[0027] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field based on the embodiments in the present application belong to the scope of protection of this application.

[0028] The terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification and claims of the present application are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the data used in this way can be interchangeable under appropriate circumstances, so that the embodiments of the present application can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described here. In addition, the "and / or" in the specification and claims represents at least one of the connected objects, and the character " / " generally represents that the objects associated with each other are in an "or" relationship.

[0029] The electronic device provided in the embodiment of the present application is described in detail below through specific embodiments and application scenarios in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0030] Please refer to Figures 1 to 20 An embodiment of the present application discloses an electronic device, which includes a housing 100 and a camera decoration assembly 200 .

[0031] The housing 100 provides a mounting base for other components of the electronic device. The housing 100 is provided with a light-through opening 101. The light-through opening 101 here is used to expose the camera module of the electronic device, and it can also be understood that external light enters the camera module through the light-through opening 101. Specifically, the housing 100 has an inner cavity, and the inner cavity is used to install components such as circuit boards and camera modules of the electronic device. Therefore, the light-through opening 101 is connected to the inner cavity of the housing 100.

[0032] The camera decoration component 200 is used to decorate the camera module, thereby avoiding exposure of the camera module, thereby improving the aesthetic appearance of the electronic device. The camera decoration component 200 includes a decoration piece 210 and a lens 220. The decoration piece 210 is arranged on one side of the housing 100 and is located at the light-through opening 101. The decoration piece 210 is provided with a light-through hole 211, and the light-through hole 211 is arranged opposite to the light-through opening 101. Since the decoration piece 210 needs to cover the light-through opening 101, the decoration piece 210 is located on the outside of the housing 100, that is, the decoration piece 210 is arranged on the outer surface of the housing 100. A textured surface 212 is provided on the side of the decoration piece 210 facing away from the housing 100. Here, the surface of the decoration piece 210 facing away from the housing 100 refers to the surface of the decoration piece 210 facing the user, so that the user can see the textured surface 212.

[0033] The lens 220 is arranged on the side of the decorative part 210 away from the housing 100. At this time, the lens 220 can be bonded to the decorative part 210 by double-sided tape or glue. The lens 220 has a light-shielding area 221, a first transparent area 222, and a second transparent area 223. The light-shielding area 221 is arranged around the first transparent area 222, and the second transparent area 223 is arranged around the light-shielding area 221. At this time, the outer periphery of the second transparent area 223 cannot be light-transmitted. The first transparent area 222 is arranged opposite to the light-through hole 211. At this time, the external light passes through the first transparent area 222 and the light-through hole 211 in sequence and then enters the lens of the camera module through the light-through opening 101. The texture surface 212 is arranged opposite to the second transparent area 223. At this time, the texture surface 212 is exposed through the second transparent area 223, so the user can see the texture surface 212 through the second transparent area 223.

[0034] In the embodiment disclosed in the present application, external light can be irradiated onto the texture surface 212 through the second transparent area 223, thereby illuminating the texture surface 212. Therefore, it can be clearly observed in appearance that the shading area 221 is convex relative to the texture surface 212, and then the effect of the shading area 221 being suspended can be seen, thereby affecting the effect of the lens 220 having a suspended appearance. Therefore, the overall appearance of the camera decorative assembly 200 is more three-dimensional and diverse, thereby improving the appearance performance of the electronic device.

[0035] In addition, the shading area 221 can separate the first transparent area 222 from the second transparent area 223, thereby preventing the reflected light from the texture surface 212 from affecting the first transparent area 222, which is beneficial to improving the shooting performance of the electronic device.

[0036] The texture surface 212 in the above embodiment includes a plurality of protrusions arranged in an annular array, and depressions are formed between the connected protrusions, so that a light and dark intersecting structure can be achieved. Alternatively, the texture surface 212 can also be a knurled surface, and the specific structure of the texture surface 212 is not limited herein.

