Description

A magnetic holder
The present invention relates to a magnetic holder for holding an object, the magnetic holder comprising a first holder part and a second holder part, the first holder part and the second holder part capable of being attached to each other by magnetic attraction, wherein: - the first holder part defines - a first face for contacting the second holder part when the first holder part is magnetically attached to the second holder part, and - a second face at which the object can be provided for holding the object by the magnetic holder; said first holder part comprising a first magnetic organ; - the second holder part defines - a first surface for contacting the first face of the first holder part when the first holder part is magnetically attached to the second holder part; - a second surface for mounting the magnetic holder; said second holder part comprising a second magnetic organ; wherein at least one magnetic organ of the first magnetic organ and the second magnetic organ is a magnet.
A magnetic holder according to the preamble is known, for example for holding a cell phone as the object. This allows the cell phone to be easily removably mounted to a surface of, for example a wall. It can be easily removed from said surface, typically together with the first holder part. The term "magnetic organ" means a magnet or capable of being attracted by a magnet. If the magnetic organ is a magnet, it may be an electromagnet but it is preferably a permanent magnet. If the magnetic organ is not a magnet, it comprises a material that is attracted by the magnet, such as iron or nickel. The magnetic organs comprised in the magnetic holder parts allow the first holder part to be removably attached to the second holder part when the first face of said first holder part is in contact with the first surface of the second holder part.
More specifically a magnetic holder according to the preamble is known from US patent 6,888,940, which discloses a magnetic holder for holding an object (e.g. a cell phone) and mounting it to a surface (e.g. a car dashboard). Said magnetic holder comprises two holder parts : - a first holder part comprising a ferromagnetic plate capable of being attached to the cell phone; - a second holder part capable of being mounted on the car dashboard, said second holder part comprising a cup that encloses a magnet on all sides except one open side that faces the ferromagnetic plate and that is defined by an edge to which said cell phone is retained by magnetic attraction between said magnet and the ferromagnetic plate.
A drawback of the magnetic holder is that if it is used to hold a cell phone, it poses limitations on its use by the user.
The present application aims to provide a magnetic holder according to the preamble that reduces this problem.
To this end, a magnetic holder according to the preamble is characterized in that the first surface of the second holder part comprises a first contact area and a second contact area for contacting the first face of the first holder part, the first contact area and the second contact area being at most partly overlapped, wherein - when the first holder part is attached to the second holder part at the first contact area, three points on the first face of the first holder part can be chosen where the first face is in contact with the first surface of the second holder part, said three points defining a first plane; and - when the first holder part is attached to the second holder part at the second contact area, said chosen three points define a second plane, the first plane and the second plane being at an angle a.
Thus a magnetic holder is provided wherein the first holder part may be placed in more than one orientation, i.e. wherein the first plane and the second plane are tilted relative to one another. As a result the object held by said first holder part can be held by the magnetic holder according to the present invention in more than one tilt orientation. This is, for example, convenient to access buttons on the cell phone when it is held by the magnetic holder. Legibility can be improved by tilting the screen towards the user. Instead or alternatively, the screen can be tilted such that light such as sunlight reflected by the display is less of a hindrance to the user. With the magnetic holder according to the present invention, the same mechanism that allows for releasably holding the first holder part, allows it to be positioned at different tilt angles. The first surface supports the first holder part at the first face and thus the object held by said first holder part. Since the first face of the first holding part can be placed at two different contact areas of the first surface of the second holding part, the object held by the first holder part can be oriented differently by just placing said first holder part at a different contact area of the second surface. With the magnetic holder mounted to a surface such as a wall, the tilt orientation of the object held by the magnetic holder may be chosen by the user to the one the adapts best to his/her needs by just selecting the contact area on the second holder part. The angle a is preferably at least 2°, such as at least 5°, more preferably at least 10°.
According to a favourable embodiment, the first surface of the second holder part is curved.
Thus, the first holder part, and hence the object held by said first holder part, may be oriented at a range of different angles. The curve defined by the first surface may be concave or convex. The cross-section through the first surface of the second holder part is for example, parabolic, hyperbolic or corresponds to a part of a circle circumference. The shape defined by the first surface may be for example a segment of a cylinder. The first surface being curved provides for a gradual transition, allowing a user to tilt the object at a desired tilt angle by simply moving the first holder part to a different contact area of the first surface while said first holder part is attached to the second holder part.
