Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of electronic equipment, and specifically relates to a camera decoration component and electronic equipment. Background Art

[0002] With the development of communication technology, electronic devices such as mobile phones and tablets have become indispensable tools for people. When faced with a wide variety of electronic devices, users need to consider not only whether the functions of the electronic devices meet their needs, but also the appearance of the electronic devices is one of the important factors affecting their purchase decisions.

[0003] To enhance the appearance of electronic devices, related art often incorporates a light effect module. Specifically, the module includes a light source and a light guide. Light from the light source enters the light guide and then exits from the outer periphery of the light guide, creating a light effect around the periphery of the camera trim.

[0004] In related art, to ensure better lighting efficiency in electronic devices, camera trims are typically designed with a large radial dimension. However, excessively large radial dimensions of camera trims inevitably occupy some of the mounting space for the electronic device's antenna, thereby squeezing out space for the antenna and potentially impacting the device's antenna performance. For example, in the case of an electronic device's NFC (Near Field Communication) module, an overly large radial dimension of the camera trim reduces the module's recognition area, resulting in reduced recognition sensitivity and, consequently, poor NFC performance in the electronic device. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of the embodiments of the present application is to provide a camera decoration component and an electronic device that can solve the technical problem of poor antenna performance of electronic devices.

[0006] In order to solve the above technical problems, this application is implemented as follows:

[0007] An embodiment of the present application provides a camera decoration assembly, which is applied to an electronic device. The camera decoration assembly includes:

[0008] a decorative element connected to the housing of the electronic device;

[0009] a light effect module, the light effect module comprising a strip light guide, a light source, and an electrical connector, the strip light guide, the light source, and the electrical connector being all disposed on the decorative member, with both ends of the strip light guide being disposed opposite the light source;

[0010] The outer peripheral surface of the strip light guide has a light emitting area and an antenna routing area arranged along its circumference. The light emitted by the light source enters the strip light guide through both ends of the strip light guide and is emitted from the light emitting area to form a light effect at the edge of the decorative part; the antenna routing area is provided with a conductive layer, and the light source and the conductive layer are both used to be electrically connected to the circuit board of the electronic device through the electrical connector.

[0011] An embodiment of the present application provides an electronic device, comprising a housing and the above-mentioned camera decoration assembly, wherein the camera decoration assembly is arranged on the housing.

[0012] In an embodiment of the present application, a conductive layer is provided on part of the outer circumference of the strip light guide, and the conductive layer and the light source are electrically connected to the circuit board of the electronic device through an electrical connector. In this solution, the conductive layer is provided on part of the outer circumference of the strip light guide, so the antenna function is integrated into the strip light guide. At this time, the light effect module can not only form a light effect at the edge of the decorative part, but also realize the antenna function. Therefore, the camera decorative assembly disclosed in the present application can not only make the radial dimension of the decorative part larger so that the electronic device has better light effect, but also increase the area of ​​the antenna to improve the antenna performance of the electronic device.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0020] The following will be combined with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of this application to clearly describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the embodiments described are part of the embodiments of this application, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0021] The terms "first," "second," and the like in the specification and claims of this application are used to distinguish similar objects and are not used to describe a particular order or precedence. It should be understood that the terms used in this manner are interchangeable where appropriate so that the embodiments of this application can be implemented in an order other than that illustrated or described herein. In addition, the term "and / or" in the specification and claims refers to at least one of the connected objects, and the character " / " generally indicates that the objects connected are in an "or" relationship.

[0022] The camera decoration assembly and electronic device provided in the embodiments of the present application are described in detail below through specific embodiments and their application scenarios in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0023] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 The present invention discloses a camera decoration assembly 100 for use in electronic devices. The camera decoration assembly 100 is used to cover the camera module of the electronic device, thereby improving the appearance of the electronic device. The disclosed camera decoration assembly 100 includes a decorative member 110 and a light effect module 120.

[0024] The decorative element 110 is the main component of the camera decorative assembly 100 and also provides a mounting base for the other components of the camera decorative assembly 100. The decorative element 110 is used to connect to the housing 200 of the electronic device. Specifically, the housing 200 of the electronic device has a mounting hole, into which the decorative element 110 is mounted. The decorative element 110 is provided with a light-transmitting area that is opposite the mounting hole. Ambient light passes through the light-transmitting area and the mounting hole before entering the camera module located within the housing 200, thereby enabling the electronic device to capture images.

