[0035] The embodiment of the present application provides an electronic device, as shown in FIG. 1, comprising a body 100, a shell 200, a decoration piece 300, a motion monitoring sensing component 400, and a processing circuit 500.
[0036] The shell 200 is arranged opposite to the body 100. The shell 200 is arranged opposite to the body 100, which means that after the shell 200 is connected with the body 100, the shell 200 is located on one side of the body 100. For example, the shell 200 can be the back cover of the electronic device. The electronic device further comprises a display screen, and the back cover and the display screen can form a mounting space to accommodate the body 100, and the shell 200 is located on the side of the body 100 away from the display screen.
[0037] The decoration piece 300 is arranged on the side of the shell 200 away from the body 100 and is rotatably connected with the shell 200. After the shell 200 is connected with the body 100, the user can conveniently rotate the decoration piece 300. For example, when the electronic device is a mobile phone, the user can rotate the decoration piece 300 with the index finger and the middle finger when holding the mobile phone with one hand, which is convenient to operate.
[0038] The motion monitoring sensing component 400 is arranged on the body 100 and is used to output a sensing signal representing the position change of the decoration piece 300 relative to the body 100. The motion monitoring sensing component 400 refers to a sensing device that can detect the rotation of the decoration piece 300. Since the relative position between the shell 200 and the body 100 does not change, the decoration piece 300 is arranged on the shell 200, so that the relative position between the decoration piece 300 and the body 100 changes during the rotation of the decoration piece 300. The type of sensing signal is related to the type of motion monitoring sensing component 400, but each type of sensing signal can represent the relative position change between the decoration piece 300 and the body 100.
[0039] The processing circuit 500 is connected with the motion monitoring sensing component 400. The processing circuit 500 is configured to execute an electronic device regulation action matched with the sensing signal according to the sensing signal. The processing circuit 500 refers to a circuit capable of recognizing the sensing signal and executing the electronic device regulation action. In different electronic devices, the form of the processing circuit 500 can be different, but as long as it can realize the function, it belongs to the protection scope of the present application. The sensing signal and the electronic device regulation action have a mapping relationship, which can be set when the electronic device is manufactured or customized by the user. The electronic device regulation action can be a background control operation for adjusting the function parameters of the electronic device.
[0040] In the embodiment, when the user uses the electronic device, the user can change the relative position of the decorative piece 300 on the shell 200 and the body 100 by rotating the decorative piece 300. In this process, the motion monitoring sensing component 400 detects the change of the relative position of the decorative piece 300 and the body 100, and outputs the sensing signal to the processing circuit 500 correspondingly. The processing circuit 500 can obtain the change amount of the relative position of the decorative piece 300 and the body 100 according to the received sensing signal, so as to determine the corresponding electronic device regulation action and execute the electronic device regulation action. That is, the user only needs to rotate the decorative piece 300 to realize the electronic device regulation, without the need of complex operations such as parameter setting on the screen and double-finger zooming, thereby improving the convenience of the user in operating the electronic device.
[0041] Especially for large-screen electronic devices, the user can hold the electronic device with the palm and operate the decorative piece 300 on the back of the shell 200 (the side of the shell 200 away from the body 100) at the same time, which is convenient to operate. In addition, during the operation of the decorative piece 300, the user can also observe the change of the content on the screen in real time. For example, when the electronic device regulation action is the focusing of the camera module 700, the user can observe the picture effect after focusing on the screen in real time while holding the electronic device and operating the focusing of the decorative piece 300, so as to quickly adjust to the effect required by the user and improve the regulation efficiency.
[0042] In one of the embodiments, the motion monitoring sensing component 400 is in contact with the decorative piece 300, and the contact position between the motion monitoring sensing component 400 and the decorative piece 300 changes during the change of the relative position of the decorative piece 300 and the body 100, so as to generate the sensing signal. That is, the sensing signal represents the change of the contact position between the motion monitoring sensing component 400 and the decorative piece 300, and the change of the contact position has a corresponding relationship with the change of the relative position of the decorative piece 300 and the body 100. Therefore, the sensing signal reflects the operation intention of the user on the electronic device, and the processing circuit 500 can regulate the electronic device based on the sensing signal, so as to realize the process simply and quickly and facilitate the user operation.
