Description

Technical Field

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

[0002] With the rapid development of electronic technology, portable electronic devices such as smartphones and tablets have become indispensable tools in people's lives and work, and their functionality and appearance design have been greatly improved.

[0003] In the structural design of related electronic devices, to balance aesthetic integrity and overall protection, decorative elements are typically mounted on the front or back of the device, concealing the camera assembly within these elements. This structure effectively shields the camera components, preventing direct exposure and thus enhancing the visual consistency of the electronic device while also providing some scratch protection for the camera assembly.

[0004] However, at the same time, the camera assembly generates a significant amount of heat during high-resolution shooting and video recording. Due to the obstruction and coverage by the decorative elements, the heat generated by the camera assembly easily accumulates in the narrow space between the decorative elements and the camera assembly, or is directly conducted to the decorative elements, causing the temperature of the area where the camera assembly and the decorative elements are located to rise rapidly. This heat cannot dissipate in time, thus creating a heat dissipation bottleneck and resulting in poor heat dissipation performance of the camera assembly. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this application is to provide an electronic device that can solve the technical problem of poor heat dissipation performance of the camera component in the electronic device.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this application is implemented as follows: This application discloses an electronic device, including: A housing assembly having an inner cavity, the housing assembly including a housing and a decorative element, the housing having a mounting hole, and the decorative element being mounted in the mounting hole; A camera assembly, wherein the camera assembly is located in the inner cavity and is disposed opposite to the decorative element; The decorative component has at least one first connecting channel and at least one second connecting channel. The first end of the first connecting channel is connected to the camera assembly, and the second end of the first connecting channel is connected to the inner cavity. The first end of the second connecting channel is connected to the inner cavity, and the second end of the second connecting channel is connected to the external environment.

[0007] In this embodiment, the first end of the first connecting channel is connected to the camera assembly, and the second end is connected to the inner cavity of the housing assembly. Hot air and humid vapor generated by the camera assembly can flow into the inner cavity through the first connecting channel. The second end of the second connecting channel is connected to the inner cavity, and the first end of the second connecting channel is connected to the external environment. The humid and hot airflow that gathers in the inner cavity can then be discharged outwards through the second connecting channel. The electronic device disclosed in this application utilizes the first and second connecting channels on the decorative component to construct a complete airflow circulation path connecting the camera assembly, the inner cavity, and the external atmosphere. At this time, the first and second connecting channels work together to achieve the discharge of heat generated by the camera assembly and the continuous replenishment of dry, cold air from the outside, thereby effectively breaking the sealed space of the original enclosed cavity and effectively improving the heat dissipation performance of the camera assembly.

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] In related technologies, to enhance the overall integrity and aesthetics of electronic devices, decorative elements (such as covers or lenses) are typically placed on the back or front of the device, concealing the camera assembly beneath them. This design effectively shields the internal components of the camera assembly, preventing exposed parts and improving the overall visual uniformity and protection of the device.

[0013] However, at the same time, the camera assembly generates a significant amount of heat during high-resolution shooting and video recording. Due to the obstruction and coverage by the decorative elements, the heat generated by the camera assembly easily accumulates in the narrow space between the decorative elements and the camera assembly, or is directly conducted to the decorative elements, causing the temperature of the area where the camera assembly and the decorative elements are located to rise rapidly. This heat cannot dissipate in time, thus creating a heat dissipation bottleneck and resulting in poor heat dissipation performance of the camera assembly.

[0014] In related technologies, the heat dissipation performance of camera components is poor, which can easily lead to excessively high internal temperatures, resulting in decreased image quality and device stability, and consequently affecting the shooting performance of electronic devices.

[0015] Furthermore, the heat generated by the camera assembly tends to accumulate below or be conducted onto the decorative element, which can easily lead to an increase in temperature on the decorative element. Additionally, in areas with significant temperature differences, the light-transmitting areas of the decorative element are prone to fogging. Fogging in these areas reduces light transmission performance, thus affecting the shooting performance of the camera assembly in electronic devices.

[0016] Therefore, the heat dissipation performance of camera components in electronic devices in related technologies is poor, which can easily lead to poor reliability of the shooting performance of electronic devices.

[0017] 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.

[0018] Please refer to Figures 1 to 23 This application discloses an electronic device, which includes a housing assembly and a camera assembly 200.

[0019] The housing assembly is the exterior component of an electronic device and also provides a mounting base for other components of the electronic device. The housing assembly has an inner cavity 101, which is the space within the housing assembly for mounting the functional devices of the electronic device. For example, components such as the circuit board 700, motherboard bracket 600, and camera assembly 200 are mounted in the inner cavity 101. The housing assembly includes a housing 100 and a decorative element 300. The housing 100 has mounting holes 103, and the decorative element 300 is mounted in the mounting holes 103. The mounting holes 103 are formed on the housing wall of the housing 100 to expose some functional devices. In this application, the mounting hole 103 is used to expose the camera assembly 200.

[0020] The aforementioned inner cavity 101 can be understood as the internal space of the housing 100, therefore the mounting hole 103 is connected to the inner cavity 101. Alternatively, it can be understood that the mounting hole 103 is connected to the internal space of the housing 100, and the decorative element 300 is mounted on the mounting hole 103. The decorative element 300 and the internal space of the housing 100 enclose the inner cavity 101, meaning the inner surface of the decorative element 300 forms part of the inner wall of the inner cavity 101. This document does not limit the specific forming method of the inner cavity 101. The decorative element 300 is mounted on the mounting hole 103, which can be understood as a portion of the decorative element 300 being inserted into the mounting hole 103, while the remaining portion is connected to the outer surface of the housing 100, and the decorative element 300 covering the mounting hole 103.

[0021] In one embodiment, the housing 100 may include a frame 110 and a back cover 120, where the back cover 120 can also be understood as a battery cover, and the back cover 120 is connected to one side of the frame 110. The frame 110, the decorative element 300, and the back cover 120 enclose the aforementioned inner cavity 101. This can be understood as the decorative element 300, the frame 110, and the back cover 120 forming a cavity structure, which is the inner cavity 101. The display screen of the electronic device in this application may be located on the side of the frame 110 opposite to the back cover 120. In this case, the inner cavity 101 may be formed by the decorative element 300, the frame 110, the back cover 120, and the display screen.

[0022] In another embodiment, the housing 100 may include a front cover, a frame, and a rear cover 120, with the frame located between the front cover and the rear cover 120. The decorative element 300, the frame, the front cover, and the rear cover 120 together enclose the aforementioned inner cavity 101. Here, the frame and the front cover form the aforementioned frame 110. 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 document does not impose any limitations on this.

[0023] The decorative element 300 is mounted on the mounting hole 103 in the housing 100. Specifically, this can be understood as at least a portion of the decorative element 300 being located inside or outside the mounting hole 103. Regardless of whether the decorative element 300 is inside or outside the mounting hole 103, it must cover the mounting hole 103. Optionally, the mounting hole 103 can be located on the rear cover 120, in which case the decorative element 300 is disposed on the rear cover 120 and serves to obscure and decorate the rear camera assembly 200. In some designs, the mounting hole 103 is not limited to the rear cover 120 but can also be located on the front cover, in which case the decorative element 300 serves to obscure and decorate the front camera assembly 200.

