Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of terminal equipment technology, and in particular to a terminal and an electronic device applicable to the terminal. Background Technology
[0002] As one of the main components of a vehicle, on-board charging equipment is popular among users because it can charge mobile phones and other electronic devices at any time.
[0003] In traditional technology, vehicles typically have a USB port or cigarette lighter socket located on the dashboard. To charge, a charging cable is connected to either the USB port or cigarette lighter socket, and one end of the cable is plugged into the charging port of an electronic device such as a mobile phone.
[0004] However, charging mobile phones and other electronic devices via USB or cigarette lighter ports and charging cables makes the vehicle interior cluttered and affects its cleanliness. Summary of the Invention
[0005] This application provides a terminal and an electronic device applicable to the terminal, which can solve the problem that charging electronic devices by a traditional terminal can lead to clutter inside the vehicle and affect the cleanliness of the vehicle interior.
[0006] This application provides a terminal, including an air outlet and a charging device;
[0007] The charging device includes a first charging element located on a portion of the air outlet. The first charging element is used to charge an electronic device. The electronic device has a second charging element that matches the first charging element. The second charging element is used to couple or make electrical contact with the first charging element when the electronic device is fixed at the air outlet to charge the electronic device.
[0008] The terminal provided in this application embodiment places the first charging element of the charging device on the air outlet. Thus, when an electronic device with a second charging element is fixed to the air outlet, the second charging element on the electronic device can be coupled or electrically contacted with the first charging element, enabling uninterrupted charging of the electronic device. Compared to traditional terminal charging devices, the terminal in this application embodiment eliminates the need for a charging cable, thus avoiding the clutter that can occur when charging electronic devices, ensuring a clean and tidy internal environment. Furthermore, the terminal in this application embodiment eliminates the charging cable connecting the USB interface or cigarette lighter interface to the electronic device, as is common in traditional technologies, avoiding safety hazards caused by quality issues with such accessories. Additionally, fixing the electronic device to the air outlet for charging allows the heat from the electronic device to be carried away by the cool air from the outlet, extending the lifespan of the electronic device.
[0009] In one alternative implementation, the first charging element includes a first charging coil disposed on a portion of the air outlet.
[0010] The second charging element includes a second charging coil that matches the first charging coil. The second charging coil is used to couple with the first charging coil when the electronic device is fixed at the air outlet to charge the electronic device.
[0011] This embodiment of the application sets the first charging element as a first charging coil located on the air outlet, and sets the second charging element of the electronic device as a second charging coil that matches the first charging coil. In this way, when the electronic device is fixed at the air outlet, the first charging coil and the second charging coil can be coupled together to realize the wireless charging process of the terminal's charging device for the electronic device. This not only ensures that the internal environment of the terminal is clean and tidy during charging, but also simplifies the structure of the charging device and the charging process, and improves the convenience of the terminal's charging device for the electronic device.
[0012] In one alternative implementation, the first charging element includes a first charging contact, which is disposed on a portion of the air outlet.
[0013] The second charging element includes a second charging contact that matches the first charging contact. The second charging contact is used to make electrical contact with the first charging contact when the electronic device is fixed at the air outlet to charge the electronic device.
[0014] This embodiment of the application sets the first charging element as a first charging contact located on the air outlet, and sets the second charging element of the electronic device as a second charging contact that matches the first charging contact. Thus, when the electronic device is fixed at the air outlet, the charging process of the terminal's charging device can be realized by electrically contacting the first charging contact with the second charging contact. This not only ensures a clean and tidy internal environment of the terminal during charging, but also simplifies the structure of the charging device and the charging process, improving the charging efficiency of the terminal's charging device for electronic devices. Furthermore, setting the first charging element as the first charging contact also facilitates the assembly of the first charging element on the air outlet, thereby improving the assembly efficiency of the charging device on the terminal.
[0015] In one alternative implementation, the air outlet is an air conditioning outlet, and the air conditioning outlet has multiple spaced grilles, with the first charging element located on the grilles.
[0016] This embodiment of the application not only ensures the stability of the first charging element at the air outlet by setting the first charging element on the grille of the air conditioner vent, but also enables the electronic device to be stably fixed at the air conditioner vent for charging. At the same time, the cold air from the air conditioner vent can remove the heat from the electronic device in time, extending the service life of the electronic device. In addition, it also makes effective use of the air conditioner vent of the terminal.
[0017] In one alternative implementation, at least some of the grilles have at least one first adsorption layer for adsorbing electronic devices to fix them to the air outlet.
[0018] This embodiment of the application provides a first adsorption layer on at least a portion of the grille to adsorb electronic devices onto the grille of the air outlet. This ensures the electronic devices are stably fixed at the air outlet while simplifying the fixing structure of the electronic devices on the terminal's air outlet, allowing for convenient and quick fixation. Furthermore, the first adsorption layer does not require consideration of the specific structure of the terminal's air outlet, making its installation more convenient and flexible. It also allows the electronic devices fixed to the air outlet to rotate as needed to adjust the fixing angle, thereby meeting charging or usage requirements.
[0019] In one alternative implementation, the first adsorption layer is a soft adhesive layer, and at least one groove is formed on the first adsorption layer, with the back of the electronic device adsorbed at the opening of the groove.
[0020] In this embodiment, the first adsorption layer is set as a soft adhesive layer, and a groove is provided on the first adsorption layer. In this way, when the electronic device is pressed onto the first adsorption layer, the air between the electronic device and the first adsorption layer can be discharged through the groove. Thus, the external air pressure can be used to stably adsorb the electronic device onto the first adsorption layer, thereby improving the stability of the electronic device at the air outlet.
[0021] In one alternative implementation, there are multiple grooves, which are spaced apart along the extension direction of the first adsorption layer.
[0022] The first adsorption layer extends in the same direction as the grid.
[0023] In this embodiment, multiple grooves are spaced apart on the first adsorption layer. This allows air between the back of the electronic device and the first adsorption layer to be discharged through the grooves, thereby enabling the electronic device to be stably adsorbed onto the first adsorption layer through the grooves. This further improves the stability of the electronic device at the air outlet and ensures the stability of the electronic device's engagement with the first charging element on the grille during charging.
[0024] In one alternative implementation, the first adsorption layer is composed of any one or more of silicone, rubber, polypropylene, and ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer to improve the fabrication flexibility of the first adsorption layer while ensuring the adsorption effect on electronic devices.
