[0056] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of this application more clear, this application is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0057] Traditional decorative parts are generally installed on the housing of electronic devices. After the decorative parts are installed on the housing of the electronic device, the decorative parts cannot move or rotate relative to the housing. In addition to meeting conventional protection requirements and aesthetic requirements, users will feel that the decorative parts are not interactive when using the electronic device.
[0058] In view of this, an embodiment of the present application provides a housing assembly for an electronic device, which can improve the above-mentioned technical problems.
[0059] The electronic device provided in the embodiments of the present application can be a mobile phone, tablet computer, laptop computer, wearable device (such as a watch), in-vehicle device, etc., but is not limited thereto. Other electronic devices that require decorative parts can also use the housing assembly provided in the embodiments of the present application. In the embodiments of the present application, the electronic device is a mobile phone as an example for description.
[0060] Example 1:
[0061] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , Figure 1 This is a three-dimensional assembly diagram of the housing assembly 100 provided in the first embodiment of the present application. Figure 2 for Figure 1 The exploded perspective view of the housing assembly 100 is shown. In a first aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides a housing assembly 100 comprising a housing 10 and a decorative member 20. The decorative member 20 comprises a first decorative member 21 and a second decorative member 22 arranged sequentially along a first direction. The first decorative member 21 is connected to the housing 10, and the second decorative member 22 is sleeved on the first decorative member 21, and the second decorative member 22 is rotatable relative to the first decorative member 21.
[0062] It is understood that the first decorative piece 21 can be connected to the housing 10 by bonding, snapping, welding, or fastener connection. The first fastener can be a screw, bolt, or snap. The housing 10 is the component of the electronic device that encloses components such as the battery, camera, and motherboard. For example, the housing 10 may include a middle frame and a cover plate 13. The first decorative piece 21 can be connected to one or both of the middle frame and the cover plate 13. In this embodiment, the first decorative piece 21 is connected to the cover plate 13.
[0063] The decorative member 20 can be made of a friction-resistant, self-lubricating plastic material or a metal material. Specifically, the decorative member 20 is made of one of polyoxymethylene, nylon, aluminum alloy, and stainless steel. For example, the first decorative member 21 and the second decorative member 22 can both be made of polyoxymethylene; alternatively, the first decorative member 21 and the second decorative member 22 can both be made of aluminum alloy; alternatively, the first decorative member 21 can be made of nylon and the second decorative member 22 can be made of stainless steel.
[0064] The material of the decorative element 20 can be a friction-resistant, self-lubricating plastic material or a metal material. The material of the housing 10 is one of polyoxymethylene, nylon, aluminum alloy, stainless steel and glass.
[0065] It can also be understood that the first decorative piece 21 can be fixedly connected to the shell 10, and when the second decorative piece 22 is rotated relative to the first decorative piece 21, the first decorative piece 21 can not move or rotate relative to the shell 10; or, the first decorative piece 21 can be rotatably connected to the shell 10, and when the second decorative piece 22 is rotated relative to the first decorative piece 21, the first decorative piece 21 can rotate relative to the shell 10.
[0066] Among them, a through hole can be set on the shell 10, and the first decorative piece 21 can be rotatably mounted in the through hole so that the first decorative piece 21 can be rotatably connected to the shell 10; or, one, two or more bearings are set between the shell 10 and the first decorative piece 21, and the first decorative piece 21 is passed through the inner ring of the bearing, and the shell 10 is mounted on the outer ring of the bearing, so that the shell 10 and the first decorative piece 21 can be rotatably connected.
[0067] It should be noted that the first decorative member 21 can be roughly annular, cylindrical, or truncated cone-shaped, and the second decorative member 22 can be shaped, but not limited to, annular, cylindrical, rectangular, or cube-shaped. Since the second decorative member 22 is sleeved on the first decorative member 21, the second decorative member 22 can be prevented from moving relative to the first decorative member 21 in a direction perpendicular to the first direction (such as the X direction in the figure).
