Description

Display support device

The present invention relates to a support device, and more particularly to a support device for a display.

In general, desktop displays usually require support devices to support the screen and adjust the tilt of the screen. Since the screen of the display is more susceptible to damage due to foreign object collision, the screen needs to be covered during transportation to avoid foreign objects colliding. Therefore, when the display is generally sold, the display body and the supporting device are not assembled, and are packaged in an appropriately sized carton, and then assembled by the user after purchase. However, the support devices of most displays are not easily disassembled after assembly, which causes troubles when moving the display (such as when moving or moving the office).

Since the support device cannot be removed when it is to be transported, it cannot be loaded into the original packaging carton. And if the supporting device cannot be disassembled, since the supporting device has a large area of the base, and the base protrudes a large section on the front and rear sides of the display body, the left and right sides of the base are substantially larger than the left and right sides of the display body. The shrinkage causes the display to form an irregular shape with a large difference in front, back, left, and right widths, and is not easy to pack. For example, if the display is placed in a carton that is the same width as the base, the gap between the display body and the carton will be large, and a lot of cushioning material needs to be filled to avoid damage caused by shaking during handling, but the appropriate cushioning material must have A certain degree of stiffness can prevent the carton from being depressed by the pressure, and sometimes it is not easy to obtain; if you choose to use the carton that matches the thickness of the display body, the base cannot be placed in the carton and will be exposed to the carton and cannot be protected by the carton. There is a risk of damage. If the base is to be further protected, the base must be additionally covered. The packaging procedure is complicated and the overall shape is irregular and less easy to handle.

In any case, the inability to disassemble the support device can cause considerable trouble for the handling of the display and needs to be improved.

Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a support device that can be easily removed and combined with a positionally displayed display.

Therefore, the supporting device of the display of the present invention is used for connecting a casing of a display to support the screen of the display, and the supporting device comprises a connecting mechanism and a supporting mechanism.

The first limiting member 42 has a fixing portion 421 disposed on the housing 1 , a resilient arm 422 extending from the fixing portion 421 , and a resilient block 423 formed by bending the elastic arm 422 . More specifically, the fixing portion 421 of the first limiting member 42 has a latch 424 and a hook 425 extending from opposite sides, respectively, and the hook end of the hook 425 extends in the same direction as the end of the latch 424. Each of the positioning portions 43 respectively defines a positioning slot 431 corresponding to the latch 424 and the hook 425. Each positioning slot 431 cooperates with the insertion latch 424 and the hook 425 to thereby restrain the fixing portion 421 . The elastic block 423 has a a locking portion 427 extending from the elastic arm 422 and a guiding portion 426 extending from the locking portion 427 in a direction opposite to the elastic arm 422, the locking portion 427 being opposite to the guiding portion 426 The plane of the elastic arm 422 has a steep slope and a steep slope. The accommodating through slot 44 correspondingly receives the elastic block 423 so that the elastic block 423 protrudes from the rear side of the housing 1 (see FIGS. 8 and 9).

Referring to FIG. 4 , FIG. 5 and FIG. 6 , the support mechanism 5 includes a base 51 and a second limiting member 52 . The base 51 has a bottom plate 511 for supporting on a bearing surface (not shown) and a column 512 disposed on the bottom plate 511. The column 512 and the bottom plate 511 are detachably engaged and fixed. The second limiting member 52 is pivotally disposed on the column 512 and has a body 521, a second plug-in unit disposed on the periphery of the body 521, and a body 521 disposed inside the body 521 and the elastic block 423 (see Figure 2) Cooperating stop slots 523. The second plug-in unit is a plurality of protrusions 522 protruding from the periphery of the body 521, and the second plug-in unit is matched with the first plug-in unit, that is, the jacks 41 of the first plug-in unit respectively correspond to the protrusions The position of the outlet portion 522 is inserted into the corresponding projection portion 522. In the preferred embodiment, the number of the protrusions 522 and the insertion holes 41 are described by four. The second limiting member 52 has a pivot 524, and the body 521 pivots with the pivot 524 as an axis.

Referring to FIG. 7, FIG. 8 and FIG. 9, when the supporting device 3 is assembled, the first limiting member 42 is first mounted on the housing 1 and the second limiting member 52 (see FIG. 5) is respectively mounted on the column 512 (see FIG. 5). When the first limiting member 42 is mounted, the first limiting member 42 is respectively aligned with the latch 424 and the hook 425 of the fixing portion 421 from the inner side of the housing 1 to the positioning grooves 431, and the elastic block 423 is placed. The receiving slot 44 protrudes out of the housing 1 , and the end of the resilient arm 422 abuts the housing 1 The first limiting member 42 is fixed to the housing 1 by inserting the latch 424 and the hook 425 of the fixing portion 421 into the corresponding positioning slots 431. It does not require the use of other auxiliary tools (such as screws) for fixing, and assembly is easy and convenient. The manner in which the second limiting member 52 is mounted to the post 512 is not described in detail in the prior art.

