[0035] The technical solutions in the embodiments (or "implementations") of this application will be clearly and completely described herein with reference to the accompanying drawings. When the following description relates to the drawings, unless otherwise indicated, the same numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements.

[0036] If the embodiments of this application contain terms relating to directional indications or positional relationships (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, inside, outside, top, bottom, center, vertical, horizontal, longitudinal, transverse, length, width, counterclockwise, clockwise, axial, radial, circumferential, etc.), such terms are only used to explain the relative positional relationships and movements between components in a specific posture (as shown in the attached figures); if the specific posture changes, the directional indications or positional relationships will also change accordingly. Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" used in the embodiments of this application are only for descriptive convenience and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0037] The camera module and electronic device according to embodiments of this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Unless otherwise specified, the features of the following embodiments and implementations can complement or combine with each other.

[0038] During actual use, a temperature difference may exist between the internal air temperature of a mobile phone and the external environment. When the relatively warmer internal air comes into contact with the cooler protective lens of the camera, moisture in the air inside the phone condenses and forms condensation on the lens. This condensation negatively impacts the camera's shooting function, reducing image quality. Furthermore, the condensation can corrode the various electronic components inside the camera, ultimately causing it to malfunction.

[0039] This application provides a camera module, such as... Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the camera module 100 includes a camera 10, a first decorative element 20, a second decorative element 30, and a protective lens 40.

[0040] The camera 10 includes a main body 11 and a lens 12 protruding from one side of the main body 11. A first decorative element 20 is assembled to the main body 11, at least partially located on the side of the main body 11 where the lens 12 protrudes, and is bonded to the main body 11 by a first adhesive layer. A second decorative element 30 is located on the side of the first decorative element 20 away from the main body 11. A protective lens 40 is located on the side of the second decorative element 30 away from the lens 12. The main body 11, the first decorative element 20, the second decorative element 30, and the protective lens 40 enclose a receiving space 50 for accommodating the lens 12. The first adhesive layer 61 includes a water-absorbing layer for absorbing moisture from the receiving space 50.

[0041] In some embodiments, the first adhesive layer 61 may be part of forming the receiving space 50, and together with the main body 11, the first decorative element 20, the second decorative element 30 and the protective lens 40, form the receiving space 50.

[0042] The first adhesive layer 61 not only serves to bond the first decorative part 20 to the main body 11 of the camera 10, but its absorbent layer also absorbs moisture that enters the housing space 50 during assembly or use, preventing water vapor from condensing on the side of the protective lens 40 facing the lens 12. This ensures that the camera 10 can capture clear images, thereby improving image quality. The absorbent layer also prevents moisture or water vapor from corroding the camera 10 or other electronic components within the housing space 50, which helps extend the service life of the camera module 100.

[0043] The first decorative element 20, the second decorative element 30, and the protective lens 40 provide a relatively enclosed and stable environment for the camera 10, making it difficult for external dust and moisture to enter the containment space 50. At the same time, they can also prevent the camera 10 from being directly subjected to external impacts, reducing the risk of damage to the structure of the camera 10.

[0044] In one embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, the camera module 100 further includes a second adhesive layer 62 and a third adhesive layer 63. The second adhesive layer 62 is located between the first decorative element 20 and the second decorative element 30, and the third adhesive layer 63 is located between the second decorative element 30 and the protective lens 40. The second adhesive layer 62 and the third adhesive layer 63 are used to seal the accommodating space 50.

[0045] The second adhesive layer 62 can fix the relative positions of the first decorative element 20 and the second decorative element 30, preventing them from separating. The third adhesive layer 63 can fix the relative positions of the second decorative element 30 and the protective lens 40, preventing the protective lens 40 from falling off the second decorative element 30. In practical applications, the external environment may contain moisture, dust, and other tiny particles. The second adhesive layer 62 and the third adhesive layer 63 can prevent these impurities from entering the receiving space 50 through the gap between the first decorative element 20 and the second decorative element 30 or the gap between the second decorative element 30 and the protective lens 40, keeping the lens 12 in a relatively dry and clean environment and ensuring the imaging quality of the camera 10.

[0046] The second adhesive layer 62 and the third adhesive layer 63 can prevent moisture from entering the containment space 50, thus preventing the absorbent layer of the first adhesive layer 61 from losing its absorbent performance after absorbing too much moisture. This keeps the absorbent layer in a moisture-absorbing working state, ensuring that the containment space 50 remains dry, thereby preventing moisture from liquefying and condensing on the protective lens 40.

[0047] In other embodiments, the first decorative element 20, the second decorative element 30, and the protective lens 40 can also be arranged in other structural designs to form a dustproof and waterproof accommodating space 50.

[0048] In one embodiment, such as Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the first decorative element 20 includes a first plate portion 21 and a first annular portion 22 located on the side of the first plate portion 21 away from the main body portion 11. The first plate portion 21 has a first through hole 211, and the first annular portion 22 surrounds the first through hole 211. At least a portion of the structure of the lens 12 is located within the first through hole 211. The second decorative element 30 includes a second plate portion 31, the second plate portion 31 having a second through hole 311, and the first annular portion 22 extending into the second through hole 311.

