Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of electronic equipment, and in particular to an electronic equipment. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of science and technology, the development of electronic devices (mobile phones, tablets, smart watches, etc.) is also accelerating. Electronic devices are usually equipped with camera modules, which can be used to take photos and videos. The camera module needs to be sealed to ensure that dust can not enter the camera module during the production process or in scenarios such as disassembly and maintenance, thereby reducing the photography effect of the electronic device. In some electronic devices, the camera module is close to the vibration module, and the sealing structure of the camera module will reduce the vibration effect of the vibration module. Utility Model Content

[0003] An embodiment of the present application provides an electronic device for solving the problem that the sealing structure of a camera module may reduce the vibration effect of a vibration module.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the embodiments of the present application adopt the following technical solutions:

[0005] An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a middle frame, a screen, a camera module, a vibration module, and a sealing structure. The camera module and the vibration module are spaced apart along a first direction on the middle frame, the sealing structure is located between the middle frame and the screen, and is distributed around the camera module, and the sealing structure is sealed to the middle frame and the screen, respectively. The sealing structure includes a first portion and a second portion that are sealed together, the first portion is located between the camera module and the vibration module, and the second portion is located on a side of the camera module away from the vibration module. The connection strength between the first portion and the screen is less than the connection strength between the second portion and the screen.

[0006] The camera module and the vibration module are sealed via a first portion. The connection strength between the first portion and the screen is relatively weak, resulting in a weaker suppression effect on screen vibrations. The side of the vibration module away from the first portion has no suppression effect on screen vibrations. Compared to solutions that use adhesive wrap around the camera module, this reduces the difference in vibration amplitude on both sides of the screen along the first direction, making the vibration amplitude more uniform along the first direction. This improves the vibration effect and reliability of the vibration module.

[0007] In one possible implementation, the camera module's orthographic projection onto the vibration module is located within the orthographic projection of the first portion onto the vibration module. The entire side of the camera module near the vibration module is sealed by the first portion, increasing the area of the first portion and further reducing its ability to suppress screen vibration.

[0008] In one possible implementation, the first portion comprises foam, and the second portion comprises adhesive. The middle frame and screen mate so that the foam compresses and fills the gap between them, thereby enabling the first portion to seal the camera module. The adhesive can be optical adhesive, which offers advantages such as high adhesion, water resistance, high temperature resistance, and UV resistance.

[0009] In one possible implementation, the distance between the second portion and the vibration module is greater than or equal to 2 mm. That is, in any direction, the distance between the second portion and the vibration module is greater than or equal to 2 mm, further reducing the second portion's ability to suppress screen vibration and making the vibration amplitude of the screen more uniform on both sides of the vibration module in any direction.

[0010] In one possible implementation, the vibration module includes a main body and a skirt portion surrounding the main body, wherein the main body and the skirt portion are connected. The side wall of the skirt portion adjacent to the camera module is a first connecting wall, and the first connecting wall includes a first connecting portion, a second connecting portion, and a third connecting portion connected in sequence along a second direction. The orthographic projection of the main body on the first connecting wall is located within the second connecting portion. In the first direction, the distance between the second portion and the second connecting portion is greater than or equal to 2 mm, and the second direction intersects the first direction.

[0011] The connection strength between the second part and the screen is relatively large, and the second connecting part is arranged corresponding to the main body. By setting the distance between the second part and the second connecting part to be greater than or equal to 2 mm, the distance between the second part and the main body is larger, thereby weakening the suppressing effect of the second part on the screen vibration, and making the amplitude of the screen on both sides of the vibration module along the first direction more uniform.

[0012] In one possible implementation, in the second direction, the size of the second connecting portion is greater than or equal to 70% of the size of the first connecting wall. This allows the second connecting portion to occupy a larger proportion of the first connecting wall, while the distance between the second portion and the second connecting portion is greater than or equal to 2 mm. This allows the second portion to be further away from most of the vibration module, further reducing the second portion's ability to suppress screen vibration and making the vibration amplitude of the screen more uniform on both sides of the vibration module along the first direction.