[0043] In one of the embodiments, the motion monitoring sensing component 400 is arranged apart from the decoration 300, and the physical parameter obtained by the motion monitoring sensing component 400 from the decoration 300 changes with the relative position change of the decoration 300 relative to the body 100, to generate a sensing signal.
[0044] The physical parameter refers to a parameter describing a physical characteristic of an object. The physical parameter obtained from the decoration 300 can be electric energy, or an image, a wave signal, etc., which are not limited herein. When the obtained physical parameter is electric energy, it should be understood that the change of the physical parameter herein refers to the change of the electric energy transmission between the motion monitoring sensing component 400 and the decoration 300, for example, the change of the transmission of electromagnetic waves, electric charges, etc., which further causes the change of the signals such as capacitance, inductance, magnetic field strength sensed by the motion monitoring sensing component 400. When the physical parameter is a wave signal, the physical parameter can refer to an ultrasonic wave signal, a light wave signal, etc. reflected by the decoration 300.
[0045] Specifically, during the rotation of the decoration 300, the rotation position of the motion monitoring sensing component 400 changes, and the obtained physical parameter also changes, which is transmitted to the processing circuit 500 in the form of a sensing signal. The sensing signal represents the operation intention of the user on the electronic device, and the processing circuit 500 can execute the electronic device regulation action corresponding to the sensing signal (i.e., the electronic device regulation action matching the operation intention of the user) based on the sensing signal. In this process, the user only needs to rotate the decoration 300 to achieve the regulation purpose of the electronic device, which is simple and convenient to operate.
[0046] In one of the embodiments, as shown in FIG. 1, the decoration 300 is provided with a magnetic member 310, the magnetic member 310 is used to generate a magnetic field, and the magnetic field strength of the magnetic field along the rotation direction of the decoration 300 changes according to a preset rule; the motion monitoring sensing component 400 includes a magnetic induction sensor 410, the magnetic induction sensor 410 outputs a sensing signal corresponding to the magnetic field strength according to the magnetic field sensed during the rotation of the decoration 300.
[0047] In this embodiment, the magnetic field strength of the magnetic field along the rotation direction of the decoration 300 changes according to a preset rule, which can mean that the magnetic field strengths at different rotation positions of the decoration 300 are different, or the magnetic field strengths at different rotation positions of the decoration 300 change according to a preset rule such as first increasing and then decreasing, first decreasing and then increasing, but the magnetic field strengths at certain interval positions are the same. No matter which kind of change of the magnetic field strength, the detection of the relative position change of the decoration 300 relative to the body 100 during the rotation of the decoration 300 can be realized. The preset rule can be stored in the processing circuit 500, so that the processing circuit 500 determines the rotation angle of the decoration 300 based on the sensing signal output by the magnetic induction sensor 410, and then executes the electronic device regulation action matching the sensing signal.
[0048] During the rotation of the decorative piece 300, the relative position of the magnetic piece 310 on the decorative piece 300 to the magnetic induction sensor 410 changes, so the magnetic field strength sensed by the magnetic induction sensor 410 changes accordingly, and the sensing signal output by the magnetic induction sensor 410 can reflect the change of the magnetic field strength. Based on this, after receiving the sensing signal, the processing circuit 500 can execute the electronic device control action corresponding to the sensing signal according to the mapping relationship between the sensing signal-magnetic field strength change- relative position change between the decorative piece 300 and the body 100-electronic device control action.
[0049] In one of the embodiments, as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the magnetic piece 310 includes first magnetic poles 311 and second magnetic poles 312 alternately arranged along the circumference of the decorative piece 300, and the polarities of the first magnetic poles 311 and the second magnetic poles 312 are opposite. When the first magnetic pole 311 is an N magnetic pole, the second magnetic pole 312 is an S magnetic pole (as shown in FIG. 2). When the first magnetic pole 311 is an S magnetic pole, the second magnetic pole 312 is an N magnetic pole. The decorative piece 300 can be a circular or elliptical decorative piece 300, and the first magnetic poles 311 and the second magnetic poles 312 with opposite polarities are alternately arranged along the circumference of the decorative piece 300. Therefore, when the decorative piece 300 rotates, the magnetic induction sensor 410 can sense the magnetic field change generated by the rotation of the decorative piece 300 and output a sensing signal, so that the processing circuit 500 determines and executes the electronic device control action corresponding to the sensing signal according to the sensing signal.
