[0065] The smart terminal can be implemented in various forms. For example, the smart terminal described in the present application can include a smart terminal such as a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a notebook computer, a palmtop computer, a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), a Portable Media Player (PMP), a navigation device, a wearable device, a smart band, a pedometer, and a fixed terminal such as a digital TV, a desktop computer, and the like.
[0066] The display screen 40 is configured to display an image. For example, the display screen 40 can be any one of an LED display, an LCD display, and an OLED display, but is not limited thereto.
[0067] With the increase of the size of the optical image stabilizer, the size of the camera is also increased, and the accuracy of the camera position needs to be guaranteed by the support. In the case that the thickness of the terminal device is not increased, the distance between the shell of the camera and the partition plate of the middle frame is reduced along the thickness direction of the smart terminal, which makes it difficult to install the existing support. At the same time, the space between the shell of the camera and the top edge plate of the middle frame is reduced along the height direction of the smart terminal, which causes sealing difficulty.
[0068] Reference Figure 1 As shown in the prior art, the existing support has a positioning panel 70, which needs to occupy a certain thickness space during installation. When the distance between the shell of the camera and the partition plate of the middle frame is reduced, the space between the shell of the camera and the partition plate of the middle frame is difficult to accommodate the wall thickness of the positioning panel 70, so the existing support cannot be installed, which will affect the accuracy of the camera position.
[0069] Therefore, the present application provides a smart terminal, which sets an avoiding hole in the partition plate of the middle frame, and embeds the positioning part of the support in the avoiding hole, so that the positioning part of the support shares the thickness space occupied by the partition plate, thereby solving the problem that the support has no space to be arranged due to the increase of the size of the square shell of the camera, without increasing the thickness of the smart terminal, and meeting the positioning requirements of the camera.
[0070] Next, a smart terminal provided by an embodiment of the present application is described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0071] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown in the present application, a smart terminal is provided, which comprises a middle frame 10, a camera 20 and a support 30. The middle frame 10 has a partition plate 11. As shown in Figure 5 and Figure 6 The partition plate 11 is provided with a mounting hole 12, and an avoiding hole 13 and a limiting part 14 arranged along the edge of the mounting hole 12 at intervals. The avoiding hole 13 and the mounting hole 12 are in communication with each other. The camera 20 is arranged in the mounting hole 12. As shown in Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 The support 30 comprises at least two positioning parts 32, which are embedded in the avoiding hole 13 to reduce the thickness space occupied by the support 30 between the middle frame 10 and the camera 20.
[0072] The intelligent terminal provided in the application realizes that the positioning part 32 of the support 30 shares the thickness space occupied by the partition plate 11, thereby solving the problem that the support 30 has no space for arrangement due to the volume increase of the square shell of the camera 20, without increasing the thickness of the intelligent terminal, and meeting the positioning requirement of the camera 20.
[0073] In a possible implementation manner, the camera 20 in the application is a front camera, which can be a camera with an optical image stabilization (OIS) function. An optical image stabilizer is arranged in the shell 22 of the camera 20, and the optical image stabilizer is used to make the camera 20 have the function of anti-shake, reduce the imaging abnormal problems such as blurred or distorted shooting pictures caused by shaking, and realize the function of optical anti-shake.
[0074] Referring to Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 , the middle frame 10 is the main bearing part of the intelligent terminal, and the camera 20 can be preliminarily fixed in the mounting hole 12 of the partition plate 11, so that a larger gap can be left between the camera 20 and the mounting hole 12, to prevent the partition plate 11 from deforming and colliding with the camera 20, and to prevent the camera 20 from being damaged due to rigid collision between the camera 20 and the inner wall of the mounting hole 12 when the intelligent terminal falls.
[0075] The middle frame 10 further has a frame connected to the edge of the partition plate 11. The partition plate 11 divides the middle frame 10 into a front cavity 16 and a rear cavity 17. The mounting hole 12 is a through hole, and the mounting hole 12 communicates the front cavity 16 and the rear cavity 17. The display screen 40 and the loudspeaker can be arranged in the front cavity 16, and the battery and the camera 20 can be arranged in the rear cavity 17.
