Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the field of communication technology, specifically relating to a decorative component and an electronic device. Background Technology

[0002] With technological advancements, electronic devices (such as mobile phones and tablets) have developed significantly. As powerful tools, electronic devices have greatly facilitated users' lives and work.

[0003] Electronic devices often incorporate decorative elements on their housings to conceal functional modules located within the housing. For example, a decorative element might conceal a camera module, thus preventing the risk of the camera module components being exposed. In related technologies, the decorative element typically includes a cover and a lens. The cover has an opening, and the lens covers the opening to achieve a seal. The functional module is positioned opposite the lens; light emitted from the functional module passes through the lens and exits into the electronic device, or external light passes through the lens and enters the functional module.

[0004] However, the structure of decorative parts in related technologies is relatively simple, resulting in a monotonous appearance and visual effect of electronic devices, which in turn leads to poor appearance performance of electronic devices. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this application is to provide a decorative component and an electronic device that can solve the technical problem of poor appearance performance of electronic devices.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this application is implemented as follows: In a first aspect, this application discloses a decorative component applied to an electronic device, the decorative component comprising: The decorative component body has a groove, and the bottom of the groove has a first through hole and a second through hole spaced apart. The first through hole is used to be opposite to the functional module of the electronic device. The inner surface of the groove is constructed with a decorative structure, which surrounds the first through hole and the second through hole. A transparent lens, wherein the transparent lens is sealed to the groove opening, and the transparent lens and the groove form a cavity; A light effect module is disposed on the side of the decorative part body away from the transparent lens. The light emitting surface of the light effect module is opposite to the second through hole. The light emitted by the light effect module enters the cavity through the second through hole.

[0007] Secondly, this application discloses an electronic device, including a housing, a functional module, and the aforementioned decorative component; the functional module is disposed within the housing, the housing has a communicating opening, the decorative component body is disposed within the housing, the communicating opening is disposed opposite to the first through hole, and the functional module is disposed opposite to the first through hole.

[0008] In this embodiment, the decorative component body has a groove, the inner surface of which is constructed with a decorative structure, and a transparent lens is sealed to the groove opening. In this design, the groove contains a decorative structure, which the user can directly see through the transparent lens, thus enhancing the aesthetic appeal of the decorative component and consequently improving the overall appearance of the electronic device. Furthermore, in well-lit environments, ambient light shines through the transparent lens onto the decorative structure, illuminating it and creating a floating effect. The decorative structure reflects the transparent lens, achieving a floating appearance. Additionally, the decorative component in this application includes a light effect module. Light emitted from the light effect module enters the cavity through a second through-hole, creating a surrounding light effect around the decorative structure. This highlights the decorative structure, integrating it with the light effect and breaking away from the monotony of a single structure, resulting in a richer visual combination. Therefore, the decorative component disclosed in this application can create a variety of aesthetic effects, thereby improving the overall appearance of the electronic device.

Detailed Implementation

[0011] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this application. 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.

[0012] 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 terms can be used interchangeably 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.

[0013] The decorative components and electronic devices provided in this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, through specific embodiments and application scenarios.

[0014] Please refer to Figures 1 to 18 This application discloses a decorative component 100, which is applied to an electronic device. The decorative component 100 is disposed on the housing 200 of the electronic device, thereby enabling it to cover and decorate functional modules inside the electronic device, such as a camera module, a fingerprint recognition module, and an ambient light detection module 310. The disclosed decorative component 100 includes a decorative body 110, a transparent lens 120, and a light effect module 130.

[0015] The decorative component body 110 is the basic component of the decorative assembly 100, and it is used to connect to the housing 200 of the electronic device. The decorative component body 110 can be bonded to the housing 200 of the electronic device via a first adhesive portion 171, which can be made of adhesive, double-sided tape, or similar materials. The first adhesive portion 171 not only bonds the decorative component body 110 to the housing 200 but also provides a seal, improving the sealing performance of the electronic device. Of course, the decorative component body 110 is not limited to bonding to the housing 200; it can also be fixed using rivets, screws, or other fasteners. This document does not limit the specific method of fixing the decorative component body 110 to the housing 200.

[0016] Specifically, the decorative body 110 has a groove 1101, and a first through hole 1102 and a second through hole 1103 are spaced apart on the bottom of the groove 1101, penetrating the bottom of the groove 1101. Since the first through hole 1102 and the second through hole 1103 are located on the bottom of the groove 1101, they are both opposite to the opening of the groove 1101. The first through hole 1102 is used to face the functional module of the electronic device. In this case, the part of the functional module that needs to be exposed is exposed through the first through hole 1102. For example, if the functional module is a camera module, the lens of the camera module faces the first through hole 1102. External light enters the lens of the camera module through the first through hole 1102. As another example, if the functional module is an ambient light detection module 310, the light sensor of the ring light detection module is opposite to the first through hole 1102.

[0017] The inner surface of the groove 1101 in this application is constructed with a decorative structure 1104, which surrounds the first through hole 1102 and the second through hole 1103. The decorative structure 1104 is used to decorate the decorative body 110; therefore, it needs to be located on the outer surface of the decorative body 110, which refers to the surface visible to the user. This can be understood as the groove 1101 facing away from the housing 200. Since the groove 1101 is located on the outer surface of the decorative body 110, and the groove faces the user, the decorative structure 1104 on the inner surface of the groove 1101 is visible to the user. Optionally, the decorative structure 1104 can be located on the bottom of the groove 1101. The area on the bottom where the decorative structure 1104 is located needs to avoid the area where the first through hole 1102 and the second through hole 1103 are located, to avoid obstructing the first through hole 1102 and the second through hole 1103. The decorative structure 1104 can also be disposed on the inner wall of the groove 1101. Of course, the inner wall and bottom of the groove 1101 can both be constructed with the decorative structure 1104. Optionally, the decorative structure 1104 can be a colored flat surface, a textured surface with a textured structure, or a personalized logo, etc. This application does not limit the specific shape and construction of the decorative structure 1104.

