[0029] The following, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments of the present invention, further illustrates the technical means adopted by the present invention to achieve its intended purpose.

[0030] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 This utility model proposes a thin folding bracket that can be mounted on an electronic device A. The thin folding bracket has a fixed plate 10, a supporting plate 20, and a folding member 30, and can selectively have an accommodating space 40.

[0031] Please refer to Figures 3 to 5 The fixing plate 10 is disposed on the electronic device A, and specifically, it may be parallel to the surface of the electronic device A and fixed to the surface. In the first embodiment, the fixing plate 10 has a body portion 11, a protrusion 12, a placement groove 13, and a bottom edge 14. In other embodiments, the fixing plate 10 may not have the protrusion 12 and the placement groove 13; in other words, it may be a square plate.

[0032] Please refer to Figure 5The body portion 11 has two first sides 111, which are parallel. Specifically, in the first embodiment, the body portion 11 is a rectangular sheet, and the two first sides 111 are the long sides of the rectangular sheet. The protrusion 12 extends outward from the short side of the rectangular sheet of the body portion 11 and has two second sides 121. The two second sides 121 are parallel, and one of the second sides 121 is aligned with one of the first sides 111. The placement groove 13 is adjacent to the body portion 11 and the protrusion 12. Specifically, the placement groove 13 is a groove formed by cutting off a corner of a rectangular sheet. The bottom edge 14 is one side of the fixing sheet 10. In the first embodiment, the fixing sheet 10 is one of the short sides, specifically the other side of the protrusion 12 that is perpendicular to the second side 121. When the thin folding bracket of this utility model is placed on electronic device A and stands upright on a plane, the bottom edge 14 of the fixing piece 10 can fit against the plane.

[0033] Please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 The support plate 20 is connected to the fixed plate 10 and can be parallel to the fixed plate 10. In the first embodiment, the support plate 20 has a first end 21, a second end 22, a connecting direction, and a bevel 23. In other embodiments, the support plate 20 may not have the bevel 23.

[0034] The first end 21 is connected to the fixed sheet 10, and the second end 22 is the other end of the supporting sheet 20 relative to the first end 21, and can selectively move away from the fixed sheet 10. The connecting line direction is from the second end 22 towards the first end 21. In the first embodiment, when the supporting sheet 20 is away from the fixed sheet 10, the fold line between the fixed sheet 10 and the supporting sheet 20 is perpendicular to the connecting line direction and located at the first end 21; in other words, the fixed sheet 10 and the supporting sheet 20 form an inverted V shape. When the supporting sheet 20 is close to the fixed sheet 10, the second end can fit against the fixed sheet 10, and at this time the supporting sheet 20 and the fixed sheet 10 are parallel.

[0035] The inclined side 23 extends in a straight line from the first end 21 to the second end 22, and the inclination direction of the inclined side 23 intersects the direction of the connecting line, thereby making the first end 21 of the supporting plate 20 wider than the second end 22 of the supporting plate 20. In the first embodiment, the inclined side 23 is adjacent to the first side 111 of the body portion 11 away from the protrusion 12 and adjacent to the placement groove 13. When the thin folding bracket of the present invention is disposed on the electronic device A and placed horizontally on the plane, the first side 111 of the body portion 11 away from the protrusion 12 and the inclined side 23 of the supporting plate 20 are in contact with the plane, and the electronic device A is tilted relative to the plane by means of the inclined side 23.

[0036] Please refer to Figures 3 to 5 and Figure 7 The folding member 30 has two ends connected to the second ends 22 of the fixing plate 10 and the supporting plate 20, respectively. Preferably, the two ends of the folding member 30 are the ends connecting the fixing plate 10 and the supporting plate 20, and are away from the joint of the fixing plate 10 and the supporting plate 20. The folding member 30 is foldable, and a fold line 31 is formed at the joint between the folding member 30 and the fixing plate 10, and the fold line 31 intersects with the bottom edge 14 of the fixing plate 10. Preferably, the angle between the fold line 31 of the folding member 30 and the bottom edge 14 of the fixing plate 10 is between 60 degrees and 120 degrees. In other embodiments, the angle between the fold line 31 of the folding member 30 and the bottom edge 14 of the fixing plate 10 is not limited to this.

[0037] In the first embodiment, the folding member 30 and the fixing plate 10 are integrally formed, and one end of the folding member 30 is attached to the side of the supporting plate 20 near the fixing plate 10, while the other end of the folding member 30 is connected to the placement groove 13 of the fixing plate 10. Specifically, the folding member 30 is connected to the end of the fixing plate 10 and to the second side 121 of the protrusion 12 adjacent to the placement groove 13. The folding member 30 can be selectively disposed in the placement groove 13, thereby reducing the thickness of the thin folding bracket of this invention. When the folding member 30 is disposed in the placement groove 13, one edge of the folding member 30 is aligned with the first side 111 of the body portion 11 away from the protrusion 12.

[0038] Specifically, the folding piece 30 and the fixed piece 10 can be considered as a rectangular piece being cut from one long side to the other, without cutting to the other long side of the rectangular piece, and the cut is made near the bottom edge 14 of the fixed piece 10. At this point, the rectangular piece can be divided into two parts, and a fold line 31 is formed by connecting the innermost endpoint of the tangent to the adjacent bottom edge 14. The portion of the cut rectangular piece near the bottom edge 14 can swing relative to the other portion towards both sides of the rectangular piece along the fold line 31. The swingable portion is the folding piece 30, and the other portion is the fixed piece 10. The fold line 31 is not perpendicular to the bottom edge 14, and the angle of inclination corresponds to the angle of the hypotenuse 23. In the first embodiment, the folding member 30 and the fixing piece 10 are integrally formed, and the other end is attached to the supporting piece 20. In other embodiments, the folding member 30 and the fixing piece 10 may not be integrally formed, but rather both ends are attached or bonded to the fixing piece 10 and the supporting piece 20 respectively, or one end of the folding member 30 is attached or bonded to the fixing piece 10, and the other end of the folding member 30 is detachably attached or bonded to the supporting piece 20.