[0025] In one alternative implementation, at least a portion of the back side of the electronic device has a second adsorption layer;
[0026] The surfaces of the first and second adsorption layers opposite each other have multiple pits, and the first and second adsorption layers adsorb each other under the action of frictional resistance.
[0027] This application embodiment provides a second adsorption layer on at least a portion of the back of the electronic device, and sets the opposing surfaces of the first and second adsorption layers as rough surfaces with multiple pits. In this way, when the electronic device is placed on the grille of the air outlet, the frictional resistance between the first and second adsorption layers allows the electronic device to be stably fixed on the first adsorption layer of the grille. This not only simplifies the fixing structure of the electronic device on the air outlet of the terminal, but also facilitates the fixing of the electronic device on the grille of the air outlet. In addition, the above fixing method allows the electronic device to be rotated according to actual needs to adjust the fixing angle, thereby meeting the charging or usage requirements.
[0028] In one alternative implementation, at least a portion of the grid is provided with multiple first adsorption layers;
[0029] Multiple first adsorption layers are spaced apart along the extension direction of the grille. This not only ensures that the electronic device can be stably fixed on the grille, but also expands the fixing range of the electronic device, allowing it to be fixed at different positions along the extension direction of the grille. Thus, the fixing position of the electronic device on the air outlet can be adjusted according to the actual situation.
[0030] In one alternative implementation, each grid has a first adsorption layer, and at least a portion of the grid has a first charging element.
[0031] This embodiment of the application improves the flexibility of the terminal's charging device by providing a first adsorption layer on each grille, allowing the first charging element to be placed on any one or more grilles. It also allows the electronic device to be fixed at any position on the air outlet.
[0032] In one alternative implementation, the electronic device is magnetically fixed to the grille. This ensures stable mounting of the device at the air outlet while simplifying the mounting structure, allowing for convenient and quick attachment. Furthermore, the magnetic fixation allows the device to rotate on the grille as needed to adjust the mounting angle, thus accommodating charging or usage requirements.
[0033] In one alternative implementation, a first magnetic element is provided on at least a portion of the outer end face of the grille, and a second magnetic element is provided on at least a portion of the back side of the electronic device;
[0034] The first magnetic component and the second magnetic component attract each other through magnetic attraction, thereby fixing the electronic device to the grid.
[0035] This application embodiment provides a first magnetic element on the outer end face of the grille and a second magnetic element on the back of the electronic device. This ensures the stability of the connection between the electronic device and the grille while simplifying the connection structure between the electronic device and the grille, thereby improving the manufacturing efficiency of the terminal and the fixing efficiency of the electronic device.
[0036] In one alternative implementation, the first magnetic component is staggered from the first charging coil of the first charging element to avoid interference with the magnetic field generated by the first magnetic component and thus affecting the charging effect on the electronic device.
[0037] In one alternative implementation, both the first magnetic component and the second magnetic component are magnets, which simplifies the arrangement of the first magnetic component and the second magnetic component.
[0038] In one alternative implementation, one of the first magnetic component and the second magnetic component is a magnet, and the other of the first magnetic component and the second magnetic component is a soft magnet. This allows for greater flexibility in the arrangement of the first magnetic component and the second magnetic component, and results in a simpler structure.
[0039] In one alternative implementation, an installation cavity is formed within the grille of the air conditioning vent;
[0040] The first charging coil, which contains the first charging element, is embedded in the mounting cavity.
[0041] This embodiment of the application improves the stability of the first charging coil on the grille by providing a mounting cavity within the grille of the air conditioning vent and placing the first charging coil of the first charging element within the mounting cavity. This also prevents the first charging coil from being exposed to the outer surface of the grille and thus avoiding contamination from the external environment, which could damage the first charging coil. Furthermore, by embedding the first charging coil within the mounting cavity of the grille, the outer surface structure of the grille remains unaffected, facilitating the placement of the first adsorption layer or the first magnetic component, and further enhancing the stability of the electronic device on the grille.
[0042] In one alternative implementation, the terminal is a vehicle. This allows the driver to easily operate the electronic device while it is being charged by fixing it to the vehicle's air conditioning vent.
[0043] This application also provides an electronic device having a second charging element, which is used to couple or make electrical contact with a first charging element of the terminal when the electronic device is fixed on the air outlet of the terminal to charge the electronic device.
[0044] This application embodiment incorporates a second charging element on the electronic device. When the electronic device is fixed to the air vent of a terminal, the second charging element can be coupled or electrically contacted with the first charging element at the air vent, enabling uninterrupted charging. Compared to traditional charging structures, this embodiment eliminates the need for a charging cable, preventing clutter and ensuring a clean internal environment. Furthermore, this charging method removes the charging cable between the USB or cigarette lighter interface and the electronic device, avoiding safety hazards caused by quality issues with such cables. Additionally, fixing the electronic device to the air vent allows the cool air to dissipate heat during charging, extending the device's lifespan.
[0045] In one alternative implementation, the second charging element includes a second charging coil, and the first charging element includes a first charging coil disposed on the air outlet.
[0046] The second charging coil is used to couple with the first charging coil of the terminal when the electronic device is fixed to the air outlet to charge the electronic device.
[0047] This application embodiment sets the first charging element as a first charging coil located on the air outlet, and sets the second charging element of the electronic device as a second charging coil that matches the first charging coil. In this way, when the electronic device is fixed at the air outlet, the first charging coil and the second charging coil can be coupled together to realize the wireless charging process of the terminal's charging device for the electronic device. This not only ensures that the internal environment of the terminal is clean and tidy during charging, but also simplifies the structure of the charging device and the charging process, and improves the charging portability of the electronic device on the terminal.
[0048] In one alternative implementation, the second charging element includes a second charging contact, and the first charging element includes a first charging contact disposed on the air outlet.
[0049] The second charging contact is used to make electrical contact with the first charging contact of the terminal when the electronic device is fixed to the air vent, so as to charge the electronic device.
[0050] This embodiment of the application sets the first charging element as a first charging contact located on the air outlet, and sets the second charging element of the electronic device as a second charging contact that matches the first charging contact. In this way, when the electronic device is fixed at the air outlet, the charging process of the terminal's charging device can be realized by making the first charging contact and the second charging contact electrically contact each other. This not only ensures that the internal environment of the terminal is clean and tidy during charging, but also simplifies the structure of the charging device and the charging process, and improves the charging portability of the electronic device on the terminal.
