The first clamping portion 121 is a member having a substantially U-shaped cross section and a rigidity that does not deform even when the electronic device E is clamped, and is disposed on the outside of the mounting body 11 via the first sliding portion 122. The first clamping portion 121 is provided so as to protrude from at least the front surface of the front mounting portion 1A, and includes a side clamping portion that abuts against one side of the electronic device E to clamp it, and a corner clamping portion that abuts against both ends of the side clamping portion to cover and clamp the corners of the electronic device E. The inside of the first clamping portion 121 is provided with an elastic material that acts as an anti-slip material, and the elastic material has a linear protruding pattern that acts as an anti-slip material (not shown). The side clamping portion has a pattern parallel to the abutting side to restrict the forward and backward movement of the electronic device E, and the corner clamping portion has a pattern perpendicular to the abutting side to restrict the left and right movement.

The first sliding parts 122 are two cylindrical members that protrude from the inside to the outside of the mounting body 11, and are made of metal in this embodiment. One end of the first sliding parts 122 is connected to the first clamping part 121, and the other end is fixed to the first rack 123. In addition, holes are formed at the top and bottom ends of the mounting body 11 through which the first sliding parts 122 can penetrate, and the first sliding parts 122 protrude through these holes.

The first rack 123 is integrally formed by a member that is fixed by engaging with the two first sliding parts 122 and a plate-shaped member that is disposed between the members and has a slotted hole cut out in the center. The plate-shaped member of the first rack 123 is disposed behind the central axis of the first sliding parts 122, thereby preventing interference with the second clamping body 13. The width of the cutout is at least greater than the maximum diameter of the pinion gear 14.

The first meshing portion 124 is provided on one side of the inner circumferential surface of the portion hollowed out by the first rack 123 so as to mesh with the pinion gear 14. The pinion gear 14 rotates in accordance with the up and down movement of the first clamping body 12, and the first clamping body 12 moves up and down in accordance with the rotation of the pinion gear 14.

The pressed portion 125 is a portion on the rear surface of the first rack 123 where multiple teeth extending in parallel in the left-right direction are arranged at equal intervals in the up-down direction. In this embodiment, two pressed portions 125 are arranged in parallel. The pressed portion 125 is arranged so that a portion of it is always exposed to the outside of the mounting body 11 via the pressing fitting portion 116.

The second clamping body 13 has a second clamping portion 131 having substantially the same configuration as the first clamping portion 121, a second sliding portion 132 having substantially the same configuration as the first sliding portion 122, a second rack 133 that slides inside the mounting body 11, a second meshing portion 134 provided on the inner peripheral surface of the cutout opposite the first meshing portion 124, and a tension spring 135 that biases the second clamping body 13 toward the inside of the mounting body 11.

The second rack 133 is integrally formed with a member that is engaged and fixed to the two first sliding parts 122 and a plate-like member that is placed between the members and has a long hole cut out in the center, and a part that can fix the tension spring 135 is provided adjacent to the member that is engaged and fixed.
Furthermore, the plate-shaped member of the second rack 133 is provided forward of the central axis of the second sliding portion 132 , thereby preventing interference with the first clamping body 12 .
The front surface of the second rack 133 may be provided with a restricting means that is slidably fitted into a rail material provided on the rear surface of the front mounting portion 1A and restricts movement in directions other than the up and down directions. A protrusion or a bearing may be used as the restricting means.

The tension spring 135 is a member having one end fixed to the second rack 133 and the other end fixed to the spring fixing portion 1A2, and biases the second clamping portion 131 in a direction in which it abuts against the mounting portion main body 11.

The pinion gear 14 has a central axis rotatably supported by the shaft support portion 1A1, and is a portion that meshes with the first meshing portion 124 and the second meshing portion 134, which are of different heights. This allows the first clamping body 12 and the second clamping body 13 to expand and contract in cooperation with each other, making installation easier and simplifying the structure.

5, and is fitted into the pressing fitting portion 116 to press the pressed portion 125. The pressing body 15 has a pressing body main body 150 which is a plate-shaped main body having an outer periphery substantially identical to that of the pressing fitting portion 116, a pressing portion 151 which actually presses the pressed portion 125, a protrusion portion 152 which receives an input from the operating body 17 and allows the pressing body 15 to move back and forth, and a spring support portion 153 which receives the action of the pressing spring 16 and moves the pressing body 15 away from the pressed portion 125.
5(a) is a bottom view, FIG. 5(b) is a plan view, FIG. 5(c) is a front view seen from the rear, FIG. 5(d) is a rear view, and FIG. 5(e) is a side view. Also, a schematic cross-sectional view of the action of the pressing body 15 is shown in FIG.

