Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of waterproofing of outdoor electronic equipment, and in particular to a waterproof panel and electronic equipment. Background Art

[0002] With the rise of outdoor activities, various outdoor portable reinforced electronic devices have developed rapidly. Electronic components such as batteries and memory cards that are frequently replaced and require a fast replacement rate require a panel design that is both waterproof and can be quickly opened for replacement. At the same time, the panel components also need a waterproof and anti-falling design to ensure that the electronic components under the waterproof panel are not affected by the humid outdoor environment. The methods commonly used in the industry at present are: overall rubber manufacturing, installation of rubber rings after panel grooving, and direct press-fitting of sealing rings on the panel, etc. However, the above methods all have the problems of poor panel waterproofing effect, low efficiency in disassembly and assembly of electronic components, and inability of waterproof panel components to effectively prevent waterproofing and falling off. Therefore, in order to improve the efficiency of disassembly and replacement of electronic components and enhance the waterproof and anti-falling effect of waterproof panels and panel components, this patent invents a waterproof panel and electronic equipment. Summary of the invention

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a waterproof panel and an electronic device, improve the disassembly and assembly efficiency and waterproof effect of the waterproof panel, ensure that the fastening parts of the waterproof panel are waterproof and prevent from falling off, eliminate the design restrictions of the waterproof panel on the panel shape, and optimize the cover handle design.

[0004] The technical solution of the present invention for solving the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows: a waterproof panel, comprising a panel body, a cover plate, a support block, a fastening mechanism, and a sealing component; an opening surface is provided on the inner side of the panel body, the cover plate and the support block are both installed at the position of the opening surface, a protruding portion perpendicular to the cover plate is provided on the peripheral side wall of the cover plate, an inclined surface is provided on the peripheral side wall of the support block, and the peripheral side walls of the cover plate and the support block are parallel to the opening surface; the sealing component is slidably arranged on the inclined surface of the peripheral side wall of the support block and abuts against the protruding portion of the peripheral side wall of the cover plate; the fastening mechanism connects the cover plate and the support block.

[0005] The beneficial effects of the present invention are: by tightening or loosening the locking component, reducing or increasing the gap between the cover plate and the support block, the sealing component is controlled to enter and exit the opening surface, thereby achieving panel waterproofing and improving the efficiency of disassembly and assembly of the waterproof panel; by tightening the locking component, the fastening sealing ring squeezes the locking component thread, thereby achieving waterproofing and anti-falling of the fastening mechanism.

[0006] Based on the above technical solution, the present invention can also be improved as follows.

[0007] Furthermore, a cover plate handle is installed on the upper surface of the cover plate, and the cover plate handle is configured as an outwardly convex cover plate handle or an inwardly embedded cover plate handle.

[0008] Furthermore, the outwardly protruding cover plate handle is a T-shaped protruding structure, and the T-shaped bottom end of the outwardly protruding cover plate handle is connected to the upper surface of the cover plate; the embedded cover plate handle is an inverted T-shaped groove structure, and the top end of the T-shaped groove of the embedded cover plate handle is embedded and installed in the cover plate.

[0009] The beneficial effect of adopting the above further scheme is: under the same design size of the embedded cover plate handle groove, one handle can be adapted to multiple cover plates, reducing the production cost of the waterproof panel and improving economic benefits; the cover plate handles are symmetrically arranged on the upper surface of the cover plate, which can save labor and increase the appearance of the product.

[0010] Furthermore, the fastening mechanism includes a locking component, a fastening sealing ring, a threaded hole, and a wire screw sleeve. The fastening sealing ring is arranged between the cover plate and the support block, the threaded hole is arranged on the cover plate and the support block, the locking component is a screw type or a butterfly nut type, the locking component connects the cover plate, the fastening sealing ring and the support block, and the wire screw sleeve is fitted with the inner thread of the threaded hole.

Using wire thread sleeves can enhance the surface strength and hardness of the thread, and avoid damage to the thread when the locking part and the thread are screwed together due to the use of soft metals such as aluminum alloys or magnesium alloys.

