Abstract
A portable and adjustable fastening mechanism is used to detachably fastening a mobile electronic device to an object. The fastening mechanism includes a gripping members located at end portions of a first support and symmetrically arranged about a geometric center of the first support. The gripping members can hold the electronic device and be fixed to an object in a way that the electronic device can be detached from the fastening mechanism through a single-hand operation. The gripping members include an unlocking component that unlocks the locked gripping members; a taking-out-channel opening component disengaging the unlocking component from the edges of the electronic device; and a restoring assembly storing restoring potential energy when the unlocking component is disengaged from the edges of the electronic device and releasing the restoring potential energy to apply a restoring force to the unlocking component when the gripping members are unlocked.
