DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS OF THE PRESENT INVENTION

(12) Although specific embodiments of the present invention will now be described with reference to the drawings, it should be understood that such embodiments are by way of example only and merely illustrative of but a small number of the many possible specific embodiments which can represent applications of the principles of the present invention. Various changes and modifications obvious to one skilled in the art to which the present invention pertains are deemed to be within the spirit, scope and contemplation of the present invention as further defined in the appended claims.

(13) The technical solutions of the present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, in order to more clearly and intuitively understand the invention.

Embodiment 1

(14) Referring to FIGS. 1 through 9, the present invention provides a mobile phone holder 1000 automatically reliably holding or releasing a mobile phone (shown in dashed lines as number 5000 in FIG. 1) which mobile phone holder 1000 comprises a housing 10 provided with an extending opening in the middle and front sides of the left and right sides, and a fixing base 20 disposed at the rear of the housing 10. Housing 10 extends from the left wall 130 to an area 132 left of the housing opening 160 extending to an area 140 to the right of the housing outlet 160 to the right wall 140. From the left side wall 130 of the housing 10 an outwardly projecting left clamping arm 30 extends and from the right side wall 140 of the housing an outwardly projecting right clamping arm 40 extends. Housing 10 has a transmission mechanism 50 (see FIG. 3) in gear rack drive 502 driving the left clamping arm 301 and the right clamping arm 401 simultaneously toward each other for clamping the mobile phone 5000 and releasing the mobile phone 5000 back to their starting position.

(15) The rotational synchronized movement of the clamping arms 301 and 401 away from each other or toward each other is created by the transmission mechanism 50. Also illustrated in FIG. 3 is the main circuit board 60 (see FIG. 5) within the housing 10, the main controller 70 in main circuit board 60 driving the transmission mechanism 50 in gear rack 502 in main controller 70. Also illustrated in FIG. 5 is the pushbutton automatic reset travel switch assembly 80 for detecting the mobile phone extending from the front end of housing 10. Referring to FIGS. 1 and 3, the left end of the left clamping arm 30 has a left clamping portion 301 protruding forwardly for clamping the mobile phone. The right end of the right clamping arm 40 has a right clamping member 401 protruding forward for clamping the mobile phone. The present invention also includes a holding section 401, left clamping arm 30 and right clamping arm 40 are interlocking with the transmission mechanism 50 in gear rack 502 respectively. The transmission mechanism 50 in gear rack 502 and the pushbutton automatic reset travel switch assembly 80 are respectively connected with the main controller 70.

(16) In the initial state, the left clamping arm 30 and the right clamping arm 40 are in an extended state. When the mobile phone is placed to fit in the front surface of the housing 10, the pushbutton automatic reset travel switch assembly 80 is pressed by the mobile phone 5000 and the pushbutton automatic reset travel switch assembly 80 gives a first feedback signal of 3.2 mm to the master controller 70 after being pressed. According to the first feedback signal, the master controller 70 controls the transmission mechanism 50 in gear rack 502 to drive the left clamping arm 30 and right clamping arm 40 to synchronously move towards each other. In this way, the left clamping portion 301 and right clamping portion 401 can securely grip and hold the mobile phone.

(17) When the mobile phone is slightly lifted from its position, the pressing force of the pushbutton automatic reset travel switch assembly 80 is reduced, and the pushbutton automatic reset travel switch assembly 80 rebounds. The pushbutton automatic reset travel switch assembly 80 now triggers a second feedback signal for the reset travel switch to move 3.2 mm and the signal is sent to the main controller 70. According to the second feedback signal of 3.2 mm of the reset travel switch, the main controller 70 controls the transmission mechanism 50 in the gear rack to drive the left clamping arm 30 and right clamping arm 40 to synchronously move apart from each other. In this way, the left clamping portion 301 and right clamping portion 401 release the mobile phone.

