[0020] In one embodiment, the driving assembly includes a locking structure and a driving member, the driving member being drivenly connected to the bracket assembly; at least a portion of the locking structure is disposed on the bracket assembly for locking the bracket assembly in the stowed state;

[0021] The triggering component is driven to the locking structure. The triggering component reduces the locking effect of the locking structure on the bracket assembly by moving the locking component, so that the driving component drives the bracket assembly.

[0022] In one embodiment, the locking structure includes a first magnetic member and a fourth magnetic member. The first magnetic member is disposed on the connecting support portion, and the fourth magnetic member magnetically engages with the first magnetic member to lock the bracket assembly in the stored state.

[0023] The triggering component is driven to the fourth magnetic component. The triggering component drives the fourth magnetic component to move, thereby reducing the magnetic attraction between the fourth magnetic component and the first magnetic component. The driving component drives the bracket assembly to rotate from the storage state to the support state.

[0024] In one embodiment, the housing has a receiving cavity for accommodating an electronic device; a portion of the housing on the side opposite to the receiving cavity is recessed to form a mounting cavity, and the bracket assembly is movably disposed within the mounting cavity;

[0025] In the stored state, the outer surface of the first support portion facing away from the accommodating cavity is flush with the outer surface of the housing facing away from the accommodating cavity.

[0026] In one embodiment, the support assembly further includes a leather sleeve comprising a plurality of connected leather segments, wherein the first support and the support bracket are respectively disposed in each of the leather segments and are movably connected by the leather sleeve.

[0027] In one embodiment, the triggering component includes a button body and an elastic element, wherein the button body is movably disposed on the housing along a first direction;

[0031] The first support portion has a second support edge on at least one side along a first direction, and the electronic device accessory has a lateral support mode supported by the second support edge; wherein the first direction is perpendicular to the second direction.

[0032] This application provides an electronic device accessory, including a housing, a bracket assembly, a drive assembly, and a trigger assembly. The bracket assembly is movably mounted on the housing to switch between a stowed state and a supported state. The bracket assembly includes a first support portion and a support bracket, which are movably connected. The opposite sides of the first support portion and the support bracket are movably connected to the housing. The drive assembly is driven by the bracket assembly. The trigger assembly is movably mounted on the housing to drive the drive assembly to switch the bracket assembly from a stowed state to a supported state. Thus, a user can trigger the trigger assembly to cause the drive assembly to move the first support portion and the support bracket relative to each other, switching from a stowed state to a supported state. This allows the trigger assembly to automatically unfold the bracket assembly without requiring the user to manually fold or pry it open, making operation more convenient. On the other hand, the support assembly includes a first support portion and a support bracket that are movably connected. That is, the support assembly includes multiple movably connected support portions. Therefore, when the support assembly switches to the supported state, the relative movement between the support portions allows it to form a predetermined support shape, and the interaction between the support portions provides support for the shell. This results in a support assembly with both good support effect and aesthetic appeal. Simultaneously, in the supported state, the first support portion and the support bracket can form a support angle, allowing them to support each other and making the support assembly more stable. Furthermore, in the retracted state, in a projection plane parallel to the first support portion, the projection of the support bracket lies within the projection range of the first support portion, and the support bracket is located on the side of the first support portion closer to the shell. Thus, in the retracted state, the first support portion can shield the support bracket, preventing it from being exposed to the external view, resulting in a stronger overall structure and better aesthetics.

[0046] In this application, the orientation or positional relationship of "first direction" and "second direction" is based on the appendix. Figure 1 The orientation or positional relationship shown is for illustrative purposes only and is not intended to indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, it should not be construed as a limitation of this application.

[0047] In the description of the embodiments of this application, technical terms such as "first," "second," and "third" are used only to distinguish different objects and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number, specific order, or primary and secondary relationship of the indicated technical features. In the description of the embodiments of this application, "multiple" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly defined.

[0048] In this document, the term "embodiment" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with an embodiment may be included in at least one embodiment of this application. The appearance of this phrase in various places throughout the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a separate or alternative embodiment mutually exclusive with other embodiments. It will be explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.

[0049] One embodiment of this application provides an electronic device accessory; please refer to [link / reference]. Figures 1 to 3 The electronic device accessories include a housing 10, a bracket assembly 20, a drive assembly 30, and a trigger assembly 40.

[0050] The bracket assembly 20 is movably disposed on the housing 10 so as to switch between a storage state and a support state by means of movement; the bracket assembly 20 includes a first support part 21 and a support bracket 22, the first support part 21 and the support bracket 22 are movably connected, and the opposite sides of the first support part 21 and the support bracket 22 are respectively movably connected to the housing 10.

[0051] The drive assembly 30 is connected to the bracket assembly 20 via a drive connection.

