Description

Technical Field

[0001] The embodiments of the present application relate to the technical field of electronic products, and in particular to a protective shell and a terminal assembly. Background Art

[0002] The protective case of the electronic device is usually provided with a support plate, so that the protective case can not only protect the electronic device, but also support the electronic device in scenarios such as watching videos and live broadcasting through the electronic device.

[0003] In the related art, a protective shell with a support plate usually includes a protective shell body and a support plate. A support shaft is provided on the protective shell body, and a card slot is provided on the support plate. The support shaft is located in the card slot and can rotate in the card slot to realize the connection between the support plate and the protective shell body, and the support plate can be rotated around the support shaft, so as to facilitate the support plate to support the electronic device in a suitable position.

[0004] However, after the support plate rotates around the support shaft multiple times, the connection effect between the support plate and the support shaft will deteriorate, which may easily cause damage to the protective shell, thereby resulting in a poor user experience. Utility Model Content

[0005] The embodiments of the present application provide a protective case and a terminal assembly, which are used to solve the problem of poor user experience of a protective case with a support plate.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the embodiments of the present application adopt the following technical solutions:

[0007] In a first aspect, a protective shell is provided, which includes a protective shell body, a rotating shaft, a bracket and a limit piece, wherein the rotating shaft is connected to the protective shell body; the bracket includes a supporting portion and a connecting portion arranged along a first direction, and the first direction is perpendicular to the axial direction of the rotating shaft; a clamping groove is formed on a surface of the connecting portion away from the supporting portion, at least a portion of the rotating shaft is located in the clamping groove, and the bracket can rotate around the axis of the rotating shaft to switch the bracket between a storage state and a supporting state; the limit piece is connected to the bracket, and at least a portion of the limit piece is located on a side of the rotating shaft away from the bottom wall surface of the clamping groove to limit at least a portion of the rotating shaft in the clamping groove.

[0008] According to the protective shell of the embodiment of the present application, the protective shell body is used to cover at least part of the electronic device to protect the electronic device. By providing a snap-in groove on the surface of the connecting portion away from the supporting portion, at least part of the rotating shaft is located in the snap-in groove, the connection between the connecting portion and the rotating shaft can be achieved, thereby achieving the connection between the bracket and the protective shell body. At this time, by rotating the bracket around the axis of the rotating shaft, the bracket can be switched between the storage state and the support state. In this way, when the electronic device needs to be supported, the bracket can be rotated to the support state, so that the support portion of the bracket and the protective shell body are in contact with a platform such as a desktop or the ground, thereby supporting the electronic device. When the electronic device does not need to be supported, the bracket can be rotated to the storage state to facilitate carrying and storage of the protective shell.

[0009] In addition, by providing a limit piece on the bracket, at least a portion of the limit piece is located on the side of the bottom wall of the rotating shaft away from the clamping groove. When the bracket rotates around the axis of the rotating shaft, the limit piece can limit the side of the bottom wall of the rotating shaft away from the clamping groove, thereby preventing the rotating shaft from exiting the clamping groove, thereby ensuring the connection effect between the bracket and the connecting part, thereby improving the user experience.

[0010] In a possible implementation of the first aspect, along the second direction, one side surface of the connecting portion is an installation side. Specifically, the connecting portion has two side surfaces in the second direction, and the installation side surface is one of the two side surfaces. The second direction is perpendicular to the axial direction of the rotating shaft and perpendicular to the first direction. The limiting member includes a connecting plate and a limiting plate, and the connecting plate is connected to the installation side surface. In this way, since the space restriction at the location of the installation side surface is relatively small, the installation of the connecting plate can be facilitated.

[0011] The limiting plate is connected to the connecting plate, and at least a portion of the limiting plate is located on a side of the bottom wall of the rotating shaft away from the clamping groove. In this way, it is only necessary to place at least a portion of the limiting plate on a side of the bottom wall of the rotating shaft away from the clamping groove, and then connect the connecting plate to the installation side to achieve the installation of the limiting plate, thereby avoiding the space limitation of the clamping groove and the position of the rotating shaft during installation, thereby facilitating the installation of the limiting plate.

[0012] In a possible implementation of the first aspect, there is a gap between the limiting plate and the rotating shaft. In this way, when the bracket rotates around the axis of the rotating shaft, the limiting plate can be prevented from wearing the rotating shaft, thereby increasing the service life of the rotating shaft.

[0013] In a possible implementation of the first aspect, an avoidance notch is formed on the end face of the connection portion facing away from the support portion, the avoidance notch extends from the installation side face to the groove wall face of the clamping groove, and part of the limit plate is located in the avoidance notch; by part of the limit plate being located in the avoidance notch, the limit plate can be closer to the rotating shaft, so that the limit plate can better limit the rotating shaft. Moreover, part of the limit plate being located in the avoidance notch can also reduce the size of the limit plate and the bracket as a whole in the thickness direction of the limit plate, so as to reduce the volume of the limit plate and the bracket as a whole.

[0014] Alternatively, an avoidance groove is formed on the installation side, the avoidance groove extends to the end face of the connection part away from the support part, and part of the limit plate is located in the avoidance groove. By part of the limit plate being located in the avoidance groove, the limit plate can be closer to the rotating shaft, so that the limit plate can better limit the rotating shaft. In addition, part of the limit plate is located in the avoidance groove, which can also reduce the size of the limit plate and the bracket in the thickness direction of the limit plate as a whole, so as to reduce the volume of the limit plate and the bracket as a whole.

[0015] In a possible implementation of the first aspect, the connection plate is bonded to the installation side surface in a relatively simple bonding manner. By bonding the connection plate to the installation side surface, the connection between the connection plate and the connection portion can be facilitated. And / or, a through hole is provided on the connection plate; the bracket further comprises a connection column, the connection column comprises a through section and a limiting section, the through section is connected to the installation side surface and passes through the through hole, the limiting section is connected to the through section and contacts the surface of the connection plate away from the installation side surface, so that the installation side surface can limit the connection plate from one side of the connection plate, and the limiting section can limit the connection plate from the other side opposite to the connection plate, so that the connection plate and the connection portion can be stably connected together to ensure the connection effect between the connection plate and the connection portion.

