Description
Technical Field
[0001] The embodiments of the present utility model relate to the field of electronic technologies, and particularly to a box body and an electronic device. Background Art
[0002] A light guide member is a columnar structure made of a light-transparent material (such as glass or plastic). It has good optical properties and can transmit light from one position to another to control the propagation direction and path of light. To meet the requirement that no extra parts are visible outside the box body, the light guide member is usually installed inside the box body by means of screw fastening. Moreover, the light guide member usually penetrates the box body so that the light guide member emits light outside the box body. The light guide member is generally designed such that the light guide member installation surface and the screw fastening surface are on the same side of the box body. When the screw is tightened, the screw directly presses the light guide member, and the light guide member compresses the waterproof rubber ring to achieve the waterproof installation of the light guide member.
[0003] During the implementation of the embodiments of the present utility model, the inventor found that: when the light guide member installation surface and the screw fastening surface are not on the same side of the box body, the fastening force of the screw cannot be vertically transmitted to the light guide member installation surface. That is to say, the screw cannot directly press the light guide member, thereby resulting in insufficient pressure for the light guide member to compress the waterproof rubber ring, and thus causing insufficient waterproof performance of the light guide member.

[0027] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used in this specification have the same meaning as commonly understood by those skilled in the technical field to which the present utility model belongs. The terms used in this specification in the description of the present utility model are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not used to limit the present utility model. The term "and / or" used in this specification includes any and all combinations of one or more of the related listed items.
[0028] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 , the present utility model provides an embodiment of a box body. A box body includes a box shell 1, a light guide part 2, a sealing part 4 and a pressing block 5; the box shell 1 includes a connected side plate 11 and a bottom plate 12. The side plate 11 is provided with a mounting hole 111, and the mounting hole 111 penetrates through the side plate 11. A limiting part 121 extends on the inner surface of the bottom plate 12; the light guide part 2 includes a light-emitting part 21 and an abutting part 22. One end of the light-emitting part 21 is fixed to the abutting part 22, and the other end of the light-emitting part 21 is inserted into the mounting hole 111. An installation space is formed at an interval between the limiting part 121 and the abutting part 22; the sealing part 4 is sleeved on the light-emitting part 21, and the sealing part 4 abuts against the inner surface of the side plate 11; the pressing block 5 is inserted into the installation space. One end of the pressing block 5 abuts against the abutting part 22, and the other end of the pressing block 5 abuts against the limiting part 121, so that the abutting part 22 compresses the sealing part 4.
[0029] For the above light guide member 2, in some embodiments, the light-emitting portion 21 and the abutting portion 22 are vertically connected. The light-emitting portion 21 is parallel to the bottom plate 12, and the abutting portion 22 is parallel to the side plate 11. The shape of the light-emitting portion 21 is the same as that of the mounting hole 111, so that the side wall of the light-emitting portion 21 is in close contact with the side wall of the mounting hole 111, which can increase the contact area between the side wall of the light-emitting portion 21 and the side wall of the mounting hole 111, contribute to improving the stability of the light-emitting portion 21, and further contribute to improving the stability of the light guide member 2.
[0030] For the above light guide member 2, in order to further increase the pressure of the pressing block 5 on the light guide member 2 to increase the compression amount of the light guide member 2 compressing the sealing member 4, please refer to Figures 2 to 4 , an inclined surface 1211 is provided on the surface of the limiting portion 121 facing the abutting portion 22. Along the direction from the limiting portion 121 to the bottom plate 12, the distance between the inclined surface 1211 and the abutting portion 22 gradually decreases. The inclined surface 1211 is used to force the pressing block 5 to move towards the abutting portion 22 when the pressing block 5 is inserted into the installation space in a direction perpendicular to the limiting portion 121 towards the abutting portion 22, so as to increase the compression amount of the abutting portion 22 compressing the sealing member 4. In the above manner, when the pressing block 5 is inserted into the installation space in a direction perpendicular to the limiting portion 121 towards the abutting portion 22, the inclined surface 1211 forces the pressing block 5 to gradually move towards the abutting portion 22, and then the compression amount of the abutting portion 22 compressing the sealing member 4 gradually increases, so that the sealing member 4 is uniformly pressed, and damage or deformation caused by excessive local pressure on the sealing member 4 is avoided.
[0031] For the above light guide member 2, in order to keep the pressing block 5 stable when the pressure of the pressing block 5 on the light guide member 2 reaches the maximum value and the compression amount of the light guide member 2 compressing the sealing member 4 reaches the maximum value, please refer to Figures 2 to 4 , a flat surface 1212 is provided on the surface of the limiting portion 121 facing the abutting portion 22. The flat surface 1212 is closer to the bottom plate 12 than the inclined surface 1211, and the flat surface 1212 is parallel to the abutting portion 22. When the pressing block 5 is inserted into the installation space and abuts against the flat surface 1212, the compression amount of the abutting portion 22 compressing the sealing member 4 reaches the maximum value, which helps to further improve the waterproof performance of the light guide member 2. In the above manner, when the compression amount reaches the maximum value, the pressing block 5 abuts against the flat surface 1212 in parallel, and the pressing block 5 only receives the pressure perpendicular to the flat surface 1212, which can avoid the pressing block 5 receiving the pressure not perpendicular to the flat surface 1212, so as to avoid the movement of the pressing block 5 and keep the pressing block 5 stable.
[0032] For the above pressing block 5, when the pressing block 5 is subjected to the pressure from the limiting portion 121, in order to make the pressing block 5 uniformly pressed to improve the stability of the pressing block 5 and avoid the pressing block 5 from moving easily when the pressing block 5 is unevenly pressed, please refer to Figures 2 to 4, the number of the limiting portions 121 is two, the two limiting portions 121 are arranged at intervals, and both of the two limiting portions 121 are abutted against the other end of the pressing block 5.
