Abstract
Description
Electronic device support TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application claims priority to the Chinese patent application No. 2024218209171, filed on July 29, 2024, and entitled "Mobile phone case with supporting function", the content of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. BACKGROUND
[0002] The existing electronic device support usually realizes rotation through a hinge structure and is fixedly installed on an electronic device or an electronic device accessory for use. Meanwhile, the opening and storage of the electronic device support are realized through the rotation of a support piece. In addition, the user can adjust the inclination angle of the electronic device support relative to a table top by adjusting the rotation angle of the support piece, so as to make the inclination angle meet the user's demand or adapt to different use scenarios.
[0003] As an important component of the support structure, the hinge structure is generally composed of a first hinge, a rotating shaft and a second hinge. The first hinge is rotationally connected to the second hinge through the rotating shaft. One of the first hinge and the second hinge is connected to the support piece, and the other is connected to the electronic device or the electronic device accessory. Since the first hinge and the second hinge are generally fixedly connected to the corresponding components by riveting or the like, the hinge will generally be stressed when the user pulls the support piece to rotate. When the force of pulling the support piece is too large or the support piece falls and receives an impact, the stress is too concentrated on the hinge. Since the hinge is fixed as a whole, the hinge will fall off the shell or be broken.

[0025] Compared with the prior art, the present application has at least the following beneficial effects:
[0026] 1. The electronic device support and electronic device accessory disclosed in the present application, by setting the first hinge to include a first fixed part, a first movable part and a first shaft sleeve part, the first fixed part is used to connect with the electronic device or the electronic device accessory, and the first movable part is suspended from the first fixed part at the second end connected with the rotating shaft, and can be moved relative to the first end to play a force relief role through the deformation of the first movable part when the support is rotated. Since most of the force is relieved by the first movable part, only a small part of the force will be transmitted to the first fixed part, so when the user pulls the support with excessive force or the support falls and receives an impact, the first fixed part will not fall off from the hinge. At the same time, the problem of stress concentration is solved by the force relief of the first movable part, and the hinge will not break even if it is subjected to a large force.
[0027] 2. Since the second end of the first movable part is movable, and the second end is connected with the rotating shaft, during the rotation of the support, the second end will move away from the shell of the electronic device or the electronic device accessory under stress to drive the rotating shaft to also move away from the shell. For example, when the support is stored, the rotating shaft is embedded on the shell, and with the rotation of the support, the rotating shaft can be moved outside the shell. The existing support on the electronic device or the electronic device accessory cannot move the rotating shaft, and the support will interfere with the shell after being rotated to a certain angle, so that the support cannot continue to rotate. Therefore, the rotation angle of the support of the common support on the market is generally between 0-130 degrees. However, the support provided by the technical solution of the present application can move the rotating shaft outside the shell with the rotation of the support, which is equivalent to lifting the height of the support and increasing the gap between the support and the shell. In this case, the support can be rotated to a larger angle, for example, the support can be rotated to 180 degrees to fit on the shell. Through the increase of the rotation angle, the user is provided with more support angle options to meet the user's more use scenarios and use requirements. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS

[0052] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative work fall within the scope of protection of the present application.
[0053] In the present application, the terms "upper", "inner", "outer", "middle", etc. indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings. These terms are mainly used to better describe the present application and its embodiments, and are not used to limit the indicated devices, elements or components to have a specific orientation, or to be constructed and operated in a specific orientation.
[0054] In addition, the above-mentioned partial terms may, in addition to being used to indicate the orientation or positional relationship, also be used to indicate other meanings, for example, the term "upper" may also be used to indicate a certain dependent relationship or connection relationship in some cases. Those of ordinary skill in the art can understand the specific meaning of these terms in the present application according to the specific circumstances.
[0055] In addition, the terms "provided with", "connected" should be understood broadly. For example, it can be fixedly connected, detachably connected, or integrally constructed; it can be mechanically connected, or electrically connected; it can be directly connected, or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal communication between two devices, elements or components. Those of ordinary skill in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above-mentioned terms in the present application according to the specific circumstances.
[0056] In addition, the terms "first", "second", and the like are used merely to distinguish different devices, elements or components (which can be of the same or different type and configuration), and do not connote relative importance or quantity. The meaning of "a plurality" is two or more, unless otherwise specified.
