[0047] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to be used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0048] The disclosure below provides many different embodiments or examples to implement different structures of the present invention. In order to simplify the disclosure of the present invention, the parts and settings of specific examples are described below. Of course, they are only examples, and the purpose is not to limit the present invention. In addition, the present invention can repeat reference numbers and / or letters in different examples. This repetition is for the purpose of simplicity and clarity, and does not itself indicate the relationship between the various embodiments and / or settings discussed. In addition, the present invention provides various specific processes and examples of materials, but those of ordinary skill in the art can be aware of the applicability of other processes and / or the use of other materials.

[0049] Hereinafter, an electronic device 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0050] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the electronic device 100 may include: a housing 1, a sliding bracket 2, a functional module 3 and a driving device 4. The housing 1 has an avoidance hole 11, the housing 1 has a first guide structure 12, and the sliding bracket 2 is arranged in the housing 1. Figure 3-Figure 5The second guide structure 21 on the sliding bracket 2 is guided and matched with the first guide structure 12 to limit the sliding bracket 2 from moving back and forth along a straight line between the first position and the second position relative to the housing 1, that is, the sliding bracket 2 can be limited to slide along a straight line track through the guiding cooperation between the first guide structure 12 and the second guide structure 21. It should be noted that the connection relationship between the first guide structure 12 and the housing 1 is not limited, as long as they are relatively stationary. For example, the first guide structure 12 can be integrally formed with the housing 1 and is a part of the housing 1. For another example, the first guide structure 12 can also be a separate part from the housing 1 and directly or indirectly assembled to the housing 1, etc., which will not be elaborated here.

[0051] like Figure 1-Figure 5 As shown, the driving device 4 is disposed in the housing 1 and drives the sliding bracket 2 to translate between the first position and the second position. The functional module 3 is mounted on the sliding bracket 2 and is suitable for entering and exiting the housing 1 through the avoidance hole 11. Figure 3 As shown, when the sliding bracket 2 moves to the first position, the functional module 3 is in a use position at least partially moved out of the housing 1, such as Figure 1 As shown, when the sliding bracket 2 moves to the second position, the functional module 3 moves back to the storage position in the housing 1. In this way, the driving device 4 can drive the sliding bracket 2 to move the functional module 3 between the storage position and the use position.

[0052] It should be noted that the functions of the functional module 3 are not limited, for example, it can have image acquisition function, voice interaction function, light-emitting function, etc. For example, it can be equipped with a camera to realize intelligent recognition of scenes, somatosensory games, video chats, large-screen photography, sight distance detection reminders, automatic shutdown when no one is around, intelligent brightness adjustment, precise gesture operation, and better human-computer interaction functions. To simplify the description, the functional module 3 is described as a camera module equipped with at least a camera. When the functional module 3 is a camera module and can move between the storage position and the use position, when the functional module 3 is in the use position, the functional module 3 exposed outside the housing 1 can be used to realize image acquisition and other functions. When the functional module 3 is in the storage position, the functional module 3 can be stored, and at the same time, the functional module 3 can be prevented from being maliciously opened to protect user privacy.

[0053] Therefore, according to the electronic device 100 of the embodiment of the present invention, by setting a sliding bracket 2, connecting the driving device 4 and the functional module 3, and by setting a second guide structure 21 on the sliding bracket 2, which cooperates with the first guide structure 12 in the shell, the movement stability of the functional module 3 can be effectively improved. Compared with the technical solution of using the driving device 4 to directly drive the functional module 3, the functional module 3 can be more effectively kept stable, without jamming or shaking during the movement, and the movement accuracy of the functional module 3 can be improved, thereby reducing the gap between the avoidance hole 11 and the functional module 3, reducing the problems of dust and water entering from the gap, and improving the reliability of the electronic device 100. For example, the gap can be reduced to about 0.1 mm, thereby better reducing the problems of dust and water entering from the gap.

[0054] It should be noted that the specific type of the electronic device 100 is not limited, for example, it can be a television, a computer, a mobile phone, etc., which is not limited here. Moreover, according to the different types of the electronic device 100, the position of the avoidance hole 11 on the housing 1 and the movement direction of the functional module 3 can be specifically set, which are not limited here.

