DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0034] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present application clearer and more specific, the present application is further described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. It should be understood that the specific examples described here are only used to explain the present application and are not used to limit the present application.

[0035] Embodiment 1

[0036] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment proposes a solar charging shell structure of a portable computer, which serves as a screen fixing frame of the portable computer and is used to assemble the portable computer. The portable computer in this embodiment can be a terminal device such as a laptop computer and a tablet computer. For the convenience of structural description, taking a tablet computer as an example, the long side direction of the tablet computer is the length direction, and the short side direction is the width direction. When the display screen of the tablet computer is in a vertical state, the length direction is the left-right direction, and the width direction is the up-down direction. The components in this embodiment are described structurally with reference to the above directions.

[0037] like Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, the solar charging shell structure of the portable computer in this embodiment mainly includes: an outer frame 100, a heat sink 400 and a photovoltaic charging panel 200. The front of the outer frame 100 is provided with an installation cavity 120, which is mainly used as the installation position of the display panel 300, so that the display panel 300 is installed in the installation cavity 120 of the outer frame 100, and the circuit module can also be installed in the installation cavity 120, thereby forming a fully functional tablet computer. The back of the outer frame 100 is provided with a receiving cavity 110 with a cavity opening 111, and the heat sink 400 is hinged on the lower side of the outer frame 100, and the receiving cavity 110 is opened or closed by flipping. The photovoltaic charging panel 200 is connected to the heat sink 400, and is located outside the receiving cavity 110 or accommodated in the receiving cavity 110 by flipping the heat sink 400. The photovoltaic charging panel 200 can be electrically connected to the circuit module in the installation cavity 120, so that the tablet computer can be charged. The heat sink 400 supports the photovoltaic charging panel 200 connected thereto, and the photovoltaic charging panel 200 dissipates heat through the heat sink 400. The heat sink 400 is a metal heat sink 400, which can be a metal plate with good thermal conductivity such as an aluminum plate or a stainless steel plate. The photovoltaic charging panel 200 is connected to the outer frame 100 and has an unfolded state (such as being located outside the accommodating cavity 110) by flipping. Figure 5 as shown) and the accommodation state in the accommodation cavity 110 (as shown Figure 3As shown). When charging is not needed, the photovoltaic charging panel 200 is flipped into the accommodating cavity 110 to form a storage state. In the storage state, the photovoltaic surface 201 of the photovoltaic charging panel 200 is hidden in the accommodating cavity 110, and the cavity opening 111 is sealed by the heat dissipation plate 400. After the photovoltaic charging panel 200 is flipped from the cavity opening 111 to the outside of the accommodating cavity 110, the photovoltaic charging panel 200 can be unfolded and placed on the desktop. At this time, in the unfolded state, the photovoltaic surface 201 of the photovoltaic charging panel 200 faces upward, and the sunlight shines on the photovoltaic surface 201 to generate solar power. Flipping the photovoltaic charging panel 200 to the outside of the outer frame 100 through the heat dissipation plate 400 can also avoid the heat concentration in the outer frame 100, which causes the heat concentration of the photovoltaic charging panel 200 and causes the temperature to rise, which is conducive to heat dissipation.

[0038] Therefore, the solar charging shell structure of the portable computer in this embodiment, after being assembled to form a portable computer, the photovoltaic charging panel 200 is turned over by the heat sink 400 and the photovoltaic charging panel 200 can be unfolded on the outside of the outer frame 100 for solar charging. The heat sink 400 not only plays a role in bearing and protecting the photovoltaic charging panel 200. Moreover, by unfolding the photovoltaic charging panel 200 for charging, heat is avoided from being concentrated in the notebook, creating favorable conditions for the heat dissipation of the photovoltaic charging panel 200. Moreover, the heat sink 400 can also conduct heat on the back of the photovoltaic charging panel 200 in time when the photovoltaic charging panel 200 is generating solar power, and conduct the heat of the photovoltaic charging panel 200 in time for heat dissipation. Thereby improving the heat dissipation capacity of the photovoltaic charging panel 200, so that the charging efficiency of the photovoltaic charging panel 200 remains stable and efficient.

[0039] The heat sink 400 in this embodiment can be hinged at one side edge of the outer frame 100, such as the left edge, the right edge or the upper edge, and can be flipped to achieve the technical effect. Figure 1 , Figure 4 As shown, the heat sink 400 in this embodiment is connected to the lower edge of the outer frame 100 through a hinge 420. The heat sink 400 is hinged to the lower edge of the outer frame 100, so that the heat sink 400 and the photovoltaic charging panel 200 are opened from the upper edge and turned downward during the unfolding process, so that the photovoltaic surface 201 of the photovoltaic charging panel 200 after turning over is just facing upward, making the use of the photovoltaic charging panel 200 more convenient.

[0040] like Figure 4 , Figure 7As shown, further, the hinged member 420 in this embodiment specifically includes: a hinged rod 421 and a hinged platform 422. The hinged rod 421 is arranged on the outer frame 100 along the length direction and penetrates the accommodating cavity 110, and the hinged platform 422 is arranged on the inner wall of the heat sink 400 and is provided with a through hole; the hinged platform 422 is sleeved on the hinged rod 421 through the through hole, so that the heat sink 400 rotates around the hinged rod 421. In the specific structure, a plurality of hinged platforms 422 are arranged at intervals along the length direction, and the through holes of the plurality of hinged platforms 422 are coaxially arranged, and the hinged rod 421 passes through the outer frame 100 and sequentially passes through the through holes of the hinged platform 422, so that the hinged platform 422 can rotate around the hinged rod 421.

