Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of smart home technology, and more specifically, to an external device mounting device, an external device component, and a screen light. Background Technology

[0002] Currently available screen mounting devices generally include external devices (such as lights and cameras) and a base. The base can be fixed to the monitor screen, while also supporting and fixing the external devices, and providing power and signal transmission for the external devices.

[0003] However, most existing screen mounting devices on the market currently use a base that is fixed to the monitor by a front baffle that clips onto the top edge of the monitor, and a counterweight and hinge structure at the rear of the monitor to hold the base in place. This solution has many problems and user pain points, such as:

[0004] A larger counterweight is needed; if the counterweight is too light, the lamp body may tilt forward.

[0005] The torque of the hinge is not high enough, and the base cannot be stably fixed to the monitor.

[0006] The opening and closing angles of the base and pivot vary in terms of the reliability of fixing monitors with different thicknesses and curved surfaces;

[0007] For monitors with rounded surfaces and large curvature on the back, the contact area between the back of the base and the back surface of the screen is small, resulting in poor stability. Utility Model Content

[0070] Example

[0071] like Figures 1-6 As shown, the first aspect of this application provides an external device fixing device for supporting an external device 20 and enabling it to be installed on a mounting body 40. The fixing device includes:

[0072] The support body 10 includes a first support segment 101 and a second support segment 102 connected to each other. One end of the first support segment 101 extending away from the second support segment 102 is used to set the first support segment 101 on the object to be installed. The end of the second support segment 102 extending away from the first support segment is used to set the external device 20.

[0073] The first support segment 101 is at least partially bendable, and the second support segment 102 is at least partially inflexible.

[0074] The ratio of the bendable length of the first support segment 101 to the non-bendable length of the second support segment 102 is designed to satisfy the following: when the external force applied to the bendable segment is removed, the bendable segment can maintain its current bending shape.

[0075] and / or

[0076] The bending modulus and / or bending strength of the first support segment 101 are designed to satisfy the following: when the external force applied to the bending segment is removed, the bending segment can maintain its current bending shape.

[0077] In this embodiment, the length and / or material of the bendable segment are designed so that the bendable segment can be bent under external force and maintain its current bent shape after bending. With this design, the fixing device in this embodiment does not need an additional counterweight structure to balance the weight of the external device. Instead, the external device can be stably fixed to the object to be installed by the ability of the bendable segment to maintain its bent shape.

[0078] Specifically, in this embodiment, at least a portion of the first support segment 101 in the fixing device is designed as a flexible structure. The first support segment 101 can be bent under external force and maintain its current shape after bending. This design allows the fixing device to better adapt to the mounting body 40 of different shapes and sizes, such as curved displays, displays of different thicknesses, or surfaces with arcs. By manually adjusting the bending angle and shape of the first support segment 101, it can be ensured that the fixing device fits tightly with the mounting body 40, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the installation. This flexibility not only improves the convenience of installation but also expands the applicability of the fixing device, enabling it to be applied to more types of external devices 20 and mounting bodies 40.

[0079] Taking the lamp body as an external device and the monitor as the installation body 40 as an example, by manually bending the first support section 101 of the fixing device and keeping it in the bent shape, the lamp body on the second support section 102 can be effectively supported.

[0080] Specifically, when the bending position of the first support section 101 is near the upper part, this bending method can change the lighting direction of the lamp body on the second support section 102. At the same time, this bending method can also make the fixing device with the lamp body adaptable to different display screen thicknesses.

[0081] More specifically, when the bending position of the first support segment 101 is near the middle, this bending method allows the fixing device to adapt to screens with different back shapes, such as screens with a bulge on the back.

[0082] More specifically, when the bending position of the first support segment 101 is near the lower part, this bending method allows the lower end of the first support segment 101 / the part connected to the display screen to be bent laterally, thereby enabling the fixing device to adapt to the special screen design of curved screen.

[0083] Furthermore, in some possible embodiments, the ratio of the bendable length of the first support segment 101 to the non-bendable length of the second support segment 102 is between 1 and 4. Preferably, the ratio of the bendable length of the first support segment 101 to the non-bendable length of the second support segment 102 is between 1 and 2. More preferably, the bendable length of the first support segment 101 is 80 mm and the non-bendable length of the second support segment 102 is 40 mm.

[0084] and / or

[0085] The bending modulus of the first support section 101 is designed to be between 69 GPa and 70 GPa.

[0086] and / or

[0087] The bending strength of the first support section 101 is designed to be between 70MPa and 110MPa, preferably 80MPa.

