[0031] The present application provides an electronic device.

[0032] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0033] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides an electronic device, which can be a laptop, a mobile phone, a tablet computer, etc. The electronic device mainly includes a body 1 and a protective cover 2. The body 1 is provided with an ink screen, wherein a lot of small "microcapsules" are attached to the surface of the ink screen, encapsulating negatively charged black particles and positively charged white particles. By changing the charge, particles of different colors are arranged in order, thereby presenting a clear black and white visualization effect.

[0034] Specifically, the protective cover 2 is connected to the body 1, and the protective cover 2 is used to cover the first cover 21 of the ink screen to set a visible area 211; wherein the visible area 211 is used to display the information displayed on the ink screen. When the user uses the above electronic device to check the time, power or whether there is a message reminder, he directly watches at least part of the information displayed on the ink screen revealed by the visible area 211, so as to conveniently view the above message, thereby improving the convenience of the user when using.

[0035] It should be noted that the size of the area of ​​the ink screen exposed by the visible area 211 is not limited here. The visible area 211 can expose part of the ink screen; the visible area 211 can also expose the entire area of ​​the ink screen. In this case, the visible panel is a protective film connected to the first set 21, such as a tempered film, a hydrogel film, etc., and the protection and interactive operation of the main body 1 are achieved through the protective film.

[0036] It should also be noted that the ink screen can display information in both the power-on state and the power-off state, especially in the power-off state, the ink screen can also display images and content, so that the information displayed by the ink screen in the power-off state can be revealed through the visible area 211, thereby providing a better experience for users. Since the ink screen has the characteristics of not refreshing information and not consuming power, for example, the ink screen displays "meeting at a certain time and place", such a setting can provide customers with a better user experience and enable the main body 1 to have a longer standby time.

[0037] In addition, the main body 1 may also be provided with a color screen such as LED, OLED, LCD, etc., and the visual area 211 may also display information displayed on the color screen.

[0038] The electronic device of the above structure includes a main body 1 and a protective cover 2 connected to the main body 1, and the main body 1 is provided with an ink screen, and the protective cover 2 is used to cover the first cover 21 of the ink screen to set a visible area 211, and the visible area 211 is used to reveal the information displayed on the ink screen, so that when the user needs to check the time or check the prompt message, the content of the ink screen in this area can be revealed through the visible area 211. With this arrangement, the information displayed in this area of ​​the ink screen can be observed through the visible area 211 without opening the protective cover 2, thereby improving the convenience of viewing the ink screen information. Meeting reminders and other matters can be known without opening the protective cover 2, so as to provide a better user experience of the electronic device.

[0039] In some embodiments, the ink screen has an independent display area, and the independent display area is located at the corner of the ink screen, and the visible area 211 is located at the corner of the first set 21, and the visible area 211 is used to display the information displayed in the independent display area. It should be noted that the independent display area is a partial area of ​​the ink screen, which independently displays commonly used information, such as: time information, power information, message reminder pop-up windows, alarm information, voice assistant, large model information, weather information, etc. And the visible area 211 is used to display the information displayed in the independent display area, which can ensure the integrity of the displayed ink screen information. Among them, the independent display area is located at the corner of the ink screen, and the visible area 211 is set at the corner of the first set 21, which can enhance the aesthetics of the visible area 211 set on the first set 21.

[0040] In addition, the independent display area can also be located at other positions of the ink screen, such as the end or middle of the ink screen; correspondingly, the visible area 211 can also be located at other positions of the ink screen, such as the end or middle of the first set 21. It needs to be ensured that the visible area 211 is set corresponding to the independent display area, that is, the visible area 211 can display the content displayed by the independent display area.

[0041] In some embodiments, both the independent display area and the visible area 211 are in the shape of bars. In this way, the independent display area can display time information, power information, message reminder pop-up windows, alarm information, voice assistant, large model information, etc. in a concise manner. Here, the independent display area and the visible area 211 are ensured to have the same shape, so that the visible area 211 accurately displays the content displayed in the independent display area, thereby improving the accuracy of the display result. The independent display area in the shape of a bar can also scroll and cyclically display the above information.

[0042] In addition, the independent display area and the visible area 211 may also be in other shapes, such as square, circle, triangle, etc., and it is necessary to ensure that the size of the visible area 211 is greater than or equal to the size of the independent display area.

