[0086] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, and not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without creative effort are within the protection scope of this application.
[0087] According to the first aspect of this application, referring to Figures 1 to 12 This disclosure provides a bracket for use in a vehicle. Exemplarily, the bracket is mounted on the front seat of a vehicle to secure a terminal device 10 (e.g., an electronic device) behind the front seat, facilitating viewing or operation by rear passengers. By placing the bracket in the seat back area, stable device support can be provided for the rear passengers without affecting their space, thereby improving the human-machine interaction experience and passenger convenience of the in-vehicle system.
[0088] It is understood that in some embodiments, the bracket can be installed inside the vehicle, and the specific installation location can be set according to application requirements, and is not limited to the location in this embodiment.
[0089] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2The bracket body 100 includes a first part 150 and a second part 160. The first part 150 is used to mount the terminal device 10 and extends along a first direction; the second part 160 is fixedly connected to the first part 150 and extends along a second direction intersecting the first direction. This structural design allows the bracket to form a certain angle of transition, thus adapting to specific installation locations within the vehicle, such as seat backs, center armrests, or the center console area, improving overall installation adaptability.
[0090] The angle between the first direction and the second direction can be set according to the actual usage scenario. For example, if the bracket is to be installed on the seat back, the angle can be set to an obtuse angle of less than 90 degrees, so that the terminal device 10 faces the rear passengers for easy viewing or operation; if it is to be installed on the center console, the angle can be adjusted so that the terminal device 10 faces the driver or front passenger, improving visibility and ease of operation.
[0091] Since the first part 150 and the second part 160 are fixedly connected, the overall structure of the bracket body 100 is stable, which helps to reduce the shaking of the terminal device 10 caused by vehicle vibration or personnel operation during use, thereby improving the reliability of the terminal device 10. In some embodiments, the fixed connection can be achieved by integral molding or other methods, and the selection of the connection method can be flexibly determined according to the specific materials and processing technology.
[0092] In addition, the bracket body 100 is fixedly connected by the first part 150 and the second part 160, making the overall structure of the terminal device 10 and the bracket more compact. This helps to reduce the space occupied by the bracket body 100 inside the vehicle. Especially when the bracket body 100 is installed in the seat back area, the compact design can avoid significant compression of the rear passenger space to a certain extent, thereby improving passenger comfort and the utilization efficiency of the vehicle space.
[0093] It should be understood that in this application, the terms "first direction" and "second direction" are relative expressions and are not limited to a specific coordinate system or direction definition. Their directional relationship can be set according to the actual installation angle, vehicle structure and ergonomic layout.
[0094] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 3 The angle between the first direction and the second direction is less than 180 degrees. By forming a non-collinear connection structure between the first part 150 and the second part 160, the terminal device 10 can be tilted at a certain angle toward the preset observation direction after installation, thereby improving the user's viewing angle and operational convenience.
[0095] For example, when the bracket body 100 is used to install on the seat back, the first part 150 faces the rear passenger. If the included angle is an obtuse angle structure of less than 180 degrees, the terminal device 10 installed on the first part 150 can face the passenger in an upward or forward tilting manner, thereby improving the field of view and reading experience.
[0096] It should be understood that the setting of "angle less than 180 degrees" is not limited to a specific value and can be flexibly set according to different installation scenarios, such as approximately 135 degrees, 120 degrees, 96 degrees, or 73 degrees. The selection of the angle value can be comprehensively considered in combination with factors such as vehicle structure layout, seat angle, and user habits to achieve better ergonomics.
[0097] The design of this angled structure helps to optimize the installation posture of the equipment and also facilitates the compact layout of the overall bracket structure, reducing the encroachment on the interior space to a certain extent, thereby improving ride comfort and ease of use.
[0098] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 The first part 150 and the second part 160 are integrally formed. Specifically, the bracket body 100 forms structural continuity between the first part 150 and the second part 160 through integral molding or non-removable connection, so that it has good rigidity and structural stability during use.
[0099] Since the first part 150 and the second part 160 are an integrated structure, compared with a separate assembly structure, the use of connectors 300 can be reduced, lowering the possibility of structural loosening, thereby improving the overall strength and service life of the bracket body 100 to a certain extent. At the same time, this integrated structure helps control the number of parts and assembly complexity, making the manufacturing and assembly process simpler and contributing to improved product consistency and reliability.
[0100] In addition, the one-piece molding structure facilitates a compact design of structural dimensions, which helps reduce the space occupied by the bracket in the vehicle's interior. Especially when the bracket is installed in areas such as seat backs, it can improve the utilization efficiency of the passenger space to a certain extent, thereby improving the user experience of rear passengers.
[0101] It should be understood that in this embodiment, "integrated configuration" is not limited to a specific manufacturing process. It can be formed in one step by injection molding, die casting, or other methods, or it can be formed into a non-detachable connection by bonding, welding, or other methods. This application does not limit it in this regard.
