Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of 3C product accessories technology, and in particular to an electronic device bracket and electronic device accessories. Background Technology

[0002] Existing electronic device stands typically use a hinge structure to rotate and securely mount electronic devices or accessories. The rotation of the support allows the stand to be opened and closed, and users can adjust the tilt angle of the electronic device relative to the desktop by adjusting the rotation angle of the support, so that the tilt angle meets the user's needs or adapts to different usage scenarios.

[0003] Stands typically connect to a base via a hinge structure, with the base used to connect to electronic devices or accessories. The hinge structure usually consists of three parts: a first hinge, a pivot, and a second hinge. The first hinge is rotatably connected to the second hinge via the pivot. When the stand is closed for storage, the first and second hinges stack together, and the stand also sits on top of the two hinges. This stacking of the stand, first hinge, second hinge, and base contributes to a relatively thick overall thickness, hindering the pursuit of a slimmer design. For electronic device stands or accessories, users increasingly prioritize slimness and portability. Achieving a slim design while maintaining a stable connection is the future development trend for stand products. Utility Model Content

[0004] This application discloses an electronic device bracket, comprising:

[0005] A base for connecting to an electronic device or electronic device accessory, the base including a main body and a surrounding edge, the surrounding edge surrounding the main body to form a receiving groove for accommodating the support member, and the surrounding edge having a pivot insertion part;

[0006] A support member is rotatably connected to the base. The support member can rotate relative to the base to open for support or close and be stored in the receiving groove. The support member includes a bushing portion.

[0007] A rotating shaft, with both ends inserted into the rotating shaft insertion part, and a bushing part sleeved between the two ends of the rotating shaft, so that the support member is rotatably connected to the base.

[0008] Compared with the prior art, this application has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0009] The electronic device holder and accessories disclosed in this application feature a base with a surrounding edge and a pivot insertion portion on the surrounding edge. Both ends of the pivot can be directly inserted into the pivot insertion portion, while the portion between the two ends of the pivot connects to a support member, thereby achieving a rotatable connection between the support member and the base. Compared to existing technologies, the electronic device holder of this application no longer relies on a first and second hinge. When the holder is folded up, its overall thickness depends on the sum of the thicknesses of the holder and the base. By reducing the number of hinges connected to the base, the overall thickness of the holder can be effectively reduced, making the holder thinner and lighter, and easier to carry and use.

[0028] 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 some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0029] In this application, the terms "upper," "inner," "outer," "middle," etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. These terms are primarily for the purpose of better describing this application and its embodiments, and are not intended to limit the indicated device, element, or component to having a specific orientation, or to be constructed and operated in a specific orientation.

[0030] Furthermore, in addition to indicating location or positional relationship, some of the aforementioned terms may also have other meanings. For example, the term "above" may also be used in some cases to indicate a certain dependency or connection relationship. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of these terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.

[0031] Furthermore, the terms "provided with" and "connected" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral structure; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, or an internal connection between two devices, components, or parts. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of these terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.

[0032] Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," etc., are primarily used to distinguish different devices, elements, or components (which may be the same or different in specific type and construction), and are not intended to indicate or imply the relative importance or quantity of the indicated devices, elements, or components. Unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more.

[0033] Existing electronic device stands typically use a hinge structure to rotate and securely mount electronic devices or accessories. The rotation of the support allows the stand to be opened and closed, and users can adjust the tilt angle of the electronic device relative to the desktop by adjusting the rotation angle of the support, so that the tilt angle meets the user's needs or adapts to different usage scenarios.

[0034] Stands typically connect to a base via a hinge structure, with the base used to connect to electronic devices or accessories. The hinge structure usually consists of three parts: a first hinge, a pivot, and a second hinge. The first hinge is rotatably connected to the second hinge via the pivot. When the stand is closed for storage, the first and second hinges stack together, and the stand also sits on top of the two hinges. This stacking of the stand, first hinge, second hinge, and base contributes to a relatively thick overall thickness, hindering the pursuit of a slimmer design. For electronic device stands or accessories, users increasingly prioritize slimness and portability. Achieving a slim design while maintaining a stable connection is the future development trend for stand products.

