[0032] The present utility model will be further described in detail below through specific embodiments in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0033] According to an embodiment of the present utility model, as Figures 1 to 3 , an annular bracket includes:
[0034] A base 1;
[0035] A pressing ring 2, the pressing ring 2 is arranged on the base 1, and a plurality of elastic pieces 8 are fixed on the lower surface of the pressing ring 2;
[0036] A rotating ring 3, the rotating ring 3 is limited between the pressing ring 2 and the base 1, a corrugated surface cooperating with the elastic pieces 8 is formed on the inner ring of the rotating ring 3, and the rotating ring can rotate relative to the base 1 and the pressing ring 2,
[0037] A support ring 4, the support ring 4 is hinged to the rotating ring 3.
[0038] The annular bracket base 1 of the present utility model can be fixedly installed by adhering the base 1 to the back of the electronic device protective case or the back panel of the electronic device using the adhesive tape 15. To improve the feedback feel during the rotation of the annular bracket, the annular bracket of the present utility model is provided with an elastic piece 8 on the pressure ring 2 and a corrugated surface cooperating with the elastic piece 8 on the rotating ring 3. During the rotation, the elastic piece 8 remains stationary, and the rotating ring 3 drives the corrugated surface to rotate relative to the elastic piece 8. When the elastic piece 8 contacts the peak of the corrugated surface, the elastic piece 8 is compressed. When the rotating ring 3 rotates a certain angle, the elastic piece 8 is released to contact the valley of the corrugated surface, and the elastic piece 8 releases the elastic force. During the continuous rotation process, the elastic piece 8 alternately contacts the peak and valley of the corrugated surface, forming a strong feel feedback and improving the playability or interestingness of the annular bracket. Further, during the rotation of the rotating ring 3, since the elastic piece 8 alternately contacts the peak and valley of the corrugated surface, the elastic force is alternately accumulated and released. When the elastic force is released, the elastic piece 8 can strike the corrugated surface to emit a crisp sound, further improving the interestingness of the present annular bracket.
[0039] In addition, due to the cooperation structure of the elastic piece 8 and the corrugated surface provided in the annular bracket of the present utility model, in addition to providing feel feedback, this structure can also fix the rotating ring 3 at the position where the elastic piece 8 contacts the valley. When the elastic piece 8 contacts the valley, without an external force to rotate the rotating ring 3, the elastic piece 8 abuts against the valley of the corrugated surface, locking the angle of the rotating ring 3; since the support ring 4 is hinged to the rotating ring 3, it is equivalent to locking the rotation of the support ring 4. In this state, when the support ring 4 is opened around the hinge position, and the support ring 4 contacts a plane, it can form a stable support for the electronic device to be supported. In the present utility model, the hinge or hinge used for the hinge between the support ring 4 and the rotating ring 3 itself has a certain damping, enabling it to form a support at any position.
[0040] Further, as Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, in this embodiment, the base 1 is provided with a plurality of through holes 6. In this embodiment, the through holes 6 are counterbore designs. The lower surface of the pressing ring 2 is provided with a downwardly protruding threaded hole 7, and the pressing ring 2 and the base 1 are connected by bolts. An inner thin edge 5 is formed on the inner ring of the rotating ring 3, the corrugated surface is formed on the thin edge 5, and the lower surface of the pressing ring 2 is located on the upper surface of the thin edge 5. To ensure that the rotating ring 3 can rotate freely relative to the pressing ring 2 and the base 1, in this embodiment, an inner thin edge 5 is formed on the inner ring of the rotating ring 3. After the base 1 and the pressing ring 2 are connected by bolts, since the lower surface of the pressing ring 2 is provided with a downwardly protruding threaded hole 7, there is a gap therebetween, and this thin edge 5 is located in this gap. The thin edge 5 and this gap form a clearance fit or a transition fit, thereby ensuring the rotation of the rotating ring 3. Further, the corrugated surface is formed on this thin edge 5 and faces the center of the rotating ring 3. The elastic sheet 8 is arranged on the lower surface of the pressing ring 2 and faces the corrugated surface. The shape of the elastic sheet 8 can be an arched plate strip as shown in the figure, or other shapes, or a non-sheet structure formed by a component adapted to the corrugated surface connected by a spring, such as connecting a spherical object by a spring. The present utility model does not make specific limitations.
[0041] According to an embodiment of the present utility model, as Figure 3 shown, a receiving groove 9 is provided on the lower surface of the pressing ring 2, and the elastic sheet 8 is arranged in the receiving groove 9. The elastic sheet 8 includes two straight edges and an arched edge with a middle arch. The elastic sheet 8 is arranged in the receiving groove 9, and a gap for the arched edge of the elastic sheet 8 to elastically deform is reserved between the receiving groove 9 and the elastic sheet 8 to ensure that the rotating ring 3 will not be stuck during the rotation process.
[0042] Further, in this example, a first magnet 10 is further provided on the upper surface of the pressing ring 2, and a second magnet 11 corresponding to the shape and position of the first magnet 10 is provided on the lower surface of the support ring 4. Both the first magnet 10 and the second magnet 11 are arc-shaped magnets adapted to the shape of the pressing ring 2. In this embodiment, the outer diameter of the support ring 4 is approximately equal to the inner diameter of the rotating ring 3. When the opening and closing angle of the support ring 4 is 0°, it just lies within the rotating ring 3. By respectively providing the first magnet 10 on the upper surface of the pressing ring 2 and the second magnet 11 on the lower surface of the support ring 4, after the support ring 4 is buckled, the support ring 4 can be fixed in the receiving cavity formed by the rotating ring 3 by magnetic attraction force. On the one hand, space is saved, and on the other hand, the structural integrity of this annular bracket in the non-use state is improved.
[0043] To achieve when the opening and closing angle of the support ring 4 is 0°, as Figure 1As shown, the support ring 4 is just located inside the rotating ring 3 and is flush with the rotating ring 3 in height. In this embodiment, an articulated notch is provided on the rotating ring 3, and an articulated shaft is inserted through the articulated notch. An articulated hinge 12 is sleeved on the articulated shaft, and the support ring 4 is fixed to the articulated hinge 12. By providing the articulated notch, the articulated position is located inside the rotating ring 3, so that after the support ring 4 is closed, the support ring 4 is located inside the rotating ring 3.
[0044] According to an embodiment of the present invention, as Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, for the convenience of opening and closing the support ring 4, in this embodiment, an opening and closing notch 13 is provided on the rotating ring 3 and / or an opening and closing notch 13 is provided on the support ring 4. In this embodiment, a ring-shaped cover 14 is further included, and the ring-shaped cover 14 is arranged on the upper surface of the pressing ring 2. The ring-shaped cover 14 can cover the first magnet 10 on the upper surface of the pressing ring 2 to prevent the first magnet 10 and the second magnet 11 from directly colliding and contacting and being damaged; in this embodiment, the ring-shaped cover 14 can be a rigid cover or a flexible cover. When it is a rigid cover, it can be made of a metal material or a plastic material, and when it is a flexible cover, it can be made of a rubber material or a canvas material, etc.