Referring to Figures 9, 10 and 11, for convenience of explanation, Figures 10 and 11 do not show the base 51. When the connecting mechanism 4 and the supporting mechanism 5 are to be combined, the second limiting member 52 of the supporting mechanism 5 is placed in the assembly groove 11 of the housing 1 and the body 521 is abutted against the outer side of the housing 1 so that the protruding portions 522 are respectively Aligning each of the insertion holes 41 and slidingly sliding along the pair of connection directions II, and the limiting groove 523 of the second limiting member 52 (see FIG. 6) slides relative to the guiding portion 426 of the elastic block 423. When the protruding portions 522 are respectively inserted into the respective insertion holes 41 to reach the positioning, the elastic block 423 also slides into the engaging limit groove 523. Since the inclination of the guiding portion 426 of the elastic block 423 is slow and the inclination of the locking portion 427 is steep, when the elastic block 423 is docked with the limiting slot 523, the elastic block 423 is caused by the guiding portion 426. It is easy to be compressed and retracted into the limiting slot 523, and by the locking section 427, the slope is steep, and a large force is required to retract the elastic block 423, so that the elastic block 423 and the limit The groove 523 is not easily separated by the reverse movement, so that the connection mechanism 4 and the support mechanism 5 can be positioned in combination with each other.

If the connecting mechanism 4 is to be separated from the supporting mechanism 5, the first limiting member 42 and the second limiting member 52 are moved in the opposite direction in the opposite direction, even if a force capable of overcoming the elastic force of the elastic block 423 is applied. The position slot 523 moves toward the opposite mating direction II and presses the locking portion 427 of the elastic block 423, forcing the elastic block 423 to elastically displace toward the inner side of the housing 1, so that the limiting slot can be made The 523 passes the elastic block 423 and disengages the elastic block 423 from the limiting groove 523, thereby separating the support mechanism 5 from the connecting mechanism 4.

In this embodiment, the mating direction II of the elastic block 423 and the limiting slot 523 is perpendicular to the normal direction N of the chassis 511, that is, the butting direction II is perpendicular to the supporting direction of the column 512, when the supporting mechanism 5 and the connection When the mechanism 4 is in the combined state, if the user does not need to disassemble the base 51, only the display is moved shortly, and the display is turned upside down and the display is held by the hand column 512, the elastic block 423 is subjected to the vertical butting direction II to ensure elasticity. The block 423 does not detach from the limiting groove 523 due to the pulling force of the display being inverted, so that the supporting mechanism 5 and the connecting mechanism 4 are stably coupled. Further, since the butting direction II is perpendicular to the supporting direction of the column 512, the assembling groove 11 has a sliding space 111 for the left and right movement of the body 521 of the second stopper 52.

Referring to FIG. 12 and FIG. 13, the second preferred embodiment of the support device of the display of the present invention is substantially the same as the first preferred embodiment, except that the protruding portion 522 of the supporting mechanism 5 and the insertion hole 41 of the connecting mechanism 4 and the limit position are provided. The mating direction II of the slot 523 and the elastic block 423 is parallel to the normal direction N of the chassis 511, that is, the mating direction II is parallel to the supporting direction of the column 512, and the supporting mechanism 5 is docked from the bottom to the connecting mechanism 4, Therefore, compared with the first preferred embodiment, the sliding space 111 (see FIG. 9) for the assembly slot 11 to be moved to the left and right of the body 521 of the second limiting member 52 can be saved, but it is not suitable as the first preferred embodiment. The hand held column 512 with the display upside down is transported.

In summary, the supporting device of the display of the present invention can be inserted and slid in the mating direction II by the protruding portion 522 of the supporting mechanism 5 and the insertion hole 41 of the connecting mechanism 4, and the elastic block 423 slides into the engaging limit. Positioning in slot 523 to support The mechanism 5 is combined with the connecting mechanism 4, and when the supporting mechanism 5 and the connecting mechanism 4 are to be separated, only the reverse biasing is required, and the elastic block 423 is elastically displaced from the limiting slot 523, and the supporting mechanism 5 can be The connecting mechanism 4 is easily assembled and disassembled, so that the object of the present invention can be achieved.

The above is only the preferred embodiment of the present invention, and the scope of the invention is not limited thereto, that is, the simple equivalent changes and modifications made by the scope of the invention and the description of the invention are All remain within the scope of the invention patent.
