[0047] The present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and examples. It is particularly noted that the following examples are only used to illustrate the present application, but are not intended to limit the scope of the present application. Similarly, the following examples are only some embodiments of the present application rather than all embodiments, and all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in the field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present application.
[0048] Reference to "embodiments" herein means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in conjunction with the embodiments may be included in at least one embodiment of the present application. The appearance of the phrase in various locations in the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it an independent or alternative embodiment that is mutually exclusive with other embodiments. It is explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein may be combined with other embodiments.
[0049] As used herein, "electronic devices" (or simply "terminals") include, but are not limited to, devices configured to receive / send communication signals via a wireline connection (e.g., via a public switched telephone network (PSTN), a digital subscriber line (DSL), a digital cable, a direct cable connection, and / or another data connection / network) and / or via a wireless interface (e.g., for a cellular network, a wireless local area network (WLAN), a digital television network such as a DVB-H network, a satellite network, an AM-FM broadcast transmitter, and / or another communication terminal). Communication terminals configured to communicate via a wireless interface may be referred to as "wireless communication terminals", "wireless terminals" or "mobile terminals". Examples of mobile terminals include, but are not limited to, satellite or cellular phones; personal communication system (PCS) terminals that may combine cellular radiotelephones with data processing, fax, and data communication capabilities; PDAs that may include radiotelephones, pagers, Internet / intranet access, web browsers, organizers, calendars, and / or global positioning system (GPS) receivers; and conventional laptop and / or palmtop receivers or other electronic devices that include radiotelephone transceivers. A mobile phone is an electronic device equipped with a cellular communication module.
[0050] It should be noted that the electronic device in the embodiments of the present application is mainly an electronic device with a camera structure to realize the functions of the electronic device related to taking pictures or videos. It can be understood that the electronic device can include electronic devices with camera structures such as mobile phones, tablet computers, laptops, wearable devices, etc. For example, the electronic device in the present application can be a mobile phone.
[0051] Schematic diagram of the structural disassembly of the sub-device 100. Among them, the electronic device 100 may include a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a laptop computer, a wearable device, etc. In the embodiment of the present application, the electronic device 100 is described by taking a mobile phone as an example. The electronic device 100 may include the following structures: a display screen 110, a middle frame 120, a cover plate 130 and a camera 140. Among them, the camera 140 may be provided with one or more, and this is not specifically limited. The cover plate 130 may be a structural member such as a battery cover or a back cover of the electronic device 100.
[0052] Specifically, the middle frame 120 may include a middle plate and a frame (not shown in the figure), and the frame may be formed by extending the side wall of the middle plate in the thickness direction of the middle plate, so that the two sides of the middle frame 120 that are relatively arranged can form corresponding open structures. The display screen 110 and the cover plate 130 can be respectively covered on the open structures on the opposite sides of the middle frame 120, so as to enclose the accommodation space of the electronic device 100 together with the middle frame 120. In addition, in some embodiments, the middle frame 120 may only include a frame, the display screen 110 may be connected to one side of the middle frame 120, and the cover plate 130 may be connected to the other opposite side of the middle frame 120. It should be noted that all directional indications (such as up, down, left, right, front, back...) in the embodiments of the present application are only used to explain the relative position relationship, movement, etc. between the components under a certain specific posture (as shown in the accompanying drawings). If the specific posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly.
[0053] Among them, the display screen 110 can be used to provide an image display function for the electronic device 100, and the display screen 110 can be covered on one side of the middle frame 120, and the two can be bonded and fixed by adhesive. The display screen 110 can be used to display images, and can be used as an interactive interface to instruct users to perform touch operations such as clicking, sliding, and pressing. At the same time, the display screen 110 can be a dual-curved screen or a four-curved screen in appearance to reduce the black edge of the display screen 110 and increase the visible area of the display screen 110. Correspondingly, the display screen 110 can also be a conventional flat screen, as long as the display screen 110 can realize the graphic display function of the electronic device 100.
[0054] The display screen 110 and the cover plate 130 can be respectively covered on the open structures on opposite sides of the middle frame 120, so as to enclose together with the middle frame 120 to form a housing space for the electronic device 100. The housing space can be used to install components of the electronic device 100 such as the camera 140 and the motherboard 150.
[0055] The mainboard 150 is accommodated in the accommodation space of the electronic device 100 and can be used to issue control instructions to perform focusing operations on the camera 140. Furthermore, a processor (Central Processing Unit, CPU) can be integrated on the mainboard 150, and the CPU can issue control instructions to perform focusing operations on the camera 140.
[0056] It can be understood that the focus adjustment in this application can also be understood as zooming, which refers to changing the focal length of the camera. The CPU protected by this application can perform focusing operations on the camera 140, including but not limited to digital zoom and optical zoom, where digital zoom, also known as electronic zoom, includes the CPU cropping the framing image according to preset conditions to produce a zoomed photo effect; optical zoom is achieved through the camera structure, specifically including the CPU issuing instructions to the zoom lens according to preset conditions, adjusting the physical distance, and then achieving a zoomed photo effect. This application does not limit the implementation methods of digital zoom and optical zoom.
[0057] The camera 140 may be configured to collect light outside the electronic device 100 (hereinafter referred to as external light) and to perform imaging based on the collected external light. The display screen 110 may present an imaging picture of the camera 140 for the user to observe and operate.
[0058] Further, the cover plate 130 may have a light-through portion 131, and external light may reach the camera 140 through the light-through portion 131 and be collected. The light-through portion 131 may be a through hole that penetrates the cover plate 130, or may be a transparent area formed on the cover plate 130. In addition, the electronic device 100 may also be provided with a flash 160, which may be electrically connected to the mainboard 150. The light emitted by the flash 160 may be emitted through the light-through portion 131 to provide fill light for the shooting of the camera 140. The detailed technical features of the other parts of the structure of the electronic device 100 are within the scope of understanding of those skilled in the art, so this application will not repeat them.
[0059] See also Figure 3 and Figure 4 , Figure 3 is a schematic diagram of a partial structural disassembly of an electronic device 200 in some other embodiments of the present application, Figure 4 yes Figure 3 Schematic diagram of the structural disassembly of the camera zoom component 220 in the embodiment.
[0060] Among them, the electronic device 200 may include a cover plate 210 and a camera zoom component 220. Among them, the electronic device 200 may also include structural components such as a display screen, a middle frame, a main board, and a camera. For details, please refer to the relevant description of the electronic device 100 in the aforementioned embodiment, so it will not be repeated here. It can be understood that the electronic device 100 in the aforementioned embodiment can automatically focus the camera through the CPU. The camera zoom component 220 in the electronic device 200 in the embodiment of the present application can also be used to achieve manual focusing, which not only allows the user to have more freedom in controlling the imaging effect of the photographic image, but also allows the user to have a photo-taking experience closer to that of a professional camera, meet user needs and enhance user participation and playability.
[0061] The camera zoom component 220 may include a base 221, a camera 222, a movable part 223, and a sensor 224. The base 221 may have a light hole 2210, and the camera 222 may be mounted on the base 221, and may collect external light through the light hole 2210. In addition, the camera 222 may also be disposed on one side of the base 221, and opposite to the light hole 2210, and the camera 222 may collect external light through the light hole 2210.
[0062] The base 221 may be mounted on the cover 210, and the cover 210 may have a light-through portion 211. The through portion 211 may be a through hole communicating with the light-through hole 2210; or, the through portion 211 may be a transparent area opposite to the light-through hole 2210. The base 221 may be disposed on the through portion 211 and connected to the cover 210. For example, the base 221 may be embedded in the light-through portion 211 (through hole) of the cover 210, and may be fixedly connected to the inner wall of the light-through portion 211 (through hole) by bonding, snapping or screwing. For another example, the base 211 may be covered on the light-through portion 211 (through hole or transparent area) of the cover 210, and may be fixedly connected to the cover 210 by bonding, snapping or screwing.
[0063] In addition, in some embodiments, the base 221 can be inserted through the light-transmitting portion 211 (through hole) of the cover plate 210 , and can be fixedly connected to the middle frame 120 by bonding, snapping, or screwing.
[0064] Optionally, the base 221 and the cover plate 210 may be an integral structure, that is, in this case, it can be understood that the base 221 is a part of the cover plate 210, and the light hole 2210 may be the light-transmitting portion 211 of the cover plate 210. It should be noted that the base 221 and the cover plate 210 are terms used only to distinguish between an integral base 221 and the cover plate 210 and a separate base 221 and the cover plate 210, and the two may be identical or similar in structure, and in some embodiments, the base may also be referred to as the cover plate, and the cover plate may also be referred to as the base.
[0065] It is understandable that the terms "installation", "connection", etc. in this application should be understood in a broad sense unless otherwise clearly specified and limited. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection, an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, or the internal connection of two components. For those skilled in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in this article can be understood according to specific circumstances. The detailed technical features of the structure of other parts of the electronic device 100 are within the scope of understanding of those skilled in the art, so this application will not elaborate on them.
[0066] Further, the base 221 may have a first surface 101 and a second surface 102 that are disposed opposite to each other. When the base 221 and the cover 210 are an integral structure, the first surface 101 and the second surface 102 may be two opposite surfaces of the cover 210. The first surface 101 may be the appearance surface of the electronic device 200, and the second surface 102 may be the inner surface of the electronic device 200. That is, the first surface 101 is the surface of the cover 210 and / or the base 221 exposed to the outside of the electronic device 200, and the second surface 102 is the surface of the cover 210 and / or the base 221 exposed in the above-mentioned accommodation space.
[0067] The two ends of the light-through hole 2210 are connected to the first surface 101 and the second surface 102 respectively.
[0068] Optionally, the camera zoom component 220 may further include a lens 225 mounted on the base 221. External light may be collected by the camera 222 through the lens 225. The light incident surface of the camera 222 may be exposed to the light through hole 2210, or the camera 222 may be inserted into the light through hole 2210, so as to collect external light. The lens 225 is disposed on the side of the first surface 101 away from the second surface 102, and is disposed opposite to the light through hole 2210, so as to protect the camera 222.
[0069] Optionally, the camera 222 can be assembled in the light through hole 2210 , and the number of the light through hole 2210 can be one or more to meet the use requirements of one or more cameras 222 .
