The utility model is described in further detail below with reference to the drawings and examples. It is specifically noted that the following examples are only for illustrating the present utility model, but do not limit the scope of the present utility model. Likewise, the following examples are only some, but not all, of the examples of the present utility model, and all other examples, which a person of ordinary skill in the art would obtain without making any inventive effort, are within the scope of the present utility model.

Reference herein to "an embodiment" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with the embodiment may be included in at least one embodiment of the utility model. The appearances of such phrases in various places in the specification are not necessarily all referring to the same embodiment, nor are separate or alternative embodiments mutually exclusive of other embodiments. Those of skill in the art will explicitly and implicitly appreciate that the embodiments described herein may be combined with other embodiments.

Referring to fig. 1 and 2, fig. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a storage case 10 according to some embodiments of the present utility model, and fig. 2 is a schematic sectional structural diagram of the storage case 10 along A-A in the embodiment of fig. 1.

The storage box 10 can be used for storing electronic equipment, such as wireless headphones and the like; the storage box 10 can also be used for storing articles of daily use, such as medicines. When the storage box 10 is used for storing wireless earphone, the storage box 10 can be used as a charging box of the wireless earphone. The storage box 10 can be used for storing wireless earphones and can charge the wireless earphones so as to improve the convenience of storing and charging the wireless earphones. Of course, in other embodiments, the storage case 10 may be used to store other electronic devices or other objects, and the storage case 10 may not have a charging function.

In the case of the storage case 10 of the present utility model, for example, the charging case of the wireless earphone, the storage case 10 may be rectangular block, cylindrical, prismatic, ellipsoidal or other shapes, which is not limited in this embodiment. The accommodating box 10 is provided with an accommodating cavity 101, and the accommodating cavity 101 can be used for accommodating wireless headphones and also can be used for accommodating circuit boards, batteries and other structural devices.

As used herein, "wireless headset" (or simply TWS headset) includes, but is not limited to, devices using bluetooth technology, infrared technology, 2.4G wireless technology. Wireless headsets are generally divided into three parts: the first part is a sound source, the second part is a receiver, the third part is a headset part, and the function of the headset part is mainly to convert signals transmitted by a mobile phone or a receiver into sound and transmit the sound into ears of a person. The wireless earphone is generally matched with a corresponding wireless earphone charging box, and the electric energy can be stored in the charging box, so that the wireless earphone is charged while the wireless earphone is stored.

The storage box 10 may include a housing 100, where the housing 100 encloses a receiving chamber 101 for receiving a circuit board, a battery, and other structural devices. Specifically, the case 100 may include a cover 110 and a bottom case 120, and the cover 110 is connected to the bottom case 120 and is rotatable with respect to the bottom case 120 to enable the storage case 10 to be in an opened state or a closed state. Optionally, when the storage case 10 is a headset charging case, the receiving cavity 101 is further configured for receiving a headset.

Alternatively, the bottom case 120 may have a groove structure, and the cover 110 may cover the notch of the bottom case 120 and form the accommodating cavity 101 in cooperation with the bottom case 120. Wherein the notch of the bottom case 120 is exposed when the receiving case 10 is in an opened state so as to facilitate the movement of the article in or out. When the storage box 10 is in a closed state, the cover 110 covers the notch of the bottom case 120, so as to protect the articles stored in the storage box 10 to a certain extent.

Alternatively, the bottom case 120 and the cover 110 may have a groove structure, so as to lift the accommodating space of the accommodating cavity 101 when the bottom case 120 and the cover 110 are engaged and surrounded to form the accommodating cavity 101.

Of course, in other embodiments, the housing 100 may include only the bottom case 120, and the bottom case 120 may be an open-ended tank body, that is, the bottom case 120 encloses a receiving cavity 101 with a pick-and-place opening, and an article may be moved into or out of the receiving cavity 101 from the pick-and-place opening.

It is to be understood that the above-described embodiment exemplifies only the structure of the housing 100, but is not limited thereto, i.e., the housing 100 is used to form the outer contour of the storage case 10 and can store articles.

