[0003] CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

[0004] This application claims the benefit of priority from U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 63 / 760,308, filed February 19, 2025 and entitled “HOLDER FOR PORTABLE DEVICE”, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.

[0005] FIELD OF TECHNOLOGY

[0006] The present disclosure relates to a holding mechanism, and more particularly, to a holder for a portable device.

[0007] BACKGROUND

[0008] A personal portable device represented by a portable phone has become a necessity which is owned by each person. Various portable devices, such as vehicle navigators, multimedia players, portable broadcasting receivers and digital cameras / camcorders, as well as the portable phones are commonly used, and various accessory industries for portable devices are also developing together. In particular, a holder for holding a portable device is used for holding the portable device during driving or during study or business hours.

[0009] However, although portable devices made by different makers may provide the same or similar functions, the portable devices have different sizes from each other. Therefore, when a user replaces his / her portable phone with a different model, the user must replace a holder which was purchased for the portable phone. Therefore, when the usable holder is replaced, it may result in an unnecessary cost. Furthermore, when the usable holder is discarded, it is a waste of resources.

[0010] Furthermore, when a portable device is attached to or detached from an existing holder, a user must manipulate a plurality of buttons or apply a physical force, which may make the user feel uncomfortable. When a physical force is applied, an impact may be transmitted to the portable device. Thus, the operating mechanism of the holder is desirable to be simple.

[0011] SUMMARY

[0012] An embodiment of the present disclosure is directed to a holder for mounting and detaching a portable device.

[0013] Another embodiment of the present disclosure is directed to a holder for stably holding a portable device using a simple structure.

[0040] DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0041] Those of ordinary skill in the art will realize that the following description is illustrative only and is not intended to be in any way limiting. Other aspects will readily suggest themselves to those skilled in the art having the benefit of this disclosure. Reference will now be made in detail to implementations of the example aspects as illustrated in the accompanying drawings. The same reference indicators will be used to the extent possible throughout the drawings and the following description to refer to the same or like items.

[0042] The portable device holder of the present disclosure provides a one touch mechanism to load the portable device onto the holder by one button, wherein the portable device can push the one button to close side arms to receive and hold the portable device.

[0043] Furthermore, the portable device holder of the present disclosure provides a mechanism wherein operating such as releasing the portable device from the holder is achieved by one push switch instead of two side switches as in the conventional mechanism.Docket No. 043417.00249

[0044] This device is designed to assist users in mounting their mobile devices. It allows users to check their mobile devices while driving. The improved idea involves a one-touch method in the mobile device holder product, which makes it easier for users to mount their devices. Previously, the one-touch method required users to press both arms simultaneously to secure the device. This has been improved so that moving just one arm will cause both to move and secure the device. Now, users can hold the device in one hand and easily mount it.

[0045] Referring to FIG. 1, the holder 1 according to the embodiment of the present disclosure includes a main body 30 having a front surface portion 12 on which a portable device is received. The main body 30 includes a front cover 10 and a rear cover 20, and optionallly be formed to have substantially a rectangular cross-section or like when seen at the side of the front surface portion 12.

[0046] Furthermore, the main body 30 has a first switch 610 formed at a designated position of the front surface portion 12, and the first switch 610 protrudes to the outside of the front surface portion 12 from the inside of the main body 30. The first switch 610 may include a push switch, for example. The first switch 610 is pushed to the inside by a pressure which is applied when the portable device is held on the front surface portion 12. Furthermore, an operation of pulling the first switch 610 is performed by first and second buttons 420 and / or 520 which will be described below. The detailed descriptions of the operation will be made below.

[0047] Meanwhile, the main body 30 has first and second arms 410 and 510 formed at both side surfaces thereof. The first and second arms 410 and 510 have a distance from each other, which is varied by a push / pull operation of the first switch 610. When the first switch 610 is pushed to the inside of the main body 30, the distance between the first and second arms 410 and 510 is decreased toward the inside the main body such that the portable device is fixed on the front surface portion 12 by the first and second arms 410 and 510. Furthermore, when the first switch 610 is pulled from the main body 30 by a pressurizing operation of the first and / or second buttons 420 and 520 which will be described below, the distance between the first and second arms 410 and 510 is increased, so that the user may detach the portable device from the holder.

[0048] The first and second buttons 420 and 520 form a second switch. The first button 420 is physically connected to the first arm 410 inside the main body 30. Therefore, when the first arm 410 is moved to the inside of the main body 30, the first button 420 protrudes to the outside of the body 30. Similarly, when the second arm 510 is moved to the inside of the main body 30, the second button 520 protrudes to the outside of the main body 30.

