Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of electronic equipment technology, and in particular to an electronic device. Background Technology

[0002] Electronic devices generally include mobile phones, tablets, computers, monitors, or in-vehicle computers. Physical buttons, as an important component of electronic devices, allow users to operate them conveniently. By pressing buttons, users can control the power on / off of the device, adjust the volume, or perform functions such as taking photos, adjusting brightness, or fingerprint recognition. The button-pressing experience directly affects the user's experience of using the electronic device.

[0003] However, the buttons on electronic devices mentioned above may wobble when pressed, affecting the user's experience of using the electronic device. Utility Model Content

[0004] This application provides an electronic device that solves the technical problem in the above-mentioned related technologies where buttons on electronic devices shake during pressing, affecting the user's experience of using the electronic device.

[0005] This application provides an electronic device, comprising: a body having a mounting hole; a button having an abutting portion disposed within the mounting hole, wherein a gap exists between the outer side wall of the abutting portion and the inner side wall of the mounting hole; and an elastic member disposed within the gap, such that the abutting portion abuts against the inner side wall of the mounting hole via the elastic member.

[0006] This application provides an electronic device in which an elastic element is provided between a mounting hole and a button abutting part. The elastic element fills the gap between the abutting part and the inner wall of the mounting hole. When the user presses the button, the elastic element can absorb part of the pressing force through elastic deformation and restore the button to its initial position through its elastic restoring force. This reduces the shaking of the button during the pressing process, improves the stability of the button and the user experience.

[0007] Based on the above scheme, this application also has the following improvements.

[0008] In one possible implementation, the elastic element is disposed in at least a portion of the outer peripheral surface of the abutment, and the surface of the elastic element facing away from the abutment contacts the inner sidewall of the mounting hole.

[0009] In this way, by setting the elastic element on at least a portion of the outer peripheral surface of the abutment, it is possible to ensure that the elastic element can be accurately positioned during installation, reduce the probability of the elastic element moving relative to the inner wall of the abutment and mounting hole, improve the stability of the elastic element in use, facilitate the maintenance and installation of the elastic element, and improve the assembly efficiency of electronic equipment.

[0010] By placing the elastic element in the abutment portion and making the surface of the elastic element facing away from the abutment portion contact the inner wall of the mounting hole, more even support and cushioning can be provided when the button is pressed, reducing button wobble.

[0011] In one possible implementation, the elastic element is an annular element, which is sleeved on the outer periphery of the abutment portion, and the surface of the annular element facing away from the abutment portion contacts the inner wall of the mounting hole.

[0012] In this way, by setting the elastic element as a ring and fitting it on the outer periphery of the abutment part, the elastic element can contact the inner peripheral wall of the mounting hole 360 ​​degrees, thereby providing 360-degree all-round elastic support for the button when it is pressed. This improves the uniformity of the elastic element's support for the button, ensures the stability of the button during the pressing process, further reduces the amplitude of button wobble, and improves the user's experience of using electronic devices.

[0013] In one possible implementation, the annular component has a first segment and a second segment connected end to end, the width of the first segment being smaller than the width of the second segment.

[0014] In this way, when the ring is installed on the abutment, it will fit tightly against the surface of the abutment under the action of elastic force, which can improve the connection stability between the elastic element and the abutment. By setting the ring as a first segment and a second segment connected end to end, and limiting the width of the first segment to be smaller than the width of the second segment, the elastic force of the ring in the first segment can be smaller than that in the second segment, so that the ring can be stretched. This allows the ring to be installed on the abutment of the button by stretching the ring, thereby improving the assembly efficiency between the ring and the button.

[0015] In one possible implementation, the outer wall of the abutment portion is provided with a mounting groove, the opening of the mounting groove facing the inner wall of the mounting hole; the elastic element is disposed within the mounting groove.

[0016] In this way, by setting a mounting groove on the abutment part and placing the elastic element in the mounting groove, it is easy to install and position the elastic element on the abutment part of the button, which can fix and limit the elastic element, reduce the probability of the elastic element moving relative to the abutment part, improve the installation stability of the elastic element on the button, and further reduce the probability of the button shaking, thereby further improving the user's experience of using electronic devices.

