The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. It is to be understood that the following embodiments may be combined with each other.
Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a first perspective view of an electronic device 100. The electronic device 100 may be a smart device having a fingerprint module, such as a phone, a television, a tablet computer, a mobile phone, a camera, a personal computer, a notebook computer, a vehicle-mounted device, and a wearable device. Taking the electronic device 100 as a mobile phone as an example, for convenience of description, the electronic device 100 is defined with reference to the first viewing angle, the width direction of the electronic device 100 is defined as the X direction, the length direction of the electronic device 100 is defined as the Y direction, and the thickness direction of the electronic device 100 is defined as the Z direction.
Referring to fig. 2 in conjunction with fig. 1, the electronic device 100 includes a housing 10, a cover plate 20, a first light source 30 and a dust cover 40. The cover plate 20 is mounted on the housing 10 to form an accommodating space 11 in the housing 10. It will be appreciated that the housing 10 is generally a receiving structure having an opening. When the cover plate 20 is attached to the housing 10, the cover plate 20 and the housing 10 form a substantially closed housing space 11. The accommodating space 11 can be used to accommodate the components of the electronic apparatus 100. Such as a camera, a display screen, a motherboard, or a battery.
Further, the cover plate 20 is provided with a first sound outlet hole 21. The first sound outlet hole 21 is used for discharging a sound emitted from the device in the accommodating space 11. For example, sound emitted by a receiver or sound emitted by a speaker. Fig. 2 illustrates a receiver 72. Fig. 2 illustrates the receiver 72 abutting directly against the dust cap 40. In another embodiment, the housing 20 is provided between the receiver 72 and the dust cover 40, that is, the dust cover 40 is attached to the housing 20, and the receiver 72 is abutted against the housing 20.
Further, the dust cover 40 is attached to the cover plate 20. The dust cover 40 is used to prevent external dust of the electronic device 100 from entering the accommodating space 11 through the first sound outlet hole 21, thereby preventing the external dust of the electronic device 100 from damaging devices in the accommodating space 11. In addition, the dust cover 40 is opened with a second sound outlet 49. The second sound outlet hole 49 communicates with the first sound outlet hole 21. At this time, the sound emitted from the device in the accommodating space 11 can be transmitted to the first sound emitting hole 21 through the second sound emitting hole 49.
In addition, the first light source 30 is mounted on the dust cover 40, and the first light source 30 and the second sound outlet 49 are spaced apart from each other. The light emitted from the first light source 30 is transmitted through the first sound output hole 21. Optionally, the first light source 30 may be a miniLED or a micro led.
In the present embodiment, the first sound outlet hole 21 is formed in the cover plate 20, so that the sound of the electronic device 100 can be emitted through the first sound outlet hole 21, and the light emitted from the light emitting layer can be emitted out of the electronic device 100 through the first sound outlet hole 21. Therefore, the first sound emitting hole 21 of the present application has a "dual purpose" function.
In addition, the first light source 30 is disposed on the dust cover 40, so that the space of the dust cover 40 is effectively utilized to mount the first light source 30, the first light source 30 is prevented from occupying the internal space of the electronic device 100, and the space utilization rate of the electronic device 100 is further improved. Therefore, the electronic device 100 of the present embodiment has a high space utilization. It is understood that the dust cover 40 of the present embodiment can not only be used to prevent external dust of the electronic device 100 from entering the accommodating space 11, but the dust cover 40 can also provide an installation space for the first light source 30. Thus, the dust cover 40 has a "one-object-two-purpose" function.
In addition, the first light source 30 is arranged on the dust cover 40, and the light emitted by the first light source 30 is transmitted out of the electronic device 100 through the first sound outlet hole 21, so that when the user uses the electronic device 100, the user can see a cool light emitting effect of the electronic device 100, and the user experience of the electronic device 100 is improved.
Optionally, referring to fig. 3, the number of the first light sources 30 is plural. A plurality of first light sources 30 are disposed around the second sound outlet hole 49. At this time, the plurality of first light sources 30 enclose a ring structure. When the plurality of first light sources 30 emit light simultaneously or intermittently, the user can see a cool light emitting effect of the dust cover 40, so that the electronic device 100 has better user experience. In addition, in other embodiments, the plurality of first light sources 30 may be arranged in different shapes, such as the name of the user or the birthday date. In addition, the plurality of first light sources 30 may also display the current time on different time nodes, so as to significantly improve the user experience of the electronic device 100.
