[0049] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

These terms are primarily for the purpose of better describing this invention and its embodiments, and are not intended to limit the indicated device, element, or component to having a specific orientation, or to be constructed and operated in a specific orientation.

[0051] Furthermore, in addition to indicating location or positional relationship, some of the aforementioned terms may also have other meanings. For example, the term "above" may also be used in some cases to indicate a certain dependency or connection relationship. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of these terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0052] Furthermore, the terms "installation," "setup," "equipped with," "connection," and "linked" should be interpreted broadly.

Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of these terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0053] Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," etc., are primarily used to distinguish different devices, components, or parts (which may be the same or different in specific type and construction), and are not intended to indicate or imply the relative importance or quantity of the indicated devices, components, or parts. Unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more.

[0054] Electronic devices with screens typically have protective films applied to them during daily use to prevent scratches. To avoid air bubbles and wrinkles during application, a screen protector applicator can be used.

[0055] In related technologies, the screen protector includes a first housing for holding the protective film and a second housing for holding the electronic device. When applying the film, the first housing and the second housing are laid flat, the electronic device is placed on the first housing, the protective film is placed on the second housing, the screen of the electronic device is then cleaned, and then the first housing and the second housing are closed to attach the protective film to the screen of the electronic device.

[0056] However, when cleaning electronic devices placed on the flat second housing, firstly, it occupies a large amount of space in the horizontal direction; secondly, when it is necessary to tilt the electronic device for light cleaning, it is not easy to manually lift the second housing to tilt the electronic device for heavier devices, which is inconvenient; and thirdly, after the film is applied, the film applicator is basically idle, resulting in a waste of resources.

[0057] In view of this, the present invention provides a screen protector and screen protector application device. When applying screen protector to electronic devices, the electronic devices can be tilted for cleaning without manually lifting them, reducing the space occupied in the horizontal direction and making the operation convenient. At the same time, when not applying screen protector to electronic devices, it can also be used as a stand to facilitate the use of electronic devices by users.

[0058] The technical solution of this application will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments and accompanying drawings.

[0059] This application provides a film applicator, such as... Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the film applicator 10 includes a first housing 1, a second housing 2, a connector 3, and a limiting member. The first housing 1 has a first surface 11 for placing a protective film; the second housing 2 has a second surface 21 and a third surface 22 arranged opposite to each other, the second surface 21 for placing electronic devices; the connector 3 includes a first connecting part 31, the first end 311 of the first connecting part is rotatably connected to the first housing 1, and the second end 312 of the first connecting part is rotatably connected to the second housing 2, so that the second housing 2 can cover the first housing 1 or be in an inclined state relative to the first housing 1, the second end 312 of the first connecting part is the end of the first connecting part 31 away from the first housing 1; when the second housing 2 covers the first housing 1, the second surface 21 faces the first surface 11; when the second housing 2 is in an inclined state, the first end 23 of the second housing abuts against the first surface 11, and the third surface 22 and the first surface 11 have an angle with the opening facing the connector 3, the angle is acute, and the second end 312 of the first connecting part is supported on the third surface 22; the limiting member is used to limit the angle between the third surface 22 and the first surface 11 when the second housing 2 is in an inclined state.

[0060] The first end 311 of the first connecting part is rotatably connected to the first housing 1, and the second end 312 of the first connecting part is rotatably connected to the second housing 2, so that the second housing 2 can cover the first housing 1 or be in an inclined state relative to the first housing 1. The second end 312 of the first connecting part is the end of the first connecting part 31 away from the first housing 1. When the second housing 2 is covered by the first housing 1, the second surface 21 faces the first surface 11. When the second housing 2 is in an inclined state, the first end 23 of the second housing abuts against the first surface 11, and the third surface 22 and the first surface 11 have an acute angle between them, with the opening facing the connecting member 3. The second end 312 of the first connecting part is supported on the third surface 22. The limiting member is used to limit the third surface 22 when the second housing 2 is in an inclined state. The angle between surface 22 and the first surface 11, i.e., when the second housing 2 is in an inclined state, the second surface 21 of the second housing 2 faces away from the first housing 1. On the one hand, when applying a film to an electronic device using the film applicator 10, the electronic device can be placed on the second surface 21 of the second housing 2, and the second housing 2 can be in an inclined state for cleaning the electronic device. This is convenient and can greatly reduce the space occupied by the electronic device in the horizontal direction, so that the electronic device can be applied to the electronic device even in a small horizontal space. On the other hand, when applying a film without using the film applicator 10, the second housing 2 can also be in an inclined state and used as a support. The electronic device can be placed on the inclined second housing 2, which facilitates the use of the electronic device and effectively avoids waste.

