Method of Controlling an Intelligent Height-Adjustable Table with Integrated Electronic Functions

The invention relates to the technical field of height-adjustable table, in particular to a method of controlling an intelligent height-adjustable table with integrated electronic functions.

As the modern office environment continues to evolve, smart height-adjustable tables have become one of the key pieces of furniture to enhance office comfort and efficiency. These tables achieve tabletop height adjustability through an electric mechanism, aiming to provide users with a working state more accords with human body engineering. However, while existing intelligent height-adjustable tables fulfill basic height adjustment needs, they typically lack comprehensive function integration, limiting their application potential in modern high-efficient office environments.

Design of traditional height-adjustable tables have focused on improving the user experience, such as providing basic lifting and lowering functions to accommodate different work postures, but it often neglected multifunctional needs for the table as a work center. For example, many height-adjustable tables lack practical functions such as integrated charging solutions, sound systems, light adjustments, and temperature-controlled coasters, all of which are increasingly popular requirements in modern office environments. In addition, in order to add these extra functions, users often need to purchase and install a variety of devices separately, which not only increases costs, but also clutters the workspace and detracts from overall office experience.

More importantly, existing intelligent height-adjustable tables face design and structural challenges when attempting to integrate additional electronic functions. In order to accommodate various electronic devices and manage their wiring, structure of the table often becomes complex and difficult to maintain, which not only raises cost of production, but also reduces aesthetics of the table and flexibility of user-defined functions. In addition, such designs are difficult to adapt to rapidly changing technology and user requirements, limiting long-term applicability and scalability of intelligent height-adjustable tables.

Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop an integrated control method for intelligent height-adjustable table that can elegantly integrate multiple electronic functions while maintaining simplicity of the table design and convenience of user operation. By integrating a flexible wiring control system and a scalable master controller, a highly customizable and easily scalable intelligent work environment can be provided to the user, thereby significantly enhancing functionality and adaptability of the table without sacrificing aesthetics and structural simplicity.

The technical problem to be solved by the invention is to provide a method of controlling an intelligent height-adjustable table with integrated electronic functions, as as to solve problems in background art.

The invention is realized through the following technical solutions, a method of controlling an intelligent height-adjustable table with integrated electronic functions, comprising following steps:

As a preferred technical solution, step (d) further comprises configuring a master controller to support wireless communication protocol to enable the user to remotely control lifting and lowering of the tabletop as well as switch and setting of electronic function modules via the application on the mobile device.

As a preferred technical solution, the wiring control system further comprises a table leg controller, which is mounted inside the table leg for receiving signals from the master controller and controlling lifting mechanism to adjust height of the tabletop.

As a preferred technical solution, the master controller is disposed on one side of the table and is connected to table leg controller via electric wire for centralized management of electronic function modules on the tabletop and height adjustment of the height-adjustable table.

As a preferred technical solution, the master controller is further connected to a power box which provides required power to the master controller and all electronic function modules connected via the wiring control system.

As a preferred technical solution, it further comprises at least one power strip, which is provided on one side of the power box and is electrically connected to the power box; the power strip is provided with a plurality of outlets for connecting and supplying power to external devices.

As a preferred technical solution, step (e) comprises using the master controller to selectively turn on or off external devices connected to the power strip.

As a preferred technical solution, the master controller is equipped with a wireless communication module that allows communication with the mobile application APP via wireless network, thus enabling remote control of function modules of the height-adjustable table.

As a preferred technical solution, the mobile application APP provides a graphical user interface that allows the user to monitor and adjust status of the electronic function modules on the tabletop, including but not limited to adjusting brightness of lights, volume control and switch of wireless charger.

As a preferred technical solution, the steps comprise providing one or more preset module slots for height-adjustable table, making operation of adding or removing electronic function modules simple and convenient.

Advantageous effects of the invention are as follows:

As shown in the accompanying drawings:

—lifting wireless speaker;—tabletop plate;—storage box;—power strip;—power box;—host bracket;—table leg controller;—master control box;—drawer;—tool box;—wireless charger;—hot/cold coaster;—table leg;—table foot;—table feet decorating part;—ambient light bar;—signal-controlling cable;—charging station.

All features disclosed in the specification, or all steps in disclosed method or process, may be combined in any manner except for mutually exclusive features and/or steps.

As shown fromto, an intelligent height-adjustable table of the invention comprises a height-adjustable table body, which is capable of electrically controlling lifting and lowering; one side of the height-adjustable table body is provided with a detachable tool box, and the other side thereof is provided with a host bracket;

Wherein, the height-adjustable table body includes a tabletop plate, lifting table legs, and table feet;

In the embodiment, one side of the power boxis also provided with a power strip, and the power stripis electrically connected to the power box; the power stripis provided with a plurality of outlets for plugging in external devices, and some external electronic devices can obtain power input through the power strip.

Wherein, other side of the draweris provided with a master control box, and a table leg controlleris provided at rear of the master control box; the master control boxis connected to the table leg controller, and lifting table legsare controlled by the table leg controllerto lift and lower, to meet needs of different usage scenarios; a plurality of signal-controlling cablesare drawn from output end of the master control box, and all function modules are connected to the master control boxthrough signal-controlling cables.

In addition, a hot/cold coasteris provided on one side of the height-adjustable table body, which is used to heat as well as cool the cup when the cup is placed on the hot/cold coaster;

In addition, a wireless chargeris provided on the height-adjustable table body for wirelessly charging cell phone.