[0102] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2The first part 150 includes a proximal end 151 and a distal end 152. The proximal end 151 is connected to the second part 160. The width of the first part 150 near the proximal end 151 is greater than the width near the distal end 152. The first part 150 has a wider width near the proximal end 151 than near the distal end 152, and thus presents an overall structure that is narrower at the top and wider at the bottom.
[0103] This geometric design allows for several advantages. First, the wider proximal end 151, when connected to the second part 160, can increase the contact area of the connection region, making the structural connection more stable and enhancing the overall mechanical stability of the bracket. Second, the gradually narrowing contour change towards the distal end 152 helps guide users to quickly identify the installation direction of the equipment, improving the intuitiveness and convenience of operation.
[0104] In addition, this top-narrow-bottom-wide structural feature provides a certain sense of stability visually, giving users a strong sense of visual and psychological security during vehicle vibration or driving, thereby optimizing the riding experience.
[0105] It should be understood that the "width" referred to here is the lateral dimension of the bracket when it is installed in the vehicle and faces the user. This width reflects the visual and actual lateral range occupied by the bracket in the vehicle's usable space, and to some extent affects the passenger's perception and the compatibility between the bracket and the terminal device 10.
[0106] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 2 As shown in the figure, the left-right direction represents the width of the support body 100, and the maximum dimension of the support body 100 in this direction is 67mm; the up-down direction represents the height of the support body 100, and the maximum dimension of the support body 100 in this direction is 122mm. Further, refer to... Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the left-right direction represents the depth of the bracket body 100, and the maximum dimension of the bracket body 100 in this direction is 81mm. This dimension allows the bracket to be installed and fixed within the limited space of the rear seats of the vehicle, while avoiding excessive occupation of the passenger space, thus balancing the stable installation of the equipment with passenger comfort. By controlling the overall external dimensions of the bracket body 100, it is made more suitable for application in the confined space environment inside the vehicle, improving the adaptability and integration of the structure.
[0107] It should be understood that the structural dimensions of the support body 100 vary to a certain extent in the corresponding direction, and the "maximum dimension" referred to here means the maximum value that the support body 100 may reach in a specific direction. For example, refer to... Figure 2The profile of the support body 100 varies in the width direction, with a maximum width of 67mm, representing the maximum lateral dimension achievable by the support body 100 in the width direction; the maximum dimension in the height direction is 122mm, which also refers to the maximum vertical dimension of the support body 100 in the height direction. Further, referring to... Figure 3 The maximum dimension of the support body 100 in the depth direction is 81mm, which indicates the maximum longitudinal dimension that its structure can achieve by extending in the depth direction.
[0108] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 The bracket body 100 includes an electrical connection connector 170 for electrical connection with the terminal device 10. Exemplarily, the electrical connection connector 170 may include charging contacts for power supply and / or a communication interface for data transmission.
[0109] By providing the electrical connector 170, an electrical connection can be established between the bracket and the terminal device 10 after the terminal device 10 is installed on the bracket body 100. This allows the terminal device 10 to be powered or charged, preventing it from running out of power during prolonged use and improving its battery life. Furthermore, the electrical connector 170 can also establish a communication connection with the terminal device 10, enabling the vehicle control system to interact with it, such as synchronizing audio and video signals and applying control commands. This enhances the linkage performance between the terminal device 10 and the vehicle system.
[0110] It should be understood that the structural form of the electrical connector 170 is not limited; it can be a common standard interface such as USB-Type C, Lightning, or Micro-USB, or it can be a dedicated interface. Furthermore, the electrical connector 170 can be fixedly disposed at a preset position on the bracket body 100, for example, on the first part 150 for mounting the terminal device 10, or it can be disposed in the connector 300 to facilitate docking with the terminal device 10. This application does not limit this aspect.
[0111] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 8 The electrical connector 170 is electrically connected to the terminal device 10 via a charging cable. Specifically, the electrical connector 170 can be disposed on the first part 150 or the second part 160. The output end of the electrical connector 170 is connected to the charging cable, and the other end of the charging cable is provided with a plug structure adapted to the terminal device 10, so that after the terminal device 10 is installed on the bracket, power transmission with the terminal device 10 can be realized through the charging cable.
[0112] Through the above design, the charging cable improves connection flexibility to a certain extent, allowing the bracket to adapt to terminal devices 10 with different interface positions. Compared to rigid connector structures, the charging cable has a degree of flexibility, making it easier for users to operate during the installation or removal of terminal devices 10 and helping to reduce the risk of interface damage. In addition, when the bracket's charging function is not in use, the charging cable can be properly stored to avoid affecting the tidiness of the vehicle's interior space.
[0113] It should be understood that charging cables can be straight cables, or they can include different forms such as coiled cables or magnetic cables, to adapt to the needs of different usage scenarios regarding connection convenience and space occupation. This application does not limit this.