[0052] The trigger component 40 is movably disposed on the housing 10 so that the drive component 30 can drive the bracket assembly 20 to switch from the storage state to the support state. When the bracket assembly 20 is in the storage state, the projection of the support bracket 22 is located within the projection range of the first support portion 21 in the projection plane parallel to the first support portion 21, and the support bracket 22 is located on the side of the first support portion 21 closer to the housing 10.

[0053] Specifically, electronic device accessories can be accessory structures for any type of electronic device. For example, a phone stand or case. Of course, depending on the specific situation, it can also be an accessory structure for a tablet, power bank, or other electronic device.

[0054] The housing 10 is used to mount electronic equipment. By moving the bracket assembly 20, the bracket assembly 20 is extended to a supporting state, thereby supporting the housing 10 and the electronic equipment.

[0055] In fact, under the driving action of the drive assembly 30, the first support part 21 and the support bracket 22 are rotatably connected. The opposite sides of the first support part 21 and the support bracket 22 are rotatably connected to the housing 10.

[0056] The stowed state of the bracket assembly 20 is when the bracket assembly 20 is stowed onto the housing 10. At this time, the included angle between the bracket assembly 20 and the housing 10 is the smallest.

[0057] For example, when the bracket assembly 20 is in its retracted state, all support parts (including the first support part 21 and the support bracket 22) are in the same plane. It should be noted that "all support parts are in the same plane" means that in the retracted state, the bracket assembly 20 is housed as a single bracket plate, and the support parts do not form support angles but are located on the same side (back) of the housing 10. This allows the bracket assembly 20 to be sufficiently flat, with an angle of 0° between it and the back of the housing 10.

[0058] The support assembly 20 is in a supported state where the first support portion 21 and the support bracket 22 move relative to each other to a supported position to support the housing 10. At this time, the first support portion 21 and the support bracket 22 abut against each other to form a support angle, thereby jointly supporting the housing 10.

[0059] It should be noted that the support angle formed by the first support portion 21 and the support bracket 22 means that the first support portion 21 and the support bracket 22 form a mutually supporting support structure. The first support portion 21 and the support bracket 22 are not parallel, but rather form an angle.

[0060] For example, the first support part 21 can support the support bracket 22, and the support bracket 22 can be supported on the support plane.

[0061] For example, the support bracket 22 can support the first support part 21, and the first support part 21 can be supported on the support plane.

[0062] The support assembly 20 is not formed from a single rigid plate; it includes a first support portion 21 and a support bracket 22. The opposite sides of the first support portion 21 and the support bracket 22 are movably connected to the housing 10. The first support portion 21 and the support bracket 22 are also movably connected to each other.

[0063] It should be noted that, depending on the actual situation, the support bracket 22 may include only one support part or multiple movable support parts.

[0064] The drive component 30 is a structure with a driving effect. The drive component 30 is driven to connect with the bracket component 20. When the trigger component 40 is triggered by the user, it can drive the bracket component 20 to move relative to the housing 10, thereby allowing the first support part 21 and the support bracket 22 to move relative to each other, and thus realize the switch of the bracket component 20 from the storage state to the support state.

[0065] It should be noted that when the user does not trigger the trigger component 40, the trigger component 40 does not move relative to the housing 10, and therefore the drive component 30 will not drive the support component 20 to switch from the storage state to the support state. The specific implementation method is not limited.

[0066] For example, the drive component 30 includes a drive element that is driven and connected to the support component 20. The trigger component 40 has a locked state for locking the drive element and an unlocked state for unlocking the drive element. The trigger component 40 can switch between the locked and unlocked states by movement. When the trigger component 40 is not triggered by the user, it locks the drive element, preventing it from driving the support component 20 to the supported state. When the user triggers the trigger component 40, it unlocks the drive element by movement, allowing the drive element to drive the support component 20 to the supported state. In other words, the trigger component 40 switches from locking to unlocking the drive element by movement, thereby enabling the drive element to drive the support component 20. This allows the user to easily unlock the support component 20 with a single click.

[0067] For example, please refer to Figure 3 , Figures 7 to 9 The drive assembly 30 includes a locking structure 32 and a drive member, which is driven to the bracket assembly 20; at least a portion of the locking structure 32 is disposed on the bracket assembly 20 for locking the bracket assembly 20 in a stowed state.

[0068] The trigger component 40 is driven to connect with the locking structure 32. The trigger component 40 reduces the locking effect of the locking structure 32 on the bracket assembly 20 by moving, so that the driving component drives the bracket assembly 20. Therefore, it is easier for the user to unlock the bracket assembly 20 with one click.

