The embodiments described below with reference to the drawings are illustrative and intended to be illustrative of the invention and are not to be construed as limiting the invention.
In the conventional fan, during the height adjustment process, a user usually holds the fan body with one hand, and then unscrews the cable nut or the knob with the other hand, moves the fan body to a target position, and then screws the cable nut or the knob to fix the fan body on the support rod. Because both hands work simultaneously, the user generally feels hard and inconvenient, especially, when the fan body slips carelessly, the fan body that falls rapidly causes great impact to spare parts such as fan box and cable nut, may even clip or pound the user's both hands.
A height adjusting device 100 for a fan according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to fig. 1 to 5.
The height adjusting apparatus 100 for a fan according to an embodiment of the present invention may include: a first tube 10, a second tube 20 and a piston 40.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 1 to 5, the first tube 10 is open at an upper end thereof and provided with a plug 30 at a lower end thereof. The lower end of the second tube 20 is telescopically inserted into the upper end of the first tube 10. The lower end of the first pipe 10 is connected to the support base of the fan, the upper end of the second pipe 20 is connected to the fan, and the height of the fan can be adjusted by changing the depth of the second pipe 20 inserted into the first pipe 10.
The piston 40 is provided in the upper end of the first pipe 10 and connected to the lower end of the second pipe 20, and the lower surface of the piston 40, the inner wall surface of the first pipe 10 and the upper surface of the plug 30 together define a damping air chamber 50, and the piston 40 and the plug 30 are configured to press the damping air chamber 50 to slow down the descent speed of the piston 40 when the piston 40 moves downward.
In other words, after the user unscrews the cable nut or the knob, the damping air chamber 50 generates an upward acting force on the piston 40, the fan body, the second pipe body 20 and the piston 40 will slowly fall due to the buffering effect of the damping air chamber 50, and when the fan body falls to the target position, the user screws the cable nut or the knob, thereby completing the adjustment of the height of the fan.
That is, when the user needs to lower the height of the fan, the user does not need to apply any acting force to the fan body, only needs to loosen the cable nut or the knob before the fan body falls down, and then screws the cable nut or the knob after the fan body falls down to the target position, so that inconvenience caused by simultaneous operation of both hands of the user is avoided.
Therefore, according to the height adjusting device 100 for the fan of the embodiment of the present invention, the piston 40 is disposed in the upper end of the first tube 10 and connected to the lower end of the second tube 20, and the damping air chamber 50 is defined between the lower surface of the piston 40, the inner wall surface of the first tube 10 and the upper surface of the plug 30, so that after the nut or the knob is loosened, the second tube 20, the fan and the piston 40 can slowly fall due to the buffering effect of the damping air chamber 50, thereby preventing the rapidly falling fan from causing large impact on parts such as the fan box and the nut, and improving the convenience and safety of the user in adjusting the height of the fan.
In some embodiments of the present invention, as shown in fig. 4 to 5, the plug 30 is fixedly disposed at the lower end of the first pipe 10 and closes the lower end of the first pipe 10, the inner wall surface of the first pipe 10 is formed as a rough surface, and an air gap 91 is formed between the outer wall surface of the piston 40 and the inner wall surface of the first pipe 10.
That is, when the piston 40 moves upward, the external air can flow into the damping chamber from the air gap 91, and when the piston 40 moves downward, the air in the damping air chamber 50 is compressed and slowly flows out from the air gap 91. Therefore, under the condition of not increasing any part, an air gap 91 is formed between the outer wall surface of the piston 40 and the inner wall surface of the first pipe body 10, and a damping air cavity 50 is defined between the lower surface of the piston 40, the inner wall surface of the first pipe body 10 and the upper surface of the pipe plug 30, so that after the cable nut or the knob is loosened, the second pipe body 20, the fan body and the piston 40 can slowly fall due to the buffering effect of the damping air cavity 50, the phenomenon that the rapidly falling fan body causes large impact on the fan box, the cable nut and other parts is avoided, and the convenience and the safety of a user for adjusting the height of the fan are improved.