[0076] In a possible implementation manner, referring to Figure 5 and Figure 6 , the number of the avoidance holes 13 can be two, three, four or more. The limiting part 14 is formed between the two adjacent avoidance holes 13, and the avoidance holes 13 are arranged at intervals on the circumferential side of the mounting hole 12.
[0077] When the number of the avoidance holes 13 is even, the plurality of avoidance holes 13 are symmetrically distributed around the circumferential side of the mounting hole 12. Optionally, the mounting hole 12 can be a circular hole. Optionally, the avoidance hole 13 can be a through hole or a blind hole. Optionally, the support 30 is used to ensure the mounting accuracy of the camera 20.
[0078] In a possible implementation, the positioning portion 32 can be in the shape of a thin sheet or an arc-shaped thin sheet. The positioning portion 32 shares the thickness space with the partition plate 11, thereby reducing the overall thickness of the partition plate 11 and the support 30, and improving the optical anti-shake effect while preventing the thickness of the smart terminal from increasing when a larger size camera 20 is used.
[0079] In a possible implementation, the shape of the avoiding hole 13 is matched with the shape of the positioning portion 32. Such a structure is to make full use of the space in the avoiding hole 13, increase the size of the positioning portion 32, and help to improve the strength of the positioning portion 32 and ensure the positioning effect.
[0080] In a possible implementation, as shown in Figure 9 and Figure 10 , the two side walls of the positioning portion 32 respectively abut against the two side walls of the avoiding hole 13, that is, the two side walls of the positioning portion 32 respectively abut against the two adjacent limiting portions 14, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the position of the positioning portion 32.
[0081] As shown in Figure 6 and Figure 7 , the two adjacent positioning portions 32 form a hollow hole 34, and the limiting portion 14 is embedded in the hollow hole 34.
[0082] In a possible implementation, along the thickness direction of the partition plate 11, the thickness of the positioning portion 32 is consistent with the depth of the avoiding hole 13. The positioning portion 32 is completely embedded in the avoiding hole 13, preventing the positioning portion 32 from protruding from the avoiding hole 13, thereby preventing the positioning portion 32 from being difficult to be installed in the limited thickness space. The thickness direction of the partition plate 11 is consistent with the thickness direction of the smart terminal, as indicated by the arrow X in Figure 5 .
[0083] In other possible implementations, along the thickness direction of the partition plate 11, the thickness of the positioning portion 32 can also be less than the depth of the avoiding hole 13.
[0084] In a possible implementation, as shown in Figure 8 , Figure 9 and Figure 10 , the display screen 40 is provided with a shooting hole 41, and the positioning hole 33 is formed between the at least two positioning portions 32. The positioning portion 32 is used to make the center of the positioning hole 33 coincide with the center of the shooting hole 41.
[0085] In a possible implementation, as shown in Figure 4 , Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown, the support 30 further comprises a fixed frame 31, the camera 20 comprises a shell 22, the fixed frame 31 is sleeved on the outer circumferential surface of the shell 22; the first end of the positioning part 32 is connected to the side of the fixed frame 31 facing the partition plate 11, the second end of the positioning part 32 forms a circular arc surface 321, and the centers of the circular arc surfaces 321 formed by the second ends of the respective positioning parts 32 coincide.
[0086] In a possible implementation manner, the center of the circular arc surface 321 formed by the second end of each positioning part 32 coincides with the center of the positioning hole 33.
[0087] In a possible implementation manner, the shell 22 is substantially cuboid, the fixed frame 31 can be a rectangular frame, the shape of the fixed frame 31 is matched with the shape of the shell 22, the fixed frame 31 is sleeved on the outer circumferential surface of the shell 22, so as to ensure the stability of the installation of the camera 20 and the support 30. The fixed frame 31 plays a role of protecting the camera 20 and connecting the positioning parts 32.
