Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of electronic product technology, specifically relating to a button structure and an electronic device. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, the resistance of traditional rotary buttons is usually generated by setting a button spring. Since the magnitude of the spring force is fixed, the resistance of the rotary button cannot be adjusted, thus failing to meet users' needs for different rotary resistance. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The present invention aims to provide a button structure and electronic device that can at least solve the problem that the resistance of rotary buttons cannot be adjusted in the prior art.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention is implemented as follows:

[0005] In a first aspect, embodiments of the present invention provide a button structure, comprising: a housing having a mounting cavity; a button body disposed on the housing, with a portion of the button body located within the mounting cavity; a trigger component movably disposed on the button body, a portion of the trigger component extending into the mounting cavity, the trigger component being switchable between a first state and a second state; an adjusting member connected to the trigger component and located within the mounting cavity; and an abutting component disposed within the mounting cavity, the abutting component being connected to the button body, the button body being capable of driving the abutting component to rotate relative to the adjusting member.

[0006] In the first state, the trigger component is separated from the button body; in the second state, the trigger component can be connected to the button body. When the button body rotates, the button body drives the adjusting member to move through the trigger component, thereby adjusting the contact position between the abutting component and the adjusting member.

[0007] Secondly, an electronic device is provided, including the button structure described in the above embodiments.

[0008] In this embodiment of the invention, by setting a trigger component and an abutment component, when the resistance of the button body needs to be adjusted, the trigger component can be switched from a first state to a second state by pressing the trigger component. During the process of switching from the first state to the second state, the trigger component can be connected to the button body, and when the button body rotates, the trigger component drives the adjustment component to move, adjusting the abutment position between the abutment component and the adjustment component, thereby realizing the resistance adjustment of the button structure. This makes it convenient for users to rotate the button body according to the adjusted resistance, meeting the user's needs for different rotation resistance.

[0032] The following is in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Figures 1 to 7 The button structure 100 provided in the embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail through specific implementation methods and application scenarios.

[0033] See Figures 1 to 7 According to an embodiment of the present invention, the button structure 100 includes a housing 10, a button body 30, a trigger component 40, an adjusting component 43, and a contact component 50. Wherein, for example... Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a mounting cavity 11 is provided on the housing 10, and the button body 30 is disposed on the housing 10, with a portion of the button body 30 located within the mounting cavity 11. A trigger assembly 40 is movably disposed on the button body 30, with a portion of the trigger assembly 40 extending into the mounting cavity 11. The trigger assembly 40 can switch between a first state and a second state. An adjusting member 43 is connected to the trigger assembly 40 and is located within the mounting cavity 11. An abutting assembly 50 is disposed within the mounting cavity 11 and is connected to the button body 30. The button body 30 can drive the abutting assembly 50 to rotate relative to the adjusting member 43. When the resistance of the button body 30 needs to be adjusted, the trigger assembly 40 can be switched from the first state to the second state by pressing it.

[0034] In the first state, the trigger component 40 is separated from the button body 30. In the second state, the trigger component 40 can be connected to the button body 30. When the button body 30 rotates, it drives the adjusting member 43 to move via the trigger component 40, thereby adjusting the contact position between the abutting component 50 and the adjusting member 43. During the transition from the first state to the second state, the trigger component 40 can be connected to the button body 30. When the button body 30 rotates, the trigger component 40 drives the adjusting member 43 to move, adjusting the contact position between the abutting component 50 and the adjusting member 43. This allows for resistance adjustment of the button structure 100, enabling the user to rotate the button body 30 according to the adjusted resistance, thus meeting the user's needs for different rotational resistance.

[0035] According to one embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the trigger assembly 40 includes an adjustment button 41 and a first elastic member 42. Specifically, the adjustment button 41 is switchable between a first state and a second state. The first elastic member 42 is located on the side of the adjustment button 41 facing the housing 10. An adjustment member 43 is movably connected to the adjustment button 41, and the first elastic member 42 is located between the adjustment button 41 and the adjustment member 43. When the adjustment button 41 is in the first state, the first elastic member 42 is in an extended state, and the adjustment button 41 is separated from the button body 30. When the adjustment button 41 is in the second state, the first elastic member 42 is in a deformed state, and the adjustment button 41 can be connected to the button body 30.