(18) When the mobile phone needs to be affixed to the housing 10, a mobile phone user can place the mobile phone on the front of the housing 10 using only one hand. When the user places the mobile phone on the front-end surface of the housing 10 with one hand, the pushbutton automatic reset travel switch assembly 80 protruding from the protruding end of the front-end surface of the housing 10 is pressed. The pushbutton automatic reset travel switch assembly 80 gives a first feedback preset signal to move the reset travel switch by 3.2 mm to the master controller 70 after being pressed. In response to the first feedback preset signal of 3.2 mm, the master controller 70 drives transmission mechanism 50 in gear rack 502 to drive the left clamping arm 30 and right clamping arm 40 to synchronously move towards each other. In this way, the left clamping portion 301 and right clamping portion 401 can securely grip and hold the mobile phone. When the user needs to take the phone, the user only needs to lift the mobile phone with one hand. When the user lifts the mobile phone with one hand, the pressing force of the pushbutton automatic reset travel switch assembly 80 is reduced and the pushbutton automatic reset travel switch assembly 80 rebounds. The pushbutton automatic reset travel switch assembly 80 now triggers a second feedback preset signal of 3.2 mm and the signal is sent to the main controller 70. In response to the second feedback preset 3.2 mm signal, the pushbutton automatic reset travel switch assembly 80 moves in the opposite direction by 3.2 mm and the main controller 70 drives the transmission mechanism 50 in gear rack 502 to control the left clamping portion 301 and right clamp portion 401 to synchronously move apart from each other. In this way, left clamping portion 301 and right clamping portion 401 release the mobile phone.

(19) Therefore, the present invention automatically clamps and releases the user's phone. The clamping and loosening enable the user to operate with the mobile phone with one hand so that the other hand is free to do other things. When the application is used as a car phone holder, the user can free one hand to operate the steering wheel to avoid both hands being away from the steering wheel which can effectively help a driver avoid accidents.

(20) The pushbutton automatic reset travel switch assembly 80 gives a first 3.2 mm feedback signal to the master controller 70 after being pressed so left clamping portion 301 and right clamp portion 401 release the mobile phone. A second 3.2 mm feedback signal is sent back to the master controller 70 by the pushbutton automatic reset travel switch assembly 80 so left clamping portion 301 and right clamping portion 401 release the mobile phone. When fixed by the fixing base 20, the pushbutton automatic reset travel switch assembly 80 is slightly pressed or slightly rebounded due to the pressing force reduction and the main controller 70 will not receive the feedback signal so that it is not too sensitive to control transmission mechanism 50 in gear rack 502 to drive the left clamping arm and the right clamping arm to be synchronously stretched. Accordingly, the present invention identifies if the phone fits in place and adapts to external forces such as impacts and shaking. If the mobile phone does not fit in place, the mobile phone press is insufficient. When the mobile phone stroke is less than 3.2 mm, the left clamping arm 30 and the right clamping arm 40 do not synchronously move toward each other to clamp and hold the mobile phone. When the present invention is fixed on the vehicle center console and its periphery by the fixing base 20, even if the car experiences bumps, vibration or shaking during the running process, as long as the impact forces are less than 3.2 mm, the left clamping arm 30 and right clamping arm 40 will not synchronously move against each other to release the cell phone.

(21) The present invention's pushbutton automatic reset travel switch assembly 80 driven by the pressure to generate a feedback signal works more effectively compared with the prior art infrared induction method and the elastic-type stroke switch assembly. It can prevent problems from power loss due to red infrared sensing other user's mobile phones and mechanical component wear, and prevent instability problems from deviation from the preset strokes of 3.2 mm due to prolonged use of springs.

(22) At the same time, the present invention adopts the principle of the transmission mechanism 50 in gear rack 502 to control the automatic clamping of the left clamping arm 30 and the right clamping arm 40 so that the moving positions of the left clamping arm 30 and the right clamping arm 40 are accurate without deviation. When the left clamping arm 30 and the right clamping arm 40 move toward each other to clamp the mobile phone, no matter how long the mobile phone is used, the clamping force on the mobile phone will be constant. Therefore, the phone will not be clamped too tight to break nor too loose to fall.

(23) The pushbutton automatic reset travel switch assembly 80 is composed of a pressing block 801 extending from an extending end of the front-end surface of the housing 10, a fixing spring 802 (see FIG. 5) connected between the rear end surface of the pressing block 801 and the front-end surface of the main control circuit board 60, a first travel switch 803 connected to the main controller 70 which is set in an up-and-down direction at the front end of the main control circuit board 60, and a second travel switch 804 (see FIG. 6) connected to the main controller 70 which is set in an up-and-down direction at the front end of the main control circuit board 60.

