[0044] Exemplary embodiments will be described in detail herein, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings. When the following description refers to the drawings, the same numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements unless otherwise indicated. The implementations described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all implementations consistent with the present disclosure. Instead, they are merely examples of devices and methods consistent with some aspects of the present disclosure as detailed in the claims.
[0045] With the increasing popularity of electronic devices, electronic devices have become an indispensable social tool and entertainment tool in people's daily life, and people's requirements for electronic devices are getting higher and higher. Taking mobile phones as an example, different users usually need to use a Subscriber Identity Module (SIM card), a memory card, or other card media that carries data in their mobile phones.
[0046] In the current related technologies, most card trays and card holders are ejector-type mechanisms. When removing the card tray, a card removal pin needs to be inserted into the pin hole of the electronic device to drive the relevant mechanical mechanism to eject the card tray. However, the method of removing the card using a card removal pin is rather cumbersome, and since the card removal pin is small in size and easy to lose, users generally do not carry a card removal pin with them, which is extremely inconvenient when they need to remove the card. In addition, opening a pin hole on an electronic device will destroy the appearance integrity of the electronic device, reduce the dustproof and waterproof performance of the electronic device, and pose a certain potential threat to the normal operation of the electronic device.
[0047] In order to solve the above technical problems, a card tray assembly and an electronic device are provided according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.
[0048] The card tray assembly disclosed in the present invention may include a carrier; a card seat, which is arranged on the carrier; a card tray, which is movably connected to the card seat, and is movable relative to the card seat along a first direction, and has a first position. When in the first position, the card tray abuts against the card seat; and a reset member, which provides a reset force to the card tray to move the card tray away from the card seat when the card tray moves from the first position toward the card seat in the first direction.
[0049] In the present disclosure, the card tray assembly can be used in various electronic devices. For example, the card tray assembly can also be a middle frame assembly. In such an embodiment, the carrier can be a middle frame body.
[0050] The card tray assembly provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure includes a reset member. During the mutual configuration process of the card tray and the card tray slot, the shape and position of the reset member can be compressed by the different positions of the card tray on the card holder, and then the reset force provided by the reset member is used to drive the card tray away from the card holder, thereby simplifying the card removal process. At the same time, the number of openings on the appearance of the electronic device is reduced, the appearance of the electronic device is improved, and the dust and water resistance of the electronic device is improved.
[0051] Figure 1 is a partial cross-sectional view of a card tray assembly according to an exemplary embodiment.
[0052] Reference Figure 1 As shown, a card tray assembly 100 is provided, which may include: a carrier 1, a card holder 2, a card tray 3 and a reset member 4. The carrier 1 may be a shell that provides support for other components. The material of the carrier 1 may include one or more materials such as metal, plastic, and plastic.
[0053] On a plane parallel to the first direction X, the carrier 1 may have a rectangular shape. However, the present disclosure is not limited thereto, and may also be circular, elliptical, triangular, rhombus, or other irregular polygonal shapes. In the following embodiments, the carrier 1 is described as having a rectangular shape, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto. The card holder 2 and the card tray 3 may be disposed in the carrier 1.
[0054] In the present disclosure, the card holder 2 can be disposed on the carrier 1, for example, on one side of the carrier 1. Taking the case where the carrier 1 is rectangular on a plane parallel to the first direction X as an example, the card holder 2 can be disposed on the short side of the carrier 1. However, the present disclosure is not limited thereto, and in some embodiments, the card holder 2 can be disposed at any suitable position of the carrier 1 according to factors such as the shape of the carrier 1 and the size of the card holder 2 itself.
[0055] The card holder 2 may be formed by a groove on one side of the carrier 1, or may be an independent component installed or configured on the carrier 1 during the manufacturing process of the card holder assembly 100, which is not specifically limited in the present disclosure. Figure 1 As shown, the carrier 1 may be provided with a receiving groove 11 with an open outer end, the card holder 2 may be disposed in the receiving groove 11 , and the card tray 3 is movably connected to the card holder 2 via the receiving groove 11 .