[0050] In one of the embodiments, the magnetic induction sensor 410 can be a Hall sensor, which can measure the strength, direction and polarity of the magnetic field. During the rotation of the decorative piece 300, the magnetic field in which the Hall sensor is located changes. For example, when the decorative piece 300 has N magnetic poles and S magnetic poles alternately arranged along the circumference, the Hall sensor can read the magnetic field change generated during the rotation of the decorative piece 300 and output an electrical signal representing the magnetic field change. The processing circuit 500 can calculate the NS period through which the decorative piece 300 rotates, the current magnetic field strength and direction according to the signal, so as to calculate the relative position change between the decorative piece 300 and the body 100, and then determine and execute the electronic device control action corresponding to the relative position change. For example, when the control action is focusing of the camera module 700, the processing circuit 500 controls the camera module 700 to adjust to the magnification corresponding to the rotation angle as the decorative piece 300 rotates, so as to realize focusing. By using the existing Hall sensor and other magnetic induction sensors 410 in the electronic device, the hardware cost can be reduced while realizing the function control of the decorative piece 300.
[0051] In one embodiment, the first magnetic pole 311 and the second magnetic pole 312 are in the same plane, for example, the decorative piece 300 is a whole circular shape, and the first magnetic pole 311 and the second magnetic pole 312 are alternately distributed on the decorative piece 300, as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2.
[0052] In one embodiment, the width of the first magnetic pole 311 and the second magnetic pole 312 are equal in the plane parallel to the circumferential direction, and the width direction is parallel to the circumferential direction. When the decorative piece 300 is a circular decorative piece 300, the equal width of the first magnetic pole 311 and the second magnetic pole 312 can be understood as that the width of the first magnetic pole 311 and the second magnetic pole 312 in the direction of the inner diameter circumference of the decorative piece 300 is equal. When the width of the first magnetic pole 311 and the second magnetic pole 312 is equal (as shown in FIG. 1), the magnetic field strength curve sensed by the magnetic induction sensor 410 during the rotation of the decorative piece 300 is a symmetrical periodic change (as shown in FIG. 2, the rotation direction is F), and the periodic XY-axis magnetic field strength (as shown in FIG. 3, the magnetic field distribution under the XYZ-axis magnetic field space coordinate system) can be converted into the tangent angle ARCTAN(Y / X), and the periodic tangent angle curve as shown in FIG. 4 can be obtained. It can be seen that in one period, the tangent angle can correspond to the relative displacement amount of the decorative piece 300 and the body 100 (the horizontal coordinate in the figure represents the rotation angle of the decorative piece 300). Therefore, when the user rotates the decorative piece 300, the Hall sensor only needs to calculate how many NS periods have passed, and according to the tangent angle as shown in FIG. 4, the initial position (the rotation angle of the decorative piece 300 at the initial position may be zero) and the stop position (the rotation angle corresponding to a stop position) can be calculated, and the rotation angle of the decorative piece 300 (the rotation angle of the stop position minus the rotation angle of the initial position) can be converted. This is conducive to speeding up the calculation speed and improving the control efficiency.
[0053] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5-FIG. 6, the decorative piece 300 includes a first metal strip 320, and the first metal strip 320 is rotatably connected with the shell 200. The motion monitoring sensor component 400 includes a second metal strip 420, the second metal strip 420 is electrically connected with the processing circuit 500, and the second metal strip 420 is oppositely arranged with the first metal strip 320. The second metal strip 420 outputs a sensing signal representing the relative position change between the first metal strip 320 and the second metal strip 420 during the rotation of the decorative piece 300.
[0054] The second metal strip 420 is fixed on the body 100, and the relative position between the second metal strip 420 and the body 100 is unchanged. Therefore, the relative position between the first metal strip 320 and the second metal strip 420 changes, which represents the relative position change between the decorative frame and the body 100. During the rotation of the decorative part 300, the relative position between the first metal strip 320 and the second metal strip 420 changes, and this change in the relative position causes the change of the sensing signal output by the second metal strip 420, such as the change of the electric signal such as capacitance and inductance. The processing circuit 500 can determine and perform the electronic device control action corresponding to the sensing signal received from the second metal strip 420 according to the sensing signal.
