[0071] Exemplary embodiments will be described in detail herein, and examples thereof are shown in the accompanying drawings. When the following description refers to the accompanying drawings, unless otherwise indicated, the same numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with the present disclosure. On the contrary, they are merely examples of devices and methods consistent with some aspects of the present disclosure as detailed in the appended claims.

[0072] Currently, in wearable devices such as watches and bracelets, the disassembly process of the decorative components on the housing is usually time-consuming and laborious. Moreover, the detachable decorative components often cannot achieve the rotation function, making it difficult to meet the user's need for the rotation feel of the decorative components, and it is also difficult to conveniently disassemble, replace, etc. the decorative components, resulting in a relatively poor user experience.

[0073] To solve the above technical problems, the present disclosure provides a housing, a decorative component, and an electronic device. The housing of the present disclosure is provided with a disassembly and assembly component having a first elastic portion, and a decorative component capable of cooperating with the disassembly and assembly component. The decorative component and the disassembly and assembly component cooperate with each other to achieve quick and convenient disassembly and assembly of the decorative component and the disassembly and assembly component, improving the installation efficiency. In the first state, the decorative component is snap-fitted and installed on the middle frame component and can rotate relative to the middle frame component, ensuring that it will not fall off during normal use and improving the user's tactile feeling; in the second state, the decorative component can be disassembled from the middle frame component, facilitating the user to replace the decorative component according to their own preferences, meeting the user's personalized needs, and improving the user's experience.

[0074] According to an exemplary embodiment, as Figures 1 - 20 shown, the embodiment of the present disclosure provides a housing, which can be applied to wearable electronic devices such as watches and bracelets. In order to facilitate the realization of the rotation function of the decorative component on the housing, the wearable electronic device can be set as a circular dial. The housing includes a middle frame component 10, a disassembly and assembly component 20, and a decorative component 30. Among them, the disassembly and assembly component 20 is installed on the middle frame component 10. The cross-section of the middle frame component 10 can be, for example, a circular ring. The material of the middle frame component 10 can be metal, alloy, resin, glass, ceramic, plastic, etc., to improve the overall aesthetics of the electronic device. The materials of the middle frame component 10 and the decorative component 30 can be the same or different. For example, the material of the middle frame component 10 can be plastic to reduce the overall weight of the electronic device, and the material of the decorative component 30 can be metal to improve the overall texture of the electronic device. For another example, the materials of both the middle frame component 10 and the decorative component 30 can be resin, which can have a more abundant sense of shape while ensuring a relatively light weight.

[0075] The disassembly and assembly component 20 includes a first body 21, a first clamping portion 211 and a first elastic portion 212, and the first clamping portion 211 and the first elastic portion 212 are arranged on the first body 21. The decoration component 30 includes a second clamping portion 301, and the second clamping portion 301 is detachably engaged with the first clamping portion 211, achieving quick disassembly and assembly while ensuring the installation reliability. When the first elastic portion 212 is in the first state, the second clamping portion 301 is clamped and connected to the first clamping portion 211 to restrict the movement of the decoration component 30 and the disassembly and assembly component 20 in the radial direction of the middle frame component 10, so that the decoration component 30 is installed on the middle frame component 10 through the disassembly and assembly component 20, and the decoration component 30 can rotate relative to the disassembly and assembly component 20 in the circumferential direction of the middle frame component 10. While realizing the reliable installation of the decoration component 30 on the middle frame component 10, its rotation function can also be realized, improving the user experience. When the first elastic portion 212 is in the second state, the second clamping portion 301 is separated from the first clamping portion 211, and at this time, the decoration component 30 can be disassembled.

[0076] Through the above structural arrangement, the disassembly and assembly component 20 of the present disclosure embodiment can ensure that the decoration component 30 realizes the rotation function in the installed state, and the decoration component 30 is detachably connected to the middle frame component 10. At the same time, through the clamping limit between the second clamping portion 301 and the first clamping portion 211, it is ensured that the decoration component 30 will not fall off easily in the installed state, improving the user's touch feeling and use experience.