[0025] The light effect module 120 is used to form a light effect on the outer edge of the decorative part 110. The light effect module 120 includes a strip light guide 121, a light source 122 and an electrical connector 123. The strip light guide 121 is a light transmission component. The strip light guide 121 can be made of materials such as glass and resin. The strip light guide 121, the light source 122 and the electrical connector 123 are all arranged on the decorative part 110, and both ends of the strip light guide 121 are arranged opposite to the light source 122. In one embodiment, the strip light guide 121 can be extended along the edge of the decorative part 110. Here, it can be understood that the strip light guide 121 is arranged along the side of the decorative part 110.

[0026] In the specific process, the light emitted by the light source 122 enters the strip light guide 121 from the end faces at both ends of the strip light guide 121, and then the light propagates within the strip light guide 121. Here, it means that the light propagates along the extension direction of the strip light guide 121, so that the entire strip light guide 121 can be illuminated. At the same time, the light also exits from the strip light guide 121, thereby illuminating the periphery of the decorative member 110 to form a light effect. Here, the light is emitted from the outer peripheral surface of the strip light guide 121. At this time, it can be understood that the light is incident from the end face of the strip light guide 121 and then exits through the outer peripheral surface of the strip light guide 121.

[0027] In the embodiment disclosed in the present application, the outer peripheral surface of the strip light guide 121 has a light emitting area 1211 and an antenna wiring area 1212 arranged along its circumferential direction. The light emitted by the above-mentioned light source 122 enters the strip light guide 121 through the two ends of the strip light guide 121 and is emitted from the light emitting area 1211. In other words, the outer peripheral surface of the strip light guide 121 in the present application is divided into two areas arranged circumferentially, one of which can realize the emission of light, which is used to form the light effect of the camera decoration component 100. The other area is the antenna wiring area 1212, which is used to realize the antenna function of the camera decoration component 100. Specifically, the antenna wiring area 1212 is provided with a conductive layer 150, which is the radiator circuit structure of the antenna, and the conductive layer 150 is used to realize the receiving and transmitting functions of the antenna. The radiator circuit structure of the antenna is a conductive metal circuit structure, so the conductive layer 150 is a metal layer. Therefore, in this application, a metal layer is set on part of the outer peripheral surface of the strip light guide 121 to form the conductive layer 150, so that the strip light guide 121 is integrated with the antenna function.

[0028] Both the light source 122 and the conductive layer 150 are electrically connected to the electronic device's circuit board via an electrical connector 123. The electrical connector 123 can be at least one of a board-to-board connector, a flexible circuit board, an electrical connection spring, or a gold finger. The light source 122 and the conductive layer 150 are electrically connected to the electronic device via the electrical connector 123, thereby enabling control of the light source 122 and signal transmission of the conductive layer 150. The specific control principles of the light source 122 and signal transmission of the conductive layer 150 are well known and are not detailed here.

[0029] In the embodiment disclosed in the present application, the conductive layer 150 is provided on a portion of the outer circumference of the strip light guide 121, thereby integrating the antenna function into the strip light guide 121. At this time, the light effect module 120 can not only form a light effect at the edge of the decorative member 110, but also realize the antenna function. Therefore, the camera decorative assembly 100 disclosed in the present application can not only make the radial dimension of the decorative member 110 larger so that the electronic device has better light effect, but also increase the area of ​​the antenna to improve the antenna performance of the electronic device. Therefore, the camera decorative assembly 100 disclosed in the present application is conducive to improving the antenna performance of the electronic device.

[0030] In addition, the camera decorative element 110 can also function as an antenna, so part of the antenna function of the electronic device can be transferred to the camera decorative element 110, thereby saving space for the antenna on the electronic device, thereby further optimizing the layout of the electronic device and further reducing the difficulty of the layout of the electronic device. At the same time, it can also further achieve the development of lighter and thinner electronic devices.

[0031] Furthermore, the area of ​​the strip light guide 121 facing the outside of the electronic device is typically used primarily for light effects. Therefore, the area of ​​the strip light guide 121 facing the inside of the electronic device has no effect on the electronic device's light effects and can also interfere with the camera module. In the technical solution disclosed in this application, the conductive layer 150 is disposed in the area that does not affect the light effects. Therefore, the conductive layer 150 can also block this portion of the light effects, thereby reducing interference with the camera module. Therefore, the camera decorative assembly 100 disclosed in this application can also effectively improve the camera performance of the electronic device.

[0032] For example, in one embodiment, the conductive layer 150 can be an NFC routing layer. In this case, the conductive layer 150 can realize the NFC function, so the entire decorative member 110 can serve as an NFC recognition area, thereby improving the NFC recognition sensitivity, thereby further improving the NFC performance of the electronic device.