(24) The first travel switch 803 and the second travel switch 804 are arranged side-by-side from left to right. Referring to FIG. 5, the first travel switch 803 lower portion has a first elastic button 8031 (FIG. 5) movable to the left. Referring to FIG. 6, the second travel switch 804 front portion has a second elastic button 8041 which has a rearward movement. A resisting plate 805 with a gradually decreasing width is set at the back of pressing block 801. A left side of the resisting plate 805 and a right side of the first elastic button 8031 have a gap therebetween. Referring to FIGS. 5 and 6, the rear end surface of the pressing block 801 abuts to the position of the second elastic button 8041. The front end surface of the main control circuit board 60 is provided with an opening slot 601 opposite to the position of the resisting plate 805, which is adapted to pass through when the resisting plate 805 moves backward.

(25) When the mobile phone is attached to the front end surface of the housing 10 and the pressing block 801 is pressed, then the pressing block 801 drives the resisting plate 805 to move backward. The resisting plate 805 moves 0.2 mm rearwardly when responding to the first stroke. The left side of the resisting plate 805 abuts to the right side of the first elastic button 8031. When the resisting plate 805 is moved backward 3 mm responsive to the second stroke, the rear end surface of the pressing block 801 abuts to the second elastic button 8041.

(26) The stroke of the first elastic button 8031 moving to the left and the stroke of the second elastic button 8041 moving backward are both 0.3 mm.

(27) In this way, when the user needs to affix the user's mobile phone to the holder, the user attaches the mobile phone to the front-end surface of the housing 10 with one hand. When the user presses the mobile phone to the front-end surface of the housing 10 with one hand, the phone will press against the pressing block 801 protruding from the front-end surface of the housing 10. In this procedure, the pressing block 801 drives the resisting plate 805 to move backward and the resisting plate 805 moves backwards. In the first stroke of 0.2 mm, when the resisting plate 805 is moving backwards, the left side of the resisting plate 805 abuts to the right side of the first elastic button 8031. In the second stroke of 3 mm, when the resisting plate 805 is moving backwards, the rear end surface of the pressing block 801 abuts to the second elastic button 8041. When the rear end surface of the pressing block 801 abuts to the second elastic button 8041, the preset stroke of 3.2 mm is pressed. At this point, the first elastic button 8031 and the second elastic button 8041 are both in a pressed state so that a first feedback signal is sent to the main controller 70. In response to the first feedback signal, the master controller 70 controls the transmission mechanism 50 in gear rack 502 to drive the left clamping arm 30 and right clamping arm 40 to synchronously move towards each other. In this way, the left clamping portion 301 and right clamping portion 401 securely grip and hold the mobile phone.

(28) When the user needs to retrieve the mobile phone, the user only needs to lift the mobile phone with one hand. When the user lifts the mobile phone with one hand, the pressing force of the pushbutton automatic reset travel switch assembly 80 is reduced and the pushbutton automatic reset travel switch assembly 80 moves in the reverse direction to provide a second feedback signal to be sent to the main controller 70. This causes the transmission mechanism 50 in gear rack 502 to control the left clamping portion 301 and right clamp portion 401 and to synchronously move away from each other. In this way, left clamping portion 301 and right clamping portion 401 release the mobile phone.

(29) When the user attempts to affix the user's mobile phone to the mobile phone holder and the preset stroke is less than 3.2 mm, this indicates that the user's mobile phone has not been put in place properly and the arms will not grasp the mobile phone. Therefore, the present invention is able to recognize whether the phone is properly fit in place or when it is not properly fit in place.

(30) When the present invention is affixed to the vehicle center console and its periphery by the fixing base 20, as long as the vibration impacts are less than 3.2 mm, the present invention can withstand the impact and the mobile phone will not come loose.

(31) Referring to FIG. 3, the transmission mechanism 50 in gear rack 502 includes a reduction gear motor 501 disposed in an up-and-down direction, a gear 502 sleeved on a rotating shaft of the lower end of the reduction gear motor 501, and a slide rail bracket gear 503 covering gear rack 502 fixed in middle of housing 10 in a left-right direction. A front rack 504 is set inside the left of the slide rail bracket gear 503 and slidable from left to right along the inside front of slide rail bracket gear 503, and a back rack 505 set inside the right of the slide rail bracket gear 503 and slidable from left to right along the inside back slide rail bracket gear 503.

(32) Further referring to FIG. 3, the right end of the left clamping arm 30 is integrally connected with the left end of the front rack 504. The left end of the right clamping arm 40 is connected with the right end of the rear rack 505 to form an integral body. The rear end surface of the front rack 504 meshes with the front end of gear rack 502. The front end of back rack 505 meshes with front end of gear rack 502.