[0049] The first through hole 211 provides a suitable spatial layout for the lens 12, allowing some of the structure of the lens 12 to be precisely positioned therein. This ensures that light can pass smoothly through the protective lens 40 and reach the lens 12 through the first through hole 211, enabling the camera 10 to achieve normal optical imaging function.

[0050] The second plate portion 31 and its second through hole 311 of the second decorative component 30 can form a tight nesting relationship with the first annular portion 22 of the first decorative component 20, thereby enhancing the structural integrity and stability of the camera module 100, avoiding gaps between components due to relative displacement, and helping to prevent external moisture from entering the accommodating space 50.

[0051] In one embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, the first adhesive layer 61 is disposed between the first plate portion 21 and the main body portion 11. The surfaces of the first plate portion 21 and the main body portion 11 have a large area and high flatness, which facilitates the placement of the first adhesive layer 61 and reduces the difficulty of bonding the first plate portion 21 and the main body portion 11.

[0052] In one embodiment, such as Figure 2As shown, the second adhesive layer 62 is disposed between the first plate portion 21 and the second plate portion 31. The overlapping area of ​​the projections of the first plate portion 21 and the second plate portion 31 in the vertical direction is large and the flatness of the joint between the two is high. Moisture can easily enter the accommodating space 50 from the gap between the first plate portion 21 and the second plate portion 31. The above arrangement can effectively prevent moisture intrusion.

[0053] In one embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, the third adhesive layer 63 is disposed between the protective lens 40 and the second plate portion 31. The overlapping area of ​​the projection of the second plate portion 31 and the protective lens 40 in the vertical direction is large and the flatness of the joint between the two is high. Moisture can easily enter the receiving space 50 from the gap between the second plate portion 31 and the protective lens 40. The above arrangement can effectively prevent moisture intrusion.

[0054] In one embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, the surface of the first annular portion 22 away from the main body portion 11 is bonded to the protective lens 40 through a fourth adhesive layer 64, the fourth adhesive layer 64 including a buffer layer.

[0055] To avoid a large air layer thickness between the lens 12 and the protective lens 40, the lens 12 can be positioned close to the protective lens 40 at the end face away from the main body 11. Since the first annular portion 22 of the first decorative member 20 surrounds the end face of the lens 12 away from the main body 11, the distance between the first annular portion 22 and the protective lens 40 is small.

[0056] During the use of the camera module 100, the absorbent layer of the first adhesive layer 61 will increase in volume after absorbing moisture. At this time, the first adhesive layer 61 will push the first decorative part 20 away from the main body 11, causing the first annular part 22 to come into contact with and squeeze the protective lens 40, which may cause structural deformation or other damage to the protective lens 40. The fourth adhesive layer 64 not only increases the firmness of the protective lens 40, but its buffer layer can also provide a certain amount of redundant space to prevent the first annular part 22 from squeezing the protective lens 40 after the absorbent layer absorbs water and expands.

[0057] In one embodiment, such as Figure 2As shown, the first adhesive layer 61 includes an absorbent layer and first sub-adhesive layers disposed on opposite sides of the absorbent layer along its thickness. The absorbent layer can be absorbent foam or other absorbent material layers. The first sub-adhesive layer can be an adhesive, such as double-sided tape or other adhesives. The second adhesive layer 62 and the third adhesive layer 63 can be waterproof adhesives. The fourth adhesive layer 64 includes a buffer layer and second sub-adhesive layers disposed on opposite sides of the buffer layer along its thickness. The buffer layer can be foam or other flexible material layers that provide cushioning, and the second sub-adhesive layer is an adhesive.

[0058] In one embodiment, such as Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, the second decorative element 30 also includes a second annular portion 32 located on the side of the second plate portion 31 away from the main body portion 11. The second annular portion 32 surrounds the second through hole 311, and the protective lens 40 is disposed within the space enclosed by the second annular portion 32. The second annular portion 32 surrounds the second through hole 311, and the space enclosed by it provides a clear and precise installation position for the protective lens 40, preventing the protective lens 40 from shifting during installation.

[0059] This application also provides an electronic device, such as... Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, the electronic device includes the aforementioned camera module 100 and protective cover 200. The protective cover 200 has a mounting hole 201, in which the camera module 100 is installed. A portion of the protective cover 200 is engaged between the first decorative element 20 and the second decorative element 30.

[0060] The protective cover 200, in conjunction with the first decorative element 20 and the second decorative element 30, prevents external dust and moisture from entering the electronic device. When the electronic device is subjected to external impact, the protective cover 200, together with the first decorative element 20 and the second decorative element 30, can support each other and disperse the impact force, preventing damage to components such as the camera module and battery of the electronic device.

