Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of electronic device technology, and more particularly to a housing structure and an electronic pen. Background Technology

[0002] Electronic pen devices such as dictionary pens, translation pens, reading pens, and scanning pens are portable digital tools for language lookup. They use scanning technology to scan and recognize text content, and then use the built-in dictionary and translation software of the electronic pen device to realize the corresponding functions such as text parsing, translation, and reading.

[0003] Taking a dictionary pen as an example, the shell of a dictionary pen is a long and narrow structure, which makes it easy for users to hold and use. However, the long and narrow structure of a dictionary pen takes up a lot of space when not in use, making it inconvenient to carry. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the aforementioned shortcomings in the prior art, this invention provides an electronic pen housing structure and an electronic pen that can be folded and stored when not in use, improving portability.

[0005] To address the aforementioned technical problems, in a first aspect, the present invention provides a housing structure for an electronic pen, the electronic pen comprising a main unit and a pen body rotatably connected to the main unit, the housing structure comprising:

[0006] The main unit housing includes a support frame, a cover, and a buffer member wrapped around the outside of the support frame. The support frame has a first mounting surface and a second mounting surface facing away from each other. The first mounting surface is used to mount a display screen. The cover is mounted on the second mounting surface. The cover is recessed towards the first mounting surface to form a storage groove. The storage groove is used to store the pen body. The buffer member is integrally formed with the support frame.

[0007] In one possible implementation, the buffer is a soft rubber buffer.

[0008] In one possible implementation, a mounting port is provided on the second mounting surface;

[0009] The cover is disposed within the mounting opening, and the edge of the cover overlaps the edge of the mounting opening.

[0010] In one possible implementation, the support frame includes a first frame edge for rotatable connection with the pen body, and the first frame edge is a metal frame edge.

[0011] In one possible implementation, the supporting frame, except for the first frame edge, has rigid plastic frame edges.

[0012] In one possible implementation, the metal frame edge and the rigid plastic frame edge are integrally formed by a die-casting injection molding process.

[0013] In one possible implementation, the portion of the metal frame edge used to connect with the hard plastic frame edge is provided with a first adhesive-pull hole and / or a first adhesive-pull auxiliary protrusion.

[0014] In one possible implementation, the support frame is made of metal or hard plastic, and the support frame and the buffer are integrally formed by injection molding.

[0015] In one possible implementation, the portion of the support frame used to connect with the buffer is provided with a second adhesive-pulling hole and / or a second adhesive-pulling auxiliary protrusion.

[0016] In one possible implementation, the cover is made of plastic, and a reinforcing sheet is provided on the side of the second mounting surface facing the first mounting surface, the strength of the reinforcing sheet being greater than the strength of the cover.

[0017] In one possible implementation, the reinforcing sheet is provided with a plurality of heat dissipation holes arranged in an array.

[0018] In one possible implementation, the cover is integrally formed with the support frame.

[0019] In one possible implementation, the buffer includes:

[0020] A wrapping part, which wraps around the side wall of the support frame;

[0021] A cover portion that covers the second mounting surface outside the storage slot.

[0022] In one possible implementation, the wrapping portion and the covering portion are separately disposed, or the wrapping portion and the covering portion are integrally formed.

[0023] In one possible implementation, a portion of the wrapping part wraps around the side wall of the support frame, and another portion wraps around the perimeter of the first mounting surface and the second mounting surface, respectively. The covering part covers the second mounting surface between the storage slot and the wrapping part.

[0024] In one possible implementation, both the support frame and the cover are made of metal.

[0025] In one possible implementation, the edge of the cover is provided with abutment protrusions.

[0026] In one possible implementation, the bottom of the storage slot is provided with buffer bumps.

[0027] In one possible implementation, the outer casing structure further includes a pen body casing, which is rotatably connected to the main unit housing. When the pen body casing rotates toward the main unit housing, the pen body casing can be stored in the storage slot.