[0018] The transparent lens 120 is sealed to the groove opening of the recess 1101, forming a cavity 101. The first through hole 1102 and the second through hole 1103 are positioned opposite to the transparent lens 120. The transparent lens 120 and the recess 1101 can be bonded together by the second adhesive part 172 to achieve a sealed connection between the transparent lens 120 and the decorative body 110. The second adhesive part 172 can be located at the edge of the groove opening of the recess 1101 to prevent intrusion into the groove 1101 and affecting the appearance. Optionally, the second adhesive part 172 can be an adhesive material such as glue or double-sided tape. In this application, the transparent lens 120 covers the groove opening of the recess 1101, thereby preventing dust from entering the recess 1101. At the same time, since the transparent lens 120 is a fully transparent structure, the user can see the internal structure of the recess 1101 through the transparent lens 120. The transparent lens 120 can form a cavity 101 with the groove 1101. The cavity 101 has a certain depth, which helps to achieve the effect of the transparent lens 120 levitation.

[0019] The light effect module 130 is located on the side of the decorative component body 110 opposite to the transparent lens 120. This can be understood as the light effect module 130 being located on the side of the decorative component body 110 opposite to the outer surface; therefore, the light effect module 130 is located on the non-outer surface side of the decorative component body 110. The light-emitting surface of the light effect module 130 is positioned opposite to the second through-hole 1103. The light emitted by the light effect module 130 enters the cavity 101 through the second through-hole 1103. At this time, the light emitted by the light effect module 130, after entering the cavity 101 through the second through-hole 1103, can illuminate at least a portion of the cavity 101.

[0020] In the embodiments disclosed in this application, a decorative structure 1104 is constructed inside the groove 1101, and the user can directly see the decorative structure 1104 through the transparent lens 120, which is conducive to improving the appearance of the decorative component 100, realizing a rich appearance structure, and thus improving the appearance performance of the electronic device.

[0021] Furthermore, the groove 1101 and the transparent lens 120 enclose an independent cavity 101, within which the decorative structure 1104 is located. In a well-lit environment, ambient light shines through the transparent lens 120 onto the decorative structure 1104. This light is refracted or diffused between the decorative structure 1104, the inner surface of the groove 1101, and the transparent lens 120, creating a three-dimensional texture with varying light and shadow. This visually creates a floating effect on the transparent lens 120, enhancing the visual depth of the decorative component 100 and facilitating its three-dimensional floating effect. This, in turn, contributes to the personalized appearance of electronic devices.

[0022] Furthermore, the transparent texture of the transparent lens 120 contrasts with the shape and texture of the decorative structure 1104, and the transmission of light between the transparent medium and the decorative structure 1104 further amplifies the visual difference between the two materials, making the light and shadow effects of the decorative structure 1104 itself and the light effect more prominent. This allows the appearance of electronic devices to present a clear and high-end texture under different lighting conditions, thereby improving visual recognition.

[0023] In addition, the decorative component 100 in this application also includes a light effect module 130. The light emitted by the light effect module 130 enters the cavity 101 through the second through hole 1103 and forms a light surround effect around the decorative structure 1104, making the decorative structure 1104 stand out with the light and integrating the decorative structure 1104 with the light effect, thereby breaking the visual blandness of a single structure and further forming a rich visual combination effect.

[0024] In addition, the decorative structure 1104 can form a light and shadow linkage effect with the changes in light of the light effect module 130. For example, the light changes of the light effect module 130, such as constant light, breathing, and gradient, give the static decorative structure 1104 a dynamic visual performance, so that the appearance of the electronic device is both decorative and technological, which can further improve the appearance performance of the electronic device.

[0025] In this application, the decorative structure 1104 provides a physical modeling carrier for light. Its own structural features, such as texture, relief, hollowing, concavity and convexity, and reflective surface, will refract, reflect, diffuse, or block the light entering the light effect module 130 through the second through hole 1103. Therefore, highlight areas and shadow areas are formed on the decorative structure 1104, creating a light and shadow contrast between the originally planar or three-dimensional decorative structure 1104. This makes the details of the decorative structure 1104 clearer and the outline more three-dimensional, thereby weakening the visual blandness of a single decorative structure 1104 without the support of light. For example, if the decorative structure 1104 is textured, light can make the direction and density of the texture intuitively presented through light and shadow; if it is relief-shaped, light can enhance the three-dimensional depth of the relief, fully activating the aesthetic appeal of the static decorative structure 1104, thereby achieving the appearance effect of "light serving form, and form becoming more colorful because of light", thus forming a unique visual memory point and greatly improving the appearance recognition and technological feel of electronic devices.

[0026] Furthermore, in the embodiments disclosed in this application, the transparent lens 120 is sealed to the groove of the groove 1101, so that the cavity 101 forms an independent unit. This avoids the risk of external dust and moisture entering and contaminating the decorative structure 1104, causing the appearance to age and become mottled, thereby ensuring the long-term stability of the light effect and maintaining the lasting beauty of the electronic device.

[0027] Furthermore, the first through-hole 1102 corresponds to the functional module, the second through-hole 1103 is adapted to the light effect module 130, and the decorative structure 1104 is arranged around the two through-holes to achieve an integrated layout of functional holes and decorative elements, avoiding the visual disjointedness caused by the functional holes being exposed separately. The transparent lens 120 serves as the outer layer of protection for the decorative area, while not obstructing the use of the functional module corresponding to the first through-hole 1102, such as camera, sensor, and fingerprint recognition functions. Therefore, the decorative component 100 disclosed in this application can achieve a harmonious effect of "no compromise on function and full coverage of decoration", making the appearance layout of electronic devices simpler and more harmonious, thereby enhancing the overall aesthetics of electronic devices.

[0028] In the embodiments disclosed in this application, the combined and coordinated design of the transparent lens 120, the groove 1101, the decorative structure 1104 and the light effect module 130 can form a variety of different and rich visual combination effects, thereby making the appearance structure and visual effects of electronic devices more diverse and further improving the appearance performance of electronic devices.

[0029] In one embodiment, the second through-hole 1103 is a strip-shaped hole. The light effect module 130 includes multiple light-emitting elements 131, all of which are disposed opposite to the second through-hole 1103 and are spaced apart along the extension direction of the second through-hole 1103. In this embodiment, the light-emitting surface of the light-emitting element 131 is the light-emitting surface of the light effect module 130. Here, the extension direction of the second through-hole 1103 refers to the length direction of the second through-hole 1103. The extension direction of the second through-hole 1103 can be referred to as the first direction, as shown in the figure. Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 The direction is indicated by Y in the diagram. In this design, multiple light-emitting elements 131 form a light strip extending along the first direction, with the light strip positioned opposite to the second through-hole 1103. At this time, the light effect module 130 and the like can achieve a gradually breathing light strip, thus creating a more dynamic atmosphere and ensuring clear visibility even from a distance, thereby further enhancing the appearance of the electronic device.

