[0010] The embodiments of the "electronic device and integrated camera" disclosed herein will be described below with reference to specific examples. Those skilled in the art will be able to understand the advantages and effects of the present invention from the disclosed content. The present invention can be implemented or applied through other different specific embodiments, and the various detailed descriptions herein can be modified and changed in various ways without departing from the spirit of the invention, based on different viewpoints and applications. It should also be noted in advance that the drawings of the present invention are for illustrative purposes only and are not based on actual dimensions. The technical content relating to the present invention will be described in more detail using the following embodiments, but the disclosed content is not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0011] In this specification, terms such as “first,” “second,” etc., may be used to describe various elements, but it should be understood that these elements should not be limited by these terms. These terms are primarily used to distinguish one element from another, or one feature from another. Furthermore, the term “or” in this specification should be understood to include any one or more of the items listed in relation to it, depending on the actual context.

[0012] [Example 1] As shown in Figures 1 to 6, Embodiment 1 of the present invention is shown. As shown in Figures 1 to 5, this embodiment discloses an electronic device 1000. The electronic device 1000 includes a display 200, an integrated camera 100 installed in the display 200, and a first cable 300 electrically connected to the display 200 and the integrated camera 100. It should be noted that the electronic device 1000 is exemplified as a tablet computer in Figure 1 of this embodiment, and the integrated camera 100 is used in combination with the display 200 and the first cable 300, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0013] For example, in other embodiments not shown in the present invention, the integrated camera 100 may be used alone (e.g., sold) or in combination with other components (for example, the integrated camera 100 may be applied to a smart doorbell lock, a wearable camera, or smart glasses). Below, the structure of each component of the electronic device 1000 according to this embodiment will be described first, and then the connection relationships between each component will be described as appropriate.

[0014] The display 200 is substantially rectangular and has a first long side 201 and a second long side 202 that are parallel to each other. The display 200 also includes an earth area 203 and a first signal-transmitting area 204 located on the first long side 201. The specific structure of the display 200 can be adjusted and modified in this embodiment according to actual requirements.

[0015] For example, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the display 200 includes a plastic case 200a and a metal element 200b (e.g., copper foil) disposed within the plastic case 200a. The ground area 203 may be located on the metal element 200b, and the first signal transmission area 204 may be located on the plastic case 200a. Alternatively, in other embodiments not illustrated in the present invention, the display 200 may include a metal case and a plastic window disposed on the metal case. The ground area 203 may be located on the metal case, and the first signal transmission area 204 may be located on the plastic window.

[0016] As shown in FIGS. 1 to 5, in the present embodiment, the integrated camera 100 includes a long circuit board 1, an imaging module 2 mounted on the long circuit board 1, a first tuning element 4a connected to the imaging module 2, a first metal layer 3 formed on the long circuit board 1, a first ground element 5a connected to the first metal layer 3, and a first impedance matching unit 6a mounted on the first metal layer 3. However, the present invention is not limited thereto. For example, in other embodiments not illustrated in the present invention, the integrated camera 100 may omit the first impedance matching unit 6a according to actual requirements.

[0017] In the present embodiment, the long circuit board 1 is disposed adjacent along the first long side 201 of the display 200. That is, the long circuit board 1 is substantially parallel to the first long side 201 and adjacent to the ground area 203. Here, the long circuit board 1 has an imaging arrangement segment 11 and a first antenna arrangement segment 12 connected to one end of the imaging arrangement segment 11, and the first antenna arrangement segment 12 faces the first signal transmission area 204.

[0018] The imaging module 2 is implemented in the imaging arrangement segment 11. Further, the imaging module 2 includes a camera unit 21 and a shield case 22. Here, the camera unit 21 corresponds to a substantially central portion of the first long side 201, and the shield case 22 is configured to enclose a plurality of electronic components (not shown).

[0019] In this embodiment, the imaging module 2 further includes a first grounding portion 23. The first grounding portion 23 may be any grounding structure installed in the imaging arrangement segment 11 and adjacent to the first antenna arrangement segment 12. For example, the first grounding portion 23 may include the shield case 22 and a grounding conductor to which the shield case 22 is connected. Here, the imaging module 2 can be electrically connected to the grounding area 203 via the first grounding portion 23 and the first tuning element 4a. For example, the first tuning element 4a may be a copper foil, and may connect the first grounding portion 23 and the grounding area 203.

[0020] The first metal layer 3 is formed in the first antenna arrangement segment 12 and may be located on the same surface of the long circuit board 1 as the imaging module 2, but the present invention is not limited thereto. For example, in other embodiments not shown in the present invention, the first metal layer 3 and the imaging module 2 may be located on two opposite surfaces of the long circuit board 1, respectively.

