Each framework is divided into a front side and a back side: the front face is basically a large slot reserved for the display screen and possibly also the interface required for the front camera/speaker. On the back of the phone, you will see horizontal and vertical parting lines, called "spine" and "ribs", respectively, which will divide the back into 1x1, 1x2, or 2x2 squares for placing different modules. The modules of such a handset are fixed in these grids by means of Electro Permanent Magnets (EPM). An electro-permanent magnet is a mixture of an electromagnet and a common permanent magnet that can be turned on or off by passing current.

[ detailed description ] embodiments

Hereinafter, an embodiment of the electronic device 100 of the present invention will be described with reference to fig. 1 to 10.

Referring to fig. 1 to 5, a first embodiment of an electronic device 100 of the present invention includes a frame 1, a plurality of modules 2 detachably mounted on the frame 1, and an elastic member 3 for connecting the modules 2 to the frame 1. The frame 1 extends in a horizontal plane and defines a length direction and a width direction perpendicular to the length direction, along which the modules 2 are mounted and dismounted. The present invention is described with reference to the first drawing for convenience only and is not limited thereto.

Referring to fig. 1 to 4, the framework 1 includes an upper surface 11 and a lower surface 12 opposite to the upper surface 11. The upper surface 11 is provided with a large slot 111 reserved for the display screen. The lower surface 12 comprises a plurality of transverse and vertical dividing ribs 121, and the dividing ribs 121 divide the lower surface 12 into a plurality of accommodating grooves 122 with different sizes for accommodating different modules 2. Each of the receiving grooves 122 includes a recess 1221 formed on both side edge dividing ribs 121.

Referring to fig. 3 to 5, the module 2 includes a plurality of modules with different sizes. Each module 2 includes a module body 21 and a housing 22 engaged with the module body 21 to form a receiving space 20. The module body 21 is box-shaped and includes a bottom wall 211 and a sidewall 212 vertically extending from the bottom wall 211. The pair of opposite sidewalls 212 laterally protrudes with a holding block 213 and the sidewall 212 is provided with a hole 214 beside the holding block 213.

Referring to fig. 5, the elastic element 3 is in the form of a pair of cantilevers and is symmetrically mounted on the pair of opposite sidewalls 212 of the module 2. The elastic member 3 includes an elastic portion 31 positioned to be engaged with the holding block 213 and a protrusion 32 integrally formed at one end of the elastic portion 31 and extending out of the module 2 through the hole 214. When the module 2 provided with the elastic element 3 is mounted on the framework 1, the protrusion 32 is pressed by the dividing rib 121 to be compressed inwards to make the elastic part 31 deform elastically, the elastic part 31 releases the elasticity to make the protrusion 32 protrude into the groove 1221, so that the module 2 is mounted in place relative to the framework 1, and the whole mounting process can feel Click hand feeling. In the disassembling process, only the retaining force between the module 2 and the framework 1 needs to be overcome, so that the protruding part 32 slides out of the groove 1221, and the disassembling process is simple and convenient.

Referring to fig. 6, a second embodiment of the module 2 of the electronic device 100 of the present invention is different from the first embodiment in that a pair of opposite sidewalls 212 laterally protrudes with a holding block 213 and the other pair of opposite sidewalls 212 is provided with a hole 214. The elastic member 3 is a pair of simply supported beams, and includes a pair of elastic portions 31 positioned to be engaged with the holding blocks 213, and a protruding portion 32 integrally formed between the pair of elastic portions 31. The projection 32 protrudes outside the module 2 from the hole 214.

Please refer to fig. 7 and 8, which illustrate a third embodiment of the electronic device 100 according to the present invention; referring to fig. 9 and 10, a fourth embodiment of the electronic device 100 is shown. The third and fourth embodiments are different from the first and second embodiments in that the protruding portion 32 is provided separately from the elastic portion 31. The difference between the third embodiment and the fourth embodiment is that the protrusion 32 of the third embodiment is machined, while the protrusion 32 of the fourth embodiment is drawn by pressing.

In the process of mounting the module 2 of the electronic device 100 of the present invention on the frame 1, the protrusion 32 is displaced in the longitudinal direction with respect to the hole 214. When upgrading is needed, only the module 2 with the corresponding function needs to be replaced individually. When the module 2 is detached from the framework 1, only the holding force between the module 2 and the framework 1 needs to be overcome, and the method is simple and convenient.

The above description is only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments, and any equivalent variations of the technical solutions of the present invention, which are made by those skilled in the art through reading the present specification, are covered by the claims of the present invention.