[0030] Optionally, the light-emitting element 131 can be an LED (Light Emitting Diode) lamp, a high-pressure sodium lamp, a metal halide lamp, etc. Of course, the light-emitting element 131 can also be other structures, which are not limited in this article.

[0031] In another embodiment, the light effect module 130 may include a light-emitting element 131 and a light guide 132. The light guide 132 is a light transmission component capable of conducting light. The light guide 132 may be made of transparent glass, transparent resin, or other materials; however, it may also be made of other transparent materials, which are not limited herein. The light guide 132 includes a light-emitting part 1321 and a plurality of light-incident parts 1322. The plurality of light-incident parts 1322 are connected to the same side of the light-emitting part 1321 and are arranged at intervals along the extension direction of the second through hole 1103. Each light-incident part 1322 may be disposed opposite to at least one light-emitting element 131, and at least a portion of the light-emitting part 1321 is disposed opposite to the second through hole 1103. The light-emitting part 1321 is provided with the aforementioned light-emitting surface.

[0032] In the specific operation, the light emitted by the light-emitting element 131 enters the light-emitting part 1321 through its corresponding light-incident part 1322, and then is transmitted to the area corresponding to the light-emitting part 1321. After passing through the light-emitting part 1321, it is directed to the area corresponding to the second through hole 1103. At this time, the light emitted by each light-emitting element 131 enters the corresponding light-incident part 1322, and the light-incident part 1322 transmits the light to the area corresponding to its light-emitting part 1321, so as to illuminate the area opposite to the second through hole 1103. When multiple light-emitting elements 131 are lit sequentially, a breathing light effect can be achieved. When all multiple light-emitting elements 131 are lit, the entire area of ​​the second through hole 1103 can be illuminated.

[0033] Compared to the design where the light-emitting element 131 and the second through-hole 1103 are directly opposite each other, this solution provides a more uniform and continuous breathing light effect without localized bright-dark discontinuities. In the design where the light-emitting element 131 is directly opposite the second through-hole 1103, the second through-hole 1103 exhibits "bright spots + dark areas" in its extension direction due to the spaced-out arrangement of the light-emitting element 131, resulting in abrupt transitions between light and dark during the breathing effect. However, after being homogenized by the light guide 132, the multi-point incident light is fused and transmitted, resulting in consistent brightness throughout the breathing effect of the light effect module 130. The transitions between light and dark and the color gradient are synchronized and smooth, eliminating any segmented visual discontinuities in the light effect module 130 and thus improving its optical performance.

[0034] Furthermore, in the design where the light-emitting element 131 directly faces the second through-hole 1103, the light-emitting element 131 directly emits light into the second through-hole 1103, which easily produces localized strong light and glare, and the flickering effect is quite noticeable during the breathing transition. In contrast, the light guide 132 in this application diffuses and homogenizes the light, resulting in a gentle and soft light emission, while also reducing the flickering effect of alternating bright and dark areas during the breathing transition, thereby further enhancing the visual experience of the light effect module 130. At the same time, the direct opposition between the light-emitting element 131 and the second through-hole 1103 easily leads to problems such as the light-emitting element 131 being exposed and uneven light and shadow, affecting the product's appearance. The light guide 132, however, hides the light-emitting element 131, with only the second through-hole 1103 emitting a soft breathing light, resulting in a simpler and neater product appearance without any abrupt visual flaws.

[0035] Furthermore, the direct light emission from the light-emitting element 131 is prone to diffuse leakage to the surrounding area, resulting in dispersed light effect and weak ambiance. In contrast, the light guide 132 directs the breathing light to the second through-hole 1103, highly focusing the light effect and highlighting the dynamic gradation of the strip-shaped breathing light, significantly improving long-distance visibility and decorative ambiance. Additionally, the direct placement of the light-emitting element 131 at the second through-hole 1103 risks brightness attenuation at both ends of the second through-hole 1103 and asynchronous breathing gradation due to the lack of light guidance. However, the solution with the light guide 132 compensates for light attenuation, ensuring that the brightness and gradation frequency of the entire strip-shaped breathing light are completely consistent, without end deviations.

[0036] Therefore, the light guide 132 in this application can not only achieve the effect of full-segment breathing light emission, but also improve the light performance of the light effect module 130 and the appearance performance of the electronic device.

[0037] Furthermore, the light effect module 130 may also include a light-blocking part 135, which is alternately distributed with multiple light-incident parts 1322 along the extension direction of the second through hole 1103. The light-blocking part 135 can block light, therefore the light-blocking part 135 needs to be made of an opaque material.

[0038] In this scheme, the light-blocking part 135 separates two adjacent light-incident parts 1322 to block optical path crosstalk between adjacent light-incident parts 1322, and avoids the light from adjacent light-incident parts 1322 from crossing within the light-emitting part 1321. This allows the breathing brightness and color signals of each light-emitting element 131 to be transmitted independently, so that the segmented gradation and global synchronization of the light effect module 130 are more accurate, and there is no problem of light effect blurring and color mixing caused by crosstalk, thereby further improving the optical performance of the light effect module 130.

[0039] Furthermore, the light-blocking part 135 can also block light from being diffusely reflected laterally from the light-incident part 1322. This, combined with the forward light-emitting design of the light guide part 132, further restricts the light transmission towards the second through hole 1103, thereby enhancing the directionality of light emission, significantly reducing peripheral side light leakage, making the edges of the strip breathing light clearer, the outline more regular, and the visual focus stronger. At the same time, the light-blocking part 135 can reflect the dissipated light back to the light-incident part 1322 and guide it to the second through hole 1103, effectively improving the light utilization rate of a single light-emitting element 131, avoiding brightness differences between adjacent light-incident parts 1322 caused by light dissipation, thus making the brightness of the entire strip breathing light more uniform and the transition between light and dark sections smoother.