[0039] Please refer to Figures 3 to 5 and Figure 7In the first embodiment, the folding member 30 has a bending portion 32 and a fitting portion 33. One end of the bending portion 32 is connected to the fixing plate 10 and is bendable. In the first embodiment, the bending portion 32 and the fixing plate 10 are integrally formed. The bending portion 32 has a first segment 321, a second segment 322, a first magnetic element 323, and a second magnetic element 324. The first segment 321 is connected to the fixing plate 10, the second segment 322 is connected to the first segment 321, and the first segment 321 and the second segment 322 themselves can have high rigidity and are not easy to bend. In other words, only the connection between the first segment 321 and the fixing plate 10 and the connection between the first segment 321 and the second segment 322 are bendable. The first magnetic element 323 is disposed in the first segment 321 of the bending portion 32, and the second magnetic element 324 is disposed in the second segment 322 of the bending portion 32.

[0040] The two ends of the fitting portion 33 are respectively connected to the support sheet 20 and the bending portion 32, and it has a third segment 331, a fourth segment 332, and a second magnetic element 324. The third segment 331 is fitted to the second segment 322 of the bending portion 32, and the two ends of the fourth segment 332 are respectively connected to the support sheet 20 and the third segment 331. The fitting portion 33 as a whole can have high rigidity and is not easy to bend. In other words, only the connection between the fourth segment 332 and the support sheet 20 is bendable, while the connection between the third segment 331 and the fourth segment 332 is not bendable. When the support sheet 20 moves away from the fixed sheet 10, the second segment 322 folds towards the first segment 321, so that the first segment 321, the second segment 322, and the third segment 331 overlap each other, and the first magnetic element 323 and the second magnetic element 324 attract each other to maintain the above-mentioned overlapping state. In this way, the folding member 30 is fixed and the support sheet 20 is kept away from the fixed sheet 10.

[0041] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The accommodating space 40 is disposed in the fixed sheet 10 and is connected to the outside world. It is used to accommodate a card. Specifically, the opening of the accommodating space 40 is located at one end of the fixed sheet 10 connected to the supporting sheet 20.

[0042] Please refer to Figure 8 The technical features of the second embodiment of this utility model are similar to those of the first embodiment, except that in the second embodiment, the fold lines and connecting lines of the fixed plate 10A and the supporting plate 20A intersect, so that one end of the second end 22 of the supporting plate 20A has the farthest distance from the fixed plate 10A. Furthermore, in the second embodiment, the supporting plate 20A does not have a hypotenuse 23.

[0043] Please refer to Figure 9The technical features of the third embodiment of this utility model are similar to those of the first embodiment, except that in the third embodiment, the fixing plate 10B also has a support portion 15, which has a third side 151. The third side 151 is connected to one of the first sides 111 in a straight line. Specifically, in this embodiment, the third side 151 of the support portion 15 and one of the second sides 121 of the protrusion 12 are respectively connected to the two first sides 111 in a straight line, and the placement groove 13 is formed between the support portion 15 and the protrusion 12. Thus, when the support plate 20 is away from the fixing plate 10B, the support plate 20, the protrusion 12 of the fixing plate 10B, and the support portion 15 can be disposed on a plane, so that the thin folding bracket of this utility model can stand upright on the plane.

[0044] In use, the present invention requires the fixing plate 10 to be first placed on the electronic device A. When the supporting plate 20 approaches and adheres to the fixing plate 10, the folding member 30 is placed in the placement groove 13 of the fixing plate 10, and the fixing plate 10, the supporting plate 20, and the folding member 30 are all stacked parallel to each other on the surface of the electronic device A and are thin. Then, the user can pull one end of the supporting plate 20 away from the fixing plate 10. At this time, the bent portion 32 of the folding member 30 will bend relative to the fixing plate 10, and the adhering portion 33 of the folding member 30 will bend relative to the supporting plate 20. The second segment 322 of the bent portion 32 folds towards the first segment 321, so that the first segment 321 of the bent portion 32, the second segment 322 of the bent portion 32, and the third segment 331 of the adhering portion 33 overlap each other, and the first magnetic member 323 and the second magnetic member 324 attract each other. The folding member 30 keeps the support piece 20 away from the fixed piece 10, and makes the support piece 20, the fixed piece 10 and the folding member 30 form a triangle, and supports the electronic device A.

[0045] The advantage of this utility model is that by setting the fold line 31 formed at the junction of the folding member 30 and the fixed plate 10 to intersect with the bottom edge 14 of the fixed plate 10, the moving direction of the folding member 30 is towards the side of the supporting plate 20, rather than towards the junction of the fixed plate 10 and the supporting plate 20, thereby reducing the size of the folding member 30 on the fixed plate 10 and the supporting plate 20, and also reducing the thickness of the thin folding bracket.

[0046] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any way. Although the present utility model has been disclosed above with reference to a preferred embodiment, it is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any person skilled in the art can make some modifications or alterations to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments without departing from the scope of the present utility model's technical solution. Any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the content of the present utility model's technical solution shall still fall within the scope of the present utility model's technical solution.