[0037] Optionally, the lens 220 can be made of transparent glass or transparent resin, etc. A light shielding layer is coated on the lens 220 or an ink silk-screen printing area is provided to form a light shielding area 221 .

[0038] In another optional solution, a groove 213 may be formed on the side of the decorative member 210 facing away from the housing 100, and the lens 220 may cover the notch of the groove 213. The textured surface 212 is provided on the inner side wall of the groove 213. The light hole 211 passes through the bottom wall of the groove 213. In this solution, a concave groove 213 is formed on the side of the decorative member 210 facing away from the housing 100, and the textured surface 212 is provided on the inner side wall of the groove 213, thereby further increasing the gap between the textured surface 212 and the lens 220, so that the shading area 221 is more three-dimensional in appearance, thereby having a better suspension effect of the lens 220.

[0039] Since the lens 220 is relatively thin, the lens 220 is easily deformed, which can easily cause damage to the lens 220. Based on this, in another optional solution, the camera decorative assembly 200 may also include a support portion 230, a first adhesive layer 240, and a second adhesive layer 250. The support portion 230, the first adhesive layer 240, and the second adhesive layer 250 may all be located in the groove 213. It can also be understood here that the support portion 230, the first adhesive layer 240, and the second adhesive layer 250 are located in the space formed by the decorative member 210 and the lens 220. The support portion 230 may be bonded to the light shielding area 221 of the lens 220 through the first adhesive layer 240. The support portion 230 is bonded to the bottom wall of the groove 213 through the second adhesive layer 250.

[0040] In this solution, the support portion 230 is supported between the lens 220 and the bottom wall of the groove 213, thereby improving the strength of the lens 220 and avoiding the risk of damage to the lens 220. In addition, the support portion 230 can also improve the overall strength of the camera decoration assembly 200, thereby improving the safety and reliability of the camera decoration assembly 200.

[0041] In the above embodiment, the support portion 230 may be a block structure, in which case the support portion 230 needs to avoid the position of the light-through hole 211, so as to prevent the support portion 230 from blocking the light-through hole 211. Alternatively, the support portion 230 may be an annular structure, in which case the inner ring area of ​​the support portion 230 may be opposite to both the light-through hole 211 and the first transparent area 222, so as to avoid the light-through hole 211.

[0042] In order to prevent the support portion 230 from blocking the second transparent area 223 and the first transparent area 222, in another optional solution, along the axial direction of the light-through hole 211, the orthographic projections of the support portion 230, the first adhesive layer 240, and the second adhesive layer 250 are all located within the orthographic projection of the light-shielding area 221. At this time, the edges of the support portion 230, the first adhesive layer 240, and the second adhesive layer 250 do not protrude from the edges of the light-shielding area 221, thereby avoiding blocking the second transparent area 223 and the first transparent area 222.

[0043] Optionally, the areas of the support portion 230 , the first adhesive layer 240 , and the second adhesive layer 250 are all smaller than the area of ​​the light shielding area 221 . Alternatively, the areas of the support portion 230 , the first adhesive layer 240 , and the second adhesive layer 250 are equal to the area of ​​the light shielding area 221 .

[0044] In another optional embodiment, a ventilation channel 400 may be formed between the camera decoration assembly 200 and the shell 100, one end of the ventilation channel 400 may be connected to the inner cavity of the shell 100, and the other end of the ventilation channel 400 may be connected to the external environment of the electronic device.

[0045] In this solution, the ventilation channel 400 can achieve a relative balance of the internal and external air pressure of the electronic device, thereby avoiding a sharp increase in the internal air pressure of the electronic device, so that the internal and external pressures of the electronic device are relatively balanced, and it is not easy to affect the normal use of the internal components of the electronic device, thereby improving the reliability of the electronic device.

[0046] Optionally, the ventilation channel 400 may be formed by the decorative element 210, the housing 100, and an adhesive layer therebetween. Alternatively, the ventilation channel 400 may be formed by the inner bracket 270 of the camera decorative assembly 200, the housing 100, and an adhesive layer therebetween.

