Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of 3C digital accessories, in particular to a rotating shaft structure, a bracket and an electronic equipment accessory. Background Art

[0002] When using electronic devices such as mobile phones and tablets, they are usually equipped with stands to obtain different support angles. The stands usually need to be rotated to achieve angle adjustment, opening and storage, and the hinge structure becomes an indispensable component of the stand.

[0003] The existing shaft structure is usually implemented by a hinge structure, and the two hinges are connected by a shaft to realize the rotation between the two hinges. In order to reduce the wear caused by the friction between the shaft and the hinge during rotation, the shaft hole on the hinge is usually set as a non-closed loop annular structure, for example, an opening is set on the shaft hole. The setting of the opening enables the opening to provide a certain deformation space for the side wall of the shaft hole when the shaft rotates relative to the hinge, thereby increasing the shaft hole and reducing wear. After the rotation is completed, the side wall of the shaft hole can be deformed and restored to its original state. Such a design reduces the wear between the shaft and the hinge to a certain extent and increases the service life of the shaft structure, but there are also certain problems at the same time: when the user uses it improperly, it is easy to cause the force applied to the shaft structure to exceed the force it can withstand. At this time, it is easy to cause the side wall of the shaft hole to be unable to return to its original state after deformation, resulting in damage to the shaft structure. Utility Model Content

[0028] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the specific implementation methods of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0029] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of the present invention, the following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solution in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0030] It should be noted that the terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification and claims of the utility model and the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the terms used in this way can be interchangeable where appropriate, so that the embodiments of the utility model described herein can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described herein. In addition, the terms "including" and "having" and any of their variations are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions, for example, a process, method, system, product or device that includes a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units that are clearly listed, but may include other steps or units that are not clearly listed or inherent to these processes, methods, products or devices.

[0031] It should also be noted that the division of multiple embodiments in the present invention is only for the convenience of description and should not constitute a special limitation. The features in various embodiments can be combined and referenced to each other without contradiction.

[0032] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The present embodiment provides a rotating shaft structure including a first connecting member 1 and a rotating shaft 2. The first connecting member 1 includes a first connecting portion 10 and a rotating shaft connecting portion 20. The first connecting portion 10 is used to connect the first external member. The rotating shaft connecting portion 20 includes a main connecting portion 21 and an auxiliary connecting portion 22. Figure 3 and Figure 4The main connection part 21 includes a first shaft hole 210, and the auxiliary connection part 22 includes a second shaft hole 220. The rotating shaft 2 is simultaneously inserted into the first shaft hole 210 and the second shaft hole 220 so that the rotating shaft 2 is rotatably connected with the rotating shaft connection part 20. At the same time, the side wall of the first shaft hole 210 is set to a non-closed loop annular structure, and the side wall of the second shaft hole 220 is set to a closed loop annular structure. After the second outer part is connected with the rotating shaft 2, during the process of the first outer part rotating relative to the second outer part, the side wall of the first shaft hole 210 can be deformed (the deformation makes the first shaft hole 210 larger), thereby reducing the wear between the rotating shaft 2 and the side wall of the first shaft hole 210. At the same time, if the user uses it improperly and the force applied to the shaft structure exceeds the force it can withstand, this part of the force will be borne by the side wall of the second shaft hole 220. Since the side wall of the second shaft hole 220 is a closed-loop annular structure, it will not deform and can withstand a large pulling force. Therefore, the second shaft hole 220 can limit the side wall of the first shaft hole 210, and control the deformation of the side wall of the first shaft hole 210 within its tolerable range, which solves the problem that the user uses too much force and the side wall of the first shaft hole 210 cannot be reset after deformation, which ultimately leads to damage to the shaft structure.

[0033] The closed loop structure mentioned in the present application means that the side wall of the shaft hole is complete and there is no opening or other structure that damages the side wall of the shaft hole. Figure 2 In the auxiliary connection part shown by reference numeral 22, the side wall of the shaft hole provided thereon is a closed-loop annular structure; and a non-closed-loop annular structure means that the side wall of the shaft hole is destroyed by a structure such as an opening, so that the shaft hole is connected to the outside, for example Figure 4 In the first axial hole 210 shown in FIG. 1 , the side wall thereof is damaged due to the existence of the opening 211 , and the side wall cannot be closed to form a closed-loop annular structure.

