Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the field of communication technology, specifically relating to 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] In existing electronic device structural designs, decorative components are usually configured to cover the camera module, thereby concealing the camera module and avoiding the risk of exposed components, which in turn helps to improve the overall appearance integrity of the electronic device.

[0004] To optimize the appearance of electronic devices, decorative parts are often made of transparent materials. However, these decorative parts often have internal grooves, ribs, or other shaped structures. Using transparent materials exposes these internal structures, resulting in a cluttered appearance and ultimately leading to poor consistency in the overall look of the electronic device. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this application is to provide an electronic device that can solve the technical problem of poor appearance consistency in electronic devices.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this application is implemented as follows: This application discloses an electronic device, including: The housing has mounting holes; The decorative component includes a decorative body, a transparent ring, a lens, a first adhesive component, and a second adhesive component. The decorative body is mounted in the mounting hole, and the lens is disposed on the decorative body. The outer surface of the decorative body has an annular textured surface. The transparent ring surrounds the decorative body and is opposite to the annular textured surface. The transparent ring has a first surface and a second surface that are opposite to each other. The first surface is located on the side of the transparent ring away from the housing, and the second surface is located on the side of the transparent ring facing the housing. The main body of the decorative piece extends toward the transparent ring from the side away from the housing to form an annular covering area extending circumferentially along the transparent ring, the annular covering area covering at least a portion of the first surface; The first adhesive is disposed between the annular covering area and the first surface, and the second adhesive is disposed between the second surface and the outer surface of the housing.

[0007] In this embodiment, a ring-shaped textured surface is provided on the outer side of the decorative component body, and a transparent ring surrounds the decorative component body and is positioned opposite to the ring-shaped textured surface. Simultaneously, an annular covering area is formed by extending the decorative component body, directly covering the assembly area between the transparent ring and the decorative component body. In this design, the transparent ring retains the transparent and refined texture of the transparent material, thereby enriching the appearance layers and creating a novel and unique transparent visual effect. At the same time, the ring-shaped textured surface shields the internal grooves, ribs, and non-exterior components of the decorative component body from the inside, and the annular covering area further conceals the assembly position between the transparent ring and the decorative component body. Therefore, the ring-shaped textured surface and the annular covering area form a double shielding structure, effectively preventing the internal structure of the decorative component body from being exposed through the transparent ring, thereby weakening visual interference and effectively avoiding the risk of visual clutter in the decorative components, resulting in better appearance consistency of the electronic device. Therefore, the electronic device disclosed in this application has both good appearance consistency and a three-dimensional, transparent appearance texture. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0010] 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.

[0011] 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.

[0012] The electronic device provided in the embodiments of this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and through specific embodiments and application scenarios.

[0013] Please refer to Figures 1 to 12 This application discloses an electronic device, which includes a housing 100 and a decorative component 200.

[0014] The housing 100 serves as the external component of the electronic device and also provides a mounting base for other components of the electronic device. The housing 100 has an inner cavity and mounting holes 101 communicating with the inner cavity. The inner cavity is the space within the housing 100 used to mount functional components of the electronic device. For example, circuit boards, motherboard brackets, camera modules, and other components of the electronic device are mounted in the inner cavity. The mounting holes 101 are formed on the housing wall of the housing 100 to expose some functional components. In this application, the mounting holes 101 are used to expose the camera module.

[0015] In one embodiment, the housing 100 may include a frame and a back cover, where the back cover can also be understood as a battery cover, and the frame is the side of the housing 100. The frame surrounds the battery cover, and in this case, the frame has a ring structure, connecting to the outer edge of the battery cover. The frame and the battery cover together form the aforementioned inner cavity. This can be understood as the frame and the battery cover forming a recessed portion, so the inner cavity is essentially a recessed portion. This recessed portion is the inner cavity of the housing 100. The display screen of the electronic device in this application can be located on the side of the frame away from the battery cover. This can also be understood as the display screen being located on the side of the opening of the recessed portion, thereby making the recessed portion a closed structure.