[0047] In another optional solution, the ventilation channel 400 includes a first channel, a second channel and a third channel, one end of the first channel and the second channel can be connected to the external environment of the electronic device, one end of the first channel and the second channel can be connected to the third channel, and the third channel is connected to the inner cavity of the shell 100. In this case, the first channel and the third channel form a first ventilation path. The second channel and the third channel form a second ventilation path. Therefore, it can be prevented that one ventilation path is blocked under special circumstances, and the other ventilation path can work normally, so that the air pressure balance between the inner cavity of the shell 100 and the external environment of the electronic device can be always guaranteed, thereby further improving the reliability of the electronic device.

[0048] In a specific embodiment, Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the camera decorative assembly 200 may further include an inner bracket 270 and a third adhesive layer 280. The inner bracket 270 is disposed on the side of the housing 100 away from the decorative piece 210, which can be understood as the inner bracket 270 being located in the inner cavity of the housing 100. The inner bracket 270 may be attached to the surface of the housing 100 away from the decorative piece 210 through the third adhesive layer 280, which can be understood as the inner bracket 270 being bonded to the inner surface of the housing 100 through the third adhesive layer 280. The inner bracket 270 here may be connected to the decorative piece 210, thereby improving the connection strength of the entire camera decorative assembly 200.

[0049] The third adhesive layer 280 is provided with a first strip hole 281, and the inner bracket 270, the housing 100 and the first strip hole 281 can form a first main channel 410. At this time, the third adhesive layer 280 is provided with a first strip hole 281 that runs through it along its thickness direction. When the third adhesive layer 280 is bonded between the inner bracket 270 and the inner surface of the housing 100, the inner bracket 270 and the housing 100 cover the openings at both ends of the first strip hole 281, thereby forming the first main channel 410. The inner bracket 270 can be provided with a first connecting hole 271, and the first main channel 410 can be connected to the inner cavity of the housing 100 through the first connecting hole 271. The housing 100 is provided with a vent hole 102, and the first main channel 410 can be connected to the external environment of the electronic device through the vent hole 102. Here, the first main channel 410, the first connecting hole 271 and the vent hole 102 together form the above-mentioned ventilation channel 400.

[0050] In the specific ventilation process, the external environment of the electronic device is connected to the inner cavity of the housing 100 from the outside to the inside in sequence through the ventilation hole 102, the first main channel 410 and the first connecting hole 271.

[0051] In this solution, the ventilation channel 400 is designed by utilizing the stacking space between the housing 100 and the inner bracket 270 of the camera decorative assembly 200, so that the overall appearance performance of the camera decorative assembly 200 is not affected, thereby making the camera decorative assembly 200 have a better appearance performance. In addition, the ventilation channel 400 is formed by the first main channel 410, the first connecting hole 271 and the air hole 102, thereby increasing the path of the ventilation channel 400, and further, under the premise of ensuring the ventilation performance, it can also effectively prevent dust and water vapor from entering the inner cavity of the housing 100, thereby making the electronic device have better waterproof and dustproof performance.

[0052] In the above embodiment, the vent hole 102 can be located outside the edge of the decorative element 210. In this case, the user can directly see the vent hole 102, thereby affecting the appearance and performance of the electronic device. In addition, the exposed vent hole 102 will cause dust accumulation, which is easy to block the vent hole 102, and thus easily lead to the risk of ventilation failure of the ventilation channel 400.

[0053] Based on this, in another optional scheme, the camera decoration assembly 200 may also include a fourth adhesive layer 260, the fourth adhesive layer 260 and the third adhesive layer 280 may be respectively located on opposite sides of the shell 100, and the shell 100 and the decorative component 210 may be bonded through the fourth adhesive layer 260, which means here that the decorative component 210 is bonded to the outer surface of the shell 100 through the fourth adhesive layer 260.

