[0015] In one embodiment, the vehicle charging bracket further includes a light-emitting component, which is electrically connected to the first circuit board and emits light that passes through the housing assembly. The light-emitting component can enhance the product's appearance and can also be used to display charging status, etc.
[0016] In one embodiment, the light-emitting component includes an LED lamp electrically connected to the first circuit board and a light guide. A light guide hole is provided on the rear housing, and the light guide is disposed in the light guide hole. The light emitted by the LED lamp is transmitted to the outside of the housing component through the light guide. The light guide makes the light softer.
[0017] In one embodiment, the vehicle charging bracket further includes a clamping component movably connected to the housing assembly, the clamping component being used to clamp the electronic device. The clamping component's ability to hold the electronic device makes the vehicle charging bracket more stable during use.
[0018] In one embodiment, the vehicle-mounted charging bracket further includes a driving component disposed in the receiving cavity and electrically connected to the first circuit board.

[0034] The housing assembly 10 includes a front shell 11, a rear shell 12, and a bottom support 13. The front shell 11 and the rear shell 12 enclose a receiving cavity 10a. The bottom support 13 connects to the side of the front shell 11 away from the rear shell 12. The rear shell 12 has a second mounting hole 121. A connector 20 passes through the second mounting hole 121 and is used to connect an external object to house the vehicle charging bracket 100. The connector 20 is rotatably connected to the housing assembly 10. The charging assembly 30 is disposed in the receiving cavity 10a and includes a first circuit board 31 and a wireless charging module 32 for wirelessly charging electronic devices. Group 32 is electrically connected to the first circuit board 31; the clamping assembly 40 includes two clamping members 41 disposed opposite to each other for clamping the electronic device, the two clamping members 41 being disposed on opposite sides of the housing assembly 10; the driving assembly 50 is disposed in the receiving cavity 10a and electrically connected to the first circuit board 31, for driving the clamping members 41 to clamp the electronic device and driving the housing assembly 10 to rotate relative to the connector 20; the port assembly 80 includes a charging port 81 for electrically connecting to an external power source, the charging port 81 being electrically connected to the first circuit board 31, and the port assembly 80 being rotatably connected to the housing assembly 10.
[0035] Compared to existing technologies, the vehicle charging bracket 100 provided in this application has the following features: a charging component 30 is provided on the housing assembly 10 to charge electronic devices with wireless charging capabilities; a clamping component 40 is provided to clamp and fix the electronic device together with the base support 13, preventing unstable charging caused by shaking or movement of the electronic device; a driving component 50 is provided to electrically drive the clamping component 40 to clamp the electronic device and rotate the housing assembly 10 to rotate the electronic device to achieve horizontal or vertical screen orientation; the port component 80 can rotate relative to the housing assembly 10, so that when the electronic device is rotated to achieve horizontal or vertical screen orientation when powered by an external power source, the port component 80 can maintain a fixed position with the power cord connected to the external power source, thereby avoiding tangling.
[0036] Specifically, the port assembly 80 further includes a housing 82 and a second circuit board 83 disposed on the housing 82. The second circuit board 83 is electrically connected to the charging port 81 and the first circuit board 31. The charging port 81 is disposed on the housing 82. The rear shell 12 is provided with a first mounting hole 122, and the housing 82 is disposed in the first mounting hole 122. The housing 82 is rotatably connected to the housing assembly 10. The electrical connection between the second circuit board 83 and the charging port 81 ensures the stability of the electrical connection during power extraction and also ensures the safety of power extraction.
[0037] The port assembly 80 further includes a connecting plate 84, which is connected to the rear shell 12. The outer shell 82 and the connecting plate 84 are respectively provided with a first rotating part 821 and a second rotating part 841. The first rotating part 821 is rotatable relative to the second rotating part 841. Specifically, one of the first rotating part 821 and the second rotating part 841 is a sliding groove, and the other is a slider. The first rotating part 821 consists of two opposing sliders, and the second rotating part 841 consists of two opposing sliding grooves. The sliding groove is an arc-shaped hole penetrating the connecting plate 84, and the two sliders are respectively disposed in the two sliding grooves, thereby ensuring the stability of the sliders rotating within the sliding grooves. The connecting plate 84 is rotatably connected to the outer shell 82, thereby enabling relative rotation between the charging port 81 and the shell assembly 10.
