Detailed Description

The technical solutions in 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, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without inventive step, are within the scope of the present disclosure.

Reference herein to "an embodiment" or "an implementation" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with the embodiment or implementation can be included in at least one embodiment of the application. The appearances of the phrase in various places in the specification are not necessarily all referring to the same embodiment, nor are separate or alternative embodiments mutually exclusive of other embodiments. It is explicitly and implicitly understood by one skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.

It should be noted that the terms "first", "second", and the like in the description and claims of the present application and in the above-described drawings are used for distinguishing different objects and not for describing a particular order. Furthermore, the terms "include" and "have," as well as any variations thereof, are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions.

Referring to fig. 1, fig. 2 and fig. 3 together, fig. 1 is a schematic view illustrating a transparent state of a shielding member in a decoration device according to an embodiment of the present application; FIG. 2 is a schematic view of the covering of the trim assembly of FIG. 1 in a non-transparent state; FIG. 3 is a schematic cross-sectional view taken along line I-I of the decoration device of FIG. 1 according to an embodiment. The decoration assembly 100 is used for decorating a to-be-decorated object, which may be, but is not limited to, a decorative housing of an electronic device, for example, a battery cover, a middle frame, and the like of a mobile phone are exposed to the outside and can be observed by a user; frame, straps, etc. of wearable electronic devices, such as spectacle frames, watch straps, etc. The decoration device 100 comprises a driving device 110 and a shading device 120. The driving device 110 includes a flow channel 111 and a driving element 112, the flow channel 111 is filled with a filling liquid 111a and an ornament 111b, when the driving element 112 operates, the driving element 112 is used to drive the filling liquid 111a to drive the ornament 111b to move in the flow channel 111, and when the driving element 112 stops operating, the filling liquid 111a stops moving. The shielding device 120 is disposed at one side of the decoration 111b, the shielding device 120 is configured to receive a control signal, and when the driving element 112 is operated, the shielding device 120 is in a transparent state under the control of the control signal; when the decoration 111b stops working, the shielding device 120 is in a non-transparent state under the control of the control signal to shield the driving device 110.

The flow channel 111 may be hollow and have a certain length, and is used for accommodating the filling liquid 111a and the decoration 111 b. The material of the flow channel 111 may be, but not limited to, polymer, plastic, etc.

The filling liquid 111a may also be referred to as working fluid liquid or working fluid. The filling liquid 111a has a certain fluidity and flows in the flow channel 111 when the filling liquid 111a is driven by the driving force of the driving member 112. The filling liquid 111a may be, but not limited to, a liquid such as silicone oil, vegetable oil, water, ethanol (also referred to as alcohol), glycerol, or the like.

The decorative part 111b may be, but not limited to, decorative particles, decorative powder, decorative film, decorative block, etc. having a decorative property. The shape of the garnish 111b is not limited herein. The decorative part 111b may be, but not limited to, decorative particles, decorative powder, decorative film or decorative block with variable or specific colors or reflective colors or fluorescent colors. In one embodiment, when the decoration 111b is a color-changeable decoration 111b, the decoration 111b may change with a change in temperature. In another embodiment, when the deco 111b is a variable-color deco 111b, the color of the deco 111b may be varied according to the variation of the light irradiated to the deco 111 b. It is to be understood that the above two embodiments are not to be construed as limiting the color-changeable garnish 111 b. When the decoration 111b is a decoration 111b having fluorescence, a fluorescent effect can be achieved at night. The decorative member 111b may be distributed in the filling liquid 111a or float in the filling liquid 111a, and the manner in which the decorative member 111b is disposed in the filling liquid 111a is not limited as long as the decorative member 111b can move along with the movement of the filling liquid 111 a. The decorative piece 111b may move with the movement of the filling liquid 111a in a direction that is, but not limited to, the same or substantially the same as the movement direction of the filling liquid 111a carrying the decorative piece 111 b; even more, the direction of movement of the decorative piece 111b is opposite, or even substantially opposite, to the direction of movement of the fluid fill 111a carrying the decorative piece 111b, provided that the decorative piece 111b moves with the movement of the fluid fill 111a carrying the decorative piece 111 b.

The filling liquid 111a is generally transparent, and is difficult to be visually and organoleptically captured when the filling liquid 111a flows in the flow channel 111. Therefore, the filling liquid 111a and the decoration 111b are provided in the flow channel 111, and when the decoration 111b moves along with the movement of the filling liquid 111a, a dynamic effect of flow can be exhibited.