[0028] Secondly, the present invention also provides an electronic pen, comprising:

[0029] The outer shell structure described in any of the first aspects;

[0030] A display screen is mounted on the first mounting surface.

[0031] In one possible implementation, the side surface of the cover facing the first mounting surface is a first surface, the first surface is used to bond with the display screen, the edge of the first surface is provided with a connecting groove, the support frame is provided with an extension, the extension extends into the connecting groove and has a first adhesive gap between it and the inner wall of the connecting groove.

[0032] The second mounting surface has an installation opening, and the cover has a flange at the opening of the storage groove. The flange overlaps the edge of the mounting opening, and there is a second adhesive gap between the flange and the edge of the mounting opening. The second adhesive gap is larger than the first adhesive gap.

[0033] Compared with the prior art, this application has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0034] In the application, since the cover is recessed towards the first mounting surface to form a storage groove, and the pen body is rotatably connected to the host, the pen body can be stored in the storage groove when it rotates relative to the host. In this way, the pen body can be stored in the storage groove when the electronic pen is not in use, thereby avoiding the problem of inconvenience in carrying the electronic pen due to its long length.

[0035] In addition, since a buffer is wrapped around the outside of the support frame and the buffer is integrally formed with the support frame, the buffer can protect the support frame. Therefore, when the main unit casing is dropped or collided, the buffer can buffer the impact force on the support frame, thereby extending the service life of the main unit casing.

[0036] Furthermore, compared to related technologies that involve detachably covering the main unit casing with a protective cover to protect the main unit casing during the use of the electronic pen, on the one hand, there is no need to purchase an additional protective cover, reducing the cost of using the electronic pen; on the other hand, the detachable protective cover cannot ensure a tight fit between the main unit casing and the protective cover, thus affecting the protective effect of the protective cover on the main unit casing.

[0064] The present application will be described in detail below through specific embodiments:

[0065] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 This application provides a shell structure 100 for an electronic pen 200. The electronic pen 200 includes a main unit 210 and a pen body 220 rotatably connected to the main unit 210. The shell structure 100 includes a main unit housing 110, wherein the main unit housing 110 includes a support frame 111, a cover 112, and a buffer 113 wrapped around the outside of the support frame 111. The support frame 111 has a first mounting surface 1111 and a second mounting surface 1112 facing away from each other. The first mounting surface 1111 is used to mount a display screen 230. The cover 112 is mounted on the second mounting surface 1112. The cover 112 is recessed toward the first mounting surface 1111 to form a storage groove 1121, which is used to store the pen body 220. The buffer 113 is integrally formed with the support frame 111.

[0066] The first mounting surface 1111 and the second mounting surface 1112 are arranged along the thickness direction of the main housing 110.

[0067] In this embodiment, since the cover 112 is recessed towards the first mounting surface 1111 to form a storage groove 1121, and the pen body 220 is rotatably connected to the host 210, the pen body 220 can be stored in the storage groove 1121 when it rotates relative to the host 210. In this way, the pen body 220 can be stored in the storage groove 1121 when the electronic pen 200 is not in use, thereby avoiding the problem of the electronic pen 200 being inconvenient to carry due to its long length.

[0068] In addition, since the support frame 111 is wrapped with a buffer 113 on the outside and the buffer 113 is integrally formed with the support frame 111, the buffer 113 can protect the support frame 111. Thus, when the main unit housing 110 is dropped or collided, the buffer 113 can buffer the impact force on the support frame 111, thereby extending the service life of the main unit housing 110.

[0069] Furthermore, compared to the related technologies that detachably cover the main body housing 110 to protect the main body housing 110 during the use of the electronic pen 200, on the one hand, there is no need to purchase an additional protective cover, reducing the cost of using the electronic pen 200; on the other hand, the detachable protective cover cannot make the main body housing and the protective cover fit tightly together, thus affecting the protective effect of the protective cover on the main body housing.

[0070] It should be noted that the main unit housing 110 is used in the foldable electronic pen 200, which can be a dictionary pen, translation pen, reading pen, scanning pen, etc.

