The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with the present invention. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatuses and methods consistent with some aspects of the invention as detailed in the appended claims.

Figure 1b This is a schematic diagram of the second side structure of a camera decorative element according to an exemplary embodiment. Figure 2 This is an exploded view of a portion of the structure of an electronic device according to an exemplary embodiment.
[0042] like Figures 1a-2 As shown, this disclosure provides a camera decorative piece 40 for mounting on the battery cover 20 of an electronic device 100, serving both decorative and protective functions for the camera inside the battery cover 20. The electronic device 100 can be a mobile phone, tablet computer, wearable devices such as smart bracelets and smartwatches.
[0043] The camera trim 40 includes a body 41, which has a first side and a second side opposite to the first side. The body 41 may be rectangular in shape. The first side of the body 41 faces the camera 50, and the second side of the body 41 is exposed outside the battery cover 20. The first side of the body 41 has a mounting protrusion 42 and a stepped portion 43 surrounding the mounting protrusion 42. The outer contour of the mounting protrusion 42 may be rectangular, protruding from the first side of the body 41, and has a mounting hole 21 for mounting with the battery cover 20. Figure 4 The inner wall is connected to the outer peripheral wall (as shown). The step portion 43 extends outward from the periphery of the mounting protrusion 42. The overall shape of the step portion 43 can be rectangular, and the extension length at the bottom can be greater than the extension length at the top. The step portion 43 is used to cover part of the outer surface of the battery cover 20 so that the camera decorative piece 40 is in a floating posture.
[0044] At least one light-transmitting hole is provided on the body 41, penetrating through the first and second surfaces of the body 41. For example, the light-transmitting hole may include a camera hole for accommodating a camera and allowing the camera to collect external light. The camera hole penetrates the mounting protrusion 42. Multiple camera holes can be provided, and the number of camera holes can be set according to actual needs. For example, there are three camera holes: a first camera hole 451, a second camera hole 452, and a third camera hole 453, arranged in a triangular pattern. The first camera hole 451 has a slightly larger diameter than the second camera hole 452 and the third camera hole 453. The first camera hole 451 is the main camera hole, used to accommodate the main camera, while the second camera hole 452 and the third camera hole 453 are auxiliary camera holes.
[0045] The relevant structure positions the camera via the mid-frame. However, due to assembly errors between the camera trim 40 and other parts, misalignment can occur between the camera's shooting end and the light-transmitting hole. To address this issue, a positioning part 44 is provided on the first surface of the main body 41, surrounding at least one light-transmitting hole. For example, a positioning part 44 surrounding each camera hole is provided on the mounting protrusion 42. The positioning part 44 is used to position the camera and hold it within the camera hole. In other words, this embodiment first performs coarse positioning using the positioning structure on the mid-frame, and then performs fine positioning of the camera using the positioning part 44 on the camera trim 40, thus resolving the misalignment problem caused by positioning the camera via the mid-frame.
[0046] The camera decorative part 40 of this embodiment not only serves to decorate and protect the camera, but also serves to position the camera by providing a positioning part 44 for positioning the camera on the mounting protrusion 42. Therefore, it is not necessary to provide the positioning part 44 on the housing 10 of the electronic device 100. This can also reduce the space occupied by the electronic device 100 and is conducive to the thinning of the electronic device 100.
[0047] When the camera trim 40 is installed on the electronic device 100, the mounting protrusion 42 on the first surface of the body 41 extends into the mounting hole 21 of the battery cover 20, and the stepped portion 43 on the first surface of the body 41 covers the outer surface of the battery cover 20 and is suspended from the battery cover 20. In this way, the portion of the body 41 located on the outer surface of the battery cover 20 is not limited by the size of the mounting hole 21 of the battery cover 20, reducing design complexity. Furthermore, with the same body 41 size, the mounting hole 21 on the battery cover 20 can be smaller, and the mounting hole 21 does not need to be made at the location of the battery 30, so the mounting protrusion 42 of the body 41 also avoids the battery.
[0048] In related technologies, in order to accommodate the camera decorative piece, a mounting hole 21 matching the camera decorative piece needs to be opened in the battery cover 20. The mounting hole 21 needs to be extended to the position of the battery 30 below the battery cover 20. The camera decorative piece is welded to the housing 10 (such as the rear housing of the electronic device 100) by a support steel sheet. Since the camera decorative piece extends to the position of the battery 30, the support steel sheet has burrs. Therefore, the support steel sheet needs to avoid the battery in the thickness direction of the electronic device 100, so that there is an avoidance gap between the support steel sheet and the battery. This will lead to an increase in the overall thickness, which is not conducive to the thinning of the electronic device 100.