[0035] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this application provides an electronic device stand and an electronic device accessory. By providing a surrounding edge on the base and a pivot insertion portion on the surrounding edge, the two ends of the pivot can be directly inserted into the pivot insertion portion, while the portion between the two ends of the pivot is connected to a support member, thereby achieving a rotatable connection between the support member and the base. Compared to the prior art, the electronic device stand of this application no longer relies on a first hinge and a second hinge. When the stand is folded, the overall thickness of the stand depends on the sum of the thicknesses of the stand and the base. By at least reducing the number of hinges connected to the base, the overall thickness of the stand can be effectively reduced, making the stand thinner and lighter, and more convenient to carry and use.

[0036] It is understood that an electronic device stand is configured to be mounted on the surface of an electronic device to support it. For example, it can be mounted on the back of the electronic device, that is, on the surface of the electronic device opposite to the display / viewing / operation surface. The electronic device can be a mobile phone, tablet computer, e-reader, etc., and this application does not specifically limit this. Similarly, the electronic device stand can also be mounted on an electronic device accessory, such as a protective case, card holder, power bank, etc., and connect to the electronic device through the accessory to achieve the function of supporting the electronic device.

[0037] The technical solution of this application will be further described below with reference to the embodiments and accompanying drawings.

[0038] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 This embodiment provides an electronic device bracket including a support member 1, a base 2, and a rotating shaft 3. The base 2 is used to connect with an electronic device or electronic device accessory. For example, the base 2 can be rotatably connected to the electronic device accessory, and the rotation causes the position of the support member 1 on the electronic device accessory to change, achieving support at different angles and in different scenarios. The base 2 includes a main body 21 and a surrounding part 22. The surrounding part 22 surrounds the main body 21, and the two together form a receiving groove 24 for accommodating the support member 1. A rotating shaft insertion part 23 is provided on the surrounding part 22. The support member 1 is rotatably connected to the base 2 so that the support member 1 can be rotated open relative to the base 2 for support, or closed and stored in the receiving groove 24. The support member 1 is provided with a bushing part 11, wherein the bushing part 11 can be integrally formed on the support member 1, or the bushing part 11 can be formed by a hinge, and the hinge is then riveted or welded to the support member 1 for fixation. The rotating shaft 3 is used to realize the rotational connection between the support member 1 and the base 2. The rotating shaft 3 passes through the bushing part 11 and both ends of the rotating shaft 3 protrude from the bushing part 11. The two ends of the rotating shaft 3 are inserted into the rotating shaft insertion part 23 to realize the rotational connection between the support member 1 and the base 2.

[0039] By providing a surrounding portion 22 on the base 2 and a pivot insertion portion 23 on the surrounding portion 22, both ends of the pivot 3 can be directly inserted into the pivot insertion portion 23, while the portion between the two ends of the pivot 3 is connected to the support member 1, thereby achieving a rotatable connection between the support member 1 and the base 2. Compared with the prior art, the electronic device bracket of this application no longer relies on the first hinge and the second hinge. When the bracket is stored, the overall thickness of the bracket depends on the sum of the thicknesses of the support member 1 and the base 2. By at least reducing the number of hinges connected to the base, the overall thickness of the bracket can be effectively reduced, making the bracket thinner and lighter, and easier to carry and use.

[0040] In some embodiments, continue reading Figure 3In this embodiment, the main body 21 has a ring-shaped structure, and the surrounding edge 22 surrounds the outer edge of the ring of the main body 21. The surrounding edge 22 includes a first end 221 and a second end 222, which are spaced apart and form a certain space between them. The rotating shaft 3 and the bushing 11 can be disposed in this space. Both the first end 221 and the second end 222 are provided with rotating shaft insertion parts 23, and both ends of the rotating shaft 3 are inserted into the rotating shaft insertion parts 23.