[0061] The electronic device can be a mobile phone, tablet, smartwatch, etc., and is not limited thereto. The screen protector applicator 10 can be a screen protector applicator 10 that can apply screen protectors to mobile phones, tablets, or smartwatches, and is not limited thereto.

[0062] When applying a screen protector to an electronic device using the screen protector applicator 10, first open the applicator 10 and move the second housing 2 away from the first housing 1. Then place the protective film on the first surface 11. Next, bring the first end 23 of the second housing into contact with the stop portion 12 to tilt the second housing 2. Then, place the electronic device on the second surface 21 to clean the screen. After cleaning, move the second housing 2 to cover the first housing 1 to adhere the electronic device to the protective film. Finally, open the second housing 2 and remove the electronic device to complete the screen protector application.

[0063] A second receiving groove 25 may be provided on the second surface 21 of the second housing 2. When applying a film to the electronic device or supporting the electronic device for convenient use, the electronic device may be placed in the second receiving groove 25 so that the electronic device can be placed more stably on the second housing 2.

[0064] Furthermore, a fixing protrusion extending toward the inside of the second receiving groove 25 may be provided on the groove sidewall of the second receiving groove 25, so that when the electronic device is received in the second receiving groove 25, the fixing protrusion can abut against the side of the electronic device facing the outside of the second receiving groove 25 to fix the electronic device, thereby allowing the electronic device to be placed more stably on the second housing 2.

[0065] The fixed protrusion can be made of a material with a certain degree of toughness, so that while the fixed protrusion has a certain structural strength, it can also have a certain degree of elasticity and can produce a certain degree of deformation, so as to facilitate the placement and removal of electronic devices.

[0066] When the second housing 2 is in an inclined state, the angle between the second surface 21 and the first surface 11 is an acute angle. The angle between the two can be 30°, 45°, 60°, etc., and is not limited here.

[0067] Optionally, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the axis of rotation between the first connecting part 31 and the first housing 1 is the first axis (e.g., Figure 1 (as shown by the dashed line in x1), the axis of rotation between the first connecting part 31 and the second housing 2 is the second axis (as shown by the dashed line in x1). Figure 1 (The dashed line shown in x2) indicates that the first axis is parallel to the second axis; the third surface 22 includes a first region and a second region. The second region is located near the first end 23 of the second housing. The first region is located on the side of the second region away from the first end 23 of the second housing. When the second housing 2 is covered by the first housing 1, the second region is in contact with the first connecting part 31. When the second housing 2 is in an inclined state, there is an angle between the second region and the first connecting part 31.

[0068] Therefore, when the second housing 2 is flipped from being covered by the first housing 1 to an inclined state, the second housing 2 can be flipped to rotate around the second axis, which will drive the first connecting part 31 to rotate around the first axis. The first end 23 of the second housing moves to abut against the stop part 12. At this time, the first connecting part 31 is supported on the third surface 22 of the second housing 2, which can keep the second housing 2 in an inclined state relatively stably. The operation is convenient and quick.

[0069] There are multiple ways to achieve the rotatable connection between the second end 312 of the first connecting part and the second housing 2. In one possible implementation, the connection can be achieved by rotating a shaft.

[0070] In another possible implementation, the connector 3 may also include a second connecting portion 32, which is rotatably connected to the second end 312 of the first connecting portion, and the second connecting portion 32 is connected to the portion of the third surface 22 that is away from the first end 23 of the second housing.