[0088] In a possible implementation manner, the shell 22 can be a metal shell, for example, a steel shell, and the second end of the positioning part 32 is used for positioning by a Charge-coupled Device (CCD) visual positioning system, so as to ensure the concentricity of the camera 20 and the shooting hole 41 of the display screen 40. Figure 10 As shown, when the camera 20 is positioned by the CCD visual positioning system, the CCD visual positioning system can align the center of the circular arc surface 321 formed by the second end of the positioning part 32 with the center of the shooting hole 41, so that the camera 20 is better positioned, and it is ensured that the center of the camera 20 is on the same straight line as the center of the shooting hole 41. Through the matching of the center position of the circular arc surface 321 formed by the second end of each positioning part 32 and the center position of the shooting hole 41, the accurate positioning of the shooting hole 41, the camera 20 and the positioning part 32 is achieved.
[0089] In a possible implementation manner, the length of the positioning part 32 meets the CCD grabbing requirement, after the CCD grabs the support 30, the center position of the circular arc surface 321 is calculated according to the shape of the circular arc surface 321, so as to match and coincide with the center position of the shooting hole 41.
[0090] In a possible implementation manner, as shown in Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the support 30 is an integral structure. Alternatively, the fixed frame 31 and the positioning part 32 are integrally injection molded.
[0091] In a possible implementation, the fixed frame 31 can be a rectangular frame, and the number of the positioning portions 32 can be four, and the first ends of the positioning portions 32 can be connected to the four corner positions of the fixed frame 31 respectively. Of course, the first ends of the positioning portions 32 can also be connected to the four side positions of the fixed frame 31 respectively. The positioning portions 32 are connected as an integral structure through the fixed frame 31.
[0092] In a possible implementation, as shown in Figure 11 , the camera 20 further includes a circuit board 23 extending to the outside of the shell 22. The circuit board 23 can be, for example, a flexible printed circuit (FPC) structure, which is small and thin, can provide excellent electrical performance, and can quickly transmit electrical signals between the camera 20 and the control board of the smart terminal, thereby improving the signal transmission speed.
[0093] In a possible implementation, as shown in Figure 4 , Figure 10 and Figure 11 , the camera 20 includes the lens 21 connected to the shell 22 and extending into the shooting hole 41, and the second end of the positioning portion 32 has a spacing H1 (not shown in the figure) from the outer peripheral surface of the lens 21, and the outer peripheral surface of the lens 21 has a spacing H2 from the inner wall surface of the shooting hole 41, where H1>H2.
[0094] Such a structure can make the second end of the positioning portion 32 contact the lens 21 before the display screen 40 when the smart terminal falls, thereby reducing the problem of impact of the lens 21 on the display screen 40 and the problem of collision of the lens 21 with the display screen 40. The application has a more obvious effect on a front camera with an optical image stabilization and automatic focusing module, because the lens 21 has a certain amount of movement, and after the lens 21 hits the positioning portion 32 of the support 30, the lens 21 is not easily damaged.
[0095] Generally, the gap between the lens 21 of the camera 20 and the opening in the cover layer 42 of the display screen 40 is required to be ≥0.3 mm, that is, H2≥0.3 mm is required. When the gap between the lens 21 and the display screen 40 is reduced to 0.2 mm, the gap between the lens 21 and the positioning portion 32 of the support 30 is reduced to 0.15 mm. When the camera 20 moves, the lens 21 preferentially hits the positioning portion 32 of the support 30, thereby avoiding damage to the display screen 40 caused by impact, and achieving the effect of protecting the display screen 40 and the camera 20.
[0096] In a possible implementation, the fixed frame 31 and the partition plate 11 are connected through the first connecting member.
[0097] In a possible implementation, as shown in Figure 9 andFigure 10 As shown, the support 30 can be made of either plastic or metal, and the first connecting member includes but is not limited to double-sided adhesive tape, adhesive, hot melt, etc. The first connecting member achieves the relative fixation of the fixed frame 31 and the partition plate 11, preventing the support 30 from falling off or moving relative to the partition plate 11. Of course, when the fixed frame 31 is made of metal, it can also be connected to the partition plate 11 by welding.
[0098] In one possible implementation, the first connecting member can be UV (Ultraviolet Rays) glue, which achieves the bonding between the fixed frame 31 and the partition plate 11. During the bonding process, the UV glue quickly solidifies under the irradiation of the UV lamp, facilitating the relative fixation of the fixed frame 31 and the partition plate 11.
