Description

Technical Field

[0001] The technical field of the present invention is a fixing device for storing a touch pen used in a motorcycle.

Background Art

[0002] There are people who like to ride a motorcycle on holidays and travel around or enjoy the sense of speed. It is common to attach a mobile phone holder to the motorcycle and use the mobile phone hands-free. This not only provides a navigation function to unknown destinations, but also allows recording a trip or playing music using applications on the mobile phone, making it possible to provide a more comfortable atmosphere during the driving process.

[0003] In order to protect their own safety during driving, many bikers wear connecting-type protectors, boots, gloves, and helmets to enhance driving safety. However, for touch-screen mobile phones, gloves are a major obstacle to operating the mobile phone. To solve this problem, some bikers temporarily stop and take off their gloves to operate the mobile phone with bare hands when they need to operate the mobile phone, but in reality, it is not convenient.

[0004] Therefore, some bikers carry a touch pen and operate the mobile phone with the touch pen. To prevent the touch pen from falling, one end of a spiral cord is connected to the touch pen, and the other end is fixed to the motorcycle body or the user himself. However, in an environment of high-speed driving or strong wind of the motorcycle, the spiral cord is easily pulled and swayed, which not only easily affects the concentration of the biker during driving, but also poses a considerable danger if the spiral cord swings or pops out significantly.

Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0005] The main objective of this invention is to provide a fixing device for storing a stylus that can be directly attached to a motorcycle. When in use, the stylus can be easily taken out and used, and when not in use, the stylus can be automatically pulled back to its original position by a wire. This not only enhances safety during riding but also makes it more convenient for bikers to use their mobile phones with the stylus when the motorcycle is stopped. [Means for solving the problem]

[Figure 3] This is an exploded view of the present invention. [Figure 4] This is a front view of the stylus pen of the present invention. [Figure 5] This is a schematic diagram illustrating the use of the present invention. [Modes for carrying out the invention]

[0018] The technical means of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to specific embodiments and drawings. It is necessary to explain that when an element is described as being "attached" or "fixed" to another element, it means that some elements may be located directly on top of or within other elements. When an element is considered to be "connected" to another element, it means that some elements may simultaneously be directly connected to or within other elements. In the shown embodiments, directions such as up, down, left, right, front, and back are relative and are used to illustrate that the structure and motion of different parts in the present invention are relative. These notations can be understood as appropriate when the parts are in the positions shown in the drawings. On the other hand, if the description of element positions changes, these notations should also change accordingly.

[0019] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art. Terms used herein are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the invention. Furthermore, the terms “and / or” as used herein include any and all combinations of one or more related items.

[0020] As shown in Figures 1 and 2, schematic diagrams of the present invention from different angles. The present invention is a fixing device for storing a stylus pen, and includes a fixing assembly 10, a support unit 20, a stylus pen 30, and a reel 40, wherein the fixing assembly 10 is for fixing to a mounting target member 50, and the mounting target member 50 may be a support rod on the handlebars of a motorcycle.

[0021] The support unit 20 is rotatably attached to the fixing assembly 10, has a chamber 21 communicating with the outside, a part of the touch pen 30 is inserted into the chamber 21, and a touch tip 31 and a coupling end 32 away from the touch tip 31 are provided. The reel 40 is installed inside the support unit 20, a wire 41 that can be pulled is provided and extends into the chamber 21. The wire 41 is connected to the coupling end 32. When the user takes out the touch pen 30 from the chamber 21 for use and it is used up, the coupling end 32 is pulled by the wire 41 to return the touch pen 30 into the chamber 21.

[0022] Next, the configuration of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. 3.

[0023] The fixing assembly 10 is for fixing the attachment target member 50. In this embodiment, the attachment target member 50 is a support rod near the handle of a motorcycle. Since the current support rod is mainly cylindrical, the fixing assembly 10 of the present invention is also designed to be fixed to the cylindrical attachment target member 50. The fixing assembly 10 includes a first arc-shaped member 11 and a second arc-shaped member 12. The main body shapes of the first arc-shaped member 11 and the second arc-shaped member 12 are semi-arc-shaped, and they can be fixed to the outer wall of the circular attachment target member 50 by contacting each other oppositely. The connection structure between the first arc-shaped member 11 and the second arc-shaped member 12 is coupled by pivotally attaching one end at the contact location, and the other end is locked with a screw 14 and a nut 15 to achieve the required firmness.

