Mobile Device Clamp Structure for Stable Center-of-Gravity Support
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional mobile phone supports have an unstable clamping assembly due to the gravity center of the base being located on the outer edge of the mounting object, leading to incline or fall issues.
Innovation Solution
A mobile device support with a clamping assembly that includes a supporting column and a sleeve, where the sleeve is movably sleeved on the supporting column, allowing the gravity center of the base to be positioned above the mounting object, enhancing stability.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Shape
If the supporting column is located on the outer edge of the mounting object, then the clamping assembly can be compact, but the gravity center is located on the outer edge causing instability
Solution Approach 1:
The supporting column is extended downward below the mounting object surface, changing the vertical position of the gravity center from the outer edge to a lower position within the mounting object. This dimensional adjustment in the vertical direction resolves the contradiction by maintaining the compact horizontal structure while achieving stable gravity center positioning.
2Stability of the object's composition
If the supporting column is extended below the mounting object, then the gravity center is centered improving stability, but the structure becomes more complex
Solution Approach 1:
The supporting column is integrated directly with the mounting object by extending into it, merging two separate components into one unified structure. This eliminates the need for additional separate support elements or complex assembly mechanisms, achieving stability without proportionally increasing device complexity.
3Adaptability or versatility
If the sleeve is movably sleeved on the supporting column, then the clamping space size is adjustable, but the mechanism becomes more complex
Solution Approach 1:
The sleeve is designed to slide along the supporting column, transforming the static clamping space into a dynamic, adjustable structure. This simple linear movement mechanism provides adaptability for different mounting object sizes without requiring complex adjustment systems, resolving the contradiction between versatility and complexity.

AI summary
A mobile device support relates to a technical field of mobile device peripherals and includes a supporting portion and a clamping assembly. The supporting portion is configured to support a mobile device. A first part of the clamping assembly is configured to support the supporting portion. A second part of the clamping assembly is assembled on a mounting object. a connecting plate is disposed on the clamping assembly. The connecting plate is a flat, arc-shaped, or semi-circular connecting plate. After the mounting object is inserted into a clamping space, a supporting column is located above the mounting object, so that a gravity center of the clamping assembly is located on the mounting object, thus improving stability of the mobile device support. The present disclosure solves problems of poor stability and easy tilting or falling of a clamping assembly of an existing mobile device support.
