Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application belongs to the field of electronic equipment technology, and specifically provides an electronic device. Background Technology
[0002] In related technologies, electronic devices typically have a metal decorative ring between the lens and the cover of the camera, and a flash is placed outside the metal decorative ring.
[0003] However, since the lens, metal decorative ring, and cover are all separate designs, the cover and metal decorative ring of electronic devices are prone to cracking, which affects the dustproof and waterproof performance of electronic devices. Summary of the Invention
[0004] This application aims to provide an electronic device that solves the technical problem that the separate design of the decorative ring and the cover of the electronic device is prone to cracking, affecting the dustproof and waterproof performance of the electronic device.
[0005] This application provides an electronic device, including:
[0006] The cover includes a camera hole, a first light-transmitting part, and a light-shielding part. The first light-transmitting part is located outside the camera hole, and the light-shielding part is located outside the first light-transmitting part.
[0007] The lens is located inside the camera hole, and the edge of the lens is connected to the camera hole.
[0008] The light-emitting element is located on one side of the cover;
[0009] A light guide structure is located on one side of the cover. The light guide structure includes an incident part and an exiting part. The incident part and the light-emitting element are arranged opposite to each other, and the exiting part and the first light-transmitting part are arranged opposite to each other.
[0010] The electronic device provided in this application includes a cover and a lens. The cover includes a camera hole, and the lens is set inside the camera hole and connected to the edge of the camera hole. This eliminates the need for a separate decorative ring, resulting in better consistency of the entire cover and improving the dustproof and waterproof performance of the electronic device.
[0011] Furthermore, the electronic device also includes a light-emitting element and a light-guiding structure, and the cover also includes a first light-transmitting part and a light-shielding part. The first light-transmitting part is located outside the camera hole, and the light-shielding part is located outside the first light-transmitting part.
[0012] The light-emitting element and the light-guiding structure are located on the same side of the cover. The incident part of the light-guiding structure and the light-emitting element are arranged opposite to each other, and the exit part of the light-guiding structure and the first light-transmitting part are arranged opposite to each other. Thus, the light emitted by the light-emitting element can enter the light-guiding structure through the incident part of the light-guiding structure, exit the light-guiding structure through the exit part of the light-guiding structure, and enter the first light-transmitting part, thereby achieving the effect of illumination or supplementary light on the outside of the lens.
[0013] Furthermore, a light-shielding part is provided on the outside of the first light-transmitting part, which allows light to propagate only through the first light-transmitting part, thereby reducing the possibility of the entire cover emitting light.

[0037] The following is combined with Figures 1 to 14 The electronic device according to an embodiment of this application is described, and the arrows in the figure represent light rays.
[0038] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6A , Figure 6B , Figure 7 , Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, this application provides an electronic device 1, including: a cover 11, the cover 11 including a camera hole 111, a first light-transmitting part 112 and a light-shielding part 113, the first light-transmitting part 112 being located outside the camera hole 111 and the light-shielding part 113 being located outside the first light-transmitting part 112; a lens 12, located inside the camera hole 111, the lens 12 being connected to the edge of the camera hole 111; a light-emitting element 13, located on one side of the cover 11; and a light guide structure 14, located on one side of the cover 11, the light guide structure 14 including an incident part 141 and an exiting part 142, the incident part 141 and the light-emitting element 13 being disposed opposite to each other, and the exiting part 142 and the first light-transmitting part 112 being disposed opposite to each other.
[0039] The electronic device 1 provided in this application includes a cover 11 and a lens 12. The cover 11 includes a camera hole 111. The lens 12 is disposed inside the camera hole 111 and connected to the edge of the camera hole 111. This eliminates the need for a separate decorative ring, resulting in better consistency of the entire cover 11 and improving the dustproof and waterproof performance of the electronic device 1.
[0040] Furthermore, the electronic device 1 also includes a light-emitting element 13 and a light-guiding structure 14, and the cover 11 also includes a first light-transmitting part 112 and a light-shielding part 113. The first light-transmitting part 112 is located outside the camera hole 111, and the light-shielding part 113 is located outside the first light-transmitting part 112.
