Description

[0001] The invention relates to a selfie stick for a mobile phone, with an extendable and thus lengthenable handle and a holding device for a mobile phone.

[0002] Selfie sticks come in many variations, however, the handles of well-known selfie sticks are often still cumbersome even when folded, if foldable at all.

[0003] The object of the invention is to provide an improved selfie stick for a mobile phone, which allows for storage in the most space-saving way possible.

[0004] This problem is solved by a selfie stick for a mobile phone according to the features of claim 1.

[0005] According to the invention, a selfie stick for a mobile phone is provided, comprising an extendable and thus lengthenable handle and a holding device for a mobile phone, wherein the handle is rotatably mounted on the holding device relative to the latter in a plane parallel to a support plane for a mobile phone which is stretched by the holding device about an axis of rotation in a pivot joint, and wherein the handle is pivotably mounted in a pivot joint about a pivot axis on the pivot joint, wherein the handle is formed by several telescopic elements guided into one another, plate-shaped or in the form of a section of a cylindrical shell, wherein the telescopic element facing the holding device and articulated to it is guided as the telescopic end element of the handle in or on a positive guide formed in or on the holding device.wherein the telescopic end element is guided in the positive guidance by means of a bearing slide and the pivot joint with the pivot axis is formed between the telescopic end element and the bearing slide. This allows the handle to be stowed under the phone holder in a particularly elegant and effective way.

[0006] The forced guidance is advantageously designed in a groove shape and, in particular, is symmetrically designed on both sides.

[0007] Preferably, the bearing slide is designed to be extendable from the axis of rotation in the positive guide so far that the pivot axis of the pivot joint projects beyond the support plane clamped by the holding device.

[0008] Advantageously, the telescopic elements are each mounted and guided within one another in a particularly groove-shaped telescopic guide, such that only movement of the telescopic elements relative to each other is possible in an extension direction.

[0009] Accordingly, according to one embodiment of the invention, the telescopic elements with the position slide and the telescopic end element are designed to be slid together so far that the entire handle can be folded in behind the support plane stretched by the holding device.

[0010] Preferably, according to a further embodiment of the invention, the rotation of the handle in the pivot joint is held in individual locking positions, whereby a holding force must be overcome to rotate out of such a locking position.

[0011] Accordingly, it is advantageous that the holding force is produced by a mechanical locking mechanism under clamping of the axis of rotation and / or by magnetically interacting elements on the holding device and handle and / or by clamping through friction. Advantageously, the mechanical locking can be achieved by elastically prestressed extensions that engage in counterparts to form a positive fit.

[0012] According to one variant of the invention, for holding a mobile phone on the holding device, form-elastic extensions and / or a magnet for providing a magnetic holding force for magnetic interaction with a part of a mobile phone and / or an adhesive surface for connection with a surface of a mobile phone may be provided.

[0013] Further advantageous embodiments result from the further dependent claims or their possible subcombinations.