[0051] In one alternative implementation, at least a portion of the back of the electronic device has a second adsorption layer, and at least a portion of the multiple grilles of the terminal have at least one first adsorption layer.
[0052] The surfaces of the first and second adsorption layers opposite each other have multiple pits, and the first and second adsorption layers adsorb each other under the action of frictional resistance.
[0053] This application embodiment provides a second adsorption layer on at least a portion of the back of the electronic device, and sets the surface of the second adsorption layer and the first adsorption layer on the grille opposite each other as a rough surface with multiple pits. In this way, when the electronic device is placed on the grille of the air outlet, the frictional resistance between the first adsorption layer and the second adsorption layer can stably fix the electronic device on the first adsorption layer of the grille. This not only simplifies the fixing structure of the electronic device on the air outlet of the terminal, but also makes it easier to fix the electronic device on the grille of the air outlet. In addition, the above fixing method allows the electronic device to be rotated according to actual needs to adjust the fixing angle, thereby meeting the charging or usage requirements.
[0054] In one alternative implementation, at least a portion of the back of the electronic device is provided with a second magnetic element, and at least a portion of the grille of the terminal is provided with a first magnetic element.
[0055] The first magnetic component and the second magnetic component attract each other through magnetic attraction, thereby fixing the electronic device to the grid.
[0056] This application embodiment provides a first magnetic element on the outer end face of the grille and a second magnetic element on the back of the electronic device. This ensures the stability of the connection between the electronic device and the grille while simplifying the connection structure between the electronic device and the grille, and improving the fixing efficiency of the electronic device at the air outlet of the terminal.

[0074] The terminology used in the implementation section of this application is for the purpose of explaining specific embodiments of this application only, and is not intended to limit this application.
[0075] Currently, vehicles and other terminals are usually equipped with charging devices to ensure that they can charge electronic devices such as mobile phones at any time. For example, on-board charging devices are an essential component of vehicles and are loved by many users.
[0076] In traditional technologies, on-board charging devices for vehicles and other terminals include a USB port or cigarette lighter socket located on the dashboard. During charging, a charging cable is connected to the USB port or cigarette lighter socket, and one end of the cable is plugged into the charging port of an electronic device such as a mobile phone, thus enabling the charging of the device.
[0077] However, charging mobile phones and other electronic devices via USB or cigarette lighter ports and charging cables makes the vehicle interior cluttered, affecting its cleanliness and aesthetics. Furthermore, the quality of cigarette lighter / USB ports, charging cables, and other accessories on the market varies greatly, introducing certain safety hazards.
[0078] This application provides a terminal and an electronic device suitable for use on the terminal. By placing the first charging element of the terminal's charging device on the air outlet, when an electronic device with a second charging element is fixed to the air outlet, the second charging element on the electronic device can be coupled or electrically contacted with the first charging element, enabling uninterrupted charging of the electronic device. Compared to traditional terminal charging devices, the terminal of this application embodiment can charge electronic devices without using a charging cable, thus avoiding the clutter that can occur inside the terminal when charging electronic devices, ensuring a clean and tidy internal environment. Furthermore, the terminal of this application embodiment eliminates the charging connection cable between the USB interface or cigarette lighter interface and the electronic device in traditional technologies, thus avoiding safety hazards caused by quality issues with such accessories. Additionally, fixing the electronic device to the terminal's air outlet for charging allows the heat from the electronic device to be carried away by the cool air from the air outlet during charging, thereby extending the lifespan of the electronic device.
[0079] The following describes in detail the structure of the terminal and electronic device according to several scenarios.
[0080] Scene 1
[0081] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the first structural design of the air outlet in the terminal provided in this application embodiment. (Refer to...) Figure 1 As shown in the figure, this application embodiment provides a terminal, including an air outlet 10 and a charging device.
[0082] The charging device in this embodiment includes a first charging element 20, which is located on a portion of the air outlet 10 and is used to charge the electronic device 30. Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the first structure of the back of the electronic device provided in the embodiments of this application. Figure 3 This is a first assembly diagram of an electronic device fixed to the air outlet of a terminal provided in this application embodiment. (Refer to...) Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the electronic device 30 has a second charging element 31 that matches the first charging element 20. The second charging element 31 is used to couple or make electrical contact with the first charging element 20 when the electronic device 30 is fixed at the air outlet 10, so as to charge the electronic device 30.
[0083] It should be noted that the terminal in this application embodiment can be a device with an air outlet 10, such as a vehicle, an airplane, or a ship. Taking a vehicle as an example, the air outlet 10 may include, but is not limited to, the air conditioning outlet and PM2.5 filter on the vehicle.
[0084] The electronic device 30 provided in this application embodiment may include, but is not limited to, mobile devices with charging components such as mobile phones, tablets, laptops, ultra-mobile personal computers (UMPCs), handheld computers, walkie-talkies, netbooks, POS machines, personal digital assistants (PDAs), wearable devices, and virtual reality devices. The following uses a mobile phone as an example to describe the specific structure of the electronic device 30 and the terminal in detail.
[0085] For example, refer to Figure 1 As shown, a first charging element 20 is installed in a portion of the vehicle's air conditioning vent. This first charging element 20 is used to charge an electronic device 30, such as a mobile phone, which has a second charging element 31. The first charging element 20 and the second charging element 31 are matched. (Refer to...) Figure 3 As shown, when the mobile phone is fixed at the air conditioner vent, the second charging element 31 on the mobile phone is coupled to the first charging element 20 at the air vent 10, thereby charging the mobile phone.
[0086] The terminal provided in this application embodiment has a first charging element 20 of the charging device disposed on the air outlet 10. In this way, when the electronic device 30 with the second charging element 31 is fixed on the air outlet 10, the second charging element 31 on the electronic device 30 can be coupled or electrically contacted with the first charging element 20, so that the electronic device 30 can be charged uninterruptedly. Compared with the charging device on the traditional terminal, the terminal in this application embodiment can realize the charging function of the electronic device 30 without the use of a charging cable, thereby avoiding the situation of the terminal's internal environment becoming messy when the charging device on the terminal is charging the electronic device 30, and ensuring that the internal environment of the terminal is clean and tidy.
[0087] Meanwhile, when the terminal charging device of this application embodiment charges the electronic device 30 such as a mobile phone, it eliminates the charging connection cable between the USB interface or cigarette lighter interface and the electronic device 30 in the conventional technology, thereby avoiding the safety hazards caused by the quality problems of the charging connection cable and other accessories.
