[0002] With the development of smart home and smart building technologies, electronic doorplates have been widely used as terminals for displaying and interacting with information at building or resident entrances. However, existing electronic doorplate technologies still have the following shortcomings: First, the appearance of existing doorplates is usually a one-piece molding or fixed design, with its color, material, and style determined at the factory. Users cannot change them according to the building's decoration style or personal preferences, resulting in poor integration of the product with the environment and a lack of personalized choices. Second, although many electronic doorplates have backlit display functions for room numbers, their backlight design is often not refined enough. Improper light source layout may cause uneven brightness, local dark areas, or shadows, affecting the overall aesthetic effect and the clarity of information recognition. Utility Model Content

[0017] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of this utility model will be described in detail below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other implementation methods obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0018] This application provides a modular electronic doorplate, which aims to solve the problems of insufficient customizability of electronic doorplate appearance and poor backlight display effect in the prior art.

[0019] Figure 1 This is an exploded view of a modular electronic doorplate provided as an embodiment of this application. Figure 1 As shown, the modular electronic doorplate mainly consists of a base 1, an electronic functional module 2, a mounting bracket 3, and a panel 4. This four-section modular design effectively separates and decouples the doorplate's appearance, core functions, structural support, and wall fixing, laying a structural foundation for achieving a high degree of customizability in appearance, flexibility in installation, and ease of maintenance.

[0020] Specifically, in terms of assembly, the base 1 serves as the bottom structure of the entire device, directly fixed to the mounting surface (e.g., a wall). The mounting bracket 3, detachably connected to the base 1, primarily functions as the structural framework supporting and fixing the electronic functional module 2. The electronic functional module 2, as the core for realizing all the electronic functions of the doorplate, is housed and fixed within the structural space formed inside the base 1. Finally, as the external part directly observed and interacted with by the user, the panel 4 is detachably mounted on the outermost layer of the mounting bracket 3, thus covering the internal mounting bracket 3 and electronic functional module 2, forming a complete and aesthetically pleasing electronic doorplate product.

[0021] The components described above will be explained in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0022] The base 1 is typically made of high-strength, weather-resistant engineering plastics (such as polycarbonate or its alloy with acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymer) through injection molding to ensure its structural stability and durability in complex environments.

[0023] The mounting bracket 3 has a flat frame structure with mounting parts to accommodate different installation scenarios. In this embodiment, the mounting parts specifically include a first through hole 14 and a second through hole 15. The first through hole 14 is used to fix the mounting bracket 3 to the base 1, and can be specifically set as a through hole at approximately the center of both ends of the mounting bracket 3, corresponding to the mounting holes on the base 1. During installation, M4-sized machine screws can be used to pass through these two through holes to firmly fix the mounting bracket 3 to the base 1. Correspondingly, the second through hole 15 is used to directly fix the mounting bracket 3 to a wall surface (such as a wooden wall, plasterboard wall, or brick wall) without the base 1. In this embodiment, the second through hole 15 can be specifically set as screw holes distributed at the four corners of the mounting bracket 3 to be used with self-tapping screws. By simultaneously setting the first through hole 14 and the second through hole 15, the electronic doorplate of this application can flexibly adapt to two mainstream installation methods, significantly improving the product's installation compatibility and scenario adaptability.

[0024] The mounting bracket 3 can also be injection molded from engineering plastics. The mounting bracket 3 has a mounting groove 16 for accommodating the electronic functional module 2. The shape and size of the mounting groove 16 precisely match the shape of the electronic functional module 2 to ensure that the electronic functional module 2 can be stably placed within it. As a preferred implementation, to further improve the stability and positioning accuracy of the installation, limiting portions 17 can be correspondingly provided on the peripheral sidewalls of the mounting groove 16 and the peripheral sidewalls of the electronic functional module 2. These limiting portions 17 can be one or more pairs of cooperating ribs and grooves. When the electronic functional module 2 is placed into the mounting groove 16, the engagement of the ribs and grooves prevents undesirable displacement or rotation. Furthermore, the mounting bracket 3 and the electronic functional module 2 can be designed as a detachable connection secured by screws, facilitating subsequent possible maintenance or upgrades of the functional module. The mounting bracket 3 is also connected to the panel 4 via a snap-fit ​​connection. In this embodiment, multiple snap-fit ​​structures are provided on the outer peripheral edge of the mounting bracket 3, which cooperate with the snap-fit ​​structure on the inner side of the panel 4, thereby achieving a snap-fit ​​connection of the panel 4. This connection method is robust and reliable, while allowing users to easily remove and replace panel 4 when needed.

