[0024] The specific implementation of the present disclosure is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific implementation described herein is only used to illustrate and explain the present disclosure, and is not used to limit the present disclosure.
[0025] In the present disclosure, unless otherwise stated, directional words such as "upper, lower, top, bottom" are used based on Figure 2 For details, please refer to Figure 2 The direction of the drawing, where top corresponds to the top and bottom corresponds to the bottom. "Inside and outside" refers to the inside and outside of the contour of each component itself. The terms "first" and "second" are used to distinguish one element from another, and do not have order or importance.
[0026] refer to Figure 1 As shown in , the electronic device in the related art includes a middle frame 1', a screen 2' and a fill light 3', a gap space 10' is formed between the middle frame 1' and the screen 2', the screen 2' is provided with a light outlet 21', and the fill light 3' includes a lampshade 31', the lampshade 31' has a light outlet 311', the light outlet 311' is arranged in the gap space 10' and is located below the light outlet 21', and there is an avoidance gap between the light outlet 311' and the screen 2'. Here, the light outlet 311' in the related art is arranged in the gap space 10', and there is an avoidance gap between it and the screen 2', so the electronic device in the related art has a larger black border. Here, a larger black border can be understood as a larger width of the black border.
[0027] According to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, there is provided an electronic device, referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the electronic device includes a middle frame 1, a screen 2 and a fill light 3, the middle frame 1 and the screen 2 form a gap space 10, the fill light 3 includes a lampshade 31, the lampshade 31 has a light emitting portion 311, wherein the gap space 10 is constructed as a light guiding space, the screen 2 is provided with a light emitting hole 21 located above the light guiding space, the light emitting portion 311 is arranged below the light guiding space, and the light emitted by the light emitting portion 311 can be transmitted to the light emitting hole 21 through the light guiding space.
[0028] Through the above technical solution, in the electronic device provided by the present disclosure, when the fill light is needed, the light emitted by the light emitting portion 311 can be transmitted to the light emitting hole 21 through the light guiding space, and emitted from the light emitting hole 21. At this time, the fill light function of the fill light 3 can be realized. Here, compared with the method of setting the light emitting portion in the gap space in the related art, the present disclosure constructs the gap space 10 as a light guiding space, and sets the light emitting portion 311 below the light guiding space. On the one hand, the space in the gap space 10 for accommodating the light emitting portion 311 and the wall thickness of the lampshade 31 can be omitted, and on the other hand, the space in the gap space 10 for reserving a gap between the light emitting portion 311 and the screen 2 can be omitted. In this way, the gap space 10 can be designed to be narrower, thereby reducing the width of the black border of the electronic device.
[0029] It should be noted that the gap space 10 of the present disclosure is constructed as a light-guiding space, that is, the main function of the gap space 10 is to guide light. When a fill light is needed, the light emitted by the light-emitting portion 311 can be directly transmitted to the light-emitting hole 21 through the light-guiding space. In addition, the present disclosure does not limit the specific type of electronic device. For example, the electronic device can be a mobile phone, a tablet, a laptop computer, a bracelet, a smart watch, etc.
[0030] In the exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown in , the middle frame 1 may have a first side surface 11 for enclosing a light guide space, and a first reflective structure 4 is provided on the first side surface 11, and the first reflective structure 4 can reflect the light incident on itself to the light exit hole 21. Here, when the fill light 3 is needed, most of the light emitted by the light exit portion 311 can be directly transmitted to the light exit hole 21 through the light guide space, and a small amount of light will be scattered to the first side surface 11. At this time, the first reflective structure 4 can be used to reflect this part of the light to the light exit hole 21, thereby ensuring and improving the lighting effect of the fill light 3. Here, the present disclosure does not limit the specific structure of the first reflective structure 4, and the present disclosure will be described in detail in the following embodiments.
[0031] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the first reflective structure 4 can be constructed as a reflective film, and the reflective film is bonded to the first side surface 11. Here, the reflective film can be used to reflect the light incident on itself. In addition, bonding the reflective film to the first side surface 11 can ensure the stability of the reflective film itself. Of course, the first reflective structure 4 can also be composed of other structures with a reflective function, and the first reflective structure 4 can also be arranged on the first side surface 11 by means of snap-fitting, etc., and the present disclosure does not limit this.
[0032] In the exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown in , the screen 2 may have a second side surface 22 for enclosing a light-guiding space, and a second reflective structure 5 is provided on the second side surface 22, and the second reflective structure 5 can reflect the light incident on itself to the light-emitting hole 21. Here, when the fill light 3 is needed, most of the light emitted by the light-emitting portion 311 can be directly transmitted to the light-emitting hole 21 through the light-guiding space, and a small amount of light will be scattered to the second side surface 22. At this time, the second reflective structure 5 can be used to reflect this part of the light to the light-emitting hole 21, thereby ensuring and improving the lighting effect of the fill light 3. Here, the present disclosure does not limit the specific structure of the second reflective structure 5, and the present disclosure will be described in detail in the following embodiments. In addition, in the embodiment in which the electronic device includes the first reflective structure 4 and the second reflective structure 5, the lighting effect of the fill light 3 can be further guaranteed.