[0016] In another embodiment, the housing 100 may include a front cover, a frame, and a rear cover, with the frame located between the front and rear covers. The frame, front cover, and rear cover together enclose the aforementioned inner cavity. The display screen of the electronic device in this application may be disposed on the front cover. Of course, the housing 100 is not limited to the structure in this application and may also be other structures. This is not a limitation herein. In other embodiments of this application, the electronic device further includes a display screen assembly, which may be mounted on the housing 100.

[0017] The aforementioned mounting hole 101 can be made on the rear cover. Of course, the mounting hole 101 is not limited to the rear cover, but can also be made in other positions of the housing 100. This article does not limit this.

[0018] The decorative component 200 is mounted on the housing 100 for shielding and decorating the camera module. The decorative component 200 disclosed in this application includes a decorative body 210, a transparent ring 220, a lens 230, a first adhesive member 250, and a second adhesive member 260. The decorative body 210 is mounted in the mounting hole 101 and serves as the main structure, providing a mounting base for other structures of the decorative component 200. The decorative body 210 also plays a primary shielding role. To allow ambient light to pass through the decorative body 210, a light-transmitting hole is provided on the decorative body 210. This light-transmitting hole is positioned opposite to the lens of the camera module, allowing external light to pass through and enter the camera module, thus enabling the shooting function.

[0019] A lens 230 is disposed on the decorative body 210, and the lens 230 blocks the light-transmitting hole on the decorative body 210. The lens 230 and the light-transmitting hole form the light-transmitting area of ​​the decorative component 200. The outer surface of the decorative body 210 is provided with an annular textured surface 2101. Here, the outer surface can be understood as the outer peripheral surface of the decorative body 210. The outer peripheral surface is provided with a textured structure so that the outer peripheral surface serves as an annular textured surface 2101.

[0020] A transparent ring 220 surrounds the decorative body 210 and faces the annular textured surface 2101. The light-transmitting ring extends circumferentially along the decorative body 210. The inner surface of the light-transmitting ring faces the annular textured surface 2101. The transparent ring 220 has a first surface 221 and a second surface 222 facing away from the housing 100. The first surface 221 is located on the side of the transparent ring 220 facing away from the housing 100, and the second surface 222 is located on the side of the transparent ring 220 facing the housing 100. This can be understood as the first surface 221 and the second surface 222 being arranged along the axial direction of the transparent ring 220 at opposite ends of the transparent ring 220. Here, the first surface 221 can be the top surface of the transparent ring 220, and the second surface 222 can be the bottom surface of the transparent ring 220.

[0021] The decorative body 210 extends from the side opposite to the housing 100 toward the transparent ring 220 to form an annular covering area 2102 extending circumferentially along the transparent ring 220, covering at least a portion of the first surface 221. At this time, the annular covering area 2102 completely covers the first surface 221 circumferentially, that is, the assembly area between the decorative body 210 and the transparent ring 220. For example, the decorative gap or assembly position between the decorative body 210 and the transparent ring 220 is completely covered by the annular covering area 2102. The annular covering area 2102 also covers at least a portion of the first surface 221 radially. It can be understood that the diameter of the annular covering area 2102 can be larger than the inner diameter of the transparent ring 220 and smaller than or equal to the outer diameter of the light-transmitting ring.

[0022] The first adhesive member 250 is disposed between the annular covering area 2102 and the first surface 221. At this time, the decorative body 210 and the transparent ring 220 are bonded together by the first adhesive member 250. The first adhesive member 250 extends circumferentially along the transparent ring 220, thereby achieving a circumferential seal bond between the decorative body 210 and the transparent ring 220. The second adhesive member 260 is disposed between the second surface 222 and the outer surface of the housing 100. At this time, the outer surface of the housing 100 and the transparent ring 220 are bonded together by the second adhesive member 260. The second adhesive member 260 extends circumferentially along the transparent ring 220, thereby achieving a circumferential seal bond between the housing 100 and the transparent ring 220.