[0024] The camera assembly 200 is used to realize the shooting function of the electronic device. The camera assembly 200 is disposed in the inner cavity 101 and is positioned opposite the decorative element 300 through the mounting hole 103. At this time, the lens of the camera assembly 200 is opposite to the light-transmitting area on the decorative element 300. Light from the external environment enters the lens through the light-transmitting area on the decorative element 300 to realize the shooting function. Here, the camera assembly 200 can be fixedly installed in the inner cavity 101. In some other embodiments, the camera assembly 200 can be directly connected to the decorative element 300, or it can be indirectly connected to the decorative element 300 through other components.

[0025] In this application, the decorative component 300 is provided with at least one first connecting channel 301 and at least one second connecting channel 302. The first end of the first connecting channel 301 is connected to the camera assembly 200, and the second end of the first connecting channel 301 is connected to the inner cavity 101. Optionally, the first end of the first connecting channel 301 can be positioned opposite to the camera assembly 200, and the second end of the first connecting channel 301 can be connected to the inner cavity 101. In this case, the first end of the first connecting channel 301 can be located in the area where the camera assembly 200 is located, thus connecting with the area where the camera assembly 200 is located. The area where the camera assembly 200 is located can be understood as the narrow space between the decorative component 300 and the camera assembly 200. In this case, gas convection can be achieved between the area where the camera assembly 200 is located and the inner cavity 101 through the first connecting channel 301, thereby reducing the heat in the area where the camera assembly 200 is located and preventing heat accumulation in the area where the camera assembly 200 is located and on the decorative component 300. Of course, the first end of the first connecting channel 301 can also be connected to the internal space of the camera assembly 200, so as to realize heat exchange between the inside of the camera assembly 200 and the inside of the electronic device, ensuring rapid heat dissipation of the camera assembly 200, thereby avoiding the accumulation of heat in the area where the camera assembly 200 is located and on the decorative part 300.

[0026] Furthermore, the heat from the camera assembly 200 flows into the inner cavity 101. Since heat dissipates slowly in the inner cavity 101, it tends to accumulate there. Therefore, in this application, the first end of the second connecting channel 302 is connected to the inner cavity 101, and the second end of the second connecting channel 302 can be connected to the external environment. At this time, the heat dissipation path of the hot air generated by the camera assembly 200 is as follows: first connecting channel 301 - inner cavity 101 - second connecting channel 302 - external environment. Therefore, the hot air and humid steam generated by the operation of the camera assembly 200 flow into the inner cavity 101 through the first connecting channel 301. The first end of the second connecting channel 302 connects to the inner cavity 101, and the second end of the second connecting channel 302 connects to the external environment. The humid and hot airflow that gathers in the inner cavity 101 can then be discharged outwards through the second connecting channel 302. Of course, cold airflow from the external environment can also sequentially flow through the second connecting channel 302, the inner cavity 101, and the first connecting channel 301 to cool the camera assembly 200. In this application, the second end of the first connecting channel 301 is close to the first end of the second connecting channel 302, thereby making it easier for the hot airflow entering the inner cavity 101 to enter the second connecting channel 302. The distance between the second end of the first connecting channel 301 and the first end of the second connecting channel 302 can be flexibly set according to actual working conditions, and this is not limited herein.

[0027] In the embodiments disclosed in this application, the electronic device constructs a complete airflow circulation path connecting the camera assembly 200, the inner cavity 101, and the outside atmosphere through the first connecting channel 301 and the second connecting channel 302 on the decorative component 300. At this time, the first connecting channel 301 and the second connecting channel 302 work together to realize the heat generated by the camera assembly 200 to be discharged to the outside and the continuous supply of dry and cold air from the outside, thereby effectively breaking the sealed space of the original closed cavity volume thermal condensation fog, thus effectively improving the heat dissipation performance of the camera assembly 200.

[0028] In the embodiments disclosed in this application, the heat generated by the camera assembly 200 can be quickly dissipated outside the housing 100 through the first connecting channel 301 and the second connecting channel 302, or the cold air outside the housing 100 can enter the camera assembly 200 or the area where the camera assembly 200 is located through the first connecting channel 301 and the second connecting channel 302. This avoids the heat generated by the camera assembly 200 from accumulating below the decorative part 300 or being transferred to the decorative part 300, thereby avoiding the risk of the camera assembly 200's internal temperature being too high, which could lead to a decrease in the imaging quality and device stability of the camera assembly 200.

[0029] Furthermore, the first connecting channel 301 and the second connecting channel 302 can avoid the risk of heat accumulation in the camera assembly 200, thus avoiding the risk of high temperature in the decorative part 300, and consequently avoiding the risk of fogging in the light-transmitting area of ​​the decorative part 300. Therefore, the electronic device disclosed in this application can avoid the risk of fogging in the light-transmitting area of ​​the decorative part 300, thereby ensuring the light transmission performance of the light-transmitting area of ​​the decorative part 300, and thus is less likely to affect the shooting performance of the camera assembly 200, thereby improving the shooting effect of the electronic device.

[0030] Of course, the electronic device disclosed in this application can also avoid the risk of fogging on the lens of the camera assembly 200.

[0031] The electronic device disclosed in this application not only improves the heat dissipation performance of the camera assembly 200, avoiding the risk of performance degradation, but also avoids the risk of fogging on the decorative part 300 due to the influence of the camera assembly 200. Therefore, the electronic device disclosed in this application has more reliable shooting performance, thereby further improving the usability of the electronic device.

[0032] In addition to discharging the hot and humid airflow from the camera assembly 200 to the inner cavity 101, the second connecting channel 302 can also simultaneously dissipate the heat accumulated by other functional components inside the electronic device during operation. For example, components such as the motherboard and driver chip continuously generate heat during operation. After the heat diffuses into the inner cavity 101, it can be discharged to the external environment through the second connecting channel 302 along with the circulating airflow in the inner cavity 101. Therefore, the airflow circulation loop formed by the first connecting channel 301 and the second connecting channel 302 can effectively dissipate heat from multiple heat sources throughout the device, preventing the accumulation of heat from multiple components. This is beneficial for further optimizing the internal thermal balance of the device and comprehensively improving the heat dissipation performance of the electronic device.

[0033] In the above scheme, the second end of each first connecting channel 301 can correspond to the first end of multiple second connecting channels 302, that is, one first connecting channel 301 can correspond to multiple second connecting channels 302. Alternatively, multiple first connecting channels 301 can correspond to one second connecting channel 302. Of course, one first connecting channel 301 can also correspond to one second connecting channel 302.

