Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electronic product protective case technology, specifically to a protective case with a rotatable bracket that allows for adjustment of the support method for electronic products as needed during use. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, to protect electronic products such as mobile phones, tablets, power banks, and game consoles from damage in case of accidental drops, users typically place these devices in protective cases. To facilitate use on desktops and other platforms, protective cases often feature adjustable stands on the back, allowing the device to tilt relative to the surface for improved comfort. Commonly, one end of the stand is hinged to the base of the protective case, allowing it to fold or unfold relative to the base to support the device, such as for landscape or portrait mode. A key challenge is finding a simple structure where the connection between the stand and the base can both rotate within the base and fold relative to it. Ideally, this connection should be located within the base, rotatably connected to it while simultaneously hinged to the stand. As the connection rotates relative to the base, the stand rotates synchronously. Solving this problem would allow for support on the same stand for both landscape and portrait modes, depending on the user's needs. Furthermore, during landscape or portrait mode support, the connection between the stand and the base should be self-locking, but this self-locking can be released by applying appropriate external force.

[0010] Preferably, the outer wall of the upper ring is provided with a plurality of connecting notches, and the inner wall of the cylindrical mounting part is provided with a plurality of connecting protrusions that are respectively connected to the connecting notches to prevent the positioning ring from rotating relative to the cylindrical mounting part; there are eight self-locking notches, and the angle between two adjacent self-locking notches is 45 degrees.

[0011] Preferably, it further includes a bottom mounting plate disposed at the other end of the cylindrical mounting portion; the bottom mounting plate is integrally formed by a lower base plate and an upper base plate disposed on its surface and coaxially disposed therewith; the diameter of the lower base plate is larger than the diameter of the upper base plate; the lower ring is sleeved on the outer wall of the upper base plate and the two can rotate relative to each other.

An elastic component located inside the rotating plate can be separated and self-locked with the self-locking notch on the positioning ring during the rotation of the rotating plate relative to the positioning ring and the base plate. That is, after self-locking, the self-locking state can be released after applying an appropriate external force, allowing the rotating plate to continue rotating relative to the base plate. For example, with the bracket supporting the shell horizontally as the initial state, rotating the rotating plate and the bracket 90 degrees clockwise or counterclockwise can make the bracket support the shell vertically. At this time, the free end of the elastic component self-locks with one of the self-locking notches, which can keep the support state stable and prevent the bracket from rotating or shaking relative to the base plate when no external force is applied. Therefore, the structure of this utility model not only facilitates the rotation of the rotating assembly relative to the base plate to adjust the support state (horizontal or vertical) of the bracket on the shell, but also achieves stable support through the self-locking structure during support, thus having the effect of convenient use.

Detailed Implementation

[0023] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0024] like Figures 4-5As shown, this utility model embodiment provides an electronic product protective case with a rotatable bracket, used to protect electronic products such as mobile phones, tablets, power banks, and game consoles; it includes a shell 1 with a base plate 101; a bracket device connected to the shell, the bracket device including a bracket 2 disposed on the back of the base plate; a cylindrical mounting portion 101a protruding from the back of the base plate on the base plate; the bracket device also includes a rotating component 3 with a rotating plate 301, a positioning ring 4 fixed in the cylindrical mounting portion and having several self-locking notches 401 on its inner wall; an elastic component 6 disposed in the rotating plate; the rotating plate 301 is disposed on the end of the cylindrical mounting portion protruding from the back of the base plate and the two can rotate relative to each other, that is, the rotating plate is movably disposed on the end of the cylindrical mounting portion and can rotate relative to the cylindrical mounting portion; one end of the bracket 2 is connected to the rotating component 3. The bracket is hinged and can rotate relative to the base plate. Here, "rotatable relative to the base plate" means that when supporting the housing 1, the rotating bracket adjusts its support angle relative to the base plate. When the bracket rotates relative to the base plate, the elastic component and the rotating plate rotate accordingly. At this time, the free end of the elastic component contacts the inner wall of the positioning ring. When the free end of the elastic component rotates to one of the self-locking notches, the free end is inserted into the self-locking notch, and the two can be separated and engaged. It should be noted that "when the bracket rotates relative to the base plate" here means that the end of the bracket hinged to the rotating component 3 rotates 360 degrees on the base plate 101. That is, at this time, the free end of the elastic component extends into the self-locking notch, and without external force, the rotating plate 301 can no longer rotate or shake relative to the positioning ring 4 and the base plate 101. However, when an appropriate external force is applied, it can push the driving bracket, the elastic component, and the rotating plate to rotate relative to the base plate.