[0077] Wherein, the first elastic portion 212 may include structural devices such as springs and elastic sheets that can generate elastic deformation and reset. The number of the first elastic portions 212 may be one or more, and the present disclosure embodiment does not impose too many restrictions on the specific form of the first elastic portion 212.

[0078] In some embodiments, the first state and the second state of the first elastic part 212 can be set in a variety of different ways. In one example, the first state of the first elastic part 212 is the initial state, that is, the state without deformation, and the second state is the compressed state or the stretched state. Since deformation occurs in the second state, it can drive the first engaging part 211 and the second engaging part 301 that are engaged with each other in the first state to separate, so that the disassembly and assembly component 20 and the decoration component 30 that originally cooperate with each other are separated, enabling the decoration component 30 to be disassembled. In another example, the first state of the first elastic part 212 is the stretched state, the second state is the initial state or the compressed state, and the second state produces a deformation with an opposite trend compared to the first state, causing the disassembly and assembly component 20 and the decoration component 30 that originally cooperate with each other to separate. In yet another example, the first state of the first elastic part 212 is the compressed state, the second state is the initial state or the stretched state, and since the second state produces a deformation with an opposite trend compared to the first state, the disassembly and assembly component 20 and the decoration component 30 are separated, realizing the disassembly of the decoration component 30. For another example, the first state of the first elastic part 212 can be a slightly compressed state, so as to apply an outward acting force along the radial direction to the disassembly and assembly component 20, making the connection between the second engaging part 301 and the first engaging part 211 more reliable. The second state of the first elastic part 212 can be a heavily compressed state. The first elastic part 212 changes from the first state to the second state, which can be achieved by the user applying a squeezing force along the radial direction to the disassembly and assembly component 20.

[0079] The embodiments of the present disclosure do not impose too many restrictions on the specific setting methods of the first state and the second state of the first elastic part 212, as long as the first engaging part 211 and the second engaging part 301 can be engaged and connected in the first state of the first elastic part 212 and separated in the second state.

[0080] In some embodiments, one of the first engaging part 211 and the second engaging part 301 is set as an annular groove extending along the circumferential direction of the middle frame assembly 10, and the other is set as a clamping block. In one example, the first engaging part 211 is set as an annular groove extending along the circumferential direction of the middle frame assembly 10, and the second engaging part 301 is set as a clamping block that cooperates with the annular groove. In another example, the second engaging part 301 is set as an annular groove extending along the circumferential direction of the middle frame assembly 10, and the first engaging part 211 is set as a clamping block that cooperates with the annular groove. Among them, the number of clamping blocks is at least one. For the convenience of the user applying force to the disassembly and assembly component 20 when disassembling the decoration component 30, the number of clamping blocks can be set to two. The two clamping blocks are arranged oppositely, and symmetrically arranging the two clamping blocks can improve the installation reliability and stability between the disassembly and assembly component 20 and the decoration component 30.

[0081] In one example, along the radial direction of the middle frame assembly 10 , the width of the block is less than or equal to the width of the annular groove to ensure that the two can cooperate with each other, so that the decoration assembly 30 can be installed on the middle frame assembly 10 through the disassembly assembly 20 .

[0082] In one example, the annular groove is provided with an alignment notch 311, and an alignment mark (not shown in the figure) is provided on the outer surface of the decorative component 30, and the alignment mark corresponds to the position of the alignment notch 311. The middle frame component 10 is provided with a turn button 14, and when the alignment mark and the turn button are aligned and installed, the turn button 14 is accommodated in the alignment notch 311. When the decorative component 30 rotates relative to the middle frame component 10, the turn button 14 moves in the annular groove, which can further improve the installation reliability during the relative rotation of the two and prevent the decorative component 30 from coming out. In addition, by providing the turn button 14, the alignment notch 311 and the alignment mark, it is convenient to position the decorative component 30 when installing it. When the alignment notch 311 and the alignment mark are facing each other, the decorative component 30 can be vertically buckled to be installed in the middle frame component 10, so as to conveniently align the decorative component 30 with the middle frame component 10 for installation, and when the turn button 14, the alignment notch 311 and the alignment mark are facing each other, the turn button 14 will not have a limiting effect on the decorative component 30. Among them, the turn buckle 14 and the disassembly assembly 20 are staggered, and the turn buckle 14 and the disassembly assembly 20 are staggered in the circumferential direction of the middle frame assembly 10, which can not only better limit and fix the decorative assembly 30, but also avoid mutual interference between the two.