[0070] In one embodiment, the movable member 223 is disposed on one side of the base 221 and is movable relative to the base 221. The sensor 224 is disposed on one side of the base 221 and is disposed opposite to the movable member 223. In other words, when the movable member 223 moves relative to the base 221, the movable member 223 moves relative to the sensor 224, so that the sensor 224 obtains a changed detection signal due to the relative movement with the movable member 223. The changed detection signal obtained by the sensor 224 can be used to characterize the movement displacement and / or movement direction of the movable member 223 relative to the sensor 224. Optionally, the movable member 223 can be disposed on the first surface 101 of the base 221 and can be movable relative to the first surface 101; the sensor 224 can be disposed on one side of the second surface 102 of the base 221 and is disposed opposite to the movable member 223.
[0071] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the movable member 223 may be annular and may rotate about its annular axis relative to the base 221. Optionally, the movable member 223 may be arranged around the periphery of the light-through hole 2210 and may rotate about the light-through hole 2210. Of course, in other embodiments, the region where the movable member 223 is located is staggered with the region where the light-through hole 2210 is located, that is, the region where the movable member 223 is located is spaced apart from or adjacent to the region where the light-through hole 2210 is located.
[0072] In addition, in some embodiments, the movable member 223 may be a bar-shaped or block-shaped structure.
[0073] Of course, in other embodiments, the sensor 224 may be disposed on the first surface of the base 221 and disposed opposite to the movable member 223 , so that the sensor 224 obtains a changing detection signal due to relative movement with the movable member 223 .
[0074] In one embodiment, the camera zoom component 220 may further include a control unit (not shown in the figure, which may be understood as the CPU in the aforementioned embodiment), which is configured to receive signals from the sensor 224 and provide control instructions for zooming the camera 222. Specifically, when the movable member 223 moves relative to the base 221, the movable member 223 moves relative to the sensor 224, so that the sensor 224 obtains a changing detection signal due to the relative movement with the movable member 223, and the control unit can obtain the movement displacement and / or movement direction of the movable member 223 according to the detection signal, and provide a control instruction for the corresponding zooming of the camera 222. Among them, the sensor 224 can realize signal connection with the control unit in a wireless or wired manner.
[0075] The camera zoom component and electronic device provided in the embodiments of the present application, by arranging movable parts and sensors on a base, allow a user to manually operate the movable part to move relative to the sensor, so that the sensor obtains a changing detection signal due to the relative movement between the movable part and the sensor, and then enables the control unit to obtain the movement displacement and / or movement direction of the movable part according to the detection signal, and provide control instructions for the corresponding zoom of the camera, thereby allowing the user to achieve manual focusing through the movable part, which not only allows the user to have more freedom in controlling the imaging effect of the photographic image, but also allows the user to have a photo-taking experience closer to that of a professional camera, thereby meeting user needs and enhancing user participation, playability and other usage experiences.
[0076] See also Figure 5 and Figure 6 , Figure 5 is a schematic diagram of the cross-sectional structure of the camera zoom component 220 in some embodiments of the present application, Figure 6 yes Figure 5 A schematic diagram of the structure of the A area of the camera zoom component 220 in the embodiment. The camera zoom component 220 may include a base 221, a camera 222, a movable part 223, a sensor 224 and a lens 225 arranged on the base 221. Among them, the sensor 224 may be a Hall sensor. The Hall sensor is a magnetic field sensor made according to the Hall effect. The Hall effect is a kind of magnetoelectric effect. The Hall voltage changes with the change of the magnetic field strength. The stronger the magnetic field, the higher the voltage; the weaker the magnetic field, the lower the voltage. Therefore, the Hall sensor cannot directly detect the movement displacement and / or the movement direction, and the magnetic field strength and the movement information need to be matched one by one. During the debugging process of the electronic device, the initial correspondence between the magnetic field strength and the movement information is generally written through the calibration operation, and the correspondence can be directly called during the subsequent use. In addition, by setting multiple Hall sensors, the movement direction can be obtained according to the change trend of the magnetic field strength detected by the multiple Hall sensors during the movement. It should be understood that the meaning of "multiple" is at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.
[0077] Specifically, the base 221 may be a plate-like structural member, or may be in other shapes, and reference may be made to the specific description in the aforementioned embodiments. The base 221 has a first surface 101 and a second surface 102 opposite to each other, and a light hole 2210, and both ends of the light hole 2210 are connected to the first surface 101 and the second surface 102, respectively. The camera 222 is assembled in the light hole 2210, and the lens 225 is arranged on the side of the first surface 101 away from the second surface 102, and is opposite to the light incident surface of the camera 222. Among them, the lens 225 can be connected and fixed to the base 221 by means of screwing, bonding, welding, or clamping.
[0078] Since the first surface 101 is the appearance surface of the electronic device 100 , the movable member 223 may be disposed on the first surface 101 of the base 221 , so that the user can manually operate the movable member 223 .
[0079] In one embodiment, a magnet 226 may be provided on the movable member 223, and the magnet 226 may be arranged opposite to the Hall sensor or adjacent to the Hall sensor, so that the Hall sensor can detect the magnetic field strength of the magnet 226. The movable member 223 can move relative to the Hall sensor, so that the magnet 226 can move relative to the sensor 224. When the magnet 226 moves relative to the sensor 224, the distance between the magnet 226 and the Hall sensor gradually changes, so that the magnetic field strength of the magnet 226 detected by the Hall sensor gradually changes, and the movement displacement and / or movement direction of the movable member 223 can be obtained.
[0080] Optionally, when the movable member 223 is annular, the movable member 223 can rotate around the Hall sensor, so that the magnet 226 can rotate around the Hall sensor. When the magnet 226 rotates around the Hall sensor, the distance between the magnet 226 and the Hall sensor gradually changes, so that the magnetic field strength of the magnet 226 detected by the Hall sensor gradually changes, and the rotation angle and / or rotation direction of the movable member 223 can be obtained.
[0081] The camera zoom component and electronic device provided in the embodiment of the present application are provided with a movable part and a Hall sensor on the base, and a magnet is provided on the movable part. When the user can manually operate the movable part to move relative to the Hall sensor, the magnet can be driven to move relative to the Hall sensor, so that the Hall sensor can detect the changing magnetic field, and then the moving displacement and / or moving direction of the movable part can be obtained according to the magnetic field detected by the Hall sensor. In addition, the Hall sensor can transmit the obtained changing magnetic field signal to the CPU of the electronic device, so that the CPU can provide the control instruction of the corresponding zoom of the camera, thereby allowing the user to realize the manual focusing function, which not only makes the user's control over the imaging effect of the photographic image more free, but also makes the user's photo taking experience closer to the experience of professional cameras, meets user needs and improves the user's sense of participation and playability. In addition, the CPU of the electronic device can also provide other control instructions according to the detection signal obtained by the Hall sensor, such as providing control instructions such as controlling the page turning of e-books, web browsing or volume adjustment.
[0082] The sensor 224 can establish a signal connection with the CPU of the electronic device to transmit the detected signal to the CPU of the electronic device, so that the CPU of the electronic device can provide corresponding control instructions according to the received signal. Optionally, the sensor 224 can establish a signal connection with the CPU of the electronic device through a flexible circuit board 2241.
[0083] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the sensor 224 can be arranged on the second surface 102 of the base 221, and the projection of the sensor 224 on the first surface 101 is arranged opposite to the projection of the magnet 226 on the first surface 101. Optionally, the second surface 102 of the base 221 can be provided with a mounting groove 1021 for mounting the sensor 224. In addition, in some embodiments, the sensor 224 can be arranged on the second surface 102 or in the mounting groove 1021 by bonding, clamping or screwing. In addition, in some embodiments, the sensor 224 can be arranged on the first surface 101 of the base 221 and arranged opposite to the magnet 226 on the movable member 223.
[0084] The base 221 is made of non-magnetic material, such as plastic, so as to avoid affecting the magnetic field strength of the magnet 226 sensed by the sensor 224 .
[0085] Combined with reference Figure 7 , Figure 7 2 is a schematic diagram of the distribution of the magnet 226 and the sensor 224 in some embodiments of the present application. The moving track of the magnet 226 on the first surface 101 can be a circle, and the projection of the sensor 224 on the first surface 101 is located in the area surrounded by the above-mentioned moving track, and the projection of the sensor 224 on the first surface 101 deviates from the center of the circle, so that when the magnet 226 rotates around the sensor 224, the distance between the magnet 226 and the sensor 224 can gradually increase or decrease, that is, the magnetic field strength of the magnet 226 detected by the sensor 224 gradually increases or gradually decreases.
[0086] In one embodiment, the sensor 224 is provided with a movable part 223 driving the magnet 226 to rotate around the sensor 224. Based on the circular rotation trajectory of the magnet 226, the sensor 224 can only obtain the rotation angle of the movable part 223 according to the change of the magnetic field strength, and it is difficult to determine the rotation direction of the movable part 223.
[0087] In some embodiments, two sensors 224 are provided, and the two sensors 224 are arranged in sequence and spaced apart in the rotation direction of the magnet 226. At this time, when the magnet 226 rotates around the sensor 224, the magnetic induction intensities sensed by the two sensors 224 are different, so that the rotation direction and rotation angle of the movable part 223 can be obtained through the change trend of the magnetic induction intensities detected by the two sensors 224.
[0088] like Figure 7 As shown, take the example that the sensor 224a and the sensor 224b are arranged in sequence in the rotation direction of the magnet 226. In the initial state, when the magnetic field strength detected by the sensor 224a is less than the magnetic field strength detected by the sensor 224b, it is considered that the distance between the sensor 224a and the magnet 226 is greater than the distance between the sensor 224b and the magnet 226. When defining the initial state, the sensor 224b and the magnet 226 are arranged opposite to each other, that is, at this time, the distance between the sensor 224b and the magnet 226 is the minimum value.