[0021] Furthermore, the first metal layer 3 has a first common grounding end 31 connected to the first grounding portion 23 and a first grounding end 32 away from the first common grounding end 31. Here, the connection method between the first common grounding end 31 and the first grounding portion 23 can be adjusted and changed according to actual requirements, and the present invention is not limited herein.

[0022] Furthermore, a first inner slot 33 is formed in the first metal layer 3, located between the first common earth end 31 and the first earth end 32. The first inner slot 33 has a first open port 331 and a first communication port 332. Here, the first open port 331 is adjacent to the first common earth end 31 and the first communication port 332 is adjacent to the first earth end 32, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0023] In this embodiment, the first metal layer 3 may include two L-shaped radiating segments 35. Each L-shaped radiating segment 35 has a long segment 351 and a short segment 352 perpendicularly connected to one end of the long segment 351. The two L-shaped radiating segments 35 are offset from each other (for example, the long segment 351 of any one of the L-shaped radiating segments 35 is located inside the other L-shaped radiating segment 35, and the short segments 352 of the two L-shaped radiating segments 35 are spaced apart from each other).

[0024] In this embodiment, the short segments 352 of the two L-shaped radiating segments 35 each have the first common ground terminal 31 and the first ground terminal 32. One of the L-shaped radiating segments 35 having the first common ground terminal 31 defines the first open port 331 together with the long segment 351 of the other L-shaped radiating segment 35. On the other hand, one of the L-shaped radiating segments 35 having the first ground terminal 32 defines the first communication port 332 together with the long segment 351 of the other L-shaped radiating segment 35.

[0025] The first ground element 5a (for example, copper foil) connects the first ground terminal 32 and the ground area 203. As a result, the ground area 203, the first ground section 23, the first tuning element 4a, the first metal layer 3, and the first ground element 5a jointly surround the first outer slot 34. Furthermore, the first outer slot 34 communicates with the first communication port 332, thereby constituting the first slot antenna S1 together with the first inner slot 33.

[0026] The first cable 300 is installed inside the display 200. The first cable 300 includes a first feed line 301, a first outer conductor 302 surrounding the outside of the first feed line 301, and a first insulating sleeve 303 surrounding the inside of the first outer conductor 302. Here, the first feed line 301 connects the display 200 and the first common ground terminal 31, and the first outer conductor 302 is connected to the first ground terminal 32. As a result, the first slot antenna S1 can selectively generate signal resonance at either a first frequency or a second frequency higher than the first frequency.

[0027] Furthermore, the first impedance matching unit 6a (e.g., a capacitor and / or inductor) is positioned across the portion of the first inner slot 33 between the first open port 331 and the first communication port 332 (for example, the first impedance matching unit 6a connects across the two long segment segments 351 of the two L-shaped radiating segments 35). This optimizes the bandwidth and efficiency of the first slot antenna S1.

[0028] As described above, in this embodiment, the electronic device 1000 can be configured by arranging the imaging module 2 and the first metal layer 3 on the long circuit board with a common ground, and further combining the first tuning element 4a and the first ground element 5a to form the first slot antenna S1. In this way, it is not necessary to secure clearance between the imaging module 2 and the first slot antenna S1, effectively reducing the overall size of the integrated camera 100, and simplifying the layout and design of the first slot antenna S1.

[0029] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the electronic device 1000 can effectively resist neighboring signal interference by forming the serpentine first slot antenna S1 through a combination of multiple components. In addition, the first tuning element 4a is selectively connected to one of several different locations on the first ground section 23 depending on the first or second frequency, and the length and operating frequency band of the first slot antenna S1 can be effectively changed by adjusting the distance between the first tuning element 4a and the first common ground terminal 31.

[0030] It should be noted that although the electronic device 1000 is described as the tablet computer in Figures 1 to 5 of this embodiment, the present invention is not limited thereto. For example, as shown in Figure 6, the electronic device 1000 may be a notebook computer. The electronic device 1000 includes an input host 500 (e.g., a keyboard module). The display 200 is preferably pivotally connected to the input host 500 by the second long side 202. This effectively reduces the possibility of interference between the integrated camera 100 and the first slot antenna S1.

[0031] [Example 2] As shown in Figures 7 to 9, Embodiment 2 of the present invention is shown. Since this embodiment is similar to Embodiment 1 described above, the commonalities between the two embodiments will not be repeated in detail. The differences between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 described above are generally as follows.

[0032] In this embodiment, the display 200 includes a second signal-transparent area 205. The first signal-transparent area 204 and the second signal-transparent area 205 are located at opposite ends of the first long side 201, respectively. It should be noted that the shape and definition of the second signal-transparent area 205 are substantially the same as those of the first signal-transparent area 204, and therefore details will not be repeated in this embodiment.