The number of the driving members 112 may be one or more, and is not limited herein. The driving member 112 may be, but is not limited to, a micro-liquid pump (which may be simply referred to as a micro-pump). The liquid pump may be a piezoelectric pump that uses the piezoelectric principle to effect the driving of the flow of liquid. In other embodiments, the driving member 112 may also be an object, for example, the driving member 112 may be a laser capable of driving the liquid to move or an ultrasonic device capable of driving the liquid to flow, etc. The manner of driving the filling liquid 111a by the driving element 112 may be, but is not limited to, unidirectional movement, reciprocating circular movement, circumferential movement, etc., and the manner of driving the filling liquid 111a by the driving element 112 is not limited herein.

When the driving element 112 is operated, the driving element 112 drives the filling liquid 111a to move, and drives the decoration element 111b to move, and the decoration element 111b has a decoration effect, so that the decoration element 111b moves along with the filling liquid 111a, and a dynamic movement effect is presented. However, when the driving element 112 stops working, the filling liquid 111a stops moving, and the decoration element 111b continuously settles and gathers in the filling liquid 111a, thereby affecting the effect of the decoration device 100. For example, when the filling liquid 111a is water and the decoration 111b is decoration powder such as mica powder, the density of the mica powder is 3.4-3.6 g/cm³And the density of water is 1g/cm³. It should be understood that, in the above description, the density of the decoration 111b is greater than the density of the filling liquid 111a, when the driving element 112 stops operating, the distribution effect of the decoration 111b in the filling liquid 111a is not good, in other embodiments, the density of the decoration 111b may be less than or equal to the density of the filling liquid 111a, as long as the driving element 112 stops operating, and the distribution of the decoration 111b in the filling liquid 111a is not good.

When the driving member 112 is operated, the shielding device 120 is in a transparent state under the control of the control signal, including that a local area of the shielding device 120 is in a transparent state under the control of the control signal, or that the whole area of the shielding device 120 is in a transparent state, as long as at least a part of the driving device 110 can be penetrated. It is understood that when the shielding device 120 is in the transparent state, the light transmittance of the shielding device 120 is greater than or equal to a first predetermined light transmittance, for example, the first predetermined light transmittance is equal to 80%.

When the driving device 110 stops operating, the shielding device 120 is in a non-transparent state, and the light transmittance of the shielding device 120 is less than or equal to a second predetermined light transmittance, for example, the second predetermined light transmittance may be, but is not limited to, 15%.

In the decoration assembly 100 provided by the embodiment of the application, the driving element 112 drives the filling liquid 111a to move so as to drive the decoration element 111b to move in the flow channel 111, so that the dynamic movement effect of the filling liquid 111a is shown. In addition, since the decoration 111b has a decoration, the decoration 111b may realize a dazzling effect of a dynamic Color-Material-process (Color, Material & Finishing, CMF) when moving with the filling liquid 111 a. When the driving device 110 is in operation, the shielding device 120 is in a transparent state, and the dynamic dazzle color effect can be observed; when the driving device 110 stops working, the shielding device 120 is in a non-light-transmitting state, and further shields the driving device 110, so as to prevent the decorative piece 111b from being poorly distributed in the filling liquid 111 a. Therefore, the decoration device 100 provided by the embodiment of the application has a good appearance effect and a good appearance identification degree.

Referring to fig. 4, fig. 4 is a schematic structural diagram of a cross section of the decoration device shown in fig. 3 according to an embodiment. The shielding device 120 includes a first substrate 121, a first electrode layer 122, a second substrate 123, a second electrode layer 124, and a liquid crystal layer 125. The first substrate 121 is disposed on one side of the decoration device 100. The first electrode layer 122 is disposed on a side of the first substrate 121 facing away from the driving device 110. The second substrate 123 is opposite to the first substrate 121 and is disposed at an interval, the second substrate 123 is disposed away from the driving device 110 compared to the first substrate 121, and the second substrate 123 and the first substrate 121 cooperate with each other to form an accommodating space. The second electrode layer 124 is disposed on the second substrate 123 at a side adjacent to the first electrode layer 122, and the first electrode layer 122 and the second electrode layer 124 are used for receiving the control signal. The liquid crystal layer 125 is disposed in the accommodating space and is configured to be in a transparent state or a non-transparent state under the control of the control signal. In other words, the shielding device 120 is a liquid crystal shielding device. When the shielding device 120 is a Liquid Crystal shielding device, the shielding device 120 may be a Liquid Crystal shielding device formed using a Polymer Dispersed Liquid Crystal (PDLC) technology.

