Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present application more apparent, the technical solutions of the present application will be described in detail and completely with reference to the following specific embodiments of the present application and the accompanying drawings. It should be apparent that the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present application, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present application.
Referring to fig. 1 to 7, the present application discloses an electronic device, which may be a mobile phone, a tablet computer, an electronic book reader, a wearable device (e.g., a smart watch, smart glasses), and the like, and the embodiments of the present application do not limit the specific kind of the electronic device.
The electronic device may include a housing 300, a key assembly 200, a non-mute key 400, a timing key 500, and a drive mechanism 100. The housing 300 is a mounting base of the electronic device, such as a middle frame of a mobile phone, and is used for arranging other components of the electronic device.
Specifically, the housing 300 may have an inner cavity 310, the key assembly 200 may be slidably disposed in the inner cavity 310, and the key assembly 200 may be switched between the first position and the third position, so as to enable the electronic device to keep a non-mute state in the first position and to emit sound, such as an incoming call ring of a mobile phone, and to enable the electronic device to keep a mute state in the third position, so as to avoid interference of the sound emitted by the electronic device to certain specific occasions, such as setting the mobile phone to a mute state during an examination or a meeting.
Meanwhile, the non-silent button 400 and the timing button 500 are both required to be arranged in the inner cavity 310, and the non-silent button 400 or the timing button 500 is triggered by the button assembly 200, so that the electronic device can be in a silent or non-silent state. Drive mechanism 100 is also disposed within interior cavity 310 to provide the power necessary to reset key assembly 200.
The working process of the electronic equipment is as follows:
as shown in fig. 1 and 2, when key assembly 200 is in the first position, key assembly 200 is in contact with non-mute key 400 and is separated from timing key 500, in which case, non-mute signal is triggered by non-mute key 400, and after non-mute signal is obtained, electronic device can be in non-mute state and make sound normally.
As shown in fig. 5, when key assembly 200 is in the third position, key assembly 200 is separated from non-mute key 400 and is in contact with timing key 500, in which case the electronic device will acquire a mute signal, and after acquiring the mute signal, the electronic device can be in a mute state. Meanwhile, the electronic device can trigger a timing signal through the timing key 500, so that the electronic device can set preset mute time by acquiring the timing signal and matching the key assembly 200 with the timing key 500.
Meanwhile, under the condition that the mute time reaches the preset mute time, the driving mechanism 100 can drive the key assembly 200 to slide to the first position, i.e. the time-delay reset function of the key assembly 200 is realized.
The above operation not only can switch the electronic device from the non-mute state to the mute state through the key assembly 200, but also can reset the electronic device to the non-mute state after the preset mute time is reached. The operation mode and the internal structure design for realizing the delayed reset of the electronic equipment reduce the participation of manual links, further avoid the trouble that important matters are missed because the silence is forgotten to be cancelled, for example, the possibility that important calls are missed because a user forgets to switch the mobile phone into a non-silent state in the process of using the mobile phone is avoided, and the operation performance of the electronic equipment is improved.
Further, as shown in fig. 4, the key assembly 200 can also be slid to a second position. The third position, the second position, and the first position may be sequentially arranged along the sliding direction of the key assembly 200, and the key assembly 200 may be switched among the first position, the second position, and the third position.
When the key assembly 200 is in the second position, the key assembly 200 is separated from the non-mute key 400 and separated from the timing key 500, and the key assembly 200 can also trigger the mute signal to keep the electronic device in a mute state.
In this way, the second position and the third position both enable the electronic device to remain in a mute state, but differ in that: when the key assembly 200 is located at the second position, the timing key 500 is not touched, and the preset mute time is not set, so that the electronic device can be kept in the mute state until the electronic device is manually switched to the non-mute state, for example, a user slides the key assembly 200 from the second position to the first position to release the mute state; when the key assembly 200 is located at the third position, the key assembly 200 is reset to the first position after the mute time reaches the preset mute time, that is, the time delay reset of the electronic device to the mute state is realized.
