Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electronic device accessories technology, and in particular to a bracket structure and an electronic device protective case. Background Technology

[0002] Existing methods for connecting the hinge to the bracket or hinge are typically plug-in. The bracket or hinge has matching shaft holes, and both ends of the hinge are inserted into these holes to achieve a rotatable connection. While this plug-in connection method offers some convenience during assembly, in actual use, because the bracket often needs to be rotated multiple times, the connection between the hinge and the hinge can easily loosen over time and with increased usage frequency. This loosening not only affects normal use but can also cause the hinge to detach from the hinge or bracket, leading to damage to the bracket. Utility Model Content

[0003] Therefore, in order to overcome at least some of the defects and deficiencies in the prior art, this utility model provides a bracket structure and an electronic device protective shell. A placement groove is provided on the first bracket connector and the groove width is smaller than the diameter of the rotating shaft, so that when the rotating shaft is inserted into the placement groove, the side wall of the groove tightly presses the rotating shaft to prevent the rotating shaft from coming out.

[0004] Specifically, in one aspect, the present invention provides a support structure comprising: a first support connector, a second support connector, and a rotating shaft; the first support connector is rotatably connected to the second support connector via the rotating shaft; the first support connector is provided with a placement groove, and the end of the rotating shaft is engaged in the placement groove; the support structure further comprises an anti-detachment structure, and the rotating shaft is confined within the placement groove by the anti-detachment structure.

[0005] In an embodiment of this application, the anti-detachment result includes a deformable wall. A pressing groove is provided on the first bracket connector. The pressing groove is adjacent to the placement groove. The deformable wall is provided on the first bracket connector and located between the pressing groove and the placement groove.

[0006] In an embodiment of this application, the deformable wall extends and protrudes from the first bracket connector in a direction away from the first bracket connector to form one sidewall of the placement groove, and bends toward the other sidewall of the placement groove to form the anti-detachment structure.

[0007] In an embodiment of this application, the depth of the pressing groove is less than the depth of the placement groove.

[0008] In an embodiment of this application, the anti-detachment structure further includes a fixing cover, which covers the opening of the placement groove.

[0009] In an embodiment of this application, the first bracket connector is provided with a fixing cover groove, the fixing cover groove is connected to the placement groove, and the fixing cover is located in the fixing cover groove.

[0010] In an embodiment of this application, the anti-detachment structure further includes a fixing member, and a gap is formed between the end face of the rotating shaft and the side wall of the placement groove, the gap being filled with the fixing member.

[0011] In an embodiment of this application, the anti-detachment structure further includes a fixing cover, and the fixing member is disposed on the fixing cover and extends from the fixing cover toward the placement groove into the gap.

[0012] In the embodiments of this application, the width of the placement groove opening is smaller than the diameter of the rotating shaft; the difference between the maximum width of the placement groove and the diameter of the rotating shaft ranges from -0.1 to 0.05 mm.

[0013] On the other hand, an embodiment of the present invention provides an electronic device protective case, comprising: a housing and a bracket structure as described in any of the foregoing; the housing is provided with a lens clearance hole, and the second bracket connector is disposed around the lens clearance hole.

[0014] As can be seen from the above, the above-mentioned technical features of this utility model can have one or more of the following beneficial effects: The bracket structure provided in this embodiment includes a first bracket connector, a rotating shaft, and an anti-detachment structure. The first bracket connector is provided with a placement groove, and the rotating shaft is engaged in the placement groove, so that the width of the groove opening is smaller than the diameter of the rotating shaft. When assembling the bracket structure, the rotating shaft is engaged by a downward pressing force, which causes the side wall near the groove opening of the placement groove to bend, thereby locking and restricting the rotating shaft in the placement groove. This effectively solves the problem that the rotating shaft and the bracket are prone to loosening due to external forces during use in the traditional plug-in method. At the same time, during the use of the bracket, the connection between the rotating shaft and the bracket is more stable, reducing the rotation shaft detachment and wear caused by loosening.

