Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the field of electronic equipment technology, specifically relating to a terminal protective cover and a terminal component. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of communication technology and the increasing demands of users, mobile phones, tablets, laptops, and other terminal devices have become indispensable products in people's lives. During the use of these devices, heat is generated, and the quality of their heat dissipation directly affects the performance and energy consumption of their central processing unit (CPU). Currently, terminal devices typically use internal cooling devices such as fans, but this results in reduced internal space and relatively poor heat dissipation performance. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this application is to provide a terminal protective cover and terminal component that can solve the problem of poor heat dissipation performance of terminal devices in related technologies.

[0004] In a first aspect, embodiments of this application provide a terminal protective case, including a first part and a second part. The first part is detachably connected to a terminal, and at least one of the first part and the second part is provided with a fan. The second part is rotatably connected to the first part, enabling the terminal protective case to have a protective usage state and a support usage state.

[0005] When the terminal protective case is in the protected use state, the first part is connected to the terminal, and the second part unfolds to cover the display side of the terminal;

[0006] When the terminal protective cover is in the supported use state, the first part is connected to the terminal, the second part is bent to support the first part, the second part is located on the side of the first part away from the terminal, the second part is bent to form a first channel, and the air inlet or air outlet of the fan is connected to the first channel.

[0007] Secondly, embodiments of this application provide a terminal component, including a terminal and a terminal protective case as described in the first aspect.

[0008] The terminal protective case provided in this application embodiment can be detachably connected to the terminal via a first part, and at least one of the first and second parts is equipped with a fan. Therefore, when using the terminal, it can be connected to the protective case, and the fan on the protective case can dissipate heat from the terminal, effectively improving the terminal's heat dissipation performance. Furthermore, the second part is bent and enclosed to form a first channel, and the fan's air inlet or outlet is connected to the first channel. This allows the first channel to guide and circulate the heat generated by the terminal, optimizing the airflow direction and further improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the protective case. In this way, the terminal can achieve heat dissipation by connecting to the protective case, eliminating the need for an internal cooling system, optimizing the terminal's internal space, and contributing to the development of thinner and lighter terminals.

[0022] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0023] The terms "first," "second," etc., used in the specification and claims of this application are used to distinguish similar objects and not to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such use of data can be interchanged where appropriate so that embodiments of this application can be implemented in orders other than those illustrated or described herein, and the objects distinguished by "first," "second," etc., are generally of the same class and the number of objects is not limited; for example, a first object can be one or more. 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.

[0024] This application provides a terminal protective case for use with a terminal. The terminal in this application can refer to a mobile phone, tablet computer, laptop computer, notebook computer, personal digital assistant (PDA), handheld computer, netbook, personal computer, etc. The terminal protective case can refer to a product independent of the terminal that can be detachably connected to it, such as a protective case or a magnetic keyboard that also provides protection; this application does not specifically limit the type of protective case.

[0025] Please refer to Figures 1 to 13The terminal protective case 10 provided in this application embodiment includes a first part 11 and a second part 12 connected to each other. The first part 11 is used to be detachably connected to the terminal 20. At least one of the first part 11 and the second part 12 is provided with a fan 13. The second part 12 is rotatably connected to the first part 11 so that the terminal protective case 10 has a protective use state and a support use state.

[0026] Among them, the terminal protective sleeve 10 is in such a position Figure 13 In the protected usage state shown, the first part 11 is connected to the terminal 20, and the second part 12 unfolds to cover the display side of the terminal 20. It can be understood that when the terminal protective case 10 is in the protected usage state, the display side and back side of the terminal 20 are covered by the second part 12 and the first part 11 of the terminal protective case 10, respectively, thereby enabling the terminal protective case 10 to protect the terminal 20.

[0027] When the terminal protective cover 10 is in the support and use state, the first part 11 is connected to the terminal 20, the second part 12 is bent to support the first part 11, the second part 12 is located on the side of the first part 11 away from the terminal 20, the second part 12 is bent to form the first channel 125, and the air inlet 131 or air outlet 132 of the fan 13 is connected to the first channel 125.