In other embodiments of the present invention, as shown in fig. 1 to 3, the pipe plug 30 is provided with an air hole 31 communicating with the damper gas chamber 50, and the height adjusting device 100 may further include a throttle member 60, the throttle member 60 being configured to close the air hole 31 to throttle the air in the damper gas chamber 50 when the piston 40 presses the damper chamber and to open the air hole 31 when the piston 40 moves upward. Wherein the orifice 60 is movably disposed on the plug 30.
That is, when the piston 40 moves downward, the throttle member 60 closes the air hole 31 on the pipe plug 30, and the gas in the damper gas cavity 50 can flow out slowly from the fit clearance between the throttle member 60 and the air hole 31, so that the gas in the damper gas cavity 50 can be discharged in a throttling manner, and the descending speed of the fan body, the second pipe body 20 and the piston 40 can be reduced; when the piston 40 moves upwards, along with the volume increase of the damping air cavity 50, the air pressure in the damping air cavity 50 is gradually reduced, the throttle sheet is pushed away by the external atmospheric pressure to open the air hole 31, the external air enters the damping air cavity 50, the internal and external air pressures of the first pipe body 10 are equal, the second pipe body 20 can be moved upwards by a user when a small acting force is applied, the depth of the second pipe body 20 inserted in the first pipe body 10 is reduced, and the height of the fan is easily changed by the user.
Optionally, a first sealing ring 70 is provided between the plug 30 and the inner wall surface of the first pipe 10. Therefore, the sealing performance between the pipe plug 30 and the first pipe 10 can be improved, and the gas in the damper gas chamber 50 is prevented from flowing out from between the pipe plug 30 and the first pipe 10.
In other embodiments of the present invention, as shown in fig. 1-5, the piston 40 may include a first tube section 41 and a second tube section 42, the first tube section 41 being disposed within the first tube 10, and the second tube section 42 being disposed above the first tube section 41 and within the second tube 20. At least two second sealing rings 80 are arranged between the first pipe section 41 and the inner wall surface of the first pipe body 10 at intervals in the vertical direction.
Wherein, the outer wall surface of the first pipe section 41 is provided with at least two accommodating grooves 90 which are inwards recessed along the radial direction of the piston 40, and the second sealing ring 80 is installed in the accommodating grooves 90. The lower surface of the piston 40 is provided with at least one through hole 43, and the through hole 43 communicates with the receiving groove 90. Wherein, the inner wall surface of the second sealing ring 80 is spaced from the circumferential wall of the receiving groove 90 by a predetermined distance.
When the piston 40 moves upwards, the second sealing rings 80 are respectively contacted with the bottom surfaces of the accommodating grooves 90, the through holes 43 on the lower surface of the piston 40 are sealed by the second sealing rings 80, and the gas in the damping gas cavity 50 cannot flow out of the air gaps 91, so that the thrust of the gas on the lower surface of the piston 40 is increased, a user can move the second pipe body 20 upwards when applying a small acting force, the depth of the second pipe body 20 inserted in the first pipe body 10 is increased, and the height of the fan is easily changed.
When the piston 40 moves downward, the second sealing rings 80 are respectively contacted with the top surfaces of the accommodating grooves 90, the through holes 43 on the lower surface of the piston 40 are communicated with the accommodating grooves 90, and the air gap 91 between the inner wall surface of the first pipe 10 and the outer wall surface of the piston 40 is communicated with the damping air cavity 50, so that the air in the damping air cavity 50 can slowly flow out from the air gap 91. Therefore, after the cable nut or the knob is loosened, the second pipe body 20, the fan body and the piston 40 can slowly fall due to the buffering effect of the damping air cavity 50, so that the fan body which rapidly falls can be prevented from causing large impact on parts such as a fan box, the cable nut and the like, and the convenience and the safety of a user for adjusting the height of the fan are improved.