It can be seen that through the cooperation of the two key functions at the second position and the third position, the key assembly 200 can be reset in a delayed manner, and the full manual operation steps of the key assembly 200 can be reserved, so that the operation mode of setting the mute state of the electronic device is enriched.
More specifically, the user can control the length of the preset mute time according to the requirement, and the specific mode is as follows:
with key assembly 200 in the third position, key assembly 200 is separated from non-mute key 400 and is in contact with timing key 500, as described above. At this time, the preset unit time can be set by pressing the timing key 500 through the key assembly 200, and the preset mute time is a superposition of at least one preset unit time, for example, the preset mute time of the timing key 500 is increased by 1 hour every time the timing key 500 is pressed.
In this design, the user can switch between the second position and the third position through the key assembly 200 to continuously activate the timing key 500, so as to continuously accumulate the preset mute time.
For example, the preset unit time may be 1 hour, and if the user triggers the timing button 500 3 times through the button assembly 200 by the above-mentioned position switching manner, the preset mute time is accumulated to be 3 hours. After such 3 hours, key assembly 200 will be reset to the first position by drive mechanism 100 to release the mute state. By the method, the user can adjust the length of the preset mute time, and the operability of the electronic equipment is further improved.
Further, as shown in fig. 1 and 3, the electronic device may further include a first driving member 600. When key assembly 200 is in the third position, first driving member 600 can drive key assembly 200 to slide from the third position to the second position by first driving member 600 disposed in inner cavity 310.
Specifically, first driving member 600 may be an elastic member such as a spring disposed in inner cavity 310, and first driving member 600 and key assembly 200 are disposed in sequence along the sliding direction. In the case that key assembly 200 is slid to the third position, first driving member 600 will be in a compressed state and have a compression set. The potential energy stored by the first driving member 600 in the compressed and deformed state can drive the key assembly 200 to slide from the third position to the second position.
It can be seen that, due to the arrangement of the first driving member 600, the user slides the key assembly 200 to the third position, and after the preset unit time is generated by triggering the timing key 500, the user can reset to the second position through the driving of the first driving member 600 without manual reset, so that the key assembly 200 can be switched between the third position and the second position conveniently, and then the preset unit time is generated for multiple times in a convenient implementation, so as to finally realize the setting of the preset mute time, and further improve the operability of the electronic device.
Certainly, the first driving member 600 is not limited to a spring, the first driving member 600 may also be a magnetic driving member disposed in the inner cavity 310, specifically, a magnetic induction coil may be disposed on the inner cavity 310, a magnet may be disposed on the first driving member 600, and the magnet and the magnetic induction coil are disposed oppositely, when the key assembly 200 slides to the third position, the timing button 500 may be contacted to trigger an electromagnetic signal simultaneously, so as to generate a magnetic force, such as a magnetic repulsion force or a magnetic attraction force, between the magnet and the magnetic induction coil, and further generate a magnetic driving force for the key assembly 200, so that the key assembly 200 slides to the second position.
Other arrangements of the first driving member 600, such as arranging the first driving member 600 as a magnetostrictive driving member, a piezoelectric driving member, etc., can achieve similar operation effects as described above, and will not be described in detail herein.
Further, as shown in fig. 1 and 6, the driving mechanism 100 may include a first push rod 140. The first push rod 140 is switchable between a driving position and an initial position. For example, the driving mechanism 100 may be configured as a piston mechanism, a rack and pinion mechanism, etc., and the first push rod 140 may be an output terminal of the driving mechanism 100, and the driving mechanism 100 will drive the key assembly 200 to slide through the first push rod 140, which specifically operates as follows:
when the mute time reaches the preset mute time, the electronic device will start the driving mechanism 100 to move the first push rod 140 from the initial position to the driving position, and at this time, the key assembly 200 can move to the first position along with the first push rod 140, so as to realize the time-delay reset of the key assembly 200 and to release the mute state.
After key assembly 200 moves to the first position, a reset signal may be triggered by touching non-mute key 400, and the electronic device resets control driving mechanism 100 after receiving the reset signal, so that first push rod 140 moves from the driving position to the initial position, thereby initializing driving mechanism 100 to prepare for next driving of key assembly 200.
