Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of mobile phone stands, and more particularly to a stand linkage structure. Background Technology

[0002] With the widespread use of electronic devices such as mobile phones and tablets, stands for supporting these devices are becoming increasingly common. Existing electronic device stands typically include a base, a support component, and a support for holding the electronic device. To meet the viewing angle requirements of different usage scenarios, a rotatable structure is usually provided between the support component and the support component, allowing users to adjust the support angle of the electronic device.

[0003] However, some existing brackets have multiple components that can rotate relative to each other, and the rotation of each component is relatively independent when adjusting the angle. When users need to change the position or support angle of electronic devices, they often need to adjust different rotating parts separately to bring the support to the required position and angle, which is a cumbersome process. Especially when the support rotates at a large angle relative to the base, the posture of the support may also need to be adjusted separately by the user, which is not conducive to achieving quick and convenient bracket posture adjustment.

[0004] Therefore, how to make different rotating components in the bracket work together during the adjustment process to simplify the angle adjustment operation of the electronic device bracket is a technical problem that needs to be solved in this field. Summary of the Invention

[0010] Preferably, the base is provided with a fixing member, the fixing member is provided with a storage hole, one end of the second torsion spring is disposed in the storage hole, and the second support member is provided with a clearance hole, the clearance hole corresponding to the fixing member.

[0011] Preferably, the first support member is provided with a button, the button is rotatably connected to the first support member, the button is provided with a first abutment and a second abutment, the length of the second abutment is greater than that of the first abutment, and the button is elastically connected to the first support member.

[0012] Preferably, the back of the first support member is provided with a fixing groove, the second support member is rotatable to abut against the fixing groove, the fixing groove is provided with a first inclined surface and a second inclined surface, and one end of the second support member abuts between the first inclined surface and the second inclined surface.

[0013] Preferably, the button is connected to the first support member via a pivot. When one end of the button is pressed, the end near the first and second abutments lifts up, the second support member separates from the abutment of the second abutment member, and the second support member separates from the fixing groove.

A first gear and a second gear that mesh with each other are respectively provided on the bottom support and the base. During the rotation of the first support member relative to the base, the meshing relationship between the first gear and the second gear can drive the bottom support to generate a corresponding linkage rotation.

[0017] Therefore, when adjusting the bracket posture, the base can synchronously change its relative posture with the rotation of the first support member, eliminating the need for the user to make multiple independent adjustments to the first support member and the base, thus simplifying the bracket angle adjustment process, improving the convenience and efficiency of adjustment, and facilitating the rapid adjustment of the electronic equipment supported by the base to the required usage posture.

Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0021] It should also be understood that the terminology used in this specification is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to limit the invention. As used in this specification and the appended claims, the singular forms “a,” “an,” and “the” are intended to include the plural forms unless the context clearly indicates otherwise.

[0022] It should also be further understood that the term "and / or" as used in this specification and the appended claims refers to any combination of one or more of the associated listed items and all possible combinations, and includes such combinations.

[0023] Please see Figures 1-3 The present invention provides a bracket linkage structure 10, including a base 20, a first support member 30 and an operating member 40. The first support member 30 is rotatable relative to the base 20, the operating member 40 is elastically connected to the base 20, and the operating member 40 is connected to the first support member 30 by a snap-fit.

[0024] The first support member 30 can be a magnetic panel, a phone holder panel with clamping function, or a base support function. In short, it only needs to be able to fix electronic devices such as mobile phones and tablets.

[0025] The operating component 40 is elastically connected to the inner wall of the base 20 via a spring piece 41. The operating component 40 includes a pressing component 42 and a first latch 43 connected to each other. The pressing component 42 and the first latch 43 are vertically arranged in the projection direction. The first support component 30 is provided with a latching position 31, and the first latch 43 engages or disengages with the latching position 31. The base 20 is provided with a connecting hole 21, and the pressing component 42 passes through the connecting hole 21 and moves within the connecting hole 21.

[0026] Please see Figures 4-5The operating component 40 further includes a supporting component 44 and a sliding component 45 connected to each other. The supporting component 44 and the sliding component 45 are arranged perpendicularly to each other and are L-shaped. The supporting component 44 is located on the opposite side of the pressing component 42 and is connected to the spring piece 41. The first buckle 43 is located on the supporting component 44, and the sliding component 45 moves on the base 20. The base 20 is provided with two mounting components 22, which are spaced apart. The mounting components 22 are provided with guide components 23, which are arranged opposite to each other. The guide components 23 are provided with notches 24. The two ends of the spring piece 41 in the elastic direction pass through the notches 24 and are housed in the guide components 23. The sliding component 45 and the supporting component 44 are arranged to move between the two guide components 23.

[0027] The first support member 30 is rotatably connected to the base 33 via a first rotating shaft 32. The rotation of the first support member 30 can be achieved in two ways: First, a first torsion spring is provided on the first rotating shaft 32. When the operating member 40 is pressed, the first latch 43 and the latching position 31 separate, and the first support member 30 flips over via the first torsion spring. When folding for storage, the first support member 30 is folded and stored on the base 20. The latching position 31 contacts the first latch 43, causing the first latch 43 to move elastically. The first latch 43 engages with the latching position 31, thus securing the first support member 30 to the base 20.