[0013] In a possible implementation, in the first direction, the distance between the first portion and the vibration module is greater than or equal to 0.1 mm, so as to avoid interference of the first portion with the vibration module and reduction of the vibration effect of the vibration module.

[0014] In one possible implementation, the minimum dimension of the first portion in the first direction is greater than or equal to 0.3 mm and less than or equal to 4 mm. The minimum dimension of the first portion is greater than or equal to 0.3 mm, making the first portion larger in the first direction, thereby improving the sealing effect of the first portion on the camera module. The minimum dimension of the first portion is less than or equal to 4 mm, preventing the first portion from being too large and occupying too much space within the electronic device.

[0015] In a possible implementation, in a direction perpendicular to the extension of the second portion, the minimum dimension of the second portion is greater than or equal to 1.5 mm, so that the dimension of the second portion is larger and the sealing reliability of the second portion is improved.

[0016] In one possible implementation, the sealing structure further includes a third portion, the third portion being sealedly connected to the first portion and the second portion, respectively, and both sides of the third portion being sealedly connected to the middle frame and the screen, respectively. The third portion is provided to achieve a sealed connection between the first portion and the second portion.

[0017] In one possible implementation, the distance between the first portion and the second portion is greater than or equal to 0.7 mm. This larger distance prevents the third portion from being applied to the first or second portion due to the accuracy of the dispensing equipment, which could cause bulging on the screen and improve the reliability of the electronic device.

[0018] In one possible implementation, the middle frame includes a frame and a middle plate connected to the inner surface of the frame. The camera module and the vibration module are spaced apart on the middle plate along a first direction. The second portion is disposed proximate to the frame. This isolates moisture and dust between the frame and the second portion, preventing moisture and dust from degrading the reliability of electronic components within the electronic device and extending the service life of the electronic device.

[0035] In the embodiments of this application, the terms "first," "second," and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be understood to indicate or imply relative importance or implicitly specify the number of the technical features indicated. Therefore, a feature specified as "first," "second," or "third" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features.

[0036] In the embodiments of the present application, the terms "comprises," "comprising," or any other variations thereof are intended to encompass non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus comprising a series of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not explicitly listed, or elements inherent to such process, method, article, or apparatus. In the absence of further limitations, an element defined by the phrase "comprising a ..." does not preclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article, or apparatus comprising the element.

[0037] An embodiment of the present application provides an electronic device, which is an electronic device having a camera function. Specifically, the electronic device can be a portable electronic device or other type of electronic device. For example, the electronic device can be a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a monitor, a camera, a laptop computer, a wearable device, etc. For ease of description, the following examples are all based on the example of a mobile phone.

[0038] See also Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a three-dimensional schematic diagram of an electronic device provided in an embodiment of the present application. As can be seen from the above, in this embodiment, the electronic device 100 is a mobile phone, and the electronic device 100 can be an approximately rectangular plate-shaped structure.

[0039] For the convenience of the following description, an XYZ coordinate system is established, defining the width direction of the electronic device 100 as the X-axis direction, the length direction of the electronic device 100 as the Y-axis direction, and the thickness direction of the electronic device 100 as the Z-axis direction. It can be understood that Figure 1 Only some components of the electronic device 100 are schematically shown, and the actual shapes, sizes, positions and structures of these components are not affected by the present invention. Figure 1 restrictions.

[0040] See also Figure 2 , Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of an electronic device provided in an embodiment of the present application. The electronic device 100 may include a screen 10, a back cover 20, a middle frame 30, and a camera module 40 (see FIG. Figure 1 Screen 10 can be used to display images, videos, etc. Screen 10 may include a translucent cover plate 11 and a display screen 12. Translucent cover plate 11 and display screen 12 are stacked. Translucent cover plate 11 is primarily used to protect and dustproof display screen 12. The material of translucent cover plate 11 includes, but is not limited to, glass. Display screen 12 may be a flexible display screen or a rigid display screen.