[0049] Since the camera decorative component 40 of this embodiment has a mounting protrusion 42 and a stepped portion 43 on the body 41, there is no need to open a mounting hole 21 on the battery cover 20 that matches the size of the body 41. Therefore, the mounting hole 21 does not need to extend to the position of the battery. In this way, the supporting steel sheet does not need to avoid the battery in the thickness direction of the electronic device 100, which is beneficial to the thinning of the electronic device 100.
[0050] In some embodiments, the positioning part 44 includes a plurality of positioning blocks, with at least two positioning blocks spaced apart. Compared to a continuous positioning structure, the spaced positioning blocks reduce weight, making the camera trim 40 lighter. When installed in the electronic device 100, this also helps to reduce the weight of the electronic device 100 and improve the user experience.
[0051] In some embodiments, the light-transmitting aperture includes a first camera aperture 451, a second camera aperture 452, a third camera aperture 453, and a sensor aperture 454. The first camera aperture 451, the second camera aperture 452, and the third camera aperture 453 are arranged in a triangular pattern. The sensor aperture 454 is positioned adjacent to the first camera aperture 451 and the second camera aperture 452. The first camera aperture 451 corresponds to the main camera, and the color temperature sensor is closer to the main camera to ensure that the color temperature sensor can more accurately detect the ambient color temperature, thereby improving image quality.
[0052] In some embodiments, the positioning unit 44 includes a plurality of first positioning blocks, which are distributed around the center of the first camera hole 451. Two first positioning blocks adjacent to the sensor hole 454 are spaced apart. This spaced-apart arrangement of the first positioning blocks adjacent to the sensor hole 454, i.e., separate units, reduces weight and avoids the sensor hole 454, providing clearance for the color temperature sensor and making installation easier. The inner wall of the first positioning block has a contoured structure to match the shape of the first camera, thereby improving the positioning accuracy of the camera.
[0053] In one example, four first positioning blocks can be provided, arranged in a quadrilateral shape, with the first positioning block furthest from the sensor hole 454 being L-shaped. For example, the first positioning blocks can be provided at the four corners of the camera. The two first positioning blocks furthest from the sensor hole 454 are connected together to form a single structure to improve positioning strength. The two first positioning blocks adjacent to the sensor hole 454 are spaced apart to reduce weight, thus enabling a thinner and lighter camera decorative component 40 while maintaining positioning strength.
[0054] Further, the first positioning block includes a first part, a second part, a third part, and a fourth part. The first and second parts are located at a corner away from the second and third camera holes. Both the first and second parts have at least two first support surfaces, and an arc-shaped transition structure is provided between the two first support surfaces. The third part is located at a corner away from the sensor hole. The third part also has at least two second support surfaces, and an arc-shaped transition structure is provided between the two second support surfaces. The first and second parts have a first gap. The second and third parts have notches and reinforcing ribs located at the notches. The width of the notches is equal to the width of the first gap. The third and fourth parts have a second gap. A third support surface is provided on one side of the fourth part, and the third support surface abuts against the side wall of the camera.
[0055] To locate other cameras, the other side of the fourth part is provided with at least two fourth support surfaces and an arc transition structure between the fourth support surfaces, which is used to locate the secondary cameras.
[0056] In addition, the positioning unit 44 also includes a plurality of second positioning blocks, which are distributed around the center of the second camera hole 452, and are spaced apart to reduce weight. And / or, the positioning unit 44 also includes a plurality of third positioning blocks, which are distributed around the center of the third camera hole 453, and are spaced apart to reduce weight.
[0057] In some embodiments, the camera trim 40 further includes a lens 49 disposed on the second surface of the body 41 and covering at least a portion of the light-transmitting hole. The light-transmitting hole may include any one of the aforementioned camera hole, sensor hole 454, and flash hole 46. The lens 49 can be adhered and fixed to the second surface of the body 41 using a second double-sided adhesive 491.
[0058] Lens 49 is made of a light-transmitting material, such as a transparent glass lens or a transparent plastic lens. Lens 49 protects the camera and also provides dust and water resistance.
[0059] In one example, a groove 48 can be formed on the second surface of the body 41. The camera hole and sensor hole 454 can be located in the groove 48. The lens 49 can be glued to the groove 48 to cover the camera hole and sensor hole 454. The sensor hole 454 is positioned adjacent to the first camera hole 451 and the second camera hole 452 to ensure the light-sensing performance of the photosensitive element through the sensor hole 454.
[0060] The flash hole 46 is located on the side of the second camera hole 452 and the third camera hole 453 away from the first camera hole 451, and the flash hole 46 is strip-shaped. The flash hole 46 can be located below the receiving groove, and its width can be between 1.3mm and 1.8mm, so as to reduce the space occupied by the camera decoration part 40 and improve the aesthetics.