[0028] In this embodiment, the second part 12 can be a bendable component connected to one end of the first part 11. When the terminal protective sleeve 10 is in a supporting use state, the second part 12 is bent to form a support member that can support the first part 11. For example, as shown... Figure 1 and Figure 7 As shown, the second part 12 is bent to form a support member similar to a triangular pyramid shape. One end of the second part 12 abuts against the first part 11, and the second part 12 can support the first part 11. Thus, when the first part 11 is connected to the terminal 20, the second part 12 can also support both the first part 11 and the terminal 20.

[0029] Understandably, when the user needs to use the terminal 20, the terminal protective case 10 can be in a supported state, in which the display side of the terminal 20 is not covered by the second part 12, thus facilitating the user's operation and use of the terminal 20. When the user does not need to use the terminal 20, the second part 12 can be covered to cover the display side of the terminal 20, thereby putting the terminal protective case 10 in a protected state, and the terminal protective case 10 provides protection for the terminal 20.

[0030] In addition, such as Figure 6 and Figure 12As shown, when the terminal protective cover 10 is in the supported use state, the second part 12 is bent and enclosed to form the first channel 125. The air inlet 131 or air outlet 132 of the fan 13 is connected to the first channel 125, so that the fan 13 can play a good role in dissipating the heat generated by the terminal 20, which helps to improve the heat dissipation performance of the terminal 20.

[0031] The terminal protective case 10 provided in this application embodiment has a fan 13 provided in at least one of its first part 11 and second part 12. In one embodiment, please refer to... Figure 11 and Figure 12 The first part 11 of the terminal protective case 10 is equipped with a fan 13, and a heat dissipation channel 110 is formed between the first part 11 and the terminal 20, communicating with the outside of the terminal protective case 10. The air outlet 132 of the fan 13 is connected to the heat dissipation channel 110. Understandably, the first part 11 can connect to the terminal 20. When the terminal protective case 10 is connected to the terminal 20 through the first part 11, the heat generated by the terminal 20 can be conducted to the heat dissipation channel 110. When the fan 13 is running, the rotation of the fan 13 can blow the airflow in the heat dissipation channel 110 to the outside of the terminal protective case 10, thereby playing a good role in dissipating the heat generated by the terminal 20 and helping to improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the terminal 20.

[0032] In another implementation, please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 The second part 12 of the terminal protective case 10 is equipped with a fan 13. When the terminal protective case 10 is in a supported state, a heat dissipation channel 110 is formed between the second part 12 and the first part 11, and the air outlet 132 of the fan 13 is connected to the heat dissipation channel 110. It can be understood that the terminal protective case 10 is connected to the terminal 20 through the first part 11, and the second part 12 is connected to the first part 11 and can support the first part 11. That is, the second part 12 is adjacent to the first part 11, and the heat generated by the terminal 20 can be conducted to the heat dissipation channel 110 through the first part 11. The air outlet 132 of the fan 13 located in the second part 12 is connected to the heat dissipation channel 110. Therefore, when the fan 13 operates, the rotation of the fan 13 can blow the airflow in the heat dissipation channel 110 to the outside of the terminal protective case 10, thereby dissipating the heat generated by the terminal 20 connected to the first part 11 and helping to improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the terminal 20.

[0033] In another embodiment, both the first part 11 and the second part 12 may be equipped with fans 13. When the terminal protective cover 10 is in a supported state, a heat dissipation channel 110 is formed between the first part 11 and the second part 12, and the air outlet 132 of the fan 13 is connected to the heat dissipation channel 110. Therefore, when the terminal protective cover 10 is connected to the terminal 20, the terminal protective cover 10 can effectively dissipate the heat generated by the terminal 20 through the fans 13 located in the first part 11 and the second part 12, thus effectively improving heat dissipation efficiency. The heat dissipation channel 110 formed between the first part 11 and the second part 12 can guide and circulate the heat generated by the terminal 20, facilitating better heat dissipation and effectively improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the terminal protective cover 10 for the terminal 20.