[0023] In the embodiments disclosed in this application, an annular textured surface 2101 is provided on the outer side of the decorative component body 210, and a transparent ring 220 is disposed around the decorative component body 210 and opposite to the annular textured surface 2101. Simultaneously, an annular covering area 2102 is formed by extending the decorative component body 210, directly covering the assembly area between the transparent ring 220 and the decorative component body 210. In this case, the transparent ring 220 retains the transparent and delicate texture brought by the transparent material, thereby enriching the appearance layers and forming a novel and unique transparent visual effect. Meanwhile, the annular textured surface 2101 shields the internal recesses, ribs, and non-exterior components of the decorative body 210 from the inside. The annular covering area 2102 further shields the assembly position between the transparent ring 220 and the decorative body 210, as well as the internal recesses, ribs, and non-exterior components of the decorative body 210. Therefore, the annular textured surface 2101 and the annular covering area 2102 form a double shielding structure, effectively preventing the internal structure of the decorative body 210 from being exposed through the transparent ring 220, thereby weakening visual interference and effectively avoiding the risk of visual clutter in the decorative component 200, thus resulting in better appearance consistency of the electronic device. Therefore, the electronic device disclosed in this application has both good appearance consistency and a three-dimensional, transparent appearance texture.

[0024] Furthermore, the transparent ring 220 surrounds the main body circumferentially and faces the annular textured surface 2101. Utilizing the light transmission and perspective properties of the transparent material, the annular textured surface 2101 presents a subtly layered visual effect, enhancing the three-dimensionality and transparency of the appearance. Simultaneously, the annular textured surface 2101 and the transparent ring 220 work together to create variations in light and shadow refraction, presenting different visual perceptions from different angles, thereby effectively improving the aesthetic appeal and detail. Therefore, the electronic device disclosed in this application has superior appearance performance.

[0025] Furthermore, the transparent ring 220 in this application is not used for assembly with the camera module. Therefore, the transparent ring 220 adopts a narrow-edge solution with no redundant structure, and the overall outline is concise and compact. After assembly, it does not occupy the surrounding space and has no structural interference with other components of the whole machine, thereby effectively reducing manufacturing costs and reducing assembly and manufacturing difficulties.

[0026] In the embodiments disclosed in this application, the second adhesive 260 is located between the second surface 222 of the transparent ring 220 and the outer surface of the housing 100, thus directly sealing the assembly gap between the transparent ring 220 and the housing 100, preventing external moisture and dust from seeping in from the joint between the housing 100 and the transparent ring 220; the first adhesive 250 fills the space between the annular covering area 2102 and the first surface 221 of the transparent ring 220, and is used to seal the mating gap between the decorative body 210 and the transparent ring 220. At this time, the two seals cooperate with each other, greatly improving the overall sealing reliability.

[0027] Furthermore, the annular covering area 2102 extending from the main body 210 of the decorative component circumferentially wraps around at least a portion of the first surface 221 of the transparent ring 220, thus forming an annular retaining edge. External liquid water and condensation are blocked by this retaining edge, making it difficult for them to directly flow into the mating gap between the main body 210 of the decorative component 210 and the transparent ring 220. This reduces the sealing load on the first adhesive component 250 and prevents water from eroding the adhesive layer and bonding interface over a long period, delaying adhesive aging and delamination, thereby ensuring long-term waterproof performance. Simultaneously, the transparent ring 220 is sandwiched between the annular covering area 2102 and the shell 100, resulting in non-straight, bent paths in the mating gaps, preventing water vapor from penetrating in a straight line. Therefore, the elongated and bent penetration channels significantly increase the difficulty of water and moisture intrusion. Combined with the two full-circumferential annular adhesive joints, this effectively prevents rainwater, water mist, condensation, and other liquids from seeping into the internal cavity under various conditions.

[0028] In the above scheme, the transparent ring 220 can be made of transparent plastic or transparent glass. The main body 210 of the decorative component can be made of plastic or metal. In one specific scheme, the transparent ring 220 can be made of PC (Polycarbonate) sheet and manufactured by CNC (Computer Numerical Control) machining. Of course, the transparent ring 220 can also be made in other ways, which are not limited herein.

[0029] Optionally, the first adhesive component 250 and the second adhesive component 260 can be made of adhesive materials such as glue or double-sided tape. Of course, the first adhesive component 250 can also be made of other adhesive materials, which is not limited in this article.

[0030] In the above solution, the user can directly see the second adhesive 260 through the transparent ring 220, thus reducing the aesthetic appeal of the electronic device.