[0055] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the first guide structure 12 includes a guide rail groove 121, and the second guide structure 21 includes a guide block 211. The guide block 211 is matched in the guide rail groove 121, and the guide rail groove 121 limits the guide block 211 along the length extension direction of the guide rail groove 121 (such as Figure 6 In this way, the sliding bracket 2 can be simply and effectively restricted from sliding back and forth along a straight line in the housing 1, and the first guide structure 12 and the second guide structure 21 have simple structures, which are easy to process and assemble. Moreover, since the second guide structure 21 includes the guide block 211, the structural strength and structural reliability of the sliding bracket 2 can be improved. Of course, the present invention is not limited to this. In other embodiments of the present invention, the positions of the guide groove 121 and the guide block 211 can also be interchanged, which will not be described in detail here.

[0056] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the groove walls on both sides of the width of the guide groove 121 are guide surfaces 122, and the side surface of the guide block 211 facing the guide surface 122 has a longitudinal extension direction along the guide groove 121 (such as Figure 6The guide block 211 is provided with a plurality of first protrusions 213 spaced apart from each other (in the F1 direction shown in FIG), and the guide block 211 is slidably matched with the guide surface 122 through the plurality of first protrusions 213. In this way, the contact area between the guide block 211 and the guide rail groove 121 can be reduced, the friction and noise between the guide block 211 and the guide rail groove 121 can be reduced, the sliding smoothness of the sliding bracket 2 can be improved, and the driving energy consumption and heat generation of the driving device 4 can be reduced. In addition, the machining accuracy of the guide block 211 and the guide surface 122 can be reduced, and the machining cost can be reduced. Moreover, compared with the arrangement of other friction-reducing parts on the guide block 211, the arrangement of the first protrusions 213 on the guide block 211 has a simpler structure and is easier to process.

[0057] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the first guide structure 12 includes two guide rails 123, and a guide rail groove 121 is defined between the two guide rails 123. The sliding bracket 2 has a plurality of second protrusions 214 protruding in the direction of the guide rail 123. Figure 6 In the F2 direction shown in FIG, the second protrusions 214 are located on both sides of the guide groove 121, and in the depth direction of the guide groove 121 (as shown in FIG. Figure 6 In the direction perpendicular to the paper surface), the second protrusion 214 is supported on the guide bar 123 to slide with the guide bar 123. Thus, the guide bar 123 can be used to support the sliding bracket 2 in the depth direction of the guide groove 121, simplifying the overall structure, and by providing the second protrusion 214, the support contact area between the sliding bracket 2 and the guide bar 123 can be reduced, the friction and noise between the sliding bracket 2 and the guide bar 123 can be reduced, the sliding smoothness of the sliding bracket 2 can be improved, and the driving energy consumption and heat generation of the driving device 4 can be reduced. In addition, the processing accuracy of the sliding bracket 2 and the guide bar 123 can be reduced, and the processing cost can be reduced. Moreover, compared with providing other friction-reducing parts on the guide block 211, the second protrusion 214 is provided on the guide block 211, and the structure is simpler and easier to process.

[0058] Alternatively, if Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, each guide rail 123 is aligned with the guide rail groove 121 along the length extension direction (eg Figure 6 The plurality of second protrusions 214 spaced apart and arranged in the F1 direction shown in the figure slide in cooperation. Thus, the support cooperation stability between the guide rail 123 and the second protrusions 214 can be improved, and the movement stability of the sliding bracket 2 can be improved.

[0059] In addition, in order to further reduce the sliding friction between the guide block 211 and the first guide structure 12, some self-lubricating materials can be used to process the sliding bracket 2, such as polyoxymethylene resin materials, etc., to improve the sliding smoothness. In addition, in some other embodiments, rollers, bearings and other parts can also be set on the side of the guide block 211 to cooperate with the guide surface 122, the guide rail 123 and other sliding frictions to reduce friction, which will not be repeated here.

[0060] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the guide block 211 includes two guide ribs 212, and the two guide ribs 212 are arranged along the width direction of the guide groove 121 (such as Figure 6 The two guide ribs 212 are arranged to be spaced apart from each other in the F2 direction shown in the figure, and the two guide ribs 212 are respectively guided and matched with the groove walls on both sides of the width of the guide groove 121. In this way, the weight of the sliding bracket 2 can be reduced, and the driving energy consumption of the driving device 4 to drive the sliding bracket 2 to move can be reduced. Optionally, as Figure 5 As shown, each guide rib 212 has a plurality of grooves or perforations spaced apart along the length direction of the guide rail groove 121. Thus, the weight and driving energy consumption of the sliding bracket 2 can be further reduced while ensuring the structural reliability of the sliding bracket 2.