[0041] The back cover 20 may be used to protect internal electronic components of the electronic device 100 . The back cover 20 may be located on a side of the display screen 12 away from the light-transmitting cover plate 11 .

[0042] The middle frame 30 may include a frame 31 and a middle plate 32 that are connected to each other. The frame 31 may be located between the back cover 20 and the light-transmitting cover 11, and the frame 31 may be fixedly connected to the back cover 20. Exemplarily, the frame 31 may be fixedly connected to the back cover 20 by adhesive. The light-transmitting cover 11 may be fixed to the frame 31 by adhesive. The middle plate 32 is connected to the inner surface of the frame 31 to achieve the installation and fixation of the middle plate 32. Exemplarily, the middle plate 32 and the frame 31 may be made of metal materials, and the middle plate 32 may be fixed to the frame 31 by welding. The middle plate 32 may also be an integrally formed structure with the frame 31. The middle plate 32 serves as the structural "skeleton" of the electronic device 100.

[0043] The camera module can be used to take photos / videos, and the camera module can be fixedly connected to the middle plate 32 by means of threaded connection, clamping, welding, etc. The camera module in the embodiment of the present application can be a front camera in a mobile phone.

[0044] See also Figure 3 , Figure 3 Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of a partial structure of an electronic device. In some electronic devices, the electronic device may further include adhesive 51 and a vibration module 60. The adhesive 51 may be optically clear adhesive (OCA). The adhesive 51 is located between the middle frame 30 and the screen, and is sealed to the middle frame 30 and the screen respectively. The adhesive 51 surrounds the camera module 40, and the adhesive 51 enables the camera module 40 to be sealed to achieve dust and water resistance.

[0045] The vibration module 60 can include any of a vibrator, a bone conduction device, a motor, a sound generator, and a speaker. The vibration module 60 has a vibration function. The transmission of vibration by the electronic device must be minimized by minimizing the obstruction of the vibration module 60 by other components. Furthermore, the forces acting on the screens on both sides of the vibration module 60 must be as uniform as possible to ensure a relatively even vibration amplitude.

[0046] The camera module 40 and the vibration module 60 are arranged on the middle frame 30 at intervals along a first direction, where the first direction is the Y-axis direction.

[0047] In the Y-axis direction, the distance between the camera module 40 and the vibration module 60 is relatively close, so that the distance between one side of the adhesive 51 and the vibration module 60 is relatively close. Figure 4 , Figure 4The figure is a schematic diagram of the cross-sectional structure of an electronic device. The adhesive backing 51 will tightly adhere the middle frame 30 to the screen 10, causing the screen 10 on the side of the vibration module 60 close to the adhesive backing 51 to be subjected to a greater adhesive force, resulting in a phenomenon of suppressing the vibration of the screen 10. When the vibration module 60 vibrates, the amplitude of the side of the vibration module 60 close to the adhesive backing 51 is weakened, while the side of the vibration module 60 away from the adhesive backing 51 does not suppress the vibration of the screen 10. In other words, the amplitude of the vibration module 60 on the side away from the adhesive backing 51 is greater than the amplitude of the vibration module 60 on the side close to the adhesive backing 51. The amplitude of the vibration module 60 on both sides along the Y-axis direction is uneven, causing the vibration decibel of the vibration module 60 to decrease by 3dB to 5dB, reducing the reliability of the vibration module 60.