[0017] In one possible implementation, the abutting portion has an annular groove adapted to the annular member, the annular groove being disposed circumferentially on the outer side wall of the abutting portion; the annular member is fitted into the annular groove.

[0018] In this way, by setting an annular groove on the abutment portion that matches the annular component and placing the annular component in the annular groove, the installation stability of the annular component on the abutment portion of the button can be improved, and relative sliding between the annular component and the abutment portion of the button can be avoided during button pressing.

[0019] Furthermore, an annular groove is provided on the abutting part of the button, which enables the installation and positioning of the annular part on the abutting part, making it easier to install the annular part onto the button.

[0020] In one possible implementation, the thickness of the elastic element is greater than the width of the gap; the elastic element has a first surface and a second surface disposed opposite to each other, the first surface abutting against the outer wall of the abutting portion, and the second surface of the elastic element abutting against the inner wall of the mounting hole.

[0021] In this way, by making the thickness of the elastic element greater than the width of the gap, the elastic element is interference-fitted with the gap in the width direction of the gap. This allows the elastic element to completely fill the gap in the width direction of the gap through elastic deformation, so that the abutting part of the button directly abuts against the inner wall of the mounting hole through the elastic element. This further reduces the probability of the button shaking and further improves the user's experience of using electronic devices.

[0022] In one possible implementation, the difference between the thickness of the elastic element and the width of the gap is greater than 0 mm and less than or equal to 0.1 mm.

[0023] In this way, by ensuring that the difference between the thickness of the elastic element and the width of the gap is greater than 0 mm and less than or equal to 0.1 mm, it is possible to avoid the elastic element being unable to completely fill the gap due to its insufficient thickness, and further, to prevent the button from wobbling during pressing due to the elastic element not being able to completely fill the gap. It also avoids the problem of the elastic element being too thick, for example, greater than 0.1 mm, making it difficult to install the button and elastic element into the mounting hole, and preventing the button from being difficult to press after being installed in the mounting hole, thus reducing the assembly difficulty of the button and elastic element.

[0024] In one possible implementation, the elastic element is a rubber element or a silicone element.

[0025] In this way, since rubber and silicone parts have good elastic deformation capabilities, as well as good wear resistance and corrosion resistance, it is possible to improve the service life of elastic parts while ensuring their elasticity, reduce the maintenance and replacement costs of elastic parts, and reduce the manufacturing and maintenance costs of electronic equipment.

[0026] In one possible implementation, the button further includes a pressing portion; the pressing portion is connected to one end of the abutting portion facing the outside of the mounting hole, and a portion of the pressing portion is disposed within the mounting hole.

[0027] In this way, the button includes a pressing part and connects the pressing part to the abutting part. The pressing part is located outside the mounting hole, which makes it easy for the user to move the abutting part and the elastic element by pressing the pressing part, thereby improving the ease of use of the button and the ease of use of the electronic device.

[0028] Furthermore, the button is connected to the abutting part by setting a pressing part, and the pressing part is set inside the mounting hole, so that the pressing part can provide better support for the button during the pressing process.

[0029] In one possible implementation, the width of the gap is greater than or equal to 0.05 mm.

[0030] In this way, by ensuring that the gap width is greater than or equal to 0.05mm, it is possible to ensure that the elastic element effectively fills the gap, and that the elastic element is not too tight during installation, which would make the button difficult to press, nor too loose, which would result in poor support. This allows the elastic element to provide more stable and reliable support for the button.

[0031] In one possible implementation, the fuselage includes a mid-frame on which the mounting holes are provided.

[0032] In this way, the device body includes a mid-frame with mounting holes on it. When the buttons and elastic elements are placed within the mounting holes, from the perspective of the device body, the buttons can be located on the side of the device body. Therefore, by placing the buttons on the side of the device body, it is easier for users to press the buttons, reducing the space occupied by the buttons on the device body and improving the user experience of the electronic device.

[0041] This application provides an electronic device, which includes, but is not limited to, mobile phones (e.g., candybar phones or foldable phones), tablet computers, laptops, ultra-mobile personal computers (UMPCs), handheld computers, walkie-talkies, internet TVs, televisions, in-vehicle devices, netbooks, POS machines, personal digital assistants (PDAs), wearable devices (e.g., smartwatches, smart wristbands, virtual reality devices, and other mobile or fixed terminals with display devices).

