[0002] With the widespread adoption of wireless charging technology for mobile phones, the demand for in-vehicle wireless chargers is increasing. Currently, the main technical solutions for in-vehicle wireless charger mounting brackets on the market are as follows: one uses a simple fixing bolt structure to directly fix the bracket to the vehicle's interior panel; the other uses a ball joint structure, adjusting the bracket angle through friction. These existing technologies have been widely used in practical applications, providing basic solutions for the installation of in-vehicle devices.

[0003] During the implementation of this application's embodiments, the inventors discovered that existing bracket angle adjustment structures suffer from poor stability. Traditional ball joint structures rely primarily on simple friction to maintain the angle position, lacking an effective damping mechanism. This leads to easy angle shifts during vehicle bumps, affecting the user experience. Utility Model Content

[0004] The main technical problem solved by the embodiments of this application is to provide a mounting bracket that, by setting a damping component, can achieve the technical effect of 360-degree free rotation of the mounting bracket and remain stationary at any angle.

[0006] Optionally, the fastening assembly further includes a limiting seat and a knob. One end of the knob is connected to the bottom cover, and the limiting seat is fixedly connected to one end of the support rod. The knob is provided with an annular groove, and the surface of the limiting seat opposite to the support rod is provided with a protrusion that cooperates with the annular groove. The first flat washer and the corrugated washer are sequentially sleeved on the protrusion.

[0007] Optionally, the damping assembly further includes a second flat washer, the first plane abutting against the limiting seat, the corrugated washer being sleeved on the support rod and located on the side of the first flat washer away from the limiting seat, and the corrugated washer being disposed between the first flat washer and the second flat washer.

[0008] Optionally, the corrugations of the corrugated gasket are distributed in a ring array.

[0009] Optionally, the outer periphery of the support rod is provided with a limiting step, and the first flat washer abuts against the limiting step.

The terminology used in this specification is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to limit the scope of the application. The term "and / or" as used in this specification includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0023] Furthermore, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of this application described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0024] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the mounting bracket 100 of this embodiment includes a bottom cover 1, a ball joint assembly 2, a damping assembly 3, and a fastening assembly 4. The bottom cover 1 is fixed to the vehicle interior panel, the ball joint assembly 2 is mounted on the bottom cover 1, and the damping assembly 3 and the fastening assembly 4 cooperate to achieve the angle adjustment function.

[0025] The bottom cover 1 is the basic component of the mounting bracket 100, and the bottom cover 1 has a through hole 11. The mounting bracket 100 also includes bolts 12, which pass through the through hole 11 to firmly fix the bottom cover 1 to the vehicle interior panel. The bottom cover 1 is made of ABS engineering plastic, which has sufficient strength and durability. The ball joint assembly 2 includes a universal ball joint 21 and a support rod 22. The lower end of the support rod 22 is connected to the bottom cover 1, and the support rod 22 can rotate relative to the bottom cover 1. The upper end of the support rod 22 is integrally formed with the universal ball joint 21. The universal ball joint 21 is made of metal and has been surface polished to ensure smooth rotation. The support rod 22 is made of high-strength alloy steel to ensure the overall structural strength. The damping assembly 3 includes a first flat washer 31 and a corrugated washer 32. The first flat washer 31 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the support rod 22 and fits tightly with the outer surface of the support rod 22. The corrugated washer 32 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the support rod 22, and the corrugations of the corrugated washer 32 are distributed in a ring array to ensure the uniformity of the damping force. The fastening assembly 4 includes a knob 41, a limiting seat 42, and a lock nut 43. One end of the knob 41 is connected to the bottom cover 1, and the surface of the knob 41 is provided with anti-slip texture 411 to increase friction during operation. The knob 41 is provided with an annular groove 412, which fits with the protrusion 421 of the limiting seat 42. The limiting seat 42 is fixedly connected to the end of the support rod 22, and the first flat washer 31 and the corrugated washer 32 are sequentially sleeved on the protrusion 421. The lock nut 43 engages with the thread on the support rod 22 to adjust the preload of the entire mechanism.

[0026] In practical applications, the bottom cover 1 is first fixed to the vehicle interior panel using bolts 12. During installation, the support rod 22 passes through the center hole of the knob 41, and then the first flat washer 31 and the corrugated washer 32 are inserted in sequence. The limiting seat 42 engages with the annular groove 412 of the knob 41 through its protrusion 421, and is finally locked with the anti-loosening nut 43.

[0027] When the angle of the universal ball joint 21 needs to be adjusted, the user can directly rotate the ball joint. At this time, the corrugated washer 32 will generate appropriate damping force. By adjusting the tightness of the anti-loosening nut 43, the damping magnitude can be changed. The anti-slip texture 411 on the surface of the limit seat 41 increases the stability of operation. The entire installation section can achieve 360-degree omnidirectional adjustment and can remain stable at any angle. This embodiment, through the above structural design, uses standard parts as the main components, effectively reducing production costs. The annular array structure of the corrugated washer 32 provides stable and uniform damping force. The anti-slip texture 411 design of the knob 41 enhances the reliability of operation. The overall structure is compact, easy to install, and simple to maintain. The angle adjustment of the bracket is smooth, the positioning is accurate, and the service life is long.

[0028] This embodiment solves the problems of complex bracket structure and inconvenient adjustment in the prior art, and is particularly suitable for various in-vehicle wireless chargers and mobile phone holders. All components use standard parts, which facilitates mass production and has good market application value.

