The electronic device 100 in this embodiment is described by taking a tablet phone as an example. It will be appreciated that in other embodiments, the electronic device 100 may also be a foldable cellular phone. Referring to fig. 1-2, in this example, an electronic device 100 includes a screen 10, a center 20, a circuit board 30 (not shown in fig. 1), a battery 40 (not shown in fig. 1), and a back cover 50 (which may also be referred to as a battery cover).
It is to be understood that fig. 1 and 2 and the related figures below only schematically illustrate some of the components comprised by the electronic device 100, the actual shape, actual size, actual position and actual configuration of which are not limited by fig. 1 and 2 and the figures below. In addition, when the electronic device 100 is some other form of device, the electronic device 100 may not include the screen 10.
In the embodiment shown in fig. 1, the electronic device 100 has a rectangular flat plate shape. For convenience of description of the embodiments below, an XYZ coordinate system is established. Specifically, the width direction of the electronic device 100 is defined as the X-axis direction, the length direction of the electronic device 100 is defined as the Y-axis direction, and the thickness direction of the electronic device 100 is defined as the Z-axis direction. It is to be understood that the coordinate system of the electronic device 100 may be flexibly set according to actual needs, which is not specifically limited herein. In other embodiments, the shape of the electronic device 100 may also be square planar, circular planar, oval planar, etc.
The screen 10 is used to display images, videos, and the like. Referring to fig. 2, a screen 10 includes a light-transmitting cover plate 11 and a display screen 12. The light-transmitting cover plate 11 is laminated with the display screen 12. The light-transmitting cover plate 11 is mainly used for protecting and preventing dust of the display screen 12. The display 12 may be a flexible display or a rigid display. For example, the display 12 may be an organic light emitting diode (organ ic l ight-EMITT ING D iode, OLED) display, a liquid crystal display (l iqu ID CRYSTA L D I SP L AY, LCD), or the like.
The middle frame 20 serves as a supporting skeleton of the electronic apparatus 100 for mounting electronic devices such as the screen 10, the circuit board 30, the battery 40, and the like. Referring to fig. 2 in combination with fig. 3, fig. 3 is a cross-sectional view of the electronic device 100 shown in fig. 1 at line A-A. The middle frame 20 includes a rim 21 and a middle plate 22. The frame 21 is annular, and the middle plate 22 is fixed to the inner surface of the frame 21. The rim 21 may surround the outer edge of the middle plate 22. The screen 10 may be fixed to the bezel 21 or the middle plate 22 by means of the light-transmitting cover plate 11.
In some embodiments, midplane 22 is a metal piece. Specifically, the middle plate 22 may be made of a metal material with greater structural strength and hardness, so that the middle plate 22 has greater structural strength, and thus the middle plate 22 can play a role in stable support. On the basis of this, the antenna radiator 223 of the electronic device 100 may be formed on the middle plate 22.
Referring to fig. 4, fig. 4 is a schematic partial structure of the middle plate 22 of the electronic device 100 shown in fig. 2. The outer edge of the middle plate 22 is provided with a plurality of slits 222, which slits 222 divide the outer edge of the middle plate 22 into at least one antenna radiator 223. The break 222 is filled with an insulating material (not shown). Wherein, the term "plurality" as used herein refers to two or more. In this way, the radiation frequency band of the antenna can be increased on the basis of reducing the occupied space of the antenna radiator 223, so that the radiation performance of the antenna can be improved, the communication signal quality of the electronic device 100 can be improved, and the 5G communication function of the electronic device 100 can be realized.
In some embodiments, bezel 21 may be formed on the outer edge of midplane 22 by an injection molding process. Specifically, the frame 21 is a plastic member. In this way, the connection strength between the frame 21 and the middle plate 22 can be improved, and the part of the frame 21 can be filled in the break joint 222, and the frame 21 is used to form the insulating material, so that the processing technology of the middle frame 20 can be simplified, the processing efficiency can be improved, and the processing cost can be reduced.
Of course, it is understood that in other embodiments, the antenna radiator 223 may not be disposed on the midplane 22. For example, the antenna radiator 223 may also be integrated on the circuit board 30.
With continued reference to fig. 2, the circuit board 30 includes a main circuit board 31 and a sub circuit board 32. The main circuit board 31 and the sub circuit board 32 are fixedly connected to a side surface of the middle plate 22 facing away from the screen 10, and the main circuit board 31 and the sub circuit board 32 are disposed at a distance. Illustratively, the primary circuit board 31 and the secondary circuit board 32 are disposed spaced apart in the Y-axis direction.
