Patent ID: 10876561

Abstract:
A retractable column structure includes an outer tubular member (10), a retaining bracket (20) and an inner tubular member (30). The outer tubular member (10) includes a wall (11) having outer (111), inner (112) and end (113) surfaces. The outer tubular member (10) includes slots (114) extending from the end surface (113) to the inner surface (112). A rear end of each slot (114) includes a protrusion (115) protruding out of the inner surface (112). The retaining bracket (20) includes a frame member (21) abutted against the wall (11) and locking hooks (22) inserted into the inner surface (112) and locked onto each corresponding protrusion (115). The inner tubular member (30) moveably penetrates into the retaining bracket (20) disposed between the tubular members and is concealed inside the outer tubular member (10). Accordingly, excellent support of inner and outer tubular members can be achieved for stable sliding therebetween.