[0041] The light-emitting element 13 and the light-guiding structure 14 are located on the same side of the cover 11. The incident portion 141 of the light-guiding structure 14 and the light-emitting element 13 are arranged opposite to each other, and the exit portion 142 of the light-guiding structure 14 and the first light-transmitting portion 112 are arranged opposite to each other. Thus, the light emitted by the light-emitting element 13 can enter the light-guiding structure 14 through the incident portion 141, exit the light-guiding structure 14 through the exit portion 142, and enter the first light-transmitting portion 112, thereby achieving the effect of illumination or supplementary light on the outside of the lens 12.
[0042] Furthermore, a light-shielding part 113 is provided on the outside of the first light-transmitting part 112, which allows light to propagate only through the first light-transmitting part 112, thereby reducing the possibility of the cover 11 emitting light as a whole.
[0043] Since the light-emitting element 13 transmits light through the light guide structure 14, the placement of the light-emitting element 13 has greater freedom and is more convenient for the stacking design of internal components of the electronic device 1.
[0044] For example, by placing the light-emitting element 13 in a position close to the frame 19 or heat spreader of the electronic device 1, the heat dissipation effect of the light-emitting element 13 can be improved.
[0045] According to some embodiments of this application, the cover 11 is made of glass, and the light-shielding part 113 is obtained by blackening a portion of the cover 11.
[0046] Specifically, the cover 11 is made of glass, and the light-shielding part 113 is obtained by partially blackening the cover 11, so that the entire cover 11 is a whole, eliminating the metal decorative ring, so that the cover 11 has no metal parts, improving the consistency of the appearance of the electronic device 1, improving the dustproof and waterproof performance of the electronic device 1, reducing interference to the internal antenna of the electronic device 1, reducing the risk of the cover 11 being affected by static electricity, which could cause the internal components of the electronic device 1 to be damaged, and reducing the weight of the electronic device 1.
[0047] Alternatively, blackened glass can be achieved through a photosensitive blackening mechanism, that is, by irradiating a localized area of the glass with ultraviolet light, the Ce inside the glass is blackened. 3+ It loses an electron (e) to form Ce. 4+ Subsequently, the glass subjected to localized ultraviolet irradiation was heat-treated. During the heat treatment process, the electrophoretic (e) and ag content in the locally irradiated area were measured. + Ag atoms combine to form Ag atoms, and finally, the Ag atoms in this region aggregate into Ag through heat treatment. 0 n Particles, Ag 0 n The particles can absorb visible light, making the glass appear black. Ce represents cerium, and Ag represents silver.
[0048] Furthermore, blackened glass is a type of photosensitive glass. Photosensitizers and metal ions are added to the glass, and it is activated by ultraviolet light to achieve electron migration, thereby forming metal atoms. During the heat treatment process, the metal atoms cluster to form metal particles. Due to the differences in their shape or grain size, they absorb different wavelengths of visible light, causing the glass to appear black, red, or other colors. By superimposing a mask, local color changes can be achieved.
[0049] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6A , Figure 6B , Figure 7 , Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, according to some embodiments of this application, the cover 11 further includes a second light-transmitting portion 114, which is located outside the light-shielding portion 113, and the light-shielding portion 113 has an annular structure.
[0050] Specifically, the cover 11 also includes a second light-transmitting part 114 located outside the light-shielding part 113. The light-shielding part 113 has a ring-shaped structure, so that the light emitted by the light-emitting element 13 is emitted only through the inner side of the light-shielding part 113, while the outer side of the light-shielding part 113 is still the light-transmitting second light-transmitting part 114, thereby improving the aesthetics of the electronic device 1 and enabling it to better adapt to various base colors.
[0051] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, according to some embodiments of this application, the first light-transmitting part 112 has an annular structure and is disposed around the camera hole 111; the light-shielding part 113 has an annular structure and is disposed around the first light-transmitting part 112.
[0052] Specifically, the first light-transmitting part 112 has an annular structure and is arranged around the camera hole 111. The light-shielding part 113 has an annular structure and is arranged around the first light-transmitting part 112. This allows light to be emitted from the first light-transmitting part 112 around the camera hole 111, and the light has a larger emission area, thereby improving the supplementary lighting effect for shooting and meeting the needs of higher and farther illumination.
[0053] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 6A , Figure 6B , Figure 7 , Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, according to some embodiments of this application, the first light-transmitting portion 112 and the light-shielding portion 113 are provided to protrude from the side of the cover 11 away from the light-emitting element 13.