[0114] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 2 , Figure 3 The first part 150 includes a snap-fit assembly 140, which is adapted to fix the terminal device 10 to the bracket body 100. The snap-fit assembly 140 can clamp the terminal device 10 through elastic deformation or displacement during installation, which facilitates installation and helps improve the stability of the fixation, reducing the risk of loosening or falling off the terminal device 10 during use. It should be understood that the specific structural form of the snap-fit assembly 140 is not limited and may include various implementation methods such as elastic fasteners, sliding fasteners, and swivel fasteners to adapt to the installation requirements of different terminal devices 10.
[0115] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 2 , Figure 3 The latching assembly 140 includes a first fastener 141 and a second fastener 142. The first fastener 141 and the second fastener 142 can move closer to or further apart from each other under the action of external force to fix the terminal device 10 between the first fastener 141 and the second fastener 142 or to release the terminal device 10. Through this structural design, reliable fixation of the terminal device 10 can be achieved, while facilitating the user to install or remove the device by applying external force.
[0116] Specifically, the first fastener 141 and the second fastener 142 can be connected by an elastic structure, a sliding guide rail, or a hinge, allowing them to move relative to each other under external force. This relative movement causes a change in the clamping force between the fasteners, thereby achieving the function of fixing or releasing. This design improves the ease of use and assembly efficiency of the buckle assembly 140 and is suitable for terminal devices 10 of various sizes and shapes.
[0117] It should be understood that the specific structure and connection method of the first fastener 141 and the second fastener 142 can be adjusted according to actual needs, and this application does not impose any restrictions on this.
[0118] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 3The second part 160 includes an insertion part 161 adapted for installation in a vehicle, and the insertion part 161 is provided with an electrical connection contact 162 configured to electrically connect with the vehicle when the insertion part 161 is installed in the vehicle, thereby realizing the connection between the bracket and the vehicle's electrical system. This design helps to provide power supply and data communication interface for the terminal device 10 on the bracket, improving the functionality and applicability of the bracket.
[0119] For example, the vehicle has a vehicle electrical connection contact 162 corresponding to the electrical connection contact 162 of the insertion part 161. When the insertion part 161 is installed in the vehicle, the electrical connection contact 162 contacts the vehicle's electrical connection contact 162, thereby realizing an electrical connection between the bracket and the vehicle. This corresponding contact arrangement facilitates a stable and reliable electrical connection and simplifies the integration of the bracket with the vehicle's electrical system. In some embodiments, reference is made to... Figure 2 , Figure 3 The bracket includes a bracket body 100 and an in-situ detection device 200. The bracket body 100 is used to mount a terminal device 10, which is detachably mounted on the bracket body 100 for easy placement and removal as needed. The bracket body 100 can be detachable, integrally molded with the vehicle structure, or designed to be retractable, suitable for installation in different locations within the vehicle.
[0120] In some exemplary embodiments, the bracket body 100 is installed inside the vehicle, such as on the center console, seat, door, or trunk, to meet different equipment support needs. In some specific embodiments, the bracket body 100 is preferably installed on the backrest of the front seat, which helps to fix the terminal device 10 within the passenger's line of sight, making it convenient for rear passengers to view or operate.
[0121] It should be noted that "terminal device 10" in this embodiment is not limited to a specific type. It can be a portable electronic terminal such as a tablet computer or mobile phone, or it can be an in-vehicle entertainment device, an information display terminal, or a control device for human-computer interaction. The specific type of device that is adapted can be selected according to the actual application scenario and is not limited to the types of devices listed in this embodiment.
[0122] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 The insertion part 161 is provided with a locking component 163, which is configured to lock the insertion part 161 to the vehicle when it is inserted, thereby fixing the insertion part 161 to the vehicle. Through this locking component 163, a mechanical engagement is formed after the insertion part 161 is inserted into a preset mounting structure, thereby improving the stability of the connection and preventing the insertion part 161 from loosening or shifting during vehicle operation.
[0123] The locking assembly 163 may take the form of, but is not limited to, an elastic latch, a locking structure, or a spring-loaded component. During insertion, the insertion part 161 is triggered to deform or displace in accordance with the interaction between itself and the internal structure of the vehicle, thereby achieving automatic locking. When the user needs to disassemble the insertion part 161, the locking assembly 163 can be disengaged by external force (such as pressing the unlock button 164 or pulling the release mechanism), thereby releasing the insertion part 161 from the locked state.
[0124] It should be understood that the term "locking connection" here does not mean that it is absolutely impossible to loosen, but rather that the structural fit provides sufficient fixing strength under normal use conditions to meet the stable installation requirements during bracket use. The structural style and arrangement of the snap-fit assembly 163 can be flexibly designed according to the actual vehicle space and ease of operation.
