Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of electronic equipment, and in particular to a supporting device and a component. Background Art
[0002] At present, electronic devices such as mobile phones and tablet computers are increasingly becoming important office productivity tools in the form of supporting devices with keyboards. The supporting device provides support for the electronic device. Specifically, the electronic device can be attached to the supporting device to replace the user holding the electronic device. In addition, the electronic device can be connected to the keyboard to form a notebook structure, which is convenient for the user to operate the keyboard while viewing the electronic device.
[0003] When the electronic device is supported by the support device, the electronic device has a horizontal screen support state and a vertical screen support state relative to the support device. In the process of switching between the horizontal screen support state and the vertical screen support state of the electronic device supported by the current support device, the electronic device needs to be separated from the support device and then the direction of the electronic device is rotated to achieve the switching of the support state of the electronic device.
[0004] However, since the electronic device is separated from the supporting device, the tilt angle of the supporting device will change, which will further cause the tilt angle of the electronic device to change, affecting the user experience.
[0005] Therefore, how to ensure that the tilt angle of the electronic device remains unchanged when the electronic device switches between the horizontal screen support state and the vertical screen support state is a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently by those skilled in the art.

[0023] It can be seen from the above content that: the first shaft is connected to the sliding mechanism, and the height of the first shaft can be adjusted when the rotating plate rotates, thereby changing the relative position of the first end of the rotating plate to the second connecting plate, ensuring that the distance from the relative position of the first end of the rotating plate to the second connecting plate to the relative position of the second end of the rotating plate to the second connecting plate remains unchanged.
[0024] In one possible embodiment, the sliding mechanism includes: a slide rail, which is fixed to the first connecting plate along the width direction; a slider, which is slidably connected to the slide rail, and the slider can be fixed at a first preset position and a second preset position on the slide rail, and the first axis is fixed to the slider.

[0053] At present, electronic devices such as mobile phones and tablet computers are increasingly becoming important office productivity tools in the form of supporting devices with keyboards. The supporting device provides support for the electronic device. Specifically, the electronic device can be attached to the supporting device to replace the user holding the electronic device. In addition, the electronic device can be connected to the keyboard to form a notebook structure, which is convenient for the user to operate the keyboard while viewing the electronic device.
[0054] It should be noted that, in the description of the embodiments of the present application, words such as "first" and "second" are only used for the purpose of distinguishing the description and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or order.
[0055] For the common structure of support device 01000, please refer to Figure 1 As shown, Figure 1 It is a schematic diagram of the structure of the supporting device 01000.
[0056] The supporting device 01000 includes a first body 01 and a second body 02. The first body 01 includes a first sub-body 0100 and a second sub-body 0200, and the first sub-body 0100 and the second sub-body 0200 are rotatably connected. The first sub-body 0100 and the second sub-body 0200 rotate relative to each other, changing the angle between the two. The second body 02 is rotatably connected to the second sub-body 0200, and when the second body 02 and the second sub-body 0200 rotate relative to each other, the angle between the two changes.
[0057] In some embodiments, the second body 02 has a keyboard structure.
[0058] When the supporting device 01000 is used to support the electronic device, the electronic device has two supporting states relative to the supporting device 01000, including a horizontal screen supporting state (see Figure 2 Figure a) and vertical screen support status (see Figure 2 (Fig. c).
[0059] When the user's usage needs are different, the electronic device needs to be switched between the horizontal screen support state and the vertical screen support state. For common switching methods, see Figure 2 As shown. Among them, Figure 2 , the process of the electronic device 3 switching from the horizontal screen support state to the vertical screen support state is shown.
[0060] It should be noted that the electronic device in this article can be a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a tablet computer accessory, a wearable device, a vehicle-mounted device, a laptop computer, an ultra-mobile personal computer (UMPC), a netbook, a personal digital assistant (PDA) and other mobile terminals. The embodiments of the present application do not impose any special restrictions on the specific form of the electronic device. For ease of understanding, the following content is described using the electronic device as a tablet computer as an example.
[0061] Figure 2 The electronic device 3 is a supporting device for a tablet computer as an example, and other electronic devices 3 may refer to the description of this application.
