[0055] It should be understood that although the terms "first", "second", "third" and the like can be used herein to describe various elements, these elements should not be limited by these terms. These terms are generally used to distinguish one element from another. In addition, the term "or" as used herein should be interpreted as possibly including any one of the associated listed items, or any combination of two or more of the associated listed items.

[0056] [Embodiment One]

[0057] Referring to FIG. 1, which is an embodiment one of the present application. As shown in FIG. 1, the electronic device 100 includes a housing 110, a display 120, a first unlocking portion 130, a second unlocking portion 140, a first cable connector 150, a second cable connector 160, a first transmission line 170, a second transmission line 180, a first operation distance Do, and a second operation distance Dl. Figures 1 to 7 Figure 1 ​As shown, this embodiment discloses an electronic device 100, which is, for example, an antenna device, but the present invention is not limited thereto. The electronic device 100 includes a device body 1 and two unlockable outer covers 2 detachably mounted to the device body 1. For ease of explanation, only one unlockable outer cover 2 and its associated device body 1 are described in the following description, but the present invention is not limited thereto; that is, the number of unlockable outer covers 2 can be at least one.

[0058] It should be noted that although the unlockable outer cover 2 is described in this embodiment as being used in conjunction with the device body 1, the present invention is not limited thereto. For example, in other embodiments not illustrated in this invention, the unlockable outer cover 2 can be used independently (e.g., for sale) or in conjunction with other components. The structures of the device body 1 and the unlockable outer cover 2 will be described first, and then the connection relationship between the two will be explained as appropriate.

[0059] like Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the device body 1 includes a housing 11, a body 12 disposed within the housing 11, and a connector 13 mounted on the body 12. The housing 11 surrounds and forms an accommodating space 111, and has an opening 112 communicating with the accommodating space 111. The body 12 is an electronic component that enables the operation of the device body 1; for example, the body 12 may include a circuit board and multiple electronic components mounted on the circuit board. The connector 13 is disposed within the accommodating space 111 (e.g., the connector 13 is mounted on the circuit board), and the position of the connector 13 corresponds to the opening 112 for insertion of a cable connector 200.

[0060] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the cable connector 200 includes connectors located on opposite sides (e.g., on both sides of the connector). Figure 4 The cable connector 200 has two unlocking parts 201a on its left and right sides, and the cable connector 200 also includes multiple transmission lines 202. The cable connector 200 can be inserted into and locked into the connector 13 to be in a locked position (e.g., ...). Figure 4 This is achieved by setting an operating distance Do between each unlocking part 201a and an adjacent part of the device body 1, such that there is an operating distance Do between 1 mm and 4 mm. In this embodiment, the operating distance Do is located in an arrangement direction of the two unlocking parts 201a.

[0061] The unlocking outer cover 2 has a cover body 21, two mounting portions 22 respectively extending from two ends of the cover body 21, and two contact portions 23a extending from an inner surface of the cover body 21. The unlocking outer cover 2 is detachably fixed (e.g., screwed) to the casing 11 by the two mounting portions 22, so that the cover body 21 closes at least a part of the opening 112, at least a part of each contact portion 23a is located in the accommodating space 111 of the casing 11, and the cover body 21 and the outer surfaces of the two mounting portions 22 are preferably flush with the casing 11.

[0062] Further, since the operation distance Do is less than the width of a general operator's finger, it is not easy to manually press any unlocking portion 201a of the cable connector 200, so it is difficult to separate the cable connector 200 from the connector 13. However, in the present embodiment, when the cable connector 200 is in the latched position (e.g., as shown in Figure 5 ), the unlocking outer cover 2 can abut against the two unlocking portions 201a of the cable connector 200 by the two contact portions 23a, respectively, so that the cable connector 200 is adjusted from the latched position to an unlocking position (e.g., as shown in Figure 6 and Figure 7 ).

[0063] It should be noted that the unlocking outer cover 2 can have different structures to adjust the cable connector 200 in the latched position to the unlocking position according to design requirements, and the unlocking outer cover 2 in the present embodiment is described in the following structure, but the present application is not limited thereto. For example, in other embodiments not shown in the present application, the number of mounting portions 22 can be at least one, and the unlocking outer cover 2 can be detachably fixed to the casing 11 by at least one mounting portion 22.

