In the first, the second and the third embodiments described above, when the mobile phone is held in the phone holder portion, the charging is achieved in a wired manner by inserting the input plug (or the in-line multiple plug) into the input socket (or the in-line multiple socket) of the mobile phone. The present embodiment is characterized in that the charging is realized in a wireless manner.
a) is a principle diagram showing that the mobile phone is charged in a wireless manner.
To be charged with this method, the mobile phone 39′ is required to be designed specially, that is, the above described additional components including the secondary magnet 38′ and 46′, the secondary coil 41 and the rectifier 19 must be additionally provided in the mobile phone 39′.
The plate portion 46 with an enlarged sectional area of the primary magnet and the portion 46′ with an enlarged sectional area of the secondary magnet play a role in two aspects: one aspect is that the area in which the magnetic flux passes through a reluctance formed by the front wall of the back plate of the phone holder portion and the rear wall of the mobile phone (generally, both of them are made of plastics materials) is increased to improve efficiency; and the other aspect is that if secondary magnets and secondary coils in different mobile phones are provided at different positions, the secondary magnet in the mobile phone can always be aligned with the primary magnet in the back plate of the phone holder portion in charging to receive the magnetic flux.
The plate portion with an enlarged sectional area located on the other end of the primary magnet shown in the figures may be designed to have more than one (for example, 2˜10) core portions of the primary magnet, and more than one set (for example, 2˜10 sets) of primary coil can be wound around the core portions correspondingly. In this way, the primary magnet can provide a stronger magnetic flux so that the charging efficiency is improved. This alternative mode concretely depends on the requirement of the electrical design and whether the space within the back plate has an enough capacity (not shown).
When the mobile phone to be held has various additional functions such as music, television and GPS navigation in addition to the talk function, the holder for the mobile phone and the bluetooth earset of the invention may have a series of additional functions to facilitate use.

There is the holding cavity 9 in the back surface of each of these back plates, and the holding cavity 9 is fitted in an embedded manner with the fixing button 9′ of the various fixing devices described above so that the back plates are fixed. In contrast, a round recess 57 is provided in the back surface of the back plate of the phone holder portion in the present embodiment, and a round disk 58 is seated into the round recess 57 in a sliding-fitted-in (imbedded) assembling manner of a plastics article, seized without escape and can be rotated with respect to the round recess 57 as shown by a bidirectional arched arrow in the figure. A holding cavity 9 is provided in an outer surface of the round disk 58 as the holding cavity in the back surface of the back plate of the phone holder portion. Recently, mobile phones of various types available in the market have display screens with such functions as GPS satellite navigation display and TV program display. However, the usual mobile phones are vertical (erective) type and the display screens of these mobile phones are held vertically in a normal condition so as not to conform with the visual habit while a television screen is being viewed. The structure of the present embodiment has such an effect that the above mentioned device can be used to rotate the whole holder holding the mobile phone (and the bluetooth earset) so that the screen of the phone is held horizontally to facilitate the viewing.
In addition, position (or angle) limiting stop spots can be provided at proper locations of the round recess 57 and the round disk 58. As shown in
e) to 14(h) show another alternative mode. The above mentioned round recess 57 is changed into a round raised disk 95, and the round raised disk 95 may be in the form of an integral circle or concentric circles shown in the figures and is divided by a number of (for example, 6˜50) radial recessed grooves 96 into many (for example, 6˜100) small raised blocks. On an inner surface of a round disk 58′ is provided one raised slab 96′ which coincides with a diameter of the round disk and the shape and the size of which match with those of the recessed grooves 96. When the inner surface of the round disk 58′ is kept close to the round raised disk 95, they can be fixed by a screw passing through holes 97 and 97′. If the round disk 58′ is rotated, the raised slab 96′ is embedded or not embedded in the recessed grooves 96 so that the round disk 58′ can be rotated to or stopped at a desired angle. A holding cavity 9 is provided in an outer surface of the round disk 58′ as the holding cavity in the back surface of the back plate of the phone holder portion.
When the holder is rotated as described above to accommodate to the habit of watching TV, the mobile phone held on the holder will be thrown out due to a centrifugal force while the automobile is turning a corner.
If such modes as shown in
In the above embodiments, the left or right holding arm or the left or right extension arm, the bottom member and the bottom legs, and the upper stopping bar and the upper stopping tabs of the phone holder portion are drawable and retractable. In order to realize the slidable positioning, for example, a rack may be provided on one of two sliding surfaces (the orientation of teeth of the rack is perpendicular to the moving direction thereof), and a protruding tip which can be ejected and retracted is provided on the other surface. Usually, the protruding tip butts against the root of a tooth to be positioned, and the protruding tip can be pushed away by the top of the tooth and slide to the next tooth while sliding with respect to the rack. Similar ways may be deduced by analogy (such a configuration is not shown).
When it is required to lead power (inside the plastics articles) across the gaps between the back plate of the phone holder portion and the left or right holding arm which slide with respect to each other, there may be a variety of methods. For example, (1) a helical conducting wire is used to accommodate to extension and retraction thereof; or (2) a conducting slide rail is provided on one of the two sliding surfaces and a conducting contact is provided on the other surface so that the slide rail and the conducting contact can be electrically connected while they are sliding with respect to each other (these configurations are not shown).
In the above detailed explanation of the present invention, the involved concrete electrical, electronics and communication technologies themselves are the prior art, thus can be excluded from the scope claimed by the present invention.