[0071] Therefore, the second connecting part 32 can provide a certain degree of protection for the second housing 2, and there is no need to set a corresponding structure on the second housing 2 for connecting the rotating shaft. The rotational connection between the second housing 2 and the first connecting part 31 can be achieved simply by connecting the third surface 22 of the second housing 2 to the second connecting part 32, which reduces the difficulty of setting up.

[0072] The rotatable connection between the second end 312 of the first connecting part and the second connecting part 32 can be implemented in various ways. In one possible implementation, both the first connecting part 31 and the second connecting part 32 can be plate-shaped or sheet-shaped structures. The second end 312 of the first connecting part is provided with a groove. The groove extends along the first axis to form a weak part. The second connecting part 32 can rotate relative to the first connecting part 31 around the weak part. The second axis is the line extending along the weak part. Thus, when the second housing 2 is covered by the first housing 1, there will be no structure protruding from the first connecting part 31 at the connection between the first connecting part 31 and the second connecting part 32. This makes the surface formed by the first connecting part 31 and the second connecting part 32 relatively flat, easy to place, and aesthetically pleasing.

[0073] The material of the first connecting part 31 can be leather, polyurethane, silicone, etc., and is not limited thereto. The material of the second connecting part 32 can be the same as that of the first connecting part 31.

[0074] In another way of realizing the rotatable connection between the second end 312 of the first connecting part and the second connecting part 32, the second end 312 of the first connecting part and the second connecting part 32 can be rotatably connected by a rotating shaft. Specifically, the rotating shaft can extend along the first axis, the second end 312 of the first connecting part is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft, and the end of the second connecting part 32 near the first connecting part 31 can be fixedly connected to the rotating shaft. The second axis is the axis of the rotating shaft. Thus, the rotatable connection between the first connecting part 31 and the second connecting part 32 can be relatively simple and easy to realize.

[0075] The limiting component may include a limiting pivot, that is, the pivot may be a limiting pivot. The second end 312 of the first connecting part can be rotatably connected to the second connecting part 32 through the limiting pivot. When the second housing 2 is in an inclined state, the limiting pivot is used to limit the included angle between the first connecting part 31 and the second connecting part 32.

[0076] Therefore, the included angle between the first connecting part 31 and the second connecting part 32 can be limited by the limiting pivot, thereby limiting the included angle between the first surface 11 and the second surface 21 when the second housing 2 is tilted. This effectively avoids the second housing 2 tilting at too large an angle when it is tilted, so that the second housing 2 can be stably maintained at the tilt angle when the first end 23 of the second housing abuts against the stop part 12, which greatly facilitates user operation.

[0077] The aforementioned limiting pivot can be implemented in various ways. In one possible implementation, the outer peripheral wall of the limiting pivot can be provided with a groove arranged circumferentially along the limiting pivot. The groove has a first sidewall 132 and a second sidewall 133 that are opposite each other circumferentially along the limiting pivot. A pivot hole can be provided on the second end 312 of the first connecting part. A limiting protrusion can be provided on the inner wall of the pivot hole. The limiting protrusion is slidably embedded in the groove. When the second connecting part 32 rotates relative to the first connecting part 31, the limiting protrusion can slide in the groove circumferentially along the limiting pivot until the limiting protrusion abuts against one of the first sidewall 132 and the second sidewall 133 of the groove. At this time, the second connecting part 32 There may be an angle between the first connecting part 31 and the second connecting part 32, and the first end 23 of the second housing may abut against the stop part 12; then, the limiting protrusion slides in the groove in the opposite direction until it abuts against the other of the first side wall 132 and the second side wall 133 of the groove. At this time, the first connecting part 31 and the second connecting part 32 may be located in the same plane, and the second housing 2 may be in a state of covering the first housing 1. In this way, while the first connecting part 31 and the second connecting part 32 are rotated by the limiting pivot, the angle between the first connecting part 31 and the second connecting part 32 when the second housing 2 is in an inclined state can also be limited by the cooperation between the limiting protrusion and the groove on the limiting pivot.