[0057] The existing electronic device support usually realizes rotation through a hinge structure and is fixedly installed on an electronic device or an electronic device accessory for use. Meanwhile, the opening and storage of the electronic device support are realized through rotation of the support. In addition, the user can adjust the inclination angle of the electronic device relative to the desktop by adjusting the rotation angle of the support when supporting the electronic device, so as to make the inclination angle meet the user's demand or adapt to different use scenarios.
[0058] The hinge structure, as an important component of the support structure, is generally composed of a first hinge, a rotating shaft and a second hinge. The first hinge is rotationally connected to the second hinge through the rotating shaft. One of the first hinge and the second hinge is connected to the support, and the other is connected to the electronic device or the electronic device accessory. Since the first hinge and the second hinge are generally fixedly connected to the corresponding components by riveting or the like, the hinge will generally be stressed when the user pulls the support to rotate. When the force of pulling the support is too large or the support falls and receives an impact, the stress is too concentrated on the hinge. Since the hinge is fixed as a whole, the hinge will fall off the shell or be broken.
[0059] In addition, in order to facilitate storage, an installation groove is usually arranged on the electronic device or the electronic device accessory to install the electronic device support. When the electronic device support is stored, it can be stored in the installation groove, so as to avoid the electronic device support protruding on the surface of the electronic device or the electronic device accessory and affecting the normal use thereof. However, the arrangement of the installation groove will cause the support to abut against the side wall of the installation groove when the support is rotated to a certain angle, so that the support cannot be further rotated. The rotation angle of the support is limited within a certain range, for example, 0-130 degrees. When the user needs the support to rotate a larger angle to realize the adjustment of the inclination angle of the electronic device or in some use scenarios, the existing support structure will no longer meet the user's demand.
[0060] To solve the above technical problems, the electronic device support provided by the present application is configured to set on the surface of the electronic device to support the electronic device. For example, it can be set on the back surface of the electronic device, that is, the surface opposite to the display surface / observation surface / operation surface of the electronic device. The electronic device can be a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a reader, etc. The present application does not make specific limitation on this. Similarly, the electronic device support can also be installed on an electronic device accessory, such as a protective case, a card bag, a mobile power supply, etc. The electronic device support is connected with the electronic device through the electronic device accessory to realize the support function of the electronic device.
[0061] Further, since the second end of the first movable part is movable and connected with the rotating shaft, during the rotation of the support, the second end will move away from the shell of the electronic device or the shell of the electronic device accessory under stress to drive the rotating shaft to move away from the shell. For example, when the support is stored, the rotating shaft is embedded on the shell, and with the rotation of the support, the rotating shaft can be moved out of the shell. The existing support of the electronic device or the electronic device accessory cannot move the rotating shaft, and the support will interfere with the shell after being rotated to a certain angle, so that the support cannot be continuously rotated. Therefore, the rotation angle of the support of the common support on the market is generally between 0-130 degrees. However, the support provided by the technical solution of the present application can move the rotating shaft out of the shell with the rotation of the support, which is equivalent to lifting the height of the support and increasing the gap between the support and the shell. In this case, the support can be rotated to a larger angle, for example, to 180 degrees to be attached to the shell. Through the increase of the rotation angle, more support angle options are provided for the user to meet more use scenarios and use requirements of the user.
[0062] It can be understood that the electronic device support is configured to be set on the surface of the electronic device to support the electronic device. For example, it can be set on the back surface of the electronic device, that is, the surface opposite to the display surface / observation surface / operation surface of the electronic device, the electronic device can be a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a reader, etc. The present application does not make specific limitation on this. Similarly, the electronic device support can also be installed on an electronic device accessory, such as a protective case, a card bag, a mobile power supply, etc. The electronic device support is connected with the electronic device through the electronic device accessory to realize the support function of the electronic device.
[0063] The technical solution of the present application will be further described below in combination with the embodiments and the drawings.