[0056] Figure 2 The figure is an exploded schematic diagram of a card holder and a card tray according to an exemplary embodiment.
[0057] In the present disclosure, in the first position (such as Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown), the card tray 3 and the card holder 2 are in a normal working cooperation state, the card tray 3 is abutted against the card holder 2, the related circuits on the card tray 3 and the card holder 2 can be connected, the components on the related circuits are working normally, and the electronic device 200 can read and use the data carried by the electronic components carried by the card tray 3.
[0058] In the present disclosure, the card tray 3 may have a second position. When the card tray 3 moves in the first direction X toward the card holder 2 and moves to the point where the distance between the card tray 3 and the card holder 2 is the smallest, it can be considered that the card tray 3 is in the second position (eg, Figure 7 and Figure 8 shown).
[0059] Reference Figure 1 to Figure 2 As shown, in the present disclosure, the card tray 3 and the card holder 2 can be movably connected, and the card tray 3 can be movable along the first direction X relative to the card holder 2. The card tray 3 has a first position and a second position. In the first position, the card tray 3 is assembled with the card holder 2. For example, in such a case, the card tray 3 abuts against the card holder 2.
[0060] The card tray 3 and the card holder 2 may be movably connected, that is, the card tray 3 and the card holder 2 may be separated from each other and may be configured as one body. The card tray 3 may be used to place identification cards such as SIM cards. The user may place the identification card in the card tray 3, or remove or replace the identification card by separating the card tray 3 from the card holder 2. The user may also configure the card tray 3 and the card holder 2 as one body, and then install the identification card in the card tray assembly 100.
[0061] Specifically, the card tray 3 can move along the first direction X relative to the card holder 2, and includes two positions within the movable range of the card tray 3, that is, the card tray 3 has a first position and a second position. In the first position, the card tray 3 and the card holder 2 are in a normal working cooperation state, the card tray 3 and the related circuits on the card holder 2 can be connected, the components on the related circuits work normally, and the electronic device 200 can read and use the data carried by the electronic components carried by the card tray 3.
[0062] In the present disclosure, the reset member 4 may be disposed on the card tray 3 or the card holder 2. When the card tray 3 moves in the first direction X from the first position toward the card holder 2, the reset member 4 may provide a reset force to the card tray 3 to make the card tray 3 move away from the card holder 2. For example, when the card tray 3 is in the second position, the reset member 4 may drive the card holder 2 to move along the first direction X relative to the card holder 2 to separate from the card holder 2.
[0063] In the present disclosure, the reset member 4 may be disposed on the card tray 3 , for example, may be disposed on an end portion of the card tray 3 opposite to the receiving end of the card holder 2 .
[0064] In the present disclosure, the reset member 4 may also be provided on the card holder 2, for example, may be provided at the receiving end of the card holder 2. However, the present disclosure is not limited thereto, and in some embodiments, the reset member 4 may be provided on both the card tray 3 and the card holder 2.
[0065] Specifically, when the card tray 3 moves from the first position to the second position, the reset member 4 is compressed, and when the card tray 3 is in the second position, the reset member 4 generates a reset force to restore its deformation, and the direction of the reset force is the first direction X, so that the reset member 4 provides the card tray 3 with a reset force away from the card holder 2. For example, when the card tray 3 is in the second position, the reset member 4 can drive the card holder 2 to move along the first direction X to separate from the card holder 2.
[0066] It should be noted that the reset member 4 in the present disclosure does not generate the reset force only when the card tray 3 is in the second position, but starts to generate the reset force when the card tray 3 moves from the first position toward the card holder 2. When the card tray 3 is in the second position, the distance between the card tray 3 and the card holder 2 is the smallest, and the reset force provided by the reset member 4 is the largest.
[0067] In some embodiments, the reset element 4 can be a spring, a cylinder, a hydraulic device, a damper or other energy-storing reset component.