[0055] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5, the first metal strip 320 and the second metal strip 420 are both open-loop metal strips, and the first metal strip 320 and the second metal strip 420 are parallel and spaced apart on the same plane. The second metal strip 420 outputs a sensing signal corresponding to a capacitance value during the rotation of the decorative part 300. The second metal strip 420 can be fixedly installed on the body 100. For example, when the decorative part 300 is a decorative part 300 around the camera module 700, the second metal strip 420 can be fixedly arranged on the periphery of the camera module 700.
[0056] For two open-loop metal strips arranged in parallel and spaced apart, the main factor affecting the capacitance value is the relative area. During the rotation of the first metal strip 320, the relative area between the first metal strip 320 and the second metal strip 420 changes, which causes the change of the capacitance value between the first metal strip 320 and the second metal strip 420. The change of the capacitance value corresponds to the change of the relative area, and the change of the relative area is related to the angle of the rotation of the first metal strip 320. Based on this, the processing circuit 500 can determine and perform the electronic device control action matched with the sensing signal output by the second metal strip 420.
[0057] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG. 6, the first metal strip 320 and the second metal strip 420 are both closed-loop metal strips. The first metal strip 320 is connected to an alternating current signal. During the rotation of the first metal strip 320, the height of the first metal strip 320 relative to the plane of the second metal strip 420 changes. The second metal strip 420 outputs a sensing signal corresponding to the change of the induced current during the rotation of the decorative part 300.
[0058] The second metal strip 420 can be fixedly installed on the body 100 and has a fixed position relative to the body 100. The first metal strip 320 can be connected to an alternating current signal through a signal line. In the case that the first metal strip 320 is connected to the alternating current signal, the second metal strip 420 and the first metal strip 320 have mutual inductance. During rotation of the first metal strip 320, the height h of the first metal strip 320 relative to the plane in which the second metal strip 420 is located changes (as shown in FIG. 7). In the case that the alternating current signal is unchanged, the mutual inductance between the two closed-loop metal strips changes. Based on the change, the angle of rotation of the decorative part 300 (the angle of rotation of the first metal ring) can be determined. Therefore, the processing circuit 500 can determine and perform an electronic device control action according to a sensing signal representing a change in the induced current of the second metal strip 420. For example, a control action such as focusing. In the electronic device provided in the embodiments of the present application, the correspondence between the sensing signal and the electronic device control action can be defined in advance in the processing circuit 500. For example, when the sensing signal reflects that the decorative part 300 rotates clockwise (for example, from the perspective of facing the side of the shell 200 away from the body 100), the electronic device control action corresponds to enlarging the focal length of the camera module 700, and the enlargement ratio is positively correlated with the clockwise rotation angle of the decorative part 300. The sensing signal reflecting that the decorative part 300 rotates counterclockwise (for example, from the perspective of facing the side of the shell 200 away from the body 100) can also be defined, and the electronic device control action corresponds to reducing the focal length of the camera module 700, and the reduction ratio is positively correlated with the counterclockwise rotation angle of the decorative part 300. Of course, this is only an example. The correspondence between the sensing signal and the electronic device control action can be configured based on user habits in advance, or can be defined by the user.
[0059] In one of the embodiments, the processing circuit 500 is further configured to provide an alternating current signal. The frequency of the alternating current signal is different from the communication frequency of the electronic device. By distinguishing the communication frequency of the electronic device, interference signals during execution of the electronic device control action can be excluded. The frequency of the metal strip through which the alternating current signal is input can be set to a certain agreed frequency, so as to quickly identify whether it is an interference signal according to the induced current.
[0060] In one of the embodiments, the processing circuit 500 is further configured to provide an alternating current signal with a frequency changing according to a preset rule. The preset rule can be configured in advance and stored in the processing circuit 500. After receiving the sensing signal output by the second metal strip 420, the processing circuit 500 can analyze the induced current (which should also change according to the preset rule) to determine whether it is an interference signal, thereby improving the response accuracy during use of the decorative part 300 to control the electronic device.
[0061] In one of the embodiments, the decorative piece 300 is provided with an annular grating structure 330, as shown in FIGS. 8-9.
[0062] The motion monitoring sensor component 400 is electrically connected to the processing circuit 500, and is configured to project an emission wave to the annular grating structure 330, and output a sensing signal according to a reflection wave of the annular grating structure 330 received during rotation of the decorative piece 300.
