Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of electronic components, and particularly to an electronic device. Background Art

[0002] An electronic device generally includes structures such as a housing, a button, and a circuit board. By controlling the button, the on / off of the circuit board can be adjusted. The electronic device can be a gateway, a circuit breaker, etc.

[0003] Taking the electronic device as a gateway as an example, based on the on / off adjustment of the circuit board by the control button, pressing the button in different ways can make the circuit board in different working states.

[0004] Based on the structure of the existing gateway, during the assembly process of the housing, the button, and the circuit board, it is easy for the button to separate from the housing, thereby affecting the assembly efficiency of the gateway. Utility Model Content

[0005] This application provides an electronic device to reduce the possibility of the button separating from the housing during the assembly process of the electronic device and improve the assembly efficiency of the electronic device.

[0006] In a first aspect, this application provides an electronic device, which includes a housing, a circuit board, and a button. The housing is provided with a mounting hole, and the inner wall of the housing is provided with a mounting groove, and the mounting groove communicates with the mounting hole. The circuit board is fixedly installed on the housing, and the circuit board is connected with a switch. The button includes a button body and a support member. The first end of the button body passes through the mounting hole, the second end of the button body can abut against the switch, the support member is arranged on the periphery of the button body, and the end of the support member away from the button body cooperates with the mounting groove. Wherein, when the button body abuts against the switch under pressure, the support member deforms under the drive of the button body; after the pressure acting on the button body is removed, the support member restores deformation and drives the button body to reset.

[0007] The housing can provide a mounting carrier for the circuit board and the button. The housing is provided with a mounting hole, and the inner wall of the housing is provided with a mounting groove. The button includes a button body and a support member, and the circuit board is provided with a switch. The first end of the button body can pass through the mounting hole, and the second end of the mounting body can abut against the switch. One end of the support member is connected to the button body, and the other end of the support member can abut against the wall of the mounting groove. Since the mounting groove is arranged on the housing and the support member is a part of the button, therefore, the positional relationship between the button and the housing can be defined through the cooperation between the support member and the mounting groove, reducing the possibility of the button separating from the housing before the circuit board is assembled to the housing, thereby improving the assembly efficiency of the electronic device.

[0008] In addition, compared with providing a reset force for the button by setting an elastic member in the prior art, in the example of the present application, when the button body abuts against the switch under pressure, the support member deforms under the drive of the button body. After the pressure acting on the button body is removed, the support member can recover its deformation and drive the button body to reset. Therefore, the button can be reset by the support member, saving the use of the elastic member and making the structure of the electronic device simpler.

[0009] In some possible implementation manners, the installation groove includes a first sub-groove and a second sub-groove that are spaced apart. The support member includes a first support and a second support, and part of the first support extends into the first sub-groove, and part of the second support extends into the second sub-groove.

[0010] When the button is matched with the housing, since the first sub-groove and the second sub-groove are spaced apart, the positions where the first support is matched with the first sub-groove and the positions where the second support is matched with the second sub-groove are spaced apart. Based on this, the cooperation between the first support and the first sub-groove and the cooperation between the second support and the second sub-groove can limit the position of the button relative to the housing from different positions, ensuring the connection reliability between the button and the housing and reducing the possibility of the button separating from the housing.

[0011] In some possible implementation manners, a limiting groove is provided on the groove wall of the installation groove close to the circuit board, and the end of the support member away from the button body is matched with the limiting groove.

[0012] During the use of the electronic device, part of the support member can extend into the limiting groove and be matched with the limiting groove. Based on this, the groove wall of the limiting groove can limit the position of the support member relative to the groove wall of the installation groove, reducing the amplitude of displacement of the support member relative to the groove wall of the installation groove, and even avoiding the displacement of the support member relative to the groove wall of the installation groove. Since the limiting groove is provided on the groove wall of the installation groove, the installation groove is provided in the housing, and the support member is a part of the button, the cooperation between the support member and the limiting groove can further ensure the connection reliability between the button and the housing and reduce the possibility of the button separating from the housing.

[0013] In some possible implementation manners, an extending protrusion is provided on the inner wall of the housing, and the extending protrusion and the mating wall of the housing cooperate to form an installation groove, and the mating wall is provided with an installation hole.

[0014] The extending protrusion and the mating wall of the housing can cooperate to form an installation groove, and the installation groove can be matched with the support member. Since the installation groove is provided in the housing and the support member is a part of the button, the cooperation between the support member and the installation groove can limit the position of the button relative to the housing and reduce the possibility of the button separating from the housing.

