Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of electronic equipment, and in particular to an electronic equipment. Background Art

[0002] With the development of technology, electronic devices such as mobile phones and tablets have gradually become important communication devices in people's daily lives. When people use electronic devices to communicate, they need to receive or transmit signals through antennas. Antennas usually include circuits and antenna radiators. The circuit is arranged on a circuit board inside the electronic device, and the antenna radiator is arranged on the housing of the electronic device. When assembling the electronic device, the circuit board needs to be electrically connected to the housing so that the circuit board can be electrically connected to the antenna radiator. Since the housing of the electronic device has poor conductivity, a copper sheet needs to be arranged on the housing to improve the stability of the electrical connection between the circuit board and the housing. Since the circuit board usually needs to be electrically connected to the housing through multiple contacts, multiple copper sheets need to be arranged on the housing, and each copper sheet is welded to the housing separately. This method increases the area of ​​each copper sheet, which is not conducive to optimizing the structure of the electronic device. Summary of the invention

[0003] The present application provides an electronic device for solving the problem that a connector includes only a single contact point and a connection area needs to be set for each contact point, resulting in a large connector area, occupying the internal space of the electronic device and a cumbersome installation process.

[0004] An embodiment of the present application provides an electronic device, the electronic device comprising:

[0005] A shell; a circuit board, the circuit board comprising a first spring sheet and a second spring sheet; a connector, the connector comprising a first contact and a second contact, the first spring sheet being used to be electrically connected to the first contact, the second spring sheet being used to be electrically connected to the second contact, the first contact and the second contact being electrically connected to the shell via a same laser weld, and the laser weld being arranged on the connector.

[0006] Since the laser welding spot occupies a large area, in the present application, the two springs are electrically connected to the housing through the same laser welding spot, which reduces the area occupied by the laser welding spot, is conducive to miniaturization, lightness and thinness of electronic equipment, and better meets the use requirements.

[0007] In a possible implementation, the shell is a side frame of the electronic device.

[0008] Usually, the side frame of the electronic device is designed with an antenna function, and the spring of the circuit board is electrically connected to the side frame through the contact of the connector, which improves the electrical connection performance and thus improves the antenna performance. In addition, by electrically connecting the connector to the side frame, the space occupied by the connector inside the electronic device is further reduced.

[0009] In a possible design, the connecting member includes a first connecting section and a second connecting section; the first contact is arranged on the first connecting section, and the second contact is arranged on the second connecting section; the laser welding point is arranged on the first connecting section, and the connecting member is electrically connected to the side frame through the laser welding point; the first connecting section is electrically connected to the first side of the side frame; the length direction of the first connecting section is the same as the extension direction of the first side.

[0010] The first connecting section is arranged parallel to the first side of the side frame, occupying the structural space between the circuit board and the side frame; the structural space of the electronic device is effectively utilized, thereby improving the utilization rate of the structural space.

[0011] In a possible implementation, the connector further includes a third contact, the third contact is disposed on the first connection segment, and the third contact and the first contact are spaced apart along a length direction of the first connection segment.

[0012] By arranging a plurality of contacts on the first connection section, the area of ​​electrical connection between the circuit board and the connecting member is increased, thereby improving the stability of the electrical connection between the two.

[0013] In a possible implementation manner, a connection direction between the first elastic sheet and the first contact is parallel to a plane where the circuit board is located.

[0014] By making the connection direction between the first spring sheet and the first contact parallel to the plane where the circuit board is located, since the first contact is arranged in the first connection section parallel to the first side of the side frame, the connection position of the first spring sheet and the first contact occupies the space between the circuit board and the side frame, thereby improving the space utilization rate of the electronic device structure; in addition, the connection direction between the first spring sheet and the first contact is from the circuit board to the side frame, thereby improving the connection reliability.

[0015] In a possible implementation manner, the second connecting section extends along the first edge toward the circuit board.

[0016] The second connecting section extending along the first edge of the side frame toward the circuit board is positively connected to the elastic sheet arranged on the circuit board.

[0017] In a possible implementation manner, the connecting member includes a plurality of second connecting segments, and each of the second connecting segments is arranged along a length direction of the first connecting segment.

[0018] According to actual needs, a plurality of second connecting sections may be provided, and each second connecting section is provided with a second contact point, thereby facilitating electrical connection between the circuit board and the connecting member.

[0019] In a possible implementation manner, a connection direction between the second elastic piece and the second contact is perpendicular to a plane where the circuit board is located.

