DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Reference will now be made in detail to some embodiments, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. The following description refers to the accompanying drawings in which the same numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements unless otherwise represented. The implementations set forth in the following description of some embodiments do not represent all implementations consistent with the present disclosure. Instead, they are merely examples of apparatuses and methods consistent with aspects related to the disclosure as recited in the appended claims.

In order to use mobile phone safely and conveniently, Apple has made the product CarPlay, Google has made the product Android Auto, and Baidu has made the product CarLife, that is, smart car infotainment systems to facilitate the watching and operation of the large screen that is fixed firmly at a good position in the car. However, although the existing smart car infotainment system has a large screen, the operation interface is different from that of a mobile phone. The operation for navigation, music and video, phone call, internet browning, various apps and so on with the smart car infotainment system by driver and passenger, are usually nowhere near as familiar as that directly with phone. The car operating system application software is generally not as easy to use as the mobile phone application software, and its performance is worse than that of the mobile phone. Therefore, the smart car infotainment system cannot eliminate the original and simple car mobile phone holder. So far, people have made various car phone holders to support the phone to facilitate the one-handed operation of the driver. The existing car mobile phone holders are mounted on the window glass, air outlet, CD slot, cup holder, or car cigarette lighter socket. The mobile phone holder is not firmly mounted and easy to fall off; when powering the mobile phone, it also needs to use an obstructive charging cable. The problems of phone falling off and cable obstructing always disturb humans. And humans always do efforts from various aspect and have gotten a lot of progress. However, the solutions are still not enough.

In U.S. Ser. No. 10/797,436B2, U.S. Ser. No. 11/056,828B2 and Japanese patent JP6883871B2, the disclosures of which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety, the inventor used the car cigarette lighter socket to support the mobile phone holder and the mobile phone, and the mobile phone is electrically connected at the same time. It has better convenience and performance than before. Here, the present application adopts a USB connector socket, and also adopts a different structure to support the mobile phone holder and the mobile phone, and the mobile phone is electrically connected at the same time. In this way, the mobile phone can be connected to the car with high performance, which also improves the convenience and versatility. However, the USB connector is relatively small, especially the new version USB-C connector, which is small in size and small in mechanical strength, making it difficult to support mobile phone holders and mobile phones. If the USB connector socket plug is directly used to support the mobile phone or mobile phone holder, the vibration of the car or the inertial force during acceleration and deceleration will easily break the USB connector socket plug, short-circuit the wire, and cause damage to the car device or mobile phone, or cause a car fire. Therefore, the USB connector socket plug is not suitable for directly supporting a mobile phone or a mobile phone holder. In addition, this application also improves the structure of using the car cigarette lighter socket to support the mobile phone holder and the mobile phone, so that it is more versatile and flexible, more beautiful and not in the way.
