At least a portion of the first camera module (141) and at least a portion of the second camera module (142) may be arranged to overlap with the opening (125) of the rear plate (120) in the first direction. In one example, the first camera module (141) and the second camera module (142) may be arranged together on a camera bracket (e.g., the camera bracket (145) of FIG. 6). For example, the first camera module (141) and the second camera module (142) may be spaced apart from each other.

[0075] A bonding material (320) may be placed on the rear surface (121) of the rear plate (120) (e.g., along the -z axis). The bonding material (320) may be bonded to the first bracket (310) and the rear plate (120) so that the first bracket (310) can be assembled to the rear plate (120) from the outside of the rear plate (120). In one example, the bonding material (320) may include an adhesive applied to the rear plate (120).

[0076] An elastic material (330) may be placed between the first bracket (310) and the rear camera device (140). For example, the elastic material (330) may be placed on the rear camera device (140) (e.g., along the -z axis) to support the first bracket (310) in a second direction. The elastic material (330) may be compressed between the first bracket (310) and the rear camera device (140). For example, when an impact is applied to the first bracket (310), the elastic material (330) may be configured to be at least partially compressed in a first direction to absorb the impact applied to the rear camera device (140). In one example, the elastic material (330) may be formed of a sponge.

[0077] A first glass (340) and a second glass (370) may be placed on the first bracket (310). For example, the first glass (340) may be placed on the seating surface (e.g., the surface facing the -z axis) of the first bracket (310). The first glass (340) may be bonded to the first bracket (310) through a first adhesive material (350). The second glass (370) may be placed on the seating surface (e.g., the surface facing the -z axis) formed on the protruding part of the first bracket (310) (e.g., the part that accommodates the lens of the rear camera device (140)). For example, the second glass (370) may be bonded to the first bracket (310) through a second adhesive material (360).

[0078] In one embodiment, the first glass (340) may be configured to form substantially the same appearance as the rear plate (120). For example, the first glass (340) and the rear plate (120) may be formed of substantially the same material. Alternatively, in one embodiment, the first glass (340) may be formed integrally with the rear plate (120). In one example, the first glass (340) and / or the rear plate (120) may be formed of tempered glass, synthetic resin, ceramic, composite material, or a combination of two or more of these. Alternatively, in one example, the first glass (340) may be processed (e.g., surface treated) to have the same appearance (e.g., color) as the rear plate (120).

[0079] In one embodiment, the second glass (370) may be positioned to be aligned with the lens of the rear camera device (140) in a second direction and may cover the lens. For example, the second glass (370) may be positioned at the top of the cover portion (300) (e.g., at the end in the -z-axis direction). The second glass (370) may include at least a partially transparent material so that light can be incident on the rear camera device (140).

[0080] In one embodiment, the first bracket (310) is configured not to include a portion facing the front (122) of the rear plate (120) so that it can be directly bonded to the rear (121) of the rear plate (120). For example, the first bracket (310) can be attached to the rear (121) through a bonding material (320) placed on the rear (121) of the rear plate (120). The first bracket (310) can face the rear camera device (140) through an opening (125). The first bracket (310) can be indirectly contacted with the rear camera device (140) through an elastic material (330). In one example, the portion of the first bracket (310) facing the rear plate (120) and the rear camera device (140) can be formed of different materials. For example, the portion of the first bracket (310) facing the rear surface (121) may be formed of metal, and the portion facing the rear camera device (140) may be formed of an injection molded part. Alternatively, for example, the portion of the first bracket (310) facing the rear camera device (140) may be formed of an injection molded part, and the portion facing the rear surface (121) may be formed of metal. This is explained in detail below in FIG. 4a.

[0081] In one embodiment, the components constituting the cover portion (300) may be aligned parallel to the optical axis of the lens of the rear camera device (140). For example, the components may be aligned in the direction of the optical axis of the first lens of the first camera module (141) (e.g., oa1 in FIG. 7) or the optical axis of the second lens of the second camera module (142) (e.g., oa2 in FIG. 7). For example, the optical axes may be parallel to the z-axis.

[0082] FIGS. 4a and 4b show a first bracket viewed from various angles according to one embodiment. Reference numeral 401 in FIG. 4a shows the first bracket (310) viewed from the -z axis, and reference numeral 402 shows the first bracket (310) viewed from the +z axis. Reference numeral 403 in FIG. 4b shows the first bracket (310) viewed from the +x axis, and reference numeral 404 shows the first bracket (310) viewed obliquely.

[0083] Referring to FIGS. 1a through 4b, in one embodiment, the first bracket (310) may include a metal part (311) and an injection part (312). For example, the metal part (311) and the injection part (312) may be formed integrally through insert injection. Alternatively, in one embodiment, the metal part (311) and the injection part (312) may be formed separately and then joined integrally. The metal part (311) may include a front side (311f) (e.g., a face facing the -z axis) exposed to the outside of the housing (101) and a rear side (311r) (e.g., a face facing the +z axis) facing the rear plate (120). The injection part (312) may be formed on the rear side (311r) of the metal part (311) and may come into contact with the rear plate (120).

[0084] The metal part (311) may include a plurality of protrusions protruding in a second direction. For example, a first protrusion (3111) and a second protrusion (3112) protruding in the -z-axis direction may be formed on the front surface (311f) of the metal part (311). The first protrusion (3111) may include a first opening (3111h) that overlaps with the lens of the first camera module (141) on the z-axis. The second protrusion (3112) may include a second opening (3112h) that overlaps with the lens of the second camera module (142) on the z-axis. A second adhesive material (360) and a second glass (370) may be disposed on the first mounting surface (3111s) where the first opening (3111h) of the first protrusion (3111) is formed. A second adhesive material (360) and a second glass (370) may be disposed on the second seating surface (3112s) where the second opening (3112h) of the second protrusion (3112) is formed. The second glass (370) may be stably fixed to the metal part (311) through the second adhesive material (360). In one embodiment, a flash hole (311h) constituting a flash area may be formed in the metal part (311).