[0041] In some embodiments, see also Figure 4 The rotating shaft insertion part 23 includes a first shaft hole 231 and a second shaft hole 232. The first shaft hole 231 is located at the first end 221, and the second shaft hole 232 is located at the second end 222. The first shaft hole 231 and the second shaft hole 232 are directly opposite each other. That is, the first shaft hole 231 and the second shaft hole 232 are respectively located on the two end faces directly opposite the first end 221 and the second end 222. The two ends of the rotating shaft 3 are respectively inserted into the two shaft holes to realize the connection between the rotating shaft 3 and the base 2.

[0042] In some embodiments, see also Figures 7-9 The first shaft hole 231 is located at the first end 221 and extends away from the second end 222, penetrating the outer edge of the base 2. The second shaft hole 232 is located at the second end 222 and extends away from the first end 221, penetrating the outer edge of the base 2. By penetrating the outer edge of the base 2, when assembling the rotating shaft 3 with the base 2, the rotating shaft 3 can be inserted into the first shaft hole 231 and the second shaft hole 232 through the outer edge of the base 2.

[0043] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the electronic device bracket also includes a C-shaped connector 4. The outer edge of the base 2 is provided with a C-shaped mounting groove 28d, and the C-shaped connector 4 is disposed within the C-shaped mounting groove 28d. The base 2 is rotatably connected to the electronic device or electronic device accessories through the C-shaped connector 4. The two ends of the C-shaped mounting groove 28d are respectively provided with a first shaft hole 231 and a second shaft hole 232. The first shaft hole 231 extends to the side wall of one end of the C-shaped mounting groove 28d to form a first rotating shaft clearance groove 28e, that is, the first rotating shaft clearance groove 28e is a part of the first shaft hole 231. The second shaft hole 232 extends to the side wall of the other end of the C-shaped mounting groove 28d to form a second rotating shaft clearance groove (not shown in the figure, but the structure and shape of the second rotating shaft clearance groove are basically the same as the first rotating shaft clearance groove 28e). The second rotating shaft clearance groove is a part of the second shaft hole 232. As can be seen from the above embodiments, the rotating shaft 3 can be inserted into the first shaft hole 231 and the second shaft hole 232 through the outer edge of the base 2 via the first shaft hole 231 or the second shaft hole 232. However, the side wall of the C-shaped mounting groove 28d may interfere with the installation of the rotating shaft 3. Therefore, by setting the first rotating shaft clearance groove 28e and the second rotating shaft clearance groove, the interference caused by the side wall of the C-shaped mounting groove 28d to the installation of the rotating shaft 3 can be effectively avoided.

[0044] In some embodiments, continue reading Figure 9 When the rotating shaft 3 is inserted into the first shaft hole 231 and the second shaft hole 232, it needs to be fixed relative to the first shaft hole 231 and the second shaft hole 232, that is, the rotating shaft 3 cannot rotate within the first shaft hole 231 and the second shaft hole 232. Therefore, the outer circumferential surface of the rotating shaft 3 is provided with a first cut surface 31, and along the length direction of the rotating shaft 3, the first cut surface 31 extends from one end of the rotating shaft 3 to the other end of the rotating shaft 3. The inner surface of the first shaft hole 231 is provided with a second cut surface 231a, and the inner surface of the second shaft hole 232 is provided with a third cut surface 232a. When the two ends of the rotating shaft 3 are respectively inserted into the first shaft hole 231 and the second shaft hole 232, the first cut surface 31 and the second cut surface 231a are directly opposite each other, and the first cut surface 31 and the third cut surface 232a are also directly opposite each other. At this time, when the rotating shaft 3 is subjected to force and has a tendency to rotate, the friction between the first cut surface 31 and the second cut surface 231a and the friction between the first cut surface 31 and the third cut surface 232a will prevent the rotating shaft 3 from rotating, so that the two ends of the rotating shaft 3 are relatively fixed in the first shaft hole 231 and the second shaft hole 232.