[0016] In a possible implementation of the first aspect, a hot melt hole is provided on the connecting plate; the bracket also includes a hot melt column, the hot melt column includes a connecting section and a deformation section, the connecting section is connected to the installation side and passes through the hot melt hole, the deformation section is connected to the connecting section, and contacts the surface of the connecting plate away from the installation side; in this way, the installation side can limit the connecting plate from one side of the connecting plate, and the deformation section can limit the connecting plate from the other side opposite to the connecting plate, so that the connecting plate and the connecting part can be stably connected together to ensure the connection effect between the connecting plate and the connecting part.

[0017] In a possible implementation of the first aspect, the limiting member includes a plurality of limiting plates, which are all connected to the connecting plate and are arranged at intervals along the axial direction of the rotating shaft. In this way, along the circumference of the rotating shaft, the plurality of limiting plates can limit different positions of the rotating shaft, and if the bracket is subjected to uneven force when rotating around the axis of the rotating shaft, at least one limiting plate can block the rotating shaft, thereby preventing the rotating shaft from exiting the clamping groove, thereby improving the stability of the limiting member limiting the rotating shaft.

[0018] In a possible implementation of the first aspect, the connecting plate includes a fixed plate and a plurality of transition plates, the fixed plate is connected to the installation side surface; the plurality of transition plates correspond to the plurality of limit plates one by one, and one transition plate connects one limit plate and the fixed plate. By providing the transition plates, the connection strength between the connecting plate and the connecting portion can be ensured, and the material of the connecting plate can be saved to reduce the cost.

[0019] In a possible implementation of the first aspect, a mounting groove is formed on the mounting side, and the connecting plate is disposed in the mounting groove. By disposing the connecting plate in the mounting groove, the size of the connecting plate and the bracket as a whole in the second direction can be reduced, thereby reducing the volume of the protective shell, so as to facilitate carrying of the protective shell.

[0020] In a possible implementation of the first aspect, at least part of the rotating shaft is interference-fitted with the clamping groove, so that the rotating shaft and the connecting portion have good connection strength, and when the bracket is subjected to a small force, the bracket will not move relative to the rotating shaft, thereby preventing the rotating shaft from exiting the clamping groove from the opening of the clamping groove, so as to ensure the connection effect between the rotating shaft and the clamping groove. Along the second direction, the wall plate where at least one side wall surface of the clamping groove is located is an elastic structure, and the second direction is perpendicular to the axial direction of the rotating shaft and perpendicular to the first direction. In this way, during the rotation of the bracket around the axis of the rotating shaft, the wall plate where at least one side wall surface of the clamping groove is located will be squeezed with the rotating shaft and elastically deformed, so as to facilitate the bracket to smoothly rotate around the axis of the rotating shaft, and after the bracket stops rotating, the wall plate where at least one side wall surface of the clamping groove is located will abut against the peripheral wall of the rotating shaft under the action of elasticity, so that the rotating shaft and the clamping groove are tightly connected, so as to ensure the stability of the connection between the bracket and the rotating shaft.

[0021] In a possible implementation of the first aspect, along the second direction, at least one side wall of the clamping groove is formed with a groove, the groove extends along the axial direction of the rotating shaft, and part of the rotating shaft is located in the groove, so that the wall plate where the side wall of the groove is located can limit the rotating shaft to prevent the rotating shaft from withdrawing from the clamping groove, thereby ensuring the connection effect between the rotating shaft and the connecting part. In addition, the rotating shaft and the groove are interference fit, and the second direction is perpendicular to the axial direction of the rotating shaft and perpendicular to the first direction. In this way, the peripheral wall of the rotating shaft and the wall plate where the side wall of the groove is located will abut against each other, thereby enhancing the connection strength between the rotating shaft and the connecting part, so as to further improve the connection effect between the rotating shaft and the connecting part.

[0022] In a second aspect, the present application provides a terminal assembly, which includes an electronic device and the above-mentioned protective shell, wherein the protective shell body covers at least a portion of the electronic device.

[0023] Since the terminal assembly provided in the embodiment of the present application includes the protective shell of the above embodiment, the two can solve the same problem and achieve the same effect. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

Therefore, the directional terms used are for better and clearer explanation and understanding of the embodiments of the present application, rather than indicating or implying that the referred device or element must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the embodiments of the present application.

[0047] In the embodiments of the present application, the terms "first", "second", "third", and "fourth" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Therefore, the features defined as "first", "second", "third", and "fourth" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features.

[0048] In the embodiments of the present application, the terms "include", "comprises" or any other variants thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or device including a series of elements includes not only those elements, but also includes other elements not explicitly listed, or also includes elements inherent to such process, method, article or device. In the absence of further restrictions, an element defined by the sentence "comprises a ..." does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article or device including the element.

[0049] In the embodiments of the present application, "and / or" is only a description of the association relationship of the associated objects, indicating that there can be three relationships.

[0051] This application provides a terminal component. Figure 1 , Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the structure of a terminal assembly provided in some embodiments of the present application. The terminal assembly 1 includes an electronic device 11 and a protective shell 12. The electronic device 11 includes but is not limited to a tablet phone, a tablet computer, a tablet-type vehicle-mounted device, etc. Figure 1 In the specific example shown, the electronic device 11 is a tablet phone.

[0052] The protective shell 12 includes a protective shell body 121, and the protective shell body 121 covers at least a portion of the electronic device 11 to protect the electronic device 11. Specifically, in some embodiments, please continue to refer to Figure 1The protective shell body 121 is formed with a accommodating cavity 121A with an opening on one side, and the back side of the electronic device 11 (the side opposite to the screen of the electronic device 11) extends into the accommodating cavity 121A through the opening of the accommodating cavity 121A, so that the accommodating cavity 121A covers the back and side surfaces of the electronic device 11 (i.e., the surface between the screen and the back side of the electronic device 11), thereby realizing that the protective shell 12 covers part of the electronic device 11.

[0053] In some other embodiments, see Figure 2 , Figure 2 Another structural schematic diagram of a terminal assembly provided for some embodiments of the present application. The protective shell body 121 may include a body 122A and a cover plate 122B. The body 122A may be the protective shell body 121 in the previous embodiment, and the cover plate 122B is rotatably connected to the body 122A, and the cover plate 122B rotates relative to the body 122A to open or close the opening of the accommodating cavity 121A. At this time, when the accommodating cavity 121A of the body 122A covers the back and sides of the electronic device 11, if the electronic device 11 is not in use, the cover plate 122B may be covered on the screen of the electronic device 11 and close the opening of the accommodating cavity 121A, so that the cover plate 122B and the body 122A completely cover the electronic device 11; if the electronic device 11 is in use, the cover plate 122B may open the opening of the accommodating cavity 121A to allow the screen of the electronic device 11 to leak out from the opening of the accommodating cavity 121A, so as to facilitate the operation of the screen of the electronic device 11.

