Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the field of photography technology, specifically relating to an electronic device. Background Technology

[0002] Standby time is a crucial factor affecting user experience in electronic devices, with longer standby times relying on larger battery capacities. Currently, this is typically achieved by minimizing the size of the circuit board to create more space for the battery.

[0003] However, in the process of realizing this application, the inventors discovered the following problem in the prior art: at least two cameras are arranged on the circuit board, and the assembly gap between the cameras and the board-to-board connectors (BTB) is limited, which prevents the assembly gap between the cameras from being reduced further, thereby limiting the size reduction of the circuit board.

[0004] Application content

[0005] The purpose of this application is to provide an electronic device that can solve the problem in the prior art where the size of the circuit board is limited, resulting in the inability to further increase the battery capacity.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this application is implemented as follows:

[0007] This application provides an electronic device, including: a limiting shielding structure, a circuit board, and a first camera module and a second camera module disposed on the circuit board. The first camera module includes a first camera body and a board-to-board connector electrically connected to each other, and the second camera module includes a second camera body.

[0008] The first camera body and the second camera body are arranged side by side;

[0009] The limiting shielding structure is connected between the second camera body and the circuit board. The board-to-board connector is snapped between the limiting shielding structure and the circuit board. The board-to-board connector is electrically connected to the circuit board. The second direction intersects with the first direction.

[0010] In this embodiment, the limiting shielding structure is connected between the second camera body and the circuit board, and the board-to-board connector is snapped between the limiting shielding structure and the circuit board. This allows the board-to-board connector and the second camera body to be stacked, avoiding the board-to-board connector occupying the layout space on the circuit board. This allows the first camera body and the second camera body to be arranged more compactly side by side, which helps to reduce the size of the circuit board, provides more space for the battery, increases the battery capacity, and extends the standby time of the electronic device.

[0024] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0025] The terms "first," "second," etc., used in the specification and claims of this application are used to distinguish similar objects and not to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such use of data can be interchanged where appropriate so that embodiments of this application can be implemented in orders other than those illustrated or described herein. Furthermore, in the specification and claims, "and / or" indicates at least one of the connected objects, and the character " / " generally indicates that the preceding and following objects are in an "or" relationship.

[0026] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figures 1 to 11 The electronic devices provided in this application will be described in detail through specific embodiments and application scenarios.

[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, this application provides an electronic device, which includes: a limiting shielding structure 4, a circuit board 1, and a first camera module 2 and a second camera module 3 arranged on the circuit board 1. The first camera module 2 includes a first camera body 21 and a board-to-board connector 22 that are electrically connected to each other. The second camera module 3 includes a second camera body 31. The first camera body 21 and the second camera body 31 are arranged side by side along a first direction S1. The limiting shielding structure 4 is connected between the second camera body 31 and the circuit board 1. The board-to-board connector 22 is snapped between the limiting shielding structure 4 and the circuit board 1 and is electrically connected to the circuit board 1.

[0028] In this embodiment, the board-to-board connector 22 is stacked between the second camera body 31 and the circuit board 1 along the second direction S2. This avoids the board-to-board connector 22 occupying space in the first direction S1, allowing the first camera body 21 and the second camera body 31 to be arranged more compactly. This helps to reduce the size of the circuit board 1 in the first direction S1, providing more space for the battery, thereby increasing the battery capacity and extending the standby time of the electronic device.

[0029] The electronic devices described in this application include, but are not limited to, portable camera modules such as mobile phones, tablets, laptops, smartwatches, and smart helmets, or they may also be game consoles, desktop computers, etc. The electronic device may include a circuit board 1, which may be a printed circuit board (PCB) or a rigid-flex circuit board; this application does not limit the specific type. The circuit board 1 serves as a support for the electronic components in the electronic device and is the carrier for the electrical connections of the electronic components.

