In related technologies, one end of the bracket is used to hold the mobile device, and the other end has adhesive or a suction cup; for example, adhesive is used to attach the bracket to the vehicle's interior, and the suction cup is used to attach the bracket to the interior. Because the bracket is highly integrated, damage to either end makes repair or replacement inconvenient. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of this, the present application aims to provide a bracket to improve the convenience of bracket maintenance or replacement and to extend the service life of the bracket.

[0004] This application provides a bracket, including:

[0005] The carrier component is used to carry the mobile terminal;

[0006] Mounting components are used to connect to the support surface of the mounting object;

[0007] A connecting component connects the load-bearing component and the mounting component. The connecting component includes a first connecting structure and a second connecting structure arranged along a first direction. One end of the first connecting structure is connected to the mounting component, and one end of the second connecting structure is connected to the load-bearing component. The second connecting structure includes at least a flexible portion that can be bent and deformed under external force.

[0008] The end of the first connecting structure away from the mounting component is detachably connected to the end of the second connecting structure away from the bearing component.

[0009] In some embodiments, one of the first connection structure and the second connection structure includes a plug-in cavity and a lock hole disposed on the cavity wall of the plug-in cavity, and the other includes a plug-in portion and a locking tongue disposed on the plug-in portion;

[0010] When the first connecting structure and the second connecting structure are inserted into place, the insertion part is located in the insertion cavity, and the locking tongue is inserted into the lock hole; the locking tongue can retract into the insertion cavity under the action of external force, so that the first connecting structure and the second connecting structure can be separated.

[0011] In some embodiments, the latch is exposed outside the bracket through the keyhole.

[0012] In some embodiments, the insertion portion includes a spring arm, the locking tongue is disposed on the spring arm, and the spring arm is used to drive the locking tongue to insert or retract from the locking tongue.

[0013] In some embodiments, the bracket further includes a pressing member connected to the cavity wall of the insertion cavity, the pressing member covering at least a portion of the latch, the pressing member being able to press the latch toward the interior of the insertion cavity under external force to cause the latch to exit the lock hole and retract into the insertion cavity.

[0014] In some embodiments, the insertion cavity and the pressing member are both disposed in the second connecting structure, and the insertion part and the locking tongue are disposed in the first connecting structure.

[0015] In some embodiments, the second connection structure includes a rigid connection portion connected to the end of the flexible portion away from the load-bearing component, and the insertion cavity and the pressing member are both disposed in the connection portion.

[0033] This application provides a bracket; please refer to... Figure 1 It includes a support component 10, a mounting component 20, and a connecting component 30.

[0034] The support assembly 10 is used to support the mobile terminal. It is understood that the bracket can provide support for the mobile terminal placed on the support assembly 10.

[0035] Mounting assembly 20 is used to connect to the support surface of the object to be mounted. It is understood that mounting assembly 20 is capable of transferring the load on the bracket to the support surface.

[0036] It should be noted that the installation object refers to the object used to place the bracket. For example, the installation object can be the center console of the vehicle or the glass of the vehicle. This application does not limit the installation object.

[0037] It should be noted that the specific method by which the mounting component 20 is connected to the support surface of the object to be installed is not limited. For example, the mounting component 20 can be bonded to the support surface by means of adhesion, or it can be adsorbed onto the support surface by the difference between the internal and external atmospheric pressure.

[0038] Please refer to Figure 2 The connecting component 30 connects the supporting component 10 and the mounting component 20. The connecting component 30 includes a first connecting structure 31 and a second connecting structure 32 arranged along a first direction. One end of the first connecting structure 31 is connected to the mounting component 20, and one end of the second connecting structure 32 is connected to the supporting component 10. It is understood that the connecting component 30 can transfer the weight of the mobile terminal placed on the supporting component 10 to the mounting component 20, and thus to the support surface of the mounted object.

[0039] It should be noted that the first direction refers to Figure 1 The direction indicated by the first arrow is the extension direction of the connecting component.

[0040] Please refer to Figure 2The second connection structure 32 includes at least a flexible portion 32a, which can be bent and deformed under external force. It is understood that the user can apply a force to the flexible portion 32a to cause it to bend and deform, thereby adjusting the support angle of the support component 10 on the mobile terminal, and thus adjusting the viewing angle of the mobile terminal, which can improve the user's ease of use.

[0041] It should be noted that the flexible part 32a can be bent and deformed under the action of external force, which means that the flexible part 32a can be bent and deformed under the action of external force, and can maintain its shape after the external force is removed, that is, it can maintain the bent shape.

[0042] This application provides a bracket in which the end of a first connecting structure 31 away from the mounting component 20 is detachably connected to the end of a second connecting structure 32 away from the supporting component 10. Thus, during use, the user can detach the first connecting structure 31 and the second connecting structure 32. On one hand, when one end of the mounting component 20 or the supporting component 10 is damaged, the user can repair or replace only that end, avoiding the need to repair or replace the entire bracket, thus improving maintenance convenience. On the other hand, when the user needs to adjust the support angle of the supporting component 10 on the mobile terminal by bending the flexible part 32a, the second connecting structure 32 can be detached separately, allowing the user to apply force to the flexible part 32a of the second connecting structure 32 individually, further improving user convenience.