[0068] However, the present disclosure is not limited thereto, and any component or structure having the property of storing energy, storing energy when an external force acts on them, and releasing the stored energy when the external force disappears, restoring the system to its original state can be used. In the following description of the embodiment, the reset member 4 is taken as a spring for example, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto.
[0069] It should be noted that when the card tray 3 is in the first position, the reset member 4 can be in a free state, that is, the reset member 4 does not apply any force to the card tray 3; the reset member 4 can also be in a compressed state, that is, the reset member 4 can apply a certain force to the card tray 3, but the force at this time is not sufficient to drive the card tray 3 to move along the first direction X relative to the card holder 2 to separate from the card holder 2.
[0070] Figure 3 The figure is a schematic diagram of the structure of a card holder according to an exemplary embodiment.
[0071] Reference Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the two ends of the card holder 2 along the first direction X may be respectively provided with a receiving end 22 and an open end 21 , and the card tray 3 may pass through the open end 21 to be assembled with the card holder 2 .
[0072] Specifically, the open end 21 of the card holder 2 is in an open shape, and the width of the open end 21 is greater than the width of the card tray 3, so that the card tray 3 can pass through the open end 21 and be normally assembled with the card holder 2. The present disclosure does not specifically limit the shape of the open end 21, and the specific shape of the open end 21 can be matched and set according to factors such as the shape of the card tray 3.
[0073] It should be noted that the receiving end 22 is the other end of the card holder 2 that is geometrically opposite to the open end 21. The receiving end 22 may be in a completely closed shape so that the card holder 2 can provide support for the card tray 3. The receiving end 22 may also be in an incompletely closed or open shape to facilitate the connection between the card holder 2 and other functional modules of the electronic device 200. The present disclosure does not specifically limit the shape of the receiving end 22. In the following embodiments, the receiving end 22 is taken as an example of a completely closed shape, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto.
[0074] In this embodiment, the card holder 2 can be made of either plastic or metal. Among them, the card holder 2 made of plastic is lighter, which is conducive to the lightweight design of the electronic device 200, while the card holder 2 made of metal has higher structural strength, is not easily damaged by external forces, and can maintain consistency with the metal shell of the electronic device 200. In some embodiments, the carrier 1 and the card holder 2 can also be two independent structural parts, and the two can be connected by one of the assembly methods such as clamping, bonding and welding, or a combination thereof.
[0075] In some embodiments, the reset member 4 can be arranged at the end of the card tray 3. When the reset member 4 is arranged at the end of the card tray 3, the reset member 4 can move along with the card tray 3 in the first direction X, and then be taken out from the carrier 1. Such a setting facilitates timely and convenient removal of the damaged reset member 4 for repair, replacement and other subsequent work when the reset member 4 fails.
[0076] However, the present disclosure is not limited thereto. In some other exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure, reference is made to Figure 3 As shown, the reset member 4 can be arranged at the receiving end 22 of the card holder 2. When the reset member 4 is arranged at the receiving end 22 of the card holder 2, the moving distance of the reset member 4 during the assembly process of the card tray 3 and the card holder 2 is reduced, the probability of the reset member 4 being damaged due to frequent movement is reduced, and the overall use cost of the electronic device 200 is reduced.
[0077] Figure 4 is a side schematic diagram of a card tray assembly according to an exemplary embodiment.
[0078] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 4As shown, in some embodiments, the card tray assembly 100 may include a sealing member 12, which may be disposed around the open end 21 of the card holder 2, and the card tray 3 may include a pressing portion 31, which may be disposed at an end of the card tray 3 opposite to the open end 21 of the card holder 2. When the card tray 3 is in the first position, the sealing member 12 contacts a side of the pressing portion 31 facing the carrier 1.