[0085] In one embodiment, an outer wall (311w) may be formed in the corner area of ​​the front surface (311f) of the metal part (311) and protrude in a second direction from the front surface (311f). For example, the outer wall (311w) may form the rim of the metal part (311), and a first adhesive material (350) and a first glass (340) may be disposed on a part of the front surface (311f) surrounded by the outer wall (311w). The first glass (340) may be stably fixed to the metal part (311) through the first adhesive material (350). In one example, the first glass (340) may cover the flash hole (311h).

[0086] In one embodiment, the injection portion (312) may be formed only in a portion of the rear surface (311r) of the metal portion (311) and may not be formed over the entire rear surface (311r). For example, the injection portion (312) may be spaced apart from the corner area of ​​the metal portion (311). In one example, the injection portion (312) may be formed in an elliptical shape surrounding the first opening (3111h), the second opening (3112h), and the flash hole (311h).

[0087] FIGS. 5A and 5B illustrate a first glass viewed from various angles according to one embodiment. Reference numeral 501 in FIG. 5A illustrates the first glass (340) viewed from the -z axis, and reference numeral 502 illustrates the first glass (340) viewed from the +z axis. Reference numeral 503 in FIG. 5B illustrates the first glass (340) viewed from the +x axis, and reference numeral 504 illustrates the first glass (340) viewed obliquely.

[0088] Referring to FIGS. 1a through 5b, in one embodiment, the first glass (340) may include a third opening (341h) and a fourth opening (342h) formed by penetrating from the front (340f) to the rear (340r). For example, the inner surface (341s) forming the third opening (341h) may surround the first protrusion (3111). The inner surface (342s) forming the fourth opening (342h) may surround the second protrusion (3112). The front (340f) of the first glass (340) may form substantially the same appearance as the rear (121) of the rear plate (120). For example, a user of the electronic device (100) may perceive that the front (340f) and the rear (121) of the rear plate (120) are formed of the same material. The rear surface (340r) of the first glass (340) can be joined to the front surface (311f) of the first bracket (310) through the first adhesive material (350). The outer surface of the first glass (340) can be surrounded by the outer wall (311w) of the first bracket (310). For example, it can be accommodated in the space within the outer wall (311w) of the first glass (340). For example, the width of the first glass (340) along the z-axis can correspond to the height of the outer wall (311w) along the z-axis.

[0089] FIG. 6 shows a camera device viewed from various angles according to one embodiment. Reference numeral 601 of FIG. 6 shows a rear camera device (140) viewed from the -z axis, and reference numeral 602 shows a rear camera device (140) viewed from the +x axis.

[0090] Referring to FIGS. 1a through 6, in one embodiment, a rear camera device (140) may include a first camera module (141), a second camera module (142), and a camera bracket (145). For example, the camera bracket (145) may be placed on a support structure (132) inside a housing (101) (e.g., on the -z axis), and the first camera module (141) and the second camera module (142) may be placed on the camera bracket (145). The camera bracket (145) may include a receiving space in which the first camera module (141) and the second camera module (142) may be seated. For example, within the receiving space, the first camera module (141) or the second camera module (142) may be driven by OIS and / or AF. For example, the camera bracket (145) can support the first camera module (141) and the second camera module (142) so that the position of the first camera module (141) or the second camera module (142) is maintained.

[0091] The first camera module (141) may include at least one first lens (141L). The first lens (141L) may be positioned, for example, aligned along the z-axis with the first aperture (3111h) of the first protrusion (3111). External light may pass through the second glass (370) and enter the first lens (141L).

[0092] The second camera module (142) may include at least one second lens (142L). The second lens (142L) may be positioned, for example, aligned along the z-axis with the second aperture (3112h) of the second protrusion (3112). External light may pass through the second glass (370) and enter the second lens (142L).

[0093] FIG. 7 is a cross-sectional view of an area in which a cover portion of an electronic device is attached, according to one embodiment. FIG. 7 shows a portion of a cross-section cut along the CC' line of FIG. 1b in which a cover portion (300) is attached to a housing (101).

[0094] Referring to FIGS. 1a through 7, in one embodiment, the first bracket (310) may be positioned such that the metal portion (311) and the injection portion (312) face at least partially the rear plate (120). For example, the rear portion (311r) of the metal portion (311) may be bonded to the rear plate (120) through a bonding material (320), and various configurations may be positioned on the front portion (311f). For example, a second-1 glass (371) and a second-1 adhesive material (361) configured to bond the second-1 glass (371) may be positioned on the first protrusion (3111). A second-2 glass (372) and a second-2 adhesive material (362) configured to bond the second-2 glass (372) may be positioned on the second protrusion (3112). A first glass (340) may be placed in the area excluding the area where protrusions (e.g., first protrusion (3111), second protrusion (3112)) are formed on the front surface (311f) of the metal part (311). The rear surface (311r) of the metal part (311) may be configured to be in contact with the first camera module (141) and the second camera module (142). For example, a first elastic material (331) may be placed between the rear surface (311r) and the first camera module (141), and a second elastic material (332) (e.g., sponge, rubber, silicone, and / or urethane) may be placed between the rear surface (311r) and the second camera module (142).