[0038] Continue reading Figure 3 and Figure 4In this embodiment, the driving assembly 50 includes a first motor 51 and a gear 52 mounted on the shaft of the first motor 51. The first motor 51 is electrically connected to the first circuit board 31. Each of the two clamping members 41 is provided with a rack 411, which is disposed opposite to the gear 52 and meshes with it. When the first motor 51 drives the gear 52 to rotate, the two clamping members 41 move away from or closer to each other to clamp the electronic device. By using the first motor 51 and the gear 52 to drive the clamping assembly 40 to clamp the electronic device, electric drive is achieved, avoiding manual drive and making it more convenient to use.
[0039] To ensure the stability of the clamping assembly 40 during the telescopic clamping of the mobile phone, the clamping assembly 40 further includes a limiting member 42 disposed in the receiving cavity 10a and connected to the rear shell 12. The two clamping members 41 and the gear 52 are all disposed on the side of the limiting member 42 away from the rear shell 12. The limiting member 42 has a through circular hole 421 through which the rotating shaft of the first motor 51 passes and connects to the gear 52. The limiting member 42 has a limiting portion 422 on the side away from the rear shell 12, and the rack 411 is disposed on the limiting portion 422 and can slide along the limiting portion 422. By providing the limiting member 42, the sliding or moving position of the rack 411 can be restricted, thereby ensuring the stability of the clamping assembly 40 in clamping the electronic device.
[0040] To facilitate the rotation of the electronic device, in this embodiment, the driving assembly 50 further includes a second motor 53 and a fixing member 54. The fixing member 54 has a through hole 541, and the fixing member 54 connects the rear shell 12 and the second motor 53. The rotating shaft of the second motor 53 passes through the through hole 541 and is connected to the connecting member 20. When the second motor 53 is started, the second motor 53 drives the fixing member 54 and the rear shell 12 to rotate relative to the connecting member 20. By setting the second motor 53 to drive the shell assembly 10 to rotate relative to the connecting member 20, the electronic device can be rotated, thereby enabling the electronic device to be used in landscape or portrait mode.
[0041] To facilitate charging of electronic devices without wireless charging capabilities or with magnetic charging heads, the vehicle charging bracket 100 further includes a magnetic charging connection component 60. This component 60 is electrically connected to the first circuit board 31 and is used for detachably connecting a magnetic charging head. The magnetic charging connection component 60 is slidably connected to the base support 13. By providing the magnetic charging connection component 60, when the electronic device lacks wireless charging capabilities, the magnetic charging head can be quickly positioned for charging. The slidable connection between the magnetic charging connection component 60 and the base support 13 allows the component to be slid open when a magnetic charging head is not present, facilitating the use of a standard charging cable to charge the electronic device.
[0042] Specifically, the magnetic charging connection assembly 60 includes a slider 61 and a magnetic charging connector 62 disposed within the slider 61 and electrically connected to the first circuit board 31. The magnetic charging connector 62 is used for detachably connecting a magnetic charging head. The base support 13 is provided with a groove 131, and the slider 61 can slide along the groove 131. The cooperation between the slider 61 and the magnetic charging connector 62 enables a sliding function, thereby facilitating switching between two charging methods: a regular charging cable and a magnetic charging head. Specifically, the sliding member 61 can slide left and right along the sliding groove 131. The sliding member 61 drives the magnetic charging connector 62 to slide left and right in the sliding groove 131. When charging using the magnetic charging connector 62, the sliding member 61 is slid to a suitable position and engages with the magnetic charging head, realizing the charging of the electronic device supported by the base 13 and the clamping assembly 40. The magnetic charging head can be a TYPE-C magnetic charging head, a Micro USB magnetic charging head, or a Lightning magnetic charging head. It can be adapted to different electronic devices, expanding the application range of the car charging bracket and improving the user experience. In this embodiment, when the magnetic charging head is not carried, the sliding member 61 is slid left or right along the sliding groove 131 to expose the mobile phone charging port 81, and the mobile phone data cable is inserted into the mobile phone charging tail plug to charge the mobile phone, expanding the application scenarios of the car charging bracket 100 and improving the user experience.
[0043] In this embodiment, the vehicle charging bracket 100 further includes a light-emitting component 70, which is electrically connected to the first circuit board 31 and emits light that passes through the housing assembly 10. The light-emitting component 70 can make the product look more stylish and can also be used to display charging status, etc.
[0044] Specifically, the light-emitting component 70 includes an LED lamp 72 electrically connected to the first circuit board 31 and a light guide 71. The rear shell 12 is provided with a light guide hole 123, and the light guide 71 is disposed in the light guide hole 123. The light emitted by the LED lamp 72 is transmitted to the outside of the shell assembly 10 through the light guide 71. The light guide 71 makes the light softer.