The main circuit board 31 is used for integrating control chips, which may be, for example, an application processor (app l icat ion processor, AP), a double data rate synchronous dynamic random access memory (doub LE DATA RATE, DDR), a universal memory (UFS), and the like.
The secondary circuit board 32 is used to integrate electronics such as an antenna (e.g., a 5G antenna) rf front end, a universal serial bus (un IVERSA L SER IA lbus, USB) device, a vibrator, etc. The frame 21 may be provided with a socket corresponding to the USB device, and accessories such as a charger, an earphone, a data line, etc. may be electrically connected to the USB device through the socket, so as to realize transmission of power, signals and data. The secondary circuit board 32 is electrically connected with the primary circuit board 31 to realize data and signal transmission between the primary circuit board 31 and the secondary circuit board 32. It will be appreciated that in other embodiments, the circuit board 30 may include only the main circuit board 31, and not the sub-circuit board 32.
The battery 40 is used to provide power to the display 12, motherboard, etc. Referring to fig. 2 and 3, the battery 40 may be fixedly attached to a side surface of the middle plate 22 facing away from the screen 10. For example, the battery 40 may be disposed between the main circuit board 31 and the sub circuit board 32. The surface of the middle plate 22 on the side facing away from the screen 10 is provided with a fitting groove 221, and the battery 40 can be mounted in the fitting groove 221. In this way, the stacking dimension of the battery 40 and the middle plate 22 in the Z-axis direction is advantageously reduced, and the overall thickness of the electronic device 100 is advantageously reduced.
The back cover 50 forms a part of a housing of the electronic apparatus 100, and protects electronic devices such as the circuit board 30, the battery 40, and the like inside the electronic apparatus 100. With continued reference to fig. 2 and 3, the back cover 50 is located on a side of the middle plate 22 away from the screen 10, and the back cover 50 is fixed to the middle frame 20. The back cover 50 and the middle frame 20 enclose a receiving chamber for receiving the main circuit board 31, the sub circuit board 32, the battery 40, and the like. Alternatively, the back cover 50 may be a 2D back cover, a 2.5D back cover, or a 3D back cover.
Referring to fig. 5, fig. 5 is a schematic diagram of a laminated structure of a back cover 50 in the prior art. The back cover 50 includes a substrate 501 and an exterior layer 502 disposed on an outer surface of the substrate 501. The substrate 501 generally includes an acryl (po LYMETHY LMETHACRY L ATE, PMMA) plate, a polycarbonate (po lycarbonate, PC) plate, a composite plate formed by stacking an acryl plate, a polycarbonate plate, a glass fiber plate, and the like. In order to ensure the puncture resistance of the back cover 50 to improve the safety of electronic devices such as the battery 40 in the electronic device 100, the thickness of the back cover 50 needs to be more than 0.5mm, which is not beneficial to further thinning the thickness of the back cover 50, and thus the puncture resistance and the light and thin design of the back cover 50 and the electronic device 100 cannot be achieved.
In order to reduce the thickness of the back cover 50 and ensure the puncture resistance of the back cover 50, refer to fig. 6, wherein fig. 6 is a partial cross-sectional view of the back cover 50 according to some embodiments of the present application. The back cover 50 includes a composite plate 51, and the composite plate 51 includes a first substrate 511 and a reinforcing plate 512. The first substrate 511 is provided with a mounting groove 511a, and the reinforcing plate 512 is fixedly connected to the mounting groove 511a.
Specifically, the first substrate 511 is an insulating member, and the reinforcing plate 512 is a metal plate. The front projection of the reinforcing plate 512 on the reference plane is a first projection, the front projection of the battery 40 on the reference plane is a second projection, the front projection of the antenna radiator 223 on the reference plane is a third projection, the first projection and the second projection overlap, and the first projection and the third projection do not overlap. Wherein the reference plane is perpendicular to the thickness direction of the back cover 50. That is, the reference plane is perpendicular to the Z-axis direction. In this way, when the back cover 50 is applied to the electronic device 100, at least a partial area of the battery 40 may be covered by the reinforcing plate 512, and the antenna radiator 223 may not be covered by the reinforcing plate 512.
