[0054] The “first direction” and “second direction” described below may refer to the directions shown in the drawings, but are not limited thereto.
[0055] refer to Figure 1 As shown, the vehicle 10000 is taken as an example, and the first part 1 of the holding assembly 100, which will be described in detail in the following embodiments, can be set in the device 1000 in the vehicle. That is, the first part 1 is a fixed part, fixed to the device 1000, for example, Figure 1 The interior component 1001 shown is shown, and the second portion 2 of the retaining assembly 100 and the retained object 200, such as a tablet computer fixed to the surface of the dashboard, together serve as a detachable disassembly unit 300. This disassembly unit 300 can be connected or disassembled by being integrally mounted to the first portion 1. That is, during installation, the electronic product, serving as the retained object 200, can be first assembled with the second portion 2 to form the disassembly unit 300, and then the disassembly unit 300 can be integrally connected to the first portion 1 via the second portion 2 to achieve integral installation. Similarly, the disassembly process can also be performed by disassembling the second portion 2 from the first portion 1, directly disassembling the disassembly unit 300 from the first portion 1 as a whole, and then disassembling the retained object 200 from the second portion 2. It will be understood that during use, the first and second portions 1 and 2 are generally located on the back of the retained object 200 and are therefore generally not visible in the figure.
[0056] It can be understood that the specific form of the device 1000 is not limited to the dashboard shown in the figure. For example, it can also be the back of the seat 1002 shown in the figure, or other interior parts, such as door panels, center consoles, etc.
[0057] The form of the held object 200 as a self-contained electronic device is not limited to the tablet computer shown in the figure, and may be, for example, a self-contained mobile phone.
[0058] Continue to refer Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the holding assembly 100 includes a first portion 1 and a second portion 2. As described above, the first portion 1 is a fixed portion, and the second portion 2 is generally a detachable movable portion.
[0059] The first part 1 is used to connect to the device 1000 for setting the retaining assembly 100. The first part 1 includes a support seat 11, a first connecting part 12, a first rotating part 131, and a second rotating part 132. The support seat 11 can move relative to the device 1000 so that the first part 1 extends out of the surface 1003 of the device. The first connecting part 12, the first rotating part 131, and the second rotating part 132 can move with the support seat 11.
[0060] The second portion 2 is used to place and fix a held object 200 . The second portion 2 includes a second connecting portion 21 , a holding portion 22 and a third rotating portion 23 . The holding portion 22 is used to place the held object 200 .
[0061] The second portion 2 and the first portion 1 are detachably connected by adsorption via the connection between the first connecting portion 12 and the second connecting portion 21 .
[0062] like Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the first rotating part 131 provides a first rotating shaft 31 extending along the first direction, and the second part 2 can rotate around the first rotating shaft 31; the second rotating part 132 provides a second rotating shaft 32 extending along the second direction, and the second part 2 can rotate around the second rotating shaft 32; the third rotating part 23 provides a third rotating shaft 33 extending along the third direction, and the first direction, the second direction, and the third direction are perpendicular to each other; the retaining part 22 is connected to the third rotating part 23, and the retaining part 22 can rotate around the third rotating shaft 33.
[0063] The specific forms of the first rotating part 131, the second rotating part 132, and the third rotating part 23 can all be a seat body, and the first rotating shaft 31, the second rotating shaft 32, and the third rotating shaft 33 are separate pivot members inserted into the seat body, but this is not limited to this, and the rotating shaft and the rotating part can also be integrally formed.
[0064] The first rotating part 131, the second rotating part 132, and the third rotating part 23 can be as follows Figure 2 As shown, they are stacked in the third direction, that is, in the third direction, the third rotating part 23, the first rotating part 131, and the second rotating part 132 are arranged in sequence from the direction close to the held object 200, so that the holding assembly is further compact in structure and highly integrated.
