Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of mechanical engineering technology, specifically relating to a networked vehicle terminal with an adjustable mounting bracket. Background Technology

[0002] As a crucial component of vehicle intelligence, connected vehicle terminals are widely used in navigation, communication, and vehicle monitoring. With increasing user demands for improved driving experience and human-machine interaction, the ease of installation and comfort of use of these terminals are receiving greater attention. In practical applications, different vehicle models and drivers have varying requirements for installation location and display angle, thus placing higher demands on the mounting brackets for vehicle terminals. Traditional mounting brackets have relatively simple structures and typically lack effective adjustment and locking mechanisms, making it difficult to meet the stability requirements for multi-angle adaptation and long-term use.

[0003] In the existing technology, traditional vehicle terminal mounting brackets mostly adopt a fixed or limited adjustment range structure, with relatively simple functions. Due to the large differences in driver height, it is inconvenient when it is necessary to adjust the device angle according to individual perspective. In addition, during vehicle operation, the connection stability between the bracket and the terminal is easily affected by vibration, which may cause the device angle to shift, affecting the stability of use. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a networked vehicle terminal with an adjustable mounting bracket, which aims to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0011] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the inner surface of the slot is fitted with the outer surface of the positioning pin to achieve insertion positioning, and the outer surface of the fixing block is in contact with the inner surface of the internal thread block.

[0012] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the spring and the limiting block are arranged in a ring array on the inner circumferential surface of the fixed ring, and one end of the limiting block is elastically pressed against the outer circumferential surface of the limiting wheel by the spring.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the outer circumferential surface of the limiting wheel is provided with a plurality of grooves evenly distributed along the circumference, and the limiting block is engaged in one of the grooves under the action of the spring to achieve the angular positioning of the rotating component.

[0014] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the turntable slides in contact with the surface of the fixing ring, and the end of the adjusting frame is used to fix the vehicle-mounted terminal equipment.

[0015] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, one end of the threaded rod passes through the internal threaded block and is fixedly connected to the knob, while the other end abuts against the outer surface of the turntable.

Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

The phrase "in one embodiment" appearing in different places in this specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a single or selective embodiment that excludes other embodiments.

[0026] Example

[0027] Reference Figures 1-4 This is an embodiment of the present invention, which provides a networked vehicle terminal with an adjustable mounting bracket, including,

[0028] The support mechanism 100 includes a fixed plate 101, a slot 102 formed on the outer surface of the fixed plate 101, and a fixing block 103 fixedly installed on the outer surface of the fixed plate 101.

[0029] The adjustment mechanism 200 includes a fixed ring 201 fixedly installed on the outer surface of the fixed plate 101, a spring 202 fixedly installed on the inner surface of the fixed ring 201, a limiting block 203 fixedly connected to the other end of the spring 202, a rotating component 204 for adjusting the angle, and a locking component 205 that works in conjunction with the rotating component 204 and limits its movement.

[0030] The rotating assembly 204 includes a positioning pin 204a that is inserted into the slot 102, a limiting wheel 204b that is fixedly connected to one end of the positioning pin 204a, a turntable 204c that is coaxially fixed with the limiting wheel 204b, and an adjustment bracket 204d that is hinged to the outside of the turntable 204c.

[0031] When the angle needs to be adjusted, the user can manually rotate the turntable 204c. During the rotation of the turntable 204c, it will drive the limit wheel 204b, which is fixed to the same axis, and the positioning pin 204a, which is fixedly connected to one end of the limit wheel, to rotate synchronously. During this process, the outer circumferential surface of the limit wheel 204b maintains elastic contact with the limit block 203. Due to the force of the spring 202, the limit block 203 can apply appropriate resistance to the limit wheel 204b, thereby achieving a certain limiting effect on the limit wheel 204b.

[0032] Specifically, the locking assembly 205 includes an internally threaded block 205a that fits against the outer surface of the turntable 204c, a threaded rod 205b that is threadedly connected to the internally threaded block 205a, and a knob 205c that is fixedly installed on the end of the threaded rod 205b away from the internally threaded block.

[0033] Furthermore, the inner surface of the slot 102 fits against the outer surface of the positioning pin 204a to achieve insertion positioning, and the outer surface of the fixing block 103 contacts the inner surface of the internal thread block 205a.

[0034] Furthermore, the spring 202 and the limiting block 203 are arranged in a ring array on the inner circumferential surface of the fixed ring 201, and one end of the limiting block 203 is elastically pressed against the outer circumferential surface of the limiting wheel 204b by the spring 202.

