The detailed description and drawings of the following examples are used to exemplarily illustrate the principles of the present disclosure, but cannot be used to limit the scope of the present disclosure, and the present disclosure can be implemented in many different forms, and is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed herein, but includes all technical solutions falling within the scope of the claims.
[0029] The present disclosure provides these embodiments in order to make the present disclosure thorough and complete, and fully express the scope of the present disclosure to those skilled in the art. It should be noted that: unless otherwise specifically stated, the relative arrangement of components and steps, the composition of materials, numerical expressions and values set forth in these embodiments should be interpreted as merely exemplary, and not as a limitation.
[0030] It should be noted that in the description of the present disclosure, unless otherwise specified, the meaning of "a plurality of" is greater than or equal to two; The orientation or positional relationship indicated by the terms "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "inner", "outer" and the like is only for the purpose of facilitating the description of the present disclosure and simplifying the description, and does not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a particular orientation, be constructed and operated in a particular orientation, therefore it cannot be understood as a limitation to the present disclosure. When the absolute position of the described object changes, the relative positional relationship may also change accordingly.
[0031] In addition, "first", "second", and similar words used in the present disclosure do not indicate any order, number or importance, but are only used to distinguish different parts. "Vertical" is not strictly vertical, but within the allowable range of error. "Parallel" is not strictly parallel, but within the allowable range of error. "Include" or "contain" and similar words mean that the elements before the word cover the elements listed after the word, and do not exclude the possibility of also covering other elements.
[0032] It should also be noted that in the description of the present disclosure, unless otherwise specified and limited, the terms "mounting", "connecting", "connecting" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be fixedly connected, or it can be detachably connected, or integrally connected; It can be directly connected, or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium. For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the present disclosure can be understood according to the specific circumstances. When it is described that a specific device is located between a first device and a second device, there can be an intermediate device between the specific device and the first device or the second device, or there can be no intermediate device.
[0033] All terms used in the present disclosure have the same meaning as understood by those skilled in the art to which the present disclosure belongs, unless otherwise specifically defined. It should also be understood that terms defined in general dictionaries should be interpreted to have meanings consistent with their meanings in the context of the relevant art, and should not be interpreted in an idealized or excessively formalized sense, unless specifically defined here.
[0034] Techniques, methods and equipment known to those skilled in the relevant art may not be discussed in detail, but where appropriate, the techniques, methods and equipment should be considered as part of the specification.
[0035] The electronic device is provided with a key (such as a power-on key, a volume key, a photographing key, etc.), and in the case that the pressing surface of the key is pressed by a pressing force, the corresponding operation of the electronic device can be triggered.
[0036] In the related art, a rubber column is arranged on the side of the key away from the pressing surface. The rubber column is elastically compressed under the pressing force and returns to the original state after the pressing force is removed to drive the key to reset. However, after being used for a period of time, the local elasticity of the rubber column is insufficient, resulting in the phenomenon that the key is not smooth during pressing and resetting.
[0037] The inventor of the present application finds that rubber has a highly nonlinear stress-strain relationship, which easily causes the phenomenon of unstable pressing and resetting. Therefore, a key can be arranged. The key can be deformed under the pressing force to trigger the corresponding operation of the electronic device, and can return to the original state after the pressing force is removed. The deformed part of the key is an elastic arm. The elastic arm can be bent and deformed and can return to the original state. The stress and strain of the elastic arm are proportional to each other, so that the deformation process (such as pressing and resetting) is more stable. In addition, although the rubber column has good elasticity, it is easily affected by environmental factors such as temperature, humidity, and ultraviolet light, which causes the rubber column to easily age, harden, or become brittle, resulting in the problem of insufficient local elasticity. The elastic arm 321 with smaller flexibility than the rubber column has good elasticity and fatigue resistance, and can maintain its elasticity for a long time without being easily deformed or broken, thereby avoiding the problem of insufficient local elasticity.