(33) In this way, the front rack 504 and the rear rack 505 synchronously move to drive the left clamping arm 30 and the right clamping arm 40 to move in opposite directions to clamp the mobile phone and the front rack 504, and the rear rack 505 are synchronized in a backward motion to urge the left clamping arm 30 and the right clamping arm 40 to move back in synchronization to release the mobile phone.

(34) Referring to FIG. 8, the front-end surface of the slide rail bracket 503 is provided with a first sliding slot 5031 in the left-right direction, and a second sliding slot 5032 is disposed in the left-right direction of the rear end surface. The front rack 504 is slidable to the sliding slot 5031 left-to-right and the rear rack 505 is slidable on the second sliding groove 5032 left-to-right. Therefore, each is provided with a sliding limit to prevent excess sliding to prevent displacement of the respective slide rail.

(35) Referring to FIG. 3, a wireless charging coil 90 is affixed to the front inner side of the housing 10. A wireless charging board 100 is affixed to the upper part of the housing 10 and the wireless charging board 100 has a wireless charging circuit 110 connecting main controller 70 and wireless charging coils 90. The main control circuit board 60 is further provided with a charging interface 120 and a USB output interface 130 connected to the main controller 70. Referring to FIG. 4, the lower bottom surface of the housing 10 exposes the first charging port 101 of charging interface 120 and second charging port 102 of charging interface for USB output 130.

(36) Therefore, the present invention can be provided with power by connecting the charging interface 120 to a car cigarette lighter or other power supply output with a power cable. Also, the wireless charging coil 90 is affixed to the front inner side of the housing 10. Therefore, the present invention can be used as a power adapter so it can be used for multiple applications. This also eliminates the need to connect charging cables to a user's mobile phone, thereby making the present invention a wireless charger. Moreover, an external electronic product is connected through the USB output interface 10. Therefore, the present invention can supply wired power to an external electronic product.

(37) Referring to FIG. 9, the present invention housing 10 is provided with a rechargeable battery 140 and the main control circuit board 60 is further provided with a charging protection circuit 150 and a voltage regulating circuit 160. The charging protection circuit 150 is connected between the charging interface 120 and the rechargeable battery 140. The voltage regulating circuit 160 is connected between the rechargeable battery 140 and the wireless charging coil 90. The charging protection circuit 150 and the voltage regulating circuit 160 are also respectively connected to the main controller 70.

(38) Since the rechargeable battery 140 is further located in the housing 10, the present invention can also be used as a mobile power source.

(39) Referring to FIG. 3, an annular groove 103 is formed in the middle of the front-end surface of housing 10, and a non-slip rubber gasket 170 is fixed in the annular groove 103. The right end surface of the left clamping arm 301 and a left end surface of the right clamping arm 40 respectively have a fixed non-slip rubber pad 180. In this way, when the user secures the mobile phone to the present invention, the non-slip rubber gasket 170 abuts against the back of the user's mobile phone. The two non-slip rubber pads 180 correspond to the two sides of the user's mobile phone, so that the user's mobile phone can be clamped to prevent the user's mobile phone from slipping off. The non-slip rubber gasket 170 and the two non-slip rubber pads 180 can also protect the user's mobile phone to isolate the user's mobile phone from the housing 10, the left clamping portion 301 and the right clamping portion 401 to avoid wear on the back side and both sides of the user's mobile phone.

Embodiment 2

(40) In FIG. 5 through FIG. 10, referring initially to FIG. 3-FIG. 4, the present invention mobile phone holder 1000 is illustrated automatically holding or releasing a mobile phone 5000 which comprises a housing 10 provided with an extended opening in the middle and front sides of the left and right sides, and a fixing base 20 disposed at the rear of the housing 10. Housing 10 extends from the left housing outlet extending clamping arm 30 through the housing to the right side housing outlet extending clamping arm 40. Housing 10 also includes transmission mechanism 50 in gear rack drive 502 which drives the left clamping arm 30 and the right clamping arm 40 with synchronized movement either away from each other or synchronized movement toward each other. The alternative embodiment of the mobile phone holder also includes a main circuit board 60 within the housing 10, the main controller 70 in the main circuit board 60 driving the transmission mechanism 50 in gear rack 502 in main controller 70, the pushbutton automatic reset travel switch assembly 80 for detecting the mobile phone extending from the front end of housing 10, and a pressing panel 190 fixed to the pushbutton automatic reset travel switch assembly 80 that is open to the front end surface of the housing 10 and the lower bottom surface.

