Electronic product shell with waterproof side edge button

Abstract

Provided is an electronic product shell with a waterproof side edge button. The electronic product shell comprises a first shell member, a second shell member and a side edge button. The first shell member and the second shell member are respectively provided with side circumferential plates which can be mutually nested, and a channel enabling the internal and external parts of the shell to be communicated, a first position-limiting groove which extends towards the first shell member from the channel, and a second position-limiting groove which extends towards the second shell member from the channel are commonly formed. The side edge button is provided with a pedestal and a pressing part which protrudes and stretches out from the pedestal, and thickness of the pedestal is greater than or equal to width of the first and second position-limiting grooves. The side edge button is arranged on the channel, and the pedestal is plugged in the first and second position-limiting grooves. Therefore, the shell is excellent in waterproof effect, high in structural intensity and quite easy to assemble.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an electronic product casing (such as a mobile phone casing) with side buttons, in particular to an electronic product casing with waterproof side buttons. Background technique [0002] The shells of many electronic products on the market, especially the shells of portable electronic products, are mostly composed of two shell parts that are interlocked with each other. There are usually slots for setting side buttons, such as volume adjustment keys or shutter keys. The traditional side buttons are pasted on the two shells with double-sided tape, which is not only cumbersome and time-consuming to assemble, but also prone to incomplete pasting, and the pasting and fixing effect of the double-sided tape is also difficult to last; in addition, The slots of the housing are prone to water ingress, causing damage to the internal circuits of the electronic product. [0003] Therefore, people in the industry have developed a waterproo...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

The traditional side buttons are pasted on the two shells with double-sided tape, which is not only cumbersome and time-consuming to assemble, but also prone to incomplete pasting, and the pasting and fixing effect of the double-sided tape is also difficult to last; in addition, The slot of the shell is easy to get water and cause damage to the internal circuit of the electronic product

[0003] Therefore, people in the industry have developed a waterproof button, such as U.S. Patent No. 5,258,592, which forms grooves at the joints of the shells and inserts the side buttons between the two shells. Avoid the problem that the fixing effect of the aforementioned pasting method is difficult to last, and it has a slight waterproof function, but the waterproof effect is still not ideal, and there are still disadvantages such as inconvenient assembly and low structural strength.