[0062] When the electronic device 3 is mounted on the supporting device 01000, the electronic device 3 is attached to the first split body 0100, and in some embodiments, the connection can be made by magnetic adsorption, snap connection, or bonding. The tilt angle of the electronic device 3 relative to the second body 02 can be changed by the relative rotation of the first split body 0100 and the second split body 0200 and the rotation between the second split body 0200 and the second body 02.
[0063] When the electronic device 3 rotates to a preset tilt angle, the electronic device 3 abuts against the second body 02, and the second split body 0200, the electronic device 3 and the second body 02 form a stable triangular support, so that the electronic device 3 maintains the preset tilt angle, and the angle between the electronic device 3 and the second split body 0200 is α1.
[0064] Figure 2 Figure a shows that the electronic device 3 is in a horizontal screen support state. When the support state of the electronic device 3 needs to be switched, the user applies external force to separate the electronic device 3 from the first split body 0100; the separated electronic device 3 is rotated 90° in the rotation direction in figure b, and then the rotated electronic device 3 is attached to the first split body 0100, so that the electronic device 3 is switched to the vertical screen support state in figure c.
[0065] Combination Figure 1From the structure of the first body 01, it can be seen that when the electronic device 3 is separated from the first split body 0100, the triangular structure formed by the second split body 0200, the second body 02 and the electronic device 3 is destroyed, that is, the first split body 0100 lacks support, so that the first split body 0100 cannot be maintained in the current position. Therefore, the tilt angle of the electronic device 3 that is rotated and then attached to the first split body 0100 may be different from the tilt angle of the electronic device 3 on the first split body 0100 before rotation.
[0066] by Figure 2 For example, the angle between the electronic device 3 in the vertical screen support state and the second split body 0200 after rotation is α2, and the angle between the electronic device 3 in the horizontal screen support state and the second split body 0200 before rotation is α1. After the state is switched on the above-mentioned supporting device 01000, α1 and α2 are not equal.
[0067] It should be noted that the rotation direction of the electronic device 3 may also be opposite to the rotation direction in Figure b. The process of switching the electronic device 3 from the vertical screen support state to the horizontal screen support state is the same as the above switching process, the only difference is that the rotation direction of the electronic device 3 is opposite, and the specific switching process is not repeated here.
[0068] If the tilt angle of the electronic device 3 changes after switching between the horizontal screen support state and the vertical screen support state, the user experience will be affected.
[0069] In order to ensure that the inclination angle of the electronic device 3 remains the same before and after the electronic device 3 switches between the horizontal screen support state and the vertical screen support state, an embodiment of the present application provides a support device 1000, which enables the support device 1000 to form a triangular support to ensure that the inclination angle of the electronic device remains unchanged before and after the support state of the electronic device is switched, thereby ensuring a good user experience.
[0070] In order to make those skilled in the art clearly understand the present application scheme, the following will be combined with the attached examples of the present application. Figures 3 to 5 , clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application.
[0071] in, Figure 3 It is a schematic structural diagram of the supporting device 1000 disclosed in an embodiment of the present application in a first working state.
[0072] It should be noted that, in the present invention, the support device 1000 can support the electronic device in a vertical screen support state when in the first working state; and can support the electronic device in a horizontal screen support state when in the second working state. The following content is described using the support device 1000 in the first working state as an example, and the support device 1000 has the same structure in the second working state.
[0073] The supporting device 1000 includes a first body 1 , and the first body 1 includes a first connecting plate 100 , a second connecting plate 200 , a rotating plate 300 , a rotating assembly 400 and a rotating shaft 500 .
[0074] The first connecting plate 100 and the second connecting plate 200 are rotatably connected via a rotating shaft 500. The first connecting plate 100 and the second connecting plate 200 rotate relative to each other to change the angle between them.
[0075] The rotating plate 300 is rotatably connected to the second connecting plate 200 via a rotating assembly 400. In some embodiments, the rotating plate 300 can also move relative to the second connecting plate 200 along the width direction of the second connecting plate 200.
[0076] When the supporting device 1000 is in the first working state, the rotating plate 300 is placed vertically relative to the first connecting plate 100 .