[0043] In some embodiments, the length direction of the strip is parallel to the long side of the body 1. It should be noted that the length direction of the strip is parallel to the direction where the long side of the body 1 is located. Figure 3 The direction indicated by the double-headed arrow A in FIG. Such a setting can facilitate the setting of the independent display area and the visual area 211, so that the independent display area can display more information.

[0044] In addition, the length direction of the strip can also be inclined or perpendicular to the long side of the body 1 .

[0045] In some embodiments, the independent display area includes a power-on working state and a power-off working state, and the independent display area displays different information in the power-on working state and the power-off working state. For example, in the power-on working state, the independent display area can display changing information, such as temperature information, power information, voice assistant and other information that changes over time; in the power-off working state, the independent display area is used to display meeting reminders, time reminders and other messages.

[0046] In addition, the information displayed by the independent display area in the power-on working state and the power-off working state may also be the same.

[0047] In some embodiments, the visual area 211 is a visual panel connected to the first set 21. Exemplarily, the visual panel is a polycarbonate panel or an acrylic panel, so that the display information of the ink screen can be displayed through the visual panel, and the visual panel can also protect the ink screen from scratches or wear.

[0048] Furthermore, the visual board includes a frosted layer facing away from the ink screen. This arrangement can prevent the visual board from being scratched during use, thereby protecting the visual board.

[0049] In addition, the visible area 211 can also be set in other ways. For example, the visible area 211 is a hole opened on the first set 21 corresponding to the independent display area. In this way, the ink screen can be exposed. Such a setting can improve the clarity of the information displayed on the ink screen, making it easier for users to observe the information displayed on the ink screen through the visible area 211.

[0050] In some embodiments, the visible area 211 is an operable area that can change the information displayed on the ink screen. When the visible area 211 is a visual board set on the first set 21, the display information of the ink screen is changed by acting on the visible area 211 with a finger or an electronic pen. Exemplarily, the ink screen can be set with a resistive touch screen or a capacitive touch screen to operate the ink screen by acting on the visual board. With such a setting, it is possible to conveniently realize the interaction between the visible area 211 and the main body 1, realize the linkage with the main body 1, and realize the operation of the main body 1 through the visible area 211.

[0051] It should be noted that the resistive touch screen is composed of two layers of conductive glass or conductive film. When the touch screen is pressed, the upper and lower conductive layers come into contact to form a resistor. By measuring the coordinates of the touch point, the user's operating position is determined, thereby achieving a sliding effect. The capacitive touch screen is composed of a layer of glass surface coated with a layer of conductive film. When a finger touches the screen, the human body becomes the capacitive load of the sensor, changing the voltage signal distribution, thereby determining the touch position. Since the human body is charged, when the finger skin touches the screen, a coupling capacitor is formed between the screen and the human body, so that the two electric fields are coupled through the capacitor, thereby connecting a high-frequency signal channel. This high-frequency current enables the control device to sense the position of the finger on the screen and respond quickly to achieve a sliding operation.

[0052] In some embodiments, the independent display area is a window that can switch to display time information, and / or power information, and / or pop-up information. This configuration can improve the integrity of the information displayed in the independent display area, enable the independent display area to display more information, and improve the convenience of users observing the content displayed in the independent display area through the visual area 211.

[0053] In some embodiments, the protective cover 2 includes a leather layer, a cloth layer, or a polyurethane layer disposed on the surface of the protective cover 2. In this way, when a user uses the electronic device including the protective cover 2, the user's grip feeling can be improved, and the comfort during use can be improved.

[0054] In addition, the protective cover 2 also includes a polycarbonate board, a polymethyl methacrylate board, a glass fiber board, or a lightweight board, etc., which is arranged near the body 1 of the protective cover 2. In this way, the inner lining of the protective cover 2 can better protect the body 1 and enhance the protective effect of the protective cover 2 on the body 1.

[0055] In some embodiments, the protective cover 2 further includes a second cover and a connecting side cover 22, wherein the second cover is used to cover the back of the main body 1 shown; one side of the connecting side cover 22 is connected to the first cover 21, and the other side is connected to the second cover. Specifically, a first cover 21, a connecting side cover 22, and a second cover are sequentially connected to protect multiple surfaces of the main body 1 to prevent the main body 1 from being bumped or worn. Among them, the connecting side cover 22 not only serves to connect the first cover 21 and the second cover, but also makes the connecting side cover 22 a flexible cover, which can facilitate the user to open the protective cover 2 when the user opens the first cover 21 to use the ink screen.

[0056] In addition, a microphone hole, a camera hole, a charging hole, etc. can also be opened on the first set 21 and / or the second set.