[0054] The protective shell body 121 can be made of flexible materials such as silicone, leather, and plastic.

[0055] See also Figure 3 , Figure 3 for Figure 1 Schematic diagram of the structure of the protective shell body shown in . When the protective shell body 121 protects the electronic device 11, in order to avoid the protective shell body 121 affecting the use of the electronic device 11, a camera hole 121B is also provided on the protective shell body 121. The camera hole 121B is provided on the bottom wall of the accommodating cavity 121A and passes through the bottom wall of the accommodating cavity 121A. The camera hole 121B is used to match the camera on the back of the electronic device 11, so that when the protective shell 12 protects the electronic device 11, the camera of the electronic device 11 can shoot the scenery outside the protective shell 12 through the camera hole 121B. In addition, other holes can also be provided on the protective shell body 121, such as a charging hole, a headphone hole, a flash hole, etc.

[0056] See also Figure 4 , Figure 4Schematic diagram of the explosion structure of the protective shell provided for some embodiments of the present application. In order to enable the protective shell 12 to protect the electronic device 11 while also being able to support the electronic device 11 in scenarios such as live broadcasts and video calls, the protective shell 12 also includes a rotating shaft 123 and a bracket 124. The rotating shaft 123 is connected to the protective shell body 121. Specifically, the rotating shaft 123 is connected to the wall panel where the bottom wall of the accommodating cavity 121A is located, and is located on the outside of the accommodating cavity 121A. Among them, the rotating shaft 123 can be connected to the protective shell body 121 as an integral whole, and can also be connected to the protective shell body 121 by screwing, clamping, etc.

[0057] In some embodiments, see Figure 5 , Figure 5 for Figure 4 A magnified schematic diagram of the structure in the middle. Figure 5 1 shows a connection method between the rotating shaft 123 and the protective shell body 121. A receiving groove 121C is provided on the outer side surface of the wall plate where the bottom wall of the accommodating cavity 121A is located (i.e., the surface of the wall plate where the bottom wall of the accommodating cavity is located away from the bottom wall of the accommodating cavity), and the two ends of the rotating shaft 123 are respectively connected to the two opposite side wall surfaces of the receiving groove 121C, thereby realizing the connection between the rotating shaft 123 and the protective shell body 121.

[0058] In some other embodiments, see Figure 6 , Figure 6 for Figure 4 A schematic diagram of another connection method between the rotating shaft and the main body of the protective shell is shown in FIG. A connecting block 121D is provided on the outer side of the wall plate where the bottom wall of the accommodating cavity 121A is located, and the peripheral wall of the rotating shaft 123 is connected to the connecting block 121D, and along the axial direction of the rotating shaft 123, the rotating shaft 123 extends to both sides of the connecting block 121D.

[0059] The bracket 124 includes a first direction (eg Figure 4 The first direction is perpendicular to the rotation axis 123 (as shown in FIG. Figure 4 The support 124 may be a support plate, a support rod, or the like.

[0060] The connecting portion 1242 is used to connect with the rotating shaft 123 so that the bracket 124 is connected with the rotating shaft 123. For details, please refer to Figure 7 , Figure 7One of the schematic diagrams of the connection relationship between the bracket and the rotating shaft provided in some embodiments of the present application. A snap-in groove 1242A is formed on the surface of the connecting portion 1242 away from the supporting portion 1241. At least part of the rotating shaft 123 is located in the snap-in groove 1242A. In this way, the connection portion 1242 can be connected to the protective shell body 121 by at least part of the rotating shaft 123 being located in the snap-in groove 1242A, thereby connecting the bracket 124 to the protective shell body 121.

[0061] When the bracket 124 needs to be assembled with the protective shell body 121, it is only necessary to point the opening of the clamping groove 1242A toward the peripheral wall of the rotating shaft 123, and then push the bracket 124 toward the rotating shaft 123, so that the peripheral wall of the rotating shaft 123 extends into the clamping groove 1242A through the opening of the clamping groove 1242A, and the rotating shaft 123 can be connected with the clamping groove 1242A. This connection method is relatively simple to operate and can simplify the assembly process of the bracket 124 and the protective shell body 121.

[0062] When the two ends of the rotating shaft 123 are respectively connected to the two opposite side walls of the receiving groove 121C, the length of the rotating shaft 123 along the axial direction of the rotating shaft 123 will be greater than the length of the clamping groove 1242A. Figure 8 , Figure 8 The second schematic diagram of the connection relationship between the bracket and the rotating shaft provided in some embodiments of the present application shows that the snap-in groove 1242A should penetrate the connecting portion 1242 along the axial direction of the rotating shaft 123 to facilitate the connection between the snap-in groove 1242A and the rotating shaft 123.

[0063] When the peripheral wall of the rotating shaft 123 is connected to the connecting block 121D, along the axial direction of the rotating shaft 123, the length of the rotating shaft 123 may be greater than or less than the length of the snap-in groove 1242A. At this time, along the axial direction of the rotating shaft 123, the snap-in groove 1242A may pass through the connecting portion 1242 or may not pass through the connecting portion 1242.

[0064] In order to ensure the connection effect between the clamping groove 1242A and the rotating shaft 123, in some embodiments, at least a portion of the rotating shaft 123 may be interference fit with the clamping groove 1242A. Figure 8 The radial dimension of the rotating shaft 123 is smaller than the distance between the two sidewalls of the clamping groove 1242A. The second direction is perpendicular to the axial direction of the rotating shaft 123 and perpendicular to the first direction.

[0065] In this way, at least a portion of the rotating shaft 123 is located in the snap-fit ​​groove 1242A, so that the rotating shaft 123 and the connecting part 1242 have better connection strength. When the bracket 124 is subjected to less force, the bracket 124 will not move relative to the rotating shaft 123, thereby preventing the rotating shaft 123 from withdrawing from the snap-fit ​​groove 1242A from the opening of the snap-fit ​​groove 1242A, thereby ensuring the connection effect between the rotating shaft 123 and the connecting part 1242.