[0038] The present disclosure provides an electronic device 100, referring to Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the electronic device 100 can include a housing 10, a stopper 20, and a key 30. The housing 10 has a first inner surface 11, a first outer surface 12, and a second inner surface 13. The first outer surface 12 and the first inner surface 11 are opposite to each other. The second inner surface 13 and the first inner surface 11 have an included angle therebetween. The housing 10 is provided with a key hole communicating the first inner surface 11 and the first outer surface 12. The stopper 20 is arranged on the second inner surface 13 and opposite to the first inner surface 11. The key 30 can include a body part 31 and a reset part 32. The body part 31 is fitted in the key hole. The reset part 32 is located between the first inner surface 11 and the stopper 20, connected with the body part 31, and abuts against the first inner surface 11 and the stopper 20, respectively. The part of the reset part 32 abutting against the first inner surface 11 and the part of the reset part 32 abutting against the stopper 20 are connected by an elastic arm 321. In the case that the body part 31 is subjected to a target force to push the reset part 32, the elastic arm 321 is bent and deformed to make the key 30 trigger the target operation.
[0039] The electronic device 100 can be a non-foldable mobile phone, a foldable mobile phone, a notebook computer, a tablet computer, or the like.
[0040] The shell 10 forms the external protection structure of the electronic device 100 to protect the electronic devices, non-electronic devices, etc. inside the electronic device 100. The shell 10 can be formed by enclosing a plurality of plate bodies to form a structure with a receiving cavity. The included angle between the two plate bodies connected to each other can be an acute angle, a right angle, or an obtuse angle. The first inner surface 11 and the first outer surface 12 can be the inner and outer surfaces of a plate body (which can be referred to as a first plate body), respectively. The second inner surface 13 can be the surface of the receiving cavity corresponding to another plate body (which can be referred to as a second plate body) that is directly connected or not directly connected to the first plate body, and the second plate body is not parallel to the first plate body. For example, example one: the shell 10 is enclosed by six plate bodies to form a cuboid contour with a receiving cavity inside. The six plate bodies include a first plate body and a second plate body connected perpendicular to each other. The first plate body and the second plate body are directly connected. The surface of the first plate body corresponding to the receiving cavity is the first inner surface 11. The surface of the first plate body away from the receiving cavity is the first outer surface 12. The surface of the second plate body corresponding to the receiving cavity is the second inner surface 13. Example two: compared with example one, on the basis of the six plate bodies enclosing the shell 10, four plate bodies connected in sequence and end to end, the adjacent two plate bodies are connected by a connecting plate to form a chamfer structure between the adjacent two plate bodies. The adjacent two plate bodies can be the first plate body and the second plate body, respectively, and the first plate body and the second plate body are not directly connected. The surface of the first plate body corresponding to the receiving cavity is the first inner surface 11. The surface of the first plate body away from the receiving cavity is the first outer surface 12. The surface of the second plate body corresponding to the receiving cavity is the second inner surface 13. The openings of the key hole provided on the shell 10 correspond to the first inner surface 11 and the first outer surface 12, respectively. The key 30 can be provided in the key hole to partially locate in the receiving cavity on the first inner surface 11 side and partially exposed from the first outer surface 12.
[0041] The stopper 20 can be fixed on the second inner surface 13 by adhesive bonding, screw locking, etc. to be located in the shell 10. The position of the stopper 20 is opposite to the first inner surface 11, and a mounting space can be reserved between the stopper 20 and the first inner surface 11. The number of stoppers 20 can be one or more. The arrangement direction of the plurality of stoppers 20 can be parallel to the extension direction of the first inner surface 11.
[0042] The key 30 can include a body part 31 and a reset part 32. The body part 31 can be arranged in the key hole to be fitted in the key hole. The reset part 32 is connected with the body part 31 and located in the fitting space between the first inner surface 11 and the stop piece 20, and respectively abuts against the first inner surface 11 and the stop piece 20, so that the key 30 is fixed relative to the shell 10. In the case that the body part 31 is subjected to a target force to push the reset part 32, the elastic arm 321 can be bent and deformed, so that the key 30 can trigger a target operation such as starting, shutting down, increasing volume, decreasing volume, taking a photo, etc. The profile of the body part 31 can be consistent with the profile of the key hole, so that the body part 31 can abut against the inner wall of the key hole in the case that the body part 31 is arranged in the key hole. The elastic arm 321 of the key 30 can be a structure of steel sheet, plastic piece or the like material, which is different from rubber, silicone or the like material with large flexibility, so as to be able to provide a more stable deformation process.