[0015] In some possible implementations, the first support includes a first connection segment, a second connection segment, and a mating segment. The first connection segment is connected to the side wall of the button body. The second connection segment is connected to the end of the connection segment away from the button body. The mating segment is connected to the end of the second connection segment away from the first connection segment, and the end of the mating segment away from the second connection segment extends into the installation groove.

[0016] The first connection segment is connected to the side wall of the button body. During the process that the button body moves towards the switch under the action of pressure and abuts against the switch, the first connection segment moves in the direction towards the switch driven by the button body, or has a tendency to move in the direction towards the switch, and the first connection segment can deform in the direction towards the switch.

[0017] Since the second connection segment is connected to the first connection segment, the second connection segment moves in the direction towards the switch driven by the first connection segment, or has a tendency to move in the direction towards the switch, and the second connection segment deforms in the direction towards the switch.

[0018] Since the mating segment is connected to the second connection segment, the mating segment has a tendency to move in the direction towards the switch driven by the second connection segment and abuts against the groove wall of the installation groove. Based on Newton's third law, the groove wall of the installation groove can exert a reaction force on the mating segment away from the switch. After the pressure acting on the button is removed, the reaction force can make the mating segment have a tendency to move away from the switch, and the mating segment exerts a reaction force on the first connection segment away from the switch through the second connection segment, so that the deformed second connection segment and the first connection segment can restore their deformation. Since the button body is connected to the first connection segment, the restoration of the deformation of the first connection segment can drive the button body to reset, facilitating the operator's next operation.

[0019] In some possible implementations, the mating segment is in surface contact with the groove wall of the installation groove.

[0020] By setting the first connection segment to be in surface contact with the groove wall of the installation groove, the cooperation between the first connection segment and the installation groove can be made more reliable, and the amplitude of the sway of the first connection segment relative to the installation groove can be reduced. Since the first connection segment is a part of the support member, the support member is a part of the button, and the installation groove is provided in the housing, by setting the first connection segment to be in surface contact with the groove wall of the installation groove, the amplitude of the sway of the support member relative to the installation groove can be reduced, thereby ensuring the connection reliability between the button and the housing.

[0021] In some possible implementations, the electronic device further includes a cover case, and the cover case is detachably connected to the outer wall of the housing.

[0022] The housing can provide an installation carrier for the cover. Since the cover is detachably connected to the housing, during the use of the electronic device, if one of the cover and the housing is damaged, the damaged one can be replaced, thereby reducing the usage cost of the electronic device.

[0023] In some possible implementation manners, the cover includes a cover body, and a first connection structure and a second connection structure are spaced apart on the cover body. A third connection structure and a fourth connection structure are spaced apart on the outer wall of the housing. The third connection structure cooperates with the first connection structure, and the fourth connection structure cooperates with the second connection structure.

[0024] Since both the first connection structure and the second connection structure are provided on the cover body, the cover body is a part of the cover, and both the third connection structure and the fourth connection structure are provided on the housing, therefore, through the cooperation of the first connection structure and the third connection structure, and the cooperation of the second connection structure and the fourth connection structure, the connection between the cover and the housing can be realized, ensuring the connection reliability between the cover and the housing.

[0025] In some possible implementation manners, the first connection structure includes at least one hook structure, the third connection structure includes at least one slot structure, and the slot structure cooperates with the hook structure. The second connection structure includes at least one protrusion structure, the fourth connection structure includes at least one groove structure, and the groove structure cooperates with the protrusion structure.

[0026] By setting that the first connection structure includes at least one hook structure and the third connection structure includes at least one slot structure, the connection reliability between the cover and the housing can be ensured through the cooperation of the hook structure and the slot structure, and the amplitude of the cover shaking relative to the housing can be reduced.

[0027] On this basis, by setting that the second connection structure includes at least one protrusion structure and the fourth connection structure includes at least one groove structure, the connection reliability between the cover and the housing can be further ensured through the cooperation of the protrusion structure and the groove structure, and the assembly difficulty between the cover and the housing can be reduced.

[0028] In some possible implementation manners, a first guiding surface is provided at one end of the hook structure facing away from the cover body, and the inclination direction of the first guiding surface is adapted to the assembly direction of the hook structure. And / or, a second guiding surface is provided at one end of the protrusion structure facing away from the cover body, and the inclination direction of the second guiding surface is adapted to the assembly direction of the protrusion structure.