[0045] Further, see also Figure 10The bushing 11 is a cylindrical structure with an opening, allowing the bushing 11 to deform through the opening when rotation occurs between the bushing 11 and the rotating shaft 3. This causes damped rotation between the bushing 11 and the rotating shaft 3. After the support member 1 rotates to a certain angle, it can be stabilized at that angle by the damping force between the bushing 11 and the rotating shaft 3. Simultaneously, the inner surface of the bushing 11 is also provided with a fourth cut surface 11a. The first cut surface 31 cooperates with the fourth cut surface 11a, allowing the support member 1 to remain in the retracted state. That is, when the first cut surface 31 and the fourth cut surface 11a cooperate, the support member 1 will be subject to resistance and will not detach from the retracted state. Only when the force applied by the user to the support member 1 exceeds a certain value can the support member 1 overcome the resistance and open.

[0046] In some embodiments, continue reading Figure 4 The base 2 also includes a reinforcing portion 25, with its two ends connected to a first end 221 and a second end 222, respectively. The reinforcing portion 25 is located on the side of the surrounding portion 22 away from the receiving groove 24, such that the reinforcing portion 25, the first end 221, the main body portion 21, and the second end 222 together form a receiving portion 26 for accommodating the bushing portion 11. Further, as... Figure 4 As shown, the receiving portion 26 is a through-hole structure that penetrates the base 2 along its thickness direction. The bushing portion 11 is located inside the receiving portion 26, and the surface of the bushing portion 11 is lower than or flush with the surface of the surrounding portion 22. That is, when the support member 1 is housed on the base 2, from the surface, the bushing portion 11 appears to be embedded in the base 2. The reinforcing portion 25 can connect the two ends of the surrounding portion 22, increasing the overall structural strength of the surrounding portion 22. At the same time, it also forms the receiving portion 26 to accommodate the bushing portion 11 and the rotating shaft 3. This means that when the support member 1 is connected to the base 2, the bushing portion 11 and the rotating shaft 3 are essentially embedded in the base 2, without affecting the overall thickness of the support, which is more conducive to the thinning of the support.

[0047] In some embodiments, see Figure 5In addition to the first end 221 and the second end 222, the surrounding portion 22 also includes a middle portion 223 located between the first end 221 and the second end 222. As shown in the figure, the dotted line in the figure can be regarded as the dividing line between the first end 221 and the second end 222 and the middle portion 223. The first end 221 and the second end 222 are set relatively wide so that there is enough space to set the shaft hole on the end face of the first end 221 and the second end 222. At the same time, since the first end 221 and the second end 222 will be subjected to force when the support member 1 rotates, by widening the first end 221 and the second end 222, their strength can be effectively improved, and problems such as breakage and damage will not occur when subjected to force. The middle portion 223 is set relatively narrow, which can further reduce the volume of the base 2, making the support structure thinner and smaller, which is beneficial to reducing the space occupied by it on the surface of electronic device components.