[0040] Furthermore, the blocking function of the light-blocking part 135 allows the light-exposing part 1321 to achieve a refined breathing effect of "segmented bright and dark, zoned gradual change". Compared with the single full-area gradual change without light blocking, the light effect expression is richer and adapts to diverse product interaction needs.

[0041] In the above scheme, there are multiple light-blocking parts 135, which can be embedded between two adjacent light-incident parts 1322. The light-blocking parts 135 and the light-guiding parts 132 can form an integral component for assembly, thereby simplifying the number of parts in the light effect module 130 and improving assembly efficiency.

[0042] In another optional embodiment, the light-blocking portion 135 may include a connecting base 1351 and a plurality of light-blocking protrusions 1352. The light-blocking protrusions 1352 may be located on the same side of the connecting base 1351 and are arranged at intervals along the extending direction of the second through hole 1103. A light-blocking protrusion 1352 may be embedded between two adjacent light-incident portions 1322. This can be understood as both the light-blocking portion 135 and the light-guiding portion 132 being configured as comb-tooth structures, with the two comb-tooth structures engaging in corresponding insertion.

[0043] Compared to the previous method of assembling individual light-blocking parts 135 into their corresponding gaps, this method uses a connecting base 1351 as the carrier for the light-blocking parts 135. Multiple light-blocking protrusions 1352 are integrated on the same side of the connecting base 1351 at preset intervals. All the light-blocking protrusions 1352 can be simultaneously installed into their corresponding gaps, thus eliminating multiple alignment and fixing steps, significantly simplifying the assembly process and improving efficiency. In addition, the light-blocking parts 135 in this application are also easier to integrally injection mold with the light guide parts 132.

[0044] In one embodiment, the light-emitting element 131 and the light-receiving portion 1322 are arranged along the axial direction of the second through hole 1103. The axial direction of the first through hole 1102 can be referred to as the second direction. The first direction intersects the second direction. The second direction is as follows... Figures 4 to 6As shown by the Z-axis. The second direction here can be understood as the depth direction of the second through-hole 1103. The light-blocking protrusion 1352 may have a first surface 13521 and a second surface 13522 disposed opposite to each other along the extending direction of the second through-hole 1103. For example... Figure 9 As shown, the distance between the first surface 13521 and the second surface 13522 gradually increases along the direction from the light-emitting element 131 to the light-incident part 1322.

[0045] In this design, the first surface 13521 and the second surface 13522 of the light-blocking protrusion 1352 are inclined surfaces that gradually expand toward the light-incident part 1322, rather than vertical straight surfaces. When the light-emitting element 131 emits light toward the light-incident part 1322 along the second direction, the inclined surfaces can reflect the side-projected light that would normally escape into the gap of the light-incident part 1322 back into the light-incident part 1322, reducing the light loss at the light-incident part 1322, allowing more light to enter the light-emitting part 1321 along the light-guiding direction, improving the overall light efficiency utilization rate, and making the brightness of the light efficiency module 130 more uniform and stable.

[0046] Furthermore, the light-emitting element 131 and the light-incident part 1322 are arranged along the second direction. The light from the light-emitting element 131 is incident on the light-incident part 1322 along the axial direction of the second through hole 1103. The design of the gradually expanding slope is highly compatible with the light guide path in the axial direction. Compared with the straight surface, it fits the emission and propagation angle of the light more closely. It optimizes the light direction from the incident source, making the light guide link smoother. At the same time, it avoids the blocking and loss of axial incident light from the vertical straight surface, ensuring the consistency of the light effect of the light effect module 130 throughout the entire length.

[0047] The specific tilt direction of the first surface 13521 and the second surface 13522 can be flexibly set according to the actual working conditions, and this article does not impose any restrictions.

[0048] In another embodiment, the plurality of light-receiving portions 1322 respectively include a first edge light-receiving portion 1322a, a second edge light-receiving portion 1322b, and at least one intermediate light-receiving portion 1322c, wherein the at least one intermediate light-receiving portion 1322c is located between the first edge light-receiving portion 1322a and the second edge light-receiving portion 1322b; in the extending direction along the second through hole 1103, the dimensions of the first edge light-receiving portion 1322a and the second edge light-receiving portion 1322b are larger than the dimensions of the intermediate light-receiving portion 1322c. The dimensions of the light-receiving portion 1322 in the extending direction along the second through hole 1103 can be its width dimension.

[0049] In this design, the light from the edge light-incident portion 1322 tends to scatter and attenuate towards both ends of the second through-hole 1103, resulting in lower brightness at both ends of the second through-hole 1103. Therefore, designing the dimensions of the first edge light-incident portion 1322a and the second edge light-incident portion 1322b along the extension direction of the second through-hole 1103 to be larger than that of the middle light-incident portion 1322c can increase the amount of light entering the edge light-incident portion 1322, compensate for the light loss at both ends of the second through-hole 1103, and ensure that the brightness of the light effect module 130 is completely uniform from the middle to both ends, with a gradual transition without any brightness deviation, thereby further improving the optical performance of the light effect module 130.

[0050] Furthermore, the light-incident portion 1322 has a first end portion 13221 and a second end portion 13222 disposed opposite to each other. The arrangement direction of the first end portion 13221 and the second end portion 13222 intersects both the extension direction of the second through hole 1103 and the axial direction of the second through hole 1103. This arrangement direction of the first end portion 13221 and the second end portion 13222 can be referred to as a third direction, which is the length direction of the light-incident portion 1322. The third direction is as follows: Figures 4 to 6 As shown on the X-axis. At this time, the first direction, the second direction, and the third direction can be perpendicular to each other. The first end 13221 of the light-incident section 1322 is connected to the light-exit section 1321; in the arrangement direction along the first end 13221 and the second end 13222, the dimensions of the first edge light-incident section 1322a and the second edge light-incident section 1322b are smaller than the dimensions of the middle light-incident section 1322c.

[0051] In this design, reducing the size of the edge light-incident portion 1322 along the third direction can constrain the lateral diffusion range of the edge light and shorten the light transmission path of the edge light-incident portion 1322, thereby further reducing the light loss at both ends of the second through-hole 1103 and improving the brightness at both ends of the second through-hole 1103. Alternatively, designing the size of the middle light-incident portion 1322c along the third direction can increase the light transmission path of the middle light-incident portion 1322c, thereby increasing the light loss in the middle region of the second through-hole 1103, making the luminous brightness of the second through-hole 1103 more uniform along its extension direction.