[0029] By providing the first guiding surface, during the cooperation process of the hook structure and the slot structure, the end with the smallest dimension of the hook structure can extend into the slot, and then be clamped with the slot wall. The efficiency of the hook structure entering the slot structure can be improved, and thus the cooperation efficiency between the cover and the housing can be improved.

[0030] By setting the second guiding surface, during the cooperation process of the convex structure and the groove structure, the end with the smallest size of the convex structure can extend into the groove and then be clamped with the groove wall. This can improve the efficiency of the convex structure entering the groove structure, and further improve the cooperation efficiency between the cover and the housing. Description of the Drawings

Detailed Description of the Embodiments

[0041] For the purposes of making the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the examples of this application clearer, the following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the examples of this application in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the examples of this application. Obviously, the described examples are a part of the examples of this application, rather than all of the examples. All other examples obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the examples in this application without creative efforts fall within the scope of protection of this application.

[0042] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by those of ordinary skill in the technical field to which this application belongs; the terms used in the description of this application in the specification are only for the purpose of describing specific examples and are not intended to limit this application; the terms "including" and "having" and any variations thereof in the specification, claims, and drawings of this application are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion.

[0043] Referring to "example" herein means that a specific feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with the example can be included in at least one example of this application. The phrase "example" appearing in various positions in the specification does not necessarily refer to the same example, nor is it an independent or alternative example mutually exclusive with other examples. It is explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the examples described herein can be combined with other examples.

[0044] The term "and / or" herein is merely a description of the relationship between associated objects, indicating that there can be three relationships. For example, A and / or B can represent: the existence of A, the simultaneous existence of A and B, and the existence of B. Additionally, the character " / " herein generally represents an "or" relationship between the associated objects before and after.

[0045] The orientation terms appearing in the following description are all the directions shown in the figures and do not limit the specific structure of the electronic device of this application.

[0046] Furthermore, the terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification, claims, or the above-mentioned drawings of this application are used to distinguish different objects and are not used to describe a specific order, and may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of such features.

[0047] In the description of this application, unless otherwise specified, "plural" means two or more (including two). Similarly, "multiple groups" means two or more groups (including two groups).

[0048] In the description of the present application, it should be noted that unless otherwise clearly specified and defined, the terms "installation", "connection", and "coupling" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, the "connection" or "coupling" of mechanical structures can refer to a physical connection. For example, a physical connection can be a fixed connection, such as a fixed connection through a spacer, such as a fixed connection through screws, bolts, or other spacers; a physical connection can also be a detachable connection, such as a snap connection or a snap-fit connection; a physical connection can also be an integral connection, such as a connection formed by welding, bonding, or integral molding. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0049] An electronic device generally includes structures such as a housing, buttons, and a circuit board. By controlling the buttons, the on / off state of the circuit board can be adjusted, and thus the usage state of the electronic device can be adjusted. The electronic device can be a gateway, a circuit breaker, etc.

[0050] Taking the electronic device being a gateway as an example, pressing the button in different ways can make the circuit board be in different working states.

[0051] Based on the structure of existing gateways, one end of the button cooperates with the housing, and the other end of the button cooperates with the switch of the circuit board. During the assembly process of the gateway, before the circuit board is assembled, the button is prone to shift relative to the housing and the button is separated from the housing, thus affecting the assembly efficiency of the gateway.

[0052] In addition, based on the structure of existing electronic devices, the button usually cooperates with an elastic member so that after the pressure applied to the button is removed, the elastic member can provide a reset force for the button, making the structure of the electronic device relatively complex.

[0053] Based on the above, the present application provides an example of an electronic device.

[0054] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the solution of the present application, the electronic device provided by the example of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0056] Please refer toFigures 1 to 5 , the electronic device 100 may include a housing 110, a circuit board 140, and a button 130. The housing 110 is provided with a mounting hole 113, and an inner wall of the housing 110 is provided with a mounting groove 111, and the mounting groove 111 communicates with the mounting hole 113. The circuit board 140 is fixedly mounted on the housing 110, and the circuit board 140 is connected to a switch 141. The button 130 includes a button body 131 and a support member 132. A first end of the button body 131 passes through the mounting hole 113, a second end of the button body 131 can abut against the switch 141, and the support member 132 is disposed on a circumferential side of the button body 131, and an end of the support member 132 away from the button body 131 cooperates with the mounting groove 111. Wherein, when the button body 131 abuts against the switch 141 under pressure, the support member 132 deforms under the drive of the button body 131; after the pressure acting on the button body 131 is removed, the support member 132 restores deformation and drives the button body 131 to reset.