[0069] Specifically, the trigger component 40 does not lock the drive component, but is driven to connect with the locking structure 32 so as to reduce the locking effect of the locking structure 32 on the support assembly 20 by moving, thereby making it easier for the drive component to drive the support assembly 20 to move to the support state.

[0070] The locking structure 32 can be provided on only a portion of the bracket assembly 20, or it can be provided on the entire bracket assembly 20.

[0071] The locking structure 32 is a structure that can lock the bracket assembly 20 onto the housing 10 to achieve a locking function. Its specific structure is not limited, such as a magnetic locking structure 32, a snap-fit ​​locking structure 32, a sliding locking structure 32, etc.

[0072] The trigger component 40 allows the user to apply force, enabling the drive component 30 to drive the support component 20 to switch to the support state. The trigger component 40 can be a pressable button, a pull-type trigger, a rotatable trigger, or a toggle trigger.

[0073] For example, the trigger component 40 is a button structure provided on the housing 10. In fact, the trigger component 40 can be pressed by the user so that the trigger component 40 can move relative to the housing 10.

[0074] In the supported state, the first support part 21 and the support bracket 22 can form a support angle to support the housing 10. A triangular support structure can be formed between the first support part 21, the support bracket 22 and the housing 10, thereby enabling the bracket assembly 20 to have a better support effect.

[0075] When the bracket assembly 20 is in the retracted state, the support bracket 22 is located within the coverage area of ​​the first support portion 21. The first support portion 21 can shield the support bracket 22, preventing it from being exposed to the outside view. From the projection plane, the projection of the support bracket 22 is located within the projection area of ​​the first support portion 21. Therefore, the bracket assembly 20 has a simpler appearance when retracted, minimizing the exposure of creases created between the multiple support portions to the outside view.

[0076] In the electronic device accessory of this application embodiment, on one hand, a bracket assembly 20 is movably disposed on the housing 10 to switch between a stored state and a supported state. The bracket assembly 20 includes a first support portion 21 and a support bracket 22, which are movably connected. The opposite sides of the first support portion 21 and the support bracket 22 are respectively movably connected to the housing 10. A drive assembly 30 is drivenly connected to the bracket assembly 20. A trigger assembly 40 is movably disposed on the housing 10 to drive the drive assembly 30 to switch the bracket assembly 20 from a stored state to a supported state. Thus, the user can trigger the trigger assembly 40 to cause the drive assembly 30 to drive the first support portion 21 and the support bracket 22 to move relative to each other, switching from a stored state to a supported state. Therefore, triggering the trigger assembly 40 automatically unfolds the bracket assembly 20, eliminating the need for the user to manually fold or pry it open, making operation more convenient. On the other hand, the support assembly 20 includes a first support portion 21 and a support bracket 22 that are movably connected. That is, the support assembly 20 includes multiple movably connected support portions. Therefore, when the support assembly 20 switches to the support state, the relative movement between the support portions allows it to form a predetermined support shape, and the interaction between the support portions provides support for the housing 10. This results in the support assembly 20 having both good support effect and good aesthetic performance. Simultaneously, in the support state, the first support portion 21 and the support bracket 22 can form a support angle, thereby allowing them to support each other and making the support of the support assembly 20 more stable. Furthermore, in the folded state, in a projection plane parallel to the first support portion 21, the projection of the support bracket 22 is located within the projection range of the first support portion 21, and the support bracket 22 is located on the side of the first support portion 21 closest to the housing 10. Therefore, when the bracket assembly 20 is in the retracted state, the first support part 21 can cover the support bracket 22 to prevent the support bracket 22 from being exposed to the external field of vision, which makes the bracket assembly 20 more integrated and aesthetically pleasing.

[0077] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 The support bracket 22 includes a second support portion 221 and a connecting support portion 222. One side of the second support portion 221 is rotatably connected to the housing 10. The connecting support portion 222 is disposed between the first support portion 21 and the second support portion 221, and is rotatably connected to the first support portion 21 and the second support portion 221 respectively.

[0078] Specifically, the electronic device accessory includes a first support portion 21, a second support portion 221, and a connecting support portion 222. The connecting support portion 222 is a support portion located between the first support portion 21 and the second support portion 221, and it can serve as a rotatable connection. This facilitates the rotatable connection between the first support portion 21 and the support bracket 22, and allows the bracket assembly 20 to be easily switched between a storage state and a support state.

[0079] It should be noted that the specific connection method of the first support part 21, the second support part 221 and the connecting support part 222 can be set according to the actual situation.

[0080] For example, please see Figure 3 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 The first support portion 21 has an abutting side 21a near the housing 10. The connecting support portion 222 is rotatably connected to the abutting side 21a near the first support portion 21 and abuts against the abutting side 21a in the supported state. Thus, on the one hand, it facilitates relative movement between the connecting support portion 222 and the first support portion 21, and on the other hand, it provides support for the first support portion 21 in the supported state, thereby improving the support stability of the first support portion 21.

