Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the field of communication equipment technology, specifically relating to a card slot assembly and an electronic device. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of communication equipment technology, to facilitate the operation of electronic devices, most electronic devices currently include a card slot assembly, which consists of a card tray and a card slot. Users insert cards into the internal cavity of the electronic device through the card tray, making it easy to replace cards. These cards can be Subscriber Identification Module (SIM) cards, Trans-flash Cards (TF) cards, etc. The card slot is typically located within the internal cavity of the electronic device, enabling electrical connection between the card and the device. During the assembly process, when the card is inside the electronic device, it is electrically connected to the card slot within the cavity, thereby enabling information transmission and other functions.

[0003] In related technologies, a flexible arm is provided on the card holder to hold the card tray in place when it is inserted into the card holder. However, the ejection mechanism for ejecting the card tray is located near the insertion end of the card tray and is prone to interference with the connection between the flexible arm and the card tray. Therefore, in related technologies, the flexible arm adopts a single-sided fixed structure, with one end fixedly connected to the card holder and the other end suspended and used to engage with the card tray. Since only one end of the flexible arm is fixedly connected to the card holder, it is more prone to deformation, resulting in insufficient holding force and increasing the risk of the card tray falling out of the card holder. Consequently, the safety and reliability of the card holder assembly are poor. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this application is to provide a card holder assembly and electronic device that can solve the problem of poor security and reliability of electronic devices.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this application is implemented as follows:

[0006] A card slot assembly, comprising:

[0007] Card holder, wherein the card holder is provided with a snap-fit ​​portion;

[0008] The card holder includes a mounting base and a card connector arm. The mounting base includes a base plate and a side plate, with the side plate disposed at the edge of the base plate. The card connector arm extends along the direction in which the card holder is inserted into the card holder. The card connector arm includes, in sequence along its extending direction, a first connecting segment, a bent segment, and a second connecting segment connected together. The ends of the first connecting segment and the second connecting segment opposite to the bent segment are both connected to the side plate.

[0009] When the card tray is inserted into the card holder at a preset position, the bent section engages with the card engaging part; the base plate, the side plate, and the card engaging arm form a receiving space;

[0010] An ejection mechanism, a portion of which is located within the receiving space, and another portion of which extends out of the receiving space from the gap between the base plate and the card arm, reaching a position opposite to the insertion end of the card holder.

[0011] This application provides an electronic device including the card slot assembly described above.

[0012] In this embodiment, the card-connecting arm includes a first connecting section, a bent section, and a second connecting section connected together. The ends of both the first and second connecting sections opposite the bent section are connected to a side plate. The card-connecting arm is connected to the side plate of the mounting base. Therefore, there is no connection between the card-connecting arm and the base plate on the side facing the insertion end of the card tray. This ensures that the ejection mechanism extending to the portion opposite the insertion end of the card tray will not interfere with the card-connecting arm and the base. Thus, the card-connecting arm in this application can be fixed at both ends and can be set to a relatively long length. Compared to solutions in related technologies, the card-connecting arm in this application has higher strength, thereby improving the holding force of the card tray on the card holder, reducing the risk of the card tray falling out of the card holder, and thus improving the safety and reliability of the card holder assembly.

Detailed Implementation

[0023] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this application. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0024] The terms "first," "second," etc., used in the specification and claims of this application are used to distinguish similar objects and not to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such use of data can be interchanged where appropriate so that embodiments of this application can be implemented in orders other than those illustrated or described herein. Furthermore, in the specification and claims, "and / or" indicates at least one of the connected objects, and the character " / " generally indicates that the preceding and following objects are in an "or" relationship.

[0025] The card holder assembly and electronic device provided in this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and through specific embodiments and application scenarios.

[0026] Please refer to Figures 1 to 14 This application discloses a card holder assembly, which is applied to an electronic device. The disclosed card holder assembly includes a card holder 200 and a card tray 100.

[0027] Card holder 100 is used to carry cards, which can be Subscriber Identification Module (SIM) cards, Trans-flash Cards (TF) cards, etc.

