Detailed Description
Referring to fig. 2, a schematic diagram of a side key device according to an embodiment of the invention is shown. The embodiment of the present invention is described by taking the application of the apparatus to mobile communication equipment such as a mobile phone as an example, but is not limited thereto. As shown in fig. 2, includes:
the keyboard comprises a shell 11, side keys 12, a spring Dome13, an FPC14, a support reinforcement piece 15, a PCB16 and an LCD 18.
The housing 11 is an exterior member of the cellular phone for protecting internal parts. The side key 12, which is a moving part, triggers the Dome13 after the forced movement reaches a certain stroke. Dome13, will deform after the atress, triggers the hardware signal. The FPC14, which is a flexible circuit board, transmits hardware signals. One side of the FPC14 is connected to the Dome13 to receive the side key force, and the other side is connected to the bracket reinforcement 15. The support reinforcement member 15 is used for supporting the Dome13 and the FPC14, and may be made of plastic or metal. The PCB16, i.e., a main board, is a circuit board of the mobile phone for transmitting various circuit signals.
In fig. 2, Dome13 and FPC14 may be bonded together by an adhesive, and FPC14 and support reinforcement member 15 may be bonded together by an adhesive. The bracket reinforcement member 15 is bonded to the PCB16, i.e., the main board, with a back adhesive. If the bracket reinforcing part is a metal part, the bracket reinforcing part can be welded on the main board.
FIG. 3 is a schematic view of a stent reinforcement according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 3, the bracket reinforcement 15 includes a first member 51 and a second member 52, and the first member 51 and the second member 52 are connected as an integral structure. The first part 51 of the support reinforcement is connected with one side of the FPC to support the stress of the FPC, and the second part 52 of the support reinforcement is connected with the mainboard PCB to support the mainboard.
It should be noted that the first member 51 may be vertically connected to the second member 52, i.e. in a vertical relationship, or connected in other ways. The connecting position of the first member 51 and the second member 52 may be a middle position, or a middle-lower position, of the first member 51. Specifically, the shape of the bracket reinforcement 15 may be, but is not limited to, a shape in which the first member 51 and the second member 52 form an L shape, and may be other shapes.
As can be seen from fig. 2 compared with fig. 1, in the embodiment of the present invention, the FPC reinforcing plate and the support rib on the housing are integrated into one support reinforcing member, so that the occupied space is reduced, and the width of the mobile phone can be reduced.
The reduced footprint of the stent reinforcement is analyzed as follows:
among the prior art, to the design mode of side key FPC's stiffening plate and brace rod, the stiffening plate is split into a part alone, and the brace rod sets up on the casing, consequently needs occupation space separately, and the brace rod occupies 0.6mm promptly, and the stiffening plate occupies 0.4 mm. In the structure of the prior art, the space required by the structure related to the side key FPC from Dome to LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) is 1.95mm, which is specifically shown in table 1 below:
| component part | Space required (unit: mm) |
| Dome | 0.3 |
| FPC | 0.25 |
| Reinforcement plate | 0.4 |
| Support rib | 0.6 |
| Gap | 0.4 |
| Total up to | 1.95 |
TABLE 1 statistical table of occupied space of existing structure
In the structure of the embodiment of the present invention, the space required by the structure related to the side key FPC from Dome to LCD is 1.55mm, which is specifically shown in table 2 below:
| component part | Space required (unit: mm) |
| Dome | 0.3 |
| FPC | 0.25 |
| Support reinforcement piece | 0.6 |
| Gap | 0.4 |
| Total up to | 1.55 |
Table 2 statistical table of occupied space of structure of the present invention
According to the embodiment of the invention, the reinforcing plate and the supporting ribs are integrated into the support reinforcing part, and one structural part is reduced, namely only the support reinforcing part occupies 0.6mm and is reduced by 0.4mm, so that the space required by the side key FPC related structure can be reduced by 0.4 mm. Considering that the left and right structures of the mobile phone are symmetrical with respect to the LCD, the total saved width can reach 0.8 mm.
In addition, the existing support rib and the shell are integrated and cannot be used independently, the support reinforcing part in the embodiment of the invention is an independent part, is separated from the shell and can be used independently, and the structural design freedom degree is higher, so that the use is convenient. The bracket reinforcing device provided by the embodiment of the invention has flexible form and no specific requirements on the shape, and can meet various environmental requirements.
The support reinforcing part of the embodiment of the invention can be a single part, can be made of plastic materials or metal materials, is not limited by shell materials and a mould structure any more, and is more flexible to use.
It should be noted that the present invention is described in terms of a structure in a mobile communication device such as a mobile phone, but is not limited thereto, and the scheme of the present invention can be adopted in any similar structure, i.e., a method of supporting FPC and Dome by using a single side key FPC holder.
The above description is only an embodiment of the present invention, and not intended to limit the scope of the present invention, and all modifications of equivalent structures and equivalent processes performed by the present specification and drawings, or directly or indirectly applied to other related technical fields, are included in the scope of the present invention.