[0088] In addition, by fixing the electronic device 30 to the air outlet 10 of the terminal for charging, the heat of the electronic device 30 can be carried away by the cold air at the air outlet 10 during charging, thereby extending the service life of the electronic device 30.
[0089] It should be noted that the electronic device 30 in this embodiment may simply be fixed to the air outlet 10 without being charged. Fixing the electronic device 30 to the air outlet 10 serves to dissipate heat from the electronic device 20.
[0090] This application specifically uses the air outlet 10 as an air conditioning outlet as an example to describe the specific structure of the terminal and the specific position of the electronic device 30 on the terminal when it is charging.
[0091] Understandably, when the terminal is a vehicle, fixing the electronic device 30 to the vehicle's air conditioning vent for charging also makes it convenient for the driver to operate the electronic device 30 at any time.
[0092] Continue to refer to Figure 1 As shown, the air conditioner vent has multiple spaced grilles 11, wherein each grille 11 extends along the length of the air conditioner vent (refer to...). Figure 1 Extending in the x-direction (as shown), multiple grilles 11 extend along the width direction of the air conditioning vent (refer to...). Figure 1 (As shown in the y-direction) Interval settings.
[0093] In this embodiment, the first charging element 20 is located on the grille 11. This not only ensures the stability of the first charging element 20 at the air outlet 10, but also allows the electronic device 30 to be stably fixed at the air conditioner outlet for charging. At the same time, the cold air from the air conditioner outlet can carry away the heat from the electronic device 30 in time, extending the service life of the electronic device 30. In addition, it also allows the air conditioner outlet of the terminal to be effectively utilized.
[0094] Continue to refer to Figure 1 As shown in the embodiment of this application, the first charging element 20 may include a first charging coil 21, which is disposed on a portion of the air outlet 10, as shown in the figure. Figure 2 As shown, the second charging element 31 includes a second charging coil 311 that matches the first charging coil 21. The second charging coil 311 is used to couple with the first charging coil 21 when the electronic device 30 is fixed at the air outlet 10 to charge the electronic device 30.
[0095] For example, a first charging coil 21 is set on the air conditioning vent of the vehicle. The first charging coil 21 is specifically set on the grille 11 of the air conditioning vent. A second charging coil 311 is set on the back of the electronic device 30, such as a mobile phone. When the mobile phone is fixed on the grille 11 of the air conditioning vent, the second charging coil 311 on the back of the mobile phone is coupled with the first charging coil 21 on the grille 11 to complete the charging of the mobile phone.
[0096] The working principle of charging the phone by coupling the second charging coil 311 on the back of the phone with the first charging coil 21 on the grille 11 is as follows:
[0097] When powered on, a circular current is generated on the first charging coil 21, which generates a magnetic field. Under the influence of the magnetic field, the second charging coil 311 generates an induced current, that is, an induced current is generated inside the mobile phone, thereby charging the mobile phone.
[0098] It is understandable that the charging process in which the first charging coil 21 and the second charging coil 311 are coupled is a wireless charging process. The specific wireless charging principle can be directly referred to in traditional technology, and will not be explained in detail here.
[0099] The terminal's charging device also includes a power supply component, such as a printed circuit board (not shown in the figure), which supplies power to the first charging coil 21 to generate current in the first charging coil 21. The power supply component, such as the printed circuit board, can be located inside or beside the air conditioner vent; this embodiment does not restrict the location of the power supply component.
[0100] Reference Figure 1 As shown, in a specific implementation, one or more first charging coils 21 can be set on a portion of the grille 11 of the air conditioner vent. For example, 3, 4 or 5 first charging coils 21 can be set at intervals on the grille 11 located in the middle area of the air conditioner vent. This way, while ensuring that the mobile phone or other electronic device 30 is fixed in the middle area of the air conditioner vent, the mobile phone or other electronic device 30 can be charged through the first charging coils 21, while reducing the number of first charging coils 21 set, thereby saving the setting cost of the charging equipment.
[0101] For example, on multiple grilles 11 spaced apart along the y-direction, a suitable number of first charging coils 21, such as 3, 4 or 5, are spaced apart on the second grille 11 from the top to the second to the bottom. In this way, when the mobile phone is fixed on the air conditioner vent, the mobile phone can be charged through any one or more of the first charging coils 21 on the second grille 11 from the top to the second to the bottom.
[0102] Specifically, when the mobile phone is fixed on the air conditioner vent, one or more first charging coils 21 (e.g., two first charging coils 21) near the second charging coil 311 on the back of the mobile phone can be coupled to the second charging coil 311 at the same time to form multiple induced currents on the second charging coil 311, thereby charging the electronic device 30.
[0103] Of course, in other examples, one or more first charging coils 21 can be provided on each grille 11 of the air conditioner vent. For example, three, four or five first charging coils 21 can be provided at intervals along the extension direction on each grille 11 so that when the mobile phone or other electronic device 30 is fixed at the air conditioner vent, the second charging coil 311 of the mobile phone or other electronic device 30 can be coupled with any one or more first charging coils 21 to ensure that the electronic device 30 can be stably charged at the air conditioner vent.
[0104] It should be noted that all the first charging coils 21 can share a single power supply component, such as a printed circuit board. That is, the printed circuit board can be electrically connected to all the first charging coils 21 located at the air conditioner vent, thereby simplifying the structure of the terminal's charging device. When the mobile phone or other electronic device 30 is fixed at the air conditioner vent, the printed circuit board can simultaneously supply power to all the first charging coils 21, and can also supply power to one or more of the first charging coils 21 (e.g., two first charging coils 21) located near the second charging coil 311 on the back of the electronic device 30.
[0105] In this embodiment, the first charging element 20 is set as a first charging coil 21 located on the air outlet 10, and the second charging element 31 of the electronic device 30 is set as a second charging coil 311 that matches the first charging coil 21. In this way, when the electronic device 30 is fixed at the air outlet 10, the first charging coil 21 and the second charging coil 311 can be coupled together to realize the wireless charging process of the terminal's charging device for the electronic device 30. This not only ensures that the internal environment of the terminal is clean and tidy during charging, but also simplifies the structure of the charging device and the charging process, and improves the convenience of the terminal's charging device for the electronic device 30.