[0036] In other words, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 Users can switch between a first state and a second state by pressing the adjustment button 41. A first elastic element 42 is located on the side of the adjustment button 41 facing the housing 10. The first elastic element 42 can be a spring. An adjustment element 43 is movably connected to the adjustment button 41. The first elastic element 42 is located between the adjustment button 41 and the adjustment element 43. When the adjustment button 41 is in the first state, the first elastic element 42 is in an extended state, and the adjustment button 41 is separated from the button body 30. When the adjustment button 41 is in the second state, the first elastic element 42 is in a deformed state, generating elastic force, and the adjustment button 41 can connect to the button body 30, allowing the user to rotate the button body 30 according to the adjusted resistance, meeting the user's needs for different rotational resistance.

[0037] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, the button body 30 is a cylindrical body, and a first mounting groove 31 extending axially is formed within the button body 30. A boss 32 is provided on the inner wall of the first mounting groove 31, and a first slot 33 is provided on the boss 32. An adjustment button 41 is disposed within the first mounting groove 31 and is provided with a first latch 411. When the adjustment button 41 is in a first state, the first latch 411 separates from the first slot 33, and the adjustment button 41 disengages from the button body 30. When the adjustment button 41 is in a second state and has moved to a target position, the first latch 411 engages with the first slot 33, and the adjustment button 41 engages with the button body 30. When the button body 30 rotates, the button body 30 drives the adjustment member 43 to move via the adjustment button 41.

[0038] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the button body 30 can be configured with a cylindrical structure. A first mounting groove 31 extending axially through the button body 30 is formed within it. A boss 32 is provided on the inner wall of the first mounting groove 31, and a first slot 33 is provided on the boss 32. The adjustment button 41 is disposed within the first mounting groove 31. (See also...) Figure 2 and Figure 3 A first latch 411 is provided on the side of the adjustment button 41 facing the housing 10. When the adjustment button 41 is in the first state, the first latch 411 can separate from the first slot 33, at which point the adjustment button 41 is disengaged from the button body 30. When the adjustment button 41 is in the second state and has moved to the target position, the first latch 411 can engage with the first slot 33, and the adjustment button 41 engages with the button body 30. At this time, rotating the button body 30 allows the adjustment member 43 to move via the adjustment button 41, thereby adjusting the resistance of the button structure 100. When it needs to be reset, pressing the adjustment button 41 again will reset the adjustment button 41 under the action of the first elastic member 42.

[0039] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the adjustment button 41 is provided with a second mounting groove 412, the second mounting groove 412 is provided with a mounting post 413, the first elastic member 42 is provided in the second mounting groove 412 and is sleeved on the mounting post 413, the adjustment member 43 is movably connected to the groove wall of the second mounting groove 412, and the first elastic member 42 extends toward the adjustment member 43.

[0040] See Figure 2 and Figure 4 The adjustment button 41 has a second mounting groove 412, and a mounting post 413 is provided within the second mounting groove 412. A first elastic element 42 is disposed within the second mounting groove 412 and is sleeved on the mounting post 413. The adjustment element 43 can be movably connected to the groove wall of the second mounting groove 412. The position of the adjustment element 43 corresponds to that of the second mounting groove 412, and the first elastic element 42 extends toward the adjustment element 43. The first elastic element 42 can provide elastic force for the adjustment button 41 and the adjustment element 43, which facilitates the switching of the force adjustment button 41 between the first and second states.

[0041] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, the inner wall of the second mounting groove 412 is provided with a second slot 414, and the end of the adjusting member 43 facing the first elastic member 42 is provided with a second buckle 432. The second buckle 432 is engaged in the second slot 414. The second buckle 432 and the second slot 414 are movable in the first direction, and the second buckle 432 and the second slot 414 are engaged in the second direction. The first direction is the switching direction of the adjusting button 41 between the first state and the second state, and the second direction is the rotation direction of the button body 30.