[0048] See also Figure 5 , Figure 5 Schematic diagram of a partial structure of an electronic device provided in an embodiment of the present application. In order to solve the problem that the adhesive backing in the above-mentioned electronic device reduces the vibration effect of the vibration module, an electronic device is provided in an embodiment of the present application. The electronic device 100 may include a camera module 40, a vibration module 60 and a sealing structure 50. The sealing structure 50 is located between the middle frame 30 and the screen 10 ( Figure 5 The sealing structure 50 is sealed to the middle frame 30 on one side and to the screen 10 on the other side (not shown in the figure), and is arranged around the camera module 40. In other words, the middle frame 30, the screen 10, and the sealing structure 50 together form a sealed cavity 55, and the camera module 40 is located within the sealed cavity 55, thereby sealing the camera module 40 and preventing dust from entering the camera module 40 and reducing the photographic effect of the electronic device 100.

[0049] The sealing structure 50 includes a first portion 52 and a second portion 53 that are sealed together. The first portion 52 is at least partially located between the camera module 40 and the vibration module 60, and the second portion 53 is at least partially located on the side of the camera module 40 away from the vibration module 60. The connection strength between the first portion 52 and the screen 10 is less than the connection strength between the second portion 53 and the screen 10. In other words, the adhesion force of the first portion 52 to the screen 10 is less than the adhesion force of the second portion 53 to the screen 10.

[0050] The camera module 40 and the vibration module 60 are sealed by the first portion 52. The connection strength between the first portion 52 and the screen 10 is relatively low, and the first portion 52 has a relatively weak effect on suppressing screen vibration, thereby ensuring the vibration intensity of the screen on the side of the vibration module 60 close to the first portion 52. The first portion 52 has a relatively weak effect on suppressing screen vibration, while the side of the vibration module 60 away from the first portion 52 has no effect on suppressing screen vibration. The difference in the amplitude of the screen on both sides of the vibration module 60 along the Y-axis direction is relatively small. Compared with the solution of using adhesive around the outside of the camera module 40 (see Figure 4 ), which can reduce the difference in amplitude of the screens on both sides of the vibration module 60 along the Y-axis direction, making the amplitude of the screens on both sides of the vibration module 60 along the Y-axis direction more uniform, thereby improving the vibration effect of the vibration module 60 and improving the reliability of the vibration module 60.

[0051] In some embodiments, see Figure 5 The first portion 52 includes foam, which is a material made by expanding plastic particles and is compressible. The middle frame 30 and the screen cooperate so that the foam compresses and fills the gap between the middle frame 30 and the screen, thereby enabling the first portion 52 to seal the camera module 40.

[0052] For example, first portion 52 may be a double-sided foam tape, with one side of the tape bonded to the middle frame 30 and the other side bonded to the screen. Before attaching the tape to the electronic device, both sides of the tape may be covered with release film. This release film isolates sticky objects and facilitates transport of the tape. When the tape needs to be attached to the electronic device, the release film can be removed.

[0053] The second portion 53 can include adhesive, which can be optical adhesive. Optical adhesive has advantages such as high adhesion, water resistance, high temperature resistance, and UV resistance. The adhesive has strong adhesion to the screen, and the connection strength between the adhesive and the screen is greater than the connection strength between the foam and the screen. For example, if the first portion 52 includes foam and the second portion 53 includes adhesive, the decibel level of the vibration module 60 can be increased by 4dB to 4.5dB.

[0054] In some embodiments, see Figure 5 The camera module 40 and the vibration module 60 are arranged at intervals along the Y-axis direction on the middle plate 32, and the second part 53 is set close to the frame 31, isolating water vapor and dust between the frame 31 and the second part 53, thereby preventing water vapor and dust from reducing the reliability of electronic devices inside the electronic device 100 and extending the service life of the electronic device 100.

[0055] In some embodiments, see Figure 5A first mounting hole 321 is provided on the middle plate 32 and passes through the middle plate 32 . The camera module 40 is installed in the first mounting hole 321 . By providing the first mounting hole 321 and installing the camera module 40 , the structure of the electronic device 100 is made more compact.