[0030] Specifically, the electronic device also includes a camera module for shooting. With the development of camera modules, users' requirements for the image quality captured by the camera modules are increasing, leading to an increase in the number of camera modules. Specifically, the camera module can be a main camera module 8 for realizing the shooting function. The main camera module 8 is a commonly used camera module in electronic devices. The main camera module 8 can also be arranged on the circuit board 1. The electronic device can also include a first camera module 2 and a second camera module 3 for realizing the shooting function. Both the first camera module 2 and the second camera module 3 are arranged on the circuit board 1. The first camera module 2 and the second camera module 3 can be used to assist the main camera module 8 in shooting, thereby further improving the shooting quality of the electronic device.

[0031] Specifically, the first camera module 2 and the second camera module 3 may be of the same or different types. For example, the first camera module 2 may include an ultra-wide-angle camera, and the second camera module 3 may include a telephoto camera; or, the first camera module 2 may include a periscope camera, and the second camera module 3 may include an 8M camera.

[0032] Specifically, taking the main camera module 8 as an example, the main camera module 8 includes a camera body and a board-to-board connector that are electrically connected to each other. The camera body is electrically connected to the board-to-board connector through a flexible printed circuit board (FPC). The flexible printed circuit board 23 is deformable, which facilitates the adjustment of the relative position between the board-to-board connector and the camera body.

[0033] Furthermore, the circuit board 1 may be provided with a socket corresponding to the board-to-board connector, and the board-to-board connector can be plugged into the socket to achieve electrical conduction.

[0034] Furthermore, the camera body may include a lens, an image sensor, and an optical transmission element. The lens is used to collect and adjust light; this application does not limit the specific type of lens. The image sensor includes, but is not limited to, a charge-coupled device (CCD) or a complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor sensor (CMOS sensor). The optical transmission element is sequentially disposed between the lens and the image sensor along the light path propagation direction. The optical transmission element can play a role in light transmission between the lens and the image sensor, thereby transmitting the light collected by the lens to the image sensor, so that the image sensor can receive the light and perform photoelectric conversion to achieve imaging. Specifically, the optical transmission element may be a prism or lens, etc., used to change the direction of light propagation.

[0035] Specifically, the first camera module 2 includes a first camera body 21 and a board-to-board connector 22 that are electrically connected to each other. The first camera body 21 can be electrically connected to the board-to-board connector 22 through a flexible circuit board 23. The first camera body 21 includes a lens, an image sensor and an optical transmission element. The specific configuration can be referred to the camera body in the main camera module 8, and will not be described in detail here.

[0036] Specifically, the board-to-board connector 22 of the first camera module 2 can be plugged into the corresponding socket on the circuit board 1 to realize the electrical connection between the first camera module 2 and the circuit board 1.

[0037] Specifically, the second camera module 3 may include a second camera body 31 and a board-to-board connector 22 that are electrically connected to each other. The second camera body 31 in the second camera module 3 can be electrically connected to its board-to-board connector 22 via a flexible circuit board 23. The second camera body 31 may include a lens, an image sensor, and optical transmission elements. The specific configuration can be referred to the camera body in the main camera module 8, and will not be elaborated further in this application.

[0038] Specifically, the board-to-board connector 22 of the second camera module 3 can be plugged into the corresponding socket on the circuit board 1 to realize the electrical connection between the second camera module 3 and the circuit board 1.

[0039] Specifically, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the electronic device has a first direction S1, a second direction S2, and a third direction S3. The first direction S1 is the length direction of the electronic device, the second direction S2 is the thickness direction of the electronic device, and the third direction S3 is the width direction of the electronic device. Figure 3 As shown, the electronic device includes a first region 71, a second region 72, and a third region 73 along the first direction S1. The first region 71 is used to arrange the circuit board 1 of the electronic device, which is the motherboard of the electronic device. The second region 72 is used to arrange the battery of the electronic device. The third region 73 is used to arrange the sub-board of the electronic device. The sub-board can be a printed circuit board (PCB), a flexible printed circuit (FPC), or a rigid-flex circuit board. This application embodiment does not limit this.