[0042] In this embodiment of the application, a mobile phone is used as an example of the above-mentioned electronic device. The mobile phone can at least access the Internet, browse web pages, play multimedia, and also conduct remote network video communication and calls with other users through the camera device in the IPTV.

[0043] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of an electronic device provided in an embodiment of this application.

[0044] refer to Figure 1The electronic device may include a body 100 and buttons 200. The buttons 200 are physical buttons that allow users to operate the electronic device. For example, the buttons 200 can be used to control the electronic device to turn it on or off, adjust the volume, and take photos. Therefore, the user experience of the buttons 200 directly affects the user's overall experience of the electronic device. The body 100 may include a screen assembly 130 and a mid-frame 120. The screen assembly 130 is located within the mid-frame 120, which is positioned at the outer edge of the screen assembly 130. The mid-frame 120 supports the screen assembly 130, reducing the likelihood of deformation or breakage and thus extending the lifespan of the electronic device.

[0045] In some embodiments, the mounting hole 110 can be formed on the mid-frame 120 of the body 100, so that the button 200 can be disposed on the mid-frame 120 of the body 100 and located on the side of the body 100. By disposing of the button 200 on the side of the body 100, the button 200 can be avoided from occupying space on the screen assembly 130, thereby improving the space utilization and aesthetics of the screen assembly 130. Furthermore, by mounting the button 200 on the side of the body 100, it is easier for the user to operate the button 200, thus improving the user's experience of using the electronic device.

[0046] However, in related technologies, the button 200 on electronic devices may wobble during pressing, affecting the user's experience of using the electronic device.

[0047] refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The main reason for this problem is that, in the relevant technology, there is a gap 140 between the outer periphery of some buttons 200 located in the mounting hole 110 and the inner wall of the mounting hole 110. When the buttons 200 move in the mounting hole 110, the gap 140 causes the buttons 200 to wobble, thereby affecting the user's experience of using the electronic device.

[0048] refer to Figure 3 To address the aforementioned technical problems, this application provides an electronic device. By providing an elastic element 300 between the mounting hole 110 and the abutting portion 210 of the button 200, the elastic element 300 fills the gap 140 between the abutting portion 210 and the inner wall of the mounting hole 110. When the user presses the button 200, the elastic element 300 can absorb part of the pressing force through elastic deformation and restore the button 200 to its initial position through its elastic restoring force. This reduces the shaking of the button 200 during the pressing process, improves the stability of the button 200, and enhances the user experience.

[0049] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of the embodiments of this application more apparent and understandable, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are merely some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0050] refer to Figures 1 to 4 This application provides an electronic device, which may include a body 100, buttons 200 and elastic elements 300.

[0051] The body 100 has a mounting hole 110. The button 200 has an abutting portion 210, which is disposed within the mounting hole 110. A gap 140 exists between the outer side wall of the abutting portion 210 and the inner side wall of the mounting hole 110. An elastic member 300 is disposed within the gap 140 so that the abutting portion 210 abuts against the inner side wall of the mounting hole 110 through the elastic member 300.

[0052] refer to Figure 1 In some embodiments, the body 100 may include a middle frame 120, on which mounting holes 110 are provided.

[0053] The body 100 may also include a screen assembly 130, with a mid-frame 120 disposed on the outer edge of the screen assembly 130. The mid-frame 120 can be used to fix the screen assembly 130, reducing the probability of the screen assembly 130 breaking or deforming, increasing the strength of the body 100, and thus improving the strength of the electronic device. If the mid-frame 120 has a mounting hole 110, the mounting hole 110 is located on the side of the body 100, and the button 200 can be installed in the mounting hole 110 on the side of the body 100.

[0054] Thus, the body 100 can include a mid-frame 120, with mounting holes 110 formed on the mid-frame 120. When the button 200 and the elastic element 300 are disposed within the mounting holes 110, from the perspective of the body 100, the button 200 can be located on the side of the body 100. Therefore, by placing the button 200 on the side of the body 100, it is easier for the user to press the button 200, reducing the space occupied by the button 200 on the body 100 and improving the user's experience with the electronic device.

