Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of mobile device bracket technology, and specifically to a mobile device bracket. Background Technology

[0002] While driving, it's often necessary to view the screens of mobile electronic devices, such as navigation maps. Therefore, mobile device holders have emerged. Mounted on the vehicle body or a supporting structure, these holders secure the mobile device next to the driver, allowing them to easily view the screen. Some holders allow for a press-and-slide unlocking mechanism between the device and the vehicle's connectors. However, due to the often small size of these holders, the device often sits between the device and the vehicle, making unlocking difficult and inconvenient for the user due to the limited unlocking method and obstructed view. Utility Model Content

[0003] This application provides a mobile device holder that solves the problem of limited unlocking methods for mobile device holders.

[0004] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this application provides a mobile device bracket, which includes a first connecting component and a second connecting component.

The elastic component has a snap-fit ​​portion. The second connecting component is used to connect to the first connecting component. The second connecting component includes a connecting seat with a slot.

[0005] The rotation of the unlocking component can cause the elastic component to slide in the unlocking direction. The reciprocating sliding of the elastic component can switch the locked and unlocked states of the mobile device bracket. In the locked state, the latching part is engaged in the slot. In the unlocked state, the latching part slides out of the slot in the unlocking direction. The elastic component has an elastic restoring force that allows the latching part to slide in the opposite direction of the unlocking direction. One of the first connecting component and the second connecting component is used to connect to the mobile device end, and the other is used to connect to the carrier end.

[0006] In one embodiment, the rotation unlocking assembly includes a swing member and a connector, both of which are rotatably connected to a fixed base assembly. The connector is used to connect to a mobile device or a carrier. The swing member and the connector are integrally formed or fixedly connected, and the swing member rotates with the connector. Alternatively, the connector has a pushing part, and the swing member has a driven part. The rotation of the pushing part can drive the driven part to rotate, and the swing of the swing member can drive the elastic component to slide in the unlocking direction.

[0007] In one embodiment, clockwise rotation of the oscillating member and / or counterclockwise rotation of the oscillating member can both drive the elastic component to slide in the unlocking direction.

[0008] In one embodiment, the number of driven parts is at least one, and the pushing part is spaced apart from the adjacent driven parts; the number of driven parts is at least two, and the pushing part is located between two adjacent driven parts; in the locked state, the pushing part is spaced apart from the two adjacent driven parts; in the unlocked state, the pushing part abuts against either of the two adjacent driven parts.

[0009] In one embodiment, the elastic component has an abutment portion with a first abutment surface, and the swing member has a second abutment surface for at least partial contact with the first abutment surface, so that rotation of the second abutment surface can drive the abutment portion to slide in the unlocking direction.

[0010] In one embodiment, the elastic component has two abutting portions, and the swing member is located between the two abutting portions of the elastic component. The swing member has two second abutting surfaces, which are respectively used to abut against the first abutting surfaces of different abutting portions.

[0011] In one embodiment, the rotating unlocking component is floatingly connected to the fixed base component, so that the rotating unlocking component can move away from or closer to the fixed base component; the rotating unlocking component has a first limiting part, and the fixed base component has a second limiting part; in the locked state, the first limiting part and the second limiting part are engaged; in the unlocked state, the first limiting part and the second limiting part are disengaged and both rotate relative to the locked state.

[0012] In one embodiment, the rotary unlocking component has a through hole extending along its axial direction, the fixed base component has a protrusion, the protrusion has a limiting step, the limiting step has a limiting surface perpendicular to the axial direction of the protrusion, the limiting surface is used to limit the floating of the rotary unlocking component toward the direction away from the fixed base component; the protrusion is disposed in the through hole, the first connecting component further includes a first elastic member, the two ends of the first elastic member are respectively connected to the fixed base component and the rotary unlocking component; in the unlocked state, the first elastic member has an elastic restoring force that enables the rotary unlocking component to move toward the fixed base component.

[0013] In one embodiment, the second limiting portion has a recessed portion, and the recessed portion is formed by a first mating surface and a second mating surface, at least one of the first mating surface and the second mating surface is a first inclined surface, and the limiting groove is recessed in the first inclined surface.

[0014] The first limiting part has at least one protruding part, which is formed by a third mating surface and a fourth mating surface. At least one of the third mating surface and the fourth mating surface is a second inclined surface, and the protrusion protrudes from the second inclined surface.

