[0021] In order to clarify the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without any creative work fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0022] The following disclosure provides many different embodiments or examples for realizing different configurations of the present invention. Hereinafter, in order to simplify the disclosure of the present invention, specific components and installations will be described. Of course, these are merely illustrative and do not limit the present invention. Furthermore, the present invention may repeat reference numerals and / or letters in different examples. Such repetition is for the sake of brevity and clarity, and does not in itself indicate a relationship between the various embodiments and / or installations discussed.

[0023] For convenience of description, spatially relative terms may be used in the text to describe the relative position or movement of one element or feature, as illustrated in the figures, to another element or feature.

Thus, the exemplary term "below" can include orientations of above and below. The device may be otherwise oriented (rotated 90 degrees or at other orientations), and the spatially relative descriptors used herein will be interpreted accordingly.

[0024] To solve the technical problems of related technologies, such as the lack of versatility and the unstable center of gravity of electronic devices that make them prone to tipping over and falling off, this invention provides an electronic device charging stand that uses rotatable clamping arms, which are highly versatile. When an electronic device is placed in the clamping space, the clamping arms are pushed down by gravity, causing the clamping arms on both sides to automatically contract, clamping the electronic device and providing support and limiting its position, thereby stably fixing the electronic device between the clamping arms. In addition, the electronic device and the charging base are at a predetermined angle, providing a stable center of gravity and preventing it from tipping over.

[0025] 1 to 3, in some exemplary embodiments, the electronic device charging stand is used for electronic device A to support and charge electronic device A, thereby reducing the desktop space occupied by electronic device A and improving the user experience, where electronic device A is, for example, a portable computer, a mobile phone, a wearable device, etc.

[0026] The charging stand includes a charging base 1 and a clamping assembly 2. The clamping assembly 2 includes two clamping arms 21 rotatably attached to the charging base 1. There may be one or more clamping assemblies 2. Multiple clamping assemblies 2 are arranged in sequence along the charging base 1 to support multiple electronic devices A and form an assembly with multiple charging positions, enabling table storage and improving space utilization. The charging base 1 is electrically connected to the electronic devices A, and the functionality of a single charging stand can meet the charging needs of multiple electronic devices A on a table.

[0027] Two clamping arms 21 are arranged symmetrically, and a clamping space 22 is formed between the two clamping arms 21. When the electronic device A is placed in the clamping space 22, gravity presses down on the underside of the clamping arm 21, and the clamping arm 21 rotates relative to the charging base 1, causing the clamping arm 21 to abut against the side wall of the electronic device A in its thickness direction, forming a clamped state, supporting the electronic device A and restricting its movement, improving the stability of the electronic device A, and meeting the needs of the user.

[0028] There is a predetermined angle between the clamped electronic device A and the charging base 1, which is any value between 85° and 95°, so that the electronic device A receives a vertically downward force or a force close to vertical, making the center of gravity more stable and effectively preventing it from falling over.

[0029] 1 to 3, the clamping arm 21 has a first clamping body 211, a second clamping body 212, and a bending body 213, and the first clamping body 211 is connected to the second clamping body 212 by the bending body 213. Here, the bending body 213 is arc-shaped so as to be connected to the first clamping body 211 and the second clamping body 212.

[0030] When electronic device A is placed in clamping space 22, gravity pushes down first clamping body 211, and first clamping body 211 drives second clamping body 212 to rotate relative to charging base 1 using bending body 213, thereby abutting first clamping body 211 against charging base 1 and abutting second clamping body 212 against electronic device A, and second clamping bodies 212 on both sides clamp electronic device A, restricting its movement and preventing it from falling over.

[0031] Here, the length of the second clamping member 212 is greater than the length of the first clamping member 211, and the size of the first clamping member 211 only needs to be suited to the thickness of the electronic device A, so as to prevent the electronic device A from tilting too much when supported. The size of the second clamping member 212 may be slightly larger so as to be able to clamp the electronic device A. Alternatively, the first clamping member 211 and the second clamping member 212 may have a certain proportional relationship to ensure stable support, and the specifics thereof may be determined according to actual conditions.

[0032] The first clamping body 211, the second clamping body 212 and the bending body 213 are configured, for example, in an approximately L-shape to achieve clamping, and the first clamping body 211, the second clamping body 212 and the bending body 213 are integrally molded to improve the structural stability of the clamping arm 21.