[0054] Specifically, since the camera 17 of the electronic device 1 usually protrudes, the first light-transmitting part 112 and the light-shielding part 113 are configured to protrude toward the side of the cover 11 away from the light-emitting element 13, which can better fit the camera 17 and better protect the lens 12.
[0055] In this case, the lens 12 and the first light-transmitting part 112 are flush with the side of the light-emitting element 13 away from the light-emitting element 13, or the lens 12 is close to the light-emitting element 13 relative to the side of the first light-transmitting part 112 away from the light-emitting element 13.
[0056] The side of the light-shielding part 113 that is away from the light-emitting element 13 can be an arc-shaped or stepped structure with varying height, so that there is a better transition between the first light-transmitting part 112 and the second light-transmitting part 114.
[0057] The cover 11 can be made using a cold carving process to cut and process a thicker piece of glass, forming a thick crater-like structure for the first light-transmitting part 112 and the light-shielding part 113. The thickness of the second light-transmitting part 114 can be around 0.5 mm. Then, a local blackening treatment is applied to the light-shielding part 113. However, there is a whole ring of the first light-transmitting part 112 near the inner side of the camera hole 111. The wall thickness of the first light-transmitting part 112 is between 0.5 mm and 1.0 mm. Then, a layer of black ink is sprayed on the inner wall of the first light-transmitting part 112 to form a light-shielding layer 16. The light-shielding layer 16 can absorb the light emitted by the light-emitting element 13 and also absorb the light entering the first light-transmitting part 112 from the outside, reducing the possibility of light entering the lens 12 and affecting the imaging of the camera 17.
[0058] like Figure 10 , Figure 11 , Figure 12 , Figure 13 and Figure 14 As shown, according to some embodiments of this application, the light guide structure 14 is an optical fiber, the incident part 141 is an opening, the exit part 142 is an opening, and the incident part 141 and the exit part 142 are connected.
[0059] Specifically, the light guide structure 14 is an optical fiber. The optical fiber has good light guiding performance and a certain degree of flexibility, which can better adapt to the shape of the first light-transmitting part 112. Both the incident part 141 and the exit part 142 are open. The incident part 141 and the light-emitting element 13 are arranged opposite each other, and the exit part 142 and the first light-transmitting part 112 are arranged opposite each other. The incident part 141 and the exit part 142 are connected. The light emitted by the light-emitting element 13 can enter the optical fiber through the incident part 141, be reflected in the optical fiber, and then exit the optical fiber through the exit part 142 and enter the first light-transmitting part 112. Then, the light emitted from the side of the first light-transmitting part 112 away from the light guide structure 14 exits the cover 11, realizing functions such as illumination or supplementary lighting.
[0060] Furthermore, optical fibers are small in size and occupy less space inside electronic device 1, which is beneficial for the stacking of devices inside electronic device 1.
[0061] Optical fibers consist of an outer sheath with a high refractive index and an inner core with a low refractive index. Based on the principle of total internal reflection, when light enters the optical fiber at a specific angle, it will undergo total internal reflection inside the optical fiber, and theoretically there is no loss of light brightness.
[0062] When a gap is cut out in the outer sheath of the optical fiber with a high refractive index at a local location, the light transmitted inside the optical fiber will be emitted from the gap, realizing the transmission of light along the length of the optical fiber.
[0063] like Figure 13 and Figure 14 As shown, according to some embodiments of this application, the light guide structure 14 includes an annular portion 143, the first light-transmitting portion 112 is an annular structure, and the annular portion 143 and the first light-transmitting portion 112 are disposed opposite to each other; the annular portion 143 is provided with at least one emission portion 142.
[0064] Specifically, the light guide structure 14 includes an annular portion 143 and the first light-transmitting portion 112 is an annular structure. The annular portion 143 and the first light-transmitting portion 112 are arranged opposite to each other, so that the shapes of the light guide structure 14 and the first light-transmitting portion 112 correspond. Furthermore, the annular portion 143 is provided with one or more emission portions 142. Multiple emission portions 142 can make the brightness of the first light-transmitting portion 112 more uniform.
[0065] like Figure 13 and Figure 14As shown, according to some embodiments of this application, the light guide structure 14 further includes an extension 144, which is connected to the annular portion 143. The extension 144 and the light-emitting element 13 are disposed opposite to each other, and the extension 144 is provided with at least one incident portion 141.