[0095] In one embodiment, the injection portion (312) may be connected to a portion of the rear surface (311r) of the metal portion (311). For example, the injection portion (312) may be formed to protrude in a first direction from the rear surface (311r). Alternatively, for example, the injection portion (312) may be coupled to the rear surface (311r) of the metal portion (311), and at least a portion of the injection portion (312) may be located on the +z axis relative to the rear surface (311r). At least a portion of the injection portion (312) may protrude on the +z axis relative to the rear surface (311r) and come into contact with the rear plate (120).

[0096] The injection portion (312) may be formed such that at least a portion thereof is positioned inside the opening (125) of the rear plate (120). For example, at least a portion thereof may be positioned to face the inner surface (e.g., a surface perpendicular to the z-axis) forming the opening (125) of the rear plate (120). For example, the injection portion (312) may be formed in a stepped manner so that it is inserted into the opening (125) of the rear plate (120) and simultaneously supported by the rear plate (120).

[0097] In one embodiment, the portion of the injection portion (312) that protrudes most along the +z-axis may be configured to contact the camera bracket (145). For example, the portion of the injection portion (312) that extends to face the camera bracket (145) may come into contact with the camera bracket (145) when an impact is applied to the cover portion (300) (or the first bracket (310)). In one embodiment, at least a portion of the rear surface (311r) of the metal portion (311) may also come into contact with the camera bracket (145).

[0098] In one embodiment, the camera bracket (145) may vary in shape depending on the type, characteristics, and / or size of the camera module. For example, the width of the first camera module (141) (e.g., width in the direction perpendicular to the z-axis) may be smaller than the width of the second camera module (142) (e.g., width in the direction perpendicular to the z-axis), and the camera bracket (145) may be formed to wrap around at least a portion of the first camera module (141). For example, the portion of the camera bracket (145) adjacent to the first camera module (141) may protrude further along the -z-axis compared to the portion adjacent to the second camera module (142). Accordingly, the portion of the injection portion (312) adjacent to the first camera module (141) may be configured to contact the camera bracket (145).

[0099] In one embodiment, the portion of the injection portion (312) adjacent to the second camera module (142) may not come into contact with the camera bracket (145) but may come into contact with the rear plate (120). For example, the injection portion (312) of the first bracket (310) may include a portion formed differently depending on the shape of the camera bracket (145). Hereinafter, for convenience of explanation, the first area (S1) that comes into contact with the camera bracket (145) and the second area (S2) that does not come into contact with the camera bracket (145) among the injection portions (312) are arbitrarily distinguished and described. However, the shape of the injection portion (312) and / or the shape of the camera bracket (145) is not limited to the content described below, and a person skilled in the art will understand that various modified embodiments are possible based on the relationship between the injection portion (312) and the camera bracket (145). Hereinafter, an embodiment will be described focusing on the injection portion (312) comprising a first portion (3121) (e.g., a portion in contact with the rear plate (120)), a second portion (3122) (e.g., a portion in contact with the camera bracket (145)), and a third portion (3123) (e.g., a portion forming a plane with the rear surface (311r) of the metal portion (311)). FIG. 8a is a cross-sectional view of an area adjacent to the second camera module of the cover portion according to one embodiment. FIG. 8a is an enlarged view of the second zone (S2) of FIG. 7, which is omitted in FIG. 7 but shows an area in contact with the rear plate (120) of the injection portion (312) adjacent to the second camera module (142).

[0100] FIG. 8b is an enlarged view of the area adjacent to the injection portion of the cover portion shown in FIG. 8a. FIG. 8b is a further enlarged view of the area adjacent to the injection portion (312) of FIG. 8a (e.g., the area indicated by the dotted line). The cross-sectional views shown in FIG. 8a and FIG. 8b may be substantially identical to the cross-sectional view of the rear plate (120), the cover portion (300), and the second camera module (142) cut along the AA' cut line of FIG. 1b.

[0101] Referring to FIGS. 1a through 8b, in one embodiment, the injection portion (312) may include a first portion (3121) connecting the metal portion (311) and the rear plate (120), and a third portion (3123) extending outward from the first portion (3121). For example, through the first portion (3121), the rear portion (311r) of the metal portion (311) (e.g., the side facing the +z-axis) may be spaced apart from the rear plate (120). For example, the first portion (3121) may support the rear portion (311r) spaced apart from the rear plate (120). The end of the extension direction of the first portion (3121) (e.g., the end facing the +z-axis) may be positioned so as to protrude in the +z-axis direction from the rear portion (311r). In one example, the third portion (3123) may be defined as a portion that forms substantially the same plane as the surface of the rear surface (311r) facing the bonding material (320). The third portion (3123) may, for example, be in at least partial contact with the bonding material (320).

[0102] In one embodiment, the injection portion (312) may be formed with a step. For example, the first portion (3121) and the third portion (3123) may be formed with a step. For example, the third portion (3123) may include a first surface (3121f) (e.g., a surface facing the +z-axis) that forms a plane substantially identical to a part of the rear surface (311r). The first portion (3121) may include a second surface (3121s) that contacts the rear surface (121) of the rear plate (120), and a first stepped surface (3121m) connecting the first surface (3121f) and the second surface (3121s). For example, the first surface (3121f) and the second surface (3121s) may be connected by the first stepped surface (3121m) to form a step along the z-axis. In one example, the first step surface (3121m) may be extended to a set length so that the metal part (311) and the rear plate (120) can be stably joined by the bonding material (320). For example, the length of the first step surface (3121m) along the z-axis may be substantially equal to the first gap (D1) between the rear (311r) of the metal part (311) and the rear plate (120). For example, the first part (3121) of the injection part (312) may serve as a spacer that maintains the first gap (D1). For example, by ensuring that the first gap (D1) is maintained evenly through the first part (3121), sagging of the bonding material (320) is prevented, and the metal part (311) and the rear plate (120) can be evenly attached.