[0025] In this embodiment, the electronic functional module 2 is the core of the entire doorplate, integrating all necessary electronic components onto one or more circuit boards and encapsulating them into an independent module. For example... Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the outer wall of the electronic functional module 2 is provided with exposed components and an integrated light-emitting panel 6. Exposed components refer to parts that need to penetrate the panel 4 to interact with the external environment; in this embodiment, they mainly include the camera 8 and the doorbell button 9. It should be noted that the electronic functional module 2 in this embodiment includes an integrated light-emitting panel 6, used to provide uniform backlighting for information on the panel 4 (such as room number). Unlike the traditional solution that uses a few point light sources in conjunction with a light guide plate, the integrated light-emitting panel 6 in this embodiment is itself a surface light source. Specifically, the integrated light-emitting panel 6 can be a light-emitting diode (LED) panel, which has a large number of surface-mount LED particles densely and uniformly arranged on a printed circuit board, and a light-diffusing plate or diffuser is placed above the LED array. Through the scattering and homogenization effect of the light-diffusing plate, the entire panel can emit soft light with highly uniform brightness and no local dark areas or shadows. This design fundamentally improves the "spot" or uneven brightness problems common in traditional backlighting solutions, significantly enhancing the aesthetic effect and information recognition clarity of the backlight display.

[0026] Panel 4 constitutes the outer surface of the product, and its material and manufacturing process can affect the final appearance and texture of the product. In this embodiment, panel 4 can be made of the same engineering plastic material as base 1 and mounting bracket 3, manufactured through injection molding. To meet personalized needs, different colored masterbatches can be used during injection molding, or secondary processing such as spraying, electroplating, and water transfer printing can be performed after molding to provide panels with a variety of colors and textures for users to choose from, such as matte black, brushed silver, and wood grain. Figure 1 and attached Figure 2 As shown, the front of panel 4 has several openings to accommodate the internal electronic functional module 2, specifically including a camera hole 18 for exposing the camera 8 and a button hole 21 for exposing the doorbell button 9. In addition, panel 4 also has a light-transmitting display area 7 that precisely corresponds to the position of the integrated light-emitting panel 6 in the electronic functional module 2. This light-transmitting display area 7 can be implemented in various ways. For example, the corresponding area of ​​panel 4 can be thinned to make it semi-transparent; or, if the panel itself is opaque, a hollowed-out number or character pattern can be formed in the light-transmitting display area 7 using laser engraving or screen printing. When the internal integrated light-emitting panel 6 is lit, light can penetrate the light-transmitting display area 7, clearly and evenly illuminating information such as the room number. As an optional implementation, the panel can also have a sound outlet 19 and a sound receiver 20, corresponding to the speaker and microphone inside the electronic functional module, respectively. It should be noted that the speaker and microphone on the electronic functional module 2 are externally fitted with a waterproof membrane to ensure waterproofing.

[0027] To ensure the reliability of the equipment in outdoor or semi-outdoor environments, this application also includes a waterproof structure design, such as... Figure 3 and attached Figure 4As shown. This application features a sophisticated waterproof structure around the opening of panel 4. For camera 8, the waterproof structure can be an annular sealing ring 10, which is pressed between camera 8 and the outer panel of electronic functional module 2 during assembly to form a reliable waterproof seal. For doorbell button 9, the waterproof structure is more complex, as it needs to simultaneously ensure the button's pressing travel and tactile feedback. One feasible solution is that the waterproof components of doorbell button 9 include an inner key 12 located inside for triggering the circuit switch, and an elastic sealing gasket 13 located between the inner key 12 and doorbell button 9. The peripheral edge of the elastic sealing gasket 13 (e.g., made of silicone rubber) is pressed tightly against the outer panel by a pressure member 11 to form a circumferential seal. The inner key 12 is located inside the elastic sealing gasket 13, and the doorbell button 9 is located outside the elastic sealing gasket 13, with a portion of the inner key 12 able to be embedded in a groove inside the doorbell button 9. When the user presses the button, the force is transmitted through the button to the elastic sealing gasket 13, causing it to deform, while the inner button 12 triggers the switch; after releasing the button, the elasticity of the elastic sealing gasket 13 causes the doorbell button 9 and the inner button 12 to return to their original positions. Throughout the process, the elastic sealing gasket 13 remains sealed to the panel 4, effectively preventing moisture intrusion.

[0028] In other embodiments, the panel 4 and the mounting bracket 3 can be connected magnetically, allowing a permanent magnet to be placed on one of them, and a permanent magnet or magnetic element to be placed at a corresponding position on the other.

[0029] Panel 4 can use higher-end materials, such as a single piece of aluminum alloy sheet with surface treatments such as wire drawing and anodizing, or a piece of special glass that has been tempered and screen-printed, to match the decoration style of high-end buildings.
