Referring to fig. 1 to 4, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides an electronic device 100, where the electronic device 100 may be, but is not limited to, an electronic device such as a mobile phone, a tablet computer, and a smart watch. The electronic device 100 of the present embodiment is described by taking a mobile phone as an example.

The screen assembly 14 is connected to the housing 12, the light sensor 30 is disposed in the housing 12, and the light guide 20 is disposed between the screen assembly 14 and the light sensor 30. The light guide 20 is used for guiding the ambient light to the light sensor 30, so that the light sensor 30 can detect the ambient light, thereby allowing the display brightness of the screen assembly 14 to be changed according to the intensity of the ambient light.

The housing 12 is used for mounting the screen assembly 14 and for accommodating electronic components of the electronic device 100, and the specific structural form of the housing 12 is not limited. In the embodiment shown in fig. 1 and 2, the housing 12 includes a front case 121 and a rear case 123. The screen assembly 14 is generally disposed on a side of the front housing 121, and the rear housing 123 is disposed on a side of the front housing 121 facing away from the screen assembly 14.

The bezel of the electronic device 100 may be an integral structure with the front surface, an integral structure with the rear housing, or a separate bezel, and the specific structure thereof is not limited herein. In the embodiment shown in the figures, the frame 1211 is assembled with the rear housing 123 and the screen assembly 14.

Further, referring to fig. 4 and fig. 5, the housing 12 is provided with an antenna slot 125, and the antenna slot 125 extends from the rear housing 123 to the frame 1211. That is, the frame 1211 is provided with an antenna slot 125, and in the present embodiment, the antenna slot 125 extends from the rear case 123 to the edge of the screen assembly 14 through the frame 1211. The specific location of the antenna groove 125 on the frame 1211 is not limited, and for example, the antenna groove 125 may be located at one or more of a top position, a left side position, a right side position, and a bottom position of the frame 1211. It should be understood that the meaning of "top", "left", "right", "bottom" as described above can be understood as follows: when the user is using electronic device 100 with screen assembly 14 facing the front of the user, the side near which the user's eyes are located is the "top," the side near which the user's left hand is located is the "left," the side near which the user's right hand is located is the "right," and the side near which the user's chin is located is the "bottom. In the embodiment shown in fig. 2 and 3, the antenna slot 125 on the frame 1211 is located at a top position of the frame 1211.

In this embodiment, the mounting unit 1213 is used for mounting a printed circuit board and other electronic components of the electronic apparatus 100, and the printed circuit board may be a main board of the electronic apparatus 100. The mounting member 1213 is fitted into the frame 1211, so that the frame 1211 is disposed around the mounting member 1213. When the mounting member 1213 is mounted in the frame 1211, the mounting member 1213 is located between the screen assembly 14 and the rear housing 123. In some embodiments, the material of the mounting 1213 can include, but is not limited to, a combination including any one or more of metal, plastic, resin, glass, rubber.

The cover plate 143 may be made of a transparent material, which serves as a transparent panel of the screen assembly 14 and can protect the display module 141 from being scratched. Further, the cover plate 143 may be a glass cover plate, a resin cover plate, a sapphire cover plate, or the like.

The display module 141 is disposed on a side of the cover plate 143 facing the mounting unit 1213, and the display module 141 and the cover plate 143 are connected together by an Optically Clear Adhesive (OCA) (not shown). In the embodiment, the display module 141 does not completely cover the entire surface of the cover plate 143, that is, when the display module 141 is attached to the cover plate 143, a predetermined distance is reserved between the edge of the cover plate 143 and the edge of the display module 141, and the predetermined distance is convenient for the cover plate 143 to be attached to the frame 1211. Because the cover 143 needs to be attached, after the light 1410 emitted by the display module 141 passes through the cover 143, the edge of the cover 143 forms a black edge because no light is emitted or the emitted light is very weak, and thus, the cover 143 can be divided into a display portion 1431 and a non-display portion 1433, where the display portion 1431 is located above the display module 1411, and the non-display portion 1433 is an area of the cover 143 except for the display portion 1431, and in short, the non-display portion 133 can be understood as a black edge area of the cover 143.

The lead-in portion 221 has a light incident surface 2211, and the light incident surface 22111 is disposed between the first sidewall 1215 and the second sidewall 1217. The light incident surface 2211 is used for introducing ambient light into the light guide 20.

In this embodiment, the light incident surface 2211 is a plane and is substantially parallel to the cover plate 143. Further, in the present embodiment, the light incident surface 2211 is not flush with the outer surface of the frame 1211, but is recessed with respect to the surface of the frame 1211. It should be understood that the outer surface of frame 1211 should be the surface of frame 1211 that faces away from the interior space of housing 12. Specifically, the surface of the frame 1211 is connected to the first sidewall 1215 to form a first top edge 1216, the surface of the frame 1211 is connected to the second sidewall 1217 to form a second top edge 1218, the first top edge 1216 and the second top edge 1218 jointly define a boundary of the antenna slot 125, and a predetermined distance is reserved between the light emitting surface 2211 and the first top edge 1216 and between the light emitting surface and the second top edge, so that the light incident surface 2211 is recessed relative to the outer surface of the frame 1211.

In other embodiments, the light incident surface 2211 may be flush with and smoothly connect with the outer surface of the frame 1211. Further, the outer surface of the frame 1211 is a curved surface, and the light incident surface 1211 is also a curved surface. At this time, the shape of the first light guiding body 221 is not limited to a tubular shape, and the shape may be set in conformity with the shape of the antenna groove 125 so that the first light guiding body 22 can be closely fitted to the inner wall of the antenna groove 125. Alternatively, the gap between the first light guide 22 and the inner wall of the antenna slot 125 may be filled with a non-shielding material, so that the signal transmission of the electronic device 100 is not affected while the first light guide 22 is fixed to the antenna slot 125.

The reflection portion 223 is connected to an end of the lead-in portion 221 away from the light incident surface 2211, and in the present embodiment, the reflection portion 223 is substantially in a shape of a bent pipe.