Alternatively, the plurality of first light sources 30 may emit light rays of the same color, or may emit light rays of different colors. For example, the first light source 30 may emit red light alone. The second light source may also emit blue and green light simultaneously. In addition, the first light source 30 may emit light continuously or may emit light by flashing alternately.
Alternatively, the first light source 30 may emit light of different colors according to different scenes. For example, when the user needs illumination, the first light source 30 may emit white light. The first light source 30 can emit light of different colors when the user is playing music. When the user receives the message, the first light source 30 may emit a red light as the alert signal.
Referring to fig. 3 again, and with reference to fig. 4, the dust cover 40 includes a dust-proof portion 41 and a fixing portion 42 disposed around the dust-proof portion 41. Part of the dust-proof portion 41 is accommodated in the first sound outlet hole 21. The fixing portion 42 includes a first portion 421 and a second portion 422 surrounding the first portion 421. The first portion 421 is opposite to the first sound outlet 21. The second portion 422 is fixed to a surface of the cover plate 20 facing the accommodating space 11. The dust-proof portion 41 is provided with a second sound outlet hole 49. A surface of the first portion 421 facing away from the accommodating space 11 is mounted with the first light source 30.
It can be understood that by fixing the second portion 422 to the surface of the cover plate 20 facing the accommodating space 11, the connection stability of the dust cover 40 and the cover plate 20 can be ensured, that is, the dust cover 40 is prevented from falling off from the first sound outlet 21.
In addition, by mounting the first light source 30 on the surface of the first portion 421 facing away from the accommodating space 11, so that the first light source 30 can directly transmit out of the electronic device 100 through the first sound outlet hole 21, the light emitting effect of the first light source 30 is better.
Optionally, the first light source 30 is clamped between the first sound outlet hole 21 and the dust-proof portion 41, so as to ensure the connection stability between the first light source 30 and the first portion 421.
Alternatively, the dust-proof portion 41 is an accommodating structure that is opened toward the accommodating space 11. In this case, the thickness of the dust-proof portion 41 is small. The dust-proof part 41 has small obstruction to the sound emitted by the receiver, namely, the sound output quality of the receiver 72 is ensured.
Referring to fig. 5, the dust cover 40 further includes a connecting portion 43 disposed around the dust-proof portion 41. The connection portion 43 is located at a side of the first light source 30 facing away from the first portion 421. The light emitted from the first light source 30 is transmitted out of the electronic device 100 through the connecting portion 43.
In the present embodiment, the connection portion 43 is disposed around the dust-proof portion 41, so that the first light source 30 is protected by the connection portion 43, and external dust or moisture is prevented from entering the first sound outlet hole 21, thereby causing damage to the first light source 30.
Optionally, the connecting portion 43 is made of a light guide material or a transparent material. For example, the material of the connection portion 43 may be an Epoxy Molding Compound (EMC) material. The connecting portion 43 is made of a transparent material or a light guide material, so that light emitted from the first light source 30 can pass through the connecting portion to ensure the light emitting effect of the first light source 30.
Optionally, the connecting portion 43 abuts against the hole wall of the first sound outlet 21, that is, the connecting portion 43 is attached to the hole wall of the first sound outlet 21.
Referring to fig. 6, the electronic device 100 includes a sealing member 50. The sealing member 50 is fixed between the connecting portion 43 and the hole wall of the first sound outlet hole 21. At this time, the first light source 30 is sealed between the first portion 421 and the connection portion 43, thereby preventing moisture or dust from the outside from entering the first sound outlet hole 21 to damage the first light source 30. Optionally, the sealing member 50 is a transparent optical glue.
Referring to fig. 7, the surface of the connecting portion 43 facing the first light source 30 is provided with a plurality of protrusions 431. At this time, the protrusion 431 may converge the light emitted from the first light source 30, so that the light intensity of the light transmitted out of the first sound outlet hole 21 is stronger, that is, the light emitting effect of the electronic device 100 is better. At this time, when the user is in the dark, the light emitted from the first light source 30 may be used for illumination.
Optionally, the hole wall of the first sound outlet hole 21 is provided with a reflective layer (not shown). At this time, when the first light source 30 emits light, the reflective layer 211 can reflect the light passing through the hole wall of the first sound outlet hole 21, so that the part of the light is transmitted out of the electronic device 100 through the first sound outlet hole 21, and the intensity of the light transmitted out of the electronic device 100 through the first sound outlet hole 21 is further improved. At this time, the brightness of the light emitted through the first sound emitting hole 21 is stronger, the light emitting effect of the electronic device 100 is better, and the user experience is better.
