The terms "first," "second," etc., in the specification, claims, or foregoing drawings of this application are used to distinguish different objects, not to describe a particular order.

[0028] In this document, the term "embodiment" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with an embodiment may be included in at least one embodiment of this application. The appearance of this phrase in various places throughout the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a separate or alternative embodiment mutually exclusive with other embodiments. It will be explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.

[0029] This application provides a portable electronic device, which forms a suspension gap by means of a housing and a suspension member. The suspension gap includes a larger guide gap and a smaller clamping gap, so that when fixing the lanyard, the lanyard only needs to be inserted through the guide gap into the clamping gap to be clamped and fixed in the clamping gap, thereby achieving the fixation of the lanyard and making the fixation of the lanyard convenient for the user to hang the lanyard.

[0030] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0031] Please see Figures 1 to 3 This application provides a portable electronic device 1000. In this application and the accompanying drawings, the portable electronic device 1000 is described as a portable fan. In other embodiments, the portable electronic device 1000 can also be a power bank, a hand warmer, or other electronic devices.

[0032] The portable electronic device 1000 includes a housing 100 and a suspension member 200. The suspension member 200 is disposed on the housing 100, and the housing 100 provides mounting positions for the suspension member 200 and other components. It should be noted that the housing 100 may be configured to include only one housing member, with all components integrated within it; or the housing 100 may include multiple housing members, with all components distributed within the multiple housing members. In this embodiment, the housing 100 includes a handheld housing 110, a fan housing 120, and a connecting housing 130. One end of the connecting housing 130 is connected to the upper corner of the handheld housing 110, and the other end of the connecting housing 130 is connected to the outer periphery of the fan housing 120. In other embodiments, the housing 100 may also include a handheld housing 110 and a fan housing 120, which are directly connected. Obviously, the housing member can have various shapes; it can be a standard cylindrical, prismatic, elliptical cylindrical, or other regular shapes, or it can be a bent or other irregular shapes. No specific limitations are made here.

[0033] It is worth mentioning that when the housing 100 is a single shell, the suspension member 200 can be one or multiple. For example, two suspension members 200 can be respectively disposed on two opposite sides of the housing 100, or four suspension members 200 can be correspondingly disposed on four surfaces of the housing 100 connected in sequence. When the housing 100 is multiple shells, some shells can be provided with suspension members 200, or all shells can be provided with suspension members 200. Correspondingly, the number of suspension members 200 on each shell can be the same or different, and no specific limitation is made here.

[0034] The suspension member 200 and the housing 100 form a suspension gap 201. The suspension gap 201 includes at least an inlet gap 2011 and a clamping gap 2012 communicating with the inlet gap 2011. The inlet gap 2011 is larger than the clamping gap 2012, and the size of the inlet gap 2011 is larger than the diameter of the rope. The size of the clamping gap 2012 is set according to the diameter of the rope, so that the clamping gap 2012 can achieve interference clamping of the rope. In this embodiment, the clamping gap 2012 and the rope have a small interference fit. This setting can both clamp and fix the rope and facilitate the application of external force to the rope to overcome the friction between the rope and the inner wall of the clamping gap 2012, allowing the rope to enter the positioning gap 2013, which will be described below. Obviously, in other embodiments, the clamping gap 2012 and the rope can also have a large interference fit.

[0035] Preferably, the guide gap 2011 and the clamping gap 2012 are directly connected, so that the rope can be directly inserted into the clamping gap 2012 after passing through the guide gap 2011, which facilitates the threading of the rope. Alternatively, the guide gap 2011 and the clamping gap 2012 can also be indirectly connected, that is, an additional gap is provided to connect the two.

[0036] The lengths of the inlet gap 2011 and the clamping gap 2012 are set according to the actual application scenario. For example, the lengths of the inlet gap 2011 and the clamping gap 2012 can be set to any length value or a range of two of the following: 0.5mm, 0.6mm, 0.7mm, 0.8mm, 0.9mm, 1.0mm, 1.1mm, 1.2mm, 1.3mm, 1.4mm, and 1.5mm. No specific limitation is made here.

[0037] With the above technical solution, when installing the lanyard to the portable electronic device 1000, the lanyard only needs to be passed through the guide gap 2011 and inserted into the clamping gap 2012 to be clamped and fixed within the clamping gap 2012, thus completing the installation of the lanyard. When removing the lanyard from the portable electronic device 1000, an external force is first applied to the lanyard to overcome the friction between the lanyard and the inner wall of the clamping gap 2012, allowing the lanyard to enter the guide gap 2011. Then, the lanyard is passed out of the guide gap 2011 to complete the removal of the lanyard. This design makes the installation and removal of the lanyard convenient for users.