The surface facing the front of the pressing body 150 is positioned so that it is approximately flush with the rear surface of the rear attachment portion 1B when fitted into the pressing fitting portion 116, thereby saving space.

The pressing portion 151 is a rectangular parallelepiped protruding portion provided on the rear side of the pressing body main body 150, and its end face is provided with teeth of approximately the same shape as the teeth provided on the pressed portion 125. These teeth mesh when the pressed portion 125 is pressed, stopping the up and down movement of the first clamping body 12.

The protrusion 152 is a semi-cylindrical protruding part provided on the front side of the pressing body main body 150, and in this embodiment, two are provided so that they are inclined from the end toward the spring support part 153 when viewed from the front.

The spring support part 153 protrudes from the front side of the pressing body main body 150, and is provided in a hood shape that covers at least the end of the pressing spring 16 on the flat side. The protruding height to the front side is set to be approximately the same as the protruding height of the operation support part 114, and its outer circumferential surface is arranged to be part of a circle formed by the outer periphery of the operation support part 114 when attached.

The compression spring 16 is a part that is attached so as to fit into the insertion part provided directly below the pressing fitting part 116, and when the pressing body 15 is not pressed, it presses the spring support part 153 from the rear direction of the pressing body 15 so that the pressing part 151 and the pressed part 125 are separated.

7, the operating body 17 is a member provided between the vibration absorbing part 3 and the back side mounting part 1B. The operating body 17 has a rotating part 171 that is fitted into the outer periphery of the operation support part 114 and rotatably provided, an action part 172 that converts the rotation into an up and down action, a rotation regulating part 173 that regulates the range of rotation, and an operating part 174 that allows the user to apply a rotational action to the operating body 17.
7A is a front view of the attached operation body 17 when viewed from the rear direction, FIG. 7B is a rear view, and FIG. 7C is a bottom view.

The rotating part 171 is a ring-shaped part, and the operation support part 114 and the spring support part 153 are fitted to the inner circumference. A disk-shaped member that restricts movement in the front-rear direction is attached from the rear, so that the rotating part 171 is supported and fixed so as to be rotatable relative to the mounting part main body 11. The disk-shaped member is attached to the rear mounting part 1B via the screw hole H so as not to rotate.

The action portion 172 is provided on the back surface of the operating body 17, and is a portion cut out to form a recess of a predetermined depth. The action portion 172 is cut out gradually in a clockwise direction along the circumferential surface, and the cutout rises sharply at the position where the thickness of the operating body 17 is at its minimum. In the embodiment, two action portions 172 are provided, and the interval between them is approximately equal to a constant multiple of the interval at which the protrusions 152 are provided, thereby improving the stability of control.
This controls the vertical movement of the pressing body 15. That is, when the protrusion 152 is located at the action portion 172, the pressing body 15 is not pressed, and when the protrusion 152 is located somewhere other than the action portion 172, the pressing body 15 is pressed against the back side of the operating body 17 via the protrusion 152.

The rotation restricting portion 173 is a notch provided from the inner circumferential surface of the rotating portion 171 toward the outside, and as long as it is within the range of the notch, it can rotate freely without coming into contact with the operation restricting portion 115. The length of the notch is provided to be approximately the same as or slightly longer than the length of the acting portion 172, so that when the end of the rotation restricting portion 173 comes into contact with the operation restricting portion 115, the protrusion portion 152 is positioned at a position where the depth of the cutout of the acting portion 172 is approximately at its maximum or at a position where it comes into contact with the back surface of the rotating portion 171. This allows the pressure to be released or set when the operating body 17 is changed to its maximum, allowing intuitive operation.

The operating part 174 is a member that protrudes from the outer circumferential surface of the rotating part 171 and is provided integrally therewith, and is provided so that the distance from the center of the rotating part is greater than half the left-right width of the attachment part main body 11. This reduces the moment force required for rotation, making it easier to operate. In this embodiment, to further improve operability, the side of the operating part 174 is provided with non-slip irregularities.

The support part 2 is a member provided at the rear of the attachment X, and allows the attachment X to be attached to a pipe-shaped member such as the handle of a saddle-riding vehicle.

The vibration absorbing part 3 is a member that is attached between the mounting part 1 and the support part 2 and absorbs shock from the support part 2. The vibration absorbing part 3 has a plate part 31 that has a rigidity at least sufficient to not deform even when subjected to vibration, a damper part 32 that absorbs vibrations of the plate part 31, a spacing screw 33 for connecting to the mounting part 1 at a distance, and a support body 34 for connecting to the support part 2.