The first substrate 121 is transparent, and the material of the first substrate 121 may be, but not limited to, Polyethylene terephthalate (PET), plastic, and the like. The second substrate 123 may be made of, but not limited to, polyethylene terephthalate, plastic, and the like. The material of the second substrate 123 may be the same as that of the first substrate 121, or may be different from that of the first substrate 121.

The first electrode layer 122 may be made of a transparent conductive material, or may be made of a non-transparent conductive material. When the first electrode layer 122 is made of a transparent conductive material, the material of the first electrode layer 122 may be, but is not limited to, Indium Tin Oxide (ITO), Indium Gallium Zinc Oxide (IGZO), and the like. When the material of the first electrode layer 122 is transparent, the electrodes in the first electrode layer 122 may be a whole layer. When the first electrode layer 122 is made of a non-transparent conductive material, the material of the first electrode layer 122 may be, but is not limited to, a metal or an alloy such as copper, silver, aluminum, and the like. When the first electrode layer 122 is made of a non-transparent conductive material, the electrodes in the first electrode layer 122 are disposed on the first substrate 121 to form a hollow area for light to pass through.

The second electrode layer 124 may be made of a transparent material or a non-transparent material. When the second electrode layer 124 is made of a transparent conductive material, the second electrode layer 124 may be made of, but not limited to, ITO, IGZO, or the like. When the material of the second electrode layer 124 is transparent, the electrodes in the second electrode layer 124 may be a whole layer. When the second electrode layer 124 is made of a non-transparent conductive material, the material of the second electrode layer 124 may be, but is not limited to, a metal or an alloy such as copper, silver, aluminum, and the like. When the second electrode layer 124 is made of a non-transparent conductive material, the electrodes of the second electrode layer 124 are disposed on the second substrate 123 to form a hollow area for light to pass through. The first electrode layer 122 and the second electrode layer 124 may be made of the same material or different materials. In one embodiment, the first electrode layer 122 is a positive electrode, and the second electrode layer 124 is a negative electrode. In another embodiment, the first electrode layer 122 is a negative electrode, and the second electrode layer 124 is a positive electrode.

The liquid crystal layer 125 is composed of liquid crystal droplets and a polymer matrix. When the first electrode layer 122 and the second electrode layer 124 are applied with a voltage as a control signal, the optical axes of the liquid crystal droplets in the liquid crystal layer 125 are aligned under the action of an electric field, and light can freely pass through the cross sections of the liquid crystal droplets and the polymer, so that the liquid crystal layer 125 is in a transparent state, that is, the shielding device 120 is in a transparent state. When the voltage applied to the first electrode layer 122 and the second electrode layer 124 is turned off (i.e., when the control signals of the first electrode layer 122 and the second electrode layer 124 are 0V), the optical axes of the liquid crystal droplets are restored to the disordered arrangement state, and at this time, when the light encounters the liquid crystal droplets and the polymer matrix, scattering occurs easily, and thus, the light cannot penetrate through the shielding device 120 and assumes a non-transparent state.

Referring further to fig. 4, the shielding device 120 further includes a support 126 (Spacer). The supporting member 126 is disposed on at least one of the first substrate 121 and the second substrate 123, and is located in the accommodating space for supporting the first substrate 121 and the second substrate 123.

The number of the supporters 126 may be one or more, and generally, the number of the supporters 126 is more than one, so as to better support the first substrate 121 and the second substrate 123 and prevent the first substrate 121 and the second substrate 123 from collapsing.

