Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a holder, mainly for placing articles such as mobile phones, tablet computers or small mirrors, and belongs to the storage and leisure field.

Background Art

[0002] Currently, many mobile phone holders on the market have low practicality. Some are difficult to charge when placing a mobile phone on them, while some can be charged on them, but they have high manufacturing costs and are difficult to fold or store.

Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0003] The applicant invented a foldable mobile phone holder. However, since the supporting locking hook part on the holder has a relatively small size, it takes force to directly bend it by hand, and it is not applicable to people with small hand strength. Moreover, the supporting locking hook generally cannot be formed unless it is bent twice, which is complicated and troublesome. If this part is directly bent during shipment, the whole holder will not be in the same plane, occupying a large space and being less suitable for storage. Also, it cannot be bent repeatedly multiple times, is easy to break, and has a relatively small number of bendable times.

Means for Solving the Problems

[0004] The technical solution used in the present invention is as follows. By utilizing the bendability of an article (for example, metallic aluminum), a support locking hook connected to a support leg formed by twisting or rotating the support leg is deployed. Since the support locking hook has two or more bending structures, there is no need to re-press and bend the support locking hook. The twistable or rotatable location is at the upper end of the support leg, and its structure is in an elongated shape. When twisted or rotated by 70 to 90 degrees, the deformed locations are distributed within the elongated shape and the deformation per unit length is small, so it is not easily broken even when repeatedly pressed, bent, and twisted. Specifically, for example, a metallic aluminum sheet of a certain thickness is used as the bendable material of a mobile phone holder. The holder has three or more support legs. By bending and twisting the holder according to the bendability of the material itself used for the holder, it can be stored in substantially the same plane. The distance between the support legs can also be adjusted by bending the support legs of the holder into an upright state so that the inclination angle can be adjusted. There are two or more support locking hooks on the holder, and the support locking hook can be deployed or protruded forward from the planar structure by a method of twisting or rotating that is not easily broken for the support leg or connecting arm to which it is connected. Regarding the middle support leg of the holder, since it is necessary to press it forward or backward at the top, a torsion rotation rod can be connected to the top. By connecting or fixing the torsion rotation rod to the upper part of the holder, when the middle support leg is pressed, the torsion rotation rod will rotate correspondingly. Since the deformed locations are distributed within the elongated shape and the deformation per unit length is small, it is not easily broken with less force even when repeatedly pressed and twisted, and the number of uses increases by more than 20 times. Also, after the torsion rotation rod or the support leg is torsionally rotated, its support strength is enhanced, because it cannot withstand a relatively large force in the thin direction when not torsionally rotated.

[0005] The technology of the torsion-rotating rod in this technical solution can increase the number of bending and torsion cycles and the service life, and considering that it can be used in more fields, this technology is proposed as an independent claim. Its solution means that the "application member" is connected or fixed to the "torsion-rotating rod", and the "application member" is accommodated or deployed by the torsion rotation or bending rotation of the "torsion-rotating rod", or the "application member" is made to play a role. In some cases, the torsion-rotating rod belongs to the "application member" and plays roles such as support. The deformed parts of the "torsion-rotating rod" are distributed in an elongated shape and the deformation per unit length is small, so it is not easy to break even when repeatedly bent and twisted. The said "application member" can play roles such as support, locking or hooking. One end of the "torsion-rotating rod" can be fixed, or the tips of both ends can be fixed. The torsion-rotating rod with both ends fixed can better receive the force in the direction perpendicular to the torsion-rotating rod, and the torsion-rotating rod with one end or one side fixed can increase the torsion rotation length of the torsion-rotating rod.

[0006] If the connecting arm or the support rod is rotated by about 70 to 90 degrees, the support locking hook will be deployed from the holder. After being bent and twisted, there is sufficient space above it, and an article such as a mobile phone can be placed on the support locking hook. Moreover, no effort is required when bending or twisting. One can just bend or twist while holding the support locking hook. Since the deformable parts that can be twisted or rotated are distributed on the relatively long connecting arm or support rod and the average deformation per unit length is small, it is not easily broken even after repeated bending and twisting, and the service life is extended by more than 20 times. Also, less force is required when bending and twisting like this, and it can be easily stored. It can be in a state where the shipping state is almost completely in the same plane, which facilitates direct provision to consumers in a mobile phone packaging box, and two or more such holders that are stored in a planar state can be put in. The present invention can be bent or twisted directly by the bendability of a certain metal material without adjustment according to the shape of a coiled tube, etc. The upright part of the holder uses three or more rod-shaped metals as support legs, and is bent into a shape standing on three legs to be upright. When the distance and angle of the three support legs are relatively large, the holder is stable. The present invention can better overcome or avoid the problem of metal fatigue fracture, make good use of the bendability of the metal, and be applied to life and widely popularized.

[0007] Furthermore, by the support locking hook being separated from the bottom of the support leg by a certain spatial distance, it facilitates inserting the charger cable into the mobile phone.