[0125] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 The bracket body 100 is equipped with an unlock button 164, and the latching component 163 has a locked state and an unlocked state. When the latching component 163 is in the locked state, it is in a locked connection state with the vehicle; when the latching component 163 is in the unlocked state, it is in a unlocked connection state with the vehicle. The unlock button 164 is configured to switch the latching component 163 between the locked state and the unlocked state under the action of external force.
[0126] By setting the unlock button 164, users can switch the state of the latching component 163 with minimal operational force, improving ease of use. For example, the latching component 163 may include a resilient latch or a spring-loaded latch that automatically pops out to form a lock after the insertion part 161 is inserted into the vehicle. When disassembly is required, pressing the unlock button 164 retracts or releases the latch or latch, thereby disengaging the latching relationship between the insertion part 161 and the vehicle.
[0127] It should be understood that the "unlock button 164" can be a push-button, a sliding structure, or other form of mechanical operating component, and its specific structure can be flexibly adjusted according to the vehicle's interior space and usage scenarios. This unlocking structure facilitates the repeated installation and removal of the insertion part 161, improving the modularity of the bracket and the overall ease of system maintenance.
[0128] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 2 , Figure 3 An in-situ detection device 200 is disposed on the bracket body 100. The in-situ detection device 200 is configured to generate in-situ information when it detects that the terminal device 10 is installed on the bracket body 100. This in-situ information can be used to indicate that the terminal device 10 is currently in the installation state, providing a basis for subsequent information prompts or security management.
[0129] It is understandable that the in-situ detection device 200 can be of various types, such as contact detection device, magnetic induction detection device, photoelectric detection device or capacitive detection device, etc.
[0130] In some embodiments, the presence detection device 200 includes a contact detection device, such as a microswitch or a spring switch, which triggers the switch action through physical contact between the terminal device 10 and the detection device, thereby generating presence information. This method has a simple structure, rapid response, and is beneficial for achieving accurate installation status detection.
[0131] In some embodiments, the in-situ detection device 200 includes a magnetic induction detection device that determines whether the device is installed correctly by detecting the magnetic elements or changes in the magnetic field of the terminal device 10. When the terminal device 10 approaches the bracket, the detection device senses the change in the magnetic field signal, thereby generating in-situ information. This method avoids mechanical wear and is suitable for scenarios requiring frequent installation and removal.
[0132] In some embodiments, the presence detection device 200 includes a photoelectric detection device that detects the presence or absence of the terminal device 10 through the cooperation of infrared emitting and receiving elements. When the device enters the detection range, it blocks or reflects the light signal, triggering the detection device to generate presence information. This method has non-contact characteristics, which helps to improve the durability of the device and the sensitivity of the detection.
[0133] In some embodiments, the in-situ detection device 200 includes a capacitive detection device that determines whether the device is properly installed by detecting changes in capacitance between the terminal device 10 and the bracket. This method is suitable for applications requiring high contact sensitivity and enables non-mechanical contact detection.
[0134] The aforementioned different types of in-situ detection devices 200 can all realize the installation status detection of terminal equipment 10, and are suitable for different application requirements and environmental conditions. By selecting the type of detection device and its structural arrangement, the accuracy and stability of detection can be improved to a certain extent, thereby effectively supporting the vehicle's real-time monitoring and reminder functions for the status of terminal equipment 10.
[0135] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 2 , Figure 3 The support body 100 includes a mounting area 110 for supporting the terminal device 10; an in-situ detection device 200 is disposed in the mounting area 110. Figure 1In the diagram, the area inside the closed line indicated by the arrow labeled 110 is the installation area 110. By arranging the in-situ detection device 200 at a specific location within the installation area 110, the possibility of false triggering can be effectively reduced. Simultaneously, when the terminal device 10 is installed in this installation area 110, it can cover the in-situ detection device 200, thereby providing a certain degree of protection for the detection device and reducing the risk of damage caused by external forces or environmental factors.
[0136] In some embodiments, the presence detection device 200 is configured to generate presence information when the terminal device 10 is installed onto the bracket body 100 and comes into physical contact with the presence detection device 200. Employing a contact-triggered detection method helps improve the accuracy of installation status identification. Compared to photosensitive, magnetically sensitive, or other non-contact detection methods, the contact-triggered mechanism can reduce misjudgments caused by factors such as ambient light and magnetic interference to a certain extent, thereby enhancing the reliability of the detection process.
[0137] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 2 , Figure 3 The presence detection device 200 includes a contact switch. This contact switch can be triggered by physical contact with the terminal device 10, thereby generating presence information. This structure is relatively simple to implement, has a fast response speed, and helps to reliably detect the installation status of the terminal device 10.
