Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the electronic device includes: a housing.

[0021] A battery compartment 10 and an antenna 20 are provided in the shell, and part of the antenna 20 extends to the area where the battery compartment 10 is located, and is opposite to the first side wall 101 of the battery compartment 10. The first side wall 101 of the battery compartment 10 is provided with a bending structure 11, and the part of the antenna 20 extending to the area where the battery compartment 10 is located is opposite to the part of the bending structure 11; the antenna 20 has a signal transmission structure for transmitting signals. In a first direction, the projection of the signal transmission structure extending to the area where the battery compartment 10 is located does not overlap with the projection of the bending structure 11 to meet the antenna clearance requirement of the antenna 20. The first direction is the direction from the battery compartment 10 to the antenna 20.

[0022] In the embodiment of the present application, since the partial antenna 20 extends to the area where the battery compartment 10 is located and is opposite to the first side wall 101 of the battery compartment 10, the first side wall 101 of the battery compartment 10 is provided with a bending structure 11, and the partial antenna 20 extending to the area where the battery compartment 10 is located is opposite to the partial bending structure 11, therefore, the bending structure 11 on the battery compartment 10 can increase the strength of the battery compartment 10, so that the strength of the battery compartment 10 is improved. Since in the first direction, the projection of the signal transmission structure extending to the area where the battery compartment 10 is located does not overlap with the projection of the bending structure 11, therefore, there is a certain space between the signal transmission structure and the bending structure 11, which can meet the antenna clearance requirements of the antenna 20. That is, in the embodiment of the present application, by providing the bending structure 11 on the first side wall 101 of the battery compartment 10, and in the first direction, the projection of the signal transmission structure extending to the area where the battery compartment 10 is located does not overlap with the projection of the bending structure 11, so that the strength of the battery compartment 10 can be improved while meeting the antenna clearance requirements of the antenna 20.

[0023] It should be noted that in the embodiment of the present application, the battery compartment 10 can be formed by stamping aluminum, that is, in the housing of the electronic device, aluminum is directly stamped into the battery compartment 10 through a stamping process. Of course, the battery compartment 10 can also be stamped by other metal materials, for example, the battery compartment 10 is stamped by aluminum alloy. This embodiment of the present application is not limited here.

[0024] In addition, in the embodiment of the present application, the antenna 20 may be a 5G antenna, and the antenna 20 may be in the form of a flexible circuit board.

[0025] In addition, in some embodiments, the antenna 20 may include a first protective layer 21, a signal transmission layer 22 and a second protective layer 23. The first protective layer 21, the signal transmission layer 22 and the second protective layer 23 are stacked in sequence, and the signal transmission layer 22 forms a signal transmission structure. In the first direction, the projection of the first portion 221 of the signal transmission layer 22 does not overlap with the projection of the bending structure 11, and the first portion 221 of the signal transmission layer 22 is: a portion of the signal transmission layer 22 extending to the area where the battery compartment 10 is located.

[0026] Through such an arrangement, the first protective layer 21 and the second protective layer 22 are equivalent to sandwiching the signal transmission layer 22, that is, the signal transmission layer 22 is located between the first protective layer 21 and the second protective layer 22, so that the first protective layer 21 and the second protective layer 22 protect the signal transmission layer 22 and prevent damage to the signal transmission layer 22. In addition, in the first direction, the projection of the first portion 221 of the signal transmission layer 22 does not overlap with the projection of the bending structure 11, so that there is a certain space between the signal transmission layer 22 and the bending structure 11, which can meet the antenna clearance requirements of the antenna 20.

[0027] In addition, in some embodiments, the bending structure 11 may include a first sub-wall 111 and a second sub-wall 112, the first sub-wall 111 is connected to the first side wall 101 of the battery compartment 10, the second sub-wall 112 is connected to the first sub-wall 111, and there is a first gap between the second sub-wall 112 and the first side wall 101 of the battery compartment 10, the second sub-wall 112, the first sub-wall 111 and the first side wall 101 are surrounded to form a U-shaped structure, and there is a second gap between the antenna 20 extending to the area where the battery compartment 10 is located and the second sub-wall 112; in the first direction, the projection of the first part 221 of the signal transmission layer 22 does not overlap with the projection of the second sub-wall 112.