[0078] In another implementation of the limiting pivot, a limiting protrusion can be provided on the outer peripheral wall of the limiting pivot. When the second housing 2 is in an inclined state, the limiting protrusion can abut against the side of the first connecting part 31 that is away from the second housing 2, so as to restrict the second connecting part 32 from continuing to rotate around the second axis. Similarly, it can restrict the included angle between the first connecting part 31 and the second connecting part 32 when the second housing 2 is in an inclined state. Moreover, the structure is simple and easy to implement.

[0079] The method of realizing the rotatable connection between the first end 311 of the first connecting part and the first housing 1 can be roughly the same as the method of realizing the rotatable connection between the second end 312 of the first connecting part and the second connecting part 32. For details, please refer to the above, and will not be repeated here.

[0080] like Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, when the second housing 2 is in an inclined state, the distance between the first end 23 of the second housing and the first end 311 of the first connecting portion is a1 (as shown in the figure). This distance is parallel to the first surface 11 and parallel to the direction in which the first end 23 of the second housing points towards the first end 311 of the first connecting portion. Figure 4 The distance a1 shown in the figure is parallel to the second surface 21 and parallel to the direction from the first end 23 of the second housing to the second end 312 of the first connecting portion. The distance a2 between the first end 23 of the second housing and the second end 312 of the first connecting portion is (as shown in the figure). Figure 4 The spacing shown in a2), a1≥a2, the spacing between the first end 311 of the first connecting part and the second end 312 of the first connecting part is a3 (as shown in a2). Figure 4 (The spacing shown in a3), a1≥a3.

[0081] Therefore, when the second housing 2 is in an inclined state, the triangular structure formed by part of the first surface 11, the first connecting part 31, and part of the third surface 22 of the second housing 2 can maximize the distance between the first end 23 of the second housing and the first end 311 of the first connecting part in the direction parallel to the first surface 11. This makes the length of the part of the first surface 11 in the triangular structure the longest, so that the included angle between the first surface 11 and the second surface 21 can always remain an acute angle, and the second surface 21 can always be away from the first housing 1, so as to facilitate the operation of the electronic device placed on the second surface 21.

[0082] Furthermore, when the second housing 2 is in an inclined state, along a direction parallel to the second surface 21 and parallel to the direction from the first end 23 of the second housing to the second end 312 of the first connecting part, the distance between the first end 23 of the second housing and the second end 312 of the first connecting part is a2, and the distance between the first end 311 of the first connecting part and the second end 312 of the first connecting part is a3, where a3 ≥ a2.

[0083] Therefore, when the second housing 2 is covered by the first housing 1, the portion of the second housing 2 located between the first end 23 of the second housing and the second end 312 of the first connecting part can be covered by the first connecting part 31. This allows the second housing 2 to be stacked between the connecting part 3 and the first housing 1. As a result, when the second housing 2 is covered by the first housing 1, the appearance of the film applicator 10 is relatively flat, which greatly improves the aesthetics. It also allows the second housing 2 to be covered by the first housing 1 more tightly, so that the adhesion between the electronic device and the protective film can have better quality.

[0084] Optionally, such as Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, the distance between the first end 311 and the second end 312 of the first connecting part is a3, and the sum of the distance between the first end 311 and the second end 312 of the first connecting part and the distance between the second end 312 and the end of the second connecting part 32 away from the first connecting part 31 is a4 (e.g., ...). Figure 1 (The spacing shown in a4), a3≥1 / 3*a4.

[0085] Therefore, when the second housing 2 is tilted, the projection of the center of gravity of the second housing 2 onto the first surface 11 along the direction perpendicular to the first surface 11 is located within the first surface 11, effectively preventing the second housing 2 from tipping over because its center of gravity is located outside the first surface 11 when it is tilted.

[0086] It should be understood that the projection of the center of gravity of the second housing 2 onto the first surface 11 in the direction perpendicular to the first surface 11 is located inside the first surface 11. This can be either the projection of the center of gravity of the second housing 2 onto the first surface 11 being located at the edge of the first surface 11 or inside the first surface 11. There is no limitation on this, as long as it makes it less likely for the second housing 2 to tip over when it is tilted.