[0138] In some embodiments, the bracket body 100 is provided with a mounting groove 120, and the presence detection device 200 is disposed within the mounting groove 120. The length of the presence detection device 200 in the depth direction of the mounting groove 120 is less than the depth of the mounting groove 120. The presence detection device 200 is configured to be triggered after the terminal device 10 is installed onto the bracket body 100. This arrangement ensures that the presence detection device 200 is disposed within the internal space of the mounting groove 120 and does not protrude from the groove opening, thereby reducing the likelihood of accidental activation when the terminal device 10 is not installed.
[0139] During use, when the terminal device 10 is installed into the mounting slot 120 and reaches the preset installation position, it can contact and trigger the in-situ detection device 200 to generate in-situ information. This structural design helps improve the accuracy of the detection and provides physical protection for the detection device to a certain extent, reducing the risk of external interference and accidental damage, and improving the overall reliability of the support system.
[0140] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 3 , Figure 4The bracket also includes a connector 300, which is configured to connect to the terminal device 10 and detachably connect to the bracket body 100, so that the terminal device 10 can be detachably installed onto the bracket body 100. By providing the connector 300, the terminal device 10 can be assembled with the bracket body 100 through the connector 300, thereby achieving detachable installation on the bracket.
[0141] This structural design helps improve the docking accuracy and stability between the terminal device 10 and the bracket. Compared to directly connecting the terminal device 10 to the bracket body 100, using the connector 300 as an intermediary structure can alleviate assembly compatibility issues caused by differences in the size, shape, or interface of the terminal device 10. By unifying the connection method between the connector 300 and the bracket body 100, different types and specifications of terminal devices 10 can be reliably fixed to the bracket through the connector 300, without needing to adjust the bracket structure for each device, thereby improving the flexibility of the assembly process and system compatibility.
[0142] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 3 , Figure 4 The bracket body 100 and / or connector 300 are provided with a magnetic adsorption structure 130, through which the connector 300 is detachably connected to the bracket body 100. By employing magnetic adsorption, quick and convenient assembly and disassembly can be achieved, improving the operational convenience of the terminal device 10 during use. Furthermore, the magnetic adsorption structure 130 has a certain self-positioning capability, which can improve the docking accuracy between the connector 300 and the bracket body 100 to a certain extent, enhancing the overall connection stability.
[0143] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 2 , Figure 3 The connector 300 is used for detachable connection with the snap-fit assembly 140 of the first part 150. The structure of the snap-fit assembly 140 enables reliable positioning and fixation of the connector 300, which helps to prevent the terminal device 10 from falling off or shifting position during vehicle operation, thereby improving the stability of the device installation.
[0144] In some embodiments, a dual fixation method is achieved through magnetic attraction and snap-fit engagement. This structure facilitates quick installation and disassembly while providing additional mechanical restraint through the snap-fit mechanism, thereby enhancing connection strength and reliability to a certain extent. It is suitable for supporting electronic devices in dynamic environments.
[0145] For example, the latching assembly 140 can be a structure such as an elastic latch or a movable latch disposed on the bracket body 100. The elastic latch can be formed of an elastic material and undergoes elastic deformation under the pushing action of the connector 300 during the installation of the terminal device 10. When the connector 300 moves to a predetermined position, the latch structure can return to its original shape and cooperate with the connector 300 to achieve latching, thereby restricting the relative movement of the connector 300. The movable latch can undergo structural displacement during installation through hinges, sliding, or other means, achieving locking after the device is installed in place.
[0146] During disassembly, the user can manually drive the latch assembly 140 away from its latching position, thereby releasing the connector 300 and disassembling the terminal device 10. This type of latching structure features simple structure, reliable connection, and convenient operation, which helps improve the assembly efficiency and operational stability between the bracket and the terminal device 10. This embodiment does not limit the specific form and operation method of the latching structure.
[0147] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 3 , Figure 4 The magnetic adsorption structure 130 includes a first magnetic element 131 and a second magnetic element 132. At least two of the first magnetic elements 131 are disposed on the connector 300, and at least two of the second magnetic elements 132 are disposed on the support body 100. The connector 300 is magnetically adsorbed to the support body 100 by the first magnetic elements 131 and the second magnetic elements 132. The magnetic poles of adjacent first magnetic elements 131 are opposite, and the magnetic poles of adjacent second magnetic elements 132 are also opposite. This alternating arrangement of magnetic poles helps guide the terminal device 10 to be installed in a predetermined orientation, avoiding misalignment or reverse installation caused by magnetic pole repulsion, and improving the accuracy and stability of installation.
[0148] For example, both the first magnetic component 131 and the second magnetic component 132 are permanent magnets or electromagnets. By selecting different types of magnetic components, the magnitude and control method of the magnetic attraction force can be adjusted according to actual application needs to meet the requirements of different environments and usage scenarios.