[0057] The electronic device 100 may be a gateway, a circuit breaker, etc. In this application example, only the case where the electronic device 100 is a gateway is described.

[0058] The housing 110 may be made of an insulating material, such as bakelite, nylon, polyvinyl chloride, polycarbonate (also known as PC plastic), etc. The housing 110 made of an insulating material can reduce the possibility of current in the housing 110 being led out to the outside of the housing 110, and ensure the use safety of the electronic device 100.

[0059] The housing 110 may be provided with a mounting cavity, and the circuit board 140 may be fixedly mounted in the mounting cavity. Exemplarily, a clamping groove may be provided on a cavity wall of the mounting cavity, and the circuit board 140 may be clamped in the clamping groove. The circuit board 140 may also be fixedly connected in the mounting cavity by connection methods such as bonding and melting.

[0060] One or more circuit boards 140 may be provided, and the specific setting of the circuit board 140 may be the same as the setting method of the circuit board 140 in the prior art.

[0061] The circuit board 140 is provided with a switch 141. The switch 141 can be switched between a closed state and a separated state. When the switch 141 is in the closed state, the circuit may be in an energized state. When the switch 141 is in the separated state, the circuit may be in an open state.

[0062] The switch 141 may be a key switch, a button switch or other forms of switches, as long as it is ensured that the button 130 can trigger the switch 141 so that the switch 141 can send an operation signal to the circuit board 140.

[0063] Exemplarily, on the premise that the circuit board 140 is in an open circuit state, the button 130 can apply a force to the switch 141, causing the switch 141 to switch to a closed state, and further causing the circuit board 140 to be in a powered-on state.

[0064] When the circuit board 140 is in a powered-on state, the operator can continuously press the button 130 several times, and the button 130 can drive the switch 141 to act. The number of times the button 130 is continuously pressed is different, that is, the number of actions of the switch 141 is different. The switch 141 can send different operation signals to the circuit board 140, so that the circuit board 140 can be in the corresponding working state. The usage method of the switch 141 is the same as that of the switch 141 in the prior art, and this application example will not be further described here.

[0065] The button 130 can include a button body 131, and the button body 131 can be generally cylindrical, prismatic or other structures. A support member 132 can be connected to the circumferential side of the button body 131.

[0066] There can be one, two, three or even more support members 132. This application example does not limit the specific setting of the support member 132, as long as it is ensured that when the button body 131 abuts against the switch 141 under the action of pressure, the movement of the button body 131 can drive the support member 132 to deform, and after the pressure is removed, the support member 132 can recover its deformation and drive the button body 131 to reset.

[0067] The button 130 can be made of a material with a certain elastic deformation ability. For example, plastic materials, silicone materials, aluminum and aluminum alloys, etc. The manufacturing materials of the button body 131 and the support member 132 can be the same or different, as long as it is ensured that the elastic performance of the support member 132 is good, so that the support member 132 can deform under the drive of the button body 131 and can recover its deformation after the pressure is removed.

[0068] The housing 110 can be provided with an installation hole 113. The first end of the button body 131 can pass through the installation hole 113, and the second end of the button body 131 can abut against the switch 141.

[0069] When the switch 141 is in the separated state, the first end of the button body 131 can be higher than the outer wall of the housing 110 provided with the mounting hole 113. The first end of the button body 131 can also be flush with the outer wall of the housing 110 provided with the mounting hole 113. Based on this, the possibility of the button 130 being accidentally touched can be reduced. The second end of the button 130 can be in contact with the switch 141, and there can also be a gap between the second end of the button 130 and the switch 141. The specific implementation manner of the button 130 in this application example is not limited. As long as the pressure acts on the button body 131, the button body 131 can abut against the switch 141 so that the switch 141 can send an operation signal to the circuit board 140.

[0070] The inner wall of the housing 110 can be provided with a mounting groove 111. One end of the support member 132 can be connected to the button body 131, and the other end of the support member 132 can abut against the mounting groove 111.

