Alock pin 212 and anopening 222 are respectively formed on theupper base 210 and thelower base 220. When theupper base 210 is merged with thelower base 220, thelock pin 212 goes through theopening 222 with the lock arms extended such that theupper base 210 and thelower base 220 can be joined tightly and the assembled structure of thedisplay panel 10 and thepanel base 12 can rotate stably on therotatable stand 20. - The degree of tightness (related to the degree of difficulty to rotate) of the conventional
rotatable stand 20 is not allowed to be adjusted. Tightness over or under a feasible range usually causes a bad user experience In other words, the tightness of the rotatable stand of a conventional electronic device is not allowed to be changed after manufacturing phase After long-time use, it tends to spin too easily due to the departure from the factory setting tightness range, so as to impact the rotation friendiness. In view of foregoing drawback, the present invention set forth a rotatable stand with adjustable tightness. - An object of the present invention is to provide a rotatable stand, and more particularly to a rotatable stand with suitable adjustability on tightness and flexibility for a manufacturer to alter the orientation thereof.
- According to the object, the present invention provides a rotatable stand with adjustable tightness, including a turntable, a base, at least one adjustable connecting element, and a resilient element. The turntable has a spindle which passes through and rotates in an opening of the base. The adjustable connecting element is connected to the turntable, such that the resilient element squeezes the base between the turntable and the resilient element so as to provide a proper squeezing strength and to make it convenient for a user to alter the orientation between the rotatable stand and the base.

FIG. 5 shows a bottom view of the embodiment ofFIG. 3 . -
FIG. 6 shows a bottom view of another embodiment in accordance with the present invention. -
FIG. 3 shows a perspective view of an IP phone (Internet Protocol phone) in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, including aturntable 40, a base (41,45), adisplay panel 30, and atelephone handset 32. Theturntable 40 is configured on and rotatable with respect to the base (41,45). Thedisplay panel 30 is mounted on and pivotally connected to theturntable 40 such that the angle of elevation or depression of thedisplay panel 30 with respect to theturntable 40 is adjustable and that thedisplay panel 30 and theturntable 40 are collectively allowed to be rotated clockwise or counter-clockwise with respect to the base (41, 45) (as indicated by the arrow sign inFIG. 3 ). A user can find out an appropriate view angle to thedisplay panel 30 by rotating theturntable 40. Thetelephone handset 32 is connected to another end of the base (41, 45). - In this embodiment, the base (41, 45) is composed of the
upper base 41 and thelower base 45. Thelower base 45, however, may be omitted such that only theupper base 41 constitutes the whole base. Thetelephone buttons 31 are located on theturntable 40. Although it is illustrated by an IP phone in the embodiment, the present invention is applicable to communication or home electronic devices such as computers, televisions, image phones, and any other rotatable appliances. -
FIG. 4 shows an exploded perspective view of the major rotatable structure of the IP phone shown in FIG-3, comprising aturntable 40, anupper base 41, aresilient element 43, at least one adjustable connectingelement 44, and aspacing pad 42. - A
spindle 4010 is formed on the rear side of theturntable 40 in the form of a hollow cylinder in this embodiment. At least onescrew hole 4020 is formed in thespindle 4010 so as to be screwed with the adjustable connectingelement 44. The position of thescrew hole 4020 is not limit to the inner side of thespindle 4010. - An opening 4112 is formed through the
base 41 and the internal diameter thereof is slightly greater than the outer diameter of thespindle 4010 such that thespindle 4010 can pass through the opening 4112 and rotate without moving transversely. In this embodiment, a pair of symmetric arc-shaped notches 4114 are formed inside theupper base 41 to limit the rotating angle of theturntable 40. - The
resilient element 43 is located under the opening 4112 so as to provide a squeezing strength (or a normal force) to secure thebase 41 between theturntable 40 and theresilient element 43. In this embodiment, theresilient element 43 is a resilient pad which includes aplate portion 4320 and a plurality of supportinglegs 4310 extended from theplate portion 4320. Each of the supportinglegs 4310 forms an angle with theplate portion 4320. - Responsible for both connectivity and adjustability in this embodiment, the adjustable connecting
element 44 is, but not limit to, a screw. The number of the at least one adjustable connectingelement 44 is corresponding to the number of throughholes 4330 through theplate portion 4320. - The
spacing pad 42 is located between theupper base 41 and the resilient element 43.In this embodiment, thespacing pad 42, such as w washer, has an opening with inner diameter less than the outer diameter of the circle defined by the supportinglegs 4310. The area of the opening of thespacing pad 42, however, can accommodate the throughholes 4330. - To assemble or implement this embodiment, one or more adjustable connecting elements 44 (e.g., screws) are connected into the
screw holes 4020 in thespindle 4010 through the throughholes 4330 on the surface of theplate portion 4320 of theresilient element 43. In this regard, the adjustable connectingelement 44 makes the supportinglegs 4310 deformed to produce the squeezing strength. The extent of screwing the adjustable connectingelement 44 into thescrew hole 4020 and the screw thread length determine the extent of the deformation of the supportinglegs 4310 as well as the squeezing strength. - The squeezing strength provides the friction between the
turntable 40 and theupper base 41 so as to control the degree of tightness or the degree of difficulty to rotate theturntable 40 in accordance with the state of theresilient element 43 and to provide users a friendly experience on using theturntable 40. Thespacing pad 42 between theupper base 41 and theresilient element 43 makes the squeezing strength produced by the supportinglegs 4310 uniformly distributed over theupper base 41. The arc-shaped notches 4114 located inside theupper base 41 can limit the maximum rotation angle reachable by theturntable 40. With such a rotation angle limitation, the interconnecting lines therein are protecting from damage due to improper usage. -
FIG. 5 shows a bottom view of the present embodiment. Only major structure is depicted for illustration purpose. Theupper base 41 has a cone-like shape. Theturntable 40 may rotate with respect to theupper base 41 clockwise or counter-clockwise (as illustrated by the arrow sign inFIG. 5 ). FIG,5 shows the interrelationship after assembling among theresilient element 43, thespacing pad 42 and thespindle 4010.FIG. 6 shows a bottom view of another embodiment in accordance with the present invention. Theupper base 41 has a circle-like shape. Likewise, the figure shows the interrelationship after assembling among theresilient element 43, thespacing pad 42 and thespindle 4010. - It should be understood, however, that there is no intention to limit the invention to the preferred embodiments disclosed, but on the contrary, the invention is to cover all modifications, alternate constructions and equivalents falling within the spirit and scope of the invention as expressed in the appended claims.