[0064] In the present embodiment, as shown in Figures 3 to 5 , the cover body 21 includes a baffle plate 211 and a shielding plate 212 connected to the baffle plate 211 (substantially vertically). The two mounting portions 22 are formed (e.g., the baffle plate 211 and the two mounting portions 22 jointly constitute a flat plate body) from (two ends of) the baffle plate 211, and the baffle plate 211 is formed with a wire hole 2111 (located between the two mounting portions 22). When the unlocking outer cover 2 is fixed to the casing 11, the accommodating space 111 can be communicated with the outside through the wire hole 2111. Furthermore, when the cable connector 200 is inserted into the connector 13 and the unlocking outer cover 2 is fixed to the casing 11, at least one transmission line 202 of the cable connector 200 passes through the wire hole 2111.

[0065] Further, the shielding plate 212 is formed with two breakages 2121 corresponding to the two pressing portions 23a respectively, and the two pressing portions 23a are arranged opposite to each other and spaced apart; the two pressing portions 23a are arranged in mirror symmetry in this embodiment, but the present application is not limited thereto. It should be additionally noted that the number of breakages 2121 of the shielding plate 212 is two in this embodiment, but the present application is not limited thereto. For example, in other embodiments not shown in the present application, Figure 4 the shielding plate 212 in the present application can be further hollowed to connect the two breakages 2121 to form at least one breakage 2121.

[0066] In this embodiment, each pressing portion 23a comprises a pressing segment 231 extending from the inner surface of the shielding plate 212 towards the corresponding breakage 2121, and an operating segment 232 extending from the pressing segment 231 and passing through the corresponding breakage 2121. In any pressing portion 23a, the pressing segment 231 is substantially U-shaped, and one end of the pressing segment 231 is connected to the position between the corresponding breakage 2121 and the side edge of the adjacent shielding plate 212, and the other end of the pressing segment 231 is located in the corresponding breakage 2121.

[0067] Accordingly, as shown in Figs. 2A and 2B, when the cable connector 200 is in the locked position and the unlocking cover 2 is arranged on the casing 11, the two operating segments 232 can be pressed towards each other to make the two pressing segments 231 (elastically deform) to clamp the two unlocking portions 201a, thereby adjusting the cable connector 200 from the locked position to the unlocked position. Figure 5 Figure 6 As shown in Figs. 2A and 2B, when the cable connector 200 is in the locked position and the unlocking cover 2 is arranged on the casing 11, the two operating segments 232 can be pressed towards each other to make the two pressing segments 231 (elastically deform) to clamp the two unlocking portions 201a, thereby adjusting the cable connector 200 from the locked position to the unlocked position.

[0068] In order to enable the two pressing portions 23a of the unlocking cover 2 to effectively unlock the cable connector 200, the unlocking cover 2 preferably satisfies the following condition: the end of any pressing portion 23a away from the shielding plate 212 (such as the bottom end of the pressing segment 231 in Fig. 2A) is spaced apart from the inner surface of the shielding plate 212 by a triggering height H23 of 4-9 mm, but the present application is not limited thereto. Figure 5

[0069] In summary, in the electronic device 100 disclosed in the embodiments of the present application, the unlocking cover 2 can be mounted on the casing 11 as a protective cover, and the unlocking cover 2 can also be used as a tool for dismounting the cable connector 200 from the device body 1; that is, the unlocking cover 2 can be used to adjust the cable connector 200 from the locked position to the unlocked position, thereby facilitating the plugging and dismounting between the device body 1 (such as the connector 13) and the cable connector 200.

[0070] [Embodiment Two]

[0071] Please refer to​​Figures 8 to 11 As shown, it is the second embodiment of the present application. Since this embodiment is similar to the above-mentioned first embodiment, the same parts of the two embodiments will not be described again (such as the cable connector 200, the device body 1, the baffle 211 of the cover 21, the two mounting portions 22, the operation distance Do, and the trigger height H23), and the differences of this embodiment compared with the above-mentioned first embodiment are described as follows:

[0072] In this embodiment, as shown in Figure 8 and Figure 9 The shielding plate 212 of the cover 21 is not formed with any break 2121, and the two pressing portions 23a are formed from the inner surface of the cover 21, and the two pressing portions 23a are arranged opposite and spaced from each other, and the two pressing portions 23a are substantially mirror-symmetrical, but the present application is not limited thereto.