[0087] For example, the distance between the first end 311 of the first connecting portion and the second end 312 of the first connecting portion can be the same as the distance between the second end 312 of the first connecting portion and the end of the second connecting portion 32 away from the first connecting portion 31, or the distance between the first end 311 of the first connecting portion and the second end 312 of the first connecting portion can be half the distance between the second end 312 of the first connecting portion and the end of the second connecting portion 32 away from the first connecting portion 31, and there is no limitation here.

[0088] In some embodiments, the first connecting portion 31 is a first connecting plate, the second connecting portion 32 is a second connecting plate, the second connecting plate is attached to the first region, and when the second housing 2 is closed on the first housing 1, the first connecting plate is attached to the second region.

[0089] Therefore, when the second housing 2 is closed on the first housing 1, the first connecting part 31 and the second connecting part 32 can be located in the same plane, making the appearance of the film applicator 10 relatively flat. When the surfaces where the first connecting part 31 and the second connecting part 32 are located are placed on the table, the film applicator 10 can be placed more stably, and at the same time, the appearance of the film applicator 10 is also better.

[0090] The second connecting plate can completely cover the first area of ​​the third surface 22. When the second housing 2 is covered by the first housing 1, the first connecting plate can completely cover the second area of ​​the third surface 22 to provide a certain degree of protection for the second housing 2.

[0091] In other embodiments, the first connecting portion 31 may also be a first connecting piece, and the second connecting portion 32 may be a second connecting piece. The second connecting piece is attached to a portion of the first region, and when the second housing 2 is closed onto the first housing 1, the first connecting piece is in contact with a portion of the second region. This allows the first connecting portion 31 and the second connecting portion 32 to be relatively thin, making it easier for them to deform. Furthermore, the second connecting portion 32 can rotate relative to the first connecting portion 31 without requiring a special rotating structure.

[0092] In some embodiments, such as Figures 1-3 As shown, the limiting member includes a stop portion 12 disposed on the first surface 11. When the second housing 2 is in an inclined state, the first end 23 of the second housing abuts against the stop portion 12.

[0093] This allows the second housing 2 to remain relatively stable in the tilted position, making it convenient for users to clean electronic devices and use them as a stand.

[0094] Optionally, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a first receiving groove 13 is provided on the first surface 11. The first receiving groove 13 is used to receive the protective film. The first receiving groove 13 has a direction along the first direction (e.g., Figure 2 The first sidewall 132 and the second sidewall 133 are opposite to each other (in the direction shown by y in the middle). The stop portion 12 protrudes from the first sidewall 132 and / or the second sidewall 133. The first direction is parallel to the first surface 11 and perpendicular to the direction opposite to the first end 311 of the stop portion 12 and the first connecting portion.

[0095] Therefore, the protective film can be limited by the first receiving groove 13, so that the protective film can be placed more stably on the first housing 1, which is conducive to improving the film application effect.

[0096] The number of stop portions 12 can be one or two. When there is one stop portion 12, the stop portion 12 can protrude from the first side wall 132 or the second side wall 133. When there are two stop portions 12, a stop portion 12 protrudes from both the first side wall 132 and the second side wall 133, so that when the first end 23 of the second housing abuts against the stop portion 12, the second housing 2 can be kept in an inclined state more stably.

[0097] In addition, the stop portion 12 can be any of the stop protrusion, stop post, stop plate, etc., and is not limited here.

[0098] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 , Figures 5 to 7As shown, the limiting member may also include a folding limiting member 4, which is connected between the first connecting part 31 and the third surface 22. When the second housing 2 is covered by the first housing 1, the folding limiting member 4 is in a folded state and fits against the first connecting part 31. When the second housing 2 is in an inclined state, the folding limiting member 4 is in an extended state, which is used to limit the angle between the first connecting part 31 and the third surface 22.