[0068] It should also be noted that since the second decorative piece 22 is mounted on the first decorative piece 21, when using the electronic device, the user can move the second decorative piece 22 by touching the surface of the second decorative piece 22 away from the first decorative piece 21, so that the second decorative piece 22 rotates relative to the first decorative piece 21, thereby increasing the interactivity and playability of the decorative piece 20.
[0069] Please refer to Figure 5 , Figure 5 for Figure 1 The top view of the housing assembly 100 is shown in FIG. Specifically, the first direction can be Figure 1 and Figure 2 In the Z direction, the rotation axis of the second decorative member 22 relative to the first decorative member 21 is parallel to the first direction.
[0070] Among them, the second decorative piece 22 can only rotate relative to the first decorative piece 21 along the direction of the hollow arrow h (clockwise direction); or, the second decorative piece 22 can only rotate relative to the first decorative piece 21 along the direction of the hollow arrow k (counterclockwise direction); or, the second decorative piece 22 can rotate relative to the first decorative piece 21 along the direction of the hollow arrow h (clockwise direction), and the second decorative piece 22 can also rotate relative to the first decorative piece 21 along the direction of the hollow arrow k (counterclockwise direction).
[0071] Among them, the second decorative part 22 can be rotated relative to the first decorative part 21 by setting a bearing, that is, one, two or more bearings are set between the first decorative part 21 and the second decorative part 22, and the first decorative part 21 is passed through the inner ring of the bearing, and the second decorative part 22 is sleeved on the outer ring of the bearing, so that the second decorative part 22 and the first decorative part 21 can be rotatably connected.
[0072] Alternatively, a hole can be provided in the second decorative piece 22 , and the first decorative piece 21 can be passed through the hole in the second decorative piece 22 and fit in the hole in the second decorative piece 22 , so as to realize the rotational connection between the second decorative piece 22 and the first decorative piece 21 .
[0073] It is understandable that other methods that can enable the second decorative member 22 to rotate relative to the first decorative member 21 can also be applied to the embodiments of the present application.
[0074] From the above, it can be seen that the shell assembly 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application, since the decorative part 20 includes a first decorative part 21 and a second decorative part 22 arranged in sequence along a first direction, the first decorative part 21 is connected to the shell 10, and the second decorative part 22 is mounted on the first decorative part 21, and the second decorative part 22 can be rotated relative to the first decorative part 21, so when the user uses the electronic device with the shell assembly 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application, the user can rotate the second decorative part 22 relative to the first decorative part 21 by turning the second decorative part 22, thereby increasing the interactivity of the decorative part 20, and thus improving the user experience of the electronic device to a certain extent.
[0075] The housing assembly 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application can increase the interactivity of the decorative component 20, highlight the design concept and selling point of the electronic device, and provide the electronic device with more flexible design and competitive appearance.
[0076] Please refer to Figure 3 、 Figure 6 and Figure 7As a way of connecting the shell 10 with the first decorative piece 21, in this embodiment, the shell 10 is provided with an installation space 11 and a installation hole 12, and the decorative piece 20 is passed through the installation hole 12; the first decorative piece 21 is connected to a first flange 211, and the first flange 211 protrudes from the second decorative piece 22 in a second direction, and the second direction is perpendicular to the first direction. The first flange 211 is located in the installation space 11, and the first flange 211 is connected to the shell 10.
[0077] It is understandable that components such as batteries, cameras, motherboards, CUPs (Central Processing Units), and heat sinks of electronic devices can be arranged in the installation space 11. The decorative part 20 is inserted into the installation hole 12, and the first decorative part 21 is inserted into the installation hole 12, and the second decorative part 22 is not inserted into the installation hole 12; or, the first decorative part 21 and the second decorative part 22 are both inserted into the installation hole 12. The second direction is parallel to the X direction in the figure, such as the second direction is the radial direction of the first decorative part 21 and the second direction is the direction away from the axis of the first decorative part 21. The first flange 211 can be connected to the housing 10 by bonding, clamping, welding, or connecting with a second fastener. The second fastener can be a screw, a bolt, or a snap.
[0078] By adopting the above solution, the housing 10 and the first decorative component 21 can be connected more conveniently.