[0034] In some solutions, there can be multiple camera components 200, and correspondingly multiple first connecting channels 301 and second connecting channels 302. For example, each camera component 200 can be connected to one first connecting channel 301, and each first connecting channel 301 can be connected to one second connecting channel 302. Alternatively, each camera component 200 can be connected to multiple first connecting channels 301. Each first connecting channel 301 can also be connected to multiple second connecting channels 302. This paper does not limit the number of first connecting channels 301 and second connecting channels 302 connected to each camera component 200.

[0035] In an optional embodiment, the electronic device may further include a waterproof and breathable membrane 400. The waterproof and breathable membrane 400 may be disposed on the side of the decorative component 300 facing the inner cavity 101, and cover the second end of the first connecting channel 301 and the first end of the second connecting channel 302. In this solution, the waterproof and breathable membrane 400 covers the connection port between the first connecting channel 301 and the second connecting channel 302 and the inner cavity 101, allowing gas to freely pass through to complete the exchange of hot and cold air and dehumidification and heat dissipation. Liquid water droplets, splashing rainwater, and condensate are blocked by the waterproof and breathable membrane 400, preventing them from flowing back into the inner cavity 101 and the camera assembly 200 along the first connecting channel 301 and the second connecting channel 302. Therefore, under the premise of normal ventilation and heat dissipation, the reliable waterproof protection requirements of the entire device are achieved. In addition, a single waterproof and breathable membrane 400 simultaneously covers the second end of the first connecting channel 301 and the first end of the second connecting channel 302, thus eliminating the need to assemble independent waterproof and breathable membranes 400 for each of the two channels. This helps to reduce the number of sealing accessories, simplify the assembly process of the decorative component 300, and reduce mold and assembly costs. In addition, the waterproof and breathable membrane 400 micropores can buffer the impact of strong airflow from the outside airflow, and prevent the airflow from concentrating and directly impacting the devices, decorative parts 300 and lens in the inner cavity 101, thus avoiding the risk of device damage.

[0036] Alternatively, the waterproof and breathable membrane 400 can be made of materials such as polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and polyurethane. Of course, the waterproof and breathable membrane 400 can also be made of other waterproof and breathable materials, which is not limited in this article.

[0037] In other solutions, there can be multiple waterproof and breathable membranes 400, with the second end of each first connecting channel 301 and the first end of each second connecting channel 302 respectively attached to a corresponding waterproof and breathable membrane 400. Of course, in another solution, all first connecting channels 301 and all second connecting channels 302 can share the same waterproof and breathable membrane 400.

[0038] This application discloses a specific structure of a decorative element 300. Of course, the decorative element 300 can also have other structures, which are not limited herein. Specifically, the decorative element 300 may include a decorative element body 310, a first adhesive layer 320, and a lens 330. The decorative element body 310 is mounted in the mounting hole 103, and the lens 330 can be attached to the side of the decorative element body 310 facing away from the camera assembly 200 through the first adhesive layer 320. The decorative element body 310 may have a first through hole 3101 extending along its thickness direction. Here, the thickness direction of the decorative element body 310 can be the axial direction of the mounting hole 103, or it can be understood as the thickness direction of the electronic device. The first adhesive layer 320 has a second through hole 3201 opposite to the first through hole 3101. Here, the first through hole 3101, the second through hole 3201, and the area on the lens 330 opposite to the first through hole 3101 form the light-transmitting area of ​​the decorative element 300. This can also be understood as the viewing window area of ​​the decorative element 300. It is understandable that the camera assembly 200 is connected to the circumferential direction of the end of the first through hole 3101 facing the inner cavity 101, so that the camera assembly 200 is connected to the decorative piece 300.

[0039] In some embodiments of this application, a sealing member 340 may be provided on the side of the decorative body 310 facing the camera assembly 200. The sealing member 340 is disposed around the first through hole 3101 and is located between the camera assembly 200 and the decorative body 310. That is, the sealing member 340 is a part of the decorative body 310 and is disposed on the side of the decorative body 310 facing the inner cavity 101. In this case, the camera assembly 200 can be circumferentially sealed to the end of the decorative body 310 facing the inner cavity 101 through the sealing member 340. In this case, the first through hole 3101, the second through hole 3201, the lens 330, and the camera assembly 200 can be enclosed to form a receiving cavity 800. In some embodiments of this application, the sealing member 340 can be an independent structural member with a through hole opposite to the first through hole 3101. In this case, the first through hole 3101, the second through hole 3201, the lens 330, the sealing member 340, and the camera assembly 200 can be enclosed to form the aforementioned receiving cavity 800. The receiving cavity 800 here is used to receive the lens of the camera assembly 200. At this time, the lens is located inside the receiving cavity 800.

[0040] The first end of the first connecting channel 301 can be connected to the receiving cavity 800. At this time, the receiving cavity 800 is connected to the inner cavity 101 through the first connecting channel 301.

[0041] Specifically, the first through-hole 3101 and the second through-hole 3201 are connected, the lens 330 blocks the second through-hole 3201, and the camera assembly 200 blocks the first through-hole 3101. At this time, the receiving cavity 800 forms a cavity. This cavity is connected to the inner cavity 101 through the first connecting channel 301. The receiving cavity 800 here can also be understood as the viewing area of ​​the electronic device.

[0042] In this design, the viewing area forms a space, which is connected to the inner cavity 101 only through the first connecting channel 301. This helps prevent dust particles in the inner cavity 101 from entering the receiving cavity 800 outside the first connecting channel 301, thus further improving the cleanliness of the viewing area of ​​the electronic device and consequently enhancing shooting performance. Furthermore, the first connecting channel 301 is directly connected to the receiving cavity 800 that houses the lens, directly expelling hot air and moisture from the receiving cavity 800, further reducing the risk of fogging in the viewing area.

[0043] Optionally, when there are multiple camera components 200, there can also be multiple first through holes 3101 and second through holes 3201. Each camera component 200 corresponds to one first through hole 3101 and one second through hole 3201. Therefore, each camera component 200 is correspondingly enclosed to form a receiving cavity 800, and each receiving cavity 800 can correspond to one or more first connecting channels 301.

[0044] It is understood that the camera assembly 200 may include a camera housing and a lens assembly, with most of the lens assembly disposed inside the camera housing and part of it protruding from the camera housing; the seal 340 abuts against the camera housing and the decorative body 310 respectively, thereby forming a receiving cavity 800; the part of the lens assembly protruding from the camera housing is located within the receiving cavity 800.

[0045] In the above scheme, the first connecting channel 301 can be a straight channel.

[0046] In another optional embodiment, the first connecting channel 301 may include a first channel 3011 and a first connecting hole 3012. The decorative body 310 may have a first connecting hole 3012 extending through its thickness direction. The first channel 3011 connects the receiving cavity 800 and the first connecting hole 3012, and the first channel 3011 can communicate with the inner cavity 101 through the first connecting hole 3012. The first end of the first connecting channel 301 may be the port of the first channel 3011 opposite to the end of the first connecting hole 3012. The second end of the first connecting channel 301 may be the port of the first connecting hole 3012 opposite to the end of the first channel 3011.