[0099] In one possible implementation, after the support 30 is assembled with the partition plate 11 of the middle frame 10, glue is applied at the gap between the support 30 and the partition plate 11, which is sealed by the glue, such as UV glue. At the same time, the two sides of the support 30 are pressed together by a transparent jig. On the one hand, it is convenient to irradiate the UV lamp to prevent scratching the glue, and on the other hand, it makes the glue application surface more flat, improving the fixing strength of the support 30.
[0100] In one possible implementation, referring to Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the positioning portion 32 is connected to the display screen 40 by a second connecting member. The second connecting member includes but is not limited to double-sided adhesive tape, adhesive, hot melt, or Mylar, which improves the stability of the fixation between the support 30 and the display screen 40.
[0101] In one possible implementation, after the support 30 is assembled, Mylar or back adhesive is applied at the corresponding position of the display screen 40 to seal it.
[0102] In one possible implementation, referring to Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the smart terminal further includes a protective sleeve 50, which is a flexible member. The protective sleeve 50 forms a protective cavity 51 inside, and the end of the shell 22 away from the lens 21 extends into the protective cavity 51.
[0103] Referring to Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the gap 61 between the back cover 60 and the middle frame 10 needs to be sealed with adhesive, and a sealing width of more than 1 mm is required between the back cover 60 and the middle frame 10. In order to improve the screen-to-body ratio, the front camera is mounted close to the top edge plate 15 of the middle frame 10. In the present application, the front camera has a relatively large volume, which causes the distance between the shell 22 and the top edge plate 15 to be small, increasing the difficulty of sealing. The protective sleeve 50 can effectively seal the gap between the back cover 60 and the middle frame 10, and solve the problem of difficulty in effective sealing in the limited space caused by the increase in the volume of the camera 20.
[0104] In a possible implementation, along the thickness direction of the intelligent terminal, the length of the end of the shell 22 away from the lens 21 extending into the protective cavity 51 is greater than 1 / 3 of the length of the shell 22. During assembly, the protective sleeve 50 is first sleeved on the camera 20, and then assembled together with the baffle 11 of the middle frame 10. For example, along the thickness direction of the intelligent terminal, the length of the end of the shell 22 away from the lens 21 extending into the protective cavity 51 is greater than 2 / 3 or 1 / 2 of the length of the shell 22.
[0105] The protective sleeve 50 plays a role in sealing, dustproofing, and protecting the camera 20, and can prevent external dust or water stains from entering the camera 20 from the gap 61 between the back cover 60 and the middle frame 10, thereby avoiding affecting the normal operation of the camera 20 and ensuring the use effect of the camera 20.
[0106] The protective sleeve 50 is made of rubber or silicone, for example, and can also play a role in buffering and damping. In particular, when the intelligent terminal falls or is hit accidentally, the camera 20 can be effectively prevented from being damaged.
[0107] In a possible implementation, referring to Figure 12 As shown, the protective sleeve 50 includes a plurality of protective plates connected to the edge of the bottom sealing plate 54, and the bottom sealing plate 54 and the plurality of protective plates enclose the protective cavity 51.
[0108] In a possible implementation, referring to Figure 4 As shown, the middle frame 10 further includes a top edge plate 15 connected to the top end of the baffle 11, the plurality of protective plates include a first protective plate 52 abutting against the top edge plate 15, and the first protective plate 52 and the top edge plate 15 are pressed against each other to achieve a sealing effect. The plurality of protective plates further include a second protective edge 53, and a first protective plate 52 and a plurality of second protective edges 53 are sequentially arranged around the protective cavity 51.
[0109] In a possible implementation, referring to Figure 13As shown, the side of the first protective plate 52 facing the top edge plate 15 is an inclined surface 521, which gradually inclines towards the camera 20 along the opening of the protective sleeve 50. That is, the first protective plate 52 is wedge-shaped, which can guide the installation of the protective sleeve 50 into the rear cavity 17, facilitating the overall assembly of the protective sleeve 50 to the partition plate 11 of the middle frame 10 after the protective sleeve 50 is sleeved to the camera 20.