Referring to fig. 8 in conjunction with any of the above embodiments, cover plate 20 includes a light-transmissive portion 22 attached to second portion 422. The surface of the translucent portion 22 facing the accommodation space 11 is provided with a recessed portion 221. The electronic device 100 comprises a second light source 60. The second light source 60 is mounted to a surface of the second portion 422 facing away from the receiving space 11. And the second light source 60 is accommodated in the recess 221. Light emitted by second light source 60 passes out of electronic device 100 through light-transmissive portion 22.
It can be understood that, by installing the second light source 60 on the surface of the second portion 422 away from the accommodating space 11 and accommodating the second light source 60 in the recess 221, on the one hand, the second light source 60 can be limited by the recess 221, so that the second light source 60 and the second portion 422 can be connected more firmly and reliably; on the other hand, the cover plate 20 may effectively protect the second light source 60, i.e., prevent the second light source 60 from being damaged by moisture or dust of the electronic device 100.
In addition, by disposing the second light source 60 on the surface of the second portion 422 facing away from the accommodating space 11, the light emitting effect of the electronic device 100 can be further improved, thereby further improving the user experience of the electronic device 100.
Optionally, a surface of light-transmitting portion 22 facing away from second light source 60 is provided with a hard layer. The hard layer may be made of, but not limited to, silicon nitride, so that the hardness of light-transmitting portion 22 is significantly increased, and damage to light-transmitting portion 22 due to collision with another member is avoided.
Alternatively, the recess 221 may be disposed around the first sound emitting hole 21. At this time, when the number of the second light sources 60 is plural, the plural second light sources 60 are disposed around the first sound outlet hole 21. At this time, when the second light source 60 emits light, the second light source 60 forms a light ring at the periphery of the first sound outlet hole 21, thereby causing the electronic apparatus 100 to have a cool light emitting effect.
Alternatively, the color of the light emitted by the second light source 60 is different from the color of the light emitted by the first light source 30. At this time, when the second light source 60 and the first light source 30 are simultaneously or separately turned on, the electronic device 100 will have a different color light emitting effect, that is, the electronic device 100 has a cool light emitting effect, so that the user experience of the electronic device 100 is significantly improved.
Optionally, the first light source 30 and the second light source 60 are electrically connected to the processor through a multi-way selector switch, so that the first light source 30 can emit light independently, the second light source 60 can emit light independently, and the first light source 30 and the second light source 60 can emit light simultaneously. In addition, the first light source 30 and the second light source 60 may alternately emit light.
Alternatively, the recess 221 communicates with the first sound emitting hole 21. It can be understood that, compared with the recess 221 being separated from the first sound outlet hole 21, the present embodiment can reduce the difficulty of processing the recess 221. In addition, when the second light source 60 emits light, at least a portion of the light emitted by the second light source 60 can be transmitted out of the electronic device 100 through the first sound hole 21, so as to further improve the brightness of the light transmitted out through the first sound hole 21.
Referring to fig. 9, a light equalizing film 222 is disposed on a surface of the recess 221 facing the second light source 60. At this time, when the light emitted from the second light source 60 passes through the light homogenizing film 222 and the light-transmitting portion 22 in sequence, the light is transmitted out of the electronic device 100. At this time, the light coming out of the electronic device 100 is softer.
Referring to fig. 10 in conjunction with any of the above embodiments, the electronic device 100 further includes a flexible circuit board 71 and a receiver 72. The flexible circuit board 71 is mounted to the accommodating space 11. The flexible circuit board 71 is provided with a third sound outlet hole 711. The third sound outlet hole 711 communicates with the second sound outlet hole 49. The receiver 72 is mounted to a surface of the flexible circuit board 71 facing away from the cover 20. The sound emitted from the receiver 72 is transmitted to the first sound emitting hole 21 through the third sound emitting hole 711. The flexible circuit board 71 is electrically connected to the first light source 30.
In the present embodiment, by disposing the receiver 72 and the flexible circuit board 71 in the accommodating space 11, and electrically connecting the receiver 72 to the flexible circuit board 71, the receiver 72 can receive an electrical signal through the flexible circuit board 71 and emit a sound according to the electrical signal, and the sound can pass through or via the flexible circuit board 71 to the first sound outlet hole 21 and then be transmitted out of the electronic device 100 through the first sound outlet hole 21.