[0042] like Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, the inner wall of the second mounting groove 412 is provided with a second slot 414, and the end of the adjusting member 43 facing the first elastic member 42 is provided with a second buckle 432. The second buckle 432 and the second slot 414 are movable in the switching direction of the adjusting button 41 between the first state and the second state, and the second buckle 432 and the second slot 414 can be engaged in the rotation direction of the button body 30 to realize the resistance adjustment of the button structure 100.

[0043] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, the adjusting member 43 is provided with an adjusting surface 431, and the adjusting member 43 contacts the abutting component 50. The radial dimension of the adjusting surface 431 gradually decreases in the direction away from the adjusting button 41. When the triggering component 40 is in the second state, the triggering component 40 can be connected to the button body 30. When the button body 30 rotates, the button body 30 drives the adjusting member 43 to move through the triggering component 40, so as to adjust the abutting position between the abutting component 50 and the adjusting member 43, and adjust the abutting force between the abutting component 50 and the adjusting member 43.

[0044] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the adjusting member 43 is provided with an adjusting surface 431. The radial dimension of the adjusting surface 431 gradually decreases in the direction away from the adjusting button 41. The adjusting surface 431 can press against the abutting component 50. When the triggering component 40 is in the second state, the triggering component 40 can be connected to the button body 30. When the button body 30 rotates, the button body 30 can drive the adjusting member 43 to move through the triggering component 40, adjusting the abutting position between the abutting component 50 and the adjusting member 43, thereby adjusting the abutting force between the abutting component 50 and the adjusting member 43. When the user presses the adjusting button 41, the adjusting member 43 will extend further into the mounting cavity 11, so that the adjusting surface 431 with a larger radial dimension of the adjusting member 43 contacts and presses against the abutting component 50, thereby increasing the rotational resistance and realizing the resistance adjustment of the button structure 100.

[0045] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the abutment assembly 50 includes a second rotating bracket 51, a first resistance member 52, a second resistance member 53, and a second elastic member 54. The second rotating bracket 51 is disposed within the mounting cavity 11 and has at least one third mounting groove 511. The first resistance member 52 is disposed on the third mounting groove 511, with one end of the first resistance member 52 extending out of the third mounting groove 511 towards the adjusting member 43. The adjusting surface 431 of the adjusting member 43 contacts the first resistance member 52. The second resistance member 53 is disposed on the third mounting groove 511, with one end of the second resistance member 53 extending out of the third mounting groove 511 away from the adjusting member 43. The second elastic member 54 is disposed within the third mounting groove 511 and is located between the first resistance member 52 and the second resistance member 53.

[0046] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the second rotating bracket 51 is disposed within the mounting hole 22, and at least one third mounting groove 511 is provided on the second rotating bracket 51. A first resistance member 52 is disposed on the third mounting groove 511, with one end of the first resistance member 52 extending out of the third mounting groove 511 towards the adjusting member 43. The adjusting surface 431 of the adjusting member 43 can contact the first resistance member 52. A second resistance member 53 is disposed on the third mounting groove 511, with one end of the second resistance member 53 extending out of the third mounting groove 511 away from the adjusting member 43. The second resistance member 53 contacts the inner wall of the first rotating bracket 20. The second elastic member 54 can be a spring, and the second elastic member 54 is disposed within the third mounting groove 511, located between the first resistance member 52 and the second resistance member 53.

