Benefits of technology

[0005] The primary object of the present invention is to provide a fastening apparatus to facilitate installation and removal of a car multimedia player so that users can install the multimedia player quickly when needed and remove the multimedia player easily when not in use, and also guard against theft and dust pollution.

Problems solved by technology

For the earlier cars that do not have the holding dock, there is no holding structure to allow the multimedia player to be easily installed or removed.
It cannot be removed readily.
As a result, when the driver leaves the car, the multimedia player could be stolen easily.
Moreover, when projected by sunlight and subject to high temperature, the life span of the multimedia player shortened.

second embodiment

[0030] To avoid turning of the car multimedia player A becomes a problem, a second embodiment is provided shown in FIGS. 7 and 8. A first fastening member 6 having a body 60 which has at least two struts 61 and 62 mating at least two coupling bores 711 and 714 formed on the second fastening member 71 of a body 70 of a car multimedia player 7. The car multimedia player 7 may be directly installed by coupling the coupling bores 711 and 714 with the struts 61 and 62. To increase the mounting steadiness, as the previous embodiment, the body 60 has one or more magnets 603 and 604 to attract the metallic semi-circular extensions 712 and 713 of the second fastening member 71. For removing, merely disengage the car multimedia player 7 from the struts 61 and 62. This embodiment is preferable for mounting onto the central control board or central armrest, but is less desirable for mounting to the car top.

third embodiment

[0031] Another approach to avoid the problem of turning of the car multimedia player A is a third embodiment shown in FIGS. 9 and 10. A first fastening member 92 has a body 921 which has one or more first sliding troughs 922 and 923 mating one or more second sliding troughs 931 and 932 formed on a second fastening member 93 of the body 91 of the car multimedia player 9. The second sliding troughs 931 and 932 may be directly coupled with the first sliding troughs 922 and 923 to mount the car multimedia player 9 on the body 921. To increase the mounting steadiness, as the previous embodiment, the body 91 has one or more magnets 924 and 925 to attract the metal portion of the second fastening member 93. For removing, merely disengage the car multimedia player 9 from the first sliding troughs 922 and 923 of the first fastening member 92.

Abstract

A fastening apparatus for a detachable car multimedia player includes a first fastening member and a second fastening member. The first fastening member is fastened to an anchor seat and has a strut which has a wing flap extended sideward from the top end. The second fastening member is located on the bottom of the car multimedia player and has a coupling bore. The first fastening member may be coupled with the second fastening member to rapidly mount the car multimedia player and remove the car multimedia player when not in use to prevent theft and dust pollution.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001] 1. Field of the Invention [0002] The invention relates to a fastening apparatus for a car multimedia player and particularly to a fastening apparatus to facilitate rapid installation and removal of a car multimedia player. [0003] 2. Description of the Prior Art [0004] The holding dock for a car multimedia player now is available on some new cars. For the earlier cars that do not have the holding dock, there is no holding structure to allow the multimedia player to be easily installed or removed. Referring to FIG. 11, the conventional approach is to hold a multimedia player A1 on a dock fastened to the central control board B1 of the car (close to the windshield). It cannot be removed readily. As a result, when the driver leaves the car, the multimedia player could be stolen easily. Moreover, when projected by sunlight and subject to high temperature, the life span of the multimedia player shortened. When not in use, users also have to cover the mul...