As shown in FIG. 8, the plate portion 31 is a plate-shaped member that is connectable between the mounting portion 1 and the support portion 2, and has a plate portion main body 311, a hole portion 312 for mounting the damper portion 32, and a spacing screw hole 314 for mounting the spacing screw 33.

The plate body 311 is a plate-like member that is attached parallel to the surface of the rear mounting part 1B, and as shown in FIG. 8, its front surface area is smaller than that of the mounting body 11, and when attached, the entirety is positioned inside the mounting body 11 when viewed from the front. This makes the vibration absorbing device invisible when viewed from the front, resulting in a streamlined design.

The plate body 311 is also configured so that it is constricted in the left-right direction and protrudes in the up-down direction, resulting in six protrusions at the center, with holes 312 and spaced screw holes 314 in each protrusion.

The plate body 311 is also arranged so that it is convex as a whole toward the support 34, ensuring a gap for the pressing mechanism P near the center. Furthermore, plate-shaped reinforcing members extend from the portion where the support 34 is attached to the back surface of the plate body 311 toward each hole, providing strength.

The holes 312 are holes that penetrate the plate body 311 in the front-rear direction, and four of them are arranged on the protrusions provided in the left-right direction of the plate body 311. The holes 312 are provided close to the side end of the plate body 311, which increases the moment force due to vibration related to each damper section 32, making it easier to absorb vibration. The diameter of the holes 312 is larger than the upper end of the damper section 32 and smaller than the lower end. This allows the holes 312 to support and penetrate the damper sections 32.

The hole protrusion 313 is a part that protrudes toward the inner circumference at the end face on the rear side (front surface) of the hole 312 and has a rigidity that does not easily deform. The length of the protrusion is about 1 mm to 2 mm, and the height of the protrusion is at least smaller than the height of the hole 312, preferably about 2 to 5 mm. The diameter of the hole protrusion 313 is larger than the outer diameter of the protrusion main body 112 or the diameter of the fitting portion 113, which makes installation easy. Furthermore, when installed, the hole protrusion 313 and the protrusion main body 112 are provided on the same plane, allowing the plate portion 31 to move parallel to that plane.

The spacing screw hole 314 is a hole that penetrates the plate body 311 in the front-rear direction, and allows the spacing screw 33 to pass through. In addition, a spacing protrusion 315 is provided similar to the hole protrusion 313, and the length from the spacing screw hole 314 to the inner peripheral surface of the protrusion is shorter than the diameter of the disk material 331, so that they come into contact.

The inner diameter of the spacing projection 315 is set to be at least larger than the shaft diameter of the spacing screw 33. Preferably, the distance from the shaft of the spacing screw 33 to the spacing projection 315 is set to be larger than the projection width of the cushion portion 324 relative to the constricted portion 323 described below, so as not to inhibit the deformation of the cushion portion 324.

The damper section 32 is a hollow elastic member that is integrally formed as a whole, with a shape as shown in FIG. 4. The damper section 32 has an opening 321 that opens at the bottom surface, a through-hole 322 that penetrates the plate section main body 311 through the hole 312, a constricted section 323 for fitting and fixing to the plate section main body 311, a cushion section 324 that is provided between the plate section main body 311 and the mounting section main body 11 and absorbs impacts from the plate section main body 311, and a protruding ring 325 that protrudes toward the inner peripheral surface at the bottom surface of the opening 321.

The opening 321 is an opening that connects to the hollow portion inside the damper section 32. The outer diameter of the opening 321 is at least larger than the inner diameter of the hole protrusion section 313, and is preferably approximately the same as or larger than the diameter of the hole section 312 so that it does not penetrate into the hole section 312. The inner diameter of the opening 321 is set to be at least larger than the diameter of the engagement section 113 in the up, down, left and right directions, thereby enabling the protrusion 111 to be engaged.

The through-hole 322 is formed to have a generally hemispherical shape with an outer diameter larger than the inner diameter of the hole projection 313 and smaller than the inner diameter of the hole 312, and its upper end protrudes from the plate body 311. As shown in FIG. 9, which is an A-A cross section of the plate 31 attached to the mounting body 11, the through-hole 322 has a space therein that is generally the same shape as the mating portion 113, and the mating portion 113 is mated into this space.

The constricted portion 323 is a ring-shaped portion with a narrower outer diameter that is provided between the through portion 322 and the cushion portion 324. The outer diameter of the constricted portion 323 is approximately the same as the inner diameter of the hole extension portion 313, so that it is fitted into the hole extension portion 313 and has a flat shape. The end face of the through portion 322 and the end face of the cushion portion 324 abut against and support the hole extension portion 313 so as to sandwich it, thereby determining the position of the plate portion 31 relative to the damper portion 32.