Because the metal plate has high structural strength and high hardness and Young's modulus, the penetration resistance of the reinforcing plate 512 can be ensured, but the metal material has a shielding effect on antenna signals. In the back cover 50 according to the embodiment of the present application, the mounting groove 511a is formed on the first substrate 511, and the stiffening plate 512 is disposed in the mounting groove 511a, so that the front projection (i.e. the first projection) of the stiffening plate 512 on the reference plane overlaps with the front projection (i.e. the second projection) of the battery 40 on the reference plane, and the front projection (i.e. the first projection) of the stiffening plate 512 on the reference plane does not overlap with the front projection (i.e. the third projection) of the antenna radiator 223 on the reference plane.
In this way, on one hand, at least part of the area of the battery 40 is covered by the reinforcing plate 512, which is beneficial to avoiding the battery 40 from being pierced by an external sharp object, and improving the safety performance of the battery 40; on the other hand, the antenna radiator 223 can be prevented from being covered by the reinforcing plate 512, the influence of the reinforcing plate 512 on the antenna signal of the electronic device 100 can be avoided, the clearance space of the antenna can be increased, the antenna radiation performance of the electronic device 100 can be improved, the communication signal quality of the electronic device 100 can be improved, and the requirement of the electronic device 100 such as a 5G mobile phone on the communication signal quality can be met.
In some embodiments, to further enhance the safety performance of the battery 40, the second projected outer contour coincides with the first projected outer contour, or the second projected outer contour is within the first projected outer contour. In this way, the whole battery 40 can be covered by the reinforcing plate 512, so that the protection effect of the back cover 50 on the battery 40 can be improved, the battery 40 is prevented from being pierced by an external sharp object, and the safety performance of the battery 40 is ensured.
Specifically, in some embodiments, the material of the stiffener 512 may include at least one of stainless steel, aluminum alloy, magnesium alloy, and copper oxide. Illustratively, the reinforcing plate 512 may be a stainless steel plate, an aluminum alloy plate, a magnesium alloy plate, or a copper-clad plate. The materials have high structural strength, high hardness and Young's modulus, can ensure the puncture resistance of the reinforcing plate 512, are easy to obtain and process, and are beneficial to reducing the cost of the back cover 50.
In other embodiments, the stiffening plate 512 may also be a carbon fiber plate. That is, the material of the reinforcing plate 512 is carbon fiber. The carbon fiber plate has high structural strength, large Young's modulus, good impact resistance and puncture resistance, and small density, and can reduce the weight of the back cover 50 while improving the puncture resistance of the back cover 50, thereby realizing the light and thin design of the back cover 50 and the electronic equipment 100.
In some embodiments, the first substrate 511 is a glass fiber board. The glass fiber board has higher mechanical property and good insulating property, can reduce the thickness of the back cover 50 on the basis of ensuring the puncture resistance and the drop resistance of the back cover 50, and can avoid the influence of the first substrate 511 on the antenna signal of the electronic device 100, thereby being beneficial to improving the antenna radiation performance of the electronic device 100, improving the communication signal quality of the electronic device 100 and meeting the requirements of the electronic device 100 such as a 5G mobile phone and the like on the communication signal quality.
It is understood that in other embodiments, the first substrate 511 may also be an aramid fiber board, an acryl board, a PC board, etc. The material also has higher mechanical property and good insulating property.
Referring to fig. 6, the thickness t1 of the first substrate 511 may be greater than or equal to 0.03mm. In this way, the structural strength of the first substrate 511 can be ensured. Further, the thickness t1 of the first substrate 511 may be less than or equal to 0.3mm. In this way, the entire thickness of the back cover 50 can be reduced while ensuring the structural strength of the first substrate 511.
Illustratively, the first substrate 511 may have a thickness 0.03mm、0.04mm、0.05mm、0.06,mm、0.07mm、0.08mm、0.09mm、0.1mm、0.11mm、0.12mm、0.13mm、0.14mm、0.15mm、0.16mm、0.17mm、0.18mm、0.19mm、0.2mm、0.21mm、0.22mm、0.23mm、0.24mm、0.25mm、0.26mm、0.27mm、0.28mm、0.29mm、0.3mm a or the like. The specific thickness of the first substrate 511 may be adjusted according to the specific structure of the back cover 50.