[0043] In an example, the electronic device 100 is a notebook computer. The notebook computer 100 includes a system part and a display part. One end of the display part is rotationally connected with one end of the system part, so that the display part can be folded on the system part, or has an angle with the system part. In the case that the display part has an angle, the display screen of the display part and the keyboard area of the system part form the above-mentioned included angle, so that the user can watch the display screen while operating the keyboard area. Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the electronic device 100 can include a shell 10, a stop piece 20 and a key 30. The shell 10 has two plate bodies connected with each other perpendicularly. The inner and outer surfaces of one plate body are respectively a first inner surface 11 and a first outer surface 12. The inner surface of the other plate body is a second inner surface 13. The shell 10 is provided with a key hole communicating the first inner surface 11 and the first outer surface 12. The stop piece 20 is arranged on the second inner surface 13 and opposite to the first inner surface 11. The key 30 can include a body part 31 and a reset part 32. The body part 31 is fitted in the key hole. The reset part 32 is connected with the body part 31 and located between the first inner surface 11 and the stop piece 20, and respectively abuts against the first inner surface 11 and the stop piece 20. The part of the reset part 32 abutting against the first inner surface 11 and the part abutting against the stop piece 20 are connected through an elastic arm 321. In the case that the body part 31 is subjected to a target force to push the reset part 32, the elastic arm 321 is bent and deformed, so that the key 30 triggers a starting operation. After the target force is removed, the elastic arm 321 can restore to the original state to reset the body part 31.
[0044] In the embodiment, the electronic device 100 can include a housing 10, a stopper 20 arranged in the housing 10, and a button 30, a body part 31 of which is arranged through a button hole on the housing 10, and a reset part 32 connected with the body part 31 is arranged in the housing 10 and abuts against the stopper 20, so that the button 30 is fixed relative to the housing 10, and in the case that the body part 31 of the button 30 is pressed by a pressing force, the reset part 32 moves synchronously with the body part 31 and the elastic arm 321 of the reset part 32 is bent and deformed, so that the button 30 triggers corresponding operation, and in the case that the pressing force is removed, the elastic arm 321 restores deformation, so as to be able to provide a reset force opposite to a target force direction to the reset part 32 connected with the body part 31, and then the reset force can act on the body part 31 to realize reset of the body part 31. The button 30 supports the pressing movement and reset movement of the button 30 through the bending and deformation of the elastic arm 321, and the flexibility of the elastic arm 321 is less than that of the rubber column, so as to reduce the phenomenon of uneven pressing and uneven reset caused by insufficient elasticity of the rubber column. In addition, although the rubber column has good elasticity, it is easily affected by environmental factors such as temperature, humidity, ultraviolet rays, etc., so that the rubber column is easily aged, hardened or embrittled, and the problem of local insufficient elasticity occurs. The elastic arm 321 having flexibility less than that of the rubber column has good elasticity and fatigue resistance, and can maintain its elasticity for a long time without being easily deformed or broken, thereby avoiding the problem of local insufficient elasticity.
[0045] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the reset part 32 can include a first abutting part 322, a second abutting part 323, a first elastic arm 321A and a second elastic arm 321B; the first abutting part 322 abuts against the first inner surface 11; the second abutting part 323 abuts against the stopper 20; the first elastic arm 321A is arc-shaped, and two ends of the first elastic arm 321A are respectively connected with one end of the first abutting part 322 and one end of the second abutting part 323; the second elastic arm 321B is arc-shaped and consistent with the extension track of the first elastic arm 321A, and two ends of the second elastic arm 321B are respectively connected with the other end of the first abutting part 322 and the other end of the second abutting part 323.
[0046] That is, the reset portion 32 has a frame structure, which is enclosed by the first abutting portion 322, the second abutting portion 323, the first elastic arm 321A and the second elastic arm 321B. The first abutting portion 322 and the second abutting portion 323 are opposite to each other and abut against the first inner surface 11 and the stopper 20 respectively. The first elastic arm 321A and the second elastic arm 321B are located between the first abutting portion 322 and the second abutting portion 323. When the body portion 31 of the key 30 is subjected to a pressing force, the first abutting portion 322 moves towards the second abutting portion 323, and the first elastic arm 321A and the second elastic arm 321B are synchronously deformed to bend, so as to trigger the corresponding operation of the key 30. When the pressing force is removed, the first elastic arm 321A and the second elastic arm 321B restore the deformation to provide a reset force to the first abutting portion 322 and the body portion 31 connected with the first abutting portion 322 in a direction opposite to the target force direction, so as to reset the body portion 31.