[0079] Specifically, the card holder 2 is arranged in the receiving groove 11, and the sealing member 12 is arranged around the open end 21 of the card holder 2, that is, the sealing member 12 is arranged in the receiving groove 11 of the carrier 1, and the sealing member 12 may be annular. When the card tray 3 is in the first position, the surface of the card tray 3 and the carrier 1 may be flush, and the sealing member 12 is in contact with the side of the pressing portion 31 of the card tray 3 facing the carrier 1; when the card tray 3 is in the second position, the sealing member 12 is squeezed by the pressing portion 31 of the card tray 3, and the card tray 3 may be concave compared to the surface of the carrier 1. During the card removal process, the sealing member 12 applies a reaction force to the pressing portion 31 of the card tray 3, and the reaction force is in the first direction X, which is more conducive to the card tray 3 moving relative to the card holder 2 along the first direction X to separate from the card holder 2.
[0080] In some embodiments, the sealing member 12 may be a sealing foam, a sealing strip, a sealing tape or other element made of rubber, silicone, polymer or other materials.
[0081] However, the present disclosure is not limited thereto, and any component or structure can be any component or structure that has waterproof and dustproof properties and has a certain degree of softness and elasticity, and that stores energy when an external force acts on them and releases the stored energy when the external force disappears, thereby restoring the system to its original state. In the following description of the embodiments, the sealing member 12 is taken as a sealing foam for example, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto.
[0082] Figure 5 It is a schematic diagram of the coordination of a limiting member according to an exemplary embodiment. Figure 6 yes Figure 5 A partial enlarged schematic diagram of . Figure 7 It is a schematic diagram of another matching of limiting components according to an exemplary embodiment. Figure 8 yes Figure 7 A partial enlarged schematic diagram of .
[0083] Reference Figures 5 to 8 As shown, in some embodiments, the card tray assembly 100 may include a limit member 5, which is disposed between the card tray 3 and the card holder 2, wherein when the card tray 3 is in the first position, the limit member 5 fixes the card tray 3 and the card holder 2 to each other.
[0084] Specifically, the pressing portion 31 of the card tray 3 is acted upon by an external force, so that the card tray 3 moves toward the receiving end 22 of the card holder 2 in the first direction X. When the card tray 3 moves to the first position, the stopper 5 fixes the card tray 3 and the card holder 2 to each other. In the first position, the card tray 3 and the card holder 2 are in a normal working cooperation state, the card tray 3 and the related circuits on the card holder 2 can be connected, the components on the related circuits can work normally, and the electronic device 200 can read and use the data carried by the electronic components carried by the card tray 3.
[0085] It should be noted that the number of the limit members 5 can be one or more, and the specific number of the limit members 5 can be matched and set according to factors such as the size and shape of the card tray 3 and the card holder 2, the accuracy of the connection between the card tray 3 and the card holder 2, etc., and the present disclosure does not limit this.
[0086] Reference Figures 5 and 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the limit member 5 may include a first limit member 51 and a second limit member 52, wherein when the card tray 3 is in the first position, the first limit member 51 and the second limit member 52 abut against each other to fix the card tray 3 and the card holder 2 to each other.
[0087] Specifically, the pressing portion 31 of the card tray 3 is acted upon by an external force, causing the card tray 3 to move toward the accommodating end 22 of the card holder 2 in the first direction X. When the card tray 3 moves to the first position, the first limit member 51 and the second limit member 52 abut against each other to limit the card tray 3 from continuing to move in the first direction X, thereby providing feedback to the user so that the user stops applying external force to the pressing portion 31 of the card tray 3, thereby ensuring that the user can install the card tray 3 in a suitable position, that is, the card tray 3 is in the first position.
[0088] Reference Figures 5 and 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the first limiting member 51 may include a limiting portion 511 , wherein when the card tray 3 is in the first position, the limiting portion 511 abuts against the second limiting member 52 to fix the card tray 3 and the card holder 2 to each other.
[0089] Specifically, the pressing portion 31 of the card tray 3 is acted upon by an external force, causing the card tray 3 to move toward the accommodating end 22 of the card holder 2 in the first direction X. When the card tray 3 moves to the first position, the limiting portion 511 of the first limiting member 51 and the second limiting member 52 abut against each other to limit the card tray 3 from continuing to move in the first direction X, thereby providing feedback to the user so that the user stops applying external force to the pressing portion 31 of the card tray 3, thereby ensuring that the user can install the card tray 3 in a suitable position, that is, the card tray 3 is in the first position.
