[0002] A mirror is a smooth, reflective lens. In real life, mirrors are often used to aid observation in various situations, such as adding a mirror to a vehicle's rearview mirror to increase the field of vision, or attaching a mirror to the back of a phone case for convenience. A Chinese patent with publication number CN111391758A discloses a knob-type suction cup for attaching a small, round, reflective mirror to a car's rearview mirror, preventing it from falling off and facilitating installation and removal. However, this method of using a screw-on suction cup may have drawbacks, such as the threads loosening and the mirror falling off under prolonged vibration and bumps. Furthermore, it requires many rotations to achieve a firm grip, and it's difficult to determine if the rotation is complete. Utility Model Content

[0003] The present invention aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. To this end, the present invention proposes a rotating adsorption mirror structure.

[0004] To achieve the aforementioned objectives, this invention provides a rotating adsorption mirror structure, comprising a housing, a lens, and an adsorption assembly connected to the housing.

[0005] The bottom wall of the housing protrudes to one side to form a mounting base. The top wall of the mounting base is recessed and provided with a mounting groove. The side wall of the mounting base is provided with a mounting opening. At the edge of the mounting opening, a guide slope extends sloping from one end to the other end. A slot is formed at the top of the guide slope.

[0006] The lens is fastened and fixed to the mounting groove by a fixing piece;

[0007] The adsorption assembly includes a sealing diaphragm and a base plate that are fixedly connected. The sealing diaphragm can cover the outside of the housing. The base plate is rotatably connected to the mounting base and a spring is connected between the two. The base plate has a locking block protruding from the mounting opening. The locking block can move along the guide slope to engage and fix with the locking groove.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment, an inlet is also provided at the edge of the mounting port. The shape of the inlet is the same as that of the locking block, and the inlet is separated from the guide slope by a stop block.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment, the stop block has a first inclined surface on the side facing the inlet, and the locking block has a second inclined surface that slides in cooperation with the first inclined surface.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment, the maximum distance that the base plate can move axially within the mounting base is greater than or equal to the height of the stop block.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment, the mounting groove is a spherical groove, one side of the fixing plate is fixedly connected to the lens, and the other side of the fixing plate has a ball head locking post, which is adapted to be snapped into and fixed in the mounting groove.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment, the housing is a groove structure, the opening size of the housing is larger than the size of the lens, and the outer side of the bottom wall of the housing can be covered with the sealing diaphragm.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment, an anti-slip washer is fixedly connected to the outer side of the bottom wall of the housing. The anti-slip washer is distributed on the outer ring of the base plate, and the anti-slip washer is in contact with the sealing diaphragm.

[0014] As a preferred embodiment, the diameter of the sealing diaphragm is greater than or equal to the outer diameter of the anti-slip washer, and the edge of the sealing diaphragm is provided with an extension that protrudes outward. When the sealing diaphragm covers the housing, the extension protrudes outside the housing.

[0015] As a preferred embodiment, the outer side wall of the housing is provided with a plurality of protruding strips at intervals.

[0016] Therefore, based on the technical means of this utility model, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: The rotary adsorption mirror structure provided by this utility model adopts a gradually rising inclined track design (i.e., a guide slope) on the mounting base and a locking block on the base plate that matches the locking groove of the guide slope. This allows the locking block to move along the guide slope and engage with the locking groove during the relative rotation of the mounting base and the base plate, thereby realizing the adsorption function of the adsorption component. Simultaneously, a spring structure is added between the mounting base and the base plate, providing better shock absorption. The spring also helps to press the locking block into the locking groove, preventing disengagement and making the overall connection more secure and stable. In summary, the rotary adsorption mirror structure provided by this utility model differs from the traditional spiral rotation design. Only a small rotation is needed to move the locking block along the guide slope to engage with the locking groove. It is convenient to operate, smooth to use, and has good shock absorption and a robust connection structure. Even under long-term vibration and bumpy conditions, it is not easy to loosen or fall off, exhibiting high stability. Attached Figure Description

[0025] Please refer to the following at the same time Figure 1-5 This embodiment provides a rotating adsorption mirror structure, including a housing 1, a lens 2 and an adsorption assembly 3 connected to the housing 1, wherein the lens 2 is detachably fixed to the housing 1 by a fixing piece 4.