[0056] In some embodiments, see Figure 5 A second mounting hole 322 is provided on the middle plate 32 and passes through the middle plate 32 . The vibration module 60 is installed in the second mounting hole 322 . By providing the second mounting hole 322 and installing the vibration module 60 , the structure of the electronic device 100 is made more compact.

[0057] In some embodiments, see Figure 6 , Figure 6 This is a partial structural diagram of another electronic device provided in an embodiment of the present application. The orthographic projection area of the camera module 40 on the vibration module 60 is located within the orthographic projection area of the first portion 52 on the vibration module 60. That is, the dimension of the first portion 52 along the X-axis is L1, and the dimension of the camera module 40 along the X-axis is L2, where L1 ≥ L2. The entire side of the camera module 40 near the vibration module 60 is sealed by the first portion 52, resulting in a larger area of the first portion 52, further reducing the first portion 52's ability to suppress screen vibration.

[0058] like Figure 6 As shown, the cross section of the vibration module 60 can be approximately rectangular, the cross section of the vibration module 60 can be rectangular, and the cross section of the vibration module 60 can also be in a positive direction. The embodiment of the present application does not limit the specific shape of the vibration module 60.

[0059] The cross section of the first portion 52 is approximately rectangular, and the dimension of the first portion 52 along the X-axis direction is L1.

[0060] The camera module 40 may include a first camera 41, a second camera 42, and an infrared light emitter 43 located between the first camera 41 and the second camera 42. The first camera 41, the infrared light emitter 43, and the second camera 42 are arranged along the X-axis direction. The infrared light emitter 43 is used to emit infrared light and has a ranging function, and can perform face recognition. The first camera 41 can be used to receive images for face recognition, and the second camera 42 can be used for ordinary photography. Alternatively, the first camera 41 and the second camera 42 can both be used for receiving images for face recognition and ordinary photography, so that the image field of view received by the electronic device 100 is wider.

[0061] It is understandable that the first mounting hole 321 may include three through holes, and the first camera 41 , the second camera 42 and the infrared light emitter 43 are correspondingly disposed in the three through holes.

[0062] The sealed cavity 55 enclosed by the middle frame 30, the screen 10, the first part 52, and the second part 53 is approximately rectangular. L2 is the distance from the end of the first camera 41 away from the infrared light emitter 43 to the end of the second camera 42 away from the infrared light emitter 43, and L1≥L2.

[0063] In some embodiments, see Figure 7 The camera module 40 may include a third camera 44, which is located in the first mounting hole 321. The cross-section of the third camera 44 may be circular, and the diameter of the third camera 44 along the X-axis is L2. In other embodiments, the cross-section of the third camera 44 may be rectangular or other shapes. The embodiment of the present application does not limit the shape of the cross-section of the third camera 44.

[0064] In some embodiments, see Figure 8 (a) and (b) in . Figure 8 In Figure (a), the vibration module 60 includes a main body 61 and a skirt 62 surrounding the main body 61, with the main body 61 and the skirt 62 connected. For example, the main body 61 is the structure that vibrates within the vibration module 60, while the skirt 62 surrounds the main body 61 and may provide a cushioning and protective structure for the main body 61. The provision of the skirt 62 extends the service life of the vibration module 60.

[0065] The side wall of the skirt portion 62 close to the camera module 40 is a first connecting wall 621. Figure 8 As shown in Figure (a), the outer contour of the skirt portion 62 is rectangular, and the first connecting wall 621 is one of the long sides of the skirt portion 62. The first connecting wall 621 includes a first connecting portion 622, a second connecting portion 623, and a third connecting portion 624, which are sequentially connected along a second direction, where the second direction is the X-axis. The orthographic projection of the main body 61 on the first connecting wall 621 is located within the second connecting portion 623. In the X-axis direction, the length of the main body 61 is L3, and the length of the second connecting portion 623 is L4, where L4 ≥ L3. The main body 61 is positioned corresponding to the second connecting portion 623. Figure 8 In the embodiment, L4=L3, in other embodiments, L4>L3.