[0033] In addition, the camera decoration 110 and the NFC module in the related art are placed side by side in the electronic device, so the camera decoration 110 and the NFC module occupy a large installation space, making the layout of the electronic device more difficult. However, the camera decoration assembly 100 disclosed in this application integrates the light effect and NFC together, thus saving the space occupied by the NFC module in the electronic device, thereby further optimizing the layout of the electronic device and further reducing the layout difficulty of the electronic device.

[0034] The conductive layer 150 in this application is not limited to an NFC routing layer and can also be configured as a routing layer for antenna 101, a PIFA antenna, an LDS antenna, and the like. The conductive layer 150 disclosed in this application can be configured as antennas with different functions based on specific usage requirements. The specific function of the conductive layer 150 can be designed based on usage requirements and is not limited herein.

[0035] In the embodiment disclosed in the present application, the specific process of setting the conductive layer 150 on the strip light guide 121 can be, first, wrapping one or more metal circuit layers on the outer peripheral surface of the strip light guide 121, and then etching away the metal circuit layer corresponding to the light emitting area 1211, leaving only the metal circuit layer in the antenna wiring area 1212, and the unetched metal circuit layer forms the conductive layer 150. Wrapping the metal circuit layer on the strip light guide 121 can be achieved by processes such as electroplating and sputtering, and etching the excess metal circuit layer can be achieved by a mask etching process. Of course, other etching processes can also be used. Of course, setting the conductive layer 150 on the strip light guide 121 can also be set by other processes, which are not limited in this article.

[0036] In the above scheme, a light-transmitting gap can be formed between the decorative member 110 and the outer surface of the shell 200 of the electronic device, and the light effect module 120 can be arranged on the surface of the side of the decorative member 110 facing the shell 200. At this time, the light emitting area 1211 of the strip-shaped light guide member 121 faces the light-transmitting gap, and the antenna wiring area 1212 is located on the side of the strip-shaped light guide member 121 away from the light-transmitting gap. Alternatively, in another scheme, the edge of the decorative member 110 can be provided with a transparent area, and at this time, the light emitting area 1211 of the strip-shaped light guide member 121 faces the transparent area, and the light emitted by the light emitting area 1211 is directed to the transparent area of the decorative member 110, thereby forming a light effect at the edge of the decorative member 110. The transparent area can be arranged on the side edge of the decorative member 110, and of course can also be arranged on the end surface of the decorative member 110, which is not limited herein.

[0037] In another alternative embodiment, the decorative member 110 can include an outer support 111 and a cover plate 112. The outer support 111 can be mounted on the outer surface of the electronic device, and the outer support 111 can have a first surface 111a and a second surface 111b arranged opposite to each other. The first surface 111a faces the outer surface of the shell 200 of the electronic device, and the cover plate 112 is stacked on the side of the second surface 111b of the outer support 111 and surrounds the outer support 111 to form a containing cavity. The cover plate 112 is used to cover the second surface 111b of the outer support 111. The strip-shaped light guide member 121 and the light emitting source 122 are both located in the containing cavity. The outer support 111 and the cover plate 112 form the containing cavity, thereby being capable of containing the strip-shaped light guide member 121 and the light emitting source 122.

[0038] In this scheme, the outer support 111 and the cover plate 112 are both located on the outer surface of the shell 200, thereby facilitating the formation of the light effect and avoiding the shielding of the light effect by the shell 200. In addition, the strip-shaped light guide member 121 is arranged on the outer support 111, which also makes the conductive layer 150 away from the devices inside the shell 200, thereby being capable of avoiding the influence of the devices inside the shell 200 on the conductive layer 150, and further improving the antenna performance.

[0039] Optionally, the light emitting area 1211 of the strip-shaped light guide member 121 can face the cover plate 112, and the side of the strip-shaped light guide member 121 away from the cover plate 112 can be the antenna wiring area 1212. At this time, a light-transmitting gap can be arranged between the outer support 111 and the cover plate 112. Alternatively, the cover plate 112 itself can be a transparent structure.

[0040] In the embodiments disclosed in the present application, Figure 5As shown, the decorative member 110 may include an inner bracket 113, which is located inside the housing 200 and connected to the housing 200. The inner bracket 113 is used to fix the outer bracket 111, thereby improving the connection strength between the decorative member 110 and the housing 200. The inner bracket 113, the outer bracket 111 and the cover plate 112 may all be provided with corresponding light-transmitting holes or holes, which form the above-mentioned light-transmitting areas, and external light enters the camera module through the light-transmitting holes or holes. For example, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the outer bracket 111 is provided with a light hole 1112, where the light hole 1112 can be opposite to the lens of the camera module for passing light through the lens. Of course, the cover plate 112 and the inner bracket 113 can also be provided with corresponding light holes 1112.