[0020] Such a design can facilitate the abutment between the second contact and the second spring sheet. When assembling the electronic device, the second contact and the second spring sheet can be abutted by placing the circuit board along the thickness direction of the electronic device, thereby enabling the circuit board to be electrically connected to the side frame through the connector.

[0021] In a possible implementation manner, the side frame is provided with a support member, the support member protrudes relative to the side frame toward the circuit board, and the support member is used to support the second connecting section.

[0022] The boss is provided to provide support for the second connecting section, thereby reducing the possibility of unstable connection between the second elastic sheet and the second contact point due to deformation of the second connecting section.

[0023] The embodiment of the present application provides an electronic device, wherein the electronic device may include a housing, a circuit board and a connector, the circuit board may include at least one first spring sheet and at least one second spring sheet, the connector may include a first connecting section and a second connecting section connected to each other, wherein the first connecting section is provided with at least one first contact, the second connecting section is provided with at least one second contact, the first spring sheet is used to be electrically connected to the first contact, and the second spring sheet is used to be electrically connected to the second contact. The connector is provided with a laser welding point, and since the first connecting section and the second connecting section are connected to each other, the first connecting section and the second connecting section can be connected to the housing through the same laser welding point, and thus there is no need to respectively provide laser welding points for the first connecting section and the second connecting section, and by reducing the area of ​​the welding point of the connector as a whole, the space occupied by the connector is reduced, thereby optimizing the internal structure of the electronic device, which is conducive to miniaturization and thinness of the electronic device.

[0051] In order to better understand the technical solution of the present application, the embodiments of the present application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0052] It should be clear that the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in the field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0053] The terms used in the embodiments of the present application are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments, and are not intended to limit the present application. The singular forms "a", "said" and "the" used in the embodiments of the present application and the appended claims are also intended to include plural forms, unless the context clearly indicates other meanings.

[0054] It should be understood that the term "and / or" used in this article is only a description of the association relationship of associated objects, indicating that there can be three relationships. For example, A and / or B can represent: A exists alone, A and B exist at the same time, and B exists alone. In addition, the character " / " in this article generally indicates that the associated objects before and after are in an "or" relationship.

[0055] It should be noted that the directional words such as "upper", "lower", "left", and "right" described in the embodiments of the present application are described at the angles shown in the accompanying drawings and should not be understood as limiting the embodiments of the present application. In addition, in the context, it is also necessary to understand that when it is mentioned that an element is connected to another element "upper" or "lower", it can not only be directly connected to another element "upper" or "lower", but also indirectly connected to another element "upper" or "lower" through an intermediate element.

[0056] With the development of technology, electronic devices such as mobile phones and tablet computers have become important communication tools in people's daily lives. The antenna of the electronic device usually includes an antenna assembly and a circuit. The antenna assembly is arranged in the housing of the electronic device, and the circuit is arranged on a circuit board inside the electronic device. By electrically connecting the circuit board to the housing, the circuit can be electrically connected to the antenna assembly, so that the antenna can work normally to receive or send signals. Since the surface conductivity of the housing is poor, in order to improve the stability of the electrical connection between the circuit board and the antenna assembly arranged in the housing, a connector is usually provided on the housing, and the connector is usually provided with a connection area for welding (in the embodiment of the present application, the connection area can be a laser welding point); and a contact, the connector is connected to the housing by welding, and the circuit board abuts against the contact on the connector to achieve electrical connection between the circuit board and the housing, thereby achieving electrical connection between the circuit board and the antenna assembly. However, in general, the circuit board needs to be electrically connected to the antenna assembly through multiple different positions. Therefore, it is necessary to set multiple connectors at different positions of the housing so that the positions where the circuit board and the housing are electrically connected are all provided with contacts to improve the stability of the electrical connection between the circuit board and the housing. Qualitatively, such a method requires welding of each connector, and since the area of ​​the connector used for welding will appear uneven after welding, the electrical connection between the circuit board and the connector will be unstable. To solve the above problems, spot welding areas for welding and contacts for electrical connection are usually provided on each connector. However, such a method requires a separate connector to be provided at each electrical connection position, and each connector needs to be provided with a spot welding area, which increases the area of ​​the connector and occupies additional internal space of the electronic device, which is not conducive to optimizing the internal structure of the electronic device. At the same time, during the assembly process of the electronic device, welding needs to be performed multiple times, and the contacts of each connector need to be positioned, which makes the assembly process of the electronic device cumbersome.