[0031] Based on this, in another alternative embodiment, the decorative component 200 may further include a shielding portion 240, which may cover the second surface 222, and the second adhesive 260 may be located on the side of the shielding portion 240 opposite to the second surface 222.

[0032] In this solution, a shielding part 240 is added to cover the second surface 222 of the transparent ring 220. The shielding part 240 can completely shield the second adhesive part 260, thereby preventing the user from directly observing the second adhesive part 260 through the transparent ring 220. This helps to eliminate the visual clutter caused by exposed adhesive parts, thus ensuring a clean and uniform appearance of the decorative area and effectively improving the overall aesthetics and visual consistency of the electronic device.

[0033] Furthermore, the shielding portion 240 may include a textured structure and a light-shielding layer. The textured structure may be disposed on the second surface 222, and the light-shielding layer may cover the second surface 222. This can be understood as the user being able to directly see the textured structure through the transparent ring 220; therefore, the textured structure is located on the side of the light-shielding layer opposite to the second adhesive member 260. The light-shielding layer is used to block light, so light cannot penetrate the light-shielding layer, meaning the second adhesive member 260 located below the light-shielding layer is not visible. The light-shielding layer can be bonded to the outer surface of the housing 100 via the second adhesive member 260.

[0034] In this design, the textured structure is exposed inside the transparent ring 220, allowing users to observe the textured shape through the ring. This enriches the visual layers of the decorative area and enhances the product's visual appeal and decorative effect. A light-shielding layer is positioned between the textured structure and the second adhesive component 260. Utilizing its light-shielding properties, it blocks light penetration, completely concealing the second adhesive component 260 behind it. This solves the problem of the exposed second adhesive component 260 affecting aesthetics, thus achieving a balance between decorative effect and masking requirements, further improving the appearance of the electronic device.

[0035] In addition, the light-shielding layer prevents the second adhesive 260 from directly contacting the transparent ring 220, thus preventing the adhesive material from penetrating and overflowing onto the inner and outer surfaces of the transparent ring 220. This avoids appearance defects such as fogging, spots, and color differences on the transparent ring 220, thereby ensuring the light transmission and visual transparency of the transparent ring 220.

[0036] In the above scheme, the textured structure can be directly plated or transferred onto the second surface 222 of the transparent ring 220, or it can be directly plated or transferred onto the light-shielding layer. The light-shielding layer can be made of light-shielding materials such as rubber or ink. In one specific scheme, the entire PC sheet is first positioned using positioning holes, then the textured structure is UV-transferred to give the bottom of the transparent PC sheet a textured effect. Then, a layer of ink is applied to the bottom, and a transparent ring 220 with a shielding portion 240 is manufactured using CNC machining. Finally, polishing is applied to improve transparency.

[0037] In another alternative embodiment, a groove 212a may be formed on the side of the annular covering area 2102 facing the transparent ring 220. A first protrusion 225 may be formed on the side of the first surface 221 facing the inner edge of the transparent ring 220, with at least a portion of the first protrusion 225 located within the groove 212a. In this design, the first protrusion 225 and the groove 212a form a convex-concave interlocking fit, allowing for rapid radial and circumferential pre-positioning during assembly, preventing component misalignment and improving assembly accuracy. Furthermore, the structural limiting distributes the positioning pressure of the first adhesive component 250, preventing component slippage before bonding and curing, and reducing the defect rate. Additionally, positioning via the first protrusion 225 and the groove 212a does not affect the height of the texture on the annular textured surface 2101, thus allowing the texture on the annular textured surface 2101 to be set higher, making it easier for the user to see and resulting in a more noticeable appearance.

[0038] In the above scheme, the first adhesive 250 can be directly attached to the first surface 221, and the first surface 221 is bonded to the annular covering area 2102 through the first adhesive 250.

[0039] In another embodiment, the first protrusion 225 can be an annular structure extending circumferentially along the transparent ring 220. Of course, to allow the first protrusion 225 to mate with the groove 212a, the groove 212a is also an annular groove. The first adhesive member 250 can be located within the groove 212a, and the first protrusion 225 can be bonded to the decorative body 210 via the first adhesive member 250. In this case, since at least a portion of the first protrusion 225 is located within the groove 212a, the aforementioned annular covering area 2102 completely covers the first protrusion 225. Therefore, the outer diameter of the annular covering area 2102 is larger than the outer diameter of the first protrusion 225.