[0047] In this design, the combined path of the first channel 3011 and the first connecting hole 3012 bypasses other interfering components in the inner cavity 101, achieving non-linear connectivity and making the overall structure more compact and the layout more rational. Simultaneously, the first channel 3011 and the first connecting hole 3012 can form a complete channel, thereby improving dustproof and waterproof performance.

[0048] Optionally, the axis of the first channel 3011 may intersect with the thickness direction of the decorative body 310. For example, the first channel 3011 may be a transverse channel, and the first channel 3011 may be perpendicular to the decorative body 310.

[0049] In some embodiments, when there are multiple first connecting channels 301, there can also be multiple first channels 3011 and first connecting holes 3012, with one first channel 3011 corresponding to one first connecting hole 3012. Of course, multiple first channels 3011 can also be connected to the same first connecting hole 3012. Therefore, it is also possible for multiple first channels 3011 to share the same first connecting hole 3012.

[0050] In other embodiments, the first channel 3011 connected to different camera components 200 may share the same first communication hole 3012.

[0051] Furthermore, the second connecting channel 302 may include a second channel 3021 and a second connecting hole 3022. The decorative body 310 may have a second connecting hole 3022 extending through its thickness direction. The second channel 3021 may connect the external environment to the second connecting hole 3022, and the second channel 3021 may connect to the inner cavity 101 through the second connecting hole 3022. The first end of the second connecting channel 302 may be the port of the second channel 3021 opposite to the second connecting hole 3022. The second end of the second connecting channel 302 may be the port of the second connecting hole 3022 opposite to the second channel 3021.

[0052] In this design, the combined path of the second channel 3021 and the second connecting hole 3022 bypasses other interfering components in the inner cavity 101, achieving non-linear connectivity and making the overall structure more compact and the layout more rational. Simultaneously, the second channel 3021 and the second connecting hole 3022 can form a complete channel, thereby improving dustproof and waterproof performance.

[0053] Optionally, the axis of the second channel 3021 may intersect with the thickness direction of the decorative body 310. For example, the second channel 3021 may be a transverse channel or perpendicular to the decorative body 310.

[0054] In some embodiments, when there are multiple second connecting channels 302, there can also be multiple second channels 3021 and second connecting holes 3022, with one second channel 3021 corresponding to one second connecting hole 3022. Of course, multiple second channels 3021 can also be connected to the same second connecting hole 3022. Therefore, multiple second channels 3021 can share the same second connecting hole 3022. In one embodiment, the first adhesive layer 320 is provided with a first through groove 3202 extending along its thickness direction. Here, the first through groove 3202 can be understood as a notch or gap structure penetrating the first adhesive layer 320. The lens 330, the first through groove 3202, and the decorative body 310 enclose to form a first channel 3011. The aforementioned first connecting hole 3012 can be opposite to the first through groove 3202 to achieve communication between the first channel 3011 and the first connecting hole 3012.

[0055] In this design, the first channel 3011 is directly formed by the first through groove 3202 of the first adhesive layer 320. The decorative part body 310 only needs to have the first connecting hole 3012. Therefore, it is beneficial to transform the complex channel structure into a simple through hole and through groove structure, thereby significantly reducing the manufacturing complexity of the decorative part 300. In addition, the first channel 3011 is a transverse channel, and the first connecting hole 3012 is a longitudinal channel. The transverse channel can be formed by the decorative part body 310, the first through groove 3202, and the lens 330, so a longer path can be set without increasing the thickness of the decorative part 300. Therefore, this application, through the combined design structure of through groove enclosure and opening, achieves a reduction in the forming difficulty of the first connecting channel 301 with extremely low processing cost while taking into account the small thickness of the decorative part 300.

[0056] Furthermore, a first groove 3102 may be formed on the side of the decorative body 310 facing the lens 330, and a first through groove 3202 may be opposite to and connected to the first groove 3102. In this case, the opening of the first groove 3102 is opposite to the first through groove 3202. One end of the first groove 3102 may be connected to the receiving cavity 800, and the other end of the first groove 3102 may be connected to the first connecting hole 3012. The lens 330, the first through groove 3202, and the first groove 3102 can be combined to form the aforementioned first channel 3011.

[0057] In this design, the first groove 3102 effectively widens the overall flow cross section of the first channel 3011, reduces the airflow resistance of the hot and humid air transport, accelerates the flow of heat and moisture generated by the camera component 200 into the inner cavity 101, and improves the heat dissipation and dehumidification efficiency; at the same time, the larger space of the first channel 3011 can accommodate a small amount of dust and impurities, prevent the first channel 3011 from becoming clogged, and maintain the ventilation capacity stably for a long time.

[0058] Optionally, the depth of the first groove 3102 can be flexibly set according to the actual working conditions, and this article does not impose any restrictions.

[0059] In the above embodiments, when there are multiple first connecting channels 301, there are also multiple corresponding structures such as first grooves 3102 and first through slots 3202. In this case, one first through slot 3202 and one first groove 3102 can correspondingly form one first channel 3011.

[0060] In another embodiment, the first adhesive layer 320 may have a second through groove 3203 extending through its thickness direction. The second through groove 3203 can be understood as a notch or notch structure penetrating the first adhesive layer 320. The lens 330, the second through groove 3203, and the decorative body 310 together form a second channel 3021. The aforementioned second connecting hole 3022 may be opposite to the second through groove 3203 to achieve communication between the second channel 3021 and the second connecting hole 3022.

[0061] In this design, the second channel 3021 is directly formed from the second through groove 3203 of the first adhesive layer 320. The decorative part body 310 only needs to have a second connecting hole 3022. Therefore, it is beneficial to transform the complex channel structure into a simple through hole and through groove structure, thereby significantly reducing the manufacturing complexity of the decorative part 300. In addition, the second channel 3021 is a transverse channel, and the second connecting hole 3022 is a longitudinal channel. The transverse channel can be formed by the decorative part body 310, the second through groove 3203, and the lens 330, so a longer path can be set without increasing the thickness of the decorative part 300. Therefore, this application, through the combined design structure of through groove enclosure and opening, achieves a reduction in the forming difficulty of the second connecting channel 302 with extremely low processing cost while taking into account the small thickness of the decorative part 300.

[0062] Furthermore, a second groove 3103 may be formed on the side of the decorative component body 310 facing the lens 330. A second through groove 3203 may be opposite to and connected to the second groove 3103, with the openings of the second through groove 3203 and the second groove 3103 facing each other. One end of the second groove 3103 may be connected to the external environment, and the other end may be connected to the second connecting hole 3022. The lens 330, the second through groove 3203, and the second groove 3103 may be combined to form the aforementioned second channel 3021.

