[0003] To improve user convenience, various stands have emerged on the market. These stands support electronic devices, such as placing them on a desktop for video playback or on a car dashboard for navigation, freeing up the user's hands for other operations. However, most existing stands rely on spring extension for height adjustment to accommodate different product sizes. This not only limits the adjustment range but also carries the risk of spring failure after a period of use. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of this, the present invention aims to provide an electronic device bracket that can be adjusted in a wide range of sizes to accommodate electronic devices of different specifications.

[0005] An electronic device bracket includes a first support member and a second support member connected to each other. The first support member is equipped with a first clamping plate, and the second support member is equipped with a second clamping plate. The first clamping plate and the second clamping plate are respectively used to clamp opposite sides of the electronic device. A locking part is rotatably provided on the first support member, and a plurality of locking holes are provided on the second support member. Two adjacent locking holes are connected through an opening. When the locking part is rotated to a first position, it can move between the plurality of locking holes through the opening to adjust the spacing between the second clamping plate and the first clamping plate. When the locking part is rotated to a second position, the locking part is fixed in one of the locking holes, thus fixing the second support member to the first support member.

[0006] Compared with the prior art, the electronic device bracket provided by this utility model can be easily switched to a locked or unlocked state by matching the shape and size of its locking part with the locking hole and opening. In the unlocked state, the locking part can move between the locking holes to adjust the gap width between the two clamps within a wide range, adapting to electronic devices of different heights. Overall, the structure is simple and the operation is convenient. Attached Figure Description

[0029] To facilitate understanding of this utility model, a more comprehensive description will be provided below with reference to the accompanying drawings. One or more embodiments of this utility model are exemplarily shown in the drawings to enable a more accurate and thorough understanding of the disclosed technical solutions. However, it should be understood that this utility model can be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described below.

[0030] This utility model provides an electronic device stand for supporting electronic devices such as mobile phones and tablets, making them more convenient for users. Figure 1-3 The diagram illustrates a specific embodiment of the electronic device bracket (hereinafter referred to as the bracket). The bracket 100 includes a first support member 20 and a second support member 40 connected to each other. The first support member 20 is equipped with a first clamping plate 21, and the second support member 40 is equipped with a second clamping plate 41. The first clamping plate 21 and the second clamping plate 41 are arranged at intervals relative to each other. When using the bracket 100, refer to... Figure 8 and Figure 12 The first clamping plate 21 and the second clamping plate 41 are respectively clamped on opposite sides of the electronic device 300, specifically the upper and lower sides.

[0031] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the first support member 20 further includes a first substrate 23, and the first clamping plate 21 is disposed at the lower edge of the first substrate 23; the second support member 40 further includes a second substrate 43, and the second clamping plate 41 is disposed at the upper edge of the second substrate 43. During assembly, the first substrate 23 and the second substrate 43 are stacked, and the first clamping plate 21 and the second clamping plate 41 are respectively located on the upper and lower sides of the stacked first substrate 23 and second substrate 43. The first substrate 23, the second substrate 43, the first clamping plate 21, and the second clamping plate 41 can be made of materials with a certain degree of hardness, such as metal or plastic, which can provide sufficient support for the electronic device 300.

[0032] A locking part 25 is rotatably connected to the first substrate 23; a plurality of locking holes 45 are disposed on the second substrate 43, the plurality of locking holes 45 being arranged sequentially in the vertical direction, and an opening 47 being formed between two adjacent locking holes 45, so that each locking hole 45 is interconnected. The locking part 25 can be rotated to a first position or a second position: in the first position, the locking part 25 is slidably engaged with the locking hole 45, so that the first support member 20 and the second support member 40 can slide relative to each other, and the bracket 100 is in an unlocked state; in the second position, the locking part 25 is locked in one of the locking holes 45, fixing the first support member 20 and the second support member 40 together, and the bracket 100 is in a locked state.

[0033] In this embodiment, as Figure 4 As shown, the locking part 25 is a narrow strip with a length L1 and a width W1, where L1 > W1; the diameter D0 of the locking hole 45 is slightly larger than the length L1 of the locking part 25, i.e., D0 > L1; the width W2 of the opening 47 is smaller than the length L1 of the locking part 25 and slightly larger than the width W1 of the locking part 25, i.e., L1 > W2 > W1. By matching the shapes and sizes of the locking part 25, the locking hole 45, and the opening 47, rotating the locking part 25 can switch the bracket 100 of this application to a locked state or an unlocked state.

[0034] Specifically, such as Figure 4-5 As shown, the locking part 25 extends laterally in the second position. Since its length L1 is greater than the width W2 of the opening 47 and is approximately equal to the diameter D0 of the locking hole 45, the locking part 25 rotates with the locking hole 45 but cannot move relative to it, thus fixing the first support member 20 and the second support member 40 together. The bracket 100 switches to the locked state. Figure 9-10 As shown, the locking part 25 extends vertically when rotated to the first position. Since its width W1 is smaller than the width W2 of the opening 47, the locking part 25 can slide into any locking hole 45 through the opening 47, and the bracket 100 switches to the unlocked state.

