[0031] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0032] See also Figures 1 to 6 , an electronic device protective shell 100 provided by an embodiment of the utility model may specifically include, for example, an outer shell 11 and an inner shell 12. The outer shell 11 and the inner shell 12 are connected to form the electronic device protective shell 100, and an airbag cavity 101 is formed between the outer shell 11 and the inner shell 12, and the airbag cavity 101 can provide better protection for the electronic device. When the electronic device protective shell 100 is sleeved on the electronic device, the inner shell 12 may, for example, contact the electronic device, and the outer shell 11 is located on the side of the inner shell 12 away from the electronic device.

[0033] For example, an operation area may be provided on the electronic device protective shell 10, and the airbag cavity 101 is provided on the operation area, and a key operation structure is provided on the operation area corresponding to the electronic device key. In one embodiment of the present embodiment, the operation area may be, for example, the side of the electronic device protective shell 10, for example, the entire side frame area, and the airbag cavity 101 is formed between the inner shell 12 and the outer shell 11 of the operation area, and the key operation structure is also located on the operation area. Of course, the operation area may also be, for example, the backplane area, and the present embodiment is not limited thereto. The key operation structure may, for example, include a key through hole 111 and a key operation part 121. A key operation part 121 is provided on the inner shell 12 corresponding to the electronic device key, and a key through hole 111 is provided on the outer shell 11 corresponding to the key operation part 121 to expose the key operation part 121. Specifically, a key through hole 111 may be provided on the outer shell 11, for example, at a position corresponding to the electronic device key, and the position corresponding to the key through hole 111 on the inner shell 12 is the key operation part 121. The user can press the key operation part 121 through the key through hole 111 to operate the key on the electronic device, and the inner shell 12 can protect the key on the electronic device. Since the thickness of the inner shell 12 is relatively small, the user's finger can be electrically connected to the electronic device key when operating the key operation part 121 to adapt to the upgraded touch key, and can also adapt to the old mechanical key, which solves the problem that the existing airbag protective shell cannot adapt to the inductive key on the electronic device, so that the electronic device protective shell 10 can enhance the protective shell of the electronic device through the airbag cavity 101, and at the same time, it can realize that the key operation structure can adapt to the upgraded touch key, and can also adapt to the old mechanical key.

[0034] In some implementations of this embodiment, the inner shell 12 may include, for example, an inner frame, the outer shell 11 may include, for example, an outer frame, and the electronic device protective shell 100 may also include, for example, a back plate 20, the back plate 20 is connected with the outer frame and the inner frame to form an electronic device accommodating cavity, and the electronic device may be accommodated in the electronic device accommodating cavity, so as to protect the electronic device through the electronic device protective shell 100. The key through hole 111 may be, for example, arranged on the outer frame, and the key operating part 121 is located on the inner frame corresponding to the key through hole 111. In other implementations of this embodiment, the outer shell 11 may include, for example, an outer back plate, the inner shell 12 may include, for example, an outer back plate, the key through hole 111 may be, for example, arranged on the outer back plate, and the key operating part 121 is located on the inner back plate corresponding to the key through hole 111. Of course, the specific positions of the key through hole 111 and the key operating part 121 can be set according to the position of the electronic device key, and this embodiment is not limited thereto.

[0035] See also Figure 6The key through hole 111 may have an inner wall 112, and the inner wall 112 is sealed and connected to the inner shell 12. Specifically, the inner wall 112 may be sealed and connected to the inner shell 12 at one end in contact with the inner shell 12, so that the airbag cavity 101 is sealed to prevent air leakage in the airbag cavity. The inner wall 112 may be sealed and connected to the inner shell 12 at one end in contact with the inner shell 12, for example, by welding, injection molding, bonding, etc.

[0036] See also Figure 7 and Figure 8 The outer surface of the key operation part 121 may be provided with a first groove 1211, and the thickness of the key operation part 121 may be further reduced by providing the first groove 1211, so as to improve the operation efficiency and accuracy of the touch and induction operation. Fig. 9 and Fig.10 The inner surface of the key operation part 121 may be provided with a second groove 1212, and the thickness of the key operation part 121 may be further reduced by providing the second groove 1212, so as to improve the operation efficiency and accuracy of the touch and induction operation. Fig.11 and Fig.12 For example, a first groove 1211 may be provided on the outer surface of the key operating part 121, and a second groove 1212 may be provided on the inner surface of the key operating part 121. By setting the first groove 1211 and the second groove 1212, the thickness of the key operating part 121 can be further reduced to further improve the operating efficiency and accuracy of touch and induction operations.

[0037] In one implementation of this embodiment, the key operation part 121 may be, for example, a conductive structure, which is used to electrically connect two objects in contact with the inner surface and the outer surface of the key operation part 121. Through such a setting, when the user touches the key operation part 121 with a finger, the conductive structure can electrically connect the finger with the electronic device key, so that the user can operate the touch key through the key operation part 121, so that the electronic device protective case 100 can be adapted to the upgraded touch key, and can also be adapted to the old mechanical key, solving the problem that the existing key structure cannot be adapted to the inductive key on the electronic device. By setting the key operation part 121 as a conductive structure, the efficiency and accuracy of touch and inductive operations can be improved.

[0038] See also Fig.13 and Fig.14The key operation part 121 may, for example, be further provided with a plurality of through holes 1213 arranged in an array. When the user's finger presses on the key operation part 121, the finger may contact the electronic device key through the through hole 1213 to realize touch or inductive operation of the electronic device key. Furthermore, the key operation part 121 may, for example, be further provided with a conductive medium. The conductive medium may, for example, be connected to the inner surface and the outer surface of the key operation part 121. The conductive medium is used to electrically connect two objects in contact with the inner surface and the outer surface of the key operation part 121. Through such a setting, when the user touches the key operation part 121 with a finger, the conductive medium can electrically connect the finger with the electronic device key, so that the user can operate the touch key through the key operation part 121. It can adapt to the upgraded touch key, and it can also adapt to the old mechanical key, which solves the problem that the existing key structure cannot adapt to the inductive key on the electronic device.

[0039] In one implementation of this embodiment, the conductive medium may be, for example, disposed in the through hole 1213 and pass through the inner surface and the outer surface of the key operating portion 121, so that the two objects in contact with the inner surface and the outer surface of the key operating portion 121 can be electrically connected through the conductive medium. Specifically, the conductive medium may be, for example, embedded in the through hole 1213. In some implementations, there may be, for example, a plurality of through holes 1213, and there may also be, for example, a plurality of conductive media, and a plurality of conductive media may be embedded in a plurality of through holes 1213. In this embodiment, both the through hole 1213 and the conductive medium may be, for example, circular, and of course, they may also be, for example, other shapes, and this embodiment is not limited thereto.

[0040] In one implementation of the present embodiment, the conductive medium may, for example, include a first conductive medium and a second conductive medium. The first conductive medium may, for example, be coated on the side wall inside the through hole 1213, and the second conductive medium is also coated on the inner and outer surfaces of the key operating part 121 around the through hole 1213. The first conductive medium is connected to the second conductive medium to form a path for current to pass through, so that the two objects in contact with the inner and outer surfaces of the key operating part 121 can be electrically connected through the conductive medium.