[0063] As shown in FIG. 10, the motion monitoring sensor component 400 is arranged at a position such that the emission wave can be projected to one grating of the annular grating structure 330, and the reflection wave of the grating can be received (F in the figure is the rotation direction of the decorative piece). The smaller the width of each grating of the annular grating structure 330, the higher the accuracy of the processing circuit 500 in determining the relative position change between the decorative piece 300 and the body 100 based on the sensing signal, and vice versa. However, the width of each grating should not be too small, so as to avoid failure of the emission and reflection of the wave. In an optional embodiment, the width of each grating of the annular grating structure 330 is equal. At this time, the processing circuit 500 can calculate the number of reflection waves based on the sensing signal, and the number of reflection waves is related to the angle of rotation of the annular grating structure 330, so as to determine the rotation angle of the decorative piece 300, and further determine the control action of the electronic device matched with the rotation angle. For example, the size of the rotation angle can be related to the magnification of the focusing of the camera module 700, such as a linear relationship.
[0064] In one of the embodiments, the motion monitoring sensor component 400 includes one of a photoelectric sensor and an ultrasonic sensor.
[0065] When the motion monitoring sensing component 400 comprises a photoelectric sensor, the photoelectric sensor can emit light waves to the annular grating structure 330. During the rotation of the annular grating structure 330, the light waves projected by the photoelectric sensor hit the grids that have rotated through the light projection position in turn, and are reflected to the photoelectric sensor through the grids. The sensing signal output by the photoelectric sensor can reflect the number of times of receiving the reflected light waves, i.e., the number of grids that the annular grating structure 330 on the decoration piece 300 has rotated through. When the structure is determined, the rotation angle corresponding to how many grids is determined. Based on this, the processing circuit 500 can determine the rotation angle of the decoration piece 300 according to the sensing signal, and determine the electronic device control action matched with the rotation angle.
[0066] When the motion monitoring sensing component 400 comprises an ultrasonic sensor, the ultrasonic sensor can emit ultrasonic waves to the annular grating structure 330. During the rotation of the annular grating structure 330, the ultrasonic waves projected by the ultrasonic sensor hit the grids that have rotated through the light projection position in turn, and are reflected to the ultrasonic sensor through the grids. The sensing signal output by the ultrasonic sensor can reflect the number of times of receiving the reflected ultrasonic waves, i.e., the number of grids that the annular grating structure 330 on the decoration piece 300 has rotated through. When the structure is determined, the rotation angle corresponding to how many grids is determined. Based on this, the processing circuit 500 can determine the rotation angle of the decoration piece 300 according to the sensing signal, and determine the electronic device control action matched with the rotation angle.
[0067] In one of the embodiments, as shown in FIG. 11, the motion monitoring sensing component 400 comprises a camera 430. The camera 430 is distinguished from the camera module 700 in the electronic device for shooting pictures, and can be an additional functional camera 430.
[0068] Among them, the camera 430 is arranged on the body 100, so that the relative position between the camera 430 and the body 100 is unchanged. In addition, the shooting range of the camera 430 covers the area where the decoration piece 300 is located, and the camera 430 outputs a sensing signal corresponding to the change of the image shooting position of the decoration piece 300 during the rotation of the decoration piece 300. The processing circuit 500 can determine the image change condition according to the sensing signal, and the image change condition and the rotation angle of the decoration piece 300 have a correlation relationship. Based on this, the processing circuit 500 can determine and execute the electronic device control action matched with the sensing signal according to the sensing signal output by the camera 430.
[0069] In one embodiment, the physical parameters of the decorative piece 300 are different at different rotation positions, and the physical parameters include at least one of pixels, light transmittance, reflectance, and pattern. The sensing signal output by the camera 430 corresponds to at least one of pixel change information, light transmittance change information, reflectance change information, and pattern change information of an image captured by the camera 430 at the position of the camera 430.
[0070] When the pixels of the decorative piece 300 are different at different rotation positions, the camera 430 can be a monochrome camera 430 or the like having a pixel recognition function. When the decorative piece 300 rotates, the pixel picture captured by the camera 430 changes. The sensing signal output by the camera 430 can represent the change. The processing circuit 500 can calculate how many pixels are displaced per unit time by analyzing the sensing signal. The number of pixels displaced per unit time can be used to calculate the rotation angle of the decorative piece 300. The processing circuit 500 can further determine the electronic device control action matched with the rotation angle.