[0048] In some embodiments, continue reading Figure 6 The first end 221 includes a first arcuate portion 221a and a first widened portion 221b. The width of the first arcuate portion 221a is equal to the width of the middle portion 223. The first widened portion 221b is located on the side of the first arcuate portion 221a facing the receiving groove 24, and the side of the first widened portion 221b away from the first arcuate portion 221a has a first straight section 221c. Similarly, the second end 222 includes a second arcuate portion 222a and a second widened portion 222b. The width of the second arcuate portion 222a is equal to the width of the middle portion 223. The second widened portion 222b is located on the side of the second arcuate portion 222a facing the receiving groove 24, and the side of the second widened portion 222b away from the second arcuate portion 222a has a second straight section 222c. In some embodiments, the first straight section 221c and the second straight section 222c are coplanar. Since the outer edge of the base 2 needs to remain circular to ensure that the base 2 can be rotatably connected to electronic devices or electronic device accessories, the first arc-shaped portion 221a and the second arc-shaped portion 222a are set to be arc-shaped and have the same width as the middle portion 223 to ensure that the outer edge of the base 2 is circular. Simultaneously, a first widening portion 221b and a second widening portion 222b are provided on the side of the first arc-shaped portion 221a and the second arc-shaped portion 222a facing the receiving groove 24. On the one hand, this ensures the integrity of the first shaft hole 231 and the second shaft hole 232 within a limited space, making the connection of the rotating shaft 3 more stable; on the other hand, it strengthens the first end 221 and the second end 222, preventing them from breaking under stress. Furthermore, through the first straight section 221c and the second straight section 222c, the support member 1 is not affected or interfered with by the first widening portion 221b and the second widening portion 222b when rotating and retracting. The dashed lines in the figure represent the dividing lines between the various parts.

[0049] In some embodiments, further refer to Figure 3 , Figure 4and Figure 7 The main body 21 includes an inner surface 21b and an outer surface 21a. A receiving groove 24 is located on the side of the outer surface 21a, and the bottom of the receiving groove 24 is flat. In the prior art, since a first hinge and a second hinge are required for connection, with the first hinge connected to the support member 1 and the second hinge connected to the base 2, the second hinge is usually connected to the outer surface of the main body 21. Therefore, a groove needs to be provided on the outer surface 21a of the main body 21, i.e., the bottom of the receiving groove 24, to install the second hinge, or the second hinge can directly protrude from the bottom of the receiving groove 24, resulting in an uneven bottom of the receiving groove 24. In the groove-based solution, the main body 21 is missing a portion, which to some extent affects its strength. In the solution where the second hinge protrudes from the bottom of the receiving groove 24, when the support member 1 is housed in the receiving groove 24, a groove needs to be provided on the support member 1 corresponding to the position of the second hinge to avoid the second hinge, which also affects the overall strength of the support member 1 to some extent. In this embodiment, since the bottom of the receiving groove 24 is flat, the strength of the main body 21 is not affected, and there is no need to set a groove on the support member 1 to affect the strength of the support member 1. At the same time, the overall thickness will not increase when the support member 1 is stored.

[0050] In some embodiments, further refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8 The inner surface 21b of the main body 21 is provided with a wear-resistant part mounting groove 28a, and the base 2 also includes a wear-resistant part 27. The wear-resistant part 27 is disposed in the wear-resistant part mounting groove 28a and its surface protrudes from the inner surface 21b. In electronic device accessories, in order to ensure the strength of support and connection, the base 2 of the bracket is usually made of metal or alloy material. However, electronic device accessories, such as protective cases, are usually made of plastic material. When the base 2 rotates relative to the protective case, the inner surface 21b of the main body 21 will rub against the protective case. When metal and plastic materials rub against each other, the plastic material will often be worn down quickly, thus affecting the service life of the protective case. Based on this, the applicant provides a wear-resistant part mounting groove 28a on the inner surface 21b of the main body 21, and sets a wear-resistant part 27 in the wear-resistant part mounting groove 28a, with the surface of the wear-resistant part 27 protruding from the inner surface 21b. At this time, when the base 2 rotates relative to the protective case, the wear-resistant part 27 replaces the main body 21 in rubbing against the protective case. Wear-resistant part 27 can be made of silicone material, for example. Silicone is wear-resistant and will not wear out the plastic when it rubs against it, and its own damage is also very low. On the other hand, the surface of silicone has a large friction force, which can provide a certain damping force when the base 2 rotates, so that after the base 2 rotates to a certain angle, when the external force is removed, the base 2 can maintain that angle.