[0081] Specifically, the abutting side 21a is the outer surface of the first support part 21 near the housing 10. In fact, the connecting support part 222 is rotatably connected to the abutting side 21a, and its specific connection position can be set according to the actual situation.

[0082] For example, the movable connection between the connecting support 222 and the abutting side 21a is located in the middle region of the abutting side 21a. As a result, when the bracket assembly 20 is in the stored state, the first support 21 can easily cover the connecting support 222.

[0083] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 7 , Figure 8 and Figure 10 The connecting support 222 has a connecting side 222a near the housing 10, and the second support 221 is rotatably connected to the connecting side 222a on the side opposite to the housing 10. This allows the connecting support 222 and the second support 221 to move relative to each other.

[0084] Specifically, the connecting side 222a is the outer surface of the connecting support 222 near the housing 10. In fact, the second support 221 is rotatably connected to the connecting side 222a, and its specific connection position can be set according to the actual situation.

[0085] For example, the movable connection between the second support portion 221 and the connecting side 222a is located in the middle region of the connecting side 222a. Therefore, the connection stability between the connecting support portion 222 and the second support portion 221 can be improved when the bracket assembly 20 is in a supported state.

[0086] In fact, during the process of switching the bracket assembly 20 from the supported state to the stored state, the connecting support part 222 rotates relative to the first support part 21 on the one hand, and flips relative to the second support part 221 on the other hand. At the same time, the second support part 221 and the first support part 21 also rotate relative to the shell 10, thereby realizing the folding of the bracket assembly 20.

[0087] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 7 When the support assembly 20 is in the supported state, the second support portion 221 and the connecting support portion 222 are arranged in parallel. This allows the support bracket 22 to provide better support to the first support portion 21 when in the supported state.

[0088] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 The drive assembly 30 includes a drive rope 31, one end of which is driven to the movable connection between the second support portion 221 and the connecting support portion 222, and the other end is driven to the movable connection between the first support portion 21 and the housing 10. This allows for better drive of the support assembly 20.

[0089] Specifically, the driving rope 31 is an elastic rope or elastic band with driving force. Its cross-sectional shape is not limited, such as a circular cross-section elastic rope or a flat cross-section elastic rope.

[0090] One end of the drive rope 31 is driven to the movable connection between the second support 221 and the connecting support 222, and the other end is driven to the movable connection between the first support 21 and the housing 10. Thus, when the user triggers the trigger component 40, the drive rope 31 can drive the first support 21, the connecting support 222, and the second support 221 to move relative to the housing 10, thereby switching the bracket assembly 20 from the storage state to the support state.

[0091] It is understandable that the drive rope 31 can be directly connected to the corresponding support, or the drive rope 31 can be indirectly connected to the corresponding support through other structures.

[0092] For example, the support assembly 20 includes a leather sleeve 23 fitted over each support part, and the two ends of the drive rope 31 are connected to the outer leather sleeve 23 of the corresponding support part, which can also achieve a drive connection with the support part.

[0093] In fact, when the support assembly 20 is in its retracted state, the drive rope 31 is in a stretched state and possesses elastic potential energy. When the user triggers the trigger component 40, the drive rope 31 contracts, thereby pulling the first support part 21, the connecting support part 222, and the second support part 221 to move relative to each other, allowing the support assembly 20 to move relative to the shell 10, thus switching to the support state. Simultaneously, under the tension of the drive rope 31, the support assembly 20 provides good support, effectively supporting the shell 10.

[0094] It should be noted that the bracket assembly 20 needs to overcome the tension of the drive rope 31 to switch from the supported state to the retracted state. This can be achieved by the user manually pressing the bracket assembly 20 to overcome the tension of the drive rope 31 and return it to the retracted state. Of course, depending on the structure of the electronic device accessories, it can also be achieved in other ways, such as the user triggering the trigger component 40 again to switch the bracket assembly 20 from the supported state to the retracted state.

[0095] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 7 The electronic device accessory also includes a first magnetic member 50 disposed on the connecting support portion 222. When the bracket assembly 20 is in a supported state, a portion of the second support portion 221 and the connecting support portion 222 are in contact, and the first magnetic member 50 is magnetically connected to the second support portion 221. This improves the connection stability between the second support portion 221 and the connecting support portion 222, and enhances the support effect of the support bracket 22 on the first support portion 21.

[0096] Specifically, the second support part 221 and the connecting support part 222 are attached together. They can be directly contacted and attached together, or they can be indirectly attached together through other structures, as long as they can be attached together.