(41) The left end of the left clamping arm 30 has a left clamping portion 301 protruding forwardly for clamping the mobile phone. The right end of the right clamping arm 40 has a right clamping member 401 protruding forward for clamping the mobile phone. To the right of left clamping arm 30 and left of right clamping arm 40 respectively interlock the transmission mechanism 50 in gear rack 502. The transmission mechanism 50 in gear rack 502 and the pushbutton automatic reset limit switch component 80 are respectively connected with the main controller 70.

(42) In the initial state, the left clamping arm 30 and the right clamping arm 40 are in an extended condition when the mobile phone is placed to fit in the front surface of the housing 10. The pressing panel 190 is then pressed by the mobile phone, and the attached pushbutton automatic reset travel switch assembly 80 gives a first feedback signal of 3.2 mm to the master controller 70 after being pressed. In response to the first feedback signal, the master controller 70 controls the transmission mechanism 50 in gear rack 502 to drive the left clamping arm 30 and right clamping arm 40 to synchronously move towards each other so the left clamping portion 301 and right clamping portion 401 can separately grip and hold the mobile phone.

(43) When the mobile phone is lifted slightly, the pressing force of pressing panel 190 is reduced, and pressing force on the attached pushbutton automatic reset travel switch assembly 80 is reduced, so the automatic reset travel switch assembly 80 rebounds. The pushbutton automatic reset travel switch assembly 80 now triggers a second feedback signal of 3.2 mm and the signal is sent to the main controller 70. In response to the second feedback signal, the main controller 70 controls the transmission mechanism 50 in the gear rack to drive the left clamping arm 30 and right clamping arm 40 to synchronously move against each other. In this way, the left clamping portion 301 and right clamping portion 401 releases the mobile phone 5000.

(44) The difference between Embodiment 1 and Embodiment 2 is that the front end and bottom back surface of the housing 10 in Embodiment 1 is replaced with an L-shape pressing panel 190 fixed to the pushbutton automatic reset travel switch assembly 80 with front-end and bottom back surface. In this embodiment, the principle of the left clamping arm 30 and the right clamping arm 40 automatically opening and closing remains the same.

(45) The result differs in that the pushbutton automatic reset travel switch assembly 80 is built-in and hidden. From the front perspective view, the front end surface of the present invention is a planar structure or a bear-planar structure. No pressing-type physical component can be seen from the front surface like left and right mouse buttons, which creates an aesthetic elegant look.

(46) In the second embodiment, the pushbutton automatic reset travel switch assembly 80 is composed of a pressing block 801, a fixing spring 802 connected between the rear end surface of the pressing block 801 and the front-end surface of the main control circuit board 60, a first travel switch 803 connected to the main controller 70 which is set in an up-and-down direction at the front end of the main circuit board 60, and a second travel switch 804 connected to the main controller 70 which is set in an up-and-down direction at the front end of the main control circuit board 60.

(47) The rear end surface of the pressing panel 190 is fixedly connected to the front portion of the pressing block 801. The first travel switch 803 and the second travel switch 804 are arranged side-by-side from left to right. The first travel switch 803 lower portion has a first elastic button 8031 movable to the left and the second travel switch 804 front portion has a second elastic button 8041 having a rearward movement. A resisting plate 805 with a gradually decreasing width is set at the back of pressing block 801 and a left side of the resisting plate 805 and a right side of the first elastic button 8031 have a certain gap therebetween. The rear end surface of the pressing block 801 abuts to the position of the second elastic button 8041 and the front end surface of the main control circuit board 60 is provided with an opening slot 601 (see FIG. 5) which abuts to the resisting plate 805 which is adapted to pass through when the resisting plate 805 moves backward.

(48) When the mobile phone is attached to the pressing panel 190, and the pressing block 801 is pressed, the pressing block 801 drives the resisting plate 805 to move backward. When the resisting plate 805 moves rearwardly 0.2 mm of the first stroke, the left side of the resisting plate 805 abuts to the right side of the first elastic button 8031. When the resisting plate 805 is moved backwardly 3 mm of the second stroke, the rear end surface of the pressing block 801 abuts to the second elastic button 8041.

