[0010] Please refer to Figures 1 to 11. As shown in FIGS. 1 to 11, a smartphone holder according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a base 1, a control member 2, a clamping member 3, an elastic member 4, and a cover 5. As shown in FIGS.
[0011] A first storage chamber 10, a second storage chamber 11, and a third storage chamber 12 are arranged in the horizontal axis direction inside the base 1. The first storage chamber 10 is located in the center of the base 1. The second storage chamber 11 is located above the first storage chamber 10. The third storage chamber 12 is located below the first storage chamber 10. The first storage chamber 10 has a position control hole 100 that penetrates the bottom side of the base 1 and a ratchet wheel 13 that is pivotally attached to the center. The ratchet wheel 13 has a plurality of first teeth 130 around its periphery. The second storage chamber 11 has a first positioning pin 110. The third storage chamber 12 has a third positioning pin 120. The first storage chamber 10, second storage chamber 11, and third storage chamber 12 of the smartphone holder according to this embodiment have a plurality of support ribs 14 arranged at intervals.
[0012] The control member 2 is slidably provided in the first storage chamber 10 of the base 1, and has a plurality of second teeth 20 on one side that correspond to the plurality of first teeth 130 of the ratchet wheel 13. A position restriction piece 21 protrudes from the bottom side of the control member 2. The position restriction piece 21 is inserted into a position restriction hole 100 in the first storage chamber 10 and is exposed to the outside from the bottom of the base 1.
[0013] The clamping member 3 has a first clamping member 30 and a second clamping member 31, respectively. A first toothed hole 300 and a second toothed hole 310 are formed at corresponding ends of the first clamping member 30 and the second clamping member 31, respectively, to accommodate the ratchet wheel 13 of the base 1. The multiple teeth of the first toothed hole 300 and the second toothed hole 310 mesh with the multiple first toothed portions 130 of the ratchet wheel 13. A first traction portion 301 and a second traction portion 311 are provided on the opposite sides of the first toothed hole 300 and the second toothed hole 310 of the first clamping member 30 and the second clamping member 31, respectively. In addition, a first hook portion 302 and a second hook portion 312 are protruded from the long sides of the first clamping member 30 and the second clamping member 31, respectively. In this embodiment, the first clamping member 30 is slidably abutted on the plurality of support ribs 14 of the base 1. The second clamping member 31 is slidably stacked on the first clamping member 30, and the first clamping member 30 and the second clamping member 31 are slidable relative to each other in the left-right direction.
[0014] The elastic member 4 includes a first elastic member 40 and a second elastic member 41 that are respectively accommodated in the second accommodation chamber 11 and the third accommodation chamber 12 of the base 1. One ends of the first elastic member 40 and the second elastic member 41 are fixed to the first positioning pin 110 and the third positioning pin 120, respectively, and the other ends are hooked onto the first hook portion 302 and the second hook portion 312, respectively.
[0015] The cover 5 is assembled to the base 1 and has an anti-slip portion 50 on which the mobile phone 6 can be placed.
[0016] In reality, as shown in Figures 5 to 9, under normal conditions, the position of the control member 2 is restricted by the position restriction hole 100 of the base 1 by the position restriction piece 21, preventing it from moving. The ratchet wheel 13 is engaged with the second tooth portion 20 of the control member 2 (see Figure 5), preventing it from rotating around the pivot axis, and at the same time, preventing the first clamping member 30 and the second clamping member 31 from being pulled.
[0017] When clamping the mobile phone 6, first, the control member 2 is moved outward from the base 1 via the position restriction piece 21, and when the position restriction relationship between the control member 2 and the base 1 is released, the first tooth portion 130 of the ratchet wheel 13 disengages from the second tooth portion 20 of the control member 2 (see Figure 6), allowing it to rotate around the pivot axis.
[0018] When the first clamping member 30 and the second clamping member 31 are pulled toward the outside of the base 1 via the first pulling portion 301 and the second pulling portion 311, respectively (see FIG. 8), the first elastic member 40 and the second elastic member 41 are elastically stretched. When the first clamping member 30 and the second clamping member 31 are pulled and expanded until the clamping distance between them becomes greater than the dimensions of the mobile phone 6, the first pulling portion 301 and the second pulling portion 311 can be loosened. When the first clamping member 30 and the second clamping member 31 return to their original positions due to the elastic force of the first elastic member 40 and the second elastic member 41 and are reset to their initial positions, the mobile phone 6 can be securely clamped. At this time, when the position restricting piece 21 of the control member 2 is inserted again into the position restricting hole 100 of the base 1 and the control member 2 and the base 1 are again restricted in position, the ratchet wheel 13 is prevented from rotating around the pivot axis, and the first clamping member 30 and the second clamping member 31 are prevented from moving.
[0019] The anti-slip portion 50 of the cover 5 enhances the anti-slip effect of the mobile phone 6, and can prevent the mobile phone 6 from falling when riding a bicycle or motorcycle.
[0020] Please refer to Figures 10 and 11. As shown in Figures 10 and 11, the smartphone holder according to an embodiment of the present invention further includes an adjustment mechanism 7.
[0021] The adjustment mechanism 7 has a joint 70 that is assembled to the bottom of the base 1, and a clamping part 71 that is pivotally attached to the joint 70. A universal joint 700 protrudes from the front end of the joint 70. The clamping part 71 is composed of a first clamping piece 710, a second clamping piece 711, and an adjustment member 712 that is threadedly attached between the first clamping piece 710 and the second clamping piece 711. The first clamping piece 710 and the second clamping piece 711 have clamping grooves 713 at one end that correspond to the universal joint 700. Under normal conditions, the universal joint 700 is clamped in the clamping groove 713, and the angle of the smartphone holder cannot be adjusted by rotating the universal joint 700. When adjustment member 712 is turned and loosened, first clamping piece 710, second clamping piece 711, and clamping groove 713 are half-loosened, and the angle of the smartphone holder can be adjusted by rotating universal joint 700. After adjusting the angle, when adjustment member 712 is tightened, first clamping piece 710, second clamping piece 711, and clamping groove 713 are again in a clamped state, and clamping groove 713 can clamp universal joint 700 at the desired angle. In this embodiment, clamping portion 71 may further be provided at the bottom with assembly member 714 for attachment to the handlebars of a bicycle or motorcycle (not shown).
[0022] The smartphone holder of the present invention has the function of clamping mobile phones 6 of different sizes using the first clamping member 30 and the second clamping member 31, and also has the function of adjusting the angle using the adjustment mechanism 7, so that the user can easily see the navigation information and other communication function information displayed on the mobile phone 6 such as a smartphone, and the anti-slip part 50 of the cover body 5 provides an anti-slip effect, preventing the mobile phone 6 from falling while riding a bicycle or motorcycle.