[0066] Furthermore, when the bracket 124 is subjected to a small force, the bracket 124 will not rotate relative to the rotating shaft 123 , thereby preventing the bracket 124 from shaking randomly and affecting the user experience of the protective shell 12 .

[0067] In some other embodiments, see Fig. 9 , Fig. 9 One of the structural schematic diagrams of the bracket provided in some embodiments of the present application. Fig. 9 In the direction Y shown in FIG. 1 , at least one side wall of the snap-in groove 1242A is formed with a groove 1242B. It should be noted that, along the second direction, the snap-in groove 1242A has two side walls, one of which is formed with a groove 1242B, or both of which are formed with grooves 1242B.

[0068] The groove 1242B extends along the axial direction of the rotating shaft 123, and part of the rotating shaft 123 is located in the groove 1242B. In this way, when at least part of the rotating shaft 123 is located in the clamping groove 1242A, part of the rotating shaft 123 is located in the groove 1242B, and the wall plate where the side wall surface of the groove 1242B is located can limit the rotating shaft 123 to prevent the rotating shaft 123 from withdrawing from the clamping groove 1242A, thereby ensuring the connection effect between the rotating shaft 123 and the connecting portion 1242.

[0069] At this time, the rotating shaft 123 can be loosely matched with the groove 1242B, that is, along the first direction, the size of the groove 1242B is larger than the radial size of the rotating shaft 123 .

[0070] The rotating shaft 123 can also be interference fit with the groove 1242B, that is, along the second direction, the snap-in groove 1242A has two side walls. When the groove 1242B is formed on one of the side walls of the snap-in groove 1242A, the distance between the other side wall of the snap-in groove 1242A (the side wall without the groove 1242B) and the bottom wall of the groove 1242B is smaller than the radial dimension of the rotating shaft 123; when the two side walls of the snap-in groove 1242A are both formed with grooves 1242B, the distance between the bottom walls of the two grooves 1242B is smaller than the radial dimension of the rotating shaft 123.

[0071] When the rotating shaft 123 and the groove 1242B are interference fit, the peripheral wall of the rotating shaft 123 and the wall plate where the side wall of the groove 1242B is located will abut against each other, thereby enhancing the connection strength between the rotating shaft 123 and the connecting part 1242, thereby further improving the connection effect between the rotating shaft 123 and the connecting part 1242.

[0072] Among them, when the two ends of the rotating shaft 123 are respectively connected to the two opposite side wall surfaces of the storage groove 121C, along the axial direction of the rotating shaft 123, the length of the rotating shaft 123 is greater than the length of the groove 1242B. At this time, along the axial direction of the rotating shaft 123, the groove 1242B should pass through the connecting part 1242 to facilitate the connection between the groove 1242B and the rotating shaft 123.

[0073] When the peripheral wall of the rotating shaft 123 is connected to the connecting block 121D, along the axial direction of the rotating shaft 123, the length of the rotating shaft 123 may be greater than the length of the groove 1242B, or may be less than the length of the groove 1242B. At this time, along the axial direction of the rotating shaft 123, the groove 1242B may pass through the connecting portion 1242, or may not pass through the connecting portion 1242.

[0074] The support portion 1241 is used to contact a platform such as a desktop or the ground, so that the bracket 124 supports the protective shell body 121, thereby supporting the electronic device 11. Specifically, the bracket 124 can rotate around the axis of the rotating shaft 123, so that the bracket 124 switches between the storage state and the supporting state.

[0075] See also Fig.10 , Fig.10 A schematic diagram of the structure of the bracket in the protective shell provided in some embodiments of the present application when it is in a stored state. When the electronic device 11 is not in use or is held in the hand for use, the bracket 124 is in a stored state. At this time, the connecting portion 1242 and the supporting portion 1241 of the bracket 124 can be stored against the protective shell body 121. In some examples, the connecting portion 1242 and the supporting portion 1241 are both stored against the bottom wall of the accommodating cavity 121A. Specifically, a storage groove 121C can be opened on the outer surface of the wall panel where the bottom wall of the accommodating cavity 121A is located, and the connecting portion 1242 and the supporting portion 1241 are stored in the storage groove 121C.

[0076] In this way, when the bracket 124 is in the storage state, the distance between the support part 1241 of the bracket 124 and the protective shell body 121 is smaller, so that the space occupied by the bracket 124 and the protective shell body 121 as a whole is smaller, thereby facilitating the electronic device 11 and the protective shell 12 to be held in the hand together, or facilitating the electronic device 11 and the protective shell 12 to be stored in a pocket or bag together.

[0077] See also Fig.11 , Fig.11A schematic diagram of the structure of the bracket in the protective shell provided in some embodiments of the present application when in a supporting state. When the electronic device 11 is used for video or live broadcast, the bracket 124 can be rotated around the axis of the rotating shaft 123, so that the end of the connecting portion 1242 away from the snap-in groove 1242A and the supporting portion 1241 are gradually away from the protective shell body 121 along the bottom wall of the accommodating cavity 121A away from the electronic device 11, so that the bracket 124 is rotated to the supporting state. At this time, the first direction and the bottom wall of the accommodating cavity 121A form an angle greater than 0° and less than 180°, that is, the bracket 124 is inclined relative to the protective shell body 121.

[0078] In this way, an edge position (such as Fig.11 The edge M) in the protective shell body 121 can contact a platform such as a desktop or the ground, and then the protective shell body 121 is tilted so that the supporting portion 1241 of the bracket 124 also contacts a platform such as a desktop or the ground, so that the edge M of the protective shell body 121 and the supporting portion 1241 form a supporting point to support the protective shell 12, thereby supporting the electronic device 11 covered by the protective shell 12.

[0079] When at least a portion of the rotating shaft 123 is interference-fitted with the clamping groove 1242A, in order to facilitate the bracket 124 to rotate around the axis of the rotating shaft 123, the wall plate where at least one side wall surface of the clamping groove 1242A in the second direction is located can be an elastic structure. In this way, when the bracket 124 needs to switch between the supporting state and the storage state, a thrust can be applied to the supporting portion 1241 of the bracket 124 along the second direction to rotate the bracket 124 around the axis of the rotating shaft 123. During this process, the wall plate where at least one side wall surface of the clamping groove 1242A is located will be squeezed against the rotating shaft 123 and elastically deformed. Under the elastic deformation of the wall plate where at least one side wall surface of the clamping groove 1242A is located, the friction between the wall plate where the side wall surface of the clamping groove 1242A is located and the rotating shaft 123 will be relatively reduced, thereby facilitating the bracket 124 to smoothly rotate around the axis of the rotating shaft 123, and then the bracket 124 can be smoothly switched between the supporting state and the storage state.