Detailed Implementation

[0029] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments described in this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0030] It should be noted that all directional indicators (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, top, and bottom) in this embodiment of the invention are only used to explain the relative positional relationship and movement of the components in a specific posture (as shown in the attached figure). If the specific posture changes, the directional indicator will also change accordingly. Furthermore, the term "vertical" in the embodiments and claims refers to an angle of 90° between two components or a deviation of -5° to +5°, and the term "parallel" refers to an angle of 0° between two components or a deviation of -5° to +5°.

[0031] In this embodiment of the invention, the use of terms such as "first" and "second" is for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, a feature defined with "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of those features.

[0032] In this embodiment, on the one hand, referring to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the bracket structure 1 provided in this embodiment includes: a first bracket connector 10, a second bracket connector 20, and a rotating shaft 30; the first bracket connector 10 is rotatably connected to the second bracket connector 20 through the rotating shaft 30; the first bracket connector 10 is provided with a placement groove 101, and the end of the rotating shaft 30 is engaged in the placement groove 101; the bracket structure 1 also includes an anti-detachment structure, and the rotating shaft 30 is limited to the placement groove 101 by the anti-detachment structure.

[0033] Specifically, refer to Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 9As shown, the first bracket connector 10 can be, for example, an annular structure. The first surface 105 of the first bracket connector 10 has a corresponding placement groove 101, allowing the rotating shaft 30 to be fully engaged into the placement groove 101. In this embodiment, the traditional plug-in method may cause the rotating shaft 30 to shift or even come out during use due to external forces, vibrations, or other factors. The snap-in method, however, makes the connection between the rotating shaft 30 and the placement groove 101 tighter and more secure. After the rotating shaft 30 is engaged into the placement groove 101, movement in all directions is restricted, improving the stability of the connection and ensuring that it maintains a good fixed position under various usage scenarios, without easily shaking or shifting. Moreover, the traditional plug-in method is relatively cumbersome to install and difficult to disassemble, while the snap-in method only requires applying external force to the rotating shaft 30 to engage it into the placement groove 101, simplifying installation and thus improving production efficiency.

[0034] In the embodiments of this application, reference is made to Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the anti-detachment structure includes a deformable wall 103. A pressing groove 102 is provided on the first bracket connector 10, adjacent to the placement groove 101. The deformable wall 103 is located on the first bracket connector 10 and between the pressing groove 102 and the placement groove 101. The deformable wall 103 extends and protrudes from the first bracket connector 10 in a direction away from the first bracket connector 10 to form one sidewall of the placement groove 101, and bends towards the other sidewall of the placement groove 101 to form the anti-detachment structure.

[0035] Specifically, when the rotating shaft 30 is engaged in the placement groove 101, the side wall and deformation wall 103 of the placement groove 101 undergo elastic deformation, generating sufficient friction or pressure to adhere tightly to the surface of the rotating shaft 30, making the groove opening width W1 of the placement groove 101 much smaller than the diameter D1 of the rotating shaft 30, thus pressing the rotating shaft 30 tightly into the placement groove 101 and preventing the rotating shaft 30 from falling off during operation.

[0036] In the embodiments of this application, reference is made to Figure 4 As shown, the depth of the pressing groove 102 is less than the depth of the placement groove 101. Specifically, the depth of the pressing groove 102 is set to form the deformable wall 103 at the groove opening, which can deform to confine the rotating shaft 30 within the placement groove 101. If the pressing groove 102 is too deep, the bottom of the placement groove 101 will have a weaker ability to confine the rotating shaft 30, and the sidewall deformation will easily cause the rotating shaft 30 to move or shift.