[0071] The mounting groove 111 can include a plurality of sub-grooves. The number of sub-grooves can be equal to the number of support members 132, and the sub-grooves correspond to the support members 132 one by one.

[0072] When there are two sub-grooves, the two sub-grooves can be arranged oppositely, and the button 130 can be directly matched with the sub-grooves.

[0073] When there are three or more sub-grooves, the plurality of sub-grooves can be arranged at intervals, and the support member 132 can abut against the groove wall of the corresponding sub-groove after rotating through the interval between adjacent sub-grooves.

[0074] During the assembly process of the electronic device 100, an operator can apply a force to the support member 132 so that the button 130 can enter between the groove wall of the mounting groove 111 and the inner wall of the housing 110 provided with the mounting hole 113. Then, the button 130 is adjusted so that the first end of the button body 131 passes through the mounting hole 113, and the support member 132 can abut against the groove wall of the mounting groove 111.

[0075] Based on the above, the housing 110 can provide an installation carrier for the circuit board 140 and the button 130. The housing 110 is provided with an installation hole 113, and the inner wall of the housing 110 is provided with an installation groove 111. The button 130 includes a button body 131 and a support member 132, and the circuit board 140 is provided with a switch 141. The first end of the button body 131 can pass through the installation hole 113, and the second end of the installation body can abut against the switch 141. One end of the support member 132 is connected to the button body 131, and the other end of the support member 132 can abut against the wall of the installation groove 111. Since the installation groove 111 is provided in the housing 110 and the support member 132 is a part of the button 130, therefore, the positional relationship between the button 130 and the housing 110 can be defined by the cooperation between the support member 132 and the installation groove 111, reducing the possibility of the button 130 separating from the housing 110 before the circuit board 140 is assembled to the housing 110, thereby improving the assembly efficiency of the electronic device 100.

[0076] In addition, compared with the prior art in which an elastic member is provided to provide a reset force for the button, in the example of the present application, when the button body 131 abuts against the switch 141 under pressure, the support member 132 deforms under the drive of the button body 131. After the pressure applied to the button body 131 is removed, the support member 132 can recover its deformation and drive the button body 131 to reset. Therefore, the button 130 can be reset by the support member 132. Compared with the prior art in which an elastic member is provided to provide a reset force for the button 130, the use of the elastic member is saved, making the structure of the electronic device 100 simpler.

[0077] Based on the electronic device 100 provided by the above example, Figure 6 For a schematic structural view of a button provided by an example of the present application, please refer to Figures 4 to 6 , the installation groove 111 can include a first sub-groove 1111 and a second sub-groove 1112 that are arranged at intervals. The support member 132 can include a first support 1321 and a second support 1322. Part of the first support 1321 extends into the first sub-groove 1111, and part of the second support 1322 extends into the second sub-groove 1112.

[0078] The first support 1321 and the second support 1322 can be connected to the circumferential side of the button body 131 at intervals. When the button 130 is engaged with the housing 110, the first support 1321 cooperates with the first sub-groove 1111, and the second support 1322 cooperates with the second sub-groove 1112. The first support 1321 and the first sub-groove 1111 can be in surface contact, or the first support 1321 and the first sub-groove 1111 can be in line contact. The second support 1322 and the second sub-groove 1112 can be in surface contact, or the second support 1322 and the second sub-groove 1112 can be in line contact.

[0079] Based on the above, when the button 130 is engaged with the housing 110, since the first sub-groove 1111 and the second sub-groove 1112 are spaced apart, the positions where the first support 1321 engages with the first sub-groove 1111 and the positions where the second support 1322 engages with the second sub-groove 1112 are spaced apart. Based on this, the engagement of the first support 1321 with the first sub-groove 1111 and the engagement of the second support 1322 with the second sub-groove 1112 can limit the position of the button 130 relative to the housing 110 from different positions, ensuring the connection reliability between the button 130 and the housing 110 and reducing the possibility of the button 130 separating from the housing 110.

[0080] Based on the electronic device 100 provided in the above example, the first sub-groove 1111 and the second sub-groove 1112 can be symmetrically arranged on the periphery of the mounting hole 113. The first support 1321 and the second support 1322 can be symmetrically arranged on the periphery of the button body 131. When the button 130 is engaged with the housing 110, part of the first support 1321 can extend into the first sub-groove 1111 and engage with the first sub-groove 1111, and part of the second support 1322 can extend into the second sub-groove 1112 and engage with the second sub-groove 1112.