[0015] The end of the protrusion is provided with a sliding surface, at least part of which is a third inclined surface or curved surface that drives the first mating surface; the sliding surface is used to engage with the first inclined surface so that the protrusion can fall back into the limiting groove;

[0016] When locked, the protrusion is embedded in the limiting groove;

[0017] When unlocked, the protrusion disengages from the limiting groove and the two are misaligned in the circumferential direction; the protrusion abuts against the first inclined surface.

[0018] In one embodiment, the fixing seat assembly has a first mating portion; the connecting seat has a second mating portion, the first mating portion being used to engage and abut with the second mating portion so that the connecting seat and the fixing seat assembly are fixed relative to each other in the circumferential direction of the mobile device bracket.

[0019] In one embodiment, the fixing seat assembly has an insertion portion, the connecting seat has a groove, the slot is recessed on the side wall of the groove, the engaging portion has a first guide surface, and the side wall of the groove has a second guide surface. When the insertion portion is inserted into the groove, the first guide surface and the second guide surface abut against each other and slide relative to each other, so that the engaging portion slides relative to the groove toward the unlocking direction.

[0020] The mobile device holder of this application can be unlocked in two ways. The first way is by manually sliding the elastic component, causing its locking part to slide out of the slot in the unlocking direction. The second way is by rotating the unlocking component; the rotation of the unlocking component is converted into sliding of the elastic component in the unlocking direction, thus also allowing the locking part of the elastic component to slide out of the slot. This mobile device holder provides two unlocking methods, allowing users to choose according to their preferences. When the field of vision is obstructed, multiple unlocking methods also make it easier for users to find the unlocking component, enabling faster unlocking and improving the user experience.

Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on the embodiments of this application.

[0043] This application provides a mobile device holder for securing a mobile device to a carrier. The mobile device can be a mobile phone, tablet, e-reader, or other electronic mobile device. Specifically, in one embodiment, the mobile device holder can be used to secure a mobile phone to a vehicle body.

[0044] like Figure 1 As shown, the mobile device bracket includes a first connecting component 10 and a second connecting component 20. One of the first connecting component 10 and the second connecting component 20 is used to connect to the mobile device end, and the other is used to connect to the carrier end. The connection can be direct or indirect. For example, in one embodiment, the first connecting component 10 is indirectly connected to the mobile device end, and the first connecting component 10 is used to directly connect to the mobile device mounting bracket, which is used to mount the mobile device end. The connection method between the first connecting component 10 and the mobile device mounting bracket is not limited.

[0045] In one embodiment, the first connecting assembly 10 includes a fixed base assembly 11, a rotation unlocking assembly 12, and an elastic assembly 13, wherein the rotation unlocking assembly 12 is mounted on the fixed base assembly 11. In one embodiment, the rotation unlocking assembly 12 has a universal ball head 121 for connecting to a ball joint groove of a mobile device mounting bracket. In another embodiment, as... Figure 2 As shown, the rotation unlocking assembly 12 has a first threaded portion 122, which is used to connect with a second threaded portion of the mobile device mounting bracket. Generally, the connection between the first connecting assembly 10 and the mobile device mounting bracket adopts a connection method in which the two can rotate relative to each other, so that the user can adjust the rotation of the two to adjust the angle of the mobile device.

[0046] like Figure 3-5As shown, the mounting bracket 11 has a first mating portion 111. One of the rotation unlocking component 12 and the second connecting component 20 is used to connect to the mobile device end, and the other is used to connect to the carrier end. For example, the second connecting component 20 may include a hook that can be hooked onto the air vent of the vehicle body. Only a portion of the structure of the second connecting component 20 is shown in the accompanying drawings. The second connecting component 20 includes a connecting seat 21, which has a second mating portion 211. The first mating portion 111 is used to axially engage with the second mating portion 211 to fix the connecting seat 21 and the mounting bracket 11 relative to each other in the circumferential direction of the mobile device bracket, i.e., the connecting seat 21 and the mounting bracket 11 cannot rotate relative to each other along the central axis of the mobile device bracket.