[0037] In the embodiments of this application, reference is made to Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the anti-detachment structure also includes a fixing cover 40, which covers the opening of the placement groove 101. Specifically, the rotating shaft 30 is snapped into the placement groove 101, and the fixing cover 40 covers both ends of the rotating shaft 30, thus hiding the snapping area between the rotating shaft 30 and the placement groove 101. From the outside, the bracket structure 1 looks neater and more aesthetically pleasing, improving the overall appearance and texture of the product. Secondly, it can reduce the entry of dust and moisture into the rotating shaft 30, avoiding equipment failure or performance degradation, and extending the service life of the bracket structure 1. In addition, the fixing cover 40 can provide a protective barrier for the rotating shaft 30, reducing the risk of the rotating shaft 30 detaching from the placement groove 101 due to vibration or during use. Exemplarily, the fixing cover 40 can be attached and fixed to the opening of the placement groove 101 by means of pasting, glue, riveting, snapping, and / or welding. It should be noted that the pressing groove 102 can also be used as an overflow groove when the fixing cover 40 is fixed with glue, to collect and store the overflowing glue, prevent the glue from flowing everywhere, and keep the inside of the first bracket connector 10 clean.

[0038] In the embodiments of this application, reference is made to Figure 4 As shown, the first bracket connector 10 is provided with a fixing cover groove 104, which communicates with the placement groove 101, and the fixing cover 40 is located within the fixing cover groove 104. Specifically, the design of the fixing cover groove 104 provides a specific position for the fixing cover 40, making the overall appearance of the first bracket connector 10 neater and more aesthetically pleasing. Furthermore, when the fixing cover 40 is located within the fixing cover groove 104, the fixing cover 40 is less likely to shift during the process of fixing the object.

[0039] In the embodiments of this application, reference is made to Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 9 As shown, the anti-detachment structure further includes a fixing member 50. A gap 108 is formed between the end face of the rotating shaft 30 and the side wall of the placement groove 101, and the fixing member 50 is filled in the gap 108. In an embodiment of this application, the anti-detachment structure further includes a fixing cover 40, and the fixing member 50 is disposed on the fixing cover 40 and extends from the side of the fixing cover 40 toward the placement groove 101 into the gap 108. In this embodiment, by filling the gap 108 formed between the end face of the rotating shaft 30 and the inner side wall of the placement groove 101 with the fixing member 50, it is possible to effectively prevent the rotating shaft 30 from shaking or shifting during rotation. The fixing member 50 plays a role in supporting and stabilizing the rotating shaft 30, making the rotation of the rotating shaft 30 more stable and reliable. The fixing member 50 extends from the side of the fixing cover 40 toward the placement groove 101 into the gap 108, further enhancing the fixing effect on the rotating shaft 30, and effectively preventing the rotating shaft 30 from loosening or falling off. For example, the fastener 50 filling the gap 108 can also be glue-filled or individually fitted with interference filler.

[0040] In the embodiments of this application, reference is made to Figure 4 and Figure 9 As shown, the width W1 of the groove opening of the placement groove 101 is smaller than the diameter D1 of the rotating shaft 30; the difference between the maximum width W1 of the placement groove 101 and the diameter D1 of the rotating shaft 30 ranges from -0.1 to 0.05 mm, that is, the groove opening width W1 ranges from D1-0.1 mm to D1+0.05 mm. For example, if the diameter of the rotating shaft is 1, the groove opening width can be in the range of 0.9 mm to 1.05 mm. In this embodiment, the smaller gap 108 can reduce the relative movement between the rotating shaft 30 and the placement groove 101, thereby reducing the degree of wear. At the same time, the size setting of the rotating shaft 30 ensures that it always remains in the correct position, preventing loosening.

[0041] In the embodiments of this application, reference is made to Figure 7 , Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the bracket structure 1 further includes: a rotating shaft connector 60, which is fixed to the second bracket connector 20. The rotating shaft 30 is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft connector 60. Through the cooperation and rotational connection between the rotating shaft 30 and the rotating shaft connector 60, the first bracket connector 10 rotates in a direction away from or close to the second bracket connector 20. The first flat part 301 of the rotating shaft 30 is in close contact with the bottom of the placement groove 101. During the rotation of the first bracket connector 10, the first flat part 301 and the bottom of the placement groove 101 generate friction, making it difficult for the rotating shaft 30 to move or come out.