[0081] Based on this, since the first sub-groove 1111 and the second sub-groove 1112 are symmetrically arranged on the periphery of the mounting hole 113, and the first support 1321 and the second support 1322 are symmetrically arranged on the periphery of the button body 131. When the button 130 is engaged with the housing 110, the first support 1321 and the first sub-groove 1111, and the second support 1322 and the second sub-groove 1112 can limit the position of the button 130 relative to the housing 110 on the two opposite sides of the button body 131, making the force between the button 130 and the housing 110 more balanced, reducing the possibility of the button 130 tipping over relative to the housing 110, further ensuring the connection reliability between the button 130 and the housing 110, and reducing the possibility of the button 130 separating from the housing 110.

[0082] Based on the electronic device 100 provided in the above example, a limiting groove (not shown in the figure) is provided on the groove wall of the mounting groove 111 close to the circuit board 140, and the end of the support member 132 away from the button body 131 engages with the limiting groove.

[0083] The limiting groove can be a groove provided on the groove wall of the mounting groove 111, or the groove wall of the mounting groove 111 can be spaced with a plurality of protrusions, and a limiting groove can be formed between two adjacent protrusions. The present application example does not specifically limit the setting method of the limiting groove.

[0084] Based on the above, during the use of the electronic device 100, some of the support members 132 can extend into the limiting groove and cooperate with the limiting groove. Based on this, the groove wall of the limiting groove can limit the position of the support member 132 relative to the groove wall of the installation groove 111, reduce the amplitude of displacement of the support member 132 relative to the groove wall of the installation groove 111, and even prevent the support member 132 from displacing relative to the groove wall of the installation groove 111. Since the limiting groove is provided on the groove wall of the installation groove 111, the installation groove 111 is provided in the housing 110, and the support member 132 is part of the button 130, therefore, through the cooperation between the support member 132 and the limiting groove, the connection reliability between the button 130 and the housing 110 can be further ensured, and the possibility of the button 130 separating from the housing 110 can be reduced.

[0085] Based on the electronic device 100 provided in the above example, please refer to Figure 5 , an extension protrusion 112 is provided on the inner wall of the housing 110, and the extension protrusion 112 and the mating wall of the housing 110 cooperate to form the installation groove 111, and the mating wall is provided with an installation hole 113.

[0086] Based on the different setting positions of the extension protrusion 112, the specific setting manner of the extension protrusion 112 may be different.

[0087] Exemplarily, when the extension protrusion 112 is provided on the inner side wall of the housing 110, the extension protrusion 112 can be in a "one" shape. The extension protrusion 112 can be substantially parallel to the mating wall and cooperate to form the installation groove 111.

[0088] When the extension protrusion 112 is provided on the mating wall of the housing 110, the extension protrusion 112 can also be in an "L" shape. At this time, part of the extension protrusion 112 can be substantially parallel to the mating wall and cooperate to form the installation groove 111.

[0089] In the example of the present application, the extension protrusion 112 being substantially parallel to the mating wall means that the included angle between at least part of the extension protrusion 112 and the mating wall is less than or equal to 10 degrees.

[0090] Based on the above, the extension protrusion 112 and the mating wall of the housing 110 can cooperate to form the installation groove 111, and the installation groove 111 can cooperate with the support member 132. Since the installation groove 111 is provided in the housing 110 and the support member 132 is part of the button 130, therefore, through the cooperation between the support member 132 and the installation groove 111, the position of the button 130 relative to the housing 110 can be restricted, and the possibility of the button 130 separating from the housing 110 can be reduced.

[0091] Based on the electronic device 100 provided in the above example, the support member 132 may include a first support 1321 and a second support 1322, and the structures of the first support 1321 and the second support 1322 are similar. Next, taking the first support 1321 as an example, the specific structures of the first support 1321 and the second support 1322 will be described.

[0092] Please refer to Figure 6 , the first support 1321 may include a first connection section 13211, a second connection section 13212, and a mating section 13213. The first connection section 13211 may be connected to the side wall of the button body 131. The second connection section 13212 is connected to the end of the connection section away from the button body 131. The mating section 13213 is connected to the end of the second connection section 13212 away from the first connection section 13211, and the end of the mating section 13213 away from the second connection section 13212 extends into the installation groove 111.