[0103] In one embodiment, the metal part (311) may include a side wall (311sw) connecting the front (311f) and the rear (311r). For example, the side wall (311sw) may be substantially identical to the outer wall (311w) of FIG. 4b or may be configured to be connected to the outer wall (311w). The side wall (311sw) may protrude further in a first direction relative to the rear (311r) of the metal part (311). For example, the end of the side wall (311sw) in the first direction (e.g., the end in the +z-axis direction) may be spaced apart from the rear plate (120) by a second gap (D2) smaller than the first gap (D1).

[0104] A bonding material (320) may be placed in the space enclosed by the side wall (311sw) and the first part (3121) of the injection part (312). For example, the space may be defined as a first recess (311rc). The first recess (311rc) may be understood as a groove formed concavely in the -z-axis direction of the first bracket (310).

[0105] By forming a side wall (311sw) protruding so as to be adjacent to the rear plate (120) rather than the rear surface (311r) of the metal part (311), the configuration (e.g., bonding material (320) or injection part (312)) visible through the first recess (311rc) may be at least partially obscured. For example, from the outside of the electronic device (100), the configurations on the inner side of the side wall (311sw) (e.g., the side facing the first recess (311rc)) may not be visible.

[0106] In one embodiment, a portion of the metal portion (311) and / or a portion of the injection portion (312) may face the second camera housing (1421) of the second camera module (142) with the second elastic material (332) in between. For example, the injection portion (312) may include a coupling portion (3124) extending inwardly into the first portion (3121). The coupling portion (3124) may be in partial contact with the second elastic material (332). A portion of the impact applied to the second elastic material (332) may be absorbed by the coupling portion (3124).

[0107] By forming the first part (3121) of the injection part (312), a gap (e.g., a first gap (D1)) may be formed between the rear surface (311r) of the metal part (311) and the rear surface (121) of the rear plate (120). By forming the first part (3121), a gap (e.g., a second gap (D2)) may be formed between the side wall (311sw) of the metal part (311) and the rear surface (121) of the rear plate (120). By these gaps, damage to the rear plate (120) caused by the metal part (311) during an external impact may be reduced. At the same time, for example, the injection part (312) may be configured such that when an impact is applied to the first bracket (310), at least a portion (e.g., the first part (3121)) is elastically deformed and absorbs the impact. For example, the injection portion (312) may contain an elastic material, so that the impact force transmitted to the rear plate (120) can be reduced.

[0108] FIG. 9a is a cross-sectional view of an area adjacent to a first camera module of a cover portion according to one embodiment. FIG. 9a is an enlarged view of the first zone (S1) of FIG. 7, showing an area in contact with the rear plate (120) of an injection portion (312) adjacent to the first camera module (141).

[0109] FIG. 9b is an enlarged view of the area adjacent to the injection portion of the cover portion shown in FIG. 9a. FIG. 9b is a further enlarged view of the area adjacent to the injection portion (312) of FIG. 9a (e.g., the area indicated by the dotted line). The cross-sectional views shown in FIG. 9a and FIG. 9b may be substantially identical to the cross-sectional view of the rear plate (120), the cover portion (300), and the first camera module (141) cut along the BB' cut line of FIG. 1b.

[0110] Referring to FIGS. 1a through 9b, in one embodiment, at least one of the components of the electronic device (100) may be identical or similar to at least one of the components of the electronic device (100) of FIGS. 1a through 8b, and redundant descriptions are omitted below. In one embodiment, the injection portion (312) may further include a portion that contacts the camera bracket (145). For example, the injection portion (312) may include a first portion (3121) that contacts the rear plate (120), a second portion (3122) connected to the first portion (3121) and extending toward the camera bracket (145), and a third portion (3123) connected to the first portion (3121) and forming the same plane as the rear surface (311r) of the metal portion (311). For example, the second portion (3122) may be formed on the opposite side from the third portion (3123). The second part (3122) may be extended at a predetermined distance from the opening (125) of the rear plate (120). For example, the second part (3122) may be formed with a step from the first part (3121) and may include a second stepped surface (3122m) that extends perpendicularly to the second surface (3121s) of the first part (3121). The second stepped surface (3122m) may be spaced at a third distance (D3) from the inner surface of the opening (125) (e.g., the surface facing the second stepped surface (3122m)).

[0111] The second part (3122) may be extended at a predetermined distance from the camera bracket (145). For example, the mutually facing surfaces of the second part (3122) and the camera bracket (145) may be spaced apart by a fourth distance (D4). For example, when no external impact is applied to the first bracket (310), the third surface (3122t) facing the +z-axis of the second part (3122) and the surface (1451) facing the -z-axis of the camera bracket (145) may be spaced apart by a fourth distance (D4). When no external impact is applied to the first bracket (310), the metal part (311) and the first camera housing (1411) of the first camera module (141) may be in contact through the first elastic material (331).

