The term “and/or” as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the related listed items.


As shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 14 , the flip-folding lift desk comprises a support base 10, a lift assembly 20, a rotation locking assembly 30 and a top assembly 40. As shown in FIG. 1, in normal use, the lift assembly 20 is adjusted to be perpendicular to the support base 10, and then the user works or plays games on the top assembly 40 in a standing or sitting posture, and the user can also adjust the angle of the top when standing or sitting. The desk can be folded when not in use. Specifically, first lower the lift assembly 20 to the lowest height, then fold the lift assembly 20 to be parallel to the support base 10, and then fold the top assembly 40 to form the final folded state as shown in FIG. 2. At this time, the desk can be placed against the wall, which greatly reduces the space occupation compared with the state in FIG. 1. The specific structure of the desk according to the embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below.


Referring to FIG. 1 or FIG. 5, the bottom surface of the support base 10 is provided with at least three support members 11, and the top surface of the support base 10 is provided with a connection seat 12 extending away from the support members 11. The function of the support members 11 is to support the entire support base 10. In use, the support base 10 is placed on a flat ground for support. At the position where the support members 11 are in contact with the ground, at least three support members 11 can form a stable support. Of course, in the embodiments of the present invention, a larger number of support members 11 can be provided. The function of the connection seat 12 is to connect with the bottom of the lift assembly 20.


The lift assembly 20 is arranged to rise and fall along its length direction, one end of the lift assembly 20 being rotatably connected to the connection seat 12, so that the lift assembly 20 can switch between two states in the length direction, including one in which the lift assembly is perpendicular to the support base 10, and the other in which the lift assembly 20 is parallel to the support base 10. The lift assembly 20 can be selected from many forms in the prior art, for example, it can be two tubular structures that fit each other, and the height can be adjusted through fasteners. Also, it can be a conventional structure that can adjust height through a pneumatic cylinder or a hydraulic cylinder. The rotatable connection between one end of the lift assembly 20 and the connection seat 12 here means that the bottom of the lift assembly 20 is hinged to the connection seat 12, and the switching between the two states can be realized by the abutting locking of the fasteners.


The rotation locking assembly 30 connects the lift assembly 20 and the top assembly 40 for adjusting the angle of the top assembly 40. In the embodiments of the present invention, in order to reduce the occupation of space, the rotation locking assembly 30, as shown in FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, comprises a fixed disk 31, a locking block 32, a rotating disk 33, a torsion spring 34, and a driving block 35. It should be noted that the number of the rotation locking assemblies 30 used may be one, or, as in the case of the embodiments of the present invention, two. The structure of one of them will be described in detail in this embodiment first.


The fixed disk 31 is fixed on the other end of the lift assembly 20 and includes a circular cavity. In the embodiment of the present invention, the fixed disk 31 is fixed on the top of the lift assembly 20, and is fixedly connected to the lift assembly 20 through fasteners. The circular cavity is arranged on the side away from side where the fixed disk 31 is fixed.


The locking block 32 is arranged in the circular cavity and movable along the radial direction of the circular cavity, and the locking block 32 is provided with teeth at one end away from the center of the circular cavity. As shown in FIG. 3, the locking block 32 can move in a radial direction close to or away from the center of the circular cavity, and realize locking and unlocking of the rotating disk 33 through the teeth on the top thereof.


The rotating disk 33 is arranged relative to the fixed disk, wherein an outer edge of the rotating disk 33 protrudes axially and extends into the circular cavity and is provided with a ring gear corresponding to the teeth on an inner wall of the outer edge. Since the ring gear of the rotating disk 33 protrudes into the circular cavity, as shown in FIG. 4, the ring gear and the teeth on the top of the locking block 32 are in the same plane. At this time, if the locking block 32 is driven to move in the direction of the ring gear until the teeth protrude into the tooth slot of the ring gear, then the ring gear cannot rotate in the circular cavity, thus realizing the locking of the rotating disk 33. Conversely, if the locking block 32 moves away from the ring gear, the ring gear is unlocked, and the rotating disk 33 and the fixed disk 31 can rotate relative to each other.


Referring to FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, the automatic reset of the locking block 32 can be realized by means of a spring. A torsion spring 34 is fixed in the circular cavity and connected to the locking block 32 for driving the locking block 32 to reset, so that the teeth at the end of the locking block 32 mesh with the ring gear. Of course, it should be noted that the locking block 32 can be moved in a variety of ways. For example, the directional movement of the driving block 35 can be realized through a linear guide rail, and the directional movement of the driving block 35 can also be realized through a sliding groove. The reset of the locking block 32 can also be achieved by means of a torsion spring 34 or a compression spring.