[0038] Please see Figures 1 to 3 In order for the guide gap 2011 to play a guiding role when the rope enters the suspension gap 201 from the guide gap 2011, please refer to Figure 1In one embodiment of this application, the guide gap 2011 is gradually narrowed from the guide gap 2011 to the clamping gap 2012, so that the inner wall of the guide gap 2011 is formed as a guide surface 20111. With this configuration, after the rope is inserted into the guide gap 2011, the guide surface 20111 can guide the rope into the clamping gap 2012, thereby enabling the guide gap 2011 to play a guiding role when the rope enters the clamping gap 2012 from the guide gap 2011.

[0039] There are many ways to make the guide gap 2011 gradually narrow from the guide gap 2011 to the clamping gap 2012. In this embodiment, only the inner wall of the guide gap 2011 that is spaced apart from the housing 100 is formed as a guide surface 20111, and the guide surface 20111 is set as an outwardly inclined slope from the clamping gap 2012 to the guide gap 2011. Preferably, the inclination angle of the slope is 45 degrees, which can make the guiding effect of the guide surface 20111 better. In addition, the inclination angle of the slope can also be other angle values ​​such as 30 degrees, 35 degrees, 40 degrees, 50 degrees, 55 degrees, 60 degrees, etc. In other embodiments, both the inner wall of the guide gap 2011 that is spaced apart from the housing 100 and the inner wall of the guide gap 2011 formed by the housing 100 can be formed as guide surfaces 20111. Of course, the guide surface 20111 can also be set as an outwardly convex arc surface, which can also play a guiding role.

[0040] To allow for adjustment of the rope's position while suspending it through the suspension gap 201, please refer to... Figures 1 to 3 In one embodiment of this application, the suspension gap 201 further includes a positioning gap 2013, which is connected to the side of the clamping gap 2012 away from the guide gap 2011. The positioning gap 2013 is larger than the clamping gap 2012, and the rope can move within the positioning gap 2013.

[0041] With the above technical solution, when suspending the rope, first pass the rope through the guide gap 2011 and extend it into the clamping gap 2012. Then, apply external force to the rope to overcome the friction between the rope and the inner wall of the clamping gap 2012, so that the rope enters the positioning gap 2013 from the clamping gap 2012. Then, pull the rope along the positioning gap 2013 to finely adjust the position of the rope. In this way, the position of the rope can be adjusted when suspending the rope through the suspension gap 201.

[0042] Preferably, please refer to Figures 1 to 3At least a portion of the inner wall of the positioning gap 2013 is provided in a concave arc shape, so that the shape of the positioning gap 2013 matches the shape of the hanging rope, thereby facilitating the pulling of the rope along the positioning gap 2013. Specifically, the inner wall of the positioning gap 2013 spaced apart from the housing 100 is in a concave semi-circular arc shape, and the side of the inner wall of the positioning gap 2013 formed by the housing 100 away from the clamping gap 2012 is in a concave arc shape. Furthermore, the connection between the inner wall of the positioning gap 2013 spaced apart from the housing 100 and the inner wall of the clamping gap 2012 spaced apart from the housing 100 is rounded, so that the connection between the positioning gap 2013 and the clamping gap 2012 presents a smooth transition, making it convenient for the rope to enter the positioning gap 2013 from the clamping gap 2012.

[0043] Considering that if the size of the protruding portion of the suspension component 200 relative to the surface of the housing 100 can be effectively reduced, the size of the portable electronic device 1000 can be effectively reduced, which is beneficial to the miniaturization of the portable electronic device 1000. Please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 1 , Figure 4 as well as Figure 5 In one embodiment of this application, the surface of the housing 100 is provided with a recessed region 101, and the suspension member 200 is at least partially located within the recessed region 101 and surrounds the recessed region 101 to form a suspension gap 201. This allows a portion of the suspension member 200 to be located within the recessed region 101 on the surface of the housing 100, thereby effectively reducing the size of the protruding portion of the suspension member 200 relative to the surface of the housing 100. In other embodiments, the suspension member 200 may also be configured to protrude entirely from the surface of the housing 100.

[0044] It is understandable that if the clamping gap 2012 is open on the side furthest from the guide gap 2011, after the rope enters the clamping gap 2012 from the guide gap 2011, pulling the rope along the clamping gap 2012 may easily cause it to slip out of the clamping gap 2012 due to excessive force. Therefore, to prevent the rope from slipping out of the clamping gap 2012 due to excessive force after entering from the guide gap 2011, please refer to [the relevant documentation / reference]. Figure 1 In one embodiment of this application, the side of the clamping gap 2012 away from the guide gap 2011 is blocked.