[0097] Since the second support portion 221 and the connecting support portion 222 are in contact with each other in the supported state, a first magnetic member 50 can be provided on the connecting support portion 222 to magnetically engage with the second support portion 221, thereby improving the stability of the connecting support portion 222 adhering to the second support portion 221 and making the connection between the connecting support portion 222 and the second support portion 221 stable. This makes the contact between the support bracket 22 and the second support portion 221 more stable, thus making the support effect of the bracket assembly 20 on the housing 10 more robust.

[0098] It is understandable that the second support portion 221 can be magnetically connected to the first magnetic member 50. Depending on the specific situation, a magnetic structure may be provided on the second support portion 221 to magnetically engage with the first magnetic member 50, thereby achieving a magnetic connection between the second support portion 221 and the first magnetic member 50. Alternatively, the second support portion 221 itself may be magnetic, enabling it to magnetically engage with the first magnetic member 50.

[0099] For example, the second support 221 is made of metal, such as an iron bracket plate or a manganese steel sheet.

[0100] The specific materials of the first support part 21 and the connecting support part 222 are not limited, depending on the actual situation.

[0101] For example, the first support part 21 and the connecting support part 222 are made of plastic, such as fiberglass board or PC board (polycarbonate board).

[0102] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 8 The electronic device accessories also include a second magnetic member 51 disposed on the first support portion 21 and a third magnetic member 52 disposed on the housing 10; when the bracket assembly 20 is in the stored state, the second magnetic member 51 and the third magnetic member 52 are magnetically connected. This improves the connection stability between the bracket assembly 20 and the housing 10 in the stored state.

[0103] Specifically, in the stored state, by providing a third magnetic member 52 in the housing 10 area corresponding to the first support 21, the first support 21 can be magnetically attached to the housing 10 in the stored state, thereby preventing the first support 21 from shaking.

[0104] It is understandable that the magnetic attraction force of the second magnetic member 51 and the third magnetic member 52 is less than the driving force of the drive component 30. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the bracket component 20 from being unable to move after the user triggers the trigger component 40.

[0105] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 8 The electronic device accessories also include a ring magnet 53. The first support 21 has a clearance area 21b. When the bracket assembly 20 is in the storage state, the projection of the clearance area 21b is located outside the projection range of the support bracket 22 in the projection plane parallel to the first support 21. The ring magnet 53 is disposed between the clearance area 21b and the housing 10.

[0106] Specifically, by setting the ring magnet 53, it is possible to facilitate the attachment of electronic device accessories to external devices with magnetic structures, such as forming magnetic coupling with external devices that support magnetic wireless chargers, car mounts, wallets or electronic devices.

[0107] The annular magnet 53 is positioned below the coverage area of ​​the first support portion 21, but not within the coverage area of ​​the support bracket 22. From a projection perspective, in the retracted state, on a projection plane parallel to the first support portion 21, a portion of the projection area of ​​the first support portion 21 overlaps with a portion of the projection area of ​​the support bracket 22. The remaining projection area of ​​the first support portion 21 (i.e., the projection area of ​​the clearance area 21b) is outside the projection area of ​​the support bracket 22. The projection of the annular magnet 53 is located within the projection area of ​​the clearance area 21b.

[0108] Therefore, by placing the annular magnet 53 between the clearance area 21b and the housing 10, the space on the housing 10 can be utilized better, thereby reducing the overall size of the electronic device components. Furthermore, the side of the annular magnet 53 closest to the clearance area 21b is only covered by the first support portion 21, and the support bracket 22 does not obstruct the annular magnet 53. This improves the magnetic coupling effect between the annular magnet 53 and external devices.

[0109] In one specific embodiment, the distance between the annular magnetic field generated by the annular magnet 53 and the external device is greater than or equal to 0.8 mm and less than or equal to 1 mm, which can greatly improve the magnetic attraction force.

[0110] It should be noted that the specific arrangement of the annular magnet 53 on the housing 10 is not limited.

[0111] For example, a portion of the housing 10 is recessed to form an annular groove, and an annular magnet 53 is disposed within the annular groove. This effectively reduces the overall thickness of electronic device components, enabling the thinning and lightening of electronic device components.

[0112] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 , Figures 7 to 9 The locking structure 32 includes a first magnetic member 50 and a fourth magnetic member 54. The first magnetic member 50 is disposed on the connecting support portion 222, and the fourth magnetic member 54 magnetically engages with the first magnetic member 50 to lock the bracket assembly 20 in a stored state.

[0113] The trigger component 40 is driven to connect with the fourth magnetic 54. The trigger component 40 drives the fourth magnetic 54 to move, thereby reducing the magnetic attraction between the fourth magnetic 54 and the first magnetic 50. The drive component drives the bracket assembly 20 to rotate from the storage state to the support state.

