FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of an electronic device installed in a bracket device according to an embodiment of the present invention. Please refer to FIG. 1, the bracket device 100 of this embodiment includes a chassis 110, an upper cover 140, a hollow ball bearing 146, a sleeve tube 147 and a wire 16. The upper cover 140 is rotatably disposed on the chassis 110 with the direction of a first axis A1 as the axis. The hollow ball bearing 146 is exposed to the upper cover 140 and is adapted to rotate relative to the upper cover 140 with a second axis A2 as the axis. Similarly, the sleeve 147 is rotatably disposed on a tube 145 of the hollow ball bearing 146 with the direction of the first axis A1 as the axis. The direction of the first axis A1 is perpendicular to the direction of the second axis A2, but it is not limited thereto. The wire 16 is, for example, a transmission line, which passes through the upper cover 140, the hollow ball bearing 146 and the sleeve 147 from the chassis 110 to be electrically connected to the electronic device 10.

In this embodiment, the electronic device 10 is a device that needs to adjust the angle, such as a monitor or a lamp. Of course, the type of the electronic device 10 is not limited to this. In other embodiments, the electronic device 10 may also be a screen, etc. Device.

The electronic device 10 includes a circuit board 12 and a wire take-up 14. The wire 16 is suitable for being automatically wound into the wire take-up 14 or discharged from the wire take-up 14 so that the wire 16 will not be entangled and the tension can be maintained. The wire 16 between the wire take-up 14 and the circuit board 12 is connected to the circuit board 12 to power the electronic device 10 or transmit signals. Of course, in other embodiments, the wire take-up 14 may also be arranged inside the bracket device 100, such as on the chassis 110.

In this embodiment, since the upper cover 140 is rotatably disposed on the chassis 110, the hollow ball bearing 146 rotates relative to the upper cover 140, and the sleeve 147 is rotatably disposed on the tube 145 of the hollow ball bearing 146, so that the bracket device There are three rotatable members on 100, so that the electronic device 10 disposed thereon can be rotated at a large angle and in multiple directions. Of course, the rotation axis of the rotatable member is not limited by the above.

It is worth mentioning that in this embodiment, the sleeve 147 is located inside the electronic device 10. If the rotation range of the sleeve 147 is too large, the wire 16 connected to the circuit board 12 may be bent too much. . Therefore, in this embodiment, the rotation range of the sleeve 147 relative to the tube 145 of the hollow ball bearing 146 can be designed to be small, and the rotation of the upper cover 140 relative to the chassis 110 can make up for the rotation of the first axis A1 in the direction of the axis. The remaining range.

For example, the upper cover 140 can rotate relative to the chassis 110, such as plus or minus 180 degrees, and the hollow ball bearing 146 can rotate relative to the upper cover 140 in one direction, such as 40 to 50 degrees, and rotate in another direction, such as 80 degrees. At 100 degrees, the sleeve 147 can rotate relative to the tube 145 of the hollow ball bearing 146, for example, plus or minus 90 degrees. Of course, the rotation range is not limited to the above.

The stent device 100 will be described below. Fig. 2 is a schematic diagram of hiding the upper cover of the bracket device of Fig. 1. 3 and 4 are exploded schematic diagrams of the bracket device of FIG. 1 from various perspectives. Fig. 5 is a schematic cross-sectional view of the stent device of Fig. 1. Fig. 6 is an exploded schematic diagram of Fig. 5.

Please refer to FIGS. 2 to 6, the bracket device 100 of this embodiment further includes an inner frame 130 and a rotating member 120. The inner frame 130 is fixed to the chassis 110, the inner frame 130 includes a first rail 132 formed between the chassis 110 and the inner frame 130, and the inner frame 130 includes a second rail 134 facing away from the chassis 110. The rotating member 120 is disposed on the first rail 132 and can rotate relative to the chassis 110 and the inner frame 130. The upper cover 140 includes a bump 141 suitable for being disposed in the second rail 134 of the inner frame 130. In other words, the wall surface of the groove of the second rail 134 can be used as a limit surface for the sliding of the protrusion 141 to ensure that the upper cover 140 moves along the direction of the second rail 134. On the other hand, the upper cover 140 is fixed to the rotating member 120 to be linked with the rotating member 120.

