[0052] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms as used herein have the same meanings as those usually understood by a person skilled in the art of the present invention. The terms used in the specification of the present invention herein are for description of the particular embodiments only and are not intended to limit the present invention. The term “and/or” as used herein includes any or all combinations of one or more relevant listed items.

[0053] As shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 6, an embodiment of the present invention provides a multifunctional stand. The multifunctional stand at least includes a supporting part 1, a connection part 2 and a magnet 5. The supporting part 1 is connected to the connection part 2. A joint of the supporting part 1 and the connection part 2 is recessed inwards to form a recess 3. The magnet 5 is disposed at an end of the connection part 2 far from the recess 3.

[0054] Referring to FIG. 9, when the multifunctional stand described above does not support a mobile phone 100 or a tablet computer 200, an end of the multifunctional stand provided with the magnet 5 can be magnetically attracted to a computer host 8. In this way, a user can hang a headset, a data cable and other items on the multifunctional stand quite conveniently. In addition, the joint of the supporting part 1 and the connection part 2 is recessed inwards to form the recess 3, so that the items hung on the multifunctional stand do not fall off easily, thereby achieving a good limiting effect. Due to magnetic attraction of the magnet 5, the user can conveniently take the multifunctional stand down from the computer host 8, and it is more convenient for the user to operate.

[0055] Besides, referring to FIG. 10, the multifunctional stand can also be magnetically attracted to a bottom of a laptop 9 so as to heighten the bottom of the laptop 9, thereby facilitating cooling. On the other hand, the heightened bottom of the laptop 9 can relieve the fatigue of the user's wrist. It should be noted that to make the laptop 9 more stable, a plurality of multifunctional stands can be magnetically attracted to the bottom of the laptop 9.

[0056] Referring to FIG. 11 to FIG. 14, when serving as a stand for a mobile phone 100 or a tablet computer 200, the multifunctional stand can function as a stand only by making the connection part 2 magnetically attracted to the mobile phone 100 or the tablet computer 200 and then placing the supporting part 1 onto a table, and this is very convenient. In addition, with a magnetic attraction connection mode, the connection part 2 can have a simpler structure than an existing telescopic clip or an existing bracket, thereby reducing a size and being conducive to carrying. In addition, referring to FIG. 15 to FIG. 17, when the mobile phone 100 is horizontally placed for use, users often have different demands for an inclination angle between the mobile phone and a supporting face (generally a tabletop). For example, someone likes to make the mobile phone 100 tend to be in an upright state, while some others like to make the mobile phone 100 tend to be in a flat state. In the present invention, in the case of using the multifunctional stand to support a mobile phone, when a magnetic attraction point of the mobile phone is disposed at a position of the mobile phone 100 close to the supporting face (generally the tabletop), the mobile phone 100 tends to be in an upright state, and when the magnetic attraction point of the mobile phone is disposed at a position of the mobile phone 100 far from the supporting face (generally the tabletop), the mobile phone 100 tends to be in a flat state. That is, in the present invention, only by changing the position of the magnetic attraction point on the mobile phone 100 for the multifunctional stand, an inclination angle of the mobile phone 100 can be adjusted to meet use demands of different people, which is quite convenient.

[0057] It should be noted that some mobile phones 100 or tablet computers 200 available on the market at present have a ferromagnetic property on the back side, while some others do not have. Mobile phones 100 or tablet computers 200 having a ferromagnetic property can be supported directly by the multifunctional stand in the above way. Those mobile phones 100 or tablet computers 200 having no ferromagnetic property can acquire a ferromagnetic property through an auxiliary iron sheet 300. That is, the auxiliary iron sheet 300 is attached to the back side of a mobile phone or a tablet computer through glue, and then the mobile phone or the tablet computer is supported by the multifunctional stand in the above way.
