[0002] A mobile terminal, also known as a mobile communication terminal, refers to a computer device that can be used while moving. Broadly speaking, it includes mobile phones, laptops, tablet computers, POS machines, and even in-vehicle computers. With the popularization of vehicles nowadays, people often use mobile terminals such as mobile phones during the process of driving a vehicle. When driving, the mobile phone needs to be installed in the cab through a mobile phone holder, etc. Nowadays, people sometimes need to use a mobile phone during the driving process, such as using map route navigation. In this case, the driver often needs to distract his attention to operate the mobile phone, which poses a great potential safety hazard. Therefore, a vehicle-mounted mobile terminal control device is proposed. Content of the Utility Model
[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a vehicle-mounted mobile terminal control device to solve the problems of distracting attention to operate the mobile phone during driving and potential safety hazards proposed in the above background technique.

It includes a control device housing composed of a first arc-shaped base shell and a second arc-shaped base shell, as well as function buttons and a charging socket arranged on the control device housing. The bottom surface of the control device housing forms a C-shaped card slot through the first arc-shaped base shell and the second arc-shaped base shell. This C-shaped card slot is used to assist the control device housing to be clamped on the steering wheel. A first placement part for placing the function buttons and the charging socket is installed on the first arc-shaped base shell, and a second placement part is installed on the second arc-shaped base shell;
[0006] The first arc-shaped base shell is connected to the second arc-shaped base shell through a bendable connection mechanism. This bendable connection mechanism is used to make the joint between the first arc-shaped base shell and the second arc-shaped base shell have a bending angle of 0 - 50 degrees, and the bending at the joint of the first arc-shaped base shell and the second arc-shaped base shell can change the cavity size of the C-shaped card slot to adapt to the clamping of the control device housing on different steering wheels.
[0007] Furthermore, the bendable connection mechanism includes a first connection part and a second connection part arranged side by side on the right side wall of the first placement part, and a slot component installed on the left side wall of the second placement part. This slot component includes an installation slot for inserting the second connection part and a through hole for inserting the first connection part, and the first connection part and the second connection part are of a bendable cylinder structure.
[0008] Furthermore, the bendable columnar structure is made of a tension spring or a bendable elastic material, and the bendable elastic material is made of polypropylene plastic with a hundred folds (PP).
[0009] Furthermore, the first connecting portion and the second connecting portion are bent together to drive the second arc-shaped base shell to bend along the right side wall of the first arc-shaped base shell, or drive the first arc-shaped base shell to bend along the left side wall of the second arc-shaped base shell, so as to change the size of the cavity of the C-shaped card slot.
[0010] Furthermore, it further includes a protection pad arranged on the bottom surface of the control device housing, and the protection pad is attached to the surface of the steering wheel body.
[0011] The beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows:
[0012] 1. Through the C-shaped card slot formed by the bottom surfaces of the first arc-shaped base shell and the second arc-shaped base shell of the present utility model, it can be directly clamped on the steering wheel. The driver only needs to press the button with a finger to quickly and wirelessly control the mobile phone, so as to avoid excessive attention to the mobile phone when operating the mobile phone on the in-vehicle mobile phone holder while driving, which affects driving attention, improves driving safety, and utilizes the plastic bending performance of the first connecting portion and the second connecting portion to expand or contract the size of the C-shaped card slot, so that the control device housing can adapt to the sizes of different steering wheels and the clamping of different steering wheel sizes, effectively avoiding the situation that the C-shaped card slot of the control device housing is too small to clamp tightly and too tight to wear the steering wheel.
[0013] 2. The protection pad adopted by the present utility model can not only reduce the contact wear generated between the control device housing and the steering wheel, but also make the control device housing fit more firmly on the steering wheel, so that the control device housing is clamped on the steering wheel more tightly.
