    Abstract: A cam adjustment device for lifting and lowering an armrest includes an armrest assembly and a support frame. The armrest assembly includes a connection base. The support frame has a support rod. The connection base is slidably connected to the support rod. A locking mechanism includes a cam wrench disposed on the connection base and rotatably installed on the connection base. The cam wrench is rotated such that a cam on the cam wrench presses and acts on the support rod. In a locked state, the cam wrench presses the support rod such that the connection base and the support rod are kept to be relatively fixed. In an unlocked state, the cam wrench is rotated to allow the cam to be released from the support rod, such that the connection base is lifted, lowered, and adjusted relative to the support rod.

  • Publication number: 20220175148
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a storage bed with a horizontally lifted bed board, comprising a bed body provided with a storage cavity, a bed board frame covering the bed body, parallelogram lifting mechanisms symmetrically arranged on two sides of the bed board frame, and driving devices, wherein the parallelogram lifting mechanisms are connected to inner side walls of the storage cavity and the bed board frame, and the driving devices drive the parallelogram lifting mechanisms to push the bed board frame to be horizontally lifted towards a footboard direction of the bed body. The parallelogram lifting mechanisms are utilized to push the bed board frame to be horizontally lifted towards the footboard direction of the bed body, so that the bed board frame is prevented from coming into collision against a headboard in a lifting process; it is unnecessary to take down bedclothes when articles are stored or taken.