[0065] The beneficial effect of this is that, through the adsorption connection between the first part 1 and the second part 2 through the first connecting part 12 and the second connecting part 21, and the arrangement of the first rotating part 131, the second rotating part 132, and the third rotating part 23, the holding component can provide fine-tuning of the perspective of the held object in the space relative to the user on the basis of providing a reliable holding effect, and realize the rotation of the held object in its own plane, so that the holding component can be adapted to the body parameters of different users and different postures of the same user, thereby improving the user experience and realizing the fine-tuning structure with high integration, compact structure and easy arrangement in scenes with limited space such as vehicles.
[0066] In some embodiments, the adsorption structure may be configured such that the first connecting portion 12 and the second connecting portion 21 are magnetic components, such that the first connecting portion 12 and the second connecting portion 21 provide a detachable fixed connection of the adsorption structure through magnetic attraction. Specifically, the magnetic components may be configured such that the first connecting portion 12 is an electromagnet or a permanent magnet, and the second connecting portion 21 is an electromagnet or a permanent magnet, with the two achieving magnetic attraction based on the principle that opposite magnetic fields attract. This type of adsorption structure is simple and easily adjustable in terms of adsorption force.
[0067] In some embodiments, reference Figure 2 As shown, the structure for providing the rotational stroke can be that the first rotating portion 131 and the support base 11 have a gap 4 in the third direction, and the gap 4 limits the rotation angle of the second portion 2 around the first rotation axis 31 and the second portion 2 around the second rotation axis 32. The beneficial effect of this is that the rotational stroke is provided by utilizing the gap between the support base and the first rotating portion required by the retaining assembly itself, and the rotational stroke is limited by the support base without the need for an additional limiting structure. This not only achieves reliable limitation of the fine-tuning stroke, preventing over-adjustment from causing collisions between electronic products and devices, but also makes the retaining assembly structure compact and reliable, further adapting to deployment in scenarios with limited space, such as vehicles.
[0068] Continue to refer Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, gap 4 limits the rotation angle of the second portion 2 about the first rotation axis 31 and the second portion 2 about the second rotation axis 32 to a range of 5°-10°. For example, the value of gap 4 can be directly limited to correspond to the limited rotation angle range, facilitating structural design and development. Furthermore, after in-depth research, the inventors found that a rotation angle range of 5°-10° is an ideal viewing angle adjustment range for users, further enhancing the user experience.
[0069] Continue to refer Figure 2As shown, in some embodiments, the structure of the holding portion 22 can be that the holding portion 22 includes a holding portion body 221 and a clamping portion 222. The clamping portion 222 provides an edge of the holding portion 22 in the first direction and / or the second direction to clamp the held object 200. This can further stably fix the held object 200 to prevent it from shaking or even falling off during the process of being held in the vehicle. The specific structure of the edge provided by the clamping portion 222 can be, for example, Figure 2 As shown, a flexible protrusion extending along the third direction is provided to clamp the edge of the electronic device at the edge in the first direction and / or the second direction.
[0070] In some embodiments, the clamping portion 222 and the retaining portion body 221 can move relative to each other in the first direction and / or the second direction, so that the clamping portion 222 can adapt to provide clamping and fixing functions for self-contained electronic devices of different sizes. For example, it can use common clamping requirements of different sizes ranging from mobile phones (about 6 inches) to tablet computers (about 11 inches), thereby improving the universal adaptability of the retaining component.
[0071] In summary, the beneficial effects of the retaining assembly and the device including the same according to the above embodiment include but are not limited to:
[0072] By virtue of the first part and the second part being adsorbed and connected through the first connecting part and the second connecting part, and the provision of the first rotating part, the second rotating part and the third rotating part, the holding component can provide a reliable holding effect, and can provide fine-tuning of the viewing angle of the held object in space relative to the user, and realize the rotation of the held object within its own plane, so that the holding component can be adapted to the body parameters of different users and different postures of the same user, thereby improving the user experience; moreover, the electronic product can be disassembled from the first part as a whole together with the second part, which is convenient for the user's operation and also improves the user experience of the devices in the vehicle that can be provided with the holding component (such as seats, interior panels).

Any person skilled in the art may make possible changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the present application. Therefore, any modifications, equivalent variations, and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present application without departing from the content of the technical solution of the present application shall fall within the scope of protection defined by the claims of the present application.
