[0017] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0018] like Figures 1 to 4As shown, the present invention discloses a rear camera breathing light ring structure, which is installed on the housing 1 of an electronic device. It includes a flexible circuit board 2, light-emitting LEDs 3, a camera light guide film 4, and a light-transmitting element 5. The flexible circuit board 2 is connected to the main board of the electronic device. Multiple light-emitting LEDs 3 are arranged on the flexible circuit board 2. The housing 1 has a rear camera hole 6. The light-transmitting element 5 is connected around the rear camera hole 6. The camera light guide film 4 is laid inside the housing 1 and extends from the light-emitting LEDs 3 to the light-transmitting element 5. The main board controls the flashing of the light-emitting LEDs 3 through the flexible circuit board 2.
[0019] This structure is assembled on the phone casing 1. It draws power from the motherboard through the flexible circuit board 2 and transmits the electrical signal to the LED light 3 on the casing, so that the LED light emits light. The light source is then conducted through the light guide film, and finally the light effect is displayed in the light-transmitting pattern on the light-transmitting part 5 or the casing 1.
[0020] The housing 1 has at least two rear camera holes 6, with a camera light guide film 4 laid between each of the two rear camera holes 6. At least one LED 3 is positioned between the two rear camera holes 6, and the light-transmitting element 5 of the rear camera hole 6 is located within the light source radiation range of the LED 3. For designs with multiple rear cameras, in order to ensure that the light source can radiate evenly onto the light-transmitting ring of each rear camera, it is preferable to position the LED 3 between two adjacent rear camera holes 6. This allows the light source of the LED 3 to radiate evenly onto the light-transmitting ring through the camera light guide film 4. For designs with only two rear cameras, a set of LEDs 3 can be arranged on each side of the two rear camera holes 6, ensuring that both sides of the light-transmitting ring are radiated by the light source. This avoids the light blind spots that exist with a single LED 3 and ensures that the light-transmitting ring ultimately presents a uniform and soft lighting effect.
[0021] The housing 1 has three rear camera holes 6 arranged in a triangular area. A camera light guide film 4 is laid within this triangular area, with the three rear camera holes 6 located at the apex of the triangle. At least one LED 3 is positioned at the center of each side of the triangle, and the triangular area is within the radiation range of multiple LEDs 3. This arrangement of the three sets of LEDs 3 ensures that each set can illuminate the light-transmitting elements 5 of two adjacent rear camera holes 6. Combined with the triangular area formed by the three rear cameras and the laid camera light guide film 4, this achieves uniform light reception for the light-transmitting elements 5 of each rear camera hole 6, resulting in a uniform and soft lighting effect.
[0022] The flexible circuit board 2 has its wiring located between and staggered from the multiple rear camera holes 6. This wiring routing structure of the flexible circuit board 2 can avoid the location of the rear cameras, reducing interference with the installation position of the rear cameras, while ensuring that the circuit board extends to the location of each rear camera to install the LED lights 3, so that the light source can radiate onto the light-transmitting element 5 of each rear camera.
[0023] The light-transmitting component 5 is a vacuum-plated circular light-transmitting component 5. Vacuum plating ensures the texture of the light-transmitting ring, while the circular structure better adapts to the structure of the rear camera, allowing the light-transmitting ring to fit around the rear camera. The light source of the luminous LED light 3 passes through the camera light guide film 4 and then through the vacuum-plated circular light-transmitting decorative component to create the effect of a light ring.
[0024] The rear camera breathing light ring structure also includes a cover plate light guide film 7, which is laid inside the housing 1 and located in the planar area 8 of the housing 1. A flexible circuit board 2 extends to one side of the cover plate light guide film 7. At least one light-emitting LED 3 is provided on the side of the flexible circuit board 2 near the cover plate light guide film 7, and the light source of the light-emitting LED 3 radiates onto the cover plate light guide film 7. Three light-emitting LEDs 3 can be arranged side by side on one side of the cover plate light guide film 7. The three light-emitting LEDs 3 are green, red, and blue, respectively, so that various colors can be combined to radiate different colored light effects to the entire cover plate light guide film 7, and then the light is transmitted and displayed through the light-transmitting area on the housing 1.
[0025] The housing 1 has a light-transmitting pattern on the plane area 8 corresponding to the light guide film 7 on the cover plate. The cover plate on the back of the housing 1 is laser-engraved to remove the paint from the cover plate on the desired pattern, forming a light-transmitting pattern and revealing the lines of the pattern.
[0026] This invention utilizes personalized full-color luminous effects on mobile phone back cover decorative parts and various color prompts corresponding to different information controlled by the mobile phone UI, achieving uniform light guidance and full-color display of luminous colors. Through the various colors of light transmission and breathing strobe of the mobile phone exterior parts, combined with the UI interaction settings of corresponding mobile applications such as incoming calls, text messages, or specific apps, different colors and brightness frequencies of light can be emitted and flashed through the corresponding light-transmitting decorative parts when the phone screen is off, achieving information transmission or functional feedback through human-computer interaction UI, or displaying specific mood themes.
[0027] The above description, in conjunction with specific preferred embodiments, provides a further detailed explanation of the present invention. It should not be construed that the specific implementation of the present invention is limited to these descriptions. For those skilled in the art, various simple deductions or substitutions can be made without departing from the concept of the present invention, and all such modifications and substitutions should be considered within the protection scope of the present invention.