In some embodiments, the thickness of the stiffener 512 is greater than or equal to 0.03mm and less than or equal to 0.15mm. By way of example, the thickness of the stiffening plate 512 may be 0.03mm, 0.04mm, 0.05mm, 0.06mm, 0.07mm, 0.08mm, 0.09mm, 0.1mm, 0.11mm, 0.12mm, 0.13mm, 0.14mm, 0.15mm, and the like. Thus, the thickness and weight of the back cover 50 can be reduced while ensuring the puncture resistance of the back cover 50, and the light and thin design of the back cover 50 can be realized.
In some embodiments, referring to fig. 7, fig. 7 is a cross-sectional view of the first substrate 511 in the back cover 50 shown in fig. 6. The first substrate 511 includes a first surface 5111 and a second surface 5112 opposite to each other, and the mounting groove 511a penetrates the first surface 5111 and the second surface 5112. That is, the mounting groove 511a is formed as a through groove in the present embodiment. Specifically, the mounting groove 511a includes a first notch 511a1, a second notch 511a2, and a groove side wall 511a3. The first notch 511a1 extends through the first surface 5111 and the second notch 511a2 extends through the second surface 5112, with the slot sidewall 511a3 disposed about the first notch 511a 1. Specifically, the groove sidewall 511a3 is located between the first notch 511a1 and the second notch 511a 2. Simple structure, processing is convenient, and is convenient for the assembly between stiffening plate 512 and the first base plate 511.
It will be appreciated that in other embodiments, the mounting groove 511a may extend through only the first surface 5111 and not through the second surface 5112, in which case the mounting groove 511a may include only the first notch 511a1 and not the second notch 511a2. Or the mounting groove 511a may extend through only the second surface 5112 and not through the first surface 5111, in which case the mounting groove 511a may include only the second notch 511a2 and not the first notch 511a1. So long as the mounting groove 511a penetrates at least one of the first surface 5111 and the second surface 5112.
With continued reference to fig. 6, the stiffening plate 512 includes opposite first and second end faces 5121 and 5122. The first end face 5121 is oriented in the same direction as the first face 5111 and the second end face 5122 is oriented in the same direction as the second face 5112. In some embodiments, the plane of the first end surface 5121 is coplanar with the plane of the first surface 5111, and the plane of the second end surface 5122 is coplanar with the plane of the second surface 5112. In this way, the thickness of the reinforcing plate 512 can be made the same as the depth of the mounting groove 511a, and the thickness of the reinforcing plate 512 can be increased as much as possible without increasing the overall thickness of the back cover 50, so that the thickness of the back cover 50 and the puncture resistance of the back cover 50 can be both achieved.
In some embodiments, the first substrate 511 is adhesively connected to the stiffener 512. Specifically, referring to fig. 6, the reinforcing plate 512 includes a first peripheral wall 5123, and the first peripheral wall 5123 is disposed around the first end face 5121. Specifically, the first peripheral wall 5123 can be connected between the first end face 5121 and the second end face 5122. The reinforcing plate 512 may be fixedly coupled to the mounting groove 511a by means of the first outer circumferential wall 5123.
Illustratively, the first substrate 511 and the stiffener 512 are adhesively connected by a thermosetting adhesive. Optionally, the thermosetting adhesive comprises at least one of epoxy resin, benzoxazine resin, phenolic resin and the like. That is, the thermosetting adhesive may be an epoxy resin, a benzoxazine resin, a phenolic resin, or a blend resin of two or more of epoxy resin, benzoxazine resin, phenolic resin, and the like.
Because the thermosetting adhesive is liquid at normal temperature, the thermosetting adhesive has fluidity, and in the assembly process, the thermosetting adhesive can flow into the gap between the groove side wall 511a3 of the mounting groove 511a and the reinforcing plate 512, thereby being beneficial to increasing the contact area between the reinforcing plate 512 and the groove side wall 511a3 of the mounting groove 511a, and improving the connection strength between the reinforcing plate 512 and the mounting groove 511 a.
Of course, the connection between the first substrate 511 and the reinforcing plate 512 is not limited thereto. In other embodiments, the first substrate 511 and the stiffener 512 may be bonded by a thermoplastic adhesive. Or in still other embodiments, the first substrate 511 and the reinforcing plate 512 may be further connected by welding, in which case a layer of a weldable coating may be provided on the groove side wall 511a3 of the mounting groove 511 a. The solderable coating may be formed on the slot sidewall 511a3 of the mounting slot 511a by physical vapor deposition, chemical vapor deposition, or the like.