(49) The stroke of the first elastic button 8031 moving to the left and the stroke of the second elastic button 8041 moving backward are both 0.3 mm.

(50) In this way, when the user presses the mobile phone to the front-end surface of the housing 10 with one hand, the phone will press against the pressing block 801 protruding from the front-end surface of the housing 10. In this procedure, the pressing block 801 drives the resisting plate 805 to move backward by 0.2 mm for the first stroke. When the resisting plate 805 is moving backwards, the left side of the resisting plate 805 abuts to the right side of the first elastic button 8031. In the second stroke of 3 mm, when the resisting plate 805 is moving backwards, the rear end surface of the pressing block 801 abuts to the second elastic button 8041. When the rear end surface of the pressing block 801 abuts to the second elastic button 8041, the first preset stroke is pressed, that is 3.2 mm. At this time, the first elastic button 8031 and the second elastic button 8041 are both in a pressed state, so that a first feedback signal is sent to the main controller 70 according to the first feedback signal. The master controller 70 controls the transmission mechanism 50 in gear rack 502 to drive the left clamping arm 30 and right clamping arm 40 to synchronously move towards each other, so the left clamping portion 301 and right clamping portion 401 can grip and hold the mobile phone securely.

(51) When the user needs to retrieve the mobile phone, the user only needs to lift the mobile phone with one hand. When the user lifts the mobile phone with one hand, the pressing force of the pushbutton automatic reset travel switch assembly 80 is reduced, and the pushbutton automatic reset travel switch assembly 80 rebounds. When the second preset stroke equal 3.2 mm, a second feedback signal will be sent back to the main controller 70. According to the second feedback signal, the main controller 70 drives the transmission mechanism 50 in gear rack 502 to control the left clamping portion 301 and right clamp portion 401 synchronously move away from each other. In this way, left clamping portion 301 and right clamping portion 401 release the mobile phone.

(52) As in the first embodiment, a minimum 3.2 mm force is required to affix the user's mobile phone. The 3.2 mm for the first preset stroke causes a pushbutton automatic reset travel switch assembly to move 3.2 mm for the clamping arms to clamp the mobile phone. If the force is less than 3.2 mm, this indicates that the mobile phone is not properly set in the housing and the clamping arms will not clamp the phone.

(53) When the mobile phone is properly affixed in the housing and is on a vehicle center console and its periphery by the fixing base 20, even if the car has a certain bump and/or vibration or shaking during the running process, as long as the mobile phone rebound stroke of the present invention is less than 3.2 mm, the present invention can adapt and retain the mobile phone. This also allows the present invention to not work by mistake due to a slight shaking to the mobile phone.

(54) In the second embodiment, the transmission mechanism 50 in gear rack 502 includes a reduction gear motor 501 disposed in an up and down direction, a gear 502 sleeved on a rotating shaft of the lower end of the reduction gear motor 501, a slide rail bracket gear 503 covering gear rack 502 fixed in middle of housing 10 in a left-right direction, a front rack 504 set inside the left of the slide rail bracket gear 503 and slidable from left to right along the front inside of slide rail bracket gear 503, and a back rack 505 set inside the right of the slide rail bracket gear 503 and slidable from left to right along back inside of the slide rail bracket gear 503.

(55) The right end of the left clamping arm 30 is integrally connected with the left end of the front rack 504 and the left end of the right clamping arm 40 is connected with the right end of the rear rack 505 to form an integral body. The rear end surface of the front rack 504 meshes with the front end of gear rack 502, and the front end of back rack 505 meshes with front end of gear rack 502.

(56) In this way, the front rack 504 and the rear rack 505 synchronously move to drive the left clamping arm 30 and the right clamping arm 40 to move in opposite directions to clamp the mobile phone. In addition the front rack 504 and the rear rack 505 are synchronized in a backward motion to urge the left clamping arm 30 and the right clamping arm 40 to move back in synchronization to release the mobile phone.

(57) The front end surface of the slide rail bracket 503 is provided with a first sliding slot 5031 in the left-right direction, and a second sliding slot 5032 is disposed in the left-right direction of the rear end surface. The front rack 504 is slidable to the sliding slot 5031 left-to-right and the rear rack 505 is slidable on the second sliding groove 5032 left-to-right so they having a sliding limit without displacement.

(58) In the second embodiment, a wireless charging coil 90 is affixed to the front inner side of the pressing panel 190. A wireless charging board 100 is affixed to the upper part of the housing 10.