[0089] During the process of magnet 226 rotating around sensor 224b for one circle, the magnetic field strength detected by sensor 224b during the first half of the rotation of magnet 226 gradually decreases, and the magnetic field strength detected by sensor 224b during the second half of the rotation of magnet 226 gradually increases. That is, magnet 226 first rotates to a position where the distance between it and sensor 224b is the maximum value, at which time the magnetic field strength detected by sensor 224a is the valley value; then magnet 226 rotates to a position where the distance between it and sensor 224b is the minimum value, i.e., the initial position, at which time the magnetic field strength detected by sensor 224a is the peak value.
[0090] At the same time, when the magnet 226 rotates in the clockwise direction S, in the process of the magnet 226 rotating around the sensor 224b for one circle, the magnetic field strength detected by the sensor 224a shows a trend of gradually increasing to a peak value, then gradually decreasing to a trough value, and finally gradually increasing, that is, the magnet 226 first rotates to a position where the distance between it and the sensor 224a is a minimum, at which time the magnetic field strength detected by the sensor 224a is a peak value, and then the magnet 226 rotates to a position where the distance between it and the sensor 224a is a maximum, at which time the magnetic field strength detected by the sensor 224a is a trough value. When the magnet 226 rotates in the counterclockwise direction N, in the process of the magnet 226 rotating around the sensor 224b for one circle, the magnetic field strength detected by the sensor 224a shows a trend of gradually decreasing, decreasing to a trough value, gradually increasing to a peak value, and finally gradually decreasing, that is, the magnet 226 first rotates to a position where the distance between it and the sensor 224a is the maximum value, at which time the magnetic field strength detected by the sensor 224a is the trough value, and then the magnet 226 rotates to a position where the distance between it and the sensor 224a is the minimum value, at which time the magnetic field strength detected by the sensor 224a is the peak value.
[0091] In summary, the rotation angle and rotation direction of the movable part 223 can be obtained according to the magnetic field strength and its change trend detected by the sensor 224a and the sensor 224b.
[0092] See again Figure 7 , taking the case where sensors 224a, 224b, and 224c are sequentially arranged in the rotation direction of magnet 226. It is defined that in the initial state, sensor 224b is arranged opposite to magnet 226, that is, the distance between sensor 224b and magnet 226 is the minimum value at this time. Sensor 224a and sensor 224c are located on both sides of sensor 224b. That is, the distance between sensor 224a, sensor 224c and magnet 226 is greater than the distance between sensor 224b and magnet 226.
[0093] During the process of magnet 226 rotating around sensor 224b for one circle, the magnetic field strength detected by sensor 224b during the first half of the rotation of magnet 226 gradually decreases to a trough value, and the magnetic field strength detected by sensor 224b during the second half of the rotation of magnet 226 gradually increases to a peak value. That is, magnet 226 first rotates to a position where the distance between it and sensor 224b is the maximum value, at which time the magnetic field strength detected by sensor 224a is a trough value; then magnet 226 rotates to a position where the distance between it and sensor 224b is the minimum value, i.e., the initial position, at which time the magnetic field strength detected by sensor 224a is a peak value.
[0094] At the same time, when the magnet 226 rotates in the clockwise direction S, in the process of the magnet 226 rotating around the sensor 224b for one circle, the magnetic field strength detected by the sensor 224a shows a trend of gradually increasing to the peak value, then gradually decreasing to the trough value, and finally gradually increasing; the magnet 226 first rotates to the position where the distance between the magnet 226 and the sensor 224a is the minimum value, and the magnetic field strength detected by the sensor 224a is the peak value; then the magnet 226 rotates to the position where the distance between the magnet 226 and the sensor 224a is the maximum value, and the magnetic field strength detected by the sensor 224a is the trough value. The magnetic field strength detected by the sensor 224c shows a trend of gradually decreasing, decreasing to the trough value, and then gradually increasing to the peak value, and finally gradually decreasing; the magnet 226 first rotates to the position where the distance between the magnet 226 and the sensor 224c is the maximum value, and the magnetic field strength detected by the sensor 224c is the trough value; then the magnet 226 rotates to the position where the distance between the magnet 226 and the sensor 224c is the minimum value, and the magnetic field strength detected by the sensor 224c is the peak value. When the magnet 226 rotates in the counterclockwise direction N, during the process of the magnet 226 rotating around the sensor 224b for one circle, the magnetic field strength detected by the sensor 224a shows a trend of gradually decreasing, decreasing to a trough value, then gradually increasing to a peak value, and finally gradually decreasing; the magnet 226 first rotates to a position where the distance between the magnet 226 and the sensor 224a is the maximum value, and the magnetic field strength detected by the sensor 224a is the trough value; then the magnet 226 rotates to a position where the distance between the magnet 226 and the sensor 224a is the minimum value, and the magnetic field strength detected by the sensor 224a is the peak value. The magnetic field strength detected by the sensor 224c shows a trend of gradually increasing to a peak value, then gradually decreasing to a trough value, and finally gradually increasing; the magnet 226 first rotates to a position where the distance between the magnet 226 and the sensor 224c is the minimum value, and the magnetic field strength detected by the sensor 224c is the peak value; then the magnet 226 rotates to a position where the distance between the magnet 226 and the sensor 224c is the maximum value, and the magnetic field strength detected by the sensor 224c is the trough value.
[0095] In summary, the rotation angle and rotation direction of the movable member 223 can be obtained based on the magnetic field strength and its change trend detected by multiple sensors 224 (e.g., sensors 224a, sensors 224b, and sensors 224c) sequentially spaced in the rotation direction of the magnet 226, i.e., in the circumferential direction of the movable member 223. The above embodiment only lists the number of sensors 224 by way of example, but is not limited thereto.
[0096] In some embodiments, a plurality of magnets 226 may be evenly distributed in the circumferential direction of the circular trajectory, such as Figure 7As shown, there may be four magnets 226 evenly distributed. Of course, in other embodiments, there may be two, five, six, or eight magnets 226 evenly distributed. When the magnet 226 rotates around the sensor 224 for one revolution, the fitting graph of the magnetic induction intensity detected by the sensor 224 is approximately a sine waveform.
[0097] See also Figure 8 , Figure 8 It is a schematic diagram of the structure of the base 221 in some embodiments of the present application.
[0098] The first surface 101 of the base 221 may be provided with an annular groove 2211, and the annular groove 2211 may be arranged around the periphery of the light-through hole 2210. In one embodiment, the base 221 may also be provided with a flash hole 2213, and the flash hole 2213 may be arranged inside the annular groove 2211. In other words, the annular groove 2211 may be arranged around the periphery of the light-through hole 2210 and the flash hole 2213.
[0099] Further, one end of the movable member 223 is embedded in the annular groove 2211 and can rotate along the annular groove 2211 to ensure that the movable member 223 can rotate stably. In other words, the annular groove 2211 is configured to limit the rotation trajectory of the movable member 223. As mentioned above, the sensor 224 can be arranged on the second surface 102 of the base 221. At this time, the magnet 226 can be arranged on the end of the movable member 223 embedded in the annular groove 2211, so that the distance between the magnet 226 and the sensor 224 is small, thereby ensuring the intensity of the magnetic field that the sensor 224 can detect. In addition, in some embodiments, the sensor 224 can be arranged on the first surface 101 of the base 221, and the annular groove 2211 is arranged around the periphery of the sensor 224. At this time, the magnet 226 can be arranged on the side of the movable member 223, so that the distance between the magnet 226 and the sensor 224 is small, thereby ensuring the intensity of the magnetic field that the sensor 224 can detect.
[0100] Combined with reference Fig. 9 , Fig. 9 yes Figure 8Schematic diagram of a partial cross-sectional structure of the base 221 in an embodiment. In one embodiment, the annular groove 2211 has a first side wall 22111 and a second side wall 22112 that are arranged opposite to each other, and a bottom wall 22113 connecting the first side wall 22111 and the second side wall 22112. Among them, the first side wall 22111 can be understood as the annular outer wall of the annular groove 22111, and the second side wall 22112 can be understood as the inner wall of the outer shape of the annular groove 22111. The annular inner diameter of the first side wall 22111 is greater than the outer diameter of the second side wall 22112. The bottom wall 22113 is arranged between the first side wall 22111 and the second side wall 22112, and connects the first side wall 22111 and the second side wall 22112 respectively. The bottom wall 22113 may be annular, the first side wall 22111 is connected to the annular outer periphery of the bottom wall 22113 , the second side wall 22112 is connected to the outer inner periphery of the bottom wall 22113 , and the first side wall 22111 and the second side wall 22112 are arranged on the same side of the bottom wall 22113 .
[0101] When one end of the movable member 223 is embedded in the annular groove 2211 , the magnet 226 may be located between the first side wall 22111 and the second side wall 22112 .
[0102] Combined with reference Figure 6 The bottom wall 22113 is provided with a first groove 2214, and the camera zoom component 220 may further include a telescopic structure 227 provided in the first groove 2214. The telescopic structure 227 may abut against the end of the movable member 223 embedded in the annular groove 2211, that is, the telescopic structure 227 may have a portion protruding from the first groove 2214 and exposed in the annular groove 2211, and the portion may abut against the movable member 223. The telescopic structure 227 is configured to limit the movement displacement of the movable member 223.

The elastic member 2271 may be an elastic structure such as a spring or foam, and the rolling member 2272 may be a spherical structure such as a ball.

[0105] The end of the movable member 223 embedded in the annular groove 2211 is provided with a second groove 2231, and the second groove 2231 can be used to accommodate the magnet 226. During the rotation of the movable member 223, when the second groove 2231 is opposite to the first groove 2214, the telescopic structure 227 can partially enter the second groove 2231 to limit the movable member 223. Further, when the first groove 2214 is opposite to the second groove 2231, the rolling member 2272 can partially enter the second groove 2231. The magnet 226 can be fixedly assembled in the second groove 2231 by bonding, clamping or screwing.
[0106] like Fig.10 As shown, the movable member 223 may be annular and sleeved on the second side wall 22112. In some embodiments, the movable member 223 may also be an arc-shaped strip and embedded in the annular groove 2211, and the movable member 223 can move along the annular groove 2211 to rotate around the Hall sensor.
[0107] In one embodiment, there may be a plurality of first grooves 2214, that is, there may be a plurality of telescopic structures 227. The plurality of telescopic structures 227 are respectively arranged in one-to-one correspondence with the plurality of first grooves 2214. The plurality of first grooves 2214 and the plurality of telescopic structures 227 are evenly distributed in the circumferential direction of the annular groove 2211 to ensure the stability of the movable member 223.
