Logo structure and electronic device using the same

The present invention relates to a logo structure and an electronic device using the same.

The logo is widely used in digital products such as mobile phones, notebook computers, and tablets, and it has the function of conveying information, identifying a brand or a product. However, the typical traditional logos are flat and appear to be commonplace in the vast majority of similar products and are not easy to attract consumers.

In view of this, it is necessary to provide a logo structure with a unique visual effect. The logo structure includes a transparent layer and a logo. The transparent layer includes opposing first and second surfaces, the logo being disposed on one side of the second surface of the transparent layer or disposed between the first surface and the second surface, the first The surface is provided with a curved structure at the position of the logo.

It is also necessary to provide an electronic device. The electronic device includes a housing including the logo structure described above, a first surface of the transparent layer being located on an outer surface of the housing.

Compared with the prior art, the logo structure provided by the present invention and the electronic device using the same can display a three-dimensional logo, which is easy to attract the attention of consumers to stand out in the same category.

As shown in FIG. 1 , a schematic diagram of a logo structure 100 provided by an embodiment of the present invention applied to an electronic device 1 is shown. The electronic device 1 includes a housing 10 and a functional component 20 received in the housing 10 . The logo structure 100 is disposed on the housing 10. The functional component 20 includes components such as a touch module, a display module, and a backlight module. It can be understood that the logo structure 100 of the present invention can also be applied to other fields, and the illustrated electronic device 1 is only for convenience of understanding the present invention, and is not limited thereto.

As shown in FIG. 2, the logo structure 100 includes a transparent layer 12, a light shielding layer 14, and a logo 16. The transparent layer 12 is located on an outer surface of the housing 10. The material of the transparent layer 12 is selected from one of glass, acrylic, and rubber, and combinations thereof. The light shielding layer 14 may be formed of a light shielding material such as ink by a light shielding film. The logo 16 may be formed of a material different in color from the light shielding layer 14 so as to be distinguished from the light shielding layer 14 so as to be easily noticed. In the embodiment, the logo 16 and the light shielding layer 14 is disposed on the same level and is surrounded by the light shielding layer 14. In other embodiments, the logo 16 may be disposed directly on the light shielding layer 14 , that is, between the transparent layer 12 and the light shielding layer 14 , which is not limited thereto.

The transparent layer 12 includes opposing first and second surfaces 121, 122. The first surface 121 is located on an outer surface of the housing 10. In the embodiment, the light shielding layer 14 and the logo 16 are disposed on a side of the transparent layer 12 adjacent to the second surface 122. In other embodiments, the light shielding layer 14 and the logo 16 may also be disposed between the first surface 121 and the second surface 122. The first surface 121 is provided with a curved structure 123 at a position facing the logo 16 .

In this embodiment, the transparent layer 12 is a single layer structure, that is, the transparent layer 12 is formed only by a transparent material, and the first surface 121 and the second surface 122 are opposite surfaces of the same transparent material. . In the embodiment, the curved structure 123 is a protrusion 123a disposed on the first surface 121, and further, the protrusion 123a has a circular arc shape.

As shown in FIG. 3, the logo structure provided by the second embodiment of the present invention is substantially the same as the logo structure provided by the first embodiment, except that the curved structure 123 is formed on the first surface 121. The upper pit 123b, further, the shape of the recess 123b is a circular arc shape.

As shown in FIG. 4, the logo structure provided by the third embodiment of the present invention is substantially the same as the logo structure provided by the first embodiment, except that the curved structure 123 is an adjacently connected protrusion 123a and A wavy pattern formed by the dimples 123b.

By the above-mentioned protrusion 123a, the pit 123b, and the transparent curved structure 123 of a wave shape or the like, the logo 16 provided at the corresponding position of the curved structure 123 can be enlarged. A variety of perspective effects, such as reduction, distortion, and so on, are easily noticed by consumers, and thus stand out among many similar products.

As shown in FIG. 5 to FIG. 7, the logo structure provided by the fourth embodiment of the present invention is substantially the same as the logo structure provided by the first to third embodiments, except that the logo structure 100 further includes settings. A second curved structure 124 at the second surface 122. Similar to the curved structure 123, the second curved structure 124 may be a second protrusion 124a formed on the second surface 122, a second recess 124b or a second protrusion 124a connected by an adjacent one. One or a combination of the wavy patterns formed by the second pits 124b. Similarly, the second protrusion 124a and the second recess 124b have a circular arc shape. As shown in FIG. 8 to FIG. 13 , the second curved structure 124 can also form a plurality of non-planar patterns on the first surface 121 and the second surface 122 of the transparent layer, respectively, in combination with the plurality of combinations of the curved structures 123. Give the logo 16 a more colorful perspective.

As shown in FIG. 14, the logo structure provided by the fifth embodiment of the present invention is substantially the same as the logo structure provided by the fourth embodiment, except that the transparent layer 12 has a multilayer structure. Specifically, the transparent layer 12 includes a first transparent layer 12a, a second transparent layer 12b, and a color transparent layer 12c interposed between the first transparent layer 12a and the second transparent layer 12b. The first surface 121 is located on a side of the first transparent layer 12a away from the color transparent layer 12c, and the second surface 122 is located on a side of the second transparent layer 12b away from the color transparent layer 12c. The color transparent layer 12c includes a color area A and an achromatic area B, and the color area A is surrounded by the achromatic area B. The color area A is formed of a color transparent material, and the color area A is disposed at least at a position facing the logo 16. The color of the achromatic region B may be the same as or different from the light shielding layer 14, or may be transparent. In other implementations In the manner, the color area A may also extend to fill the entire color transparent layer 12c. While the logo 16 has a colorful perspective effect, the logo 16 can be made more beautiful by the colored transparent layer 12c, and a more diverse display effect can be brought about. It can be understood that the transparent layer 12 of the multilayer structure in the present embodiment can also be combined with the plurality of logo structures 100 in the fourth embodiment described above to provide a richer display effect.

In summary, the creation meets the requirements of the invention patent, and the patent application is filed according to law. However, the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and those skilled in the art will be equivalently modified or changed according to the spirit of the present invention.