[0028] Since the first sub-wall 111 is connected to the first side wall 101 of the battery compartment 10, the second sub-wall 112 is connected to the first sub-wall 111, and there is a first gap between the second sub-wall 112 and the first side wall 101 of the battery compartment 10, the first side wall 101, the first sub-wall 111 and the second sub-wall 112 of the battery compartment 10 are equivalent to forming a U-shaped structure, so that the strength of the battery compartment 10 formed by stamping aluminum is greatly improved. Since in the first direction, the projection of the first part 221 of the signal transmission layer 22 does not overlap with the projection of the second sub-wall 112, after the first sub-wall 111 and the second sub-wall 112 increase the strength of the battery compartment 10, the space between the signal transmission layer 22 and the second sub-wall 112 can ensure that the antenna 20 has sufficient antenna clearance, without affecting the performance of the antenna 20. That is, by setting the first sub-wall 111 and the second sub-wall 112, and in the first direction, the projection of the first part 221 of the signal transmission layer 22 does not overlap with the projection of the second sub-wall 112, thereby improving the strength of the battery compartment 10 without affecting the performance of the antenna 20.

[0029] It should be noted that when the battery compartment 10 is formed by stamping aluminum, during the process of processing the battery compartment 10 , the aluminum can be directly stamped into the first sub-wall 111 and the second sub-wall 112 through a stamping process.

[0030] In addition, in the embodiment of the present application, the second sub-wall 112 may have a target portion 1121, and the target portion 1121 is opposite to the antenna in the first direction, that is, the target portion 1121 is a portion opposite to the antenna 20 in the first direction. At this time, in the first direction, the projection of the target portion 1121 does not overlap with the projection of the signal transmission layer 22.

[0031] In addition, in some embodiments, the distance between the portion where the second sub-wall 112 extends to the battery compartment 10 and the first portion 221 of the signal transmission layer 22 is L1, and satisfies: L1 ≥ 1.5 mm.

[0032] By such a setting, the distance between the signal transmission layer 22 and the portion where the second sub-wall 112 extends to the battery compartment 10 can meet the antenna clearance requirement of the antenna 20 without affecting the performance of the antenna 20. That is, by setting L1≥1.5mm, the performance of the antenna 20 can be guaranteed.

[0033] It should be noted that L1 can be any value greater than or equal to 1.5 mm, for example, L1 is 1 mm, for example, L1 is 5 mm, for example, L1 is 3 mm, for example, L1 is 1 mm. This embodiment of the present application does not limit this.

[0034] In addition, in some embodiments, the height of the portion of the second sub-wall 112 opposite to the antenna 20 is L2, and the thickness of the second sub-wall 112 is L3, satisfying: L2≥2L3, wherein the height of the portion of the second sub-wall 112 opposite to the antenna 20 is: the distance between the two opposite ends of the portion of the second sub-wall 112 extending to the battery compartment 10 along the second direction, and the second direction is the direction from the compartment opening to the bottom of the battery compartment 10. By setting L2≥2L3, the portion of the second sub-wall 112 opposite to the antenna 20 can meet the strength requirement, which is equivalent to making the target portion 1121 of the second sub-wall 112 meet the strength requirement, so that the strength of the battery compartment 10 can be effectively improved.

[0035] It should be noted that when the battery compartment 10 is formed by a stamping process, that is, when the first sub-wall 111 and the second sub-wall 112 are directly stamped, the thickness of the first sub-wall 111 is equal to the thickness of the second sub-wall 112. In addition, after the first sub-wall 111 and the second sub-wall 112 are stamped, a portion of the second sub-wall 112 can be cut off in the direction of the height of the second sub-wall 112 by a cutting process, thereby forming a target portion 1121, and the height of the target portion 1121 is less than the height of the battery compartment 10, and the height of the portion of the second sub-wall 112 that is not cut off is equal to the height of the battery compartment 10.

[0036] In addition, in some embodiments, the height of the first portion 221 of the signal transmission layer 22 is a fixed value, and the height of the first portion 221 is: the distance between the two opposite ends of the first portion 221 along the second direction, and the second direction is the direction from the compartment opening to the bottom of the battery compartment 10.

[0037] Since the first portion 221 is offset from the target portion 1121 of the second sub-wall 112 , and the height of the first portion 221 is a fixed value, the distance between the target portion 1121 and the first portion 221 is a fixed value, so that the antenna clearance can meet the requirements at the first portion 221 .

[0038] It should be noted that the signal transmission layer 22 may further include a second portion 222 , the second portion 222 is connected to the first portion 221 , and the second portion 222 is: a portion of the signal transmission layer 22 that does not extend to the area where the battery compartment 10 is located.