[0034] The terminal protective case 10 provided in this application embodiment can be detachably connected to the terminal 20 through the first part 11, and at least one of the first part 11 and the second part 12 is provided with a fan 13. Thus, when using the terminal 20, the terminal 20 can be connected to the terminal protective case 10, and the fan 13 on the terminal protective case 10 can dissipate heat from the terminal 20, effectively improving the heat dissipation performance of the terminal 20. Furthermore, when the terminal protective case 10 is in a supported state, the second part 12 bends and encloses to form the first channel 125. The air inlet 131 or air outlet 132 of the fan 13 is connected to the first channel 125. Thus, the fan 13 can draw in cooler air from the first channel 125 through the air inlet 131 to dissipate heat from the first part 11 and the terminal 20. Alternatively, the operation of the fan 13 can blow heat conducted from the terminal 20 and the first part 11 into the first channel 125 through the air outlet 132 for heat dissipation. This allows the first channel 125 to guide and circulate the heat generated by the terminal 20, optimizing the airflow direction and further improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the terminal protective case 10 for the terminal 20. In this way, the terminal 20 can achieve heat dissipation by connecting to the terminal protective case 10, eliminating the need for a separate internal cooling system, optimizing the internal space of the terminal 20, and contributing to the thinner and lighter design of the terminal 20.

[0035] Furthermore, the terminal protective case 10 is detachably connected to the terminal 20 via the first part 11. Thus, when the terminal 20 is not in use or does not need the terminal protective case 10 for heat dissipation, it can be disconnected from the terminal protective case 10, which helps users carry or use the terminal 20 more easily and effectively improves the user experience.

[0036] Alternatively, please refer to Figure 6 and Figure 12The first part 11 includes an electrical connection structure 15 for electrically connecting to the terminal 20. The fan 13 is electrically connected to the electrical connection structure 15. When the first part 11 is connected to the terminal 20, the terminal 20 supplies power to the fan 13 through the electrical connection structure 15. In this way, the terminal 20 can supply power to the fan 13, and there is no need to set up an additional power supply on the terminal protective case 10, which helps to simplify the design of the terminal protective case 10 and also helps to reduce the cost of the terminal protective case 10.

[0037] Optionally, the electrical connection structure 15 includes electrical connection contacts or electrical connection springs, thereby making the design of the electrical connection structure 15 more flexible.

[0038] For example, the electrical connection structure 15 can be an electrical connection spring, and the terminal 20 can be provided with an electrical contact point 21 for connecting with the electrical connection spring, such as a pogo pin. The electrical connection spring is located in the first part 11. When the terminal protective sleeve 10 is connected to the terminal 20 through the first part 11, the electrical connection spring and the pogo pin on the terminal 20 are electrically connected, thereby enabling power supply to the fan 13 through the terminal 20 and ensuring the normal operation of the fan 13. For example, when the electrical connection spring and the pogo pin are electrically connected, the fan 13 starts and runs, thereby dissipating heat from the terminal 20.

[0039] Optionally, in some embodiments, the first part 11 and the second part 12 are connected by a connecting part 14. The fan 13 is positioned near the side of the second part 12 away from the connecting part 14, such that when the second part 12 is bent to support the first part 11, the fan 13 abuts against the first part 11. This allows the fan 13 to abut against the first part 11, and when the second part 12 is bent, the fan 13 is closer to the bottom of the first part 11 (which can be understood as the part connected to the connecting part 14). Therefore, the heat conducted from the terminal 20 to the first part 11 can flow away from the connecting part 14 under the rotation of the fan 13, preventing heat accumulation between the first part 11 and the second part 12, thereby better dissipating heat from the terminal 20.

[0040] Optionally, such as Figure 5 and Figure 11As shown, the second part 12 includes a first support part 121, a second support part 122, and a third support part 123 connected in sequence. The side of the third support part 123 facing away from the second support part 122 is connected to the first part 11. When the terminal protective sleeve 10 is in the support use state, the second part 12 is bent so that the first support part 121 and the second support part 122 are supported on the same side of the third support part 123. The first support part 121, the second support part 122, and the third support part 123 enclose to form a first channel 125. The first support part 121 abuts against the first part 11 to support the first part 11. The fan 13 is disposed on the first support part 121 or the first part 11. The air inlet 131 or the air outlet 132 of the fan 13 is connected to the first channel 125 through a through hole opened on the first support part 121.