[0047] The first mating part 112 has a ring array structure, and the second mating part 211 has a ring array structure that complements the first mating part 112, so that the first mating part 112 can abut against the second mating part 211 at multiple angles. That is, the first mating part 112 and the second mating part 211 can still abut against each other after rotating at some angles along the rotation axis, and after abutting, the connecting seat 21 and the fixing seat assembly 11 are relatively fixed relative to each other in the circumferential direction of the mobile device bracket. The ring array structure specifically refers to multiple structural units arranged along the circumferential direction. For example, it can be multiple conical structures arranged sequentially along the circumferential direction. The ring array structure does not necessarily form a closed circle; it can also refer to a circle with a gap. That is, the ring array structure can be a closed shape or a non-closed shape. In order to complement the second mating part 211, the first mating part 112 has a recess between adjacent structural units in the ring array structure. The protrusion of the ring array structure is embedded in the recess of the complementary ring array structure, so that the first mating part 112 and the second mating part 211 are relatively fixed relative to each other in the circumferential direction when they are engaged. When the protrusion of the annular array structure disengages from the recess of the complementary annular array structure, that is, when the first mating part 112 is not engaged with the second mating part 211 along the axial direction, the user can adjust the contact angle between the first mating part 112 and the second mating part 211. As long as one of the first and second mating parts has an annular array structure and the other has a contact structure that engages with the annular array structure, multi-angle contact can be achieved; and the annular array structure is a preferred structure for adjustable contact angles, but not the only structure.

[0048] In one embodiment, one of the first mating part 111 and the second mating part 211 is an arc-shaped first rack structure, and the other is an annular second rack structure. The first rack structure is used to mesh with the second rack structure to fix the connecting seat 21 and the fixing seat assembly 11 relative to each other in the circumferential direction of the mobile device bracket. That is, in this embodiment, one annular array structure is an arc-shaped first rack structure, and the other annular array structure is an annular second rack structure. By setting one of the first mating part 111 and the second mating part 211 as an arc-shaped rack and the other as an annular rack, the two mating parts of the first connecting assembly 10 and the second connecting assembly 20 can mesh with each other at multiple angles when rotating relative to each other along the central axis of the mobile device bracket, making it more free and smooth for the user to connect the two, and improving the user experience.

[0049] In one embodiment, the first connecting assembly 10 further includes a first magnetic member 14, which is fixed to the fixing base assembly 11. The second connecting assembly 20 further includes a second magnetic member 22; the second magnetic member 22 is fixed to the connecting base 21, and the first magnetic member 14 is used for magnetic adsorption connection with the second magnetic member 22.

[0050] In this design, one of the first magnetic attractor 14 and the second magnetic attractor 22 is a magnet, while the other can be a magnet or iron, allowing the first magnetic attractor 14 and the second magnetic attractor 22 to be magnetically attracted together. By setting the first connecting component 10 and the second connecting component 20 to be magnetically attracted together, they can automatically attract each other when they are close together, making the connection between the first connecting component 10 and the second connecting component 20 faster and smoother. Furthermore, the magnetic attraction between the first connecting component 10 and the second connecting component 20 makes the connection tighter, preventing gaps and loosening between the first rack structure and the second rack structure, further ensuring the tight fit between the first mating part 111 and the second mating part 211.

[0051] Please refer to Figure 3-5 As shown, the elastic component 13 has a latching portion 131, and the elastic component 13 is slidably connected to the fixing base assembly 11. The connecting base 21 has a latching groove 212. The reciprocating sliding of the elastic component 13 can switch the locked and unlocked states of the mobile device bracket. Specifically, the elastic component 13 reciprocates linearly along the radial direction of the mobile device bracket. Figure 1-4 As shown, Figure 1-4 In the locked state of the mobile device bracket, the latching part 131 engages with the slot 212, and the slot 212 limits the latching part 131 in the axial direction of the mobile device bracket, so that the first connecting component 10 and the second connecting component 20 are not easily separated. Figure 6-8 As shown, Figure 6-8In the unlocked state of the mobile device bracket, the latching part 131 slides out of the slot 212 along the unlocking direction under the action of external force. The unlocking direction is parallel to the radial direction of the mobile device bracket. The latching part 131 and the slot 212 are completely offset in the radial direction, so that the first connecting component 10 and the second connecting component 20 can be separated in the circumferential direction of the mobile device bracket. In the unlocked state, the elastic component 13 has an elastic restoring force that allows the latching part 131 to slide in the opposite direction of the unlocking direction. When unlocking is required, manually press the elastic component 13 in the unlocking direction to overcome the elastic restoring force of the elastic component 13 and make the locking part 131 slide out of the slot 212 to achieve the unlocked state. When locking is required, bring the first connecting component 10 and the second connecting component 20 close together so that the first magnetic suction member 14 and the second magnetic suction member 22 are magnetically attracted. At the same time, the first mating part 111 and the second mating part 211 engage. At this time, the locking part 131 reaches the outside of the slot 212 in the unlocked state. Under the action of the elastic restoring force, the locking part 131 moves into the slot 212 to lock in the slot 212.

