[0062] Various embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings. Although the present invention is described in conjunction with exemplary embodiments, it should be appreciated that this specification is not intended to limit the present invention to the exemplary embodiments described below. On the contrary, the present invention is intended to cover not only these exemplary embodiments, but also various alternative forms, modified forms, equivalent forms and other embodiments that may be included within the spirit and scope of the present invention as defined by the appended claims.

[0063] Below, refer to Figure 1 , the overall structure of the desktop extension bracket 1 of the present invention is described. Figure 1 It is a schematic diagram showing the overall structure of a desktop extension bracket 1 equipped with an expansion dock 2 according to the present invention.

[0064] like Figure 1As shown, the desktop extension bracket 1 of the present invention mainly includes a supporting member 11, a rotating member 12 and a fixing member 13. The supporting member 11 is rotatably fixed to the fixing member 13 via the rotating member 12, and an expansion dock 2 is embedded in the right side of the desktop extension bracket 1.

[0065] Specifically, the support member 11 includes a left support member 11 a , a right support member 11 b , and a connecting member 11 c . The left support member 11 a and the right support member 11 b are formed in substantially symmetrical shapes and are abutted together by the connecting member 11 c .

[0066] The left supporting member 11a and the right supporting member 11b are respectively constructed by splicing two triangular panels, and a part of the material inside the panel is hollowed out to form a hollow structure, so as to significantly reduce the overall structural weight.

[0067] Preferably, the left supporting member 11a and the right supporting member 11b are respectively formed by splicing two identical right-angled triangular panels, and the middle hollow parts of the right-angled triangular panels are identical to each other, thereby reducing the manufacturing difficulty and being suitable for mass production.

[0068] Below, refer to Figure 2 , the specific structure of the desktop extension bracket 1 of the present invention is described. Figure 2 It is a rear view of the desktop expansion bracket 1 equipped with the expansion dock 2 of the present invention observed from the back.

[0069] like Figure 2 As shown, the connecting member 11c of the supporting member 11 is formed as a long horizontal bar, through holes are provided at both ends of the horizontal bar, and threaded holes are also formed at approximately the middle position of the left supporting member 11a and the right supporting member 11b.

[0070] The left supporting member 11a and the right supporting member 11b are fixed together by aligning the through holes at both ends of the connecting member 11c with the threaded holes of the left supporting member 11a and the right supporting member 11b, and inserting bolts into the threaded holes and tightening them.

[0071] Furthermore, the positions of the two threaded holes are provided so that one end portion of each of the left supporting member 11 a and the right supporting member 11 b can abut against each other after being fixed by the connecting member 11 c .

[0072] Likewise, the length of the connecting member 11 c is set so that the bottoms of the left supporting member 11 a and the right supporting member 11 b are on the same straight line after abutting against each other, so that a portable terminal device can be placed thereon.

[0073] After the left supporting member 11a and the right supporting member 11b are in contact with each other through the connecting member 11c, Figure 2 As shown, a stable supporting structure can be formed by a triangular structure formed by two bolts and one end portion abutting against each other, and the structural weight of the device that can be tolerated can be increased.

[0074] In addition, the bottom of the left supporting member 11a and the right supporting member 11b is formed to extend a small portion vertically outward, and a small portion is vertically erected upward at the outermost position, thereby forming a slot I for placing a portable terminal device.

[0075] The distance that the bottoms of the left supporting member 11a and the right supporting member 11b extend vertically outward can be designed accordingly according to the thickness of the portable terminal device to be carried, so as to meet the use requirements of devices of different thicknesses.

[0076] During the specific operation, the operator can put the portable terminal device into the slot I from the top, or slide it into the slot I from the left side and place it on the supporting member 11 of the desktop extension bracket 1.

[0077] Since the desktop extension bracket 1 of the utility model adopts a semi-open design, the operator can place and take out the portable terminal device from the top or the side, thus being able to ideally meet the use requirements of a variety of devices of different shapes.