[0055] refer to Figure 4 In some embodiments, the elastic element 300 can fill the gap 140, the elastic element 300 can be disposed on the abutting portion 210 of the button 200, the elastic element 300 can be assembled with the button 200 first, and then the combined structure of the button 200 and the elastic element 300 is installed in the mounting hole 110.

[0056] By placing the elastic element 300 on the abutting portion 210 of the button 200, when the button 200 moves relative to the mounting hole 110, the elastic element 300 can move along with the button 200 relative to the inner wall of the mounting hole 110. At this time, relative sliding occurs between the elastic element 300 and the inner wall of the mounting hole 110, which improves the installation stability of the elastic element 300 and reduces the probability of relative sliding between the elastic element 300 and the button 200. The sliding frictional resistance between the elastic element 300 and the mounting hole 110 should not be too large, thus avoiding the problem of the button 200 and the elastic element 300 being unable to move within the mounting hole 110.

[0057] refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 In practice, the elastic element 300 can be bonded to the outer wall of the abutment portion 210 by adhesive, which can improve the connection stability between the elastic element 300 and the button 200, and simplify the assembly process of the elastic element 300 and the button 200, thereby improving the assembly efficiency of the electronic device.

[0058] In another example, by providing a positioning groove on the outer side wall of the abutment portion 210, the elastic member 300 is fixed in the positioning groove on the outer side wall of the abutment portion 210, thereby reducing the probability of relative sliding of the elastic member 300 and improving the installation stability of the elastic member 300.

[0059] In other embodiments, the elastic member 300 can also be disposed on the inner sidewall of the mounting hole 110, so that the surface of the elastic member 300 facing away from the inner sidewall of the mounting hole 110 contacts the outer sidewall of the abutment portion 210. When the button 200 moves within the mounting hole 110, the abutment portion 210 can move relative to the mounting hole 110 and the elastic member 300. The elastic member 300 can also be directly injection molded onto the abutment portion 210 of the button 200, which can reduce the assembly time of the button 200 and the elastic member 300, thereby improving the assembly efficiency of the electronic device.

[0060] In some other embodiments, the elastic element 300 can be glued to the inner wall of the mounting hole 110, or the elastic element 300 can be fixed in the positioning groove on the inner wall of the mounting hole 110 by providing a positioning groove, thereby reducing the probability of relative sliding of the elastic element 300 and improving the installation stability of the elastic element 300.

[0061] This application provides an electronic device in which an elastic element 300 is provided between a mounting hole 110 and a contact portion 210 of a button 200. The elastic element 300 fills the gap 140 between the contact portion 210 and the inner wall of the mounting hole 110. When the user presses the button 200, the elastic element 300 can absorb part of the pressing force through elastic deformation and restore the button 200 to its initial position through its elastic restoring force. This reduces the shaking of the button 200 during the pressing process, improves the stability of the button 200 and the user experience.

[0062] In some embodiments, the abutting portion 210 of the button 200 can be a cylinder, and the elastic element 300 can be disposed on the outer side wall of the cylinder. There can be multiple elastic elements 300, and the multiple elastic elements 300 can be arranged at intervals along the circumference of the cylinder.

[0063] In other embodiments, the abutting portion 210 of the button 200 may also be a cuboid, and the abutting portion 210 may have four side walls. If there are multiple elastic elements 300, at least one elastic element 300 may be provided on each side wall, or one or more elastic elements 300 may be provided on one or two side walls.

[0064] refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 In some embodiments, the elastic member 300 is disposed on at least a portion of the outer peripheral surface of the abutment portion 210, and the surface of the elastic member 300 facing away from the abutment portion 210 contacts the inner sidewall of the mounting hole 110.

[0065] It is understandable that the elastic element 300 may be provided only in a portion of the outer peripheral surface of the abutment portion 210. For example, if the outer peripheral surface of the abutment portion 210 includes multiple side surfaces connected end to end in the circumferential direction, the elastic element 300 may be provided on one or more of these side surfaces. Furthermore, the elastic element 300 may also be provided in a portion of one of these side surfaces.