[0052] In this embodiment, the first connecting component 10 and the second connecting component 20 can not only be magnetically connected by the first magnetic suction member 14 and the second magnetic suction member 22, but also be relatively fixed in the circumferential direction by the first mating part 111 and the second mating part 211, ensuring that the first connecting component 10 and the second connecting component 20 will not rotate relative to each other in the circumferential direction. Furthermore, by providing the elastic component 13 and the slot 212, when the elastic component 13 and the slot 212 are engaged, the first connecting component 10 and the second connecting component 20 are relatively locked, further preventing the first connecting component 10 and the second connecting component 20 from disengaging and enhancing the reliability of the mobile device bracket. The first connecting component 10 and the second connecting component 20 can be slidably separated from the elastic component 13 and the slot 212 by external force, allowing the first connecting component 10 and the second connecting component 20 to be unlocked. When accidental sliding occurs between the elastic component 13 and the slot 212, the elastic restoring force of the elastic component 13 ensures that the elastic component 13 remains engaged with the slot 212 in the locked state, preventing the first connecting component 10 and the second connecting component 20 from unlocking unexpectedly.

[0053] When the angle of the mobile device held in this application needs to be adjusted, the elastic component 13 is unlocked from the slot 212, and the abutment angles of the first mating part 112 and the second mating part 211 are adjusted. After adjusting the abutment angle, the elastic component 13 and the slot 212 are locked. This method of adjustment is more labor-saving for the user and does not rely on the interaction friction between the connecting parts, thus solving the problem of difficult and laborious adjustment when adjusting the angle of the mobile device. Existing solutions adjust by rotating with friction, which is not stable in the circumferential direction between the connecting parts during use. However, the locking of the elastic component 13 and the slot 212 of the mobile device holder of this application can ensure that the first mating part 112 and the second mating part 211 are relatively fixed in the circumferential direction when locked, preventing them from rotating during use and preventing the positioning angle of the mobile device holder from changing when locked.

[0054] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in one embodiment, the fixing seat assembly 11 has an insertion portion 112, the connecting seat 21 has a groove 213, the slot 212 is recessed in the side wall of the groove 213, the engaging portion 131 has a first guide surface 1311, and the side wall of the groove 213 has a second guide surface 2131. When the insertion portion 112 is inserted into the groove 213, the first guide surface 1311 and the second guide surface 2131 abut against each other and slide relative to each other, so that the engaging portion 131 slides relative to the groove 213 toward the unlocking direction.

[0055] Therefore, when the first connecting component 10 and the second connecting component 20 are close together, the insertion part 112 is inserted into the groove 213. The relative sliding of the second guide surface 2131 and the first guide surface 1311 allows the locking part 131 to overcome the elastic restoring force of the elastic component 13 and slide in the unlocking direction, so that the insertion part 112 and the groove 213 can fit tightly. When the locking part 131 slides along the second guide surface 2131 to the outside of the slot 212, the abutting force of the groove 213 on the locking part 131 disappears instantly. The locking part 131 can slide in the opposite direction of the unlocking direction under the elastic force of the elastic component 13 to lock into the slot 212. Thus, the first connecting component 10 and the second connecting component 20 can be quickly assembled. Simply bring the first connecting component 10 and the second connecting component 20 close together and insert the insertion part 112 into the groove 213 to lock the mobile device bracket. When unlocking is required, use external force to press the elastic component 13 and move the protrusion out of the groove 213.

[0056] In one embodiment, at least a portion of the latching part 131 is arc-shaped, and at least a portion of the slot 212 is annular. Thus, the latching part 131 can engage with the slot 212 after rotating at any angle along its axis. Furthermore, the first guide surface 1311 is arc-shaped, the second guide surface 2131 is annular, and the radial cross-section of the groove 213 is circular. In the unlocked state, the latching part 131 and the insertion part 112 are approximately joined to form a structure that matches the groove 213. All of these designs allow the first connecting component 10 and the second connecting component 20 to be directly connected after approaching each other at any angle, making assembly by the user faster.