[0045] In this embodiment, the side of the clamping gap 2012 away from the guide gap 2011 is connected to the positioning gap 2013 in the above embodiment. The end of the positioning gap 2013 away from the holding gap is blocked, thus indirectly achieving the blocking of the side of the clamping gap 2012 away from the guide gap 2011. In other embodiments, the suspension gap 201 may also include only the guide gap 2011 and the clamping gap 2012, directly blocking the side of the clamping gap 2012 away from the guide gap 2011.

[0046] To enhance the securing strength of the lanyard, please refer to [link / reference needed]. Figures 1 to 3 In one embodiment of this application, the suspension member 200 and the housing 100 are arranged to form two symmetrical suspension gaps 201. This arrangement allows the rope to be fixed at two positions through the two suspension gaps 201, thereby enhancing the fixing strength of the rope.

[0047] Further, please refer to Figures 1 to 3 The housing 100 has hanging members 200 on both sides facing each other. Each hanging member 200 is arranged with a corresponding position on the housing 100 to form a hanging gap 201. This allows the two ends of the rope to be hung at the two hanging members 200, making it easier to hang the rope. In this embodiment, the handheld housing 110 in the housing 100 has hanging members 200 on both sides facing each other.

[0048] In other embodiments, the suspension member 200 may also be arranged with the housing 100 to form three, four, five or other values ​​of suspension gaps 201, and all suspension gaps 201 are arranged in a ring.

[0049] There are many ways to connect the suspension component 200 and the housing 100. In one embodiment of this application, the suspension component 200 and the housing 100 are integrally formed. There are many ways to integrally form the suspension component 200 and the housing 100. They can be formed by injection molding, rotational molding, or other integral forming methods such as 3D printing. No specific limitation is made here. With this setting, the two components, the suspension component 200 and the housing 100, can be formed in one step, and the connection strength between the suspension component 200 and the housing 100 can be enhanced.

[0050] In another embodiment of this application, the suspension member 200 is detachably connected to the housing 100. Please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 4 and Figure 5The housing 100 has an inner cavity 102 and an insertion port 103 communicating with the inner cavity 102. The suspension member 200 includes a suspension part 210 and an insertion part 220 connected to the suspension part 210. The insertion part 220 is inserted into the insertion port 103. With this arrangement, the suspension member 200 and the housing 100 can be detachably connected through the cooperation of the insertion part 220 and the insertion port 103. Obviously, the suspension part 210, the insertion part 220 and the housing 100 surround and form the suspension gap 201 in the above embodiment, and the insertion port 103 is located on the bottom wall of the recessed area 101.

[0051] Preferably, please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 The end of the insertion part 220 away from the suspension part 210 is shaped like a frustum, so that the insertion part 220 can be inserted into the insertion port 103.

[0052] In other embodiments, the detachable connection between the suspension member 200 and the housing 100 can also be achieved through other methods such as snap-fit, tenon-and-mortise connection, threaded connection, magnetic connection, etc.

[0053] To enhance the fixing strength of the insert 220, please refer to... Figures 4 to 7 In one embodiment of this application, the end of the insertion part 220 away from the suspension part 210 extends into the inner cavity 102 and is provided with an insertion hole 221. The portable electronic device 1000 also includes a fixing member 300, which includes an insertion part 310 and an abutment part 320 connected to the insertion part 310. The insertion part 310 is inserted into the insertion hole 221, and the abutment part 320 abuts against the cavity wall of the inner cavity 102 adjacent to the insertion port 103.

[0054] With the above technical solution, when installing the suspension member 200, the insertion part 220 is first inserted into the inner cavity 102 of the housing 100 through the insertion port 103, and then the insertion part 310 of the fixing member 300 is inserted into the insertion hole 221, and the abutting part 320 abuts against the cavity wall of the inner cavity 102 adjacent to the insertion port 103, thus completing the installation of the suspension member 200; when disassembling the suspension member 200, the insertion part 310 is first removed from the insertion hole 221 with a tool, and the constraint on the abutting part 320 is released at the same time, and then the insertion part 220 is pulled out from the insertion port 103, thus completing the disassembly of the suspension member 200. This can enhance the fixing strength of the insertion part 220.

[0055] Specifically, the handheld housing 110 includes a housing body 111 and a side cover 112. The side cover 112 is connected to the housing body 111 in a detachable manner as described in the above embodiment, and the side cover 112 and the housing body 111 surround and form the inner cavity 102 of the housing 100 in the above embodiment, which facilitates the installation of the fastener 300 in the inner cavity 102.

[0056] Preferably, please refer to Figure 6 and Figure 7 The end of the plug portion 310 away from the abutment portion 320 is shaped like a frustum, so that the plug portion 310 can be inserted into the plug hole 221.

[0057] Obviously, the embodiments described above are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. The accompanying drawings show preferred embodiments of this application, but do not limit the patent scope of this application. This application can be implemented in many different forms; rather, the purpose of providing these embodiments is to provide a more thorough and comprehensive understanding of the disclosure of this application.
