Abstract

A clamping device adapted to electronic product of different dimensions, includes a base unit, a clamping member, two stoppers, a moving unit, a release unit, and two rotation units. The base unit is used for placing an electronic product on it. The clamping member clamps the electronic product by the manner of closing the stoppers. The clamp member is installed on the moving unit. The moving unit adjusts the position of the clamping member by the manner of straight moving. The two stoppers are installed on the corresponding rotation units, respectively. The two rotation units adjust positions of the two stoppers by rotary manner. The release unit may release the state of clamping the electronic product. The clamping device clamps the electronic product of different dimensions through a variety of positions of the clamping member and the two stoppers.

Claims

1. A clamping device adapted to electronic products of different dimensions, comprising:

a base unit having a placement surface, said placement surface having left and right sides and providing a place for an electronic product;

a clamping member and two stoppers, said clamping member and said stoppers being located at both the left and right sides of said placement surface, wherein said clamping member is able to move close to or away from said stoppers to clamp said electronic product between said clamping member and said two stoppers;

a moving unit, partially penetrating said base unit and moving linearly, said clamping member being installed on said moving unit at an installation position being a section of said moving unit not entering said base unit, a position of said clamping member being adjusted by said moving unit;

furthermore a bottom of said clamping member extending into said moving unit for short range movement opposite to a clamping direction, said moving unit having an elastic member, said elastic member providing restore power after said clamp changes position;

a release unit, installed on said base unit, releases clamping state of said clamping member; and

two rotation units, said rotation units having two ends, wherein one end pivotally connecting said base unit, the other end standing said stopper, said two rotation units taking pivotal connection as the center for said two stopper positions able to move close to or away from each other.

2. The device as claimed in claim 1, wherein a clamping surface of said stopper is a circular arc surface.

3. The device as claimed in claim 1, wherein a moving length of said moving unit is more than 1 time of the length of said base unit.

4. The device as claimed in claim 1, wherein said moving unit has a housing case, the bottom of said clamp member has a slider, said slider extends to said housing case, said housing case has at least one positioning member, and said positioning member makes said slider slide but not detach said housing case through an elongated guide hole on said slider.

5. The device as claimed in claim 1, wherein said elastic member is installed in a housing case.

6. The device as claimed in claim 1, wherein a housing case is located at the section of said moving unit not entering said base unit interior.

7. The device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the periphery of a pivotally connected end of said rotation unit has a number of cogging, and said base unit has a latch, said latch is an annular type, two opposite edges have a convex tooth, said convex tooth of said latch is compressed with offset, and said convex tooth is latched at corresponding alveolus of said rotation unit when assembled.

8. The device as claimed in claim 1, wherein a pivotally connected end of said rotation units further has a safety contact wall and cogging, said safety contact wall and said cogging are located at different heights, respectively, and said rotation unit is unable to be further rotated when said safety contact walls of said two rotation units are contacted each other.
