Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to an electronic display device, and in particular to an electronic display device with a storage box. Background Art

[0002] With the development of technology, electronic products bring people more and more rich user experience. Nowadays, touch screens have appeared, which allow people to operate more intuitively and enhance the visual effect when using. On general touch screens, electronic whiteboards or large touch displays, if there is a stylus, it is convenient to write or mark key points directly on the screen. However, for the stylus that is matched with the display, it may be difficult to store, inconvenient to carry, or it may be lost. In view of this, how to provide a storage design that is more intuitive to use, saves space, is easy to carry and use, and can effectively prevent the stylus from being lost is an important issue. Summary of the invention

[0003] According to some embodiments, an electronic display device is provided, comprising a body, a rear shell and a storage box. The body has a display side and a rear side, the rear side is opposite to the display side, and the display side is used to display a picture. The rear shell is connected to the body and is located at the rear side of the body. The storage box is arranged on the rear shell and has a storage space for accommodating a stylus pen, and can be switched between an open position and a closed position. When the storage box is switched from the closed position to the open position, the rear shell exposes the storage space, so that the stylus pen arranged in the storage space can be taken out.

[0004] In some embodiments, when the receiving box is switched from the closed position to the open position, the receiving box rotates relative to the rear housing.

[0005] In some embodiments, the container box further comprises: a base and a cover. The base and the rear shell are fixed to each other. The cover is connected to and disposed on the base and can rotate relative to the base; wherein, when the container box is switched from the closed position to the open position, the cover protrudes from the rear shell.

[0006] In some embodiments, the storage box further has a rotating shaft extending along a connection direction and pivotally connecting the cover plate and the base. When the storage box is switched from the closed position to the open position, the cover plate rotates around the rotating shaft.

[0007] In some embodiments, the long axis direction of the cover plate is different from the connection direction in which the rotating shaft extends.

[0008] In some embodiments, the cover plate defines a first section and a second section through the rotating shaft, which are respectively located on a first side and a second side of the rotating shaft, and the first side is opposite to the second side. When a force is applied to the second section of the cover plate to move the second section in a first direction, the second section moves in a second direction, wherein the second direction is opposite to the first direction.

[0009] In some embodiments, the receiving box is located at a side edge of the rear shell, and when the receiving box is switched from a closed position to an open position, the receiving box protrudes from the side edge of the rear shell.

[0010] In some embodiments, the outer surface of the cover plate has a recessed portion that is recessed toward the accommodation space of the accommodation box. When the stylus pen is placed in the accommodation space, the recessed portion abuts against the stylus pen.

[0011] In some embodiments, the base has a first engaging structure located on the top side of the base and away from the rotating shaft, and the cover has a second engaging structure that matches the first engaging structure. When the container is in the open position, the first engaging structure and the second engaging structure are separated from each other. When the container is switched from the open position to the closed position, the second engaging structure engages with the first engaging structure.

[0012] In some embodiments, the storage box further has an elastic element disposed at the bottom side of the storage space of the storage box. When the storage box receives the stylus and switches from a closed position to an open position, the elastic element releases elastic potential energy to the stylus, so that the stylus protrudes out of the storage box.

[0052] Other applicable scopes of the device of the present invention will be apparent from the detailed description provided below. It should be understood that the following detailed description and specific embodiments, when providing exemplary embodiments of the carrier assembly, are only for illustrative purposes and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0053] Unless otherwise defined, all terms (including technical and scientific terms) used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this disclosure belongs. It is understood that these terms, such as those defined in commonly used dictionaries, should be interpreted as having a meaning consistent with the background or context of the relevant technology and the present invention, and should not be interpreted in an idealized or overly formal manner unless specifically defined herein.

[0054] Additionally, spatially relative terms, such as "below," "beneath," "below," "above," "upper," and the like, are used herein for convenience in describing the relationship of one element or feature relative to other elements or features as illustrated in the figures. The device may be otherwise oriented (rotated 90 degrees or at other orientations) and the spatially relative descriptors used herein interpreted accordingly.

[0055] See also Figure 1 , which is a schematic diagram of an electronic display device 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention. The aforementioned electronic display device 100 may be a touch-type electronic display, or an AIO (All-in-One) computer with a touch screen, which includes a main body 10, a rear shell 20, and a storage box 30. The main body 10 has a display side 10S1 and an opposite rear side 10S2. On the display side 10S1, it has a display surface 101, which can be used to display images and provide user touch operations; and on the rear side 10S2, the aforementioned rear shell 20 is connected. In other words, the rear shell 20 is located behind the main body 10 and opposite to the display surface 101.

[0056] The body 10 and the rear shell 20 match each other to form an accommodating space, which can load the electronic components of the electronic display device 100 (or, the electronic components can also be regarded as part of the body 10), such as a computing unit, a storage unit, a storage element, a display module and a battery module.