[0028] Card slot 200 is typically located inside the cavity of an electronic device, enabling electrical connection between the card and the device. When a card is inserted into card slot 200 via card tray 100, the card and card slot 200 are electrically connected, thereby enabling functions such as information transmission.

[0029] Card tray 100 has an insertion end and an exposed end. When card tray 100 is inserted into card holder 200, card tray 100 is inserted into card holder 200 through the insertion end. The exposed end is exposed outside card holder 200 and also outside the electronic device. Typically, card tray 100 can form a large bearing surface in its length and width directions, so the card is carried on the bearing surface formed along the width and length directions. The thickness direction of card tray 100 is perpendicular to the bearing surface formed by the width and thickness directions of card tray 100. Therefore, card tray 100 is inserted into card holder 200 along its length or width direction. Card tray 100 is provided with a latching part 102, which is used to cooperate with card holder 200 when card tray 100 is inserted into card holder 200, thereby fixing card tray 100 in card holder 200. Optionally, latching part 102 can be a groove, notch, or other structure.

[0030] The card holder 200 includes a mounting base 210 and a card connector arm 212. The mounting base 210 is the main component of the card holder 200 and provides a mounting foundation for other components of the card holder 200. Specifically, the card holder 200 has a first side and a second side arranged opposite to each other. The arrangement direction of the first side and the second side is parallel to the arrangement direction of the exposed end and the insertion end. When the card holder 100 is inserted into the card holder 200, the first side corresponds to the exposed end and the second side corresponds to the insertion end.

[0031] The mounting base 210 includes a base plate 211 and a side plate, with the side plate disposed at the edge of the base plate 211. When the card tray 100 is inserted into the card holder 200, the base plate 211 supports the card tray 100 along its thickness direction. The side plate limits the card tray 100 along a direction perpendicular to its thickness.

[0032] The clamping arm 212 extends along the direction in which the clamping tray 100 inserts into the clamping seat 200. The clamping arm 212, along its extension direction, sequentially includes a first connecting segment 2121, a bent segment 2122, and a second connecting segment 2123 connected together. The ends of both the first connecting segment 2121 and the second connecting segment 2123 opposite to the bent segment 2122 are connected to the side plate. At this time, both ends of the clamping arm 212 are fixedly connected to the side plate of the mounting base 210. Optionally, both ends of the clamping arm 212 can be welded or clamped to the side plate of the mounting base 210, or the clamping arm 212 can also be an integral structural component with the side wall. The specific connection method between the side wall and the clamping arm 212 is not limited herein.

[0033] When the card holder 100 is inserted into the preset position of the card holder 200, the bent section 2122 engages with the locking part 102. At this time, the locking part 102 engages with the card holder 200, and the card holder 100 is fixed inside the card holder 200. The base plate 211, the side plate, and the locking arm 212 form a receiving space.

[0034] The ejection mechanism 300 is used to remove the card tray 100 from the card holder 200 when retrieving a card. A portion of the ejection mechanism 300 is located within the receiving space, and another portion extends out of the receiving space from the gap between the base plate 211 and the card receiving arm 212, reaching a position opposite to the insertion end of the card tray 100. Specifically, the portion of the ejection mechanism 300 extending out of the receiving space from the gap between the base plate 211 and the card receiving arm 212 can refer to the portion of the ejection mechanism 300 located near the second side of the card holder 200.

[0035] Optionally, the ejection mechanism 300 may include a push rod 310 and a rotating rod 320. The extension direction of the push rod 310 is parallel to the insertion direction of the card tray 100. The push rod 310 is rotatably connected to the rotating rod 320, and the rotating rod 320 is rotatably connected to the base plate 211. The rotating rod 320 is located on the second side of the card holder 200. When the user removes a card, the user pushes the push rod 310, driving the rotating rod 320 to rotate. The rotating rod 320 abuts against the insertion end of the card tray 100, thereby pushing the card tray 100 out of the card holder 200, thus facilitating the user's card removal operation. At this time, the rotating rod 320 of the ejection mechanism 300 extends out of the receiving space from the gap between the base plate 211 and the card receiving arm 212, and extends to a position opposite to the insertion end of the card tray 100. At least a portion of the push rod 310 of the ejection mechanism 300 is located within the receiving space.