According to a favourable embodiment, the first surface of the second holder part is curved in three dimensions.
The first holder part may be then oriented in a wider range of tilt angles, for example not only left and right but also up and down. The shape defined by the first surface may be for example a segment of a sphere. The user may then select the desired orientation by simply pushing the first holder part magnetically attached to the second holder part to a different contact area of the first surface. The first surface being curved in three dimensions also allows the object to be rotationally oriented in landscape or portrait orientation without further mechanism.
According to a favourable embodiment, the curvature of the first surface of the second holder part is convex, and there is a recess between the three points of the first face of the first holder part.
This makes it easier to hold relatively large objects by the first holder part.
According to a favourable embodiment, the second holder part comprises a magnet as the second magnetic organ.
The magnet comprised in the second holder part creates the magnetic field that produces the magnetic attraction that results in the magnetic attachment of said first holder part and the second holder part. The magnet is preferably a permanent magnet. The bigger the magnet is, the stronger the magnetic field is and thus the first holder part and the second holder part are more strongly attracted to each other, securing reliable attachment in particular if the object is relatively heavy, such as a tablet computer. Since the user pulls the first holder part away and the second holder part is mounted to a surface, it is advantageous if the magnet is comprised within the second holder part, as this allows the weight of the first magnetic organ of the first holder part and hence of the total first holder part to be relatively low. Thus, the first magnetic organ comprised in the first holder part magnetically attracted to said magnet may be a paramagnetic plate or a relatively small magnet (compared to the magnetic organ of the second holder part).
According to a favourable embodiment, the second holder part has a chamber and the second magnetic organ is caged within the chamber, said second magnetic organ being capable of moving in said chamber between a first position where it is relatively close to the first contact area and relatively far from the second contact area and a second position where it is relatively close to the second contact area and relatively far to the first contact area when the first face moves across said first surface from the first contact area to the second contact area.
This allows for the use of a relatively small magnet as the second magnetic organ, or to securely attach a first holder part with a relatively heavy object. The chamber is designed to allow the second magnetic organ contained in the second holder part to be relatively close to the first magnetic organ comprised in the first holder part when the first face is contacted with the first surface. Thus, the magnetic attachment is achieved. If the first face is moved over the first surface, the second magnetic organ caged within said chamber can follow the first magnetic organ thus keeping said second magnetic organ relatively close to the first magnetic organ. The chamber is also designed to maintain the magnetic attachment when the first face is moved across the first surface. The second magnetic organ is for example pivotably held within said chamber. Pivoting allows said second magnetic organ to be oriented towards the first magnetic organ of the first holder part when the first face is in contact with the first surface. The second magnetic organ is preferably a permanent magnent.
According to a favourable embodiment, the second magnetic organ is a ball magnet caged within the chamber of the second holder part.
Thus it is not necessary to mount the magnet within the second holder part, allowing for a simple design. The ball magnet rolls within the chamber when the first face of the first holder part moves across the first surface of the second holder part to be relatively close to the first magnetic organ comprised in the first holder part. The chamber is then designed not only to obtain the magnetic attachment when the first face is brought into contact with the first surface but also to maintain said magnetic attachment when the first holder part is moved with its first face across the first surface. For example, if the first surface is convex, the chamber will have a concave inner surface along which the ball magnet will roll and thus stay relatively close to the first magnetic organ when the first holder part is moved with its first face across the first surface.
According to a favourable embodiment, the second magnetic organ is tapered and oriented towards the distal end of the second holder part facing away from the second surface.
Compared to the alternative of a rectangular magnet in the second holder part, the first holder part is less likely to move in an unintended manner, in particular if the first surface is curved and the first face is in an area of the first surface remote from the distal end of the first surface away.
According to a favourable embodiment, the second magnetic organ is a stack of magnetic disks.
Thus it is easy to provide magnetic force relatively close to the first surface of the second holder part at relatively low cost.
According to a favourable embodiment, the second surface defined by the second holder part comprises a means for mounting the second holder part of said magnetic holder to a surface.