[0083] Among them, the number of the buckles 14 can be two, and the two buckles 14 are arranged opposite to each other, that is, the connecting line of the two buckles 14 passes through the center of the middle frame assembly 10. Of course, it can be understood that the number of the buckles 14 can also be increased or decreased according to actual needs, and the embodiment of the present disclosure does not impose too many restrictions on this.

[0084] In some embodiments, the decorative component 30 includes a decorative inner ring 31 and a decorative outer ring 32. The decorative inner ring 31 and the decorative outer ring 32 are fixedly connected. In one example, the decorative inner ring 31 can be fixedly connected to the decorative outer ring 32 by dispensing. It can be understood that the decorative inner ring 31 and the decorative outer ring 32 can also be connected by other methods such as snap-on and plug-in. The decorative outer ring 32 covers the decorative inner ring 31, and the decorative inner ring 31 is provided with an annular groove 3011. The disassembly assembly 20 includes at least one first body 21, and a part of the first body 21 protrudes from the first body 21 to form a clamping block 2111. The clamping block 2111 of the first body 21 cooperates with the annular groove 3011 of the decorative inner ring 31 to install and limit the decorative component 30 through the disassembly assembly 20.

[0085] In one example, the decorative component 30 further includes a buffer member 33. The buffer member 33 is fixedly connected to the decorative outer ring 32 and the decorative inner ring 31 respectively, and the buffer member 33 is disposed inside the decorative component 30. The buffer member 33 can be fixed to the decorative outer ring 32 and the decorative inner ring 31 by double-sided tape. Of course, it can be understood that the buffer member 33 can also be connected to the decorative outer ring 32 and the decorative inner ring 31 by other means such as snap connection and interference fit. Generally, for aesthetics and texture, the materials of the decorative outer ring 32 and the decorative inner ring 31 are generally made of metal materials or relatively hard materials. The buffer member 33 is provided to prevent the decorative outer ring 32 and the decorative inner ring 31 from contacting the surface of the display screen, causing scratches or abrasions on the surface of the display screen, ensuring the aesthetics of the display screen, and improving the service life and aesthetics of the electronic device. The material of the buffer member 33 can be, for example, materials with certain elasticity such as PET (polyethyleneglycol terephthalate), PP (polypropylene), and PE (polyethylene). A lubricating coating can also be sprayed on the surface of the buffer member 33 or lubricating oil can be dip-coated to further reduce the friction between the two. The specific material of the buffer member 33 is not overly limited in the embodiments of the present disclosure, and those skilled in the art can select according to actual needs.

[0086] In some embodiments, a first contact portion 312 is provided on the side of the decorative inner ring 31 facing the middle frame component 10. The middle frame component includes a middle frame body 11 and a second contact portion 1101 provided on the middle frame body 11. Both the first contact portion 312 and the second contact portion 1101 are arranged along the circumferential direction of the middle frame component 10. During the rotation of the decorative component 30 relative to the middle frame component 10, the first contact portion 312 contacts the second contact portion 1101, thereby improving the feedback effect and rotation feel of the user's rotation operation and enhancing the user experience.

[0087] In some embodiments, the first contact portion 312 includes contact grooves or contact teeth. A plurality of contact grooves or a plurality of contact teeth are evenly distributed along the circumferential direction of the decorative inner ring 31 to reduce the shaking when the decorative component 30 rotates. Among them, the contact teeth can include at least one of V-shaped teeth and fish-scale inclined teeth.