[0035] When the bracket 100 is in the unlocked state, such as Figure 11 As shown, the first support member 20 and the second support member 40 can move relative to each other to adjust the spacing between their first clamping plate 21 and second clamping plate 41, adapting to electronic devices 300 of different specifications. Figure 4 , Figure 8 As shown, when the locking part 25 is located in the upper third locking hole 45, the gap width between the two clamping plates 21, 41 is H1, and the height of the clamped electronic device 300 is small; as Figure 12As shown, when the locking part 25 is located in the seventh locking hole 45 slightly below, the gap width between the two clamping plates 21 and 41 is H2, and the height of the clamped electronic device 300 is large. In this way, by cooperating with different locking holes 45, the gap width between the two clamping plates 21 and 41 can be adjusted within a wide range, resulting in better versatility.

[0036] like Figure 2-3 as well as Figure 7 As shown, the lower edge of the first substrate 23 is integrally bent and extended to form a support plate 27, and the first clamping plate 21 is disposed above the support plate 27. An elastic element 60, such as a coil spring, is preferably provided between the two. When the support 100 is not subjected to external force, such as... Figure 13 As shown, the elastic element 60 extends substantially naturally. When the electronic device 300 is placed on the bracket 100, as... Figure 14 As shown, the elastic element 60 deforms under force, allowing the first clamping plate 21 to move slightly relative to the support plate 27. This allows for fine adjustment of the gap width between the two clamping plates 21 and 41. When the size difference of the electronic device 300 is small, the size difference can be compensated by the deformation of the elastic element 60, without the need to operate the locking part 25.

[0037] Furthermore, the elastic element 60 also provides elastic support for the electronic device 300 by the first clamping plate 21. When the bracket 100 is subjected to external forces during use, such as when the bracket 100 is fixed in a moving vehicle and experiences bumps, the elastic element 60 can effectively buffer the vibrations caused by the bumps, preventing the electronic device 300 from accidentally falling off. Preferably, the inner wall surface of the first clamping plate 21 is provided with a flexible pad 62, which can be made of elastic materials such as silicone, to further provide cushioning for the electronic device 300 and stably fix the electronic device 300 to the bracket 100.

[0038] In one specific embodiment, a first through hole is formed on the first clamping plate 21, and a first pin 212 passes through the first through hole; a second through hole is formed on the support plate 27, and a second pin 272 is provided in the second through hole. The first pin 212 and the second pin 272 are connected; an elastic member 60 is looped around the first pin 212 and the second pin 272, and its two ends abut against the support plate 27 and the first clamping plate 21, respectively. Preferably, there are multiple elastic members 60, the first pin 212, and the second pin 272, which are symmetrically distributed to provide balanced and stable support for the electronic device 300.

[0039] In one embodiment, such as Figure 14As shown, the first pin 212 is inserted into the inner hole of the second pin 272, and the two can be fixed together by tight fitting, welding, bonding, snap-fit ​​connection, etc. When the electronic device 300 is installed on the bracket 100, the first clamping plate 21 is subjected to downward pressure, which drives the first pin 212 and the second pin 272 to move downward relative to the support plate 27, compressing the elastic element 60. When the electronic device 300 is removed, the elastic element 60 returns to its original deformation, pushing the first clamping plate 21 upward to reset.

[0040] In one embodiment, the second pin 272 may be fixed to the support plate 27, and the two may be formed separately and then connected together, or they may be an integral structure. When the first clamping plate 21 is subjected to downward pressure, it causes the first pin 212 to move downward relative to the second pin 272 and the support plate 27, compressing the elastic element 60.

[0041] In the illustrated embodiment, the upper edge of the second substrate 43 is integrally bent and extended to form the second clamping plate 41, and the inner wall surface of the second clamping plate 41 is also provided with a flexible pad 62.

[0042] like Figure 2-3 as well as Figure 6 As shown, first support plates 29 are formed on the left and right sides of the first substrate 23, and second support plates 49 are formed on the left and right sides of the second substrate 43. When the first substrate 23 and the second substrate 43 are stacked, the first support plates 29 and the second support plates 49 are on the same plane, which is slightly higher than the first substrate 23 and the second substrate 43. When the electronic device 300 is placed on the bracket 100, its back surface rests against the first support plates 29 and the second support plates 49, while being spaced apart from the first substrate 23 and the second substrate 43, thus avoiding the locking part 25. Preferably, flexible pads 62 are disposed on the surfaces of the first support plates 29 and the second support plates 49.

[0043] Preferably, the first support member 20 and the second support member 40 also have guiding structures, such as a guide block 232 protruding from the first substrate 23 and a vertical guide groove 432 on the second substrate 43. The guide block 232 is slidably inserted into the guide groove 432 to guide the relative movement of the first support member 20 and the second support member 40. Preferably, there are two guide grooves 432, symmetrically arranged on opposite sides of the locking hole 45. Preferably, multiple guide blocks 232 are inserted into each guide groove 432, and the multiple guide blocks 232 are spaced apart in the vertical direction, so that the relative movement of the first support member 20 and the second support member 40 is more stable.