Thus, the magnetic holder may be mounted to a surface, for example a wall. The means may be a screw if the magnetic holder is to be fixed permanently. The screw employed is made of a material with a low magnetic response to decrease any interference of said screw with the magnet comprised within the chamber of the second holder part, such as for example austenitic stainless steel or copper. A double-sided adhesive tape or a suction pad may be used instead if the magnetic holder is not to be fixed to a surface permanently.
According to a favourable embodiment, the magnetic holder further comprises an organ capable of increasing the friction between the first face of the first holder part and the first surface of the second holder part when said first face moves across said first surface.
Thus, the security of attachment of the first holder part to the second holder part is increased. The organ may be comprised in the first face, in the first surface or in both of them, such as for example a rubber ring comprised in the first face or a rubber coating delimiting the first surface of the second holder part. If the friction organ is a ring, the three points will be on the ring. Said organ reduces the risk of unintended movement of the first holder part downwards due to gravity forces when said first holder part is magnetically attached to the second holder part by increasing the friction that results from the movement of the first face defined by said first holder part across the first surface defined by said second holder part.
According to a favourable embodiment, the second holder part comprises a body and a base, that can be removably connected.
Thus, the magnetic holder may more easily be mounted to a surface, for example a wall where said magnetic holder is to be placed, because the base can be mounted first, and only then the body is attached to the base. The body comprises then the first surface and the base comprises the second surface. The means employed to mount the magnetic holder to the surface can be more easily hidden. For example the second surface may be easily mounted to a surface by using an screw to connect the base to a surface such as a wall. Then the body is attached to said base .
According to a favourable embodiment, the body and the base are detachably connected by a screw thread.
Thus, the first surface comprised in the body is easily secured to the second surface that is comprised in the base in a very robust way. This is important, since the first surface of the second holder part deals with the weight of the first holder part and the object held by said first holder part.
The present invention will now be illustrated with reference to the drawing where
Fig. 1 shows a cross-sectional side view of a magnetic holder mounted to a wall and holding an object;
Fig. 2 shows a cross-sectional side view of the magnetic holder depicted in Fig. 1 in a detached stated;
Fig. 3 shows a cross-sectional side view of the magnetic holder depicted in Fig. 2 in a magnetically attached stated;
Fig. 4 shows a cross-sectional side view of the magnetic holder of Fig 1. with a different orientation of the object; and
Fig. 5 shows a cross-sectional side view of an alternative magnetic holder.
Fig. 1 shows a cross-sectional view of a magnetic holder 100, mounted to a wall 195. The magnetic holder 100 holds an object 190, in particular smartphone comprised in a sleeve 191.
Fig. 2 shows a cross-sectional view of the magnetic holder 100 of Fig. 1 in a detached state. Said magnetic holder 100 comprises a first holder part 210 and a second holder part 220.
The first holder part 210 defines a first face 211 and a second face 212. The first face 211 comprises a first magnetic organ 214, here an iron plate 214, and a rubber ring 215. The second face 212 of the first holder part 210 comprises a double-sided adhesive tape 213 for attaching the object 190. Adhesive tape 213 is not necessarily a part of the magnetic holder 100 as it could be sold separately. Also, the sleeve 191 could be an integral part of the first holder part 210.
The second holder part 220 comprises a body 229 and a base 230.
The body 229 may be attached and detached from the base 230 by a screw thread 228. Said second holder part 220 defines a first surface 221 and a second surface 222. Also, the second holder part 220 has a chamber 223 that contains a second magnetic organ 224, in this case a ball magnet 224 caged in the chamber 223. The second holder part 220 also comprises a double-sided adhesive tape 225 or a screw 226 or both of them, giving a user a choice for mounting the magnetic holder 100 to a surface. The size of the chamber 223 may be reduced by a filling piece 227, said filling piece 227 being fixed in the interior of the chamber 223 of the body 229. This ensures that the second magnetic organ 224 can easily attract the first magnetic organ 214, or vice versa. The body 229 and/or the base 230 are for example made of aluminium or plastic, which do not interfere with the magnetic attraction between the first magnetic organ 214 and the second magnetic organ 224.
