Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electronic product technology, and in particular to a camera mounting structure and a mobile device. Background Technology

[0002] Camera modules are indispensable in mobile devices. These modules are typically mounted on a back panel. Because the mounting plate needs multiple openings to accommodate the flash and camera, its structural strength is relatively poor, making it prone to bending and deformation, which affects the stability of the camera module. For example, the utility model patent application CN202320620049.1 describes a groove formed on the inner side of the metal bracket body where it mates with the phone camera accessories. A camera hole and a flash hole are then created within this groove. The groove forms a reinforcing edge around the bracket body, improving its structural strength and thus the stability of the camera module. However, this reinforcing edge exhibits significant stress concentration, making it susceptible to micro-cracks under vibration or impact. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a camera mounting structure and mobile device that can reduce the generation of microcracks while improving structural strength and deformation resistance, thereby further improving installation stability.

[0004] The objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: A camera mounting structure includes a mounting bracket for housing on one side of a back panel.

[0011] In one embodiment, an auxiliary chamfer structure is provided at the intersection of the groove wall and the side of the reinforcing edge away from the back plate.

[0012] In one embodiment, the auxiliary chamfering structure is a C-type auxiliary chamfering structure or an R-type auxiliary chamfering structure.

[0013] In one embodiment, the width of the auxiliary chamfer structure is 1 / 16 to 1 / 10 of the width of the reinforcing edge.

[0014] A mobile device includes a back panel and a camera mounting structure as described in any of the above embodiments, wherein the mounting bracket is accommodated on one side of the back panel.

[0015] In one embodiment, the backplate includes a hardened layer, a metallic film, an adhesive layer, a polycarbonate layer, and a bottom oil film layer that are stacked sequentially, and the mounting bracket is accommodated in the bottom oil film layer.

[0022] This application provides a camera mounting structure. The camera mounting structure includes a mounting bracket for housing on one side of a back panel. A groove is provided on the side of the mounting bracket away from the back panel to form a reinforcing edge around the periphery of the mounting bracket. A chamfer structure is provided at the intersection of the outer peripheral wall of the reinforcing edge and the side of the reinforcing edge away from the back panel. At least one camera hole and at least one lamp hole are provided at the bottom of the groove.

[0023] The aforementioned camera mounting structure features a groove on the side of the mounting bracket away from the back panel, allowing the unoccupied portion of the mounting bracket to form a reinforcing edge. This ensures that the reinforcing edge is at least the periphery of the mounting bracket, and at least one camera hole and at least one lamp hole are located at the bottom of the groove. This significantly improves the overall structural strength and deformation resistance of the mounting bracket. Furthermore, the chamfered structure at the intersection of the outer peripheral wall of the reinforcing edge and the side of the reinforcing edge away from the back panel effectively reduces the stress peak at the periphery of the reinforcing edge, mitigating the generation of micro-cracks on the mounting bracket and further enhancing the installation stability of the camera.

[0024] To better understand the camera mounting structure of this application, the following further explanation is provided: Please refer to the following: Figures 1 to 4 One embodiment of the camera mounting structure 10 includes a mounting bracket 100, which is used to accommodate a side of a back plate. A groove 101 is provided on the side of the mounting bracket 100 away from the back plate so that at least the periphery of the mounting bracket 100 forms a reinforcing edge 100a. A chamfer structure 100b is provided at the intersection of the outer peripheral wall of the reinforcing edge 100a and the side of the reinforcing edge 100a away from the back plate. At least one camera hole 102 and at least one lamp hole 103 are provided at the bottom of the groove 101.

[0025] The aforementioned camera mounting structure 10 provides a groove 101 on the side of the mounting bracket 100 away from the back plate, so that the space of the mounting bracket 100 not occupied by the groove 101 forms a reinforcing edge 100a, ensuring that the reinforcing edge 100a is at least the periphery of the mounting bracket 100. At least one camera hole 102 and at least one lamp hole 103 are located at the bottom of the groove 101, which significantly improves the overall structural strength and deformation resistance of the mounting bracket 100. Furthermore, the intersection of the outer peripheral wall of the reinforcing edge 100a and the side of the reinforcing edge 100a away from the back plate is provided with a chamfered structure 100b, which effectively reduces the stress peak at the periphery of the reinforcing edge 100a, reduces the generation of microcracks on the mounting bracket 100, and further improves the installation stability of the camera.

[0026] Please refer to the following: Figures 1 to 4 In one embodiment, the width of the reinforcing edge 100a is 1.0mm to 1.5mm. Further, the width of the reinforcing edge 100a is 1.2mm. Further, the thickness of the reinforcing edge 100a is 1 / 2 to 2 / 3 of the thickness of the mounting bracket 100. It can be understood that the remaining thickness at the location where the groove 101 is formed in the mounting bracket 100 is the thickness of a conventional camera mounting plate, and is not limited here. However, for example, the thickness of the mounting bracket 100 is 1mm, which better ensures the structural strength and deformation resistance of the mounting bracket 100.