[0149] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 3 , Figure 6 The connector 300 is provided with a mounting cavity 310, and the first magnetic element 131 of the magnetic adsorption structure 130 is installed in the mounting cavity 310. The mounting cavity 310 provides a certain degree of protection for the first magnetic element 131, helping to prevent the magnetic element from being broken or damaged by external forces. Especially when the first magnetic element 131 is made of a relatively brittle material, this structural design is beneficial to improving the durability and reliability of the overall device.
[0150] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 4 , Figure 5 The connector 300 includes a detachably connected first component 320 and a second component 330, which, when mated, form a mounting cavity 310. This structure facilitates the installation of the first magnetic component 131 within the mounting cavity 310, and by disassembling the first component 320 and the second component 330, different specifications of the first magnetic component 131 can be easily replaced or customized to meet the needs of adsorbing terminal devices 10 of different sizes and weights.
[0151] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 4 , Figure 5 The first component 320 and / or the second component 330 are provided with a positioning structure 340, which is configured to provide circumferential or axial positioning during the assembly of the first component 320 and the second component 330. This positioning structure 340 enables precise alignment of the two parts, improving the stability and reliability of the assembly and preventing misalignment or loosening during the assembly process.
[0152] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 4 , Figure 5 The positioning structure 340 includes a positioning rib 341 disposed on the first component 320 and a positioning groove 342 disposed on the second component 330 and cooperating with the positioning rib 341. After the positioning rib 341 is inserted into the positioning groove 342, reliable alignment between the first component 320 and the second component 330 can be achieved, thereby ensuring the stability and accuracy of the assembly of the connector 300.
[0153] Understandable, refer to Figure 3 , Figure 6 The mounting cavity 310 formed within the connector 300 is a hollow structure. When the connector 300 is connected to the bracket body 100 via the magnetic adsorption structure 130, the hollow mounting cavity 310 can provide a certain buffering effect during the adsorption contact process, helping to reduce the impact force generated during assembly. Furthermore, since the mounting cavity 310 is in a closed or semi-closed state, this cavity structure also has a certain vibration isolation and sound energy absorption capacity, which can reduce the vibration and noise caused by structural collisions to a certain extent, thereby improving the comfort and stability of the overall assembly structure during use.
[0154] In some embodiments, the connector 300 is installed within the mounting groove 120 of the bracket body 100. By providing the mounting groove 120, the connector 300 can be spatially defined and guided, thereby ensuring it is installed in a preset position and improving the accuracy of assembly positioning. Simultaneously, the mating relationship between the mounting groove 120 and the connector 300 can, to a certain extent, restrict the movement of the connector 300 relative to the bracket body 100, helping to prevent loosening or displacement of the connector 300 during vehicle operation and enhancing the stability of the assembly structure.
[0155] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 2 , Figure 6 The inner wall of the mounting groove 120 is provided with an angular structure. This angular structure can form a shape fit with the outer contour of the connector 300, thereby limiting the rotational displacement of the connector 300 relative to the bracket body 100 to a certain extent, and further improving the reliability and stability of the connection between the connector 300 and the bracket body 100.
[0156] According to the second aspect of this disclosure, referring to Figure 7 , Figure 8 A device assembly is provided, including a terminal device 10 and a bracket as described in the above embodiments, wherein the terminal device 10 is configured to be mounted on a bracket body 100. This device assembly possesses all the beneficial effects of the aforementioned bracket, which will not be elaborated further herein.
[0157] In some embodiments, the terminal device 10 can be detachably connected to the bracket body 100. In some embodiments, the terminal device 10 can be fixedly installed on the bracket body 100. The terminal device 10 mentioned in this embodiment includes, but is not limited to, tablet computers, mobile phones, vehicle control terminals, entertainment playback devices, navigation devices, information display panels, etc.
[0158] In some embodiments, the terminal device 10 is detachably mounted to the bracket body 100 via the bracket connector 300. By providing the connector 300, the terminal device 10 can be detachably connected to the bracket body 100, which facilitates the installation and removal of the terminal device 10, and also helps to improve the universality and adaptability between different types of terminal devices 10, thereby enhancing the flexibility of the assembly system.
[0159] In some embodiments, the terminal device 10 and the connector 300 are either fixedly connected or detachably connected. For example, the connector 300 can be connected to the housing of the terminal device 10 by means of a snap-fit structure, such as the claw structure of the connector 300 can be embedded in a preset groove in the housing of the terminal device 10 to achieve a stable assembly; it can also be fixed to the housing of the terminal device 10 by adhesive, thereby achieving a relatively fixed connection relationship.
[0160] In some embodiments, the connector 300 can also be connected by plugging into the charging port of the terminal device 10. By using the charging port as the structural docking point, mechanical coupling between the connector 300 and the terminal device 10 can be achieved without additional openings or modifications to the device housing, thereby improving connection convenience and structural integration.
[0161] According to the third aspect of this disclosure, referring to Figure 8 , Figure 9A seat is provided, including the bracket as described in the above embodiments, or the device assembly as described in the above embodiments, and also including a seat body 20, on which the bracket or device assembly is mounted. This seat has all the beneficial effects of the bracket or device assembly described above, which will not be elaborated further in this disclosure.