[0061] Weight-reducing grooves can be formed on both the first and second sides of the main body 41. For example, a weight-reducing groove can be formed on the first side of the main body 41 near the flash hole 46, and / or a shock-absorbing groove 47 can be formed at the bottom of the stepped portion 43 on the first side of the main body 41. Weight-reducing grooves can also be formed on the second side of the main body 41 near the camera hole and sensor hole, for example, multiple weight-reducing grooves can be formed around the first camera hole 451 to reduce the weight of the main body 41. Since the camera hole is blocked by the lens, forming weight-reducing grooves near the camera hole does not affect the aesthetics and can effectively reduce the weight of the main body 41. Since the weight-reducing grooves on the first and second sides avoid each other, the strength of the camera decorative part can be ensured.
[0062] In some embodiments, the outer wall of the mounting protrusion 42 is a slope, the angle of which relative to the first surface of the body 41 is greater than 0 degrees and less than 90 degrees. The outer wall of the mounting protrusion 42 is fixed to the inner wall of the mounting hole 21 of the battery cover 20 by adhesive dispensing. Compared to a vertical surface, the sloped outer wall of the mounting protrusion 42 increases the bonding area with the mounting hole 21, improving the bonding strength. Furthermore, the slope angle, greater than 0 degrees and less than 90 degrees, creates a funnel shape, facilitating adhesive dispensing and retention, preventing adhesive from flowing to other components and affecting their performance.
[0063] According to embodiments of this disclosure, an electronic device 100 is also provided, including a housing 10, a battery cover 20, a battery 30, and a camera decorative element 40, wherein the camera decorative element 40 is the camera decorative element 40 mentioned in any of the embodiments above. The electronic device 100 may be a mobile phone, a tablet computer, or a wearable device such as a smart bracelet and a smartwatch.
[0064] The housing 10 serves as the internal support for the electronic device 100, providing support for the various components. The housing 10 can also be referred to as the rear cover. The camera 50, motherboard, and flash assembly 70, etc., are mounted on the top of the housing 10.
[0065] A battery cover 20 is disposed on the housing 10, forming a receiving space between the battery cover 20 and the housing 10 to accommodate the camera 50, the motherboard, and the flash assembly 70, etc. A mounting hole 21 is provided on the battery cover 20. The mounting protrusion 42 of the camera decorative piece 40 passes through the mounting hole 21, and the stepped portion 43 of the camera decorative piece 40 covers part of the battery cover 20, and can be adhered and fixed to the outer surface of the battery cover 20 by a first double-sided adhesive 431. That is, a part of the camera decorative piece 40 is located inside the mounting hole 21 of the battery cover 20, and another part is located outside the battery cover 20. The positioning portion 44 of the camera decorative piece 40 holds the camera 50 within the camera hole.
[0066] The electronic device 100 of this disclosure provides a positioning part 44 for positioning the camera on the mounting protrusion 42 of the camera decorative part 40. This not only serves to decorate and protect the camera, but also to position the camera. Therefore, it is not necessary to provide the positioning part 44 on the housing 10 of the electronic device 100. This also reduces the space occupied by the electronic device 100 and is conducive to the thinning of the electronic device 100.
[0067] When the camera trim 40 is installed on the electronic device 100, the mounting protrusion 42 on the first surface of the body 41 extends into the mounting hole 21 of the battery cover 20, and the stepped portion 43 on the first surface of the body 41 covers the outer surface of the battery cover 20 and is suspended from the battery cover 20. In this way, the portion of the body 41 located on the outer surface of the battery cover 20 is not limited by the size of the mounting hole 21 of the battery cover 20, reducing design complexity. Furthermore, with the same body 41 size, the mounting hole 21 on the battery cover 20 can be smaller, and the mounting hole 21 does not need to be made at the location of the battery 30, so the mounting protrusion 42 of the body 41 also avoids the battery.
[0068] In related technologies, in order to accommodate the camera decorative piece, a mounting hole 21 matching the camera decorative piece needs to be opened in the battery cover 20. The mounting hole 21 needs to be extended to the position of the battery 30 below the battery cover 20. The camera decorative piece is welded to the housing 10 (such as the rear housing of the electronic device 100) by a support steel sheet. Since the camera decorative piece extends to the position of the battery 30, the support steel sheet has burrs. Therefore, the support steel sheet needs to avoid the battery in the thickness direction of the electronic device 100, so that there is an avoidance gap between the support steel sheet and the battery. This will lead to an increase in the overall thickness, which is not conducive to the thinning of the electronic device 100.
[0069] In the electronic device 100 of this disclosure, since the camera decorative member 40 has a mounting protrusion 42 and a stepped portion 43, that is, a part of which is located inside the mounting hole 21 of the battery cover 20 and the other part is located outside the battery cover 20, it is not necessary to open a mounting hole 21 on the battery cover 20 that matches the size of the camera decorative member 40, and the mounting hole 21 does not need to extend to the position of the battery. In this way, the supporting steel sheet does not need to avoid the battery in the thickness direction of the electronic device 100, which is beneficial to the thinning of the electronic device 100.
