Abstract

An elevation working platform includes a lower support and an upper support. At least one group of X-type elevation mechanisms is provided between the lower support and the upper support. The elevation working platform further includes an elastic element. A first end of the elastic element is connected between two end points of a first support rod or a second support rod. A second end of the elastic element is connected to the lower support or a second hinging seat capable of sliding relative to the lower support. Using the X-type elevation mechanisms, the front and back positions of the upper support do not change in an elevating process of the upper support, the structure is simple and practical, and the cost is relatively low.

Claims (18)

1. An elevation working platform, comprising a desk plate and an elevation working platform body, the elevation working platform body having an upper support, a lower support and at least one group of elevating components connected between the upper support and the lower support, the desk plate is arranged on the upper support, and the elevating components are used to adjust the height of the desk plate in related to the lower support, wherein the desk plate is provided with an elongate-shaped hole; an elongate-shaped box is connected in the elongate-shaped hole; the top of the elongated-shaped box is provided with an opening and the bottom of the elongate-shaped box is provided with a plurality of through holes through which data lines or charging wires can pass; and the elongated-shaped box is sized such that it is capable of being used to place electronic devices through the opening.

2. The elevation working platform of claim 1 , wherein it further comprises a locking component, which is used to releasably lock the desk plate at any height; a lever is arranged underneath the desk plate, and the lever is connected with the locking component; the locking component is connected with the elevating components; one can operate the lever to unlock the locking component to allow the elevating components to move.

3. The elevation working platform of claim 1 , wherein each group of elevating components comprises a first support rod and a second support rod hinged to a central portion of each other to form an X-shape, the lower support comprises a first hinging seat fixedly connected thereto and a second hinging seat slidable relative to the lower support, the upper support comprises a third hinging seat fixedly connected thereto and a fourth hinging seat slidable relative to the upper support, a lower end of the first support rod is hinged to the first hinging seat, an upper end of the first support rod is hinged to the fourth hinging seat, a lower end of the second support rod is hinged to the second hinging seat, an upper end of the second support rod is hinged to the third hinging seat, and the elevation working platform comprises an elastic component, and the elastic component bears at least a part of the weight of the upper support.

4. The elevation working platform of claim 3 , wherein the locking component is arranged on the lower support to restrict the sliding of the second hinging seat; the locking component comprises a plurality of positioning holes arranged along a lengthwise direction on the second hinging seat; a box is arranged on the lower support outside the second hinging seat, and a movable pin having a free end to be inserted into or removed from the positioning holes is arranged within the box; the desk plate is provided with a lever to actuate the movable pin and remove the free end of the movable pin from the positioning holes.

5. The elevation working platform of claim 3 , wherein the elastic component is arranged between the lower support and the first support rod, the first end of the elastic component is hinged to the lower support, and the second end of the elastic component is hinged to the first support rod.

6. The elevation working platform of claim 3 , wherein the elastic component is arranged between the second hinging seat and the second support rod, the first end of the elastic component is hinged to the second hinging seat, and the second end of the elastic component is hinged to the second support rod.

7. The elevation working platform of claim 5 , wherein the elastic component is a compressed gas spring or a compressed mechanical spring.

8. The elevation working platform of claim 3 , wherein the elastic component is arranged between the lower support and the second support rod, the first end of the elastic component is hinged to the lower support, and the second end of the elastic component is hinged to the second support rod.