[0054] The edge of the fourth adhesive layer 260 may be provided with a first avoidance notch 261, and the first avoidance notch 261 is arranged opposite to the vent 102. In other words, the fourth adhesive layer 260 exposes the vent 102 through the first avoidance notch 261, thereby not blocking the vent 102. It can also be understood that the vent 102 is located below the decorative element 210, and the avoidance notch is provided in the area corresponding to the fourth adhesive layer 260, thereby avoiding blocking the vent 102.

[0055] The decorative piece 210, the first avoidance notch 261 and the housing 100 can form a first gap 420 connected to the external environment of the electronic device. At this time, there is an assembly gap between the decorative piece 210 and the outer surface of the housing 100. The assembly gap here is used to attach the fourth adhesive layer 260. At the same time, the first avoidance notch 261 is opened at the local edge of the fourth adhesive layer 260. At this time, the local gap where the first avoidance notch 261 is opened is not filled with the fourth adhesive layer 260, so the local area of ​​the assembly gap is the above-mentioned first gap 420. Therefore, the first gap 420 is connected to the external environment of the electronic device. The first gap 420 here can be part of the ventilation channel 400. The first main channel 410 can be connected to the first gap 420 through the air vent 102.

[0056] In this solution, the vent hole 102 is located below the decorative element 210, so the decorative element 210 can hide the vent hole 102, thereby preventing the vent hole 102 from being exposed, thereby improving the appearance performance of the electronic device. In addition, the decorative element 210 can also block external dust and water vapor, thereby avoiding the risk of the vent hole 102 being blocked by dust, thereby avoiding the risk of ventilation failure of the ventilation channel 400.

[0057] In addition, the first gap 420 can be used as an outer channel of the ventilation channel 400, and the first main channel 410 can be used as an inner channel of the ventilation channel 400, and the inner channel and the outer channel can be connected through the air holes 102. Therefore, a bent multi-section channel structure is formed, so that the dustproof and waterproof performance of the ventilation channel 400 can be further improved.

[0058] At least two camera modules are usually provided in an electronic device. To cope with this arrangement, in another optional solution, the housing 100 may be formed with a first crossbeam 103, and the housing 100 may be provided with at least two light-transmitting openings 101, and the at least two light-transmitting openings 101 may be separated by the first crossbeam 103. In the case where the housing 100 is formed with the first crossbeam 103, the area where the third adhesive layer 280 and the inner bracket 270 are opposite to the first crossbeam 103 and the first crossbeam 103 may form the above-mentioned first main channel 410. In other words, the first main channel 410 is formed at the position where the first crossbeam 103 is located.

[0059] Specifically, the third bonding layer 280 includes a first bonding area, a second bonding area and a third bonding area. The first bonding area extends along the edge of one of the light holes 211, the third bonding area extends along the edge of another light hole 211, and the second bonding area is opposite to the first crossbeam 103. The inner bracket 270 is also correspondingly provided with an upper half, a strip portion and a lower half. The first bonding area bonds the upper half to the corresponding position of one of the light holes 211, and the third bonding area bonds the lower half to the corresponding position of the other light hole 211. The second bonding area bonds the strip portion to the first crossbeam 103. The second bonding area here is provided with the above-mentioned first strip hole 281, and the second bonding area, the first crossbeam 103 and the strip portion form the above-mentioned first main channel 410.

[0060] In this solution, the first crossbeam 103 between at least two light-through holes 211 is used to form the first main channel 410, thereby avoiding the occupation of the area of ​​the housing 100 around the decorative element 210, and thus not easily affecting the volume of the electronic device. In addition, the design of the first crossbeam 103 can be used to form the first main channel 410 and increase the structural strength of this area, thereby optimizing the structural layout of the electronic device.