[0033] There is a predetermined included angle between the first clamping body 211 and the second clamping body 212, which may be any value between 60° and 85°, for example, so that when the clamping arm 21 rotates relative to the charging base 1, the first clamping body 211 moves downward and the two second clamping bodies 212 move opposite each other, thereby changing the distance between the second clamping bodies 212 and reducing the opening end of the clamping space 22, ensuring that the second clamping body 212 can abut against the electronic device A. Both sides of the electronic device A are supported and pressed by the second clamping bodies 212, improving the stability of the electronic device A and preventing it from tipping over.

[0034] 1 to 3, the clamping arm 21 includes, for example, a pad layer 214 provided on the second clamping body 212 and in contact with the electronic device A. Here, the pad layer 214 is, for example, a silicone pad, which not only provides friction and support to the electronic device A, but also protects the electronic device A and prevents the second clamping body 212 from being too hard and damaging the electronic device A when clamping it.

[0035] In addition, the pad layer 214 may be one or more, and the multiple pad layers 214 may be uniformly distributed along the lateral direction of the second clamping body 212 so as to provide stable frictional force and supporting force to the electronic device A.

[0036] 1 to 3, in this embodiment, the clamping arm 21 further includes, for example, an elastic member 215 provided between the first clamping body 211 and the charging base 1. Here, the elastic member 215 is, for example, a spring having a certain degree of compressibility and resilience. When the electronic device A is not placed on the charging stand, the resilience of the elastic member 215 supports the first clamping body 211 upward, causing the first clamping body 211 to drive the bent body 213 to move the second clamping body 212, and the two second clamping bodies 212 move apart, changing the distance between them. This increases the opening end of the clamping space 22, making it easier for the user to place the electronic device A.

[0037] When electronic device A is placed on the charging stand, electronic device A presses down on the first clamping body 211, and due to the compressibility of the elastic member 215, the elastic member 215 is pressed by the first clamping body 211, and the second clamping body 212 moves in the opposite direction, thereby changing the distance between the second clamping body 212, making the opening end of the clamping space 22 smaller, and ensuring that the second clamping body 212 can abut against electronic device A.

[0038] In this embodiment, as shown in Figures 1 to 3, the clamping arm 21 includes, for example, an axis body 216, the bent body 213 is rotatably connected to the charging base 1 by the axis body 216, and the clamping arm 21 moves around the axis body 216.

[0039] In some examples, the charging base 1 is provided with a connection lug 11, the folding body 213 is provided with a retraction notch 2131, the connection lug 11 is located in the retraction notch 2131, and the shaft body 216 rotatably passes through the folding body 213 and the connection lug 11 to achieve a pivotal connection.

[0040] Here, the number of the retraction notches 2131 may be, for example, one or more, and the number of the connecting lugs 11 is the same as the number of the retraction notches 2131. In order to improve the stable rotation state, the retraction notches 2131 may be provided in two or more, specifically according to the actual situation.

[0041] In this embodiment, as shown in Figures 1 to 3, the charging base 1 is provided with at least one socket 12. The socket 12 may include, for example, a mobile phone charging socket 121, a portable computer charging socket 122, a power adapter charging socket 123, etc. It should be understood that the above is merely an illustrative example and does not limit the present invention. The type of the mobile phone charging socket 121 may be, for example, Type-C, Type-B, Lightning, etc., and the specific type should be determined according to actual circumstances.

[0042] Of course, other components such as a circuit board may be further provided inside the charging base 1 to realize the functions of the charging base 1. To achieve heat dissipation, through holes may be provided on both the circumferential direction and the upper side thereof, and the specifics thereof should be in accordance with the actual situation.

[0043] The present invention further provides an electronic device including the charging stand for the electronic device in the above embodiment, wherein when the electronic device is placed in the clamping space of the charging stand, the electronic device has a predetermined angle between the electronic device and the charging base of the charging stand, for example, any value between 85° and 95°.

[0044] The charging stand uses rotatable clamping arms, and when an electronic device is placed in the clamping space, its gravity presses down on the first clamp, causing the second clamps on both sides to automatically contract and clamp the electronic device, providing support and positioning. The padding directly contacts the electronic device, increasing friction and providing support, thereby more stably fixing the electronic device between the second clamps and ensuring the stability of the charging stand when the user directly pulls out the charging cable.