[0079] It should be noted that the first decorative part 21 and the first flange 211 can be integrally formed, such as integral injection molding or integral machine processing (a suitable processing scheme can be selected according to the materials of the two), or the first flange 211 is connected to the first decorative part 21 by bonding, clamping, welding or connection with a third fastener, and the third fastener can be a screw, bolt or snap fastener.
[0080] Optionally, the first flange 211 and the inner wall of the installation space 11 (such as Figure 7 Such a configuration can connect the first flange 211 to the housing 10 while limiting relative movement between the first decorative member 21 and the housing 10 in a direction parallel to the first direction.
[0081] When connecting the first decorative piece 21 to the shell 10, one end of the first decorative piece 21 can be passed through the mounting hole 12 along a first direction (such as the Z direction in the figure), and then the first flange 211 can be connected to the inner wall of the mounting space 11.
[0082] The first flange 211 and the inner wall of the installation space 11 can be connected by bonding, clamping, welding or a fourth fastener, and the fourth fastener can be a screw, a bolt or a buckle.
[0083] In this embodiment, the first flange 211 is bonded to the inner wall of the installation space 11 by an adhesive 14. The adhesive 14 can be double-sided adhesive, light-curing adhesive, heat-curing adhesive, or the like.
[0084] It should be noted that the first flange 211 can be continuously distributed along the circumference of the first decorative member 21. With this arrangement, after the first flange 211 and the inner wall of the installation space 11 are bonded together by the adhesive 14, the adhesive 14 can isolate the installation space 11 and the installation hole 12. In other words, after the first flange 211 and the inner wall of the installation space 11 are bonded together by the adhesive 14, the installation space 11 and the installation hole 12 are no longer connected, thereby isolating the installation space 11 from the external space of the housing 10, thereby ensuring that the housing 10 has better sealing performance at the installation hole 12.
[0085] In order to better limit the position of the second decorative piece 22 and prevent the second decorative piece 22 from moving relative to the first decorative piece 21 in a direction parallel to the first direction, optionally, the second decorative piece 22 is passed through the mounting hole 12, and the second decorative piece 22 is clearance-matched with the mounting hole 12, one end of the second decorative piece 22 is a limiting end 221, and the limiting end 221 is in slidable contact with the first flange 211, the second decorative piece 22 is connected to the second flange 222, the second flange 222 is located in the mounting space 11, and the second flange 222 is in contact with the inner wall of the mounting space 11 (such as Figure 7 With this arrangement, the limiting end 221 can slidably contact the first flange 211 to limit relative movement of the second decorative member 22 with the first decorative member 21 in the first direction. Furthermore, the second flange 222 can slidably contact the inner wall of the installation space 11 to limit relative movement of the second decorative member 22 with the first decorative member 21 in a direction opposite to the first direction, thereby preventing relative movement of the second decorative member 22 with the first decorative member 21 in a direction parallel to the first direction.
[0086] It can be understood that the second decorative piece 22 is loosely fitted with the mounting hole 12, that is, the second decorative piece 22 can rotate in the mounting hole 12, and the second decorative piece 22 does not contact the inner hole wall of the mounting hole 12, or the second decorative piece 22 can slidably contact the inner hole wall of the mounting hole 12.
[0087] It should be noted that the second decorative part 22 and the second flange 222 can be formed as one piece, such as integral injection molding or integral machine processing (a suitable processing scheme can be selected according to the materials of the two), or the second flange 222 is connected to the second decorative part 22 by bonding, clamping, welding or connecting with a fifth fastener, and the fifth fastener can be a screw, bolt or snap fastener.
[0088] Optionally, the first decorative member 21 is provided with a slide groove 212, which is recessed on the surface of the first flange 211 (eg Figure 7 The limiting end 221 extends into the slide groove 212 and slidably contacts the bottom surface of the slide groove 212. This arrangement limits the position of the second decorative member 22 relative to the first decorative member 21, preventing the second decorative member 22 from moving relative to the first decorative member 21 in a direction parallel to the first direction.