[0024] Furthermore, to enhance robustness and applicability, the fixing assembly 10 further includes a C-shaped anti-slip member 13. The C-shaped anti-slip member 13 can be temporarily expanded during installation and then attached to the outer wall of the mounting target member 50. The first arc-shaped member 11 and the second arc-shaped member 12 then contact each other, clamping the C-shaped anti-slip member 13 to its outer wall, and then locking it in place provides excellent robustness. Additionally, when applying this product to different types of motorcycles, the diameter of the mounting target member 50 may also differ. In this case, by replacing the C-shaped anti-slip member 13 with one of a different inner diameter, the first arc-shaped member 11 and the second arc-shaped member 12 can be clamped and locked again, eliminating the need to replace the first arc-shaped member 11 and the second arc-shaped member 12, thus expanding the applicability of this product at a lower cost.

[0025] The support unit 20 is for housing the stylus pen 30 and is rotatably mounted on the fixed assembly 10. The purpose of rotation is to allow the user to remove the stylus pen 30 from a wider angle. The support unit 20 includes a first housing member 22, a second housing member 23, and a chamber housing 24. The reel 40 and the chamber housing 24 are located in a space formed such that the first housing member 22 and the second housing member 23 are in contact with each other. The chamber housing 24 has a chamber 21 that communicates with the outside, and the chamber 21 is bell-mouth shaped, gradually narrowing from the outside to the inside, so that the stylus pen 30 is smoothly pulled by the wire 41 and returned to the chamber 21. The chamber housing 24 has a hole 241 located away from the opening of the chamber 21, and the wire 41 of the reel 40 extends into the chamber 21 through the hole 241.

[0026] In this embodiment, the inner wall of the first housing member 22 further has at least one first projection strip 221, and the inner wall of the second housing member 23 has at least one second projection strip 231, and at their corresponding positions, the outer wall of the chamber housing 24 has at least one groove 242, and when the first housing member 22 and the second housing member 23 are in contact with each other, the first projection strip 221 and the second projection strip 231 are located in their respective corresponding grooves 242, and after adhesive is applied and fixed in place, the positions of each member will not move on their own.

[0027] Furthermore, the support unit 20 is rotatably attached to the fixed assembly 10, and this rotatable structure has a shaft member 25 on the outer wall of the support unit 20 and a shaft seat 16 on the outer wall of the fixed assembly 10. In this embodiment, the shaft member 25 protrudes from the outer wall of the fixed assembly 10 facing the second housing member 23, and the shaft seat 16 is on the outer wall of the support unit 20 facing the first arc-shaped member 11. When assembled, after the shaft member 25 is positioned on the shaft seat 16, it is locked without hindering the rotation of both, and by providing an appropriate degree of tightening when locked, the support unit 20 can be positioned on the fixed assembly 10 at this angle after rotation adjustment, and Figures 1 and 2 each show two different angle patterns.

[0028] The stylus 30 is provided with a touch tip 31 and a coupling end 32 separated from the touch tip 31. The stylus 30 is used to operate a mobile phone by touching the touch tip 31 to the screen of the mobile phone, and the coupling end 32 is for connecting the wire 41 thereto. Referring also to Figure 4, the stylus 30 has a soft tube wall 33, for example, the tube wall 33 is made of rubber, and the tube wall 33 has at least one peak edge 34 that protrudes in a mountain-like shape in the longitudinal direction. In this embodiment, three peak edges 34 are formed at equal angles, and when it rains or when water droplets appear on the screen, the peak edges 34 first scrape off the water droplets on the screen, thereby preventing loss of sensitivity when the touch tip 31 comes into contact with the screen.

[0029] The reel 40 is a conventional product and is provided with a pullable wire 41, preferably a metal wire. The reel 40 is provided with an elastic reset member and a locking member. The locking member can temporarily lock the wire 41 after it has been pulled out, stopping its retrieval and facilitating the operation of the stylus pen 30. When attempting to retrieve the wire, the user first pulls the wire 41 to release the internal locking member, and then uses the elastic reset member to quickly retrieve the wire 41 after the external force has dissipated.

[0030] As shown in Figure 5, this is a schematic diagram of the actual use of the present invention. The mobile phone holder 60 is fixed to the mounting member 50 of the motorcycle, and the fixing device for storing the stylus of the present invention is also attached to the cylindrical mounting member 50 by the fixing assembly 10. In this state, even if the biker is wearing gloves and cannot touch the screen, they can easily take the stylus 30 out of the chamber 21 of the support unit 20 and operate the mobile phone by touching the screen with the stylus 30. When the stylus has been used, the winding mechanism of the reel 40 is activated by first lightly pulling the wire 41, and the connecting end 32 is pulled by the wire 41, allowing the stylus 30 to be returned to the chamber 21. This makes it more convenient for bikers to use their mobile phones, and also makes it safer while riding because the wire is not exposed.