[0052] In the above scheme, the number of intermediate light-incident portions 1322c can be at least two, and the dimensions of the at least two intermediate light-incident portions 1322c are the same along the first direction and the third direction. Similarly, the dimensions of the first edge light-incident portion 1322a and the second edge light-incident portion 1322b are the same along the first direction and the third direction.

[0053] In another embodiment, a recessed structure 1322c1 may be formed on the side of the intermediate light-incident portion 1322c facing the light-emitting element 131. The recessed structure 1322c1 is located between the first end 13221 and the second end 13222 of the intermediate light-incident portion 1322c. In this solution, the recessed structure 1322c1 can interrupt part of the light transmission path of the intermediate light-incident portion 1322c, thereby further increasing the light loss in the middle region of the second through-hole 1103, so that the light emission brightness of the two ends and the middle region of the second through-hole 1103 is closer, thus making the light emission brightness of the second through-hole 1103 more uniform along its extension direction.

[0054] In one embodiment, the light-emitting part 1321 has a first side and a second side, which are located on adjacent sides of the light-emitting part 1321, respectively. The light-entry part 1322 is provided with the first side and the second side is provided opposite to the second through hole 1103.

[0055] In one alternative embodiment, the light-emitting portion 1321 includes a main body portion 13211 and a light-emitting protrusion 13212, which are stacked along the axial direction of the second through hole 1103. Along the axial direction of the second through hole 1103, the orthographic projection outline of the light-emitting protrusion 13212 lies within the orthographic projection outline of the main body portion 13211, and the area of ​​the orthographic projection outline of the light-emitting protrusion 13212 can be smaller than the area of ​​the orthographic projection outline of the main body portion 13211. The light-entry portion 1322 can be provided on the main body portion 13211, and at least a portion of the light-emitting protrusion 13212 can be located within the second through hole 1103. The main body portion 13211 has the aforementioned first side surface and second side surface. The aforementioned light-emitting surface is provided on the light-emitting protrusion 13212.

[0056] In this design, the light-emitting protrusion 13212 is stacked along the axial direction of the second through hole 1103 and extends at least partially into the second through hole 1103. The light-emitting protrusion 13212 becomes the dedicated light-emitting end for light to be emitted into the second through hole 1103. With the design of the light-emitting protrusion 13212 projected inward into the main body 13211, light is prevented from scattering from the main body 13211 to the periphery of the second through hole 1103. Instead, the light is concentrated and emitted from the light-emitting protrusion 13212 into the second through hole 1103, thereby ensuring that there is no diffuse light at the edge of the second through hole 1103 and that the light effect outline is regular.

[0057] In addition, the light from the light-incident section 1322 is first fully diffused and homogenized within the larger main body section 13211 to eliminate bright spots from single-point light entry, and then directed to the second through hole 1103 through the light-emitting protrusion 13212. This achieves a chain-based light guide optimization where "the main body section 13211 homogenizes the light and the light-emitting protrusion 13212 focuses the light out", making the light emitted by the light effect module 130 both soft and free of glaring bright spots, while also ensuring the uniformity of the light effect within the second through hole 1103, with a gradual breathing effect and no bright or dark breaks.

[0058] Furthermore, along the axial direction of the second through hole 1103, the orthogonal projection of the light-emitting protrusion 13212 is completely within the main body 13211. During assembly, the main body 13211 can serve as a positioning reference surface for close fitting, allowing the light-emitting protrusion 13212 to be precisely aligned and extend into the second through hole 1103 without repeated adjustments, thereby improving the assembly efficiency of the decorative component 100. Simultaneously, the partial embedding of the light guide portion 132 into the second through hole 1103 also helps reduce the stacking thickness of the light guide portion 132 and the decorative component body 110, thus reducing the overall thickness of the decorative component 100.

[0059] In the above scheme, the light-emitting protrusion 13212 and the main body 13211 can be separate structures, which are then assembled by alignment. Alternatively, the light-emitting protrusion 13212 and the main body 13211 can be integrally formed. Meanwhile, the light-emitting part 1321 and the light-entry part 1322 can be separate structures, which are then assembled. Alternatively, the light-emitting part 1321 and the light-entry part 1322 can be integrally formed.

[0060] In one embodiment, the light-emitting element 131 and the light guide 132 can be mounted on the decorative element body 110.

[0061] In another optional embodiment, the light effect module 130 may further include a mounting bracket 133, with the transparent lens 120, the decorative body 110 and the mounting bracket 133 stacked in sequence, and the light guide 132 and the light emitting element 131 both disposed on the side of the mounting bracket 133 away from the decorative body 110.

[0062] In this design, the light-emitting element 131 and the light guide 132 are mounted on the mounting bracket 133, avoiding damage caused by direct exposure. This also reduces the direct impact of heat from the light-emitting element 131 on the decorative element body 110, preventing the decorative element body 110 from deforming or aging due to high temperatures. Furthermore, the mounting bracket 133 serves as the mounting base for other components of the light effect module 130, forming a modular design and reducing assembly difficulty. In addition, the light-emitting element 131 and the light guide 132 of the light effect module 130 are fixed to the decorative element body 110 via the mounting bracket 133, avoiding the risk of excessive thickness of the decorative element body 110 that would otherwise require increasing the thickness of the light-emitting element 131 and the light guide 132 if they were fixed separately.

[0063] Furthermore, the light effect module 130 may also include a circuit board 134, which may be disposed on the side of the mounting bracket 133 opposite to the decorative part body 110. The circuit board 134 may be located between the mounting bracket 133 and the light guide part 132, and the light-emitting element 131 may be disposed on the circuit board 134. In this solution, the integrated circuit board 134 is placed on the light effect module 130, thereby simplifying the structure of the light effect module 130.

[0064] In one embodiment, the aforementioned functional module can be electrically connected to the circuit board 134. In this case, the circuit board 134 of the light effect module 130 can also be electrically connected to the functional module, thereby further optimizing the layout of the electronic device.