[0040] In this design, the groove 212a forms a receiving space, which can limit the first adhesive component 250, thereby preventing it from overflowing or falling off due to external pressure, ensuring the stability and reliability of the bonding. Simultaneously, the first protrusion 225 is embedded within the groove 212a, forming a double fixation of surface bonding and structural snap-fit. Compared to pure planar bonding, this significantly improves tensile and torsional resistance, making it less prone to loosening over long-term use and further enhancing the reliability of the connection. Furthermore, the concave-convex fit forms a labyrinthine sealing structure, which, together with the adhesive component within the groove 212a, effectively prevents dust and moisture from seeping in through the gaps, further improving the dustproof and waterproof performance of the electronic device. In addition, the first adhesive component 250 is built into the groove 212a and is not easily exposed, thus preventing damage from external scratches and ensuring a smooth and clean appearance, further enhancing the product's aesthetic appeal.

[0041] In the above scheme, the inner diameter of the first protrusion 225 can be larger than the inner diameter of the transparent ring 220.

[0042] In another embodiment, the first protrusion 225 protrudes radially from the inner annular surface of the transparent ring 220. This can be understood as the inner diameter of the first protrusion 225 being smaller than the inner diameter of the transparent ring 220. The first adhesive component 250 is located between the surface of the first protrusion 225 facing away from the first surface 221 and the bottom wall of the groove 212a. The inner annular surface of the first protrusion 225 abuts against the side wall of the groove 212a. Specifically, the inner annular surface of the first protrusion 225 abuts against the side wall of the groove 212a, thereby achieving bidirectional hard limiting in both the circumferential and radial directions. After assembly, the component has no radial movement or circumferential rotation, significantly improving the coaxiality of the assembly and the overall structural coaxiality accuracy. The first adhesive component 250 is sandwiched between the end face of the first protrusion 225 and the bottom wall of the groove 212a, completely defining the space. The first adhesive component 250 will not be squeezed, displaced, or overflow, and the adhesive thickness is uniform, thus ensuring stable adhesive area and adhesive strength.

[0043] In this design, the inner annular surface of the first protrusion 225 is designated as the limiting mating surface, and the top surface as the adhesive mating surface. Therefore, the two functional areas are independent of each other. On one hand, the limiting surface is free from interference from adhesive components, ensuring a precise fit and effectively preventing radial offset and circumferential rotation of the components. On the other hand, the adhesive area is unaffected by the limiting structure, allowing for neatly arranged and uniformly thick adhesive components with stable bonding strength. The two functions do not interfere with each other, guaranteeing overall assembly accuracy and positioning reliability while avoiding defects such as excess adhesive and localized delamination. Simultaneously, it simplifies the manufacturing process and extends the overall service life of the structure.

[0044] In another alternative embodiment, the decorative component 200 may further include a third adhesive member 270. The decorative component body 210 may include a separately configured first bracket 211 and a second bracket 212. The first bracket 211 may be installed in the mounting hole 101. The second bracket 212 and the third adhesive member 270 may both be disposed on the side of the first bracket 211 away from the housing 100. The first bracket 211 may be bonded to the second bracket 212 by the third adhesive member 270. The second bracket 212 is disposed around the lens 230.

[0045] The outer peripheral surface of the first support 211 can be an annular textured surface 2101. A transparent ring 220 is disposed around the first support 211. The second support 212 can form an annular covering area 2102. The second support 212 can be bonded to the transparent ring 220 through the first adhesive 250. The aforementioned groove 212a can be formed on the side of the second support 212 facing the transparent ring 220.

