Description

Electronic device including a cover member

[0001] The various embodiments disclosed in this document relate to an electronic device including a cover member.

[0002] As the functional gap between manufacturers narrows, electronic devices are becoming increasingly slimmer to satisfy consumer purchasing desires, and are being developed to increase rigidity, enhance design aspects, and differentiate their functional elements.

[0003] The information described above may be provided as related art for the purpose of aiding understanding of the present disclosure. No claim or determination is made as to whether any of the foregoing may be applied as prior art related to the present disclosure.

[0004] The electronic device may include electronic components (e.g., a rear camera module, a sensor module, or an indicator) disposed within the internal space of a housing. Among these electronic components, the component positioned to detect the external environment (e.g., a camera module or a sensor module) is positioned to align with an opening formed in the housing, and the opening may be closed through at least one cover member. For example, at least a portion of the at least one cover member may be formed from a material (e.g., a transparent or translucent material) that allows the electronic component to detect the external environment through the cover member. The at least one cover member may be positioned such that it is attached at least partially to the inner surface of the housing within the internal space of the electronic device via an adhesive member, and at least a portion is exposed or protrudes through the opening. For example, the at least one cover member may be formed at least partially from a metal material and exposed to the outside of the electronic device, thereby contributing to the formation of an aesthetically pleasing appearance of the electronic device.

[0005] However, an arrangement structure in which at least one cover member is attached to the inner surface of the housing within the internal space of the electronic device causes an increase in thickness in the remaining entire area of ​​the electronic device that does not correspond to the opening, and can make it difficult to slim down the overall electronic device.

[0006] To solve these problems, at least one cover member can be attached to the outer surface of the housing through an adhesive member, and since this arrangement structure does not require consideration of the overall thickness of the electronic device, it can help to slim down the electronic device.

[0007] However, this arrangement structure may cause at least one cover member to detach from the housing due to external physical impact or chemical action. In this case, external foreign substances and / or moisture may enter the interior of the electronic device through the separated space and opening between the housing and at least one cover member. Furthermore, at least one cover member formed from a metal material to create an aesthetic appearance may cause external static electricity to enter, and the incoming static electricity may cause malfunction and / or damage to surrounding electronic components.

[0008] Various embodiments of the present disclosure may provide an electronic device including a cover member that can reduce the detachment of the cover member and help to slim down the electronic device.

[0009] Various embodiments of the present disclosure may provide an electronic device comprising a cover member that can help improve the waterproof performance of the electronic device.

[0010] Various embodiments of the present disclosure may provide an electronic device including a cover member that can help improve ESD.

[0011] However, the problems intended to be solved in this disclosure are not limited to those mentioned above, and may be expanded in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of this disclosure.

[0012] According to various embodiments, the electronic device comprises a first cover member having a first opening, a first surface facing the outside of the electronic device, and a second surface facing in the opposite direction to the first surface, a second cover member disposed on the first surface to close the first opening, and a support plate fixed to the second cover member through the first opening with the first cover member in between, wherein the support plate may be disposed to overlap at least partially with the first cover member when the second surface is viewed from above.

[0013] An electronic device according to exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure may have a placement structure in which a cover member (e.g., a second cover member) for closing an opening formed in a housing (e.g., a first cover member) is disposed on the outer surface of the housing, and a support plate coupled to the cover member so as to be caught on the inner surface of the housing with the housing in between reduces unintended detachment (separation) of the cover member. Such a placement structure may help to achieve a slimmer electronic device and improved waterproof performance.

[0014] In addition, a support plate formed of a conductive material has an electrical connection structure that is electrically connected to the ground of an electronic device at least partially, thereby helping to reduce malfunction and / or damage to surrounding electronic components through the effective induction of static electricity introduced from the outside.

[0015] In addition, various effects that can be identified directly or indirectly through this document may be provided.

[0016] The effects obtainable from the present disclosure are not limited to those mentioned above, and other unmentioned effects will be clearly understood by those skilled in the art to which the present disclosure belongs from the description below.

The first opening (1110) may be closed through the second cover member (120), and the second opening (1210, 1220, 1230) may be closed through the third cover member (190). In some embodiments, the second opening (1210, 1220, 1230) is replaced by a transparent area as part of the second cover member (120), and the third cover member (190) may be omitted. In one embodiment, the rear camera module (200) among the camera modules (105, 200) may be aligned through the first opening (1110) of the first cover member (111). For example, the rear camera module (200) may come into contact with the external environment through the first opening (1110) formed by penetrating at least a part of the first cover member (111) and the second opening (1210, 1220, 1230) of the second cover member.

