Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of camera equipment technology, and in particular to a lens blocking component and electronic equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Many internet-connected electronic devices nowadays have built-in cameras for taking photos or recording videos. These devices typically control the camera's on / off state via a software app. However, this software-controlled camera access is vulnerable to exploitation by hackers and other malicious actors who can infiltrate systems and control the camera to take photos or videos, thus violating users' privacy.

[0003] Therefore, some electronic devices use lens occupants to cover the camera when it is not in use, making it visually apparent that the camera is not working. However, in these technologies, the lens occupants are relatively complex in structure and occupy a large amount of space, which is not conducive to the miniaturization of the overall structure of the electronic device. Utility Model Content

[0004] This utility model provides a lens blocking component and an electronic device, which can make the lens blocking component more compact and reduce the space occupied.

[0005] This utility model discloses a lens blocking assembly, including: a fixed frame, a rotating disk, and multiple baffles. The rotating disk is rotatably connected to the fixed frame. The fixed frame has a first through hole, and the rotating disk has a second through hole corresponding to the first through hole. The fixed frame is provided with multiple limiting posts, and the multiple baffles are rotatably connected to the multiple limiting posts one by one. The rotating disk is also provided with multiple clearance grooves and multiple guide grooves, and the multiple clearance grooves are provided to the multiple limiting posts one by one. Each baffle is also provided with a holding part, and the multiple holding parts are engaged with the multiple guide grooves one by one. When the rotating disk is rotated, the baffles can be rotated inward to lock in place and block the second through hole through the guide grooves, or rotated outward to avoid the second through hole.

[0006] Optionally, the baffle includes an extension, a positioning hole at one end of the extension, and a blocking part at the other end of the extension. The retaining part is located on one side of the connection between the extension and the blocking part. The baffle is rotatably connected to the limiting post through the positioning hole, and the blocking part is used to block or avoid the second through hole.

[0007] Optionally, the blocking part is provided with an interlocking structure, which can interlock with each other when the blocking parts abut against each other.

[0008] Optionally, the engagement structure includes mating flanges and grooves.

[0009] Optionally, the limiting post includes a first connecting segment and a second connecting segment connected to each other, the diameter of the first connecting segment is larger than the diameter of the second connecting segment, the first connecting segment is connected to the fixing frame, and the positioning hole is connected to the second connecting segment.

[0010] Optionally, a receiving groove is provided on one side of the fixing frame, the rotating disk is received in the receiving groove, and the baffle is located on the side of the rotating disk away from the fixing frame.

[0011] Optionally, the fixing frame is provided with a first marking area, and the rotating disk is provided with a second marking area. When the first marking area corresponds to the second marking area, the baffle is positioned to block the second through hole.

[0013] Optionally, multiple clearance grooves are located on the same circumference, and the guide groove is an outwardly expanding arc-shaped groove.

[0014] This utility model also discloses an electronic device, including the lens blocking component described in any one of the above claims.

[0015] The beneficial effects of the lens blocking assembly and electronic device provided in this embodiment are as follows: Through a rotating disk rotatably connected to a fixed frame, the guide groove on the rotating disk and the retaining part on the baffle cooperate to achieve the rotation of the baffle relative to the limiting post. Depending on the direction of rotation of the rotating disk, the baffle can rotate inward to lock and block the second through-hole, or rotate outward to avoid the second through-hole, thus achieving mechanical blocking or avoidance of the camera. This effectively prevents the camera from being illegally turned on and filmed, greatly improving the user's personal privacy and security, and solving the privacy leakage risks inherent in software control methods. Furthermore, the lens blocking assembly requires relatively few components to achieve the above-mentioned method, with a compact layout, greatly simplifying the overall structure of the lens blocking assembly. At the same time, this simple structural design significantly reduces the space occupied by the lens blocking assembly inside the electronic device, providing favorable conditions for the miniaturization of the overall structure of the electronic device.

[0018] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. The preferred embodiments of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0019] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, this utility model embodiment provides a lens blocking assembly 100, including: a fixing frame 110, a rotating disk 120, and multiple baffles 130. The rotating disk 120 is rotatably connected to the fixing frame 110. The fixing frame 110 has a first through hole 112, and the rotating disk 120 has a second through hole 122 corresponding to the first through hole 112. The fixing frame 110 is provided with multiple limiting posts 114, and the multiple baffles 130 rotate one-to-one with the multiple limiting posts 114. The rotating disk 120 is also provided with multiple clearance grooves 124 and multiple guide grooves 126. The multiple clearance grooves 124 are correspondingly set with multiple limit posts 114. Each baffle 130 is also provided with a holding part 135. The multiple holding parts 135 are correspondingly locked with the multiple guide grooves 126. When the rotating disk 120 is rotated, the baffle 130 can be driven to rotate inward to lock and block the second through hole 122 through the guide grooves 126, or rotate outward to avoid the second through hole 122.

