As shown in fig. 1 to 18, an embodiment of the present invention discloses an expansion device 200, where the expansion device 200 can be applied to an electronic apparatus 100, and specifically, the expansion device may include a main body portion 210 and an expansion portion 230, where the main body portion 210 provides an installation space for components of the expansion device 200, one end of the main body portion 210 is provided with a first electrical connection end 220, and the expansion portion 230 is disposed on the main body portion 210 and electrically connected to the first electrical connection end 220. Specifically, the extension portion 230 may be at least one of a camera module, a sensor, a fingerprint recognition module, a microphone, a receiver, a card holder, a card socket, a fill-in light, and a data interface.
The electronic device 100 has a first interface 110, and the first interface 110 may be used for charging the electronic device 100 and also for data transmission, and of course, both charging and data transmission may be implemented. As shown in fig. 1, when the expansion device 200 is connected to the electronic apparatus 100 through the first interface 110, the first electrical connection terminal 220 is electrically connected to the first interface 110. At this time, the extension device 200 is electrically conducted with the electronic apparatus 100, thereby enabling the extension device 200 to be applied to the electronic apparatus 100. Optionally, the first interface 110 may be a USB interface, and the first electrical connection terminal 220 may also be a USB interface matched with the first electrical connection terminal. The USB interface has a hot plug function, and thus can improve the security of the expansion device 200. Meanwhile, the USB interface is often used in the conventional electronic device 100, so that the versatility of the expansion apparatus 200 can be improved.
In the embodiment of the present invention, when the first electrical connection terminal 220 is electrically connected to the first interface 110 of the electronic device 100, the extension portion 230 of the extension apparatus 200 can be in an operating state, so that when a user uses the electronic device 100, the extension apparatus 200 can be connected to the electronic device 100 according to a scene change, thereby improving the performance of the electronic device 100.
Meanwhile, the expansion device 200 may add a new function to the electronic device 100 or implement function upgrade, so as to optimize the function of the electronic device 100.
Specifically, the expansion device 200 includes a control chip 240, and when the expansion device 200 is connected to the electronic device 100 through the first interface 110, and the expansion device 200 transmits data to the electronic device 100, the expansion portion 230 transmits the received data to the control chip 240 first, and transmits the data to the first interface 110 through the first electrical connection terminal 220 after being processed by the control chip 240, and then transmits the data to the motherboard of the electronic device 100 through the first interface 110; when the electronic device 100 transmits data to the expansion apparatus 200, the main board of the electronic device 100 transmits the data to the first interface 110, and then transmits the data to the control chip 240 through the first electrical connection terminal 220, and the control chip 240 processes the received data and then transmits the processed data to the expansion portion 230.
In an alternative embodiment, the electronic device 100 further includes a second interface, and in a case where the extension device 200 is connected to the electronic device 100 through the first interface 110, the extension portion 230 faces the first direction; when the expansion device 200 is connected to the electronic apparatus 100 through the second interface, the first electrical connection terminal 220 is electrically connected to the second interface, and the expansion portion 230 faces the second direction; the second direction is opposite to the first direction. In other words, the expanding portion 230 of the expanding device 200 can face the user or face away from the user, so that the expanding device 200 can be used in multiple directions, and the use performance of the expanding device 200 is improved. Meanwhile, the multi-directional operation of the electronic device 100 can be realized only by using one expansion device 200, so that the structure of the electronic device 100 is simpler and the cost is lower. For example, when the extension portion 230 is a camera module, the camera of the camera module may face the user, so as to achieve front-facing shooting, and the camera of the camera module may also face away from the user, so as to achieve rear-facing shooting.
Alternatively, the second interface may be used for charging the electronic device 100 and also for data transmission, and of course, both charging and data transmission may be implemented. The electronic device 100 can use the first interface 110 and the second interface to perform data transmission or charging on the electronic device 100, or one of the first interface 110 and the second interface is used for charging and the other is used for data transmission. The second interface may be a USB interface.
In order to further improve the usability of the expansion device 200. In an alternative embodiment, the number of the expansion portions 230 may be multiple, and the multiple expansion portions 230 are distributed at intervals, as shown in fig. 2 and 3. At this time, the expansion device 200 is provided with the plurality of expansion parts 230, thereby improving the integration degree of the expansion device 200 and further improving the usability of the expansion device 200. Alternatively, the plurality of expansion portions 230 may be the same type of functional device or different types of functional devices. For example, the plurality of expansion parts 230 may be data interfaces, which may be of the same type, so as to enable simultaneous connection with a plurality of peripheral devices; the data interface may also be of a different type, thereby improving compatibility of the expansion device 200. In addition, the plurality of expansion parts 230 may also be camera modules, thereby improving the photographing effect. At least one of the plurality of extension parts 230 is a light supplement lamp, so that automatic light supplement during shooting is realized, and the shooting effect is further improved. The specific type of expansion device 200 is provided herein as an alternative embodiment and is not intended to limit the specific structure of the present invention.
