When the rear cover 46 is coupled to the bracket 54, the sleeve portion 52 is sleeved onto one end of the bracket 54, with the clamping structures 521 disposed on the outer surface of the bracket 54. The clamping member 48 is screwed onto the clamping structures 521, and the clamping member 48 is rotated to tighten the clamping structures 521 against the bracket 54, thereby securing the rear cover 46 to the bracket 54.

[0054] In the embodiment of the fixing device 10 / 10A of the present invention, no matter whether the fixing device 10 / 10A is mounted on a wall or on a bracket 54 , the fixing device 10 / 10A can be easily assembled and disassembled into and out of an electronic device, such as a camera or surveillance device with a base. Figure 6A and Figure 6B They are schematic diagrams of different viewing angles of a base of an electronic device to which a fixing device according to an embodiment of the present invention is applied, Figure 6C FIG is a partial three-dimensional cross-sectional diagram of the combination of the base and the fixing device of the electronic device according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 6A and Figure 6B As shown, the base 60 has a bottom surface 601, an annular side wall 602 and a positioning structure 62. In one embodiment, the bottom surface 601 is provided with a recess 64, which is, for example, semicircular and has a first side wall 641 and a second side wall 642, wherein the first side wall 641 is, for example, a straight flat side wall perpendicular to the bottom surface 601, and the second side wall 642 is, for example, an arcuate side wall along the annular side wall 602; the positioning structure 62 includes two slots 66, which are respectively provided at both ends of the second side wall 642 and adjacent to the first side wall 641, wherein a matching inclined surface 68 is formed on the bottom surface 601 and adjacent to the slot 66. In one embodiment, the matching inclined surface 68 can mate with the latch portion 22 (marked at Figure 1 )'s inclined surface 223 of the hook portion 222 matches the interference.

[0055] Following the above instructions, please also refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 6B and Figure 6CAs shown, when the base 60 is to be combined with the fixing device 10 to lock the electronic device, the two slots 66 or the two matching inclined surfaces 68 of the base 60 are aligned with the latch portion 22 of the fixing device 10. Through the interference of the matching inclined surfaces 68 and the inclined surface 223 of the hook portion 222 of the latch portion 22, the hook portion 222 slides into and is locked in the slot 66. In this way, through the combination of the latch portion 22 and the positioning structure 62, the base 60 is accommodated in the accommodating space 18 of the housing 12 and is combined with the housing 12.

[0056] When the base 60 is to be disassembled from the accommodating space 18, the user applies force to the two pressing portions 20 at the same time, so that the two pressing portions 20 are simultaneously subjected to external opposite forces and are both directed toward the internal space 36 of the shell (marked at Figure 2 ) moves, so that the base 42 (marked at Figure 3 ) compression reset element 16 (marked on Figure 3 ), and in conjunction with this, the latch portions 22 move in the first direction D1, away from their corresponding slots 66. This disengages the slots 66 from the latch portions 22, allowing the base 60 to be detached from the accommodating space 18. After the base 60 is separated from the accommodating space 18, the compressed restoring element 16, no longer subject to external force, uses its own elastic restoring force to push the pressing element 14 back to its original position, facilitating subsequent assembly with the base 60 of the electronic device.

[0057] In the fixing device 10 / 10A of the embodiment of the present invention, the user can easily lock the base 60 of the electronic device and the fixing device 10 / 10A together; and when the base 60 is to be disassembled and separated, it is necessary to apply force to both pressing parts 20 at the same time to unlock it. This will help protect the electronic device from accidentally falling due to accidentally pressing one of the pressing parts 20 of the fixing device 10 / 10A, thereby ensuring the stability of the combination and ensuring a high degree of safety in use.

[0058] On the other hand, when the fixing device 10 / 10A is combined with the base 60 of the electronic device, in order to prevent the transmission line electrically connected to the electronic device from being bent and damaged, the fixing device 10 / 10A of one embodiment of the present invention includes a wiring structure. Figure 1 As shown, the fixing device 10 without a rear cover is used as an illustration.

A wiring groove 56 is provided on one side of the housing 12. The wiring groove 56 passes through the side wall 242 of the housing 18 to extend to the accommodating space 18. Figure 6BAs shown, a wire groove 70 is provided on the base 60. Specifically, the base 60 includes a bottom surface 601 and an annular sidewall 602. The bottom surface 601 is provided with a recess 64. The recess 64 is, for example, semicircular and has a first sidewall 641 and a second sidewall 642. The wire groove 70 is formed in the center of the first sidewall 641. Preferably, to enhance wiring stability, a guide groove 72 is further formed in the second sidewall 642. The guide groove 72 is formed in the center of the second sidewall 642 and extends through the annular sidewall 602. In one embodiment, the guide groove 72 and the wire groove 70 are disposed opposite each other. Figure 7 1 is a schematic diagram of the combination of a base and a fixing device according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in the figure, when the base 60 is combined with the fixing device 10, the guide groove 72 corresponds to the wiring groove 56 and is exposed through the wiring groove 56.

[0059] Furthermore, if Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the fixing device 10A has a rear cover 46 and a tightening piece 48, by which the shell 12 is fixed to the bracket 54, wherein a guide notch 74 is formed at the top edge 502 of the rear cover 46. When the shell 12 is combined with the rear cover 46, the side wall 242 of the shell 12 is suitable for contacting and fitting with the top edge 502 of the rear cover 46, and the guide notch 74 is correspondingly connected to the wiring trough 56.

[0060] Figures 8A to 8D FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of the assembly process between the transmission line and the fixing device and the base according to an embodiment of the present invention, wherein the fixing device 10A having a rear cover 46 and a tightening member 48 is used as an example. Figure 8A As shown, the transmission line 82 to be electrically connected to the electronic device 80 is inserted into the bracket 54, and one end of the transmission line 82 is passed through the guide notch 74 of the rear cover 46 and is limited by the wiring groove 56; then, as shown in FIG. Figure 8B As shown, the electronic device 80 is located above the fixing device 10A, and the transmission line 82 enters the recess 64 of the base 60 along the guide groove 72 of the base 60; and as shown in FIG. Figure 8C As shown, the transmission line 82 crosses the recess 64 to pass through the wire slot 70 and is electrically connected to the electronic device 80; thereafter, as shown in FIG. Figure 8DAs shown, the base 60 of the electronic device 80 is assembled with the fixture 10A. In one embodiment, during the assembly of the base 60 and fixture 10A, some of the transmission cable 82 may bend and accumulate within the recess 64 of the base 60. In this case, the transmission cable 82 exposed at the bottom of the bracket 54 is pulled downward to eliminate this accumulation of the transmission cable 82 within the recess 64, thereby preventing the transmission cable 82 from being bent and damaged. Guided by the wiring trough 56 and guide slot 72, the transmission cable 82, which originally ran vertically through the bracket 54, now crosses the recess 64 in a nearly horizontal arrangement and enters the wiring trough 70 for connection to the input / output ports of the electronic device 80. This prevents the transmission cable 82 from being loosened from the port due to gravity due to its vertical routing. Furthermore, the wiring trough 56 and guide slot 72 maintain the stability of the transmission cable 82, thereby preventing bending and damage.

[0061] In the fixing device and the base of the embodiment of the present invention, the design of the wiring trough, the guide groove, and the wire trough can prevent the transmission line from being bent and damaged when the fixing device and the base are connected. In addition, the design of the wiring trough can be optionally combined with the above-mentioned embodiment with the pressing element and the reset element to easily lock the fixing device and the base, and prevent the electronic device from accidentally falling due to accidental contact, thereby having the advantage of high safety in use.