[0078] In addition, if Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the support member 11 of the desktop extension bracket 1 of the present invention is fixed to the fixing member 13 by the rotating member 12 in a manner that it can rotate relative to the fixing member 13 .

[0079] Specifically, if Figure 2 It is shown more clearly that the supporting member 11 is fixed to the rotating member 12 by rivets or the like, and the pitch angle of the supporting member 11 relative to the fixing member 13 can be adjusted, thereby adjusting the pitch angle of the placed portable terminal device to meet the operator's usage requirements.

[0080] The fixing member 13 is exemplified as a telescopic rod in the present disclosure, which can be fixed to a desktop through a fixed base, or clamped and fixed to the edge of an object through a clamping device. In addition, by adjusting the extension length of the telescopic rod as the fixing member 13, the height of the supporting member 11 can be adjusted, and then the height of the placed portable terminal device can be adjusted to meet different usage requirements.

[0081] In addition, the rotating member 12 is sleeved on the top end of the fixed member 13, and the rotating member 12 can rotate relative to the fixed member 13 at the top end of the fixed member 13, thereby driving the supporting member 11 to rotate, so as to adjust the orientation of the placed portable terminal device to meet different usage requirements.

[0082] Through the above structure, the height, rotation angle and pitch angle of the above supporting member 11 can be conveniently adjusted, so as to ideally meet the different usage requirements of the placed portable terminal device.

[0083] Below, refer to Figure 3 , the fixing structure between the desktop extension bracket 1 and the expansion dock 2 of the present invention is described. Figure 3 This is a right side view of the desktop extension bracket 1 of the present invention observed from the right side.

[0084] As described above, the left supporting member 11a and the right supporting member 11b are formed into roughly symmetrical shapes, and the main difference is that a slide groove S for inserting the expansion dock 2 is also provided on the right side of the right supporting member 11b, and the slide groove S is provided in the entire area of ​​the right side of the right supporting member 11b. The expansion dock 2 is inserted in the slide groove S by the insert 21 described later, thereby being fixed to the desktop expansion bracket 1.

[0085] In addition, a baffle B for blocking the portable terminal device is also provided at the bottom of the right supporting member 11b. The baffle B is provided on one side where the slide slot S is located, and is erected at one end of the slot I as described above.

[0086] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 It can be seen that when the operator slides the portable terminal device into the slot I from the left side and places it on the supporting member 11 of the desktop extension bracket 1, the baffle B can prevent the portable terminal device from sliding out from the right side, thereby reliably supporting the placed portable terminal device.

[0087] Below, refer to Figure 4-Figure 6 , the expansion dock 2 installed on the desktop expansion bracket 1 of the present invention is described.

[0088] Figure 4 2 is a schematic diagram of the overall structure of the expansion dock 2 installed on the desktop expansion bracket 1 of the utility model. Figure 4 As shown, the expansion dock 2 of the present invention is substantially in the shape of a rectangular parallelepiped, and an insert 21 is provided on one side in the long side direction. The insert 21 stands up from the surface of the expansion dock 2 and can be inserted into the above-mentioned slide slot S and fixed.

[0089] The above-mentioned insert 21 is roughly in the shape of a long strip, and the surface on one side of the insert inserted into the above-mentioned slide slot S is formed as an arc surface, which can guide the above-mentioned insertion process so as to facilitate the insert 21 to be inserted into the slide slot S.

[0090] In addition, the above-mentioned insert 21 is shown here as two long strip-shaped parts, one long and one short, but the utility model is not limited to this, and an adaptive design can also be made according to actual usage requirements.

[0091] The above-mentioned embedded plug-in 21 is usually arranged in the middle range of the side of the above-mentioned expansion dock 2. After the embedded plug-in 21 of the above-mentioned expansion dock 2 is inserted into the slide groove S, the above-mentioned expansion dock 2 can be slid up and down along the slide groove S until the upper end or the lower end of the above-mentioned embedded plug-in 21 abuts against the end of the slide groove S, thereby matching the interface position of portable devices of different sizes.