In addition, the flexible circuit board 71 is disposed in the accommodating space 11, so that the first light source 30 is electrically connected to the flexible circuit board 71, and therefore, a worker can conveniently and electrically connect the first light source 30 to a device of the accommodating space 11, for example, the first light source 30 is electrically connected to a power supply, that is, the process of electrically connecting the first light source 30 to the power supply is simplified.
Optionally, referring again to fig. 10, the electronic device 100 includes a sealing body (not shown). The sealing body 73 is disposed between the cover plate 20 and the flexible circuit board 71. The sealing body can prevent the sound emitted by the receiver 72 from leaking out of the gap between the cover plate 20 and the flexible circuit board 71, thereby remarkably improving the sound output quality of the receiver 72. For example, the seal may be, but is not limited to, foam.
Optionally, the second portion 422 is provided with a first conductive hole (not shown) and a second conductive hole (not shown) which are disposed at an interval. The first conductive via is provided with a first conductive member (not shown). One end of the first conductive member is connected to one electrode of the first light source 30, and the other end is connected to the flexible circuit board 71. The second conductive via is provided with a second conductive member (not shown). One end of the second conductive member is connected to the other electrode of the first light source 30, and the other end is connected to the flexible circuit board 71. At this time, the first light source 30 may be energized by the power supply by electrically connecting the flexible circuit to the power supply. In addition, the first conductive member and the second conductive member may be made of ITO, magnesium, aluminum or silver.
Optionally, the power source is disposed on a surface of the flexible circuit board 71 facing away from the receiver 72, so that the power source, the flexible circuit board 71 and the receiver 72 are stacked in sequence along the Z direction of the electronic device 100, thereby saving the size of the electronic device 100 in the X direction.
Further, the projection of the power source on the surface of the flexible circuit board 71 facing away from the receiver 72 at least partially overlaps the projection of the receiver 72 on the surface of the flexible circuit board 71 facing away from the receiver 72. At this time, the area of arrangement of the power supply and the receiver 72 in the X direction of the electronic apparatus 100 is further reduced, thereby saving the size of the electronic apparatus 100 in the X direction.
Referring to fig. 11 in conjunction with any of the above embodiments, the electronic device 100 includes an ambient light sensor 81 and a processor 82. The ambient light sensor 81 and the processor 82 are both provided in the accommodating space 11. The processor 82 is electrically connected to the first light source 30 and the ambient light sensor 81. The ambient light sensor 81 is used to detect the intensity of ambient light in the environment where the electronic device 100 is located. And sends a light-up signal to the processor 82 when the ambient light intensity is less than or equal to the preset light intensity. The processor 82 is used for controlling the first light source 30 to emit light according to the lighting signal.
It is understood that the first light source 30 of the electronic device 100 emits light when the intensity of the ambient light is less than the preset light intensity. At this time, the user can see the effect of the electronic apparatus 100 emitting light, so that the user can feel the cool effect of the electronic apparatus 100. In addition, when the user places the electronic device 100 at a certain position, the user can quickly lock the position of the electronic device 100 through the light, so as to quickly find the electronic device 100.
It can be understood that the first light source 30 not only emits light under the condition that the ambient light intensity is lower than the preset light intensity, but also the first light source 30 can emit light under the following scenes, for example, the electronic device 100 receives an incoming call, a short message, a new message, or an alarm clock of the electronic device 100 reminds, and the like, and the first light source 30 can be triggered to emit light. At this time, when the electronic device 100 emits light, the user can quickly notice that the electronic device 100 has information to receive or a short message to receive.
Referring to fig. 12, the present embodiment provides a control method of an electronic device 100. The control method may be applied to the electronic apparatus 100. The electronic device 100 includes, but is not limited to, the electronic device 100 provided in any of the above embodiments. As shown in fig. 13, the electronic device 100 includes a housing 10, a cover plate 20, a dust cover 40, a first light source 30, and a processor 82. The cover plate 20 is mounted to the case 10 to form an accommodating space 11 with the case 10. The cover plate 20 is provided with a first sound outlet 21. The dust cover 40 is mounted to the cover plate 20. The dust cover 40 is opened with a second sound outlet 49. The second sound outlet hole 49 communicates with the first sound outlet hole 21. The first light source 30 is mounted on the dust cover 40, and the first light source 30 and the second sound outlet 49 are spaced apart from each other. The processor 82 is provided in the accommodating space 11. The processor is electrically connected to the first light source 30.