[0027] In one embodiment, the chamfer structure is a C-shaped chamfer structure or an R-shaped chamfer structure. Further, the width of the chamfer structure is 1 / 8 to 1 / 2 of the width of the reinforcing edge. Further, the dimensions of the chamfer structure are C45° × 0.4 mm. Further, the dimensions of the chamfer structure are R0.5 mm, which better ensures the reduction of microcrack formation on the mounting bracket.

[0028] In one embodiment, the mounting bracket is a metal bracket. Further, the mounting bracket is an aluminum alloy bracket, a magnesium alloy bracket, or a titanium alloy bracket, which better ensures the structural strength and deformation resistance of the mounting bracket.

[0029] Please refer to the following: Figures 1 to 4 In one embodiment, the groove 101 includes at least one camera groove 1011 and at least one lamp groove 1012, with the camera groove 1011 and the lamp groove 1012 spaced apart, such that reinforcing edges 100a are distributed between the camera groove 1011 and the lamp groove 1012, and the reinforcing edges 100a are distributed around the periphery of the mounting bracket 100. Furthermore, a camera hole 102 is located at the bottom of the camera groove 1011, and a lamp hole 103 is located at the bottom of the lamp groove 1012, so that the reinforcing edges 100a are formed not only by the periphery of the mounting bracket 100, but also by the portion between the camera groove 1011 and the lamp groove 1012 of the mounting bracket 100, further improving the structural strength and deformation resistance of the mounting bracket 100.

[0030] Please refer to the following: Figures 1 to 4 In one embodiment, an auxiliary chamfer structure 100c is provided at the intersection of the groove wall of the groove 101 and the side of the reinforcing edge 100a away from the back plate. Further, an auxiliary chamfer structure 100c is provided at the intersection of the groove wall of the camera groove 1011 and the side of the reinforcing edge 100a away from the back plate. Further, an auxiliary chamfer structure 100c is provided at the intersection of the groove wall of the lamp groove 1012 and the side of the reinforcing edge 100a away from the back plate. Further, the auxiliary chamfer structure is a C-type auxiliary chamfer structure or an R-type auxiliary chamfer structure. Further, the specifications of the auxiliary chamfer structure are C45° × 0.08mm. Further, the specifications of the auxiliary chamfer structure are R0.1mm. The width of the auxiliary chamfer structure is 1 / 16 to 1 / 10 of the width of the reinforcing edge. Further, the width of the auxiliary chamfer structure is 1 / 12 of the width of the reinforcing edge. Further, this further reduces the generation of microcracks on the mounting bracket.

[0031] This application also provides a mobile device. One embodiment of the mobile device includes a back panel and a camera mounting structure according to any of the above embodiments, with a mounting bracket accommodated on one side of the back panel. Further details are also available in the following documents. Figures 1 to 4In this embodiment, the camera mounting structure 10 includes a mounting bracket 100, which is used to accommodate one side of the back panel. The mounting bracket 100 has a groove 101 on the side away from the back panel so that at least the periphery of the mounting bracket 100 forms a reinforcing edge 100a. The intersection of the outer peripheral wall of the reinforcing edge 100a and the side away from the back panel of the reinforcing edge 100a has a chamfered structure 100b. The bottom of the groove 101 has at least one camera hole 102 and at least one lamp hole 103.

[0032] The aforementioned mobile device employs a camera mounting structure, which effectively improves the assembly stability of the mobile device.

[0033] Please see Figure 5 In one embodiment, the back panel includes a hardened layer, a metallic film, an adhesive layer, a polycarbonate layer, and a bottom cover oil film layer, which are sequentially stacked together. The mounting bracket is housed in the bottom cover oil film layer, meaning that the metallic film is directly adhered to the polycarbonate layer instead of an electroplated metal layer, achieving the same high-gloss effect for the back panel. However, directly adhering the metallic film to the polycarbonate layer is simpler than electroplating, effectively improving the manufacturing efficiency of mobile devices. Further, the metallic film is a Picasus reflective film. Further, the adhesive layer is a UV adhesive layer. Further, the back panel manufacturing process is as follows: Picasus film → roll-to-roll coating with hardening liquid → roll-to-roll application of two films → cutting sheet material (PC → logo → bottom cover) → UV adhesive bonding → CNC processing.

[0034] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has at least the following advantages: The camera mounting structure 10 of this utility model has a groove 101 on the side of the mounting bracket 100 away from the back plate, so that the position of the mounting bracket 100 not occupied by the groove 101 forms a reinforcing edge 100a, so that the reinforcing edge 100a is at least the periphery of the mounting bracket 100. At least one camera hole 102 and at least one lamp hole 103 are provided at the bottom of the groove 101, which improves the overall structural strength and deformation resistance of the mounting bracket 100. Furthermore, the intersection of the outer peripheral wall of the reinforcing edge 100a and the side of the reinforcing edge 100a away from the back plate is provided with a chamfer structure 100b, which effectively reduces the stress peak at the periphery of the reinforcing edge 100a, reduces the generation of microcracks on the mounting bracket 100, and further improves the installation stability of the camera.

[0035] The above embodiments only illustrate several implementation methods of this utility model, and their descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model patent should be determined by the appended claims.