[0106] In this embodiment, the first charging coil 21 can be attached to the outer end face of the grille 11 to simplify the assembly process. For example, the first charging coil 21 can be directly bonded to the outer end face of the grille 11. The outer end face of the grille 11 refers to the end of the grille 11 facing the interior space of the vehicle or other terminal; that is, the outer end face of the grille 11 is positioned away from the inner cavity of the air conditioning vent. When the electronic device 30 is specifically fixed to the grille 11 for charging, the outer end face of the grille 11 faces the back of the electronic device 30.
[0107] In some examples, a mounting cavity may be formed within the grille 11 of the air conditioning vent, and the first charging coil 21 may be embedded within the mounting cavity.
[0108] This embodiment of the application provides an installation cavity within the grille 11 of the air conditioning outlet and places the first charging coil 21 of the first charging element 20 within the installation cavity. This improves the stability of the first charging coil 21 on the grille 11 and also prevents the first charging coil 21 from being exposed to the outer end face of the grille 11 and being contaminated by the external environment, thus avoiding damage to the first charging coil 21.
[0109] In addition, by embedding the first charging coil 21 in the mounting cavity of the grille 11, the outer end face structure of the grille 11 is not affected, which facilitates the setting of the first adsorption layer 12 or the first magnetic element 13 mentioned below, and also improves the stability of the mobile phone and other electronic devices 30 on the grille 11.
[0110] Reference Figure 1 As shown, in order to achieve a stable connection between the electronic device 30 and the grille 11 of the air conditioner vent, at least some of the grilles 11 in this embodiment may have at least one first adsorption layer 12. The first adsorption layer 12 is used to adsorb the electronic device 30 so that the electronic device 30 is fixed on the air outlet 10. The extending direction of the first adsorption layer 12 is consistent with the extending direction of the grille 11.
[0111] Figure 4 yes Figure 3 Side view, Figure 5 yes Figure 4 A magnified view of section I in the middle. (Refer to...) Figures 1 to 5 As shown, for example, at least a portion of the grille 11 has a first adsorption layer 12, and at least a portion of the back of the phone has a second adsorption layer 32. The opposing surfaces of the first adsorption layer 12 and the second adsorption layer 32 have multiple pits, and the first adsorption layer 12 and the second adsorption layer 32 are adsorbed to each other under the action of frictional resistance.
[0112] For ease of description, in this embodiment, the pits on the surface of the first adsorption layer 12 are referred to as first pits 122, and the pits on the surface of the second adsorption layer 32 are referred to as second pits 321. When the first adsorption layer 12 and the second adsorption layer 32 come into frictional contact, the protrusions between adjacent first pits 122 are inserted into the second pits 321, and the protrusions between adjacent second pits 321 are inserted into the first pits 122, thereby fixing the first adsorption layer 12 to the surface of the second adsorption layer 32.
[0113] Figure 6This is a second structural schematic diagram of the back of the electronic device provided in an embodiment of this application. (Refer to...) Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, the second adsorption layer 12 can be configured in at least two ways. (Refer to...) Figure 2 As shown, the first configuration method is as follows: the second adsorption layer 32 can be provided in all areas of the back of the electronic device 30. For example, the second adsorption layer 32 can be provided in all areas of the back of a mobile phone, wherein the second adsorption layer 32 can be an adsorption layer additionally provided on the back of the mobile phone. In other examples, the back of the mobile phone can be made of an adsorption material that is consistent with the composition of the second adsorption layer 32.
[0114] Reference Figure 6 As shown, the second configuration involves: multiple second adsorption layers 32 are spaced apart on the back of the electronic device 30, such as a mobile phone, wherein the extension direction of each second adsorption layer 32 is parallel to the length direction of the mobile phone (see reference). Figure 6 (As shown in the x-direction) , multiple second adsorption layers 32 are aligned along the width direction of the phone (refer to...) Figure 6 As shown in the y-direction, multiple second adsorption layers 32 are spaced apart and corresponding to the first adsorption layers 12 on the multiple grilles 11 of the air conditioner vent. In this way, by fixing the multiple second adsorption layers 32 to the corresponding first adsorption layers 12, the mobile phone can be stably fixed to the grilles 11 of the air conditioner vent.
[0115] For example, three second adsorption layers 32 are provided on the back of the phone, with the three second adsorption layers 32 extending along the width direction of the phone (see reference). Figure 6 (As shown in the y-direction) The three second adsorption layers 32 are set at intervals, and each of the three grilles 11 is set to correspond one-to-one with a first adsorption layer 12 on each of the three grilles. In this way, the three second adsorption layers 32 are adsorbed onto the corresponding first adsorption layer 12, so that the mobile phone is stably fixed on the three grilles of the air conditioner vent.
[0116] For example, the vertical distance between two adjacent second adsorption layers 32 can be equal to the vertical distance between two adjacent first adsorption layers 12 on two adjacent grilles 11, so that the three second adsorption layers 32 are respectively set to correspond to the first adsorption layers 12 on the three consecutive grilles 11 on the air conditioner outlet.
[0117] In the above example, the materials of the first adsorption layer 12 and the second adsorption layer 32 are not limited, as long as the surfaces of the first adsorption layer 12 and the second adsorption layer 32 can form a rough surface with multiple pits. For example, the constituent materials of the first adsorption layer 12 and the second adsorption layer 32 include any one or more of plastic, silicone, rubber, polypropylene, and ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer.
[0118] In this embodiment, a second adsorption layer 32 is provided on at least a portion of the back of the electronic device 30, and the opposing surfaces of the first adsorption layer 12 and the second adsorption layer 32 are set as rough surfaces with multiple pits. In this way, when the electronic device 30 is placed on the grille 11 of the air outlet 10, the frictional resistance between the first adsorption layer 12 and the second adsorption layer 32 can stably fix the electronic device 30 on the first adsorption layer 12 of the grille 11. This not only simplifies the fixing structure of the electronic device 30 on the air outlet 10 of the terminal, but also makes it easier to fix the electronic device 30 on the grille 11 of the air outlet 10.
[0119] In addition, the above-mentioned fixing method allows the electronic device 30, such as a mobile phone, to rotate as needed to adjust the fixed angle, thereby meeting the charging or usage requirements.
[0120] Figure 7 This is a schematic diagram of a second structural design of the air outlet in the terminal provided in this application embodiment. (Refer to...) Figure 7 As shown, in some examples, the first adsorption layer 12 can be a soft adhesive layer, and at least one groove 121 is formed on the first adsorption layer 12, with the back of the electronic device 30 adsorbed at the opening of the groove 121. It should be noted that in this example, the electronic device 30, such as a mobile phone, does not have a second adsorption layer 32.