[0066] See also Figure 8In Figure (b), in the Y-axis direction, the distance between the second part 53 and the second connecting part 623 is L5, L5 ≥ 2mm, the connection strength between the second part 53 and the screen 10 is relatively large, and the second connecting part 623 is arranged corresponding to the main body 61. By setting the distance L5 between the second part 53 and the second connecting part 623 to be greater than or equal to 2mm, the distance between the second part 53 and the main body 61 is larger, which weakens the suppression effect of the second part 53 on the screen vibration, and makes the amplitude of the screen on both sides of the vibration module 60 along the Y-axis direction more uniform.

[0067] Illustratively, L5 may be 2 mm, 2.5 mm, 3 mm, 3.5 mm, 4 mm, 4.5 mm or 5 mm, etc.

[0068] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 8 In Figures (a) and (b), along the X-axis, the size of the second connecting portion 623 is greater than or equal to 70% of the size of the first connecting wall 621. That is, along the X-axis, the length of the second connecting portion 623 is L4, and the total length of the first connecting wall 621 is L6, where L4 ≥ 0.7L6. This results in the second connecting portion 623 occupying a larger proportion of the first connecting wall 621, and the distance between the second portion 53 and the second connecting portion 623 is greater than or equal to 2 mm, making the second portion 53 farther away from most of the vibration module 60, further weakening the second portion 53's ability to suppress screen vibration, and making the screen vibration amplitude on both sides of the vibration module 60 along the Y-axis more uniform.

[0069] For example, L4 may be equal to 0.7L6, 0.75L6, 0.8L6, 0.85L6, 0.9L6, 0.95L6 or L6, etc. Figure 8 In Figures (a) and (b), L4=0.8L6.

[0070] See also Figure 9 , Figure 9 L4>L3, that is, in the X-axis direction, the length of the second connecting portion 623 is greater than the length of the main body 61. L4=L6, the length of the second connecting portion 623 is equal to the total length of the first connecting wall 621. It can be understood that when L4=L6, the first connecting wall 621 only includes the second connecting portion 623, and the first connecting wall 621 does not include the first connecting portion 622 and the third connecting portion 624. In the Y-axis direction, the distance between the second portion 53 and the first connecting wall 621 is greater than or equal to 2 mm, further weakening the suppression effect of the second portion 53 on the screen vibration, so that the amplitude of the screen on both sides of the vibration module 60 along the Y-axis direction is more uniform.

[0071] In some embodiments, the distance between the second portion 53 and the vibration module 60 is greater than or equal to 2 mm, that is, in any direction, the distance between the second portion 53 and the vibration module 60 is greater than or equal to 2 mm, further weakening the suppressing effect of the second portion 53 on the screen vibration, so that the amplitude of the screen on both sides of the vibration module 60 in any direction is more uniform.

[0072] like Figure 10 As shown in (a) of FIG. 1 , the vibration module 60 may have a square cross-section. The skirt portion 62 further includes a second connecting wall 625, which extends along the Y-axis and is connected to the first connecting wall 621. The second connecting wall 625 includes a first mounting portion 626, a second mounting portion 627, and a third mounting portion 628, which are sequentially connected along the Y-axis. The orthographic projection of the main body 61 on the second connecting wall 625 is located within the second mounting portion 627. In the Y-axis direction, the length of the main body 61 is L7, and the length of the second connecting portion 623 is L8, where L8 ≥ L7. The main body 61 is arranged corresponding to the second mounting portion 627. Figure 10 In Figures (a) and (b), L8=L7. In other embodiments, L8>L7.

[0073] Please refer to Figure 10 In Figures (a) and (b), in the X-axis direction, the distance between the second portion 53 and the second mounting portion 627 is L9, L9 ≥ 2 mm, L9 can be equal to L5, the connection strength between the second portion 53 and the screen is relatively large, the second mounting portion 627 is arranged corresponding to the main body 61, and by setting the distance L9 between the second portion 53 and the second mounting portion 627 to be greater than or equal to 2 mm, the distance between the second portion 53 and the main body 61 is larger, thereby reducing the suppressing effect of the second portion 53 on the screen vibration, and making the amplitude of the screen on both sides of the vibration module 60 along the X-axis direction more uniform.