[0047] When the user needs to adjust the resistance of the button structure 100, they lightly press the adjustment button 41 and then rotate the button body 30. When the adjustment button 41 and the button body 30 are engaged, the adjustment button 41 drives the adjustment component 43 to rotate. The adjustment surface 431 of the adjustment component 43 pushes the first resistance component 52 to compress or relax the second elastic component 54 (see...). Figure 5 and Figure 6 The thrust change of the second elastic element 54 is transmitted to the second resistance element 53. When the second elastic element 54 is compressed or released, the second resistance element 53 will increase or decrease the thrust on the first rotating bracket 20. The first rotating bracket 20 is fixed to the button body 30 by a snap-fit ​​connection, thereby increasing or decreasing the damping of the button body 30. After the torque adjustment is completed, the adjustment button 41 can be reset by the first elastic element 42, thereby realizing the adjustment of the entire rotational resistance of the button structure 100.

[0048] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the first resistance member 52 includes a first sheet-like body 521 and a first resistance post 522. The first sheet-like body 521 is disposed on the side of the third mounting groove 511 near the adjusting member 43. The first resistance post 522 is connected to the first sheet-like body 521, with its first end located within the third mounting groove 511. A second elastic member 54 is disposed on the first end of the first resistance post 522, and the second end of the first resistance post 522 extends out of the third mounting groove 511. The adjusting surface 431 contacts the second end of the first resistance post 522.

[0049] like Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the first resistance element 52 mainly consists of a first sheet-like body 521 and a first resistance column 522. The first sheet-like body 521 is located on the side of the third mounting groove 511 near the adjusting member 43. The first resistance column 522 is connected to the first sheet-like body 521, with its first end located within the third mounting groove 511. A second elastic element 54 is located on the first end of the first resistance column 522, and the second end of the first resistance column 522 extends out of the third mounting groove 511. The adjusting surface 431 contacts the second end of the first resistance column 522. The first and second ends of the first resistance column 522 are its two ends along its length. During the pressing of the adjusting button 41, the adjusting surfaces 431 of different radial dimensions of the adjusting member 43 can be pushed to compress the first resistance column 522. The compressive force is transmitted to the first rotating bracket 20 through the second elastic element 54 and the second resistance element 53, and finally to the button body 30, thus achieving resistance adjustment.

[0050] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, the second resistance member 53 includes a second sheet-like body 531 and a second resistance post 532, wherein the second sheet-like body 531 is disposed on the side of the third mounting groove 511 away from the adjusting member 43. The second resistance post 532 is connected to the second sheet-like body 531, extends out of the third mounting groove 511, and the second elastic member 54 contacts the second sheet-like body 531.

[0051] See Figure 6 and Figure 7 The second resistance member 53 includes a second sheet-like body 531 and a second resistance post 532. The second sheet-like body 531 is disposed on the side of the third mounting groove 511 away from the adjusting member 43. The second resistance post 532 is connected to the second sheet-like body, extends out of the third mounting groove 511, and abuts against the inner wall of the first rotating bracket 20. The second elastic member 54 contacts the second sheet-like body 531. Through the contraction or expansion of the second elastic member 54, elastic force can be transmitted to the second resistance post 532, and then to the first rotating bracket 20 and the button body 30.

[0052] In this invention, such as Figure 6As shown, there are multiple third mounting slots 511, which are evenly distributed around the circumference of the second rotating bracket 51. Each third mounting slot 511 is provided with a first resistance element 52, a second resistance element 53, and a second elastic element 54. By evenly distributing the third mounting slots 511 around the circumference of the second rotating bracket 51, and arranging a first resistance element 52, a second resistance element 53, and a second elastic element 54 in each third mounting slot 511, it can be ensured that the adjustment surface 431 of the adjusting member 43 is in contact with the multiple first resistance elements 52. This makes the force on the adjusting member 43 more uniform during its movement, and the rotation of the button body 30 is smoother, without any jamming or other phenomena.

[0053] Optionally, such as Figure 6 As shown, there can be three third mounting slots 511. The first resistance members 52 on two adjacent mounting slots form a 120° angle, which makes the force on the adjustment member 43 more balanced, and makes the rotation of the button body 30 smoother and lighter.