[0066] In other embodiments, the elastic element 300 may be disposed on the entire outer sidewall of the abutment portion 210, thereby increasing the contact area between the abutment portion 210 and the inner sidewall of the mounting hole 110 through the elastic element 300.

[0067] In some other embodiments, the elastic element 300 may be multiple, and the multiple elastic elements 300 are arranged circumferentially at intervals along the outer side wall of the abutment portion 210, which can reduce the usable area of ​​the elastic element 300 and reduce the use cost of the elastic element 300 and the electronic device.

[0068] In this way, by setting the elastic element 300 on at least a portion of the outer peripheral surface of the abutment portion 210, it is possible to ensure that the elastic element 300 can be accurately positioned during installation, reduce the probability of the elastic element 300 moving relative to the inner sidewall of the abutment portion 210 and the mounting hole 110, improve the stability of the elastic element 300 in use, facilitate the maintenance and installation of the elastic element 300, and improve the assembly efficiency of electronic equipment.

[0069] By placing the elastic element 300 on the abutment portion 210 and making the surface of the elastic element 300 facing away from the abutment portion 210 contact the inner wall of the mounting hole 110, more uniform support and cushioning can be provided when the button 200 is pressed, reducing the shaking of the button 200.

[0070] refer to Figure 4 In some embodiments, the elastic member 300 can be an annular member 310, which is sleeved on the outer periphery of the abutment portion 210, and the surface of the annular member 310 facing away from the abutment portion 210 contacts the inner wall of the mounting hole 110.

[0071] In some embodiments, in the axial direction of the mounting hole 110, the annular member 310 can completely cover the outer wall of the abutment portion 210, which can increase the contact area between the annular member 310 and the abutment portion 210 and improve the connection stability between the annular member 310 and the abutment portion 210.

[0072] In other embodiments, the annular member 310 can cover part of the outer wall of the abutment portion 210, thereby ensuring the connection stability between the annular member 310 and the abutment portion 210.

[0073] In this way, by setting the elastic element 300 as an annular element 310 and sleeved on the outer periphery of the abutment portion 210, the elastic element 300 can contact the inner peripheral wall of the mounting hole 110 in a 360-degree direction, thereby providing 360-degree all-round elastic support for the button 200 when it is pressed. This improves the uniformity of the support provided by the elastic element 300 to the button 200, ensures the stability of the button 200 during the pressing process, further reduces the amplitude of button 200 shaking, and improves the user's experience of using the electronic device.

[0074] refer to Figure 4 In some embodiments, the annular member 310 has a first segment 311 and a second segment 312 connected end to end, wherein the width of the first segment 311 is smaller than the width of the second segment 312.

[0075] In this way, when the annular member 310 is installed on the abutting part 210, it will be tightly attached to the surface of the abutting part 210 under the action of elastic force. This can improve the connection stability between the elastic member 300 and the abutting part 210. By setting the annular member 310 as a first segment 311 and a second segment 312 connected end to end, and limiting the width of the first segment 311 to be smaller than the width of the second segment 312, the elastic force of the annular member 310 in the first segment 311 is smaller than the elastic force of the second segment 312, so that the annular member 310 can be stretched. This allows the annular member 310 to be installed on the abutting part 210 of the button 200 by stretching the annular member 310, thereby improving the assembly efficiency between the annular member 310 and the button 200.

[0076] In some embodiments, the first segment 311 and the second segment 312 of the annular member 310 can be a one-piece molded structure, which can reduce the manufacturing process of the annular member 310 and increase the connection stability between the first segment 311 and the second segment 312. In some examples, the annular member 310 can be prepared by a one-piece injection molding process.

[0077] In some embodiments, if the elastic member 300 includes two first segments 311 and two second segments 312, the ends of the two second segments 312 that are close to each other are connected by one of the first segments 311, and the other ends of the two second segments 312 that are close to each other are connected by the other first segment 311 to form a ring member 310.

[0078] refer to Figure 4 and Figure 6 In some embodiments, the outer side wall of the abutment portion 210 is provided with a mounting groove 211, the opening of the mounting groove 211 faces the inner side wall of the mounting hole 110, and the elastic member 300 is disposed in the mounting groove 211.