[0114] In other words, the user can trigger the trigger component 40, which in turn moves the fourth magnetic component 54, reducing the magnetic attraction between the fourth magnetic component 54 and the first magnetic component 50 to less than the driving force of the driving component. This allows the driving component to move the support assembly 20 from its stored state to its supported state. Therefore, the support assembly 20 can be automatically unfolded by triggering the trigger component 40, eliminating the need for the user to manually fold or pry it open, making operation more convenient.

[0115] The locking structure 32 is designed to improve the connection stability between the bracket assembly 20 and the housing 10. Through the cooperation of the first magnetic member 50 and the fourth magnetic member 54, the bracket assembly 20 can be prevented from being accidentally opened in the stowed state, thus improving its stability in this state.

[0116] When the user triggers the trigger component 40 to make the trigger component 40 move, the fourth magnetic member 54 can move to reduce the magnetic attraction between it and the first magnetic member 50, thereby making it easier for the drive component to drive the bracket assembly 20 to move to the support state.

[0117] The first magnetic suction member 50 is disposed on the connecting support portion 222, and the first magnetic suction member 50 can move as the connecting support portion 222 moves. The installation method of the first magnetic suction member 50 on the connecting support portion 222 is not limited.

[0118] For example, a portion of the connecting support 222 is recessed to form a recessed area, and the first magnetic member 50 is engaged in the recessed area.

[0119] It should be noted that the trigger component 40 and the fourth magnetic component 54 can be directly connected for driving, or they can be connected via a transmission component for driving.

[0120] The fourth magnetic member 54 and the first magnetic member 50 are magnetic structures that can be attracted together by magnetic attraction, such as magnets. The fourth magnetic member 54 and the first magnetic member 50 are magnetically attracted to each other. They can be directly attached together by magnetic attraction, or they can be separated by other structures (such as a part of the housing 10), but they can still be attracted together by magnetic attraction to lock the bracket assembly 20.

[0121] The widths of the first magnetic 50 and the fourth magnetic 54 can be the same or different. Their specific values ​​can be set according to the actual situation. For example, the widths of the first magnetic 50 and the fourth magnetic 54 are the same, and the width is greater than or equal to 1 mm and less than or equal to 2 mm.

[0122] The number of the first magnetic attractor 50 and the fourth magnetic attractor 54 can be set according to actual needs; there can be only one or multiple magnetic attractors.

[0123] The trigger component 40 drives the fourth magnetic member 54 to move, thereby reducing the magnetic attraction between the fourth magnetic member 54 and the first magnetic member 50. It can be understood that, driven by the trigger component 40, the magnetic connection between the fourth magnetic member 54 and the first magnetic member 50 can be directly disconnected, or the magnetic attraction between them can be weakened, thus eliminating the magnetic attraction under the drive of the drive rope 31. The specific setting can be configured according to actual conditions.

[0124] For example, the first magnetic attractor 50 and the fourth magnetic attractor 54 are magnetically attracted together along a third direction; the triggering component 40 drives the fourth magnetic attractor 54 to move along a fourth direction, so that the fourth magnetic attractor 54 and the first magnetic attractor 50 are misaligned along a third direction, so that the magnetic attraction force between the fourth magnetic attractor 54 and the first magnetic attractor 50 is less than the driving force of the driving component, and the fourth direction is perpendicular to the third direction. Thus, by misaligning the fourth magnetic attractor 54 and the first magnetic attractor 50, the magnetic connection between them can be broken.

[0125] Specifically, the first magnetic attractor 50 and the fourth magnetic attractor 54 are arranged along a third direction and are magnetically connected together along the third direction.

[0126] By triggering the trigger component 40, the user can move the fourth magnetic chuck 54 along the fourth direction. The fourth magnetic chuck 54 is offset from the first magnetic chuck 50 along the fourth direction, thereby reducing the magnetic attraction between the fourth magnetic chuck 54 and the first magnetic chuck 50.

[0127] For example, the first magnetic accommodating member 50 and the fourth magnetic accommodating member 54 are magnetically attracted to each other along a third direction. The triggering component 40 drives the fourth magnetic accommodating member 54 to move away from the first magnetic accommodating member 50 along the third direction, so that the magnetic attraction between the fourth magnetic accommodating member 54 and the first magnetic accommodating member 50 is less than the driving force of the driving component. In other words, by triggering the triggering component 40, the user can move the fourth magnetic accommodating member 54 away from the first magnetic accommodating member 50 along the third direction, thereby weakening or eliminating the magnetic attraction between them.

[0128] For example, both the first magnetic component 50 and the fourth magnetic component 54 are integral ultra-thin magnet structures magnetized by multiple poles. The trigger component 40 drives the fourth magnetic component 54 to move until its magnetic poles repel the magnetic poles on the first magnetic component 50, thus achieving the unlocking effect. In the stored state, the fourth magnetic component 54 is positioned where its magnetic poles attract the corresponding magnetic poles on the first magnetic component 50, thus achieving the locking effect.