[0077] The following combination Figure 4 The working state switching process of the supporting device 1000 in the embodiment of the present application is described, wherein: Figure 4 The switching process of the supporting device 1000 in the embodiment of the present application from the second working state to the first working state is as follows: Figure 4 Figure a is a schematic diagram of the structure of the supporting device 1000 when it is in the second working state. Figure 4 Figure b is a schematic structural diagram of the supporting device 1000 when it is in the first working state.
[0078] When the supporting device 1000 is in the second working state, the first connecting plate 100 and the second connecting plate 200 are relatively rotated to a preset angle, the rotating plate 300 is relatively fixed to the first connecting plate 100, and the rotating plate 300 is placed horizontally relative to the first connecting plate 100. The second connecting plate 200, the rotating plate 300 and the base plate on which the supporting device 1000 is placed form a triangular structure, so that the angle between the horizontally placed rotating plate 300 and the second connecting plate 200 is β1, and can be maintained at this angle.
[0079] It should be noted that the substrate can be understood as a table top, which is not shown in the figure.
[0080] When the supporting device 1000 switches from the second working state to the first working state, Figure 4 The rotating plate 300 is rotated in the direction of rotation shown in FIG. a. After the rotating plate 300 is rotated 90°, the rotating plate 300 is in a vertical position relative to the first connecting plate 100, and the angle between the vertically placed rotating plate 300 and the second connecting plate 200 is β2, and can be maintained at this angle.
[0081] It should be noted that during the rotation of the rotating plate 300 , the rotating plate 300 is always in contact with the base plate, and the angle between the rotating plate 300 and the second connecting plate 200 remains unchanged, that is, the position of the first connecting plate 100 remains unchanged during the rotation of the rotating plate 300 .
[0082] Since the position of the first connecting plate 100 remains unchanged during the rotation of the rotating plate 300, the position of the second connecting plate 200 also remains unchanged, so that the second connecting plate 200, the rotating plate 300 and the base plate always maintain a triangular structure in the second working state, so that β1 and β2 are equal in size, thereby ensuring that the inclination angle of the horizontally placed rotating plate 300 is the same as the inclination angle of the vertically placed rotating plate 300; and achieving the stability of the rotating plate 300 in the two placement states.
[0083] For the process of the support device 1000 switching from the first working state to the second working state, see Figure 4 The switching process is different in that the rotation direction of the rotating plate 300 is opposite.
[0084] In some embodiments, the shape of the rotating plate 300 is not circular, and the distance between the rotating assembly 400 of the rotating plate 300 and the base plate will change during the rotation of the rotating plate 300. In order to prevent the tilt angle of the rotating plate 300 from changing, the rotating plate 300 in the present application can move along the width direction of the first connecting plate 100 during rotation to ensure that the relative position of the rotating plate 300 and the second connecting plate 200 is always the same from the base plate, thereby ensuring that the position of the second connecting plate 200 remains unchanged, and further ensuring that the tilt angle of the rotating plate 300 remains unchanged during the rotation.
[0085] In order to ensure that the tilt angle of the rotating plate 300 remains unchanged before and after the rotation, the distance that the rotating plate 300 moves along the width direction of the second connecting plate 200 needs to be limited.
[0086] Combination Figure 5 The moving distance of the rotating plate 300 is described. Figure 5 It is a front view of the rotating plate 300 when it is placed horizontally and vertically.
[0087] Figure 5 The rotating plate 300 is a rectangular plate as an example, and the rotating assembly 400 is connected to the center of the rotating plate 300. The length of the rotating plate 300 is set to L1, and the width is set to L2. During the rotation process of the rotating plate 300 from horizontal placement to vertical placement, the rotating plate 300 moves upward along the width direction of the second connecting plate 200, and the moving distance is (L1-L2) / 2; otherwise, it moves downward by (L1-L2) / 2.
[0088] Combined with the above calculations, it can be seen that when the rotating plate 300 in the present application is placed horizontally, the distance from the point where the rotating plate 300 and the rotating shaft 500 are in contact with the side of the rotating plate 300 and the substrate is in contact with the distance from the point where the rotating plate 300 and the rotating shaft 500 are in contact with the side of the rotating plate 300 and the substrate is in contact with the distance when the rotating plate 300 is placed vertically.