[0057] In the prior art, when the shrapnel is connected to the shell by laser welding, the shrapnel needs to be provided with a laser welding point. Since the laser welding point has a protrusion, the protrusion affects the electrical connection performance between the shrapnel and the shell. Therefore, the shrapnel needs to be provided with at least a laser welding point area and an area in contact with the shrapnel, resulting in the size of each shrapnel being larger.

[0058] In this solution, the first shrapnel is welded to the mainboard by laser welding, and the second shrapnel is connected to the first shrapnel through a conductive medium. No laser welding is required between the second shrapnel and the mainboard, and the second shrapnel saves the area of ​​the laser welding point.

[0059] (The conductivity of the surface of the middle frame is poor, so the motherboard spring needs to be electrically connected to the middle frame through the copper sheet)

[0060] In view of this, an embodiment of the present application provides an electronic device for optimizing the structure of the electronic device and simplifying the assembly steps of the electronic device.

[0061] like Figure 1 to Figure 6 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides an electronic device, wherein the electronic device includes a housing 1, a circuit board 2 and a connector 3, the circuit board 2 has at least one first elastic piece 21 and at least one second elastic piece 22, the connector 3 has a first connecting section 31 and a second connecting section 32 connected to each other, and the two can be integrally arranged, the first connecting section 31 has at least one first contact 311, the second connecting section 32 has at least one second contact 321, the first elastic piece 21 is used to be electrically connected to the first contact 311, and the second elastic piece 22 is used to be electrically connected to the second contact 321. The connector 3 may include a connecting area 33, the connecting area 33 may be arranged in the first connecting section 31 and / or the second connecting section 32, and the first connecting section 31 and the second connecting section 32 are connected to the housing 1 through the same connecting area 33.

[0062] The embodiment of the present application provides an electronic device, wherein the connector 3 can be made of metal, and a metal with good conductivity such as copper can be selected. Specifically, the first contact 311 and the second contact 321 can be respectively set at the corresponding positions of the first connecting section 31 and the second connecting section 32 according to actual needs, so that the circuit board 2 can be electrically connected to the shell 1 through the first contact 311 and the second contact 321. Since the first connecting section 31 and the second connecting section 32 are connected to each other, the two can be connected to the shell 1 through the same connecting area 33, and there is no need to set corresponding connecting areas 33 for the first connecting section 31 and the second connecting section 32, respectively, so that the area of ​​the overall connecting area 33 of the connector 3 can be reduced. By sharing the same connecting area 33, the problem of increasing the area of ​​the connector 3 and occupying the internal space of the electronic device due to setting multiple connecting areas 33 is reduced. The electronic device provided by the embodiment of the present application improves the stability of the electrical connection between the circuit board 2 and the shell 1, and also optimizes the internal structure of the electronic device, which is convenient for realizing miniaturization and thinness of the electronic device.

[0063] Specifically, Figure 4 As shown, the housing 1 has a circumferential side wall 13, and the housing 1 can be a side frame of the electronic device. The circumferential side wall 13 is arranged along the circumference of the electronic device, and the connector 3 is connected to the circumferential side wall 13. In a possible design, the circumferential side wall 13 can be a middle frame of the electronic device. Usually, the antenna assembly of the electronic device is arranged on the circumferential side wall 13. By arranging the connector 3 on the circumferential side wall 13, the conductivity of the circumferential side wall 13 can be improved, thereby facilitating the electrical connection between the circuit board 2 and the antenna assembly, and improving the ability of the antenna assembly to transmit and receive signals.

[0064] At the same time, since each contact is arranged on the same connector 3, when the circuit board 2 is connected to each contact, the electrical signal can be transmitted to the antenna assembly through the same connector 3, thereby reducing the possibility that when the contacts are arranged on different connectors 3, the transmission speed of the electrical signal will be inconsistent due to certain differences in the conductive properties of each connector 3, thereby affecting the performance of the antenna assembly and destroying the consistency of the antenna assembly.

[0065] The electronic device provided in the embodiment of the present application can improve the consistency of the electronic device while optimizing the internal space of the electronic device. In addition, when the antenna assembly receives or transmits a signal, a part of space is required to allow the signal of the antenna assembly to pass through. Therefore, when the antenna assembly is installed in the electronic device, a part of clean space, referred to as clearance, needs to be reserved for the antenna assembly. The electronic device provided in the embodiment of the present application optimizes the internal space of the electronic device by arranging the connector 3 on the circumferential side wall 13 of the electronic device, increases the clearance of the antenna assembly, and thereby enables the antenna assembly to have sufficient space to receive or transmit signals, further improving the performance of the antenna, thereby improving the overall performance of the electronic device, and improving the user experience.