The cushion section 324 is a ring-shaped section with a roughly U-shaped cross section, one end of which abuts against the plate section main body 311, and the other end of which abuts against the mounting section main body 11 as a protruding ring 325. The cushion section 324 is flexible, and the relative position of the end abutting against the plate section main body 311 with respect to the end abutting against the mounting section main body 11 can be freely changed within the range of deformation of the ring-shaped member connecting the two sections. In other words, the cushion section 324 is deformable toward the plate section main body 311, and the relative position of the plate section 31 with respect to the mounting section main body 11 can be freely changed.

The protruding ring 325 is a part that protrudes inward from the end face of the opening 321 and has a flat bottom surface that abuts against the mounting body 11, and uses its elasticity to hermetically close the opening 321. The damper section 32 is airtight except for the opening 321, so air is trapped inside the damper section 32.

The spacing screw 33 is a member for determining and fixing the maximum spacing between the mounting body 11 and the plate body 311, and has a shaft 330, a disk material 331 which is a disk-shaped portion provided midway along the shaft 330, and a screw head 332 which is a member provided at the end of the shaft 330.

The shaft portion 330 is a portion whose one end is screwed into a screw hole provided in the spaced screw attachment portion 117 and whose other end is provided with a screw head 332. Since the diameter of the shaft portion 330 is smaller than the diameter of the spaced protrusion portion 315, the plate portion main body 311 can move in a direction perpendicular to the shaft portion 330.

The disk material 331 is a part provided midway through the spacing screw 33 and is fixed at a predetermined position on the shaft portion 330. The disk material 331 abuts against the spacing screw mounting portion 117 to keep the distance from the mounting portion main body 11 to the screw head 332 constant, and determines the maximum displacement of the plate portion main body 311.

The screw head 332 is provided at the end of the spacing screw 33, and its diameter is at least larger than the inner diameter of the spacing protrusion 315 and smaller than the inner diameter of the spacing screw hole 314. The difference in diameter between the screw head 332 and the spacing screw hole 314 is set to be approximately the same as the difference in diameter between the shaft portion 330 and the spacing protrusion 315, so as not to impede the movement of the cushion portion 324.

As shown in FIG. 9, the height of the cushion section 324 is set to be approximately the same as the distance between the mounting section main body 11 and the plate section main body 311, and this distance is also set to be approximately the same as the difference between the distance from the mounting section main body 11 to the screw head 332 and the thickness of the plate section main body 311. This allows the flat mounting section main body 11 and the protruding ring 325 to always be in contact with each other, making the inside of the attached damper section 32 airtight.

The support 34 is a member that protrudes rearward from the center of the plate body 311, and in this embodiment is provided as a ball joint.

The following describes in detail a method for implementing the present invention with reference to the drawings. The present invention is implemented by a user who attaches electronic device E to mounting fixture X, which is provided with vibration absorbing device 3. The following implementation method is an example, and is not limited to this, and the steps may be implemented in any order.

First, the user attaches the support part 2 to the handlebar of the saddle-riding vehicle, and then attaches the support body 34 protruding from the mounting fixture X to the support part 2.

Next, the user attaches the electronic device E to the mounting portion 1. The user rotates the operating body 17 to release the pressure from the pressing body 15 and slide either the first clamping body 12 or the second clamping body 13 in a direction away from the mounting portion main body 11, widening the gap between the clamping bodies.

Then, the user inserts the electronic device E between the expanded clamping bodies and releases the force being applied in the direction to expand the clamping bodies. Then, the tension spring 135 and the pinion gear 14 act, causing the first clamping body 12 and the second clamping body 13 to act in a direction pressing against the electronic device E, and the electronic device E is clamped.

Then, the user rotates the operating part 174 to a position where the pressing part 151 presses the pressed part 125. This restricts the up and down movement of the pressed part 125, and prevents the first sliding part 122 and the second sliding part 132 from moving as shown in FIG. 6, thereby enabling the electronic device E to be firmly fixed.

The user operates the saddle-ride vehicle. At this time, vibrations are transmitted to the vibration absorber 3 through the support part 2, but the multiple damper parts 32 elastically deform, changing the distance and angle of the plate part main body 311 relative to the mounting part main body 11, absorbing the vibrations and making the mounting part 1 less susceptible to vibration. Here, the damper parts 32 become airtight, suppressing sudden elastic deformation due to the compressibility of the air inside, and improving vibration absorption.