[0057] In one embodiment, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, one of the first magnetic suction member 14 and the second magnetic suction member 22 is disposed on the side of the insertion part 112 facing the groove 213, and the other is disposed on the bottom wall of the groove 213 facing the insertion part 112. Thus, when the insertion part 112 approaches the groove 213, under the action of the first magnetic suction member 14 and the second magnetic suction member 22, the insertion part 112 can be quickly inserted into the groove 213, and it is convenient for the relative sliding between the first guide surface 1311 and the second guide surface 2131, so that the user can connect the first connecting component 10 and the second connecting component 20 more easily and quickly.

[0058] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in one embodiment, the elastic component 13 includes a slider 132 and a second elastic component 133. The slider 132 has a snap-fit ​​portion 131, and the fixing base assembly 11 has a groove 113. The slider 132 is slidably connected to the groove 113, and both ends of the second elastic component 133 are respectively connected to the inner walls of the slider 132 and the groove 113. A first guide portion may be provided on the groove wall of the groove 113, and a second guide portion may be provided on the slider 132. The first and second guide portions cooperate to enable the slider 132 to slide linearly back and forth between the groove 113.

[0059] In one embodiment, the slider 132 also has a pressing portion 1321, on which a latching portion 131 protrudes, and one end of the pressing portion 1321 is connected to an elastic member. A portion of the pressing portion 1321 protrudes radially from the outer wall of the fixing base assembly 11. Therefore, when the first connecting assembly 10 and the second connecting assembly 20 are in the locked state, the latching portion 131 engages with the slot 212, making it difficult for the user to directly drive the latching portion 131 to unlock. The user can unlock the device using the pressing portion 1321 protruding from the outer wall of the fixing base assembly 11, allowing for quick and easy unlocking of the mobile device holder.

[0060] In one embodiment, there are two slide grooves 113 and two elastic components 13. The two slide grooves 113 are arranged opposite to each other, and the two elastic components 13 are respectively assembled in different slide grooves 113. The unlocking directions of the two elastic components 13 are opposite. Since the unlocking directions of the two elastic components 13 are opposite, that is, the elastic restoring forces of the two elastic components 13 are opposite, the locking portions 131 of the two elastic components 13 abut against the locking groove 212 in opposite directions, further ensuring the reliability of the connection between the locking portions 131 and the locking groove 212.

[0061] The above describes the locking method and one unlocking method of the first connecting component 10 and the second connecting component 20 of the mobile device holder of this application. The mobile device holder of this application also has another unlocking method, which is described below.

[0062] The rotating unlocking component 12 is rotatably connected to the fixed base component 11. The rotation of the rotating unlocking component 12 can drive the elastic component 13 to slide in the unlocking direction. That is, the rotation of the rotating unlocking component 12 can be converted into the sliding of the elastic component 13 in the unlocking direction. Therefore, the user can rotate the rotating unlocking component 12 to make the elastic component 13 slide in the unlocking direction to unlock.

[0063] The mobile device holder of this application can be unlocked in two ways. The first way is by manually sliding the elastic component 13, causing the locking portion 131 of the elastic component 13 to slide out of the slot 212 in the unlocking direction. The second way is by rotating the unlocking component 12. The rotation of the unlocking component 12 is converted into sliding of the elastic component 13 in the unlocking direction, thus also allowing the locking portion 131 of the elastic component 13 to slide out of the slot 212. This mobile device holder provides two unlocking methods, allowing users to choose the method according to their preferences. When the view is obstructed by the mobile device, multiple unlocking methods also make it easier for users to find the unlocking component, enabling faster unlocking and improving the user experience.

[0064] like Figure 9 As shown, in one embodiment, the rotation unlocking assembly 12 includes a swing member 123 and a connector 124. Both the swing member 123 and the connector 124 are rotatably connected to the fixed base assembly 11. The connector 124 is used to connect to the mobile device end or the carrier end, that is, the connector has a ball head 121 or a first threaded part 122.