[0089] That is, the connection direction between the first end and the second end of the first connecting plate 100 is the width direction of the first connecting plate 100 in this article, and the second end of the first connecting plate 100 is rotatably connected to the first end of the second connecting plate 200 via the rotating shaft 500; the second end of the second connecting plate 200 is connected to the base plate, and during the switching process of the rotating plate 300 between horizontal placement and vertical placement, the distance from the relative position of the rotating plate 300 and the rotating shaft 500 to the relative position of the rotating plate 300 and the second end of the second connecting plate 200 remains unchanged.
[0090] By rotating and moving the rotating plate 300 , the rotating plate 300 can have the same inclination angle in the two states. On this basis, by adjusting the rotating shaft 500 , the rotating angle ranges corresponding to the two states of the rotating plate 300 can be the same.
[0091] The above content introduces the effect of the supporting device 1000 in combination with the switching of the working state of the supporting device 1000. Figures 6 to 9 The specific structure and connection relationship of the supporting device 1000 in the embodiment of the present application are described in detail.
[0092] Figure 6 is an assembly relationship diagram of the rotating plate 300 and the first connecting plate 100, Figure 7 is an assembly relationship diagram of the first connecting plate 100 and the second connecting plate 200; Figure 8 It is a schematic diagram of the structure of the rotating shaft 500.
[0093] The first connecting plate 100 includes a connecting plate body 101, a slide rail 103 and a slider 104. The connecting plate body 101 is a rectangular plate member, which is used for detachably fixed connection with the electronic device 3. One end of the connecting plate body 101 is rotatably connected to the second connecting plate 200 via a rotating shaft 500, and the other end has a first through hole 102, and the shape and size of the first through hole 102 are the same as those of the camera of the electronic device; the slide rail 103 is installed in the middle position of the plate body 101 and extends along the width direction of the connecting plate body 101, and the slider 104 is slidably matched with the slide rail 103.
[0094] The rotating plate 300 includes a rotating plate body 301 and a second through hole 302 and a mounting through hole 303 formed on the rotating plate body 301. The second through hole 302 has the same shape and size as the first through hole 102, and the second through hole 302 overlaps with the first through hole 102 when the rotating plate 300 is placed horizontally.
[0095] The rotating assembly 400 includes a first shaft 401 and a fastener 402. The first end of the first shaft 401 is fixedly connected to the slider 104, the rotating plate 300 is rotatably sleeved on the first shaft 401 through the mounting through hole 303, the fastener 402 is mounted on the second end of the first shaft 401, and the rotating plate 300 is axially limited on the first shaft 401 by the fastener 402.
[0096] In some embodiments, the length of the first shaft 401 along the axial direction is the same as the thickness of the rotating plate 300 to prevent the thickness of the supporting device 1000 from being too large.
[0097] It should be noted that the specific structure of the first shaft 401 and the fastener 402 can be set according to different needs. As long as the rotating plate 300 can rotate on the first shaft 401 and can be axially limited along the first shaft 401, it is within the protection range.

[0100] The sliding mechanism formed by the slider 104 and the slide rail 103 realizes the movement of the rotating plate 300 relative to the first connecting plate 100 . However, the sliding mechanism in the present application includes but is not limited to the sliding mode of the slider 104 and the slide rail 103 .

[0103] The first blade 502 is fixedly connected to the first assembly position, and the second blade 503 is fixedly connected to the second assembly position. At least one of the first blade 502 and the second blade 503 can be rotatably connected to the second shaft 501, and the first blade 502 and / or the second blade 503 has a damping force when rotating relative to the second shaft 501, so as to ensure that the second connecting plate 200 and the rotating plate 300 can maintain a desired state on the base plate.
[0104] In some embodiments, the second shaft 501 includes an inner shaft and a cylinder, wherein the cylinder is sleeved on the outer side of the inner shaft and has an avoidance groove opened along the circumferential direction on the cylinder, and one of the first blade 502 and the second blade 503 passes through the avoidance groove and is fixedly connected to the inner shaft, and the other is fixedly connected to the cylinder.
[0105] It should be noted that the connection method between the first blade 502 and the second blade 503 and the second shaft 501 is not limited to the above connection method.