As shown in fig. 13, the electronic device 100 has a first receiving slot 120, the first interface 110 is disposed in the first receiving slot 120, and when the expansion apparatus 200 is connected to the electronic device 100 through the first interface 110, at least a portion of the main body 210 is located in the first receiving slot 120. At this time, the first interface 110 is hidden in the first receiving groove 120, so that the number of openings on the external surface of the housing of the electronic device 100 is reduced, and the integrity of the housing is improved. Meanwhile, at least a portion of the expansion device 200 is located in the first receiving groove 120, so that the occupation of the expansion device 200 on the thickness space of the electronic device 100 can be reduced, and the whole electronic device 100 can be thinner. In addition, at least a portion of the main body portion 210 is located in the first receiving groove 120, so that the expansion device 200 is connected and fastened with the electronic apparatus 100, thereby preventing the expansion device 200 from falling off the electronic apparatus 100 during use. Further, as shown in fig. 12 and 14, after the expansion device 200 is mounted on the electronic device 100, the whole expansion device 200 may not protrude with respect to the housing surface of the electronic device 100, thereby further improving the user experience. Alternatively, the housing may include a front cover and a rear cover, and the first receiving groove 120 may be opened on the front cover or the rear cover.
In an alternative embodiment, the number of the expansion devices 200 may be at least two, which may include a first expansion device 201 and a second expansion device 202, and in the case that the second expansion device 202 is connected to the electronic device 100 through the first interface 110, the first expansion device 201 is connected to the second expansion device 202, as shown in fig. 8 to 11. At this time, by overlapping the expansion devices 200, the functions of the expansion devices 200 are upgraded and optimized, and the use performance of the expansion devices 200 is further improved. Optionally, the data of the first expansion device 201 is first transmitted to the second expansion device 202, and then transmitted to the electronic device 100 by the second expansion device 202; similarly, the data on the electronic device 100 is first transmitted to the second expansion device 202, and then transmitted to the first expansion device 201 by the second expansion device 202.
As shown in fig. 15 and 16, the second expansion device 202 is provided with a third interface 250, and when the second expansion device 202 is connected to the electronic apparatus 100 through the first interface 110, the first expansion device 201 is connected to the second expansion device 202 through the third interface 250. At this time, the third interface 250 may implement connection between the second expansion device 202 and the first expansion device 201, and meanwhile, in a case where the second expansion device 202 is connected to the electronic apparatus 100 through the first interface 110, the third interface 250 may also be used for charging or data transmission of the electronic apparatus 100. In addition, the interface types of the third interface 250 and the first interface 110 may be different, so that the electronic device 100 may be adapted to a variety of data interfaces, thereby improving the versatility of the electronic device 100. Optionally, one of the first interface 110 and the third interface 250 is a Type-C USB interface, and the other is a Micro USB interface.
In another embodiment, in the case that the second expansion device 202 is connected to the electronic apparatus 100 through the first interface 110, the first expansion device 201 may rotate relative to the electronic apparatus 100, or the second expansion device 202 may rotate relative to the electronic apparatus 100, or both the first expansion device 201 and the second expansion device 202 may rotate relative to the electronic apparatus 100, as shown in fig. 8 to 10. At this time, the working direction of the first expansion device 201 or the second expansion device 202 is not limited, so that the first expansion device 201 or the second expansion device 202 can perform an omnidirectional operation, and further, the mode of the first expansion device 201 or the second expansion device 202 is more diversified, and the user experience is better. Optionally, when the first expansion device 201 or the second expansion device 202 is a camera module, the same expansion device 200 may implement operations such as front-end shooting, rear-end shooting, and panoramic shooting.
The rotation of the expansion device 200 relative to the electronic apparatus 100 can be performed manually by the user, but the manual operation mode has the problem of low precision on one hand, and on the other hand, when the distance between the user and the expansion device 200 is long, if the user is required to manually adjust the position of the expansion device 200, the user needs to approach the expansion device 200 to perform the rotation operation, which results in the inconvenience of the operation. For this, the expansion device 200 is connected to a first driving mechanism, and the first driving mechanism can drive the expansion device 200 to rotate relative to the electronic apparatus 100 when the expansion device 200 is connected to the electronic apparatus 100 through the first interface 110. The first driving mechanism can accurately drive the expansion device 200 to rotate, and meanwhile, a user can trigger the first driving mechanism to act in a remote control mode, so that the expansion device 200 is driven to rotate, and therefore the rotating operation of the expansion device 200 is more convenient to implement. Alternatively, the first driving device may be disposed on the expansion device 200, or may be disposed on the electronic apparatus 100.