[0061] Further, the number of the air holes 102 may be at least two, namely, a first air hole 1021 and a second air hole 1022. The first air hole 1021 may be located at one end of the first beam 103, and the second air hole 1022 may be located at the other end of the first beam 103. The first strip hole 281 may extend along the extension direction of the first beam 103, and the first strip hole 281 has a first port 2811 and a second port 2812 along the extension direction thereof. The first port 2811 may be connected to the first air hole 1021, and the second port 2812 may be connected to the second air hole 1022. The first communication hole 271 may be located between the first port 2811 and the second port 2812. The first connecting hole 271 divides the first main channel 410 into two sections, the first air hole 1021 and the left half of the first main channel 410 form the above-mentioned first channel, the second air hole 1022 and the right half of the first main channel 410 form the above-mentioned second channel, and the first connecting hole 271 forms the above-mentioned third channel.

[0062] In this solution, the first connecting hole 271 divides the first main channel 410 into two sections, that is, the ventilation channel 400 has two ventilation paths. Figure 3 As shown, the first vent hole 1021, the left section of the first main channel 410 and the first connecting hole 271 form a first ventilation path. The second vent hole 1022, the right end of the second main channel 430 and the first connecting hole 271 form a second ventilation path. Therefore, it can be prevented that one vent hole 102 is blocked in special circumstances, while the other vent hole 102 can work normally, so that the air pressure balance between the inner cavity of the housing 100 and the external environment of the electronic device can be always ensured, thereby further improving the reliability of the electronic device.

[0063] Optionally, when there are two air holes 102 , the number of the first avoidance notches 261 may also be two, wherein one first avoidance notch 261 is disposed opposite to the first air hole 1021 , and the other first avoidance notch 261 is disposed opposite to the second air hole 1022 .

[0064] The embodiments disclosed in the present application are not limited to the design of the ventilation channel 400 described above. In another optional embodiment, the camera decorative assembly 200 may further include a fifth adhesive layer 290, and the decorative member 210 is attached to the outer surface of the housing 100 through the fifth adhesive layer 290. The fifth adhesive layer 290 and the fourth adhesive layer 260 described above are the same component, and are both used to achieve the bonding of the housing 100 and the decorative member 210. The fifth adhesive layer 290 and the fourth adhesive layer 260 are the same structure in different embodiments.

[0065] The fifth adhesive layer 290 is provided with an opening along its radial direction, one end of the opening passes through the edge of the fifth adhesive layer 290 , and the other end passes through the edge of the light-through opening 101 . At this time, the decorative part 210 and the shell 100 block both sides of the opening, thereby forming the above-mentioned ventilation channel 400 .

[0066] In the electronic device disclosed in the present application, due to the different components and structures of the housing 100, the structure of the ventilation channel 400 is different. In another optional embodiment, Fig.13 As shown, the housing 100 may include a plain leather layer 110 and a substrate layer 120. The plain leather layer 110 here serves as the outer surface of the housing 100. The plain leather layer 110 has good decorativeness and hand feel, and thus can improve the appearance performance of the electronic device. The plain leather layer 110 may be made of materials such as PU (Polyurethane), rubber or animal fur. The substrate layer 120 is used to support the plain leather layer 110. The substrate layer 120 may be made of materials such as PC (Polycarbonate), metal or tempered glass. Specifically, the substrate layer 120 may have a first area 121 and a second area 122. The first area 121 may be arranged around the second area 122, and the first area 121 may be affixed with the plain leather layer 110.

[0067] The first area 121 here can also be understood as the appearance area of ​​the housing 100. The second area 122 can be provided with the above-mentioned light-through opening 101, the plain leather layer 110 and the decorative member 210 can be located on the same side of the substrate layer 120, and the decorative member 210 is attached to the second area 122 through the fifth adhesive layer 290. At this time, the decorative member 210 is used to cover the second area 122. It can be understood here that the plain leather layer 110 is provided with an exposed hole opposite to the second area 122, thereby exposing the second area 122. The decorative member 210 is attached to the second area 122 through the fifth adhesive layer 290, thereby covering the second area 122.