[0112] The second part (3122) of the injection part (312) may be formed to reduce the impact applied to the first camera module (141). For example, the second part (3122) may be compressed in a first direction. For example, when an external impact (e.g., an impact in the +z-axis direction) is applied to the first bracket (310), the fourth gap (D4) between the second part (3122) and the camera bracket (145) may be reduced. The second part (3122) may be in contact with the camera bracket (145) and partially compressed in a first direction. By the compression of the second part (3122), the degree of compression of the first elastic material (331) may be relieved. For example, the degree to which the first elastic material (331) is compressed between the rear surface (311r) of the metal part (311) and the camera bracket (145) due to an impact applied to the first bracket (310) can be reduced by the compression of the second part (3122). Accordingly, excessive compression of the first elastic material (331) can be reduced or prevented, and the impact transmitted to the first camera module (141) through the first camera housing (1411) can be reduced.

[0113] In one embodiment, the first part (3121), the second part (3122), and the third part (3123) are arbitrarily divided regions of the injection part (312) and may each be referred to as a first section (e.g., first segment, or first fragment), a second section (e.g., second segment, or second fragment), and a third section (e.g., third segment, or third fragment).

[0114] In one embodiment, depending on whether a portion that contacts the camera bracket (145) is formed, the injection portion (312) may be divided into any parts. For example, the injection portion (312) may include a first injection portion (e.g., an injection portion (312) formed in the first zone (S1) shown in FIG. 9a and 9b) comprising a first portion (3121), a second portion (3122), and a third portion (3123), and a second injection portion (e.g., an injection portion (312) formed in the second zone (S2) shown in FIG. 8a and 8b) comprising a fourth portion corresponding to the first portion (3121) (e.g., formed in the same shape) and a fifth portion corresponding to the third portion (3123) (e.g., formed in the same shape). For example, the fourth part may be referred to as the first part (3121) shown in FIGS. 8a and 8b. For example, the fifth part may be referred to as the third part (3123) shown in FIGS. 8a and 8b. The first injection part may be positioned adjacent to a camera module that provides a camera bracket to which the first injection part can be supported, for example, among the camera modules included in the rear camera device (140). For example, the first injection part may be in contact with the camera bracket (145). The second injection part may be positioned adjacent to a camera module that does not provide a camera bracket to which the second injection part can be supported, for example, among the camera modules included in the rear camera device (140). For example, the second injection part may be positioned spaced apart from the camera bracket (145). According to one embodiment, the second injection portion of the first bracket (310) (e.g., the injection portion (312) formed in the second zone (S2)) may be positioned in contact with the camera bracket (145).Alternatively, according to one embodiment, the first injection portion of the first bracket (310) (e.g., the injection portion (312) formed in the first zone (S1)) may be spaced apart from the camera bracket (145).

[0115] FIG. 10 shows paths through which an impact force applied to a cover portion is dispersed, according to one embodiment. FIG. 10 is a drawing in which an impact force transmission path is added to FIG. 9a.

[0116] Referring to FIGS. 1a through 10, in one embodiment, an impact force (F) applied to the cover portion (300) from the outside (or an impact force applied to the first bracket (310)) can be distributed through various configurations of the cover portion (300). For example, the impact force (F) can be propagated through a first path (L1) leading from the metal portion (311) through the first elastic material (331) to the first camera module (141), a second path (L2) leading from the metal portion (311) through the first part (3121) of the injection portion (312) to the rear plate (120), and a third path (L3) leading from the metal portion (311) through the second part (3122) of the injection portion (312) to the camera bracket (145). For example, the impact force (F) may be substantially equal to or greater than the sum of the first impact force (F1) transmitted to the first path (L1), the second impact force (F2) transmitted to the second path (L2), and the third impact force (F3) transmitted to the third path (L3).

[0117] In one embodiment, with reference to the first path (L1), the metal part (311), the first elastic material (331), and the first camera module (141) (e.g., the first camera housing (1411)) may overlap at least partially along the z-axis. With reference to the second path (L2), the metal part (311), the first part (3121) of the injection part (312), and the rear plate (120) may overlap at least partially along the z-axis. With reference to the third path (L3), the metal part (311), the second part (3122) of the injection part (312), and the camera bracket (145) may overlap at least partially along the z-axis. In one embodiment, the injection part (312) may support the metal part (311) so that the metal part (311) does not overlap with the rear plate (120) in a direction perpendicular to the z-axis.

[0118] The cover portion (300) is formed as a structure in which the impact force (F) is distributed to a first path (L1), a second path (L2), and a third path (L3), thereby reducing or preventing the impact force (F) from being concentratedly propagated only to a specific configuration (e.g., the first camera module (141)). For example, if the impact force transmitted to any one of the first path (L1), the second path (L2), or the third path (L3) increases, the impact force transmitted to the others may decrease. The injection portion (312) is configured to transmit the second impact force (F2) and the third impact force (F3) to the rear plate (120) and the camera bracket (145), respectively, through the first portion (3121) and the second portion (3122), thereby contributing to the dispersion of the impact force. For example, the second part (3122) of the injection part (312) may be configured to be supported by a camera bracket (145) formed of a material that has relatively superior rigidity or is less prone to damage compared to the rear plate (120) and the camera module (141), and damage to the rear plate (120) and the camera module (141) may be reduced or prevented.

[0119] FIGS. 11a and FIG. 11b are drawings for explaining the injection molding portion of a first bracket according to one embodiment. Reference number 1101 in FIG. 11a shows a combined form of a cover portion (300) and a rear camera device (140) viewed from the -z axis, reference number 1102 shows a combined form with the first glass (340) removed, viewed from the -z axis, and reference number 1103 shows a combined form with the first glass (340) and the metal portion (311) of the first bracket (310) removed, viewed from the -z axis. Reference number 1104 in FIG. 11b shows a combined form viewed from the +z axis, and reference numbers 1105 and 1106 show a combined form with the rear camera device (140) removed, viewed from the +z axis.