[0051] In some embodiments, see Figure 7, Figure 8 , Figure 16 and Figure 17 The base 2 is rotatably connected to an electronic device or electronic device accessory. The inner surface 21b of the main body 21 is provided with a limiting member mounting groove 28b. The base 2 also includes a limiting member 29, which is disposed within the limiting member mounting groove 28b. A limiting protrusion 29a is provided on the side of the limiting member 29 away from the inner surface 21b. The surface of the limiting protrusion 29a protrudes from the surface of the wear-resistant part 27. Figure 17 As shown, the protective shell has a bracket mounting groove 5a, and the bottom of the bracket mounting groove 5a has a limiting groove 5b. When the base 2 rotates within the bracket mounting groove 5a, when the limiting protrusion 29a rotates to the position of the limiting groove 5b, the limiting protrusion 29a extends into the limiting groove 5b. At this time, the user will feel an increase in resistance to rotating the base 2, which serves as a reminder that the base 2 has rotated to the appropriate rotation angle and the user can stop rotating the base. After the base 2 stops rotating, the cooperation between the limiting protrusion 29a and the limiting groove 5b provides a certain resistance to prevent the base 2 from rotating, ensuring the stability of the support. If the user wants to continue rotating the base 2, only a slight force needs to be applied to continue rotating the base 2. In this embodiment, the limiting groove 5b does not penetrate the bottom wall of the bracket mounting groove 5a. In other embodiments, the limiting groove 5b can also be a through groove that penetrates the bottom wall of the bracket mounting groove 5a. Both forms of the limiting groove 5b can achieve the same effect.

[0052] In some embodiments, see Figure 7 The inner surface 21b of the main body 21 is also provided with at least one fixture positioning groove 28c. The fixture positioning groove 28c is located near the rotating shaft 3, that is, near the receiving part 26. Since the rotating shaft 3 is inserted into the shaft hole by insertion, the base 2 needs to be fixed during installation. By setting the fixture positioning groove 28c, the fixture can cooperate with the insertion of the fixture positioning groove 28c to fix the base 2, which facilitates the insertion of the rotating shaft 3. Furthermore, setting the fixture positioning groove 28c near the rotating shaft 3 makes the fixation more stable, and the base 2 will not move when subjected to force.

[0053] In some embodiments, see Figure 10 and Figure 11 The support component 1 includes a support body 12, which is a ring-shaped structure. Along the circumference of the support body 12, on the side of the support body 12 facing the base 2, there are sequentially provided a first magnetic component mounting groove 122, a hinge mounting groove 123, and a second magnetic component mounting groove 124. See further details. Figure 12The supporting body 12 also has an inner circumferential edge 125 and an outer circumferential edge protruding on the side facing the base 2. The inner circumferential edge 125 is located inside the ring of the supporting body 12 and extends along the circumferential direction of the supporting body 12. The inner circumferential edge 125 surrounds at least one side of the first magnetic component mounting groove 122, the hinge mounting groove 123 and the second magnetic component mounting groove 124. The inner circumferential edge 125 and the outer circumferential edge protrude more than the first magnetic component mounting groove 122, the hinge mounting groove 123 and the second magnetic component mounting groove 124, so as to surround the three. Furthermore, the outer perimeter is located outside the ring of the support body 12. The outer perimeter includes a first outer perimeter 126a and a second outer perimeter 126b. The first outer perimeter 126a surrounds one side of the first magnetic component mounting groove 122, and the second outer perimeter 126b surrounds one side of the second magnetic component mounting groove 124. The other ends of the first outer perimeter 126a and the second outer perimeter 126b are separated by a hinge mounting groove 123. That is, no outer perimeter is provided at the location of the hinge mounting groove 123 outside the ring of the support body 12, forming a notch to facilitate the installation of the hinge 13. The bushing portion 11 of the hinge 13 can also extend out of the support body 12 through the reserved notch to connect with the rotating shaft 3. In other embodiments, only one of the inner perimeter 125 and the outer perimeter may be provided.