[0089] The limiting end 221 is in slidable contact with the side wall of the slide groove 212. This configuration can better limit the relative position of the first decorative member 21 and the second decorative member 22 in a direction parallel to the second direction, thereby preventing the first decorative member 21 and the second decorative member 22 from moving relative to each other in a direction parallel to the second direction.
[0090] Optionally, the second flange 222 is provided at the limiting end 221, and the second flange 222 is in slidable contact with the bottom surface of the chute 212. With this arrangement, when processing the first decorative member 21, only the position and shape accuracy of the second flange 222 need to be ensured.
[0091] It can be understood that the second flange 222 is in slidable contact with the side wall of the sliding groove 212 .
[0092] In this embodiment, the second decorative element 22 is away from the end of the first decorative element 21 (eg Figure 7 The upper end of the second decorative member 22 is provided with a avoidance hole 225, and one end of the first decorative member 21 (such as Figure 7 The upper end of the first decorative member 21 is located in the avoidance hole 225.
[0093] Since one end of the first decorative member 21 is located in the avoidance hole 225, when the decorative member 20 is observed in the direction opposite to the first direction (eg Figure 5 When the first decorative piece 21 and the second decorative piece 22 are viewed from a different perspective, a first gap (not shown in the figure) formed between the first decorative piece 21 and the second decorative piece 22 and extending in a direction opposite to the first direction is deeper. Dust and other impurities are easily deposited in the first gap. A large amount of impurities will affect the rotation of the second decorative piece 22 relative to the first decorative piece 21.
[0094] Therefore, in order to solve the above problems, optionally, the second decorative piece 22 is connected to a third flange 223, and the third flange 223 protrudes from the first decorative piece 21 in a third direction, the third direction is perpendicular to the first direction, and the third flange 223 defines a avoidance hole 225. The first decorative piece 21 is provided with a receiving groove 213, and the third flange 223 is located in the receiving groove 213.
[0095] Such a configuration can form a second gap (not shown in the figure) extending in a direction opposite to the first direction between the third flange 223 and the first decorative piece 21, and at this time, a third gap (not shown in the figure) extending in a direction opposite to the first direction and a fourth gap (not shown in the figure) extending in the second direction are formed between the remaining part of the second decorative piece 22 and the first decorative piece 21. Since the second gap and the third gap are at a certain distance in the second direction, only a small amount of dust can fall into the second gap, thereby avoiding a large amount of impurities in the gap formed between the first decorative piece 21 and the second decorative piece 22, which affects the rotation of the second decorative piece 22 relative to the first decorative piece 21.
[0096] It should be noted that the third direction is parallel to the X direction in the figure, for example, the third direction is the radial direction of the first decorative component 21 and the third direction is the direction close to the axis of the first decorative component 21 .
[0097] The second decorative part 22 and the third flange 223 can be integrally formed, such as integral injection molding or integral machine processing (a suitable processing scheme can be selected according to the materials of the two), or the third flange 223 is connected to the second decorative part 22 by bonding, clamping, welding or connection with a sixth fastener, and the sixth fastener can be a screw, bolt or snap fastener.
[0098] Please refer to Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 4 In order to further increase the interactivity of the decorative piece 20, optionally, the decorative piece 20 includes a friction structure, the friction structure including a first matching portion 214 and a second matching portion 224, the first matching portion 214 is provided on one of the first decorative piece 21 and the second decorative piece 22, and the second matching portion 224 is provided on the other of the first decorative piece 21 and the second decorative piece 22, the first matching portion 214 and the second matching portion 224 are evenly and spaced apart in the rotation direction of the second decorative piece 22 relative to the first decorative piece 21, and rotating the second decorative piece 22 relative to the first decorative piece 21 can make the first matching portion 214 and the second matching portion 224 match.
[0099] By adopting the above-mentioned scheme, the first matching portion 214 and the second matching portion 224 can be matched with each other when the second decorative piece 22 is rotated relative to the first decorative piece 21, thereby making a sound, and then the decorative piece 20 can make a sound when the second decorative piece 22 is rotated relative to the first decorative piece 21, thereby further increasing the interactivity of the decorative piece 20.