[0108] In one embodiment, a plurality of second grooves 2231 may be provided, and the plurality of second grooves 2231 may be evenly distributed in the circumferential direction of the movable member 223 to achieve a multi-gear adjustment effect. The number of second grooves 2231 may be the same as or different from the number of first grooves 2214. Optionally, the number of second grooves 2231 may be the same as the number of first grooves 2214, that is, during the rotation of the movable member 223, each first groove 2214 may be opposite to a second groove 2231, so that each telescopic structure 227 may enter a second groove 2231. Optionally, the number of second grooves 2231 may be more than the number of first grooves 2214 to achieve a multi-gear adjustment effect. For example, the number of second grooves 2231 may be 8, that is, the movable member 223 may rotate 8 gears. For another example, the number of first grooves 2214 may be 4, so as to limit the movable member 223 at 4 positions and ensure the stability of the movable member 223 during movement.
[0109] Furthermore, there may be one or more magnets 226. When there is one magnet 226, one magnet 226 is assembled in one second groove 2231 among the plurality of second grooves 2231. When there are a plurality of magnets 226, the plurality of magnets 226 are evenly distributed in the circumferential direction of the movable member 223. The number of second grooves 2231 is an integer multiple of the number of magnets 226, and each magnet 226 is arranged in one second groove 2231. Figure 7 As shown, the number of the second grooves 2231 is three times the number of the magnets 226, that is, one magnet 226 is installed in every three adjacent second grooves 2231. Of course, in some embodiments, the number of the second grooves 2231 is the same as the number of the magnets 226. For example, there are four second grooves 2231 and four magnets 226, which are evenly distributed on the circumference of the movable member 223, and one magnet 226 is installed in each second groove 2231.

That is, the notches of the first slot 2232 and the second slot 2233 are arranged opposite to each other. The first slot 2232 and the second slot 2233 may be annular slots. The positioning member 228 is arranged between the first slot 2232 and the second slot 2233, and has a portion embedded in the first slot 2232 and another portion embedded in the second slot 2233.

Specifically, the first portion 2281 may include an abutment portion 22811 and a connecting portion 22812 disposed on one side of the abutment portion 22811. The connecting portion 22812 is connected to the second portion 2282 to form an annular body of the positioning member 228 with the second portion 2282. The abutment portion 22811 may be disposed on the inner side of the annular body of the positioning member 228, that is, the abutment portion 22811 may be convexly disposed on the annular inner wall of the positioning member 228. Further, the abutting portion 22811 can respectively abut against the bottom wall 22113 and the second side wall 22112 to position the positioning member 228. The connecting portion 22812 is provided on the side of the abutting portion 22811 away from the second side wall 22112 and is spaced apart from the bottom wall 22113, so that the side of the connecting portion 22812 away from the abutting portion 22811 can be embedded in the first slot 2232.

The second portion 2282 is provided between two adjacent first portions 2281 to form a ring-shaped positioning member 228.
[0115] Optionally, the positioning member 228 can be made of a plastic with a certain elasticity (such as polycarbonate, or polymethyl methacrylate and other materials) so that a certain elastic deformation can occur when the movable member 223 rotates, so that the positioning member 228 can be partially dislocated, so that the movable member 480 can be rotated more smoothly. Of course, in other embodiments, the positioning member 228 can also be made of elastic materials such as rubber or silicone. It should be noted that the terms "first", "second", and "third" in this application are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, the features defined as "first", "second", and "third" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of such features.
[0116] As mentioned above, the lens 225 is arranged on the side of the first surface 101 away from the second surface 102, and is opposite to the light incident surface of the camera 222, so as to cover the camera 222, thereby protecting the camera 222. It can be understood that by setting the lens 225, not only the shooting / photographing effect of the camera is not affected, but also the camera can be waterproof and dustproof. Among them, the lens 225 is a transparent material, for example, it can be glass. Among them, the second side wall 22112 is sleeved on the outer peripheral edge of the lens 225. The lens 225 can be connected and fixed with the second side wall 22112 by bonding, welding or clamping. Preferably, the lens 225 is connected and fixed with the second side wall 22112 by bonding. Optionally, the second side wall 22112 is arranged around the outer peripheral edge of the lens 225 to seal the side of the lens 225 to prevent water vapor, dust, etc. from entering the interior of the electronic device 100 from the gap between the lens 225 and the second side wall 22112. In one embodiment, a side of the second side wall 22112 facing away from the first side wall 22111 may be provided with an annular groove, and the annular groove is arranged around the periphery of the lens 225 .
[0117] In one embodiment, the height of the second side wall 22112 protruding from the bottom wall 22113 is greater than the height of the first side wall 22111 protruding from the bottom wall 22113. On the one hand, it can smoothly transition with the movable part 223 to improve the appearance consistency of the electronic device 100. On the other hand, it can provide layout space for the positioning part 228.

[0119] The camera zoom component and electronic device provided in the embodiment of the present application, by arranging a movable part and a Hall sensor on the base, and arranging a magnet on the movable part, allows the user to manually operate the movable part to move relative to the Hall sensor, and drive the magnet to move relative to the Hall sensor, so that the Hall sensor can detect the changing magnetic field, and then the moving displacement and / or moving direction of the movable part can be obtained according to the magnetic field detected by the Hall sensor. In addition, the Hall sensor can transmit the acquired changing magnetic field signal to the CPU of the electronic device, so that the CPU can focus the camera, thereby allowing the user to realize the manual focusing function, which not only allows the user to control the imaging effect of the photographic image more freely, but also allows the user to have a photo taking experience closer to that of a professional camera, meeting the user's needs. The focusing of the present application can also be understood as zooming, which refers to changing the focal length of the camera. The CPU protected by this application can perform focusing operations on the camera, including but not limited to digital zoom and optical zoom, where digital zoom, also known as electronic zoom, includes the CPU obtaining a magnetic field signal corresponding to the rotation angle of the moving part through the Hall sensor to crop the framing image according to preset conditions to produce a zoomed photo effect; optical zoom is achieved through the camera structure, specifically including the CPU obtaining a magnetic field signal corresponding to the rotation angle of the moving part through the Hall sensor to issue instructions to the zoom lens according to preset conditions to adjust the physical distance, thereby achieving a zoomed photo effect. This application does not limit the implementation methods of digital zoom and optical zoom.
[0120] In addition, in some other application scenarios, when the user does not need to take pictures, the rotation of the magnet relative to the Hall sensor can also realize adjustment functions such as turning pages of e-books, browsing web pages, or adjusting volume. That is, part of the structure of the above-mentioned camera zoom component can also be reused as an adjustment structure of an electronic device to meet the user's usage needs in other scenarios. Based on this, the embodiment of the present application also provides an adjustment component, which can call part of the structure of the camera zoom component to realize the corresponding adjustment function.

When the magnet 360 moves relative to the Hall sensor 340, the distance between the magnet 360 and the Hall sensor 340 gradually changes, so that the magnetic field strength of the magnet 360 detected by the Hall sensor 340 gradually changes, thereby obtaining the movement displacement and / or movement direction of the movable member 330.

In addition, it should be noted that the above-mentioned adjustment component can also be applied to electronic devices to realize the manual focus function of the camera.
[0127] See also Fig.18 and Fig.19 , Fig.18 is a schematic diagram of a partial structural disassembly of an electronic device 400 in some other embodiments of the present application, Fig.19 yes Fig.18 Schematic diagram of the structural disassembly of the camera zoom component 420 in the embodiment. Among them, the electronic device 400 may include a cover plate 410 and a camera zoom component 420. Among them, the electronic device 400 may also include structural components such as a display screen, a middle frame, a main board and a camera. For details, please refer to the relevant description of the electronic device in the aforementioned embodiment, so it will not be repeated here. It can be understood that the electronic device in the aforementioned embodiment can automatically focus the camera through the CPU. The camera zoom component 420 in the electronic device 400 of the embodiment of the present application can also be used to achieve manual focusing, which not only allows the user to have more freedom in controlling the imaging effect of the photographic image, but also allows the user to have a photo-taking experience closer to that of a professional camera, meet user needs and enhance user participation and playability.
[0128] The camera zoom component 420 may include a base 421, a camera (not shown in the figure), a movable part 423, and a sensor 424. The base 421 may have a light hole 4210, and the camera may be mounted on the base 421, and may collect external light through the light hole 4210. In addition, the camera may also be disposed on one side of the base 421, and opposite to the light hole 4210, and the camera may collect external light through the light hole 4210.
[0129] Among them, the base 421 can be installed on the cover plate 410, and the cover plate 410 can have a light-through portion 411. The light-through portion 411 can be a through hole communicating with the light-through hole 4210; or, the light-through portion 411 can be a transparent area opposite to the light-through hole 4210. The base 421 can be arranged on the light-through portion 411 and connected to the cover plate 410. For example, the base 421 can be embedded in the light-through portion 411 (through hole) of the cover plate 410, and can be fixedly connected to the inner wall of the light-through portion 411 (through hole) by bonding, snap-fitting or screwing. For another example, the base 411 can be covered on the light-through portion 411 (through hole or transparent area) of the cover plate 410, and can be fixedly connected to the cover plate 410 by bonding, snap-fitting or screwing.
[0130] In addition, in some embodiments, the base 421 can be inserted into the light-transmitting portion 411 (through hole) of the cover plate 410 , and can be fixedly connected to the middle frame 120 by bonding, snapping, or screwing.
[0131] Optionally, the base 421 and the cover plate 410 may be an integral structure, that is, in this case, it can be understood that the base 421 is a part of the cover plate 410, and the light hole 4210 may be the light-transmitting portion 411 of the cover plate 410. It should be noted that the base 421 and the cover plate 410 are terms used only to distinguish between an integral base 421 and the cover plate 410 and a separate base 421 and the cover plate 410, and the two may be identical or similar in structure, and in some embodiments, the base may also be referred to as the cover plate, and the cover plate may also be referred to as the base.