[0073] Further, each pressing portion 23a has a pressing section 231 connected to the baffle 211, and a guide section 233 extending from the pressing section 231 away from the baffle 211. In this embodiment, the two pressing sections 231 are substantially parallel to each other, and one end of the two pressing sections 231 is respectively (perpendicularly) connected to the two ends of the baffle 211, and the other end of the two pressing sections 231 respectively extends away from each other to form the two guide sections 233.

[0074] Accordingly, when the cable connector 200 is inserted into the connector 13 and the unlocking cover 2 is fixed to the casing 11, the two pressing portions 23a are located in the accommodation space 111 and clamped (through the two pressing sections 231) to the two unlocking portions 201a, so that the cable connector 200 is maintained in the unlocked position.

[0075] That is, after the cable connector 200 is in the latched position, the unlocking cover 2 is fixed to the casing 11, so that the cable connector 200 is adjusted to the unlocked position at the same time. When the unlocking cover 2 is fixed to the casing 11, the cable connector 200 in the unlocked position can normally operate with the connector 13; but when the cable connector 200 needs to be removed from the connector 13, the unlocking cover 2 can be detached from the casing 11, and the unlocking cover 2 can also clamp the cable connector 200 to be detached from the device body 1.

[0076] It should be additionally noted that the unlocking cover 2 in this embodiment is described by clamping the two pressing sections 231 to the two unlocking portions 201a respectively, but any one pressing section 231 can also be pressed against the corresponding unlocking portion 201a together with the connected guide section 233.

[0077] In addition, the two pressing portions 23a of the unlocking cover 2 are described above as being Figure 8 and Figure 9The specific configuration of the two pressing portions 23a can be adjusted according to design requirements. For example, as shown in Figure 10 and Figure 11 The two pressing portions 23a can be connected upright to the inner surface of the shielding plate 212, and the cross section (e.g., the cross section perpendicular to the length direction of the pressing portion 23a) of each pressing portion 23a is substantially T-shaped.

[0078] [Embodiment Three]

[0079] Please refer to Figures 12 to 14 which is embodiment three of the present application. Since this embodiment is similar to the above-described embodiment one, the same parts of the two embodiments will not be described again (e.g., the cable connector 200, the device body 1, the baffle 211 of the cover 21, the two mounting portions 22, the operation distance Do, and the trigger height H23), and the differences between this embodiment and the above-described embodiment one are described as follows:

[0080] In this embodiment, the shielding plate 212 of the cover 21 is not formed with any break 2121, and the shielding plate 212 has a pivot portion 2122 away from the baffle 211 and pivoted to the casing 11. The pivot portion 2122 includes two pivots respectively formed at two corners of the shielding plate 212, and the casing 11 is formed with two shaft holes respectively corresponding to the two pivots, but the present application is not limited thereto. For example, in other embodiments not shown in the present application, the pivot portion 2122 includes two shaft holes respectively formed at two corners of the shielding plate 212, and the casing 11 is formed with two pivots respectively corresponding to the two shaft holes.

[0081] Furthermore, each pressing portion 23a is connected upright to the inner surface of the shielding plate 212, and the shape of each pressing portion 23a is configured such that when the cable connector 200 is in the locked position, the shielding plate 212 can be rotated to a predetermined angle range relative to the casing 11, so that the two pressing portions 23a are clamped on the two unlocking portions 201a, thereby adjusting the cable connector 200 from the locked position to the unlocked position.

[0082] [Embodiment Four]

[0083] Please refer to Figures 15 to 17 which is embodiment four of the present application. Since this embodiment is similar to the above-described embodiment one, the same parts of the two embodiments will not be described again (e.g., the device body 1, the baffle 211 of the cover 21, the two mounting portions 22), and the differences between this embodiment and the above-described embodiment one are described as follows:

[0084] In this embodiment, the cable connector 200 includes one unlocking part 201b, and the unlocking part 201b is located on the side of the cable connector 200 adjacent to the opening 112 (e.g.: Figure 15 The top side of the cable connector 200. The cable connector 200 can be inserted into and locked into the connector 13 to be in a locked position (e.g.: Figure 15 and Figure 16 This is achieved by setting an operating distance Do between the unlocking part 201b and the adjacent part of the device body 1, which is between 1mm and 3mm. It should be noted that the operating distance Do can be adjusted according to design requirements and is not limited to the technical content described in this embodiment and Embodiment 1; for example, the operating distance Do in this invention can be between 1mm and 8mm.