[0099] Therefore, the angle between the first connecting part 31 and the third surface 22 can be limited by the folding limiting member 4, so as to limit the included angle between the first surface 11 and the second surface 21 when the second housing 2 is in an inclined state. This effectively avoids the second housing 2 from tilting at too large an angle, so that the second housing 2 can be stably maintained at the tilt angle when the first end 23 of the second housing abuts against the stop part 12, which greatly facilitates user operation.

[0100] Among them, the folding limiting component 4 can be any of the limiting rope, limiting plate, limiting belt, etc., and is not limited here.

[0101] In addition, it is understood that the aforementioned limiting member may include one or a combination of any two or three of the aforementioned stop part 12, folding limiting member 4, and limiting pivot, and is not limited here.

[0102] Optionally, such as Figure 2 and Figure 7 As shown, the folding limiting member 4 includes a first limiting segment 41 and a second limiting segment 42. The first end 411 of the first limiting segment is rotatably connected to the first connecting part 31. The second end 412 of the first limiting segment is rotatably connected to the first end 421 of the second limiting segment 42. The second end 422 of the second limiting segment 42 is rotatably connected to the portion of the second end 312 of the third surface 22 located at the first connecting part and the first end 23 of the second housing. When the second housing 2 is covered by the first housing 1, the first limiting segment 41 and the second limiting segment 42 are stacked in a direction perpendicular to the first surface 11, and the first limiting segment 41 is in contact with the first connecting part 31. When the second housing 2 is in an inclined state, the second limiting segment 42 is located on the side of the first limiting segment 41 closer to the third surface 22.

[0103] Therefore, the structure of the folding limiting member 4 can be relatively simple and easy to implement. When the second housing 2 is covered by the first housing 1, only the first limiting segment 41 and the second limiting segment 42 are stacked in the direction perpendicular to the first surface 11. This allows the thickness of the stacked folding limiting member 4 in the direction perpendicular to the first surface 11 to be smaller, and the degree of compression of the folding limiting member 4 on the first connecting part 31 in the direction away from the first surface 11 to be smaller, thereby allowing the outer surface of the first connecting part 31 to be relatively flat.

[0104] The implementation methods of rotating the first end 411 of the first limiting segment with the first connecting part 31, rotating the second end 412 of the first limiting segment with the first end 421 of the second limiting segment 42, and rotating the second end 422 of the second limiting segment 42 with the portion of the first end 23 of the third surface 22 near the second housing are roughly the same as the implementation methods of rotating the first connecting part 31 with the second connecting part 32. For details, please refer to the above and will not be repeated here.

[0105] In addition, the folding limiting member 4 may also include a third limiting segment, which is bonded to the side of the first connecting part 31 facing the second housing 2. The third limiting segment is rotatably connected to the first end 411 of the first limiting segment, so that the first limiting segment 41 can rotate relative to the first connecting part 31, and the connection between the folding limiting member 4 and the first connecting part 31 is simpler and easier to operate.

[0106] Optionally, the folding limiting member 4 may also include a fourth limiting segment, which is bonded to the portion of the third surface 22 near the first end 23 of the second housing. The fourth limiting segment is rotatably connected to the second end 422 of the second limiting segment 42, so that the second limiting segment 42 can rotate relative to the second housing 2, and the connection between the folding limiting member 4 and the second housing 2 is simpler and easier to operate.

[0107] When the second housing 2 is closed onto the first housing 1, in order to reduce the pressure of the folding limiting member 4 on the first connecting portion 31 when it is in the folded state, such as Figure 2 and Figure 7 As shown, the second housing 2 has a cutout portion 24 that penetrates the second surface 21 and the third surface 22. When the second housing 2 is closed on the first housing 1, the cutout portion 24 is used to accommodate the folding limiting member 4.

[0108] This significantly reduces the pressure exerted by the folding retaining clip on the first connecting portion 31, resulting in a smoother outer surface of the first connecting portion 31 when the second housing 2 is closed onto the first housing 1, greatly improving aesthetics. Furthermore, it reduces the weight of the second housing 2, making it easier to flip and allowing the applicator 10 to be lighter and more portable.

[0109] The shape of the hollow part 24 can be any of the following: square hole, round hole, elliptical hole, trapezoidal hole, etc., and is not limited here.