[0132] Further, the base 421 may have a first surface 401 and a second surface 402 that are disposed opposite to each other. When the base 421 and the cover 410 are an integral structure, the first surface 401 and the second surface 402 may be two opposite surfaces of the cover 410. Among them, the first surface 401 may be the appearance surface of the electronic device 400, and the second surface 402 may be the inner surface of the electronic device 400. That is, the first surface 401 is the surface of the cover 410 and / or the base 421 exposed to the outside of the electronic device 400, and the second surface 402 is the surface of the cover 410 and / or the base 421 exposed in the above-mentioned accommodation space.
[0133] The two ends of the light-through hole 4210 are connected to the first surface 401 and the second surface 402 respectively.
[0134] Optionally, the camera zoom component 420 may further include a lens 425 mounted on the base 421. External light may be collected by the camera through the lens 425. The light incident surface of the camera may be exposed to the light through hole 4210, or the camera may be inserted into the light through hole 4210, so as to collect external light. The lens 425 is disposed on the side of the first surface 401 away from the second surface 402, and is arranged opposite to the light through hole 4210, so as to protect the camera. Optionally, the camera may be mounted in the light through hole 4210, and the number of the light through holes 4210 may be one or more, so as to meet the use requirements of one or more cameras.
[0135] In one embodiment, the movable member 423 is disposed on one side of the base 421 and is movable relative to the base 421. The sensor 424 is disposed on one side of the base 421 and is disposed opposite to the movable member 423. In other words, when the movable member 423 moves relative to the base 421, the movable member 423 moves relative to the sensor 424, so that the sensor 424 obtains a changed detection signal due to the relative movement with the movable member 423. The changed detection signal obtained by the sensor 424 can be used to characterize the movement displacement and / or movement direction of the movable member 423 relative to the sensor 424. Optionally, the movable member 423 can be disposed on the first surface 401 of the base 421 and can be movable relative to the first surface 401; the sensor 424 can be disposed on one side of the second surface 402 of the base 421 and is disposed opposite to the movable member 423.
[0136] like Fig.18 and Fig.19 As shown, the movable member 423 may be annular and may rotate about its annular axis relative to the base 421. Optionally, the movable member 423 may be arranged around the periphery of the light-through hole 4210 and may rotate about the light-through hole 4210. Of course, in other embodiments, the region where the movable member 423 is located is staggered with the region where the light-through hole 4210 is located, and the region where the movable member 423 is located is spaced apart from or adjacent to the region where the light-through hole 4210 is located.
[0137] In addition, in some embodiments, the movable member 423 may be a bar-shaped or block-shaped structure.
[0138] Of course, in other embodiments, the sensor 424 may be disposed on the first surface of the base 421 and disposed opposite to the movable member 423 , so that the sensor 424 obtains a changing detection signal due to relative movement with the movable member 423 .
[0139] In one embodiment, the camera zoom component 420 may further include a control unit (not shown in the figure, which may be understood as the CPU in the aforementioned embodiment), which is configured to receive signals from the sensor 424 and provide control instructions for zooming the camera 422. Specifically, when the movable member 423 moves relative to the base 421, the movable member 423 moves relative to the sensor 424, so that the sensor 424 obtains a changing detection signal due to the relative movement with the movable member 423, and the control unit can obtain the movement displacement and / or movement direction of the movable member 423 according to the detection signal, and provide a control instruction for the corresponding zooming of the camera 422. Among them, the sensor 424 can realize signal connection with the control unit in a wireless or wired manner.
[0140] The camera zoom component and electronic device provided in the embodiments of the present application, by arranging movable parts and sensors on a base, allow a user to manually operate the movable part to move relative to the sensor, so that the sensor obtains a changing detection signal due to the relative movement between the movable part and the sensor, and then enables the control unit to obtain the movement displacement and / or movement direction of the movable part according to the detection signal, and provide control instructions for the corresponding zoom of the camera, thereby allowing the user to achieve manual focusing through the movable part, which not only allows the user to have more freedom in controlling the imaging effect of the photographic image, but also allows the user to have a photo-taking experience closer to that of a professional camera, thereby meeting user needs and enhancing user participation, playability and other usage experiences.
[0141] See also Fig. 20 and Fig.21 , Fig. 20 is a schematic diagram of the cross-sectional structure of the camera zoom component 420 in some other embodiments of the present application, Fig.21 yes Fig. 20 An enlarged schematic diagram of the structure of the C area of the camera zoom component 420 in the embodiment. The camera zoom component 420 may include a base 421, a camera (not shown in the figure) arranged on the base 421, a movable part 423, a sensor 424 and a lens 425. Among them, the sensor 424 may be a photosensitive device. The photosensitive device may be an optical tracking device, which calculates the movement distance and direction of the movable part 423 by capturing the texture on the surface of the movable part 423, and compares and calculates the displacement of the texture to obtain the rotation angle and / or rotation direction of the movable part 423. Among them, the photosensitive device can establish a signal connection with the CPU of the electronic device to send the obtained information to the CPU of the electronic device, so that the CPU of the electronic device can obtain the movement displacement and / or movement direction of the movable part 423 according to the signal detected by the photosensitive device; further, the CPU of the electronic device can also provide a control instruction for the corresponding zoom of the camera according to the signal detected by the photosensitive device, so that the user can realize the manual focus function.
[0142] Specifically, the base 421 may be a plate-like structural member, or may be in other shapes, and reference may be made to the specific description in the aforementioned embodiments. The base 421 may have a first surface 401 and a second surface 402 opposite to each other, and a through hole 4210. The two ends of the through hole 4210 are respectively connected to the first surface 401 and the second surface 402. The camera may be assembled in the through hole 4210, and the lens 425 is disposed on the side of the first surface 401 away from the second surface 402, and opposite to the light incident surface of the camera. Among them, the lens 425 may be connected and fixed to the base 421 by means of screwing, bonding, welding, or clamping.
[0143] Since the first surface 401 is the appearance surface of the electronic device 400, the movable member 423 can be disposed on the first surface 401 of the base 421, so that the user can manually operate the movable member 423. The movable member 423 can be disposed on the first surface 401 of the base 421 and rotatably connected to the base 421.
[0144] In addition, in some embodiments, the lens 425 can be connected and fixed to the movable member 423 by screwing, bonding, welding, or clamping. When the lens 425 is fixedly connected to the movable member 423, the movable member 423 rotates relative to the base 421 to drive the lens 425 to rotate relative to the base 421.
[0145] In one embodiment, the base 421 may also have a light-transmitting portion 4211, and the movable part 423 covers the light-transmitting portion 4211 on the base 421. The sensor 424, i.e., the light-sensing device, is disposed on one side of the second surface 402 of the base 421 and is disposed opposite to the light-transmitting portion 4211. The light emitted by the sensor 424, i.e., the light-sensing device, can reach the movable part 423 via the light-transmitting portion 4211 and be reflected. The reflected light can reach the sensor 424, i.e., the light-sensing device, via the light-transmitting portion 4211. The sensor 424, i.e., the light-sensing device, can also send the acquired detection signal to the CPU of the electronic device to acquire the rotation angle and / or rotation direction of the movable part 423. Furthermore, the CPU of the electronic device can also provide a control instruction for controlling the zoom of the camera according to the received detection signal.
[0146] The light-transmitting portion 4211 may be a through hole formed on the base 421, so as to serve as the optical path required for the sensor 424, i.e., the light sensing device, to work. Optionally, the light-transmitting portion 4211 may also be a light-transmitting area formed on the base 421, i.e., the base 421 may have a partially transparent area to form the light-transmitting portion 4211, which may then serve as the optical path required for the sensor 424, i.e., the light sensing device, to work.
[0147] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the base 421 may be made of a transparent material.
[0148] The movable member 423 is disposed on the first surface 401 of the base 421 and covers the light-transmitting portion 4211 to reflect the light emitted by the sensor 424, i.e., the light sensing device. The sensor 424, i.e., the light sensing device, further sends the acquired light information to the CPU of the electronic device, so that the CPU of the electronic device can acquire the movement information of the movable member 423, and the movement information of the movable member 423 may be a movement displacement and / or a movement direction.
[0149] It is understandable that when the movable member 423 moves relative to the base 421 , the movable member 423 continues to cover the light-transmitting portion 4211 and moves relative to the light-transmitting portion 4211 , so that the sensor 424 , ie, the light-sensing device, can capture the surface texture on the movable member 423 .
[0150] like Fig.19 As shown, the base 421 can be in the shape of a plate. The base 421 is arranged on the cover plate 410 and completely covers the light-transmitting portion 411 on the cover plate 410, and the base 421 has a light-transmitting hole 4210 opposite to the light-transmitting portion 411. The movable part 423 is arranged on the side of the base 421 away from the cover plate 410, and can move relative to the cover plate 410. Among them, the lens 425 is arranged on the base 421 and covers the light-transmitting hole 4210. The outer periphery of the base 421 overlaps the cover plate 410 and is connected to the cover plate 410. The sensor 424, that is, the photosensitive device, is arranged on one side of the second surface 402 of the base 421, and is located in the light-transmitting portion 411 of the cover plate 410, so as to be arranged opposite to the light-transmitting portion 4211.
[0151] Of course, in other embodiments, the base 421 may be in a ring shape, and its ring-shaped hollow area forms the above-mentioned light-through hole 4210. The ring-shaped outer peripheral edge of the base 421 overlaps and connects with the cover plate 410. At the same time, the sensor 424, i.e., the light-sensing device, is disposed on one side of the second surface 402 of the base 421 and is located in the light-through portion 411 of the cover plate 410, so as to be disposed opposite to the light-transmitting portion 4211.
[0152] Combined with reference Fig. 22 , Fig. 22 4 is a schematic diagram of the structural disassembly of the camera zoom component 420 in other embodiments of the present application. An annular groove 4212 is provided on the first surface 401 of the base 421, and the movable part 423 can be embedded in the annular groove 4212 and can rotate along the annular groove 4212. Among them, the annular groove 4212 may include an annular outer wall 42121 and an annular inner wall 42122 arranged opposite to each other, and a bottom wall 42123 connecting the annular outer wall 42121 and the annular inner wall 42122. The light-transmitting portion 4211 may be formed on the bottom wall 42123 of the annular groove 4212. The sensor 424, i.e., the light-sensing device, is arranged on the side of the base 221 away from the movable part 223, and is arranged opposite to the light-transmitting portion 4211.