[0036] In the embodiments disclosed in this application, both ends of the card-connecting arm 212 are connected to the side plates of the mounting base 210. Therefore, the card-connecting arm 212 and the base plate 211 have no connection on the side facing the insertion end of the card tray 100. This ensures that the portion of the ejection mechanism 300 extending to the insertion end of the card tray 100 does not interfere with the card-connecting arm 212 and the base plate 211. Therefore, the card-connecting arm 212 in the solution disclosed in this application can be fixed at both ends and can be set to a relatively long length. Compared with the solutions in related technologies, the solution disclosed in this application has higher strength for the card-connecting arm 212, thereby improving the holding force of the card holder 200 on the card tray 100. This reduces the risk of the card tray 100 falling out of the card holder 200, thereby improving the safety and reliability of the card holder assembly.

[0037] In addition, part of the ejection mechanism 300 is located within the receiving space, thereby avoiding interference and collision between the ejection mechanism 300 and other components, thus making it less likely to be damaged.

[0038] In another alternative embodiment, such as Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the side plate may include a first side plate 213 and a second side plate 214. The first side plate 213 extends from one edge of the base plate 211 toward the thickness direction of the base plate 211. The second side plate 214 may be located on the side of the first side plate 213 opposite to the base plate 211, and the second side plate 214 extends from one end of the first side plate 213 toward the inner side of the first side plate 213. A clamping arm 212 may be located between the second side plate 214 and the base plate 211, and the clamping arm 212 may be disposed opposite to the first side plate 213. The ends of the first connecting segment 2121 and the second connecting segment 2123 opposite to the bent segment 2122 may both be connected to the side of the second side plate 214 opposite to the first side plate 213.

[0039] Optionally, the card holder 200 may have a first side, a second side, a third side, and a fourth side arranged sequentially in a circumferential direction, with the arrangement direction of the first and second sides parallel to the arrangement direction of the third and fourth sides. Here, the arrangement direction of the first and second sides can be the length direction of the card holder 200, and the arrangement direction of the third and fourth sides can be the width direction of the card holder 200. The first side plate 213 and the second side plate 214 can be located on the third or fourth side of the card holder 200.

[0040] In this design, the fixed end of the card arm 212 extends from below the ejector mechanism 300 to above it. At this point, the connection between the card arm 212 and the side plate is located above the ejector mechanism 300. This design utilizes the position of the side plate away from the bottom plate 211 to fix the card arm 212, thereby further increasing the length of the card arm 212 and further improving the holding force between the card holder 200 and the card tray 100.

[0041] Furthermore, the base plate 211 and the second side plate 214 are arranged opposite to each other, and the clamping arm 212 is arranged opposite to the first side plate 213. In this configuration, the base plate 211 and the second side plate 214 can protect the lower and upper positions of the ejection mechanism 300, while the clamping arm 212 and the first side plate 213 can protect the left and right sides of the ejection mechanism 300. The accommodating space formed by the base plate 211, the first side plate 213, the second side plate 214, and the clamping arm 212 is a cylindrical structure. This cylindrical structure encloses part of the ejection mechanism 300, further enhancing the protective performance of the accommodating space for the ejection mechanism 300.

[0042] In the above embodiments, two adjacent components among the base plate 211, the first side plate 213, the second side plate 214, and the clamping arm 212 can be connected by welding. Of course, since the base plate 211, the first side plate 213, the second side plate 214, and the clamping arm 212 are bent from the outside of the mounting base 210 to the inside of the mounting base 210 in sequence, the base plate 211, the first side plate 213, the second side plate 214, and the clamping arm 212 can be an integral bending structure. First, the outer contour is stamped out, and then the base plate 211, the first side plate 213, the second side plate 214, and the clamping arm 212 are bent out in sequence.