The driving block 35 is connected to the locking block 32 and configured to, when driven by an external force, drive the locking block 32 to disengage from the ring gear on the rotating disk 33 to release the rotating disk 33 from rotation restriction. It should be noted that there can be various ways of external drive, for example, the movement of the locking block 32 can be realized by a button communicating with the inside of the rotating disk 33 or the fixed disk 31, or by the rotation driving in this embodiment.


The top assembly 40 is connected to the rotating disk 33 on the rotation locking assembly 30, wherein the angle of the top assembly 40 on the horizontal plane is adjustable when the rotating disk 33 is unlocked. The top assembly 40 specifically comprises a board and a member connected to the board, and will not be described in detail here.


In the above embodiment, through the rotary connection between the lift assembly 20 and the support base 10, the lift assembly 20 can be vertically supported or horizontally placed, achieving the lifting function while reducing the space occupation. Through the rotary connection between the top assembly 40 and the rotation locking assembly 30, the angle of the top assembly 40 can be adjusted, which is more ergonomic and can further reduce the space occupation during folding.


On the basis of the above embodiment, as shown in FIG. 6, the support base 10 comprises a lateral support member 10a and two inclined support members 10b connected to both ends of the lateral support member 10a, the two inclined support members 10b being provided symmetrically along a midperpendicular of the lateral support member 10a, and the angle between the two inclined support members 10b and an extension line of the lateral support member 10a being an acute angle. It should be noted that the support base 10 in this embodiment is formed by bending a section steel. This structure is simple to manufacture and does not occupy floor space. In use, the area between the two inclined support members 10b is used for the placement of the user's feet, especially when sitting or standing, increasing the foot activity space and improving the comfort of use.


In the embodiment of the present invention, in order to improve the stability of the support base 10, as shown in FIG. 6, the support member 11 comprises an adjustment foot 11a disposed at the bottom of the inclined support member 10b, the adjustment foot 11a being threadedly connected to the bottom of the inclined support member 10b. If the ground is uneven, the height of the adjustment foot 11a can be adjusted by rotating the adjustment foot 11a, which is convenient and improves the adaptability of the desk to different placement environments. Meanwhile, in order to facilitate the position adjustment of the desk, as shown in FIG. 6, the support member 11 further comprises at least one runner 11b disposed at the bottom of the lateral support member 10a, with the axial direction of the runner 11b being parallel to the length direction of the lateral support member 10a. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the support member 11 is configured as two runners 11b disposed at the front end of the lateral support member 10a, and two adjustment foot 11a fixed at the bottom of the inclined support member 11, so as to realize the adjustment of the height and the overall movement of the desk. In use, the user only needs to lift the desk at one end of the adjustment foot 11a to achieve rolling contact with the ground through the runner 11b, thereby moving the desk conveniently.


In order to achieve precise control of the vertical or horizontal conversion of the lift assembly 20, as shown in FIG. 6, in the embodiment of the present invention, the connection seat 12 is fixed to the lateral support member 10a, the connection seat 12 comprises a rectangular tube 12a arranged perpendicular to a plane in which the lateral support member 10a is located, the rectangular tube 12a has an opening 12b in the direction toward the free end of the inclined support member, the opening 12b having a dimensional accuracy meeting the requirements for rotation of the lift assembly to a horizontal state. With this arrangement, when the lift assembly 20 is rotated toward the direction of the two inclined support members 10b, the lift assembly 20 can be fixed in a horizontal state of the support base 10 due to the support at the bottom of the opening 12b.


Further, in order to lock the horizontal or vertical state of the lift assembly 20, a knob 12c is screwed on the side wall of the rectangular tube 12a, the top of the knob 12c being connected to the side wall of the lift assembly 20 to lock the rotation angle of the lift assembly 20. It should be noted that the front end of the screwed knob 12c is a stud, and the rectangular tube 12a is provided with threads thereon. By rotating the knob 12c, the stud can enter and exit the rectangular tube 12a, thereby realizing fixation through abutment or perforation.


As shown in FIG. 7, in the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the two states of the lift assembly 20 are locked by means of perforation-based fixation. The side wall of the lift assembly 20 is provided with a first locking hole 20a and a second locking hole 20b corresponding to the knob 12c, the knob 12c penetrating into the first locking hole 20a when the lift assembly 20 is in a vertical state, and the knob 12c penetrating into the second locking hole 20b when the lift assembly 20 is in a horizontal state. With this structural arrangement, the desk is more reliable in use, and the situation that the angle of the lift assembly 20 changes during use will not occur.


In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, regarding the driving mode of the lift assembly 20, as shown in FIG. 8 and FIG. 6, the lift assembly 20 comprises a gas spring 21 provided in the vertical direction and a foot pedal 12d hinged on the support base 10, the foot pedal 12d being in contact with the rod of the gas spring 21 and the opening and closing of the gas spring 21 being triggered by the pedal. In this way, in use, the user only needs to step on the foot pedal 12d to unlock the gas spring 21, and then the user lifts or presses the top assembly 40 to realize height adjustment.


