For example, it may be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or integrated; it may be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it may be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, and it may be the communication inside two components or the interaction relationship between two components. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the embodiments of the present application can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0043] According to an embodiment of the first aspect of the present application, as shown in Figures 1 - 7 the bracket assembly provided by the present application mainly includes: a bracket 1 and a locking member 2. Wherein, X and Y represent the length direction and height direction of the bracket 1. The bracket 1 has a rotating end 11 and a locking end 12 opposite to each other along the length direction X. A first elastic member 13 is provided at the rotating end 11; the locking member 2 is arranged at the locking end 12 of the bracket 1 and is used to lock or release the locking end 12.

[0044] The embodiments of the present application provide an automatic pop-up bracket structure, aiming to improve the convenience and experience of users when using electronic devices such as mobile power supplies, mobile phones, and tablets. Specifically:

[0045] The key to the design of the bracket 1 is that it has a rotating end 11 and a locking end 12 arranged along the length direction X. Such a design allows the bracket 1 to rotate around a certain axis. A first elastic member 13 is provided at the rotating end 11 of the bracket 1. The first elastic member 13 can be a torsion spring. One end of the torsion spring abuts against the bracket 1, and the other end abuts against the housing 3 of the electronic device, mainly functioning to spring open the bracket 1. This is the core component for realizing the automatic pop-up function, ensuring that the bracket 1 can automatically unfold without external force constraint, thereby realizing the support of the electronic device.

[0046] The locking member 2 is located at the locking end 12 of the bracket 1, and its function is to control the locking and release of the bracket 1. The user can operate the locking member 2 to determine whether the bracket 1 remains folded or is unfolded for use.

[0047] Deployment process: When the user needs to use the bracket 1, first, unlock the locking end 12 of the bracket 1 by a simple operation through the locking fastener 2. Once the locking end 12 is released, the pre-loaded first elastic member 13 comes into play, generating an outward elastic force, which prompts the bracket 1 to rotate through the rotating end 11 and automatically expand quickly, thus eliminating the need for the user to manually expand it and greatly enhancing the convenience of use.

[0048] Folding process: When not in use, the user only needs to gently push the bracket 1 back and at the same time use the locking fastener 2 to re-lock the locking end 12 of the bracket 1. This operation overcomes the elastic force of the first elastic member 13, enabling the bracket 1 to be firmly held in the folded state and avoiding the possibility of the bracket 1 accidentally expanding.

[0049] Therefore, the bracket assembly provided by the embodiment of the present application adopts an automatic pop-up design, reducing the steps of manually expanding the bracket 1, greatly simplifying the user's operation process, improving the use experience, and having a simple overall structural design, low manufacturing cost, and being easy to mass-produce.

[0050] According to an embodiment of the present application, referring to Figures 1 - 3 As shown, the locking fastener 2 includes: a lock 21 and a second elastic member 22. The lock 21 includes a rotating portion 211, a pressing portion 212, and a locking portion 213. The pressing portion 212 and the locking portion 213 are connected to both sides of the rotating portion 211. The locking portion 213 is used to lock or release the locking end 12 of the bracket 1; the second elastic member 22 is provided on the rotating portion 211.

[0051] In this embodiment of the present application, the design of the locking fastener 2 is further refined, adding a more precise operation mechanism and a reset function to enhance the convenience and reliability of use. Specifically:

[0052] The structure of the lock 21 consists of three key parts: a rotating portion 211, a pressing portion 212, and a locking portion 213. Such a design enables the lock 21 to have a high degree of functional integration. The rotating portion 211 serves as a connection base point, enabling the pressing portion 212 and the locking portion 213 to work together. The pressing portion 212 faces the user for easy operation; the locking portion 213 directly acts on the locking end 12 of the bracket 1 and is responsible for the actual locking and releasing functions.

[0053] When the user wants to expand the bracket 1, by pressing the pressing portion 212 of the lock 21, in essence, an external force is applied to the rotating portion 211, causing the entire lock 21 to rotate around the rotating portion 211. This action will cause the locking portion 213 to disengage from the locking end 12 of the bracket 1, unlocking the state. At this time, the first elastic member 13 comes into play, pushing the bracket 1 to automatically pop out to the use state.

[0054] The second elastic member 22 can be a torsion spring, which is arranged at the rotating part 211 of the latch 21, and both ends of the torsion spring abut against the housing 3 of the electronic device. Its main function is to provide a restoring force for the latch 21 after the user completes the pressing operation and releases the hand, so as to prompt the latch 21 to automatically reset. This design simplifies the user's operation process.

[0055] Therefore, in the embodiment of the present application, through the pressing part 212, the user can easily unlock and lock the bracket 1 without a complex operation process. Moreover, the addition of the second elastic member 22 ensures the automatic reset of the latch 21 after the operation, which not only improves the smoothness of use but also enhances the stability of the entire bracket assembly and reduces the possibility of misoperation.