[0064] Please refer to FIG. 1-4, the electronic device support provided by the application is used for supporting the electronic device, so as to facilitate the user to watch the video, or to operate the electronic device and so on. The electronic device support includes a support 1 and a hinge structure 2, wherein the hinge structure 2 includes a first hinge 21, a second hinge 22 and a rotating shaft 23, the first hinge 21 is rotatably connected with the second hinge 22 through the rotating shaft 23, and the second hinge 22 is connected with the support 1, so that the support 1 can rotate. The first hinge 21 includes a first fixed part 211, a first movable part 212 and a first shaft sleeve part 213, the first fixed part 211 is used for connecting with the electronic device or the electronic device accessory, it can be understood that the first fixed part 211 can be directly fixedly connected with the electronic device or the electronic device accessory, or can be detachably connected, or can be connected with a structure on the electronic device or the electronic device accessory to indirectly connect with the electronic device or the electronic device accessory, for example, the electronic device or the electronic device accessory is provided with a structure that can rotate thereon, the first fixed part 211 can be connected with the structure, when the structure rotates relative to the electronic device or the electronic device accessory, the support 1 can be driven to change its position, direction and the like on the electronic device or the electronic device accessory. Further refer to FIG. 5, the first movable part 212 includes a first end 212a and a second end 212b, the first end 212a is connected with the first fixed part 211, and the second end 212b is connected with the first shaft sleeve part 213, and the first shaft sleeve part 213 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 23.
[0065] By setting the first hinge 21 to include a first fixed part 211, a first movable part 212 and a first shaft sleeve part 213, the first fixed part 211 is used to connect with the electronic device or the electronic device accessory, and the first movable part 212 is suspended relative to the first fixed part 211 because the first end 212a is connected with the first fixed part 211 and the second end 212b is connected with the rotating shaft 23 through the first shaft sleeve part 213, and the second end 212b can move relative to the first end 212a through the deformation of the first movable part 212 to play a role of force relief when the support 1 rotates, because most of the force is relieved by the first movable part 212, only a small part of the force will be transmitted to the first fixed part 211, so when the user pulls the support 1 with too much force or the support 1 falls and receives an impact, the first fixed part 211 will not be separated from the hinge, and the stress concentration problem is solved through the force relief of the first movable part 212, and the hinge will not break even if it is subjected to a larger force. Further, because the second end 212b of the first movable part 212 is movable and the second end 212b is connected with the rotating shaft 23 through the first shaft sleeve part 213, during the rotation of the support 1, the second end 212b will move away from the shell of the electronic device or the shell of the electronic device accessory under stress to drive the rotating shaft 23 to also move away from the shell, for example, when the support 1 is stored, the rotating shaft 23 is embedded on the shell, and with the rotation of the support 1, the rotating shaft 23 can be outside the shell. The existing support of the electronic device or the electronic device accessory cannot move because the rotating shaft cannot move, and the support will interfere with the shell after being rotated to a certain angle, so that the support cannot continue to rotate, therefore, the rotation angle of the support of the common support on the market is generally between 0-130 degrees, and the support provided by the technical scheme of the present application can move the rotating shaft 23 outside the shell with the rotation of the support 1, which is equivalent to lifting the height of the support 1 and increasing the gap between the support 1 and the shell. In this case, the support 1 can be rotated to a larger angle, for example, the support 1 can be rotated to 180 degrees to fit on the shell. Through the increase of the rotation angle, more support angle options are provided for the user to meet more use scenarios and use requirements of the user.
[0066] In some embodiments, referring to FIGS. 5 and 6, the first movable part 212 includes two side edges 212c located between the first end 212a and the second end 212b and oppositely arranged, one of the side edges 212c is spaced apart from the first fixed part 211 to form a first gap 212d therebetween, for example, the first fixed part 211 is an L-shaped structure, the first end 212a of the first movable part 212 is connected to the horizontal part of the L-shaped structure, and the second end 212b extends along the vertical part of the L-shaped structure, at this time, the second end 212b is capable of moving relative to the first end 212a to cause the first movable part 212 to deform, and therefore the side edges 212c of the first movable part 212 need to be spaced apart from the vertical part of the L-shaped structure to form the first gap 212d, at this time, the first movable part 212 is capable of moving without being interfered by the first fixed part 211. In other embodiments, if the first fixed part 211 is a half-enclosing structure similar to a U-shaped structure as shown in the drawings, the two side edges 212c need to be spaced apart from the first fixed part 211, and the first gap 212d is formed between the two side edges 212c and the first fixed part 211, so as to ensure that the first fixed part 211 does not interfere with the deformation of the first movable part 212.