[0034] Further reading Figure 3 and Figure 4The main connection part 21 also includes an opening 211 connected to the first shaft hole 210. The opening 211 is arranged on the side wall of the first shaft hole 210, and the opening 211 passes through the inner surface and the outer surface of the side wall of the first shaft hole 210. The inner surface refers to the surface in contact with the rotating shaft 2, and the outer surface is the surface opposite to the inner surface. The setting of the opening 211 passing through the inner surface and the outer surface of the side wall of the first shaft hole 210 makes the two ends of the side wall of the first shaft hole 210 forming the opening 211 to be spaced apart from each other. When the rotating shaft 2 rotates relative to the main connection part 21, the two ends of the side wall of the first shaft hole 210 forming the opening 211 can be deformed in a direction away from each other, thereby increasing the size of the first shaft hole 210, reducing the friction between the rotating shaft 2 and the side wall of the first shaft hole 210, thereby reducing the wear between the two during rotation. The reduced wear can effectively extend the number of rotations of the rotating shaft 2 and increase the service life of the entire structure. For example, if the opening 211 is not provided, the rotation number of the rotating shaft 2 is 3000 times. After 3000 rotations, the size of the first shaft hole 210 will increase due to wear, and friction will no longer be generated between the rotating shaft 2 and the first shaft hole 210, and the rotating shaft structure will fail. After the opening 211 is provided, the effective rotation number of the rotating shaft 2 can be increased to 5000 times or even more.

[0035] Further reading Figure 4 In one embodiment, the first connecting portion 10 and the opening 211 are arranged to be located on opposite sides of the first shaft hole 210. Figure 4 As can be seen from the figure, the inlet 211 is located on the left side of the first shaft hole 210, and the first connecting portion 10 is located on the right side of the first shaft hole 210, and the two are just opposite. This arrangement makes it easier for the side wall of the first shaft hole 210 to deform when the shaft 2 rotates, thereby reducing the wear between the shaft 2 and the side wall of the first shaft hole 210.

[0036] Further reading Figure 5 As can be seen from the figure, the opening 211 is arranged along the length direction of the main connecting part 21, and the opening 211 extends from one end of the main connecting part 21 in the length direction to the other end of the main connecting part 21 in the length direction. This arrangement can ensure that the side wall of the first shaft hole 210 deforms as a whole when it deforms, ensuring the deformation effect and better solving the problem of wear. Figure 6 and Figure 7 In another embodiment, it can also be understood that the main connecting portion 21 includes a first end face 21A, a second end face 21B and a side wall of a first axial hole 210 located between the two end faces, and the opening 211 is set through the first end face 21A and the second end face 21B.

[0037] Furthermore, the main connection part 21 and the auxiliary connection part 22 are arranged at intervals, so that the main connection part 21 will not be affected by the auxiliary connection part 22 when it is deformed.

[0038] Please also see Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 , this application provides various implementations of the shaft structure. Figure 3 In the embodiment, there is one main connection part 21 and two auxiliary connection parts 22 , and the two auxiliary connection parts 22 are respectively located at two ends of the main connection part 21 in the length direction. Figure 5 In the embodiment, the main connection part 21 and the auxiliary connection part 22 are each one, and in Figure 7 In the embodiment, there are two main connection parts 21 and one auxiliary connection part 22, and the auxiliary connection part 22 is sandwiched between the two main connection parts 21. Through different configurations, the rotating shaft structure can be applied to various different scenes and structures, thus enriching the application of the rotating shaft structure.

[0039] Furthermore, in order to prevent the deformation of the main connection part 21 from being affected by the auxiliary connection part 22, the length of the auxiliary connection part 22 can be set to be less than or equal to the length of the main connection part 21. When there are multiple main connection parts 21 or auxiliary connection parts 22, the corresponding length refers to the sum of the multiple lengths.

The first sub-connector 1A and the second sub-connector 1B can be assembled by welding, bonding, riveting, etc. to form a Figure 8 The complete first connector 1 is shown. Meanwhile, the structures of the first sub-connector 1A and the second sub-connector 1B may not be specifically limited, for example Fig. 9 In the embodiment, the first sub-connector 1A and the second sub-connector 1B are divided into halves. In other embodiments, they may not be divided into halves.

In other embodiments, the support member 3 can also be connected to the rotating shaft 2, and other accessories such as a protective case can be connected to the first connecting member 1.

[0042] Furthermore, the bracket can also include a second connecting member, which is configured to be connected to the rotating shaft 2 so that the first connecting member 1 and the second connecting member can rotate relative to each other. The first connecting member 1 and the second connecting member are then respectively connected to the bracket and accessories such as a protective shell to achieve fixation of the bracket and the protective shell.