[0020] Specifically, the mounting bracket 110 provides the necessary connection base for the rotating disk 120, ensuring the stability of the interconnection. The first through hole 112 on the mounting bracket 110 and the second through hole 122 on the rotating disk 120 corresponding to the first through hole 112 provide the necessary channel conditions for the camera's shooting function, avoiding obstruction of the camera's field of view. In addition, the retaining part 135 on the baffle 130 is engaged with the guide groove 126 on the rotating disk 120. When the rotating disk 120 is rotated, due to the engaging cooperation between the retaining part 135 and the guide groove 126, the rotational motion of the rotating disk 120 can be converted into the movement of the retaining part 135 within the guide groove 126, thereby driving the baffle 130 to rotate around the limiting post 114 as an axis. When the baffle 130 rotates inward to engage, the multiple baffles 130 cooperate to block the second through hole 122 on the rotating disk 120, thereby preventing light from reaching the camera through the second through hole 122 and thus shielding the camera. When the baffle 130 rotates outward, it moves away from the area of ​​the second through hole 122, avoiding the second through hole 122. At this time, light can pass normally through the first through hole 112 and the second through hole 122, and the camera can take pictures or record videos normally. Multiple clearance slots 124 are correspondingly arranged with multiple limiting posts 114 to prevent collisions or interference between the limiting posts 114 and the rotating disk 120 during rotation, ensuring smooth rotation of the rotating disk 120.

[0021] The lens blocking assembly 100 provided in this application embodiment uses a rotating disk 120 rotatably connected to a fixing bracket 110. When the rotating disk 120 rotates, the guide groove 126 on the rotating disk 120 and the retaining part 135 on the baffle 130 cooperate to achieve rotation of the baffle 130 relative to the limiting post 114. Depending on the rotation direction of the rotating disk 120, the baffle 130 can rotate inward to lock and block the second through hole 122, or rotate outward to avoid the second through hole 122, thus achieving mechanical blocking or avoidance of the camera. This effectively prevents the camera from being illegally turned on and filmed, greatly improving the user's personal privacy and security, and solving the privacy leakage risks inherent in software control methods. Furthermore, the lens blocking assembly 100 requires relatively few components to achieve the above-mentioned method, with a compact layout, greatly simplifying the overall structure of the lens blocking assembly 100. At the same time, this simple structural design significantly reduces the space occupied by the lens blocking assembly 100 inside the electronic device, providing favorable conditions for the miniaturization of the overall structure of the electronic device.

[0022] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, the baffle 130 includes an extension 132, a positioning hole 133 provided at one end of the extension 132, and a blocking part 134 provided at the other end of the extension 132. The holding part 135 is located on one side of the connection between the extension 132 and the blocking part 134. The baffle 130 is rotatably connected to the limiting post 114 through the positioning hole 133, and the blocking part 134 is used to block or avoid the second through hole 122.

[0023] Specifically, the length, width, and thickness of the extension 132 need to be rationally designed according to the overall structure and spatial layout of the entire lens blocking assembly 100 to ensure that the baffle 130 does not interfere with other components during rotation and moves the blocking part 134 to a different relative position from the second through hole 122. The baffle 130 is rotatably connected to the limiting post 114 on the fixing bracket 110 through the positioning hole 133, which simplifies the connection, improves the convenience of assembly, and saves space. In addition, the specific structural form of the blocking part 134 is not limited in this embodiment. As long as the blocking parts 134 of multiple baffles 130 can be spliced ​​together when the baffle 130 rotates inward to completely cover the second through hole 122, thereby effectively blocking the passage of light; and when the baffle 130 rotates outward, the blocking part 134 can leave the area of ​​the second through hole 122 without affecting the normal passage of light.

[0024] like Figure 6 As shown, the blocking part 134 is provided with an engagement structure 136, and the engagement structure 136 can engage with each other when the blocking parts 134 come into contact with each other.

[0025] Specifically, the interlocking structure 136 is designed to ensure a tighter fit between the blocking portions 134 of the multiple baffles 130 when the baffles 130 are positioned to block the second through hole 122. This effectively eliminates gaps between the blocking portions 134, forming a complete and sealed blocking surface, significantly improving the sealing performance and preventing light from entering through gaps. This ensures the camera cannot capture images when blocked, further enhancing user privacy and security. Furthermore, it is less prone to displacement or loosening due to external vibrations, collisions, or other unexpected factors, thus enhancing the overall stability of the baffles 130 when blocked.

[0026] In an optional embodiment of this application, the engagement structure 136 includes a mating flange and a groove.