[0071] When the light transmittance of the decorative piece 300 is different at different rotation positions, the camera 430 can be a color camera 430, such as an RGB camera 430. During the rotation of the decorative piece 300, the light transmittance parameter embodied in the image captured by the camera 430 also changes. The sensing signal output by the camera 430 can represent the change. Therefore, the processing circuit 500 can determine the change in light transmittance by analyzing the sensing signal output by the camera 430, thereby determining the rotation angle of the decorative piece 300 corresponding to the change in light transmittance. After the processing circuit 500 determines the rotation angle of the decorative piece 300, the processing circuit 500 can execute the electronic device control action matched with the rotation angle.
[0072] In an optional embodiment, as shown in FIG. 12, the decorative piece 300 can be divided into multiple regions (different gray scales in the figure represent different regions) in the circumferential direction. For example, when the electronic device is a mobile phone, the decorative piece 300 can be divided into 16 regions, but is not limited to 16. The light transmittance of each region is different and can change in a gradient manner. When the camera 430 captures an image, the camera 430 can detect the gradient change in light transmittance and output a sensing signal representing the gradient change, for the processing circuit 500 to determine the rotation angle of the decorative piece 300.
[0073] When the reflection coefficients of the decorative piece 300 are different at different rotation positions, the camera 430 can also be a color camera 430. At this time, as shown in FIG. 13, a light source 600 can be arranged close to the camera 430, and the light source 600 is used to emit a light signal to the decorative piece 300. The light source 600 and the camera 430 can be fixed on the body 100. During the rotation of the decorative piece 300, the camera 430 detects the change of the reflected light, and outputs a sensing signal capable of representing the change. The processing circuit 500 can determine the change of the reflected light by analyzing the sensing signal. Since the change of the reflected light on the decorative piece 300 is related to the rotation angle of the decorative piece 300, the processing circuit 500 can determine the rotation angle of the decorative piece 300 corresponding to the sensing signal, and further determine the electronic device control action corresponding to the rotation angle.
[0074] When the patterns of the decorative piece 300 are different at different rotation positions, the camera 430 can also be a color camera 430. During the rotation of the decorative piece 300, the camera 430 detects the change of the pattern features (one or more of color, pattern shape, gray scale, etc.) on the decorative piece 300, and outputs a sensing signal capable of representing the change to the processing circuit 500, so that the processing circuit 500 performs the electronic device control action according to the sensing signal.
[0075] When the reflection coefficients and the patterns are different, the decorative piece 300 can also be divided into a plurality of regions according to the circumferential direction, and the physical parameters of each region are different, as described in the above embodiments.
[0076] In one of the embodiments, as shown in FIG. 14, the motion monitoring sensing component 400 further includes a light supplement lamp 440.
[0077] The light supplement lamp 440 is arranged close to the camera 430, and the light supplement lamp 440 is used to provide a light supplement source 600 for the camera 430. By arranging the light supplement lamp 440, the clarity of the image captured by the camera 430 can be improved, so as to improve the analysis accuracy of the processing circuit 500 on the physical parameters carried in the image based on the sensing signal, and facilitate the electronic device control according to the user's desired control action.
[0078] In one of the embodiments, as shown in FIGS. 15-18, one of the decorative piece 300 and the motion monitoring sensing component 400 includes a ring-shaped sensor H, and the other includes a contact probe T. The ring-shaped sensor H outputs a sensing signal representing the change of the contact position of the contact probe T during the rotation of the decorative piece 300.
[0079] The contact detection member T can be a part of the decorative member 300, and the ring-shaped sensor H can be a part of the motion monitoring sensing component 400. Alternatively, the contact detection member T can be a part of the motion monitoring sensing component 400, and the ring-shaped sensor H can be a part of the decorative member 300. The ring-shaped sensor H or the contact detection member T included in the motion monitoring sensing component 400 is fixedly installed on the body 100 and has a fixed position relative to the body 100. During rotation of the decorative member 300, the contact detection member T moves on the ring-shaped sensor H, and the sensing signal output by the ring-shaped sensor H can represent the movement. Therefore, the processing circuit 500 can determine the distance between the initial contact position and the final contact position of the contact detection member T on the ring-shaped sensor H according to the sensing signal, and determine the rotation angle of the decorative member 300, and further determine and execute the electronic device control action matched with the rotation angle.
