Housing assembly and its electronic equipment, control method

Abstract

The present application provides a casing assembly and its electronic equipment, and a control method; the casing assembly includes: a casing, a button module, and an indicating module; the casing includes a first connection surface, a second connection surface, and an appearance surface , the first connecting surface is provided with a mounting groove, the appearance surface is provided with a mounting hole, and the mounting hole is adjacent to the mounting groove; the button module is arranged in the mounting groove for sensing the touch operation from the appearance surface; the indication module Embedded in the mounting hole; the indicating module includes a housing and an indicator light set in the housing. The housing is provided with an electrochromic device on at least the surface exposed to the mounting hole. The electrochromic device can block or expose the indicator light by changing its state. Light emitted through the mounting hole. The indicator light of the shell assembly is combined with the electrochromic device, and by controlling the state of the indicator light and the electrochromic device, the position indication of the side key and the hidden indicator light can be performed to improve product experience and appearance expression.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of electronic equipment side key structure and control, in particular to a casing assembly, electronic equipment and a control method thereof. Background technique [0002] Side keys are a common structure in electronic equipment. In conventional technology, the side keys (power key or volume key, etc.) of electronic equipment are all plastic or metal structures that protrude from the side of the whole machine, that is, physical key structures. The main disadvantage of this structure is that the physical button and the frame (or shell) are combined in two parts, and holes need to be opened in the frame position, which will lead to poor waterproof effect and affect the reliability of the whole machine; on the other hand, the button The opposite side protrudes, and the appearance consistency effect is poor. [0003] In addition, non-physical buttons are also used in the conventional technology, that is, the b...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

The main disadvantage of this structure is that the physical button and the frame (or shell) are combined in two parts, and holes need to be opened in the frame position, which will lead to poor waterproof effect and affect the reliability of the whole machine; on the other hand, the button Relatively protruding sides, poor appearance consistency

[0003] In addition, non-physical buttons are also used in the conventional technology, that is, the button module is pasted on the inside of the casing, and the casing has no protruding structure, but it is necessary to set a groove or other form of marking indicating the position of the side button on the position corresponding to the button module on the frame. Due to the existence of marks, this structure will also affect the appearance consistency of the outer side of the frame