[0070] In some embodiments, the electronic device 100 further includes a support member 421 disposed between the mounting protrusion 42 and the housing 10 to improve the fixing strength of the camera decorative member 40. The support member 421 can be a steel sheet, and the upper surface of the support member 421 can be adhered and fixed to the mounting protrusion 42 by a fourth double-sided adhesive 422, while the lower surface of the support member 421 can be welded to the housing 10. In the thickness direction of the electronic device 100, the support member 421 does not overlap with the battery 30.
[0071] Since the camera decorative piece 40 is mounted on the mounting hole 21 of the battery cover 20 via the mounting protrusion 42, the battery cover 20 does not need to have a mounting hole 21 that matches the size of the camera decorative piece 40. It only needs to have a mounting hole 21 that matches the mounting protrusion 42. The mounting hole 21 does not need to extend to the position of the battery 30. Therefore, the support member 421 does not need to extend to the position of the battery 30 and does not need to avoid the battery 30 in the thickness direction of the electronic device 100. That is, the support member 421 and the battery 30 do not overlap in the thickness direction of the electronic device 100, thereby reducing the overall thickness of the electronic device 100.
[0072] The projection of battery 30 onto battery cover 20 lies outside the mounting hole 21 on battery cover 20; in other words, the mounting hole 21 on battery cover 20 does not extend to the location of battery 30. The area of the bottom of the stepped portion 43 of camera trim 40 covering battery cover 20 is larger than the area of the top of the stepped portion 43 covering battery cover 20. Since camera trim 40 is mounted on mounting hole 21 of battery cover 20 via mounting protrusion 42, and the stepped portion 43 of camera trim 40 covers the outer surface of battery cover 20, the stepped portion 43 exposed on the outer surface of battery cover 20 is no longer restricted by the mounting hole 21 on battery cover 20, reducing design complexity.
[0073] In one embodiment, the inner wall of the mounting hole 21 of the battery cover 20 is fixed to the outer wall of the mounting protrusion 42 of the camera decorative piece 40 by adhesive dispensing 22. The inner wall of the mounting hole 21 of the battery cover 20 is a slope 201, with an angle greater than 90 degrees and less than 180 degrees relative to the horizontal plane. Compared to a vertical plane, the sloped inner wall of the mounting hole 21 increases the bonding area with the camera decorative piece 40, improving the bonding strength. Furthermore, the slope angle is greater than 0 degrees and less than 90 degrees, creating a funnel shape that facilitates adhesive dispensing and retention, preventing adhesive from flowing to other components and affecting their performance.
[0074] Figure 4 This is an exploded view of a camera trim and battery cover according to an exemplary embodiment. Figure 5 This is a cross-sectional view of a lampshade structure according to an exemplary embodiment. Figure 7 This is a cross-sectional view of a flash assembly structure according to an exemplary embodiment.
[0075] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 7As shown, the electronic device 100 also includes a flash assembly 70, located within the housing 10, corresponding to the upper flash hole 46 on the camera trim 40. Light emitted from the flash assembly 70 is emitted through the flash hole 46. The flash assembly 70 includes a circuit board 76, a light source 71 disposed on the circuit board 76, and a lamp cover 72. The lamp cover 72 is disposed on the circuit board 76, covering the light source 71, and is at least partially located within the flash hole 46.
[0076] The circuit board 76 is connected to the main board inside the electronic device 100, and the lampshade 72 can be attached to the circuit board 76 with double-sided adhesive. A light guide 73 can be placed between the lampshade 72 and the light source 71 to guide / uniform the light emitted by the light source 71.
[0077] Specifically, such as Figure 5 As shown, the lampshade 72 includes a cover body 721 and a light-transmitting protrusion 722 disposed on the top surface of the cover body 721. The light-transmitting protrusion 722 is located inside the flash hole 46. The lampshade 72 also includes a reflective portion 723 connecting the cover body 721 and the light-transmitting protrusion 722. A portion of the light emitted by the light source 71 is reflected by the reflective portion 723 and the cover body 721 before being emitted from the light-transmitting protrusion 722. The chamfered bevel between the cover body 721 and the light-transmitting protrusion 722 forms the aforementioned reflective portion 723. The light emitted by the light source 71 not only shines directly through the light-transmitting protrusion 722, but also shines out from the light-transmitting protrusion 722 after being reflected by the reflective portion 723 and the cover body 721. This increases the amount of light emitted and improves the illumination brightness, thereby ensuring the photographic effect even in darker environments.