[0043] It should be noted that there are no restrictions on the specific method by which the first connecting structure 31 and the second connecting structure 32 can be detachably connected.

[0044] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 6 and Figure 7 One of the first connecting structure 31 and the second connecting structure 32 includes a plug cavity and a lock hole disposed on the cavity wall of the plug cavity, and the other includes a plug portion 31a and a locking tongue 31b disposed on the plug portion 31a.

[0045] It should be noted that the configuration schemes of the insertion cavity and the insertion part 31a include the following: First, the first connecting structure 31 includes an insertion cavity and a lock hole disposed on the cavity wall of the insertion cavity, and the second connecting structure 32 includes the insertion part 31a and a locking tongue 31b disposed on the insertion part 31a; Second, the second connecting structure 32 includes an insertion cavity and a lock hole disposed on the cavity wall of the insertion cavity, and the first connecting structure 31 includes the insertion part 31a and a locking tongue 31b disposed on the insertion part 31a.

[0046] Please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5When the first connecting structure 31 and the second connecting structure 32 are inserted into place, the insertion part 31a is located in the insertion cavity, and the locking tongue 31b is inserted into the locking hole. In this way, the locking tongue 31b and the locking hole lock the first connecting structure 31 and the second connecting structure 32, so that the load-bearing component 10 can stably transfer the load of the mobile terminal to the mounting component 20, thereby ensuring the stability of the bracket when supporting the mobile terminal.

[0047] The locking tongue 31b can retract into the insertion cavity under external force, so that the first connecting structure 31 and the second connecting structure 32 can be separated. It is understood that when the user needs to separate the first connecting structure 31 and the second connecting structure 32, they only need to apply force to the locking tongue 31b, causing it to retract into the insertion cavity. The operation is simple and allows the user to quickly separate the first connecting structure 31 and the second connecting structure 32.

[0048] In some embodiments, the latch 31b is exposed outside the bracket through the keyhole. It is understood that having the latch 31b exposed outside the bracket after insertion into the keyhole allows the user to apply force to the latch 31b from outside the bracket, improving user convenience.

[0049] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 6 The insertion part 31a includes a spring arm 31a1, and a locking tongue 31b is disposed on the spring arm 31a1. The spring arm 31a1 is used to drive the locking tongue 31b into or out of the lock hole. Thus, driven by the spring arm 31a1, the user only needs to apply a small force to the locking tongue 31b to retract it into the insertion cavity, improving user convenience. Furthermore, the spring arm 31a1 itself has a certain rebound force. When the external force is removed, the rebound force of the spring arm 31a1 can also drive the locking tongue 31b into or out of the lock hole without user intervention, further improving user convenience. For example, the spring arm 31a1 can undergo elastic deformation under external force to drive the locking tongue 31b out of the lock hole; when the external force is removed, the rebound force of the spring arm 31a1 will drive the locking tongue 31b into the lock hole.

[0050] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6The bracket also includes a pressing member 32d, which is connected to the cavity wall of the insertion cavity. The pressing member 32d covers at least a portion of the latch 31b. Under external force, the pressing member 32d can press the latch 31b towards the interior of the insertion cavity, causing the latch 31b to disengage from the lock hole. It is understood that, on the one hand, the pressing member 32d can cover the latch 31b, reducing the likelihood of the latch 31b being exposed to the user's view and improving the aesthetics of the bracket; on the other hand, the user can apply force to the pressing member 32d to press the latch 31b out of the lock hole, reducing the difficulty of applying force to the latch 31b and improving the user's ease of operation.

[0051] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 The insertion cavity and the pressing member 32d are both located in the second connecting structure 32, while the insertion part 31a and the locking tongue 31b are located in the first connecting structure 31. It is understood that by having the pressing member 32d located in the second connecting structure 32, when the mounting assembly 20 is supported on the mounting surface of the object being mounted, the user can apply force to the pressing member 32d while simultaneously applying force to the second connecting structure 32, causing the second connecting structure 32 to separate from the first connecting structure 31, thus improving the user's ease of operation.

[0052] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The connecting component 30 is flat. Understandably, the dimension of the connecting component 30 in the thickness direction is smaller than that in other directions. On the one hand, this makes the structure of the bracket compact and the appearance neat; on the other hand, it makes it easier for the user to bend the flexible part 32a along the thickness direction, so as to facilitate the user to adjust the support angle of the load-bearing component 10 and improve the user's ease of operation.

[0053] It should be noted that the thickness direction refers to... Figure 4 The arrow in the thickness direction indicates the direction, which is perpendicular to the first direction.

[0054] Please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 The pressing element 32d and the locking hole are located on at least one side of the insertion cavity along the thickness direction. This facilitates the user's application of force to the pressing element 32d while holding the bracket, improving the user's ease of operation.