[0026] In this embodiment, the housing 1 is a groove structure, and the opening size of the housing 1 is larger than the size of the lens 2, allowing the lens 2 to rotate slightly within the housing 1. The bottom wall of the housing 1 protrudes towards the opening to form a mounting base 10, and the top wall of the mounting base 10 is recessed to provide a mounting groove 11. It can be understood that the mounting groove 11 is a spherical groove, which is adapted to the ball-head locking post of the fixing piece 4, allowing the fixing piece 4 to be fixedly connected to the mounting base 10 via the mounting groove 11. Simultaneously, through the adapted spherical groove and ball-head locking post, the fixing piece 4 can rotate slightly on the mounting base 10, thereby achieving the purpose of adjustable lens 2 angle. In other embodiments, the housing 1 can have other appearance structures, such as a plate structure or a block structure with a cartoon appearance. The mounting groove 11 can be a groove structure of other shapes, such as a polygonal prism shape, in which case the fixing piece 4 is provided with a locking post structure of a corresponding shape adapted to the shape of the mounting groove 11.

[0027] The mounting base 10 has a mounting opening 12 on its side wall. A guide slope 13 extends obliquely from one end to the other along the edge of the mounting opening 12, and a groove 14 is formed at the top of the guide slope 13. In this embodiment, an inlet 15 is also provided at the edge of the mounting opening 12, and the inlet 15 is separated from the guide slope 13 by a stop block 16. In other embodiments, the inlet 15 may be arranged adjacent to the guide slope 13, in which case the mounting base 10 does not have a stop block 16.

[0028] It is understood that the guide slope 13 forms a gradually rising ramp track on the mounting base 10, allowing the card block of the adsorption component 3 to gradually slide into the top slot 14 under the guidance of the guide slope 13, making it smoother to use. The slot 14 can fasten and fix the card block on the guide slope 13, thereby realizing the adsorption capacity of the adsorption component 3. The shape of the inlet 15 is the same as that of the card block, allowing the card block to enter through the inlet 15 and connect to the guide slope 13. The stop block 16 is used to prevent the card block from sliding into the inlet 15 during normal rotation, ensuring that the adsorption component 3 and the housing 1 will not easily separate, making the connection structure stable. The stop block 16 has a first inclined surface 161 on the side facing the inlet 15. The first inclined surface 161 slides with the card block, allowing the card block to slide and rotate over the stop block 16 to enter and connect to the guide slope 13.

[0029] It should be noted that, unlike the traditional single and thin mounting base structure, the raised, fully enclosed mounting base structure provided in this embodiment makes it less likely for the adsorption component 3 to fall off during bumpy rides, thus maintaining better stability.

[0030] In this embodiment, multiple protruding strips 17 are spaced apart on the outer side wall of the housing 1 to achieve better anti-slip properties and improve grip stability when twisting the hand. Anti-slip washers 5 are fixedly connected to the outer side of the bottom wall of the housing 1. The anti-slip washers 5 are distributed around the outer ring of the mounting base 10 and are in contact with the sealing diaphragm of the adsorption assembly 3. This allows the edges of the sealing diaphragm to be pressed and adsorbed onto the flat surface, while also protecting the sealing diaphragm from wear and damage to the housing 1. In other embodiments, the outer side wall of the housing 1 can be a smooth plane.

[0031] Lens 2 is fixedly connected to one side of fixing plate 4, and a ball-head locking post 41 is formed on the other side of fixing plate 4. The ball-head locking post 41 is adapted to be snapped into and fixed in mounting groove 11. It can be understood that the mounting groove 11 is embedded in the top side of mounting base 10, which can more stably and firmly connect the ball-head locking post 41, avoiding the defects of the buckles in the previous market that are easy to be plasticized and loosened, and extending the product life.