[0065] Specifically, the fixing seat assembly 11 has a first fixing seat 114 and a second fixing seat 115. The first fixing seat 114 has a first mating part 111 and an insertion part 112 on the side facing the second connecting assembly 20. The side of the first fixing seat 114 away from the second connecting assembly 20 has a sliding groove 113, wherein the pressing part 1321 is slidably connected to the sliding groove 113. The side wall of the insertion part 112 is provided with a clearance groove 1121 communicating with the sliding groove 113. At least a portion of the snap-fit ​​part 131 is located in the clearance groove 112. Inside 1, one end of the clearance groove 1121 along the axial direction of the mobile device bracket is connected to the slide groove 113, and the other end has a first opening. The end of the clearance groove 1121 along the radial direction of the mobile device bracket has a second opening. The first opening and the second opening are both designed to facilitate the sliding and locking of the locking part 131. The first opening facilitates the first guide surface 1311 of the locking part 131 to abut against the second guide surface 2131, and the second opening facilitates the locking part 131 to be locked into the slot 212.

[0066] like Figure 10 As shown, the swing member 123 is disposed on the sliding member 132, and the swing member 123 is rotatably connected to the first fixed base 114. Figure 9 As shown, the second fixing seat 115 is fastened to the side of the first fixing seat 114 away from the second connecting assembly 20 and is fixedly connected to the first fixing seat 114. Thus, the swing member 123 and part of the elastic assembly 13 are located between the first fixing seat 114 and the second fixing seat 115. The connecting member 124 is connected to the side of the second fixing seat 115 away from the first fixing seat 114.

[0067] In one embodiment, the swing member 123 and the connecting member 124 are integrally formed or fixedly connected, and the swing member 123 rotates with the connecting member 124; or, in one embodiment, such as Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown, the connector 124 has a pushing portion 1241, and the swing member 123 has a driven portion 1231. The pushing portion 1241 of the connector 124 passes through the second fixed seat 115, such that the pushing portion 1241 and the swing member 123 at least partially overlap in the axial direction of the first connecting assembly 10. Figure 10 and Figure 12As shown, when the user rotates the connector 124, the rotation of the pushing part 1241 drives the driven part 1231 to rotate, and the swinging part 123 swings, causing the elastic component 13 to slide in the unlocking direction. Thus, the rotation of the connector 124 located outside the fixed base assembly 11 can be converted into the rotation of the swinging part 123 located inside the fixed base assembly 11, and the rotation of the swinging part 123 can be converted into the linear motion of the elastic component 13 (in the unlocking direction). By dividing the fixed base assembly 11 into two parts, the first fixed base 114 and the second fixed base 115, and the rotation unlocking assembly 12 into the connector 124 and the swinging part 123, assembly between the various parts is facilitated.

[0068] like Figure 10 and Figure 12 As shown, in one embodiment, the clockwise rotation of the swing member 123 and / or the counterclockwise rotation of the swing member 123 can both drive the elastic component 13 to slide in the unlocking direction. In one embodiment, the number of driven parts 1231 is at least two, and the pushing part 1241 is located between two adjacent driven parts 1231. In the locked state, as... Figure 10 As shown, the driving part 1241 is spaced apart from the two adjacent driven parts 1231; as Figure 12 As shown, in the unlocked state, the pushing part 1241 abuts against either of the two adjacent driven parts 1231. Therefore, in the locked state, the pushing part 1241 does not abut against the driven part 1231, and the pushing part 1241 does not exert force on the swing member 123; thus, the swing member does not exert force on the elastic component 13. When unlocking is required, rotating the connecting member 124 clockwise or counterclockwise causes the pushing part 1241 to rotate toward one of the two adjacent driven parts 1231 until the pushing part 1241 abuts against the driven part 1231. As the pushing part 1241 continues to rotate, the swing member 123 begins to rotate until it abuts against the elastic component 13 and drives the elastic component 13 to move in the unlocking direction.

[0069] By positioning the pusher 1241 between the two driven parts 1231, the user can unlock the elastic component 13 regardless of whether the connector 124 is rotated clockwise or counterclockwise. Furthermore, by spacing the pusher 1241 from the two adjacent driven parts 1231 in the locked state, the user's initial rotation of the connector 124 results in a free stroke, requiring a certain angle of rotation to drive the swinging member 123 to swing and unlock. This prevents accidental operation and reduces the risk of unintended unlocking. The user also needs to apply a certain torque to unlock, providing clear operational feedback and reducing unnecessary frictional contact, thus lowering component wear. In other embodiments, the number of driven parts 1231 may be at least one, with the pusher 1241 spaced apart from the adjacent driven parts 1231.

