A first notch 12 is opened on a surface of the first bracket 1, and a first rotation axis 33 is disposed in an inner part of the first notch 12.


As shown in FIGS. 6 and 7 specifically, the first bracket 1 is attached to the mobile phone by using the magnet 14, and the second bracket 2 is flipped out of the inner part of the accommodation hole 11 through the hinging arm 3, so that the wireless charger may be placed in the inner part of the accommodation hole 11. This is more convenient to use.


In a specific technical solution of the embodiment, the second bracket 2 is in an annular shape, and a second notch 22 is opened on a surface of the second bracket 2, a second rotation axis 23 is disposed in an inner part of the second notch 22, one end of the hinging arm 3 extends to the inner part of the first notch 12 and is snapped to a surface of the first rotation axis 33, and the other end of the hinging arm 3 extends to the inner part of the second notch 22 and is snapped to a surface of the second rotation axis 23. Through the first rotation axis 33 and the second rotation axis 23, the first bracket 1, the hinging arm 3, the second bracket 2, and the hinging arm 3 may rotate, to facilitate the adjustment of a support angle.


In a specific technical solution of the embodiment, a placement slot 31 in which the second bracket 2 is placed is opened on a side of the hinging arm 3. A slip resistant pad 15 that is used to cover the magnet 14 is disposed on one side of the first bracket 1. A decorative sticker 16 is disposed on the other side of the first bracket 1. The slip resistant pad 15 is made of a rubber material. Therefore, when being attached to a mobile phone of a user, the slip resistant pad 15 is not worn, slip resistant effect is excellent, and adsorption is more stable. The decorative sticker 16 is used to decorate the side of the first bracket 1, so that appearance is more beautiful.


In a specific technical solution of the embodiment, at least one first movable slot 42 is disposed in the inner part of the base 41 at equal intervals in an annular shape. The limiting buckle 44 is movably disposed in an inner part of the first movable slot 42. A quantity of the limiting buckles 44 is equal to a quantity of the first movable slots 42. A pressure spring 46 of which one end abuts against one phase of the limiting buckle 44 is disposed in the inner part of the first movable slot 42. The first movable slot 42 is used to mount the limiting buckle 44. Therefore, the limiting buckle 44 may be more stably retracted, and when the limiting buckle 44 slides toward the inner part of the first movable slot 42, the limiting buckle 44 may compress the pressure spring 46, and while the compression spring 46 may continuously abut against the limiting buckle 44. Therefore, when the user releases a snap-fastener 47, the compression spring 46 springs back and abuts against the limiting buckle 44, to enable the limiting buckle 44 to automatically move toward an outer part of the first movable slot 42.


In a specific technical solution of the embodiment, a slant block 45 is disposed at one end of a limiting buckle 44 located in the movable slot. The snap-fastener 47 is movably disposed on a side of the base 41. A press block 471 corresponding to the slant block 45 is disposed on the snap-fastener 47. A cover plate 48 is disposed on the side of the base 41, a through hole 481 is opened in an inner part of the cover plate 48, and a side of the snap-fastener 47 extends to an inner part of the through hole 481. When the snap-fastener 47 is pressed, the snap-fastener 47 drives the press block 471 to abut against the slant block 45, and the slant block 45 is abutted to drive the limiting buckle 44 to compress the pressure spring 46 and separate from the second bracket 2.


As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5 specifically, the pressure block 471 abuts against a beveled surface on the slant block 45. When the snap-fastener 47 is pressed, the snap-fastener 47 drives the pressure block 471 to vertically move down and abut against the slant block 45. Therefore, when being abutted, the beveled surface on the slant block 45 compresses the pressure spring 46 and slides along pressure block 471. When the snap-fastener 47 is released, the pressure spring 46 springs back to drive the slant block 45 to be against the pressure block 471, to enable the pressure block 471 to drive the snap-fastener 47 to enter the inner part of the through hole 481. This facilitates pressing by the user. Because a beveled surface is disposed on the limiting buckle 44, when the second bracket 2 is assembled to the connector 4, when the beveled surface of the limiting buckle 44 is directly abutted, the limiting buckle 44 is driven to be retracted to the inner part of the first movable slots 42. The snap-fastener 47 does not need to be pressed, and only needs to be pressed during disassembly.


In a specific technical solution of the embodiment, at least one second movable slot 43 is disposed in the inner part of the base 41 at equal intervals in an annular shape, the spring bead 431 is movably disposed in an inner part of the second movable slot 43, and a quantity of the spring beads 431 is equal to a quantity of the second movable slots 43. The second movable slot 43 is used to mount the spring bead 431. The spring bead 431 includes a bead and a straight barrel that sleeves the bead. A spring is disposed in an inner part of the straight barrel. When the second bracket 2 drives the tooth slot 21 to rotate on the base 41, the tooth slot 21 is frequently switched to abut against the spring bead 431. When the bead of the spring bead 431 is abutted, the spring is compressed backward, and clamped into an inner part of a next tooth slot 21 while the tooth slot 21 is switched, to position the rotated second bracket 2.


In a specific technical solution of the embodiment, a clamping groove 482 of which one end extends to the inner part of the second movable slot 43 and is clamped with the spring bead 431 is disposed on a side of the cover plate 48. Due to the clamping groove 482, stabilization of mounting the spring bead 431.


In a specific technical solution of the embodiment, an adhesive mat 49 is disposed on a side, far away from the cover plate 48, of the base 41. The base 41 may be adhered to a different scenario such as an object or a platform through the adhesive mat 49.


During use in a car, the base 41 is adhered to a center console of the car through the adhesive mat 49, and the first bracket 1 is attached to the mobile phone through the magnet 14. The hinging arm 3 and the second bracket 2 are flipped out from the inner part of the accommodation hole 11, and the second bracket 2 is flipped out from an inner part of the placement slot 31, and the second bracket 2 is sleeved on the connector 4. The second bracket 2 abuts against the limiting buckle 44. When the limiting buckle 44 is abutted, the spring is compressed backward. When the second bracket 2 crosses the limiting buckle 44, the limiting buckle 44 is abutted by rebound of the spring and reset to clamp the second bracket 2, to steadily sleeve the second bracket 2 on the connector 4. When an angle of the second bracket 2 needs to be adjusted, the second bracket 2 can be rotated at 360° on the surface of the base 41. After being rotated, the second bracket 2 can be clamped into the tooth slot 21 to position. In the office scenario, the base 41 can be adhered to a back of a screen of a desktop computer or a laptop through the adhesive mat 49. Therefore, the mobile phone is suspended on a side of the computer, so that the user can conveniently view information. Alternatively, the base 41 can be mounted on the desktop for use, or the connector 4 can be separated from the second bracket 2. Therefore, the second bracket 2 can be sleeved in a finger of the user, to realize handheld support. Alternatively, the second bracket 2 can be accommodated in the accommodation hole 11.