[0121] In this embodiment, the first adsorption layer 12 is set as a soft adhesive layer, and a groove 121 is provided on the first adsorption layer 12. In this way, when the electronic device 30 is pressed onto the first adsorption layer 12, the air between the electronic device 30 and the first adsorption layer 12 can be discharged through the groove 121. Thus, the external air pressure can stably adsorb the electronic device 30 onto the first adsorption layer 12, thereby improving the stability of the electronic device 30 at the air outlet 10.
[0122] The number of grooves 121 can be one or more. When a groove 121 is provided on each first adsorption layer 12, a portion of the back side of the electronic device 30 is adsorbed onto the corresponding first adsorption layer 12 through the groove 121.
[0123] Reference Figure 7 As shown, when multiple grooves 121 are provided on each first adsorption layer 12, the multiple grooves 121 are spaced apart along the extension direction of the first adsorption layer 12.
[0124] In this embodiment, multiple grooves 121 are spaced apart on the first adsorption layer 12. In this way, air between a portion of the back of the electronic device 30 and the corresponding first adsorption layer 12 can be discharged through the multiple grooves 121, thereby making the electronic device 30 stably adsorbed on the first adsorption layer 12 through the multiple grooves 121. This further improves the stability of the electronic device 30 at the air outlet 10, and thus ensures the stability of the cooperation between the electronic device 30 and the first charging element 20 on the grille 11 during charging.
[0125] In specific settings, the opening shape of the groove 121 can be any one of the following: circular, elliptical, and square.
[0126] In this example, the first adsorption layer 12 is composed of any one or more of silicone, rubber, polypropylene and ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer to improve the manufacturing flexibility of the first adsorption layer 12 while ensuring the adsorption effect on the electronic device 30.
[0127] It should be noted that in this embodiment of the application, the first adsorption layer 12 is a structural layer additionally provided on the grid 11. For example, a rubber layer can be bonded to the outer end face of the grid 11.
[0128] In other examples, at least some of the grilles 11 at the air conditioning vent may be made directly of an absorbent material that is the same as the material of the first absorbent layer. For example, some or all of the grilles 11 at the air conditioning vent may be made of one or more materials selected from silicone, rubber, polypropylene, and ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer.
[0129] This application embodiment provides a first adsorption layer 12 on at least a portion of the grille 11 to adsorb the electronic device 30 onto the grille 11 of the air outlet 10. While ensuring that the electronic device 30 is stably fixed at the air outlet 10, it simplifies the fixing structure of the electronic device 30 on the air outlet 10 of the terminal, thereby enabling the electronic device 30 to be conveniently and quickly fixed onto the grille 11 of the air outlet 10.
[0130] In addition, the first adsorption layer 12 does not need to take into account the specific structure of the air outlet 10 of the terminal, which makes the setting of the first adsorption layer 12 more convenient and flexible. At the same time, it also allows electronic devices 30, such as mobile phones, fixed on the air outlet 10 to rotate according to actual needs to adjust the fixed angle, thereby meeting the charging or usage needs.
[0131] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 7 As shown, in a specific configuration, a first adsorption layer 12 can be provided on a grid 11, for example, referring to... Figure 1As shown, a first adsorption layer 12 is provided on each of the grids 11 spaced apart along the y-direction. The first adsorption layer 12 can cover the entire outer end face of the grid 11 along the extension direction, or it can cover a portion of the outer end face of the grid 11.
[0132] In some examples, at least a portion of the grilles 11 may be provided with multiple first adsorption layers 12, which are spaced apart along the extension direction of the grilles 11. For example, each grille 11 spaced apart along the y-direction may have two or more first adsorption layers 12 (not shown in the figure), which are spaced apart along the extension direction of the grilles 11. This not only ensures that the electronic device 30 can be stably fixed on the grilles 11, but also expands the fixing range of the electronic device 30, allowing it to be fixed at different positions along the extension direction of the grilles 11. Thus, the fixing position of the electronic device 30 on the air outlet 10 can be adjusted according to the actual situation. For example, a suitable number of first adsorption layers 12, such as 4, 5, or 6, may be spaced apart on one or more grilles 11, so that the back of the electronic device 30, such as a mobile phone, can be fixed on any one or more first adsorption layers 12 of any grille 11.
[0133] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 7 As shown, in some examples, each grille 11 of the air conditioner vent may have a first adsorption layer 12. At the same time, a first charging element 20 is provided on at least some of the grilles 11. For example, one or more first adsorption layers 12 are provided on each grille 11. On each of the multiple grilles 11 spaced apart along the y direction, from the second grille 11 from the top to the second to last grille 11, a first or multiple first charging coils 21 are provided.
[0134] It is understood that the first charging coil 21 can be disposed on the first adsorption layer 12. For example, the first charging coil 21 is embedded inside the first adsorption layer 12 and is offset from the groove 121 on the first adsorption layer 12. In some examples, the first charging coil 21 can also be offset from the first adsorption layer 12 and disposed in the remaining area of the outer end face of the grille 11 or inside the grille 11.
[0135] This embodiment of the application improves the flexibility of the terminal's charging device by providing a first adsorption layer 12 on each grille 11, allowing the first charging element 20 to be disposed on any one or more grilles 11. It also allows the electronic device 30 to be fixed at any position on the air outlet 10.
[0136] Of course, this application embodiment does not exclude the arrangement of setting the first adsorption layer 12 on a part of the grille 11 of the air conditioner outlet, as long as it can ensure that the mobile phone and other electronic devices 30 can be fixed on the air conditioner outlet through the first adsorption layer 12.
[0137] Scene 2
[0138] Figure 8 This is a schematic diagram of the third structure of the air outlet in the terminal provided in this application embodiment. Figure 9 This is a third structural diagram of the back of the electronic device provided in the embodiments of this application. (Refer to...) Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, unlike scenario one, the electronic device 30 in this embodiment can be fixed to the grille 11 by magnetic action. For example, the back of the electronic device 30, such as a mobile phone, and the grille 11 at the air conditioner vent can both be made of magnetic material, so that the electronic device 30 can be fixed to the grille 11 at the air conditioner vent by magnetic action. In this way, while ensuring that the electronic device 30 is stably fixed at the air vent 10, the fixing structure of the electronic device 30 on the air vent 10 of the terminal is simplified, so that the electronic device 30 can be conveniently and quickly fixed to the grille 11 at the air vent 10.