[0067] In some embodiments, referring to FIGS. 5 and 6, the first fixed part 211 is a U-shaped structure, the first end 212a of the first movable part 212 is connected to the bottom of the U-shaped first fixed part 211, the second end 212b extends towards the opening of the U-shaped structure, and the first shaft sleeve part 213 protrudes out of the U-shaped structure. The first fixed part 211 is arranged as a U-shaped structure, the half-enclosing structure plays a certain protection and limiting role on the first movable part 212, at the same time, the first shaft sleeve part 213 protrudes out of the U-shaped structure, leaving a long enough length for the first movable part 212, which is capable of removing a larger force through deformation, ensuring that the hinge will not be damaged; at the same time, the above design can ensure that the first movable part 212 plays a corresponding role while minimizing the length of the first hinge 21, when the first hinge 21 is connected to the electronic device or the electronic device accessory, minimizing the occupied space, ensuring the miniaturization and thinning of the electronic device or the electronic device accessory.
[0068] In some embodiments, referring to Figs. 5 and 6, the bottom of the first fixed part 211 of the U-shaped structure and the positions close to the two ends at the opening thereof are each provided with at least one first fixing point 211a, that is, the bottom of the U-shaped structure and the positions close to the two ends of the top thereof are each provided with at least one first fixing point 211a, and the U-shaped structure is fixed on the electronic device or the electronic device accessory through the first fixing point 211a. It can be understood that the first fixing point 211a may, for example, be a welding point, and the first fixed part 211 is connected to the electronic device or the electronic device accessory through welding; the first fixing point 211a may also be a riveting column, and the connection of the first fixed part 211 can also be achieved by inserting the riveting column into the electronic device or the electronic device accessory and then performing riveting; similarly, the first fixing point 211a may also be a riveting hole, and the connection can be achieved by sleeving a riveting column on the electronic device or the electronic device accessory and then performing riveting. The first fixing point 211a can also be other structures, which are not limited in the present application, as long as the connection of the first fixed part 211 to the electronic device or the electronic device accessory can be achieved. By arranging the first fixing point 211a as shown in the figure, the stable connection of the first fixed part 211 to the electronic device or the electronic device accessory can be ensured, and at the same time, a plurality of (two or more) first fixing points 211a can be arranged at each position according to the need to ensure the reliability of the connection.
[0069] Further, referring to Fig. 6, in some embodiments, the width d2 of the second end 212b of the first movable part 212 is greater than or equal to the width d1 of the first end 212a, and since the second end 212b is provided with the first shaft sleeve part 213, the first shaft sleeve part 213 needs to satisfy a certain length to be stably connected to the rotating shaft 23. Since the first end 212a is connected to the first fixed part 211, the first end 212a is the position that plays a major role in the deformation of the first movable part 212, and if the first end 212a is set too wide, the first movable part 212 may not be easily deformed, losing the function of unloading, and if the first end 212a is set too narrow, the first end 212a may be broken due to fatigue after repeated deformation of the first movable part 212. Therefore, the width d1 of the first end 212a is set within a reasonable range, and on this basis, the width d2 of the second end 212b is set to be greater than or equal to the width d1 of the first end 212a, which can ensure the stable connection of the first shaft sleeve part 213 to the rotating shaft 23.
[0070] In some embodiments, with reference to Figures 3 and 4, the first hinge 21 further comprises a limiting portion 214, as shown in the figures, the limiting portion 214 is arranged on the end of the first fixed portion 211 of the U-shaped structure at the opening thereof and is protruded in a direction away from the first fixed portion 211 of the U-shaped structure. Since the first movable portion 212 can be deformed, the rotation shaft 23 and the second hinge 22 can produce a certain displacement in the thickness direction of the first hinge 21 during rotation, including displacement from the initial position to the upper side of the first hinge 21 and displacement from the initial position to the lower side of the first hinge 21, and the lower side of the first hinge 21 is connected to the electronic device or the electronic device accessory, when the rotation shaft 23 and the second hinge 22 are displaced to the lower side, they will press and hit the electronic device or the electronic device accessory, causing wear, scratches and other problems. By arranging the limiting portion 214, the rotation shaft 23 and the second hinge 22 can be stopped by the limiting portion 214 when they are displaced to the lower side, so as to avoid contact with the electronic device or the electronic device accessory and protect the electronic device or the electronic device accessory.
[0071] Further, the limiting portion 214 comprises two limiting portions 214, which are arranged on the two ends of the first fixed portion 211 of the U-shaped structure at the opening thereof, respectively. By arranging one limiting portion 214 on the left and one on the right, the force on the rotation shaft 23 and the second hinge 22 when they contact the limiting portion is balanced, so that the problem of one end being stopped by the limiting portion 214 and the other end continuing to displace, causing warping, does not occur. At the same time, along the thickness direction of the limiting portion 214, each limiting portion 214 further comprises a protruding portion 214a on the end close to the U-shaped structure. The arrangement of the protruding portion 214a allows the protruding portion 214a to act as a fulcrum during the rotation of the support 1 and the displacement of the rotation shaft 23 to the outside of the shell, so as to assist the lifting of the rotation shaft 23 and allow the support 1 to rotate to a larger angle, providing the user with more options for the support angle and meeting the user's more use scenarios and use requirements.