[0035] The spring 202 and the limiting block 203 are arranged in a ring array on the inner circumferential surface of the fixed ring 201, so that the multiple limiting blocks 203 can be evenly distributed along the circumference and act synchronously on the outer circumferential surface of the limiting wheel 204b. This ensures that the rotating component 204 is subjected to uniform force during rotation. The spring 202 pushes the limiting block 203 to press against the elastic contact structure on the limiting wheel 204b, thus realizing the elastic positioning function of the rotation angle.

[0036] Furthermore, the outer circumferential surface of the limiting wheel 204b is provided with multiple grooves evenly distributed along the circumference. The limiting block 203 is engaged in one of the grooves under the action of the spring, thereby achieving the angular positioning of the rotating component 204.

[0037] Preferably, the turntable 204c slides in contact with the surface of the fixing ring 201, and the end of the adjusting bracket 204d is used to fix the vehicle-mounted terminal equipment.

[0038] It should be noted that one end of the threaded rod 205b passes through the internal threaded block 205a and is fixedly connected to the knob 205c, while the other end abuts against the outer surface of the turntable 204c. By rotating the knob 205c, the threaded rod 205b is driven to move axially, applying pressure to or releasing pressure on the turntable 204c, thereby locking and unlocking the rotating assembly 204.

[0039] In use, the user first installs the support mechanism 100 in a suitable position inside the vehicle, such as the dashboard or windshield bracket, via the fixing plate 101. The support mechanism 100 includes a slot 102 formed on the outer surface of the fixing plate 101 and a fixing block 103 fixedly installed on the outer surface of the fixing plate 101, providing basic support and positioning for subsequent structures. Subsequently, the adjustment mechanism 200 is fixedly installed on the outside of the fixing plate 101 via the fixing ring 201. The spring 202 and the limiting block 203 are distributed in a circular array on the inner circumferential surface of the fixing ring 201, so that multiple limiting blocks 203 can be evenly distributed circumferentially and act synchronously on the outer circumferential surface of the limiting wheel 204b, ensuring that the rotating component 204 rotates... During the process, the force is uniform, and the spring 202 pushes the limit block 203 to press against the elastic contact structure on the limit wheel 204b, realizing the elastic positioning function of the rotation angle. The rotating component 204 includes a positioning pin 204a that is inserted into the slot 102, a limit wheel 204b fixedly connected to one end of the positioning pin 204a, a turntable 204c fixed coaxially with the limit wheel 204b, and an adjustment bracket 204d hinged to the outside of the turntable 204c. When the angle needs to be adjusted, the user can manually rotate the turntable 204c. During the rotation of the turntable 204c, it will drive the limit wheel 204b fixed coaxially with it and the positioning pin 204a fixedly connected to one end of the limit wheel to rotate synchronously. During this process, the outer peripheral surface of the limiting wheel 204b maintains elastic contact with the limiting block 203. Due to the force of the spring 202, the limiting block 203 can apply appropriate resistance to the limiting wheel 204b, thereby achieving a certain limiting effect on the limiting wheel 204b. The outer peripheral surface of the limiting wheel 204b is provided with multiple grooves evenly distributed circumferentially. Under the action of the spring 202, the limiting block 203 is inserted into one of the grooves to achieve angular positioning of the rotating component 204. The locking component 205 is used to lock the rotating component 204 to prevent it from shifting due to vibration during operation. The locking component 205 includes an internally threaded block 205a that fits against the outer surface of the turntable 204c, and a screw threaded into the internally threaded block 205a. The rotating assembly 204 consists of a threaded rod 205b and a knob 205c fixedly mounted on the end of the threaded rod 205b away from the internal threaded block. The inner surface of the slot 102 fits against the outer surface of the positioning pin 204a to achieve insertion positioning, while the outer surface of the fixing block 103 slides against the inner surface of the internal threaded block 205a to provide guidance and ensure stable movement and disassembly of the locking assembly. By rotating the knob 205c, the user moves the threaded rod 205b axially, causing it to abut against the outer surface of the turntable 204c and apply pressure to it, thereby locking the rotating assembly 204. Reverse rotation of the knob 205c releases the pressure, allowing the rotating assembly 204 to return to its free state for easy angle adjustment.

[0040] In summary, by setting the adjustable rotating component 204, users can flexibly adjust the device angle according to their own viewing needs, which improves the angle adaptability and adjustment convenience of the vehicle terminal mounting bracket. Furthermore, the locking component 205 enables quick fixation, thereby improving the stability of the vehicle terminal in different vehicle models and usage environments.
