The support body 11 may include a plurality of legs 111, for example Figure 1 Two tripods 111 are used as an example, but the present invention is not limited thereto. In other embodiments, the support body 11 may include three, four or more tripods 111. In other embodiments of the present invention, the support body 11 may not include the tripods 111, but may be used to support the connector 2 in other ways. In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 As shown, the support body 11 may include a support surface 112. When the support member 1 and the connecting member 2 are engaged with each other, the support surface 112 may contact the bottom 21 of the connecting member 2. More specifically, the bottom 21 may include a bottom surface 21S. When the support member 1 and the connecting member 2 are engaged with each other, the support surface 112 may contact the bottom surface 21S of the bottom 21 to support the connecting member 2. In the present invention, the support surface 112 is located at the top of the support body 11. In the support member 1, the portion above the support surface 112 is the protrusion 12, and the remaining portion is the support body 11 of the support member 1.

[0060] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the "bump" refers to a portion of the support member 1 that can be at least partially inserted into the connector 2. In the present invention, the "mutual engagement" means that at least part of the bump 12 can slide in the slide groove 211 and fix the support member 1 and the connector 2 to each other.

[0061] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 As shown, the protrusion 12 may have a T-shaped appearance. In more detail, the protrusion 12 may include a first portion 121 and a second portion 122, and the first portion 121 is connected to the second portion 122, wherein the protrusion 12 may be connected to the support body 11 through the second portion 122. In addition, in the gravity direction Z, the projection area of ​​the first portion 121 may be larger than the projection area of ​​the second portion 122. In addition, in the gravity direction Z, the projection area of ​​the first portion 121 may be larger than the projection area of ​​the second opening 21H of the slide groove 211. In this way, when the support member 1 and the connecting member 2 are engaged with each other, the protrusion 12 can be connected to the slide groove 211 (such as the first portion 121). Figure 2 As shown) engage with each other so that the protrusion 12 will not separate from the connecting member 2 in the gravity direction Z.

[0062] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the connector 2 includes a back 22, which is connected to the bottom 21 and includes a first opening 22H, wherein the protrusion 12 is inserted into the first opening 22H and engages with the slide groove 211. In more detail, the protrusion 12 is inserted into the first opening 22H in a direction perpendicular to the gravity direction Z (e.g., direction X) or in a direction 75 to 105 degrees with the gravity direction, so that the protrusion 12 and the slide groove 211 engage with each other. The direction in which the protrusion 12 is inserted into the first opening 22H is parallel to the direction X in which the slide groove 211 extends. In the present invention, the first opening 22H has a shape similar to or corresponding to the protrusion 12, so as to facilitate the insertion of the protrusion 12 into the first opening 22H. In the present invention, the "back of the connector" refers to a portion of the connector 2, the extension line of which has an angle between 45 and 170 degrees with the extension line of the bottom 21 of the connector 2. In the present invention, the “extension direction of the slide groove” may refer to a direction parallel to the bottom 21 of the connecting member 2 and away from the back 22 of the connecting member 2 (eg, direction X).

[0063] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the bottom 21 includes a second opening 21H, and the second opening 21H is connected to the first opening 22H, wherein in the top view direction of the support device (for example, in the gravity direction Z), the second opening 21H overlaps with the slide groove 211. In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the slide groove 211 has a first length L1, and the first opening 22H has a second length L2, wherein the first length L1 is different from the second length L2. The "first length" refers to the maximum dimension of the slide groove 211 in the direction X parallel to the extension of the slide groove. The "second length" refers to the maximum dimension of the first opening 22H in the direction Z parallel to the gravity. In one embodiment of the present invention, the first length L1 of the slide groove 211 may be substantially equal to the length of the second opening 21H, and therefore, the length of the second opening 21H is different from the second length L2 of the first opening 22H. The "length of the second opening" refers to the maximum dimension of the second opening 21H in the direction X parallel to the extension of the slide groove.

[0064] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 2 As shown, the slide groove 211 may include retaining walls, such as a first retaining wall 211a, a second retaining wall 211b, and a third retaining wall 211c, wherein the first retaining wall 211a is connected to the second retaining wall 211b, and the second retaining wall 211b is connected to the third retaining wall 211c, so as to form the slide groove 211 that can accommodate the protrusion 12. The first retaining wall 211a and the third retaining wall 211c are parallel to the extension direction X of the slide groove 211, and the second retaining wall 211b is perpendicular to the extension direction X of the slide groove 211. The distance between the second retaining wall 211b and the back 22 may be the first length L1 of the slide groove 211.

[0065] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the slide groove 211 may include a slide groove surface 211S. When the support member 1 and the connecting member 2 are engaged with each other, the protrusion 12 may contact the slide groove surface 211S. Figure 2 As shown, the slide groove 211 may have a plurality of protruding structures P1. Therefore, when the slide groove 211 includes a plurality of protruding structures P1, the slide groove surface 211S is a rough surface, that is, the slide groove surface 211S is a surface including a plurality of protruding structures P1. When the support member 1 and the connecting member 2 are engaged with each other, a surface 12S (such as Figure 1 The rough surface can be used to increase the friction between the protrusion 12 and the connecting member 2, thereby improving the effect of the mutual engagement between the supporting member 1 and the connecting member 2.