[0110] In other embodiments, such as Figure 3 , Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the film applicator 10 also includes a locking member 5. When the second housing 2 is closed on the first housing 1, the locking member 5 is used to lock the second housing 2 and the first housing 1.

[0111] This allows the second housing 2 to fit more stably onto the first housing 1, reducing the probability of the relative position between the electronic device and the protective film shifting due to the movement of the second housing 2. This also reduces the possibility of poor film application due to the relative position shift between the electronic device and the protective film, effectively improving the film application quality.

[0112] The locking element 5 can be implemented in various ways. In one possible implementation, the locking element 5 may include a first magnetic element and a second magnetic element. The first magnetic element is disposed on the first housing 1, and the second magnetic element is disposed on the second housing 2. When the second housing 2 is closed on the first housing 1, the first magnetic element and the second magnetic element may have an attractive magnetic force to lock the second housing 2 and the first housing 1. This makes the structure of the locking element 5 simple and easy to implement.

[0113] In another implementation of the locking element 5, such as Figure 9 As shown, the locking member 5 may include a first locking part 51 and a second locking part 52. The first locking part 51 is disposed on the first housing 1, and the second locking part 52 is disposed on the second housing 2. When the second housing 2 is closed on the first housing 1, the first locking part 51 and the second locking part 52 are engaged.

[0114] Therefore, when it is necessary to cover the first housing 1 with the second housing 2, the first locking part 51 and the second locking part 52 are locked together to achieve the locking between the second housing 2 and the first housing 1. When it is necessary to flip the second housing 2 away from the first housing 1, the first locking part 51 and the second locking part 52 are separated, which is convenient and quick to operate.

[0115] The number of first latching parts 51 can be one, two, three, or more, and is not limited here. Similarly, the number of second latching parts 52 can be one, two, three, or more, and is not limited here.

[0116] For example, when there is only one first latching part 51, the first latching part 51 can be disposed at the end of the first housing 1 away from the first connecting part 31, and the second latching part 52 can be disposed near the first end 23 of the second housing, so that the locking member 5 can lock the second housing 2 and the first housing 1 more securely.

[0117] Optionally, when the number of first contact parts 51 is two, such as Figure 3 , Figure 8 and Figure 9As shown, a first receiving groove 13 is provided on the first surface 11. The first receiving groove 13 is used to receive a protective film. A first snap-fit ​​portion 51 is provided in the area near the two groove sidewalls opposite each other along the first direction in the first receiving groove 13. A second receiving groove 25 is provided on the second surface 21 of the second housing 2. The second receiving groove 25 is used to receive electronic equipment. When the second housing 2 is closed on the first housing 1, at least a part of the second receiving groove 25 is received in the first receiving groove 13. A second snap-fit ​​portion 52 is provided on the two outer sidewalls opposite each other along the first direction. The first direction is the direction parallel to the first surface.

[0118] Therefore, when the second housing 2 covers the first housing 1, the connection between the two can be more secure, which is beneficial to improving the quality of film application.

[0119] For example, a first receiving groove 13 is provided on the first surface 11. The first receiving groove 13 is used to receive the protective film. The first receiving groove 13 has a bottom wall 131, a first side wall 132 and a second side wall 133. The first side wall 132 and the second side wall 133 are respectively provided on the two opposite sides of the bottom wall 131 along the first direction. A first snap-fit ​​portion 51 is provided on the side of the bottom wall 131 near the first side wall 132 and the side of the bottom wall 131 near the second side wall 133. A second snap-fit ​​portion 52 is provided on the two opposite outer side walls of the second housing 2 along the first direction. The first direction is a direction parallel to the first surface 11 and is also perpendicular to the direction opposite to the first end 311 of the stop portion 12 and the first end 311 of the first connecting portion.

[0120] Therefore, the two first snap-fit ​​parts 51 can be snapped into the two second snap-fit ​​parts 52 respectively, making the second housing 2 less likely to deviate or move along the second direction, making the locking member 5 more secure in locking the second housing 2 and the first housing 1, further reducing the possibility of the second housing 2 moving relative to the first housing 1 when the second housing 2 is covered by the first housing 1, and making the film application effect of the film applicator 10 better.