In an embodiment, the cover 110 and the bottom case 120 may be made of plastic, which has low manufacturing cost, light weight, and certain strength, and can protect the wireless earphone stored therein. For example, the cover 110 and the bottom case 120 may be both formed by injection molding. In addition, the cover 110 and the bottom case 120 may be the same color to improve the uniformity of the appearance of the storage case 10. In some other embodiments, the cover 110 and the bottom case 120 may be designed with different colors to show different appearance effects. Meanwhile, a corresponding trademark or LOGO (LOGO) may be disposed on the cover 110 or the bottom case 120 to enhance the appearance of the storage box 10 and improve the brand recognition.

Among them, a trademark or LOGO (LOGO) formed on the surface of the storage box 10 by spraying, printing, laser engraving, transfer printing, or film sticking generally has defects of easy falling, unobvious, easy dirt, easy scraping, and the like. Based on this, the present utility model proposes a new trademark or LOGO (LOGO) arrangement mode to solve the defects in the above-mentioned mode.

It should be noted that all directional indicators (such as up, down, left, right, front, and rear … …) in the embodiments of the present utility model are merely used to explain the relative positional relationship, movement conditions, etc. between the components in a specific posture (as shown in the drawings), and if the specific posture is changed, the directional indicators are correspondingly changed.

Referring to fig. 3 in combination, fig. 3 is a schematic view of a partial enlarged structure of a region B in the embodiment of fig. 2.

The receiving box 10 may further include a light guide 200 and a light source 300 provided in the receiving chamber 101.

The housing 100 may have opposite first and second faces 111, 112. Wherein the first face 111 may be an inner surface of the housing 100, i.e., a surface exposed in the receiving cavity 101. The second surface 112 may be an outer surface of the housing 100, that is, an outer surface of the storage case 10. Optionally, the light guide 200 and the light source 300 are disposed on a side of the first surface 111 facing away from the second surface 112.

The light guide 200 may have a light incident surface 201 and a light emergent surface 202, where the light incident surface 201 is exposed in the accommodating cavity 101 and is opposite to and spaced apart from the light source 300. The light-emitting surface 202 is formed on a surface of the light guide 200 adjacent to the cavity wall of the accommodating cavity 101. Optionally, the light emitting surface 202 is a surface of the light guide 200 near or adjacent to the first surface 111.

Light emitted by the light source 330 enters the light guide 200 from the light incident surface 201 and is emitted through the light emitting surface 202; the light emitted from the light emitting surface 202 can pass through the cavity wall of the accommodating cavity 101 to show a shape pattern of the light emitting surface 202, i.e., a LOGO on the outer surface of the housing 100, i.e., the second surface 112.

It is understood that the shape of the light-emitting surface 202 may be the LOGO shape of the storage case 10, that is, when light is emitted from the light-emitting surface 202 and transmitted through the housing 100, the shape of the light-emitting surface 202 may be displayed on the second surface 112 of the housing 100, that is, LOGO is displayed. Obviously, compared with the LOGO formed on the surface of the storage box 10 by spraying, printing, laser carving, transfer printing or film pasting, the LOGO display setting mode has the advantages that the defects of easy falling, unobvious, easy pollution, easy scraping and the like are basically avoided. Alternatively, the shape of the light emitting surface 202 may be at least one of numerals, letters, chinese characters, and patterns.

Referring to fig. 4 in combination, fig. 4 is a schematic structural diagram of a light guide 200 according to some embodiments of the present utility model, the light guide 200 may have a top surface 203 and a bottom surface 204 disposed opposite to each other, and a side surface 205 disposed between the top surface 203 and the bottom surface 204. Wherein the top surface 203 is located on a side of the bottom surface 204 near the first surface 111. Further, the top surface 203 may be configured to form the light-emitting surface 202, and the bottom surface 204 or the side surface 205 may be configured to form the light-entering surface 201.

When the bottom surface 204 is configured to form the light incident surface 201, the light source 300 is disposed opposite to the bottom surface 204, i.e., the light source 300 may be located on a side of the bottom surface 204 away from the top surface 203.

