[0056] The technical solutions in the embodiments (or "implementations") of this application will be clearly and completely described herein with reference to the accompanying drawings. When the following description relates to the drawings, unless otherwise indicated, the same numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements.

[0057] If the embodiments of this application contain terms relating to directional indications or positional relationships (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, inside, outside, top, bottom, center, vertical, horizontal, longitudinal, transverse, length, width, counterclockwise, clockwise, axial, radial, circumferential, etc.), such terms are only used to explain the relative positional relationships and movements between components in a specific posture (as shown in the attached figures); if the specific posture changes, the directional indications or positional relationships will also change accordingly. Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" used in the embodiments of this application are only for descriptive convenience and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0058] In related technologies, the assembly of an electronic device housing with the device body serves to house and protect the device body, while also forming the main appearance of the electronic device. However, in these related technologies, the housings of electronic devices are mostly structural components, achieving the desired appearance with a fixed structure, which cannot meet users' needs for intelligent use of the housing.

[0059] This disclosure provides a device housing. Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the light-emitting main body of the device housing in a lit state according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 2 This is a schematic cross-sectional view of a device housing according to an exemplary embodiment of this disclosure, as shown below. Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the device housing 1 includes a first stacked structure 11 and a second stacked structure 12 stacked in the thickness direction of the device housing 1. The first stacked structure 11 includes a light-emitting layer 111, which includes a plurality of light-emitting elements 1111. The second stacked structure 12 includes a pressure-sensing layer 121, and the light-emitting elements 1111 are electrically connected to the pressure-sensing layer 121 to adjust the brightness parameters of the light-emitting elements 1111 according to the sensing data of the pressure-sensing layer 121.

[0060] The first stacked structure 11 of the aforementioned device housing 1 includes a light-emitting layer 111, and the second stacked structure 12 of the device housing 1 includes a pressure-sensing layer 121. The light-emitting body 1111 of the light-emitting layer 111 is electrically connected to the pressure-sensing layer 121 to adjust the brightness parameters of the light-emitting body 1111 according to the sensing data of the pressure-sensing layer 121. Since the first stacked structure 11 and the second stacked structure 12 are stacked in the thickness direction of the electronic device, the pressure-sensing layer 121 and the light-emitting layer 111 can utilize the stacked structure to achieve pressure sensing, light emission, and correlation functions, which helps to simplify the structure of the device housing 1 and improve the thinness, interactive experience, and intelligence of the device housing 1 and the electronic device. For example, by controlling the opening and closing of each light-emitting body 1111, different patterns such as starry skies, constellations, company logos, letters, numbers, and emoticons can be displayed in a designated area of ​​the device housing 1. The device housing 1 can display in sections or in combination, such as vertical sections, horizontal sections, diagonal sections, or stepped sections.

[0061] In some embodiments, the light-emitting layer 111 may further include a circuit board 1112, and the light-emitting body 1111 is disposed on the circuit board 1112 to facilitate the installation and control of the light-emitting body 1111.

[0062] The light-emitting body 1111 can be a silicon-based LED (Light Emitting Diode), and the circuit board 1112 can be a flexible circuit board. The silicon-based LED is mounted on the flexible circuit board to obtain a thin and light-emitting layer 111.

[0063] like Figure 3 As shown, the first layered structure 11 may further include an encapsulating adhesive layer 112, which covers multiple light-emitting elements 1111 to protect them and prevent damage during installation and use from impacts and pressure. The encapsulating adhesive can be applied to the side of the circuit board 1112 where the light-emitting elements 1111 are located, and after curing, it forms the encapsulating adhesive layer 112 to cover the light-emitting elements 1111.

[0064] For example Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the light-emitting body 1111 adopts miniLED, and the size of a single miniLED can be 0.1mm*0.2mm*0.1mm. The overall thickness of the first stacked structure 11, which is formed by applying encapsulating glue to one side of the circuit board 1112 and covering the LED, can reach 0.12mm to 0.15mm, thus helping to improve the thinness and lightness of the device housing 1.

[0065] It should be noted that the light-emitting body 1111 mentioned above can be other types of LEDs, or other components that can be electrically controlled to emit light, such as electroluminescent components. This disclosure does not limit this.

[0066] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 As shown, the pressure sensing layer 121 can be a piezoelectric material layer, and the second stacked structure 12 also includes electrode layers 122 disposed on both sides of the piezoelectric material layer. The positive piezoelectric properties of the piezoelectric material layer can be used to determine the magnitude of the pressure acting on the piezoelectric material layer. When the piezoelectric material layer is pressed, it deforms and generates a voltage signal. The greater the pressing force, the greater the output voltage signal, and the smaller the pressing force, the smaller the output voltage signal.