It is worth mentioning that in this embodiment, since the upper cover 140 rotates to drive the rotating member 120 to rotate, the inner frame 130 and the chassis 110 can be used to restrict the rotating member 120 in the stacking direction (first axis A1, up and down direction). The limiting structure further limits the displacement of the upper cover 140 in the stacking direction, and can only rotate along the second track 134, so that the upper cover 140 can rotate stably without shaking up and down.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 5, the rotating member 120 includes a tube body component passing through the inner frame 130. The bracket device further includes a hollow ball bearing 146. The hollow ball bearing 146 is rotatably arranged in the tube assembly. More specifically, the tube assembly includes a first tube 122, an elastic member 124, and a second tube 126. The upper cover 140 includes a third tube body 142, and the first tube body 122, the elastic member 124 and the second tube body 126 are located in the third tube body 142. The elastic member 124 is located between the first tube body 122 and the second tube body 126, and the hollow ball bearing 146 is rotatably disposed on the second tube body 126 of the tube body assembly and exposed to the third tube body 142 of the upper cover 140.

In this embodiment, the elastic member 124 pushes against the second tube body 126 to fix the relative position of the second tube body 126 in the third tube body 142 of the outer cover, so that the second tube body 126 serves as a hollow ball. The head bearing 146 stabilizes the rotating base. In this way, the hollow ball bearing 146 only rotates stably about the second axis A2 (FIG. 1).

In addition, in this embodiment, the bracket device 100 further includes a circuit board 151 disposed between the rotating member 120 and the chassis 110. The circuit board 151 includes a first connector 152 and a second connector 154. In this embodiment, the first connector 152 and the second connector 154 are electrically connected to each other and are respectively located on opposite sides of the circuit board 151, but the relative position is not limited by this. The first connector 152 is exposed to the chassis 110 for connection with a plug 19 of an external wiring 18. The wire 16 is inserted into the second connector 154. Of course, in other embodiments, the wire 16 and/and the external wiring 18 can also be directly fixed to the circuit board 151.

Generally speaking, during the rotation of the electronic device, most of the exposed wires need to be rotated or even bent accordingly. The bent wires tend to return to their original state, which may cause the electronic device to be unable to be accurately adjusted in place. In this embodiment, since the external wiring 18 is connected to the stationary chassis 110, the external wiring 18 will not be linked when the user rotates the electronic device, and the above-mentioned situation can be overcome. In this embodiment, since the external wiring 18 is connected to the chassis 110, it is almost flat against the desktop without being separated from the desktop by a large gap, visually achieving a simple and beautiful effect.

In this embodiment, the wire 16 passes from the circuit board 151 through the first tube 122, the elastic member 124, the second tube 126, the hollow ball bearing 146 and the tube 145 of the rotating member 120, and passes through the sleeve 147 out. The wire 16 can be wound around the chassis 110 and the upper cover 140. When the upper cover 140 rotates relative to the chassis 110, the wound wire 16 can be 124. The wire 16 in the second tube body 126 rotates with the upper cover 140, and it will not affect the part of the wire 16 below the upper cover 140 (that is, the part connected to the circuit board 151).

In addition, because the wire 16 is flexible, when the hollow ball bearing 146 rotates around the second axis A2 as the axis, the wire 16 can easily bend with the hollow ball bearing 146. In addition, when the sleeve 147 rotates relative to the tube 145 of the hollow ball bearing 146, the inner wire 16 will not be driven by the sleeve 147, and damage to the wire 16 due to rotation can be avoided.

In this embodiment, a fixing member 166 is disposed in the center of the chassis 110, and the bracket device 100 further includes a ball bearing 168, which is disposed between the upper cover 140 and the chassis 110, and is sleeved on the fixing member 166 and located on the upper cover 140 On the central axis. The fixing member 166 is coaxial with the central axis of the upper cover 140, and when the upper cover 140 is rotated relative to the chassis 110, the position of the fixing member 166 can be used as the axis to avoid the tolerance of the first rail 132 or/and the second rail 134 Reduce the smoothness of rotation.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 3, the stand device 100 further includes a counterweight 150 which is disposed on the chassis 110 to reduce the probability of top-heavy overturning of the electronic device 10 when the electronic device 10 is placed on the stand device 100. In addition, in this embodiment, the rotating member 120 is fixed to the upper cover 140 through screws 160, the counterweight 150 is fixed to the chassis 110 through screws 162, and the chassis 110 is fixed to the inner frame 130 through screws 166. An anti-slip pad 170 is arranged under the chassis 110 to increase the friction between the bracket device 100 and the desktop, so as to stably stand on the desktop.

In summary, the bracket device of the present invention has an upper cover that can rotate relative to the chassis, so that the electronic device disposed on it can rotate to meet the requirements. In addition, the wire passes through the rotating part and the upper cover, and is suitable for supplying power to the electronic device connected to the upper cover. The wire is located inside the stent device to make the appearance simple, and the wire can be well protected and not easily torn. In addition, the inner frame of the bracket device of the present invention is fixed to the chassis to form a first track, and the rotating member is rotatably arranged on the first track. The upper cover is arranged on the second track of the inner frame and is linked with the rotating member. Therefore, when the upper cover is rotated, it will drive the rotating member to rotate.