[0139] The magnetic materials may include, but are not limited to, any one or more of Fe (iron), Co (cobalt), Ni (nickel) and their alloys, rare earth elements and their alloys, and compounds of Mn.
[0140] In addition, the electronic device 30 is fixed to the grille 11 by magnetic force, so that the electronic device 30 can rotate on the grille 11 as needed to adjust the fixed angle, thereby meeting the charging or use requirements.
[0141] Reference Figure 8 As shown, in some examples, a first magnetic element 13 may be provided on at least part of the outer end face of the grid 11, referring to... Figure 9 As shown, a second magnetic element 33 is provided on at least a portion of the back of the electronic device 30. The first magnetic element 13 and the second magnetic element 33 attract each other through magnetic action to fix the electronic device 30 on the grid 11.
[0142] This application embodiment provides a first magnetic element 13 on the outer end face of the grille 11 and a second magnetic element 33 on the back of the electronic device 30. This ensures the stability of the connection between the electronic device 30 and the grille 11 while simplifying the connection structure between the electronic device 30 and the grille 11, thereby improving the manufacturing efficiency of the terminal and the fixing efficiency of the electronic device 30.
[0143] The first magnetic element 13 and the second magnetic element 33 can both be magnets, making the arrangement structure of the first magnetic element 13 and the second magnetic element 33 simpler. For example, a magnet can be provided on the outer end face of each grille 11, and a magnet can also be provided on the back of the mobile phone or other electronic device 30. Through the mutual attraction between the magnets, the mobile phone or other electronic device 30 can be stably fixed on the grille 11 of the air conditioner vent.
[0144] Optionally, one of the first magnetic element 13 and the second magnetic element 33 can be a magnet, and the other of the first magnetic element 13 and the second magnetic element 33 can be a soft magnet. This allows for more flexibility in the arrangement of the first magnetic element 13 and the second magnetic element 33, and the structure is relatively simple. For example, a magnet can be provided on the outer end face of part of the grid 11, and a metal layer, such as an iron-silicon alloy layer, can be provided on the back of the electronic device 30, such as a mobile phone.
[0145] In this embodiment of the application, a first magnetic element 13 can be provided on the grille 11. For example, a first magnetic element 13 (not shown in the figure) can be provided on each grille 11 that is spaced apart in the width direction, i.e., the y direction, of the air conditioning outlet.
[0146] Reference Figure 8 As shown, in some examples, at least a portion of the grid 11 may be provided with a plurality of first magnetic elements 13, which are spaced apart along the extending direction of the grid 11. For example, see reference... Figure 8 As shown, each grille 11 spaced apart along the y-direction is provided with two or more first magnetic elements 13. The two or more first magnetic elements 13 are spaced apart along the extension direction of the grille 11. This not only ensures that the electronic device 30 can be stably fixed on the grille 11, but also expands the fixing range of the electronic device 30, so that the electronic device 30 can be fixed at different positions along the extension direction of the grille 11, thereby adjusting the fixing position of the electronic device 30 on the air outlet 10 according to the actual situation.
[0147] For example, a suitable number of first magnetic elements 13, such as 3, 4, 5, or 6, can be arranged at intervals on one or more of the grilles 11, so that the back of the mobile phone or other electronic device 30 can be fixed on any one or more of the first magnetic elements 13 on any grille 11.
[0148] The first charging coil 21, which is set on the grille 11, can be staggered from the first magnetic component 13 to avoid the magnetic field of the first magnetic component 13 interfering with the magnetic field generated by the first charging coil 21 and affecting the charging effect.
[0149] In this embodiment, the number of second magnetic elements 33 can be one. In a specific configuration, one second magnetic element 33 can completely cover the entire back surface of the mobile phone or other electronic device 30 (not shown in the figure), so that the mobile phone or other electronic device 30 can be magnetically fixed to the first magnetic element 13 on the grille 11. (Refer to...) Figure 9 As shown, a second magnetic element 33 can also cover a portion of the back of an electronic device 30 such as a mobile phone. Through the magnetic interaction between the second magnetic element 33 and one or more first magnetic elements 13, the electronic device 30 such as a mobile phone can be firmly fixed to the air conditioner vent.
[0150] Figure 10 This is a fourth structural diagram of the back of the electronic device provided in this application embodiment. (Refer to...) Figure 10 As shown, in some examples, multiple second magnetic elements 33 can also be spaced apart on a portion of the back of an electronic device 30, such as a mobile phone. These multiple second magnetic elements 33 correspond to multiple first magnetic elements 13 on the air conditioner vent. For example, see reference... Figure 10 As shown, six second magnetic elements 33 are spaced apart on the back of the phone. Each pair of second magnetic elements 33 forms a group, and the three groups of second magnetic elements 33 extend along the width of the phone (see reference). Figure 10 (As shown in the y-direction) The three sets of second magnetic elements 33 are arranged at intervals and correspond to the first magnetic elements 13 on the three grilles 11 respectively. At the same time, when multiple first magnetic elements 13 are arranged at intervals on each grille 11, two of the second magnetic elements 33 in each set correspond to any two first magnetic elements 13 on one of the grilles 11 respectively. In this way, through the magnetic interaction between the six second magnetic elements 33 and their respective first magnetic elements 13, the mobile phone and other electronic devices 30 are firmly fixed on the air conditioner vent.
[0151] For example, the vertical spacing between two adjacent sets of second magnetic elements 33 can be equal to the vertical distance between the first magnetic elements 13 on two adjacent grilles 11. At the same time, the horizontal spacing between two second magnetic elements 33 in each set is equal to the horizontal spacing between two adjacent first magnetic elements 13 on any grille 11. In this way, the six second magnetic elements 33 on the mobile phone are correspondingly set with the adjacent first magnetic elements 13 on any three consecutive grilles 11 of the air conditioner vent. Through the magnetic interaction between the six second magnetic elements 33 and their respective corresponding first magnetic elements 13, the mobile phone and other electronic devices 30 are firmly fixed on the air conditioner vent.
[0152] It is understandable that the vertical spacing between two adjacent groups of second magnetic elements 33 can be equal to the vertical distance between the first magnetic elements 13 on the first and third grilles 11 of the three consecutive grilles 11, and the horizontal spacing between two second magnetic elements 33 in each group can be equal to the horizontal spacing between the first and third first magnetic elements 13 of the three consecutive first magnetic elements 13 on any grille 11, as long as the six second magnetic elements 33 can be set to correspond with the six first magnetic elements 13 on the air conditioning vent.