[0153] Of course, in other embodiments, the light-transmitting portion 4211 may be formed on the annular outer wall 42121 or the annular inner wall 42122 of the annular groove 4212. When the light-transmitting portion 4211 is formed on the annular outer wall 42121 of the annular groove 4212, the sensor 424, i.e., the light-sensing device, may be disposed on the side of the annular outer wall 42121 away from the annular inner wall 42122. When the light-transmitting portion 4211 is formed on the annular inner wall 42122 of the annular groove 4212, the sensor 424, i.e., the light-sensing device, may be disposed on the side of the annular inner wall 42122 away from the annular outer wall 42121.
[0154] In one embodiment, the camera zoom component 420 may further include a first engaging member 426, which may be annular and embedded in the annular groove 4212. In other words, the first engaging member 426 is disposed between the annular outer wall 42121 and the annular inner wall 42122 of the annular groove 4212, and may abut against the bottom wall 42123. Further, the movable member 423 may be annular and sleeved on the first engaging member 426. The first engaging member 426 may be interference-fitted with the annular groove 4212 of the base 421 to achieve positioning, and the movable member 423 may rotate relative to the first engaging member 426.
[0155] Of course, in other embodiments, the first engaging member 426 may also be connected and fixed to the annular groove 4212 of the base 421 by means of screw connection, bonding, welding, or clamping.
[0156] The first engaging member 426 may be disposed between the bottom wall 42123 and the movable member 423, that is, the opposite sides of the first engaging member 426 respectively contact the bottom wall 42123 and the movable member 423. Of course, in other embodiments, the first engaging member 426 and the movable member 423 may be disposed side by side between the annular outer wall 42121 and the annular inner wall 42122, and may respectively contact the bottom wall 42123 of the annular groove 4212.
[0157] Optionally, the first engaging member 426 has a light-transmitting area opposite to the light-transmitting portion 4211, so that the light emitted by the sensor 424, i.e., the photosensitive device, can pass through the light-transmitting portion 4211 and the light-transmitting area of the first engaging member 426 in sequence to reach the movable member 423, and the light reflected by the movable member 423 can pass through the light-transmitting area of the first engaging member 426 and the light-transmitting portion 4211 in sequence to reach the sensor 424, i.e., the photosensitive device.
[0158] It can be understood that the light-transmitting area of the first engaging member 426 can be a light-transmitting hole formed on the first engaging member 426 and connected to the light-transmitting portion 4211, so as to serve as the optical path required for the sensor 424, i.e., the light-sensing device, to work. Alternatively, the light-transmitting area of the first engaging member 426 can also be a transparent area formed on the first engaging member 426, i.e., the first engaging member 426 can have a partially transparent area to serve as the optical path required for the sensor 424, i.e., the light-sensing device, to work. In addition, in some embodiments, the first engaging member 426 can be made of a transparent material.
[0159] Optionally, the outer side of the movable part 423 may be provided with striped protrusions or a frosted surface, so that the user has better stability and usage experience when performing a rotation operation on the movable part 423 .
[0160] In one embodiment, a first buckle portion 4261 is provided on the first engaging member 426, and a second buckle portion 4262 is provided on the movable member 423, and the first buckle portion 4261 and the second buckle portion 4262 cooperate to guide the movable member 423 to rotate relative to the first engaging member 426. The first buckle portion 4261 can be provided on a side of the first buckle member 426 away from the bottom wall 42123 and extend in a direction away from the bottom wall 42123. The second buckle portion 4262 extends from the movable member 423 toward a direction close to the annular inner wall 42122 and is buckled with the first buckle portion 4261. It can be understood that one of the first buckle portion 4261 and the second buckle portion 4262 can be a protruding structure, and the other can be a hook structure, and the two cooperate to guide the movable member 423 to move relative to the first engaging member 426.
[0161] Optionally, there may be multiple first buckle portions 4261, and the multiple first buckle portions 4261 are evenly distributed in the circumferential direction of the first engaging member 426. The second buckle portion 4262 is an annular protrusion provided on the inner wall of the movable member 423. Optionally, the first buckle portion 4261 may be annular.
[0162] Combined with reference Fig. 20 , Fig. 22 and Fig.23 , Fig.23 yes Fig. 20 An enlarged structural diagram of the D region of the camera zoom component 220 in the embodiment. A first positioning portion 4263 is provided on one of the first engaging member 426 and the bottom wall 42123 of the annular groove 4212, and a first positioning hole 4264 corresponding to the first positioning portion 4263 is provided on the other. The first positioning portion 4263 is embedded in the first positioning hole 4264 to position the first engaging member 426.

[0163] It can be understood that the first positioning hole 4264 can be a through hole or a slot.
[0164] See again Figure 20 to Figure 23 The camera zoom component 420 may further include a second engaging member 427, which is annular and contacts the annular inner wall 42122 of the annular groove 4212.

The first engaging member 426 and the movable member 423 are both disposed around the periphery of the second engaging member 427, and the second engaging member 427 is disposed around the outer periphery of the lens 425.
[0165] Specifically, the first engaging member 426 is sleeved on the periphery of the second engaging member 427. In the direction in which the annular inner wall 42122 is away from the bottom wall 42123, the height of the second engaging member 427 protruding from the annular inner wall 42122 is greater than the height of the first engaging member 426 protruding from the annular inner wall 42122. The portion of the second engaging member 427 protruding from the annular inner wall 42122 abuts against the portion of the first engaging member 426 protruding from the annular inner wall 42122.
[0166] One end of the movable member 423 abuts against the annular outer wall 42121 of the annular groove 4212. The first engaging member 426 protrudes from the annular groove 4212 and is disposed between the movable member 423 and the second engaging member 427. In other words, the opposite sides of the first buckle portion 4261 abut against the second buckle portion 4262 and the second engaging member 427, respectively.
[0167] In one embodiment, one end of the movable member 423 away from the annular outer wall 42121 is arranged around one end of the second engaging member 427 away from the annular inner wall 42122. The camera zoom component 420 may further include a sealing member 428 disposed between the second engaging member 427 and the movable member 423, the sealing member 428 being annular and sleeved on the second engaging member 427.

Optionally, the outer side of the movable member 720 may be provided with a striped protrusion or a frosted surface, so that the user has better stability and use experience when performing a rotation operation on the movable member 720. When the movable member 720 and the guide groove 713 are stripe-shaped, the side of the portion of the movable member 720 protruding from the guide groove 713 away from the guide groove 713 is the outer side of the movable member 720.
[0218] Of course, in other embodiments, the structural setting of the guide groove 713 can be eliminated on the first surface 711 of the protective shell 710. For example, a boss structure can be provided on the first surface 711 of the protective shell 710, and the movable part 720 can be sleeved on the above-mentioned boss and can rotate around the boss. For another example, a strip protrusion can be provided on the first surface 711 of the protective shell 710, and the movable part 720 can be slidably connected to the strip protrusion so that the movable part 720 can move relative to the protective shell 710. For another example, a surrounding wall structure can be convexly provided on the first surface 711 of the protective shell 710, and the surrounding wall structure can be surrounded to form a ring shape or a line shape, etc., and the movable part 720 can be slidably connected to the surrounding wall structure so that the movable part 720 can move relative to the protective shell 710.

The protective shell assembly 700 may also include a circuit board 730 disposed on the protective shell 710, and a sensor 740 may be disposed on the circuit board 730. When the movable part 720 moves relative to the protective shell 710, the movable part 720 can move relative to the sensor 740, so that the sensor 740 can obtain the movement displacement and / or movement direction information of the movable part 720. Among them, the circuit board 730 can be disposed on the second surface 712 of the protective shell 710, and the sensor 740 is disposed on a side of the circuit board 730 close to the protective shell 710, and is electrically connected to the circuit board 730.
[0220] Specifically, the circuit board 730 can be connected and fixed to the protective shell 710 by means of screw connection, bonding, welding, or clamping, so that the circuit board 730 is positioned and fixed on the protective shell 710. The sensor 740 can be arranged on the circuit board 730 and embedded in the protective shell 710 from the second surface 712 of the protective shell 710. Optionally, the second surface 712 of the protective shell 710 can be provided with an assembly groove 714, and when the circuit board 730 is arranged on the second surface 712 of the protective shell 710, the sensor 740 on the circuit board 730 can enter the assembly groove 714, so that the sensor 740 can be prevented from occupying the thickness space of the protective shell assembly 700.
[0221] The assembly groove 714 is arranged opposite to the guide groove 713, so that the sensing surface of the sensor 740 is opposite to the end of the movable member 720 close to the bottom wall 7133, so that the sensor 740 can detect the movement of the movable member 720. Of course, in other embodiments, when the structural setting of the guide groove 713 is cancelled, the detection surface of the sensor 740 can be opposite to the end of the movable member 720 close to the circuit board 730, so that the sensor 740 can detect the movement of the movable member 720.
[0222] In addition, in some embodiments, the circuit board 730 can be disposed on the first surface 711 of the protective shell 710 or embedded in the protective shell 710, and the sensor 740 can be disposed on a side of the circuit board 730 close to the movable part 720 so that the sensor 740 can detect the movement of the movable part 720.
[0223] In one embodiment, the circuit board 730 is disposed on the second surface 712 of the protective shell 710. The protective shell assembly 700 may also include a shielding member 750 disposed on the side of the circuit board 730 away from the protective shell 710, and the shielding member 750 covers the circuit board 730 so that the protective shell assembly 700 has a better appearance consistency. Among them, when the protective shell assembly 700 is sleeved on the electronic device 100, the shielding member 750 is in contact with the electronic device 100. Optionally, the shielding member 750 can be made of materials such as rubber, silicone, leather or plastic to avoid direct hard contact between the shielding member 750 and the electronic device 100 and the hidden danger of damaging the electronic device 100.