[0051] According to various embodiments, the first cover member (111) may include a first surface (111a) facing the outside of the electronic device (100) (e.g., the rear surface (110B) of the electronic device (100) in FIG. 1b) and a second surface (111b) facing the inside of the electronic device. The first surface (111a) may form the outer surface of the first cover member (111), and the second surface (111b) may form the inner surface of the first cover member (111). One surface of the support plate (130) (e.g., the surface facing the +Z axis) may be positioned to face the third surface (1701) of the bracket (170) or to be supported by the bracket (170). At least a portion of the other side of the support plate (130) (e.g., the side facing the -Z axis) may be positioned to face the second side (111b) of the first cover member (111) or to be supported by the first cover member (111). The remaining portion of the said at least portion of the other side of the support plate (130) may face the second cover member (120) or be fixed to at least a portion of the second cover member (120). The support plate (130) may be positioned to overlap at least partially with the first cover member (111) when the second side (111b) of the first cover member (111) is viewed from above. For example, the support plate (130) may be fixed to the second cover member (120) with the first cover member (111) in between.

[0052] According to various embodiments, the support plate (130) may be attached to the second cover member (120) through a first attachment member (1321) (e.g., a double-sided tape member) and a second attachment member (1322) (e.g., a double-sided tape member). In some embodiments, the electronic device (100) may omit the first attachment member (1321) and the second attachment member (1322) or additionally include other components. In one embodiment, the support plate (130) may be fixed to the second cover member (120) by receiving and then catching at least one catch formed in the second cover member (120) (e.g., catch (121, 122, 123, 124) of FIG. 8a) through at least one through hole (131, 132, 133, 134) of the support plate (130).

[0053] According to various embodiments, the second cover member (120) may be attached to the first surface (111a) of the first cover member (111) through an adhesive member (140) (e.g., bonding). In one embodiment, the adhesive member (140) may be formed in a loop shape. For example, the adhesive member (140) may be formed in a continuous closed loop shape that surrounds the rear camera module (200), thereby helping to block foreign substances and / or moisture from entering the space between the first cover member (111) and the second cover member (120). By improving the waterproof performance of the electronic device (100), electronic components (e.g., rear camera module (200), sensor module (not shown), or indicator (not shown)) placed in the internal space (201) of the electronic device (100) may be protected from the outside. The adhesive member (140) may include, for example, a bond, double-sided tape, or an adhesive material.

[0054] According to various embodiments, the second cover member (120) may be formed with at least a portion of a metal material (120a) (e.g., aluminum, stainless steel (STS), or magnesium) and the remainder of a portion of a non-metal material (120b) (e.g., a polymer or an injection molded part). For example, the second cover member (120) may have one side (e.g., a side facing the +Z axis) formed of a non-metal material (120b) and the other side (e.g., a side facing the -Z axis) formed of a metal material (120a). The non-metal material (120b) may be formed by injection molding of, for example, a polymer (e.g., polycarbonate (PC), acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS), or polypropylene (PP)), a ceramic (e.g., alumina or zirconia), or a combination of at least two of the above materials. In some embodiments, the metal material (120a) and the non-metal material (120b) may be structurally combined.

[0055] According to various embodiments, at least a portion of the second cover member (120) (e.g., a metal material (120a)) may be disposed on the first surface (111a) of the first cover member (111) and exposed to the external environment. The remaining portion of the second cover member (120) (e.g., a non-metal material (120b)) may be exposed to the internal space (201) through the first opening (1110) of the first cover member (111) and may face at least a portion of the support plate (130). For example, by forming the portion of the second cover member (120) exposed to the external environment with a metal material (120a), the electronic device (100) may be aided in forming an aesthetic appearance through the second cover member (120).

[0056] According to various embodiments, the second cover member (120) may include a second opening (e.g., a second-1 opening (1210), a second-2 opening (1220), and / or a second-3 opening (1230)) that is positioned (e.g., aligned) with the rear camera module (200). The second-1 opening (1210) may be positioned to correspond to the first camera (210). The second-2 opening (1220) may be positioned to correspond to the second camera (220). The second-3 opening (1230) may be positioned to correspond to the third camera (230).