[0093] The first connection section 13211 and the second connection section 13212 may be arranged at an angle, and the second connection section 13212 and the mating section 13213 may be arranged at an angle. The first connection section 13211 and the mating section 13213 may be parallel, the first connection section 13211 and the mating section 13213 may also be arranged at an angle, the mating section 13213 and the groove wall of the installation groove 111 may be in line contact, and the mating section 13213 and the groove wall of the installation groove 111 may also be in surface contact. The examples of this application do not make specific limitations on this.

[0094] The first connection section 13211 and the second connection section 13212 may be arranged at an angle, and the angle between the first connection section 13211 and the second connection section 13212 may be an acute angle, a right angle, an obtuse angle, or a straight angle.

[0095] The second connection section 13212 and the mating section 13213 may be arranged at an angle, and the angle between the second connection section 13212 and the mating section 13213 may be an acute angle, a right angle, an obtuse angle, or a straight angle.

[0096] The mating section 13213 and the first connection section 13211 may be substantially parallel. The mating section 13213 and the first connection section 13211 being substantially parallel means that the angle between the mating section 13213 and the first connection section 13211 is less than or equal to 10 degrees.

[0097] In the example of the present application, the first connecting section 13211 is connected to the side wall of the button body 131. During the process that the button body 131 moves towards the switch 141 under the action of pressure and abuts against the switch 141, the first connecting section 13211 moves in the direction towards the switch 141 or has a tendency to move in the direction towards the switch 141 under the drive of the button body 131, and the first connecting section 13211 can be deformed in the direction towards the switch 141.

[0098] Since the second connecting section 13212 is connected to the first connecting section 13211, the second connecting section 13212 moves in the direction towards the switch 141 or has a tendency to move in the direction towards the switch 141 under the drive of the first connecting section 13211, and the second connecting section 13212 is deformed in the direction towards the switch 141.

[0099] Since the mating section 13213 is connected to the second connecting section 13212, the mating section 13213 has a tendency to move in the direction towards the switch 141 under the drive of the second connecting section 13212 and abuts against the groove wall of the installation groove 111. Based on Newton's third law, the groove wall of the installation groove 111 can exert a reaction force away from the switch 141 on the mating section 13213. After the pressure acting on the button 130 is removed, the reaction force can make the mating section 13213 have a tendency to move away from the switch 141, and the mating section 13213 exerts a reaction force away from the switch 141 on the first connecting section 13211 through the second connecting section 13212, so that the deformed second connecting section 13212 and the first connecting section 13211 can recover their deformation. Since the button body 131 is connected to the first connecting section 13211, the recovery of the deformation of the first connecting section 13211 can drive the button body 131 to reset, facilitating the operator to perform the next operation.

[0100] Based on the electronic device 100 provided in the above example, please refer to Figure 4 , the first connecting section 13211 is in surface contact with the groove wall of the installation groove 111.

[0101] At least a part of the first connecting section 13211 can be parallel to the groove wall of the installation groove 111 to achieve the surface contact between the first connecting section 13211 and the groove wall of the installation groove 111.

[0102] Based on the above, by setting the first connecting section 13211 to contact the groove wall surface of the installation groove 111, the cooperation between the first connecting section 13211 and the installation groove 111 can be made more reliable, and the amplitude of shaking of the first connecting section 13211 relative to the installation groove 111 can be reduced. Since the first connecting section 13211 is a part of the support member 132, the support member 132 is a part of the button 130, and the installation groove 111 is provided in the housing 110, therefore, by setting the first connecting section 13211 to contact the groove wall surface of the installation groove 111, the amplitude of shaking of the support member 132 relative to the installation groove 111 can be reduced, thereby ensuring the connection reliability between the button 130 and the housing 110.

[0103] Based on the electronic device 100 provided in the above example, referring to Figure 1 , the electronic device 100 may further include a cover 120, and the cover 120 is detachably connected to the outer wall of the housing 110.

[0104] The cover 120 can be connected to the housing 110 by means of snap connection, the cooperation of the installation hole 113 and the installation protrusion, and threaded connection.

[0105] The cover 120 may be provided with a marking structure, and the marking structure may be at least one of characters, patterns, colors, etc. The marking structure can mark the model, specification, name, etc. of the electronic device 100, which is convenient for the user to distinguish the electronic device 100.

[0106] Based on the above, the housing 110 can provide an installation carrier for the cover 120. Since the cover 120 is detachably connected to the housing 110, during the use of the electronic device 100, if one of the cover 120 and the housing 110 is damaged, the damaged one can be replaced, thereby reducing the use cost of the electronic device 100.

