[0048] Please refer to the attached document. Figures 1-7 This application provides a damping mechanism 100 for supporting electronic products.

[0049] Please refer to the attached document. Figures 1-7In the embodiments of this application, the damping mechanism 100 includes a connecting seat 10, a rotating seat 20, a support seat 30, and a damping element 40. The connecting seat 10 is used to connect electronic devices or support components. The rotating seat 20 is rotatably connected to the connecting seat 10. The support seat 30 is oscillatingly connected to the rotating seat 20 and rotates with the rotating seat 20. The support seat 30 oscillates relative to the rotating seat 20 and can be folded or opened with the rotating seat 20. This allows the support seat 30 to oscillate and rotate relative to the connecting seat 10 via the rotating seat 20, avoiding the support seat 30 only being able to oscillate. At the same time, the damping element 40 is connected to the connecting seat 10 and applies a damping force to the rotating seat 20. When the rotating seat 20 rotates relative to the connecting seat 10, the damping element 40 acts sequentially at different positions in the rotating seat 20, increasing the damping effect, reducing the speed of the rotating seat 20 relative to the support seat 30, preventing the rotating seat 20 from rotating freely, and improving the functionality of the damping mechanism 100.

[0050] Please refer to the attached document. Figure 2 and 5 In the embodiments of this application, the connecting seat 10 is used to connect electronic devices or support members so that the connecting seat 10 is fixed to the electronic devices or support members, thereby realizing the fixing of the damping mechanism 100 to the electronic devices or support members.

[0051] Please refer to the attached document. Figures 3-4 6. In the embodiments of this application, the rotating seat 20 is disposed on the upper side of the connecting seat 10, and the rotating seat 20 is rotatably connected to the connecting seat 10 so as to adjust the position of the rotating seat 20 relative to the connecting seat 10 so as to achieve the rotation effect of the rotating seat 20.

[0052] Please refer to the attached document. Figures 1-4 In the embodiments of this application, the support base 30 is disposed on the upper side of the rotating base 20. The support base 30 is swayably connected to the rotating base 20 to facilitate adjustment of the swaying position of the support base 30 relative to the rotating base 20. The support base 30 rotates as the rotating base 20 rotates. The support base 30 sways relative to the rotating base 20 and can be folded or opened with the rotating base 20. This allows the support base 30 to sway and rotate relative to the connecting base 10 via the rotating base 20, avoiding the support base 30 only being able to sway. When the support base 30 can be opened with the rotating base 20, it allows the electronic device supported by the support base 30 to be arranged in an inclined direction, thereby facilitating the adjustment of the electronic device to a suitable viewing position. When the support base 30 can be folded with the rotating base 20, it reduces the space occupied between the support base 30 and the rotating base 20, making it convenient for storage.

[0053] Please refer to the attached document. Figure 5 and 7In the embodiments of this application, the damping element 40 is located between the connecting seat 10 and the rotating seat 20. The damping element 40 is connected to the connecting seat 10 and applies a damping force to the rotating seat 20. When the rotating seat 20 rotates relative to the connecting seat 10, the damping element 40 acts sequentially at different positions in the rotating seat 20, increasing the damping effect, thereby reducing the speed of the rotating seat 20 relative to the support seat 30, preventing the rotating seat 20 from rotating freely, and improving the functionality of the damping mechanism 100.

[0054] Please refer to the attached document. Figures 4-5 The connecting seat 10 is provided with a connecting groove 10a; the connecting groove 10a serves as the internal space of the connecting seat 10. The damping member 40 includes a connecting arm 41 and a damping part 42. The connecting arm 41 and the damping part 42 are either integrally connected or separately connected, ensuring the connection strength between the connecting arm 41 and the damping part 42 and improving the connection stability between the connecting arm 41 and the damping part 42. The connecting arm 41 is connected to the connecting groove 10a, so that the damping member 40 is connected to the connecting seat 10; so that the damping member 40 is fixed to the connecting seat 10. The damping part 42 faces the rotating seat 20. The damping part 42 is elastically connected to the connecting arm 41 and applies an elastic damping force to the rotating seat 20, so that the damping member 40 can apply an elastic damping force to the rotating seat 20 through the damping part 42, increasing the damping effect, realizing the deceleration of the rotating seat 20 relative to the support seat 30, and preventing the rotating seat 20 from rotating freely.

