The lifting mechanism comprises a lifting base, a stopping component disposed in the lifting base, a triggering component movably connected to the lifting base, and an elastic component connected to the lifting base and the stopping component. When the triggering component is driven to drive the stopping component, the stopping component moves to press against an inner wall of the supporting stand so that the lifting base is fixedly positioned in the supporting stand. When the triggering component is driven to release the stopping component, the stopping component moves away from the inner wall of the supporting stand by a restoring force of the elastic component so that the lifting base can be lifted of lowered in the supporting stand.