[0041] Understandably, the second part 12, through the bending of the foldable first support 121, second support 122, and third support 123, can enclose and form a first channel 125 with a triangular cross-sectional shape. That is, the two ends of the second part 12, which are arranged opposite to each other along the extension direction of the first channel, are connected to form the first channel 125. The first channel 125 has a triangular shape in cross-section perpendicular to the extension direction of the first channel, thereby providing stable support for the terminal while ensuring the cooling function of the fan. The air inlet 131 of the fan 13 is connected to the first channel 125, so that the fan 13 provided on the first support 121 or the first part 11 can draw in cooler air from the outside through the first channel 125 to cool the first part 11, thereby achieving heat dissipation for the terminal 20. Alternatively, the air outlet 132 of the fan 13 can be connected to the first channel 125. For example, the fan 13 can be located on the first support part 121, with the air inlet 131 of the fan 13 facing the first part 11. Thus, when the fan 13 is running, it can draw in the heat conducted from the first part 11 and blow it into the first channel 125 through the air outlet 132, thereby achieving heat dissipation through the first channel 125. Furthermore, the triangular cross-sectional structure of the second part has better stability, allowing the second part 12 to better support and fix the first part 11, and thus better support the terminal 20 connected to the first part 11, effectively improving the user experience.

[0042] Optionally, such as Figures 1 to 6As shown, the second part 12 is equipped with a fan 13. The second part 12 includes a first support part 121, and the fan 13 is disposed on the first support part 121. The first support part 121 has a first through hole 126 communicating with the first channel 125. The air inlet 131 or air outlet 132 of the fan 13 communicates with the first through hole 126. When the terminal protective cover 10 is in the supported use state, the first support part 121 abuts against the first part 11 to support the first part, and the fan 13 is opposite to the first part 11 to dissipate heat from the first part 11.

[0043] For example, the fan 13 may be located in the first through hole 126, and the air inlet 131 or air outlet 132 of the fan 13 is connected to the first through hole 126. The air outlet 132 of the first fan 13 is opposite to the first part 11, so that when the fan 13 is running, it can dissipate heat to the first part 11, that is, the terminal 20 connected to the first part 11.

[0044] For example, in one embodiment, the air inlet 131 of the fan 13 is connected to the first through hole 126, and the air outlet 132 of the fan 13 is connected to the heat dissipation channel 110. Thus, the air inlet 131 of the fan 13 can also be connected to the first channel 125 through the first through hole 126. When the fan 13 is running, it can draw in lower-temperature air from the first channel 125 and blow it towards the heat dissipation channel 110 and the first part 11, thereby dissipating heat from the first part 11 and the terminal 20.

[0045] Alternatively, in another embodiment, the air inlet 131 of the fan 13 is connected to the heat dissipation channel 110, and the air outlet 132 of the fan 13 is connected to the first through hole 126. Thus, the air outlet 132 of the fan 13 can also be connected to the first channel 125 through the first through hole 126. When the fan 13 is running, it can draw in higher-temperature air from the heat dissipation channel 110 and blow it into the first channel 125, thereby achieving heat dissipation through the first channel 125.

[0046] Optionally, such as Figure 2 As shown, the first part 11 includes a housing 114 and a heat-conducting element 111. The housing 114 is detachably connected to the terminal 20; the heat-conducting element 111 is disposed on the housing 114 and is used to transfer heat from the terminal 20 to the first part 11. When the terminal protective sleeve 10 is in a supported use state, the fan 13 is at least partially overlapped with the heat-conducting element 111.

[0047] Alternatively, please refer to Figures 1 to 6In one embodiment of this application, a fan 13 is disposed on the second part 12 of the terminal protective sleeve 10, and a heat-conducting element 111 is disposed on the first part 11. When the terminal protective sleeve 10 is in a supported use state, the projection of the fan 13 relative to the first part 11 covers the heat-conducting element 111. It can be understood that the first part 11 is detachably connected to the terminal 20. Thus, when the first part 11 is connected to the terminal 20, the heat-conducting element 111 disposed on the first part 11 can absorb the heat conducted from the terminal 20 to the first part 11, while the fan 13 disposed on the second part 12 can dissipate heat and cool the heat-conducting element 111. Thus, through the combined action of the heat-conducting element 111 and the fan 13, the heat dissipation efficiency of the terminal 20 is effectively improved, which helps to ensure the working performance of the internal system of the terminal 20.

[0048] Optionally, the heat-conducting component 111 can be a copper sheet, a vacuum chamber (VC), a semiconductor cooling chip, etc., and this application embodiment does not specifically limit it. For example, in some embodiments, the heat-conducting component 111 is a copper sheet.