[0129] In one specific embodiment, when the user does not trigger the trigger component 40, the fourth magnetic member 54 and the first magnetic member 50 are magnetically attracted to each other, and the magnetic attraction between them is greater than the driving force of the driving member, which can lock the bracket assembly 20 in the stored state. This improves the stability of the bracket assembly 20 in the stored state and reduces the risk of accidental opening of the bracket assembly 20.

[0130] Specifically, when the bracket assembly 20 is in the retracted state, the driving member applies a driving force to the bracket assembly 20. However, this driving force is less than the locking effect of the locking structure 32 on the bracket assembly 20, and therefore cannot drive the bracket assembly 20 to rotate when the locking structure 32 locks it. The bracket assembly 20 can only move after the locking structure 32 is unlocked.

[0131] In other embodiments, when the user does not trigger the trigger component 40, the sum of the magnetic attraction forces between the fourth magnetic member 54 and the first magnetic member 50, and between the second magnetic member 51 and the third magnetic member 52, may be greater than the driving force of the driving member, thereby locking the bracket assembly 20 in the retracted state. This improves the stability of the bracket assembly 20 in the retracted state and reduces the risk of accidental opening.

[0132] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 The housing 10 has a receiving cavity 10a for accommodating an electronic device; a portion of the housing 10 on the side opposite to the receiving cavity 10a is recessed to form a mounting cavity 10b, and the bracket assembly 20 is movably disposed within the mounting cavity 10b.

[0133] In the stored state, the outer surface of the first support 21 on the side opposite to the receiving cavity 10a is flush with the outer surface of the housing 10 on the side opposite to the receiving cavity 10a.

[0134] In other words, in the stored state, the bracket assembly 20 is stored in the mounting cavity 10b, and the outer surface of the first support part 21 is relatively flat with the outer surface of the housing 10. As a result, the side of the electronic device accessory away from the receiving cavity 10a is less likely to accumulate dirt, and the aesthetics are higher, and the performance is better.

[0135] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 The bracket assembly 20 also includes a leather sleeve 23, which comprises multiple interconnected leather segments 231. The first support 21 and the support bracket 22 are respectively disposed in each leather segment 231 and are movably connected by the leather sleeve 23. This allows for a flexible connection between the support components through the foldable nature of the leather sleeve 23, and enables the support components to form a single unit, facilitating quick and easy opening of the bracket by the user.

[0136] In one specific embodiment, the first support portion 21, the second support portion 221, and the connecting support portion 222 are encapsulated in a leather sleeve 23 using a pressing process, so that the overall thickness of the bracket assembly 20 is greater than or equal to 0.8 mm and less than or equal to 1.2 mm. This reduces the overall thickness of the bracket assembly 20.

[0137] In one specific embodiment, the spacing between adjacent support parts is greater than or equal to 3 mm and less than or equal to 5 mm. This allows for easy connection between adjacent support parts while ensuring good support function of the bracket assembly 20.

[0138] In one specific embodiment, the area of ​​the leather sleeve 23 located on the opposite side of the first support portion 21 and the second support portion 221 passes through the housing 10 and is fixed in the groove inside the housing. This improves the connection stability between the leather sleeve 23 and the housing 10.

[0139] In one embodiment, the trigger component 40 includes a button body 41 and an elastic element 42, wherein the button body 41 is movably disposed on the housing 10 along a first direction.

[0140] The elastic element 42 includes a spring arm, one end of which is connected to the housing 10, and the other end is connected to one side of the button body 41 along a second direction, which is perpendicular to the first direction. Thus, when the user presses the button body 41, the button body 41 causes the drive assembly 30 to drive the support assembly 20 to switch to the supported state, and the spring arm undergoes elastic deformation and stores elastic force. When the user releases the pressure on the button body 41, the button body 41 returns to its original position under the elastic force of the spring arm, allowing for subsequent pressing of the button body 41.

[0141] It should be noted that the spring arm and the button body 41 can be integrally formed or separately formed.

[0142] There is no limit to the number of spring arms that can be installed.

[0143] For example, a spring arm is provided on each of the opposite sides of the button body 41 along the second direction.

[0144] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 9 The trigger component 40 includes a button body 41 and an elastic element 42. The button body 41 is movably disposed on the housing 10 along a first direction.

[0145] The elastic element 42 includes an elastic strip 421, and the trigger assembly 40 also includes a fixing plate 43 fixed to the housing 10. The fixing plate 43 is disposed on one side of the button body 41 along the first direction and forms a gap space 40a with the button body 41. The elastic strip 421 is disposed in the gap space 40a, and its opposite ends are respectively connected to the button body 41 and the fixing plate 43. This facilitates the reset of the button body 41.