[0066] like Figure 6 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides an electronic device, wherein the first connecting section 31 is parallel to the circumferential side wall 13, and the length direction of the first connecting section 31 is the same as the extension direction of the circumferential side wall 13, so that Figure 6 Taking the shown embodiment as an example, the length direction Y of the first connecting segment 31 is the same as the extension direction of the circumferential side wall 13, and the first connecting segment 31 can be arranged in a fit with the circumferential side wall 13. By fitting the first connecting segment 31 with the circumferential side wall 13, the space occupied by the connector 3 can be further reduced, thereby optimizing the structure of the electronic device and making the internal structure of the electronic device more reasonable, thereby making the electronic device smaller, lighter and thinner, and more in line with the user's needs.

[0067] like Fig.11 As shown, in a possible design, the connector 3 may include a plurality of first contacts 311, each of which is arranged along the length direction Y of the first connecting section 31. By arranging a plurality of first contacts 311 on the first connecting section 31, the area of ​​the electrical connection between the circuit board 2 and the first connecting section 31 is increased, thereby improving the stability of the electrical connection between the two.

[0068] Specifically, Figure 2As shown, the circumferential side wall 13 can enclose a receiving space 11, the circuit board 2 is located in the receiving space 11, and the plane where the circuit board 2 is located is parallel to the thickness direction of the circumferential side wall 13, the first spring piece 21 is on the surface of the circuit board 2 and protrudes along the direction of the circumferential side wall 13, and the first spring piece 21 abuts against the first contact 311 along the plane direction where the circuit board 2 is located. Such a design can reduce the space required for connecting the circuit board 2 and the connector 3 because the first contact 311 is set in the first connecting section 31 that is in contact with the circumferential side wall 13.

[0069] like Fig.10 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides an electronic device, wherein the second connecting section 32 is perpendicular to the first connecting section 31, and the second connecting section 32 extends toward the interior of the accommodating space 11 surrounded by the circumferential side wall 13. When the second spring piece 22 is set at a non-edge position of the circuit board 2, it can be connected through the second connecting section 32, and the edge position of the circuit board 2 can be used to set the first spring piece 21, thereby reducing the possibility of interference between the setting positions of the first spring piece 21 and the second spring piece 22.

[0070] Specifically, Fig.10 As shown, the connector 3 may include a plurality of second connecting segments 32, each of which is arranged along the length direction Y of the first connecting segment 31. According to actual needs, a plurality of second connecting segments 32 may be arranged, and each of the second connecting segments 32 is respectively provided with a second contact 321 to facilitate the connection between the second spring piece 22 and the second contact 321, while increasing the area of ​​the electrical connection between the circuit board 2 and the connector 3, thereby improving the stability of the electrical connection between the two.

[0071] like Figure 2 and 3 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides an electronic device, wherein the circuit board 2 is located in the accommodation space 11, and the plane where the circuit board 2 is located is parallel to the thickness direction of the circumferential side wall 13, and the second elastic piece 22 is arranged on the surface of the circuit board 2 and protrudes along the thickness direction of the circuit board. When the circuit board 2 is located in the accommodation space 11, the second elastic piece 22 abuts against the second contact 321 along the direction perpendicular to the plane of the circuit board 2. Such a design can facilitate the connection between the second elastic piece 22 and the second contact 321. When installing the circuit board 2, the circuit board 2 is placed in the accommodation space 11 along the thickness direction of the electronic device to achieve the abutment of the second elastic piece 22 and the second contact 321, thereby electrically connecting the two.

[0072] like Figure 6As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides an electronic device, wherein a circumferential side wall 13 may be provided with a boss 12, the boss 12 is perpendicular to the end face of the circumferential side wall 13 and extends toward the interior of the accommodating space 11, the boss 12 can be used to support the second connecting section 32, the second connecting section 32 is located between the boss 12 and the circuit board 2, when the circuit board 2 is connected to one side of the second connecting section 32, the other side of the second connecting section 32 abuts against the boss 12, so that the boss 12 can provide support for the second connecting section 32, reduce the interaction force between the second connecting section 32 and the circuit board 2, cause the second connecting section 32 to deform, deviate from the preset position, cause the circuit board 2 and the second contact 321 set in the second connecting section 32 to have poor contact, or cannot be connected, so the embodiment of the present application can further improve the stability of the electrical connection between the circuit board 2 and the second contact 321 by setting the boss 12.