[0071] In addition, the buffer 113 and the support frame 111 are integrally formed. It should be understood that the buffer 113 and the support frame 111 are integrally formed by injection molding, or the buffer 113 and the support frame 111 are integrally formed by adhesive bonding.

[0072] Furthermore, there are no requirements regarding the material of the buffer 113. For example, the material of the buffer 113 can be a hard or soft rubber with relatively low hardness. In this embodiment, soft rubber is mainly used as an example for illustration.

[0073] In some possible embodiments, the buffer 113 is a soft rubber buffer 113.

[0074] The soft adhesive can be a series of soft adhesives such as thermoplastic polyurethane rubber, thermoplastic elastomer, and polyester rubber. In this embodiment, thermoplastic polyurethane rubber is preferred because it has good material properties and low cost.

[0075] Because soft rubber has advantages such as good elasticity, high strength, high toughness, wear resistance, and oil resistance, when the buffer 113 is a soft rubber buffer 113, it can not only ensure the protective function of the buffer 113 on the support frame 111, but also improve the service life of the main unit housing 110.

[0076] In some possible embodiments, see Figure 3 and Figure 4 The second mounting surface 1112 has a mounting opening 1113; the cover 112 is disposed in the mounting opening 1113, and the edge of the cover 112 overlaps the edge of the mounting opening 1113.

[0077] Since the edge of the cover 112 overlaps with the edge of the mounting port 1113, the connection area between the second mounting surface 1112 and the cover 112 is increased, thereby improving the stability of the installation between the cover 112 and the second mounting surface 1112. At the same time, it also provides a seal between the mounting port 1113 and the cover 112, thereby reducing the risk of dust entering the main unit housing 110.

[0078] Additionally, it should be noted that the cover 112 is fixedly connected to the edge of the mounting port 1113, for example, by adhesive bonding or by integral molding.

[0079] In some possible embodiments, see Figure 5 The support frame 111 includes a first frame edge, which is used to rotatably connect with the pen body 220. The first frame edge is a metal frame edge 111a.

[0080] Because of the high strength and rigidity of metal, when the first frame edge is a metal frame edge 111a and the first frame edge is rotatably connected to the pen body 220 (that is, the first frame edge is rotatably connected to the pen body shell 120), the strength of the rotatable connection between the first frame edge and the pen body 220 can be improved. This avoids the situation where the connection structure between the first frame edge and the pen body 220 is easily damaged due to the weak strength of the first frame edge, thereby improving the service life of the electronic pen 200.

[0081] Additionally, it is worth noting that the metal material can be zinc alloy, aluminum alloy, stainless steel, etc. The metal frame 111a can be formed by metal die casting or liquid metal injection molding.

[0082] In some possible embodiments, see Figure 5 The supporting frame 111, except for the first frame edge, has hard plastic frame edges 111b.

[0083] Among them, the supporting frame 111, except for the first frame edge, has hard plastic frame edges 111b. It should be understood that if the supporting frame 111 is a rectangular frame, the first frame edge is the frame edge of one width side, then the remaining frame edges refer to the width side at the other width side and the frame edges at the two length sides.

[0084] In addition, the rigid plastic material can be one or a combination of two or more of PC (Polycarbonate), GF (Glass Fiber), ABS, and PPS. For example, rigid plastics can be PC+20%GF, PC+10%GF, PC+30%GF, PC, PC+ABS, ABS, PPS+10%~50%GF, PBT+10~50%GF, etc.

[0085] In some possible embodiments, the metal frame edge 111a and the hard plastic frame edge 111b are integrally formed by a die-casting injection molding process.

[0086] Since the overmolding process is a two-stage injection molding process, the metal frame edge 111a and the hard plastic frame edge 111b are integrally formed through the overmolding process. On the one hand, there is no need to add a connecting structure to the metal frame edge 111a and the hard plastic frame edge 111b, which simplifies the connection process between the metal frame edge 111a and the hard plastic frame edge 111b. On the other hand, it can make the connection between the metal frame edge 111a and the hard plastic frame edge 111b fit tightly, which improves the connection strength between the metal frame edge 111a and the hard plastic frame edge 111b.