[0043] In the above embodiment, during the insertion of the card holder 100 into the card slot 200, the side edge of the card holder 100 first abuts against the bent section 2122. As the card holder 100 pushes into the card slot 200, it forces the bent section 2122 to deform towards the side away from the card holder 100, thereby pushing the card holder 100 into the card slot 200. When the card holder 100 is inserted into the preset position of the card slot 200, the bent section 2122 returns to its original shape and engages with the locking part 102. During the pushing of the card holder 100 into the card slot 200, the bent section 2122 is prone to interference with the second side plate 214, resulting in a smaller deformation of the bent section 2122. Therefore, the second side plate 214 provides greater resistance to the card holder 100, making it difficult for the card holder 100 to be inserted into the card slot 200.

[0044] Based on this, in another optional embodiment, the second side plate 214 can form a clearance notch 2141 with the card arm 212, and the bent section 2122 is arranged opposite to the clearance notch 2141. In this solution, there is a large gap between the bent section 2122 and the second side plate 214, so when the card holder 100 is pushed into the card seat 200, the bent section 2122 is less likely to interfere with the second side plate 214 when it deforms, thus reducing the resistance experienced by the card holder 100 and making it easier to insert the card holder 100 into the card seat 200.

[0045] In another alternative embodiment, such as Figures 6 to 10 As shown, the side plate may include a third side plate 215, a fourth side plate 216, and a fifth side plate 217, all of which extend from the edge of the base plate 211 toward the thickness direction of the base plate 211. The third side plate 215 may be located on the side of the base plate 211 opposite to the insertion end of the card holder 100. The third side plate 215 and the fourth side plate 216 may be located on adjacent sides of the base plate 211, and the fourth side plate 216 and the fifth side plate 217 may be located on the same edge of the base plate 211, with the fifth side plate 217 and the fourth side plate 216 being opposite each other. One end of the second connecting segment 2123 away from the bending segment 2122 may be connected to the third side plate 215, and one end of the first connecting segment 2121 away from the bending segment 2122 is connected to the fifth side plate 217. The base plate 211, the connecting arm 212, the fifth side plate 217, and the fourth side plate 216 form a receiving space.

[0046] Optionally, the card holder 200 may have a first side, a second side, a third side, and a fourth side arranged sequentially in a circumferential direction, with the arrangement direction of the first and second sides parallel to the arrangement direction of the third and fourth sides. Here, the arrangement direction of the first and second sides can be the length direction of the card holder 200, and the arrangement direction of the third and fourth sides can be the width direction of the card holder 200. The third side plate 215 may be located on the second side, and the fourth side plate 216 and the fifth side wall may be located on either the third or fourth side. The length direction of the third side plate 215 and the length direction of the fourth side plate 216 may be perpendicular.

[0047] In this design, one end of the card arm 212 near the insertion end of the card holder 100 is fixedly connected to the third side plate 215. There is no connecting structure between the card arm 212 and the base plate 211. Therefore, when part of the ejection mechanism 300 extends out of the gap between the card arm 212 and the base plate 211, interference is less likely to occur. This allows the length of the card arm 212 to be set to be longer, thereby further improving the holding force between the card holder 200 and the card holder 100.

[0048] In addition, the third side plate 215 and the fourth side plate 216 are located on the left and right sides of the ejection mechanism 300, respectively. The accommodating space in this design is an open structure with an opening at the top, which makes it easier to install and disassemble the ejection mechanism 300.

[0049] In the above scheme, the fifth side plate 217 and the first connecting segment 2121 can be connected by welding. In an optional embodiment, the first connecting segment 2121 can be provided with a welding process hole, which can be arranged opposite to the fifth side plate 217. The first connecting segment 2121 and the fifth side plate 217 can be welded through the welding process hole. At this time, the solder can fill into the welding process hole, thereby enabling the first connecting segment 2121 and the fifth side plate 217 to be welded. The weld of this welding method is not easily exposed, thus making it less likely for the weld to form a protruding structure and less likely to interfere with other components of the card holder 200, thereby improving the reliability of the card holder assembly assembly.