[0146] Specifically, when the user presses the button body 41, the button body 41 enables the drive component 30 to drive the support component 20 to switch to the support state, and the elastic strip 421 undergoes elastic deformation and stores elastic force. When the user releases the press of the button body 41, the button body 41 resets under the action of the elastic force of the elastic strip 421, so that the button body 41 can be pressed again in the future.

[0147] There is no limit to the number of elastic bars 421 that can be set.

[0148] For example, multiple elastic strips 421 are provided between the button body 41 and the fixing plate 43, and each elastic strip 421 is spaced apart along the second direction.

[0149] The shape of the elastic strip 421 is not limited, such as V-shape.

[0150] In other embodiments, the elastic element 42 may also be a sheet, a spring, or a spring.

[0151] In one embodiment, the housing 10 has a receiving cavity 10a for accommodating an electronic device; a portion of the housing 10 on the side opposite to the receiving cavity 10a is recessed to form a mounting cavity 10b, a bracket assembly 20 is rotatably disposed within the mounting cavity 10b, and the housing 10 further includes a back plate located between the receiving cavity 10a and the bracket assembly 20, the back plate having the mounting cavity 10b, and the thickness of the back plate being less than or equal to 4 mm. This allows for a thinner and lighter electronic device accessory.

[0152] In one embodiment, the first magnetic member 50 and the fourth magnetic member 54 have the same width, which is greater than or equal to 1 mm and less than or equal to 1.5 mm. Thus, by triggering the trigger component 40, the user can cause the first magnetic member 50 and the fourth magnetic member 54 to be misaligned by 1 mm to 1.5 mm, thereby enabling the bracket assembly 20 to be driven by the driving force of the driving component 30.

[0153] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 10 and Figure 11 Along the second direction, the first support portion 21 has a first support edge 211 on the side opposite to the housing 10, and the electronic device accessory has a vertical support mode supported by the first support edge 211.

[0154] The first support portion 21 has a second support edge 212 on at least one side along the first direction, and the electronic device accessory has a lateral support mode supported by the second support edge 212; wherein the first direction is perpendicular to the second direction. Therefore, the bracket assembly 20, in its supported state, can vertically support the housing 10 and the electronic device as needed, and can also horizontally support the housing 10 and the electronic device as needed. This satisfies various user needs.

[0155] Specifically, along the second direction, the first support portion 21 has a first support edge 211 on the side opposite to the housing 10. The first support edge 211 can provide vertical support for the housing 10 and the electronic device when the bracket assembly 20 is in a supported state.

[0156] Along the first direction, the first support portion 21 has a second support edge 212, which can provide lateral support to the housing 10 and the electronic device when the bracket assembly 20 is in the supported state.

[0157] Depending on the actual situation, the first support part 21 may have a second support edge 212 on only one side along the first direction, or it may have a second support edge 212 on both opposite sides.

[0158] It should be noted that the specific arrangement of the second support edge 212 of the first support part 21 is not limited.

[0159] For example, the second support edge 212 is inclined relative to the first direction. Thus, by setting the second support edge 212 as an inclined edge relative to the first direction, it is convenient for the bracket assembly 20 to provide lateral support for the housing 10 and the electronic device in the lateral support mode.

[0160] In one embodiment, in the vertical support mode, the support angle between the housing 10 and the support plane is greater than or equal to 50° and less than or equal to 65°. For example, 50°, 55°, 60°, or 65°. In the vertical support mode, by controlling the support angle between the housing 10 and the support plane within the above range, it is convenient for users to use the electronic device vertically, thus meeting the user's viewing angle requirements.

[0161] In one embodiment, in the lateral support mode, the support angle between the housing 10 and the support plane is greater than or equal to 50° and less than or equal to 65°. For example, 50°, 55°, 60°, or 65°. In the lateral support mode, by controlling the support angle between the housing 10 and the support plane within the above range, it is convenient for users to use the electronic device horizontally, thus meeting the user's viewing angle requirements.

[0162] In one embodiment, the electronic device accessory further includes a first liner, and the trigger assembly 40 is disposed within the receiving cavity 10a of the housing 10. The first liner covers the side of the trigger assembly 40 facing away from the bracket assembly 20. Therefore, when the trigger assembly 40 is provided with a fourth magnetic 54, the mutual interference between the fourth magnetic 54 and the electronic device can be reduced, while simultaneously covering various fittings and grooves within the receiving cavity 10a.

[0163] In one embodiment, the electronic device accessory further includes a second liner disposed within the mounting cavity 10b to shield the annular magnet 53.