[0100] It is understandable that by reasonably setting the materials and fitting tolerances of the first fitting part 214 and the second fitting part 224, the first fitting part 214 and the second fitting part 224 can emit a mechanical sound similar to the rotation of gears when they are matched, so as to better increase the interactivity and usage experience of the decorative part 20.
[0101] The first and second mating portions 214, 224 are both configured as protrusions, or one of the first and second mating portions 214, 224 is configured as a recess, while the other of the first and second mating portions 214, 224 is configured as a protrusion. One, two, or more first and second mating portions 214, 224 may be provided.
[0102] It should be noted that the protrusions may be blocks or columns, and the recesses may be holes or grooves.
[0103] In this embodiment, the first matching portion 214 and the second matching portion 224 are both configured as protrusions. The first matching portion 214 is provided on a side of the first decorative element 21 that is parallel to the second direction and faces the second decorative element 22 (e.g., Figure 7 The second matching portion 224 is provided on a side of the second decorative member 22 that is parallel to the second direction and faces the first decorative member 21 (eg Figure 7 the right side of the second decorative member 22).
[0104] The protrusion may be a semi-cylinder or a quarter-cylinder, and the axis of the semi-cylinder or the quarter-cylinder is parallel to the first direction.
[0105] Specifically, the first decorative part 21 and the first matching part 214 can be integrally formed, such as integral injection molding or integral machine processing (a suitable processing scheme can be selected according to the materials of the two), or the first matching part 214 is connected to the first decorative part 21 by bonding, clamping, welding or connecting with other fasteners, and the seventh fastener can be a screw, bolt or snap fastener.
[0106] Specifically, the second decorative part 22 and the second matching part 224 can be integrally formed, such as integral injection molding or integral machine processing (a suitable processing scheme can be selected according to the materials of the two), or the second matching part 224 is connected to the second decorative part 22 by bonding, clamping, welding or connection with a seventh fastener, and the seventh fastener can be a screw, bolt or snap fastener.
[0107] It can be understood that in other embodiments, the first matching portion 214 is set as a protrusion, the second matching portion 224 is set as a recess, the first matching portion 214 is connected to the first decorative piece 21, and the second matching portion 224 is set on the second decorative piece 22; or, the first matching portion 214 is set as a recess, the second matching portion 224 is set as a protrusion, the first matching portion 214 is provided on the first decorative piece 21, and the second matching portion 224 is connected to the second decorative piece 22.
[0108] Optionally, in order to reduce the friction between the first matching portion 214 and the second matching portion 224 , the contact surfaces of the first matching portion 214 and the second matching portion 224 are both configured as arc surfaces.
[0109] Optionally, the second decorative piece 22 is provided with a first identification portion (not shown in the figure), and the first identification portion is located on the surface of the second decorative piece 22 away from the first decorative piece 21; the number of the second matching portions 224 is at least two, and all the second matching portions 224 are evenly and spaced apart in the rotation direction of the second decorative piece 22 relative to the first decorative piece 21. Rotating the second decorative piece 22 relative to the first decorative piece 21 can make the first matching portion 214 match with the two adjacent second matching portions 224 in sequence.
[0110] With this arrangement, the function of angle measurement can be achieved by observing the position change of the first identification portion when the first matching portion 214 is matched with the adjacent second matching portion 224 in sequence.
[0111] For example, first, the first identification part is located in the initial position, and then the second decorative piece 22 is rotated relative to the first decorative piece 21. When the first matching part 214 is matched with one of the second matching parts 224, the first identification part is aligned with the first reference point of the object to be measured, and then the second decorative piece 22 is rotated relative to the first decorative piece 21. When the first identification part is aligned with the second reference point of the object to be measured, the number of the first matching part 214 matching with the second matching parts 224 (the number of sounds emitted) is recorded, and the angle between the first reference point and the second reference point of the object to be measured can be calculated.
[0112] It should be noted that the first identification portion may be a printed text or symbol, or the first identification portion may be a groove or a protrusion.