[0080] It should be noted that the processing circuit 500 in the electronic device provided in the embodiments of the present application can store the mapping relationship between the sensing signal and the electronic device control action. Alternatively, the processing circuit 500 can store the mapping relationship among the sensing signal, the rotation angle, and the electronic device control action.
[0081] In one of the embodiments, the ring-shaped sensor H includes one of a resistance ring and a ring-shaped pressure sensor.
[0082] When the ring-shaped sensor H is a resistance ring, as shown in FIGS. 15 and 16, the resistance ring can be a part of the motion monitoring sensing component 400, and the contact detection member T can be a part of the decorative member 300. Alternatively, the resistance ring can be a part of the decorative member 300, and the contact detection member T can be a part of the motion monitoring sensing component 400. One point on the ring-shaped sensor H is connected to the processing circuit 500, and the contact detection member T is also connected to the processing circuit 500 to form a loop. During rotation of the decorative member 300, the resistance value in the loop changes. Based on the correlation between the rotation angle of the decorative member 300 and the change in the resistance value, the processing circuit 500 can determine the rotation angle of the decorative member 300 based on the sensing signal output by the ring-shaped sensor H, and further determine the electronic device control action matched with the rotation angle. Alternatively, the resistance voltage division design can be used. During rotation of the decorative member 300, the contact detection member T rotates to different positions on the ring-shaped resistance ring, and the resistance voltage division detected by the contact detection member T is different, and the contact detection member T outputs the sensing signal representing the change to the processing circuit 500, so that the processing circuit 500 can determine the rotation angle of the decorative member 300.
[0083] The ring-shaped sensor H can be an open loop sensor, such as a semicircular arc-shaped magnet. Alternatively, the ring-shaped sensor H can be a closed loop sensor, such as a circular arc-shaped magnet.
[0084] When the ring-shaped sensor H is a ring-shaped pressure sensor, as shown in FIGS. 17-18, the ring-shaped pressure sensor can be part of the motion monitoring sensing component 400, and the contact probe T is part of the decorative piece 300. The ring-shaped pressure sensor can be part of the decorative piece 300, and the contact probe T is part of the motion monitoring sensing component 400. During rotation of the decorative piece 300, different positions of the ring-shaped pressure sensor feel the pressure of the contact probe T, and output a sensing signal representing the change of the position to the processing circuit 500, so that the processing circuit 500 determines and executes an electronic device control action matched with the sensing signal according to the sensing signal.
[0085] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG. 19, the decorative piece 300 includes a first metal sheet 340 fixed to the housing 200, and a second metal sheet 350 rotatably connected to the housing 200. When the second metal sheet 350 rotates relative to the first metal sheet 340, the projection overlap area between the second metal sheet 350 and the first metal sheet 340 changes. The motion monitoring sensing component 400 outputs a sensing signal representing the change of the projection overlap area during rotation of the second metal sheet 350.
[0086] In this embodiment, the motion monitoring sensing component 400 can be an inductive element such as a wireless charging coil 450. When the projection overlap area between the first metal sheet 340 and the second metal sheet 350 changes, the sensing signal sensed by the motion monitoring sensing component 400 is affected, i.e., the sensing signal changes synchronously with the change of the projection overlap area. Based on this, the processing circuit 500 can determine the relative position change between the first metal sheet 340 and the second metal sheet 350 based on the received sensing signal. Since the first metal sheet 340 is fixed to the housing 200, and the housing 200 is arranged opposite to the body 100, the relative position change between the second metal sheet 350 and the body 100 can be determined. In an optional embodiment, the first metal sheet 340 can be fixed to the housing 200 by magnetic attraction, adhesion, or the like.
[0087] In one embodiment, the motion monitoring sensing component 400 comprises a wireless charging coil 450. When the user rotates the second metal sheet 350, the total area of the first metal sheet 340 and the second metal sheet 350 changes, the Q value (quality factor, which refers to the ratio of the inductive reactance and the equivalent loss resistance of the wireless charging coil 450 when the wireless charging coil 450 works under a certain frequency of alternating voltage) of the wireless charging coil 450 changes accordingly, and outputs a sensing signal reflecting the change of the Q value to the processing circuit 500. Based on the corresponding relationship, the processing circuit 500 can determine the change of the total area of the first metal sheet 340 and the second metal sheet 350, and thus determine the rotation angle of the second metal sheet 350, which represents the user's intention to perform the electronic device regulation operation. The relationship can be obtained by reading the pre-stored sensing signal-regulation action mapping relationship, and then performing the electronic device regulation action matched with the sensing signal.