[0040] Furthermore, such as Figures 2 to 5 As shown, the board-to-board connector 22 is stacked between the second camera body 31 and the circuit board 1 along the second direction S2. This avoids the board-to-board connector 22 occupying the space of the electronic device in the first direction S1. In this way, the first camera body 21 and the second camera body 31 can be arranged compactly along the first direction S1. Then, the overall size y1 of the circuit board 1 in the first direction S1 can be reduced, that is, the length y1 of the first region 71 can be reduced, thereby increasing the length y2 of the second region 72, so as to increase the battery capacity and extend the standby time of the electronic device.

[0041] Optionally, the electronic device includes a limiting shielding structure 4, which is connected between the second camera body 31 and the circuit board 1. The board-to-board connector 22 can be snapped between the limiting shielding structure 4 and the circuit board 1, so that the second camera body 31 can be indirectly fixed on the circuit board 1 through the limiting shielding structure 4.

[0042] Specifically, the limiting shielding structure 4 can be fixedly connected to the circuit board 1, and the connection method can be a snap-fit ​​connection, a concave-convex fit, etc. The limiting shielding structure 4 can be fixedly connected to the second camera body 31, and the connection method can be adhesive bonding or a snap-fit ​​connection, etc. The limiting shielding structure 4 is engaged with the board-to-board connector 22, which can limit and fix the board-to-board connector 22, and improve the reliability of the electrical connection between the board-to-board connector 22 and the circuit board 1.

[0043] Specifically, the limiting and shielding structure 4 can have the functions of limiting and shielding signals. On the one hand, it can limit the board-to-board connector 22. On the other hand, the limiting and shielding structure 4 can shield the signal interference of external devices to the board-to-board connector 22, or it can shield the signal interference of the board-to-board connector 22 to external devices.

[0044] Specifically, the limiting shielding structure 4 may include a single component, such as a snap-fit ​​connector adapted to the limiting shielding structure 4 on the circuit board 1. Alternatively, the limiting shielding structure 4 may also include a combination of two components; for example, the limiting shielding structure 4 may include two snap-fit ​​connectors, with one of the connectors fixedly connected to the circuit board 1.

[0045] Optionally, the limiting shielding structure 4 and the circuit board 1 enclose a shielding cavity, and the board-to-board connector 22 is disposed inside the shielding cavity, which can improve the reliability of the limiting shielding structure 4 in shielding signals.

[0046] In some optional embodiments, the limiting shielding structure 4 includes a limiting member 6 and a shielding cover 5. The limiting member 6 is connected to the circuit board 1, and the shielding cover 5 has a receiving groove 53 with the slot facing the circuit board 1. The shielding cover 5 is snapped into the limiting member 6 and surrounds the circuit board 1 to form a shielding cavity. The side of the shielding cover 5 away from the circuit board 1 is connected to the second camera body 31.

[0047] In this embodiment of the application, the shielding cover 5 can be fixed to the circuit board 1 by snapping with the limiting member 6. Since the shielding cover 5 has a receiving groove 53 with the slot facing the circuit board 1, it is convenient for the shielding cover 5 and the circuit board 1 to form a shielding cavity.

[0048] Specifically, the shielding cover 5 can be a metal part, such as a copper part or a copper alloy part. The cross-sectional shape of the shielding cover 5 along the first direction S1 can be rectangular or stepped, etc., and can be adapted to actual needs. This application embodiment does not specifically limit this.

[0049] Specifically, the limiting member 6 can be fixedly connected to the circuit board 1, and the specific connection method is not limited. The limiting member 6 is used to achieve the function of snapping the shielding cover 5. Specifically, the limiting member 6 is snapped into the shielding cover 5. The limiting member 6 can be accommodated in the receiving groove 53, or it can be arranged outside the receiving groove 53.

[0050] Specifically, the limiting member 6 and the shielding cover 5 can be in a concave-convex fit, a snap-fit ​​fit, or both a concave-convex fit and a snap-fit ​​fit for limiting and fixing. This application embodiment does not specifically limit this.

[0051] Specifically, the side of the shielding cover 5 away from the circuit board 1 is connected to the second camera body 31. The specific connection method can be adhesive bonding, snap-fitting, etc., which is not limited in this embodiment.