On this basis, in order to improve the connection strength between the first substrate 511 and the stiffener 512, please refer to fig. 8, fig. 8 is a top view of the back cover 50 shown in fig. 6. The top view shown in fig. 8 is a schematic view from the first surface 5111 of the first substrate 511 to the second surface 5112 of the first substrate 511. The first peripheral wall 5123 is provided with a first concave groove 5123a. The first recess groove 5123a may be recessed from the first outer peripheral wall 5123 toward the center of the reinforcing plate 512. Wherein, "center of the stiffening plate 512" refers to the geometric center of the stiffening plate 512. The first recess 5123a can be used to accommodate a connection medium such as an adhesive, solder, or the like. In this way, the connection area between the first outer peripheral wall 5123 and the groove side wall 511a3 can be increased, the amount of the connection medium between the first outer peripheral wall 5123 and the groove side wall 511a3 can be increased, and the connection strength between the reinforcing plate 512 and the first base plate 511 can be further improved.
In some embodiments, referring to fig. 9, fig. 9 is a perspective view of the stiffener 512 in the back cover 50 shown in fig. 8. The first recess groove 5123a may be formed as a penetration groove. Specifically, both ends of the first recess 5123a penetrate the first end face 5121 and the second end face 5122, respectively. In this way, the air pressure in the first recess 5123a is reduced, so that the connection medium such as adhesive and solder can flow in the first recess 5123a, and the connection medium such as adhesive and solder can be ensured to fill the first recess 5123a, so that the quantity of the connection medium such as adhesive and solder between the first peripheral wall 5123 and the groove side wall 511a3 can be further increased, and the structure is simple, and the processing is convenient.
In this embodiment, the first recess groove 5123a has a rectangular cross-sectional shape. It is understood that in other embodiments, the cross-sectional shape of the first concave groove 5123a can also be triangular, trapezoidal, semicircular, irregular, etc. Here, the "cross section of the first concave groove 5123 a" refers to a cross section obtained by cutting the first concave groove 5123a with a plane perpendicular to the Z-axis direction.
It will be appreciated that in other embodiments, the first base plate 511 and the reinforcing plate 512 may be integrally connected by metal insert injection molding. Metal insert injection molding (outserr mou ld ing) is a method of pre-fixing a metal insert in place in a mold for an insert mold, and then injecting plastic for molding.
In some embodiments, to further avoid the effect of the stiffening plate 512 on the antenna signal, the minimum distance d between the orthographic projection (i.e., the first projection) of the stiffening plate 512 on the reference plane and the orthographic projection (i.e., the third projection) of the antenna radiator 223 on the reference plane is greater than or equal to 0.3mm. Specifically, a minimum distance d between the outer contour of the first projection and the outer contour of the third projection is greater than or equal to 0.3mm. Illustratively, the minimum spacing may be 0.3mm, 0.5mm, 0.6mm, 0.8mm, 1mm, 1.2mm, 1.5mm, 2mm, etc. Thus, the headroom of the antenna can be ensured, the radiation performance of the antenna can be improved, and the communication quality of the electronic device 100 can be improved.
With reference to fig. 10, fig. 10 is a partial cross-sectional view of a back cover 50 according to another embodiment of the present application. The back cover 50 in the present embodiment is different from the back cover 50 in the embodiment shown in fig. 6 in that the back cover 50 in the present embodiment includes an exterior layer 502 in addition to the composite plate 51. The appearance layer 502 is used for improving the appearance texture and appearance expressive force of the back cover 50. The appearance layer 502 is disposed on a side of the composite plate 51 facing away from the cell 40. Illustratively, the appearance layer 502 may be disposed on a side of the substrate 501 toward which the second surface 5112 faces.
The material of the appearance layer 502 may include, but is not limited to, leather, polyurethane (po lyurethane, PU), thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer (thermop l ast ic po lyurethane, TPU), etc., so that the back cover 50 may exhibit a leather or leather-like appearance effect and feel.
Of course, in some embodiments, some colored or gradient patterns may also be implemented on the appearance layer 502 to enrich the appearance effect of the back cover 50. In addition, the appearance layer 502 may be made of other materials such as polyethylene terephthalate (po LYETHY LENE glyco L TEREPHTHA L ATE, PET), polycarbonate (po lycarbonate, PC), and the like, and a texture pattern or a color pattern may be formed on the appearance layer 502 by transfer printing, silk screen printing, or the like, so as to further enhance the appearance expressive force of the back cover 50.
