Figure 1 shows a schematic diagram of the mobile device holder 100 fixing the mobile device module 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention, and Figure 2 shows the mobile device holder 100 releasing the mobile device module in Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the group 10, FIG. 3 is a front view of the mobile device holder 100 of FIG. 1, and FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view of the mobile device holder 100 of FIG. 3 along the direction 4-4'. The mobile device holder 100 is, for example, a mobile device holder for a vehicle, or a mobile device holder that can be used in other situations (such as a home environment, an office environment, and a public place).

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 4, the mobile device bracket 100 includes an engaging member 110 and a base 120. The base 120 includes a pivot member 121 and a base 122. The base 122 has an accommodating space 122r, and the accommodating space 122r is used for accommodating a mobile device module 10. The engaging member 110 is pivotally connected to the pivotal member 121 and includes a hook 111 for engaging the recess 10r of the mobile device module 10 accommodated in the accommodating space 122r, as shown in FIG. 1. When the hook 111 is engaged with the recess 10r, the engaging member 110 can rotate relative to the base 120, so that the hook 111 releases the recess 10r, as shown in FIG. 2. In this way, the engaging member 110 selectively engages or releases the mobile device module 10 in a rotating manner, so that the mobile device module 10 and the mobile device bracket 100 can be selectively separated or fixed.

In addition, in the embodiment, the mobile device module 10 can be selectively engaged or released by operating only one engaging member 110, so the user can operate the mobile device module 10 with one hand. A single engaging member 110 can selectively engage or release the mobile device module 10 to achieve the technical effect of quickly engaging or releasing the mobile device module 10.

As shown in FIG. 4, the mobile device module 10 has a top surface 10u, and the concave portion 10r is recessed relative to the top surface 10u. In other words, the hook 111 is engaged with the top surface of the mobile device module 10, but the embodiment of the present invention is not limited to this. In this embodiment, the mobile device module 10 includes a mobile device 11 and a protective cover 12, and the aforementioned recess 10 r is provided on the protective cover 12. For example, the recess 10r is a top groove or a through hole of the protective cover 12. In another embodiment, the aforementioned recess 10r may be provided in the casing of the mobile device 11.

As shown in FIG. 4, the engaging member 110 has a side surface 110s and at least one protrusion 112, and the protrusion 112 protrudes from the side surface 110s.

The hook 111 has an inclined surface 111s, the inclined surface 111s is adjacent to the side surface 110s and the normal direction N1 of the inclined surface 111s passes through the recess 10r. In the embodiment, the normal direction N2 of the side surface 110s does not pass through the recess 10r, so the protrusion 112 on the side surface 110s can be exposed laterally more clearly, which is more convenient for the user to operate the protrusion 112.

As shown in FIG. 4, the engaging member 110 has a groove 110r, and the groove 110r is adjacent to the hook 111. The mobile device holder 100 further includes a buffer 128, which is disposed in the groove 110r. When the engaging member 110 is engaged with the mobile device module 10, the top of the mobile device module 10 can abut against the buffer member 128, so that when the mobile device bracket 100 equipped with the mobile device module 10 is shaken, The buffer 128 can absorb vibration energy to prevent the mobile device module 10 from being easily separated from the mobile device bracket 100.

Please refer to Figures 5 and 6, which shows the mobile device bracket of Figure 1 An exploded view of 100 at different viewing angles (the front cover 1221 is not shown in Figure 6).

As shown in Figs. 5 and 6, the engaging member 110 may be a multi-piece type. For example, the engaging member 110 may include an upper cover 113 and a lower cover 114, and the upper cover 113 and the lower cover 114 may be combined by temporary or permanent bonding methods such as snapping, locking, and bonding. In addition, the upper cover 113 and the lower cover 114 can be fabricated separately and then assembled together, which can reduce the manufacturing difficulty of the engaging element 110 and increase the manufacturability of the engaging element 110.

In addition, the pivotal member 121 is connected to the base 122. For example, the pivotal member 121 can be fixed to the base 122 through temporary or permanent bonding methods such as snapping, locking, and bonding.

As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the pivoting member 121 further includes a pivoting shaft 1214. In detail, the pivoting member 121 includes a pivoting body 1211, a first pivoting portion 1212, and a second pivoting portion 1213. The first pivot portion 1212 and the second pivot portion 1213 are connected to the pivot body 1211. The engaging member 110 has a first through hole 110a1 and a second through hole 110a2. The first pivoting portion 1212 and the second pivoting portion 1213 have a first pivoting hole 1212a and a second pivoting hole 1213a, respectively. The pivot shaft 1214 passes through the first through hole 110a1, the second through hole 110a2, the first pivot hole 1212a, and the second pivot hole 1213a, so that the engaging member 110 can rotate relative to the pivot member 121 through the pivot shaft 1214 .