[0085] Furthermore, the shielding plate 212 of the cover 21 does not have any openings 2121, and the number of the pressing part 23b of the unlockable outer cover 2 is one in this embodiment. The pressing part 23b is connected to the inner surface portion of the shielding plate 212 away from the baffle 211, and the pressing part 23b protrudes from the edge of the shielding plate 212 away from the baffle 211. The trigger height H23 corresponding to the pressing part 23b is between 3.5mm and 5mm. That is, according to the technical content described in this embodiment and Embodiment 1, the trigger height H23 in this invention can be between 3.5mm and 9mm.

[0086] Accordingly, when the cable connector 200 is in the locked position, the pressing part 23b of the unlocking cover 2 can abut against the unlocking part 201b of the cable connector 200, so that the cable connector 200 is adjusted from the locked position to an unlocked position that can be separated from the connector 13. Furthermore, when the cable connector 200 is inserted into the connector 13 and the unlocking cover 2 is fixed to the housing 11, the pressing part 23b is located within the receiving space 111 and abuts against the unlocking part 201b, so that the cable connector 200 is maintained in the unlocked position.

[0087] In other words, after the cable connector 200 is in the locked position, the unlocking cover 2, by being installed on the housing 11, synchronously adjusts the cable connector 200 to the unlocked position. When the unlocking cover 2 is installed on the housing 11, the cable connector 200 in the unlocked position can operate normally with the connector 13; however, when the cable connector 200 needs to be removed from the connector 13, the unlocking cover 2 can be removed from the housing 11, and the unlocking cover 2 can also clamp the cable connector 200, allowing it to be removed from the device body 1.

[0088] It is additionally noted that in other embodiments not shown in the present disclosure, the unlocking outer cover 2 can be further provided with two touch pressure portions 23a as described in any one of Embodiments 1 to 3 in addition to the touch pressure portion 23b of the present embodiment, so that the unlocking outer cover 2 can be applied to different cable connectors 200.

[0089] [Embodiment 5]

[0090] Please refer to Figures 18 to 20 shown, which is Embodiment 5 of the present disclosure. Since the present embodiment is similar to Embodiment 4 described above, the same parts of the two embodiments will not be described again (such as the cable connector 200, the device body 1, the baffle 211 of the cover 21, the two mounting portions 22, the operation distance Do, and the trigger height H23), and the differences between the present embodiment and Embodiment 4 described above are generally described as follows:

[0091] In the present embodiment, the shielding plate 212 has a pivot portion 2122 away from the baffle 211 and pivoted to the casing 11. The pivot portion 2122 includes two pivots respectively formed at two corners of the shielding plate 212, and the casing 11 is formed with two shaft holes respectively corresponding to the two pivots, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto. For example, in other embodiments not shown in the present disclosure, the pivot portion 2122 includes two shaft holes respectively formed at two corners of the shielding plate 212, and the casing 11 is formed with two pivots respectively corresponding to the two shaft holes.

[0092] Furthermore, the touch pressure portion 23b is connected to the inner surface of the shielding plate 212, and the shape of the touch pressure portion 23b is configured so that when the cable connector 200 is in the locked position, the shielding plate 212 can be rotated to a predetermined angle range relative to the casing 11, so that the touch pressure portion 23b abuts against the unlocking portion 201b, thereby adjusting the cable connector 200 from the locked position to the unlocked position.

[0093] [Technical effects of embodiments of the present disclosure]

[0094] In summary, the electronic device disclosed in the embodiments of the present disclosure employs an unlocking outer cover which can be mounted on the casing as a protective cover, and the unlocking outer cover can also serve as a tool for detaching the cable connector from the device body; that is, the unlocking outer cover can be used to adjust the cable connector from the locked position to the unlocked position, thereby facilitating the insertion and removal between the device body (such as the connector) and the cable connector.

[0095] The above disclosure is only the preferred and feasible embodiments of the present disclosure, and does not limit the patent scope of the present disclosure, so any equivalent technical changes made by applying the content of the present disclosure and the drawings are included in the patent scope of the present disclosure.