[0080] Furthermore, when the bracket 124 rotates to the supporting state, the wall plate where at least one side wall of the snap-in groove 1242A is located will abut against the peripheral wall of the rotating shaft 123 under the action of elasticity, so that the rotating shaft 123 and the connecting part 1242 are tightly connected, so that the bracket 124 will not shake in the supporting state, thereby improving the stability of the bracket 124 supporting the electronic device 11.

[0081] It should be noted that, since at least part of the rotating shaft 123 is in interference fit with the clamping groove 1242A, after the bracket 124 rotates around the axis of the rotating shaft 123 at any angle, the wall plate where the side wall surface of the clamping groove 1242A is located can abut against the peripheral wall of the rotating shaft 123, so that the bracket 124 will not rotate relative to the rotating shaft 123 when the force is small, and the bracket 124 is in an inclined state relative to the bottom wall surface of the accommodating cavity 121A, that is, the bracket 124 is in a supporting state. In other words, the angle of rotation of the bracket 124 around the axis of the rotating shaft 123 is different, and the inclined state of the bracket 124 relative to the bottom wall surface of the accommodating cavity 121A is different, that is, the supporting state of the bracket 124 is different.

[0082] In this way, when the bracket 124 is in a supporting state, the inclination of the bracket 124 relative to the protective shell body 121 can be adjusted, thereby adjusting the inclination of the electronic device 11 relative to the horizontal plane, so as to improve the flexibility and applicability of the bracket 124 in supporting the electronic device 11.

[0083] On this basis, please continue to refer to Figure 7 In order to increase the damping force on the bracket 124 during the rotation process around the axis of the rotating shaft 123, a damping member 1231 may be provided on the peripheral wall surface of the rotating shaft 123. The damping member 1231 may be a plurality of protrusions arranged at intervals along the axial direction of the rotating shaft 123. The damping member 1231 may also be a protrusion extending along the axial direction of the rotating shaft. In this case, the surface of the protrusion may be arc-shaped, and the surface of the protrusion is tangent to the peripheral wall surface of the rotating shaft 123, that is, the cross section of the protrusion and the rotating shaft 123 as a whole may be cam-shaped. The cross section is a cross section perpendicular to the axis of the rotating shaft 123.

[0084] In this way, during the process of the bracket 124 rotating around the axis of the rotating shaft 123 along the bottom wall of the accommodating chamber 121A in the direction away from the electronic device 11, in the second direction, the overall size of the rotating shaft 123 and the damping member 1231 gradually increases relative to the distance between the two side wall surfaces of the snap-in groove 1242A. Therefore, the abutment force between the rotating shaft 123 and the wall panel where the two side wall surfaces of the snap-in groove 1242A are located becomes greater and greater, so that the damping of the bracket 124 becomes greater and greater, and then the connection strength between the rotating shaft 123 and the connecting part 1242 becomes greater and greater, so as to improve the connection effect between the rotating shaft 123 and the connecting part 1242.

[0085] During the long-term use of the protective shell 12, the bracket 124 will switch between the supporting state and the storage state many times, which will cause the bracket 124 to rotate around the axis of the shaft 123 many times. This will cause the connection between the bracket 124 and the snap-in groove 1242A to loosen. If the force applied to the bracket 124 is uneven when rotating the bracket 124, it will easily cause the shaft 123 to withdraw from the snap-in groove 1242A.

[0086] Based on this, see Fig.12 , Fig.12 The protective shell 12 further includes a stopper 125. The stopper 125 may be a plate-shaped structure, a rod-shaped structure, a block-shaped structure, etc.

[0087] The stopper 125 is connected to the bracket 124, and at least a portion of the stopper 125 is located on the side of the rotating shaft 123 away from the bottom wall surface of the clamping groove 1242A. Exemplarily, the stopper 125 is connected to a side wall surface of the clamping groove 1242A in the second direction, and the stopper 125 is entirely located at the opening of the clamping groove 1242A, so that the stopper 125 is entirely located on the side of the rotating shaft 123 away from the bottom wall surface of the clamping groove 1242A. Exemplarily, a portion of the limit member 125 can be connected to the outer side surface of the wall panel where a side wall surface of the snap-in groove 1242A in the second direction is located (i.e., the surface of the wall panel where a side wall surface of the snap-in groove 1242A in the second direction is located that is away from the side wall surface of the snap-in groove 1242A in the second direction), and another portion of the limit member 125 is located on the side of the rotating shaft 123 that is away from the bottom wall surface of the snap-in groove 1242A, so that the portion of the limit member 125 is located on the side of the rotating shaft 123 that is away from the bottom wall surface of the snap-in groove 1242A.

[0088] In this way, the limiting member 125 can limit the side of the rotating shaft 123 away from the bottom wall surface of the snap-in groove 1242A. When the rotating shaft 123 withdraws from the opening of the snap-in groove 1242A, the limiting member 125 can block the rotating shaft 123, thereby preventing the rotating shaft 123 from withdrawing from the snap-in groove 1242A, and then limiting at least a portion of the rotating shaft 123 in the snap-in groove 1242A.

[0089] When the connection between the bracket 124 and the snap-in slot 1242A becomes loose, due to the limiting action of the limiting member 125 on the rotating shaft 123, the bracket 124 will not withdraw from the snap-in slot 1242A even if the force is uneven, thereby ensuring the connection effect between the bracket 124 and the connecting part 1242 to improve the user experience.

[0090] In some embodiments, the stopper 125 may include but is not limited to at least one of a metal material and a hard plastic material, wherein the metal material may be steel, aluminum, etc. In other words, the stopper 125 may be made of steel, or the stopper 125 may be made of aluminum, or the stopper 125 may be made of a hard plastic material.