In the embodiment of the present invention, in order to improve the smoothness of the lift assembly 20 during adjustment and reduce noise, a double-column structure is adopted. As shown in FIG. 9 and FIG. 10, the lift assembly 20 further comprises a hollow inner column 22 and an outer column 23 jacketed on the inner column 22, one end of the gas spring 21 being connected to the inner column 22 and the other end being connected to the outer column 23. A sliding sleeve 24 is provided between the inner column 22 and the outer column 23, the sliding sleeve 24 having a needle roller 25 provided thereon, the needle roller 25 being in rolling contact with an outer wall of the inner column 22 and with an inner wall of the outer column 23. The provision of the sliding sleeve 24 reduces the gap between the inner column 22 and the outer column 23, and plays a guiding role. The provision of the needle roller 25 converts sliding friction into the rolling friction, reducing the noise and improving the sliding smoothness.


In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the rotation locking assembly is unlocked by rotation. As shown in FIG. 11, the rotation locking assembly 30 further comprises a rotating shaft 36 fixedly connected to the driving block 35, the rotating shaft 36 being rotatably provided at the axle center of the fixed disk 31 and the rotating disk 33, one end of the rotating shaft 36 protruding from the fixed disk and fixedly connected with a swing arm 37. The arrangement of the rotating shaft 36 and the swing arm 37 forms a lever structure, which can reduce the magnitude of the force when the force is applied.


As shown in FIG. 11, in the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the circular cavity of the fixed disk 31 is provided with a number of protruding positioning blocks 31a, the positioning blocks 31a being circumferentially arranged at an even interval, with a slideway 31b for the locking block 32 to slide formed between every two positioning blocks 31a. In this way, the space occupation can be reduced.


Regarding the rotation drive, specifically as shown in FIG. 12, the locking block 32 is provided with a snap groove on an end away from the teeth in the direction of its movement, the driving block 35 is provided with a snap hook on an end close to the snap groove, the snap hook being seated in the snap groove, so that when the driving block 35 is moved in the direction toward the snap groove, the locking block 32 is driven to move in the direction away from the ring gear. As shown in FIG. 12, when the driving block 35 is rotated counterclockwise, a driving force is generated in the radial direction to drive the locking block 32 toward the center because the snap hook is connected to the snap groove.


In the embodiment of the present invention, in addition to using the torsion spring 34, locking can also be achieved by rotating the driving block 35 in the reverse direction. As show in FIG. 12, the snap groove extends in the direction of the width of the locking block 32 to form a guide groove, the distance between an inner wall of the guide groove and the center of the rotating shaft 36 being less than the distance between the outermost end of the snap hook and the center of the rotating shaft 36, so that when the driving block 35 is moved in a direction away from the snap groove, the locking block 32 is driven to move in a direction towards the ring gear. It should be noted here that in the embodiment of the present invention, one end of the torsion spring 34 is fixed on the rotating disk 33 and the other end is connected to the driving block 35, so that after the driving block 35 is driven by an external force, automatic reverse rotation locking can be realized by the elastic force of the torsion spring 34.


In order to realize the force balance and ensure the locking effect, in the embodiment of the present invention, the locking blocks and the snap hooks of the driving block are uniformly distributed along the circumferential direction in a number of at least two, respectively. As shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 12, in the preferred embodiment of the present invention, three locking blocks 32 are uniformly arranged in the circumferential direction, and three snap hooks are provided on the same driving block 35. In this way, by driving the same rotating shaft 36, the synchronous driving of the three locking blocks 32 can be realized, improving the driving reliability.


As shown in FIG. 3 and FIG. 14, the top of the lift assembly 20 is provided with a mounting plate 26, the mounting plate 26 comprising a horizontal plate and two vertical plates vertically connected to both ends of the horizontal plate, the rotation locking assembly 30 being symmetrically mounted on the outer wall of the two the vertical plates. The locking effect can be improved by arranging the rotation locking assembly 30 symmetrically on the outer walls of the two vertical plates. The bottom of the top assembly 40 is provided with a connection frame 41, the connection frame 41 being arranged parallel to the vertical plate and fixedly connected to the two the rotating disks 33. In this way, the connection frame 41, the board and the mounting plate 26 constitute a channel for receiving the swing arm 37. In order to control the two swing arms 37 at the same time, in the embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 13, the two swing arms 37 are arranged inside the two vertical plates, and a handle 38 is connected between the two swing arms 37, the handle 38 being only at the front end of the top assembly 40. In this way, during specific operation, the angle of the desk can be adjusted only by lifting the handle 38. Moreover, as shown in FIG. 2, when the desk is folded, one end of the desk top assembly 40 is clamped inside the support base 10, and the handle 38 is set facing outward. When the entire desk needs to be lifted, it is only necessary to lift the handle 38, which facilitates the movement of the desk in the folded state.
