In other embodiments, the display screen 200 may also be a non-touch display screen, and is only used for displaying information.

Referring to fig. 1 and fig. 2, in an embodiment, the camera mounting assembly 300 includes a mounting base 310 and a camera 320 disposed on the mounting base 310, the camera 320 can provide functions of video call, photography and the like for the mobile terminal 10, and a light incident surface of the camera can be provided with dustproof glass to shield dust. It is understood that in other embodiments, the camera mounting assembly 300 may also include a light sensor, a flash, etc. disposed on the mounting base 310 for assisting the camera 320 in shooting, or other functional devices independent of the shooting function of the camera 320 (e.g., an iris recognition module, a face recognition module, a proximity sensor, an ambient light sensor, a microphone, a fingerprint module, etc.). The material of the mounting seat 310 may be, but is not limited to, metal, plastic, stainless steel, or the like.

Referring to fig. 1 and 2, the mobile terminal 10 has a receiving slot 1311. In one embodiment, the receiving slot 1311 is opened in the body 100. In an embodiment, the receiving slot 1311 is opened on the first side 131 of the body 100, that is, the receiving slot 1311 is opened on the top of the mobile terminal 10. Further, the receiving groove 1311 may be opened in the middle of the first side 131, that is, the receiving groove 1311 is located between the front surface 110 and the rear surface 120. Of course, the receiving groove 1311 may be opened at an edge of the first side 131 close to the rear surface 120. The mount 310 can move from a first position (shown in fig. 1 and 3) to a second position (shown in fig. 2 and 4) with the camera 320, when the mount 310 is at the first position, the mount 310 and the camera 320 are accommodated in the accommodating groove 1311, and when the mount 310 is at the second position, the light incident surface of the camera 320 is located outside the accommodating groove 1311, that is, the light incident surface of the camera 320 is exposed out of the body 100. Thus, when the camera 320 is needed to shoot, the mounting seat 310 carries the camera 320 to move out of the accommodating groove 1311, so as to shoot, and after the shooting is finished, the mounting seat 310 carries the camera 320 to move into the accommodating groove 1311, so that the space occupied by the camera 320 on one side of the display screen 200 can be eliminated, the coverage rate of the display screen 200 on the front surface 110 is increased, and the screen occupation ratio of the display screen 200 is improved. In an embodiment, when the mounting seat 310 is in the first position, a surface 311 of the mounting seat 310 exposed in the receiving groove 1311 is flush with the outer surface of the body 100, specifically flush with the first side surface 131. In this way, when the camera 320 is not needed for shooting, the structural integrity of the mobile terminal 10 can be ensured, and the beauty of the mobile terminal 10 can be increased.

In one embodiment, the mounting seat 310 is disposed in the receiving slot 1311 and can rotate relative to the body 100, and the mounting seat 310 can rotate to the outside of the receiving slot 1311 with the camera 320, so as to implement the shooting function of the camera 320. In one embodiment, the rotation axis of the mounting base 310 is perpendicular to a reference plane, which is a plane where the planar area of the display 200 is located, and may also be understood as a plane perpendicular to the thickness direction of the mobile terminal 10 (i.e., a plane perpendicular to the Y-axis shown in fig. 1, such as an XZ plane). In other embodiments, the rotation axis of the mount 310 passes through the center of a reference line, the reference line is a connection line of the maximum width of the orthographic projection of the mount 310 on a reference plane, and the reference plane is a plane perpendicular to the optical axis of the camera 320, that is, the rotation axis of the mount 310 is parallel to the optical axis of the camera 320. For convenience of description, the respective embodiments are explained below with reference to a reference plane. Further, in one embodiment, the axis of rotation of the mount 310 passes through the center of a circle circumscribing the orthographic projection of the mount 310 on the reference plane. In other embodiments, the axis of rotation of the mount 310 passes through the center of a reference line, which is a line connecting the maximum widths of the orthographic projections of the mount 310 on the reference plane. For example, as shown in fig. 3 and 4, when the orthographic projection of the mount 310 on the reference plane includes a region shaped as a major arch, the connecting line of the maximum width is the diameter of a circle circumscribing the major arch region.