[0068] The fifth adhesive layer 290 may be provided with a second strip hole 291, and the second strip hole 291, the decorative element 210, and the substrate layer 120 form a second main channel 430. At this time, the fifth adhesive layer 290 is provided with a second strip hole 291 penetrating along its thickness direction, and when the fifth adhesive layer 290 is bonded between the second region 122 of the substrate layer 120 and the decorative element 210, the second region 122 of the substrate layer 120 and the decorative element 210 cover the openings at both ends of the second strip hole 291, thereby forming the second main channel 430.

[0069] A second gap 440 is formed between the edge of the decorative member 210 and the plain leather layer 110. To ensure that the decorative member 210 can completely cover the second area 122, the edge of the decorative member 210 is pressed onto the plain leather layer 110. Therefore, the second gap 440 is formed between the surface of the plain leather layer 110 facing away from the substrate layer 120 and the decorative member 210. The second gap 440 can be connected to the external environment of the electronic device.

[0070] The second main channel 430 can be connected to the external environment of the electronic device through the second gap 440. The second region 122 of the substrate layer 120 can be provided with a second connecting hole 1221, and the second main channel 430 is connected to the inner cavity of the housing 100 through the second connecting hole 1221. The second main channel 430, the second gap 440 and the second connecting hole 1221 together form the ventilation channel 400.

[0071] In the specific ventilation process, the external environment of the electronic device is connected to the inner cavity of the housing 100 from the outside to the inside in sequence through the second gap 440 , the second main channel 430 and the second connecting hole 1221 .

[0072] In this solution, the ventilation channel 400 is designed by utilizing the stacking space between the base material layer 120 and the plain leather layer 110 of the housing 100 and the decorative member 210, so that the overall appearance performance of the camera decorative assembly 200 is not affected, thereby making the camera decorative assembly 200 have a better appearance performance. In addition, the ventilation channel 400 is formed by the second main channel 430, the second connecting hole 1221 and the second gap 440, thereby increasing the path of the ventilation channel 400, and further, under the premise of ensuring the ventilation performance, it can also effectively prevent dust and water vapor from entering the inner cavity of the housing 100, thereby making the electronic device have better waterproof and dustproof performance.

[0073] In addition, this solution utilizes the gap in the stacking direction between the plain leather layer 110 and the decorative element 210 for ventilation, thereby reducing the number of openings on the housing 100, thereby further improving the appearance performance of the electronic device.

[0074] In the above embodiment, in order to ensure that the second gap 440 is formed between the plain leather layer 110 and the decorative piece 210, the edge of the decorative piece 210 cannot be directly pressed onto the plain leather layer 110. As a result, there is a large height difference between the decorative piece 210 and the plain leather layer 110, which can easily affect the appearance performance of the electronic device. In addition, it can also easily cause dust to accumulate between the plain leather layer 110 and the decorative piece 210.

[0075] Based on this, in another optional solution, the first region 121 may have a first laminating surface 1211, a transition surface 1212, and a second laminating surface 1213. The first laminating surface 1211 and the second laminating surface 1213 are connected by the transition surface 1212. The second laminating surface 1213 is located on the side of the first laminating surface 1211 facing the second region 122. The first laminating surface 1211 is higher than the second laminating surface 1213 in the direction toward the plain leather layer 110. In this case, a concave area is provided on the side of the first region 121 facing the plain leather layer 110. Here, the transition surface 1212 and the second laminating surface 1213 form the concave area. Therefore, there is a height difference between the first laminating surface 1211 and the second laminating surface 1213.

[0076] The plain leather layer 110 includes a main covering portion 111 and an extension portion 112, where the covering portion refers to the main appearance area of ​​the plain leather layer 110. The main covering portion 111 is attached to the first bonding surface 1211, and the extension portion 112 extends from the transition surface 1212 to the second bonding surface 1213. The extension portion 112 is attached to the transition surface 1212 and the second bonding surface 1213, and a second gap 440 is formed between the surface of the extension portion 112 on the side away from the substrate layer 120 and the decorative element 210. At this time, due to the height difference between the first fitting surface 1211 and the second fitting surface 1213, the extension portion 112 is recessed relative to the main covering portion 111, so that the main covering portion 111 and the extension portion 112 also form a height difference, and the main covering portion 111 protrudes from the extension portion 112. Therefore, even if the decorative piece 210 is pressed onto the main covering portion 111 as a whole, there will be a gap along the thickness direction between the decorative piece 210 and the extension portion 112, and this gap is the second gap 440.