[0224] It can be understood that the present application mainly obtains the movement displacement and / or movement direction of the movable part 720 through the sensor 740, and then sends the relevant information obtained by the sensor 740 to the CPU of the electronic device 100, so that the CPU of the electronic device 100 can provide control instructions such as controlling camera focus, e-book page turning, web browsing or volume adjustment based on the relevant information sent by the sensor 740. Based on this, the following further describes the implementation method of the sensor 740 obtaining the movement displacement and / or movement direction of the movable part 720.
[0225] The ring-shaped movable member 720 is taken as an example for illustrative description. Other shapes of the movable member 720 can be directly derived from the corresponding implementation manner by referring to the implementation manner of the ring-shaped movable member 720 .
[0226] In one embodiment, the sensor 740 may be a photosensitive device, and the protective shell 710 may have a light-transmitting portion 715 arranged opposite to the photosensitive device. The movable part 720 is covered on the light-transmitting portion 715 and can move relative to the light-transmitting portion 715. The light emitted by the sensor 740 can reach the movable part 720 via the light-transmitting portion 715 and be reflected, and the light reflected by the movable part 720 can reach the sensor 740 via the light-transmitting portion 715 to obtain the movement displacement and / or movement direction of the movable part 720. It can be understood that the photosensitive device can be an optical tracking device, which can capture the texture on the surface of the movable part 720, compare and calculate the displacement of the texture to calculate the movement distance and direction of the movable part 720, and then obtain the movement displacement and / or movement direction of the movable part 720.
[0227] Among them, the photosensitive device can be connected to the CPU of the electronic device by signal to send the acquired information to the CPU, so that the CPU can obtain the movement displacement and / or movement direction of the movable part 720 according to the received information, and can provide control instructions for functions such as controlling camera focus, e-book page turning, web browsing or volume adjustment.
[0228] The light-transmitting portion 715 may be a through hole formed on the protective shell 710 to serve as the optical path required for the photosensitive device to work. Optionally, the light-transmitting portion 715 may also be a light-transmitting area formed on the protective shell 710, that is, the protective shell 710 may have a partially transparent area to form the light-transmitting portion 715, which may then serve as the optical path required for the photosensitive device to work. In addition, in some embodiments, the protective shell 710 may be made of a transparent material.
[0229] The movable member 720 is disposed on the first surface 711 of the protective shell 710 and covers the light-transmitting portion 715 to reflect the light emitted by the photosensitive device so that the photosensitive device can obtain the movement information of the movable member 720. The movement information of the movable member 720 can be the movement displacement and / or the movement direction. It can be understood that when the movable member 720 moves relative to the protective shell 710, the movable member 720 continues to cover the light-transmitting portion 715 and moves relative to the light-transmitting portion 715, so that the photosensitive device can capture the surface texture on the movable member 720.
[0230] Optionally, when the movable part 720 is embedded in the guide groove 713 and can move along the guide groove 713, and the guide groove 713 is an annular groove, the movement information of the movable part 720 can be the rotation angle and / or rotation direction of the movable part 720 relative to the protective shell 710. Further, the light-transmitting portion 715 can be formed on the bottom wall 7133 of the guide groove 713. The photosensitive device is arranged on the side of the protective shell 710 away from the movable part 720, and is arranged opposite to the light-transmitting portion 715. Of course, in other embodiments, the light-transmitting portion 715 can be formed on the first side wall 7131 or the second side wall 7132 of the guide groove 713. When the light-transmitting portion 715 can be formed on the first side wall 7131 of the guide groove 713, the photosensitive device can be arranged on the side of the first side wall 7131 away from the second side wall 7132. When the light-transmitting portion 715 may be formed on the second side wall 7132 of the guide groove 713 , the light sensing device may be disposed on a side of the second side wall 7132 away from the first side wall 7131 .
[0231] like Fig.34 As shown, the light-transmitting portion 715 may be a through hole formed on the bottom wall 7133 of the guide groove 713 , which may serve as a light path required for the photosensitive device to work.
[0232] See also Fig.35 , Fig.35 It is an enlarged schematic diagram of the local structure of the protective shell assembly 700 in other embodiments of the present application, wherein the light-transmitting portion 715 may be a through hole formed on the bottom wall 7133 of the guide groove 713 .
[0233] Furthermore, the protective shell assembly 700 may further include a transparent member 760 disposed in the through hole, and the light emitted by the sensor 740 may reach the movable member 720 via the transparent member 760 and be reflected, and the light reflected by the movable member 720 may reach the sensor 740 via the transparent member 760 to obtain the movement displacement and / or movement direction of the movable member 720. The transparent member 760 may be a transparent structural member such as transparent glass or transparent resin.
[0234] Among them, the transparent part 760 can be installed in the through hole by means of bonding, snap-on or screwing. It can be understood that the terms "installation", "connection" and the like in this application should be understood in a broad sense unless otherwise clearly specified and limited. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection, or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal connection of two components. For those skilled in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in this article can be understood according to specific circumstances. The detailed technical features of the structure of other parts of the electronic device 100 are within the scope of understanding of those skilled in the art, so this application will not go into details.
[0235] As mentioned above, the movable part 720 is arranged on the first surface 711 of the protective shell 710 and is movably connected to the protective shell 710. The light-transmitting portion 715 is a through-hole structure. At this time, by arranging a transparent part 760 in the through-hole and making the outer peripheral edge of the transparent part 760 sealed and connected to the inner wall of the through-hole, external foreign matter can be prevented from entering the sensor 740 and the circuit board 730 through the gap between the movable part 720 and the protective shell 710.
[0236] See again Fig.31 , a power supply device 770 and a communication device 780 may also be provided on the circuit board 730, and the power supply device 770 and the communication device 780 are electrically connected to the circuit board 730 respectively. Among them, the power supply device 770 is configured to supply power to the sensor 740, and the communication device 780 is configured to establish a signal connection with the electronic device 200. Optionally, the communication device 780 may be a wireless signal transmission module provided on the circuit board 730, for example, it may be a Wifi module, a Bluetooth module and / or other wireless communication modules. It can be understood that by providing the communication device 780 on the circuit board 730, the circuit board 730 can establish a signal connection with the CPU of the electronic device 100 through the communication device 780.
[0237] Furthermore, the power supply device 770 may be a wireless charging device disposed on the circuit board 730, for example, a wireless charging coil. When the protective shell 710 is mounted on the electronic device 100, the circuit board 730 establishes a signal connection with the electronic device 100 through the communication device 780. At this time, the electronic device 100 may wirelessly charge the power supply device 770 to provide power for the operation of the sensor 740. Of course, in other embodiments, the power supply device 770 may be a device capable of providing power, such as a power supply battery.
[0238] As mentioned above, the circuit board 730 establishes a signal connection with the electronic device 100 in a wireless manner. Of course, in other embodiments, the circuit board 730 can establish a signal connection with the electronic device 100 by direct contact connection. For example, the protective shell assembly 700 can have contacts electrically connected to the circuit board 730, and the contacts are exposed on the second surface 712 of the protective shell 710. The electronic device 100 may be provided with connection positions corresponding to the above contacts. When the protective shell 710 is mounted on the electronic device 100, the above contacts are matched and connected with the corresponding connection positions on the electronic device 100 to achieve the above signal connection.
[0239] The protective shell assembly and electronic device assembly provided in the embodiment of the present application, by setting a movable part and a circuit board on the protective shell, and setting a sensor on the circuit board, when the movable part moves relative to the sensor, the sensor can obtain the movement displacement and / or movement direction of the movable part, thereby enriching the use function and playability of the protective shell assembly. In addition, the circuit board can transmit the information obtained by the sensor to the CPU of the electronic device, so that the CPU can focus the camera of the electronic device, thereby allowing the user to realize the manual focus function, which not only allows the user to control the imaging effect of the photographic image more freely, but also allows the user to have a photo taking experience closer to that of a professional camera, meeting the user's needs.
[0240] In addition, in some other application scenarios, when the user does not need to take pictures, the information obtained by the sensor can also be sent to the CPU, and the CPU can be used to implement adjustment functions such as turning pages of e-books, browsing web pages, or adjusting volume. In other words, the movable part can be used as a focusing structure to implement the focusing function and / or an adjustment structure to implement the above-mentioned adjustment functions, which can meet the user's usage needs in different application scenarios.
[0241] It can be understood that the CPU of the electronic device 100 can realize the automatic focusing function of the camera through a preset algorithm. The present application can realize the manual focusing function of the camera of the electronic device 100 through the protective shell assembly 700, thereby enriching the photographer's fun, sense of participation and playability when shooting.
[0242] See also Fig.36 , Fig.36 7 is a schematic diagram of the partial structural disassembly of the protective shell assembly 700 in other embodiments of the present application. Among them, the sensor 740 can be a Hall sensor provided on the circuit board 730, and the movable part 720 can be provided with a magnet 721. When the movable part 720 moves relative to the sensor 740, the distance between the magnet 721 and the sensor 740 gradually changes, so that the magnetic field strength of the magnet 721 detected by the sensor 740 gradually changes, and then the movement displacement and / or movement direction of the movable part 720 can be obtained according to the magnetic field strength detected by the sensor 740.
[0243] The magnet 721 may be disposed opposite to the sensor 740 or adjacent to the sensor 740 so that the sensor 740 can detect the magnetic field strength of the magnet 721. For example, the magnet 721 may be disposed on the end of the movable member 720 close to the circuit board 730 and disposed opposite to the sensor 740.
[0244] Optionally, the movable member 720 can move relative to the sensor 740, so that the magnet 721 can move relative to the sensor 740. When the magnet 721 moves relative to the sensor 740, the distance between the magnet 721 and the sensor 740 gradually changes, so that the magnetic field strength of the magnet 721 detected by the sensor 740 gradually changes, thereby obtaining the movement displacement and / or movement direction of the movable member 720.
[0245] Optionally, the movable member 720 can rotate around the sensor 740, so that the magnet 721 can rotate around the sensor 740. When the magnet 721 rotates around the sensor 740, the distance between the magnet 721 and the sensor 740 gradually changes, so that the magnetic field strength of the magnet 721 detected by the sensor 740 gradually changes, and the rotation angle and / or rotation direction of the movable member 720 can be obtained.
[0246] The sensor 740 can achieve signal connection with the CPU through the circuit board 730 to transmit the detected signal to the CPU, so that the CPU can provide focusing control instructions according to the received signal.
