[0029] Figure 6 yes Figure 1 Another cross-sectional schematic diagram of the support plate at AA' is shown. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0030] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of this application clearer, the implementation methods of this application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0031] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the exploded structure of a shell provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 2 yes Figure 1 The housing 000 may include: a support plate 100 , a frame 200 and a conductive adhesive portion 300 .

[0032] The support plate 100 in the housing 000 may include a support plate body 101, and a first conductive layer 102 and a second conductive layer 103 located on either side of the support plate body 101. The support plate 100 may support the display module and functional components of the electronic device. For example, the functional components of the electronic device may include a battery, a speaker, or a circuit board.

[0033] It should be noted that the support plate body 101 in the support plate 100 can be a plate-like structure supported by a carbon fiber material. Here, since carbon fiber material has the advantages of high strength and thin thickness, for example, when the support plate body 101 is made of carbon fiber material, the overall thickness of the support plate 100 can range from 0.1 mm to 0.2 mm. Therefore, when the material of the support plate body 101 in the support plate 100 is selected from carbon fiber material, it can be ensured that the support plate 100 has a good support effect on the display module and functional components of the electronic device, thereby ensuring that the overall thickness of the electronic device is relatively thin.

[0034] The frame 200 in the housing 000 can be annular, and the support plate 100 can be connected to one side of the frame 200. The frame 200 and the support plate 100 can form a cabin for carrying functional components. Here, the first conductive layer 102 in the support plate 100 can be closer to the frame 200 than the second conductive layer 103.

[0035] The conductive adhesive portion 300 in the housing 000 can be located between the frame 200 and the first conductive layer 102 in the support plate 100, and can be bonded to the frame 200 and the first conductive layer 102, respectively. That is, one side of the conductive adhesive portion 300 can be bonded to the frame 200, and the other side of the conductive adhesive portion 300 can be bonded to the first conductive layer 102 in the support plate 100. Here, the conductive adhesive portion 300 can electrically connect the first conductive layer 102 in the support plate 100 to the frame 200, thereby allowing the support plate 100 to be grounded through the frame 200.

[0036] It should be noted that in related art, the middle frame of an electronic device typically includes a support plate and an annular frame. The support plate is typically formed from a metal alloy such as stainless steel or aluminum alloy. Support plates formed from metal alloys are typically thicker, which can easily lead to a thicker overall thickness of the electronic device.

[0037] Furthermore, static electricity is easily introduced into the support plate, which can significantly reduce the radiation effect of the antenna in the electronic device. Therefore, the support plate and the annular frame are typically connected by welding, allowing the support plate to be grounded through the frame to prevent static electricity from interfering with the antenna in the electronic device. However, welding between the support plate and the annular frame often results in poor solder joints, which reduces the reliability of the midframe.

[0038] To this end, in the embodiment of the present application, since the conductive adhesive portion 300 in the shell 000 can be respectively bonded to the frame 200 and the first conductive layer 102 in the support plate 100, the support plate 100 can be grounded through the frame 200 through the conductive adhesive portion 300. In this way, there is no need to use welding to electrically connect the frame 200 and the support plate 100. The static electricity introduced by the support plate 100 can be introduced into the frame 200 through the conductive adhesive portion 300, so that the probability of static electricity being introduced into the support plate 100 can be reduced, thereby ensuring that static electricity is not likely to interfere with the antenna in the electronic device.

[0039] In addition, since the support plate body 101 in the support plate 100 is a plate-like structure supported by carbon fiber material, the grounding effect of the support plate 100 through the frame 200 can be better while ensuring the overall thickness of the electronic device is relatively thin, thereby ensuring the high reliability of the electronic device.

[0040] In summary, the embodiment of the present application provides a shell, comprising: a support plate, a frame and a conductive adhesive portion. Since the conductive adhesive portion in the shell can be bonded to the first conductive layer in the frame and the support plate respectively, the support plate can be grounded through the frame through the conductive adhesive portion. In this way, there is no need to electrically connect the frame and the support plate by welding. The static electricity introduced by the support plate can be introduced into the frame through the conductive adhesive portion, thereby reducing the probability of static electricity introduced by the support plate, thereby ensuring that static electricity is not likely to interfere with the antenna in the electronic device. In addition, since the support plate body in the support plate is a plate-like structure supported by carbon fiber material, the grounding effect of the support plate through the frame can be better while ensuring that the overall thickness of the electronic device is thin, thereby ensuring that the reliability of the electronic device is high.

[0041] In the examples of this application, please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 3This is a schematic diagram of a partial structure of a frame provided in an embodiment of the present application. The frame 200 in the housing 000 may have a bearing groove U on the side facing the support plate 100. At least a portion of the conductive adhesive portion 300 in the housing 000 may be located within the bearing groove U to bond with the frame 200. The side of the conductive adhesive portion 300 facing away from the bearing groove U may bond with the first conductive layer 102 in the support plate 100 at an edge of the support plate 100.

[0042] In this way, it can be ensured that the carrying groove U in the frame 200 and at least part of the conductive adhesive portion 300 distributed in the carrying groove U will not occupy too much space in the frame 200, thereby ensuring a high space utilization rate of the frame 200.

[0043] In the examples of this application, please refer to Figure 4 , Figure 4 Schematic diagram of the exploded structure of another housing provided by an embodiment of the present application. The frame 200 in the housing 000 may further have a first connection hole 200a, and the edge of the support plate 100 in the housing 000 may have a second connection hole 100a that communicates with the first connection hole 200a in the frame 200.

[0044] The housing 000 may further include a conductive connector 400 for connecting the first connection hole 200a in the frame 200 and the second connection hole 100a in the support plate 100. The conductive connector 400 may contact the frame 200 within the first connection hole 200a. The conductive connector 400 may also contact the side of the second conductive layer 103 facing away from the support plate body 101. For example, the conductive connector 400 may include a conductive screw.