[0107] Based on the electronic device 100 provided in the above example, Figure 7 is a schematic structural diagram of a cover provided by an example of the present application, Figure 8 is a schematic structural diagram of a housing provided by an example of the present application.

[0108] The second connection structure 123 and the first connection structure 122 can be provided on different sides of the housing body 121. The housing 120 can be generally circular, triangular, quadrilateral, pentagonal, etc., or the housing 120 can also be in an irregular shape.

[0109] For example, when the housing 120 can be generally quadrilateral, the first connection structure 122 and the second connection structure 123 can be provided on two spaced-apart sides of the housing 120, or the first connection structure 122 and the second connection structure 123 can also be provided on two adjacent sides of the housing 120. The setting position of the third connection structure 114 is adapted to the setting position of the first connection structure 122, and the setting position of the fourth connection structure 115 is adapted to the setting position of the second connection structure 123. The present application does not limit the specific setting of the first connection structure 122 and the second connection structure 123, as long as the first connection structure 122 and the third connection structure 114 cooperate, and the second connection structure 123 and the fourth connection structure 115 cooperate to connect the housing 120 to the housing 110.

[0110] The first connection structure 122 can be provided with one, or the first connection structure 122 can also be provided with multiple. The third connection structure 114 cooperates with the first connection structure 122. The number of the third connection structure 114 can be equal to the number of the first connection structure 122, and the third connection structure 114 and the first connection structure 122 are in one-to-one correspondence. One of the first connection structure 122 and the third connection structure 114 can be a hook, and the other can be a slot. Or, one of the first connection structure 122 is a protrusion, and the other is a groove.

[0111] The second connection structure 123 can be provided with one, or the second connection structure 123 can also be provided with multiple. The fourth connection structure 115 cooperates with the second connection structure 123. The number of the fourth connection structure 115 can be equal to the number of the second connection structure 123, and the fourth connection structure 115 and the second connection structure 123 are in one-to-one correspondence. One of the second connection structure 123 and the fourth connection structure 115 can be a hook, and the other can be a slot. Or, one of the second connection structure 123 is a protrusion, and the other is a groove.

[0112] The present application does not limit the specific implementation manners of the first connection structure 122, the second connection structure 123, the third connection structure 114, and the fourth connection structure 115, as long as the cooperation between the first connection structure 122 and the third connection structure 114, and the cooperation between the second connection structure 123 and the fourth connection structure 115 can ensure the connection reliability between the housing 120 and the housing 110.

[0113] Based on the above, since both the first connection structure 122 and the second connection structure 123 are provided on the housing body 121, the housing body 121 is a part of the housing 120, and both the third connection structure 114 and the fourth connection structure 115 are provided on the housing 110. Therefore, through the cooperation of the first connection structure 122 and the third connection structure 114, and the cooperation of the second connection structure 123 and the fourth connection structure 115, the connection between the housing 120 and the housing 110 can be realized, ensuring the connection reliability between the housing 120 and the housing 110.

[0114] Based on the electronic device 100 provided in the above example, please refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8 , the first connection structure 122 may include at least one hook structure, the third connection structure 114 may include at least one slot structure, and the slot structure cooperates with the hook structure. The second connection structure 123 may include at least one protrusion structure, the fourth connection structure 115 may include at least one groove structure, and the groove structure cooperates with the protrusion structure.

[0115] On the basis of including one hook structure, the first connection structure 122 may further include other hook structures and protrusion structures, and the third connection structure 114 is adapted to the first connection structure 122.

[0116] On the basis of including one hook structure, the second connection structure 123 may further include other hook structures and protrusion structures, and the fourth connection structure 115 is adapted to the second connection structure 123.

[0117] Based on the above, by setting the first connection structure 122 to include at least one hook structure and the third connection structure 114 to include at least one slot structure, the connection reliability between the housing 120 and the housing 110 can be ensured through the cooperation of the hook structure and the slot structure, reducing the amplitude of the housing 120 shaking relative to the housing 110. On this basis, by setting the second connection structure 123 to include at least one protrusion structure and the fourth connection structure 115 to include at least one groove structure, the connection reliability between the housing 120 and the housing 110 can be further ensured, and the assembly difficulty between the housing 120 and the housing 110 can be reduced.