[0074] Similarly, along the Y-axis, the size of the second mounting portion 627 can be greater than or equal to 70% of the size of the second connecting arm 625. This allows the second portion 53 to be spaced further away from the majority of the vibration module 60, further reducing the second portion 53's ability to suppress screen vibration and making the vibration amplitude of the screen on both sides of the vibration module 60 along the X-axis more uniform.

[0075] In other embodiments, the cross-section of the vibration module 60 may be circular, polygonal, or other shapes. The present embodiment does not limit the cross-section of the vibration module 60. It is understood that regardless of the cross-section shape of the vibration module 60, the distance between the second portion 53 and the vibration module 60 in any direction is greater than or equal to 2 mm.

[0076] Figure 8 Figure (b) in Figure 9 as well as Figure 10 As shown in FIG. 5( b ), the camera module 40 includes a first camera 41 , a second camera 42 , and an infrared light emitter 43 located between the first camera 41 and the second camera 42 .

[0077] In some embodiments, see Figure 11 The camera module 40 may also include a third camera 44 , and the shape and position of the first portion 52 and the second portion 53 may be flexibly adjusted according to the shape of the third camera 44 .

[0078] In some embodiments, see Figure 11 In the Y-axis direction, the distance L between the first portion 52 and the vibration module 60 is 10 , L 10 ≥0.1mm, to avoid the first portion 52 interfering with the vibration module 60 and causing the vibration effect of the vibration module 60 to be reduced. 10 It can be equal to 0.1mm, 0.2mm, 0.3mm, 0.4mm, 0.5mm, 0.6mm, 0.7mm, 0.8mm, 0.9mm or 1mm.

[0079] In some embodiments, see Figure 11 In the Y-axis direction, the minimum dimension of the first portion 52 is W1, and 0.3 mm ≤ W1 ≤ 4 mm. W1 ≥ 0.3 mm allows the first portion 52 to have a larger dimension along the Y-axis, thereby providing a better seal between the first portion 52 and the camera module 40. W1 ≤ 4 mm prevents the first portion 52 from being too large and occupying too much space within the electronic device 100.

[0080] Exemplarily, W1 may be equal to 0.3 mm, 0.4 mm, 0.5 mm, 0.6 mm, 0.7 mm, 0.8 mm, 0.9 mm, 1 mm, 1.2 mm, 1.5 mm, 2 mm, 2.5 mm, 3 mm, 3.5 mm, or 4 mm.

[0081] In some embodiments, see Figure 12 In a direction perpendicular to the extension of the second portion 53, the minimum dimension W2 of the second portion 53 can be greater than or equal to 1.5 mm, making the second portion 53 larger and improving the sealing reliability of the second portion 53. For example, the second portion 53 can include a connected rectangular segment 532 and an arcuate segment 533. The minimum dimension W2 of the rectangular segment 532 is the width of the rectangular segment 532. The minimum dimension W2 of the arcuate segment 533 is the distance between the tangent lines on both sides of the arcuate segment.

[0082] Exemplarily, 1.5 mm ≤ W2 ≤ 6 mm, W2 ≤ 6 mm, to avoid the second portion 53 being too large and causing the second portion 53 to occupy too much space inside the electronic device 100 .

[0083] Illustratively, W2 may be equal to 1.5 mm, 2 mm, 2.5 mm, 3 mm, 3.5 mm, 4 mm, 4.5 mm, 5 mm, 5.5 mm, or 6 mm.