[0077] In this solution, by setting a partial area of ​​the plain leather layer 110 to be concave, the appearance performance of the electronic device can be further improved while ensuring air permeability, and dust can be prevented from accumulating between the plain leather layer 110 and the decorative component 210.

[0078] like Fig.19 As shown, the area marked by the dotted box is the extension portion 112, and the extension portion 112 can be bonded to the second bonding surface 1213. In order to illustrate the position of the second bonding surface 1213, this application reserves a gap between the extension portion 112 and the second bonding surface 1213, but in the actual process, the gap does not exist, and the extension portion 112 is directly bonded to the second bonding surface 1213.

[0079] In another optional solution, the edge of the fifth adhesive layer 290 may be provided with a second avoidance notch 292, and the second avoidance notch 292 is arranged opposite to the second bonding surface 1213. The end of the second strip hole 291 passes through the avoidance notch. In this solution, the second avoidance notch 292 can shrink the port position of the second main channel 430, thereby avoiding the risk of the second main channel 430 being blocked, and further ensuring the reliability of the ventilation channel 400.

[0080] In one solution, the angle between the transition surface 1212 and the second fitting surface 1213 may be a right angle.

[0081] In another optional solution, the angle between the transition surface 1212 and the second bonding surface 1213 may be an obtuse angle. In this solution, the transition surface 1212 is tilted away from the second bonding surface 1213, so that the extension portion 112 can be evenly transitioned to the second bonding surface 1213, thereby ensuring that the plain leather layer 110 of the ventilation channel 400 can be effectively bonded and the ventilation of the ventilation channel 400 is smooth. At the same time, it can also meet the requirements of delicate and exquisite appearance.

[0082] In another optional embodiment, the second bonding surface 1213 is flush with the surface of the second region 122 facing the decorative element 210. This solution can reduce the stacking thickness of the decorative element 210 and the substrate layer 120, and further ensure that the decorative element 210 can be pressed onto the main covering portion 111.

[0083] At least two camera modules are usually provided in an electronic device. To cope with this arrangement, in another optional solution, a second crossbeam 104 may be formed in the second area 122, and at least two light-through openings 101 are provided in the second area 122, and at least two light-through openings 101 are separated by the second crossbeam 104. In the case where the second crossbeam 104 is formed in the second area 122, a second main channel 430 is formed between the area of ​​the fifth adhesive layer 290 and the decorative member 210 opposite to the second crossbeam 104 and the second crossbeam 104. In other words, the second main channel 430 is formed at the location of the second crossbeam 104. The second crossbeam 104 here and the first crossbeam 103 described above are the same structure in different embodiments, and both are crossbeams formed on the housing 100.

[0084] Specifically, the fifth bonding layer 290 includes a first bonding area, a second bonding area and a third bonding area. The first bonding area extends along the edge of one of the light holes 211, the third bonding area extends along the edge of another light hole 211, and the second bonding area is opposite to the second crossbeam 104. The decorative member 210 is also provided with an upper half, a middle part and a lower half. The first bonding area bonds the upper half to the corresponding position of one of the light holes 211, and the third bonding area bonds the lower half to the corresponding position of the other light hole 211. The second bonding area bonds the middle part to the second crossbeam 104. The second bonding area here is provided with the second strip hole 291 mentioned above, and the second bonding area, the second crossbeam 104 and the middle part form the second main channel 430 mentioned above.

[0085] In this solution, the second crossbeam 104 between at least two light-through holes 211 is used to form the second main channel 430, thereby avoiding the occupation of the area of ​​the housing 100 around the decorative element 210, and thus not easily affecting the volume of the electronic device. In addition, the design of the second crossbeam 104 can be used to form the second main channel 430 and increase the structural strength of this area, thereby optimizing the structural layout of the electronic device.