[0113] It can be understood that since the distance between two adjacent second matching parts 224 is preset, when the first matching part 214 is matched with the two adjacent second matching parts 224 in sequence, the angle of rotation of the second decorative part 22 relative to the first decorative part 21 is also certain. By multiplying this angle by the total number of second matching parts 224 that match with the first matching part 214, the angle between the first reference point and the second reference point of the object to be measured can be calculated.
[0114] For example, the total number of the second matching parts 224 is 20. When the first matching part 214 matches with two adjacent second matching parts 224 in sequence, the preset angle of rotation of the second decorative part 22 relative to the first decorative part 21 is 18 degrees. If the first identification part is aligned with the second reference point of the object to be measured, it is recorded that the first matching part 214 matches with 3 second matching parts 224 in total (3 sounds are emitted), then the angle between the first reference point and the second reference point of the object to be measured is 18 degrees * 3 = 54 degrees.
[0115] For another example, the total number of the second matching parts 224 is 30. When the first matching part 214 matches with two adjacent second matching parts 224 in sequence, the preset angle of rotation of the second decorative part 22 relative to the first decorative part 21 is 12 degrees. If the first identification part is aligned with the second reference point of the object to be measured, it is recorded that the first matching part 214 matches with a total of 8 second matching parts 224 (8 sounds are emitted), then the angle between the first reference point and the second reference point of the object to be measured is 12 degrees * 8 = 96 degrees.
[0116] For another example, the total number of the second matching parts 224 is 10. When the first matching part 214 matches with the two adjacent second matching parts 224 in sequence, the preset angle of rotation of the second decorative part 22 relative to the first decorative part 21 is 36 degrees. If the first identification part is aligned with the second reference point of the object to be measured, it is recorded that the first matching part 214 matches with 1 second matching part 224 in total (1 sound is emitted), then the angle between the first reference point and the second reference point of the object to be measured is 36 degrees * 1 = 36 degrees.
[0117] Optionally, in order to further enrich the function of the decorative part 20, the second decorative part 22 is provided with a second identification portion (not shown in the figure), and the second identification portion is located on the surface of the second decorative part 22 away from the first decorative part 21. The shell assembly 100 includes a spring assembly (not shown in the figure), which is connected to the second decorative part 22, and the spring assembly is used to drive the second decorative part 22 to rotate at a uniform speed relative to the first decorative part 21.
[0118] With such an arrangement, when the second decorative element 22 rotates relative to the first decorative element 21 , the purpose of timing can be achieved by observing the initial position and the end position of the second identification portion.
[0119] It should be noted that the second identification portion may be a printed text or symbol, or the second identification portion may be a groove or a protrusion.
[0120] It should also be noted that the clockwork assembly is a component made of an elastic material (such as metal) that stores energy and releases energy when needed to rotate the second decorative member 22. For example, in a clockwork, the clockwork assembly can store energy and drive the hands to rotate to maintain accurate time. The clockwork assembly may include a torsion spring and a rack, etc.
[0121] In which, the clockwork assembly can be connected to the control device of the electronic device, so that the clockwork assembly can be started through the control device when the clockwork assembly is needed to drive the second decorative part 22 to rotate at a constant speed relative to the first decorative part 21, and the clockwork assembly can be turned off through the control device when the clockwork assembly is not needed to drive the second decorative part 22 to rotate at a constant speed relative to the first decorative part 21.
[0122] It can be understood that since the clockwork assembly drives the second decorative piece 22 to rotate at a constant speed relative to the first decorative piece 21, the time it takes for the second identification part to follow the second decorative piece 22 to rotate at a constant speed relative to the first decorative piece 21 is also certain. Therefore, the total time can be obtained by recording the number of circles that the second identification part follows the second decorative piece 22 to rotate at a constant speed relative to the first decorative piece 21.
[0123] It can also be understood that the time it takes for the second identification portion to follow the second decorative piece 22 to rotate at a constant speed relative to the first decorative piece 21 can be adjusted by adjusting the rotation speed of the second decorative piece 22 through the clockwork assembly, that is, the time it takes for the second identification portion to follow the second decorative piece 22 to rotate at a constant speed relative to the first decorative piece 21 can be a preset time.