[0121] The first snap-fit ​​portion 51 can be implemented in various ways, such as a snap-fit ​​protrusion 512, a snap-fit ​​groove 521, or a snap-fit ​​hole; no limitation is made here. Similarly, the second snap-fit ​​portion 52 can also be implemented in various ways, such as a snap-fit ​​protrusion 512, a snap-fit ​​groove 521, or a snap-fit ​​hole; no limitation is made here. Furthermore, when the first snap-fit ​​portion 51 is a snap-fit ​​protrusion 512, the second snap-fit ​​portion 52 can be a snap-fit ​​groove 521 or a snap-fit ​​hole; when the first snap-fit ​​portion 51 is a snap-fit ​​groove 521 or a snap-fit ​​hole, the second snap-fit ​​portion 52 can be a snap-fit ​​protrusion 512.

[0122] Optionally, such as Figure 9As shown, the first snap-fit ​​part 51 includes a limiting plate 511 and a snap-fit ​​protrusion 512. The limiting plate 511 protrudes from the bottom wall 131 of the groove, and the snap-fit ​​protrusion 512 is disposed on the side of the limiting plate 511 facing the groove of the first receiving groove 13. The second snap-fit ​​part 52 includes a snap-fit ​​groove 521. When the second housing 2 is closed on the first housing 1, the limiting plate 511 abuts against the outer side wall of the second housing 2, and the snap-fit ​​protrusion 512 is snapped into the snap-fit ​​groove 521.

[0123] Therefore, when the second housing 2 is covered by the first housing 1, the first snap-fit ​​part 51 can also limit the second housing 2 along the first direction to prevent the second housing 2 from deviating from the first housing 1 along the first direction, or from moving relative to the first housing 1 along the first direction during the film application process. This makes it less likely for the relative position between the electronic device and the protective film to shift, thereby improving the film application quality. At the same time, it also makes the structure of the first snap-fit ​​part 51 and the second snap-fit ​​part 52 simpler and easier to implement.

[0124] The snap-fit ​​protrusion 512 may have guide surfaces on its opposite sides along the direction perpendicular to the first surface 11, so that when the second housing 2 is closed on the first housing 1, the snap-fit ​​protrusion 512 is guided to snap into the snap-fit ​​groove 521, or when the second housing 2 is flipped away from the first housing 1, the snap-fit ​​protrusion 512 is guided to disengage from the snap-fit ​​groove 521, thereby making the snap-fit ​​and disengagement between the first snap-fit ​​part 51 and the second snap-fit ​​part 52 time-saving and labor-saving.

[0125] In addition, the snap-fit ​​plate can have a certain degree of elasticity, that is, the snap-fit ​​plate can be an elastic snap-fit ​​plate, so that the distance between the two snap-fit ​​plates along the first direction can be slightly smaller than the distance between the two opposite outer side walls of the second housing 2 along the first direction, so that when the second housing 2 is covered by the first housing 1, the two snap-fit ​​plates can clamp the second housing 2, so that the first snap-fit ​​part 51 has a better effect on restricting the deviation and movement of the second housing 2.

[0126] The snap-fit ​​plate can be made of plastic with a certain degree of elasticity, or the bottom wall 131 of the first receiving groove 13 can be provided with a through hole, which is located on the side of the snap-fit ​​plate facing the groove, so as to provide space for elastic deformation of the snap-fit ​​plate, making it easier for the snap-fit ​​plate to undergo elastic deformation after being subjected to force.

[0127] This application also discloses a film applicator, including the film applicator 10 described in any of the above claims and a protective film assembly, wherein the protective film assembly is placed in the first receiving groove 13 of the film applicator 10.

[0128] The film applicator 10 in the film applicator is the same as the film applicator 10 described in the above embodiments. Therefore, the film applicator can have the same or similar beneficial effects as the film applicator 10 in the above embodiments, and will not be described again here.

[0129] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features therein. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
