Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the structure of an intelligent laser projector. Background Technology

[0002] A smart projector, as the name suggests, is a miniature projector with a built-in operating system. The functions differ depending on the operating system. In the market, smart projectors are mainly divided into two categories: Android smart projectors and Linux-based smart projectors. They are a type of smart electronic product that has emerged in recent years. These projectors feature expandable hardware and software, human-computer interaction, and multimedia connectivity, enabling applications such as web search, online video, video-on-demand (VOD), digital music, online educational resources, and more.

[0003] Smart projectors are becoming the third information access terminal after computers and mobile phones, allowing users to access the information they need anytime. Smart projectors are also becoming a type of intelligent device.

The left and right sides of the enclosure frame are equipped with ventilation structures that cooperate with the intake and exhaust fans. By having the intake fan draw air into the projector and the exhaust fan exhaust air outwards, it helps to accelerate the entry of cool air into the projector and the expulsion of hot air. The intake fan is installed higher than the exhaust fan, thereby increasing the airflow area.

[0037] In this embodiment, the aforementioned enclosure frame includes a plastic middle frame 21 with a notch at the rear end.

A rear interface plate 24 is installed on the notch at the rear side of the plastic middle frame. The upper part of the rear interface plate has several connectors for connecting to a circuit board or power board.

[0038] In this embodiment, an upper cover 100 is installed at the upper end of the enclosure frame. The upper cover is fixed to the middle frame assembly by a snap-fit ​​mechanism. The plastic middle frame is provided with a snap-fit ​​groove 25, and the snap-fit ​​of the upper cover is provided with a C-angle to facilitate the release of the upper cover. The middle frame assembly and the rear interface plate are installed on the lower cover assembly by a snap-fit ​​structure and locked to the optical engine bracket by screws. The rear interface plate is also locked to the middle frame assembly by bolts.

[0039] In this embodiment, a power button 140 connected to a circuit board or power board is installed on the upper cover. The power button includes a power button and a button plate, which are respectively locked into the upper cover with screws to form an upper cover assembly. The structure of this physical switch button includes a keycap and silicone, and the silicone triggers the button to operate.

[0040] In this embodiment, a camera module 110, a ranging module 120, and a lens bracket assembly 130 of an optical engine module are provided on the front side of the middle frame assembly of the enclosure frame.

[0041] Specifically, the aforementioned camera module and ranging module are fixed to the front side of the plastic frame via camera bracket 111, with the camera module and ranging module extending through a metal mesh. The camera module and ranging module are equipped with a dustproof structure using silicone sleeves.

[0042] Specifically, the aforementioned lens bracket assembly includes a lens bracket 131, which is locked and installed inside the mounting hole at the front of the mid-frame assembly. An aluminum decorative ring 132 is fixed inside the lens bracket with adhesive backing. A first dustproof foam 133 is provided between the lens bracket and the optical engine module. A decorative ring 134 is installed inside the mounting hole at the front of the mid-frame assembly via a snap-fit ​​structure. A lens element 135 of the optical engine module is adhered to the inside of the decorative ring with adhesive backing. A second dustproof foam 136 is provided between the decorative ring and the lens bracket.

Unless otherwise stated, the above terms have no special meaning.

[0044] If this utility model discloses or relates to mutually fixedly connected parts or structural components, then unless otherwise stated, a fixed connection can be understood as: a detachable fixed connection (e.g., using bolts or screws) or a non-detachable fixed connection (e.g., riveting or welding). Of course, mutually fixed connections can also be replaced by an integral structure (e.g., manufactured using a casting process) (except where it is obviously impossible to use an integral forming process).

[0045] In addition, unless otherwise stated, the terms used to indicate positional relationships or shapes in any of the technical solutions disclosed in this utility model above include states or shapes that are similar to, close to, or approximate with them.

[0046] Any component provided by this utility model can be assembled from multiple individual components, or it can be a single component manufactured by a one-piece molding process.
