It is understood that the functional component 100 can be applied to the mobile terminal 200, and the mobile terminal 200 can be a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a notebook computer, etc. The functional device extends out of the base 10, ensuring that the functional device interacts with the user. The functional device is contracted to the base 10, so that the use volume of the mobile terminal 200 is reduced, a user can conveniently carry the mobile terminal 200, and the user experience is improved.

The sliding seat 42 is telescopically and slidably connected with the base 10, and the camera module 20 is fixed on the sliding seat 42, so that the sliding seat 42 can drive the camera module 20 to be stacked or unfolded relative to the base 10; then, the base 10 is provided with a boosting part 414, the sliding seat 42 is provided with a force-receiving part 424, and the elastic element 32 is elastically connected to the force-receiving part 424 and the boosting part 414; when the pushing assembly is fixed to the base 10 or the sliding seat 42, the pushing assembly drives the sliding seat 42 to drive the force-receiving portion 424 to move away from the boosting portion 414 in a direction of extending out of the base 10, and the elastic member 32 provides an elastic pushing force for further extending out of the sliding seat 42 relative to the base 10, so as to push the sliding seat 42 to drive the camera module 20 to expand relative to the base 10.

In other embodiments, the pushing assembly is fixed to the base 10, and the pushing assembly provides pushing force to the sliding seat 42 to drive the sliding seat 42 to extend out of the base 10.

Referring to fig. 1 and 4, in the present embodiment, the base 10 includes a back plate 11 and a side plate 12 fixed to the back plate 11. A containing cavity 13 is formed between the back plate 11 and the side plate 12. The sliding direction of the sliding seat 42 is perpendicular to the side plate 12. The receiving cavity 13 has a receiving opening 131 opposite to the back plate 11. The driving mechanism 30 is installed in the accommodating cavity 13 to protect the driving mechanism 30. The driving mechanism 30 is mounted in the housing cavity 13 through the housing opening 131. When the sliding seat 42 is retracted from the base 10, the sliding seat 42 is at least partially received in the receiving cavity 13 through the side plate 12. Therefore, the camera module 20 is hidden, and the overall use volume of the functional assembly 100 is reduced. When the sliding seat 42 extends out of the base 10, the camera module 20 at least partially exposes out of the accommodating cavity 13 through the side plate 12. The back plate 11 of the base 10 carries the sliding seat 42 and the driving mechanism 30, so as to ensure that the driving mechanism 30 can drive the sliding seat 42 to extend and retract relative to the base 10. The side plate 12 is hidden from the sliding seat 42 and the driving mechanism 30, so as to improve the appearance and safety of the functional assembly 100.

In this embodiment, the sliding seat 42 is further provided with other functional devices, and the functional devices may be any one or combination of functional devices such as a camera module, an iris recognition module, a face recognition module, a flash lamp, a microphone, a receiver, a photoreceptor, a fingerprint module, and a key. Because the sliding seat 42 can be slidably extended and retracted to the base 10, when the functional device is needed, the driving mechanism 30 drives the sliding seat 42 to drive the functional device to extend out of the accommodating cavity 13, thereby conveniently providing functions of photographing, fingerprint identification, flash lamp and the like; after the use, the functional device is contracted in the accommodating cavity 13, so that the functional device is hidden in the base 10, the appearance integrity of the mobile terminal 200 is improved, the functional device does not occupy a non-display area of the display screen 60 of the mobile terminal 200, and the screen occupation ratio of the display screen 60 is improved.

Referring to fig. 1 to 5, in the present embodiment, the elastic element 32 is a torsion spring, the elastic element 32 includes a first connection end 321 and a second connection end 322 disposed opposite to the first connection end 321, and an elastic arm 323 fixedly connected between the first connection end 321 and the second connection end 322, the first connecting end 321 is rotatably connected to the boosting portion 414 of the base 10, the second connecting end 322 is rotatably connected to the force-receiving portion 424 of the sliding seat 42, the first connection end 321 and the second connection end 322 are arranged to be staggered in the sliding direction of the functional device, so that the second connection end 322 slides with the sliding seat 42, so that the position of the second connection end 322 in the sliding direction of the sliding seat 42 changes, while the position of the first connection end 321 does not change, and the elastic member 32 may provide an elastic restoring force of the functional device away from or close to the receiving cavity 13. Specifically, the elastic member 32 is in an arc shape protruding toward the side plate 12, and the elastic arm 323 has a first curvature radius in a natural state. When the pushing assembly overcomes the elastic force of the elastic arm 323, drives the sliding seat 42 to drive the force-bearing portion 424 to move away from the pushing-assisting portion 414 in the direction of extending out of the base 10, the second connecting end 322 is close to the side plate 12 relative to the first connecting end 321, and the elastic arm 323 has a second radius of curvature, which is smaller than the first radius of curvature, so that the elastic arm 323 provides the sliding seat 42 with an elastic pushing force toward the outer side of the side plate 12 in a compressed state, so that the sliding seat 42 slides in the direction of moving away from the accommodating cavity 13, and the sliding stroke of the sliding seat 42 is increased. On the other hand, since the elastic member 32 is elastically connected to the force receiving portion 424 and the boosting portion 414, when the functional device is impacted by falling, the elastic member 32 can provide a falling buffer protection for the functional device, so as to prevent the functional device from falling and being damaged. In other embodiments, the resilient arm 323 may also be curved to project away from the side plate 12.