In this embodiment, the appearance layer 502 is formed on a surface of the composite plate 51 on a side facing away from the battery 40. For example, the exterior layer 502 may be formed on the surface of the composite plate 51 by screen printing, spray coating, chemical vapor deposition, physical vapor deposition, or the like. Or the appearance layer 502 may be attached to the surface of the composite plate 51 by adhesive bonding.
In some embodiments, referring to fig. 10, the thickness t2 of the appearance layer 502 is greater than or equal to 30 micrometers (μm) and less than or equal to 50 micrometers. Illustratively, the thickness of the appearance layer 502 may be 30 μm, 35 μm, 40 μm, 45 μm, 50 μm, etc. In this way, the overall thickness of the back cover 50 can be reduced while ensuring the appearance effect of the back cover 50.
It is understood that the appearance layer 502 of this embodiment may be combined with the back cover 50 of any of the embodiments of the present application. In other embodiments, when the back cover 50 further includes other layers, the exterior layer 502 may be formed on the other layers between the composite plate 51 and the exterior layer 502.
Since the external sharp object impacts the reinforcing plate 512, a sharp protrusion may be formed on the surface of the reinforcing plate 512 facing the battery 40, in order to avoid the sharp protrusion contacting the battery 40 to cause an electrode short circuit, refer to fig. 11-12, fig. 11 is a partial cross-sectional view of the back cover 50 according to still other embodiments of the present application, and fig. 12 is an assembly schematic diagram of the back cover 50 and the battery 40 shown in fig. 11. The back cover 50 in this embodiment includes a first insulating layer 52 in addition to the composite plate 51.
Specifically, referring to fig. 12, the first insulating layer 52 is disposed on a surface of the reinforcing plate 512 facing the battery 40. In this embodiment, the first end 5121 of the reinforcing plate 512 faces the battery 40, and the first insulating layer 52 may be disposed on the first end 5121. In this way, the reinforcing plate 512 can be separated from the battery 40 by the first insulating layer 52, so that the reinforcing plate 512 can be prevented from directly contacting the battery 40, and further, electrode short circuit caused by sharp protrusions formed on the reinforcing plate 512 can be avoided, secondary damage to the battery 40 caused by the sharp protrusions can be effectively avoided, the protection capability of the back cover 50 is greatly improved, and the safety performance of the battery 40 is improved.
The material of the first insulating layer 52 includes acryl, glass fiber, aramid fiber, polyethylene terephthalate (po LYETHY LENE G lyco L TEREPHTHA L ATE, PET, which may also be called a mylar sheet), and the like. These materials have good insulating properties, high structural strength, and high young's modulus, and can further improve the puncture resistance of the back cover 50.
In some embodiments, the thickness t3 of the first insulating layer 52 is greater than or equal to 0.01mm and less than or equal to 0.15mm.

Thus, the design of the back cover 50 can be made thinner while improving the protective performance of the back cover 50.
On this basis, in order to further improve the overall puncture resistance of the back cover 50, referring to fig. 11 to 12, the first insulating layer 52 includes a first portion 521 and a second portion 522, the first portion 521 is disposed on the surface of the reinforcing plate 512 facing the battery 40, and the second portion 522 is disposed on the surface of the first substrate 511 facing the battery 40. Specifically, the first portion 521 is disposed on the first end surface 5121 of the reinforcing plate 512, and the second portion 522 is disposed on the first surface 5111 of the first substrate 511.

In this way, the connection medium for connecting the composite plate 51 and the first insulating layer 52 can be omitted as well, and the connection strength between the first insulating layer 52 and the composite plate 51 can be ensured. In addition, when the first insulating layer 52 includes the first portion 521 and the second portion 522, since the first substrate 511 and the reinforcing plate 512 of the composite board 51 are both connected to the first insulating layer 52, the structural stability of the composite board 51 is improved, and the reinforcing plate 512 is prevented from slipping out of the mounting groove 511a, so that the overall structural stability of the back cover 50 can be further improved.

Alternatively, the first substrate 511 and the first insulating layer 52 may be connected to the reinforcing plate 512 by a metal insert injection molding process. In this way, the assembling process between the first insulating layer 52 and the first substrate 511 can be omitted, and the connection strength between the first insulating layer 52 and the first substrate 511 can be improved.
In still other embodiments, the first insulating layer 52 may also be adhered to the surface of the composite plate 51 by an adhesive. The adhesive can be a thermosetting adhesive or a thermoplastic adhesive.