[0066] Specifically, the light guide structure 14 also includes an extension 144 disposed on one side of the annular portion 143 and communicating with the annular portion 143. The extension 144 is disposed opposite to the light-emitting element 13. The extension 144 is provided with at least one incident portion 141. Since the camera 17 is located inside the camera hole 111, that is, the camera 17 is located inside the annular portion 143, the distance between the light-emitting element 13 and the camera 17 can be lengthened by extending the extension 144, thereby making the distance between the light-emitting element 13 and the camera 17 longer, thereby reducing the possibility of mutual influence between the heat of the light-emitting element 13 and the heat of the camera 17.
[0067] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 , Figure 9 , Figure 13 and Figure 14 As shown, according to some embodiments of this application, the electronic device 1 further includes a light-concentrating element 15 disposed between the light-emitting element 13 and the light-guiding structure 14.
[0068] Specifically, the electronic device 1 also includes a light-concentrating element 15 disposed between the light-emitting element 13 and the light-guiding structure 14. The light-concentrating element 15 can concentrate the light emitted by the light-emitting element 13, so that more light enters the light-guiding structure 14.
[0069] like Figure 1 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 7 and Figure 9 As shown, according to some embodiments of this application, the electronic device 1 further includes a light-shielding layer 16 disposed on the side of the first light-transmitting portion 112 facing the camera hole 111.
[0070] Specifically, the electronic device 1 also includes a light-shielding layer 16 disposed on the side of the first light-transmitting portion 112 facing the camera hole 111. The light-shielding layer 16 can reduce the light propagating to the camera hole 111, thereby reducing the impact of light on the camera 17 and improving the shooting effect of the electronic device 1.
[0071] This embodiment of the application, based on the design of the unequal thickness cover body 11, forms a volcano-shaped structure around the lens 12 instead of the traditional decorative ring. Furthermore, it employs a partial blackening glass technology, using light activation to form a blackened glass wall, i.e., a light-shielding part 113, on the glass. Black ink is sprayed onto the sidewall of the first light-transmitting part 112 to form a light-shielding layer 16, creating a transparent first light-transmitting part 112 between the blackened light-shielding part 113 and the light-shielding layer 16. Light emitted by the light-emitting element 13 passes through a complete light-guiding structure 14 and exits at the emission end. When external light hits the first light-transmitting part 112, it is absorbed by the light-shielding part 113 and the light-shielding layer 16, so the first light-transmitting part 112 of the lens 12 appears black from the outside, thus achieving a unified black effect for the first light-transmitting part 112, the light-shielding layer 16, and the light-shielding part 113.
[0072] like Figure 6A and Figure 6B As shown, for a structure with an aspect ratio greater than 1, if a light-shielding layer 16 is provided on one side of the first light-transmitting part 112 and a light-shielding part 113 is provided on the other side, both of which are black, and the side of the first light-transmitting part 112 located inside the electronic device 1 has a rough surface, when external light enters the first light guide part at a specific angle, the light will be absorbed by the light-shielding layer 16 and the light-shielding part 113. The light entering the first light guide part will also be absorbed by the light-shielding layer 16 and the light-shielding part 113 after diffuse reflection. Since there is no optical reflection for the first light-transmitting part 112, the first light-transmitting part 112 appears black to the naked eye.
[0073] like Figures 1 to 14 As shown, according to some embodiments of this application, the electronic device 1 includes a lens 12, a camera 17, a cover 11, a light-shielding layer 16, a light guide structure 14, a light-emitting element 13, a light-concentrating element 15, a circuit board 18, a frame 19, and a display screen 20.
[0074] The lens 12 serves as a protective structure for the camera 17 and is also a channel for external light to enter the camera 17, while corresponding to the light-emitting area of the light-emitting element 13.
[0075] Camera 17 is the shooting component of electronic device 1, located inside lens 12.
[0076] The cover 11 is supported by blackened glass of varying thickness. The cover 11 forms a raised crater at the position of the camera 17, replacing the traditional metal decorative ring. Furthermore, a light-shielding part 113 is formed around the camera 17, which is formed by blackening the glass.
[0077] The light-shielding layer 16 is sprayed on the side of the first light-transmitting part 112 facing the camera 17, and serves to absorb light.
[0078] The light guide structure 14 directs the light emitted by the light-emitting element 13 to a ring around the outside of the camera 17 and emits light towards the outside of the electronic device 1.