[0047] In the embodiment, the reset portion 32 is enclosed by the first abutting portion 322, the second abutting portion 323, the first elastic arm 321A and the second elastic arm 321B, so that the reset portion 32 has a simple structure and is easy to manufacture. The first elastic arm 321A and the second elastic arm 321B have consistent extension trajectories, so that the movement amount of the first elastic arm 321A and the second elastic arm 321B is consistent, thereby providing a smooth movement trajectory to the body portion 31, and achieving smooth movement of the key 30.
[0048] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the first abutting portion 322 is in a sheet shape, one side surface of the first abutting portion 322 abuts against the first inner surface 11 and is connected with the body portion 31. The second abutting portion 323 is in a sheet shape, one side surface of the second abutting portion 323 abuts against the second inner surface 13, and the thickness surface of the second abutting portion 323 abuts against the stopper 20. The first elastic arm 321A is connected with the surface of the first abutting portion 322 away from the first inner surface 11 and the surface of the second abutting portion 323 away from the second inner surface 13. The second elastic arm 321B is connected with the surface of the first abutting portion 322 away from the first inner surface 11 and the surface of the second abutting portion 323 away from the second inner surface 13. The surface of the second abutting portion 323 away from the second inner surface 13 has an avoiding space 34 corresponding to the space between the first elastic arm 321A and the second elastic arm 321B, and the avoiding space 34 is opposite to the position of the body portion 31 corresponding to the first abutting portion 322.
[0049] The first abutting part 322 is in a sheet shape, and one side surface thereof abuts against the first inner surface 11, so that the first abutting part 322 and the first inner surface 11 have sufficient abutting area, so that the key 30 can be more stably in the state of abutting against the first inner surface 11 without the target force; the second abutting part 323 is in a sheet shape, and one side surface thereof abuts against the second inner surface 13, so that the second abutting part 323 and the second inner surface 13 have sufficient abutting area, so that the key 30 can be more stably in the state of abutting against the second inner surface 13 without the target force, and can smoothly move when the target force is applied. The setting of the avoiding space 34 can make the circuit board and the like trigger circuit in the avoiding space 34, and then the first abutting part 322 can move to the avoiding space 34 and press the circuit board and the like trigger circuit under the target force, so as to trigger the corresponding target operation of the electronic device 100, such as the operation of turning on, turning off, taking a picture, and the like.
[0050] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 1 to 3 , the stopper 20 is protruded with a convex part 21 on one side close to the first inner surface 11; the second abutting part 323 is provided with a stop groove 3231 matched with the convex part 21. Through the mutual matching of the convex part 21 and the stop groove 3231, the probability of displacement of the key 30 in the direction parallel to the extension direction of the first inner surface 11 (such as the direction shown by the dotted arrow in Figure 1 and Figure 2 ) can be reduced.
[0051] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 1 to 3 , the body part 31 and the reset part 32 are integrally formed. So as to improve the structural strength and integration of the key 30, and at the same time reduce the assembly times.
[0052] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 4 to 6 , the shell 10 further has a second outer surface 14, and the second outer surface 14 is recessed with a fixing groove 141; the electronic device 100 can further include a foot pad 40, and a part of the foot pad 40 is arranged in the fixing groove 141 and fixed relative to the fixing groove 141, and the thickness d1 of the foot pad 40 in the fixing groove 141 is greater than the thickness d2 of the foot pad 40 outside the fixing groove 141.
[0053] The second outer surface 14 can be the first outer surface 12, the surface opposite to the second inner surface 13, or other outer surface on the shell 10. The foot pad 40 can be connected to the fixing groove 141 by adhesion, screwing, or the like, and after the connection, part of the foot pad 40 protrudes outside the fixing groove 141, and the thickness d1 of the foot pad 40 located in the fixing groove 141 is greater than the thickness d2 of the foot pad 40 located outside the fixing groove 141, so that the foot pad 40 has sufficient connection depth with the fixing groove 141, thereby reducing the probability of the foot pad 40 falling off the fixing groove 141. Here, the surface around the periphery of the foot pad 40 can be connected to the inner side wall of the fixing groove 141, so as to further reduce the probability of the foot pad 40 falling off the fixing groove 141.
[0054] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 4 to 6 The foot pad 40 is an elastic member, which is recessed on one side of the inner bottom wall of the fixing groove 141.