[0045] In this case, not only can the frame 200 and the support plate 100 be locked together through the conductive connector 400 so that the frame 200 and the support plate 100 can be stably connected together, but the second conductive layer 103 in the support plate 100 can also be electrically connected to the frame 200 through the conductive connector 400, so that the support plate 100 can be grounded through the frame 200. In this way, static electricity introduced by the support plate 100 can be introduced into the frame 200 through the conductive connector 400, thereby reducing the probability of static electricity being introduced by the support plate 100, and thus ensuring that static electricity is unlikely to interfere with the antenna in the electronic device.

[0046] In this application, if Figure 4As shown, the conductive connector 400 in the housing 000 may include a connecting rod 401 and an abutting portion 402. One end of the connecting rod 401 in the conductive connector 400 may pass through the second connecting hole 100a in the support plate 100 and connect to the first connecting hole 200a in the frame 200. The abutting portion 402 in the conductive connector 400 may connect to the other end of the second connecting hole 100a in the support plate 100. The abutting portion 402 in the conductive connector 400 may also contact a side of the second conductive layer 103 in the support plate 100 that faces away from the support plate body 101.

[0047] In this case, the static electricity introduced by the support plate 100 can be introduced into the frame 200 in the shell 000 through the abutment portion 402 in the conductive connector 400 and the connecting rod body 401 in sequence, so that the static electricity is not likely to interfere with the antenna in the electronic device.

[0048] In the embodiment of the present application, the housing 000 may include multiple conductive adhesive portions 300 and multiple conductive connectors 400. The multiple conductive adhesive portions 300 and the multiple conductive connectors 400 may be respectively distributed on opposite sides of the frame 200. Thus, the coordinated action of the multiple conductive adhesive portions 300 and the multiple conductive connectors 400 ensures a high degree of reliability in grounding the support plate 100 through the frame 200.

[0049] In this way, the static electricity introduced by the support plate 100 can be introduced into the frame 200 as much as possible through the multiple conductive adhesive parts 300 and the multiple conductive connectors 400 in the shell 000, thereby making the probability of the support plate 100 introducing static electricity lower, and further ensuring that static electricity is not likely to interfere with the antenna in the electronic device.

[0050] Here, since the multiple conductive adhesive parts 300 and the multiple conductive connectors 400 can be respectively distributed on the two opposite sides of the frame 200, it can be ensured that the multiple conductive adhesive parts 300 and the multiple conductive connectors 400 will not interfere with each other, thereby ensuring that the reliability of the shell 000 is high.

[0051] In the examples of this application, please refer to Figure 5 , Figure 5: is a schematic diagram of the exploded structure of another shell provided in an embodiment of the present application. The shell 000 may further include: an adhesive layer 500 located between the frame 200 and the first conductive layer 102. The adhesive layer 500 in the shell 000 may be annular, and the adhesive layer 500 may be bonded to the frame 200 and the first conductive layer 102 in the support plate 100, respectively. That is, one side of the adhesive layer 500 may be bonded to the frame 200, and the other side of the adhesive layer 500 may be bonded to the first conductive layer 102 in the support plate 100. In this way, the frame 200 and the support plate 100 may be bonded together through the adhesive layer 500, so that the connection between the frame 200 and the support plate 100 is more stable.

[0052] In this application, if Figure 5 As shown, the orthographic projection of the adhesive layer 500 in the housing 000 on the frame 200 may not overlap with the orthographic projection of the conductive adhesive portion 300 in the housing 000 on the frame 200. In this way, while ensuring a good bonding effect of the adhesive layer 500 in the housing 000, it is unlikely that the adhesive layer 500 in the housing 000 and the conductive adhesive portion 300 in the housing 000 will interfere with each other.

[0053] In the examples of this application, please refer to Figure 6 , Figure 6 yes Figure 1 Another schematic cross-sectional view of the support plate at line AA' is shown. The support plate 100 in the housing 000 may further include a conductive connection portion 104 connected to the outer edge of the support plate body 101. The conductive connection portion 104 may be distributed around the support plate body 101 in the support plate 100, and a portion of the conductive connection portion 104 may be connected to the first conductive layer 102 in the support plate 100, while another portion of the conductive connection portion 104 may be connected to the second conductive layer 103 in the support plate 100.

[0054] It should be noted that a portion of the conductive connection portion may be formed simultaneously with the first conductive layer 102 in the support plate 100 , and another portion of the conductive connection portion may be formed simultaneously with the second conductive layer 103 in the support plate 100 .

[0055] In summary, the embodiment of the present application provides a shell, comprising: a support plate, a frame and a conductive adhesive portion. Since the conductive adhesive portion in the shell can be bonded to the first conductive layer in the frame and the support plate respectively, the support plate can be grounded through the frame through the conductive adhesive portion. In this way, there is no need to electrically connect the frame and the support plate by welding. The static electricity introduced by the support plate can be introduced into the frame through the conductive adhesive portion, thereby reducing the probability of static electricity introduced by the support plate, thereby ensuring that static electricity is not likely to interfere with the antenna in the electronic device. In addition, since the support plate body in the support plate is a plate-like structure supported by carbon fiber material, the grounding effect of the support plate through the frame can be better while ensuring that the overall thickness of the electronic device is thin, thereby ensuring that the reliability of the electronic device is high.

[0056] The present application also provides an electronic device, which can be any product or component with a display function, such as a mobile phone, tablet computer, television, advertising machine, display screen, digital photo frame, or vehicle-mounted terminal. The electronic device can include a housing and a display module connected to the housing. The housing in the electronic device can be any of the housings described in the above embodiments.
