UPS uninterruptible power supply mobile computer table structure
A UPS uninterruptible power supply mobile computer table structure comprises an inner tube pivotally mounted into an outer tube wherein a table panel and a wireless data-receiving monitor are respectively located at the upper section of the inner tube to work with a keyboard and a UPS system, and an ascending/descending device is mounted inside the bottom end of the outer tube and controlled by an ascending/descending button. The ascending/descending device has a transmission motor with a spiral-shaped rod to mesh with a driven gear of a threaded shaft screw-joined to a screw-threaded hole of an operational tube. A base panel attached to the upper end of the operational tube is secured to the inner tube. Therefore, the ascending/descending button is pressed to actuate the ascending/descending device spinning lineally upwards or downwards to adjust the position of the table panel and the monitor, providing more convenient and ergonomic design thereby.
The present invention relates to a UPS uninterruptible power supply mobile computer table structure wherein an ascending/descending device having a transmission motor is utilized to cooperatively work with an IC control panel equipped with a set of ascending and descending buttons; whereby, the ascending or descending button is simply pressed to actuate an operational tube of the ascending/descending device spinning lineally upwards or downwards along a threaded shaft to adjust the position of an inner tube so as to precisely locate a table panel and a monitor at desired positions thereby, providing more convenient and ergonomic design thereby.
Conventional UPS uninterruptible power supply portable computer table is characterized by the use of pneumatic cylinders or elastic cords to control the ascending and descending movement of a monitor and a table panel thereby. In application, pressing force is exerted onto the table panel so as to lower downwards an inner tube. In case of an excessive force applied thereto, the inner tube will descend too fast and fail to locate the table panel and the monitor precisely at desired positions. Thus, the computer table must be readjusted to reach the demanded position, which is quite inconvenient in both application and adjustment.
SUMMARY OF THE PRESENT INVENTIONIt is, therefore, the primary purpose of the present invention to provide a UPS uninterruptible power supply mobile computer table structure wherein a transmission motor of an ascending/descending device is utilized to cooperatively work with an IC control panel equipped with a set of ascending and descending buttons; whereby, the ascending or descending button is simply pressed to actuate an operational tube spinning lineally upwards or downwards along a threaded shaft to adjust the position of an inner tube and locate a base panel and a monitor at desired positions thereby, permitting accurate adjustment of the computer table without the repeated operation of the pneumatic cylinders or elastic cords of the conventional portable computer table to provide more a convenient and ergonomic design in application and adjustment thereby.
It is, therefore, the second purpose of the present invention to provide a UPS uninterruptible power supply mobile computer table structure wherein the ascending/descending device is accommodated into an outer tube with an inner tube joined therein and, via rectangular passageways preset at a platform of the ascending/descending device and a base panel, the inner and outer tubes are reciprocally communicated so that wires respectively linked to the transmission motor, the IC control panel, the monitor and storage battery can be guided there-through and concealed at the inner and outer tubes therein, permitting free movement of the computer table without being interfered by the wires thereof as well as allowing a clean and neat appearance thereof.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
Please refer to
To adjust the position of the table panel 15 and the monitor 162 in height (referring to
Furthermore, when the operational tube 25 keeps screwing upwards to reach the top edge of the threaded shaft 24, the operational tube 25 will be hindered by the stop side 243, and the threaded shaft 24 with the transmission motor 22 will be ceased from operation so as to protect the transmission motor 22 avoiding idle spinning thereby. Besides, the operational tube 25 can be prevented from climbing upwards continuously so as to avoid the risk of detaching from the threaded shaft 24 thereof. Otherwise, when the operational tube 25 is screwed to descend downwards till reaching the top surface of the restricting cavities 233 and stopped thereby, the threaded shaft 24 and the transmission motor 22 will immediately cease the operation thereof. Therefore, the operational tube 25 and the inner tube 12 are restricted to ascend or descend between a topmost point and a bottommost point and automatically positioned there-between, achieving the best application state of the present invention.