[0027] For example, in practical applications, a protrusion can be provided on the edge of a blocking portion 134, and a groove that can mate with the protrusion can be provided at the corresponding position of an adjacent blocking portion 134. When the blocking portions 134 abut against each other, the protrusion can be embedded in the groove to achieve mutual engagement. It should be noted that the engagement structure 136 on different blocking portions 134 can be different. Only a protruding edge or a groove can be provided on the stop portion, or the protruding edge and the groove can be combined to ensure the fit between them.

[0028] like Figure 4 As shown, the limiting post 114 includes a first connecting section 1142 and a second connecting section 1144 that are connected to each other. The diameter of the first connecting section 1142 is larger than the diameter of the second connecting section 1144. The first connecting section 1142 is connected to the fixing frame 110, and the positioning hole 133 is connected to the second connecting section 1144.

[0029] Specifically, the first connecting segment 1142 has a larger diameter, providing a larger contact area and stronger connection when connected to the fixed frame 110, effectively improving the connection stability between the limiting post 114 and the fixed frame 110. The stepped surface formed between the first connecting segment 1142 and the second connecting segment 1144 acts as an axial limit, effectively restricting the movement of the baffle 130 in the axial direction. This prevents the baffle 130 from approaching the rotating disk 120 without restriction, thus avoiding frictional resistance between the baffle 130 and the rotating disk 120 due to contact, ensuring smooth cooperation between them.

[0030] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a receiving groove 116 is provided on one side of the fixing frame 110, the rotating disk 120 is received in the receiving groove 116, and the baffle 130 is located on the side of the rotating disk 120 away from the fixing frame 110.

[0031] Specifically, the accommodating groove 116 allows the rotating disk 120 to be embedded within the fixing frame 110, rather than protruding from its surface, significantly reducing the overall height of the rotating disk 120 combined with the fixing frame 110. Furthermore, the accommodating groove 116 within the fixing frame 110 provides some protection for the rotating disk 120 and allows for rotational connection between the rotating disk 120 and the fixing frame 110 through the engagement of the edge of the groove 116 with the outer ring of the rotating disk 120. Simultaneously, the baffle 130, located on the side of the rotating disk 120 away from the fixing frame 110, makes the entire lens shielding assembly 100 more compact, with clear hierarchical distinctions between components, facilitating assembly and maintenance.

[0032] like Figure 2As shown, a first marking area 118 is provided on the fixed frame 110, and a second marking area 128 is provided on the rotating disk 120. When the first marking area 118 corresponds to the second marking area 128, the baffle 130 is positioned to block the second through hole 122.

[0033] Specifically, the correspondence between the first marking area 118 and the second marking area 128 provides a certain reference for the relative positions of the fixing bracket 110 and the rotating disk 120. When the first marking area 118 and the second marking area 128 are observed to correspond, the user can stop rotating to ensure that the baffle 130 is in the fully blocked position, thus avoiding damage to the lens blocking assembly 100 caused by excessive force.

[0034] In an optional embodiment of this application, the number of baffles 130 is 3 or 4.

[0035] Specifically, the design of three or four baffles 130 ensures that the baffles 130 are subjected to balanced forces during rotation, avoiding motion interference caused by an excessive number of baffles 130, or excessive load and easy damage to a single baffle 130 due to an insufficient number. At the same time, both numbers of baffles 130 can achieve complete shielding of the second through hole 122 through a reasonable distribution, without blind spots caused by an insufficient number of baffles 130, further ensuring the reliability of shielding and effectively protecting user privacy.

[0036] like Figure 5 As shown, multiple clearance grooves 124 are located on the same circumference, and the guide groove 126 is an outwardly expanding arc-shaped groove.

[0037] Specifically, multiple clearance grooves 124 are arranged in a circular array relative to the center of the rotating disk 120. By setting the guide groove 126 as an outwardly expanding arc groove, its trajectory matches the movement trajectory of the clamping part 135 on the baffle 130. This can convert the rotational motion of the rotating disk 120 into the rotational motion of the baffle 130, thereby controlling the inward or outward rotation of the baffle 130 and improving the smoothness of the rotation of the rotating disk 120.

[0038] This utility model also discloses an electronic device, including the lens blocking assembly 100 in the foregoing embodiments. This electronic device has the same structure and beneficial effects as the lens blocking assembly 100 in the foregoing embodiments. The structure and beneficial effects of the lens blocking assembly 100 have been described in detail in the foregoing embodiments and will not be repeated here.

[0039] It should be understood that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Those skilled in the art can modify the technical solutions described in the above embodiments, or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features; and all such modifications and substitutions should fall within the protection scope of the appended claims of this utility model.