[0050] In the above embodiment, the clamping arm 212 can extend from the edge of the third side plate 215 toward the fifth side plate 217. At this time, the clamping arm 212 and the third side plate 215 can be an integral structural component. That is to say, after the clamping arm 212 and the third side plate 215 are stamped to form the outline, they are then bent.

[0051] In another alternative embodiment, one end of the first connecting segment 2121 away from the bent segment 2122 can be bent toward the fifth side plate 217 to form a snap fastener. The fifth side plate 217 has a snap-fit ​​hole, and the snap fastener engages with the snap-fit ​​hole. In this solution, the snap-fit ​​engagement between the connecting arm 212 and the fifth side plate 217 is simpler and easier to manufacture.

[0052] In the above embodiment, the first connecting segment 2121 can be located between the fifth side plate 217 and the fourth side plate 216. When the card holder 100 is inserted into the card seat 200, the card holder 100 will apply pressure to the card relay arm 212, causing the first connecting segment 2121 and the fifth side plate 217 to be pulled to both sides, which may easily cause the card relay arm 212 and the fifth side plate 217 to break.

[0053] In another alternative implementation, the fifth side plate 217 can be located between the first connecting section 2121 and the fourth side plate 216. In this solution, when the card holder 100 is inserted into the card seat 200, the force exerted by the card holder 100 on the card arm 212 can press the first connecting section 2121 tightly onto the fifth side plate 217, thus making the connection structure between the fifth side plate 217 and the first connecting section 2121 more secure, making it less likely for the first connecting section 2121 to separate from the fifth side plate 217. This further improves the connection strength between the first connecting section 2121 and the fifth side plate 217, thereby ensuring the reliability of the connection between the card arm 212 and the mounting base 210.

[0054] In another optional embodiment, the card holder 200 may further include an insertion detection element 220, which can be used to detect whether the card tray 100 is inserted into a preset position of the card holder 200. This prevents the card tray 100 from falling out of the card holder 200 if it is not fully inserted, thus preventing damage to the card tray 100. The preset position here can be understood as the engagement position between the card holder 200 and the card tray 100, that is, the position where the card engaging arm 212 on the card holder 200 and the aforementioned engaging part 102 cooperate with each other. It can also be understood as the limit position of the card tray 100 inserted into the card holder 200, the position where the card tray 100 can no longer move into the card holder 200. There are two situations where the card tray 100 is not inserted into the preset position: one is that part of the card tray 100 is located inside the card holder 200, but not inserted into the preset position; the other is that the card tray 100 is outside the card holder 200.

[0055] In the above embodiments, the insertion detection element 220 can be a photoelectric sensor. When the card tray 100 is inserted into the card holder 200, the light from the photoelectric sensor is blocked, and the photoelectric sensor outputs a signal, thus indicating that the card tray 100 is inserted correctly. When the card tray 100 is not inserted correctly or is not inserted into the card holder 200, the light from the photoelectric sensor is not blocked, and the photoelectric sensor does not output a signal. Of course, the insertion detection element 220 can also be a contact switch, a pressure sensor, or other structures, which are not limited herein.

[0056] In another optional embodiment, the insertion detection element 220 includes an elastic portion 221 and a detection body 222, both of which are connected to the mounting base 210. Specifically, when the card tray 100 is inserted into the card holder 200, the elastic portion 221 faces the limiting beam at the insertion end of the card tray 100, and the elastic portion 221 is pushed by the limiting beam to contact or separate from the detection body 222. Specifically, the detection body 222 includes, but is not limited to, structures such as circuit boards and electronic components. The detection body 222 is used to output the detected signal to the main board of the electronic device. The fixed end of the elastic portion 221 is connected to the mounting base 210, and the free end of the elastic portion 221 can be bent toward the detection body 222 and face it.