[0088] It's important to note that a material's flexural strength characterizes how strong it is, that is, how much load it can withstand before failing or beginning permanent deformation. A material's flexural modulus, on the other hand, characterizes how stiff it is, that is, how easily it undergoes elastic deformation when bent. A higher flexural modulus indicates lower flexibility and greater difficulty in bending; simply put, it means the material deforms very little under a large force.

[0089] Specifically, the bendable section of the first support segment 101 primarily provides both flexible bending and rigidity maintenance. During installation, the user can bend the first support segment 101 using external force according to the shape and size of the object to be installed 40, allowing it to fit tightly against the surface of the object. Once the external force is removed, the first support segment 101 can maintain its current bent shape due to its own rigidity, thus ensuring a stable connection between the fixing device and the object to be installed. This design avoids the problem of needing a large counterweight to maintain stability in traditional fixing methods, allowing the external device 20 to be stably fixed to the object to be installed without relying on counterweights. The non-bendable section of the second support segment 102 primarily provides rigid support. It provides a stable support platform for the external device 20, ensuring that the external device will not shift or shake due to deformation of the support body during use. This rigid support structure can withstand the weight of the external device and various forces generated during use, ensuring the stability and reliability of the external device.

[0090] The combination of the bendable section 101 and the non-bendable section 102 of the first support section allows the external equipment to be stably fixed on the object to be installed without the need for counterweights.

[0091] Furthermore, the ratio of the bendable length of the first support segment 101 to the non-bendable length of the second support segment 102 is between 1 and 4. This length ratio design ensures that the first support segment 101 has sufficient length to adapt to objects of different shapes and sizes, while guaranteeing that the second support segment 102 can provide sufficient rigid support. Specifically, the longer first support segment 101 can better conform to the surface of the object to be installed, especially when the object has a complex shape (such as a curved surface or a large-curvature back), providing a better fit. The moderate length of the second support segment 102 ensures stable support for the external device 20, preventing instability caused by an excessively short support segment.

[0092] Furthermore, the bending modulus of the first support segment 101 is designed to be between 69 GPa and 70 GPa, and the bending strength is designed to be between 70 MPa and 110 MPa. These parameters ensure that the first support segment 101 possesses sufficient flexibility to adapt to different shapes of the object to be installed, while also having sufficient rigidity to maintain its bent shape. Specifically, the higher bending modulus allows the first support segment 101 to maintain its shape after bending and will not easily deform due to its own elastic recovery force. The moderate bending strength ensures that the first support segment 101 will not undergo irreversible deformation or damage due to external forces during use. This design makes the fixing device both flexible and stable during installation and use, adaptable to various complex operating environments and the needs of external equipment.

[0093] In other words, the first support segment 101 of the flexible structure in this embodiment has its own rigidity to overcome the weight of the external device and maintain the position of the external device. Specifically, when the external device is a lamp body, the first support segment 101 of the flexible structure has its own rigidity to overcome the weight of the lamp body and maintain the position of the lamp body.

[0094] It should be noted that the fixing device with the flexible first support section 101 reduces the overall weight. Compared with the existing screen lamp base, which requires additional counterweight to maintain stability, the fixing device in this embodiment does not need to set additional counterweight to ensure the stability of the external device 20. Taking the external device 20 as the lamp body as an example, the fixing device in this embodiment does not need to set additional counterweight to ensure the stability of the lamp body.

[0095] It should also be noted that in this embodiment, the second support section 102 in the fixing device is set as a rigid structure that cannot be bent. On the one hand, the rigid structure of the second support section 102 is convenient to be fixed with external devices 20, such as lamp bodies and cameras. On the other hand, the rigid structure of the second support section 102 itself can be composed of multiple components. In this way, when electronic components are installed inside the second support section 102, it is also convenient to disassemble and repair the electronic components inside the second support section 102. The structural composition of the second support section 102 will be described in detail below.

[0096] To better understand the structural composition of the fixing device in the embodiments of this application, the first support section 101 and the second support section 102 in the fixing device will be described in detail below in sequence.

[0097] Furthermore, in some possible implementations, at least a portion of the non-bendable section of the first support segment 101 is located at the connection end where the first support segment 101 connects to the second support segment.

[0098] and / or

[0099] At least a portion of the bendable section of the second support section 102 is located at the connection end where the second support section 102 connects to the first support section.

[0100] Of course, in some possible implementations, the second support segment 102 may be designed as a non-bendable segment; and / or the first support segment 101 may be designed as a bendable segment.

[0101] Regardless of which part of the first support segment 101 and the second support segment 102 is a bendable segment, this bendable segment design can achieve bending in at least the forward and backward, and left and right directions.