[0086] Further, the second strip hole 291 has a third port 2911 and a fourth port 2912 along the extension direction of the second cross beam 104, and the second connecting hole 1221 is located between the third port 2911 and the fourth port 2912. The second gap 440 may include a first sub-gap 441 and a second sub-gap 442, the first sub-gap 441 and the second sub-gap 442 are respectively located on opposite sides of the decorative member 210, the third port 2911 is connected to the first sub-gap 441, and the fourth port 2912 is connected to the second sub-gap 442. The second connecting hole 1221 divides the second main channel 430 into two sections, the first sub-gap 441 and the left half of the second main channel 430 form the above-mentioned first channel, the second sub-gap 442 and the right half of the second main channel 430 form the above-mentioned second channel, and the second connecting hole 1221 forms the above-mentioned third channel.

[0087] In this solution, the second connecting hole 1221 divides the second main channel 430 into two sections, that is, the ventilation channel 400 has two ventilation paths. Fig.13 As shown, the first sub-gap 441, the left section of the second main channel 430 and the second connecting hole 1221 form a first ventilation path. The second sub-gap 442, the right end of the second main channel 430 and the second connecting hole form a second ventilation path. Therefore, it can be prevented that one second gap 440 is blocked in special circumstances, and the other second gap 440 can work normally, so that the air pressure balance between the inner cavity of the housing 100 and the external environment of the electronic device can be always ensured, thereby further improving the reliability of the electronic device.

[0088] In another optional solution, the electronic device may further include a dustproof breathable membrane 500, which is disposed in the ventilation channel 400. The dustproof breathable membrane 500 here refers to a film that is breathable but has a certain dust filtering performance. This solution can further improve the dustproof and waterproof performance of the electronic device.

[0089] In such Figure 3 In the illustrated embodiment, the dustproof and breathable membrane 500 may be disposed at the first communication hole 271. In this case, the dustproof and breathable membrane 500 may cover the first communication hole 271.

[0090] In such Fig.13 In the illustrated embodiment, the dustproof and breathable membrane 500 may be disposed on the second communication hole 1221. In this case, the dustproof and breathable membrane 500 may cover the second communication hole 1221.

[0091] In another optional solution, the light shielding area 221 may include a first sub-light shielding area 2211 and a second sub-light shielding area 2212 that are spaced apart, and the first transparent area 222 may include a first sub-transparent area 2221 and a second sub-transparent area 2222 that are spaced apart, and the first sub-light shielding area 2211 is arranged around the first sub-transparent area 2221. The second sub-light shielding area 2212 is arranged around the second sub-transparent area 2222. One of the light-through openings 101 is arranged opposite to the first sub-transparent area 2221, and the other light-through opening 101 is arranged opposite to the second sub-transparent area 2222.

[0092] This solution can meet the dual-camera requirements of electronic devices, and can also achieve the effect of each sub-light-shielding area 221 being suspended, thereby further improving the appearance performance of the electronic device.

[0093] Furthermore, the above-mentioned support part 230 includes a first sub-support part 231 and a second sub-support part 232 distributed at intervals. The first sub-support part 231 is bonded to the first sub-shading area 2211 through a corresponding adhesive layer, and the second sub-support part 232 can be bonded to the second sub-shading area 2212 through a corresponding adhesive layer.

[0094] The electronic device disclosed in the embodiments of the present application may be a smart phone, a tablet computer, an e-book reader, a wearable device (such as a smart watch), an electronic game console, or the like. The embodiments of the present application do not limit the specific types of electronic devices.

The above-mentioned specific implementation methods are merely illustrative and not restrictive. Under the guidance of the present application, ordinary technicians in this field can also make many forms without departing from the purpose of the present application and the scope of protection of the claims, all of which are within the protection of the present application.