[0057] In this design, when the detection body 222 comes into contact with the elastic part 221, the detection body 222 and the elastic part 221 are electrically connected, thus forming a circuit. When the detection body 222 separates from the elastic part 221, the circuit between the detection body 222 and the elastic part 221 is broken. Therefore, by controlling the connection or disconnection between the detection body 222 and the elastic part 221, a current signal is output or not output to determine whether the card holder 100 is inserted into the card slot 200. Thus, the insertion detection element 220 has a simple structure, low cost, and high reliability.

[0058] In one alternative embodiment, when the card tray 100 is not inserted into the preset position of the card holder 200, the elastic part 221 separates from the detection body 222. At this time, the elastic part 221 is disconnected from the detection body 222, and the detection body 222 has no current signal input. Therefore, the detection body 222 outputs a low-level signal, and it is determined that the card tray 100 is not inserted into the card holder 200 or is not inserted into the preset position of the card holder 200.

[0059] When the card tray 100 is inserted into the preset position of the card holder 200, the card tray 100 presses the elastic part 221 so that the detection body 222 comes into contact with the elastic part 221. At this time, the elastic part 221 is connected to the detection body 222, and the detection body 222 receives a current signal input. Therefore, the detection body 222 outputs a high-level signal. At this time, it is determined that the card tray 100 is inserted into the card holder 200 and inserted into the preset position.

[0060] In another alternative embodiment, when the card tray 100 is outside the card holder 200, the elastic part 221 contacts the detection body 222. At this time, the elastic part 221 is connected to the detection body 222, and the detection body 222 receives a current signal input. Therefore, the detection body 222 outputs a high-level signal, at which point it is determined that the card tray 100 is not inserted into the card holder 200 or that the card tray 100 is not inserted into a preset position.

[0061] When the card tray 100 is inserted into the card holder 200, the card tray 100 presses the elastic part 221 to separate the elastic part 221 from the detection body 222. At this time, the elastic part 221 is disconnected from the detection body 222, and the detection body 222 has no current signal input. Therefore, the detection body 222 outputs a low-level signal. At this time, it is determined that the card tray 100 is inserted into the card holder 200 and inserted into the preset position.

[0062] In the above embodiment, since the elastic part 221 abuts against the limiting crossbeam at the insertion end of the card holder 100, the elastic part 221 has a reaction force on the card holder 100 along the insertion direction of the card holder 100, resulting in poor holding force of the card holder 200 relative to the card holder 100.

[0063] Based on this, in another optional embodiment, when the card tray 100 is inserted into the card holder 200 at a preset position, the detection body 222 and the elastic part 221 can contact or separate, the elastic part 221 and the card tray 100 are distributed along the thickness direction of the card tray 100, and the elastic part 221 presses the card tray 100 along the thickness direction of the card tray 100.

[0064] In the embodiments disclosed in this application, when the card tray 100 is inserted into the card holder 200 at a preset position, the elastic part 221 applies a force perpendicular to the card tray 100. That is, the force of the elastic part 221 on the card tray 100 is parallel to the thickness direction of the card tray 100. Therefore, the card tray 100 can be clamped in the card holder 200, thereby increasing the holding force of the card holder 200 on the card tray 100, preventing the card tray 100 from falling out of the card holder 200, and thus improving the safety of the card holder assembly.

[0065] In another alternative embodiment, the insertion end of the card tray 100 may have a receiving recess 103. When the card tray 100 is inserted into a preset position of the card holder 200, at least a portion of the elastic portion 221 is located within the receiving recess 103. Optionally, when the card tray 100 is inserted into the preset position of the card holder 200, the elastic portion 221 abuts against the bottom wall 1031 of the receiving recess 103. In this solution, at least a portion of the elastic portion 221 is hidden within the receiving recess 103, thereby reducing the thickness of the card holder assembly and resulting in a smaller overall thickness of the card holder assembly.