[0162] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 8 , Figure 9 The seat body 20 includes a mounting base 21, and the insertion part 161 of the second part 160 is detachably connected to the mounting base 21. This detachable connection structure enables convenient installation and removal of the bracket and the seat, which is beneficial for the maintenance, replacement or upgrading of the bracket, while improving the flexibility and applicability of the overall assembly.
[0163] In some embodiments, the mounting base 21 is detachably connected to the seat body 20. This structure facilitates the easy assembly and disassembly of the mounting base 21, improving the maintainability and flexibility of the seat structure.
[0164] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 10 , Figure 11 The mounting base 21 includes a mounting opening 21a and a door 21b. The door 21b can switch between a first state and a second state under external force. In the first state, the door 21b closes the mounting opening 21a; in the second state, the door 21b opens the mounting opening 21a. The insertion part 161 of the second part 160 is used to insert into the mounting opening 21a when the door 21b is in the second state. Through the above structural design, when the insertion part 161 is inserted into the mounting opening 21a, an external force is applied to the door 21b to switch it from the first state to the second state, thereby opening the mounting opening 21a so that the insertion part 161 can be smoothly inserted into the mounting opening 21a. Correspondingly, when the insertion part 161 is disassembled and withdrawn, the door 21b can, to a certain extent, rebound to the first state by its own elasticity or spring device, closing the mounting opening 21a, thus covering and protecting the mounting opening 21a.
[0165] For example, refer to Figure 12 The door 21b can adopt a sliding rail structure, guided by sliding rails on both sides of the mounting opening 21a to slide along the depth direction of the mounting opening 21a. During the insertion of the insertion part 161, the insertion part 161 pushes the door 21b to slide deeper into the mounting opening 21a along the sliding rail, thereby opening the mounting opening 21a. When the insertion part 161 is removed, the door 21b, under the action of spring force or other elastic mechanism, springs back to the closed position along the sliding rail direction. This sliding rail opening structure is beneficial for achieving smooth movement and reliable closing of the door 21b, while preventing accidental opening of the door 21b due to external vibration or vehicle operation, thus improving the stability and safety of the connection structure to a certain extent.
[0166] It should be noted that "first state", "second state" and "door 21b" are all functional descriptions. The specific structural form and materials can be selected according to actual needs and are not limited to the above-mentioned sliding rail structure. Other structural forms that can realize the switching between the two states of door 21b can also be used, such as hinge type, rotary type, etc.
[0167] Through the above structural design, the mounting port 21a can be effectively opened and closed during the installation and disassembly of the insertion part 161, which is beneficial to protect the mounting port 21a and the internal structure, reduce the entry of dust or foreign objects, and at the same time provide convenience for the assembly and disassembly of the bracket and the seat, thus improving the overall user experience.
[0168] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 9 The snap-fit component 163 of the insertion part 161 can engage and fix with the mounting base 21 after the insertion part 161 is inserted into the mounting port 21a, thereby maintaining a stable connection of the insertion part 161. Through this snap-fit component 163, the insertion part 161 can reduce loosening or displacement during vehicle operation, improving the overall stability of the bracket. During disassembly, the user can trigger the unlocking key 164 located on the bracket body 100 or the mounting base 21 to release the snap-fit component 163, allowing the insertion part 161 to be easily removed from the mounting port 21a. This design facilitates convenient assembly and disassembly of the insertion part 161 while avoiding safety hazards caused by unstable snap-fit fixing. It should be noted that the snap-fit component 163 can be in the form of a spring-loaded buckle, a sliding buckle, or other structural forms suitable for achieving the snap-fit and release functions, and the unlocking key 164 can be driven mechanically, electrically, or by other suitable methods.
[0169] According to the fourth aspect of this disclosure, referring to Figure 6 , Figure 7 A vehicle is provided that includes the bracket as described in the above embodiments, or includes the equipment assembly as described in the above embodiments. This vehicle possesses all the beneficial effects of the bracket or equipment assembly described above, which will not be elaborated further herein.
[0170] The vehicle may be a gasoline-powered vehicle, a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle, or a new energy vehicle, etc., and this disclosure does not make any specific restrictions.
[0171] In some embodiments, the vehicle further includes a control module that is communicatively connected to the bracket presence detection device 200. The control module is configured to receive presence information generated by the presence detection device 200 and, in response to a passenger alighting event and the presence information indicating that the terminal device 10 is in place, output a prompt message.
[0172] The control module responds to passenger disembarkation events. When it detects that a passenger is about to disembark and the on-site information indicates that the terminal device 10 is still installed, the control module can output corresponding prompt information. This prompt information can take the form of visual, audible, or other means to draw the user's attention to the fact that the terminal device 10 has not been removed.