[0088] In one example, as Figure 17 、 18 shown, the contact teeth include V-shaped teeth 3121. The decorative component 30 can rotate bidirectionally, that is, the decorative component 30 can rotate clockwise relative to the middle frame component or counterclockwise relative to the middle frame component. In another example, as Figure 19 、 20As shown, the contact teeth include fish-scale helical teeth 3122, which are usually used for unidirectional rotation. That is, the decorative component 30 can rotate clockwise relative to the middle frame component, or the decorative component 30 can rotate counterclockwise relative to the middle frame component. In another example, the contact teeth can simultaneously include V-shaped teeth and fish-scale helical teeth to increase the friction during rotation, thereby improving the user's tactile experience.

[0089] In some embodiments, the second contact portion 1101 is provided to include at least one probe. The middle frame component 10 includes a probe mounting hole 1102, and the probe is mounted in the probe mounting hole 1102. When the number of probes is multiple, the multiple probes are evenly distributed along the circumferential direction of the middle frame component 10, so as to ensure that the rotation tactile experience of the decorative component 30 for a full circle is uniform and there is no wobbling. Among them, the probe can have an elastic portion so that the probe can move up and down. When the probe cooperates with the non-planar contact teeth, when cooperating with the contact teeth, since the probe will snap in and out of the groove of the contact teeth when the decorative component 30 rotates, a clicking sound will be emitted, thereby achieving rotation feedback.

[0090] In some embodiments, the probes can be arranged in a variety of different ways.

[0091] In one example, as Figure 10 shown, the probe includes a first support portion 1111 and a first arc-shaped probe head 1112 provided on the first support portion 1111. Among them, the first support portion 1111 includes a housing 1114 and a second elastic portion 1113. The housing has a hollow area, and the second elastic portion 1113 is arranged in the housing 1114. The second elastic portion 1113 is in contact with both the first arc-shaped probe head 1112 and the inner wall of the housing 1114, and the first arc-shaped probe head 1112 is arranged at the opening of the housing 1114. Due to the provision of the second elastic portion 1113, the second elastic portion 1113 has a pre-compression and presses against the first arc-shaped probe head 1112 at the opening. When the probe head contacts the protruding portion at the contact teeth, the contact teeth apply a squeezing force to the second elastic portion 1113, causing it to be further compressed. When the decorative component 30 rotates and the probe moves to the groove position of the contact teeth, due to the pre-compression of the second elastic portion 1113, under the action of the second elastic portion 1113, the first arc-shaped probe head 1112 pushes outwards and collides with the bottom of the groove. When continuing to rotate, the second elastic portion 1113 is further compressed, and the first arc-shaped probe head 1112 moves in the rotation direction and disengages from the groove. Therefore, when the probe cooperates with the contact teeth, since the probe will snap in and out of the groove of the contact teeth when the decorative component 30 rotates, a clicking sound will be emitted, thereby achieving rotation feedback. In other arrangements of the probe, the process of the probe moving up and down to achieve rotation feedback with the contact teeth is similar to the above process and will not be elaborated further below.

[0092] In another example, as Figure 11As shown in the figure, the probe includes a second support portion 1121 and a second arc-shaped probe head 1122 disposed on the second support portion 1121. The probe further includes a third elastic portion 1123. The third elastic portion 1123 is installed on the second support portion 1121. One end of the third elastic portion 1123 away from the second arc-shaped probe head 1122 abuts against the bottom surface of the probe mounting hole. Since there is no housing provided, the third elastic portion 1123 directly abuts against the bottom surface of the third elastic portion 1123 and the probe mounting hole. Therefore, more design space is saved, which is beneficial to achieving the compactness of the structural design.

[0093] In yet another example, as Figures 12 - 15 shown, the probe includes a support body 1131, and a guide post 1132 and a fourth elastic portion 1133 connected to the support body 1131. The support body 1131 is provided with an elastic portion mounting hole 1134. The fourth elastic portion 1133 is disposed in the elastic portion mounting hole 1134. One end of the fourth elastic portion 1133 abuts against the elastic portion mounting hole 1134, and the other end of the fourth elastic portion 1133 abuts against the bottom surface of the probe mounting hole.