[0041] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown, further, in this embodiment, a magnetic attraction component 130 is provided in the accommodating cavity 110, and the heat sink 400 covers the cavity opening 111 of the accommodating cavity 110 through the magnetic attraction component 130. The magnetic attraction component 130 is used to realize the magnetic connection between the heat sink 400 and the outer frame 100, which is convenient for the user to flip open and close the heat sink 400, optimizes the structure, is easy to use, and has strong practicality.

[0042] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown, further, the magnetic attraction component 130 in this embodiment specifically includes: a plurality of magnetic attraction blocks 131 and a magnetic attraction area 132. The plurality of magnetic attraction blocks 131 are arranged along the side edges in the length direction and / or the side edges in the width direction of the outer frame 100. In the specific structure, the plurality of magnetic attraction blocks 131 are arranged along the two side edges in the length direction of the outer frame 100, and along the one side edge (upper side edge) in the width direction of the outer frame 100, to form a three-sided magnetic attraction structure except for the hinged edge. The magnetic attraction area 132 is located on the side of the heat sink 400 facing the accommodating cavity 110, and is arranged corresponding to the magnetic attraction block 131. As shown Figure 7 As shown, if the metal heat sink 400 has magnetic attraction, the magnetic attraction area 132 can be the entire metal heat sink 400. Magnetic blocks 131 are set on both sides of the outer frame 100, and multiple magnetic blocks 131 on one side are arranged at intervals along the width direction, so that the suction force is stronger, and the left and right sides of the outer frame 100 are adsorbed, so that the adsorption stability is stronger, and the heat sink 400 after adsorption is stably connected and not easy to fall off.

[0043] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6As shown, further, to facilitate the installation of the magnetic block 131, a plurality of installation enclosures are provided on both side edges in the length direction of the outer frame 100, and an installation cavity 120 is formed in the installation enclosure, and the magnetic block 131 is embedded in the installation cavity 120. The installation enclosure is located on the inner side of the outer frame 100, and the installation cavity 120 is a square opening. By embedding the magnetic block 131 into the installation cavity 120, the magnetic block 131 can be quickly installed, and the installation cavity 120 makes the installation of the magnetic block 131 more stable.

[0044] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, further, in this embodiment, a plurality of photovoltaic charging panels 200 are provided, and the plurality of photovoltaic charging panels 200 are connected in sequence and folded or unfolded by flipping at the connection. By adopting the form of a plurality of photovoltaic charging panels 200, they can be unfolded for charging, thereby increasing the area of ​​the photovoltaic surface 201 receiving solar energy and improving the charging efficiency. After charging is completed, the plurality of photovoltaic charging panels 200 are folded and stacked on the heat dissipation plate 400, and then the stacked plurality of photovoltaic charging panels 200 are flipped through the heat dissipation plate 400 and accommodated in the accommodating cavity 110, so that a larger charging area can be provided in the limited accommodating cavity 110.

[0045] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, further, the innermost photovoltaic charging panel 200 among the multiple photovoltaic charging panels 200 in this embodiment is fixedly connected to the heat sink 400, and the side length of the heat sink 400 in the width direction is greater than or equal to the side length of the width of the photovoltaic charging panel 200. Only one heat sink 400 is needed to connect the innermost photovoltaic charging panel 200, so that all photovoltaic charging panels 200 can be unfolded and folded and stored, and the storage and unfolding process is convenient and practical.

[0046] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, the plurality of photovoltaic charging panels 200 may be 2, 3 or more. Taking 2 photovoltaic charging panels 200 as an example, the side close to the outer frame 100 is the inner side, and the side away from the outer frame 100 is the outer side. The inner photovoltaic charging panel 200 is fixed on the heat dissipation plate 400, and the outer photovoltaic charging panel 200 is flipped inwards when stored and stacked on the inner photovoltaic charging panel 200, and the photovoltaic surfaces 201 of the two are opposite.

[0047] Taking three photovoltaic charging panels 200 as an example, the outermost photovoltaic charging panel 200 is flipped toward the back of the middle photovoltaic charging panel 200 when stored, and the photovoltaic surfaces 201 of the two are arranged opposite to each other; then the stacked middle photovoltaic charging panel 200 is folded toward the photovoltaic surface 201 of the inner photovoltaic charging panel 200, and the photovoltaic surfaces 201 of the two are arranged opposite to each other.

[0048] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, further, the multiple photovoltaic charging panels 200 in this embodiment are connected by a connecting sleeve 210. The connecting sleeve 210 can be a rubber sleeve, so that the multiple photovoltaic charging panels 200 can be connected into a whole, and the cable line is wrapped in the connecting sleeve 210, so as to effectively protect the cable, so that the photovoltaic charging panel 200 is more stable and not easy to be damaged during the flipping process. The connecting sleeve 210 forms a flexible connecting belt at the connection of adjacent photovoltaic charging panels 200. The use of a flexible connecting belt enhances the plastic deformation ability of the photovoltaic charging panel 200 during the folding process, making the flipping process of the photovoltaic charging panel 200 more stable.

[0049] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, further, in this embodiment, in order to facilitate the flipping operation of the heat sink 400, a cover opening groove 140 is provided on the edge of the outer frame 100. That is, a notch is provided on the side of the upper edge of the outer frame 100 facing the heat sink 400, and the cover opening groove 140 provides a force application position for flipping the heat sink 400. The cover opening groove 140 can be located in the middle position of the length direction of the outer frame 100. When the heat sink 400 after adsorption needs to be flipped and opened, the user can directly put a finger into the cover opening groove 140 to conveniently apply force to the heat sink 400, making it more convenient to open the heat sink 400.