[0052] Specifically, the shielding cover 5 has a receiving groove 53 with the slot facing the circuit board 1. The receiving groove 53 can be used to receive the board-to-board connector 22. The specific size of the receiving groove 53 can be designed with reference to the size of the board-to-board connector 22. This application embodiment does not specifically limit this.

[0053] Optionally, the shielding cover 5 is provided with a protrusion 52 at a position opposite to the board-to-board connector 22, the protrusion 52 protruding toward the board-to-board connector 22 and abutting against the board-to-board connector 22.

[0054] In this embodiment, after the shielding cover 5 and the limiting member 6 are engaged, the protrusion 52 on the shielding cover 5 can squeeze the board-to-board connector 22, providing a pressing force in the second direction S2 to the board-to-board connector 22. This can reduce the gap between the shielding cover 5 and the board-to-board connector 22, further improve the reliability of the limiting and fixing of the board-to-board connector 22, and reduce the risk of the board-to-board connector 22 detaching.

[0055] Specifically, the protrusion 52 can be a protrusion or a column protruding from the shielding cover 5. The side of the shielding cover 5 away from the protrusion 52 is a planar structure, or the position of the shielding cover 5 opposite to the protrusion 52 can form a groove with the opening facing away from the protrusion 52.

[0056] Specifically, the number of protrusions 52 can be at least one, and the number of protrusions 52 can be either odd or even. When the number of protrusions 52 is at least two, the at least two protrusions 52 can be distributed at intervals along the first direction S1 and / or the third direction S3.

[0057] Furthermore, at least two protrusions 52 may be evenly spaced along the first direction S1 and / or the third direction S3 to improve the structural stability of the shielding cover.

[0058] Specifically, at least two protrusions 52 can be arranged in a row along the first direction S1, or at least two protrusions 52 can be arranged in a row along the third direction S3. Alternatively, multiple protrusions 52 can be arrayed along the first direction S1 and the third direction S3 respectively.

[0059] This application does not specify the number and shape of the protrusions 52, which can be adapted to actual needs. For example, Figure 6 and Figure 7 This illustrates a case where the shielding cover 5 has five protrusions 52; other cases can refer to this configuration.

[0060] Optionally, the first camera module 2 may further include a flexible circuit board 23, and the board-to-board connector 22 and the first camera body 21 are electrically connected through the flexible circuit board 23; the shielding cover 5 is provided with a first notch 51 on the side facing the first camera body 21, and the first notch 51 is through at least along the first direction S1; the flexible circuit board 23 may be inserted through the first notch 51 and electrically connected to the board-to-board connector 22 and the first camera body 21 respectively, so that the first notch 51 is used to avoid the flexible circuit board 23.

[0061] In this embodiment of the application, the shielding cover 5 is provided with a first notch 51 to facilitate the avoidance of the flexible circuit board 23, thereby improving the convenience and reliability of inserting the board-to-board connector 22 into the shielding cavity.

[0062] In some embodiments, the first notch 51 can be a through hole extending along the first direction S1. The cross-section of the through hole perpendicular to the first direction S1 can be circular, square, or U-shaped, etc. The specific size of the through hole can be designed adaptively according to the size of the flexible circuit board 23. In other embodiments, the first notch 51 can also extend along both the first direction S1 and the second direction S2. The selection can be made according to actual needs, and this application does not specifically limit this.

[0063] Optionally, a rolled edge 54 is provided at the first notch 51, one end of the rolled edge 54 is connected to the side wall of the first notch 51, and the other end of the rolled edge 54 is provided on the side of the shielding cover 5 facing or away from the circuit board 1.

[0064] In this embodiment of the application, a rolled edge 54 is provided at the first notch 51, which can prevent the sidewall of the first notch 51 from forming a sharp edge and reduce the risk of the sidewall of the first notch 51 cutting the flexible circuit board 23.

[0065] Specifically, the rolled edge 54 can be integrally formed with the shielding cover 5, and the rolled edge 54 can be rolled inward along the shielding cover 5 so that the rolled edge 54 can be located within the receiving groove 53, and the rolled edge 54 can be hidden; or, as Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the rolled edge 54 can also be rolled outward along the shielding cover 5, which can also prevent the rolled edge 54 from interfering with the protrusion 52.