[0090] Reference Figures 5 to 8As shown, in some embodiments, the first position-limiting member 51 may include a first elastic member 512, and the first elastic member 512 is connected to the position-limiting portion 511, wherein when the card tray 3 is in the first position, the first elastic member 512 applies a force to the position-limiting portion 511 to make the position-limiting portion 511 abut against the second position-limiting member 52. The first elastic member 512 connected to the position-limiting portion 511 can provide a reset force for the position-limiting portion 511, so that the position-limiting portion 511 is reset to the initial position after the card tray 3 moves from the second position relative to the card holder 2 along the first direction X to separate from the card holder 2, so as to facilitate the next pressing and ensure the repeatability of the ejection process of the card tray 3.
[0091] Reference Figures 5 and 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the second limiting member 52 may include a protrusion 521 , and when the card holder 3 is in the first position, the protrusion 521 abuts against the limiting portion 511 .
[0092] Specifically, the pressing portion 31 of the card tray 3 is acted upon by an external force, causing the card tray 3 to move toward the accommodating end 22 of the card holder 2 in the first direction X. When the card tray 3 moves to the first position, the limiting portion 511 of the first limiting member 51 and the protruding portion 521 of the second limiting member 52 abut against each other to limit the card tray 3 from continuing to move in the first direction X, thereby providing feedback to the user so that the user stops applying external force to the pressing portion 31 of the card tray 3, thereby ensuring that the user can install the card tray 3 in a suitable position, that is, the card tray 3 is in the first position.
[0093] Reference Figures 5 to 8 As shown, in some embodiments, the second limiting member 52 may include a second elastic member 522, which is connected to the protrusion 521. When the card tray 3 is in the first position, the second elastic member 522 applies a force to the protrusion 521 to make the protrusion 521 abut against the limiting portion 511.
[0094] The second elastic member 522 connected to the protrusion 521 can provide a pressing force for the protrusion 521, so as to enhance the stability of the snap-fit between the protrusion 521 of the second limiting member 52 and the limiting portion 511 of the first limiting member 51 through the above-mentioned pressing force, thereby preventing the limiting member 5 from failing under abnormal conditions such as shaking, collision, vibration, etc., so as to cause the card tray 3 to separate from the card base 2.
[0095] The second elastic member 522 connected to the protrusion 521 can provide a reset force for the protrusion 521, so that the protrusion 521 avoids the first limit member 51 when the card tray 3 moves from the second position relative to the card holder 2 along the first direction X to separate from the card holder 2, thereby preventing the ejection process of the card tray 3 from being interrupted. After the card holder 2 moves along the first direction X to separate from the card holder 2, the second elastic member 522 drives the protrusion 521 to reset to the initial position, so that the first limit member 51 and the second limit member 52 can be normally engaged during the installation of the card tray 3, so that the card tray 3 can be installed in a suitable position, that is, the card tray 3 is in the first position.
[0096] In some embodiments, the first elastic member 512 extends in the first direction X, and the second elastic member 522 extends in the second direction Y, wherein the second direction Y is the limiting direction between the first limiting member 51 and the second limiting member 52 , and the second direction Y intersects with the first direction X.
[0097] However, the present disclosure is not limited thereto. In some other embodiments, the first elastic member 512 extends in the first direction X. In some other embodiments, the second elastic member 522 extends in the second direction Y. The present disclosure does not specifically limit the number of the first elastic members 512, and can be matched and set according to factors such as the number and material of the first position-limiting members 51. The present disclosure does not specifically limit the number of the second elastic members 522, and can be matched and set according to factors such as the number and material of the second position-limiting members 52.
[0098] In some embodiments, the first limiting member 51 is disposed on the card tray 3 , and the second limiting member 52 is disposed on the card holder 2 , and the first limiting member 51 and the second limiting member 52 are disposed in a one-to-one correspondence.