[0084] In some embodiments, see Figure 13 The sealing structure 50 further includes a third portion 54. One end of the third portion 54 is sealed to the first portion 52, and the other end of the third portion 54 is sealed to the second portion 53. Both sides of the third portion 54 are sealed to the middle frame 30 and the screen, respectively. The third portion 54 is provided to achieve a sealed connection between the first portion 52 and the second portion 54. For example, the third portion 54 may be made of liquid silicone, liquid silicone rubber, liquid polyurethane glue, or liquid polyester elastic glue.

[0085] Before screen assembly, the glue must remain in place and prevent it from flowing. After screen assembly, the screen presses the glue apart to form a third portion 54. This third portion 54 must be soft and flexible to prevent it from interfering with the screen and causing bulging. Furthermore, the third portion 54 must maintain a reliable bond with the first portion 52, second portion 53, middle frame 30, and screen.

[0086] In some embodiments, see Figure 13 The distance between the first part 52 and the second part 53 is W3, W3 ≥ 0.7 mm, so that the distance between the first part 52 and the second part 53 is larger, avoiding the third part 54 being placed on the first part 52 or the second part 53 due to the accuracy of the dispensing equipment, causing the screen to bulge, thereby improving the reliability of the electronic device 100.

[0087] In some embodiments, see Figure 14 As shown in Figure (a), the third part 54 can be sealed and connected to the side of the first part 52 away from the camera module 40, and the third part 54 can be sealed and connected to the side of the second part 53 away from the camera module 40, so as to avoid the third part 54 being too close to the camera module 40, causing the third part 54 to interfere with the camera module 40 and reduce the picture clarity of the camera module 40.

[0088] In some embodiments, see Figure 14In Figure (b), the third portion 54 is circular. A first connecting groove 521 is formed at one end of the first portion 52 close to the second portion 53, and the edge of the first connecting groove 521 may be arc-shaped. A second connecting groove 531 is formed at one end of the second portion 53 close to the first portion 52, and the edge of the second connecting groove 531 may be arc-shaped. The first connecting groove 521 may be connected to the second connecting groove 531 to enclose an installation space 56, and the third portion 54 is located in the installation space 56. By providing the first connecting groove 521 with an arc-shaped edge, the contact area between the third portion 54 and the first portion 52 is increased, thereby improving the sealing reliability between the third portion 54 and the first portion 52. By providing the second connecting groove 531 with an arc-shaped edge, the contact area between the third portion 54 and the second portion 53 is increased, thereby improving the sealing reliability between the third portion 54 and the second portion 53.

[0089] Exemplarily, the installation process of the sealing structure includes the following steps:

[0090] See also Figure 15 Figures (a), (b), (c), (d), and (e), and Figure 16 Figures (a), (b), (c) and (d) in the figure.

[0096] like Figure 16As shown in FIG. 5( a ), a dispensing device 70 is provided. The dispensing device 70 places glue between the first portion 52 and the second portion 53 according to the shapes and positions of the first portion 52 and the second portion 53 . The accuracy of the dispensing device 70 can be within a range of 0.1 mm to 0.15 mm.

[0097] like Figure 16 As shown in FIG. 1 (b), a screen 10 is provided.

[0098] like Figure 16 As shown in Figure (c), a clamp 80 is provided. The clamp 80 includes a first clamp 81 and a second clamp 82. The first clamp 81 abuts against the screen 10, and the second clamp 82 abuts against the middle frame 30. The first part 52, the second part 53 and the third part 54 are all located between the screen 10 and the middle frame 30. The first clamp 81 and the second clamp 82 move in a direction of approaching each other, so that the screen 10 and the middle frame 30 approach each other. The first part 52 is squeezed and compressed by the screen 10 and the middle frame 30, and the second part 53 is bonded to the screen 10. The glue is pressed open and flows to the periphery to form the third part 53, and the third part 53 is sealed with the first part 52 and the second part 53. Then the first clamp 81 is separated from the screen 10, and the second clamp 82 is separated from the middle frame 30.