[0066] In one embodiment of the present invention, before the support member 1 and the connecting member 2 are engaged with each other, Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, there is a first distance D1 between the bottom surface 21S of the bottom 21 and the rough surface 211S of the slide groove 211, and there is a second distance D2 between the surface 12S of the protrusion 12 and the supporting surface 112, wherein the difference between the first distance D1 and the second distance D2 is less than or equal to 0.5 millimeters (mm) (i.e., D1-D2≦0.5mm), thereby improving the effect of the mutual engagement between the support member 1 and the connecting member 2.

[0067] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 2 As shown, in the gravity direction Z, the projection area of ​​the slide groove 211 can be larger than the projection area of ​​the second opening 21H, so that when the support member 1 and the connecting member 2 are engaged with each other, the protrusion 12 of the support member 1 can be engaged in the slide groove 211, so that the protrusion 12 will not be separated from the connecting member 2 in the gravity direction Z. In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 2 As shown, the slide groove 211 has a first width W1, and the second opening 21H has a second width W2, wherein the first width W1 is greater than the second width W2. The "first width" refers to the maximum dimension of the slide groove 211 in the direction X (for example, in the direction Y) perpendicular to the extension direction of the slide groove 211, for example, it can refer to the distance between the first retaining wall 211a and the third retaining wall 211c. The "second width" refers to the maximum dimension of the second opening 21H in the direction X (for example, in the direction Y) perpendicular to the extension direction of the slide groove 211.

[0068] In one embodiment of the present invention, before the support member 1 and the connection member 2 are engaged with each other, the size of the protrusion 12 may be larger than the size of the slide groove 211, so that the effect of the engagement between the support member 1 and the connection member 2 can be improved. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, before the support member 1 and the connecting member 2 are engaged with each other, the protrusion has a third width W3, and the slide groove 211 has a first width W1, wherein the difference between the third width W3 and the first width W1 is less than or equal to 0.5 millimeters (mm) (i.e., W3-W1≦0.5mm). The "third width" refers to, for example, the maximum size of the protrusion 12 in the direction X perpendicular to the extension of the slide groove 211 (for example, in the direction Y).

[0069] Figure 4 Schematic diagram of a top view of a support device according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 4 FIG. 1 is a top view schematic diagram of the support member and the connecting member after they are engaged with each other, and for the convenience of explanation, Figure 4 The partially enlarged view in the dashed line omits the bumps.

[0070] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 4 As shown, when the support member 1 and the connecting member 2 are engaged with each other, the retaining wall (for example, Figure 2The gap between the first retaining wall 211a and / or the third retaining wall 211c and the protrusion 12 can be 0 mm to 0.2 mm. In this way, the effect of the mutual engagement between the support member 1 and the connecting member 2 can be enhanced, and the reliability of the support device can be improved.

[0071] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the bottom 21 of the connecting member 2 may include a first area 212 and a second area 213, wherein the first area 212 is adjacent to the slide groove 211, and the second area 213 surrounds the first area 212 and the slide groove 211, wherein in the top view direction of the supporting device (e.g., the gravity direction Z), the first area 212 may be aligned with the supporting surface 112 (e.g., the support surface 113) of the supporting body 11. Figure 1 shown) overlap.

[0072] In one embodiment of the present invention, the thickness of the first region 212 may be greater than the thickness of the second region 213. Thus, when the support member 1 and the connector 2 are engaged with each other, the first region 212 may provide greater support strength to reduce the risk of damage to the support device.

[0073] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the first region 212 may have a lattice structure design to enhance the supporting strength, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0074] Figures 5 to 7 They are schematic diagrams of a portion of a supporting device according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figures 5 to 7 The supporting devices are respectively Figure 1 Similar, except for the following differences.

[0075] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 5 As shown, the protrusion 12 may have an inverted trapezoidal appearance, and the "trapezoidal" refers to a convex quadrilateral with a set of parallel opposite sides when viewed from a side (for example, the Y-axis or X-axis direction). In more detail, the protrusion 12 may include a first portion 121 and a second portion 122, and the first portion 121 is connected to the second portion 122, wherein the protrusion 12 may be connected to the support body 11 through the second portion 122. In addition, in the gravity direction Z, the projection area of ​​the first portion 121 may be larger than the projection area of ​​the second portion 122. In this way, when the support member 1 and the connecting member 2 are engaged with each other, the protrusion 12 will not separate from the connecting member 2 in the gravity direction Z. In addition, since the first opening 22H has a shape similar to or corresponding to the protrusion 12, so as to facilitate the insertion of the protrusion 12 into the first opening 22H, therefore, in this embodiment, as Figure 5 As shown, the first opening 22H may be in the shape of an inverted trapezoid.