[0049] Alternatively, please continue to refer to Figures 1 to 6 A first through hole 126 penetrates the first support portion 121, and a fan 13 is disposed in the first through hole 126 such that the air inlet 131 of the fan 13 communicates with the first through hole 126. The first support portion 121 is provided with a second channel 124, and the air outlet 132 of the fan 13 communicates with the second channel 124 for heat dissipation. The second channel 124 includes a groove or through hole formed in the first support portion 121. When the terminal protective sleeve 10 is in the supported use state, the second channel 124 is sandwiched between the first portion 11 and the first channel 125, and the second channel 124 extends to communicate with the outside of the terminal protective sleeve 10.

[0050] In one implementation, such as Figure 3 As shown, the second channel 124 includes a groove (e.g., the first groove 1241) formed in the first support portion 121. One end of the groove extends to communicate with the outside of the terminal protective sleeve 10. The air outlet 132 of the fan 13 communicates with the groove, thereby enabling the rotation of the fan 13 to conduct heat to the outside of the terminal protective sleeve 10 through the air outlet 132 and the groove of the second channel 124, preventing heat from accumulating in the terminal protective sleeve 10, and thus better achieving heat dissipation for the first part 11 and the terminal 20.

[0051] In another embodiment, the second channel 124 may also include a through hole formed in the first support portion 121. Since the second channel 124 is sandwiched between the first portion 11 and the first channel 125, the through hole is connected to the first channel 125. This allows the heat conducted out of the first portion 11 to flow through the through hole and the first channel 125, thereby expanding the heat flow area and helping to further improve the heat dissipation effect of the terminal protective cover 10.

[0052] Please refer to the reference. Figure 1 , 3 Optionally, the first part 11 is further provided with a first recess 112, and the second channel 124 includes a first groove 1241 formed in the first support part 121. When the terminal protective sleeve 10 is in the supported use state, the first channel 125 communicates with the air inlet 131 of the fan 13 to serve as the air inlet channel of the fan 13; the first recess 112 is opposite to and communicates with the second channel 124 to enclose and form a heat dissipation channel 110 of the fan 13.

[0053] Optionally, the first recess 112 can be either a groove or an opening. For example... Figure 6 As shown, in one embodiment, the first recess 112 is a groove.

[0054] For example, such as Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the openings of the first recess 112 and the first groove 1241 are directly opposite each other, and there is a certain distance between the first recess 112 and the first groove 1241, meaning that the openings of the first recess 112 and the first groove 1241 do not contact each other. The first recess 112, the first groove 1241, and the space between the first recess 112 and the first groove 1241 together form a heat dissipation channel 110. This gives the heat dissipation channel 110 a larger flow volume and a larger heat dissipation space, thus enabling it to better dissipate the heat generated by the first part 11 and the terminal 20, effectively improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the terminal 20. Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the heat from terminal 20 is conducted to the first part 11, and the air inlet 131 of fan 13 ( Figure 5 The dashed arrow in the first channel 125 is connected to the first channel 125, so that the airflow in the first channel 125 can be drawn into the fan 13. The fan 13 blows this airflow toward the first part 11 and exchanges heat with the heat conducted to the first part 11, thereby achieving heat dissipation of the first part 11.

[0055] Alternatively, please refer to the following for details. Figure 5 and Figure 6The terminal protective case 10 also includes a connecting portion 14 that connects the first part 11 and the second part 12. When the terminal protective case 10 is in a supported state, the heat-conducting element 111 is closer to the connecting portion 14 relative to the first recess 112, and the fan 13 is closer to the connecting portion 14 relative to the first groove 1241. This makes the first recess 112 and the first groove 1241 closer to the external space of the terminal protective case 10, resulting in a larger gap between the first recess 112 and the first groove 1241. Consequently, the heat dissipation channel 110 formed by the first recess 112 and the first groove 1241 has a larger flow volume and heat dissipation space, which helps the heat generated by the terminal 20 to flow and diffuse more quickly, thereby effectively improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the terminal 20.

[0056] Alternatively, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 6 The first part 11 includes an electrical connection structure 15 for electrically connecting the terminal 20. The fan 13 is electrically connected to the electrical connection structure 15. When the first part 11 is connected to the terminal 20, the terminal 20 supplies power to the fan 13 through the electrical connection structure 15. When the terminal protective sleeve 10 is connected to the terminal 20, the electrical connection structure 15 is electrically connected to the electrical contact point 21 on the terminal 20, thereby supplying power to the fan 13 through the terminal 20 to ensure the normal operation of the fan 13.

