AI Technical Summary
The existing hinge structure between the lens cover and the housing of 8K set-top boxes will generate friction after repeated opening and closing, causing the lens cover to loosen and fail to completely cover the camera.
The design incorporates a bracket, a sliding cover, a first magnetic component, a second magnetic component, and a third magnetic component. The sliding cover is held in a blocked or recessed position by magnetism, ensuring that the lens is either covered or exposed. The magnetic attraction force of the magnetic components keeps the sliding cover in the designated position without external force.
It achieves complete lens coverage when needed and complete exposure when not needed, ensuring the effectiveness of the lens cap and avoiding loosening issues caused by friction.