[0029] This embodiment provides a vehicle-mounted wireless charger mounting bracket 100 with a double flat pad structure. By optimizing the structure of the support rod 22 and the configuration of the damping components, the stability and service life of the mounting bracket 100 are improved. (See attached diagram.) Figure 1-3 The specific structure of this embodiment will be described in detail.

[0030] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the mounting bracket 100 of this embodiment mainly consists of a bottom cover 1, a ball joint assembly 2, and an improved damping assembly 3. The damping assembly 3 employs a double flat washer structure, and a limiting step 221 is provided on the support rod 22, achieving a more stable support effect. Specifically, the bottom cover 1, as the basic mounting component of the mounting bracket 100, is made of high-strength engineering plastic, and its structural design ensures a stable connection with the vehicle interior panel. A through hole 11 is provided at the center of the bottom cover 1 for connection with the ball joint assembly 2. The ball joint assembly 2 includes a universal ball joint 21 and a support rod 22. The support rod 22 and the universal ball joint 21 are integrally fixed, and the entire assembly is formed through precision machining. This integrated design eliminates the loosening risks that may arise from traditional welding or assembly methods, significantly improving structural strength and reliability. Furthermore, the setting of the limiting step 221, with its double flat washer structure, provides a reliable positioning reference.

[0031] The damping assembly 3 includes a first flat washer 31, a corrugated washer 32, and a second flat washer 33. The first flat washer 31 abuts against the limiting seat 42, and its surface is precision ground to ensure uniform contact with the limiting seat 42. The other plane of the first flat washer 31 contacts the corrugated washer 32, forming the first damping interface. The corrugated washer 32 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the support rod 22 and is located between the first flat washer 31 and the second flat washer 33. The corrugated washer 32 is made of a special elastic material, and its structural design ensures good deformation recovery performance. Furthermore, the second flat washer 33 is located on the other side of the corrugated washer 32 and abuts against the limiting step 221 of the support rod 22. This ensures the stability of the damping assembly 3 and prevents displacement during use. When the angle of the universal ball joint 21 is adjusted, the limiting seat 42 drives the first flat washer 31 to rotate. Because the corrugated washer 32 is confined between the two flat washers, the damping force generated by its deformation is more uniform. The limiting step 221 on the support rod 22, in conjunction with the second flat washer 33, prevents axial movement of the damping assembly 3. This results in a smoother adjustment process and more accurate positioning. The integrated design of the ball joint assembly 22 ensures that it will not loosen during frequent adjustments. The connection between the support rod 22 and the universal ball joint 21 undergoes special reinforcement treatment, providing higher fatigue resistance.

[0032] In this embodiment, the integrated ball joint assembly 2 design improves overall strength and avoids the reliability risks of traditional connection methods. The double-flat-waist structure of the first flat washer 31 and the second flat washer 32, combined with the setting of the limiting step 221, makes the transmission of damping force more uniform and the adjustment smoother. The stability and durability of the overall structure are significantly improved, while maintaining a low production cost. This embodiment is particularly suitable for vehicle-mounted equipment brackets with high requirements for stability and durability, providing a more reliable solution for the installation of vehicle-mounted wireless chargers.

[0033] Please continue reading. Figure 3 In some embodiments, the damping component 3 further includes a sponge pad 5, which is disposed between the support rod 22 and the bolt 12. The sponge pad 5 is made of high-density polyurethane material. When the mounting bracket 100 is not installed on the vehicle, its moderate elastic deformation capacity effectively restricts the axial movement of the bolt 12, preventing abnormal noise. A stable abutment relationship is formed between the support rod 22 and the sponge pad 5. Through a reasonable pre-pressure design, the stability of the support is ensured without affecting the limiting function of the sponge pad 5 on the bolt.

[0034] In this embodiment, the innovative design of the sponge pad 5 effectively improves the stability of the mounting bracket 100. The integrated ball joint assembly 2 enhances structural strength and reliability. The multi-layer pad structure optimizes the damping effect. The overall solution achieves a balance between structural simplification and cost control while ensuring functionality, making it suitable for in-vehicle equipment bracket applications with high requirements for comfort and stability, and providing a superior solution for the installation of automotive electronic devices.

[0035] This application provides a mounting bracket 100, including a bottom cover 1, a ball joint assembly 2, a damping assembly 3, and a fastening assembly 4. The bottom cover 1 is fixed to a vehicle interior trim panel. The ball joint assembly 2 includes a universal ball joint and a support rod 22. One end of the support rod 22 is connected to the bottom cover 1, and the other end of the support rod 22 is fixedly connected to the universal ball joint 21. The damping assembly 3 includes a first flat washer 31 and a corrugated washer 32. The first flat washer 31 is sleeved on the support rod 22, and the corrugated washer is sleeved on the outer periphery of the support rod 22. The first flat washer 31 is provided with a first flat surface that abuts against the support rod 22. The support rod 22 has a second plane that abuts against the corrugated washer 32, which is sleeved on the outer periphery of the support rod 22. The fastening assembly 4 includes a lock nut 43, which is threadedly connected to a screw hole on the support rod 22. The lock nut 43 forms a pre-tightening force with the knob 42 through the corrugated washer 32 and the first flat washer 31. Through the above structural design, standard parts are used as the main components, effectively reducing production costs. The corrugated washer provides stable and uniform damping force, and the limiting seat enhances the reliability of operation. The overall structure is compact, easy to install, and simple to maintain. The bracket angle adjustment is smooth, the positioning is accurate, and the service life is long.