[0025] like Figures 5-6 As shown, the rotating assembly 3 further includes a hinge portion 302 fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the rotating plate 301. The hinge portion includes a first shaft hole 302a located on the outer side of the rotating plate. The rotating plate used in this embodiment is circular. The hinge portion 302 also includes a transition plate 302b fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the rotating plate 301, and a hinge plate 302c integrally formed with the outer edge of the transition plate. The first shaft hole 302a is provided on the outer edge of the hinge plate, and the two are integrally formed.

[0026] The support device also includes a movable frame 7, which includes a movable plate 701 fixedly connected to one end of the support 2, and a second shaft hole 702 provided on the rear edge of the movable plate; there are two first shaft holes 302a arranged in a straight line; the second shaft hole is embedded between the two first shaft holes 302a and all three are coaxial; it also includes a rotating shaft 8 passing through the two first shaft holes 302a and the second shaft hole 702. That is, the rotating plate 301 is hinged to one end of the support 2 through the hinge part 302 and the movable frame 7.

[0027] like Figures 5-6As shown, the elastic component 6 includes a spring 601 disposed within the rotating plate 301, and a locking pin 602 connected at one end to one end of the spring, i.e., the two are assembled in a straight line; the other end of the locking pin is the free end of the elastic component; the surface of the free end is an arc-shaped surface, and the surfaces on both sides of the opening of the self-locking notch 401 are arc-shaped surfaces, which facilitates the two to be combined to achieve self-locking and to separate the two when an external force is applied, preventing the free end from locking with the self-locking notch; when the free end contacts the inner wall of the positioning ring, the spring is compressed, therefore, when the free end moves to the self-locking notch, the spring is released and pushes the locking pin 602 forward, so that when the free end of the elastic component rotates to one of the self-locking notches, the free end extends into the self-locking notch to achieve self-locking; the positioning ring 4 and the cylindrical mounting part 101a are both circular.

[0028] like Figures 1-6 As shown, the rotating plate 301 is integrally formed from a circular upper panel 301a and a lower panel 301b, which are coaxially arranged and the diameter of the lower panel is smaller than that of the upper panel; a radially arranged receiving groove 301c is provided in the lower panel, and the receiving groove is connected to a radial notch 301d located at the edge of the lower panel and whose width is smaller than its width.

[0029] like Figures 5-6 As shown, the locking pin 602 is integrally formed from a cylindrical body 602a and a protruding ring 602b on the outer wall of the body. During assembly, the spring 601 is arranged along the length of the receiving groove 301c and its other end abuts against the inner side of the receiving groove. The end of the spring connected to the locking pin abuts against the inner end face of the protruding ring. The outer diameter of the protruding ring is greater than the width of the radial notch 301d and the outer end face of the protruding ring abuts against the outer side of the receiving groove 301c. That is, after assembly, both the protruding ring and the spring are located in the receiving groove 301c. The section of the cylindrical body 602a located outside the protruding ring 602b is defined as the locking section 6021a. The locking section is movably disposed within the radial notch 301d. The free end is the end of the locking section and the end face of the free end protrudes from the outer wall of the lower panel 301b so that the end face of the free end always remains in contact with the inner wall of the positioning ring 4. The free end can extend and retract radially along the lower panel.

[0030] Specifically, such as Figure 5 As shown, the positioning ring 4 is integrally formed from an upper ring 402 and a lower ring 403 with a diameter larger than the upper ring and coaxially arranged with it; the self-locking notch 401 is provided on the inner wall of the upper ring and the upper ring is sleeved on the outer wall of the lower panel 301b. With this structure, since the positioning ring 4 remains stationary, while the lower panel 301b and the rotating plate 301 can rotate relative to the positioning ring, the upper ring 402 here has the function of an axis.