[0065] For example, there can be multiple functional modules, namely a camera module (not shown in the figure) and an ambient light detection module 310. The camera module is positioned opposite to its corresponding first through hole 1102, and the light sensor of the ambient light detection module 310 is positioned opposite to its corresponding first through hole 1102. The light sensor of the ambient light detection module 310 can be disposed on the circuit board 134 of the light effect module 130.

[0066] Furthermore, when the light effect module 130 includes a light-blocking part 135, the circuit board 134 includes a first region and a second region arranged side by side. The light-emitting element 131 is disposed in the first region, which can be understood as multiple light-incident parts 1322 being disposed opposite to the first region. The connecting base 1351 of the aforementioned light-blocking part 135 is disposed opposite to the second region. The light sensor of the ambient light detection module 310 can be disposed on the second region of the circuit board 134. In this case, the light sensor of the ambient light detection module 310 is disposed on the second region, which helps to avoid the influence of the light emitted by the light-emitting element 131 on the light sensor.

[0067] In another alternative, a light-shielding barrier 1331 can be provided on the side of the mounting bracket 133 facing away from the decorative element body 110, with the light-shielding barrier 1331 located between the light-emitting element 131 and the light sensor. This solution can further prevent the light emitted by the light-emitting element 131 from affecting the light sensor.

[0068] Furthermore, the light effect module 130 may also include a light-shielding film 136, which is disposed between the light-blocking part 135 and the circuit board 134. In this case, the light-shielding film 136 is sandwiched between the light-blocking part 135 and the circuit board 134, thereby preventing light from entering between the light-blocking part 135 and the circuit board 134, and further preventing the influence on the light sensor.

[0069] In one embodiment, the light effect module 130 may further include a reflective film 137. The reflective film 137 is disposed on the side of the light guide portion 132 facing away from the light-emitting element 131, and the reflective film 137 has a reflective surface on the side facing the light guide portion 132. In this case, the light from the side of the light guide portion 132 facing away from the light-emitting element 131 can be reflected back into the light guide portion 132 by the reflective film 137, thereby further improving the light utilization efficiency and enhancing the luminous brightness of the light effect module 130.

[0070] In the above scheme, the light emitted from the light effect module 130 into the cavity 101 and the light reflected by the decorative structure 1104 can easily enter the first through hole 1102, thus easily affecting the performance of the functional module. For example, when the light emitted from the light effect module 130 into the cavity 101 and the light reflected by the decorative structure 1104 enter the first through hole 1102, it will enter the camera module, causing the camera module to be overexposed and affecting the shooting performance of the camera module. Furthermore, it can also affect the detection accuracy of the light sensor.

[0071] Based on this, in an optional embodiment, the bottom of the groove 1101 may be provided with a protrusion 1105 protruding towards its opening. The protrusion 1105 is located within the cavity 101, and the decorative structure 1104 is arranged around the protrusion 1105. The protrusion 1105 is spaced apart from the second through hole 1103. The protrusion 1105 has a third through hole 1105a, and the first through hole 1102 is at least partially disposed opposite to the transparent lens 120 through the third through hole 1105a.

[0072] In this design, the protrusion 1105, which protrudes from the bottom of the groove towards the opening, extends into the cavity 101 and is spaced apart from the second through hole 1103, forming a physical light-blocking barrier. This directly blocks the diffuse reflection and refracted light from the light effect module 130 and the decorative structure 1104 from propagating towards the first through hole 1102. From a spatial layout perspective, this avoids the diffuse reflection and refracted light from the light effect module 130 and the decorative structure 1104 from entering the first through hole 1102, thereby avoiding the risk of the functional module being affected.

[0073] Furthermore, the third through hole 1105a may include a first sub-hole 1105a1 and a second sub-hole 1105a2. The two ends of the first sub-hole 1105a1 may be opposite to and connected to the second sub-hole 1105a2 and the first through hole 1102, respectively. Along the axial direction of the first through hole 1102, the orthographic projection area of ​​the first sub-hole 1105a1 is larger than the orthographic projection area of ​​the second sub-hole 1105a2, and the orthographic projections of both the first sub-hole 1105a1 and the second sub-hole 1105a2 are located within the orthographic projection of the first through hole 1102. In this case, the third through hole 1105a can be a stepped hole.

[0074] In this design, the third through hole 1105a is a stepped hole, and the diameter of the second sub-hole 1105a2 facing the transparent lens 120 is reduced, and its orthographic projection falls within the first through hole 1102. At this time, the second sub-hole 1105a2 is the entrance end of the optical path. The effective optical channel is precisely narrowed from the entrance section of the optical path, completely blocking the risk of diffuse reflection and refracted light from the light effect module 130 and the decorative structure 1104 entering the first through hole 1102 through the aperture gap of the third through hole 1105a. This further cuts off the diffuse reflection and refracted light from the light effect module 130 and the decorative structure 1104 from entering the first through hole 1102. Therefore, the design of the protrusion 1105 and the stepped hole achieves double reinforcement of anti-reflective light, further avoiding the risk of the functional module being affected.

[0075] In another alternative embodiment, the protrusion 1105 may include an annular side plate 11051 and a cover plate 11052, the annular side plate 11051 extending along the edge of the first through hole 1102. The cover plate 11052 may be located at the end of the annular side plate 11051 facing the transparent lens 120. The annular side plate 11051 may have a first sub-hole 1105a1, and the cover plate 11052 may have a second sub-hole 1105a2.

[0076] In this design, the annular side panel 11051 is a hollow enclosed structure. Compared with the solid protrusion 1105, it significantly reduces the material usage and volume ratio of the protrusion 1105 while achieving the same light blocking and light guiding effects. This avoids the protrusion 1105 occupying excessive space in the cavity 101, ensuring the normal layout of the decorative structure 1104 and the light effect module 130, and balancing functional realization with product lightweighting.