[0102] Specifically, in this embodiment, the first support segment 101 is constructed of a flexible metal body 101a.

[0103] For example, the flexible metal body 101a can be flexible aluminum, copper, or a metal or alloy with similar rigidity and toughness.

[0104] Of course, in some possible implementations, the flexible metal body 101a can also be designed as an alloy metal body that is both flexible and magnetic. For example, the flexible metal body 101a can be set as a deformable hard magnetic alloy, such as Fe-Co-V alloy, Pt-Co alloy, and Fe-Cr-Co alloy. Among them, Pt-Co alloy has excellent plasticity, can be made into components of various sizes and shapes, and has high density and strong corrosion resistance, but it is expensive. As another example, the flexible metal body 101a can be set as a flexible magnetic electrical functional material, such as a composite material based on liquid gallium indium tin alloy and polydimethylsiloxane PDMS elastomer. By utilizing the excellent conductivity and fluidity of liquid metal at room temperature and the good deformation capability of PDMS, an LM-PDMS elastic conductive substrate material that can maintain a basically unchanged conductivity even when the tensile deformation reaches 100% is obtained. In this way, when the first support section 101 of the fixing device is magnetically adsorbed to the body 40 to be installed, these types of flexible metals can provide magnetism themselves, thereby facilitating the fixing device to be installed.

[0105] For example, when the flexible metal body 101a in the fixing device is made of the aforementioned magnetic flexible metal, the first support section 101 can be fixedly engaged with the back of the computer display screen by means of its own magnetic properties.

[0106] Furthermore, in some possible implementations, the first support segment 101 is provided with a flexible sleeve 101b over the flexible metal body 101a.

[0107] Preferably, the flexible sleeve 101b can be made of a bend-resistant material such as silicone, rubber, PP, or TPU. In this embodiment, by covering the flexible metal body 101a with the flexible sleeve 101b, the flexible sleeve 101b can protect the internal flexible metal body 101a. On the other hand, it can make the surface of the first support segment 101 have a softer texture, preventing the first support segment 101 from scratching the object to be installed 40 due to its sharp metal edges, such as scratching the display. Furthermore, the flexible protective sleeve can be made with molds to achieve various appearance and texture effects, while the metal sleeve can only be made in the post-processing stage. Moreover, when the fixing device is installed on the object to be installed 40 with a relatively smooth surface, such as a calculator or display, the middle part of the first support segment 101, which is a bendable part in the fixing device, will contact the back surface of the display screen. The flexible sleeve 101b, as the covering layer, can provide greater friction, thereby achieving an anti-slip effect.

[0108] Preferably, the flexible sleeve 101b can cover the flexible metal body 101a by liquid silicone integral injection, adhesive bonding, or interference fit. In this embodiment, the specific covering method of the flexible sleeve 101b is not limited.

[0109] Furthermore, in some possible embodiments, the lower part of the first support section 101 is provided with a connecting part, which is used to connect the first support section 101 to the body to be installed.

[0110] The connecting part is configured as a flexible structural layer, which is an adhesive layer, a magnetic layer or a suction cup.

[0111] In this embodiment of the application, by providing a connecting part 30 on the mating surface 1011 of the first support section 101, it is easy to fix the fixing device on the body 40 to be installed.

[0112] Preferably, the connecting part 30 may be a hook and loop fastener and hook and loop fastener or magnetic component and magnetic fastener, or suction cup, or adhesive backing, etc., provided on the flexible sleeve 101b.

[0113] Taking the connecting part 30 as a Velcro as an example, when the fixing device is installed on the back of the monitor screen, which is the object to be installed, through the first support section 101 and the lamp body, which is the external device 20, is installed through the second support section 102, the adhesive force of the Velcro on the mating surface 1011 of the first support section balances the weight of the lamp body. The position of the lamp body is maintained by the inherent rigidity of the flexible metal body 101a. The fixing device achieves better fit with the back of the monitor by bending the first support section 101.

[0114] Furthermore, in some possible implementations, the connecting portion 30 is positioned closer to the bottom end of the first support segment than to the top end of the first support segment.

[0115] In this embodiment, by setting the connecting part 30 near the bottom of the first support segment 101, when the first support segment 101 is installed on the back of the display screen through the connecting part 30, the fixed first support segment 101 still has a sufficiently long distance to realize different bending operations of the first support segment 101.

[0116] Furthermore, in some possible embodiments, the end of the second support segment 102 connected to the first support segment 101 is provided with a main body connection portion 1021 that is plugged into and cooperates with the first support segment 101, and the end away from the first support segment 101 is provided with a device mounting portion for setting external devices.

