[0032] In some embodiments, a bookend generally includes a first bookend body and a second bookend body, and the first bookend body and the second bookend body may have the same structure or different structures.
[0033] The first side support plate 200 of the first bookend body is hinged to the first support plate 100. The first side support plate 200 can rotate to fit against the first support plate 100, and the first side support plate 200 can also rotate to be perpendicular to the first support plate 100. When the first bookend body functions as a bookend, the first side support plate 200 and the first support plate 100 are in a perpendicular state.
[0034] A detachable support frame 300 is provided on the first side support plate 200. One end of the support frame 300 is connected to the first side support plate 200, and the other end of the support frame 300 abuts against the first support plate 100. The support frame 300 makes the first side support plate 200 and the first support plate 100 form a fixed angle, thereby forming a reader for the first bookend body. Books can be placed on the first side support plate 200, so that the first bookend body functions as a reader.
[0035] When the bookend is needed to function as a bookend, the first side support plate 200 of the first bookend body is set perpendicular to the first support plate 100; when the bookend is not needed, the first bookend body is converted into a reader, thus increasing the added value of the bookend.
[0036] Reference Figure 3 In an optional embodiment, the first support plate 100 includes a front support plate 201 and a rear support plate 202, with one end of the front support plate 201 connected to one end of the rear support plate 202.

[0038] In some embodiments, the first support plate 100 includes a front support plate 201 and a rear support plate 202; a book can be placed on the front support plate 201 and abut against the first side support plate 200, at which time the book prevents the first side support plate 200 from rotating, ensuring that the first side support plate 200 remains perpendicular to the first support plate 100.
[0039] In an optional embodiment, a fixing plate 400 is provided at the lower end of the first side support plate 200. The fixing plate 400 can abut against the rear support plate 202. The fixing plate 400 is used to keep the first side support plate 200 perpendicular to the first support plate 100.
[0040] In an optional embodiment, a first magnet 500 is provided on the rear support plate 202, the first magnet 500 being used to magnetically attract the fixing plate 400.
[0041] In an optional embodiment, a buffer pad is provided on the rear support plate 202, the buffer pad being used to abut against the fixing plate 400.
[0042] In some embodiments, in order to ensure that the first side support plate 200 of the first book stand body can remain perpendicular to the first support plate 100, one or more fixing plates 400 are provided at the lower end of the first side support plate 200; when the first side support plate 200 rotates to be perpendicular to the first support plate 100, the fixing plate 400 abuts against the rear support plate 202, so that the first side support plate 200 cannot continue to rotate.
[0043] The fixing plate 400 also serves to support the book. When the first book stand body functions as a reader, the book is placed on the first side support plate 200, and the lower end of the book abuts against the fixing plate 400. The fixing plate 400 prevents the book from detaching from the first side support plate 200, so that the book is fixed on the first side support plate 200.
[0044] When the first and second bookend bodies work together to compress the book, the first side support plate 200 can also maintain a vertical state.
[0045] In order to better keep the first side support plate 200 perpendicular to the first support plate 100, a first magnet 500 is provided on the rear support plate 202. The first magnet 500 can be magnetically attracted to the fixing plate 400. In this way, when there is no book against the first side support plate 200, the first side support plate 200 can also keep perpendicular to the first support plate 100.
[0046] In some embodiments, a buffer pad is provided on the rear support plate 202, and the buffer pad abuts against the fixed plate 400, which effectively protects the rear support plate 202 and reduces the wear of the rear support plate 202.
[0047] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 In an optional embodiment, the support frame 300 includes an upper connecting plate 301 and a lower support member 302. The upper connecting plate 301 is used to connect to the first side support plate 200. The upper connecting plate 301 is hinged to the lower support member 302. The lower support member 302 is used to abut against the front support plate 201 so that the first side support plate 200 and the front support plate 201 maintain a fixed angle.
[0048] In an optional embodiment, a second magnet 303 is provided on the lower support member 302, and the second magnet 303 is used to connect with the front support plate 201.
[0049] The upper connecting plate 301 of the support frame 300 is hinged to the lower support member 302. After the upper connecting plate 301 is connected to the first side support plate 200, the lower support member 302 can rotate to adjust the position of the lower support member 302 abutting against the front support plate 201, thereby adjusting the angle formed between the first side support plate 200 and the front support plate 201.
[0050] In order to make the connection between the lower support 302 and the front support plate 201 more secure, a second magnet 303 is provided on the lower support 302. The second magnet 303 can magnetically attract the front support plate 201, which is conducive to the secure connection between the lower support 302 and the front support plate 201.
[0051] Anti-slip texture is provided on the upper surface of the front support plate 201. The anti-slip texture can increase the friction between the second magnet 303 and the front support plate 201, thereby improving the stability of the support frame 300.
[0052] In an optional embodiment, the upper connecting plate 301 is detachably connected to the first side support plate 200.
[0053] In an optional embodiment, both sides of the first side support plate 200 are provided with insertion slots, and the upper connecting plate 301 is connected to the insertion slots.
[0054] In some embodiments, the upper connecting plate 301 and the first side support plate 200 are detachably connected. When the support frame 300 is not needed, the upper connecting plate 301 can be inserted into the side of the first side support plate 200 away from the book to prevent the support frame 300 from affecting the contact between the first side support plate 200 and the book.
[0055] When the first book stand needs to function as a reader, the upper connecting plate 301 connects to the insertion slot on the side of the first side support plate 200 that abuts against the book, thereby enabling the installation of the support frame 300.
[0056] In an optional embodiment, a limiting protrusion is provided on the first side support plate 200, the upper connecting plate 301 is magnetically attracted to the first side support plate 200, and the upper end of the upper connecting plate 301 abuts against the limiting protrusion.
[0057] A limiting protrusion is provided on the first side support plate 200, which can restrict the upper connecting plate 301 from moving upward. When a magnet is provided on the upper connecting plate 301, the upper connecting plate 301 can be magnetically attracted to the first side support plate 200, thereby realizing the connection between the upper connecting plate 301 and the first side support plate 200. Moreover, the limiting protrusion restricts the upper connecting plate 301 from moving upward, further realizing the fixation of the upper connecting plate 301 and improving the strength of the connection between the support frame 300 and the first side support plate 200.
[0058] The first side support plate 200 of the first bookend body provided by this utility model is hinged to the first support plate 100. When the bookend is not in use, the first side support plate 200 can be supported by the support frame 300, so that the first side support plate 200 and the first support plate 100 form a fixed angle, so that the first bookend body forms a reader, thus increasing the functionality of the bookend; when reading is needed, the bookend can be used as a reader.