[0091] The limiter 125 can be made of steel and aluminum, or steel and hard plastic, or aluminum and hard plastic. Exemplarily, the limiter 125 can be a plate-like structure, and the limiter 125 includes two layers of plates that are sequentially bonded, one of which is a hard plastic plate, and the other is an aluminum plate or a steel plate. Exemplarily, the limiter 125 can be a plate-like structure, and the limiter 125 includes three layers of plates that are sequentially bonded, the first layer of plates is a hard plastic plate, the second layer of plates is a steel plate or an aluminum plate, and the third layer of plates is a hard plastic plate, wherein the second layer of plates is located between the first layer of plates and the third layer of plates.

[0092] The stopper 125 can also be made of steel, aluminum and hard plastic. For example, the stopper 125 can be a plate-like structure, and the stopper 125 includes three layers of plates that are sequentially bonded, the first layer of plates is a hard plastic plate, the second layer of plates is a steel plate, and the third layer of plates is an aluminum plate, wherein the second layer of plates is located between the first layer of plates and the third layer of plates.

[0093] The limiting member 125 is made of the above-mentioned material to ensure the strength of the limiting member 125 , so as to improve the blocking effect of the limiting member 125 on the rotating shaft 123 , thereby ensuring the limiting effect of the limiting member 125 on the rotating shaft 123 .

[0094] In some embodiments, please refer to Fig.12 , along the second direction (such as Fig.12 In the direction Y shown in FIG. 1 , one side surface of the connection portion 1242 is the installation side surface. Specifically, along the second direction, the connection portion 1242 has two side surfaces, namely, a first side surface 1242C and a second side surface 1242D. The installation side surface can be the first side surface 1242C or the second side surface 1242D. Among them, the outer wall surface of the wall plate where one side wall surface of the clamping groove 1242A in the second direction is located is located on the first side surface 1242C, and the outer wall surface of the wall plate where the other side wall surface of the clamping groove 1242A in the second direction is located is located on the second side surface 1242D.

[0095] The limiting member 125 includes a connecting plate 1251 and a limiting plate 1252. The connecting plate 1251 can be at least one of a steel plate, an aluminum plate, and a hard plastic plate. The limiting plate 1252 can also be at least one of a steel plate, an aluminum plate, and a hard plastic plate.

[0096] The connecting plate 1251 is connected to the installation side, that is, the connecting plate 1251 is connected to the first side 1242C, or the connecting plate 1251 is connected to the second side 1242D.

[0097] The connecting plate 1251 may be directly connected to the first side surface 1242C, or the connecting plate 1251 may be directly connected to the second side surface 1242D. A mounting groove 1242E may also be provided on the first side surface 1242C, or a mounting groove 1242E may be provided on the second side surface 1242D, and the connecting plate 1251 is provided in the mounting groove 1242E. By providing the connecting plate 1251 in the mounting groove 1242E, the size of the connecting plate 1251 and the bracket 124 as a whole in the second direction can be reduced, thereby reducing the volume of the protective shell 12, so as to facilitate the carrying of the protective shell 12.

[0098] The connecting plate 1251 may be connected to the first side surface 1242C or the second side surface 1242D by means of snap connection, screw connection, etc., or by other means.

[0099] It should be noted that when the thickness dimension of the connecting portion 1242 in the second direction is relatively thin (i.e., the spacing between the first side surface 1242C and the second side surface 1242D is relatively small), and the thickness of the connecting plate 1251 is relatively small, if the connecting portion 1242 and the connecting plate 1251 are screwed together by bolts, screws, etc., the depth of the threaded hole opened on the connecting portion 1242 or the connecting plate 1251 is relatively small, and the number of threads in the threaded hole is relatively small. When the bolts, screws, etc. are connected to the threaded hole, the connection strength is relatively small, which may easily cause the connecting plate 1251 to fall off from the connecting portion 1242.

[0100] In order to avoid the above situation, in some examples, the connecting plate 1251 is bonded to the first side surface 1242C, or the connecting plate 1251 is bonded to the second side surface 1242D. For example, the connecting plate 1251 is attached to the first side surface 1242C by glue. By connecting the connecting plate 1251 to the first side surface 1242C or the second side surface 1242D by bonding, the connection process of the connecting plate 1251 and the connecting portion 1242 can be simplified, thereby facilitating the connection of the connecting plate 1251 and the connecting portion 1242. In addition, the bonding area between the connecting plate 1251 and the connecting portion 1242 can be increased, for example, by bonding one side surface of the connecting plate 1251 in the thickness direction to the first side surface 1242C or the second side surface 1242D, so as to improve the bonding strength between the connecting plate 1251 and the connecting portion 1242, thereby preventing the connecting plate 1251 from falling off from the connecting portion 1242.

[0101] For other examples, see Fig.13 , Fig.13 A schematic diagram of the structure of the position limiting member provided in some embodiments of the present application. A through hole 1251A is provided on the connecting plate 1251. Fig.14 , Fig.14The second structural schematic diagram of the bracket provided in some embodiments of the present application. The bracket 124 also includes a connecting column 1243. The connecting column 1243 is used to pass through the through hole 1251A and connect to the connecting plate 1251.

[0102] For details, please refer to Fig.15 , Fig.15 for Fig.14 The schematic diagram of the structure at B in the middle is enlarged. The connecting column 1243 includes a through section 1243A and a limiting section 1243B. The through section 1243A is connected to the first side 1242C, and the through section 1243A passes through the through hole 1251A, and the limiting section 1243B is connected to the through section 1243A and contacts the surface of the connecting plate 1251 away from the first side 1242C. Alternatively, the through section 1243A is connected to the second side 1242D, and the through section 1243A passes through the through hole 1251A, and the limiting section 1243B is connected to the through section 1243A and contacts the surface of the connecting plate 1251 away from the second side 1242D.

[0103] Here, the connection of the through section 1243A to the first side surface 1242C is taken as an example for description.

[0104] The penetration section 1243A and the limiting section 1243B may be separate structures, and in this case, the penetration section 1243A and the limiting section 1243B may be connected by screw connection, clamping connection, etc. When the connecting plate 1251 is connected to the first side surface 1242C, the connecting plate 1251 may be aligned with the first side surface 1242C first, and the penetration section 1243A of the connecting column 1243 may pass through the through hole 1251A on the connecting plate 1251 from the connecting plate 1251 toward the side of the connecting portion 1242, and then the limiting section 1243B of the connecting column 1243 may be connected to the penetration section 1243A, so that the limiting section 1243B contacts the surface of the connecting plate 1251 away from the first side surface 1242C, and specifically, the limiting section 1243B may abut against the surface of the connecting plate 1251 away from the first side surface 1242C.