[0067] Among them, such as Figure 6 As shown, the piezoelectric material layer may include an array of piezoelectric units 1211. The sensing data obtained by the array of piezoelectric units 1211 can be used to determine the pressure magnitude and the direction of pressure extension. The direction of pressure extension is the sliding operation direction of the sliding pressure application.

[0068] It should be noted that the piezoelectric material layer mentioned above can be made of one of PVDF (Polyvinylidene fluoride), PVDF-TrFe (Polyvinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene), or PZT (piezoelectric ceramic transducer). For example, a thin film layer can be made of a mixture of PZT and adhesive. The electrode layer 122 can be made of one of silver or copper, or other metal materials. For example, the electrode layer 122 can be coated with a metal material such as silver paste, or it can be electroplated with a metal material such as copper by magnetron sputtering.

[0069] In the above embodiments, the first laminated structure 11 and the second laminated structure 12 can be bonded and fixed by an optical adhesive layer 15, so as to avoid affecting the function of the first laminated structure 11 and the second laminated structure 12 by utilizing the high light transmittance of the optical adhesive. The optical adhesive layer 15 can be an OCA (Optically Clear Adhesive) adhesive layer.

[0070] In some embodiments, the device housing 1 may further include a color layer 13, which is bonded to the side of the first laminated structure 11 opposite to the second laminated structure 12 by an optical adhesive layer 15, so that the device can achieve a vibrant appearance through the color layer 13. The color of the color layer 13 can be white, black, pink, etc., and this disclosure does not limit this. When the housing is transparent, the color layer 13 may not be provided.

[0071] In some embodiments, the device housing 1 further includes a cover layer 14, which is disposed on the side of the first stacked structure 11 facing away from the second stacked structure 12, and covers the first stacked structure 11. Covering the first stacked structure 11 with the cover layer 14 protects the first stacked structure 11, preventing wear and tear that could affect its function. The cover layer 14 can be made of materials such as glass or plastic.

[0072] This disclosure further provides an electronic device, which includes a device body and the aforementioned device housing 1.

[0073] It should be noted that the aforementioned device housing 1 can be the rear housing of the electronic device or the frame housing of the electronic device, and this disclosure does not limit it in this way.

[0074] Since the first stacked structure 11 of the device housing 1 includes a light-emitting layer 111, and the second stacked structure 12 of the device housing 1 includes a pressure-sensing layer 121, the light-emitting body 1111 of the light-emitting layer 111 is electrically connected to the pressure-sensing layer 121 to adjust the brightness parameters of the light-emitting body 1111 according to the sensing data of the pressure-sensing layer 121. Because the first stacked structure 11 and the second stacked structure 12 are stacked in the thickness direction of the electronic device, the pressure-sensing layer 121 and the light-emitting layer 111 can realize pressure sensing, light emission, and correlation functions through the stacked structure, which helps to simplify the structure of the device housing 1 and improve the thinness, interactive experience, and intelligence of the device housing 1 and the electronic device.

[0075] This disclosure further provides a device control method applied to the device housing 1 or the electronic device described above. Figure 7 This is a flowchart of a device control method according to an exemplary embodiment of this disclosure, such as... Figure 7 As shown, the equipment control method can be implemented through the following steps:

[0076] In step S701, sensing data from the pressure sensing layer 121 is acquired. This sensing data includes at least one of the following: pressure magnitude, number of effective presses, and pressure extension direction.

[0077] In step S702, the brightness parameters of the light-emitting body 1111 are adjusted according to the sensing data of the pressure sensing layer 121.

[0078] The above control scheme adjusts the brightness parameters of the light-emitting subject 1111 based on at least one of the pressure magnitude, effective number of presses, and pressure extension direction obtained from the pressure sensing layer 121, so that the brightness parameters of the light-emitting subject 1111 at the preset position reach the expected level. Multiple light-emitting subjects 1111 cooperate to achieve the desired overall display effect. For example, by controlling the opening and closing of each light-emitting subject 1111, different patterns such as starry skies, constellations, company logos, letters, numbers, and emoticons can be displayed in a designated area of ​​the device housing 1. The device housing 1 can display in zones or in combination of zones, such as vertical zones, horizontal zones, diagonal zones, or stepped zones.