[0041] In another optional solution, the camera decorative assembly 100 may further include a ferrite 130. The ferrite 130 may be attached to the decorative member 110. To prevent the ferrite 130 from being exposed, the ferrite 130 may be attached to the inner side of the decorative member 110, that is, the side facing away from the user. The ferrite 130 is disposed opposite the strip light guide 121. In this solution, the strip light guide 121 is located in the area where the ferrite 130 is located. The ferrite 130 can constrain the magnetic flux in the corresponding area of ​​the conductive layer 150, thereby reducing the interference of the internal components of the electronic device on the antenna performance, thereby further improving the performance of the antenna.

[0042] In the above solution, the ferrite 130 may be attached to the second surface 111 b or to the surface of the cover facing the second surface 111 b.

[0043] In another alternative embodiment, the ferrite 130 can be attached to the first surface 111a, and the orthographic projection of the strip light guide 121 can be located within the orthographic projection of the ferrite 130 in a direction perpendicular to the first surface 111a. In this embodiment, the ferrite 130 is attached to the first surface 111a, that is, the ferrite 130 is located between the first surface 111a and the outer surface of the housing 200, thereby avoiding the risk of interference between the ferrite 130 and the strip light guide 121 and the light source 122, thereby reducing the difficulty of assembling the camera decorative assembly 100.

[0044] In the above solution, in order to avoid the holes on the outer bracket 111, the ferrite 130 can be a ring structure, and the inner ring area of ​​the ferrite 130 is opposite to the holes on the outer bracket 111, thereby avoiding covering the holes on the outer bracket 111.

[0045] In another optional embodiment, the strip-shaped light guide 121 and the light source 122 can both be arranged on the second surface 111b, and the outer bracket 111 can be provided with a avoidance hole 1111, and the avoidance hole 1111 can pass through the first surface 111a to the second surface 111b. One end of the electrical connector 123 can be arranged on the second surface 111b, and the other end of the electrical connector 123 can pass through the avoidance hole 1111 and go around to the side where the first surface 111a is located. In this solution, the electrical connector 123 can be guided from the second surface 111b to the first surface 111a facing the inner cavity of the shell 200 through the avoidance hole 1111, thereby simplifying the circuit structure on the camera decorative component 100, and further facilitating the electrical connection between the circuit structure on the camera decorative component 100 and the circuit board of the electronic device, which is conducive to simplifying the circuit structure of the electronic device.

[0046] Furthermore, the electrical connector 123 may include a flexible circuit board 1231 and a contact connecting portion 1232. The contact connecting portion 1232 may be arranged on the first surface 111a, and the contact connecting portion 1232 is used to electrically connect to the circuit board of the electronic device. The contact connecting portion 1232 here may be a spring structure, a pin structure or a gold finger, etc. The contact connecting portion 1232 here is fixed on the first surface 111a. The first end of the flexible circuit board 1231 is attached to the second surface 111b. The conductive layer 150 and the light source 122 can both be electrically connected to the first end of the flexible circuit board. The second end of the flexible circuit board 1231 can pass through the avoidance hole 1111 to the side where the first surface 111a is located, and be electrically connected to the contact connecting portion 1232. This solution can further optimize the circuit structure on the camera decorative component 100.

[0047] In the above solution, the strip-shaped light guide 121 can be a linear strip structure. In this case, there can be multiple strip-shaped light guides 121, each of which can correspond to an edge of the decorative member 110. The multiple strip-shaped light guides 121 can form a ring-shaped light effect around the outer periphery of the decorative member 110. Correspondingly, multiple light sources 122 need to be provided.

[0048] In another alternative, the strip-shaped light guide 121 can be formed into a ring-shaped structure. Specifically, the strip-shaped light guide 121 can be formed into a ring-shaped structure by heat bending. Thus, the strip-shaped light guide 121 can be bent into a ring-shaped structure that conforms to the contour of the decorative element 110. In this case, the camera decorative assembly 100 can be provided with only one strip-shaped light guide 121 and one light source 122, thereby reducing the number of components in the light effect module 120 and further facilitating a thinner and lighter camera decorative assembly 100.