[0106] The angle range of the relative rotation between the first blade 502 and the second blade 503 can be set according to different needs and is not limited here.
[0107] The rotating shaft 500 in the present application is a damping rotating shaft, which can realize multi-angle stepless adjustment, thereby realizing multi-angle stepless adjustment of two placement states of the rotating plate 300, further improving the user experience.
[0108] In some embodiments, in order to ensure that the rotating plate 300 can be stabilized at the corresponding moving position before and after moving along the second connecting plate 200, the present application combines Figure 6 and Fig. 9 The connection method between the rotating plate 300 and the second connecting plate 200 is further described. Fig. 9 It is an assembly relationship diagram when the rotating plate 300 is placed vertically.

[0110] In some embodiments, the slider 104 has a positioning groove, and the bottom and top of the slide rail 103 have elastic protrusions. When the slider 104 slides to the bottom or top, it will engage with the elastic protrusion to achieve a limited connection between the slider 104 and the slide rail 103. Under the external force of the user, the elastic protrusion will separate from the positioning groove, and the slider 104 can move along the slide rail 103.
[0111] The limiting connection method between the slider 104 and the slide rail 103 can be set according to different needs, and the present application includes but is not limited to the above connection method.
[0112] It should be noted that: when the slider 104 in this article is fixed to the lower end of the slide rail 103, the rotating plate 300 is located at the first preset position of the first connecting plate 100, and the rotating plate 300 does not rotate relative to the first connecting plate 100, and the rotating plate 300 is placed horizontally; when the slider 104 is fixed to the top end of the slide rail 103, the rotating plate 300 is located at the second preset position of the first connecting plate 100, and the rotating plate 300 is rotated 90° relative to the first connecting plate 100, and the rotating plate 300 is placed vertically.
[0113] Herein, when the rotating plate 300 is placed in a horizontal position, it can be considered that the rotating plate 300 is in an initial position.
[0114] The above content discloses a specific structure of the supporting device 1000 . Those skilled in the art will appreciate that, in some embodiments, the rotating plate 300 and the second connecting plate 200 may also be connected in other ways to achieve movement in the width direction.
[0115] In some embodiments, in order to increase the function of the support device 1000, other functional components may be added on the basis of the structure of the support device 1000 disclosed above. Fig.10 Take this as an example to illustrate: Fig.10 is another structural schematic diagram of the supporting device 1000.
[0116] The supporting device 1000 further includes a second body 2 based on the above disclosed structure, and the first body 1 and the second body 2 are two separate parts. In some embodiments, the first body 1 and the second connecting plate 200 can also be rotatably connected. The connection method of the first body 1 and the second connecting plate 200 is not limited here.
[0117] It should be noted that the supporting device for separating the first body 1 and the second body 2 and the supporting device for connecting the first body 1 and the second body 2 are all within the protection scope. The above-mentioned substrate can also be the second body 2.
[0118] The second body 2 includes but is not limited to an integrated charging management module, a power management module, a battery, a Bluetooth module, and a keyboard, wherein the battery can provide power for the Bluetooth module and the keyboard, and the charging management module can be used to power the battery. In some embodiments, the charging management module can be a charging port. The Bluetooth module can be used to wirelessly connect the keyboard of the second body 2 to the electronic device 3, and the electronic device 3 can be controlled by the keyboard on the second body 2.
[0119] The above content describes the specific structure of the support device 1000. In order to better reflect the user experience, the following Fig.11 The process of switching the supporting state of the electronic device when it is used on the supporting device 1000 is described. Fig.11 This is the process of switching the electronic device from the horizontal screen support state to the vertical screen support state in the embodiment of the present application. Fig.11 The middle picture a shows the electronic device in a horizontal screen support state. Fig.11 Figure b in the middle shows the electronic device in a vertical screen support state.
[0120] When the electronic device 3 is connected to the supporting device 1000, the electronic device 3 is detachably fixedly connected to the rotating plate 300. In an optional embodiment, the electronic device 3 and the rotating plate 300 include but are not limited to being connected by magnetic adsorption, snap connection or adhesive connection.