[0046] In this design, the main body 210 of the decorative component is divided into two independent parts: a first support 211 and a second support 212. Compared to a single integrated structure, the individual component design is simpler, and the difficulty of mold processing and injection molding is reduced. This helps to reduce defects such as shrinkage and deformation in large-component molding, thereby improving product yield. Furthermore, the first support 211 integrates a ring-shaped textured surface 2101 and serves as a base mounted on the housing 100, thus fulfilling the functions of positioning and basic load-bearing. The second support 212 forms a ring-shaped covering area 2102 and surrounds the lens 230, responsible for bonding with the transparent ring 220. Therefore, the functional division of the components is clear, and a single component does not need to accommodate multiple complex structures, resulting in stronger design and operational stability. Additionally, the third adhesive 270 secures the first support 211 and the second support 212, while the first adhesive 250 bonds the second support 212 to the transparent ring 220. Therefore, the double-bonding structure of the first adhesive 250 and the third adhesive 270 forms a stable overall structure with stronger resistance to loosening and torsion.

[0047] Optionally, the third adhesive component 270 can be made of adhesive materials such as glue or double-sided tape, or other adhesive materials, which are not limited in this article.

[0048] Furthermore, the second support 212 may include a first annular portion 2121 and a second annular portion 2122. The lens 230, the first annular portion 2121, and the first support 211 may be stacked sequentially. The second annular portion 2122 may be located on the side of the first annular portion 2121 opposite to the first support 211. The first annular portion 2121 and the second annular portion 2122 together form a recessed structure 2123. At least a portion of the lens 230 may be located within the recessed structure 2123. The second annular portion 2122 may have the aforementioned annular covering area 2102. The second annular portion 2122 may be bonded to the transparent ring 220 via a first adhesive member 250. The first annular portion 2121 may be bonded to the first support 211 via a third adhesive member 270.

[0049] In this design, the first annular portion 2121 and the second annular portion 2122 together form a recessed structure 2123. At least a portion of the lens 230 is housed within the recessed structure 2123, thereby achieving circumferential and axial positioning of the lens 230 and preventing displacement or warping of the lens 230, thus effectively improving the stability of the lens 230's assembly position. Furthermore, the first annular portion 2121 is bonded to the first bracket 211 via the third adhesive 270, thus responsible for connecting and fixing the decorative component 200; while the second annular portion 2122 has an annular covering area 2102, which is bonded to the transparent ring 220 via the first adhesive 250, responsible for the appearance and external connection. Therefore, the two bonding areas are independent of each other, and the load is distributed, thus avoiding the risk of excessive stress on a single bonding surface. Simultaneously, the two bonding positions are located in different annular parts, resulting in a regular bonding surface layout, preventing mutual interference and overflow of the adhesive, ensuring uniform bonding strength, and reducing the likelihood of delamination over long-term use. In addition, the first annular portion 2121 and the second annular portion 2122 are integral structures of the second bracket 212, so no additional splicing accessories are needed, the number of parts is small, thereby simplifying material management and processing procedures, which in turn helps to reduce production costs.

[0050] Furthermore, the first bracket 211 has a receiving groove 2111 on the side facing the second bracket 212, and at least a portion of the first annular portion 2121 can be located within the receiving groove 2111. In this design, the first annular portion 2121 is at least partially embedded in the receiving groove 2111, achieving multiple radial, circumferential, and axial limits, making it less prone to displacement or rotation after assembly, thereby improving the overall coaxiality and assembly accuracy of the components. In addition, the receiving groove 2111 forms a wrapping constraint on the first annular portion 2121, thus increasing the effective mating area when used with the third adhesive 270, while limiting the displacement and adhesive overflow of the third adhesive 270, resulting in more uniform force on the third adhesive 270 and further improving the connection strength. Furthermore, the first annular portion 2121 is embedded in the receiving groove 2111, which helps to reduce the stacking height of the first bracket 211 and the second bracket 212, thereby reducing the axial space occupation, further optimizing the overall thickness, and adapting to the requirements of lightweight product design. In addition, the embedded structure also helps to form a labyrinth gap, which further improves the dustproof and waterproof performance of the whole machine.

[0051] In the above scheme, the lens 230 is mounted on the second bracket 212, which is then assembled with the first bracket 211. To improve the appearance, a light-transmitting area is reserved on the lens 230 that corresponds to the lens of the camera module, while the areas not corresponding to the lens are shielded. Therefore, during assembly, the assembly accuracy of the first bracket 211 and the second bracket 212 must be ensured to guarantee that the light-transmitting area on the lens 230 is aligned with the lens of the camera module. Of course, the light-transmitting area on the lens 230 also needs to be aligned with the light-transmitting hole on the first bracket 211 without misalignment.