[0055] Please refer to the attached document. Figures 4-5 The damping part 42 has a U-shaped structure. The damping part 42 protrudes towards the rotating seat 20 relative to the connecting arm 41 and is inserted into the rotating seat 20. When there is no external force, the outer wall of the damping part 42 restricts the rotation of the rotating seat 20, preventing the rotating seat 20 from rotating freely. When there is an external force, the rotating seat 20 compresses the damping part 42 to realize the rotation of the rotating seat 20.

[0056] Please refer to the attached document. Figure 7 The two ends of the damping part 42 are respectively connected to the connecting arm 41. The connection between the connecting arm 41 and the damping part 42 is a rounded transition. The rounded transition can disperse the stress concentrated in the local area of ​​the connection, thereby reducing the occurrence of stress concentration and preventing the connection between the connecting arm 41 and the damping part 42 from breaking due to the long-term elastic compression of the damping part 42.

[0057] Please refer to the attached document. Figures 1-4The connecting seat 10 is sleeved inside the rotating seat 20, and the outer contour of the rotating seat 20 covers the connecting seat 10, which improves the aesthetics of the damping mechanism 100. The peripheral side wall of the rotating seat 20 is provided with a gear part 21. When the rotating seat 20 rotates relative to the connecting seat 10, the outer contour of the damping part 42 matches the inner contour of the gear part 21. The damping part 42 elastically contacts the gear part 21 and is inserted into each limiting groove in the gear part 21 in sequence. The damping part 42 applies a damping force to the gear part 21 by engaging each limiting groove in the gear part 21, thereby facilitating the damping part 42 to limit the rotation speed of the gear part 21, realizing the deceleration of the rotating seat 20 relative to the support seat 30, avoiding the free rotation of the rotating seat 20, and improving the functionality of the damping mechanism 100. Optionally, the limiting groove is an arc groove, which is adapted to the damping part 42. During rotation, the gear part 21 disengages from the damping part 42 along the inner contour of the arc groove, thereby improving the smoothness of the rotation of the gear part 21.

[0058] Please refer to the attached document. Figure 5 One end of the connecting arm 41 elastically contacts the inner wall of the connecting groove 10a so that the connecting arm 41 can move elastically relative to the connecting groove 10a. Through the elastic space between the connecting arm 41 and the connecting groove 10a, the damping part 42 can be elastically compressed relative to the gear part 21.

[0059] Please refer to the attached document. Figure 1 The support base 30 is hinged to the rotating base 20, allowing the support base 30 to swing relative to the rotating base 20 via the hinge. This facilitates manual adjustment of the swing position of the support base 30 relative to the rotating base 20, enabling the support base 30 to be opened or folded relative to the rotating base 20. When the support base 30 can be opened from the rotating base 20, it allows the electronic device supported by the support base 30 to be arranged along the tilt direction, making it easier to adjust the electronic device to a suitable viewing position. When the support base 30 can be folded from the rotating base 20, it reduces the space occupied between the support base 30 and the rotating base 20, facilitating storage.

[0060] Please refer to the attached document. Figure 1 A hinge 50 is provided between the support base 30 and the rotating base 20. The hinge 50 is located between the support base 30 and the rotating base 20. One end of the hinge 50 is connected to the support base 30, and the other end of the hinge 50 is connected to the rotating base 20, so that the support base 30 can swing relative to the rotating base 20 through the action of the hinge 50.

[0061] Please refer to the attached document. Figure 1 and 3The rotating base 20 is provided with a receiving groove 20a; the receiving groove 20a is recessed from top to bottom in the rotating base 20, with the opening of the receiving groove 20a facing upwards, and the support base 30 can be received in the receiving groove 20a, so that the support base 30 can be folded relative to the rotating base 20 through the space of the receiving groove 20a, so that the upper surface of the support base 30 is flush with the upper surface of the rotating base 20, ensuring the aesthetics between the support base 30 and the rotating base 20.
