[0048] In this embodiment, the information interaction module 2 can be arranged in the accommodating cavity R and electrically connected to the touch display panel 3 through the via holes provided on the shell 1, or the information interaction module 2 can be directly arranged on the first surface F1 to facilitate electrical connection with the touch display panel 3.

[0049] Optionally, the depth of the first groove C1 is greater than or equal to the thickness of the touch display panel 3 , so as to form enough space to accommodate the touch display panel 3 .

[0050] See also Figure 4 as well as Figure 5In some optional embodiments, the shell 1 includes a first plate body 11 and side panels 12 arranged on each side of the first plate body 11, and the extension direction of the side panels 12 intersects with the extension direction of the first plate body 11; the accommodating cavity R is surrounded by the first plate body 11 and the side panels 12.

[0051] In this embodiment, the first plate 11 and the side plate 12 form a semi-open shell 1, so that the shell 1 can be used as a mobile phone case, that is, the mobile phone can be fixed in the accommodating cavity R, facilitating information interaction between the cold wallet structure and the mobile phone.

[0052] See also Figure 4 In some optional embodiments, the housing 1 includes a first opening K1 provided on the first plate 11 , and the touch display panel 3 includes a flexible circuit board, which is electrically connected to the control chip 21 through the first opening K1 .

[0053] It can be understood that in this embodiment, the information interaction module 2 can be fixed in the accommodating cavity R. In order to achieve electrical connection between the touch display panel 3 and the control chip 21, a first opening K1 can be formed on the shell 1 near the touch display panel 3, or on the shell 1 on the back of the touch display panel 3, so that the interface of the flexible circuit board of the touch display panel 3 can be electrically connected to the control chip 21 through the first opening K1. Specifically, the connection can be achieved by means of wires, conductive glue, etc.

[0054] Optionally, the shell 1 includes a second opening K2, which is provided on the first plate 11. The second opening K2 is used to accommodate optical elements of the mobile phone.

[0055] See also Figure 3 In some optional embodiments, the control chip 21 is disposed on the first surface F1, and a first protective layer is provided on the side of the control chip 21 facing away from the housing 1. Considering that the control chip 21 is disposed on the first surface F1 and is exposed to the outside, it is easily damaged or contaminated. Therefore, a first protective layer can be provided on the surface of the control chip 21 to protect the control chip 21 from damage or contamination by foreign matter. Optionally, the first protective layer can be made of materials such as resin and silicone.

[0056] In some optional embodiments, a second protective layer is provided on the first surface F1 and the side of the touch display panel 3 facing away from the housing 1 .

[0057] It is understandable that since the first surface F1 and the surface of the touch display panel 3 facing away from the housing 1 are exposed and easily damaged, they can also be protected by a second protective layer as long as the second protective layer does not affect the touch function of the touch display panel 3.

[0058] It should be noted that the first protective layer and the second protective layer may be provided at the same time, or only one of them may be provided. The specific selection may be made according to actual needs and is not particularly limited.

[0061] See also Figures 8 to 10 In some optional embodiments, the shell 1 includes a first part D1 and a second part D2 connected to each other, and the first part D1 and the second part D2 form a closed accommodating cavity R; the information interaction module 2 is arranged in the accommodating cavity R.

[0062] It can be understood that in this embodiment, the first part D1 and the second part D2 can be fixedly connected by means of snap connection, hinge, etc. to form a closed accommodating cavity R to accommodate the information interaction module 2. The shell 1 in this embodiment does not have the function of a mobile phone case and can be used as a separate component. The information interaction module 2 is arranged in the accommodating cavity R, which effectively prevents the information interaction module 2 from being damaged or lost, thereby improving the reliability of the cold wallet structure.

[0063] Optionally, one of the first part D1 and the second part D2 is provided with a snap fastener, and the other is provided with a groove portion corresponding to the snap fastener, so that the snap fastener can be engaged with the groove portion to achieve snap-fit ​​fixation of the first part D1 and the second part D2.

[0064] Optionally, the cold wallet structure further includes a fixing member provided on the first part D1, and the information interaction module 2 is fixed by the fixing member; the first groove C1 is provided on a side surface of the second part D2 away from the first part D1.

[0065] It should be noted that the fixing member in this embodiment can be a bolt, a rubber layer, a limiting column or other structural components. As long as the information interaction module 2 can be stably fixed to the first part D1, the specific structural form of the fixing member is not particularly limited.

[0066] See also Figure 9In order to better cooperate with mobile terminals such as mobile phones that need to conduct transactions, in some optional embodiments, a magnetic component 4 can be set in the accommodating cavity R, and the magnetic component 4 can be directly adsorbed on the back side of the mobile phone to facilitate information exchange between the two.

[0067] See also Figure 10 Alternatively, considering that when the magnetic component 4 is disposed in the accommodating cavity R, the shell 1 may affect the magnitude of the magnetic force between the magnetic component 4 and the mobile phone, the magnetic component can also be disposed outside the shell 1 so that the magnetic component 4 can directly contact the mobile phone or other mobile terminal to achieve magnetic fixation.

[0068] For example, a magnetic component 4 is provided on the surface of the first portion D1 facing away from the second portion D2 to prevent the magnetic component 4 from affecting the touch display panel 3 located in the second portion D2 and facilitate users to use the touch display panel 3.

[0069] In some optional embodiments, the cold wallet structure further includes a support assembly provided on the outer surface of the housing 1, the support assembly being used to support the housing 1 for easy placement. The support assembly may include a support column, a support platform, and other structures.

[0070] The cold wallet structure provided in the embodiments of this application has two different forms: a mobile phone case and a magnetic device. Both are easy to carry and support passive transaction scenarios. This can overcome the shortcomings of mobile payment in the absence of a network and provide portability and security for cold wallet transactions. The added ink screen display medium can also retain the display interface after power failure. It can also support user-customizable display content as decoration.

[0071] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of the present application, but the scope of protection of the present application is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art can easily conceive of various equivalent modifications or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed in the present application, and such modifications or substitutions should be included in the scope of protection of the present application.
