[0027] See also Figure 1-Figure 2 The housing 100 includes a lower housing 10 and an upper housing 20, and the upper housing 20 is mounted on the lower housing 10. By placing the object to be loaded into the housing 100, that is, between the upper housing 20 and the lower housing 10, both the upper housing 20 and the lower housing 10 have a protective effect on the object to be loaded.

[0028] For the lower shell 10, see Figure 2 The lower shell 10 includes a bottom plate 11 and a side plate 22. One end of the side plate 22 is connected to the bottom plate 11, and the bottom plate 11 and the side plate 22 together enclose a shell cavity 10a with an opening 10b, the opening 10b is connected to the shell cavity 10a, and the side plate 22 is provided with a buckle hole 10c.

[0029] For the upper shell 20, see Figure 2-Figure 4The upper shell 20 includes an upper shell body 21 and a connecting piece 22. The upper shell body 21 extends toward the lower shell 10 to obtain the connecting piece 22, and the connecting piece 22 is arranged around the upper shell body 21 to form a ring-shaped connecting piece 22. The shape of the connecting piece 22 is adapted to the shape of the shell cavity 10a. The side wall of the connecting piece 22 is provided with a notch 22a and a buckle part 224, and the buckle part 224 and the notch 22a are arranged adjacent to each other. When assembling the shell 100, the object to be loaded is placed into the shell cavity 10a from the opening 10b, and then the connecting piece 22 is inserted into the shell cavity 10a from the opening 10b. The wall surface of the shell cavity 10a squeezes the snap-fitting portion 224, so that the snap-fitting portion 224 pushes the connecting piece 22 to elastically deform in the direction away from the lower shell 10. When the snap-fitting portion 224 corresponds to the snap-fitting hole 10c, the connecting piece 22 is reset and provides elastic force. Part of the snap-fitting portion 224 is inserted into the snap-fitting hole 10c and abuts against the wall of the snap-fitting hole 10c, and the upper shell 20 is not allowed to move in the direction away from the lower shell 10, thereby realizing the installation of the lower shell 10 and the upper shell 20. The snap-fitting portion 224 of the upper shell body 21 is inserted into the snap-fitting hole 10c, so that the upper shell 20 can be quickly installed on the lower shell 10.

[0030] For the above-mentioned upper shell body 21, a limiting portion 211 is extended from the upper shell body 21, and the limiting portion 211 is arranged opposite to the snap-fit ​​portion 224. The limiting portion 211 abuts against the edge of the cavity opening of the shell cavity 10a. The limiting portion 211 has a limiting function, thereby reducing the risk of the connecting member 22 being inserted too deeply when the upper shell 20 is installed on the lower shell 10.

[0031] For the above-mentioned connector 22, see Figure 2 The connecting member 22 includes a first connecting portion 221, a second connecting portion 222 and an elastic portion 223. One end of the first connecting portion 221, one end of the elastic portion 223 and one end of the second connecting portion 222 are all connected to the upper shell body 21, and the buckle portion 224 and the notch 22a are both provided on the elastic portion 223.

[0032] Regarding the first connecting portion 221, a first gap 22b is provided between the first connecting portion 221 and the elastic portion 223. When the connecting member 22 is inserted into the shell cavity 10a from the opening 10b and the wall of the shell cavity 10a is pressed against the buckle portion 224, the first gap 22b can lift the elastic portion 223 to undergo elastic deformation, so that the upper shell 20 can be quickly installed on the lower shell 10.

[0033] Regarding the second connecting portion 222, a second gap 22c is provided between the second connecting portion 222 and the elastic portion 223. When the connecting member 22 is inserted into the shell cavity 10a from the opening 10b and the wall of the shell cavity 10a is pressed against the buckle portion 224, the second gap 22c can lift the elastic portion 223 to undergo elastic deformation, so that the upper shell 20 can be quickly installed on the lower shell 10.

[0034] For the above-mentioned buckling portion 224, please refer to Figure 4 The end of the buckle part 224 away from the upper shell body 21 is provided with a guide slope 224a, which can guide the buckle part 224 to be inserted into the buckle hole 10c, so that the upper shell 20 can quickly align with the lower shell 10. The other end of the buckle part 224 facing the upper shell body 21 is provided with an abutment plane 224b, which is used to abut the top wall surface of the buckle hole 10c away from the bottom of the shell cavity 10a when the buckle part 224 is inserted into the buckle hole 10c.

[0035] In some embodiments, the housing 100 further includes a shielding member (not shown), which is connected to the lower housing 10 and is used to be inserted into the buckle hole 10c from the outside. Optionally, the shielding member is provided with a mounting portion, which corresponds to the buckle hole 10c, and is used for mounting the distance extending member, which is used to push the buckle portion 224 so that the buckle portion 224 is separated from the buckle hole 10c.

[0036] In some embodiments, the housing 100 is provided with a latch hole, and the shielding member is provided with a latch hook portion, which is inserted into the latch hole. The latch hook portion can limit the shielding member from being separated from the lower housing 10 .

[0037] Optionally, the shielding member includes a shielding body, a connecting portion and a hook portion, the connecting portion is respectively connected to the shielding body and the hook portion, the shielding body corresponds to the snap-fit ​​hole 10c, and along the connecting portion toward the hook portion, the cross-sectional area of ​​the hook portion is larger than the cross-sectional area of ​​the connecting portion, so that an abutment step is formed between the hook portion and the connecting portion. After the hook portion is inserted into the hole, the edge of the hole of the hole abuts against the abutment step, thereby achieving stable installation of the shielding member and reducing the risk of the shielding member being detached from the lower shell 10.

[0038] Optionally, the shielding member is made of a flexible material, such as rubber or silicone.

[0039] In some embodiments, the lower shell 10 is provided with a groove adapted to the shielding member, the shielding member is received in the groove, and the notch of the shielding member is flush with the notch of the groove, thereby reducing the risk of the shielding member protruding from the surface of the lower shell 10 and affecting the appearance.

When assembling the shell 100, the user presses the upper shell 20 toward the lower shell 10, and the connecting piece 22 is inserted into the shell cavity 10a from the opening 10b. The wall surface of the shell cavity 10a presses the snap-fitting portion 224, so that the snap-fitting portion 224 pushes the connecting piece 22 to elastically deform in the direction away from the lower shell 10. When the snap-fitting portion 224 corresponds to the snap-fitting hole 10c, the connecting piece 22 is reset and provides elastic force. Part of the snap-fitting portion 224 is inserted into the snap-fitting hole 10c and abuts against the wall surface of the snap-fitting hole 10c, and the upper shell 20 is not allowed to move in the direction away from the lower shell 10, thereby realizing the installation of the lower shell 10 and the upper shell 20, further improving the efficiency of assembly and reducing labor costs.