[0054] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the button structure 100 further includes a first rotating bracket 20, which is rotatably disposed within the mounting cavity 11. The button body 30 is connected to the first rotating bracket 20, an adjusting member 43 passes through the first rotating bracket 20, and an abutting component 50 is disposed within and connected to the first rotating bracket 20. The button body 30 can drive the abutting component 50 and the first rotating bracket 20 to rotate.

[0055] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the first rotating bracket 20 can be configured as a columnar bracket, and the first rotating bracket 20 is provided with a mounting hole 22 extending along its axial direction, through which the adjusting member 43 passes. When the user presses the trigger component 40, the adjusting member 43 moves along the axial direction of the first rotating bracket 20 toward the abutting component 50, and the larger radial portion of the adjusting surface 431 further presses against the abutting component 50, increasing the rotational resistance of the button structure 100. See also Figure 3 At this time, the adjustment button 41 is not connected to the button body 30. Rotating the button body 30, when the first latch 411 of the adjustment button 41 engages with the first slot 33 of the button body 30, the adjustment button 41, the button body 30, and the adjustment component 43 can rotate synchronously, realizing the resistance adjustment of the button structure 100. When it is necessary to restore, press the adjustment button 41 again, and the adjustment button 41 can be reset under the action of the first elastic element 42.

[0056] In this invention, see Figure 1 and Figure 2A third slot 34 is provided on the side of the button body 30 facing the first rotating bracket 20, and a third buckle 21 is provided on the first rotating bracket 20. The third slot 34 and the third buckle 21 are engaged. The button body 30 and the first rotating bracket 20 can be engaged through the third buckle 21 and the third slot 34, which improves the assembly efficiency of the button body 30 and the first rotating bracket 20.

[0057] According to one embodiment of the present invention, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The button structure 100 further includes: an adjustment bracket 60, which has a threaded hole 61 extending along its thickness direction; an adjustment member 43 has a threaded surface 433, which is spaced apart from the adjustment member 43 and faces the adjustment bracket 60. The threaded surface 433 of the adjustment member 43 can extend into the threaded hole 61 of the adjustment bracket 60 to engage with the threaded hole 61. When the trigger component 40 is in the second state, it can be connected to the button body 30. When the button body 30 rotates, it can drive the adjustment member 43 to rotate via the trigger component 40. The threaded surface of the adjustment member 43 rotates along the threaded hole, causing the adjustment member 43 to move away from the button body 30, thereby adjusting the contact position between the abutting component 50 and the adjustment member 43. By providing the adjustment bracket 60, this invention can enclose the abutting component 50 and other structures within the mounting cavity 11 of the housing 10, ensuring a more complete button structure 100.

[0058] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, a first connecting post 12 is provided on the side of the housing 10 facing away from the first rotating bracket 20, and a mating post 62 is provided on the side of the adjusting bracket 60 facing the housing 10. The first connecting post 12 and the mating post 62 are connected by screws 80, thereby improving the assembly efficiency of the adjusting bracket 60 and the housing 10.

[0059] According to one embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the button structure 100 also includes a functional component 70. The functional component 70 can adopt a circuit board structure with certain functions. The functional component 70 is located on the side of the adjustment bracket 60 facing away from the abutting assembly 50. A second connecting post 71 is provided on the functional component 70. A connecting hole 434 is provided on the end of the adjustment component 43 facing the adjustment bracket 60. The connecting hole 434 is connected to the second connecting post 71. When the button body 30 rotates, the adjustment component 43 rotates, thereby driving the functional component 70 to rotate synchronously. When the functional component 70 rotates at different angles, different functions can be realized.

[0060] In summary, according to the button structure 100 of the present invention, by providing a trigger component 40 and an abutment component 50, when the resistance of the button body 30 needs to be adjusted, the trigger component 40 can be switched from a first state to a second state by pressing it. During the switching process, the trigger component 40 presses against the abutment component 50, thereby adjusting the resistance of the button structure 100. At this time, the trigger component 40 is connected to the button body 30, and the user can rotate the button body 30 according to the adjusted resistance to meet the user's needs for different rotational resistance.