[0124] For example, the preset time for the second identification portion to follow the second decorative piece 22 to rotate uniformly relative to the first decorative piece 21 is 10s. During the timing time, the second identification portion follows the second decorative piece 22 to rotate uniformly relative to the first decorative piece 21 for 5 circles, so the total time is 10s*10=100s.
[0125] For another example, the preset time for the second identification portion to follow the second decorative piece 22 to rotate at a constant speed relative to the first decorative piece 21 is 15s. During the timing time, the second identification portion follows the second decorative piece 22 to rotate at a constant speed relative to the first decorative piece 21 for 3 circles, so the total time is 15s*3=45s.
[0126] For another example, the preset time for the second identification portion to follow the second decorative piece 22 to rotate uniformly relative to the first decorative piece 21 is 6s. During the timing time, the number of circles in which the second identification portion follows the second decorative piece 22 to rotate uniformly relative to the first decorative piece 21 is 8, so the total time is 6s*8=48s.
[0127] In some timing scenarios, the required timing time may not be an integer multiple of the number of revolutions of the second identification portion following the second decorative element 22 relative to the first decorative element 21 at a uniform speed, and thus the time cannot be accurately measured.
[0128] To address the above-mentioned problem, the housing assembly 100 optionally includes a third identification portion (not shown in the figure). The third identification portion is provided on the housing 10 or the first decorative member 21. At least two third identification portions are provided, and all third identification portions are evenly and spaced apart along the rotation direction of the second decorative member 22 relative to the first decorative member 21. The third identification portion cooperates with the second identification portion. When the second identification portion rotates at a constant speed relative to the first decorative member 21 following the second decorative member 22, the second identification portion sequentially cooperates with different third identification portions. This arrangement can more accurately record the number of revolutions that the second identification portion rotates at a constant speed relative to the first decorative member 21 following the second decorative member 22, thereby enabling more accurate timing.
[0129] It can be understood that the third identification portion matches the second identification portion, that is, the third identification portion is in contact with or aligned with the second identification portion.
[0130] It should be noted that the third identification portion may be a printed text or symbol, or the third identification portion may be a groove or a protrusion.
[0131] For example, the preset time for the second identification portion to follow the second decorative part 22 to rotate one circle at a uniform speed relative to the first decorative part 21 is 10s, and the total number of third identification portions is 10. When the second identification portion is coordinated with two adjacent third identification portions in sequence, the preset angle of rotation of the second decorative part 22 relative to the first decorative part 21 is 36 degrees. During the timing time, the second identification portion is coordinated with 4 third identification portions in common, and the total time is 10s / 10*4=4s.
[0132] For another example, the preset time for the second identification portion to follow the second decorative part 22 to rotate one circle at a uniform speed relative to the first decorative part 21 is 18s, and the total number of third identification portions is 20. When the second identification portion is coordinated with two adjacent third identification portions in sequence, the preset angle of rotation of the second decorative part 22 relative to the first decorative part 21 is 18 degrees. During the timing time, the second identification portion is coordinated with 6 third identification portions in total, and the total time is 18s / 20*6=5.4s.
[0133] For another example, the preset time for the second identification portion to follow the second decorative part 22 to rotate one circle at a uniform speed relative to the first decorative part 21 is 4s, and the total number of third identification portions is 8. When the second identification portion is coordinated with two adjacent third identification portions in sequence, the preset angle of rotation of the second decorative part 22 relative to the first decorative part 21 is 45 degrees. During the timing time, the second identification portion is coordinated with 3 third identification portions together, and the total time is 4s / 8*3=3.0s.

[0137] By adopting the above-mentioned scheme, the first matching portion 214 and the second matching portion 224 can be matched with each other when the second decorative piece 22 is rotated relative to the first decorative piece 21, thereby making a sound, and then the decorative piece 20 can make a sound when the second decorative piece 22 is rotated relative to the first decorative piece 21, thereby further increasing the interactivity of the decorative piece 20.