[0072] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 7 and FIG. 8, the second hinge 22 can also include a second fixed part 221, a second movable part 222, and a second shaft sleeve part 223, the second fixed part 221 is fixedly connected with the support 1, the second movable part 222 includes a third end 222a and a fourth end 222b, the third end is connected with the second fixed part 221, the fourth end 222b is connected with the second shaft sleeve part 223, and the second shaft sleeve part 223 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 23. Based on the same principle as the first hinge 21, the second hinge 22 can also be provided in the same structure as the first hinge 21 to achieve the same technical effect as the first hinge 21. In actual application, different combination modes of the first hinge 21 and the second hinge 22 can be selected according to the force required to be borne by the hinge structure 2 in the product structure, for example, when the force required to be borne by the hinge structure 2 in the product structure is small, the corresponding structure can be provided on only the first hinge 21 or only the second hinge 22 to achieve force relief and improve the rotation angle of the support 1; when the force required to be borne by the hinge structure 2 in the product structure is large, the corresponding structure can be provided on both the first hinge 21 and the second hinge 22, and force relief and improvement of the rotation angle of the support 1 can be achieved through cooperation of the two to achieve the optimal effect.
[0073] Further, with reference to FIG. 7 and FIG. 8, in some embodiments, the setting positions of various parts can be adjusted according to the structure of the second hinge 22, for example, along the length direction of the second fixed part 221, the second fixed part 221 includes a first sub-fixed part 221a, a second sub-fixed part 221b, and a third sub-fixed part 221c in sequence, the second movable part 222 includes a first sub-movable part 2221 and a second sub-movable part 2222, and the second shaft sleeve part 223 includes a first sub-shaft sleeve part 223a and a second sub-shaft sleeve part 223b. Among them, the third end 222a of the first sub-movable part 2221 is connected to the first sub-fixed part 221a, and the fourth end 222b of the first sub-movable part 2221 is connected with the first sub-shaft sleeve part 223a; similarly, the third end 222a of the second sub-movable part 2222 is connected to the third sub-fixed part 221c, and the fourth end 222b of the second sub-movable part 2222 is connected with the second sub-shaft sleeve part 223b. Through the above setting, the second hinge 22 can be connected with the first hinge 21 on both sides of the rotating shaft 23, and the first sub-movable part 2221 and the second sub-movable part 2222 can achieve force relief and improve the rotation angle of the support 1 through deformation, and the specific principle is the same as that of the first hinge 21, which will not be repeated here.
[0074] In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 8, the second sub-fixed part 221b is located between the first sub-movable part 2221 and the second sub-movable part 2222 and is spaced apart from the first sub-movable part 2221 and the second sub-movable part 2222 to form two second gaps 224. As can be seen from the figure, since the overall length of the second hinge 22 is longer than that of the first hinge 21 and the second hinge 22 needs to be connected to both ends of the rotating shaft 23, the first sub-movable part 2221 and the second sub-movable part 2222 are spaced apart in the length direction of the second hinge 22. In order to ensure the reliable connection of the second hinge 22 and the support 1, the first sub-fixed part 221a, the second sub-fixed part 221b and the third sub-fixed part 221c are sequentially arranged in the length direction of the second hinge 22, and the second sub-fixed part 221b protrudes into the first sub-movable part 2221 and the second sub-movable part 2222 to stagger the first sub-fixed part 221a and the third sub-fixed part 221c, which together form a triangle, and the connection is more stable and reliable. Similarly, in order to make the second sub-fixed part 221b not affect the deformation of the first sub-movable part 2221 and the second sub-movable part 2222, the second sub-fixed part 221b is formed with the second gaps 224 between them, which ensures that they do not interfere with each other.