[0070] In one embodiment, such as Figure 10 and Figure 12 As shown, the elastic component 13 has an abutment portion 134. Specifically, the abutment portion 134 protrudes from the pressing portion 1321 on the side away from the second connecting component 20. The abutment portion 134 has a first abutment surface 1341, and the swing member 123 has a second abutment surface 1232. The second abutment surface 1232 is used to at least partially abut against the first abutment surface 1341, so that the rotation of the second abutment surface 1232 can drive the abutment portion 134 to slide in the unlocking direction. The two abutment surfaces can be point contact, line contact, partial contact, or full contact. In other embodiments, the rotation of the swing member 123 is converted into linear motion of the elastic component 13, and is not limited to the manner of this embodiment. When the driving force of the user on the rotation of the connector 124 disappears, the elastic component 13 can move in the opposite direction of the unlocking direction under the action of its elastic restoring force, so that the abutment part 134 moves in the opposite direction of the unlocking direction, thereby converting the linear motion of the abutment part 134 into the rotation of the swing member 123, so that the swing member 123 resets.

[0071] Furthermore, to ensure that the elastic component 13 moves in the unlocking direction whether the swinging part rotates clockwise or counterclockwise, each elastic component 13 has two abutment portions 134. The swinging member 123 is located between the two abutment portions 134 of the elastic component 13. The swinging member 123 has two second abutment surfaces 1232, which are respectively used to abut against the first abutment surfaces 1341 of different abutment portions 134.

[0072] like Figure 3 and Figure 13 As shown, in one embodiment, the connector 124 of the rotation unlocking assembly 12 is floatingly connected to the fixed base assembly 11, that is, the connector 124 of the rotation unlocking assembly 12 is floatingly connected to the second fixed base 115, so that the connector 124 of the rotation unlocking assembly 12 can move away from or towards the fixed base assembly 11. For example Figure 3 As shown, Figure 3 For example, the extreme position of the movement of the connector 124 near the fixed base assembly 11, such as Figure 13 As shown, Figure 13 The limit position of the movement of the connector 124 away from the fixed base assembly 11 shows that the connector 124 of the rotating unlocking assembly 12 is floatingly connected to the fixed base assembly 11.

[0073] Specifically, the connecting member 124 of the rotary unlocking assembly 12 has a through hole 1242 extending along its axial direction. The fixing base assembly 11 has a protrusion 1151, and a limiting step 1152 is provided on the protrusion 1151. The limiting step 1152 has a limiting surface 1153 perpendicular to the axial direction of the protrusion 1151. The limiting surface 1153 is used to limit the floating of the connecting member 124 of the rotary unlocking assembly 12 in a direction away from the fixing base assembly 11, so as to prevent the connecting member 124 of the rotary unlocking assembly 12 from disengaging from the fixing base assembly 11. The protrusion 1151 is disposed in the through hole 1242. The first connecting assembly 10 also includes a first elastic member 15. The two ends of the first elastic member 15 are respectively connected to the fixing base assembly 11 and the connecting member 124 of the rotary unlocking assembly 12, that is, the first elastic member 15 connects the second fixing base 115 and the connecting member 124 of the rotary unlocking assembly 12. When the connector 124 is in the unlocked state, i.e., when the connector 124 moves away from the second fixed seat 115 under the action of the user's driving force, the first elastic member 15 has an elastic restoring force that enables the connector 124 of the rotating unlocking assembly 12 to move toward the fixed seat assembly 11, so as to ensure that when the user's driving force on the connector 124 disappears, the connector 124 can move toward the fixed seat assembly 11 to reset under the action of the elastic restoring force of the first elastic member.

[0074] like Figure 11 and Figure 14 As shown, the connector 124 has a first limiting portion 1243, and the fixing seat assembly 11 has a second limiting portion 1154. Both the first limiting portion 1243 and the second limiting portion 1154 are arc-shaped or annular. The first limiting portion 1243 and the second limiting portion 1154 can also have a toothed structure. For example... Figure 15 As shown, in the locked state, the first limiting part 1243 and the second limiting part 1154 are engaged. This engagement includes meshing, misalignment of the two protrusions, and engagement between the protrusion and the recess. Therefore, in the locked state, if the user does not apply force to the connector 124, the engagement of the first limiting part 1243 and the second limiting part 1154 prevents relative rotation between the connector 124 and the fixing seat assembly 11, thus preventing accidental rotation of the connector 124 and unlocking of the elastic component 13. However, when the user applies force to the connector 124, such as... Figure 16 As shown, in the unlocked state, the first limiting part 1243 and the second limiting part 1154 disengage under the user's driving force and rotate relative to the locked state.

