Abstract
A holder for a mobile electronic device includes first and second clamping jaws, at least the first clamping jaw being displaceable toward the second clamping jaw to clamp the mobile electronic device. The holder also includes a stop element and an entraining element connected to the first clamping jaw, the entraining element being shaped so that it is displaceable with respect to the stop element, namely jointly with the clamping jaw connected to it, in which case at least one extreme position corresponding to the maximum opening of the clamping jaw is defined in the displacement path by the impact of the stop element against the entraining element. The holder includes a damper element, which is mounted on the stop element and damps the stopping of the stop element against the entraining element.