[0057] See also Figure 2The storage box 30 of the electronic display device 100 is disposed on the rear shell 20, and can be used to store or accommodate a stylus PN. The stylus PN can correspond to the display surface 101, and the user can use the stylus PN to perform touch operations on the display surface 101. In this embodiment, the storage box 30 is located at the lateral side of the rear shell 20 and is located in the X-axis direction, but is not limited thereto. In other embodiments, the storage box 30 can be located at other lateral positions of the rear shell 20, such as the top side or bottom side (on the Z-axis) of the rear shell.

[0058] See also Figure 1-2 , the aforementioned receiving box 30 can be switched between an open position and a closed position. Figure 1 As shown, the receiving box 30 is in the closed position, and Figure 2 The storage box 30 is displayed in the open position. In the open position, the user can easily take out the stylus pen PN set in the storage box 30. By providing the storage box 30, the user can easily store and take out the stylus pen PN. In this way, the stylus pen PN does not need to be carried or stored elsewhere, which greatly improves the convenience of use. The structure and operation of the storage box 30 for storing the stylus pen PN will be described in detail below.

[0059] See also Figure 3 , which shows an exploded schematic diagram of the rear housing 20, the storage box 30, and the stylus pen PN. The storage box 30 includes a base 301, a cover plate 302, and a shaft 303. The base 301 and the cover plate 302 match each other, and the shaft 303 connects the two to make them connected. The base 301 and the cover plate 302 form a storage space SP for accommodating the stylus pen PN.

[0060] The aforementioned base 301 is fixed on the rear shell 20. In detail, the base 301 includes a base body 3011 and fixing parts 3012 and 3013, and the fixing parts 3012 and 3013 are located on both sides of the base body 3011. A plurality of fasteners W (such as screws) are passed through the through holes of the fixing parts 3012 and 3013 to fix to the front side 201 (opposite to the rear side 202 of the rear shell 20) of the rear shell 20, so that the base 301 can be stably fixed to the rear shell 20. In other embodiments, the fixing parts 3012 and 3013 can be designed to be fixed to the rear side 202 of the rear shell 20. Figure 3 In the implementation, since the locking member W is disposed on the front side 201 of the housing 20, that is, inside the electronic display device 100, the locking member W and the perforations of the fixing portions 3012 and 3013 are not visible in the overall visual appearance, so that the electronic display device 100 can maintain its appearance.

[0061] The aforementioned cover plate 302 is connected and disposed on the base 301. Specifically, the cover plate 302 has a pivoting portion 3021 extending toward the center direction (-X axis direction) of the rear housing 20, and the aforementioned rotating shaft 303 passes through the pivoting portion 3021 along a connection direction DC (Y axis) to a pivot sleeve 3014 of the base 301, so that the cover plate 302 is movably connected and pivoted to the base 301, so that the cover plate 302 can be moved and rotated relative to the base 301. In some embodiments, the rotating shaft 303 can be positioned in the pivot sleeve 3014 by a locking member W. In some embodiments, when in the closed position, the long axis direction of the cover plate 302 extends in the direction (or third direction) D3 or Z axis, and is different from the connection direction DC extended by the rotating shaft 303. In some embodiments, the long axis direction of the cover plate 302 is perpendicular to the connection direction DC.

[0062] In addition, the cover 302 can be defined into two left and right sections through the rotation shaft 303 or the pivoting portion 3021 : a first section J1 and a second section J2 , which are respectively located at opposite sides (the first side and the second side) of the rotation shaft 303 or the pivoting portion 3021 .

[0063] See also Figure 4 , which shows a schematic diagram of the container box 30 in an open state (corresponding to Figure 2 When a force is applied to the second section J2 of the cover 302 along the first direction D1, the second section J2 moves toward the first direction D1 to the groove G of the base 301 (or the base body 3011) and rotates along the direction R1. At this time, the first section J1 on the other side moves toward the second direction D2 and rotates along the direction R1, that is, the cover 302 rotates around the rotation axis 303 with the rotation axis 303 as the center. In this way, the container box 30 can be moved from the closed position ( Figure 1 ) to the open position ( Figure 1 , Figure 4 ), which rotates relative to the rear shell 20 and protrudes from the rear shell 20, or in other words, the cover plate 302 rotates and protrudes from the rear shell 20, so that the stylus pen PN disposed in the accommodating space SP is exposed, and the stylus pen PN can be easily taken out.

[0064] Similarly, when the user takes out the stylus pen PN and wants to restore the storage box 30 to the closed position, or puts the stylus pen PN back into the storage box 30 after using it and wants to close the storage box 30, a force can be applied to the first section J1 of the cover 302, just like applying a force in the first direction D1 to the first section J1, so that the cover 302 will rotate relative to the base 301 and the housing 20, allowing the storage box 30 to return to the closed position.