[0079] In this way, by providing a mounting groove 211 on the abutment portion 210 and placing the elastic member 300 in the mounting groove 211, it is convenient to install and position the elastic member 300 on the abutment portion 210 of the button 200. This allows the elastic member 300 to be fixed and limited, reducing the probability of the elastic member 300 moving relative to the abutment portion 210, improving the installation stability of the elastic member 300 on the button 200, and further reducing the probability of the button 200 shaking, thereby further improving the user's experience with the electronic device.

[0080] In some embodiments, if there are multiple elastic members 300 and the multiple elastic members 300 are arranged at intervals on the outer side wall of the abutment portion 210, then there may be multiple mounting grooves 211. The mounting grooves 211 and the elastic members 300 can be arranged in a one-to-one correspondence. The multiple mounting grooves 211 are arranged at intervals on the outer side wall of the abutment portion 210, and each mounting groove 211 can be provided with one elastic member 300.

[0081] In some embodiments, if the elastic member 300 is an annular member 310, and the annular member 310 includes two first segments 311 and two second segments 312, the width of each first segment 311 is smaller than the width of the second segment 312. There may be two mounting slots 211, each corresponding to one of the two first segments 311 in the annular member 310, so that the annular member 310 can be limited and fixed by the two mounting slots 211, preventing relative sliding between the annular member 310 and the contact portion 210 of the button 200, and improving the connection stability between the elastic member 300 and the button 200.

[0082] refer to Figure 4 In some embodiments, if the elastic member 300 is an annular member 310, the abutting portion 210 has an annular groove adapted to the annular member 310. The annular groove is disposed along the circumference of the abutting portion 210 on the outer side wall of the abutting portion 210, and the annular member 310 is sleeved in the annular groove.

[0083] In this way, by providing an annular groove on the abutment portion 210 that is compatible with the annular member 310, and placing the annular member 310 in the annular groove, the installation stability of the annular member 310 on the abutment portion 210 of the button 200 can be improved, and relative sliding between the annular member 310 and the abutment portion 210 of the button 200 can be avoided during the pressing of the button 200.

[0084] Furthermore, an annular groove is provided on the abutting part 210 of the button 200, which enables the annular part 310 to be installed and positioned on the abutting part 210, making it easier to install the annular part 310 on the button 200.

[0085] In some embodiments, if the annular member 310 includes a first segment 311 and a second segment 312 with different widths, the annular groove may also have a first portion and a second portion adapted to the first segment 311 and the second segment 312, with the first segment 311 disposed in the first portion and the second segment 312 disposed in the second portion, so as to improve the adaptability of the annular member 310 to the annular groove.

[0086] refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the thickness of the elastic element 300 (e.g.) Figure 4 The width of H1 is greater than the gap width of 140 (e.g.) Figure 3 In the middle (H2), the elastic member 300 has a first surface and a second surface that are arranged opposite to each other. The first surface abuts against the outer side wall of the abutment portion 210, and the second surface of the elastic member 300 abuts against the inner side wall of the mounting hole 110.

[0087] In this way, by making the thickness of the elastic element 300 greater than the width of the gap 140, and by interfering with the gap 140 in the width direction of the gap, the elastic element 300 can completely fill the gap 140 in the width direction of the gap through elastic deformation. This allows the abutting part 210 of the button 200 to directly abut against the inner wall of the mounting hole 110 through the elastic element 300, thereby further reducing the probability of the button 200 shaking and further improving the user's experience of using the electronic device.

[0088] It is understandable that, since the elastic element 300 can undergo a certain degree of elastic deformation, when the thickness of the elastic element 300 is greater than the width of the gap 140, the elastic element 300 will undergo a certain degree of elastic deformation when installed in the gap 140, and the first surface of the elastic element 300 abuts against the outer side wall of the abutting part 210, and the second surface of the elastic element 300 abuts against the inner side wall of the mounting hole 110.

[0089] Furthermore, since the elastic element 300 can undergo elastic deformation, during the movement of the button 200, the elastic element 300 can also move a certain distance along the axial direction of the mounting hole 110 with the abutment part 210 on the button 200 through elastic deformation, so as to reduce the resistance of the elastic element 300 to the button 200 during the pressing process.