[0032] The adsorption assembly 3 includes a sealing diaphragm 31 and a base plate 32 fixedly connected. The sealing diaphragm 31 can cover the outer side of the bottom wall of the housing 1. The diameter of the sealing diaphragm 31 is greater than or equal to the outer diameter of the anti-slip washer 5, so that the sealing diaphragm 31 can completely cover the anti-slip washer 5. It can be understood that an extension 311 is provided protruding outward at the edge of the sealing diaphragm 31. When the sealing diaphragm 31 covers the housing 1, the extension 311 protrudes outside the housing 1, so that the user can pull it to break the adsorption effect and facilitate rapid desorption.

[0033] The base plate 32 is fixedly connected to the middle of the sealing diaphragm 31, and is rotatably connected to the mounting base 10. A spring 33 connects the base plate 32 and the mounting base 10. It can be understood that when the base plate 32 is connected inside the mounting base 10, the base plate 32 is located inside the anti-slip washer 5. The base plate 32 includes an integrally fixed seat body 321 and a locking block 322. The seat body 321 is axially movable and rotatably connected to the mounting base 10, and a spring 33 connects the seat body 321 and the mounting base 10. The locking block 322 protrudes from the outer side of the seat body 321 corresponding to the mounting opening 23, and can move along the guide slope 13 to engage and fix with the locking groove 14.

[0034] It should be noted that the locking block 322 is provided with a second inclined surface 3221 that slides with the first inclined surface 161. Simultaneously, the maximum axial movement distance of the base 321 within the mounting base 10 is greater than or equal to the height of the stop block 16. This configuration facilitates the fixed installation between the base plate 32 and the mounting base 10. When the base plate 32 needs to be installed within the mounting base 10, the locking block 322 passes through the inlet 15 and is rotated relative to the base plate 32 and the housing 1, allowing the locking block 322 to slide into and connect within the guide slope 13 through the sliding engagement of the second inclined surface 3221 with the first inclined surface 161. When the base plate 32 and the mounting base 10 need to be disassembled, the base plate 32 and the housing 1 are pressed down, causing the base 321 to move axially to its maximum distance within the mounting base 10. The base plate 32 and the housing 1 are then rotated relative to each other, causing the locking block 322 to rotate to a position opposite to the inlet 15. Finally, the base plate 32 and the housing 1 can be pulled apart.

[0035] It should be noted that the spring 33 provides better shock absorption for the mirror structure, ensuring its stability even under prolonged vibration and preventing it from loosening or falling off. Simultaneously, the spring 33 applies pressure between the base plate 32 and the mounting base 10, causing the locking block 322 to be pressed down and engaged within the slot 14 under the elastic force of the spring 33, preventing them from disengaging. This further increases the overall structural stability and extends the lifespan of the structure.

[0036] The method and principle of using the mirror structure provided in this embodiment are as follows: First, place the sealing diaphragm 31 on a smooth surface. Then, rotate and press down the housing 1, causing the locking block 322 to slide into the top slot 14 along the guide slope 13. At this time, the base plate 32 moves axially within the mounting base 10, pulling the sealing diaphragm 31 in the middle upward, so that a negative pressure cavity is formed between the sealing diaphragm 31 and the smooth surface, thereby firmly adsorbing the sealing diaphragm 31 onto the smooth surface. If the housing 1 is rotated in the opposite direction, the locking block 322 will rotate and move to the position corresponding to the inlet 15. Then, the housing 1 is released, and the housing 1 and the base plate 32 can be ejected and separated under the elastic force of the spring 33. Finally, the sealing diaphragm 31 and the base plate 32 are lifted from the smooth surface through the extension 311, thus completing the disassembly operation of the mirror structure from the smooth surface. Therefore, the mirror structure provided in this embodiment only requires a small rotation to allow the locking block 322 to move along the guide slope 13 and engage with the locking slot 14 to achieve adsorption. It is easy to operate, smooth to use, and has good shock absorption and a solid connection structure. Even when exposed to vibration and bumps for a long time, it is not easy to loosen or fall off, and it has high stability.

[0037] For clarity, certain features described in individual embodiments of the present invention may be used in combination in a single embodiment. Furthermore, various features of the present invention described in individual embodiments may also be used individually or in any suitable form in sub-combinations.