Referring to fig. 1 and 4, in the present embodiment, when the sliding seat 42 is retracted into the accommodating cavity 13, the elastic arm 323 has a third radius of curvature, which is smaller than the first radius of curvature, so that the elastic element 32 is in a compressed state. In one embodiment, when the functional device is retracted into the receiving cavity 13, if the first connecting end 321 and the second connecting end 322 are respectively equidistant from the side plate 12 in the sliding direction of the functional device, the elastic arm 323 provides an elastic restoring force perpendicular to the sliding direction of the functional device, and the elastic restoring force provided by the elastic arm 323 acts on the base 10 to prevent the functional device from moving away from the base 10, so that the functional device and the base 10 are kept locked relative to each other.

Referring to fig. 4, 6 and 7, in another embodiment, when the sliding seat 42 is retracted into the receiving cavity 13, if the second connecting end 322 is away from the side plate 12 relative to the first connecting end 321, the assisting portion 414 is close to the side plate 12 relative to the force-receiving portion 424, and the elastic arm 323 provides an elastic restoring force toward the inner side of the side plate 12, it can be understood that the elastic restoring force provided by the elastic arm 323 acts on the base 10 to prevent the functional device from moving away from the base 10, and the sliding seat 42 and the base 10 can also be kept locked relative to each other. After the sliding seat 42 extends out of the base 10, in the process that the sliding seat 42 moves towards the inner side of the side plate 12, the second connecting end 322 gradually approaches towards the side plate 12, and when the sliding seat 42 drives the force-receiving portion 414 to retract towards the base 10 and starts to move away from the boosting portion 424, the elastic arm 323 provides an elastic pushing force towards the inner side of the side plate 12 for the functional device, so that no external drive is needed, and the elastic arm 323 can provide an elastic restoring force for the functional device to automatically retract into the accommodating cavity 13.

Further, referring to fig. 1 and 8 to 13, the pushing seat 31 is provided with an air cavity 311 and a first sliding hole 312 communicated with the air cavity 311, the first sliding hole 312 extends parallel to the sliding direction of the sliding seat 42, the first sliding hole 312 faces the base 10, the pushing assembly further includes a pushing member 33 slidably connected with the first sliding hole 312 and a heating member 34 fixed in the air cavity 311, the heating member 34 heats the air in the air cavity 311, so that the air expands to drive the pushing member 33 to partially slide out of the first sliding hole 312, and the pushing member 33 provides a pushing force to the base 10 and a reverse pushing force to the sliding seat 42.

In this embodiment, the pushing seat 31 has a rectangular block shape, and the first sliding hole 312 has a rounded rectangular shape. The cross section of the pushing member 33 is the same as that of the first sliding hole 312, the pushing member 33 has a first sliding end 331, a first ejecting end 332 close to the base relative to the first connecting end 321, and a first outer sidewall 333 extending from the first sliding end 331 to the first ejecting end 332, the first sliding end 331 is inserted into the first sliding hole 312, the first outer sidewall 333 is in sliding fit with the inner wall of the first sliding hole 312, and the first ejecting end 332 extends out of the first sliding hole 312. The heating element 34 heats the gas in the gas cavity 311, so that the gas expands to apply a pushing force to the end surface of the first sliding end 331, thereby driving the first ejecting end 332 to provide a pushing force to the functional device. The pushing member 33 is in sealing fit with the first slide hole 312, and sealing oil or sealing grease may be added between the first outer side wall 333 and the inner wall of the first slide hole 312, so that the pushing member 33 is in sealing fit with the first slide hole 312 while the sliding friction force between the pushing member 33 and the first slide hole 312 is reduced, thereby preventing the gas in the gas chamber 311 from leaking from between the pushing member 33 and the first slide hole 312, and ensuring that the heating member 34 generates sufficient pushing force on the pushing member 33 when the gas in the gas chamber 311 is thermally expanded. After the pushing member 33 pushes the sliding seat 42 to unfold for a certain distance relative to the base 10, the elastic member 32 drives the sliding seat 42 to continue to slide, so as to increase the unfolding distance of the sliding seat 42 relative to the base 10. Thereby reducing the requirement for the sliding stroke of the pusher 33, thereby compressing the volume of the pusher assembly and reducing the heating time. In other embodiments, an elastic sealing ring may be provided that is sealingly engaged between the pusher 33 and the first slide hole 312.

The heating element 34 is electrically connected with an external power supply, and the heating element 34 receives an electric signal to heat the air cavity 311, so that the air in the air cavity 311 expands, and the magnitude of the pushing force provided by the pushing element 33 to the external device is further influenced.
