A telescopic rod structure includes an upper rod and a lower rod. The upper rod includes a first rod body and a second rod body. A diameter of the first rod body is less than a diameter of the second rod body. A rod stepped surface is formed between the first rod body and the second rod body. An outer wall of the second rod body defines a guide groove. The lower rod defines a first through hole and a second through hole. A diameter of the first through hole is less than a diameter of the second through hole. A hole stepped surface is formed between the first through hole and the second through hole. A rib is arranged on the second through hole. The second rod body is sleeved in the second through hole. The first rod body upwards passes through the first through hole.

A retractable column structure includes a metal outer tubular member, a retaining bracket, and an inner tubular member. The outer tubular member includes a wall having outer, inner and end surfaces. The outer tubular member includes slots extending from the end surface to the inner surface. A rear end of each slot includes a hook protruding out of the inner surface. The retaining bracket includes a frame member abutted against the wall and locking hooks inserted into the inner surface and locked onto each corresponding hook. The inner tubular member moveably penetrates into the retaining bracket disposed between the tubular members and is concealed inside the outer tubular member. Accordingly, excellent support of inner and outer tubular members can be achieved for stable sliding therebetween.

The invention provides an improved infant dining chair including a seat unit, a dining table unit, two front chair leg adjusting units, a front chair leg unit, two rear chair leg adjusting units and a rear chair leg unit. The seat unit is pivoted with two front and two rear connecting pipe bodies, and the dining table unit. Each of the connecting pipe bodies is sleeved with one of the chair leg adjusting units. The chair leg unit is provided with two front supporting pipe bodies including a plurality of height adjusting holes. Each of the front elastic positioners is engaged in one of the front height adjusting holes, and each of the rear elastic positioners is engaged in one of the rear height adjusting holes.

An autonomous mobile device (AMD) includes a telescoping mast with sensors on top that are connected to a cable running through the mast. An inner section of the mast includes a bobbin that secures cables. The bobbin has a shaft and features that guide cables to helically wind around the shaft. The bobbin reduces stress on the cable as the mast moves. The mast is lifted by a rack that includes a portion with teeth and a portion without. The portion with teeth is driven by a motor. The portion without teeth connects the rack to a spool. The toothless section reduces stress on the toothed portion of the rack as it spools or unspools. The AMD includes a hinge to tilt a display. To securely position the hinge on a shaft, the shaft is spun after assembly so that a push nut cuts a retention groove in the shaft.

A retractable column structure includes a metal outer tubular member, a retaining bracket, and an inner tubular member. The outer tubular member includes a wall having outer, inner and end surfaces. The outer tubular member includes slots extending from the end surface to the inner surface. A rear end of each slot includes a hook protruding out of the inner surface. The retaining bracket includes a frame member abutted against the wall and locking hooks inserted into the inner surface and locked onto each corresponding hook. The inner tubular member moveably penetrates into the retaining bracket disposed between the tubular members and is concealed inside the outer tubular member. Accordingly, excellent support of inner and outer tubular members can be achieved for stable sliding therebetween.

An adjustable assembly for a bicycle includes a first support having an interior surface and a second support slidably positioned within at least a portion of the first support. One of the first support and the second support is adapted to attach to a first bicycle portion, and the other of the first support and the second support is adapted to attach to a second bicycle portion. Further, the second support comprises an expansion portion configured to be moved between an expanded position and a retracted position. The expansion portion is configured to engage the interior surface of the first support when the expansion portion is in an expanded position. In addition, the first support is configured to be selectively moved relative to the second support when the expansion portion is permitted to assume a retracted position.

A telescopic rod structure includes an upper rod and a lower rod. The upper rod includes a first rod body and a second rod body. A diameter of the first rod body is less than a diameter of the second rod body. A rod stepped surface is formed between the first rod body and the second rod body. An outer wall of the second rod body defines a guide groove. The lower rod defines a first through hole and a second through hole. A diameter of the first through hole is less than a diameter of the second through hole. A hole stepped surface is formed between the first through hole and the second through hole. A rib is arranged on the second through hole. The second rod body is sleeved in the second through hole. The first rod body upwards passes through the first through hole.

According to one aspect of the present invention there is provided an adjustable mechanism for connecting two or more shafts, including at least a first shaft having an external surface with an outer diameter and a second shaft which is hollow at a first end, wherein a spring is anchored to the first end of the second shaft, the spring having an inner diameter of similar dimensions to the outer diameter of the first shaft, the spring configured such that when a force is applied to the spring its inner diameter is greater than the outer diameter of the first shaft so that the second shaft can move over the first shaft to a desired position relative to the first shaft, and when the force is no longer applied to the spring it is biased to return to its original inner diameter to bear against the external surface of the first shaft.

An adjustable assembly for a bicycle includes a first support having an interior surface and a second support slidably positioned within at least a portion of the first support. One of the first support and the second support is adapted to attach to a first bicycle portion, and the other of the first support and the second support is adapted to attach to a second bicycle portion. Further, the second support comprises an expansion portion configured to be moved between an expanded position and a retracted position. The expansion portion is configured to engage the interior surface of the first support when the expansion portion is in an expanded position. In addition, the first support is configured to be selectively moved relative to the second support when the expansion portion is permitted to assume a retracted position.

A passive locking mechanism for a telescoping structure includes a stud fixed to a first panel section, a lower pawl coupled to a second panel section, an upper pawl coupled to the second panel section operable to engage the lower pawl, and a lock wedge coupled to a third panel section. The lock wedge is operable to engage the upper and lower pawls. In a retracted position of the telescoping structure, the lower pawl is engaged with the lock wedge, such that the second panel section is locked in place relative to the third panel section, and the first panel section is free to move relative to the second panel section.