[0094] One end of the support body 1131 away from the bottom surface of the probe mounting hole is provided with a guide surface. The guide surface includes a single inclined surface or a double inclined surface. The guide post 1132 is used to ensure the accuracy of the orientation and position of the guide surface. The guide surface is used to guide the probe. Among them, the guide surface can be a single inclined surface for realizing unidirectional rotation feedback. As Figure 12 、 13 shown, there is a first preset angle between the first inclined surface 1135 of the guide surface and the axis of the support body 1131. The range of the first preset angle can be greater than 30° and less than 90°. The guide surface can also be a double inclined surface for realizing bidirectional rotation feedback. As Figure 14 、 15 shown, the two inclined surfaces of the double inclined surface are respectively a second inclined surface 1136 and a third inclined surface 1137. The two inclined surfaces are oppositely arranged. There is a second preset angle between the second inclined surface 1136 and the third inclined surface 1137. The range of the second preset angle can be greater than 20° and less than 120°. Of course, it can be understood that the angular ranges of the first preset angle and the second preset angle can be adjusted and set by those skilled in the art according to actual needs. The embodiments of the present disclosure do not limit this too much.

[0095] In some embodiments, as Figure 16 shown, the second contact portion 1101 includes a shrapnel body 1141 and shrapnel 1142. Among them, a plurality of shrapnel 1142 are distributed along the circumferential direction of the shrapnel body 1141. The shrapnel 1142 is used to contact the first contact portion 312.

[0096] In one example, the shrapnel body 1141 is annular. The shrapnel 1142 includes a first shrapnel 1143 and a second shrapnel 1144. The first shrapnel 1143 is disposed on the inner ring of the shrapnel body 1141, and the second shrapnel 1144 is disposed on the outer ring of the shrapnel body 1141. The first shrapnel 1143 contacts the first contact portion 312 to achieve rotational feedback and improve the rotational feel. The second shrapnel 1144 contacts the middle frame body 11 to limit the shrapnel body 1141, preventing the shrapnel body 1141 from shaking when the decorative component 30 rotates, which may reduce the comfort and user experience during use.

[0097] In some embodiments, the setting manner of the first contact portion 312 corresponds to that of the second contact portion 1101. In one example, the first contact portion 312 includes a contact groove, and the second contact portion 1101 includes a probe. In another example, the first contact portion 312 includes a contact groove, and the second contact portion 1101 includes a shrapnel body and a shrapnel.

In yet another example, the first contact portion 312 includes contact teeth, and the second contact portion 1101 includes a shrapnel body and a shrapnel.

[0098] It should be noted that when the first contact portion 312 includes a contact groove, the second contact portion 1101 may include different forms of probes and shrapnels. The decorative component 30 can achieve the rotational function, but the rotational feel feedback is poor. When the first contact portion 312 includes contact teeth, the second contact portion 1101 can be correspondingly set to include a probe or a shrapnel. For example, when the contact teeth are V-shaped teeth, that is, when the decorative component 30 is used to achieve two-way rotational feedback, a probe including the first arc-shaped probe head 1112, a probe including the second arc-shaped probe head 1122, a probe including two opposite guiding surfaces, and the second contact portion 1101 including a shrapnel body and a shrapnel can be selected; when the contact teeth are fish-scale inclined teeth, that is, when the decorative component 30 is used to achieve one-way rotational feedback, a probe including the first arc-shaped probe head 1112, a probe including the second arc-shaped probe head 1122, a probe including one guiding surface, and the second contact portion 1101 including a shrapnel body and a shrapnel can be selected. Of course, it can be understood that the first contact portion 312 and the second contact portion 1101 can also be other shapes not exemplified in the embodiments of the present disclosure, as long as the two can cooperate with each other to achieve the required functions. The embodiments of the present disclosure do not impose too many restrictions on the specific setting forms of the first contact portion 312 and the second contact portion 1101.