[0057] Please refer to further details. Figure 2 and Figure 5 The terminal protective sleeve 10 also includes a flexible circuit board 16 and a connecting portion 14 for connecting the first part 11 and the second part 12. One end of the flexible circuit board 16 is connected to the electrical connection structure 15, and the other end of the flexible circuit board 16 is connected to the fan 13. The electrical connection structure 15 is exposed on the housing 114, and the flexible circuit board 16 is built into the housing 114, the connecting portion 14, and the second part 12 to rotate or bend with the second part 12. Furthermore, by providing the flexible circuit board 16, when the fan 13 is located in the second part 12, power can be supplied to the fan 13 through the flexible circuit board 16 to ensure the operation of the fan 13.

[0058] Alternatively, please refer to Figures 7 to 12 In another embodiment of this application, the first part 11 is provided with a fan 13, and the second part 12 includes a first support part 121. The first support part 121 has a first through hole 126 communicating with the first channel 125. The air inlet 131 or air outlet 132 of the fan 13 communicates with the first through hole 126. When the terminal protective sleeve 10 is in the supported use state, the first support part 121 abuts against the first part 11 to support the first part 11, and the air inlet 131 or air outlet 132 of the fan 13 communicates with the first channel 125 through the first through hole 126.

[0059] For example, such as Figure 7 As shown, when the terminal protective cover 10 is in the supported use state, the first through hole 126 on the first support part 121 is oriented towards the fan 13. In one embodiment, the air inlet 131 of the fan 13 is connected to the first channel 125 through the first through hole 126. Therefore, when the fan 13 is running, the airflow in the first channel 125 can be drawn into the fan 13 through the first through hole 126 and blown towards the first part 11 through the air outlet 132 of the fan 13, thereby cooling the first part 11 and thus dissipating heat from the terminal 20. In another embodiment, the air outlet 132 of the fan 13 is connected to the first channel 125 through the first through hole 126. Therefore, when the fan 13 is running, the fan 13 can blow the absorbed heat into the first channel 125 through the air outlet 132 through the first through hole 126, thereby achieving heat dissipation through the first channel 125.

[0060] Optionally, the first part 11 includes a housing 114 for detachable connection with the terminal 20. The housing 114 has a third channel 113, and the air outlet 132 of the fan 13 communicates with the third channel 113 for heat dissipation. The third channel 113 includes a groove or through hole formed in the first part.

[0061] Please refer to further details. Figure 11 and Figure 12 When the terminal protective sleeve 10 is in a supported state, the first support 121 overlaps with at least a portion of the fan 13. The fan's air inlet 131 communicates with the first through hole 126. The first channel 125 communicates with the fan 13's air inlet 131 through the first through hole 126 to serve as the fan 13's air intake channel. The third channel 113 extends to communicate with the outside of the terminal protective sleeve 10 for heat dissipation. Figure 12 As shown, the airflow in the first channel 125 can be drawn in by the fan 13 through the first through hole 126, and the heat generated by the terminal 20 can also be conducted to the first part 11. The third channel 113 extends to communicate with the outside of the terminal protective cover 10. The air outlet 132 of the fan 13 is connected to the third channel 113. Thus, the operation of the fan 13 can blow the heat conducted to the first part 11 to the outside of the terminal protective cover 10 through the third channel 113, thereby better achieving heat dissipation of the terminal 20.

[0062] Alternatively, please refer to further details. Figure 9The third channel 113 includes a second groove 1131 formed in the housing 114. The second groove 1131 is formed on the side of the housing 114 near the terminal 20, so that the third channel 113 is formed between the housing 114 and the terminal 20. The housing 114 has a second through hole 115 that penetrates the housing 114, and the fan 13 is disposed in the second through hole 115. When the terminal protective cover 10 is in the supported use state, the orthographic projection of the second through hole 115 on the plane where the first support part 121 is located overlaps with at least a portion of the first through hole 126. In this way, the orthographic projection of the fan 13 disposed in the second through hole 115 on the plane where the first support part 121 is located overlaps with at least a portion of the first through hole 126. This ensures that the air inlet 131 of the fan 13 faces or is close to the first through hole 126, and ensures that the fan 13 can draw in airflow from the first channel 125 through the first through hole 126 to achieve heat dissipation for the first part 11 and the terminal 20.