When the side surface 205 is configured to form the light incident surface 201, the light source is disposed opposite to the side surface 205, i.e., the light source 300 may be located at a side of the light guide 200.

Specifically, the light guide member 200 may be made of a light-transmitting material, and the light emitted from the light source 300 enters the light guide member 200 from the light incident surface 201 and exits the light guide member 200 through the light emergent surface 202. Therefore, the light incident surface 201 can be understood as being used for receiving the light emitted by the light source 300, and the light incident surface 201 needs to be disposed opposite to the light source 300. The light emitting surface 202 may be understood as an emitting surface of the light guide 200, and the shape of the light emitting surface 202 may define a shape that light passes through the housing 100 and emerges on an outer surface of the housing 100. The light guide 200 may be made of glass fiber, polycarbonate (Polycarbonate, PC), polymethyl methacrylate (polymethyl methacrylate, PMMA), or glass.

Generally, the surfaces other than the light incident surface 201 and the light emergent surface 202 on the light guide 200 generally do not enter or emit light, and thus it is necessary to perform surface treatment on the surface of the light guide 200 that does not enter or emit light to block light transmission.

Further, the light guide 200 may further include a light blocking surface 206, where the light blocking surface 206 is coated with a light blocking material, that is, light emitted from the light source 300 does not pass through or can pass through the light blocking surface 206 to enter the light guide 200, and light in the light guide 200 passes through or can pass through the light blocking surface 206 to exit the light guide 200. The light blocking surface 206, the light incident surface 201, and the light exiting surface 202 together form an outer surface of the light guide 200. In other words, the outer surface of the light guide 200 except the light incident surface 201 and the light emergent surface 202 may be the light blocking surface 206.

When the bottom surface 204 is configured to form the light incident surface 201 and the top surface 203 is configured to form the light emergent surface 202, the light blocking surface 206 includes a side surface 205. When the side surface 205 is configured to form the light incident surface 201 and the top surface 203 is configured to form the light emergent surface 202, the light blocking surface 206 includes the bottom surface 204. When the light-emitting surface 202 is a part of the surface of the top surface 203, the light-blocking surface 206 includes another part of the surface of the top surface 203. The light shielding material coated on the light blocking surface 206 may be light shielding ink, a metal film, or the like. It can be appreciated that by providing the light blocking surface 206, the light emitting brightness of the light emitting surface 202 can be improved.

As shown in fig. 4, when the light-emitting surface 202 is in the shape of an "OPPO" letter formed on the top surface 203, the area where the line of the "OPPO" letter is located is the light-emitting surface 202, and the area other than the line of the OPPO "letter is the light-blocking surface 206.

In one embodiment, the light guide 200 is made of a light-transmitting material, in which a light diffusing agent is mixed; wherein the mass ratio of the light diffusion agent to the light transmission material is 1% -5%. For example, the light guide 200 is made of PC material, and the light diffusing agent with a mass ratio of 1% -5% is added to the PC material, so that the light mixing effect of the light in the light guide 200 can be ensured. Alternatively, the light diffusing agent may be an organic light diffusing powder, such as a silicone powder, which may enhance the diffusion of light in the light guide 200. In the specific manufacturing, the light diffusion agent is added into the light-transmitting material, and then the light guide piece 200 is manufactured by injection molding, and the light guide piece 200 has good light diffusivity, so that the light emitted from the light guide piece 200 has good softness, namely, the light-transmitting and opaque comfortable effect can be achieved, and the light emitted from the light guide piece 200 is ensured not to be dazzling while having enough brightness.

In one embodiment, the light guide 200 is made of a transparent material, and titanium dioxide is mixed therein; wherein the mass ratio of the titanium dioxide to the light-transmitting material is 1-3 per mill. Specifically, when the light-emitting surface 202 has excessive light-emitting brightness and generates halation, the light-emitting brightness of the light-emitting surface 202 can be reduced by increasing the proportion of the light diffusing agent or adding titanium white in the light guide 200.