As shown in FIG. 5, the extension axis A1 of the first pivot portion 1212 and the extension axis A2 of the second pivot portion 1213 are substantially coaxial. In this way, the pivot shaft 1214 extending linearly can pass through the first pivot hole 1212 a and the second pivot hole 1213 a that are coaxially arranged. In one embodiment, the pivot shaft 1214 and the first through hole 110a1 And the second through hole 110a2 are loosely fitted, and tightly fitted with the first pivot hole 1212a and the second pivot hole 1213a. In this way, the engaging member 110 and the pivotal member 121 can rotate relatively (due to a loose fit) and are not easily separated (due to a tight fit). In another embodiment, the pivot shaft 1214 is loosely fitted with the first pivot hole 1212a and the second pivot hole 1213a, and is tightly fitted with the first through hole 110a1 and the second through hole 110a2. In this way, the engaging member 110 and the pivotal member 121 can also be relatively rotated (due to a loose fit) and not easily separated (due to a tight fit).

As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the mobile device holder 100 further includes at least one elastic element, such as a first elastic element 141 and a second elastic element 142. The elastic member has one end connected to the engaging member 110 and the other end connected to the pivoting member 121. When the hook 111 is engaged with the recess 10r, the elastic member is in a free state. When the engaging member 110 rotates relative to the base 120 so that the hook 111 releases the concave portion 10r, the elastic member stores elastic potential energy. In this way, when the engaging element 110 is released, the elastic element releases the elastic potential energy, so that the engaging element 110 returns to the initial position (as shown in the first figure). In one embodiment, the elastic elements (eg, the first elastic element 141 and the second elastic element 142) are, for example, torsion springs.

Further exemplify the structure of the elastic member. As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the first elastic member 141 includes a first end 1411, a first sleeve portion 1412, and a second end 1413 that are connected. The second elastic member 142 includes a third end 1421, a second sleeve portion 1422 and a fourth end 1423 connected to each other. The first elastic element 141 is sleeved on the first pivoting portion 1212 with its first sleeve portion 1412, and the second elastic element 142 can be sleeved on the second pivot portion 1213 with its second sleeve portion 1422.

In addition, the first end 1411 and the second end 1413 of the first elastic member 141 abut against the engaging member 110 and the pivoting member 121, respectively, and the third end 1421 and the fourth end 1423 of the second elastic member 142 abut against respectively To the engaging member 110 and the pivoting member 121. In this way, when the engaging member 110 rotates relative to the pivotal member 121, the rotation amount of the engaging member 110 and the pivotal member 121 drives the first elastic member 141 and the second elastic member 142 to deform to store elastic potential energy. The following is a further description with Figures 7 and 8.

Please refer to FIGS. 7 and 8. FIG. 7 shows the combination of the engaging member 110, the first elastic member 141, the second elastic member 142, and the pivot member 121 in FIG. 5, and FIG. 8 shows the seventh The assembled view of the engaging member 110, the first elastic member 141, the second elastic member 142, and the pivoting member 121 in the figure from another perspective.

As shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, the first end 1411 of the first elastic member 141 abuts against the lower surface of the lower cover 114 of the engaging member 110, and the second end 1413 abuts against the pivot body of the pivot member 121 1211. The third end 1421 of the second elastic member 142 abuts against the lower surface of the cover 114 under the engaging member 110, and the fourth end 1423 abuts against the pivot body 1211. In this way, when the engaging member 110 and the pivotal member 121 rotate relative to each other, the first elastic member 141 and the second elastic member 142 are deformed, and the elastic potential energy can be stored.

Please refer back to FIGS. 5 and 6, the base body 122 of the base 120 may be a multi-piece type. For example, the seat body 122 may include a front cover 1221 and a rear cover 1222, and the front cover 1221 and the rear cover 1222 may be joined together through temporary or permanent joining methods such as snapping, locking, and bonding. In addition, the front cover 1221 and the rear cover 1222 can be fabricated separately and then assembled together, which can reduce the manufacturing difficulty of the base 122 and increase the manufacturability of the base 122.

Please refer back to FIGS. 2 and 3, the base 120 further includes a first limiting portion 123 and a second limiting portion 124. The first limiting portion 123 and the second limiting portion 124 are protrudingly provided on both sides of the base 122. The first limiting portion 123 and the second limiting portion 124 are disposed oppositely in the first direction D1, and the accommodating space 122r is formed between the first limiting portion 123 and the second limiting portion 124, wherein the first direction D1 It is substantially parallel to the rotation axis S1 of the pivoting member 121 (ie, the axial direction of the pivoting shaft 1214). In this way, when the mobile device module 10 is located in the accommodating space 122r, the first limiting portion 123 and the second limiting portion 124 are respectively located on two opposite sides of the mobile device module 10 in the first direction D1, so that the first limiting The portion 123 and the second limiting portion 124 can limit the relative displacement of the mobile device module 10 and the mobile device holder 100 in the first direction D1.