[0039] In addition, in some embodiments, the height of the first portion 221 is L4, satisfying: L4 ≥ 0.7 mm.

[0040] By such a setting, the first portion 221 can meet the transmission requirements of the transmission signal of the antenna 20 without affecting the performance of the antenna 20. That is, by setting L4≥0.7mm, the performance of the antenna 20 can be guaranteed.

[0041] It should be noted that L4 can be any value greater than or equal to 0.7 mm, for example, L4 can be 0.7 mm, for example, L4 can be 0.9 mm, for example, L4 can be 1 mm, for example, L4 can be 1.2 mm. This is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0042] In addition, in some embodiments, the first gap is L5, satisfying: L5 ≥ 1.1 mm.

[0043] By such a configuration, the strength of the battery compartment 10 can be effectively improved after the second sub-wall 112 is formed by punching. That is, by setting L5≥0.7 mm, the strength of the battery compartment 10 can be improved.

[0044] It should be noted that L5 can be any value greater than or equal to 1.1 mm, for example, L5 can be 1.1 mm, for example, L5 can be 1.3 mm, for example, L5 can be 1.5 mm, for example, L5 can be 2 mm. This is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0045] In addition, in some embodiments, the second gap is L6, satisfying: L6 ≥ 0.1 mm.

[0046] This arrangement can avoid the antenna 20 from contacting the second sub-wall 112, which would cause the second sub-wall 112 to affect the performance of the antenna 20. That is, by setting L6 ≥ 0.1 mm, the performance of the antenna 20 can be guaranteed.

[0047] It should be noted that L6 can be any value greater than or equal to 0.1 mm, for example, L6 can be 0.1 mm, for example, L6 can be 0.3 mm, for example, L6 can be 0.5 mm, for example, L6 can be 0.8 mm. This embodiment of the application is not limited here.

[0048] In addition, in some embodiments, the width of the signal transmission layer 22 is L7, the width of the first protective layer 21 is L8, and the width of the second protective layer 23 is L9, L7<L8, L8=L9; wherein, the width of the signal transmission layer 22 is: the distance between the two opposite ends of the signal transmission layer 22 in the second direction; the width of the first protective layer 21 is: the distance between the two opposite ends of the first protective layer 21 in the second direction, and the second direction is the direction from the compartment opening to the compartment bottom of the battery compartment 10.

[0049] By setting the width of the signal transmission layer 22 to be smaller than the width of the first protective layer 21, when the antenna 20 is installed in an electronic device and the second protective layer 23 needs to be connected to components in the electronic device, the connection can be facilitated. In addition, when the antenna 20 is formed, it is also convenient for the first protective layer 21 and the second protective layer 23 to clamp the signal transmission layer 22, thereby preventing the signal transmission layer 22 from being exposed on the first protective layer 21 and the second protective layer 23.

[0050] In addition, in some embodiments, the signal transmission layer 22 may be a copper layer. Since copper is moderately priced and has good signal transmission performance, setting the signal transmission layer 22 as a copper layer can reduce the cost of the electronic device while satisfying the performance of the antenna 20.

[0051] Of course, the signal transmission layer 22 may also be made of other metal materials, for example, the signal transmission layer 22 may be made of silver, which is not limited in the present embodiment.

[0052] In the embodiment of the present application, since the partial antenna 20 extends to the area where the battery compartment 10 is located and is opposite to the first side wall 101 of the battery compartment 10, the first side wall 101 of the battery compartment 10 is provided with a bending structure 11, and the partial antenna 20 extending to the area where the battery compartment 10 is located is opposite to the partial bending structure 11, therefore, the bending structure 11 on the battery compartment 10 can increase the strength of the battery compartment 10, so that the strength of the battery compartment 10 is improved. Since in the first direction, the projection of the signal transmission structure extending to the area where the battery compartment 10 is located does not overlap with the projection of the bending structure 11, therefore, there is a certain space between the signal transmission structure and the bending structure 11, which can meet the antenna clearance requirements of the antenna 20. That is, in the embodiment of the present application, by providing the bending structure 11 on the first side wall 101 of the battery compartment 10, and in the first direction, the projection of the signal transmission structure extending to the area where the battery compartment 10 is located does not overlap with the projection of the bending structure 11, so that the strength of the battery compartment 10 can be improved while meeting the antenna clearance requirements of the antenna 20.