[0073] Specifically, the first connecting section 31 is provided with a connecting area 33, and the first connecting section 31 can be welded to the circumferential side wall 13 through the connecting area 33. The welding method can be laser welding. The position of the connecting part 3 on the circumferential side wall 13 is pre-positioned, and the connecting part 3 is placed in a preset position. The connecting area 33 is heated by laser radiation, and the surface heat is diffused to the inside through heat conduction, so that the connecting area 33 is melted, so that the connecting part 3 is connected to the circumferential side wall 13. The laser welding method is easy to operate and can reduce the heat to the minimum required amount. The metallographic change range of the heat-affected zone is small, and the deformation caused by heat conduction is also relatively small.

[0074] Specifically, in a possible design, the material of the connector 3 is metallic copper, and the circumferential side wall is an aluminum-magnesium alloy. The two are fixedly connected by laser welding and can be electrically connected, so that the circuit board can be electrically connected to the shell through the connector, thereby electrically connecting the circuit board to the antenna assembly, so that the antenna assembly can transmit and receive signals.

[0075] In addition to the connector 3 including the first contact 311 and the second contact 321 involved in the above-mentioned embodiments, the embodiment of the present application also provides Figure 7 The connector 3 shown in the figure, wherein the connector 3 may only include a first connecting section 31, the first connecting section 31 has a plurality of first contacts 311 spaced apart along the length direction Y of the first connecting section 31, each first contact 311 is connected to the circumferential side wall 13 through the same connecting area 33, such a design can omit the second connecting section 32 extending toward the interior of the accommodating space 11, thereby reducing the space occupied by the connector 3 and increasing the clearance of the antenna assembly.

[0076] In addition, the connecting member 3 can also be Figure 8As shown, the connector 3 may include only the second contact 321. By arranging the connection area 33 on the first connection section 31, the second connection section 32 does not need to be fixedly connected to the boss 12, thereby eliminating the connection area 33 of the second connection section 32, thereby reducing the area of ​​the second connection section 32 and the boss 12, thereby reducing the space occupied by the connector 3 and the boss 12, and increasing the clearance of the antenna assembly.

[0077] The first contact 311 and the second contact 321 can be specifically arranged according to actual needs. For example, when the internal space of the electronic device is relatively compact, in order to leave enough clearance to improve the performance of the antenna assembly, a connector including only multiple first contacts 311 can be selected to connect to the circuit board; on the premise that the antenna assembly has enough clearance, a second connecting section 32 and a second contact 321 can be arranged to facilitate the connection between the circuit board 2 and the connector 3, thereby reducing the difficulty of assembling the electronic device, saving time, and improving production efficiency.

[0078] The embodiment of the present application provides an electronic device, wherein the electronic device may include a housing 1, a circuit board 2 and a connector 3, wherein the circuit board 2 may include at least one first elastic sheet 21 and at least one second elastic sheet 22, and the connector 3 may include a first connecting section 31 and a second connecting section 32 connected to each other, wherein the first connecting section 31 is provided with at least one first contact 311, and the second connecting section 32 is provided with at least one second contact 321, the first elastic sheet 21 is used to be electrically connected to the first contact 311, and the second elastic sheet 22 is used to be electrically connected to the second contact 321. The connector 3 is provided with a connecting area 33, and since the first connecting section 31 and the second connecting section 32 are connected to each other, the first connecting section 31 and the second connecting section 32 may be connected to the housing 1 through the same connecting area 33, and thus there is no need to separately provide the connecting area 33 for the first connecting section 31 and the second connecting section 32, and by reducing the area of ​​the connecting area 33 of the entire connector 3, the space occupied by the connector 3 is reduced, and thus the internal structure of the electronic device is optimized, which is conducive to miniaturization and thinness of the electronic device.

[0079] And usually, the antenna assembly of the electronic device is arranged in the shell 1 and is electrically connected to the shell 1. The connector 3 can improve the conductivity of the shell 1, thereby improving the stability of the electrical connection between the circuit board 2 and the antenna assembly. When the electrical signal on the circuit board 2 is transmitted to the antenna assembly through each contact, since each contact is located at the same connector 3, that is, the electrical signal is transmitted to the antenna assembly through the same connector 3, the consistency of the antenna can be improved, and the possibility of the transmission of the electrical signal being affected due to the differences between the connectors 3 when the electrical signal is transmitted through different connectors 3, thereby destroying the consistency of the antenna, is reduced.

[0080] The above description is only the preferred embodiment of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. For those skilled in the art, the present application may have various modifications and variations.