[0105] The penetration section 1243A and the limiting section 1243B may also be an integral structure, in which case the penetration section 1243A may be connected to the first side surface 1242C by screwing, clamping, etc. When the connecting plate 1251 is connected to the first side surface 1242C, the connecting plate 1251 may be aligned with the first side surface 1242C first, and then the penetration section 1243A may be passed through the through hole 1251A on the connecting plate 1251 from the side of the connecting plate 1251 away from the connecting portion 1242, and the penetration section 1243A may be connected to the first side surface 1242C, so that the limiting section 1243B may contact the surface of the connecting plate 1251 away from the first side surface 1242C, and specifically, the limiting section 1243B may abut against the surface of the connecting plate 1251 away from the first side surface 1242C.

[0106] In this way, the first side surface 1242C can limit the connecting plate 1251 from one side of the connecting plate 1251, and the limiting section 1243B can limit the connecting plate 1251 from the other side opposite to the connecting plate 1251, so that the connecting plate 1251 and the connecting part 1242 can be stably connected together to ensure the connection effect between the connecting plate 1251 and the connecting part 1242.

[0107] It should be noted that before connecting the connecting plate 1251 through the connecting column 1243, the connecting plate 1251 can be bonded to the first side surface 1242C first. In this way, the connection strength between the connecting plate 1251 and the connecting portion 1242 can be further improved to ensure the connection effect between the connecting plate 1251 and the connecting portion 1242.

[0108] The number of through holes 1251A and the number of connecting pillars 1243 can both be multiple, and the multiple through holes 1251A correspond to the multiple connecting pillars 1243 one by one, and the through section 1243A of one connecting pillar 1243 passes through one through hole 1251A.

[0109] In some other examples, a hot melt hole is provided on the connection plate 1251, and the bracket 124 further includes a hot melt column. The hot melt column includes a connection section and a deformation section. The connection section is connected to the first side surface 1242C and passes through the hot melt hole, and the deformation section is connected to the connection section and contacts the surface of the connection plate 1251 away from the first side surface 1242C. Alternatively, the connection section is connected to the second side surface 1242D and passes through the hot melt hole, and the deformation section is connected to the connection section and contacts the surface of the connection plate 1251 away from the second side surface 1242D.

[0110] Here, the example in which the connecting section is connected to the first side surface 1242C is used for description.

[0111] When the connecting plate 1251 is connected to the first side surface 1242C, the connecting plate 1251 can be aligned with the first side surface 1242C first, and the hot melt column can be passed through the hot melt hole from the side of the connecting plate 1251 toward the connecting portion 1242, so that the deformation section of the hot melt column is located on the side of the connecting plate 1251 away from the connecting portion 1242, and then the deformation section of the hot melt column is heated to deform the deformation section due to the heat, so that the deformation section contacts the surface of the connecting plate 1251 away from the first side surface 1242C, so as to realize the connection between the connecting plate 1251 and the connecting portion 1242.

[0112] In this way, the first side surface 1242C can limit the connecting plate 1251 from one side of the connecting plate 1251, and the deformation section can limit the connecting plate 1251 from the other side opposite to the connecting plate 1251, so that the connecting plate 1251 and the connecting part 1242 can be stably connected together to ensure the connection effect between the connecting plate 1251 and the connecting part 1242.

[0113] It should be noted that before connecting the connecting plate 1251 through the hot melt column, the connecting plate 1251 can be bonded to the first side surface 1242C first. In this way, the connection strength between the connecting plate 1251 and the connecting part 1242 can be further improved to ensure the connection effect between the connecting plate 1251 and the connecting part 1242.

[0114] The number of the hot melt holes and the number of the hot melt columns can both be multiple, and the multiple hot melt holes correspond to the multiple hot melt columns one by one, and one hot melt column passes through one hot melt hole.

[0115] Please continue reading Fig.12 The limiting plate 1252 is connected to the connecting plate 1251, and at least a part of the limiting plate 1252 is located on the side of the bottom wall of the rotating shaft 123 away from the clamping groove 1242A. The limiting plate 1252 is used to limit the side of the bottom wall of the rotating shaft 123 away from the clamping groove 1242A. The limiting plate 1252 and the connecting plate 1251 can be an integral structure, or can be connected by screw connection, welding, clamping, etc. The limiting plate 1252 can be an L-shaped plate, or an arc extending along the circumference of the rotating shaft 123, or other shapes.

[0116] Since the connecting plate 1251 is connected to the first side 1242C, or the connecting plate 1251 is connected to the second side 1242D, and the first side 1242C and the second side 1242D are less restricted by the space at the rotating shaft 123 and the snap-in groove 1242A, the limiting plate 1252 is connected to the connecting plate 1251. When installing the limiting plate 1252, it is only necessary to place part of the limiting plate 1252 on the side of the bottom wall of the rotating shaft 123 away from the snap-in groove 1242A, and then connect the connecting plate 1251 to the first side 1242C or the second side 1242D. In this way, the space restriction of the limiting plate 1252 at the rotating shaft 123 and the snap-in groove 1242A can be reduced during the installation of the limiting plate 1252, thereby facilitating the installation of the limiting plate 1252.

[0117] In some embodiments, in order to make the limiting plate 1252 closer to the rotating shaft 123, so that the limiting plate 1252 has a better limiting effect on the rotating shaft 123, please continue to refer to Fig.14, the end surface of the connecting portion 1242 away from the supporting portion 1241 is formed with an avoidance notch 1242G. Specifically, the avoidance notch 1242G is formed on the end surface of the wall plate (for the convenience of description, the wall plate is named the first wall plate 1242F) where one side wall surface of the clamping groove 1242A in the second direction is located away from the supporting portion 1241, and the outer wall surface of the first wall plate 1242F is a part of the first side surface 1242C, or the outer wall surface of the first wall plate 1242F is a part of the second side surface 1242D. Among them, the outer wall surface of the first wall plate 1242F is the surface of the first wall plate 1242F away from the clamping groove 1242A.

[0118] The avoidance notch 1242G extends from the installation side to the wall surface of the clamping groove 1242A. That is, when the connecting plate 1251 is connected to the first side 1242C, the avoidance notch 1242G extends from the first side 1242C to the wall surface of the clamping groove 1242A; when the connecting plate 1251 is connected to the second side 1242D, the avoidance notch 1242G extends from the second side 1242D to the wall surface of the clamping groove 1242A.