[0052] Based on this, in another optional embodiment, the first annular portion 2121 may be provided with a first positioning portion 2121a, and the first bracket 211 may be provided with a second positioning portion 2112, with the first positioning portion 2121a and the second positioning portion 2112 engaging in positioning cooperation. In this solution, the cooperation structure of the first positioning portion 2121a and the second positioning portion 2112 achieves precise alignment between the second bracket 212 and the first bracket 211, ensuring that the light-transmitting area of ​​the lens 230 is always aligned with the light-transmitting hole of the first bracket 211 and the lens of the camera module, thus guaranteeing light transmission performance. In addition, this positioning structure can effectively prevent component misalignment and rotation during the assembly stage, and also has a guiding function, simplifying the assembly process and improving production efficiency and finished product yield.

[0053] Optionally, one of the first positioning part 2121a and the second positioning part 2112 can be a positioning protrusion, and the other can be a positioning groove. In one specific embodiment, a positioning hole can be formed on the first annular part 2121, and a positioning post can be provided on the bottom surface of the receiving groove 2111, which can be positioned and engaged with the positioning hole. Of course, the first positioning part 2121a and the second positioning part 2112 can also be other positioning structures, which are not limited herein.

[0054] In another alternative embodiment, the third adhesive 270 may include a first adhesive layer 271 and a first double-sided adhesive layer 272, wherein the first adhesive layer 271 may be disposed around the first double-sided adhesive layer 272.

[0055] In this design, the third adhesive component 270 is configured as a combination of a first double-sided adhesive layer 272 and a first dotted adhesive layer 271 surrounding its outer side. Temporary support and pre-fixation are achieved by the first double-sided adhesive layer 272, requiring only a single dotting and pressure-holding operation during assembly. This simplifies the traditional multi-step pressure-holding process, effectively improving assembly efficiency and reducing overall production costs. Furthermore, the double-sided adhesive and the dotted adhesive layer form a dual-adhesive system, strengthening the connection between components and sealing gaps with the outer dotted adhesive layer, thus enhancing sealing and protection. Simultaneously, the double-sided adhesive constrains the flow of adhesive, reducing overflow defects and preventing component displacement before the adhesive layer cures, further ensuring assembly quality.

[0056] In another alternative embodiment, the decorative component 200 may further include a fourth adhesive member 280, through which the decorative body 210 and the housing 100 may be bonded, and a second adhesive member 260 may be disposed around the fourth adhesive member 280.

[0057] In this design, the fourth adhesive component 280 achieves a basic seal between the decorative component body 210 and the housing 100. The surrounding second adhesive component 260 forms a second sealing ring on the outer edge. This double-layer sealing structure significantly improves the overall sealing performance. Furthermore, the two adhesive components are arranged in a nested ring, effectively extending the penetration path of moisture and dust, further preventing dust and moisture from entering the interior of the electronic device through assembly gaps, thus further enhancing the sealing performance. Additionally, when the housing 100 and the decorative component body undergo slight deformation due to vibration or temperature changes, the double-layer adhesive structure can adaptively compensate for gap changes, preventing the sealing surface from separating, thus providing a good long-term sealing effect.

[0058] In one specific embodiment, when the decorative body 210 includes a first bracket 211 and a second bracket 212, the first bracket 211 is sealed and bonded to the housing 100 by a fourth adhesive 280.

[0059] In another embodiment, the decorative component 200 may further include a fifth adhesive member 290, through which the lens 230 and the decorative component body 210 are bonded. Specifically, the lens 230 is bonded to at least one of the first support 211 and the second support 212 via the fifth adhesive member 290.

[0060] This solution can further improve the sealing performance of decorative component 200.