[0028] In this embodiment, the rotation scheme of the first support member 30 is as follows: the bracket structure 10 further includes a second support member 50, one end of which is disposed on the base 20, and the second support member 50 and the base 20 are rotatable relative to each other. The other end of the second support member 50 abuts against the first support member 30. The second support member 50 is rotatably connected to the base 20 via a second rotating shaft 51, which is disposed on the mounting member 22. A second torsion spring 52 is disposed on the second rotating shaft 51, one end of which abuts against the second support member 50, and the other end of which abuts against the base 20. A fixing member 25 is disposed on the base 20, and a receiving hole 26 is disposed on the fixing member 25. One end of the second torsion spring 52 is disposed in the receiving hole 26. An avoidance hole 53 is disposed on the second support member 50, and the avoidance hole 53 corresponds to the fixing member 25.

[0029] The second support member 50 can be housed between the two mounting members 22. The back of the first support member 30 is provided with a fixing groove 34, and the second support member 50 can rotate to abut against the fixing groove 34. The fixing groove 34 is provided with a first inclined surface 35 and a second inclined surface 36, and one end of the second support member 50 abuts between the first inclined surface 35 and the second inclined surface 36.

[0030] Please see Figure 6 and Figure 7 The first support member 30 is provided with a button 37, which is rotatably connected to the first support member 30. The button 37 is provided with a first abutment 371 and a second abutment 372, the second abutment 372 being longer than the first abutment 371. The button 37 is elastically connected to the first support member 30. The first support member 30 is provided with a spring, which is elastically connected to the button 37 and is used for the reset of the button 37. When the button 37 is pressed, the second support member 50 separates from the abutment of the second abutment 372 and separates from the fixing groove 34. The second support member 50 is then flipped into the base 20 by the second torsion spring 52 on the second support member 50. The button 37 is connected to the first support member 30 via a pivot, so that the two ends of the button 37 act as a seesaw. When one end of the button 37 is pressed, the end near the first support member 371 and the second support member 372 lifts up, and the second support member 50 separates from the second support member 372 and separates from the fixing groove 34. When the end near the first support member 371 and the second support member 372 is pressed, the other end of the button 37 lifts up.

[0031] The first support member 30 is also provided with a base support 60, which is rotatably connected to the first support member 30. When the first support member 30 is unfolded from the base 20, the base support 60 is also unfolded from the first support member 30 simultaneously. When the first support member 30 is folded onto the base 20, the base support 60 is also folded onto the first support member 30 simultaneously. The specific implementation method is as follows: A first gear 61 is provided on the base 60, and the first gear 61 is located at the rotatable connection between the base 60 and the first support member 30. A second gear 27 is provided at the rotatable connection between the base 20 and the first support member 30. The first gear 61 and the second gear 27 mesh. The base 60 is used to support the side or bottom of the electronic device.

[0032] The base 60 and the first support member 30 are provided with receiving holes, and the first gear 61 is disposed on the receiving holes.

[0033] The base 60 rotates at different angles relative to the first support 30 from the base 20. The base 60 rotates 90 degrees relative to the first support 30, while the first support 30 rotates 60 degrees relative to the base 20, meaning the base 60 rotates 150 degrees relative to the base 20. This difference in rotation angle is achieved through the gear ratio of the meshing first gear 61 and second gear 27.

[0034] Pressing the operating element 40 causes the second support member 50 to flip via a torsion spring. At this time, the first support member 30 rotates by abutting against the second support member 50, and the base 60 rotates synchronously with the first support member 30 via gear meshing. When the first support member 30 unfolds, the base 60 also unfolds in conjunction. Pressing the button 37 on the first support member 30 causes the second support member 50 to separate from the fixing groove 34, and continuously pressing the button 37 causes the first support member 30 to snap into place with the base 20.

[0035] Please see Figure 8 In another embodiment, a first magnetic element 28 is provided on the base 20, and a second magnetic element 38 is provided on the button 37. The first magnetic element 28 and the second magnetic element 38 are magnetically connected. When the button 37 is pressed, the elastic force of the second torsion spring 52 on the second support member 50 is greater than the magnetic attraction between the first magnetic element 28 and the second magnetic element 38, causing the first support member 30 to unfold from the base 20. Pressing the button 37 and continuously bringing the first support member 30 close to the base 20 connects the first magnetic element 28 and the second magnetic element 38, and the bracket is in a folded state. That is, when there is a gap between the first magnetic element 28 and the second magnetic element 38, the elastic force of the second torsion spring 52 is greater than the magnetic attraction between the first magnetic element 28 and the second magnetic element 38; when the first magnetic element 28 and the second magnetic element 38 are connected, the elastic force of the second torsion spring 52 is less than the magnetic attraction between the first magnetic element 28 and the second magnetic element 38.

[0036] An extension 39 is provided on the first support member 30. The extension 39 is located at the edge of the projection direction of the button 37. The extension 39 extends from the first support member 30 and is used to separate the first support member 30 and the base 20.

[0037] The technical solutions provided in this application embodiment may include the following beneficial effects: The bracket linkage structure provided in this application embodiment allows the first support member to rotate relative to the base and the bottom support to rotate relative to the first support member. A first gear and a second gear that mesh with each other are respectively provided on the bottom support and the base. During the rotation of the first support member relative to the base, the meshing relationship between the first gear and the second gear can drive the bottom support to generate a corresponding linkage rotation.

[0038] Therefore, when adjusting the bracket posture, the base can synchronously change its relative posture with the rotation of the first support member, eliminating the need for the user to make multiple independent adjustments to the first support member and the base, thus simplifying the bracket angle adjustment process, improving the convenience and efficiency of adjustment, and facilitating the rapid adjustment of the electronic equipment supported by the base to the required usage posture.

Any person skilled in the art can easily conceive of various equivalent modifications or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed in the present invention, and these modifications or substitutions should all be covered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
