## Abstract

A support device includes a transmission device attached to a housing and having a carrier slidably attached to the housing, a driving device connected to the carrier for driving and moving the carrier up and down relative to the housing, an object attached to the carrier, a sensor element attached to the object for detecting an approaching of a user toward the object, a sensor member disposed close to the housing for detecting the approaching of the user toward the object, and a control device connected to the sensor element and to the sensor member for receiving signals from the sensor element and the sensor member, and the control device is connected to the driving device for driving and moving the carrier and the object relative to the housing to a selected position.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A support device comprising:
a housing including a chamber formed therein;
a transmission device attached to said housing, said transmission device including a carrier slidably attached to said housing and moveable up and down relative to said housing, and said transmission device including a driving device connected to said carrier for driving and moving said carrier up and down relative to said housing;
an object attached to said carrier and supported on said carrier;
a sensor element attached to said object for detecting an approaching of a user toward said object;
a sensor member disposed close to said housing for detecting the approaching of the user toward said object, said sensor member being selected from a sensor mat supported on a ground and disposed and located close to said housing; and
a control device connected to said sensor element and to said sensor member for receiving signals from said sensor element and said sensor member, and said control device being connected to said driving device for driving and moving said carrier up and down relative to said housing and for moving said object to a selected position relative to the user.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The support device as claimed in claim 1, wherein said transmission device includes a screw rotatably supported in said chamber of said housing, said carrier is threaded and engaged with said screw for allowing said carrier to be moved up and down relative to said housing with said screw.

### Claim 3 (depends on 2)

The support device as claimed in claim 2, wherein said transmission device includes a bearing member engaged in said housing and engaged with said screw for rotatably supporting said screw in said chamber of said housing.

### Claim 4 (depends on 2)

The support device as claimed in claim 2, wherein said driving device is engaged with said screw for rotating and driving said screw relative to said housing.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The support device as claimed in claim 1, wherein said housing includes an elongated passage formed therein and communicating with said chamber of said housing, said carrier includes an extension extended therefrom and slidably engaged in said passage of said housing for guiding and limiting said carrier to move up and down relative to said housing and for preventing said carrier from being rotated relative to said housing.