[0079] The light-emitting element 13 is arranged on the side. The light emitted by the light-emitting element 13 can be white light or red, green and blue (RGB) light. The light-emitting elements 13 are arranged at equal intervals to achieve different light emission color effects. Breathing light effect or surround light effect can also be achieved by controlling the switching of different light-emitting elements 13.
[0080] The focusing element 15 can be a prism. The light emitted by the light-emitting element 13 is divergent. The light is focused by the focusing element 15 to a specific angle and enters the light guide structure 14 to form a total internal reflection light guide.
[0081] The circuit board 18 is a surface mount carrier for the light-emitting element 13, and transmits the current and control signals of the light-emitting element 13.
[0082] A cover 11 is provided on one side of the frame 19, and a display screen 20 is provided on the other side.
[0083] A light-emitting element 13 is mounted on the circuit board 18. A focusing element 15, such as a focusing prism, is designed in front of the light-emitting element 13. The light is focused by the focusing element 15 to a specific angle and enters the light guide structure 14, forming a total internal reflection light guide in the light guide structure 14. After the light enters the light guide structure 14, it is conducted around a ring-shaped portion 143 and emitted at the exit end of the light guide structure 14. As the propagation length of the light guide structure 14 increases, the light intensity will decrease to some extent. In order to ensure uniform light intensity of the ring-shaped portion 143, the notch at part of the exit end of the ring-shaped portion 143 will be appropriately enlarged.
[0084] The light emitted horizontally by the light-emitting element 13 is conducted through the light guide structure 14 and then emitted from the annular portion 143. The emitted light passes through the first light-transmitting portion 112 of the cover 11 and reaches the outside of the electronic device. Since both the inner and outer sides of the first light-transmitting portion 112 are made of black material, external light also forms a black image. At the same time, the light-emitting element 13 is located below the lens 12, so it is not visible from the outside, thus ensuring the light emission efficiency.
[0085] When external light is incident on the first light-transmitting part 112 at an outward angle, it is absorbed by the light-shielding layer 16 and the light-shielding part 113. When external light is incident perpendicularly on the bottom of the first light-transmitting part 112, due to the slow reflection effect at the bottom, the light is absorbed by the light-shielding layer 16 and the light-shielding part 113, and the light can no longer be reflected out of the first light-transmitting part 112. Therefore, when the light-emitting element 13 is off, the first light-transmitting part 112 is black.
[0086] The electronic device 1 provided in this application embodiment uses an integrated glass cover 11 instead of a combination of a back cover and a decorative ring, eliminating the gap formed between the decorative ring and the back cover and improving the overall appearance of the electronic device 1. Eliminating the need for adhesive sealing between the decorative ring and the back cover reduces the risk of water and dust ingress into the electronic device 1.
[0087] Furthermore, eliminating the metal decorative ring increases the antenna clearance, improving its radiation performance and reducing the risk of radio frequency signal interference. The absence of a path for external static electricity to pass through the decorative ring also reduces the risk of sensors such as the camera being damaged by external static electricity.
[0088] Glass has a lower density than metal decorative rings, and there is no need to design a fixed adhesive structure, which increases the weight and stacking space of electronic device 1.
[0089] Since the first light-transmitting part 112 appears black on the outside, which is consistent with the black base paint color of the lens 12, it does not affect the external light of the electronic device 1 and better achieves a unified black effect with the lens 12.
[0090] Since the exterior of the first light-transmitting part 112 appears black, the size of the light-emitting area of the first light-transmitting part 112 is not limited by external light. The light-emitting area of the first light-transmitting part 112 is larger, which can meet the illumination requirements of higher and farther brightness.
[0091] Compared to the traditional small ring flash design, since the first light-transmitting part 112 is a large ring surrounding the camera 17, the light illuminating the subject (such as a person's face) is softer and more uniform when taking pictures at night, resulting in better photo effects.
[0092] Since the first light-transmitting part 112 appears black on the outside, it is not restricted by the symmetrical layout of the appearance, making the stacking layout of the cameras 17 more flexible and increasing the degree of freedom when stacking.
[0093] Since the first light-transmitting part 112 is a large ring surrounding the camera 17, it makes full use of the space around the camera 17, which is conducive to maximizing the space utilization of the decorative area of the electronic device 1.
[0094] Since the first light-transmitting part 112 is glass surrounding the camera 17, the light-emitting element 13 can be close to the first light-transmitting part 112, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect of the light-emitting element 13.