[0173] The above structural configuration can help users avoid forgetting the terminal device 10 to a certain extent, reduce the safety risks that may be caused by leaving the built-in battery of the terminal device 10 in a closed vehicle for a long time, and improve the overall safety of the vehicle and the user experience.
[0174] It should be noted that the communication connection can be wired or wireless, depending on the specific application requirements; the detection of passenger disembarkation events can be achieved based on vehicle door status sensors, seat sensors or other related sensing devices, and the specific solution does not constitute a limitation of this embodiment.
[0175] In some embodiments, the prompt information is output in at least one of the following ways: by playing a prompt tone through a speaker, by displaying an image on an in-vehicle display screen, and by sending a prompt message to a user terminal. By employing diverse prompting methods, the system can effectively remind users of the presence status of the terminal device 10 in different usage environments, thereby improving the reliability of the prompts and the user experience.
[0176] In some embodiments, when the control module receives the presence information from the presence detection device 200 and detects a passenger getting off the vehicle, the control module can trigger the speaker to play a preset prompt tone signal. This prompt tone can effectively draw the attention of the passengers in the vehicle to the fact that the terminal device 10 has not been removed, reducing the risk of forgetting.
[0177] In some embodiments, when the control module receives the presence information from the presence detection device 200 and detects a passenger getting off the vehicle, the control module can send a control command to the vehicle display screen to prompt the display screen to show a prompt message containing text or icons such as "Please remove external devices" to enhance the visual reminder effect and improve user recognition rate and responsiveness.
[0178] In some embodiments, when the control module receives the presence information from the presence detection device 200 and detects a passenger getting off the vehicle, the control module can also send the presence information and the getting off event information to the user terminal connected to the vehicle. The user terminal will remind the user through pop-up windows, notifications, or sounds, helping the user to know the presence status of the terminal device 10 in a timely manner even when not in the vehicle, thereby further reducing the possibility of forgetting.
[0179] In some embodiments, responding to a passenger alighting event includes responding to a door opening, seat pressure release, or passenger leaving their seat. Specifically, the vehicle is equipped with a door status sensor to detect the opening or closing status of the door. The seat is equipped with a pressure sensor or weight sensor to monitor the pressure on the seat; when the passenger gets up, the sensor can detect the release of pressure. Additionally, the passenger's departure can be detected by infrared sensors or ultrasonic sensors on the seat. By receiving the aforementioned sensor signals, the control module can determine the passenger alighting event. By combining data from multiple sensors, the passenger's alighting status can be identified more accurately, thereby triggering corresponding prompts and improving the system's response accuracy and user experience.
[0180] In some embodiments, the prompt information includes the current location information of the terminal device 10. By providing this location information, users can clearly identify the specific location of the terminal device 10, thereby facilitating timely retrieval and removal of the device, reducing the risk of forgetting it, and improving ease of use and security.
[0181] In some embodiments, the prompt information includes the current location information of the terminal device 10 and the identification information of the vehicle it is in. By providing the specific location of the terminal device 10 and the vehicle identification, users can accurately identify the vehicle in which the device is located, making it easier for users to retrieve the device in a timely manner, reducing the risk of forgetting it, and improving the convenience and security of use.
[0182] In some embodiments, the vehicle further includes an in-vehicle infotainment system (VVIS) that is communicatively connected to the terminal device 10. The VVIS includes a control module. The terminal device 10 is configured to send control commands to the VVIS to control its operating status. This configuration enables the terminal device 10 to remotely operate or interact with the VVIS functions, enhancing the intelligence of the in-vehicle system and the user experience.
[0183] In some embodiments, the control commands include at least one of the following: navigation function, audio playback function, call function, and / or air conditioning system adjustment function of the vehicle infotainment system. This configuration helps the terminal device 10 to flexibly control multiple functions of the vehicle infotainment system, improving the convenience of intelligent vehicle operation and user experience.
[0184] In some embodiments, the terminal device 10 generates control commands via voice recognition. This method enables users to control vehicle functions through voice interaction, improving the convenience and safety of operation, and is particularly beneficial for the need for manual operation during driving.
[0185] For example, the terminal device 10 can respond to voice commands issued by its location area, thereby enabling directional voice control for different locations.
[0186] In some embodiments, the terminal device 10 generates control commands through a touch-screen interface. This provides users with an intuitive interactive experience, facilitating convenient control of the vehicle's functions when not driving or when the vehicle is parked.
[0187] In some embodiments, the communication method between the terminal device 10 and the vehicle infotainment system includes at least one of Bluetooth communication, Wi-Fi communication, and / or in-vehicle local area network communication. By selecting multiple communication methods, it is possible to adapt to different vehicle configurations and usage environments, improve the stability and compatibility of communication, and thus facilitate the effective control of the vehicle infotainment system by the terminal device 10.