[0044] When using the bracket 100 of this application, such as Figure 9-10 As shown, the locking part 25 can be rotated to the first position to unlock the bracket 100. At this time, as... Figure 11As shown, the second support member 40 can be moved relative to the first support member 20 to adjust the gap width between the two clamping plates 21, 41. Preferably, the gap width between the two clamping plates 21, 41 is adjusted to be slightly larger than the height of the electronic device 300. During this process, the locking part 25 of the first support member 20 moves between the locking holes 45 of the second support member 40 through the opening 47. For electronic devices 300 of different heights, the locking part 25 eventually stops in different locking holes 45.

[0045] Next, the electronic device 300 is placed between the two clamping plates 21 and 41, and the second support member 40 is pressed down so that the second clamping plate 41 moves toward the first clamping plate 21 to clamp the electronic device 300. During this process, the elastic member 60 is deformed under pressure, thus providing elastic support to the electronic device 300. Finally, as... Figure 12 As shown, the locking part 25 is rotated to the second position to lock the bracket 100, thereby fixing the electronic device 300 onto the bracket 100.

[0046] When it is necessary to remove the electronic device 300, simply rotate the locking part 25 back to the first position to unlock the bracket 100, so that the first support member 20 and the second support member 40 can move relative to each other, and the first clamping plate 21 and the second clamping plate 41 can release the electronic device 300.

[0047] like Figure 3 , Figure 5 as well as Figure 9 As shown, the first support member 20 further includes an operating part 26. The operating part 26 and the locking part 25 are respectively disposed on opposite sides of the first base plate 23, and the two can be fixedly connected together by screws or the like for synchronous rotation. Preferably, the outer edge of the operating part 26 protrudes to form an ear 261 for user operation. The extending direction of the ear 261 is preferably consistent with the length direction of the locking part 25. The orientation of the locking part 25 can be determined by observing the orientation of the ear 261, further facilitating user operation. The operating part 26 and / or the locking part 25 preferably engage with the first base plate 23 through friction, and can automatically remain in that position after the user rotates the operating part 26 to a predetermined position.

[0048] In the bracket 100 of this application, the locking part 25 of the first support member 20 has different dimensions in different directions. By cooperating with the dimensions of the locking hole 45 and the opening 47 of the second support member 40, the locking part 25 can be locked in one of the locking holes 45 or move between the locking holes 45 when rotated to different positions, switching the bracket 100 to a locked state or an unlocked state. In the unlocked state, the locking part 25 can move between the locking holes 45 to adjust the spacing between the two clamps 21, 41 of the bracket 100 to adapt to electronic devices 300 of different heights; in the locked state, the two clamps 21, 41 can clamp the electronic device 300. Overall, the structure is simple, easy to operate, and has good versatility.

[0049] In the illustrated embodiment, the plurality of locking holes 45 are close to each other and tangent to each other. The second substrate 43 further hollows out at the tangent positions of the locking holes 45 to form the opening 47. In other embodiments, the plurality of locking holes 45 may intersect each other, and the second substrate 43 forms the opening 47 at the intersection positions of the locking holes 45; or, the plurality of locking holes 45 may be spaced apart by a small distance, and the second substrate 43 further hollows out at the intervals between the locking holes 45 to form the opening 47. In general, as long as the opening 47 can connect the locking holes 45 and prevent the locking part 25 from passing through in the locked state but can pass through in the unlocked state, it is acceptable.

[0050] In the illustrated embodiment, the locking part 25 is a narrow strip with different dimensions in length and width. The size of the opening 47 is between the length and width of the locking part 25. Thus, the bracket 100 can be locked or unlocked by rotating the locking part 25. It should be understood that the locking part 25 is not limited to the strip shape shown in the illustration; it can also be spindle-shaped, irregularly shaped, etc. As long as it has different dimensions in different directions, preferably in two perpendicular directions, its direction can be adjusted by rotation, allowing it to move through the opening 47 between the locking holes 45 or be locked in a certain locking hole 45, thereby locking or unlocking the bracket 100.

[0051] like Figure 15-16 As shown, in one embodiment, the bracket 100 may further include a support rod 80, with ball holes 82 formed at both ends of the support rod 80. The ball holes 82 cooperate with ball heads 84 to form a universal ball joint. In the figure, a connecting plate 86 is disposed on the outer end of one ball head 84, and the connecting plate 86 is fixedly connected to the first base plate 23 of the first support member 20 of the bracket 100 by screws or the like; a fixing plate 88 is disposed on the outer end of the other ball head 84, and the fixing plate 88 can be placed or connected to a support, such as a table or dashboard. The universal ball joint design allows the angle of the bracket 100 to be adjusted freely, further facilitating user operation.

[0052] It should be noted that the above embodiments only illustrate preferred embodiments of the present invention, and their descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, but they should not be construed as limiting the present invention. It should be pointed out that those skilled in the art can make several modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of the present invention, such as combining different features in various embodiments, and these should all fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