[0063] Optionally, such as Figure 9 As shown, the terminal protective case 10 also includes a flexible circuit board 16. One end of the flexible circuit board 16 is connected to the electrical connection structure 15, and the other end is connected to the fan 13. In this embodiment, the fan 13 is located in the first part 11, and the electrical connection structure 15 is also located in the first part 11. This reduces the size requirement for the flexible circuit board 16 and helps save installation space on the terminal protective case 10 for mounting the flexible circuit board 16, thereby reducing the design and manufacturing cost of the terminal protective case 10.

[0064] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the fan 13 is located in the first part 11, which is connected to the terminal 20. This allows the fan 13 to directly dissipate heat from the terminal 20, eliminating the need for heat-conducting components and helping to reduce the design and manufacturing costs of the terminal protective case 10. Moreover, by directly dissipating heat from the fan 13, the heat conduction process of the heat-conducting components is avoided, resulting in a significant improvement in the heat dissipation efficiency of the terminal 20.

[0065] Optionally, the terminal protective case 10 provided in this application embodiment may include a mounting bracket 102 and a first skin 101 and a second skin 103 disposed on both sides of the mounting bracket 102. The fan 13, electrical connection structure 15, flexible circuit board 16, etc., may all be mounted on the mounting bracket 102. The first skin 101 and the second skin 103 serve to protect the mounting bracket 102 and the devices mounted on it, and also help improve the overall aesthetics of the terminal protective case 10. It should be noted that the mounting bracket 102, the first skin 101, and the second skin 103 all include the aforementioned first part 11 and second part 12. Optionally, the first part 11 may be provided with a magnet to achieve the fixing and communication functions between the terminal protective case 10 and the terminal 20.

[0066] Optionally, in this embodiment, the fan 13 is embedded in the first part 11 or the second part 12. The thickness of the fan 13 is less than or equal to the thickness of the first part 11 or the second part 12. The air inlet 131 of the fan 13 is connected through the first channel 125, and the air outlet 132 of the fan 13 is connected to the outside of the terminal protective sleeve 10 through the groove or through hole opened in the first part 11 or the second part 12 for heat dissipation. For details, please refer to the description in the foregoing embodiment, which will not be repeated here.

The circuit board 1302, stator coil 1303, magnet 1304, and fan blade 1305 are housed in the mounting space formed by the first housing 1301 and the second housing 1306. The specific connection relationships of the above-mentioned components in the fan 13 can be referred to in related technologies, and will not be elaborated upon in this embodiment. The circuit board 1302 is electrically connected to the flexible circuit board 16 to achieve conductivity of the circuit board 1302, ensuring the operation of the fan 13 and achieving heat dissipation for the terminal 20.

[0068] This application embodiment also provides a terminal component, which includes a terminal 20 and a terminal protective case 10 as described in the above embodiments. The terminal component includes all the technical features of the terminal protective case 10 in the above embodiments and can achieve the same technical effect. To avoid repetition, it will not be described again here.

[0069] Optionally, such as Figure 6 and Figure 12 As shown, the terminal 20 has an electrical contact point 21 on the side opposite to the display side. When the terminal protective cover 10 and the terminal 20 are detachably connected, the electrical contact point 21 is electrically connected to the electrical connection structure 15 on the terminal protective cover 10. The electrical connection structure 15 is electrically connected to the fan 13, so that the terminal 20 can supply power to the fan 13 to ensure the operation of the fan.

[0070] Optionally, the electrical connection structure 15 can be a conductive spring, and the electrical connection contact 21 can be a pogo pin. When the terminal protective sleeve 10 is connected to the terminal 20 through the first part 11, the conductive spring and the pogo pin on the terminal 20 are electrically connected, so that the fan 13 on the terminal protective sleeve 10 can be powered through the terminal 20, ensuring the normal operation of the fan 13, and thus heat dissipating heat from the terminal 20 through the fan 13.

[0071] Optionally, the terminal protective case 10 can be a protective case for the terminal 20 or a magnetic keyboard.