More specifically, as shown in fig. 1 and fig. 2, the inner cavity 310 may have a first inner top wall 370, the first inner top wall 370 may have a first limiting groove 330 and a second limiting groove 340, and the first limiting groove 330 and the second limiting groove 340 may be sequentially arranged along the sliding direction of the key assembly 200.
Key assembly 200 may include a carrier 210 and a retaining sphere 220. The carrier 210 is slidably disposed in the inner cavity 310, the carrier 210 is spaced apart from the first inner top wall 370, and the limiting ball 220 is disposed on a side of the carrier 210 facing the first inner top wall 370.
When the key assembly 200 is located at the first position, the limiting sphere 220 can be in limiting fit with the first limiting groove 330, specifically, at least a portion of the limiting sphere 220 is accommodated in the first limiting groove 330, so that the movement of the key assembly 200 is stopped and restricted by the first limiting groove 330, and the key assembly 200 is fixed at the first position.
When the key assembly 200 is located at the second position, the limiting ball 220 is in limiting fit with the second limiting groove 340, specifically, at least a part of the limiting ball 220 is accommodated in the second limiting groove 340, so that the movement of the key assembly 200 is stopped and restricted by the second limiting groove 340, and the key assembly 200 is fixed at the second position.
It can be seen that the first limiting groove 330 and the second limiting groove 340 can be arranged to fix the key assembly 200, so as to prevent the key assembly 200 from sliding abnormally, and further prevent the electronic device from being in an abnormal state, such as abnormal release of a mute state, abnormal increase of a preset mute time, and mute of the electronic device when no mute is set.
More specifically, first spacing groove 330 and second spacing groove 340 can set up to arc wall or V type groove, and this kind of setting not only can realize button subassembly 200 better fixed in the current position, and the user is through exerting less external force moreover, alright remove current spacing complex state to drive button subassembly 200 continues to slide, and then improves the portability of controlling to button subassembly 200.
Further, the key assembly 200 may further include a first elastic member 230, and the limiting sphere 220 is elastically connected to the carrier 210 through the first elastic member 230. The elastic member 230 may be a spring bar, a spring, or the like.
Under the condition that the key assembly 200 slides, the limiting ball 220 can be released from the limiting fit with the first limiting groove 330 or the second limiting groove 340, and the first elastic element 230 can be compressed and deformed. When the key assembly 200 is in the first position, the first elastic element 230 can drive the limiting ball 220 to limit and engage with the first limiting groove 330. When the key assembly 200 is in the second position, the first elastic element 230 can drive the limiting ball 220 to be in limiting engagement with the second limiting groove 340.
It can be seen that the setting of elastic component 230 can make spacing spheroid 220 and first spacing groove 330 or second spacing groove 340 carry out comparatively inseparable laminating during spacing cooperation to guarantee spacing complex validity, and when needs relieved spacing cooperation, through elastic component 230's compression deformation, also can make button subassembly 200 comparatively smoothly separate in first spacing groove 330 or second spacing groove 340, thereby improve the maneuverability of this application device.
Further, the side of the carrier 210 facing the first inner top wall 370 is provided with a first mounting hole 216. The first elastic member 230 may be disposed in the first mounting hole 216. In a case where key assembly 200 needs to slide, limiting ball 220 can retract into first mounting hole 216 to avoid interference with movement of key assembly 200, and in a case where key assembly 200 is in the first position or the second position, first elastic member 230 can drive limiting ball 220 to extend out of first mounting hole 216 and drive limiting ball 220 to perform limiting fit with first limiting groove 330 or second limiting groove 340 to form a stop fixing for key assembly 200. Such an arrangement can form a constraint on the first elastic member 230, so as to prevent the first elastic member 230 from being deviated and other abnormalities, and more effectively implement the compression deformation of the first elastic member 230 and the driving of the limit ball 220.