[0063] In this design, the second groove 3103 effectively widens the overall flow cross section of the second channel 3021, reduces the airflow resistance of the hot and humid air transport, accelerates the flow of heat and moisture generated by the camera component 200 into the inner cavity 101, and improves the heat dissipation and dehumidification efficiency; at the same time, the larger space of the second channel 3021 can accommodate a small amount of dust and impurities, prevent the second channel 3021 from becoming clogged, and maintain the ventilation capacity stably for a long time.

[0064] Optionally, the depth of the second groove 3103 can be flexibly set according to the actual working conditions, and this article does not impose any restrictions.

[0065] The aforementioned waterproof and breathable membrane 400 covers the port at one end of the first connecting hole 3012 and the second connecting hole 3022 that are connected to the inner cavity 101.

[0066] In the above scheme, when there are multiple second connecting channels 302, there are also multiple structures such as second grooves 3103 and second through slots 3203. In this case, one second through slot 3203 and one second groove 3103 can form one second channel 3021.

[0067] In another embodiment, the decorative body 310 may include a main body 311, a heat-conducting element 312, a heat-conducting sleeve 313, and a metal decorative part 314. The main body 311 may be connected to the housing 100. The heat-conducting element 312 may be stacked on the side of the main body 311 facing the lens 330. The metal decorative part 314 is stacked on the edge of the side of the main body 311 facing the lens 330 and extends circumferentially along the main body 311. The main body 311 may have a third through hole 3113 extending along its thickness direction, and at least a portion of the heat-conducting sleeve 313 may be installed in the third through hole 3113. The heat-conducting sleeve 313 may have a first sub-hole 313a extending along the thickness direction of the decorative body 310, and the heat-conducting element 312 may have a second sub-hole 312a extending along the thickness direction of the decorative body 310. The first sub-hole 313a and the second sub-hole 312a are opposite to and connected to each other, and the first sub-hole 313a and the second sub-hole 312a can be connected to form the first through hole 3101 mentioned above. That is, the first sub-hole 313a and the second sub-hole 312a are connected to form the first through hole 3101 mentioned above. Among them, the heat-conducting component 312 is connected to both the metal decorative part 314 and the heat-conducting sleeve 313. At this time, the heat-conducting component 312 can be directly connected to the metal decorative part 314 and the heat-conducting sleeve 313, for example, by direct contact or direct snap-fit. Alternatively, the heat-conducting component 312 can be indirectly connected to the metal decorative part 314 and the heat-conducting sleeve 313 through thermally conductive silicone or a thermally conductive layer. The metal decorative part 314 mentioned above can be understood as being fitted onto the outer wall of the decorative part 300.

[0068] In this design, the heat-conducting component 312 is simultaneously connected to the heat-conducting sleeve 313 and the metal decorative part 314, forming a complete heat conduction and dissipation circuit. The heat-conducting sleeve 313 constitutes the main hole wall structure of the receiving cavity 800, directly contacting the hot airflow inside the receiving cavity 800 over a large area. The heat generated by the operation of the camera component 200 will preferentially collect in the heat-conducting sleeve 313, becoming the core heat collection carrier. The heat is transferred to the heat-conducting component 312 through the heat-conducting sleeve 313. On the one hand, it is diverted to the exposed metal decorative part 314 for outward diffusion, effectively reducing the temperature rise of the cavity; on the other hand, the heat-conducting component 312 can use the residual heat conducted to uniformly assist in heating the back of the lens 330, reducing the temperature difference between the inside and outside of the lens 330, suppressing fogging of the lens 330 from the source, and further reducing the risk of fogging of the lens 330.

[0069] In addition, the metal decorative part 314 simultaneously achieves both appearance decoration and auxiliary heat dissipation. The entire structure does not require additional heat dissipation accessories, and the assembly and positioning are simple. While stabilizing the airflow channel and improving heat dissipation and anti-fogging performance, it simplifies the layout of parts and takes into account both the processability and structural durability.

[0070] In the above scheme, the heat-conducting component 312 and the heat-conducting sleeve 313 can be made of metal materials with good thermal conductivity, such as copper, aluminum, iron, steel, etc. Of course, the heat-conducting component 312 and the heat-conducting sleeve 313 can also be made of other materials, which are not limited in this article.

[0071] Furthermore, the heat-conducting element 312 and the heat-conducting sleeve 313 can be made of metal. The first through hole 3101 is formed on the heat-conducting element 312 and the heat-conducting sleeve 313, which are made of metal. Metal is dense and does not absorb or trap water. Therefore, the inner wall of the first through hole 3101 is metal, thus completely eliminating the source of moisture release from the inner wall of the first through hole 3101, and fundamentally solving the fogging problem caused by material properties. In addition, the thermal conductivity of metal is much higher than that of plastic. When there is a temperature difference between the inside and outside of the decorative part 300 (such as in an alternating hot and cold environment), the metal can quickly conduct heat, so that the temperature of the inner wall of the first through hole 3101 quickly balances with the ambient temperature, thereby eliminating the condensation phenomenon caused by temperature difference and preventing the risk of water vapor condensing into fog on the lens 330 or the inner wall of the first through hole 3101. In some embodiments of this application, the main body 311 can be a plastic part.

[0072] In one embodiment, the main body 311, the heat-conducting component 312, the heat-conducting sleeve 313, and the metal decorative part 314 can be an integral cast structural component. In this case, the main body 311, the heat-conducting component 312, the heat-conducting sleeve 313, and the metal decorative part 314 can be manufactured using a two-color injection molding process.

[0073] In another alternative embodiment, the main body 311, the heat-conducting component 312, the heat-conducting sleeve 313, and the metal decorative part 314 can be separately disposed. In this case, the main body 311 can be a plastic structural component. The heat-conducting component 312, the heat-conducting sleeve 313, and the metal decorative part 314 can be formed from metal materials. Then, the main body 311, the heat-conducting component 312, the heat-conducting sleeve 313, and the metal decorative part 314 are assembled separately to form the decorative part body 310.

[0074] Optionally, the aforementioned third through hole 3113 can be a stepped hole, and the outer surface of the heat-conducting sleeve 313 can be matched with the stepped hole with a stepped surface. In this case, the main body 311 and the heat-conducting sleeve 313 can be matched through the stepped hole and the stepped surface.

[0075] It is understood that in some embodiments of this application, the end of the heat-conducting sleeve 313 near the heat-conducting component 312 has a protrusion, the protrusion has a first sub-hole 313a, and the protrusion and the hole wall of the third through hole 3113 form a filling groove, which can be filled with thermally conductive and waterproof adhesive, and the heat-conducting component 312 is bonded to the heat-conducting sleeve 313 by the thermally conductive and waterproof adhesive.

[0076] In an alternative embodiment, the camera assembly 200 can be sealed to the main body 311 or the thermally conductive sleeve 313 via the aforementioned seal 340.

[0077] In one embodiment, the heat-conducting component 312 may include a base 3121, which may have a second sub-hole 312a and may be stacked on the surface of the main body 311 facing the lens 330.