[0055] It should be noted that the pressing member 32d and the locking hole can also be located on opposite sides of the insertion cavity along the thickness direction. In this way, on the one hand, increasing the number of locking holes can improve the stability of locking the first connecting structure 31 and the second connecting structure 32 by engaging the locking tongue 31b with the locking hole; on the other hand, it makes it easier for the user to apply force to the pressing member 32d on both sides along the thickness direction when holding the bracket, so that the user can quickly separate the first connecting structure 31 and the second connecting structure 32.

[0056] In some embodiments, the first connecting structure 31 is a rigid member. It is understood that, on the one hand, the first connecting structure 31 can provide a certain reaction force to the second connecting structure 32, facilitating bending deformation of the bent portion by the user; on the other hand, the first connecting structure 31 will not undergo significant bending deformation following the flexible portion 32a. This is equivalent to having the first connecting structure 31 as a buffer between the flexible portion 32a and the mounting assembly 20, reducing the impact of the bending deformation of the flexible portion 32a on the mounting assembly 20, thereby ensuring the stability of the bracket support on the support surface of the mounting object.

[0057] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 2 The second connecting structure 32 includes a rigid connecting portion 32b, which is connected to the end of the flexible portion 32a away from the load-bearing component 10. Both the insertion cavity and the pressing member 32d are located in the connecting portion 32b. It is understood that the connecting portion 32b has a certain structural strength and can provide support for the pressing member 32d. When the user applies force to the pressing member 32d, it can reduce the possibility of damage to the pressing member 32d. The connecting portion 32b can also ensure the shape of the insertion cavity, reducing the possibility of deformation of the insertion cavity under external force, thereby ensuring the smoothness of separation between the first connecting structure 31 and the second connecting structure 32. Furthermore, after the latch 31b enters the lock hole, the rigid connecting portion 32b can improve the connection strength between the first connecting structure 31 and the second connecting structure 32.

[0058] It should be noted that the rigid connection 32b refers to the connection 32b having a certain structural strength relative to the flexible part 32a, and maintaining its shape under the action of an external force that can cause the flexible part 32a to bend and deform.

[0059] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and 2The support includes a sheathing layer 40, which covers a portion of the connecting portion 32b and the flexible portion 32a. The flexible portion 32a and the connecting portion 32b are connected through the sheathing layer 40. It is understood that when the flexible portion 32a undergoes bending deformation under external force, the sheathing layer 40 can protect the flexible portion 32a, reducing the possibility of damage during bending deformation and improving the ductility of the flexible portion 32a. Furthermore, the sheathing layer 40 can also improve the connection strength between the connecting portion 32b and the flexible portion 32a, reducing the possibility of damage at the connection point when the flexible portion 32a undergoes bending deformation.

[0060] It should be noted that the specific structure of the flexible part 32a is not limited.

[0061] In some embodiments, the flexible part 32a is made of aluminum, copper, or iron. It is understood that the good ductility of aluminum, copper, or iron allows the flexible part 32a to bend under external force, enabling the user to bend it with a small force to adjust the support angle of the support component 10 on the mobile terminal, thus facilitating the user to adjust the viewing angle of the mobile terminal.

[0062] In some embodiments, the flexible portion 32a is made of soft aluminum.

[0063] In some embodiments, the flexible portion 32a is bendable in the thickness direction of the connecting assembly 30. It is understood that the flexible portion 32a has a small dimension in the thickness direction, and the user needs to apply less force when bending the flexible portion 32a in the thickness direction of the connecting assembly 30, making it easier for the user to bend.

[0064] For example, please refer to Figure 5 In the thickness direction of the connecting component 30, the thickness of the first connecting structure 31 is ( Figure 5 D2 shown is greater than the thickness of the flexible portion 32a. Figure 5 As shown in D1). In this way, the structural strength of the first connecting structure 31 in the thickness direction of the connecting component 30 can be guaranteed. On the one hand, it can improve the reaction force provided by the first connecting structure 31 to the second connecting structure 32, making it easier for the user to bend and deform the bending part. On the other hand, it can improve the buffering effect of the first connecting structure 31, and reduce the impact of the bending deformation of the flexible part 32a on the mounting component 20, so as to ensure the stability of the bracket support on the support surface of the mounting object.

[0065] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 4 In the first direction, the dimensions of the first connecting structure 31 ( Figure 4 The dimensions of L1 shown are the same as those of the second connection structure 32. Figure 4 The ratio of L1 / L2 shown is 1.2 to 3.0, i.e., 1.2 ≤ L1 / L2 ≤ 3.0. This makes the ratio of the first connecting structure 31 to the second connecting structure 32 reasonable, which can increase the range of the support angle of the first connecting structure 31 on the mobile terminal by adjusting the bearing component 10, and improve the user's ease of operation.

[0066] In some embodiments, the support assembly 10 includes a support plate and a magnetic suction member disposed on the support plate. The support plate is used to support the mobile terminal, and the magnetic suction member is used to magnetically attract the mobile terminal to fix it magnetically to the support plate. It is understood that the mobile terminal can establish a connection with the bracket through the magnetic force of the magnetic suction member, and then be supported on the support surface of the installation object by the bracket, making it convenient for the user to use the mobile terminal without using their hands.