[0075] Furthermore, the second limiting portion 1154 has a plurality of recessed portions, and the recessed portions are formed by opposing first mating surfaces 11541 and second mating surfaces 11542. At least one of the first mating surfaces 11541 and second mating surfaces 11542 is a first inclined surface, and the limiting groove 11543 is recessed in the first inclined surface. In one embodiment, the first mating surfaces 11541 and second mating surfaces 11542 are connected by the limiting groove 11543, and the limiting groove 11543 is recessed in the first mating surfaces 11541 and the second mating surfaces 11542.

[0076] The first limiting part 1243 has a plurality of protruding portions, which are formed by opposing third mating surfaces 12431 and fourth mating surfaces 12432. At least one of the third mating surfaces 12431 and fourth mating surfaces 12432 is a second inclined surface. The protrusion 12433 protrudes from the second inclined surface. In one embodiment, the third mating surfaces 12431 and fourth mating surfaces 12432 are connected by the protrusion 12433, which protrudes from the third mating surfaces 12431 and fourth mating surfaces 12432.

[0077] The end of the protrusion 12433 is provided with a sliding surface, at least part of which is a third inclined surface or curved surface that drives the first inclined surface; the sliding surface is used to cooperate with the first inclined surface so that the protrusion 12433 can fall back into the limiting groove 11543;

[0078] like Figure 15 As shown, in the locked state, the protrusion 12433 is embedded in the limiting groove 11543, the first mating surface 11541 and the third mating surface 12431 abut, and the second mating surface 11542 and the fourth mating surface 12432 abut, that is, the first limiting part 1243 and the second limiting part 1154 are in a fitted state. Figure 16 As shown, in the unlocked state, the protrusion 12433 disengages from the limiting groove 11543 and the two are misaligned in the circumferential direction. The protrusion 12433 abuts against the first mating surface. That is, in the unlocked state, the first limiting part 1243 and the second limiting part 1154 rotate relative to the locked state.

[0079] By setting the protrusion 12433 and the limiting groove 11543, when the connector 124 is locked, the user cannot rotate the connector 124 by directly applying torque, thus preventing accidental unlocking of the connector 124. When unlocking is required, such as... Figure 17 As shown, the connector 124 needs to be pulled away from the fixed base assembly 11 first, so that the protrusion 12433 disengages from the limiting groove 11543. At this time, the protrusion 12433 is approximately located between the first mating surface 11541 and the second mating surface 11542. Only after the protrusion 12433 disengages from the limiting groove 11543 can the user rotate the connector 124, so that the connector 124... Figure 17 Move the position to Figure 16 The position of the first limiting part 1243 and the second limiting part 1154 of this application can satisfy the requirement that the connecting member 124 can rotate clockwise or counterclockwise, thereby ensuring that the user does not need to remember the rotation direction for unlocking and improving the unlocking speed.

[0080] Of course, in other embodiments, the protrusion 12433 and the limiting groove 11543 may not be provided. Instead, a first mating surface 11541 and a second mating surface 11542 connected to each other, as well as a third mating surface 12431 and a fourth mating surface 12432 connected to each other, can be provided. Thus, even if the connector 124 is not pulled away from the fixed component first, a large torque can be applied directly to the connector 124, which can cause the first limiting part 1243 and the second limiting part 1154 to rotate relative to each other. At this time, during rotation, the first mating surface 11541 and the third mating surface 12431 remain in contact and slide relative to each other, or the second mating surface 11542 and the fourth mating surface 12432 remain in contact and slide relative to each other.

[0081] Regardless of whether the protrusion 12433 and the limiting groove 11543 are provided, it can be seen that when the first limiting part 1243 and the second limiting part 1154 rotate relative to the locked state, the connector 124 will definitely float away from the second fixed seat 115. Therefore, when the user's driving force disappears, the connector 124 will move towards the second fixed seat 115 under the action of the elastic restoring force of the first elastic member 15, so that the first limiting part 1243 and the second limiting part 1154 abut against each other. Under the action of the elastic restoring force of the first elastic member 15, the first limiting part 1243 and the second limiting part 1154 will return to the fitted state under the guidance of the first mating surface 11541 or the second mating surface 11542. The user does not need to manually rotate the connector 124 to reset after unlocking, but the connector 124 is automatically reset by the elastic restoring force of the first elastic member 15, which reduces the user's operation steps and improves the user experience.