[0061] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 4 and Figure 7 As shown, the electronic device 100 may further include: a stopper 5, the stopper 5 is arranged on the sliding bracket 2, and a stopper structure 13 is provided in the housing 1. When the sliding bracket 2 moves to the first position, the stopper 5 moves to the stopper structure 13 and cooperates with the stopper structure 13 in a stopper position. When the sliding bracket 2 moves to the second position, the stopper 5 separates from the stopper structure 13 to be out of the stopper position. Thus, through the stopper 5 and the stopper structure 13, the functional module 3 can be relatively stably kept in the use position to work, thereby improving the working stability of the functional module 3, and can play a role in anti-shake shooting, thereby improving the image acquisition quality.

[0062] It should be noted that the function of the functional module 3 according to the embodiment of the present invention is not limited to image acquisition. For example, it may also have other functional elements, such as voice playback elements, light-emitting elements, etc., which are not described in detail here. When the functional module 3 is capable of playing sound, the cooperation between the limiting member 5 and the limiting structure 13 can avoid the vibration during the sound playback that causes the jitter problem of the functional module 3. In addition, it should be noted that the connection relationship between the limiting structure 13 and the housing 1 is not limited, as long as they are relatively static. For example, the limiting structure 13 can be integrally formed with the housing 1 and is a part of the housing 1. For another example, the limiting structure 13 can also be a separate part from the housing 1 and directly or indirectly assembled to the housing 1, etc., which are not described in detail here.

[0063] Alternatively, if Figure 4 and Figure 7 As shown, the direction in which the sliding bracket 2 moves from the second position to the first position is the extension direction (as shown in FIG. Figure 7 The limiting structure 13 is formed in the direction opposite to the extension direction (as shown in F3 direction). Figure 7 The limiting sleeve is opened in the F4 direction as shown in the figure, and the limiting member 5 is suitable for extending in the extension direction (as shown in the figure). Figure 7 The limit member 5 is inserted into the limit sleeve from the open side of the limit sleeve, and the limit member 5 can be elastically compressed in the radial direction of the limit sleeve to have an interference fit with the limit sleeve. As a result, the limit member 5 is easy to cooperate with the limit structure 13, and can achieve automatic limit fit and disengagement with the translation of the sliding bracket 2. The limit member 5 has good limit stability by utilizing the elastic compression deformation. In addition, the limit member 5 that can be elastically compressed and deformed can absorb some assembly tolerances and changes in part size. It should be noted that the material of the limit member 5 is not limited, and it can achieve elastic compression deformation positioning. For example, it can be made of silicone material, rubber material, etc.

[0064] It should be noted that the connection method between the sliding bracket 2 and the limiting member 5 is not limited, for example Figure 4 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the sliding bracket 2 may include a Figure 7 The extension portion 22 extends in the F3 direction shown in FIG. 1 , and the extension end of the extension portion 22 (i.e., the end close to the limiting sleeve in the second position) has a stop portion 23 (such as Figure 7 The limiter 5 is sleeved on the extension part 22 and is stopped by the stopper 23. As a result, the structure of the sliding bracket 2 is simple and easy to process, and a quick connection with the limiter 5 can be achieved, and the connection reliability is high. In addition, in order to facilitate the installation of the limiter 5 and the sliding bracket 2, a first guide surface 51 can be provided at the end of the sleeve hole of the limiter 5. In addition, in order to facilitate the insertion of the limiter 5 and the limiting structure 13, a second guide surface 52 can be provided at the end of the limiter 5, etc., which will not be described here.

[0065] In some embodiments of the present invention, Fig. 9 and Fig.10As shown, the functional module 3 may include: a module body 31 and a mounting shell 32, the module body 31 is mounted on the mounting shell 32, the mounting shell 32 has a first positioning structure 33, the sliding bracket 2 has a second positioning structure 24, and the first positioning structure 33 is positioned and matched with the second positioning structure 24. Thus, the assembly efficiency and assembly accuracy of the functional module 3 and the sliding bracket 2 can be improved, so that the functional module 3 can slide back and forth more stably in the set space, thereby better reducing the gap between the avoidance hole 11 and the functional module 3, reducing the problems of dust and water entering from the gap, and improving the reliability of the electronic device 100.