In the present invention, the use of permanent magnets is preferred, in particular strong permanent magnets such as rare-earth magnets .
Fig. 3 shows a cross-sectional view of the magnetic holder 100 of Fig. 2 when the first holder part 210 is magnetically attached to the second holder part 220. The iron plate 214 is concave and is adapted to the curvature of the first surface 221 of the second holder part 220, which is convex. The ball magnet 224 and the iron plate 214 interact magnetically, as a result of which the ball magnet 224 moves close to the iron plate 214. Thus, the first holder part 210 is magnetically attached to the first surface 221 of the second holder part 220.
The first holder part 210 is thus removably supported. The user may remove the first holder part 210 by gripping said first holder part 210 and pulling it away from the second holder part 220 with enough force to overcome the magnetic attraction between the ball magnet 224 and the iron plate 214. Conversely, said object 190 may be magnetically attached by contacting the first face 211 of the first holder part 210 and the first surface 221 of the second holder part 220. The user may also move said first holder part 210 across the first surface 221 of the second holder part 220. The chamber 223 has a concave inner surface, allowing the ball magnet 224 to roll along said concave inner surface so as to maintain said ball magnet 224 relatively close to the iron plate 214 when the first holder part 210 is moved across the first surface 221 of the second holder part 220, thus maintaining firm magnetic attachment.
The first face 211 further comprises a rubber ring 215 that surrounds the iron plate 214 and thus increases the friction created by the movement of the first holder part 210 across the second holder part 220. The rubber ring 215 enhances the security of attachment of the first holder part 210 to the second holder part 220 because it reduces unintended movement of the first holder part 210 due to downward gravity forces by increasing the friction, or by vibrations such as in a car.
Fig. 4 shows the magnetic holder 100 of Fig 3 mounted to the wall 195 while holding a smartphone 190, which is achieved by the double-sided adhesive tape 213 comprised in the second face 212 of the first holder part 210. The first holder part 210 is located at a different contact area of the first surface 221 of the second holder part 220 compared to the one in Fig. 1, resulting in a different tilt orientation of the smartphone 190. So as to support the first holder part 210 at this different contact area, the ball magnet 224 has rolled within the chamber 223 due to the magnetic attraction between said ball magnet 224 to the iron plate 214 while maintaining the magnetic attachment.
The second holder part 220 comprises a means for mounting the magnetic holder 100 to the wall 195. This means may be for example the double-sided adhesive tape 225 or the screw 226. The material employed for the screw 226 is one with a low magnetic response to decrease any interference with the ball magnet 224 comprised within the chamber 223, such as for example austenitic stainless steel or copper.
The size of the chamber 223 may be reduced by using the filling piece 227 to ensure that the ball magnet 224 is relatively close to the iron plate 214 when the first holder part 210 contacts the second holder part 220. This is convenient when the object 190 to be held by the first holder part 210 is a relatively large object, for example an iPad. In such a case the body 229 comprised in the second holder part 220 is also large with respect the first surface 221 to allow a wide range of tilt angles of the first holder part 210, avoiding said object 190 to be blocked by the surface such as the wall to which the magnetic holder is mounted. If the chamber 223 were too big the ball magnet 224 may be far away from the iron plate 214 when the first holder part 210 contacts the second holder part 220 and then magnetic attachment is not achieved. This problem is avoided by reducing the size of the chamber 223 by using the filling piece 227.
Since the body 229 may be detached from the base 230 by the screw thread 228, said base 230 may be mounted to the wall 195 first and then the body 229 is attached to said base 230 in a very robust way.
Fig. 5 shows a magnetic holder 100 comprising all the components showed in Fig. 2 but where the second magnetic organ 224 comprised in the second holder part 220 is a stack of magnetic disks 524. Said stack is tapered and oriented towards the distal end of the second holder part 220 away from the second surface 222. Thus, the first holder part 210 may be magnetically attached to the second holder part 220 avoiding unintended movement due to downward gravity forces in a very easy and cheap way.
The present invention can be varied within the scope of the appended claims. For example, the second holder may have the shape of a cylinder or a sphere having a relatively large diameter provided with an arm with a relatively small diameter. This allows tilt angle movement of the object over more than 180°, which is not possible with a ball-and-socket joint.