[0087] In some possible embodiments, see Figure 5 and Figure 6 The metal frame edge 111a, which is used to connect with the hard plastic frame edge 111b, is provided with a first adhesive-pulling hole 1114 and / or a first adhesive-pulling auxiliary protrusion 1115.

[0088] Therefore, by providing the first adhesive-pulling hole 1114 and / or the first adhesive-pulling auxiliary protrusion 1115, the stability and strength of the connection between the metal frame edge 111a and the hard plastic frame edge 111b can be further improved.

[0089] The shape, size, and number of the first adhesive-pulling hole 1114 are not limited, and similarly, the shape, size, and number of the first adhesive-pulling auxiliary protrusion 1115 are not limited. Those skilled in the art can make corresponding designs according to actual needs.

[0090] For example, the first adhesive-pulling hole 1114 is a circular through hole and there are multiple such holes, which are arranged in an array.

[0091] Of course, for positions where the first adhesive hole 1114 and / or the first adhesive auxiliary protrusion 1115 are not provided, adhesive can be applied to improve the strength of the connection between the metal frame edge 111a and the hard plastic frame edge 111b.

[0092] In some possible embodiments, the support frame 111 is made of metal or hard plastic, and the support frame 111 and the buffer 113 are integrally formed by injection molding.

[0093] Specifically, after the hard plastic frame edge 111b and the metal frame edge 111a are integrally formed by injection molding, the buffer 113 is then integrally formed onto the support frame 111 using injection molding.

[0094] In this embodiment, the support frame 111 and the buffer 113 are integrally formed by injection molding, which can improve the connection stability between the support frame 111 and the buffer 113 and simplify the connection process between the support frame 111 and the buffer 113.

[0095] In some possible embodiments, see Figure 5 and Figure 6 The support frame 111 is provided with a second adhesive-pulling hole and / or a second adhesive-pulling auxiliary protrusion 1116 on the part for connecting with the buffer 113.

[0096] Therefore, by providing a second adhesive-pulling hole and / or a second adhesive-pulling auxiliary protrusion 1116, the stability and strength of the connection between the support frame 111 and the buffer 113 can be further improved.

[0097] For example, there are multiple second adhesive-pulling auxiliary protrusions 1116, which are arranged in an array. The second adhesive-pulling auxiliary protrusions 1116 can have a columnar structure or a dovetail structure.

[0098] In some possible embodiments, see Figure 7 The cover 112 is made of plastic. A reinforcing piece 114 is provided on the side of the second mounting surface 1112 facing the first mounting surface 1111. The strength of the reinforcing piece 114 is greater than the strength of the cover 112.

[0099] The reinforcing sheet 114 can be made of metal, such as magnesium alloy or stainless steel, or non-metal, such as silicon.

[0100] Because plastic has poor strength, rigidity, and thermal conductivity, a reinforcing plate 114 is provided on the side of the second mounting surface 1112 facing the first mounting surface 1111. The strength of the reinforcing plate 114 is greater than the strength of the cover 112, thereby improving the strength of the cover 112. When the reinforcing plate 114 is a metal reinforcing plate, the heat dissipation function of the cover 112 can be further improved.

[0101] In some possible embodiments, see Figure 7 The reinforcing plate 114 is provided with multiple arrayed heat dissipation holes 1141.

[0102] By providing multiple arrayed heat dissipation holes 1141 on the reinforcing plate 114, the heat dissipation function of the reinforcing plate 114 can be further improved.

[0103] In some possible embodiments, see Figure 8 The cover 112 and the support frame 111 are integrally formed.

[0104] When the cover 112 is integrally formed with the support frame 111, the number of structural components of the main unit housing can be reduced, thereby simplifying the assembly process of the main unit housing.