[0078] In another embodiment, a first receiving groove 3116 may be formed on the surface of the main body 311 facing the lens 330, and a third through hole 3113 may be provided at the bottom of the first receiving groove 3116. At least a portion of the base 3121 may be located within the first receiving groove 3116. In this solution, the base 3121 is embedded in the first receiving groove 3116, and the thickness of the heat-conducting component 312 itself is contained within the main body 311, eliminating the need for external stacking and saving the space required for the heat-conducting component 312 to protrude outward, effectively compressing the overall axial thickness of the decorative component 300. This allows the end faces of each part to fit tightly without redundant assembly gaps, and the lens 330 can be directly assembled and attached to the surface of the main body 311 without the need for additional shims, achieving a thin and light layout for the decorative component 300.

[0079] In addition, the base 3121 of the heat-conducting component 312 is embedded inside the first receiving groove 3116, and radial positioning is achieved by relying on the groove wall of the first receiving groove 3116. The second sub-hole 312a is automatically aligned with the first sub-hole 313a of the heat-conducting sleeve 313 in the third through hole 3113 at the bottom of the groove. No additional positioning tooling is required, ensuring that all areas of the receiving cavity 800 are coaxial throughout, the air passage is unobstructed and there is no deviation, and the airflow for ventilation and heat dissipation will not be turbulent or blocked.

[0080] In one embodiment, the first channel 3011 is formed by the first through groove 3202, the area of ​​the base 3121 opposite to the first through groove 3202, and the area of ​​the main body 311 opposite to the first through groove 3202. A first connecting hole 3012 may be formed on the main body 311. In another alternative embodiment, the main body 311 has a first recess 31101 located on the bottom of the first receiving groove 3116 and a second recess 31102 located outside the first receiving groove 3116 on the side facing the lens 330.

[0081] A third recess 31211a is provided on the side of the base 3121 facing the lens 330. This third recess 31211a can be formed by stamping and bending a local area of ​​the base 3121. For example, a local area of ​​the base 3121 is stamped to form a bent first recess 31211 on the side away from the lens 330. The first recess 31211 protrudes from the plane of the base 3121 on the side away from the lens 330 and protrudes toward the main body 311. The aforementioned third recess 31211a is formed on the first recess 31211.

[0082] The first recess 31211 is engaged with the first recess 31101. The first recess 31211 is located within the first recess 31101.

[0083] The second recess 31102 is connected to the third recess 31211a. This can be understood as the third recess 31211a penetrating the base 3121 radially along the second sub-hole 312a. Specifically, the end of the third recess 31211a closest to the second sub-hole 312a has no sidewall and is connected to the second sub-hole 312a. The side of the third recess 31211a furthest from the second sub-hole 312a also has no sidewall and is connected to one end of the second recess 31102. Therefore, the second sub-hole 312a is connected to the second recess 31102 through the third recess 31211a.

[0084] The second recess 31102 can connect with the third recess 31211a to form a first groove 3102, which can be used to form at least a portion of the first connecting channel 301. This first groove 3102 can enclose and form the aforementioned first channel 3011. The first connecting hole 3012 can be formed on the main body 311 and communicate with the second recess 31102.

[0085] In this design, the second recess 31102 and the third recess 31211a form the aforementioned first groove 3102. The first groove 3102 effectively widens the overall flow cross-section of the first channel 3011, reduces the airflow resistance of hot and humid air transport, accelerates the flow of heat and moisture generated by the camera component 200 into the inner cavity 101, and improves heat dissipation and dehumidification efficiency. At the same time, the larger space of the first channel 3011 can accommodate trace amounts of dust and impurities, preventing the first channel 3011 from becoming clogged and maintaining stable ventilation capacity over a long period. In addition, the third recess 31211a, which is stamped from the base 3121, is embedded in the first recess 31101 at the bottom of the groove. The radial locking is achieved by the interlocking of the concave and convex structures. The second sub-hole 312a automatically and precisely aligns with the first sub-hole 313a of the heat-conducting sleeve 313. No positioning pins or double-sided adhesive are required throughout the process, which simplifies batch assembly operations, prevents airflow blockage caused by channel misalignment, and ensures that the heat-conducting component 312 will not slip under heat and vibration during long-term use, thus maintaining stable airflow dimensions. Therefore, the assembly reliability of decorative part 300 is further improved.

[0086] In some embodiments, when there are multiple first connecting channels 301, there are multiple first recesses 31101, second recesses 31102, and third recesses 31211a. In this case, a third recess 31211a is located within its corresponding first recess 31101 and is connected to its corresponding second recess 31102. Figure 16 As shown, the base 3121 has a first recess 31101, a second recess 31102 and a third recess 31211a respectively on opposite sides, and the first recess 31101, the second recess 31102 and the third recess 31211a on the same side are respectively provided.

[0087] In other embodiments, the number of heat-conducting elements 312 may also be multiple, and each heat-conducting element 312 may correspond to one camera assembly 200.

[0088] In an alternative embodiment, the second groove 3103 and the second connecting hole 3022 used to form the second channel 3021 can both be formed on the main body 311.

[0089] In the above scheme, the metal decorative part 314, the heat-conducting part 312 and the heat-conducting sleeve 313 form a continuous metal conduction path. External static electricity can easily be conducted to the camera assembly 200 along this path, which can easily damage the precision optoelectronic devices inside the camera assembly 200.

[0090] Based on this, in another embodiment, the heat-conducting element 312 may further include a contact spring 3122, which may be connected to the base 3121, and may be located between the metal decorative part 314 and the main body 311, and may abut against the inner surface of the metal decorative part 314.

[0091] The electronic device may also include a bracket 600 and a circuit board 700, both of which can be located within the inner cavity 101. The circuit board 700 may be located on the side of the bracket 600 opposite to the decorative element 300. The bracket 600 may be provided with a conductive element 610, and the base 3121 can be electrically connected to the circuit board 700 through the conductive element 610. In this case, the base 3121 can be electrically connected to the ground of the circuit board 700 through the conductive element 610.

[0092] In this design, the heat-conducting component 312 is equipped with a contact spring 3122 connected to the base 3121. The contact spring 3122 is sandwiched between the metal decorative part 314 and the main body 311 and elastically abuts against the inner wall of the metal decorative part 314. The inner cavity 101 is arranged with a bracket 600 and a circuit board 700 stacked behind the bracket 600. The bracket 600 is equipped with a conductive component 610. The base 3121 of the heat-conducting component 312 is connected to the ground terminal of the circuit board 700 through the conductive component 610, thus constructing a complete electrostatic discharge circuit. External static electricity is discharged from the metal decorative part 314 through the contact spring 3122, the heat-conducting component 312, and the conductive component 610 to the ground wire of the circuit board 700, preventing static electricity from entering the camera assembly 200 and achieving reliable electrostatic protection. In addition, the contact spring 3122 can adapt to assembly tolerances and thermal expansion deformation to maintain conductive contact for a long time.