[0012] Furthermore, a panel outer limiter or a panel inner limiter is provided on the panel body near the opening surface.

[0013] Furthermore, the external limit of the panel is a raised structure obtained by extending the peripheral side walls of the cover plate to the left and right sides, and the external limit of the panel is adapted to the opening surface; the internal limit of the panel is a raised structure obtained by extending the peripheral side walls of the support block to the left and right sides, and the internal limit of the panel is adapted to the opening surface.

[0014] The beneficial effect of adopting the above further solution is: after the cover plate is installed, the upper surface of the panel body is ensured to be flush with the upper surface of the cover plate, thereby improving the flatness and aesthetics of the waterproof panel.

[0015] Furthermore, the panel body is polygonal, circular or elliptical.

[0016] The beneficial effect of adopting the above further scheme is that the panel body and the cover plate are designed to be polygonal, circular, elliptical and other shapes, which enriches the appearance design of the waterproof panel, meets the applicability of the waterproof panel in different scenarios, and meets the user's diversified selection needs.

[0017] In addition, the present invention also provides an electronic device, comprising any one of the waterproof panels described above.

[0018] The beneficial effects of the present invention are: by tightening or loosening the locking component, reducing or increasing the gap between the cover plate and the support block to control the sealing component to enter and exit the opening surface, thereby achieving panel waterproofing and improving the efficiency of disassembly and assembly of the waterproof panel; by tightening the locking component, the fastening sealing ring squeezes the locking component thread, thereby achieving waterproofing and anti-falling of the fastening mechanism. The electronic equipment of the present invention includes electronic products used outdoors such as mobile phones, cameras, and video cameras. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0032] The beneficial effects of adopting the above-mentioned preferred scheme are: under the same design size of the embedded cover plate handle groove, one handle can be adapted to multiple cover plates, reducing the production cost of the waterproof panel and improving economic benefits; the cover plate handles are symmetrically arranged on the upper surface of the cover plate, which can save labor and increase the appearance of the product.

[0033] Preferably, Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, the fastening mechanism 4 includes a locking component 41, a fastening sealing ring 7, a threaded hole 9, and a wire screw sleeve 10. The fastening sealing ring 7 is arranged between the cover plate 5 and the support block 6. The threaded hole 9 is arranged on the cover plate 5 and the support block 6. The locking component 41 is a screw or a butterfly nut, which connects the cover plate 5, the fastening sealing ring 7 and the support block 6. The wire screw sleeve 10 and the internal thread of the threaded hole 9 are in contact.

[0034] The beneficial effects of adopting the above preferred solution are: using butterfly nuts can reduce the dependence on external tools such as screwdrivers, which is suitable for frequent manual locking or loosening of waterproof panels, and can increase the corrosion resistance and durability of locking parts, avoid thread slippage caused by corrosion or using a screwdriver that does not match the screw, and to a certain extent also increase the beauty of the product.

[0043] Through this patented technology, the device panel can be quickly disassembled and waterproof, which facilitates the rapid replacement of modules such as batteries and storage, and has long-term economic benefits.

[0044] Embodiment 1:

[0045] By tightening the locking component 41, the gap between the cover plate 5 and the support block 6 is reduced, the sealing component 8 is squeezed out of the inclined surface on the side wall of the support block 6, and the opening surface 2 is squeezed and tightened by the sealing component 8, so that external moisture cannot enter the electronic equipment part below the cover plate 5 and the support block 6 through the opening surface, thereby achieving waterproofing of the panel; at the same time, by tightening the locking component 41, the fastening sealing ring 7 is squeezed, and the fastening sealing ring 7 further squeezes the thread of the locking component 4 connecting the cover plate 5 and the support block 6, thereby achieving waterproofing and anti-falling of the fastening mechanism 4. By tightening and loosening the locking component 41, the waterproof panel can be quickly disassembled and assembled, thereby improving the efficiency of panel disassembly and assembly.

[0046] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described above, it is to be understood that the above embodiments are exemplary and are not to be construed as limitations of the present invention.