[0092] like Figure 5 As shown, a USB port 23, a Gigabit network port 24, a Typc-C connector 25, a USB connector 26, a VGA port 27, an HDMI port 28, an SD port 29, a Typc-C port 30 and a headphone port 31 are arranged on the bottom surface of the expansion dock 2 in sequence to meet the various functional expansion requirements of different devices.

[0093] In addition, if Figure 6 As shown, two speakers 22 are provided on the side of the docking station 2 close to the operator. The two speakers 22 can make up for the defect of insufficient volume of the portable device.

[0094] The desktop extension bracket 1 of the utility model has a wide range of applications and can support a variety of portable devices of different sizes. Different from existing bracket products, it can not only facilitate the placement of devices, but also adjust the direction at multiple angles, thereby greatly improving office efficiency.

[0095] In the specific use process, the following three usage methods can be adopted.

[0096] (1) Used in conjunction with Docking Station 2

[0097] First, the desktop extension bracket 1 of the present invention is fixed to the desktop or clamped to the edge of the desktop by the fixing member 13; then, the portable device to be placed is placed in the desktop extension bracket 1 from the side or above, and the position of the expansion dock 2 on the desktop extension bracket 1 is adjusted so that the interface of the expansion dock 2 is connected to the portable device, and in this process, the speaker 22 is automatically connected through Bluetooth or other connection methods; finally, the height, rotation angle and pitch angle of the desktop extension bracket 1 are adjusted to be suitable for the operator to operate.

[0098] (2) Use only the desktop extension bracket 1

[0099] This usage is basically the same as the above-mentioned method, except that the portable device does not need to be equipped with a docking station 2 .

[0100] (3) Use only Docking Station 2

[0101] The expansion dock 2 is directly mounted on the portable device and used as a common expansion dock. After the required device interface is connected to the expansion dock 2, the speaker 22 is automatically connected.

[0102] In this state, if the bracket needs to be used, the portable device equipped with the expansion dock 2 is directly placed in the desktop expansion bracket 1 from the side or top, and the corresponding height, rotation angle and pitch angle are adjusted for easy operation.

[0103] Although the structure and working principle of the utility model are described above in combination with the preferred embodiments, ordinary technicians in the technical field should realize that the above examples are only for illustration and do not constitute a limitation of the utility model. The utility model can be modified and varied within the spirit of the claims, and these modifications and variations will fall within the protection scope of the utility model.

[0104] For example, in the present invention, an example is shown in which the left supporting member 11a and the right supporting member 11b are formed by splicing two right-angled triangular panels, but the present invention is not limited to this and may also be formed by splicing other forms of triangular panels.

[0105] For example, in the present invention, an example is shown in which the left supporting member 11a and the right supporting member 11b are formed by splicing two triangular panels, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the left supporting member 11a and the right supporting member 11b can also be manufactured from a whole panel.

[0106] For example, in the present invention, an example is shown in which the middle part of the triangular panel constituting the left supporting member 11a and the right supporting member 11b is hollowed out by hollowing out the triangular area to form a hollow structure, but the present invention is not limited to this. Other shapes of parts can also be hollowed out from the middle part of the above-mentioned triangular panel, as long as the overall structural weight can be reduced while ensuring the structural strength.

[0107] For example, in the present invention, an example is shown in which a slide groove S and a baffle B are provided on the right side of the above-mentioned right supporting member 11b, but the present invention is not limited to this. The slide groove S and the baffle B may also be provided on the left side of the above-mentioned left supporting member 11a, as long as it is convenient to place the portable terminal device from the side of the desktop extension bracket.

[0108] For example, in the present invention, an example is shown in which the fixing member 13 is fixed to a desktop via a fixing base, or is clamped and fixed to the edge of an object via a clamping device, but the present invention is not limited to this, and other fixing methods or means may also be used as long as the fixing member 13 can be conveniently fixed.
