DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
(7) The present invention will be clearer from the following description when viewed together with the accompanying drawings, which show, for purpose of illustrations only, the preferred embodiment in accordance with the present invention.
(8) Please refer to
(9) The seat body 20 is disposed below the main body 10 and rotatably connected to the main body 10, and a bottom portion of the seat body 20 has two legs 24 which have a preset distance therebetween; the central axle 30 vertically penetrates the main body 10 and the seat body 20 and movable along a vertical direction, the main body 10 and the seat body 20 are rotatable about the central axle 30 relative to each other, and a bottom portion of the central axle 30 penetrates the seat body 20 for a sucking disc 70 to be arranged thereon; the two supporting members 40 are respectively swingably pivoted to the two legs 24 of the seat body 20, and the central axle 30 is located between the two supporting members 40; and the driving structure is attached to the main body 10 and connected to the central axle 30 to optionally move the central axle 30 upward.
(10) Specifically, in this embodiment, the main body 10 includes two shells 11, 12, the two shells 11, 12 define a receiving space, the main body 10 has an upper hole 14, a lower hole 15 and a side opening 16, the upper hole 14, the lower hole 15 and the side opening 16 respectively communicate with the receiving space, the upper hole 14, the lower hole 15 and the side opening 16 are respectively defined by the two shells 11, 12, the central axle 30 penetrates the upper hole 14, the receiving space and the lower hole 15, and the main body 10 is connected to the seat body 20 via the lower hole 15; the main body 10 extends outward from above the side opening 16 to form an upper pressing rod 13, the driving structure includes a lower pressing rod 51, one of two ends of the lower pressing rod 51 is pivoted within the receiving space, the other of the two ends of the lower pressing rod 51 protrudes beyond the main body 10 from the side opening 16, the lower pressing rod 51 further forms a through hole 511, the through hole 511 extends vertically, the central axle 30 is disposed through the through hole 511, the central axle 30 has a radially-enlarged portion 32 above the through hole 511 of the lower pressing rod 51, and the lower pressing rod 51 can be pressed to swing toward the upper pressing rod 13 so as to push the radially-enlarged portion 32 to lift the central axle 30 upward. In addition, the bottom portion of the central axle 30 has a connecting portion 31 which has a greater outer diameter, the connecting portion 31 is for being connected to the sucking disc 70, and a spring 60 is further sleeved on the central axle 30 and bounces between the bottom portion of the seat body 20 and the connecting portion 31 to make the central axle 30 have a tendency to move downward.
(11) Regarding a rotation structure of the main body 10 and the seat body 20, a top portion of the seat body 20 extends upward to form a neck portion 22, a top portion of the neck portion 22 has an annular edge 21 which protrudes outward, an outer diameter of the annular edge 21 is greater than an inner diameter of the lower hole 15 of the main body 10 and is received within the receiving space, and the neck portion 22 is rotatably disposed through the lower hole 15 of the main body 10. Preferably, the bottom portion of the main body 10 protrudes downward to form a plurality of first protrusions 151, the first protrusions 151 are arranged around the lower hole 15, the top portion of the seat body 20 protrudes upward to form a plurality of second protrusions 23, the second protrusions 23 are arranged around the neck portion 22, and the first protrusions 151 correspond to the second protrusions 23 so that the main body 10 and the seat body 20 are releasably positionable with each other.