[0075] Further, at least one second fixed point 221d is arranged on the first sub-fixed part 221a, the second sub-fixed part 221b and the third sub-fixed part 221c, and the second fixed part 221 is fixedly connected with the support 1 through the second fixed point 221d. The second fixed point 221d can be a welding point, for example, which connects the second fixed part 221 to the support 1 by welding; the second fixed point 221d can also be a riveting column, which can also realize the connection of the second fixed part 221 by inserting the riveting column into the support 1 and then riveting; similarly, the second fixed point 221d can also be a riveting hole, which is connected by being sleeved on the riveting column of the support 1 and then being riveted. The second fixed point 221d can also be other structures, which are not limited in the present application, as long as it can realize the connection of the second fixed part 221 and the support 1. By arranging the second fixed point 221d as shown in the figure, the stable connection of the second fixed part 221 and the support 1 can be ensured, and multiple (two or more) second fixed points 221d can also be arranged at each position as needed to ensure the reliability of the connection.
[0076] With reference to FIGS. 9-11, the embodiment of the present application further provides an electronic device accessory, which can be a mobile phone protective case, a tablet computer protective case, a mobile power supply, a card bag, or the like accessory used in cooperation with an electronic device. In the embodiment, the mobile phone protective case is taken as an example for illustration. As shown in the drawings, the mobile phone protective case comprises an accessory main body 3 and the electronic device support as described above. The accessory main body 3 is provided with a mounting position 32. The first fixing portion 211 of the first hinge 21 is connected with the mounting position 32, so as to mount the electronic device support on the mobile phone protective case.
[0077] Further, the mobile phone protective case comprises a case 31. The mounting position 32 comprises a through hole 321 formed on the case 31 and a mounting portion 322 located at one side of the through hole 321. The first fixing portion 211 is fixedly connected with the mounting portion 322. The first shaft sleeve portion 213 and the first shaft 23 are located at the through hole 321. Specifically, the first hinge 21 can be connected on the inner side of the mobile phone protective case through the through hole 321. The first shaft sleeve portion 213 can be exposed on the outer side of the mobile phone protective case through the through hole 321, so as to be connected with the second hinge 22 located on the outer side of the mobile phone protective case. In other possible embodiments, the first hinge 21 can also be connected on the outer side of the mobile phone protective case. The through hole 321 is used for accommodating the first shaft sleeve portion 213, the first shaft 23 and the second shaft sleeve portion 223, and provides a space for movement of the three.
[0078] In some embodiments, with reference to FIGS. 12-15, the accessory main body 3 further comprises a first fixing member 33. The shape of the mounting portion 322 matches the shape of the first fixing portion 211, i.e. the first fixing portion 211 is provided as a U-shaped structure, and the mounting portion 322 is also provided as a U-shaped structure. Along the thickness direction of the mounting portion 322, the two sides of the mounting portion 322 are respectively provided with a first mounting groove 323 and a second mounting groove 324. The first fixing member 33 is arranged in the first mounting groove 323. The first fixing portion 211 is arranged in the second mounting groove 324. The first fixing member 33 is fixedly connected with the first fixing portion 211. The mounting portion 322 is clamped between the first fixing member 33 and the first fixing portion 211. Specifically, as shown in the drawings, the first fixing member 33 is provided with a plurality of convex columns on the side facing the mounting portion 322. The mounting portion 322 and the first fixing portion 211 are respectively provided with a plurality of holes in a position corresponding to each other. The convex columns sequentially pass through the holes on the mounting portion 322 and the first fixing portion 211. A rivet head is formed at the end of the convex column. The first fixing member 33 can be used to fix the first fixing portion 211 on the mounting portion 322, so as to realize the stable connection of the two.
[0079] Further referring to FIG. 15, in some embodiments, the mounting portion 322 is provided with an avoiding hole 322a, and the first fixing member 33 is provided with an avoiding groove 33a on the side facing the mounting portion 322. In the thickness direction of the shell 31, the first movable portion 212, the avoiding hole 322a, and the avoiding groove 33a are sequentially arranged and in alignment. Since the first movable portion 212 needs to be deformed, by providing the avoiding hole 322a, the avoiding hole 322a can provide space for the deformation of the first movable portion 212 after the first fixed portion 211 is connected with the mounting portion 322, thereby avoiding the mounting portion 322 from blocking the deformation of the first movable portion 212. Further, in order to enable the first movable portion 212 to deform to the maximum extent, in addition to providing the avoiding hole 322a, the avoiding groove 33a can also be concavely provided on the first fixing member 33, thereby further improving the activity space of the first movable portion 212, improving the unloading effect of the first movable portion 212, and increasing the angular range of the rotation of the support member 1.