The image capturing surface (i.e., the light incident surface) of the camera 320 faces the front surface 110, i.e., the side where the display screen 200 is located, and serves as a front camera. In an embodiment, the light incident surface of the camera 320 may also be away from the side where the display screen 200 is located, and used as a rear camera. Certainly, the mounting base 310 may also be provided with two cameras 320 at the same time, image capturing surfaces of the two cameras 320 face to one side of the display screen 200 and one side of the display screen 200 away from the one side of the display screen 200, that is, the two cameras are used as a front camera and a rear camera, at this time, when shooting is not needed, the front camera and the rear camera of the mobile terminal 10 can be hidden in the accommodating groove 1311, when shooting is needed by using the front camera or the rear camera, the mounting base 310 rotates to the second position, and light incident surfaces of the two cameras 320 are respectively exposed on one side of the display screen 200 and on one side of the display screen 200.

The functional devices such as the camera 320 may implement wireless data transmission with the motherboard of the mobile terminal 10 through the chip disposed on the mounting base 310, or implement data transmission with the motherboard of the mobile terminal 10 through the flexible circuit board or the elastic sheet. In one embodiment, the body includes a first uhf communication chip (not shown), the camera mounting assembly 300 includes a second uhf communication chip (not shown) disposed on the mounting block 310, the camera 320 is capable of being communicatively coupled to the second uhf communication chip, and the second hf communication chip is paired with the first uhf communication chip when the mounting block 310 is in the second position to enable the first uhf communication chip to be communicatively coupled to the second uhf communication chip.

In one embodiment, the first and second extreme high frequency communication chips are both extreme high frequency communication chips. The extremely high frequency communication chip is an IC (Integrated Circuit) chip in which an EHF (extremely high frequency) antenna is packaged, and when the two extremely high frequency communication chips are close enough, pairing can be completed to perform wireless communication. An example of an extremely high frequency communication chip is an EHF common link chip. The terms "common link chip," "common link chip package," and "EHF comm-link chip package" are used to refer to an EHF antenna embedded in an IC package. Examples of the chip for very high frequency communication can refer to the information described in the U.S. patent application publication nos. 2012/0263244 and 2012/0307932, and also refer to the information disclosed in chinese patent publications CN103563166A and CN 104145380A.

An example of an extremely high frequency communication chip can be found in the chinese granted patent publication No. CN 105264785B. The image collector of the camera equipped with the extremely high frequency communication chip (second extremely high frequency communication chip 350) can realize high-speed wireless transmission of data (for example, a transmission speed up to 6 GB/s) based on a high carrier frequency (for example, 60GHz) with the main board of the mobile terminal 10 equipped with the extremely high frequency communication chip (first extremely high frequency communication chip).

It can be understood that the high carrier frequency-based near field communication has the advantages of low power consumption, small volume, high transmission rate, non-contact transmission and the like, can also realize the function of a plug-and-play module, can greatly improve the signal integrity, support more flexible system realization, reduce the standby power consumption, increase the bandwidth amplitude and the safety of data transmission, and is compatible with the support of high-speed video signals and the like.

It will be appreciated that the high carrier frequency may be a carrier frequency that enables high speed wireless transmission of data. The high carrier frequency may be a specific carrier frequency, or may be a carrier frequency band, for example, 30GHz to 300GHz, which is not specifically limited in this embodiment of the present invention. Optionally, the high carrier frequency is 60 GHz.