[0033] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the second reflective structure 5 may be constructed as a reflective adhesive, and the reflective adhesive is applied to the second side surface 22. Here, since it is not easy to adhere the reflective film to the second side surface 22, the present disclosure constructs the second reflective structure 5 as a reflective adhesive, and applies the reflective adhesive to the second side surface 22, thereby facilitating the connection between the second side surface 22 and the second reflective structure 5.
[0034] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown in FIG. 1 , the second side surface 22 can be aligned with the first side surface 11 in a preset direction (reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 The light emitting portion 311 is arranged at intervals in the left and right directions of the drawing, and is located between the first side surface 11 and the second side surface 22 in a preset direction. In this way, the projection of the light emitting portion 311 in the up and down directions will be covered by the light guiding space. On the one hand, the light emitted by the light emitting portion 311 can be basically all emitted into the light guiding space between the first side surface 11 and the second side surface 22; on the other hand, it is beneficial for the first reflecting structure 4 to reflect the light incident on itself to the light emitting hole 21, and it is beneficial for the second reflecting structure 5 to reflect the light incident on itself to the light emitting hole 21, thereby ensuring the light effect of the fill light 3. In addition, by reasonably designing the interval between the first side surface 11 and the second side surface 22, it is possible to take into account both the light effect of the fill light 3 and the reduction of the black border width of the electronic device. It should be noted that the above-mentioned preset direction can be the length direction of the electronic device or the width direction of the electronic device, and the present disclosure does not limit this.
[0035] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, reference Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown in , the screen 2 includes a first body portion 23 and a second body portion 24 arranged in sequence from top to bottom, and the first body portion 23 may have a second side surface 22. Here, since the first body portion 23 is farther away from the light exit portion 311 than the second body portion 24, the second side surface 22 is arranged on the first body portion 23, so that the second side surface 22 can be farther away from the light exit portion 311, thereby facilitating the realization of the second reflection structure 5, and reflecting the light incident on itself to the light exit hole 21.
[0036] In the exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, referring to Figure 2 As shown in FIG. 1 , the middle frame 1 has a first side surface 11 for enclosing a light guide space, and a first avoidance gap 20 may be provided between the lampshade 31 and the first side surface 11. Thus, by providing the first avoidance gap 20, the normal operation of the lampshade 31 may be facilitated.
[0037] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, reference Figure 2 As shown in , the middle frame 1 has a bottom wall surface 12 connected to the first side surface 11, the bottom wall surface 12 is located below the light exit portion 311, and a second avoidance gap 30 may be provided between the lampshade 31 and the bottom wall surface 12. In this way, since the light exit portion 311 is provided below the light guide space, the lampshade 31 will be closer to the bottom wall surface 12, and the second avoidance gap 30 is provided to facilitate the normal operation of the lampshade 31.
[0038] In an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, the light emitting portion 311 may have a light emitting surface, and the fill light 3 may include a grating disposed on the light emitting surface. Here, the grating may mix the emitted light, thereby making the light emitted into the light guide space soft light, which is conducive to making the fill light 3 a soft light.
[0039] Below, the present disclosure will make a detailed introduction to the specific use process of the fill light in the electronic device in combination with the above-mentioned specific embodiments. First, when the fill light 3 is needed, the grating at the light emitting surface can convert the light into soft light, wherein, among the light emitted from the light emitting surface into the light guiding space, most of the light directly reaches the light exit hole 21 through the light guiding space, and a small amount of light will be scattered onto the first reflecting structure 4 and the second reflecting structure 5, and reach the light exit hole 21 through the reflection of the first reflecting structure 4 and the reflection of the second reflecting structure 5, thereby ensuring the lighting effect of the fill light 3. In addition, by constructing the gap space 10 as a light guiding space and setting the light exit part 311 below the light guiding space, the black edge width of the electronic device can also be reduced. As a result, the electronic device disclosed in the present disclosure can take into account both the lighting effect of the fill light 3 and the reduction of the black edge width of the electronic device.
[0040] The preferred embodiments of the present disclosure are described in detail above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings; however, the present disclosure is not limited to the specific details in the above embodiments. Within the technical concept of the present disclosure, a variety of simple modifications can be made to the technical solution of the present disclosure, and these simple modifications all fall within the protection scope of the present disclosure.
[0041] It should also be noted that the various specific technical features described in the above specific embodiments can be combined in any suitable manner without contradiction. In order to avoid unnecessary repetition, the present disclosure will not further describe various possible combinations.
[0042] In addition, various embodiments of the present disclosure may be arbitrarily combined, and as long as they do not violate the concept of the present disclosure, they should also be regarded as the contents disclosed by the present disclosure.