[0090] refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the thickness of the elastic element 300 (e.g.) Figure 4 The width of H1 and the gap 140 (e.g.) Figure 3 The difference between H2 and H2 is greater than 0 mm and less than or equal to 0.1 mm.

[0091] In some examples, the difference between the thickness H1 of the elastic element 300 and the width H2 of the gap 140 can be one of 0.02 mm, 0.04 mm, 0.06 mm, 0.07 mm, 0.08 mm, and 0.09 mm. Alternatively, the difference between the thickness H1 of the elastic element 300 and the width H2 of the gap 140 can be any value within the range of 0 mm and less than or equal to 0.1 mm.

[0092] In this way, by ensuring that the difference between the thickness of the elastic element 300 and the width of the gap 140 is greater than 0 mm and less than or equal to 0.1 mm, it is possible to avoid the elastic element 300 failing to completely fill the gap 140 due to its insufficient thickness, and further, to avoid the problem of the button 200 wobbling during pressing due to the elastic element 300 failing to completely fill the gap 140. It also avoids the problem of the button 200 and elastic element 300 being difficult to install into the mounting hole 110 due to the elastic element 300 being too thick, for example, greater than 0.1 mm, and the problem of the button 200 being difficult to press after being installed in the mounting hole 110, thus reducing the assembly difficulty of the button 200 and elastic element 300.

[0093] refer to Figure 3 In some embodiments, the width of the gap 140 is greater than or equal to 0.05 mm.

[0094] In the actual implementation, the width of the gap 140 (e.g.) Figure 3 The thickness of H2 can be one of 0.07mm, 0.08mm, 0.09mm and 0.10mm.

[0095] In this way, by making the width of the gap 140 greater than or equal to 0.05mm, it can be ensured that the elastic element 300 effectively fills the gap 140, and that the elastic element 300 will not be too tight during installation, making the button 200 difficult to press, nor too loose, resulting in poor support. Thus, the elastic element 300 provides more stable and reliable support for the button 200.

[0096] In an exemplary embodiment, if the width H2 of the gap 140 is 0.05 mm, and the difference between the thickness H1 of the elastic member 300 and the width H2 of the gap 140 can be specifically 0.02 mm, then the thickness H1 of the elastic member 300 can be 0.07 mm.

[0097] refer to Figure 4 In some embodiments, the elastic element 300 is a rubber element or a silicone element.

[0098] In some embodiments, if the elastic element 300 is an annular element 310, the elastic element 300 may be an annular rubber element or an annular silicone element.

[0099] In this way, since rubber and silicone parts have good elastic deformation capabilities, as well as good wear resistance and corrosion resistance, the service life of elastic part 300 can be increased while ensuring its elasticity, reducing the maintenance and replacement costs of elastic part 300, and also reducing the manufacturing and maintenance costs of electronic equipment.

[0100] In practical implementation, if the elastic element 300 is a rubber element, the rubber element can be bonded to the outer side wall of the abutting part 210 of the button 200 by adhesive bonding. This can improve the assembly speed of the elastic element 300 and the button 200 and reduce the manufacturing cost of electronic devices.

[0101] In other embodiments, the rubber component can also be injection molded to the outer wall of the button 200, which can improve the connection stability between the rubber component and the button 200, simplify the assembly steps between the button 200 and the elastic component 300, and improve the assembly efficiency of the electronic device.

[0102] refer to Figure 4 and Figure 6 In some embodiments, the button 200 may further include a pressing portion 220, which is connected to one end of the abutting portion 210 facing the outside of the mounting hole 110, and a portion of the pressing portion 220 is disposed inside the mounting hole 110.

[0103] In this way, the button 200 can include a pressing part 220 and connect the pressing part 220 to the abutting part 210. Part of the pressing part 220 is located outside the mounting hole 110, which makes it easier for the user to move the abutting part 210 and the elastic member 300 by pressing the pressing part 220, thereby improving the ease of use of the button 200 and the ease of use of the electronic device.

[0104] Furthermore, the button 200 is connected to the abutting part 210 by setting a pressing part 220, and a portion of the pressing part 220 is disposed in the mounting hole 110, thereby providing better support for the button 200 during the pressing process through the pressing part 220.