[0105] In some possible embodiments, see Figure 9 The buffer 113 includes a wrapping part 1131 and a covering part 1132, wherein the wrapping part 1131 wraps around the side wall of the support frame 111, and the covering part 1132 covers the second mounting surface 1112 outside the storage slot 1121.

[0106] The sidewall of the aforementioned support frame 111 refers to the part of the structure connected between the first mounting surface 1111 and the second mounting surface 1112.

[0107] Since the wrapping part 1131 wraps around the side wall of the support frame 111 and the covering part 1132 covers the second mounting surface 1112 outside the storage groove 1121, the buffer 113 can protect both the side wall of the support frame 111 and the part of the second mounting surface 1112 outside the storage groove 1121, thus further improving the protective effect of the buffer 113 on the support frame 111.

[0108] In some possible embodiments, see Figure 10 The wrapping part 1131 and the covering part 1132 are provided separately, or, see [link to documentation] Figure 9 The wrapping part 1131 and the covering part 1132 are integrally formed.

[0109] When the wrapping part 1131 and the covering part 1132 are set separately, the covering part 1132 can be removed from the second mounting surface 1112 to install other components into the main housing 110 or to repair other components inside the main housing 110, thereby avoiding multiple disassemblies of the display screen 230 and extending the service life of the display screen 230.

[0110] When the wrapping part 1131 and the covering part 1132 are integrally formed, the number of parts of the main housing 110 can be reduced, thereby simplifying the assembly process of the main housing 110.

[0111] Optionally, the wrapping part 1131 and the covering part 1132 are integrally formed by a die-cutting process, so that the wrapping part 1131 and the covering part 1132 can be two different colors, in order to further improve the decorative effect of the buffer 113 on the support frame 111 and enhance the visual sense of the main body housing 110.

[0112] In some possible embodiments, see Figure 11 and Figure 12 A portion of the wrapping part 1131 wraps around the side wall of the support frame 111, and another portion wraps around the perimeter of the first mounting surface 1111 and the second mounting surface 1112 respectively. The covering part 1132 covers the second mounting surface 1112 between the storage groove 1121 and the wrapping part 1131.

[0113] Thus, by wrapping the other part of the wrapping part 1131 around the edges of the first mounting surface 1111 and the second mounting surface 1112 respectively, and covering the second mounting surface 1112 between the storage groove 1121 and the wrapping part 1131, on the one hand, the decoration of the display screen 230 can be eliminated, that is, the wrapping part 1131 that wraps around the edges of the first mounting surface 1111 is relative to the decoration of the display screen 230. On the other hand, it enhances the sense of layering of the second mounting surface 1112.

[0114] In some possible embodiments, both the support frame 111 and the cover 112 are made of metal.

[0115] The specific details regarding the metal material have been described in the above embodiments and will not be repeated here.

[0116] Since both the support frame 111 and the cover 112 are made of metal, on the one hand, the heat dissipation effect of the main unit casing 110 can be improved, and on the other hand, the strength of the main unit casing 110 can be improved.

[0117] Optionally, both the support frame 111 and the cover 112 are made of magnesium alloy. Since magnesium alloy has good heat dissipation and high strength, it can further ensure the heat dissipation and strength of the main unit housing 110.

[0118] Furthermore, in order to improve the strength of the connection between the support frame 111 and the cover 112 and the buffer 113, a T-process is applied to the surface where the support frame connects to the buffer 113 and the surface where the cover 112 connects to the buffer 113.

[0119] Typically, a horn opening is provided on the second mounting surface 1112, and a horn decorative element is provided on the horn opening. The horn decorative element has a sound hole. However, when the main unit housing 110 is placed on a table or other surface facing the second mounting surface 1112, the surface can fit against the horn decorative element, thus affecting the sound output of the horn. Therefore, in some possible embodiments, see... Figure 13 The edge of the cover 112 is provided with abutting protrusions 1122.

[0120] Therefore, by setting the abutment protrusion 1122, it is possible to prevent the side surface of the main unit housing 110 facing the second mounting surface 1112 from touching the placement surface, thereby avoiding the impact on the sound output of the speaker.