[0077] In an optional embodiment, the decorative component 100 may further include a first seal 140 and a second seal 150. The first seal 140 extends circumferentially along the third through-hole 1105a, and its circumferential arrangement is intended to achieve a circumferential seal on the third through-hole 1105a. The protrusion 1105 is sealed to the transparent lens 120 via the first seal 140. In this case, the protrusion 1105 and the first seal 140 divide the cavity 101 into a first space and a second space that are mutually isolated. Here, the first space can be understood as the aforementioned third through-hole 1105a, and the second space refers to the area of ​​the cavity 101 excluding the third through-hole 1105a. The first through-hole 1102 is opposite to and communicates with the first space. Since the protrusion 1105 surrounds the first through-hole 1102, both the second through-hole 1103 and the decorative structure 1104 are located in the area of ​​the second space. In this case, the first space is used to correspond to the functional module. The decorative structure 1104 and the second through hole 1103 of the decorative component 100 are both located in the area of ​​the second space, therefore the second space is a decorative space.

[0078] The second sealing element 150 extends circumferentially along the second through hole 1103, and the light effect module 130 and the decorative body 110 are sealed together by the second sealing element 150. At this time, the second sealing element 150, in cooperation with the light effect module 130, seals the second space, thus making the second space a completely sealed space.

[0079] In this solution, the space outside the decorative component 100 and the second space can be completely sealed by the first sealing element 140 and the second sealing element 150, thereby effectively isolating the area where the decorative structure 1104 is located from the outside world, ensuring that dust and moisture do not easily enter the second space, and ensuring that the fine decorations such as color and texture of the decorative structure 1104 can remain clean and bright for a long time, thus showcasing the exquisite design for a long time.

[0080] In the above scheme, the first sealing member 140 can be disposed between the cover plate 11052 of the protrusion 1105 and the transparent lens 120. The second sealing member 150 can be disposed on the side of the main body 13211 facing the decorative body 110, and is disposed around the light-emitting protrusion 13212.

[0081] Optionally, the first seal 140 and the second seal 150 can be made of materials such as foam and rubber. Of course, the first seal 140 and the second seal 150 can also be made of other materials, which are not limited in this article.

[0082] The protrusion 1105 described above can be integrally formed with the decorative body 110. Of course, the protrusion 1105 can also be separately provided from the decorative body 110 and then bonded together by an adhesive part. This article does not limit the specific connection form between the protrusion 1105 and the decorative body 110.

[0083] In an alternative embodiment, at least a portion of the light effect module 130 may be located within the third through-hole 1105a of the protrusion 1105. This solution can reduce the stacking thickness of the light effect module 130 and the decorative body 110, thereby achieving the development of thinner and lighter electronic devices.

[0084] For example, there are multiple first through holes 1102, and each first through hole 1102 is provided with a corresponding protrusion 1105. A portion of the light effect module 130 can be located within the third through hole 1105a of the protrusion 1105 corresponding to the ambient light detection module 310. A portion of the aforementioned mounting bracket 133, circuit board 134, light blocking part 135, and light guiding part 132 can be located within the third through hole 1105a of the protrusion 1105 corresponding to the ambient light detection module 310.

[0085] In one embodiment, the decorative body 110 can be an injection-molded structural component. The sprue 160 of the decorative body 110 can be located on the outer peripheral surface of the decorative body 110, away from the groove 1101, and the sprue 160 is inclined relative to the outer peripheral surface of the decorative body 110. Here, the surface of the decorative body 110 with the groove 1101 is its front side, and the surface of the decorative body away from the groove 1101 is its back side. Therefore, the sprue 160 of the decorative body 110 can be located at the junction of the outer peripheral surface and the back side of the decorative body 110. The aforementioned sprue 160 is the entrance for molten material to enter the mold cavity from the gating system 600 during injection molding. It is also the last channel for molten material to fill the cavity and is the connection point between the injection molded part and the sprue solidified material. Figure 17 Figure 18 As shown, during injection molding, the gating system 600 injects molten plastic into the mold cavity through the sprue 160. After cooling and molding, the sprue 160 will be connected to the decorative part body 110, and will need to be removed by cutting, grinding and other methods later.

[0086] In this design, the sprue 160 is located at the junction of the outer peripheral surface and the back surface of the groove 1101. Therefore, defects such as sprue residue and overflow after injection molding will not appear on the front surface of the decorative part body 110, thus ensuring the uniformity of the front appearance of the decorative part body 110. In addition, the sprue 160 is inclined to the outer peripheral surface, so that the molten material fills the cavity smoothly along the inclined direction, reducing air marks, shrinkage marks, and weld lines caused by the molten material impacting the cavity wall. At the same time, it reduces the internal pressure difference of the cavity, avoiding material shortage and deformation in thin-walled and irregularly shaped parts, thereby improving the dimensional accuracy and structural density of the decorative part body 110.

[0087] Furthermore, the decorative body 110 includes an integrally formed first decorative portion 111 and a second decorative portion 112. The first decorative portion 111 can be disposed around the second decorative portion 112, and the first decorative portion 111 and the second decorative portion 112 can surround each other to form a groove 1101. A first through hole 1102 and a second through hole 1103 can be formed on the second decorative portion 112. Here, the first decorative portion 111 can be understood as the outer ring of the decorative body 110, and the second decorative portion 112 can be understood as the inner ring of the decorative body 110. At this time, the first decorative portion 111 and the second decorative portion 112 are integrally injection molded. Since the first decorative portion 111 and the second decorative portion 112 are integrally injection molded, the sprue 160 of the decorative body 110 is located on the side of the outer peripheral surface of the first decorative portion 111 that faces away from the opening of the groove 1101.

[0088] In this design, the decorative part body 110 is integrally molded, thus requiring fewer parts and offering greater advantages in dust and water resistance.

[0089] In another optional embodiment, the decorative body 110 may include a first decorative portion 111 and a second decorative portion 112 that are separately disposed. The first decorative portion 111 is disposed around the second decorative portion 112, and the second decorative portion 112 has a groove 1101 and a first through hole 1102 and a second through hole 1103 communicating with the groove 1101. The second decorative portion 112 may be an injection molded structural part, and the sprue 160 of the second decorative portion 112 may be located on the side of the outer peripheral surface of the second decorative portion 112 away from the groove 1101, and the sprue 160 may be inclined relative to the outer peripheral surface of the second decorative portion 112.

[0090] In this design, the inner and outer rings of the decorative part body 110 are separated, which reduces the injection molding size, thereby facilitating better control of the injection molding shape and improving the appearance precision of the decorative part body 110. Furthermore, the separate molding of the decorative part body 110 results in superior cost control and overall weight control.