[0056] According to an embodiment of the present application, referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the latch member 2 further includes: a first rotating shaft 23, the first rotating shaft 23 is rotatably connected to the rotating part 211 of the latch 21 along the height direction Y of the bracket 1, and the second elastic member 22 is sleeved on the first rotating shaft 23.

[0057] In this embodiment of the present application, both ends of the first rotating shaft 23 can be connected to the housing 3 of the electronic device, which not only plays a role in fixing the latch member 2 but also realizes the precise positioning of the bracket assembly on the device. Such an assembly method simplifies the production and assembly process and reduces the assembly difficulty.

[0058] The first rotating shaft 23 is arranged along the height direction Y of the bracket 1, and the rotating part 211 of the latch 21 can rotate around the first rotating shaft 23. Such a design enhances the overall rigidity and stability of the latch member 2. As the support core, the first rotating shaft 23 can withstand the lateral force generated by the pressing operation, ensuring smooth rotation and preventing looseness or damage due to frequent operation.

[0059] Integrating the second elastic member 22 through the first rotating shaft 23 makes the design more compact and reduces the space occupation. This method is beneficial to the miniaturization design, enabling electronic devices such as mobile power supplies to maintain the simplicity and portability of the overall appearance while integrating the function of the bracket assembly.

[0060] It can be understood that the second elastic member 22 is sleeved on the first rotating shaft 23, and its function is not limited to providing a reset force for the latch 21, but also participates in maintaining the dynamic balance of the entire latch member 2. During the pressing operation, the second elastic member 22 is subjected to pressure and then releases energy to help the latch 21 reset, ensuring the coherence and stability of the operation.

[0061] According to an embodiment of the present application, referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, a first limiting cavity 2111 is formed in the rotating part 211 of the buckle 21. The first rotating shaft 23 passes through the first limiting cavity 2111, and the second elastic member 22 is arranged in the first limiting cavity 2111.

[0062] Specifically, the rotating part 211 includes two connecting bodies arranged at intervals in the height direction. A first limiting cavity 2111 is formed between the two connecting bodies. The first rotating shaft 23 is rotatably connected to the two connecting bodies and passes through the first limiting cavity 2111. The second elastic member 22 is sleeved on the first rotating shaft 23 and is located in the first limiting cavity 2111.

[0063] In this embodiment of the present application, the first limiting cavity 2111 serves as the installation space for the second elastic member 22, achieving accurate limitation of the second elastic member 22, making the performance of the second elastic member 22 more precise and controllable during compression and recovery, ensuring the smooth operation and reaction speed of the buckle 21, and improving the user experience.

[0064] Moreover, the design of the first limiting cavity 2111 effectively utilizes the internal space of the buckle 21, hiding the second elastic member 22 in the cavity, not only maintaining the simple and beautiful external design, but also greatly saving the occupied space of the bracket assembly, making electronic devices such as mobile power supplies more thin and portable.

[0065] According to an embodiment of the present application, with reference to Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a clamping groove 121 is provided at the locking end 12 of the bracket 1, and a buckle 2131 engaged with the clamping groove 121 is provided at the locking part 213 of the buckle 21.

[0066] In this embodiment, by providing the clamping groove 121 at the locking end 12 of the bracket 1 and designing the buckle 2131 matching therewith at the locking part 213 of the buckle 21, the stability and reliability of the locking and releasing mechanism of the bracket 1 are further enhanced.

[0067] The present application realizes the firm locking of the bracket 1 through the mutual nesting of the physical structures of the clamping groove 121 and the buckle 2131. When the bracket 1 needs to be fixed, the buckle 2131 is tightly embedded in the clamping groove 121 to form a stable mechanical connection, preventing the bracket 1 from accidentally unfolding in the non-use state.

[0068] Moreover, the mutual cooperation of the clamping groove 121 and the buckle 2131 not only realizes locking, but also provides precise positioning when the bracket 1 is folded, ensuring that the bracket 1 can return to the same position every time it is folded.

[0069] During use, the user only needs to simply press the pressing part 212 of the lock catch 21, and the buckle 2131 can smoothly disengage from the card slot 121, and then the bracket 1 automatically unfolds under the action of the first elastic member 13. This operation design simplifies the user's interaction steps and improves the convenience of use.

[0070] According to an embodiment of the present application, with reference to Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, the lock catch member 2 further includes: a button 24, and the button 24 is connected to the pressing part 212 of the lock catch 21.

[0071] In this embodiment of the present application, the addition of the button 24 provides a direct and obvious operation interface for the user. Compared with directly pressing the pressing part 212 of the lock catch 21, the independent button 24 design is more intuitive, and the user can immediately recognize how to operate, improving the convenience of use.

[0072] The user only needs to press the button 24 to complete the unlocking action of the bracket 1 and realize the automatic unfolding of the bracket 1. This one-button design greatly simplifies the operation process, enabling even first-time users to quickly get started and improving the usability of the product.