[0066] Specifically, the dimensions of the rolled edge 54 along the third direction S3 can be adaptively adjusted with reference to the dimensions of the flexible circuit board 23, and the dimensions of the rolled edge 54 along the first direction S1 can be adaptively adjusted with reference to the position of the protrusion 52, so that the rolled edge 54 and the protrusion 52 are spaced apart to avoid mutual interference.

[0067] In some alternative embodiments, the first notch 51 may include a first sidewall 511, a second sidewall 512, and a third sidewall 513 connected in sequence; the second sidewall 512 is opposite to the first camera body 21, the first sidewall 511 and the third sidewall 513 are disposed opposite to each other, and the first sidewall 511, the second sidewall 512 and the third sidewall 513 enclose to form a U-shaped structure; the rolled edge 54 is connected to the second sidewall 512 and is spaced apart from the first sidewall 511 and the third sidewall 513 respectively.

[0068] In this embodiment, the second sidewall 512 is opposite to the first camera body 21, and the rolled edge 54 is connected to the second sidewall 512, which can greatly reduce the probability of the sidewall of the first notch 51 scratching the flexible circuit board 23. The rolled edge 54 is spaced apart from the first sidewall 511 and the third sidewall 513, which can avoid the design of the rolled edge 54 causing excessive stress on the shielding cover 5 at the first notch 51, thereby avoiding the problem of cracking of the shielding cover 5.

[0069] Specifically, the rolled edge 54 is spaced apart from the first sidewall 511 and the third sidewall 513 along the third direction S3. A crack-prevention groove can be formed at this interval to prevent the shielding cover 5 from cracking due to excessive stress at the corner during the bending process of the rolled edge 54.

[0070] Furthermore, the first sidewall 511 can be a plane, an inclined plane, or an arc-shaped surface, making the structure of the first sidewall 511 more diverse. The third sidewall 513 can also be a plane, an inclined plane, or an arc-shaped surface, making the structure of the third sidewall 513 more diverse. The shapes of the first sidewall 511 and the third sidewall 513 can be the same or different, and this application embodiment does not specifically limit them.

[0071] Specifically, the first sidewall 511 may also have a groove with its opening facing the third sidewall 513, and / or the third sidewall 513 may also have a groove with its opening facing the first sidewall 511. The shape of the groove may be regular or irregular.

[0072] Specifically, during the assembly of the electronic device, the limiting member 6 can be connected to the circuit board 1 first, then the board-to-board connector 22 can be connected to the circuit board 1, and then the shielding cover 5 can be fastened to the limiting member 6. The shielding cover 5 presses the board-to-board connector 22 along the second direction S2, and the rolled edge 54 can contact the flexible circuit board 23. Since the rolled edge 54 is relatively smooth, it can prevent the rolled edge 54 from scratching the flexible circuit board 23.

[0073] Specifically, the assembly process of the camera module includes: Figure 8 As shown, first assemble circuit board 1 and main camera module 8 onto the main body of the electronic device; as... Figure 9 As shown, the first camera body 21 is then assembled, and the board-to-board connector 22 of the first camera module 2 is simultaneously fastened to the corresponding position on the circuit board 1; as shown Figure 10 As shown, the shielding cover 5 can then be snapped into the limiting member 6, causing the protrusion 52 of the shielding cover 5 to press against the plate-to-plate connector 22 along the second direction S2, thereby providing a pressing force to the plate-to-plate connector 22; as shown Figure 11 As shown, the second camera body 31 can be mounted on the side of the shielding cover 5 away from the circuit board 1, and the board-to-board connector 22 of the second camera module 3 can be connected to the circuit board 1.

[0074] In some alternative embodiments, the limiting member 6 is a limiting plate, one side of which is connected to the circuit board 1, and the other side of which protrudes toward the shielding cover 5 and is engaged in the receiving groove 53; a second notch 61 is provided at the position opposite to the board-to-board connector 22, and the second notch 61 is used to avoid the board-to-board connector 22.