More specifically, the first inner top wall 370 may further be provided with a first side wall 371 and a second side wall 372. The first position-limiting groove 330 is disposed on the first sidewall 371, and the second position-limiting groove 340 is disposed between the first sidewall 371 and the second sidewall 372. The second side wall 372 and the first side wall 371 form a step structure as a whole, and the height of the second side wall 372 is smaller than that of the first side wall 371, i.e. the distance from the second side wall 372 to the bottom surface of the inner cavity 310 is larger than that from the first side wall 371 to the bottom surface of the inner cavity 310. With key assembly 200 in the third position, retaining sphere 220 can be in contact with second sidewall 372.
This kind of setting is in order to improve the operation portability of setting the preset mute time, specifically, setting the preset mute time requires sliding the key assembly 200 from the second position to the third position, and in the sliding process of the key assembly 200 to the third position, because the first driving member 600 has already produced a certain stopping effect on the key assembly 200, the limiting effect of the second limiting groove 340 on the key assembly 200 in the moving process in this direction should be weakened, that is, the limiting effect of the second limiting groove 340 towards one side of the third position should be weaker than the limiting effect of the second limiting groove 340 towards one side of the first position, so the height of the second side wall 372 is less than the height of the first side wall 371.
Further, as shown in fig. 1, 2 and 7, the carrier 210 may include a substrate 211, the substrate 211 includes a first guide portion, a mounting region and a second guide portion, which are sequentially disposed, and the limiting ball 220 is disposed in the mounting region.
The housing 300 is provided with a first guide passage 320 and a stopper 380. The first guide passage 320 is communicated with the inner cavity 310, the stopper 380 is arranged on the first inner top wall 370, a second guide passage is formed between the stopper 380 and the bottom surface of the inner cavity 310, and the second guide passage is opposite to the first guide passage 320.
The mounting area is located between the second guide channel and the first guide channel 320, the first guide part is slidably disposed in the first guide channel 320 and is in guiding fit with the first guide channel 320, and the second guide part is slidably disposed in the second guide channel and is in guiding fit with the second guide channel.
The first guide channel 320 and the second guide channel are matched with each other, so that path constraint on the key assembly 200 can be formed, the key assembly 200 is prevented from moving up and down, and the controllability of the key assembly 200 is enhanced.
Further, as shown in fig. 1, 2 and 7, carrier 210 may also include a third push rod 215 for the way key assembly 200 contacts timing key 500. The timing button 500 is disposed on one side of the stopper 380 facing the third push rod 215, and the timing button 500 and the third push rod 215 are sequentially disposed along the sliding direction of the button assembly 200. With key assembly 200 in the third position, carrier 210 is in contact with timing key 500 via third push rod 215.
This arrangement allows third push rod 215 and stop 380 to cooperate to form a stop for key assembly 200, preventing excessive movement of key assembly 200.
Still further, carrier 210 may also include first protrusion 212 for the way key assembly 200 contacts non-mute key 400. The first protrusion 212 is disposed on a side of the base plate 211 facing the first inner top wall 370, and the limiting ball 220 is disposed between the third push rod 215 and the first protrusion 212. The non-silent button 400 is disposed on the first inner top wall 370, and the carrier 210 contacts the non-silent button 400 through the first protrusion 212 when the button assembly 200 is in the first position. This arrangement can prevent the non-silent button 400 from being pressed excessively by the button assembly 200, thereby preventing the non-silent button 400 from being damaged.
More specifically, as shown in fig. 1 and 7, the carrier 210 may further include a key cap 213. The key cap 213 is arranged on a side of the substrate 211 facing away from the first inner top wall 370. The shell 300 is provided with a through hole which is communicated with the inner cavity 310, and the keycap 213 is slidably arranged in the through hole. Thus, the key cap 213 partially protrudes out of the housing 300, so that the hand of the user can directly contact with the key assembly 200, which facilitates the shifting of the key assembly 200, and further improves the operation portability.
Of course, the key assembly 200 can also be disposed in the inner cavity 310, and the driving of the key assembly 200 is completed by a mechanical device inside the electronic device, which can make the appearance of the electronic device better, and will not be described in detail herein.
Further, as shown in fig. 6 for the specific structure of the driving mechanism 100, the driving mechanism 100 may further include a motor 110, a frame 120, a screw 130, and a guide post 150.