[0091] Of course, the first decorative part 111 can also be an injection molded structural part. Since the area that can be observed in the first decorative part 111 is much smaller than that in the second decorative part 112, the molding precision of the first decorative part 111 can be lower.

[0092] The decorative component body 110 in the above scheme can be made using nano-injection molding, and other processes can also be used, which are not limited here.

[0093] In one optional embodiment, a heat dissipation hole 102 may be provided on the side of the decorative component body 110. The heat dissipation hole 102 can be used to connect with the heat dissipation duct of the electronic device. In this solution, the heat dissipation hole 102 is integrated into the side of the decorative component body 110, eliminating the need to design a separate heat dissipation channel in the housing 200 of the electronic device. This expands the heat dissipation function while realizing the decorative function, simplifying the overall structural design of the electronic device. At the same time, the heat dissipation hole 102 is located on the side of the decorative component body 110, avoiding exposed core decorative areas such as the front, ensuring smooth airflow while avoiding the heat dissipation hole 102 from damaging the appearance integrity of the decorative component body 110, thus balancing practicality and aesthetics. In addition, the heat dissipation hole 102 serves as the docking structure between the decorative component body 110 and the heat dissipation duct of the electronic device, making the decorative component body 110 not only an appearance component but also a part of the heat dissipation system of the electronic device, improving the assembly fit and structural correlation between the decorative component body 110 and the entire electronic device.

[0094] In one embodiment, the exhaust or intake port of the cooling fan of the electronic device housing 200 is connected to the heat dissipation hole 102. Furthermore, to ensure the overall airtightness of the device, the exhaust or intake port of the cooling fan and the edge of the heat dissipation hole 102 can be sealed with adhesive.

[0095] To prevent dust from clogging the heat dissipation ducts and affecting the heat dissipation function, a dustproof screen can be installed on the heat dissipation hole 102.

[0096] The aforementioned heat dissipation hole 102 can be specifically opened on the first decorative part 111. In the scheme of the first decorative part 111 and the second decorative part 112 being set separately, the second decorative part 112 can be made of fireproof material, thereby taking into account both the appearance and safety requirements of the second decorative part 112, so that the design form of the heat dissipation hole 102 is not restricted.

[0102] In the embodiments disclosed in this application, a decorative structure 1104 is constructed inside the groove 1101, and the user can directly see the decorative structure 1104 through the transparent lens 120, which helps to improve the appearance of the decorative component 100 and thus improve the appearance performance of the electronic device. Furthermore, in a well-lit environment, ambient light can shine through the transparent lens 120 onto the decorative structure 1104, illuminating it. The decorative structure 1104 reflects the lens, creating a floating effect, thus achieving a floating appearance. Additionally, the decorative component 100 in this application also includes a light effect module 130. The light emitted by the light effect module 130 enters the cavity 101 through the second through-hole 1103, creating a light-surrounding effect around the decorative structure 1104. This makes the decorative structure 1104 stand out against the light, allowing it to blend seamlessly with the light effect, breaking the visual monotony of a single structure and creating a rich visual combination effect. Therefore, the decorative component 100 disclosed in this application can create a variety of appearance effects, thereby improving the appearance performance of the electronic device.

[0103] In the electronic device disclosed in this application, the transparent lens 120, the first decorative part 111, the second decorative part 112, and the housing 200 can be sealed using a precision dispensing process. Therefore, while achieving a high standard of IP68 / 69 waterproof and dustproof performance, the transparent window area of ​​the decorative component 100 is maximized, presenting a transparent, pure, and high-end visual experience. Thus, the electronic device disclosed in this application possesses both good waterproof and dustproof performance and good aesthetic performance.

[0104] The electronic device disclosed in this application also includes a flexible circuit board 400. One end of the flexible circuit board 400 is electrically connected to the circuit board 134 of the aforementioned light effect module 130, and the other end is electrically connected to the main board or sub-board of the electronic device. In this case, the flexible circuit board 400 enables the electrical connection between the light effect module 130 and the main board or sub-board of the electronic device.

[0105] In another alternative embodiment, the electronic device may further include a third seal 300 extending circumferentially along the first through hole 1102, with the functional module and the decorative body 110 sealed together via the third seal 300. In this solution, the third seal 300 seals the cavity 101, preventing dust from entering the cavity 101 through the first through hole 1102. Furthermore, the third seal 300 seals the aforementioned first space, ensuring its cleanliness and improving the imaging performance of the functional module.

[0106] In this application, the first seal 140, the second seal 150, and the third seal 300 can completely isolate the first space, the second space, and the external environment from each other, resulting in better consistency in dust control. At this time, the areas with openings and transparent decorative areas within all decorative parts 110 are separated, and the dustproof requirements for different areas are also different. This operation can maximize the overall yield and control costs.

[0107] In the specific assembly process of electronic devices, the decorative part body 110 can be glued to the housing 200 first. In the scheme where the decorative part body 110 is set separately, the first decorative part 111 can be glued to the housing 200 first, and then the first decorative part 111 and the second decorative part 112 can be assembled.

[0108] To ensure dust prevention during assembly, process protection material 500 can be applied to the groove and the side facing away from the groove of the decorative component body 110 during assembly. Process protection material 500 serves both dust prevention and force transmission during the dispensing and pressure holding process, preventing the pressure holding fixture from directly pressing onto the decorative component body 110 and avoiding the introduction of dirt and other defects, thereby improving the assembly yield of the electronic device. Then, the light effect module 130 is installed onto the decorative component body 110. The entire decorative component assembly is then cleaned of dust. Finally, the transparent lens 120 is attached to the groove of the recess 1101.

[0109] The components of the decorative body 110 mentioned above can be sealed and wrapped with sealing tape during transportation to improve the cleanliness of each component.

[0110] Optionally, the process protection material 500 described above may include a laminated PET (Polyethylene terephthalate) sheet, a first adhesive backing, rigid foam, and a second adhesive backing, the second adhesive backing being bonded to the decorative part body 110. The PET sheet is used to contact the pressure-holding fixture. The process protection material 500 may also have other structures, which are not limited herein.

[0111] The electronic devices disclosed in this application can be smartphones, tablets, e-book readers, wearable devices (such as smartwatches), video game consoles, etc. This application does not limit the specific types of electronic devices.