[0120] Referring to FIG. 1a and FIG. 11b, in one embodiment, the injection portion (312) may be formed to surround the first camera module (141) and the second camera module (142). For example, the injection portion (312) may be formed in the shape of a ring with a hole formed in the center. The hole of the injection portion (312) may overlap with the first camera module (141) and the second camera module (142) along the z-axis. A part of the injection portion (312) may overlap with the camera bracket (145) along the z-axis, and another part may overlap with the rear plate (120) along the z-axis. For example, the injection portion (312) may include a part (1452) (e.g., the second part (3122)) supported by the camera bracket (145) and a part (1201) (e.g., the first part (3121)) supported by the rear plate (120).

[0121] FIG. 12a illustrates an example of a cover portion coupled to a rear cover of an electronic device according to one embodiment. The embodiment illustrated in FIG. 12a can be understood as having a metal support portion (380) added to the embodiment disclosed in FIG. 3a through FIG. 11b, and a detailed description of components that overlap with the components of FIG. 3a through FIG. 11b is omitted. Although some components (e.g., first adhesive material (350), second adhesive material (360), second glass (370)) may not be illustrated in FIG. 12a, a person skilled in the art will fully understand that these components are not omitted but are arranged in the same manner with reference to FIG. 3a through FIG. 11b.

[0122] FIGS. 12b and FIGS. 12c are cross-sectional views illustrating the shape of a first bracket combined with a metal support according to one embodiment. FIG. 12b shows a shape in which a metal support (380) is added to a zone (e.g., the first zone (S1) of FIG. 7) that includes the first part (3121), the second part (3122), and the third part (3123) of the injection part (312), and FIG. 12c shows a shape in which a metal support (380) is added to a zone (e.g., the second zone (S2) of FIG. 7) that includes only the first part (3121) and the third part (3123) of the injection part (312).

[0123] Referring to FIGS. 1a through 12c, in one embodiment, the electronic device (100) may include a cover portion (300) coupled to a rear plate (120) and a rear camera device (140) received in an opening (125) of the rear plate (120). The cover portion (300) may include a first bracket (310), a bonding material (320), an elastic material (330), a first glass (340), and a metal support portion (380). The metal support portion (380) may be connected to the first bracket (310) so that the cover portion (300) does not detach from the rear plate (120). For example, the metal support (380) can be joined to the injection portion (312) of the first bracket (310) so that it is not separated from the rear plate (120) after the cover portion (300) is joined to the outer side (e.g., -z-axis) of the rear plate (120) and can be supported on the front side (122) (e.g., the side facing the +z-axis) of the rear plate (120).

[0124] For example, the metal support (380) may be positioned between the rear plate (120) and the rear camera device (140). For example, the metal support (380) may be positioned adjacent to the front (122) of the rear plate (120). For example, the metal support (380) may be attached to the front (122) of the rear plate (120) with an adhesive member (390). For example, the first part (3121) of the injection part (312) contacts the rear (121) of the rear plate (120) (e.g., the surface facing the -z axis), and the metal support (380) is combined with the second part (3122) of the injection part (312) to contact the front (122) of the rear plate (120), thereby the cover part (300) may be fixed to the rear plate (120) in its entirety. For example, the injection portion (312) and the metal support portion (380) may form an interlocking structure (e.g., a hook structure, a woven structure), and the opening (125) of the rear plate (120) may be engaged with said interlocking structure. In one embodiment, the metal support portion (380) and / or said interlocking structure may not be formed on all parts formed on the injection portion (312). For example, even if the metal support portion (380) is formed in a shape corresponding to the injection portion (312), if the injection portion (312) includes an area that does not include the second portion (3122), said interlocking structure may be formed only on a part of the injection portion (312) and not on the entire injection portion (312). In one embodiment, the metal support portion (380) may include a metal material. For example, the metal support portion (380) may include stainless steel.

[0125] FIG. 13 shows a cover portion viewed from various angles according to one embodiment. Reference numeral 1301 of FIG. 13 shows the cover portion (300) of FIG. 12a to FIG. 12c viewed from the -y-axis, and reference numeral 1302 shows the cover portion (300) of FIG. 12a to FIG. 12c viewed from the +z-axis.

[0126] FIGS. 14a and FIGS. 14b show an example of a form in which a first bracket and a metal support are combined according to one embodiment.

[0127] Referring to FIGS. 1a through 14b, in one embodiment, the metal support (380) may be formed to correspond to at least a portion of the injection portion (312). For example, the metal support (380) may be in a shape that extends along the shape of the injection portion (312). In one example, the metal support (380) may be formed to cover half of the injection portion (312) along the +z-axis. For example, the metal support (380) may extend along the injection portion (312) from the +y-axis end of the injection portion (312) to the -y-axis end.

[0128] In one embodiment, the metal support (380) may be thermally bonded to the injection portion (312). For example, the metal support (380) may be melted and bonded together with the injection portion (312) by heating while positioned to overlap the injection portion (312) along the z-axis. For example, the metal support (380) may be welded or fused to the injection portion (312). In one example, the metal support (380) may be formed to surround a portion (3125) (e.g., a second portion (3122)) protruding along the +z-axis of the injection portion (312). When heated, the protruding portion (3125) may be bonded to the metal support (380) by forming a fusion portion (3120) (e.g., a fusion pole) toward the metal support (380). In one embodiment, the adhesive member (390) is formed to surround at least a portion of the second portion (3122) of the injection portion (312), and the metal support portion (380) may be formed to overlap the adhesive member (390) along the z-axis. The adhesive member (390) may be attached to the front surface (122) of the rear plate (120), and the injection portion (312) may be firmly fixed to the rear plate (120) through the adhesive member (390) after being combined with the metal support portion (380). The cover portion (300) may further include the metal support portion (380) to help prevent the cover portion (300) from detaching from the rear plate (120) in the event of an impact.

