The electrochromic layer 20 is disposed on the back of the cover body 10, that is, the side of the cover body 10 facing the display screen 30, and the electrochromic layer 20 is disposed relative to the invisible area 12 of the cover body 10, so that the invisible area 12 of the cover body 10 presents different colors in different usage scenarios.

[0025] Further, refer to Figure 2 The electrochromic layer 20 is bonded to the back of the cover body 10 , and an optical adhesive 40 for bonding and fixing is disposed between the electrochromic layer 20 and the cover body 10 .

[0026] Reference Figure 3The electrochromic layer 20 includes a transparent conductive layer 21, an ion storage layer 22, an electrolyte layer 23 and a color-changing material layer 24 arranged in sequence. Among them, the transparent conductive layer 21 is conductive and transparent. The transparent conductive layer 21 is made of ITO conductive material. The transparent conductive layer 21 is used to receive an external voltage to conduct electricity to the color-changing material layer 24 so as to change color. The color-changing material layer 24 is a layer that changes the color of the electrochromic layer 20. The color-changing material completes the corresponding color-changing operation according to the electronic conditions provided by the transparent conductive layer 21. The color-changing material layer 24 is mainly an anode color-changing material layer 24 or a cathode color-changing material layer 24. Different color-changing materials make the color-changing material layer 24 present different colors.

[0027] Reference Figure 2 A driving main board 50 is provided on the side of the display screen 30 away from the cover body 10, and the driving main board 50 is used to control the display of the display screen 30.

[0030] Reference Figure 2, a controller 80 is provided on the driving main board 50, and the controller 80 is electrically connected to the main screen FPC31 and the color-changing FPC60. The controller 80 is used to output corresponding voltage values ​​to the electrochromic layer 20 according to different use states of the display screen 30, so that the electrochromic layer 20 changes color accordingly. When the display screen 30 is in use, the controller 80 determines the bright screen of the display screen 30 according to the signal of the main screen FPC31, so as to output the corresponding voltage to the color-changing FPC60, so that the transparent conductive layer 21 transmits the voltage value to the color-changing material layer 24, so that the electrochromic layer 20 appears transparent, so that the invisible area 12 of the cover body 10 appears transparent. When the display screen 30 is off, the controller 80 makes the electrochromic layer 20 appear black according to the off screen of the display screen 30, so that the invisible area 12 of the cover body 10 appears black, thereby achieving an integrated black effect. The controller 80 can also output different voltage values ​​according to different usage states of the display screen 30 to make the electrochromic layer 20 present different colors, so that the invisible area 12 of the cover body 10 presents different colors to adapt to color changes in different usage scenarios.