Specifically, in the case that the extension apparatus 200 is connected to the electronic device 100 through the first interface 110, the extension apparatus 200 is pivoted to the electronic device 100 through a pivot axis. At this time, the rotation form of the expanding device 200 is simple and convenient to operate. Alternatively, the first driving mechanism may be a driving motor, and the pivot shaft may be connected to an output shaft of the driving motor, and the output shaft drives the pivot shaft to rotate, so as to drive the expansion device 200 to rotate. The first driving mechanism can also be in other power output structures.
In another embodiment, the pivot shaft is provided with the first electrical connection portion, in this scheme, the pivot shaft can drive the expansion device 200 to rotate and can be electrically connected with the electronic device 100, so that the structure of the expansion device 200 is simplified, and the structure of the expansion device 200 is simpler and more compact. Optionally, in a case that the expansion device 200 is connected to the electronic apparatus 100 through the first interface 110, the first electrical connection terminal 220 rotates relative to the first interface 110, so as to drive the whole expansion device 200 to rotate.
The embodiment of the present invention further discloses an electronic device 100, wherein the electronic device 100 can be connected to the expansion apparatus 200 according to any of the above embodiments, and specifically, the electronic device 100 includes a housing, the housing has a first interface 110, and when the expansion apparatus 200 is connected to the electronic device 100, the first interface 110 is electrically connected to the first electrical connection terminal 220. In this embodiment, the extension apparatus 200 may be connected to the electronic device 100 according to a scene change, thereby improving the performance of the electronic device 100. Alternatively, the housing may be composed of a front shell, a rear cover, and a middle frame disposed therebetween, and the first interface 110 may be opened on the front shell, the rear cover, or the middle frame. The housing may also be composed of a front cover and a rear cover, and the first port 110 may be opened on the front cover or the rear cover.
In an alternative embodiment, the housing has a first surface facing away from the display screen of the electronic device 100, the first surface has a second receiving groove, the second receiving groove has a fourth interface, when the expansion device 200 is connected to the electronic device 100 through the fourth interface, at least a portion of the expansion device 200 is located in the second receiving groove, and the expansion portion 230 faces a third direction; when the extension device 200 is connected to the electronic apparatus 100 through the first interface 110, the extension part 230 is directed to the first direction; the third direction is opposite to the first direction. For example, a plurality of expansion devices with different functions and structures may be provided, and a user may replace different expansion devices 200 according to different requirements, so as to meet the functional requirements in more scenes.
At least a part of the expansion device 200 is located in the second receiving groove, so that the occupation of the expansion device 200 on the thickness space of the electronic device 100 can be reduced, and the electronic device 100 can be thinner. Further, after the extension device 200 is mounted on the housing, the whole extension device 200 may not protrude from the first surface, so that the appearance and the texture of the electronic device 100 are better, and the user experience is further improved.
In addition, a fourth interface is formed in the second receiving groove, and when at least a portion of the expansion device 200 is located in the second receiving groove, the first electrical connection end 220 and the housing are not only physically connected, but also electrically connected, so that the connection structure of the expansion device 200 and the housing can be simplified by such an arrangement. Meanwhile, the extension part 230 can work in both forward and reverse directions, thereby further improving the usability of the electronic device 100.
The extension device 200 can be inserted and removed manually by a user, but in the manual operation, the user needs to apply a large force on the extension device 200 to pull the extension device 200 from the electronic device 100, and when the force applied by the user is too large, the extension device 200 is easily damaged; when the force applied by the user is small, the extension device 200 may not be easily pulled out; thereby making disassembly of the expansion device 200 difficult. For this, in an alternative embodiment, as shown in fig. 17, the electronic device 100 disclosed in the present invention may further include a second driving mechanism and a pushing unit 300, the pushing unit 300 is connected to the second driving mechanism, the expansion device 200 is provided with a connecting unit, the pushing unit 300 is connected to the connecting unit, and in the case that the expansion device 200 is connected to the electronic device 100 through the first interface 110, the second driving mechanism drives the expansion device 200 to move through the pushing unit 300 and the connecting unit. At this time, the second driving mechanism drives the push-out part 300 without manual operation of the user to push the push-out part 300 out of the housing to push the expansion device 200, thereby making the disassembly of the expansion device 200 simple and convenient. Alternatively, the second driving mechanism may be a driving component such as a linear motor, an air cylinder, etc., and an output shaft of the linear motor drives the pushing part 300 to move, so as to push the expansion device 200.
In the above embodiment, the housing of the electronic device 100 needs to additionally reserve the installation space of the pushing part 300, so that the pushing part 300 occupies the inner space of the housing seriously. In another embodiment, the pushing unit 300 is provided with the first interface 110, the second driving mechanism is connected to the pushing unit 300, and when the expansion device 200 is connected to the electronic apparatus 100 through the first interface 110, the second driving mechanism drives the expansion device 200 to move through the pushing unit 300. That is, the push-out portion 300 and the first mouthpiece 110 may be integrally provided, so that an installation space for the push-out portion 300 does not need to be additionally reserved in the housing, and thus the space occupied by the push-out portion 300 and the first mouthpiece 110 as a whole is small.