[0054] In some embodiments, a handle 121 may also be provided on the support body 12, wherein the handle 121 and the hinge mounting groove 123 are located at opposite ends of the support body 12. The inner perimeter 125 may surround one side of the handle 121, or the inner perimeter 125 may not be provided at the handle 121. Similarly, the outer perimeter may be provided in the same manner. The handle 121 facilitates the user to open the support member 1.

[0055] In some embodiments, further refer to Figure 13 and Figure 14The support member 1 also includes a hinge 13, which includes a connecting part 13a and a bushing part 11. The connecting part 13a is installed in the hinge mounting groove 123, and the bushing part 11 protrudes out of the hinge mounting groove 123 to facilitate connection with the rotating shaft 3. The connecting part 13a is elongated and arranged along the circumference of the supporting body 12. The connecting part 13a includes a middle connecting part 133, a first wing 131 and a second wing 132. The middle connecting part 133 is connected to the bushing part 11. The first wing 131 and the second wing 132 are connected to the two ends of the middle connecting part 133 and extend beyond the bushing part 11 in the circumference of the supporting body 12. A first fixing point 131a is provided on the first wing 131, a second fixing point 132a is provided on the second wing 132, and a third fixing point 133a is provided on the middle connecting part 133. The connecting part 13a is fixedly connected to the supporting body 12 through the first fixing point 131a, the second fixing point 132a and the third fixing point 133a. Fixed points can be, for example, rivet holes, welding points, adhesive points, screw holes, etc., as long as they can connect the connecting part 13a to the supporting body 12. Taking rivet holes as an example, at least one rivet hole can be provided on the first fixed point 131a, the second fixed point 132a, and the third fixed point 133a. At the same time, a corresponding number of rivet posts are provided at corresponding positions in the hinge mounting groove 123. During installation, the rivet holes are used to fit the rivet posts for positioning, and the ends of the rivet posts are treated by riveting to achieve fixation. In other embodiments, other processes or structures can be used to achieve fixation, and this application does not impose specific limitations.

[0056] Furthermore, the first fixed point 131a, the second fixed point 132a and the third fixed point 133a are evenly distributed on the connecting part 13a, so that the force on the connecting part 13a is balanced, which is more conducive to the stable connection of the connecting part 13a and ensures its structural strength and service life.

[0057] In some embodiments, continue reading Figure 13 and Figure 14The connecting part 13a has a first protrusion 133b and a second protrusion 133c protruding on the side facing the bottom of the hinge mounting groove 123. The bottom of the hinge mounting groove 123 has a first groove 123a and a second groove 123b recessed. When the hinge 13 is installed in the hinge mounting groove 123, the first protrusion 133b and the second protrusion 133c protrude into the first groove 123a and the second groove 123b, respectively. Through the above arrangement, on the one hand, the contact area between the connecting part 13a and the bottom of the hinge mounting groove 123 can be increased, thereby increasing the connection strength. At the same time, it can also effectively prevent the connecting part 13a from shaking in the hinge mounting groove 123. On the other hand, it can also play a foolproof role, avoiding the problem that the bushing part 11 and the rotating shaft 3 cannot work properly after installation if the connecting part 13a is installed in the wrong direction. Furthermore, the first protrusion 133b is disposed between the first fixing point 131a and the third fixing point 133a, and the second protrusion 133c is disposed between the second fixing point 132a and the third fixing point 133a, ensuring the structural strength balance of the connecting part 13a. The first protrusion 133b and the second protrusion 133c can also both be disposed on the intermediate connecting part 133. The first protrusion 133b and the second protrusion 133c can be directly formed by the connecting part 13a protruding from the side facing the bottom of the hinge mounting groove 123; alternatively, they can be formed by stamping, causing the side of the connecting part 13a away from the bottom of the hinge mounting groove 123 to be recessed, while the corresponding position on the other side protrudes to form the first protrusion 133b and the second protrusion 133c.