[0129] FIG. 15 illustrates an example of a form in which a first bracket and a metal support are combined according to one embodiment. FIG. 15 corresponds to an embodiment in which the shape of the metal support (380) shown in FIG. 12a to FIG. 14b is modified, and a detailed description of the overlapping components is omitted.

[0130] Referring to FIGS. 1a through 15, in one embodiment, the cover portion (300) may include a metal support portion (480) that is coupled to the injection portion (312). In one example, the metal support portion (480) may include a plurality of metal support portions formed separately from each other. For example, the metal support portion (480) may include a first metal support portion (481) coupled to the upper part (e.g., +y-axis portion) of the injection portion (312) and a second metal support portion (482) coupled to the lower part (e.g., -y-axis portion) of the injection portion (312). For example, the first metal support portion (481) may be fused with a protruding portion formed on the upper part of the injection portion (312) to form a first fused portion (3120a). For example, the second metal support (482) may be fused with a protrusion formed on the lower part of the injection portion (312) to form a second fused portion (3120b). The injection portion (312) and the metal support (480) combined by the first fused portion (3120a) and the second fused portion (3120b) may be attached to or supported on the front surface (122) of the rear plate (120), and the detachment of the cover portion (300) may be prevented. Regarding the metal support (480), the description provided for the metal support (380) in FIGS. 12a to 14b may be applied substantially the same or similarly.

[0131] Hereinafter, FIGS. 16 to 19 describe various purposes of the combined structure of the cover portion (300) and the rear plate (120) according to one embodiment and / or various effects that may occur through the combined structure.

[0132] FIG. 16 is a cross-sectional view illustrating the coupling position of the cover portion according to one embodiment.

[0133] Referring to FIGS. 1a through 16, in one embodiment, the cover portion (300) is configured such that the metal portion (311) of the first bracket (310) is joined to the outside of the rear plate (120) (e.g., -z-axis), thereby allowing the position of the front (311f) of the metal portion (311) visible from the outside to be adjusted. For example, neither the metal portion (311) nor the injection portion (312) of the first bracket (310) may be joined or bonded to the bottom of the rear plate (120) (e.g., +z-axis). For example, the first bracket (310) may not include a portion overlapping with the rear plate (120) on the z-axis at the bottom of the rear plate (120), and the first bracket (310) may be positioned generally in a direction adjacent to the corner portion of the housing (101) (e.g., +y-axis direction). For example, the portion adjacent to the corner portion (e.g., side member (130)) of the housing (101) of the rear plate (120) may have a set length (D6) to prevent damage, and the first bracket (310) may be positioned on the rear plate (120) (e.g., along the -z axis) so that the set length (D6) can be maintained. For example, the side wall (311sw) of the metal portion (311) may be positioned to protrude by a predetermined distance (D5) in the +y axis direction from the end (e.g., the -y axis end) forming the opening (125) of the rear plate (120). For example, the area overlapping the metal portion (311) and the rear plate (120) along the z axis may be varied within a range that does not exceed the set length (D6), and the design freedom of the front (311f) of the metal portion (311) constituting the exterior of the electronic device (100) may be enhanced.

[0134] In one embodiment, the extrapolation structure of the cover portion (300) may lead to a reduction in the thickness (e.g., thickness along the z-axis) of the electronic device (100). For example, by omitting at least some of the components that overlap and combine with the upper and lower parts of the rear plate (120), the stacked thickness of the camera portion (e.g., stacked thickness of the rear camera device (140), the rear plate (120), and the cover portion (300)) may be reduced. For example, the cover portion (300) may not include a component that supports the lower part (e.g., +z-axis) of the rear plate (120), and the width of the camera portion in the z-axis direction may be reduced.

[0135] FIG. 17 is a cross-sectional view illustrating a battery placement space according to one embodiment.

[0136] Referring to FIGS. 1a through 17, in one embodiment, the battery (250) placement area can be increased as the position of the cover portion (300) can be adjusted to be adjacent to the corner portion of the housing (101). For example, if the cover portion (300) is coupled to be more offset toward the corner side of the housing (101) (e.g., in the +y-axis direction), the rear camera device (140) (e.g., first camera module (141), second camera module (142), third camera module (143)) which is positioned and aligned with the opening formed in the cover portion (300) can be moved toward the corner side. Accordingly, the battery (250) placement area of ​​the housing (101) can be expanded along the direction of movement (Lb). In the space secured inside the housing (101), a battery (250) with a larger capacity can be placed, and the usable time (or duration) of the electronic device (100) can be improved.

[0137] FIG. 18 is a drawing for explaining an example of a bonding process of a cover part according to one embodiment.

[0138] Referring to FIGS. 1a through 18, in one embodiment, the degree of freedom of the joining process (or assembly process) of the cover portion (300) can be enhanced due to the extrapolable structure of the cover portion (300). For example, the cover portion (300) can be assembled outside the rear plate (120) (e.g., outside the housing (101)) without needing to be assembled inside the rear plate (120) (e.g., inside space of the housing (101)). For example, most of the components constituting the cover portion (300) (e.g., first bracket (310), first glass (340), elastic material (330)) can be joined first. The joined assembly (301) can be joined to a separately joined housing (101) (e.g., rear plate (120)) through a bonding material (320). The cover portion (300) and the rear plate (120) can be fixed to each other for a predetermined time (e.g., the curing time of the bonding material) to ensure a stable connection between the cover portion (300) and the rear plate (120). The electronic device (100) with the cover portion (300) attached can be finally completed after undergoing a waterproof test using atmospheric pressure (P). In one embodiment, the above description explains an example of the assembly process of the cover portion (300), and the assembly process of the cover portion (300) is not limited thereto and can be modified in various ways.