[0110] In a possible implementation manner, referring to Figure 4 As shown, the fixing frame 31 of the bracket 30 is connected with the top edge plate 15 through a third connecting member, which includes but is not limited to double-sided adhesive tape, adhesive, etc., which is beneficial to reduce the shaking of the bracket 30 and the camera 20, thereby facilitating to ensure the stability and reliability of the camera 20 in operation.
[0111] In a possible implementation manner, the display screen 40 includes a cover plate layer 42, an optical adhesive layer 43, a polarizing plate layer 44 and a panel layer 45 which are sequentially stacked, and an ink layer is further arranged between the optical adhesive layer 43 and the cover plate layer 42, and the shooting hole 41 is arranged in the optical adhesive layer 43, the polarizing plate layer 44 and the panel layer 45.
[0112] The cover plate layer 42 can be a glass cover plate, the polarizing plate layer 44 is used to adjust the pixel brightness and reproduce the color, so that the display screen 40 displays bright colors. The optical adhesive layer 43 is used to bond the cover plate layer 42 and the polarizing plate layer 44. The panel layer 45 is used to connect with the middle frame 10.
[0113] In a possible implementation manner, the optical adhesive layer 43 can be an OCA optical adhesive layer, for example.
[0114] Referring to Figure 13 , Figure 14 and Figure 15 As shown, the present application further provides a smart terminal, which further includes a rear cover 60, which can also be referred to as a battery cover. The rear cover 60 is buckled at the end of the middle frame 10 away from the display screen 40, so that the rear cover 60 and the middle frame 10 form a rear cavity 17 for accommodating the bracket 30, the control board, the battery and other components. The camera 20 is electrically connected with the control board to complete the circuit and realize the functions of photographing and video shooting.
[0115] In a possible implementation manner, the outer wall of the protective sleeve 50 is matched with the shape of the side of the rear cover 60 facing the camera 20; such a structure makes the outer wall of the protective sleeve 50 have a profiling effect, realizes the sealing effect between the protective sleeve 50 and the rear cover 60 after the rear cover 60 is assembled to the middle frame 10, effectively prevents the dust, impurities or liquid in the outside from entering the inside of the smart terminal through the gap between the middle frame 10 and the rear cover 60, and improves the waterproof and dustproof effect of the smart terminal.
[0116] In a possible implementation, the inner wall of the protection cavity 51 is shaped to match the end of the shell 22 away from the lens 21. After the camera 20 and the protective sleeve 50 are assembled, the camera 20 can be sealed on the side by the protective sleeve 50, without the need to add new structural members to seal in a small space. The protective sleeve 50 can allow the end of the camera 20 away from the lens 21 to be smoothly accommodated in the protection cavity 51, and the size of the protection cavity 51 meets the size of the end of the camera 20 away from the lens 21, has the effect of profiling, and improves the protection effect.
[0117] The intelligent terminal provided in the application is shown in Figure 4 、 Figure 6 and Figure 10 , the positioning part 32 of the support 30 is fitted in the avoiding hole 13, the positioning part 32 of the support 30 shares the thickness space occupied by the partition plate 11, and the problem that the support 30 has no space for arrangement due to the increase in the volume of the shell 22 of the camera 20 is solved.
[0118] When a large-volume front camera is used in the intelligent terminal provided in the application, the space between the shell 22 of the front camera and the partition plate 11 of the middle frame 10 is reduced to difficultly accommodate two layers of wall thickness, the installation of the support 30 can be realized, the accurate positioning of the front camera is realized, and the appearance delicacy and the overall reliability are improved.
[0119] When a large-volume front camera is used in the intelligent terminal provided in the application, the front camera can compress the sealing space of the middle frame 10. By setting the protective sleeve 50, the tightness of the connection between the shell 22 of the camera 20 and the back cover 60 is improved, the gap between the shell 22 of the camera 20 and the back cover 60 is reduced, which is conducive to the light and thin of the back cover assembly and the mobile terminal. In addition, by profiling the protective sleeve 50, the sealing of the front camera can be realized, and the reliability of the overall dust and liquid resistance is improved.
[0120] By reducing the gap between the lens 21 and the shooting hole 41 in the display screen 40, the diameter of the shooting hole 41 in the display screen 40 can be reduced, and the screen ratio can be improved.