[0121] In some possible embodiments, see Figure 14 The bottom of the storage slot 1121 is provided with buffer protrusions 1123.

[0122] Since the storage slot 1121 is used to store the pen body 220, the buffer protrusion 1123 provided at the bottom of the storage slot 1121 can play a buffering role when the pen body 220 is stored in the storage slot 1121. At the same time, when the pen body 220 leaves the storage slot 1121, the buffer protrusion 1123 can also play a role in resetting the pen body 220.

[0123] In some possible embodiments, see Figure 15 and Figure 16 The outer shell structure 100 also includes a pen body shell 120, which is rotatably connected to the main body shell. When the pen body shell 120 rotates toward the main body shell, the pen body shell 120 can be stored in the storage slot 1121.

[0124] The direction of rotation between the pen body shell 120 and the main body shell is not limited. For example, the electronic pen 200 has a length direction. Along the length direction of the electronic pen 200, one end of the main body shell 110 is rotatably connected to the end of the pen body shell 120, or the part between the two ends of the main body shell 110 is rotatably connected to the pen body shell 120, or along the width direction of the electronic pen 200, one end of the main body shell 110 is rotatably connected to the end of the pen body shell 120.

[0125] Since the pen body shell 120 is rotatably connected to the main body shell, when the pen body shell 120 rotates toward the main body shell, it can be stored in the storage slot 1121, thereby reducing the length of the electronic pen 200 during carrying and improving the convenience of storing the electronic pen 200.

[0126] See Figure 17 This application embodiment also provides an electronic pen 200, which includes a housing structure 100 and a display screen 230, wherein the housing structure 100 is the housing structure 100 in the above embodiment, and the display screen 230 is mounted on a first mounting surface 1111.

[0127] The shell structure 100 in this embodiment may be the same as any of the shell structures 100 in the above embodiments and may bring the same or similar beneficial effects. For details, please refer to the description in the above embodiments. This embodiment will not be repeated here.

[0128] Since the electronic pen 200 in this embodiment includes the outer shell structure 100 in the above embodiments, on the one hand, the convenience of storing the electronic pen 200 can be improved; on the other hand, since the main body shell 110 of the outer shell structure 100 includes a buffer 113, the outer shell structure 100 itself has a cushioning effect, thereby improving the protective effect of the outer shell structure 100 on the electronic pen 200. In particular, when the pen body 220 is stored in the storage slot 1121, the outer shell structure 100 can protect both the main body 210 and the pen body 220 simultaneously.

[0129] In some possible embodiments, see Figure 18 The surface of the cover 112 facing the first mounting surface 1111 is a first surface 3A, which is used to bond with the display screen 230. The edge of the first surface 3A is provided with a connecting groove 1125. The support frame 111 is provided with an extension 1117, which extends into the connecting groove 1125 and has a first adhesive gap 1A between it and the inner wall of the connecting groove 1125. The second mounting surface 1112 is provided with a mounting opening 1113. The cover 112 is provided with a flange 1124 at the opening of the receiving groove 1121. The flange 1124 overlaps the edge of the mounting opening 1113. There is a second adhesive gap 2A between the flange 1124 and the edge of the mounting opening 1113, and the second adhesive gap 2A is larger than the first adhesive gap 1A.

[0130] Since the display screen 230 is used as a reference during the assembly process of the electronic pen 200, the distance between the display screen 230 and the first surface 3A is minimized, thus ensuring the assembly effect of the display screen 230.

[0131] In addition, since the second adhesive gap 2A is larger than the first adhesive gap 1A, on the one hand, the amount of adhesive in the second adhesive gap 2A can be guaranteed, and the connection strength between the flange 1124 and the edge of the mounting port 1113 can be improved. On the other hand, the installation accuracy between the flange 1124 and the edge of the mounting port 1113 is reduced, and the assembly efficiency of the electronic pen 200 is improved.

[0132] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, and not to limit them; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features; and these modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
