Please refer to FIGS. 2K and 2L together, which are schematic diagrams of the use of the accessory 2 in some embodiments of the present invention. In some embodiments, the accessory 2 can be arranged on the back of a handheld device 8. In detail, the user can slide one end 23A of the flexible element 23 along the track set 210 toward the center of the base by joining the first fastener set 230 of the track set 210, so that the flexible element 23 The deformation is generated based on the sliding and squeezing of the first fastener set 230 toward the middle. In some embodiments, the first operating protrusion 234 can increase the frictional force when the user pushes one end 23A of the flexible element 23 to facilitate the user's operation.

In some embodiments, the user can also slide the other end 23B of the flexible element 23 along the track set 210 toward the center of the base by joining the second fastener set 232 of the track set 210. Similarly, the flexible element 23 is deformed based on the sliding and squeezing of the second fastener group 232 toward the middle. In some embodiments, the second operating protrusion 236 can increase the frictional force when the user pushes one end 23B of the flexible element 23 to facilitate the user's operation.

In some embodiments, in order to greatly improve the convenience of using the accessory 2, the user can connect the two ends of the flexible element 23 by joining the first fastener set 230 and the second fastener set 232 of the track set 210 23A and 23B slide along the track set 210 toward the center of the base. In other words, the first fastener set 230 and the second fastener set 232 slide toward each other along the track set 210, and the flexible element 23 is based on the first fastener set 230 And the second fastener group 232 is deformed by sliding and squeezing toward the middle.

In some embodiments, when the first fastener set 230 and the second fastener set 232 slide toward each other along the track set 210 and slide to the corresponding positioning element 210F, the positioning element 210F The first fastener set 230 and the second fastener set 232 can be positioned. In this way, the deformation generated by the flexible element 23 can be fixed to facilitate the user's operation.

In some embodiments, the deformation generated by the flexible element 23 can form a space between the flexible element 23 and the handheld device 8. The user can pass his finger through this space when using the handheld device 8. As a result, The possibility of the handheld device 8 falling during use can be greatly reduced.

In some embodiments, when the handheld device 8 is placed and used (for example, placed on a desktop for use), the deformation generated by the flexible element 23 can be used as a support for supporting the handheld device 8. As a result, the handheld device can be greatly improved 8 Stability when placed in use. Furthermore, since the first fastener set 230 and the second fastener set 232 of the flexible element 23 are both slidable, the deformation generated by the possibility element 23 can be achieved by the first fastener set 230 and the second fastener set 232. The sliding adjustment of the size and position of the fastener set 232 facilitates the user to adjust the angle when the handheld device 8 is placed.

In some embodiments, the main body 238 of the flexible element 23 includes a soft material to facilitate the deformation of the flexible element 23. The base 21, the first fastener group 230, and the second fastener group 232 comprise hard materials to facilitate the sliding of the fastener group in the track.

In some embodiments, the flexible element 23 further includes a first groove 23R1 and a second groove 23R2. The first groove 23R1 is formed at the connection between the first fastener set 230 and the main body 238 and is recessed toward the opposite direction of the base 21. The second groove 23R2 is formed at the connection between the second fastener group 232 and the main body 238 and is recessed toward the opposite direction of the base 21. Among them, the grooves 23R1 and 23R2 are used to locate and buffer the stress concentration of the deformation when the main body 238 is deformed, so as to increase the service life of the flexible element 23.

Please refer to Figure 2M to Figure 2O together. 2M is a top view of the base 21 of some embodiments of the present invention, FIG. 2N is a top view of the flexible element 23 of some embodiments of the present invention, and FIG. 2N along the line Y-Y' towards direction D Of view.

Specifically, the first flange 21P1 is provided along the first side of the base 21, and the second flange 11P2 is provided along the second side of the base 11. There is a distance W1 between the first flange 21P1 and the second flange 11P2. On the other hand, the sheet-like structure of the flexible element 13 protrudes outward in the middle part and has the maximum width W2 in the middle part.

In some embodiments, the distance W1 between the first flange 21P1 and the second flange 21P2 of the base 21 is less than the maximum width W2 of the flexible element 23. As a result, when the flexible element 23 is extended and laid flat In the accommodating space of the base 21, the middle portion of the flexible element 23 can support the first flange 21P1 and the second flange 21P2 of the base 21, so that the flexible element 13 will not be slightly deformed due to its own elasticity This affects the overall aesthetics.

In some embodiments, the first flange 21P1 of the base 21 is arranged along the first side and protrudes in the opposite direction from the bottom surface 21B at the center of the base 21. Therefore, the apex of the first flange 21P1 of the base 21 is relative to the base 21 The bottom surface of the accommodating space 21 has a distance H1. Similarly, the apex of the second flange 21P2 of the base 21 has a distance H1 from the bottom surface of the accommodating space of the base 21. On the other hand, the sheet structure of the flexible element 23 has a thickness H2. In some embodiments, the thickness H2 of the flexible element 23 is less than or equal to the distance H1 between the vertex of the flange of the base 21 and the bottom surface of the accommodating space of the base 21.

In some embodiments, the bottom surface 21B of the base 21 may be flat. In some embodiments, the bottom surface 21B may protrude toward the center from both ends. Please refer to FIG. 2P, which is another view of FIG. 2M along the line XX' toward the direction D. In some embodiments, the bottom surface 21B of the base 21 protrudes from the two ends 21x and 21y to the center 21z along the track path of the track group 210, respectively. In other words, compared to the two ends 21x and 21y, the bottom surface 21B is convex at the center 21z. In this way, when the user operates the flexible element 23 to slide on the track set 210, the protruding structure of the bottom surface 21B can improve the smoothness of pushing the flexible element 23.

It should be noted that the track set of the base of the accessory of the present invention can include single or multiple tracks (more than two), and the fastener set of the flexible element has a number of fasteners less than or corresponding to the number of tracks. The foregoing embodiments are not used To limit the number of tracks or fastener groups.