The control method comprises the following steps:
the processor 82 receives the ignition signal. Optionally, the electronic device 100 further comprises a display screen. The display screen is a touch screen. When a user clicks on the application software on the display screen, the user can manipulate the use of the application software. For example, when the user clicks a light source button on the display once, the display sends an illumination signal to the processor 82. Optionally, the electronic device 100 further comprises a microphone. When the user speaks into the microphone, the microphone sends a lighting signal to the processor 82 based on the content of the utterance.
The processor 82 controls the first light source 30 to emit light according to the lighting signal, so that the light is emitted out of the electronic device 100 through the first sound emitting hole 21.
In this embodiment, the processor 82 controls the first light source 30 to emit light according to the lighting signal, so that the light is emitted out of the electronic device 100 through the first sound emitting hole 21, and thus when the user uses the electronic device 100, the user can see a cool light emitting effect of the electronic device 100, and the user experience of the electronic device 100 is improved.
Alternatively, when the user clicks the light source button again, the display screen sends an off signal to the processor 82, so that the processor 82 controls the first light source 30 to be turned off according to the off signal.
Referring to fig. 11 again, the electronic device 100 further includes an ambient light sensor 81. The ambient light sensor 81 is provided in the accommodating space 11. The ambient light sensor 81 is electrically connected to the processor 82.
Before the processor 82 receives the lighting signal, the control method further includes:
the processor 82 controls the ambient light sensor 81 to detect the intensity of ambient light;
when the intensity of the ambient light is less than or equal to the preset light intensity, the processor 82 controls the ambient light sensor 81 to send a lighting signal.
Specifically, when the intensity of the ambient light detected by the ambient light sensor 81 is less than a predetermined light intensity (for example, at night), the processor 82 controls the first light source 30 to emit light, so that the user is in a weak or dark environment, the electronic device 100 can emit light, and the position of the electronic device 100 is prompted, so that the position of the electronic device 100 is quickly locked, and thus the electronic device 100 is quickly found, and the position of the first sound outlet hole 21 of the electronic device 100 can also be quickly found, so that the top and the bottom of the electronic device 100 are quickly determined.
Optionally, the electronic device 100 further comprises a delay circuit (not shown). The delay circuit is disposed in the accommodating space 11. The delay circuit is electrically connected to the processor 82.
The control method further comprises the following steps:
the processor 82 sends a first time signal to the timing circuit to cause the timing circuit to control the first light source 30 in the light-emitting state to be turned off after the first time elapses.
It can be understood that the first light source 30 in the light-emitting state is controlled to be turned off after the first time passes through the timing circuit, so that the first light source 30 is prevented from continuously emitting light to waste the electric energy of the electronic device 100, that is, the energy consumption of the electronic device 100 is reduced.
Optionally, a different time signal is sent by the processor 82 to the delay circuit to cause the first light source 30 to appear to flicker.
Alternatively, when the number of the first light sources 30 is plural, the plural first light sources 30 may simultaneously emit red light, green light, blue light, and the like. The first light source 30 may also emit light of different colors.
In other application scenarios, for example, when the processor 82 receives a trigger signal of an incoming call, a short message, a new message, or an alarm clock of the electronic device 100 for reminding, the processor 82 may also be triggered to emit a light-emitting signal to control the second light source 60 to emit light.
Referring to fig. 8, the cover plate 20 includes a light-transmitting portion 22 attached to the dust cover 40. The surface of the translucent portion 22 facing the accommodation space 11 is provided with a recessed portion 221. The electronic device 100 comprises a second light source 60. The second light source 60 is mounted to a surface of the dust cover 40 facing away from the accommodating space 11. And the second light source 60 is accommodated in the recess 221. Light emitted by second light source 60 passes out of electronic device 100 through light-transmissive portion 22. The second light source 60 is electrically connected to the processor 82.
The control method further comprises the following steps:
the processor 82 controls the second light source 60 to emit light according to the lighting signal.
At this time, when the second light source 60 is turned on, the light emitted by the second light source 60 is transmitted out of the electronic device 100. At this time, the user can see that the electronic device 100 has a cool light emitting effect, thereby further improving the user experience of the electronic device 100.
Optionally, a delay circuit may be disposed between the processor 82 and the second light source 60, and the light emitting time of the second light source 60 is controlled by the delay circuit. When the number of the second light sources 60 is plural, the plural second light sources 60 may be sequentially turned on or simultaneously turned on.
