Description

Electronic equipment assembly and shell thereof

Technical Field

The invention relates to the technical field of electronic equipment shell structures, in particular to an electronic equipment assembly and a shell thereof.

Background

With the popularization of smart phones and the high speed of mobile networks, electronic devices such as smart phones and tablet computers have become indispensable mobile devices in life. Taking a mobile phone as an example, the weight direction of the current mobile phone is mainly light and thin, so that the mobile phone is convenient for people to carry; mobile phones that come on the market in 2020 have a weight of less than 180 grams; however, some users have some concerns about the lightness and thinness of the mobile phone, and the lightness and thinness of the mobile phone can cause people to feel that the mobile phone is not good in material and easy to lose. Aiming at the crowd who has the demand on weight, the current light and thin mobile phone design can not meet the requirements of the crowd, and certain defects exist.

Because the design direction of the mobile phone is towards the direction of lightness and thinness, for the crowd with the requirement of weight and texture, the user experience of the crowd can be influenced by the lightness and thinness design; for the crowd who has weight feel, because the design of same style cell-phone is fixed, can't make certain give-back to weight feel design, consequently this crowd is a pain point to weight, and the cell-phone of current product can't satisfy this part of crowd's use experience requirement.
