Description

Tripod and photo frame using the tripod

technical field

The utility model relates to a tripod and a photo frame, in particular to a tripod with convex ribs and a photo frame using the tripod.

Background technique

Photos have always been used as a record to keep good times and record things, and people also put photos into photo frames for easy appreciation, but a photo frame can only put one photo in, and it is impossible to fully appreciate all It is really inconvenient.

Yet along with the progress of science and technology, in order to overcome above-mentioned inconvenience, people have invented digital photo frame, and it has the advantage that can hold a lot of digital photos and replace photos rapidly by itself, so set off a wave rapidly in consumer market. trend. As a result, many traditional photo frames are gradually replaced by this electronic product. The digital photo frame not only eliminates the need for people to use multiple photo frames to occupy space in order to enjoy a few more photos, but also saves them. The storage space is saved, and the photo is no longer yellowed and distorted due to the age.

However, no matter it is a digital photo frame or a traditional photo frame, a tripod is arranged behind the photo frame body as a support. Please refer to FIG. 1 , which shows a conventional digital photo frame. The digital photo frame 1 is placed on a supporting surface 2 . The digital photo frame 1 includes a tripod 11 and a photo frame body 12. The photo frame body 12 has a display screen 121 for displaying images. In addition, the stand 11 is pivotally arranged on the rear side of the photo frame body 12 for supporting the photo frame body 12 . However, when the user wants to move the digital photo frame 1 and picks it up, the tripod 11 will swing forward due to its own weight (as shown in FIG. 2 ). At this time, if the digital photo frame 1 is to be put back on the support surface 2, the user needs to open the tripod 11, which will cause inconvenience to the user.

Therefore, how to prevent the tripod 11 from swinging forward when the digital photo frame 1 is picked up is a subject worth considering and redesigning by those with common knowledge in the field.

Contents of the invention

The main purpose of the utility model is to provide a tripod used in a photo frame. When the user picks up the photo frame, the tripod will not swing forward.

In order to achieve the above and other purposes, the utility model provides a tripod, which is arranged on the rear side of a supported object, and the tripod is pivotally connected with the supported object, and the rear side of the supported object There is also an opening, and a first interference member is provided on the outside of the opening, wherein the tripod is characterized in that: a strip-shaped convex rib is protruded from its inner side, and the convex rib passes through the opening and is located on the In the supported object, when the stand rotates at a specific angle, the front edge of the convex rib will interfere with the front edge of the first interference member.

In the above tripod, the front edge of the convex rib is in the shape of an arc.

In the above-mentioned tripod, the front edge of the first interference member is in the shape of an arc.

In order to achieve the above and other objectives, the utility model provides a photo frame, which includes a photo frame body and a tripod, and the tripod is pivotally arranged on the rear side of the photo frame body. Moreover, the rear side of the photo frame body has an opening, and the inner side of the tripod is protruded with a long rib. The convex rib passes through the opening and is located inside the photo frame body, and a first interference piece is arranged outside the opening. When the tripod is rotated at a certain angle, the front edge of the convex rib will interfere with the front edge of the first interference piece .

In the above photo frame, the front edge of the protruding rib is in the shape of an arc.

In the above photo frame, the front edge of the first interference element is in the shape of an arc.

In the above photo frame, the photo frame body is a flat panel display.

In the photo frame of the present utility model, since the tripod is opened, the convex rib abuts against the first interference member, so even if the photo frame is picked up, the convex rib will support the tripod without causing the tripod to front swing. Therefore, when consumers move the photo frame, they don't need to bother to adjust the angle of the tripod.

In order to make those skilled in the art understand the purpose, features and effects of the present utility model, the utility model is described in detail as follows by virtue of the following specific embodiments and accompanying drawings.

Detailed ways

Please refer to FIG. 3 . FIG. 3 is a rear perspective view of a digital photo frame according to an embodiment of the present invention. This digital photo frame 3 comprises a tripod 31 and a photo frame body 32, and this tripod 31 is pivotally connected to the rear side of the photo frame body 32, and the photo frame body 32 is a flat display, and this flat display is for example a liquid crystal display (Liquid Crystal Display). Moreover, an elongated convex rib 311 protrudes from the inner side of the tripod 31, and the convex rib 311 abuts on a first interference member 322, which is arranged on the rear side of the photo frame body 32. outside of the opening 321. In addition, the material of the above-mentioned protruding rib 311 is, for example, plastic material.

Next, please refer to FIG. 4A and FIG. 4B , FIG. 4A shows a cross-sectional view of the digital photo frame before the tripod is opened, and FIG. 4B shows a cross-sectional view of the digital photo frame after the tripod is opened. Please refer to FIG. 4A , when the tripod 31 is not open, the rib 311 passes through an opening 321 at the rear of the photo frame body 32 and is located inside the photo frame body 32 . Since the convex rib 311 is made of plastic material, it has a certain degree of elasticity, so when the user opens the stand 31, the convex rib 311 will contact with the first interference member 322 and produce concave folds, and then the convex rib 311 will be Pass through the interference point 322a on the first interference member 322 . Next, please refer to FIG. 4B , when the stand 31 is opened to a certain angle θ, the flange 312 above the stand 31 will touch the rear cover 323 so that the stand 31 cannot continue to rotate counterclockwise. At this moment, the front edge of the convex rib 311 also interferes with the front edge of the first interference element 322 , so that the front edge of the convex rib 311 abuts against the first interference element 322 . In this embodiment, the front edges of the protruding rib 311 and the first interference member 322 are arc-shaped.

Since the convex rib 311 abuts against the first interfering member 322 , even if the digital photo frame 3 is picked up, the convex rib 311 will support the tripod 31 without causing the tripod 31 to swing forward. Therefore, when the consumer moves the digital photo frame 3 of the present utility model, he does not need to bother to adjust the angle of the tripod 31 any more. Moreover, since the front edge of the rib 311 abuts on the front edge of the first interference piece 322, and the front edge of the first interference piece 322 is arc-shaped, when the user wants to fold the stand 31, As long as a pushing force is applied to the first interference member 322 , the rib 311 will be concaved upward along the front edge of the first interference member 322 , so that the rib 311 is located inside the photo frame body 32 through the first interference member 322 .

In this embodiment, the photo frame body 32 is a flat-panel display, but those skilled in the art can also change the photo frame body 32 into a traditional photo frame, that is, a photo frame with traditional photos inside. Alternatively, those skilled in the art can also apply the tripod of the present invention to other supported objects, such as a portable multimedia player or other portable electronic products.

Although the utility model has been disclosed above with specific embodiments, the disclosed specific embodiments are not intended to limit the utility model. Such changes and modifications all belong to the category of the present utility model, and the protection scope of the present utility model should be as defined by the claims.