[0065] It is worth noting that see Figure 5The base 301 has a first engaging structure E1, and the cover has a second engaging structure E2, which match each other. When the storage box 30 is in the open position, the second engaging structure E2 is separated from the first engaging structure E1. When the storage box 30 switches from the open position to the closed position, the second engaging structure E2 will engage with the first engaging structure E1. In this way, it can ensure that the storage box 30 is in the closed position and is not easily switched to the open position due to vibration, shaking or other conditions. It can also prevent the stylus PN from being separated when it is inside the storage box 30.

[0066] In this embodiment, the first engaging structure E1 has a protruding structure, and the second engaging structure E2 has a penetrating structure. In some embodiments, the first engaging structure E1 is located on the top side of the base 301 and away from the rotating shaft 303, and the second engaging structure E2 matches the first engaging structure E1 and is correspondingly arranged on the top side of the cover plate 302 and away from the rotating shaft 303. In some embodiments, when viewed from the long axis direction (or Z axis) of the cover plate 302, the cover plate 302 presents a C-shaped structure.

[0067] A convex portion M is also formed on the outer surface of the cover plate 302, which is located at the second section J2 of the cover plate. The convex portion M can be used as a guide to guide the user's finger to apply a force to the second section J2 here, such as Figure 4 The force is applied in the direction D1 to rotate the cover plate 302 .

[0068] Figure 6-7 A schematic diagram showing another embodiment of the present invention in which a container box 30' is disposed on the rear housing 20. The container box 30' of this embodiment is different from the container box 30 ( Figure 3 ), the housing box 30' further includes an elastic element ST. The other elements are the same or correspond to Figure 3 The same reference numerals are used for the embodiments of the present invention.

[0069] The elastic element ST is disposed in the receiving space SP of the receiving box 30'. In some embodiments, the elastic element ST may be a compression spring disposed at the bottom of the receiving space SP and abutting against the side wall of the base 301. Figure 6 As shown, the receiving box 30 ′ is in a closed position, and a stylus pen PN is loaded in the receiving space SP, one side of the stylus pen PN abuts against the side wall of the base 301 , and the other side presses the elastic element ST.

[0070] like Figure 6-7As shown, when the storage box 30' is switched from the closed position to the open position, since one side of the stylus pen PN is no longer limited by the side wall of the base 301, the elastic element ST located on the other side of the stylus pen PN can release elastic potential energy to the stylus pen PN, so that the stylus pen PN is ejected and moved due to the elastic restoring force of the elastic element ST. At this time, the stylus pen PN protrudes from the storage box 30', so that the user can easily take out the stylus pen PN.

[0071] On the contrary, when the stylus pen PN is to be stored, it is pushed in the direction of the elastic element ST to squeeze the elastic element ST, and then the cover plate 302 of the storage box 30' is rotated to return the storage box 30' to the closed position. At this time, the elastic element ST also returns to the compressed state and stores elastic potential energy, which is released when it is opened next time to facilitate the removal of the stylus pen ST.

[0072] It is worth noting that see Figure 6 The outer surface of the base 301 is formed with a recessed portion RC, which is recessed toward the accommodation space SP. When the accommodation box 30' (or the accommodation box 30) is in the closed position and the stylus pen PN is disposed in the accommodation space SP, the recessed portion RC abuts against the stylus pen PN, thereby limiting the stylus pen PN and allowing the stylus pen PN to be stably accommodated in the accommodation space SP.

[0073] One embodiment of the present invention provides an electronic display device, comprising a main body, a rear shell and a storage box. The main body has a display side and a rear side, the rear side is opposite to the display side, and the display side is used to display a picture. The rear shell is connected to the main body and is located at the rear side of the main body. The storage box is arranged on the rear shell and has a storage space for accommodating a stylus pen, and can be switched between an open position and a closed position. When the storage box is switched from the closed position to the open position, the rear shell exposes the storage space, so that the stylus pen arranged in the storage space can be taken out.

[0074] The embodiments of the present invention have at least one of the following advantages or effects: by providing a storage box for storing a stylus on an electronic display device, the user can conveniently carry the stylus, so that the stylus does not need to be carried or stored elsewhere. In addition, when the stylus is needed, no opening tool is needed, and the cover of the storage box can be directly pushed with a finger, and the cover can be rotated to protrude from the side of the rear cover, so that the stylus can be conveniently taken out, thereby improving the convenience of using the electronic display device and providing a better user experience.

[0075] In the present specification and claims, ordinal numbers, such as “first”, “second”, etc., have no sequential relationship with each other, and are only used to distinguish two different components with the same name.

[0076] The above embodiments are described in sufficient detail so that a person having ordinary knowledge in the art can implement the device disclosed in the present invention through the above description, and it must be understood that slight changes and modifications can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