[0119] Part of the limiting plate 1252 is located in the avoidance gap 1242G, that is, one end of the limiting plate 1252 connected to the connecting plate 1251 is located in the avoidance gap 1242G. In this way, when the rotating shaft 123 and the clamping groove 1242A are interference-fitted, the distance between the limiting plate 1252 and the rotating shaft 123 is smaller than the thickness of the first wall plate 1242F, that is, the distance between the limiting plate 1252 and the rotating shaft 123 is small. When the rotating shaft 123 is about to exit the clamping groove 1242A, the limiting plate 1252 will quickly contact the rotating shaft 123 and block the rotating shaft 123, so that the rotating shaft 123 enters the clamping groove 1242A to ensure the connection effect between the rotating shaft 123 and the connecting portion 1242.

[0120] Furthermore, by partially locating the limiting plate 1252 within the avoidance gap 1242G, the overall dimensions of the limiting plate 1252 and the bracket 124 in the thickness direction of the limiting plate 1252 can be reduced, thereby reducing the overall volume of the limiting plate 1252 and the bracket 124 to facilitate the miniaturized design of the protective shell 12.

[0121] If the avoidance gap 1242G is located at one end of the first wall plate 1242F along the axial direction of the rotation shaft 123 , the avoidance gap 1242G may also extend to the end surface of one end of the first wall plate 1242F along the axial direction of the rotation shaft 123 .

[0122] Also, see Fig.16 , Fig.16The third structural diagram of the bracket provided for some embodiments of the present application. The avoidance notch 1242G can also be replaced by an avoidance groove 1242H. Specifically, the installation side is formed with an avoidance groove 1242H, that is, the first side 1242C is formed with an avoidance groove 1242H, or the second side 1242D is formed with an avoidance groove 1242H.

[0123] The avoidance groove 1242H extends to the end surface of the connecting portion 1242 away from the supporting portion 1241, that is, the avoidance groove 1242H extends to the end surface of the first side wall plate 1242F away from the supporting portion 1241. The avoidance groove 1242H is connected to the installation groove 1242E to facilitate the connection between the connecting plate 1251 and the limiting plate 1252.

[0124] Part of the limiting plate 1252 is located in the avoidance groove 1242H. By part of the limiting plate 1252 being located in the avoidance groove 1242H, the distance between the limiting plate 1252 and the rotating shaft 123 can be made smaller, so as to ensure the limiting effect of the limiting plate 1252 on the rotating shaft 123. In addition, part of the limiting plate 1252 is located in the avoidance groove 1242H, which can also reduce the overall volume of the limiting plate 1252 and the bracket 124, so as to facilitate the miniaturization design of the protective shell 12.

[0125] In some embodiments, see Fig.17 , Fig.17 Schematic diagram of the connection relationship between the stopper and the rotating shaft provided in some embodiments of the present application. There is a gap between the stopper plate 1252 and the rotating shaft 123. In this way, when the stopper plate 1252 rotates around the axis of the rotating shaft 123 along with the bracket 124, the stopper plate 1252 will not contact the rotating shaft 123, thereby avoiding the wear of the rotating shaft 123 caused by the friction between the stopper plate 1252 and the rotating shaft 123, thereby improving the service life of the rotating shaft 123.

[0126] In some embodiments, please refer to Fig.12 In order to improve the stability of the limiting member 125 when limiting the rotation shaft 123, the limiting member 125 may include a plurality of limiting plates 1252. The plurality of limiting plates 1252 are all connected to the connecting plate 1251 and are arranged at intervals along the axial direction of the rotation shaft 123. In this way, along the axial direction of the rotation shaft 123, the plurality of limiting plates 1252 can limit different positions of the rotation shaft 123. If the bracket 124 is subjected to uneven force when rotating around the axis of the rotation shaft 123, at least one limiting plate 1252 can block the rotation shaft 123, thereby preventing the rotation shaft 123 from exiting the clamping groove 1242A, thereby improving the stability of the limiting member 125 limiting the rotation shaft 123.

[0127] On this basis, please continue to refer to Fig.13The connecting plate 1251 includes a fixed plate 1251B and a plurality of transition plates 1251C. The fixed plate 1251B is connected to the first side surface 1242C, or the fixed plate 1251B is connected to the second side surface 1242D. The plurality of transition plates 1251C correspond to the plurality of limit plates 1252 one by one, and one transition plate 1251C connects one limit plate 1252 and the fixed plate 1251B.

[0128] When the fixing plate 1251H is connected to the first side surface 1242C, the transition plate 1251C may be disconnected from the first side surface 1242C, or may be connected to the first side surface 1242C by bonding, clamping, etc. When the fixing plate 1251H is connected to the second side surface 1242D, the transition plate 1251C may be disconnected from the second side surface 1242D, or may be connected to the second side surface 1242D by bonding, clamping, etc.

[0129] By providing the transition plate 1251C, the connection strength between the connecting plate 1251 and the connecting portion 1242 can be ensured, and the material of the connecting plate 1251 can be saved to reduce the cost.

[0130] In addition, when the first side surface 1242C is formed with a mounting groove 1242E, or the second side surface 1242D is formed with a mounting groove 1242E, please continue to refer to Fig.14 The mounting groove 1242E may include a first sub-mounting groove 1242M and a plurality of second sub-mounting grooves 1242N. The fixing plate 1251B is disposed in the first sub-mounting groove 1242M, the plurality of transition plates 1251C correspond to the plurality of second sub-mounting grooves 1242N one by one, and one transition plate 1251C is disposed in one second sub-mounting groove 1242N.

[0131] At this time, multiple second sub-mounting grooves 1242N are located on the outer wall surface of the first wall plate 1242F. Since multiple transition plates 1251C are arranged at axial intervals along the rotating shaft 123, multiple second sub-mounting grooves 1242N are also arranged at axial intervals along the rotating shaft 123. This can avoid the first wall plate 1242F being thinner as a whole, so as to ensure the strength of the first wall plate 1242F, thereby ensuring the connection effect between the rotating shaft 123 and the connecting part 1242.

[0132] In the description of this specification, specific features, structures, materials or characteristics may be combined in an appropriate manner in any one or more embodiments or examples.