[0121] In some embodiments, in order to prevent the electronic device 3 from interfering with the substrate during the rotation of the rotating plate 300, the outer contour of the rotating plate 300 is not less than the outer contour of the electronic device 3. In an optional embodiment, the rotating plate 300 is a rectangular plate and has the same size as the electronic device 3, so that the electronic device 3 is completely attached to the rotating plate 300.
[0122] The camera assembly of the electronic device 3 is exposed through the first through hole 102 and the second through hole 302 .
[0123] Fig.11 When the electronic device 3 is in the horizontal support state in FIG. a, the support device 1000 is in the second working state, the electronic device 3 is completely fitted with the horizontally placed rotating plate 300, and a stable triangular structure is formed between the rotating plate 300, the second connecting plate 200 and the base plate. Under the support of the support device 1000, the electronic device 3 is maintained in the horizontal support state, and the angle between the electronic device 3 and the second connecting plate 200 is β1.
[0124] After the electronic device 3 and the rotating plate 300 rotate 90° along the rotation direction in FIG. a, the supporting device 1000 is in the first working state, and the electronic device 3 rotates to the vertical placement position along with the rotating plate 300. The electronic device 3 is in Fig.11 In Figure b, the screen is in a vertical support state, and the angle between the electronic device 3 and the second connecting plate 200 is β2.
[0125] During the synchronous rotation of the electronic device 3 and the rotating plate 300, the electronic device 3 will move along the width direction of the second connecting plate 200 to ensure that the triangular structure between the rotating plate 300, the second connecting plate 200 and the substrate remains unchanged from before the rotation. Therefore, during the rotation of the electronic device 3 from the horizontal screen support state to the vertical screen support state, β1 is equal to β2, that is, the inclination angle of the electronic device 3 relative to the substrate remains unchanged.
[0126] In the above process, when the electronic device 3 switches state, the rotating plate 300 needs to rotate and move. In some embodiments, when the rotating shaft 500 has a damping force, under the damping force of the rotating shaft 500, the electronic device 3 can move first and then rotate when switching state.
[0127] For example: when the electronic device 3 is in a horizontal screen support state with a tilt angle of 120°, the process of switching the electronic device 3 from the horizontal screen support state to the vertical screen support state is: the electronic device 3 first slides upward to the top end together with the rotating plate 300 relative to the first connecting plate 100 and remains fixed, and then the electronic device 3 rotates 90° to a vertical screen support state. The tilt angle of the electronic device 3 in the vertical screen support state can still be maintained at 120° without changing, thereby ensuring the consistency of the tilt angle of the electronic device 3 before and after the state change, which is beneficial to improving the user experience.
[0128] In some embodiments, when the electronic device 3 is in the vertical screen support state, the top of the electronic device 3 has a charging port to ensure that the electronic device 3 can still maintain the charging function in the vertical screen support state. The rotation direction of the electronic device 3 is limited by the position of the charging port, but the electronic device 3 is not limited to rotating in this direction.
[0129] In this paper, the rotating plate 300 and the first body 1 are placed to form a basically stable triangular structure, thereby realizing a bistable state of the electronic device in a horizontal screen support state and a vertical screen support state.
[0130] use Fig.11 In the supporting device shown, the first body 1 and the second body 2 are buckled together to sandwich the electronic device 3, and the first body 1 protects the back of the electronic device 3, and the second body 2 protects the front of the electronic device 3.
[0131] In some embodiments, the outer side of the first body 1 and the outer side of the second body 2 are connected as a whole through a covering leather case, and the bending part where the first body 1 and the second body 2 are connected protects the side of the electronic device.
[0132] In order to further increase the function of the supporting device 1000, in some embodiments, a wireless charging module is integrated on the first body 1. After the electronic device 3 is connected to the first body 1, the wireless charging module can be used to charge the electronic device 3.
[0133] Of course, a charging connector, such as a pogo pin (precision connector), may also be installed on the first body 1 and / or the second body 2 to electrically connect the electronic device 3 to the first body 1 or the second body 2 and charge the electronic device 3 .
[0134] The principles and implementation methods of the present invention are described in this article using specific examples. The description of the above embodiments is only used to help understand the method and core ideas of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made to the present invention without departing from the principles of the present invention, and these improvements and modifications also fall within the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