[0031] Meanwhile, the outer wall of the upper ring 402 is provided with a number of connecting notches 402a, and the inner wall of the cylindrical mounting part 101a is provided with a number of connecting protrusions 101b that are respectively connected to the connecting notches to prevent the positioning ring 4 from rotating relative to the cylindrical mounting part. When the connecting protrusions are engaged with the connecting notches 402a, the positioning ring 4 can be prevented from rotating relative to the cylindrical mounting part.

[0032] In this embodiment, there are eight self-locking notches 401, and the angle between any two adjacent self-locking notches 401 is 45 degrees. Obviously, the number of self-locking notches is not specific and can be set as needed. Generally, for ease of processing, several self-locking notches are evenly distributed within a 360-degree circumferential surface, meaning each self-locking notch is located at an equal interval on the circumferential surface. Therefore, it can be either the eight self-locking notches in this embodiment or other numbers of self-locking notches, and the achieved effect is basically the same.

[0033] like Figure 5 As shown, to install the rotating assembly 3, the main component is a fixed rotating plate 301, which also includes a bottom mounting plate 5 located at the other end of the cylindrical mounting portion 101a. The bottom mounting plate is integrally formed by a lower base plate 501 and an upper base plate 502 disposed on its surface and coaxially arranged therewith. The diameter of the lower base plate is larger than that of the upper base plate. The lower ring 403 is sleeved on the outer wall of the upper base plate 502, and the two can rotate relative to each other. With this structure, since the positioning ring 4 remains stationary while the upper base plate 502 and the bottom mounting plate 5 can rotate relative to the positioning ring, the lower ring 403 here also serves as an axis.

[0034] like Figures 5-6 As shown, the bottom surface of the lower panel 301b is provided with several vertical insertion posts 9, and the bottom mounting plate 5 is provided with several insertion holes 5a, which are respectively inserted into the insertion posts, thereby fixing the rotating plate 301 to the bottom mounting plate 5 to achieve synchronous rotation; the upper base plate 502 is provided with a strip-shaped countersunk hole 502a located below the receiving groove 301c, and the lower part of the spring 601 is located in the strip-shaped countersunk hole. The number of insertion holes 5a and insertion posts 9 is not specific, as long as they correspond. For example, in this embodiment, the number of both is five.

[0035] In summary, the protective shell of this utility model includes a rotating assembly 3. The rotating plate 301 of the rotating assembly is disposed on the cylindrical mounting portion 101a on the base plate 101 and can rotate relative to the positioning ring 4 fixedly connected to the base plate. The elastic component 6 disposed in the rotating plate 301 can be separably locked with the self-locking notch 401 on the positioning ring during the rotation of the rotating plate 301 relative to the positioning ring 4 and the base plate 101. That is, after the self-locking is achieved, the self-locking state can be released after applying an appropriate external force, and the rotating plate 301 can continue to rotate relative to the base plate 101. For example, the bracket 2 can be used to horizontally support the shell 1. In the initial state, rotating the rotating plate 301 and the bracket 90 degrees clockwise or counterclockwise allows the bracket 2 to provide vertical support for the shell 1. At this time, the free end of the elastic component locks with one of the self-locking notches 401, which keeps the support stable and prevents the bracket 2 from rotating or wobbling relative to the base plate 101 when no external force is applied. Therefore, the structure of this utility model not only facilitates the rotation of the rotating component relative to the base plate to adjust the support state (horizontal or vertical) of the bracket on the shell, but also achieves stable support through the self-locking structure, thus providing a convenient user experience.

[0036] In the above description, it should be noted that the terms "installation", "connection", "connection" and other related terms should be interpreted broadly. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; it can be a connection within two components; "set at" should be understood as "installed at" or "set at", including installation methods such as fixed installation and movable installation.

[0037] Obviously, the embodiments described above are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. The accompanying drawings show preferred embodiments of this utility model, but do not limit the patent scope of this utility model. This utility model can be implemented in many different forms; rather, these embodiments are provided to provide a more thorough and comprehensive understanding of the disclosure of this utility model. Any equivalent structures made based on the description and drawings of this utility model, directly or indirectly applied to other related technical fields, are similarly within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