[0079] It should be noted that the above-mentioned effective number of presses can refer to the presses whose pressure meets the preset conditions, so as to ensure that the effective presses are the presses acting on the device housing 1 and are used for the control presses of the light-emitting body 1111.

[0080] In some embodiments, adjusting the brightness parameters of the light-emitting subject 1111 based on the sensing data of the pressure sensing layer 121 may include: when the pressure applied to the pressure sensing layer 121 is greater than a first value and the number of presses is equal to a second value, adjusting the brightness of at least a portion of the light-emitting subjects 1111 to be greater than zero, so as to control at least a portion of the light-emitting subjects 1111 to light up through an effective number of presses, thereby obtaining the expected overall display effect.

[0081] The second value mentioned above can be 1, 2, etc., and this disclosure does not limit it. For example, when the second value is 1, the preset light-emitting body 1111 can be lit up by a single press. For example, after the preset light-emitting body 1111 is lit up, it can display different patterns such as starry sky, constellations, company logos, letters, numbers, and emoticons.

[0082] In some embodiments, adjusting the brightness parameter of the light-emitting subject 1111 based on the sensing data of the pressure sensing layer 121 may include: when the number of effective presses applied to the pressure sensing layer 121 is equal to a fourth value, adjusting the brightness of each light-emitting subject 1111 to zero, so as to control each light-emitting subject 1111 to turn off by the number of effective presses, thereby achieving the display effect that the device housing 1 does not emit light.

[0083] The fourth value mentioned above can be 1, 2, etc., and this disclosure does not limit it. For example, when the fourth value is 2, the preset light-emitting body 1111 can be turned off by pressing twice.

[0084] In some embodiments, adjusting the brightness parameters of the light-emitting subject 1111 based on the sensing data of the pressure-sensing layer 121 may include: increasing the brightness of at least a portion of the light-emitting subject 1111 when the angle between the pressure extension direction acting on the pressure-sensing layer 121 and a first direction parallel to the length direction of the device housing 1 is less than a first angle; and decreasing the brightness of at least a portion of the light-emitting subject 1111 when the angle between the pressure extension direction acting on the pressure-sensing layer 121 and a second direction opposite to the first direction is less than a second angle. The brightness of the already lit light-emitting subject 1111 can be adjusted through the above control scheme. The first and second angles can accommodate angle deviations during operation; the first and second angles can be 5°, 10°, etc., and this disclosure does not limit this. Figure 1 A dashed arrowhead can represent the first direction, while a dotted arrowhead can represent the second direction.

[0085] In some embodiments, adjusting the brightness parameters of the light-emitting body 1111 based on the sensing data of the pressure-sensing layer 121 may include: when the angle between the pressure extension direction acting on the pressure-sensing layer 121 and a third direction parallel to the width direction of the device housing 1 is less than a third angle, changing the brightness parameters of at least a portion of the light-emitting body 1111 to change the display effect of the light-emitting layer 111. The brightness parameters of the light-emitting body 1111 can be adjusted through the above control scheme to obtain a pattern formed by the light-emitting body 1111 in a lit state. The aforementioned third angle can accommodate angle deviations during operation; the third angle can be 5°, 10°, etc., and this disclosure does not limit this. Figure 1 The double-dotted arrow represents a third direction. This third direction can be towards the left or right side of the device housing 1. When the third direction is towards the left side of the device housing 1, the angle between the operating pressure extension direction and the third direction is less than a third angle, switching to the previous pattern in the pattern list. When the third direction is towards the right side of the device housing 1, the angle between the operating pressure extension direction and the third direction is less than a third angle, switching to the next pattern in the pattern list.

[0086] This disclosure further provides a device control apparatus for use with any of the device housings 1 in the first aspect, or the aforementioned electronic devices.

[0091] In some embodiments, the processing unit may include a third control subunit and a fourth control subunit. The third control subunit is configured to increase the brightness of at least a portion of the light-emitting elements 1111 when the angle between the pressure extension direction of the pressure sensing layer 121 and a first direction parallel to the length direction of the device housing 1 is less than a first angle. The fourth control subunit is configured to decrease the brightness of at least a portion of the light-emitting elements 1111 when the angle between the pressure extension direction of the pressure sensing layer 121 and a second direction opposite to the first direction is less than a second angle.

[0092] In some embodiments, the processing unit may include a fifth control subunit, which is configured to change the brightness parameter of at least a portion of the light-emitting body 1111 when the angle between the pressure extension direction of the pressure sensing layer 121 and a third direction parallel to the width direction of the device housing 1 is less than a third angle, so as to change the display effect of the light-emitting layer 111.