[0080] In some embodiments, further referring to FIG. 16 and FIG. 17, it is mentioned in the above embodiments that since the first movable portion 212 can be deformed, the rotation shaft 23 and the second hinge 22 can produce a certain displacement in the thickness direction of the first hinge 21 during the rotation, including displacement from the initial position to the upper side of the first hinge 21 and displacement from the initial position to the lower side of the first hinge 21. The lower side of the first hinge 21 is connected with the electronic device or the electronic device accessory, and when the rotation shaft 23 and the second hinge 22 are displaced to the lower side, they will press and impact the electronic device or the electronic device accessory, causing wear and tear, scratches, and the like. In addition to the above-mentioned embodiment of solving the problem by providing the limiting portion 214 on the first hinge 21, another solution is provided in the present embodiment. The accessory body 3 in the present embodiment further includes a second fixing member 34, which is connected to the side of the first fixed portion 211 away from the first fixing member 33, and the second fixing member 34 is also arranged in the second mounting groove 324. At the same time, the second fixing member 34 also covers the opening of the through hole 321 on the inner surface side of the shell 31. The inner surface of the shell 31 is the surface on the side contacting the mobile phone. By covering the opening of the through hole 321 on the inner surface side of the shell 31, the rotation shaft 23 will be blocked by the second fixing member 34 when it moves towards the mobile phone, so as to avoid pressing and impacting the surface of the mobile phone. As shown in the figure, the second fixing member 34 is stacked on the first fixed portion 211, and can be fixed by being connected with the first fixed portion 211, or a riveting hole can be provided, and a riveting column on the first fixing member 33 passes through the riveting hole to fixedly connect the second fixing member 34 with the first fixing member 33. In other embodiments, there can be other connection methods, which will not be listed one by one in the present application.
[0081] Further, with reference to FIG. 17, the mounting position 32 further comprises a third mounting groove 325, and the outer surface of the shell 31 is further provided with a support receiving groove 326, the third mounting groove 325 is recessed in the groove bottom of the support receiving groove 326, and the third mounting groove 325 and the mounting portion 322 are respectively located on the opposite sides of the through hole 321. Meanwhile, one end of the second fixing member 34 protrudes out of the second mounting groove 324 and extends into the third mounting groove 325. The second fixing member 34 needs to block the movement of the rotating shaft 23 towards the mobile phone, and one end thereof needs to protrude out of the second mounting groove 324 and be in a suspended state to be able to block the movement path of the rotating shaft 23. Since one end is suspended, the connection between the first fixing member 33 or the first fixing portion 211 may be loose after being stressed for many times, and therefore one end of the second fixing member 34 is protruded out of the second mounting groove 324 and extends into the third mounting groove 325, and is further fixed in the third mounting groove 325 to ensure the stability of the connection.
[0082] Further, with reference to FIGS. 18-20, in other embodiments, the movement of the rotating shaft 23 can also be blocked by providing a rotating shaft bearing supporting portion 3211a. As shown in the figures, the outer surface of the shell 31 is provided with a support receiving groove 326, and the support receiving groove 326 and the mounting portion 322 are respectively located on the two sides of the through hole 321. The through hole 321 comprises two side walls 3211 located between the support receiving groove 326 and the mounting portion 322 and arranged oppositely. The rotating shaft bearing supporting portion 3211a is arranged on the side wall 3211, and is arranged on the side of the rotating shaft 23 facing the inner surface of the shell 31 to be able to block the movement of the rotating shaft 23 towards the side of the inner surface of the shell 31.
[0083] Specifically, in some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 19, the rotating shaft bearing supporting portion 3211a can be an end wall of a groove recessed on the side wall 3211. The groove extends along the thickness direction of the shell 31 and forms an end wall at one end facing the inner surface of the shell 31. The rotating shaft 23 is located on the end wall, and when the rotating shaft 23 moves towards the inner surface of the shell 31, it will abut against the end wall and thus cannot continue to move. Meanwhile, the other end of the groove penetrates through the outer surface of the shell 31 to ensure that when the rotating shaft 23 moves towards the outer surface of the shell 31, it can move out of the groove. The rotating shaft bearing supporting portion 3211a can also be a protrusion provided on the side wall 3211. The side of the protrusion facing the rotating shaft 23 can also be provided as an arc surface which is adapted to the outer circumferential surface of the rotating shaft 23 to enable the rotating shaft 23 to be located on the arc surface and the protrusion not to affect the normal rotation of the rotating shaft 23.
