Description
Inner wiring lifting device and height-adjustable furniture Technical Field The invention relates to the technical field of furniture, in particular to an inner wiring lifting device and height-adjustable furniture. Background In the prior art, when the lifting device is used as an accessory of the height-adjustable furniture, one end or two ends of the lifting device always have equipment which needs to communicate or supply power. The conventional mode is to use a cable drag chain to connect equipment needing power supply or communication outside the lifting device, and when the lifting device stretches and contracts, the cable drag chain moves along with the equipment, so that the equipment at the end part of the lifting device can work normally or communicate. However, the cable drag chain is large in size, so that the appearance of the cable drag chain is influenced by the appearance of the cable drag chain. In order to solve the problem that the cable drag chain is exposed, the prior art also discloses a lifting device with a built-in cable, and when the cable is arranged inside the lifting device, a spiral cable is generally selected to realize synchronous expansion of the cable and the lifting device. The spiral cable is wound on the three-dimensional space, so that the occupied space of the spiral cable is larger, in addition, in order to guide the expansion and contraction of the spiral cable, a telescopic sleeve is arranged in the lifting device, no matter the telescopic sleeve is sleeved on the outer side of the spiral cable or the spiral cable is sleeved on the outer side of the telescopic sleeve, the occupied space of the telescopic sleeve and the telescopic sleeve is further increased, so that the lifting device is larger in size, in addition, the expansion and contraction ratio (namely the ratio between the maximum length of the cable which can be stretched when being stressed and the minimum length of the cable in the natural contracted state) of the spiral cable is larger, the required cable length of the spiral cable is longer, the material cost of the cable is increased, and finally, the spiral cable cannot be applicable to cables (such as multi-core flat cables and coaxial cables) with harder core wires and cannot form stable spirals, so that the spiral cable has higher requirements on the required cable. Disclosure of Invention In order to solve the technical problems that the lifting device is large in size and the cost of cable materials is increased due to the fact that a spiral cable is arranged in the lifting device in the prior art, the invention provides the inner wiring lifting device and the height-adjustable furniture, the size of the lifting device can be effectively reduced, the cable length can be effectively shortened under the condition of the same stretching length, the cost of the cable materials is reduced, and meanwhile, the requirement on the cable materials is low. In order to achieve the technical purpose, the inner wiring lifting device provided by the invention comprises: a telescoping assembly comprising at least two nested tubular members; a drive unit for driving the at least two tubular members to move axially relative to each other to adjust the telescopic assembly; At least one cable is arranged in the telescopic component in a penetrating way; A cable guide device for guiding the cable to be retracted inside the retraction assembly; the cable guiding device is arranged as a chain guiding device and comprises a plurality of chain links axially arranged along the tubular component, the adjacent chain links are pivotally connected and can pivot relatively around the pivot points, so that the chain guiding device is cooperatively folded or stretched in the telescoping process of the telescoping assembly, and the cable is attached to the chain guiding device and is adaptively folded or stretched. The cable guiding device is arranged as a chain guiding device and comprises a plurality of chain links axially arranged along a tubular component, and the adjacent chain links are pivotally connected and can pivot relatively around pivot points, so that the chain guiding device is cooperatively folded or stretched by driving the chain links to rotate in the telescoping process of the telescoping assembly, and the cable is attached to the chain guiding device and is adaptively folded or stretched, and because the structure of the chain guiding device is flattened, the cable is flattened after being attached to the chain guiding device, and the cable can be arranged in a flattened space, so that the distance between the innermost side of the telescoping assembly and a driving unit is effectively reduced, and the volume of the lifting device is further reduced; in addition, if no cable guiding device is arranged to guide the cable to fold, the cable is extremely easy to form excessive bending under the extrusion of the pipe wall or the self to lead to signal attenuation