[0061] In another alternative solution, such as Figure 4 As shown, the transparent ring 220 is bonded and sealed to the second bracket 212 by the first adhesive 250; the transparent ring 220 is bonded and sealed to the housing 100 by the second adhesive 260; the first bracket 211 and the second bracket 212 are bonded and sealed by the third adhesive 270; the second bracket 212 and the housing 100 are bonded and sealed by the fourth adhesive 280; and the lens 230 is bonded and sealed to at least one of the first bracket 211 and the second bracket by the fifth adhesive 290. At this time, the sealing between the lens 230, the first bracket 211, the second bracket 212, the transparent ring 220, and the housing 100 is achieved through the first adhesive 250, the second adhesive 260, the third adhesive 270, the fourth adhesive, and the fifth adhesive 290, thus achieving a good sealing effect and achieving the IP68 waterproof rating of the electronic device.

[0062] Specifically, the first adhesive component 250, the second adhesive component 260 and the fifth adhesive component 290 can all be double-sided adhesive, the fourth adhesive component 280 can be glue, and the third adhesive component 270 can be an adhesive structure combining glue and double-sided adhesive.

[0063] In one embodiment, the distance between the annular textured surface 2101 and the central axis of the decorative body 210 gradually increases in the direction from the decorative body 210 to the housing 100. The direction from the decorative body 210 to the housing 100 can be the thickness direction of the decorative component 200 or the housing 100. The gradual increase in the distance between the annular textured surface 2101 and the central axis of the decorative body 210 can be understood as the angle between the second surface 222 and the annular textured surface 2101 being an obtuse angle. In this design, the annular textured surface 2101 forms a certain tilt angle, making it easier for the annular textured surface 2101 to be closer to the outside, thus making it easier for the user to see and further improving the appearance.

[0064] Furthermore, the inner ring surface of the transparent ring 220 can be a third surface 223, which can be positioned opposite to the annular textured surface 2101. The angle between the third surface 223 and the second surface 222 can be a first angle, which is an obtuse angle. In this case, the second surface 222 is a reference surface, so it can be a horizontal surface. The angle between the third surface 223 and the second surface 222 is obtuse, therefore the third surface 223 is inclined towards the decorative component body 210. Since the annular textured surface 2101 and the third surface 223 have the same inclination direction, they can be arranged parallel to each other. This allows for a larger gap between the annular textured surface 2101 and the third surface 223, preventing scratches and ensuring the overall appearance of the decorative component 200.

[0065] In another alternative embodiment, the outer surface of the transparent ring 220 can be a fourth surface 224, and the angle between the fourth surface 224 and the second surface 222 can be a second angle, which is an acute angle. In this case, the fourth surface 224 is inclined toward the decorative body 210. In this solution, the fourth surface 224 is inclined toward the decorative body 210, thereby forming an outwardly expanding slope, which effectively expands the visible range of the transparent ring 220. Therefore, the area where the user can observe the internal annular texture surface 2101 is larger, resulting in a better visual experience.

[0066] In the above scheme, the fourth surface 224 of the transparent ring 220 can be the visible area of ​​the transparent ring 220. Alternatively, the annular covering area 2102 covers part of the first surface 221, so the uncovered parts of the fourth surface 224 and the first surface 221 are the visible areas of the transparent ring 220.

[0067] In another alternative embodiment, the annular textured surface 2101 may have multiple second protrusions 21011, which may be arranged at intervals along the circumference of the decorative body 210. In this case, the annular textured surface 2101 forms a toothed texture structure. Of course, the annular textured surface 2101 is not limited to a toothed texture structure, but may also have other texture structures, which are not limited herein.

[0068] In one approach, such as Figure 1 As shown, an assembly gap can be provided between the transparent ring 220 and the first bracket 211. In this case, a certain gap is left between the outer transparent ring 220 and the inner first bracket 211 to ensure that the transparent ring 220 is not scratched during assembly, thus avoiding the risk of the transparent ring 220 being scratched. This also prevents the transparent ring 220 and the first bracket 211 from sticking together, thus avoiding the risk of marks on the inner surface of the transparent ring 220. Furthermore, the assembly gap between the transparent ring 220 and the first bracket 211 also allows for assembly tolerances between the transparent ring 220 and the first bracket 211, avoiding the risk of misalignment during assembly.

[0069] In one approach, such as Figure 12 As shown, the transparent ring 220 and the first support 211 can be integrally injection molded. Specifically, the transparent ring 220 and the first support 211 can be integrally injection molded using a nano-injection molding process. This solution helps reduce the number of parts, thus offering advantages in dustproof and waterproof structures.