[0117] For example, the lamp body, which serves as the external device 20, can be mounted on the device mounting portion 1022 at the top of the second support section 102. It should be noted that the external device 20 and the device mounting portion 1022 of the second support section 102 can be detachably connected by electromagnetic means. Of course, the two can also be connected together by a fixed connection or a pivot connection.

[0118] Furthermore, in some possible embodiments, the device mounting part 1022 includes an arc-shaped mounting port 10221 adapted to the outer arc surface of the cylindrical external device, and the arc-shaped mounting port 10221 is provided with an electrical connection port for electrical connection with the external device 20, or the external device 20 is hinged or pivotally connected to the device mounting part 1022.

[0119] That is, when the external device 20 is cylindrical, the arc-shaped mounting port 10221 provided on the second support section 102 allows the second support section 102 to fit tightly with the cylindrical external device 20, thereby improving the stability after installation. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a cylindrical lamp body serving as an external device 20 can be installed at the arc-shaped mounting port 10221 position of the second support section 102.

[0120] Furthermore, in some possible embodiments, the main body connecting portion 1021 of the second support segment 102 has a socket formed near the top of the first support segment, and a plug adapted to the socket is formed at the top of the first support segment.

[0122] The main body connecting part 1021 of the second support section 102 has a plug formed near the top of the first support section, and the top of the first support section has a socket adapted to the plug.

[0123] The first support section 101 and the second support section 102 are connected by a plug and a socket.

[0124] In this embodiment of the application, a plug-in mating structure is formed between the first support segment 101 and the second support segment 102, thereby achieving the connection effect between the first support segment 101 and the second support segment 102.

[0125] Furthermore, in some possible embodiments, the second support section 102 includes a cover 102a and a seat 102b that are mated together. The portion of the cover 102a near the top of the first support section 101 is used to cooperate with the seat 102b to form an electronic mounting cavity for mounting electronic components.

[0126] Specifically, the cover 102a and the base 102b are fixed together by a locking member, preferably a screw 102d. One end of the flexible metal body 101a and the flexible sleeve 101b is fixed and clamped between the base 102a and the cover 102b. A shielding member is provided on the side of the base 102b away from the cover 102a to shield the screw 102d, preferably a decorative piece 102c.

[0127] The inflexible second support section 102 contains circuit boards and other electronic components, which can power external devices such as lights and cameras, or install other sensing devices.

[0128] Furthermore, in some embodiments not shown, the second support section 102 is also provided with an abutment portion;

[0129] When the first support section 101 of the fixing device is fixed to the first mounting surface of the object to be installed in a bent state, the abutment provided on the second support section 102 can abut against the second mounting surface of the object to be installed opposite to the first mounting surface.

[0130] In this embodiment, by providing an abutment, when the fixing device is supported and hung on, for example, a computer display screen or other mounting body 40, the abutment can abut against the top edge of the display screen, thereby improving the stability of the fixing device after it is fixed.

[0131] Furthermore, the second aspect of this application also provides an external device assembly, which includes an external device 20 and a fixing device provided in the first aspect of this application, wherein the external device 20 can be detachably mounted on a non-bendable second support section 102 in the fixing device.

[0132] Furthermore, in some possible implementations, the external device 20 includes a light-emitting device capable of emitting a light source;

[0133] and / or

[0134] External device 20 includes an image acquisition device capable of capturing images;

[0135] and / or

[0136] External device 20 includes an audio acquisition device capable of acquiring audio signals.

[0137] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 6 Taking the external device 20 as the lamp body and the device to be installed 40 as the monitor screen as an example, Figure 6 This diagram illustrates the bending of the flexible metal body 101a and the flexible silicone sleeve to fit different curved surfaces on the back of the monitor. Users can adjust the lamp's position and illumination angle by bending the top of the flexible metal body 101a, and can also bend it to better fit the monitor's back surface, ensuring reliable fixation. This solves the problem of unstable fixation in existing lamp holders due to insufficient contact area between the fixture and the monitor's back surface caused by excessively thick or thin monitors or large curvatures. Furthermore, the flexible metal body 101a can be flattened for packaging, significantly reducing packaging volume and addressing the issue of bulky "7"-shaped lamp holders currently on the market.

[0138] Furthermore, a third aspect of the present application also provides a screen hanging light, which includes a lamp body and a fixing device provided in the first aspect of the present application, wherein the lamp body can be detachably mounted on the second support section 102 of the fixing device.

[0139] Furthermore, in some possible implementations, the lamp body is designed as a column shape.

[0140] It should be noted that the specific connection method between the lamp body and the fixing device can be referred to the description in the first and second aspects of the embodiments of this application, and will not be repeated here.