As shown in fig. 3 and 4, the driver 400 is disposed in the body 100 and is used for driving the mounting seat 310 to rotate in the accommodating slot 1311 relative to the body 100. In an embodiment, the driver 400 includes a motor, the driver 400 is fixed to the body 100 (the driver 400 may be fixed to the body 100 by, for example, screwing, riveting, welding or bonding, for example, the driver 400 is fixed to a middle frame, a rear cover, or a front shell of the mobile terminal 10), and an output shaft of the driver 400 is connected to the mounting seat 310, so that the mounting seat 310 can rotate from the first position to the second position by the driver 400. It is understood that in other embodiments, the driver 400 is fixed to the mounting seat 310, and the output shaft of the driver 400 is connected to the body 100, so that the mounting seat 310 can be rotated from the first position to the second position under the driving of the driver 400. It should be noted that, after the mounting seat 310 with the camera 320 rotates to the second position, the mounting seat 310 may be automatically retracted into the receiving slot 1311 by the driver 400, and the mounting seat 310 may also be manually retracted. Among other things, the camera mounting assembly 300 and the driver 400 may form a mounting drive mechanism assembly, which may be separately assembled and produced and used for mounting to the mobile terminal 10.

In the mobile terminal 10, the driver 400 can drive the mounting base 310 to rotate with the camera 320 relative to the body 100, and rotate from the first position to the second position. When the mounting seat 310 is at the first position, the camera 320 is accommodated in the accommodating groove 1311, and when the mounting seat 310 is at the second position, the light incident surface of the camera 320 is exposed out of the body 100, so that the camera 320 can be selectively hidden and exposed according to the shooting use requirement. Therefore, the camera 320 does not occupy the space on the side of the display screen 200 or the rear cover, and the screen occupation ratio or the integrity of the rear cover of the mobile terminal 10 is effectively improved.

In one embodiment, as shown in fig. 5, the mounting seat 310 is provided with a mounting groove 310a, and the driver 400 is partially received in the mounting groove 310a in the extending direction of the rotation axis of the mounting seat 310. It is understood that in other embodiments, the driver 400 may be entirely received in the mounting groove 310a in the extending direction of the rotation axis of the mounting seat 310. In this way, since the driver 400 can be partially or entirely received in the mounting groove 310a, the structure is more compact, and the thickness of the body 100 can be reduced. In an embodiment, as shown in fig. 3, 4 and 5, a protrusion 410 is formed at an end of the driver 400 protruding from the mounting seat 310, a notch 1312 is formed on a wall of the receiving slot 1311, and a portion of the protrusion 410 is inserted through the notch 1312. In this way, the notch 1312 may form an avoidance space for the protrusion 410 to pass through, so that the mounting seat 310 may be closer to the edge of the mobile terminal 10, thereby enlarging the installation space inside the mobile terminal 10.

In one embodiment, as shown in fig. 3 and 4, the mount 310 is provided with a damping assembly 500 for damping the impact of the body 100 on the mount 310 during the rotation of the mount 310. In one embodiment, the damping assembly 500 may be disposed on a side peripheral wall of the mounting seat 310. The buffer assembly 500 can limit the rotation of the mounting seat 310, and when the mounting seat 310 rotates to at least one of the first position and the second position, the buffer assembly 500 can relieve the impact of the body 100 on the mounting seat 310. For example, when the mount 310 is rotated to the first position (refer to fig. 3), one side of the buffer assembly 500 can abut against the body 100, thereby relieving the impact of the body 100 on the mount 310. When the mount 310 is rotated to the second position (refer to fig. 4), the other opposite side of the damping assembly 500 can also abut against the body 100 to relieve the impact of the body 100 on the mount 310. It can be understood that, in other embodiments, the buffering assembly 500 may also be disposed on the body 100, at this time, when the mounting seat 310 rotates to at least one of the first position and the second position, the mounting seat 310 can abut against the buffering assembly 500 on the body 100, so that the impact of the body 100 on the mounting seat 310 is relieved through the buffering assembly 500 on the body 100, thereby avoiding the direct contact collision between the body 100 and the mounting seat 310 to generate a large abnormal sound, and improving the user experience.