[0088] For example, when the user takes a photo with the camera module 700, the user rotates the decorative piece 300 on the back of the electronic device with a finger, the second metal sheet 350 rotates accordingly, and the wireless charging coil 450 synchronously outputs a sensing signal capable of representing the change of the Q value. The processing circuit 500 determines the focusing size according to the sensing signal, and performs the focusing action of the camera module 700 matched with the sensing signal. During the adjustment process, the user can observe the effect after focusing in the photo interface. Of course, the regulation action can also include photo angle rotation and other operations, which are not limited herein.
[0089] In one embodiment, the first metal sheet 340 can be a fan shape. The second metal sheet 350 can also be a fan shape.
[0090] In one embodiment, the first metal sheet 340 can be multiple. The second metal sheet 350 can also be multiple.
[0091] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG. 20, the second metal sheet 350 can also rotate in a direction away from the shell 200, forming a non-zero angle with the plane where the shell 200 is located. At this time, the second metal sheet 350 can support the shell 200 and the body 100, and act as an electronic device support.
[0092] In one of the embodiments, as shown in FIG. 19, the electronic device further comprises a camera module 700. The camera module 700 is arranged on the body 100. The decorative member 300 is arranged around the camera module 700. The decorative member 300 around the camera module 700 can be arranged as a rotatable structure to realize the control operation of the electronic device, so as to ensure the overall appearance of the electronic device and realize the convenient operation of the electronic device without increasing the external volume of the electronic device. In addition, the camera module 700 is arranged at a position such that the index finger and the middle finger of the user can also complete the rotation operation of the decorative member 300 when the user holds the electronic device with one hand, thereby further improving the user operation convenience.
[0093] The camera module 700 refers to a functional module including one or more cameras for shooting pictures in electronic devices such as mobile phones and tablets.
[0094] In one of the embodiments, the control actions of the electronic device performed by the processing circuit 500 include at least one of the focusing of the camera module 700, the interface content adjustment, and the volume adjustment. Of course, the control actions of the electronic device are not limited to the above examples, and can also be other control actions defined for other functions of the electronic device.
[0095] In one of the embodiments, the processing circuit 500 is further configured to identify the enabled function of the electronic device and perform the control action matched with the sensing signal for the enabled function of the electronic device. By identifying the enabled function, the control action for the function can be determined. For example, when the processing circuit 500 identifies that the camera module 700 is being enabled, the control action can be the focusing of the camera module 700. When the processing circuit 500 identifies that the video playing software is being enabled, the control action can be one of the interface content adjustment (including but not limited to playing the next episode, full-screen playing, original scale playing, brightness adjustment, etc.) and the volume adjustment. The definition of the control action can be set based on the user demand, and is not limited herein.
[0096] In one of the embodiments, the shell 200 comprises a back cover. For example, when the electronic device is a mobile phone, the back cover is the battery back cover of the mobile phone. The control function of the electronic device can be realized by installing the decorative member 300 on the back cover. The decorative member 300 is installed on the back cover, which conforms to the user's usage habit. When the user holds the electronic device, the decorative member 300 can be rotated.
[0097] In one of the embodiments, an electronic device system is provided, which comprises the above electronic device and a protective case.
[0098] The rotating structure is formed on both sides of the protective shell, and the rotating structure and the decorative piece form a synchronous rotating structure when the protective shell is matched and connected with the shell. The rotating structure is formed on both sides of the protective shell, which can be understood as that when the protective shell is matched and connected with the shell, there is also part of the rotating structure on the side close to the shell, and there is also part of the rotating structure on the side away from the shell, so that when the user rotates the rotating structure on the side away from the shell, the rotating structure on the side close to the shell drives the decorative piece to rotate synchronously.

The matched and connected manner can be a sleeving connection, a clamping connection, etc. The common connection manners of the electronic device and the shell can be referred to. The shell can be a protective shell for protecting the electronic device from being damaged. For example, when the electronic device is a mobile phone, the shell can be a mobile phone shell.

[0106] As to the arrangement of the first metal sheet and the second metal sheet, the implementation process of the electronic device regulation can be referred to the description in the above electronic device embodiments, which will not be repeated here.
