The invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Please refer to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 together for a partial schematic view of the housing 11 of the mobile terminal 1. The mobile terminal 1 includes a housing 11. An accommodating cavity 111 is formed in the housing 11. The accommodating cavity 111 is formed by a side wall 112, a bottom surface 113, and other side walls (not shown). An opening 114 and a button hole 115 are defined in the sidewall 112. The opening 114 and the button hole 115 are connected to the receiving cavity 111.

A holding device 2 is received in the accommodating chamber 111. The holding device 2 includes a tray 21, a driving assembly 22 and a button 23.

The upper surface 211 of the tray 21 is recessed to form a card slot 212 for receiving a card 3. A side wall 213 of the tray 21 defines a rack 214. The tray 21 further includes a shoulder 215. When one end of the tray 21 is received in the accommodating cavity 111 through the opening 114, the shoulder 215 of the tray 21 is received in the opening 114.

2 and 3, the drive assembly 22 is fixed to the bottom surface 113 of the housing 11, and the drive assembly 22 drives the tray 21 to move. Specifically, the drive assembly 22 includes a rotating shaft 221, a gear 222, and a torsion spring 223. The rotating shaft 221 is rotatably fixed to the bottom surface of the casing 11. The gear 222 is rotatably disposed on the bottom surface 113 of the casing 11 through the rotating shaft 221, and the gear 222 and the rack on the tray 21 214 meshed. The torsion spring 223 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 221 , and the torsion spring 223 includes a first abutting arm 2231 and a second abutting arm 2232 . The first abutting arm 2231 abuts against the gear 222 , and the second abutting arm 2232 abuts against the bottom surface 113 of the casing 11 .

The rotating shaft 221 includes a substantially cylindrical rotating shaft body 2211 and a rotating arm 2212 extending outward from the outer wall of the rotating shaft body 2211. In the present embodiment, the axis of the rotating arm 2212 is perpendicular to the axis of the rotating shaft body 2211. In other embodiments, the axis of the rotating arm 2212 may not be perpendicular to the axis of the rotating shaft body 2211. A receiving hole 1131 is defined in the bottom surface 113 of the housing 11 at a position corresponding to the rotating shaft body 2211. A protrusion 1132 is further disposed on the bottom surface 113 of the housing 11, and the protrusion 1132 is disposed beside the receiving hole 1131.

The gear 222 is provided with a central hole 2221, and a lower surface 2222 of the gear 222 is provided with a protrusion 2223.

One end of the spindle body 2211 is fixedly coupled to the gear 222 through a center hole 2221 of the gear 222. The other end of the shaft body 2211 is rotatably received in the receiving hole 1131 of the bottom surface 113.

Referring to FIG. 3 , the torsion spring 223 is sleeved on the shaft body 2211 and located between the gear 222 and the rotating arm 2212 . The first abutting arm 2231 of the torsion spring 223 abuts against the protrusion 2223 of the gear 222 , and the second abutting arm 2232 abuts against the protrusion 1132 of the bottom surface 113 of the housing 11 . Further, when the gear 222 is rotated, the torsion spring 223 is compressed, and the torsion spring 223 is compressed regardless of whether the gear 222 is rotated forward or reverse.

Referring again to FIGS. 1 and 3, one end of the button 23 is exposed to the button hole 115, and the other end is rotatably coupled to the rotating arm 2212. Specifically, the button body 23 includes a button body 231 and a pushing arm 232. In the embodiment, the button body 231 and the pushing arm 232 are integrated. In other embodiments, the button body 231 and the button body 231 The push arm 232 is two components that are assembled together. The button body 231 is partially exposed to the outside of the side wall 112 through the button hole 115 , and the pushing arm 232 is rotatably connected to the free end 2213 of the rotating arm 2212 . Moreover, the free end 2213 of the rotating arm 2212 is provided with a retaining slot 2214 for providing a certain amount of the pushing arm 232 of the button 23 when the button 23 drives the rotating shaft 221 to rotate. The bit space prevents the button 23 and the rotating shaft 221 from interfering with each other.

When the tray 21 is in the accommodating state, the torsion spring 223 is in a natural state, and the angle between the rotating arm 2212 of the driving assembly 22 rotatably connected to the pushing arm 232 of the button 23 is close to a right angle, and the gear of the driving assembly 22 The 222 is engaged with the rack 214 of the tray 21, and the tray 21 is locked in the accommodating chamber 111.

In the present embodiment, the rack 214 is disposed on the left side wall 2131 of the tray 21 . The driving component 22 is disposed on the left side of the tray 21 and is engaged with the rack 214 . The button 23 is disposed on the driving component 22 . On the left side, the button hole 115 is disposed on the left side of the opening 114.

In another embodiment, the rack 214 is disposed on the right side wall 2132 of the tray 21. The driving component 22 is disposed on the right side of the tray 21 and is engaged with the rack 214. The button 23 is disposed on the driving component. The right side of 22, and the button hole 115 is provided on the right side of the opening 114.

Referring to FIG. 4 together, if the card 3 is to be taken out from the mobile terminal 1 or a new card 3 is placed, the button body 231 of the button 23 is pressed to bring the button 23 toward the side close to the rotating arm 2212. Movement, and the button body 231 pushes the rotating arm 2212 to drive the rotating shaft body 2211 to rotate in the receiving hole 1131. Since the rotating shaft body 2211 is fixedly coupled to the gear 222, the rotation of the rotating arm 2212 drives the gear 222. Rotating, the rotation of the gear 222 drives the tray 21 having the rack 214 to move toward the opening 114 until a portion of the tray 21 is exposed to the outside of the housing 11. The torsion spring 223 is compressed as the gear 222 rotates.

After the card 3 is taken out from the mobile terminal 1 or the card 3 is placed, pressure is applied to the button body 231, and the elastic restoring force of the torsion spring 223 causes the gear 222 to move in the opposite direction, driving and The rack 214 engaged by the gear 222 moves in a direction away from the opening 114, and the specific movement process is opposite to the above-mentioned opening movement process, and details are not described herein again.

It should also be noted that other cards provided on the mobile terminal, such as an SD card (Secure Digital Card), may also be used when the card slot for accommodating these cards has a cover for dustproof or other purposes. The insertion and removal of these cards is facilitated by the ejection mechanism provided by the present invention.

The holding device 2 of the invention has the advantages of simple structure, reliable buckle, convenient insertion and removal of the card 3, no need for a thimble, no need to open the back cover, and no need to take out the battery, just press the button 23, and it is convenient to use. .

It is to be understood that those skilled in the art can make various other changes and modifications in accordance with the technical concept of the present invention, and all such changes and modifications are intended to fall within the scope of the appended claims.