[0058] In some embodiments, see Figure 11 and Figure 12 The support member 1 also includes a first magnetic component and a second magnetic component. A first fixing post 122a protrudes from the mounting groove 122 of the first magnetic component, and a first fixing hole 14a is provided on the first magnetic component. The first magnetic component is connected to the first fixing post 122a by being fitted through the first fixing hole 14a. The connection method can be, for example, riveting, welding, etc., to install the first magnetic component in the mounting groove 122 of the first magnetic component. A second fixing post 124a protrudes from the mounting groove 124 of the second magnetic component, and a second fixing hole 15a is provided on the second magnetic component. The second magnetic component is connected to the second fixing post 124a by being fitted through the second fixing hole 15a. The connection method can be, for example, riveting, welding, etc., to install the second magnetic component in the mounting groove 124 of the second magnetic component. Furthermore, in some embodiments, the first magnetic component includes a first positioning component 141 and a plurality of first magnets 142 fixed on the first positioning component 141, and the second magnetic component includes a second positioning component 151 and a plurality of second magnets 152 fixed on the second positioning component 152, wherein a first fixing hole 14a is provided on the first positioning component 141, and a second fixing hole 15a is provided on the second positioning component 151.

[0059] Compared to the existing method of attaching magnetic components to support 1 using adhesive, riveting and welding provide more stable installation, preventing the magnetic components from detaching from support 1 during use. Taking riveting as an example, it can be achieved as follows: First, a base plate, which serves as the positioning component, can be made of metal. Magnets are then arranged on the base plate, with riveting holes placed there. The base plate is then inverted and placed inside the magnetic component mounting slot, with the magnets facing inwards and the base plate facing outwards. Finally, the magnets are riveted together using the riveting holes on the base plate and the riveting posts in the mounting slot, clamping the magnets between the base plate and the bottom of the mounting slot. For a more stable connection, riveting holes can be added to both ends or at multiple locations on the base plate.

[0060] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the support member 1 further includes a protective member 16. The protective member 16 is an open annular structure and is attached to the side of the support body 12 facing the base 2 to cover the first magnetic component mounting groove 122, the hinge mounting groove 123, and the second magnetic component mounting groove 124. The protective member 16 is, for example, a Mylar sheet or a silicone sheet. By attaching the protective member 16 to the surface of the support body 12, it can cover the magnetic components, hinges, and other structures, effectively preventing them from contacting air and undergoing oxidation or corrosion, thus providing protection. On the other hand, it can make the surface of the support body 12 smoother and flatter, so that users will not experience problems such as discomfort or scratches that affect the user experience.

[0061] Continue reading Figure 15 and Figure 16 This application also provides an electronic device accessory, which is a protective case. This embodiment uses a protective case as an example for explanation. In other feasible embodiments, the electronic device accessory can be other products, such as a power bank, a card holder, etc. The protective case includes an accessory body 5 and an electronic device bracket. The surface of the accessory body 5 is provided with a bracket mounting groove 5a, and the base 2 is installed in the bracket mounting groove 5a and can rotate within the bracket mounting groove 5a. By providing the bracket mounting groove 5a, the base 2 and the support member 1 can be installed and stored, effectively reducing the overall thickness of the protective case.

[0062] Furthermore, a wave-like, undulating protrusion structure can be set on the inner side of the base 2, with a recess formed between two adjacent protrusions. At the same time, an elastic structure is set on the accessory body 5 to cooperate with it. When the base 2 rotates relative to the accessory body 5, one end of the elastic structure moves along the wave-like, undulating protrusion structure. When one end of the elastic structure enters and leaves the recess, it can produce a clicking sound, which can relieve pressure and increase the playability of the bracket. On the other hand, it can also play a certain role in damping and limiting, so that the base 2 can remain in the support position after rotating to the support position and provide stable support, effectively improving the user experience.