[0073] According to an embodiment of the present application, with reference to Figure 3 shown, the pressing part 212 of the lock catch 21 is provided with a first connection structure, and the button 24 is provided with a second connection structure. One of the first connection structure and the second connection structure is a connection post 241, and the other is a connection hole 2121, and the connection hole 2121 is connected to the connection post 241.

[0074] For example, the pressing part 212 of the lock catch 21 is provided with a connection hole 2121, and the button 24 is provided with a connection post 241 connected to the connection hole 2121.

[0075] In this embodiment of the present application, the design of the connection post 241 and the connection hole 2121 ensures the precise docking between the button 24 and the pressing part 212 of the lock catch 21, forming a stable mechanical connection structure, which can realize the mechanical linkage between the button 24 and the pressing part 212 of the lock catch 21, providing a more immediate and reliable transmission effect, and reducing the possibility of operation delay and error.

[0076] Moreover, through the structural design of the connection post 241 and the connection hole 2121, the production and assembly process is simplified. During assembly, only by inserting the connection post 241 into the corresponding connection hole 2121 can the connection between the button 24 and the pressing part 212 be completed, improving the production efficiency and also facilitating subsequent maintenance and replacement.

[0077] According to an embodiment of the present application, with reference to Figure 1 and Figure 4As shown, a second rotating shaft 14 is rotatably connected to the rotating end 11 of the bracket 1 along the height direction Y, and the first elastic member 13 is sleeved on the second rotating shaft 14.

[0078] In this embodiment of the present application, both ends of the second rotating shaft 14 can be connected to the housing 3 of the electronic device, achieving precise positioning of the bracket assembly on the device. Such an assembly method simplifies the production and assembly process and reduces the assembly difficulty. Moreover, as the support shaft of the rotating end 11 of the bracket 1, the second rotating shaft 14 improves the stability and smoothness when the bracket 1 rotates.

[0079] According to an embodiment of the present application, referring to Figure 4 As shown, connecting portions 111 are provided at intervals on both sides of the rotating end 11 of the bracket 1 along the height direction Y. A second limiting cavity 112 is formed between the two connecting portions 111. The second rotating shaft 14 is rotatably connected to the two connecting portions 111 and passes through the second limiting cavity 112, and the first elastic member 13 is arranged in the second limiting cavity 112.

[0080] In this embodiment of the present application, the design of the second limiting cavity 112 cleverly utilizes the spare space of the rotating end 11 of the bracket 1 to integrate the second rotating shaft 14 and the first elastic member 13 in this limited area, significantly reducing the space requirement of the bracket assembly for the external space. This compact design is beneficial to the lightweight and portability of small electronic devices such as mobile power supplies.

[0081] By directly connecting the second rotating shaft 14 to the connecting portion 111, precise limitation of the position of the second rotating shaft 14 is achieved, reducing the possibility of loosening or misalignment and improving the overall structural stability.

[0082] Moreover, the second limiting cavity 112 provides a fixed installation position for the first elastic member 13, ensuring the stability of the first elastic member 13 during operation and contributing to the smooth movement of the bracket 1 when it is unfolded and folded.

[0083] According to an embodiment of the second aspect of the present application, referring to Figures 5 - 7 As shown, the present application further provides an electronic device, mainly including: a housing 3 and the bracket assembly according to any of the above embodiments. The bracket assembly is arranged on the housing 3 and is used to support the housing 3. Among them, Figure 5 and Figure 6 show the unfolded state of the bracket 1 on the electronic device, Figure 7 show the folded state of the bracket 1 on the electronic device.

[0084] The specific type of the electronic device of the present application is not particularly limited. For example, it can be a mobile phone, a tablet, a mobile power supply, etc. The mobile power supply can be a magnetic wireless charging mobile power supply.

[0085] Specifically, a storage groove 31 is provided on the lower side of the back surface of the housing 3 of the electronic device for storing the bracket 1 of the bracket assembly. The locking member 2 of the bracket assembly is provided on the side surface of the housing 3. The locking structure 21 of the locking member 2 is arranged inside the housing 3, and the buckle 2131 of the locking portion 213 of the lock 21 is located in the storage groove 31. The buckle 2131 and the second rotating shaft 14 on the bracket 1 are respectively located on opposite sides of the storage groove 31.

[0086] In this embodiment of the present application, the storage groove 31 is designed on the back surface of the housing 3, so that the bracket 1 can be completely stored inside the electronic device when not in use, keeping the appearance of the device flat and simple. At the same time, it is beneficial to reduce the overall volume of the device and facilitate carrying.

[0087] Moreover, the locking member 2 is arranged on the side surface of the housing 3, which is convenient for the user to operate with one hand. When unfolding the bracket 1, the user can easily reach the button 24 of the locking member 2 for quick and direct operation, improving the usability.

[0088] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present application and are not intended to limit the embodiments of the present application. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, and improvements made within the spirit and principle of the embodiments of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the embodiments of the present application.