[0066] Alternatively, if Fig. 9 and Fig.10 As shown, the first positioning structure 33 includes a positioning column 331, and the second positioning structure 24 includes a positioning seat 241. The positioning seat 241 defines a positioning blind hole 242. The positioning column 331 is formed with a first connecting hole 332. Figure 4 The second connection hole 244 is formed on the positioning seat 241, the positioning column 331 is positioned and matched with the positioning blind hole 242, and the first connection hole 332 is opposite to the second connection hole 244 and connected by the fastener 6. In this way, the positioning, matching and fastening connection between the functional module 3 and the sliding bracket 2 can be simply and quickly achieved. Among them, the type of the fastener 6 is not limited, for example, it can be a screw, a pin, a bolt, etc.

[0067] Optionally, a plurality of ribs 243 spaced apart along the circumferential direction may be provided on the inner wall of the positioning blind hole 242 to guide and support the assembly of the positioning column 331 , thereby improving the smoothness of the positioning cooperation between the positioning column 331 and the positioning seat 241 and reducing the machining accuracy of the positioning blind hole 242 and the positioning column 331 .

[0068] Alternatively, if Figure 4 , Fig. 9 and Fig.10 As shown, the sliding bracket 2 includes a first supporting surface 25, the mounting shell 32 includes a second supporting surface 34 supported on the first supporting surface 25, the first positioning structure 33 includes an avoidance groove 333 recessed by the second supporting surface 34, the side of the avoidance groove 333 facing the first supporting surface 25 is a groove top and is open, the positioning column 331 is arranged on the bottom wall of the avoidance groove 333, and the positioning seat 241 is arranged on the first supporting surface 25 and located in the avoidance groove 333. As a result, the matching structure is more compact, the matching stability is better, and the connection reliability is higher.

[0069] Optionally, the first positioning mechanism includes two positioning columns 331 arranged in the avoidance groove 333, and the second positioning structure 24 includes two positioning seats 241. The two positioning columns 331 are plugged into the two positioning seats 241 one by one, and each positioning column 331 and the positioning seat 241 are connected by a screw, so that the module body 31 and the mounting shell 32 can be quickly and accurately connected, thereby improving the stability of the moving trajectory of the functional module 3 and reducing the trajectory deviation of the moving functional module 3.

[0070] In some embodiments of the present invention, Fig.11 As shown, the driving device 4 may include: a driving motor 41, a transmission mechanism 42, a guide mechanism 43 and a driving member 44. The driving motor 41 drives the driving member 44 through the transmission mechanism 42 to drive the sliding bracket 2 to translate, and the guide mechanism 43 limits the driving member 44 to translate back and forth along a straight line. Therefore, by setting the guide mechanism 43, the driving device 4 can further improve the motion stability and motion trajectory accuracy of the functional module 3.

[0071] Alternatively, if Fig.11 As shown, the transmission mechanism 42 may include a lead screw, and the guide mechanism 43 may include two guide rods 431. The axial direction of the lead screw is arranged parallel to the axial direction of the guide rods 431, and the lead screw is located between the two guide rods 431. The driving member 44 is sleeved on the lead screw and the two guide rods 431, and reciprocates along the axial direction of the lead screw. Therefore, the arrangement of the transmission mechanism 42 and the guide mechanism 43 occupies a small space, and the guide mechanism 43 can effectively guide the driving member 44 from both sides of the lead screw, thereby effectively improving the movement stability of the driving member 44. Optionally, the transmission mechanism 42 may include a ball matched with the lead screw, the ball is fixed to the driving member 44 and sleeved on the lead screw, and during the rotation of the lead screw, the ball can be driven to drive the driving member 44 to move along the axial direction of the lead screw, that is, the rotary motion of the lead screw is converted into the linear motion of the driving member 44 driven by the ball.

[0072] Alternatively, if Fig.11 As shown, the drive motor 41 may be a stepping motor, thereby making it easier to achieve precise drive control. Fig.11 As shown, the driving device 4 may further include a transmission 45 connected between the transmission mechanism 42 and the driving motor 41, thereby making it easier to achieve precise drive control. For example, the transmission 45 may be a gear reducer, etc. In addition, by using a stepper motor to input a waveform signal frequency, it is possible to more effectively achieve precise control of the motion position and motion speed of the functional module 3, and ensure lifting stability through the double guide rods, the gear reducer and the lead screw.