In the present embodiment, a portion of the supporting members 126 is disposed on the first substrate 121, and another portion of the supporting members 126 is disposed on the second substrate 123. In other embodiments, the support members 126 may be entirely disposed on the first substrate 121, or in other embodiments, the support members 126 may be entirely disposed on the second substrate 123. In this embodiment, a gap is formed between one end of the support 126 disposed on the first substrate 121, which is away from the first substrate 121, and the second substrate 123, and when the first substrate 121 and the second substrate 123 are pressed, the support 126 disposed on the first substrate 121 can support the first substrate 121 and the second substrate 123 to maintain the accommodating space between the first substrate 121 and the second substrate 123; in addition, the gap is formed, so that when the first substrate 121 and the second substrate 123 are pressed, the second substrate 123 can move a distance relative to the first substrate 121, a space for deformation is provided for the first substrate 121 or the second substrate 123, and the first substrate 121 and the second substrate 123 are prevented from being punctured. Similarly, a gap is formed between one end of the supporting member 126 disposed on the second substrate 123, which faces away from the second substrate 123, and the first substrate 121, and when the second substrate 123 and the first substrate 121 are pressed, the supporting member 126 disposed on the second substrate 123 can support the second substrate 123 and the first substrate 121, so as to maintain the accommodating space between the second substrate 123 and the first substrate 121; in addition, the gap also enables the first substrate 121 to move a distance relative to the second substrate 123 when the second substrate 123 and the first substrate 121 are pressed, so as to provide a space for deformation of the second substrate 123 or the first substrate 121, and prevent the second substrate 123 and the first substrate 121 from being punctured.

In an embodiment, the shielding device 120 further includes a first alignment layer and a second alignment layer. The first alignment layer is disposed on a side of the first electrode layer 122 facing away from the first substrate 121, and the second alignment layer is disposed on a side of the second electrode layer 124 facing away from the second substrate 123. The first alignment layer and the second alignment layer cooperate to cause the liquid crystal layer 125 to have an initial alignment.

Referring to fig. 4, the driving device 110 further includes a first cover plate 1111, a second cover plate 1112, and a runner layer 1113. The first cover plate 1111 is spaced apart from the second cover plate 1112, and the second cover plate 1112 is disposed adjacent to the shielding device 120 compared to the first cover plate 1111. The flow channel layer 1113 is sandwiched between the first cover plate 1111 and the second cover plate 1112, and the flow channel layer 1113 cooperates with the first cover plate 1111 and the second cover plate 1112 to form the flow channel 111. The trim component 100 also includes a first adhesive layer 161. The first adhesive layer 161 adheres the second cover plate 1112 and the first substrate 121.

The first cover 1111 is transparent, and the material of the first cover 1111 may be, but not limited to, polyethylene terephthalate, plastic, and the like. The second cover 1112 may be made of, but not limited to, polyethylene terephthalate, plastic, and the like. The second cover 1112 may be made of the same material as the first cover 1111, or may be made of a different material from the first cover 1111.

The flow channel layer 1113 and the first cover plate 1111 and the second cover plate 1112 may be bonded or welded by laser to form a sealed flow channel 111 therebetween. The first cover plate 1111 is typically greater than or equal to 20 microns thick and the second cover plate 1112 is typically greater than or equal to 20 microns thick. When the thickness of the first cover plate 1111 is less than 20 micrometers and the thickness of the second cover plate 1112 is less than 20 micrometers, it is difficult to seal the flow channel layer 1113, the first cover plate 1111 and the second cover plate 1112, which is generally difficult to cause the first cover plate 1111 and the second cover plate 1112 to collapse due to the insufficient rigidity of the first cover plate 1111 and the second cover plate 1112 when the driving member 112 is installed. In this embodiment, the thickness of the first cover plate 1111 is greater than or equal to 20 micrometers, and the thickness of the second cover plate 1112 is greater than or equal to 20 micrometers, so that the first cover plate 1111 and the second cover plate 1112 have greater rigidity and are not easy to collapse, and when the runner layer 1113, the first cover plate 1111 and the second cover plate 1112 are sealed, the sealing effect is better.

The first Adhesive layer 161 adheres the second cover plate 1112 and the first substrate 121, and the first Adhesive layer 161 may be, but not limited to, Optical Clear Adhesive (OCA) or optical surface Adhesive (facecoat). The first adhesive layer 161 typically has a thickness of greater than or equal to 10 microns. When the first adhesive layer 161 is smaller than 10 μm, and the first adhesive layer 161 adheres the second cover plate 1112 and the first substrate 121, the first adhesive layer 161 has poor ability of filling the gap between the second cover plate 1112 and the first substrate 121, and a large amount of bubbles are easily generated during the attaching process, thereby causing poor adhesion effect. Therefore, the thickness of the first adhesive layer 161 is selected to be greater than or equal to 10 μm, and thus the first adhesive layer 161 adheres the second cover plate 1112 and the first substrate 121 well.