[0076] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 6 As shown, the protrusion 12 may have a rectangular appearance. In more detail, the protrusion 12 may include a first portion 121 and a second portion 122, and the first portion 121 is connected to the second portion 122, wherein the protrusion 12 may be connected to the support body 11 through the second portion 122. In addition, in the gravity direction Z, the projection area of ​​the first portion 121 may be larger than the projection area of ​​the second portion 122. In this way, when the support member 1 and the connecting member 2 are engaged with each other, the protrusion 12 will not separate from the connecting member 2 in the gravity direction Z. In addition, before the support member 1 and the connecting member 2 are engaged with each other, the first portion 121 has a fourth width W4 (not shown in the figure), and the slide groove 211 (as shown in the figure) has a fourth width W4 (not shown in the figure). Figure 2 ) has a first width W1 (as shown Figure 2 ), wherein the difference between the fourth width W4 and the first width W1 is less than or equal to 0.5 millimeters (mm) (i.e., W4-W1≦0.5mm). The "fourth width" refers, for example, to the maximum dimension of the protrusion 12 in the direction X extending perpendicular to the slide groove 211 (e.g., in the direction Y), and before the second portion 122 is engaged, it has a third distance D3 (not shown in the figure), and the third distance D3 is equal to the first distance D1 (e.g., Figure 1 The difference between the first opening 22H and the second opening 22H is less than or equal to 0.5 mm (ie, D1-D3≦0.5 mm), so that the effect of the mutual engagement between the support member 1 and the connecting member 2 can be improved. In addition, since the first opening 22H has a shape similar to or corresponding to the protrusion 12, it is convenient to insert the protrusion 12 into the first opening 22H. Therefore, in this embodiment, Figure 6 As shown, the first opening 22H may be rectangular.

[0077] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 7 As shown, the protrusion 12 may have an I-shaped or sideways H-shaped appearance. In more detail, the protrusion 12 may include a first portion 121, a second portion 122 and a third portion 123. The third portion 123 is located between the first portion 121 and the second portion 122 and respectively connects the first portion 121 and the second portion 122, wherein the protrusion 12 may be connected to the support body 11 through the second portion 122. In addition, in the gravity direction Z, the projection area of ​​the first portion 121 may be larger than the projection area of ​​the third portion 123. In this way, when the support member 1 and the connecting member 2 are engaged with each other, the protrusion 12 will not separate from the connecting member 2 in the gravity direction Z. In addition, before the support member 1 and the connecting member 2 are engaged with each other, the first portion 121 or the third portion 123 has a fifth width W5 (not shown in the figure), and the slide groove 211 (such as Figure 2 ) has a first width W1 (as shown Figure 2As shown, the difference between the fifth width W5 and the first width W1 is less than or equal to 0.5 millimeters (mm) (i.e., W5-W1≦0.5mm). The "fifth width" refers to the maximum size of the protrusion 12 in the extending direction X of the vertical slide groove 211 (for example, in the direction Y), so that the effect of the support member 1 and the connecting member 2 being engaged with each other can be improved.

[0078] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 7 As shown, in the gravity direction Z, the projection area of ​​the first portion 121 may be substantially equal to the projection area of ​​the second portion 122, but the present invention is not limited thereto. In addition, since the first opening 22H has a shape similar to or corresponding to the bump 12, it is convenient to insert the bump 12 into the first opening 22H. Therefore, in this embodiment, as shown in FIG. Figure 7 As shown, the first opening 22H may be in an I-shape or an inverted H-shape.

Fig. 8A This is a schematic diagram before the support member and the connecting member are engaged with each other. Figure 8B Schematic diagram of the support member and the connecting member after they are engaged with each other. In addition, the detailed structure of the support member and the connecting member can be as described above. Figures 1 to 7 As shown, no further description is given here.

[0080] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 and Fig. 8A As shown, the assembly method of the support device includes: providing a support member 1 and a connecting member 2, wherein the support member 1 includes a support body 11 and a protrusion 12, the protrusion 12 is connected to the support body 11, and the connecting member 2 includes a back 22, and the back 22 includes a first opening 22H. Figure 8B As shown, the protrusion 12 is inserted into the first opening 22H in a direction perpendicular to gravity (e.g., direction Z) or in a direction 75 to 105 degrees from the direction of gravity (e.g., direction X), so that the support member 1 and the connecting member 2 are engaged with each other. When the protrusion 12 is inserted into the first opening 22H, the protrusion 12 overlaps with the second opening 21H in the direction of gravity. Since the insertion direction of the support member 1 (e.g., direction X) is different from the direction of gravity Z, the situation in which the support member 1 is easily separated from the connecting member 2 due to the influence of gravity can be improved, thereby achieving the effect of saving costs or improving reliability. In addition, according to the structure of the present case, disassembly is easier, and the support device of the present invention can be repeatedly disassembled and used without being easily damaged.

[0081] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 8BAs shown, the support body 11 may include a support surface 112, the connecting member 2 may include a bottom 21, and the bottom 21 may include a bottom surface 21S. When the support member 1 and the connecting member 2 are engaged with each other, the support surface 112 may contact the bottom surface 21S of the bottom 21 of the connecting member 2 to support the connecting member 2.