[0042] Specifically, refer to Figure 4 As shown, the first bracket connector 10 is provided with a hinge placement area 106, and the pivot connector 60 is placed within the hinge placement area 106, making full use of the space of the first bracket connector 10 and making the overall structure more compact. The side wall of the hinge placement area 106 near the inner ring of the first bracket connector 10 is a reinforcing wall 107. The setting of the reinforcing wall 107 ensures that the pivot connector 60 is not exposed from the inside of the first bracket connector 10, the outside of the first bracket connector 10, and when the first bracket connector 10 is closed, thus ensuring the neat and beautiful appearance of the first bracket connector 10. (Refer to...) Figure 8 As shown, the bracket structure 1 also includes a second fixing cover 70. The rotating shaft connector 60 is riveted and fixed to the second bracket connector 20. The second fixing cover 70 is respectively placed on the riveting point, so that when the first bracket connector 10 is in the open state, all the riveting areas are hidden and only the rotating shaft connector 60 is exposed. This can prevent the exposed riveting area from being easily damaged by dust and improve the aesthetics.

[0043] In the embodiments of this application, reference is made to Figure 9 As shown, the rotating shaft 30 has a first flat part 301 and a second flat part 302. The first flat part 301 is located at both ends of the rotating shaft 30, and the second flat part 302 is located on the surface of the rotating shaft 30, facing the same direction as the first flat part 301. The depth H1 of the first flat part 301 is greater than that of the second flat part 302. The second flat part 302 allows the rotating shaft 30 to rotate with damping. When the rotating shaft 30 is engaged in the placement groove 101, the first flat part 301 can fit tightly against the bottom of the groove, making the pressing more stable and reducing displacement caused by external force or vibration.

[0044] In summary, firstly, the pivot connector 60 is fixed to the second bracket connector 20 by riveting or other means. Then, the pivot 30 is assembled into the pivot connector 60, and the first flat part 301 is rotated to face the first bracket connector 10. Next, the pivot 30 and the pivot connector 60 are fixed to the first bracket connector 10 as a whole. The two ends of the pivot 30 are snapped into the placement groove 101, and the pivot connector 60 is pressed into the hinge placement area 106. Then, the fixing cover 40 is placed on the groove opening of the placement groove 101, and the second fixing cover 70 is placed on the riveting area where the pivot connector 60 and the second bracket connector 20 are fixed. At this time, pressing the buckle area completes the assembly of the bracket structure 1.

[0045] The provided support structure 1 includes a first support connector 10 and a rotating shaft 30. The first support connector 10 is provided with a placement groove 101, and the rotating shaft 30 is pressed into the placement groove 101. This is the first line of defense structure to prevent the rotating shaft 30 from coming out. The anti-coming-out structure also includes a fixing cover 40, which is placed on the opening of the placement groove 101. Both ends of the rotating shaft 30 are covered by the fixing cover 40 in the placement groove 101. This is the second line of defense structure to prevent the rotating shaft 30 from coming out. The end face of the rotating shaft 30 forms a gap 108 with the inner wall of the placement groove 101. The gap 108 is filled with a fixing member 50. This is the third line of defense structure to prevent the rotating shaft 30 from coming out.

[0046] The bracket structure 1 of this application features a multi-layered protection structure to prevent the pivot 30 from detaching, greatly improving the safety of the first bracket connector 10. During use, there is no need to worry about the pivot 30 accidentally detaching and damaging the bracket structure 1, providing users with reliable usage assurance.

[0047] On the other hand, refer to Figure 10 and Figure 11As shown, the electronic device protective case 2 provided in this embodiment includes: a housing 22 and a bracket structure 1 as described in any of the preceding claims; the housing 22 is provided with a lens clearance hole 21, and the second bracket connector 20 is arranged around the lens clearance hole 21. Specifically, the second bracket connector 20 is arranged around the lens clearance hole 21, and the second bracket connector 20 is provided with a mounting riveting area. The first bracket connector 10 is rotatably connected to the second bracket connector 20 through a rotating shaft connector 60 and a rotating shaft 30. The arrangement of the second bracket connector 20 and the first bracket connector 10 can form good protection for the lens.