Referring to fig. 5, fig. 5 is a schematic structural diagram of a cross section of the decoration device shown in fig. 3 according to another embodiment. In this embodiment, the shielding device 120 includes a first substrate 121, a first electrode layer 122, a second substrate 123, a second electrode layer 124, and a liquid crystal layer 125. The first substrate 121 is disposed at one side of the decoration 111 b. The first electrode layer 122 is disposed on a side of the first substrate 121 facing away from the decoration 111 b. The second substrate 123 is disposed opposite to the first substrate 121, the second substrate 123 is disposed at an interval with the first substrate 121 on a side of the first substrate 121 facing away from the driving device 120, and the second substrate 123 and the first substrate 121 cooperate with each other to form a receiving space. The second electrode layer 124 is disposed on a side of the second substrate 123 adjacent to the first electrode layer 122, and the first electrode layer 122 and the second electrode layer 124 are used for receiving the control signal. The liquid crystal layer 125 is disposed in the accommodating space and is configured to be in a transparent state or a non-transparent state under the control of the control signal. For a detailed description of each component of the shielding device 120, please refer to the foregoing description, and the detailed description is omitted here.

In this embodiment, the driving device 110 further includes a flow channel layer 1113 and a first cover 1111. The flow channel layer 1113 is disposed on one side of the first substrate 121. The first cover plate 1111 is disposed on a side of the flow channel layer 1113 facing away from the first substrate 121, and the first cover plate 1111, the flow channel layer 1113 and the first substrate 121 cooperate with each other to form the flow channel 111.

In the present embodiment, the first cover plate 1111, the flow channel layer 1113 and the first substrate 121 cooperate with each other to form the flow channel 111, that is, the flow channel 111 in the driving device 110 shares the first substrate 121 in the shielding device 120. Therefore, the thickness of the decoration device 100 provided by the embodiment of the present application is relatively thin.

Referring to fig. 6 and 7 together, fig. 6 is a schematic structural diagram illustrating a cross section of the decoration device shown in fig. 3 according to another embodiment; FIG. 7 is a schematic cross-sectional view of the decoration device shown in FIG. 3 according to still another embodiment. In this embodiment, the decoration device 100 comprises a texture film 150 in addition to the driving means 110 and the shading means 120. The trim component 100 shown in fig. 6 is illustrated by way of example in fig. 4 and its associated description in which the trim component 100 further includes a textured film 150. The trim component 100 shown in fig. 7 is illustrated by way of example in which the trim component 100 further includes a textured film 150 that is incorporated into fig. 5 and its associated description.

With reference to fig. 6 and 7, the textured film 150 has a texture, and the textured film 150 is disposed on a side of the driving device 110 facing away from the shielding device 120. Since the textured film 150 has the texture, when the shielding device 120 is in the transparent state, the texture of the textured film 150 can be transmitted through the shielding device 120, so that the decoration effect of the decoration device 100 is more abundant.

In the present embodiment, the textured film 150 includes a base 151 and a textured layer 152 stacked in this order. The texture layer 152 is disposed on a side of the substrate 151 facing away from the driving device 110. The substrate 151 may be, but is not limited to, a polymer substrate. The texture layer 152 may be, but is not limited to, a nano-texture layer 152.

The color layer 153 is disposed on a side of the texture layer 152 facing away from the substrate 151, and the protection layer 154 is disposed on a side of the color layer 153 facing away from the texture layer 152. When the textured film 150 includes the color layer 153, the textured film 150 has a better color effect. The protective layer 154 is used to protect the color layer 153 from being worn away due to the color layer 153 being exposed. The material of the protection layer 154 may be, but is not limited to, paint, and therefore, the protection layer 154 may also be referred to as a primer layer.

In fig. 6 and 7, the decoration device 100 further includes a second adhesive layer 162, and the second adhesive layer 162 adheres the substrate 151 and the driving device 110. Specifically, the second adhesive layer 162 adheres the substrate 151 and the first cover plate 1111.

The second adhesive layer 162 may be, but not limited to, OCA, double-sided tape. The second adhesive layer 162 typically has a thickness of greater than or equal to 10 microns. When the second adhesive layer 162 is smaller than 10 μm and the second adhesive layer 162 adheres the second cover plate 1112 and the first substrate 121, the second adhesive layer 162 has poor ability to fill the gap between the substrate 151 and the first cover plate 1111, and a large amount of bubbles are easily generated during the bonding process, thereby causing poor adhesion effect. Therefore, the thickness of the second adhesive layer 162 is selected to be greater than or equal to 10 μm, so that the second adhesive layer 162 adheres the substrate 151 and the first cover 1111 better.