[0139] FIG. 19 is a cross-sectional view showing the flash area of ​​the cover portion according to one embodiment.

[0140] Referring to FIGS. 1a through 19, in one embodiment, the cover portion (300) may further include a flash area. For example, a flash hole (311h) for flash emission may be formed in the metal portion (311) of the first bracket (310). For example, the electronic device (100) may include a printed circuit board (230) disposed inside the housing (101) and a flash (112) (e.g., flash module, light-emitting module) disposed on the printed circuit board (230). A flash hole (311h) may be formed in an area overlapping with the flash (112) of the metal portion (311) along the z-axis. In one embodiment, at least a portion of the surface forming the flash hole (311h) of the metal portion (311) may be cut. For example, at least a portion of the metal portion (311) may be composed of a high gloss surface (3118) (e.g., a glossy surface). For example, the high-gloss surface (3118) may be formed through a surface treatment process (e.g., grinding, polishing, coating, painting) so that the sparkle can be seen from outside the electronic device (100). For example, the high-gloss surface (3118) may have a smooth surface and high reflectivity compared to other parts of the metal part (311). In one example, a first adhesive material (350) and a film (355) may be placed between the high-gloss surface (3118) and the first glass (340). For example, the film (355) (or tape) may be formed as a light-blocking member to prevent light reflection or scattering. For example, the film (355) may be a flare-prevention tape.

[0141] FIG. 20a is a cross-sectional view of an area adjacent to the second camera module of the cover portion according to one embodiment.

[0142] FIG. 20b is an enlarged view of the area adjacent to the injection portion of the cover part shown in FIG. 20a.

[0143] FIGS. 20a and FIGS. 20b may illustrate an example of the shape of the cover portion. For example, FIG. 20a may correspond to an embodiment in which the shape of the metal portion (311) and the injection portion (312) of the first bracket (310) shown in FIG. 8a is modified. FIG. 20b is a further enlarged view of the area adjacent to the injection portion (312a) of FIG. 20a (e.g., the area indicated by the dotted line). The cross-sectional view shown in FIG. 20a and FIG. 20b may be substantially identical to, for example, the cross-sectional view of the rear plate (120), the cover portion (300a), and the second camera module (142) cut along the AA' cut line of FIG. 1b. Hereinafter, the description will focus on the parts that differ from the embodiment of FIG. 8a and FIG. 8b.

[0144] Referring to FIGS. 1a through 20b, in one embodiment, the electronic device (100) may include a cover portion (300a) coupled to a rear plate (120). The cover portion (300a) may include a first bracket (310a) that contacts the rear plate (120) and various components coupled to the first bracket (310a) (e.g., bonding material (320), elastic material (330), first glass (340), second glass (370), first adhesive material (350), second adhesive material (360)). The first bracket (310a) may include a metal portion (311a) and an injection portion (312a). In one example, the metal portion (311a) and the injection portion (312a) may be integrally formed through injection.

[0145] In one embodiment, the injection portion (312a) may form part of the exterior of the first bracket (310a) (e.g., the exterior of the cover portion (300a)). For example, the injection portion (312a) may be formed outside the metal portion (311a). For example, the injection portion (312a) may surround at least part of the metal portion (311a). For example, the metal portion (311a) may include a second protrusion (3112a) surrounding at least part of the second camera module (142), a first extension (3113a) extending from the second protrusion (3112a) onto the rear plate (120), and a second extension (3114a) extending from the second protrusion (3112a) toward the second camera housing (1421). The injection portion (312a) may include a portion surrounding the first extension portion (3113a) and a portion surrounding the second extension portion (3114a).

[0146] For example, the injection portion may include a first contact portion (3121a), a second contact portion (3122a), and a third contact portion (3123a). The first contact portion (3121a) may be in contact with a portion adjacent to the opening (125) of the rear plate (120). The first contact portion (3121a) may be positioned between the first extension (3113a) of the metal portion (311a) and the rear plate (120). The second contact portion (3122a) may be connected to the first contact portion (3121a) and positioned inside the opening (125). The second contact portion (3122a) may be extended along the +z-axis and in contact with the second camera housing (1421). The third contact portion (3123a) may be connected to the first contact portion (3121a) and formed to cover the outer side of the first extension portion (3113a). For example, the third contact portion (3123a) may be formed to have a shape in which a portion interlocks with the first extension portion (3113a). In one embodiment, at least a portion of the third contact portion (3123a) (e.g., a portion protruding in the +z-axis (3125a)) may be in contact with the rear plate (120). In one embodiment, at least a portion of the third contact portion (3123a) (e.g., a portion protruding in the -z-axis (3126a)) may be positioned adjacent to the first glass (340). For example, the third contact portion (3123a) may be extended further in both directions (e.g., ±z-axis) relative to the first extension portion (3113a) so that the first extension portion (3113a) is not visible from the outside. In one example, a void space may be formed between the injection portion (312a) and the rear plate (120) to which a bonding material (320) is disposed. For example, the bonding material (320) may be disposed between the first contact portion (3121a) and the portion (3125a) protruding in the +z-axis of the third contact portion (3123a).
