Abstract

A pedestal comprising a support ( 1 ) and a pedestal body ( 2 ). The support ( 1 ) includes a cylindrical upright column ( 11 ) for connecting with the pedestal body ( 2 ). At least one slot ( 111 ) is provided on a wall of the cylindrical upright column ( 11 ) and extends along a circumferential direction of the wall, and a gap ( 112 ) communicating with an end face of the wall is provided on the respective slots. A limit projection ( 113 ) is provided at an inner side of the wall. A groove ( 21 ) matching with the cylindrical upright column ( 11 ) is provided on the pedestal body ( 2 ). A clamping hook ( 211 ) for engaging with the slot ( 111 ) is provided on a side wall of the groove ( 21 ). A spring strip ( 212 ) is provided on a bottom surface of the groove ( 21 ). A protrusion ( 213 ) for engaging with the limit projection ( 113 ) is provided on the spring strip ( 212 ). A via hole ( 214 ) passing through a thickness of the pedestal body ( 2 ) is provided on the bottom surface of the groove ( 21 ), and the via hole ( 214 ) abuts on the spring strip ( 212 ). The pedestal is used for support a display device or lamp. The difficulty in assembling and disassembling of the support and the pedestal body can be overcome. A display apparatus and an illumination apparatus which comprise the pedestal are further provided.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A pedestal comprising a support and a pedestal body, wherein, the support includes a cylindrical upright column, at least one slot is provided on a wall of the cylindrical upright column and extends along a circumferential direction of the wall, a gap communicating with an end face of the wall is provided on the at least one slot, and at least one limit projection is provided at an inner side of the wall;
a groove matching with the cylindrical upright column is provided on the pedestal body, a clamping hook for engaging with the at least one slot is provided on a side wall of the groove, a spring strip is provided on a bottom surface of the groove, a protrusion for engaging with the at least one limit projection is provided on the spring strip, a via hole passing through a thickness of the pedestal body is provided on the bottom surface of the groove, and the via hole abuts on the spring strip.

2. The pedestal according to claim 1 , wherein, the via hole is at least opposite to a free end of the spring strip.

3. The pedestal according to claim 1 , wherein, the support and the pedestal body are configured so that the at least one limit projection across the protrusion abuts against the protrusion, in a state that the clamping hook is located in a rotation stop position in the at least one slot.

4. The pedestal according to claim 1 , wherein, the at least one slot includes two slots, and the slots are distributed symmetrically with respect to a central axis of the cylindrical upright column as a symmetry axis.

5. The pedestal according to claim 4 , wherein, the limit projection is located between the two slots.

6. The pedestal according to claim 1 , wherein, the at least one slot includes a plurality of slots, and the slots are distributed symmetrically with respect to the central axis of the cylindrical upright column as the symmetry axis; the at least one limit projection includes a plurality of limit projections, and the limit projections and the slots are disposed alternately.

7. The pedestal according to claim 1 , wherein, a reinforcing rib is disposed in a region corresponding to the at least one slot at an inner side of the wall so as to strengthen intensity of the at least one slot.

8. The pedestal according to claim 1 , wherein, a first side opening communicating with the via hole is provided on the pedestal body, and a second side opening corresponding to the first side opening is provided in a region of the wall.

9. The pedestal according to claim 1 , wherein, a cylindrical structure made of plastic material is disposed in a center of the cylindrical upright column, a cylindrical projection for matching with the cylindrical structure is disposed in a center of the groove, and the cylindrical projection and the cylindrical structure are configured to be able to be connected with each other fixedly.

10. The pedestal according to claim 1 , wherein, a connection handle for connecting with a display device is disposed on an end of the cylindrical upright column away from the pedestal body.

11. A display apparatus, comprising: the pedestal according to claim 1 , and a display device installed on the pedestal.

12. An illumination apparatus, comprising: the pedestal according to claim 1 , and a lamp installed on the pedestal.