In the following description, only the cushion unit 500 is provided on the mount 310 with reference to fig. 5, 6, and 7, but the cushion unit is not limited to be provided on the mount 310 and may be provided on the main body 100.

In an embodiment, the mounting base 310 includes a base 311 and a boss 312 disposed on a peripheral wall of a side of the base 311, the functional devices such as the camera 320 are disposed on the base 311, and the base 311 is driven by the driver 400 to rotate. The buffering assembly 500 includes an elastic member 520 disposed on the boss 312, and the elastic member 520 can abut against the body 100 to compress the elastic member 520 to accumulate a resilient force, so that the elastic member 520 can perform a good buffering function on the mounting seat 310 when the mounting seat 310 collides with the body 100 due to inertial motion. It should be noted that the boss 312 may be omitted, and in this case, the elastic element 520 may be directly disposed on the side peripheral wall of the mounting seat 310, that is, the side peripheral wall of the seat body 311. The elastic member 520 may include at least one of rubber, silicone, sponge, and spring. When the elastic member 520 is rubber, silicon rubber, or sponge, the elastic member 520 may be directly adhered to the side circumferential wall of the mounting seat 310.

In an embodiment, the elastic member 520 includes a first elastic member 521 and a second elastic member 522, when the mount 310 rotates to the first position, the first elastic member 521 can abut against the body 100 for relieving the impact of the body 100 on the mount 310, and when the mount 310 rotates to the second position, the second elastic member 522 can abut against the body 100 for relieving the impact of the body 100 on the mount 310. That is, when the mounting base 310 rotates to the first position and the second position, the opposite sides of the boss 312 can be abutted against the body 100 through the first elastic member 521 and the second elastic member 522, respectively.

An example of a possible way in which the above-described driver 400 controls the camera mounting assembly 300 is now given:

for example, a trigger key may be provided on the side 130 of the body 100. The trigger key connects to a motherboard within the mobile terminal 10. When the user presses or touches the trigger key, the trigger key sends a trigger signal to the processor on the motherboard, and the processor controls the driver 400, so that the mounting base 310 rotates out of the accommodating slot 1311 or retracts into the accommodating slot 1311 under the control of the driver 400. In an embodiment, when a user needs to use the camera 320 to shoot, the user presses the trigger key once, so that the mount 310 can rotate to a specified position (for example, a second position) outside the receiving slot 1311 under the control of the driver 400, at this time, the driver 400 stops working, and the user can use the camera 320 to perform video chat or self-timer operation. When the user does not need to shoot by using the camera 320, the user can push the trigger key once again to retract the mounting seat 310 into the receiving slot 1311 under the control of the driver 400. Of course, the number of the trigger keys may be two, one of the trigger keys is used to rotate the mounting base 310 out of the receiving slot 1311 to a designated position (for example, a second position) under the control of the driver 400, and the other trigger key is used to retract the mounting base 310 into the receiving slot 1311 under the control of the driver 400.

In other embodiments, the trigger key may also be a touch icon disposed on the display screen 200, and clicking the touch icon can send a related touch signal to a processor on the motherboard, and the processor receives the touch signal and executes a corresponding command according to the control signal, so that the driver 400 drives the mounting base 310 to rotate out of the accommodating slot 1311 or retract into the accommodating slot 1311.

For example, the trigger keys may be a start shooting icon and an end shooting icon provided in the display screen 200. When the icon to be shot is touched, the icon to be shot sends a first trigger signal to the processor of the motherboard, and the processor receives the first trigger signal and controls the driver 400 to drive the mounting seat 310 to rotate to a specified position (for example, a second position) outside the accommodating groove 1311, so that the camera 320 can shoot under the shooting signal. When the shooting icon is touched to be finished, the shooting finishing icon sends a second trigger signal to the processor of the mainboard, and the processor receives the second trigger signal and controls the driver 400 to drive the mounting seat 310 to retreat into the accommodating groove 1311.