[0093] Furthermore, multiple spaced-abutment protrusions 3122a can be provided on the surface of the contact spring 3122 facing the metal decorative part 314, allowing the contact spring 3122 to abut against the metal decorative part 314. In this design, multiple sets of spaced-abutment protrusions 3122a are provided on the side of the contact spring 3122 facing the metal decorative part 314, enabling the contact spring 3122 to make point contact with the inner wall of the metal decorative part 314 for conduction. The concentrated extrusion pressure of the protrusions can break through the oxide film on the metal surface, stably achieving low-impedance grounding. At the same time, the multi-point parallel structure forms redundant conductive paths, ensuring continuous connection of the electrostatic discharge circuit even under vibration and deformation conditions. In addition, the point contact structure has low assembly resistance, protecting the metal decorative surface coating. Meanwhile, the gaps between the abutment protrusions 3122a can drain moisture from the interlayer, preventing metal corrosion from affecting conductivity.

[0094] In the above scheme, in order to connect the conductive component 610 with the base 3121, the main body 311 may be provided with a clearance hole or clearance notch so that the conductive component 610 can contact the base 3121.

[0095] Optionally, the conductive element 610 can be a power feeding spring, one end of which can be soldered to the circuit board 700, and the other end of which can abut against the base 3121.

[0096] In some alternative embodiments, the conductive element 610 may include a conductive sheet, a power feed spring, and a connecting screw. The conductive sheet may be mounted on a bracket 600, and can be made of metal. The conductive sheet can be electrically connected to the circuit board 700, in which case the conductive sheet contacts the bare copper area on the circuit board 700, thereby achieving electrical conductivity. The connecting screw is used to connect the conductive sheet, the bracket 600, and the circuit board 700. The connecting screw is used to fasten the bracket 600 and the circuit board 700, thereby pressing the circuit board 700 and the conductive sheet together to achieve a reliable electrical connection between the circuit board 700 and the conductive sheet. The power feed spring may be soldered onto the conductive sheet, with the end of the power feed spring facing away from the conductive sheet abutting against the base 3121. In this case, the base 3121 is electrically connected to the circuit board 700 in sequence through the power feed spring and the conductive sheet. Of course, in some cases, the connecting screw can be in contact with both the conductive sheet and the circuit board 700. In this case, the connecting screw can also serve as a conductive path. Therefore, the conductive sheet and the connecting screw can both be electrically connected to the circuit board 700, forming a parallel conductive structure.

[0097] In another optional embodiment, the heat-conducting element 312 may further include a first bent portion 3123 and a second bent portion 3124 connected to the base 3121, and the contact spring 3122 may be located between the first bent portion 3123 and the second bent portion 3124. In this case, the first bent portion 3123 and the contact spring 3122, as well as the contact spring 3122 and the second bent portion 3124, can be separated by notches, and the first bent portion 3123, the contact spring 3122, and the second bent portion 3124 are arranged sequentially at intervals.

[0098] In this design, the first bend 3123 and the second bend 3124 can increase the contact area with the metal decorative part 314, thereby increasing the heat dissipation efficiency.

[0099] In another embodiment, such as Figure 18 As shown, the bottom wall of the first receiving groove 3116 near the edge of the metal decorative part 314 is provided with a first snap-fit ​​groove 3117a, a second snap-fit ​​groove 3117b and a third snap-fit ​​groove 3117c that are spaced apart.

[0100] The metal decorative part 314 includes a frame 3141 and a contact baffle 3142. The frame 3141 is stacked on the edge of the main body 311 facing the lens 330, and the contact baffle 3142 extends into the second snap-fit ​​groove 3117b.

[0101] The first bent portion 3123 can be located in the first locking groove 3117a; the contact spring 3122 can be located in the second locking groove 3117b and abut against the contact stop 3142; the second bent portion 3124 can be located in the third locking groove 3117c.

[0102] In this design, the first snap-fit ​​groove 3117a, the second snap-fit ​​groove 3117b, and the third snap-fit ​​groove 3117c can snap and limit the first bent portion 3123, the contact spring 3122, and the second bent portion 3124, thereby improving the assembly accuracy of the heat-conducting component 312 and the main body 311. It also avoids the risk of misalignment of the heat-conducting component 312, thereby improving the assembly reliability of the decorative component 300. In one embodiment, the bottom wall of the first receiving groove 3116, the base 3121, and the side wall of the first receiving groove 3116 enclose a first adhesive groove 3118 and a second adhesive groove 3119. The first adhesive groove 3118 and the second adhesive groove 3119 are located on both sides of the base 3121, and the first adhesive groove 3118 can be connected to the first snap-fit ​​groove 3117a, and the second adhesive groove 3119 can be connected to the third snap-fit ​​groove 3117c. At this time, the two opposite sidewalls of the first receiving groove 3116 may have notches on the side facing the metal decorative part 314, and the two opposite sidewalls of the base 3121 and the corresponding notches form the corresponding first glue groove 3118 and the second glue groove 3119.

[0103] A third adhesive groove 31212 is provided on the side of the base 3121 facing the lens 330. One end of the third adhesive groove 31212 can be connected to the first adhesive groove 3118, and the other end of the third adhesive groove 31212 can be connected to the second adhesive groove 3119. At this time, the first snap-fit ​​groove 3117a, the first adhesive groove 3118, the third adhesive groove 31212, the second adhesive groove 3119, and the third snap-fit ​​groove 3117c form an adhesive groove with a "U" or "C" shaped outline.

[0104] The decorative component 300 may also include thermally conductive adhesive, which can be filled in the first snap-fit ​​groove 3117a, the first adhesive groove 3118, the third adhesive groove 31212, the second adhesive groove 3119 and the third snap-fit ​​groove 3117c.

[0105] In this design, the sidewall of the first receiving groove 3116 and the sidewall of the base 3121 together form a first dispensing groove 3118 and a second dispensing groove 3119 located on both sides of the base 3121. The first dispensing groove 3118 and the second dispensing groove 3119 are respectively connected to the first snap-fit ​​groove 3117a and the third snap-fit ​​groove 3117c that receive the bent portion. At the same time, a third dispensing groove 31212 is opened laterally through the base 3121 on the side facing the lens 330. At this time, the third dispensing groove 31212 connects the two dispensing grooves in series, so that the snap-fit ​​groove and each level of dispensing groove are connected to form a closed loop flow channel, and the inside of the flow channel is filled with thermally conductive adhesive. At this point, the closed-loop connecting channel can be filled with adhesive in a single injection, ensuring smooth defoaming and eliminating any dead corners. The thermally conductive adhesive completely fills the gaps between the thermally conductive component 312, the main body 311, and the snap-fit ​​groove, eliminating the air insulation layer and creating a continuous and efficient thermal conduction path. This enhances the heat dissipation of the cavity and the auxiliary heating and anti-fogging effect of the lens 330. Furthermore, the cured thermally conductive adhesive bonds and limits the thermally conductive component 312 as a whole, resisting vibration and thermal expansion deformation and preventing displacement. Simultaneously, the adhesive path bypasses the second snap-fit ​​groove 3117b where the contact spring 3122 is placed, preventing the adhesive from impregnating and locking the contact spring 3122. The contact spring 3122 can then elastically abut against the metal decorative part 314 to maintain electrostatic grounding. Thermally conductive adhesive simultaneously seals all assembly gaps, preventing the 101 humid hot water vapor in the inner cavity from seeping into the interlayer and corroding the metal components. It also avoids the leakage of airflow and loss of ventilation efficiency. The entire structure completes multiple functions of thermal conductivity enhancement, structural fixation, and gap sealing in one go, and the assembly process is simple.

