Description
CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

The application claims priority to Chinese patent application No. 202222016808.1, filed on Aug. 2, 2022, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.

BACKGROUND

As we all know, a tablet computer protective cover is a cover used for sleeving on the tablet computer, which is mainly used for protecting the tablet computer. In order to avoid holding the tablet computer by hand, a support frame is arranged on the back of some tablet computer protective covers, and the support structure formed by the support frame is used to support the tablet computer.


At present, most of the existing tablet computer protection racks with support frames are integrated with the cover body, and these support frames become cumbersome when they are not needed. Therefore, some tablet computer protective covers are designed as split structures, that is, the support frame and the cover body are designed separately, and they may be combined when they need to be combined, and they may be removed when they are not needed. However, in use, it can be found that, when only the tablet computer needs to be rotated, so that the tablet computer may be placed horizontally or vertically, or the cover body is detached from the support frame first, and then rotated and mounted in alignment. Otherwise, the tablet computer protective cover based on the principle of magnetic attraction installation is forced to rotate by external force and then adsorbed on the tablet computer. Therefore, it can be understood that the first one often makes the operation more cumbersome and not convenient enough; the second type is often more labor-intensive and not labor-saving enough.

As shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 6, a tablet computer protective cover, including a cover body 1 and a support frame 2. The cover body 1 is provided with a cavity 11 for installing the tablet computer, the support frame 2 is provided with a bearing plate 21 for bearing the cover body, a back of the cover body 1 is provided with a first assembly component 12, a second assembly component 22 matched with the first assembly component 12 is arranged on the bearing plate 21; meanwhile, the cover body 1 and the support frame 2 of this embodiment need to rotate without being detached to meet the requirements of horizontal and vertical placement of the tablet computer.


Therefore, in this embodiment, the first assembly component 12 and the second assembly component 22 may rotate relative to each other after being combined, and for the design of specific structures, the following three structural settings can be adopted:

    • the first type, the first assembly component 12 may be rotatably mounted on the back of the cover body 1, the second assembly component 22 is fixedly mounted on the bearing plate 21;
    • the second type, the first assembly component 12 is fixedly mounted on the back of the cover body 1, and the second assembly component 22 is rotatably mounted on the bearing plate 21;
    • the third type, the first assembly component 12 is rotatably mounted on the back of the cover body 1, the second assembly component 22 is rotatably mounted on the bearing plate 21.


When in use, the tablet computer is pre-mounted in the cavity of cover body 1, and then paired with the first assembly component 12 on the back of cover body 1 and the second assembly component 22 on the bearing plate 21, after the installation is completed, the tablet computer can be used normally. When the cover body needs to be adjusted horizontally or vertically, it is only necessary to keep the cover body 1 suspended. Then, the cover body 1 can be manually pushed to rotate at an angle, so that the cover body 1 may be placed horizontally and vertically, in the whole operation, the cover body 1 does not need to be detached, and the operation is very convenient.


Furthermore, for the alignment structure between the first assembly component 12 and the second assembly component 22, various forms can be used, such as buckles or threads, with the most preferred being magnetic attraction, Therefore, the first assembly component 12 and the second assembly component 22 of this embodiment are both embedded with a magnetic attraction member 100; the magnetic attraction member 100 of the first assembly component 12 is a magnet, and the magnetic attraction member 100 of the second assembly component 22 is an iron sheet. Alternatively, the magnetic attraction member 100 of the first assembly component 12 is an iron sheet, and the magnetic attraction member 100 of the second assembly component 22 is a magnet; alternatively, the magnetic attraction members 100 of the first assembly component 12 and the second assembly component 22 are magnets. In this way, for the first assembly component 12 and the second assembly component 22, the assembly and disassembly may be quickly and conveniently completed by relying on magnetic attraction, so that the cover body 1 may be used as a single body without being limited by the support frame 2.


Further, when the first assembly component 12 and second assembly component 22 are mounted in a rotating manner, the side surfaces of the first assembly component 12 and the second assembly component 22 are provided with annular clamping grooves 101, mounting holes 103 are defined on the opposite cover body 1 and the bearing plate 21, the first assembly component 12 and the second assembly component 22 are mounted in alignment in the mounting hole 103, and the annular clamping groove 101 is docked with a side opening of the mounting hole 103. In addition, a movable gap 102 is reserved between the annular clamping groove 101 and the side opening of the mounting hole 103, so that the first assembly component 12 and the second assembly component 22 may rotate.


When the first assembly component and the second assembly component are not selected for rotary installation, they can be directly connected to the corresponding support frame 2 or cover body 1 as a whole.


Furthermore, for the specific structure of support frame 2, the support frame 2 of this embodiment is further provided with a bottom plate 23 and a connecting plate 24, one end of the connecting plate 24 is connected with the bottom plate 23 through a bending part 25, and the other end of the connecting plate 24 is connected with the bearing plate 21 through the bending part 25.


In this way, a triangular support structure may be formed by relying on the bearing plate 21, the bottom plate 23, and the connecting plate 24, so that one end of the cover body 1 is placed on the bottom plate 23 to achieve support.


Furthermore, in order to prevent slipping when the cover body 1 is placed, at least one limiting groove 26 is defined on the bottom plate 23 of this embodiment, a groove width of the limiting groove 26 is greater than or equal to an outer edge width of the cover body 1. When multiple limiting grooves 26 are provided, the cover body 1 may be placed in different limiting grooves 26 to achieve different support angles.
