Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present application relates to a technical field of a height-adjustable table, and particularly to a height-adjustable table.

BACKGROUND ART

With the progress of science and technology, in order to meet different requirements of users, the use of the height-adjustable table is becoming more and more common. When a control box of the height-adjustable table is installed to a table plate, the control box is fixedly connected to the table plate usually by a screw. When the control box needs to be installed or removed, a tool is needed to remove the screw. Therefore, the operation is inconvenient and the installation efficiency is low.

A known retaining clip structure for fixing the control box of the height-adjustable table has a base plate configured for being matched with the control box of the height-adjustable table and supporting the control box of the height-adjustable table upward. Two ends of the base plate are separately provided with a wing plate configured to be matched with two support beams of the height-adjustable table and closely attached to the surfaces of the two support beams. Ends of each of the wing plates are provided with a folded edge configured to be snapped into a gap between a table plate and support beams of the height-adjustable table. By the retaining clip structure, the control box of the height-adjustable table can be more conveniently installed to the bottom surface of the table plate of the height-adjustable table and positioned between the two support beams of the height-adjustable table, and a screw and a professional tool are not required during the whole installing process.

However, during a using process of the retaining clip structure, the control box is putted on the base plate, and then the base plate is lifted and the folded edges of the two ends of the base plate are inserted into a gap between the table plate and the support beams. The base plate on which the control box is placed is suspended only by a friction between the folded edges, the table plate and the support beams. If the weight of the control box is greater than the friction, the control box and the base plate will easily fall off between the table plate and the support beams, thereby resulting insufficient connection.

Referring to FIGS. 1-2, a height-adjustable table disclosed in the present application includes a table plate 1. In some embodiments, the table plate 1 is configured as rectangle shape. Table legs 2 are fixedly connected to four corners at a lower surface of the table plate 1, respectively, and the connection way can be welding. Two brackets 3 arranged horizontally and oppositely are connected to the lower surface of the table plate 1. A retaining plate 4 arranged horizontally is fixedly connected to opposite inner sides of the two brackets 3, respectively. A longitudinal section of the retaining plate 4 is configured as U-shaped, and two ends of the retaining plate 4 are flushed with an upper surface of the brackets 3, so that there is a space between the upper surface of the retaining plate 4 and the lower surface of the table plate 1. A control box 5 arranged horizontally is clamped in the space between the retaining plate 4 and the table plate 1, and the control box 5 is configured as rectangle shape. An electric control device for driving the height-adjustable table to rise and fall is installed inside the control box 5, and a retaining clip 6 arranged horizontally is fixed at a lower surface of the control box 5 along its width direction. A lower surface of the retaining clip 6 is formed with a receiving recess 61 for clamping the retaining plate 4. In some embodiments, the retaining clip 6 is configured as L-shaped; one end of the retaining clip 6 is fixedly connected to a side of the control box 5 away from its front, and the other end is a free end, so that the retaining clip 6 can be detachably connected to the retaining plate 4. In some embodiments, in order to install the control box 5 to the retaining plate 4 more stably, a rectangular frame is formed inside the retaining plate 4; a number of the retaining clips 6 is configured as at least two, such as four; and four ends of the retaining plate 4 are clamped to the four retaining clips 6. Opening directions of the receiving recess 61 of the retaining clip 6 are same, in which an outer edge of the retaining plate 4 is clamped to two retaining clips 6, and an inner edge of the retaining plate 4 is clamped to the other two retaining clips 6, thereby the control box 5 can be fixedly connected to the retaining plate 4 more stably.

When the control box 5 needs to be installed to the table plate 1, firstly the retaining clip 6 is aligned with the retaining plate 4 and moved towards an edge of the retaining plate 4. The rectangular frame is formed inside the retaining plate 4, and a width of the rectangular frame inside the retaining plate 4 is greater than a length of the retaining clip 6, so that the four ends of the retaining plate 4 can be clamped to all the four retaining clips 6; further the control box 5 can be fixed stably and firmly to the lower surface of the table plate 1; and the installing operation is convenient.

Referring to FIG. 3, when the retaining plate 4 is clamped to the retaining clip 6, a sidewall of the receiving recess 61 will collide with the edge of the retaining plate 4. In order to prevent the sidewall of the receiving recess 61 from being worn and damaged due to impact, a vertical limiting plate 7 is fixed to a side of the control box 5 facing the retaining plate 4. The limiting plate 7 is configured as rectangle shape and its long side is arranged horizontally, and the limiting plate 7 is configured as parallel to the sidewall of the retaining plate 4, so that a contact area between the limiting plate 7 and the retaining plate 4 can be increased. When the receiving recess 61 is moved towards the edge of the retaining plate 4 and the edge of the retaining plate 4 is gradually inserted into the receiving recess 61, a first sidewall of the limiting plate 7 is attached to the edge of the retaining plate 4, so that the edge of the retaining plate 4 cannot move towards the sidewall of the receiving recess 61, at this time, there is a gap between the sidewall of the receiving recess 61 and the edge of the retaining plate 4, so as to prevent the sidewall of the receiving recess 61 from colliding with the edge of the retaining plate 4.