[0049] In the holder 1 for a portable device, when the portable device is closely attached to the front surface portion 12, the first switch 610 is pushed to the inside of the main body 30.Docket No. 043417.00249

[0050] Accordingly, the distance between the first and second arms 410 and 510 is decreased to fix the portable device. At the same time, the first and second buttons 420 and 520 protrude to the outside. In this state, when the first and second buttons 420 and / or 520 are pressurized toward the inside of the main body 30, the distance between the first and second arms 410 and 510 is increased toward the outside of the main body 30, and the first switch 610 protrudes. Then, the user may detach the portable device from the holder 1.

[0051] FIG. 2 is a perspective view of a holder 2 for a portable device according to another embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0067] FIG. 8 provides a diagram for explaining a mechanism for holding and releasing aDocket No. 043417.00249

[0068] portable device using the holder according to the holders 1 , 2 or 2a.

[0069] First, in a state where there is no portable device is held on a portable device holders 1 or 2, the first switch 610 is protruded to the outside of the front surface portion 12, and the other sides of the first and second arm moving shafts 430 and 530 are closely attached to both sides of the pressurization plate 612 so as to compress the first and second elastic members 460 and 560. Accordingly, the first and second arms 410 and 510 are protruded to the outside of the main body, and the first and second buttons 420 and 520 are pushed to the inside of the main body.

[0070] When the portable device 3 is to be fixed to the holder 1 or 2, the portable device 3 is closely attached to the front surface portion 12 in the front surface side of the holder 1 or 2 as illustrated in FIG. 8. Then, the first switch 610 is pressurized, and the pressurization plate 612 compresses the third elastic member 620. Accordingly, the first and second elastic members 460 and 560 are restored to move the first and second arm moving shafts 430 and 530 to the inside of the main body, and the distance between the first and second arms 410 and 510 is decreased to fix the portable device 4 on the holder 1 or 2. Simultaneously, the first and second button moving shafts 440 and 540 are moved to protrude the first and second buttons 420 and 530 to the outside of the main body.

[0071] When the portable device 3 is to be detached from the holder 1 or 2, the first and second buttons 420 and 520 are pushed to the inside of the main body. Then, while the first and second elastic members 460 and 560 are compressed, the distance between the first and second arm moving shafts 430 and 530, that is, the distance between the first and second arms 410 and 510 is increased, and the first switch 610 is protruded by the restoring force of the third elastic member 620.

[0072] Meanwhile, before the portable device 3 is held as illustrated in FIGS. 8 and 9, the bracket 70 may be moved downward from the main body to sufficiently secure a space for holding the portable device 3. After the portable device 3 is fixed by the first and second arms 410 and 510, the bracket 70 may be moved upward, and the knob 92 may be tightened to further stably maintain the fixed state of the portable device 3. Furthermore, since a cable for connecting the portable device 3 to an external device may be passed through the opening 722 of the bracket 70, the portable device 3 and the external device may be stably connected to each other through the external connection cable without physical stress.

[0073] As such, potable devices having various widths may be held by the first and second arms 410 and 510, and stably fixed by the bracket 70. Furthermore, since the bracket 70 is formed to move left and right and / or up and down, various types of portable devices may be held regardless of the lengths of the portable devices.

[0074] Therefore, when a portable device was replaced, a holder for a new portable device is not needed separately. Accordingly, the holder according to the embodiment of theDocket No. 043417.00249

[0075] present disclosure has an advantage in cost and resource saving.

[0076] In another embodiment of the present disclosure, the rear cover 20 may further include a coupling unit 250 formed on the rear surface portion thereof. Through the coupling unit 250, the holder 1 or 2 according to the embodiment of the present disclosure may be coupled to an adhesion-type holder (not illustrated). Accordingly, when the adhesion-type holder is fixed to a dashboard or front window of a vehicle and a portable device is mounted on the holder 1 or 2, the portable device may be freely used while driving.

[0077] According to the embodiment of the present disclosure, a portable device may be stably mounted on the holder only by a simple operation of contacting the portable device with a holding surface.

[0078] FIG. 10 illustrates a mechanism of a portable device holder to open both arms by pushing both buttons. The portable device mounted on the holder may be released by a simple operation of pressing the buttons at both sides of the holder. Therefore, it is possible to stably mount or release the portable device, without performing a troublesome manipulation or applying a physical force.