[0153] It should be noted that the first grid 11 and the third grid 11 in the three consecutive grids 11 specifically refer to the first grid 11 and the third grid 11 counted from top to bottom along the y direction, or the first grid 11 and the third grid 11 counted from bottom to top along the y direction.
[0154] Scene 3
[0155] Figure 11 This is a schematic diagram of the fourth structure of the air outlet in the terminal provided in the embodiments of this application. Figure 12 This is a fifth structural diagram of the back of the electronic device provided in the embodiments of this application. Figure 13 This is a second assembly diagram of an electronic device fixed to the air outlet of a terminal provided in this application embodiment. (Refer to...) Figures 11 to 13 As shown, unlike the two scenarios above, the first charging element 20 in this embodiment includes a first charging contact 22, which is disposed on a portion of the air outlet 10. The second charging element 31 includes a second charging contact 312 that matches the first charging contact 22. The second charging contact 312 is used to make electrical contact with the first charging contact 22 when the electronic device 30 is fixed at the air outlet 10, so as to charge the electronic device 30.
[0156] For example, refer to Figure 11 As shown, a first charging contact 22 is provided on the air conditioning vent of the vehicle. Specifically, the first charging contact 22 is located on the grille 11 of the air conditioning vent. Figure 12 As shown, a second charging contact 312 is provided on the back of the mobile phone. When the mobile phone is fixed on the grille 11 of the air conditioner vent, the second charging contact 312 on the back of the mobile phone makes electrical contact with the first charging contact 22 on the grille 11, thus completing the charging process of the electronic device 30.
[0157] The principle of charging the electronic device 30 by making electrical contact between the second charging contact 312 on the back of the electronic device 30 and the first charging contact 22 on the grille 11 can be directly referred to the principle of charging contact in conventional technology, and will not be elaborated here.
[0158] It is understandable that the charging process of the first charging contact 22 and the second charging contact 312 in electrical contact does not require a charging connection cable, so that the terminal's charging device can charge the electronic device 30. This not only ensures that the internal environment of the terminal is clean and tidy during charging, but also simplifies the structure of the charging device and the charging process, and improves the charging efficiency of the terminal's charging device for the electronic device 30.
[0159] In addition, by setting the first charging element 20 as the first charging contact 22, it is also convenient to assemble the first charging element 20 on the air outlet 10, thereby improving the assembly efficiency of the charging device on the terminal.
[0160] In a specific implementation, one or more first charging contacts 22 can be provided on at least part of the grille 11 of the air conditioner vent. For example, 3, 4 or 5 first charging contacts 22 can be provided at intervals on the grille 11 located in the middle area of the air conditioner vent. This way, while ensuring that the electronic device 30 is fixed in the middle area of the air conditioner vent, the electronic device 30 can be charged through the first charging contacts 22, while reducing the number of first charging contacts 22 provided, thereby saving the installation cost of the charging device.
[0161] For example, along Figure 11 On the multiple grilles 11 spaced apart in the y-direction, three first charging contacts 22 are spaced apart on each of the second grille 11 from the top to the second to the bottom. In this way, when a mobile phone or other electronic device 30 is fixed on the air conditioner vent, the mobile phone or other electronic device 30 can be charged through any of the first charging contacts 22 on the second grille 11 from the top to the second to the bottom.
[0162] Of course, in other examples, one or more first charging contacts 22 (not shown in the figure) can be provided on each grille 11 of the air conditioner vent. For example, 3, 4 or 5 first charging contacts 22 can be provided at intervals along the extension direction on each grille 11 so that when the electronic device 30 such as a mobile phone is fixed at the air conditioner vent, the second charging contact 312 of the electronic device 30 can make electrical contact with any of the first charging contacts 22, so as to ensure that the electronic device 30 can be stably charged at the air conditioner vent.
[0163] Understandably, the first charging contact 22 disposed on any grille 11 is exposed on the surface of the grille 11 to ensure electrical contact with the second charging contact 312 on the back of the electronic device 30. Therefore, when the grille 11 has a first adsorption layer 12 or a first magnetic element 13, the first charging contact 22 can be disposed on the first adsorption layer 12 or the first magnetic element 13, and the charging end of the first charging contact 22 is exposed to the outside of the first adsorption layer 12 or the first magnetic element 13.
[0164] Of course, the first charging contact 22 can be offset from the first adsorption layer 12 or the first magnetic element 13. For example, the first charging contact 22 can be disposed on other areas of the grille 11 other than the first adsorption layer 12 or the first magnetic element 13.
[0165] Scene 4
[0166] Reference Figures 1 to 3 As shown, this application embodiment also provides an electronic device 30, which has a second charging element 31. The second charging element 31 is used to couple or make electrical contact with the first charging element 20 of the terminal when the electronic device 30 is fixed on the air outlet 10 of the terminal to charge the electronic device 30.
[0167] This embodiment of the application provides a second charging element 31 on the electronic device 30. When the electronic device 30 is fixed on the air outlet 10 of the terminal, the second charging element 31 can be coupled or electrically contacted with the first charging element 20 at the air outlet 10, so that the electronic device 30 can be charged uninterruptedly. Compared with the traditional charging structure, the electronic device 30 of this embodiment does not need to use a charging cable when charging on the terminal, thereby avoiding the situation of the internal environment of the terminal becoming messy when the electronic device 30 is charging on the terminal, and ensuring that the internal environment of the terminal is clean and tidy.
[0168] Meanwhile, the charging method of the electronic device 30 on the terminal in this application embodiment eliminates the charging connection cable between the USB interface or cigarette lighter interface and the electronic device 30 in the traditional technology, thereby avoiding the safety hazards caused by the quality problems of the charging connection cable and other accessories.
[0169] In addition, by fixing the electronic device 30 to the air outlet 10 of the terminal for charging, the heat of the electronic device 30 can be carried away by the cold air at the air outlet 10 during charging, thereby extending the service life of the electronic device 30.
[0170] The specific structure of the electronic device 30 can be directly referred to the content of the electronic device 30 described in Scenarios 1 to 3 above, and will not be repeated here.
[0171] In the description of the embodiments of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "linking" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, or the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in the embodiments of this application according to the specific circumstances.
[0172] The terms "first," "second," "third," "fourth," etc. (if present) in the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of this application are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence.