[0084] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 23, the two ends of the rotating bearing supporting portion 3211 are connected to the two side walls 3211 of the through hole 321 respectively, and the part of the opening of the through hole 321 close to the support receiving groove 326 is shielded. Specifically, the rotating bearing supporting portion 3211a can be a protruding portion protruding from the bottom wall of the support receiving groove 326, one end of the protruding portion is connected to the bottom wall of the support receiving groove 326, specifically, one end of the protruding portion is connected to the side of the bottom wall of the support receiving groove 326, and the other end protrudes into the through hole 321 and shields part of the opening of the through hole 321, thereby blocking the movement of the rotating shaft 23 towards the side of the inner surface of the shell 31. At the same time, the two side edges of the protruding portion between the two ends of the protruding portion are connected to the two side walls 3211 of the through hole 321 respectively, and the upper surface of the protruding portion (i.e. the upper surface of the rotating bearing supporting portion 3211) is arranged to be lower than the surface of the bottom wall of the support receiving groove 326, so that a certain space is formed between the protruding portion and the bottom wall of the support receiving groove 326 for receiving the rotating shaft 23 and the hinge, so that when the support 1 is received, the rotating shaft 23 and the hinge can not protrude from the surface of the electronic device or the electronic device accessory. In other embodiments, the surface of the protruding portion can be flush with the surface of the bottom wall of the support receiving groove 326, which can ensure that the protruding portion has sufficient thickness and strength to block the movement of the rotating shaft 23 towards the side of the inner surface of the shell 31.
[0085] In some embodiments, referring to FIGS. 21 and 22, the outer surface of the shell 31 is provided with a support receiving groove 326, and the support 1 includes a first open state and a second open state. FIG. 21 shows the first open state of the support 1, and FIG. 22 shows the second open state of the support 1. As can be seen from the figures, the rotating angle of the support 1 is larger in the second open state. When in the first open state, the rotating angle of the support 1 is about 90 degrees. At this time, it can be seen that the rotating shaft 23 is located in the support receiving groove 326. As the rotating angle of the support 1 increases, the first movable portion 212 deforms to move the rotating shaft 23 away from the shell 31. When the rotating angle of the support 1 approaches 180 degrees, the support 1 is in the second open state, and at this time the rotating shaft 23 is located outside the support receiving groove 326. Therefore, through the electronic device support structure provided by the embodiments of the present application, during the rotation of the support 1, the first movable portion 212 can unload the force by deforming, so that when the support 1 is subjected to a larger force, the hinge structure will not be damaged or fail. At the same time, the deformation of the first movable portion 212 can move the rotating shaft 23 away from the shell 31, which is equivalent to lifting the height of the support, increasing the gap between the support and the shell. In this case, the support can rotate a larger angle, for example, the support can be rotated to 180 degrees to fit on the shell. Through the increase of the rotating angle, more support angle options are provided for the user, which meets the user's more use scenarios and use requirements.
[0086] In some embodiments, the electronic device accessory can be a mobile phone protective case, the support 1 can be arranged in a circular ring shape, and a plurality of magnets can be arranged in sequence in the circumferential direction of the support 1. When the support 1 is accommodated on the protective case, other accessories such as wireless chargers can be adsorbed on the back of the protective case by the magnets, for charging the mobile phone and other functions. At the same time, a Mylar sheet can be attached to the surface of the magnet, on the one hand to prevent the magnet from falling off, and on the other hand to protect the magnet, making the surface of the product more beautiful. Further, in order to ensure that the support 1 does not affect wireless charging, the support 1 can also be arranged to be formed by splicing a complete circular ring from metal and non-metal parts, or the support 1 can be disconnected in part to form an incomplete circular ring, to avoid the influence of the support 1 on wireless charging. At the same time, in order to protect the hinges (the first hinge and the second hinge) and make them more beautiful, a Mylar sheet or the like can be attached to the surface of the hinges, on the one hand to prevent the hinges from being exposed, and on the other hand to avoid the hinges from being contaminated, oxidized, and the like during use, and on the other hand to make the exposed surface of the product more beautiful.
[0087] The above describes in detail an electronic device support disclosed by the embodiments of the present application. The principles and implementation manners of the present application are described by using examples, and the above description of the embodiments is only used to help understand the electronic device support of the present application and its core idea. Meanwhile, for those skilled in the art, according to the idea of the present application, the specific implementation manners and application ranges can be changed, and the above description of the present application should not be understood as a limitation.