[0106] In one embodiment, the lens 330 may be provided with at least one first opening 306. The second end of at least one second communication channel 302 may be connected to the external environment through at least one first opening 306.

[0107] In this design, the first opening 306 is located on the lens 330, which helps to reduce the distance of the second connecting channel 302. This allows hot air to be discharged to the external environment more quickly, and also allows cold air from the external environment to enter the inner cavity 101 more quickly. Therefore, it helps to further improve the heat exchange efficiency.

[0108] In another embodiment, the decorative element body 310 has at least one second opening 305 on its side, where the side of the decorative element body 310 can be understood as the annular outer frame of the decorative element body 310. Optionally, the second opening 305 can be directly formed on the annular side outer frame of the decorative element body 310. Of course, the second opening 305 can also be formed by the assembly gap between the annular outer frame and the housing 100 or the back cover 120. Alternatively, the second opening 305 can also be formed by the assembly gap between the outer edge of the lens 330 and the annular outer frame.

[0109] In this design, the second opening 305 is located on the side of the decorative body 310, between the decorative body 310 and the back cover 120, thus improving concealment and further enhancing the appearance.

[0110] In one approach, such as Figure 12 As shown, the same second connecting channel 302 can be connected to both the first opening 306 and the second opening 305.

[0111] In another alternative solution, such as Figure 16 As shown, the accommodating cavity 800 may have a first connecting channel 301 and a second connecting channel 302 on both opposite sides. In this case, the first connecting channel 301 located on the upper or left side of the accommodating cavity 800 corresponds to the second connecting channel 302 located on the upper or left side of the accommodating cavity 800. The second connecting channel 302 located on the upper or left side of the accommodating cavity 800 can then connect to the external environment through the aforementioned first opening 306.

[0112] The first connecting channel 301 located on the lower or right side of the receiving cavity 800 corresponds to the second connecting channel 302 located on the lower or right side of the receiving cavity 800. At this time, the second connecting channel 302 located on the lower or right side of the receiving cavity 800 can be connected to the external environment through the second opening 305 mentioned above.

[0113] In one embodiment, the housing 100 may be provided with a heat-conducting portion 102, which has a second receiving groove 1021 and a third receiving groove 1022. The second receiving groove 1021 is arranged around the third receiving groove 1022. The second receiving groove 1021 may be filled with a first heat-conducting material 910, and the third receiving groove 1022 may be provided with a second heat-conducting material 920. The bottom of the camera assembly 200 can be connected to the heat-conducting portion 102 through the first heat-conducting material 910 and the second heat-conducting material 920.

[0114] In this design, the third receiving slot 1022 is close to the central heat source of the camera assembly 200, and the internal second thermal conductive material 920 directly adheres to the core heat-generating areas such as the chip and photosensitive module, quickly dissipating concentrated high heat. The outermost second receiving slot 1021 contains a first thermal conductive material 910 that surrounds the heat source, diverting and dissipating excess heat from the entire device. Therefore, the double-layered thermal conductive materials absorb heat in layers, preventing localized heat accumulation and the formation of high-temperature hotspots. This ensures uniform temperature throughout the camera assembly 200, significantly reducing the temperature difference within the cavity. Consequently, it reduces the generation of humid heat vapor at the source, improving the heat dissipation performance of the camera assembly 200 and further enhancing the anti-fogging effect.

[0115] In addition, the heat-conducting part 102 is an integral part of the shell 100, and the shell 100 is reused as a heat dissipation carrier. There is no need to add independent components such as heat dissipation copper plates and aluminum blocks, which reduces the number of parts, simplifies the internal layout, and does not occupy the space of the air exchange channel and the inner cavity 101, ensuring that the airflow circulation path is complete and unobstructed.

[0116] Optionally, the heat-conducting part 102 can be a metal component on the housing 100, such as a metal frame 110, a metal front cover, etc. Alternatively, it can be other heat-conducting components within the housing 100, such as the support portion of the housing 100.

[0117] Optionally, the camera assembly 200 may include a camera body 210 and a conductive cloth 220. The camera body 210 includes, but is not limited to, components such as an image sensor and a lens. The conductive cloth 220 covers the bottom of the camera body 210. The bottom of the conductive cloth 220 can be connected to the heat-conducting part 102 via a first thermally conductive material 910 and a second thermally conductive material 920. The first thermally conductive material 910 and the second thermally conductive material 920 can be thermally conductive silicone or thermally conductive gel, or other thermally conductive materials; this is not limited to these.

[0118] In another optional embodiment, a dust-catching adhesive layer 930 may be provided within the first connecting channel 301, and the dust-catching adhesive layer 930 may be adhered to the inner wall of the first connecting channel 301. In this solution, the surface of the dust-catching adhesive layer 930 is adhesive, which can actively capture fine dust and lint flowing through the channel, thereby maintaining the cleanliness of the viewing area of ​​the decorative component 300 for a long time, improving the durability of the decorative component 300, and further improving the shooting reliability of the electronic device. The dust-catching adhesive layer 930 may be made of adhesive materials such as double-sided tape or glue.

[0119] In the above solution, the dust-catching adhesive layer 930 can be disposed within the first channel 3011. In this case, the thickness of the dust-catching adhesive layer 930 needs to be less than the depth of the first channel 3011. This can also be understood as the cross-sectional area of ​​the dust-catching adhesive layer 930 being smaller than the cross-sectional area of ​​the first channel 3011 in the direction perpendicular to the axis of the first channel 3011. This avoids the dust-catching adhesive layer 930 completely blocking the first channel 3011, thus preventing it from affecting the heat dissipation of the camera assembly 200.

[0120] In one embodiment, the dust-catching adhesive layer 930 can be applied to the side of the decorative body 310 facing the lens 330. The dust-catching adhesive layer 930 can be located on the bottom of the first groove 3102. In this case, the thickness of the dust-catching adhesive layer 930 needs to be less than the depth of the first groove 3102.

[0121] Of course, the second connecting channel 302 described above may also be provided with a dust-collecting adhesive layer 930. Specifically, the dust-collecting adhesive layer 930 may be attached to the bottom of the second groove 3103 described above.

[0122] 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.

The specific embodiments described above are merely illustrative and not restrictive. Those skilled in the art can make many other forms under the guidance of this application without departing from the spirit and scope of the claims, and all of these forms are within the protection scope of this application.