[0049] Furthermore, the outer circumference of the strip-shaped light guide 121 may be provided with a plurality of toothed structures 1213, which may be arranged at intervals along the extension direction of the strip-shaped light guide 121. In this solution, providing the toothed structures 1213 on the outer circumference of the strip-shaped light guide 121 can effectively relieve bending stress of the strip-shaped light guide 121, thereby reducing the risk of breakage of the strip-shaped light guide 121. Furthermore, the plurality of toothed structures 1213 can also increase the number of light reflections within the strip-shaped light guide 121, thereby further improving the uniformity of the lighting effect.

[0050] In another optional embodiment, the strip-shaped light guide 121 may include a light incident section 121a and a light guiding section 121b connected to each other. The end of the light incident section 121a facing away from the light guiding section 121b may be arranged opposite the light source 122. The conductive layer 150 provided on the light incident section 121a may be electrically connected to the electrical connector 123 via a conductive adhesive layer 162. Specifically, the conductive layer 150 provided on the light incident section 121a may be electrically connected to the first end of the flexible circuit board 1231 via the conductive adhesive layer 162. The conductive layer 150 provided on the light guiding section 121b may be bonded to the decorative member 110 via an insulating adhesive layer 161. Specifically, the conductive layer 150 provided on the light guiding section 121b may be bonded to the second surface 111b via the insulating adhesive layer 161. The conductive adhesive layer 162 may be a conductive silver paste layer, or other conductive adhesive layer. The insulating adhesive layer 161 may be a structure having adhesive properties such as foam, double-sided tape, or glue.

[0051] The light entry section 121a here refers to the area where light rays first enter the strip light guide 121. This section can be understood as mixing the incoming light rays. It can also be understood that the area of ​​the strip light guide 121 close to the light source 122 is the light entry section 121a. The light guiding section 121b is the area where the primary light effect is generated. Here, it can be understood that the area of ​​the strip light guide 121 far from the light source 122 is the light guiding section 121b.

[0052] This solution can not only improve the connection reliability between the conductive layer 150 and the electrical connector 123 , but also improve the connection reliability between the strip light guide 121 and the decorative member 110 . Therefore, the camera decorative assembly 100 disclosed in this application has good assembly reliability.

[0053] In the above solution, the strip-shaped light guide 121 has two light incident sections 121 a , which are respectively located at the two opposite ends of the light guide section 121 b , and are both arranged opposite to the light source 122 .

[0054] Furthermore, the camera decorative assembly 100 may further include an elastic pressing member 140. The elastic pressing member 140 may be located on the side of the strip light guide 121 facing away from the conductive layer 150, and the elastic pressing member 140 is pressed against the light incident section 121a. In this case, the elastic pressing member 140 can press the light incident section 121a against the electrical connector 123, thereby further improving the connection reliability between the conductive layer 150 and the electrical connector 123.

[0055] Optionally, the elastic pressing member 140 can be provided on the decorative member 110. For example, it can be provided on the side of the cover plate 112 facing the second surface 111b. Alternatively, the elastic pressing member 140 can be provided on the light source 122, such as Figure 4 As shown, Figure 4 This is a partial cross-sectional view of the light source 122. The light source 122 may include a light source bracket 122a and a light-emitting element. The light source bracket 122a defines a mounting space, and the light-emitting element is positioned within the mounting hole. In this case, at least a portion of the light-entering section 121a may be positioned within the mounting space, and the elastic compression member 140 may be positioned within the mounting space, thereby compressing the light-entering section 121a. Of course, to facilitate electrical connection between the light-entering element and the conductive layer 150 on the light-entering section 121a and the electrical connector 123, a portion of the electrical connector 123 may also be positioned within the mounting space. For example, the first end of the flexible circuit board 1231 may extend into the mounting space.

[0056] Optionally, the elastic pressing member 140 can be made of elastic foam, rubber, etc. Of course, the elastic pressing member 140 can also be made of other materials, which is not limited in this article.

[0057] In another optional solution, an insulating layer may be provided on the outer surface of the conductive layer 150 provided on the light guiding segment 121b. In this solution, the insulating layer can avoid the risk of short circuit of the conductive layer 150, thereby improving the reliability of the antenna function.

[0058] Optionally, the insulating layer may be an insulating varnish coated on the outer surface of the conductive layer 150 , or may be other insulating coating structures, which is not limited herein.

[0059] In the above solution, the conductive layer 150 can be a circuit layer, and of course it can also be etched into multiple circuit layers arranged in parallel. Multiple circuit layers are beneficial to reducing the stress when the strip light guide 121 is bent, thereby reducing the risk of cracking of the circuit layer.

[0060] In another optional embodiment, the strip-shaped light guide 121 may be a light-guiding optical fiber.
