071] It is worth noting that the above-mentioned detachable connection methods include but are not limited to threaded connection, snap connection and detachable connection, and the specific connection method is not limited.

[0072] Referring to Figure 14, the fixing member 11 can be provided with a tapered hole 111, and the adapter 12 is formed with a tapered head 121 at one end close to the fixing member 11. The tapered head 121 can be detachably connected to the tapered hole 111. Through the cooperation of the tapered head 121 and the tapered hole 111, the connection stability between the fixing member 11 and the adapter 12 can be made better, thereby avoiding the existence of a gap that makes the entire folding table easy to shake.

[0073] In addition, the inner wall of the tapered hole 111 can be provided with an internal thread, and the outer wall of the tapered head 121 can be provided with an external thread. The tapered hole 111 and the tapered head 121 are threadedly connected, so that the two can be tightened during the assembly process, thereby preventing the two from easily detaching.

[0074] 15 , a protrusion 122 may be formed on the side wall of the adapter 12 close to the fixing member 11 . The fixing member 11 is provided with a receiving hole 112 . A sliding groove 113 is formed on the side wall of the receiving hole 112 . The protrusion 122 cooperates with the sliding groove 113 .

[0075] During assembly, the end of the adapter 12 can be placed into the receiving hole 112 while the protrusion 122 is placed into the slide groove 133, thereby improving the relative position stability of the adapter 12 and the fixing member 11. It is worth noting that the receiving hole 112 can also be tapered, and the end of the adapter 12 that is received in the receiving hole 112 can also be tapered.

[0076] Furthermore, the chute 113 may be spiral-shaped, so that the protrusion 122 can slide along the chute 113 under the spiral motion of the adapter 12. Alternatively, the chute 113 may include a first section and a second section arranged at an angle, with the extension direction of the first section being consistent with the opening direction of the accommodating hole 112. It can be understood that during assembly, the protrusion 122 can slide linearly in the first section, and after reaching the end of the first end, it can turn and slide into the second section. The bending of the first and second sections can prevent the adapter 12 from being easily separated from the fixing member 11.