[0033] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the integrated camera 100 has a mirror-symmetric structure, but the present invention is not limited thereto. Here, the elongated circuit board 1 has a second antenna arrangement segment 13 connected to the other end of the imaging arrangement segment 11, and the second antenna arrangement segment 13 faces the second signal transmission area 205.

[0034] The imaging module 2 has a second grounding section 24. The second grounding section 24 is provided on the imaging arrangement segment 11 and may be any grounding structure adjacent to the second antenna arrangement segment 13. For example, the second grounding section 24 may include a portion of the shield case 22 adjacent to the second antenna arrangement segment 13 and a grounding conductor connected thereto, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0035] In addition, in this embodiment, the integrated camera 100 further includes a second tuning element 4b, a second metal layer 7, a second ground element 5b, and a second impedance matching unit 6b. Here, the second tuning element 4b connects the second ground section 24 and the ground area 203. The second tuning element 4b is selectively connected to one of several locations on the second ground section 24 (for example, Figure 8 or Figure 9) depending on the first or second frequency, and adjusts the distance between the second tuning element 4b and the second common ground terminal 71.

[0036] Furthermore, the second metal layer 7 is formed on the second antenna arrangement segment 13. The second metal layer 7 has a second common earth end 71 connected to the second earth section 24 and a second earth end 72 located away from the second common earth end 71. Here, the second metal layer 7 has a second inner slot 73 located between the second common earth end 71 and the second earth end 72. The second inner slot 73 has a second open port 731 and a second communication port 732.

[0037] The second ground element 5b connects the second ground terminal 72 and the ground area 203. As a result, the ground area 203, the second ground section 24, the second tuning element 4b, the second metal layer 7, and the second ground element 5b jointly surround the second outer slot 74. Furthermore, the second outer slot 74 communicates with the second communication port 732, thereby constituting the second slot antenna S2 together with the second inner slot 73.

[0038] The electronic device 1000 includes a second cable 400 installed inside the display 200. The second cable 400 includes a second feed line 401, a second outer conductor 402 surrounding the outside of the second feed line 401, and a second insulating sleeve 403 surrounding the inside of the second outer conductor 402. The second feed line 401 connects the display 200 and the second common ground terminal 71, and the second outer conductor 402 is connected to the second ground terminal 72.

[0039] The second impedance matching unit 6b (e.g., a capacitor and / or inductor) is positioned across the portion of the second inner slot 73 between the second open port 731 and the second communication port 732, but the present invention is not limited thereto. For example, in other embodiments not shown in the present invention, the second impedance matching unit 6b may be omitted depending on the actual requirements.

[0040] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the structure and corresponding connection relationships of the second slot antenna S2, the second tuning element 4b, and the second cable 400 are substantially the same as those of the first slot antenna S1, the first tuning element 4a, and the first cable 300 in Embodiment 1, so the details will not be repeated here.

[0041] [Example 3] As shown in Figures 10 and 11, Embodiment 3 of the present invention is shown. Since this embodiment is similar to Embodiment 1 described above, the details of the commonalities between the two embodiments will not be repeated. The differences between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 described above are generally as follows.

[0042] In this embodiment, the integrated camera 100 further includes two three-dimensional extension segments 8. Here, the two three-dimensional extension segments 8 are each extended in the direction away from the elongated circuit board 1 in the two L-shaped radiating segments 35. The two three-dimensional extension segments 8 are also spaced apart from each other in the portion corresponding to the first inner slot 33. This effectively improves the radiating area of ​​the first metal layer 3.

[0043] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the two three-dimensional extension segments 8 are formed by extending from the long segment 351 and the short segment 352, respectively, belonging to different L-shaped radiation segments 35, away from the earth area 203. The two three-dimensional extension segments 8 are also spaced apart from each other in the area corresponding to the first open port 331. On the other hand, the three-dimensional extension segment 8 extending from the short segment 352 may be further connected to the shield case 22. However, the present invention is not limited thereto. That is, in other embodiments not shown in the present invention, the structure of the two three-dimensional extension segments 8 can be adjusted and modified according to actual requirements. [Beneficial effects from the examples]

In this way, it is not necessary to secure clearance between the imaging module and the first slot antenna, effectively reducing the overall size of the integrated camera, and simplifying the layout and design of the first slot antenna.

[0045] Furthermore, the electronic device can effectively resist neighboring signal interference by forming the serpentine first slot antenna through a combination of multiple components. In addition, the first tuning element can be selectively connected to one of several different locations on the first ground, and the length and operating frequency bandwidth of the first slot antenna can be effectively changed by adjusting the distance between the first tuning element and the first common ground terminal.