[0099] Specifically, the pressing portion 31 of the card tray 3 is acted upon by an external force, causing the card tray 3 to move toward the accommodating end 22 of the card holder 2 in the first direction X. When the card tray 3 moves to the first position, the first limiting member 51 on the card tray 3 and the second limiting member 52 on the card holder 2 abut against each other to limit the card tray 3 from continuing to move in the first direction X, thereby providing feedback to the user so that the user stops applying external force to the pressing portion 31 of the card tray 3, thereby ensuring that the user can install the card tray 3 in a suitable position, that is, the card tray 3 is in the first position.
[0100] It should be noted that the first stopper 51 and the second stopper 52 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence, and the number of the first stopper 51 and the second stopper 52 is the same, which can be one or more. The position of the first stopper 51 on the card tray 3 and the position of the second stopper 52 on the card holder 2 correspond to each other. When the card tray 3 is in the first position, the corresponding first stopper 51 and the second stopper 52 are engaged with each other to ensure the stability of the card tray 3 in the first position and prevent the card tray 3 from being separated from the card holder 2 under abnormal conditions such as shaking, collision, vibration, etc.
[0101] Fig. 9 The figure shows a schematic diagram of the structure of a card tray according to an exemplary embodiment. Fig.10 yes Fig. 9 A partial schematic diagram of .
[0102] Reference Figures 9 and 10 As shown, in some embodiments, the tray 3 includes a side portion connected to the end, the side portion is provided with a receiving portion 32, the first limit member 51 is provided in the receiving portion 32, and in the first direction X, the receiving portion 32 may include a first side wall 321 and a second side wall 322 that are relatively arranged.
[0103] Among them, when the card tray 3 is in the first position, the first elastic member 512 connected to the limiting portion 511 can provide a force for the limiting portion 511 so that there is a first gap between the limiting portion 511 of the first limiting member 51 and the first side wall 321, the limiting portion 511 of the first limiting member 51 abuts against the second side wall 322, the second limiting member 52 is arranged at the first gap, the first limiting member 51 and the first side wall 321 limit the second limiting member 52 to fix the card tray 3 and the card holder 2 to each other.
[0104] In some embodiments, Figure 8 As shown, when the card tray 3 moves in the first direction X toward the card holder 2 and moves to the point where the distance between the card tray 3 and the card holder 2 is the smallest, the card tray 3 can be considered to be in the second position. When the card tray 3 is in the second position, the limiting portion 511 of the first limiting member 51 abuts against the first side wall 321, there is a second interval between the first limiting member 51 and the second side wall 322, and the second limiting member 52 abuts against a side of the first limiting member 51 facing the second side wall 322. When the reset member 4 drives the card tray 3 to move relative to the card holder 2 along the first direction X to separate from the card holder 2, the second limiting member 52 can avoid the first limiting member 51 and the card tray 3 under the action of the second elastic member 522, ensuring that the card tray 3 can be ejected from the card holder 2 smoothly.
[0105] Reference Fig. 9 As shown, in some embodiments, the card tray 3 may include a pressing portion 31 and a card slot 33. The pressing portion 31 is disposed at an end of the card tray 3 opposite to the open end 21 of the card holder 2, and the pressing portion 31 is used for the user to apply external force to the card tray 3. The card slot 33 is used to place electronic components carrying data, such as a Subscriber Identity Module (SIM card) and a storage card (e.g., a microSD card, a TF card).
[0106] It should be noted that the present disclosure does not specifically limit the shape of the card slot 33, which can be one or more of a rectangle, a circle, a triangle, and an irregular polygon. In the description of the subsequent embodiments, the card slot 33 is taken as a rectangle for example, but the present disclosure is not limited to this.
[0107] The present disclosure does not specifically limit the number of the card slots 33 , which may be one or more. Different numbers of card slots 33 can be selected based on factors such as the compatibility of the electronic device 200 and the user's usage requirements.