[0061] In one embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, the protective cover 200 is bonded to the first decorative component 20 via a fifth adhesive layer 65, and the protective cover 200 is bonded to the second decorative component 30 via a sixth adhesive layer 66. The fifth adhesive layer 65 and the sixth adhesive layer 66 prevent loosening or displacement between the protective cover 200 and the first and second decorative components 20 and 30, maintaining a fixed relative position for each component and improving the stability of the electronic device structure.

[0062] In one embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, the first decorative component 20 also includes an extension 23 connected to the first plate portion 21. The edge of the protective cover 200 extends between the extension 23 and the second plate portion 31. The fifth adhesive layer 65 is disposed between the protective cover 200 and the second plate portion 31, and the sixth adhesive layer 66 is disposed between the protective cover 200 and the extension 23. The gap between the protective cover 200 and the second plate portion 31 and the extension 23 is relatively large. Through the above arrangement, the fifth adhesive layer 65 and the sixth adhesive layer 66 can be used to isolate external dust, moisture, and other impurities, preventing impurities from entering the electronic device through the gap between the protective cover 200 and the decorative component.

[0063] The electronic device in this application can be a mobile phone, tablet computer, laptop computer, television set, digital camera, or other products or components. The protective cover can be a battery cover or similar device used to protect the battery.

[0075] In the above detailed description, reference has been made to the accompanying drawings, which illustrate specific aspects of this disclosure by way of illustration. In this regard, terms indicating direction or positional relationship, such as “center,” “longitudinal,” “lateral,” “length,” “width,” “thickness,” “upper,” “lower,” “front,” “rear,” “left,” “right,” “vertical,” “horizontal,” “top,” “bottom,” “inner,” “outer,” “clockwise,” “counterclockwise,” “axial,” “radial,” and “circumferential,” are used with reference to the orientation of the described figures. Since components of the described device can be positioned in multiple different orientations, directional terms are used for illustrative purposes and not for limitation. It should be understood that other aspects can be utilized and structural or logical changes can be made without departing from the concept of this disclosure. Therefore, the following detailed description should not be considered limiting.

[0076] It should be understood that, unless otherwise specifically indicated, the various exemplary embodiments described herein and features of some embodiments of this disclosure may be combined with each other. As used herein, the term “and / or” includes any one of the relevant listed items and any combination of any two or more; similarly, “at least one of…” includes any one of the relevant listed items and any combination of any two or more.

[0077] It should be understood that, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "joining," "attaching," "installing," "connecting," "linking," "fixing," etc., used in the embodiments of this disclosure should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection, an electrical connection, or a connection that allows communication between them; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components, unless otherwise expressly limited. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms herein based on the specific circumstances.

[0078] Furthermore, the term "above" as used herein with respect to components, elements, or material layers formed or located "above" a surface may be used to indicate that the component, element, or material layer is "indirectly" positioned (e.g., placed, formed, deposited, etc.) on the surface such that one or more additional components, elements, or layers are arranged between the surface and the component, element, or material layer. However, the term "above" as used with respect to components, elements, or material layers formed or located "above" a surface may also optionally have a specific meaning: that the component, element, or material layer is "directly" positioned (e.g., placed, formed, deposited, etc.) on the surface, for example, in direct contact with the surface.

[0079] Although terms such as “first,” “second,” and “third” may be used herein to describe various components, parts, regions, layers, or sections, these components, parts, regions, layers, or sections are not limited to these terms. Rather, these terms are used only to distinguish one component, part, region, layer, or section from another. Therefore, without departing from the teachings of the examples described herein, the first component, part, region, layer, or section mentioned in the examples may also be referred to as the second component, part, region, layer, or section. Furthermore, the terms “first” and “second” are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Thus, a feature defined as “first” or “second” may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of that feature. In the description herein, “a plurality” means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0080] It should be understood that spatial relative terms, such as “above,” “upper,” “below,” and “lower,” are used herein to describe the relationship between one element and another shown in the figures. In addition to the orientation depicted in the figures, these spatial relative terms are also intended to encompass different orientations of the device in use or operation. For example, if the device in the figures is flipped, an element described as “above” or “upper” relative to another element would be “below” or “lower” relative to that other element. Thus, depending on the spatial orientation of the device, the term “above” encompasses both above and below orientations. Devices may have other orientations (e.g., rotated 90 degrees or in other orientations), and the spatial relative terms used herein should be interpreted accordingly.

[0081] Furthermore, the term “exemplary” is used herein to mean serving as an example, instance, or illustration. Any aspect or design described herein as “exemplary” is not necessarily to be construed as advantageous compared to other aspects or designs. Rather, the use of the term “exemplary” is intended to present the concept in a concrete manner. As used herein, the term “or” is intended to mean an inclusive “or” rather than an exclusive “or.” That is, unless otherwise specified or clear from the context, “X applies A or B” is intended to mean any of the natural inclusive arrangements. That is, “X applies A or B” satisfies any of the foregoing instances if X applies A; X applies B; or both X applies A and B.