[0075] In this embodiment, the limiting plate protrudes towards the shielding cover 5 and is snapped into the receiving groove 53, thereby achieving the snap-fit ​​fixation of the limiting member 6 and the shielding cover 5. A second notch 61 is provided at the position opposite to the board-to-board connector 22 to facilitate the avoidance of the board-to-board connector 22 and to achieve electrical connection between the board-to-board connector 22 and the circuit board 1.

[0076] Specifically, such as Figure 6 As shown, the limiting plate and the shielding cover 5 are structurally compatible, and their shapes are roughly the same. The protruding part of the limiting plate is matched with the receiving groove 53 on the shielding cover 5.

[0077] Specifically, the second notch 61 can be a through hole that is open along the second direction S2. The cross-section of the through hole perpendicular to the second direction S2 can be circular, square, or U-shaped, etc. This application embodiment does not specifically limit this.

[0078] Alternatively, the limiting element 6 can also be a limiting post or a buckle, etc.

[0079] In some optional embodiments of this application, the limiting member 6 may be a limiting post, and the number of limiting posts may include at least two. The at least two limiting posts may be arranged opposite to each other along the first direction S1 and / or the third direction S3, so as to support the two sides of the shielding cover 5 by the at least two limiting posts, thereby realizing the snap-fit ​​between the limiting member 6 and the shielding cover 5.

[0080] In some alternative embodiments of this application, the limiting member 6 may also be a snap fastener, which can be used to engage with the shielding cover 5, thereby improving the convenience and firmness of the engagement between the limiting member 6 and the shielding cover 5. When the number of snap fasteners includes at least two, the at least two snap fasteners can be arranged opposite each other along the first direction S1 and / or the third direction S3, so as to secure the opposite sides of the shielding cover 5 with at least two snap fasteners, thereby achieving the engagement between the limiting member 6 and the shielding cover 5.

[0081] Optionally, the shielding cover 5 may include a first top plate and a first circumferential enclosure plate, wherein the first circumferential enclosure plate is connected to the first top plate and encloses it to form a receiving groove 53.

[0082] In some optional embodiments, the shielding cover 5 further includes a first protruding edge, which may be parallel to the first top plate and connected to the end of the first circumferential enclosure plate away from the first top plate. The first protruding edge can be used to connect to the circuit board 1. The first protruding edge may include a plurality of protruding edges spaced circumferentially along the first circumferential enclosure plate, or the first protruding edge may be an annular element. The shielding cover 5 may be an integrally formed structure to ensure the structural strength of the shielding cover 5.

[0083] In this application, the limiting member 6 may include at least two limiting posts. Taking two limiting posts as an example, the two limiting posts can lock the opposite sides of the first circumferential enclosure plate; taking four limiting posts as an example, the four limiting posts can lock the four corners of the first circumferential enclosure plate.

[0084] In some alternative embodiments, the limiting plate may include a second top plate and a second circumferential enclosing plate, the second circumferential enclosing plate being connected to the second top plate and enclosing to form a hollow protrusion, which can be adapted to and snapped into the receiving groove 53 of the shielding cover 5. Further, the limiting plate may also include a second protruding edge, which may be parallel to the second top plate and connected to the end of the second circumferential enclosing plate away from the second top plate, and the second protruding edge can be used for connection to a circuit board. The limiting plate can be an integrally formed structure to ensure the structural strength of the limiting member 6.

[0085] In this application, the first circumferential enclosure plate and the second circumferential enclosure plate can be interlocked to further improve the reliability and stability of the interlocking between the limiting plate and the shielding cover 5. For example, a first interlocking portion can be provided on the side of the first circumferential enclosure plate facing the second circumferential enclosure plate, and a second interlocking portion can be provided on the side of the second circumferential enclosure plate facing the first circumferential enclosure plate. The first interlocking portion can be one of a limiting post and a limiting groove, and the second interlocking portion can be the other of a limiting post and a limiting groove. The number of first and second interlocking portions is the same, and they match one-to-one. The specific number of first and second interlocking portions in this embodiment is not limited.
