Wherein at least one colloid structure is connected with the second sidewall 3112 of the first body 311 of the waterproof structure. The elastic waterproof portion 2 has a certain compressibility, and when the rear housing is fastened to the middle frame body 1, the second sidewall 3112 of the first body 311 is attached to the colloid structure on the rear housing, and then the slotted structure 112 at the mounting structure 11 is completely sealed. After liquid enters a gap between the side key and the middle frame body, the liquid can only stay in the accommodating space 111 and cannot enter the electronic equipment, so that the waterproof requirement of IPX3 of the electronic equipment is met, the service life of the electronic equipment is prolonged, the use requirement of a user is met, and economic loss of the user is avoided. The first sidewall 3111 of the first body 311 is opposite to the second sidewall 3112 of the first body 311.
In addition, the rear shell is in abutting connection with the side key waterproof part 4, so that the installation effect of the side key waterproof part 4 and the accommodating space 111 is ensured, and the side key waterproof part 4 is prevented from being separated from the accommodating space 111 to influence the waterproof performance of the installation structure 11.
The waterproof construction in this disclosure has realized that the side key position is effective and stable waterproof, improves the sealing performance of side key for the waterproof requirement that satisfies IPX3 of complete machine, for electronic equipment provides reliable waterproof guarantee, has promoted the use for the user and has experienced. When a user is exposed to rain or washes hands, the user does not need to worry about the situation that liquid enters the electronic equipment to influence the normal use of the electronic equipment.
Other embodiments of the invention will be apparent to those skilled in the art from consideration of the specification and practice of the invention disclosed herein. This application is intended to cover any variations, uses, or adaptations of the invention following, in general, the principles of the invention and including such departures from the present disclosure as come within known or customary practice within the art to which the invention pertains. It is intended that the specification and examples be considered as exemplary only, with a true scope and spirit of the invention being indicated by the following claims.
It will be understood that the invention is not limited to the precise arrangements described above and shown in the drawings and that various modifications and changes may be made without departing from the scope thereof. The scope of the invention is limited only by the appended claims.