[0247] Optionally, the material of the protective shell 710 is a non-magnetic material, such as plastic, so as to avoid affecting the magnetic field strength of the magnet 721 sensed by the sensor 740 .
[0248] In some embodiments, the sensor 740 may be provided with one, and in the process that the movable part 720 drives the magnet 721 to move relative to the sensor 740, the moving track of the magnet 721 may be circular, and the sensor 740 can only obtain the moving displacement of the movable part 720 according to the change of the magnetic field strength, and it is difficult to determine the moving direction of the movable part 720. In addition, the moving track of the magnet 721 may be linear, and the sensor 740 can obtain the moving displacement and moving direction of the movable part 720 according to the change of the magnetic field strength.
[0249] In some embodiments, two Hall sensors 740 may be provided, and the two Hall sensor 740 shells are arranged in sequence and spaced apart in the moving direction of the magnet 721. When the movable part 720 drives the magnet 721 to move relative to the Hall sensor 740, the magnetic induction intensities sensed by the two Hall sensors 740 are different, so that the rotation direction and rotation angle of the movable part 720 can be obtained through the change trend of the magnetic induction intensities detected by the two Hall sensors 740. Fig.36 As shown, take the case where the Hall sensor 740a and the Hall sensor 740b are arranged in sequence in the rotation direction of the magnet 721. In the initial state, when the magnetic field strength detected by the Hall sensor 740a is less than the magnetic field strength detected by the Hall sensor 740b, it is considered that the distance between the Hall sensor 740a and the magnet 721 is greater than the distance between the Hall sensor 740b and the magnet 721. When the initial state is defined, the Hall sensor 740b is arranged opposite to the magnet 721, that is, at this time, the distance between the Hall sensor 740b and the magnet 721 is the minimum value.
[0250] During the process of magnet 721 rotating around Hall sensor 740b for one circle, the magnetic field strength detected by Hall sensor 740b during the first half of the rotation of magnet 721 gradually decreases, and the magnetic field strength detected by Hall sensor 740b during the second half of the rotation of magnet 721 gradually increases. That is, magnet 721 first rotates to the position where the distance between it and Hall sensor 740b is the maximum value, at which time the magnetic field strength detected by Hall sensor 740a is the trough value; then magnet 721 rotates to the position where the distance between it and Hall sensor 740b is the minimum value, i.e., the initial position, at which time the magnetic field strength detected by Hall sensor 740a is the peak value.
[0251] At the same time, when the magnet 721 rotates in the clockwise direction S, in the process of the magnet 721 rotating around the Hall sensor 740b for one circle, the magnetic field strength detected by the Hall sensor 740a shows a trend of gradually increasing to a peak value, then gradually decreasing to a trough value, and finally gradually increasing. That is, the magnet 721 first rotates to a position where the distance between it and the Hall sensor 740a is the minimum, at which time the magnetic field strength detected by the Hall sensor 740a is the peak value, and then the magnet 721 rotates to a position where the distance between it and the Hall sensor 740a is the maximum, at which time the magnetic field strength detected by the Hall sensor 740a is the trough value. When the magnet 721 rotates in the counterclockwise direction N, in the process of the magnet 721 rotating around the Hall sensor 740b for one circle, the magnetic field strength detected by the Hall sensor 740a shows a trend of gradually decreasing, decreasing to a trough value, gradually increasing to a peak value, and finally gradually decreasing. That is, the magnet 721 first rotates to a position where the distance between the magnet 721 and the Hall sensor 740a is the maximum value, at which time the magnetic field strength detected by the Hall sensor 740a is the trough value, and then the magnet 721 rotates to a position where the distance between the magnet 721 and the Hall sensor 740a is the minimum value, at which time the magnetic field strength detected by the Hall sensor 740a is the peak value.
[0252] In summary, the rotation angle and rotation direction of the movable part 720 can be obtained according to the magnetic field strength and its change trend detected by the Hall sensor 740a and the Hall sensor 740b.
[0253] In some embodiments, three Hall sensors 740 may be provided, and the three Hall sensors 740 shells are arranged in sequence and at intervals in the moving direction of the magnet 721. When the movable part 720 drives the magnet 721 to move relative to the Hall sensors 740, the magnetic induction intensities sensed by the three Hall sensors 740 are different, so that the rotation direction and rotation angle of the movable part 720 can be obtained through the change trend of the magnetic induction intensities detected by the three Hall sensors 740. Figure 7 As shown, take the example that Hall sensor 740a, Hall sensor 740b, and Hall sensor 740c are arranged in sequence in the rotation direction of magnet 721. It is defined that in the initial state, Hall sensor 740b is arranged opposite to magnet 721, that is, the distance between Hall sensor 740b and magnet 721 is the minimum value at this time. Hall sensor 740a and Hall sensor 740c are located on both sides of Hall sensor 740b. That is, the distance between Hall sensor 740a, Hall sensor 740c and magnet 721 is greater than the distance between Hall sensor 740b and magnet 721.
[0254] During the process of magnet 721 rotating around Hall sensor 740b for one circle, the magnetic field strength detected by Hall sensor 740b during the first half of the rotation of magnet 721 gradually decreases to a trough value, and the magnetic field strength detected by Hall sensor 740b during the second half of the rotation of magnet 721 gradually increases to a peak value. That is, magnet 721 first rotates to a position where the distance between it and Hall sensor 740b is the maximum value, at which time the magnetic field strength detected by Hall sensor 740a is a trough value; then magnet 721 rotates to a position where the distance between it and Hall sensor 740b is the minimum value, i.e., the initial position, at which time the magnetic field strength detected by Hall sensor 740a is a peak value.
[0255] At the same time, when the magnet 721 rotates in the clockwise direction S, in the process of the magnet 721 rotating around the Hall sensor 740b for one circle, the magnetic field strength detected by the Hall sensor 740a shows a trend of gradually increasing to a peak value, then gradually decreasing to a trough value, and finally gradually increasing; the magnet 721 first rotates to a position where the distance between the magnet 721 and the Hall sensor 740a is the minimum value, and the magnetic field strength detected by the Hall sensor 740a is the peak value; then the magnet 721 rotates to a position where the distance between the magnet 721 and the Hall sensor 740a is the maximum value, and the magnetic field strength detected by the Hall sensor 740a is the trough value. The magnetic field strength detected by the Hall sensor 740c shows a trend of gradually decreasing, decreasing to a trough value, then gradually increasing to a peak value, and finally gradually decreasing; the magnet 721 first rotates to a position where the distance between the magnet 721 and the Hall sensor 740c is the maximum value, and the magnetic field strength detected by the Hall sensor 740c is the trough value; then the magnet 721 rotates to a position where the distance between the magnet 721 and the Hall sensor 740c is the minimum value, and the magnetic field strength detected by the Hall sensor 740c is the peak value.
[0256] When the magnet 721 rotates in the counterclockwise direction N, in the process of the magnet 721 rotating around the Hall sensor 740b for one circle, the magnetic field strength detected by the Hall sensor 740a shows a trend of gradually decreasing, decreasing to a trough value, then gradually increasing to a peak value, and finally gradually decreasing; the magnet 721 first rotates to a position where the distance between the magnet 721 and the Hall sensor 740a is the maximum value, and the magnetic field strength detected by the Hall sensor 740a is the trough value; then the magnet 721 rotates to a position where the distance between the magnet 721 and the Hall sensor 740a is the minimum value, and the magnetic field strength detected by the Hall sensor 740a is the peak value. The magnetic field strength detected by the Hall sensor 740c shows a trend of gradually increasing to a peak value, then gradually decreasing to a trough value, and finally gradually increasing; the magnet 721 first rotates to a position where the distance between the magnet 721 and the Hall sensor 740c is the minimum value, and the magnetic field strength detected by the Hall sensor 740c is the peak value; then the magnet 721 rotates to a position where the distance between the magnet 721 and the Hall sensor 740c is the maximum value, and the magnetic field strength detected by the Hall sensor 740c is the trough value.
[0257] In summary, the movement displacement (for example, rotation angle) and / or movement direction (for example, rotation direction) of the movable part 720 can be obtained based on the magnetic field strength and its changing trend detected by multiple Hall sensors 740 (for example, Hall sensor 740a, Hall sensor 740b, Hall sensor 740c) distributed in sequence in the movement direction of the magnet 721.
[0258] As mentioned above, the guide groove 713 has a first side wall 7131 and a second side wall 7132 disposed opposite to each other, and a bottom wall 7133 connecting the first side wall 7131 and the second side wall 7132. When one end of the movable member 720 is embedded in the guide groove 713, the magnet 721 can be disposed on the end of the movable member 720 embedded in the guide groove 713.
[0259] The protective shell assembly and the electronic device assembly provided in the embodiments of the present application, by arranging a movable part and a circuit board on the protective shell, and arranging a sensor on the circuit board, when the movable part moves relative to the sensor, the sensor obtains a changing detection signal due to the relative movement between the movable part and the sensor, and can send the detection signal to the CPU of the electronic device, so that the CPU of the electronic device can obtain the movement displacement and / or movement direction of the movable part according to the detection signal, and provide control instructions for the corresponding zoom of the camera, thereby allowing the user to achieve manual focusing through the movable part, which not only allows the user to have more freedom in controlling the imaging effect of the photographic image, but also allows the user to have a photo-taking experience closer to that of a professional camera, thereby meeting user needs and enhancing user participation, playability and other usage experiences.
[0260] In addition, the CPU of the electronic device can also provide other control instructions such as controlling the turning of e-book pages, web browsing or volume adjustment according to the detection signal.
[0261] It can be understood that the CPU of the electronic device 100 can realize the automatic focusing function of the camera through a preset algorithm. The present application can also realize the manual focusing function of the camera of the electronic device 100 through the protective shell assembly 700, thereby enriching the photographer's fun, sense of participation and playability when shooting.
[0262] It should be noted that the sensors in the above embodiments are illustrated by taking photosensitive devices and Hall sensors as examples, but are not limited thereto. For example, in some other implementations, the sensor may also be an infrared sensing device, an electromagnetic sensing device, or other structural device that can sense the movement of an object.