[0008] Furthermore, the support locking hook has two or more bending structures or is a formed hook-shaped structure. After being deployed by the twisting or rotation of the support leg or the connecting arm, it does not need to be bent again.

Effects of the Invention

[0009] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: Such a holder is mostly or entirely made of metal, which is of higher quality than plastic, has a longer lifespan than plastic, has a beautiful appearance, is easy to store or deploy, easy to use, has a large number of repeated push-and-bend cycles, and has little harm to the environment and is recyclable. When the cost is low, a mobile phone holder can be manufactured with a small amount or inexpensive metal such as iron, aluminum, or stainless steel, and placing the mobile phone on the holder does not affect charging.

[0010] An unexpected effect of the present invention is that it is not easily broken even after repeated push-and-bending and twisting, its service life is extended by more than 20 times, there is no need to re-push-and-bend the end of the supporting locking hook, and it can be easily stored even after such push-and-bending and twisting. It may be in a state where the shipping state is almost in the same plane, which facilitates directly providing it to consumers in the mobile phone packaging box.

[0011] Also, trademarks, manufacturers' logos, other characters, or pictures may be printed on the holder, and items such as name tags (for meetings), identity cards, books, sheet music, MP4s, picture books, small searchlights, photo frames, etc. may be placed on it. Items such as laptops or small kitchen cutting boards may be placed on the holder with an increased size.

Modes for Carrying Out the Invention

[0013] Figures 1 and 2 in the drawings are the optimal embodiments of the present invention at present. Using a metal aluminum plate, pure aluminum is more preferable. It can be easily bent or pressed without breaking. The thickness of the metal piece manufactured by laser cutting or die pressing the aluminum plate is about 1.2 - 2 mm. This product may also be manufactured by die-casting means, which facilitates large-scale and rapid production. In order to form the shape in Figure 2 by manually bending and twisting the metal article in Figure 1, it can be made usable through two steps of bending and twisting.

[0014] The present invention will be further described by way of examples with reference to the drawings below.

[0015] FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the storage state of Example 1 of the present invention. They are in substantially the same plane. The right support leg 1 and the left support leg 6 are bent in the same direction, and the middle support leg 5 is bent in the opposite direction to make it stand upright on three legs. Since the middle support leg 5 is connected to the center of the torsion rotation rod 9, when bent, it will drive the torsion rotation rod 9 to rotate. The rotatable deformation parts are distributed in an elongated shape and the deformation per unit length is small, so it is not easy to break even when repeatedly bent and twisted. While holding the right support locking hook 2 in FIG. 1 by hand and twisting it, the right support leg 1 connected to it is rotated about 70-90 degrees. The other left support locking hook 7 is also twisted in the same direction, and the left support leg 6 connected to it is rotated about 70-90 degrees. At this time, the appearance should be substantially the same as the perspective view of FIG. 2. If the mobile phone is placed on the right support locking hook 2 and the left support locking hook 7, and the mobile phone is leaned obliquely against the backrest and the mark block 3, the mobile phone can be used while being viewed normally. A charging cable can also be inserted into the lower part of the mobile phone, and the mobile phone can be viewed while charging. The inclination angle of the holder can be adjusted by bending or folding the three support legs again, and the viewing requirements can be better satisfied. The backrest and the mark block 3 not only have the function of connecting the backrest and the three support legs, but also various signs or trademarks can be printed on it to satisfy the expression needs of the manufacturer. The right support leg 1 and the left support leg 6 are not easy to break even when repeatedly bent and twisted because the deformation per unit length is small during the torsion rotation process.

[0016] Figure 3 is a perspective view of the storage state of Example 2 of the present invention. The right support leg 1 and the left support leg 6 are bent or folded in the same direction, and the middle support leg 5 is bent in the opposite direction to make it stand upright on three legs. Since the middle support leg 5 is connected to the center of the torsion rotation rod 9, when it is bent, it will drive the torsion rotation rod 9 to rotate. The rotatable deformation parts are distributed in an elongated shape and the deformation per unit length is small, so it is not easy to break even when repeatedly bent and twisted. By twisting while holding the right support locking hook 2 in Figure 3 by hand, the right connection arm 4 connected to it can be rotated about 70 to 90 degrees. By twisting the other left support locking hook 7 in the same direction, the left connection arm 8 connected to it can be rotated about 70 to 90 degrees. At this time, the appearance should be almost the same as the perspective view of Figure 4. If the mobile phone is placed on the right support locking hook 2 and the left support locking hook 7, and the mobile phone is leaned obliquely against the backrest and the mark block 3, the mobile phone can be used while being viewed normally. Other aspects are the same as those in the embodiment of Figure 2, and the inclination angle and the signs or trademarks printed on it can also be adjusted. The right connection arm 4 and the left connection arm 8 have small deformation per unit length during the torsion rotation process, so they are not easy to break even when repeatedly bent and twisted.
