Patent attributes
A holding bracket includes a main body having several guiding rails crossing one another at their centers, where a gearwheel is disposed rotatably; four claw units in the main body, each having a toothed section meshed with the gearwheel and a sliding section contacting a respective guiding rail and a holding section and a portion of the sliding exposed from the main body such that rotation of the gearwheel results in simultaneous movement of the claw units relative to the main body. A biasing unit is confined in the main body and associates with one claw unit. A one-way brake unit disposed in the main body is movable linearly and contacts the sliding section of one claw unit such that when the brake unit is under an unreleased condition, the four claw units are movable only in a single direction toward the gearwheel or the center of the main body.
