Abstract

A telescopic adjuster including first and second linear actuators, a connecting platform and first and second telescopic levers is provided. The first linear actuator includes a first screw and a pair of first fixing rings. The first fixing rings are arranged at two respective ends of the first screw. The second linear actuator includes a second screw and a second fixing ring. The second fixing ring is arranged at the end of the second screw, relatively away from the connecting platform. The first and second linear actuators are arranged on the connecting platform in parallel. The first screw pushes the connecting platform to move along the first screw, and the first fixing rings limit a movement of the connecting platform. The first and second telescopic levers are coaxially arranged.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A telescopic adjuster, comprising:
a first linear actuator, comprising a first screw, a pair of first fixing rings, a first motor, and a pair of first guiding rods, wherein the pair of first fixing rings are arranged at two respective ends of the first screw, the first motor is connected with the first screw, so as to control the first screw to rotate, and the pair of first guiding rods is arranged at two sides of the first screw and penetrates the connecting platform, so as to limit the connecting platform to linear movement;
a second linear actuator, comprising a second screw, a second fixing ring, a second motor, and a pair of second guiding rods, wherein the second fixing ring is arranged at an end, away from a connecting platform, of the second screw, the second motor is connected with the second screw to control the second screw to rotate, and the pair of second guiding rods is located on two sides of the second screw and is fixed to the connecting platform;
the connecting platform, wherein the first linear actuator and the second linear actuator are arranged on the connecting platform in parallel, the first screw is capable of pushing the connecting platform to move along the first screw, and the pair of first fixing rings limit a movement of the connecting platform; and
a first outer cylinder tube and a second outer cylinder tube, wherein the first outer cylinder tube and the second outer cylinder tube are coaxially arranged, one end of the first outer cylinder tube is fixed to the connecting platform, and the second screw and the second outer cylinder tube are movably arranged in the first outer cylinder tube, and the second screw pushes up the second outer cylinder tube to protrude from the first outer cylinder tube.

2. The telescopic adjuster according to claim 1 ,
wherein one end of the first outer cylinder tube is fixed to the connecting platform while the other end of the first outer cylinder tube comprises an opening, and the second screw pushes up the second outer cylinder tube to extend out of the first outer cylinder tube from the opening.

3. The telescopic adjuster according to claim 1 , further comprises a third fixing ring, which is arranged at an end close to the connecting platform, of the second outer cylinder tube, wherein the pair of second guiding rods passes through the third fixing ring, and the second fixing ring and the third fixing ring limit a moving distance of the second outer cylinder tube.

4. The telescopic adjuster according to claim 1 , wherein the connecting platform comprises a first set hole and a second set hole, the first screw is arranged in the first set hole in a penetrating manner, and the second screw is arranged in the second set hole in a penetrating manner.

5. The telescopic adjuster according to claim 4 , wherein the first screw comprises an external thread while the first set hole comprises an internal thread, and the external thread of the first screw meshes with the internal thread of the first set hole.

6. The telescopic adjuster according to claim 4 , wherein the second screw comprises an external thread while the second outer cylinder tube comprises an internal thread, and the external thread of the second screw meshes with the internal thread of the second outer cylinder tube.
