[0040] Example 1
[0041] like Figure 1-7 As shown, the electronic device protective cover described in the embodiment of the present application includes an upper cover 1, a lower cover 2 and a flip-door mechanism 3. The side of the upper cover 1 is provided with a sound hole 4, a microphone hole 5 and a charging hole 6. The sound hole 4 and the microphone hole 5 are both sealed by a waterproof sound-permeable membrane 7. The lower cover 2 is provided with an embedding groove 8, and a waterproof rubber ring 9 is provided in the embedding groove 8. The upper cover 1 is snap-fitted with the lower cover 2, and the flip-door mechanism 3 is provided on the lower cover 2. The flip-door mechanism 3 is used to block the charging hole 6.
[0042] During use, when it is necessary to install the electronic device 36, first place the electronic device 36 in the lower cover 2, and then buckle the upper cover 1 on the lower cover 2. The waterproof and sound-permeable membrane 7 seals the sound outlet 4 and the microphone hole 5, so that the protective cover has a waterproof function while not blocking the propagation of sound. The waterproof rubber ring 9 seals between the upper cover 1 and the lower cover 2, and the flip-door mechanism 3 seals the charging hole 6 to ensure the overall waterproof effect of the protective cover, so that it can be suitable for use in harsh environments. When it is necessary to take out the electronic device 36, the flip-door mechanism 3 leaves the upper cover 1 and then removes the upper cover 1. When it is necessary to charge the electronic device 36, only the flip-door mechanism 3 needs to leave the upper cover 1, so as to avoid frequent removal of the electronic device 36 and improve the convenience of use.
[0043] In this embodiment, the flip door mechanism 3 includes a rotating shaft 10, a buckle cover 11 and a rubber pad 12. The rotating shaft 10 is arranged on the lower cover 2. One end of the buckle cover 11 can be rotatably installed on the rotating shaft 10. The other end of the buckle cover 11 is provided with a clamping block 13. The outside of the upper cover 1 is provided with a protrusion 14 that communicates with the charging hole 6. The outside of the protrusion 14 is provided with a protrusion 15. A card slot 16 is formed between the protrusion 15 and the upper cover 1. Under the action of external force, the card block 13 enters or leaves the card slot 16. The rubber pad 12 is provided on the buckle cover 11, and the rubber pad 12 is used to seal the protrusion 14.
[0044] During use, after snapping the upper cover 1 onto the lower cover 2, rotate the snap cover 11 and lock the card block 13 in the card slot 16. The snap cover 11 can be used to seal the protrusion 14, and the rubber pad 12 can seal between the snap cover 11 and the protrusion 14, thereby ensuring the waterproof effect at the charging port 6. When it is necessary to take out the electronic device 36 or charge the electronic device 36, apply force to the snap cover 11 to disengage the card block 13 from the card slot 16.
[0045] In this embodiment, an opening 17 is provided at one end of the upper cover 1 away from the lower cover 2, and a transparent touch film 18 is provided in the opening 17. The transparent touch film 18 is sealed and bonded to the edge of the opening 17. By designing the transparent touch film 18, the protective cover has a touch-screen function, thereby ensuring the use effect of the electronic device 36.
[0046] In this embodiment, the inner and outer sides of the upper cover 1 are made of TPU material, and the middle part of the upper cover 1 is made of PC material. Since the inner and outer sides of the upper cover 1 use soft-glue TPU, they can play a buffering role and ensure the protection effect of the electronic device 36. The middle part of the upper cover 1 uses PC hard material, which can ensure the firmness of the structure of the upper cover 1, so that the upper cover 1 as a whole has strong anti-fall and shockproof performance.
[0047] In this embodiment, a protective member 19 is provided on the lower cover 2. The protective member 19 is used to protect the camera. The protective member 19 can protect the camera without affecting the normal use of the camera.
[0048] In this embodiment, the protective member 19 is made of high-viscosity sponge, which can generate greater resistance when subjected to external force, thereby maintaining the stability of its shape and structure, thereby effectively protecting the camera.
[0049] In this embodiment, the upper cover 1 has a recessed portion 20 at one end close to the lower cover 2. Since the upper cover 1 and the lower cover 2 are connected by a snap-fit connection, a matching pry piece 35 is designed. The pry piece 35 acts on the recessed portion 20 to facilitate disassembly between the upper cover 1 and the lower cover 2, thereby making it easy to remove the electronic device 36.
[0050] Example 2
[0051] like Figure 8-13 As shown, this embodiment adds a support mechanism 21 on the basis of the first embodiment. The support mechanism 21 includes a support bracket 22 and a clamping assembly 23. The support bracket 22 is snap-fitted to the lower cover 2, and the clamping assembly 23 is snap-fitted to the support bracket 22. When in use, the lower cover 2 is snap-fitted to the support bracket 22, and the support bracket 22 is used to support the protective cover as a whole. The clamping assembly 23 can be used to clamp clothing components such as belts and trouser pockets, thereby improving the overall portability and preventing it from falling, so that it can be used in scenes such as outdoor activities.
[0052] In this embodiment, the chuck assembly 23 includes a rotating member 24, a swinging member 25, a pin 26 and a spring piece 27. The rotating member 24 is provided with a first through hole 28, and the end of the support bracket 22 away from the lower cover 2 passes through the first through hole 28. The end of the support bracket 22 away from the lower cover 2 is relatively provided with two clamping members 29, and the two clamping members 29 abut against the rotating member 24. Two first mounting seats 30 are relatively provided on the rotating member 24, and two second mounting seats 31 are relatively provided on the swinging member 25. The pin 26 is used to connect the first mounting seat 30 and the second mounting seat 31. The spring piece 27 is arranged between the rotating member 24 and the swinging member 25. Second through holes 32 are provided at both ends of the spring piece 27. Guide columns 37 are provided on the rotating member 24 and the swinging member 25. The guide columns 37 pass through the second through holes 32. The guide columns 37 are used to limit the spring piece 27 to ensure the use effect of the spring piece 27.
[0053] When in use, the swinging member 25 is pressed, the spring piece 27 is compressed, and the belt, trouser pocket and other clothing components are placed between the swinging member 25 and the rotating member 24, and then the swinging member 25 is released. Under the action of the rebound force of the spring piece 27, the belt, trouser pocket and other clothing components are firmly clamped between the swinging member 25 and the rotating member 24. When it is necessary to disassemble the rotating member 24 and the supporting frame 22, the two clamping members 29 are pressed to make the two clamping members 29 approach each other. At this time, the two clamping members 29 leave the rotating member 24, which facilitates the separation of the rotating member 24 and the supporting frame 22. When it is necessary to assemble the rotating member 24 and the swinging member 25, the clamping member 29 is passed through the first through hole 28, and the two clamping members 29 are used to press against the rotating member 24, so that the rotating member 24 and the supporting frame 22 can be assembled.
[0054] In this embodiment, a number of protrusions 33 are distributed in a circular array on the support bracket 22, and a number of grooves 34 are distributed in a circular array on the rotating member 24. The number of protrusions 33 and grooves 34 is the same. With this design, a tactile damping effect can be obtained every time a certain angle is rotated, and the user can fully experience the technological touch.
[0055] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application. Persons skilled in the art will readily appreciate that various modifications and variations are possible. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present application shall be included within the scope of protection of the present application.