[0066] In another alternative embodiment, a portion of the rotating rod 320 of the ejection mechanism 300 may be located within the receiving recess 103. In this case, the portion of the rotating rod 320 located within the receiving recess 103 may be shortened in the insertion direction of the rotating rod 320 and the card holder 100, thereby reducing the size of the card holder assembly.

[0067] In another alternative embodiment, a first protrusion 110 and a second protrusion 120 may be provided on the bottom wall 1031 of the receiving recess 103. The first protrusion 110 and the second protrusion 120 are distributed along the direction in which the card holder 100 is inserted into the card base 200, and the second protrusion 120 may protrude from the first protrusion 110. When the card holder 100 is inserted into the card base 200 in a preset position, the elastic part 221 abuts against the surface of the first protrusion 110 on the side opposite to the bottom wall 1031.

[0068] In this design, the height of the second protrusion 120 is higher than that of the first protrusion 110. Therefore, when the elastic part 221 abuts against the first protrusion 110, the second protrusion 120 can limit the elastic part 221, thereby further preventing the card holder 100 from detaching from the card holder 200 and further improving the safety of the card holder assembly.

[0069] Furthermore, the surface of the first protrusion 110 facing away from the bottom wall 1031 can be a first surface 111, which can be a plane; the surface of the second protrusion 120 facing away from the bottom wall 1031 can be a second surface 121, which can be an arc-shaped surface. In this design, the arc-shaped surface has a certain guiding effect, thus making it easier for the card tray 100 to be inserted into the card holder 200.

[0070] In another alternative embodiment, the bottom wall 1031 may also be provided with a third protrusion 130, and the second protrusion 120 may be located between the third protrusion 130 and the first protrusion 110. The third protrusion 130 may be provided with a guide slope 131, and the guide slope 131, the second surface 121, and the first surface 111 may be connected in sequence. Along the insertion direction of the card holder 100, the distance between the guide slope 131 and the bottom wall 1031 may gradually decrease. In this solution, the guide slope 131 can further guide the elastic part 221, thus making it easier for the card holder 100 to be inserted into the card seat 200.

[0071] In another alternative embodiment, the base plate 211 and the elastic part 221 can be an integral structural component, thereby facilitating the manufacturing and installation of the card holder assembly and simplifying its structure. Optionally, the base plate 211 and the elastic part 221 are first formed on a substrate using a laser machine or a stamping machine, and then the base plate 211 and the elastic part 221 are formed by bending using a bending machine.

[0072] This application discloses a specific structure of an elastic portion 221. Of course, the elastic portion 221 can also have other structures, which are not limited herein. Specifically, the elastic portion 221 may include a fixed section 2211, a bent protruding section 2212, and a contact section 2213 connected in sequence, with the fixed section 2211 connected to the mounting base. When the card holder 100 is inserted into a preset position, the bent protruding section 2212 abuts against the card holder 100, causing the contact section 2213 to separate from the detection body 222. When the card holder 100 is not inserted into the preset position, the contact section 2213 abuts against the detection body 222. In this design, the bent protruding section 2212 protrudes relative to the fixed section 2211 and the contact section 2213, therefore, when the elastic portion 221 abuts against the card holder 100, the force applied to the card holder 100 is greater, resulting in a better holding effect. In addition, the bent protruding section 2212 protrudes relative to the fixed section 2211 and the contact section 2213. When the bent protruding section 2212 abuts against the card holder 100, the fixed section 2211 and the contact section 2213 are less likely to interfere with the card holder 100.

[0073] Based on the card slot assembly disclosed in the embodiments of this application, the embodiments of this application also disclose an electronic device, which includes the card slot assembly described in any of the embodiments above.

[0074] The electronic devices disclosed in this application can be smartphones, tablets, e-book readers, wearable devices (such as smartwatches), video game consoles, etc. This application does not limit the specific types of electronic devices.

The specific embodiments described above are merely illustrative and not restrictive. Those skilled in the art can make many other forms under the guidance of this application without departing from the spirit and scope of the claims, and all of these forms are within the protection scope of this application.