In an embodiment, the housing 100 may be made of a light-transmitting material, that is, the light emitted from the light guide 200 may be transmitted through the housing 100 to show the shape of the light-emitting surface 202 on the appearance surface of the housing 100, so as to display the LOGO. In other words, the shape of the light-emitting surface 202 can be adjusted such that the light transmitted through the housing 100 presents a pattern, i.e. LOGO, matching the shape of the light-emitting surface 202. Optionally, the material of the housing 100 may be a light-transmitting material such as fiberglass, PC, PMMA, or glass. Those skilled in the art may select different materials according to different requirements, so as to adapt to the housing 100 in different application scenarios, which is not limited. For example, PC substrate is lighter and thinner, glass fiber substrate has better toughness, PMMA substrate is highly transparent and easy to process, glass substrate transparency is better, etc. Preferably, the housing 100 in the embodiment of the present utility model is made of plastic materials such as PC or PMMA, which has low manufacturing cost, light weight and certain strength.

Optionally, the internal articles/internal structures of the case 10 are visually invisible in appearance, so that the case 10 has a good consistency in appearance. At this time, the light emitted from the light source 330 may be transmitted through the case 100 by locally thinning the case 100, and a pattern matching the shape of the light emitting surface 202 may be displayed on the outer surface of the case 100. For example, when the housing 100 is made of a plastic material such as PC or PMMA, the housing 100 manufactured based on the strength requirement makes the storage case 10 generally invisible from the external view. At this time, the case 100 may be partially thinned so that the light emitted from the light guide 200 passes through the case 100 and the light-emitting surface 202 appears on the outer surface of the case 100, that is, the LOGO appears.

Alternatively, the internal articles/internal structures of the storage case 10 are visually visible in appearance, and the light shielding material/film layer may be covered on the surface of the case 100, so that the storage case 10 has better appearance consistency. At this time, the area covered by the light shielding material/film layer is avoided from the light emitting surface 202, so that the light emitted by the light source 330 is transmitted through the housing 100 and a pattern matching the shape of the light emitting surface 202 is displayed on the outer surface of the housing 100. For example, when the case 100 is made of a transparent material such as fiberglass or glass, the housing case 10 is generally visually visible in appearance. At this time, the light shielding treatment may be partially performed on the case 100 so that the light emitted from the light guide 200 passes through the portion of the case 100 that is not shielded from light and the shape of the light emitting surface 202, that is, the LOGO, appears on the outer surface of the case 100.

Referring again to fig. 3, the case 10 may further include a circuit board 400. The circuit board 400 is disposed on one side of the first surface 111 of the housing 100, and the circuit board 400 is disposed in the accommodating cavity 101 and on a side of the light guide 200 facing away from the housing 100. The light source 330 is disposed on the circuit board 400. The storage box 10 may further include a battery disposed in the accommodating cavity 101 and electrically connected to the circuit board 400 to provide power for the light source 300 to emit light. It can be appreciated that the storage box 10 may further be provided with a USB interface, and the USB interface may penetrate through the housing 100, so as to be used for connecting an external power source to charge the battery, so as to perform cruising on the battery in the storage box 10.

Optionally, the circuit board 400 is spaced apart from the light guide 200, and the light source 330 is disposed on a side of the circuit board 400 near the light guide 200. The circuit board 400 may be fixedly connected to the housing 100 by bolts or brackets on the housing 100.

Of course, in other embodiments, when the side surface 205 is configured to form the light incident surface 201, the light source is disposed opposite to the side surface 205, that is, the light source 300 may be located at a side of the light guide 200, the circuit board 400 has a portion protruding from the light guide 200, the light source 330 is disposed at a side of the circuit board 400 near the light guide 200 and at a portion of the circuit board 400 protruding from the light guide 200, and the light source 300 is disposed opposite to the side surface 205, that is, the light incident surface 201 at a distance.

As described above, the light source 300 is disposed opposite to the light incident surface 201 at a distance. Too large or too small a distance between the light source 300 and the light incident surface 201 affects the light efficiency emitted from the light emergent surface 202, i.e. affects the light mixing effect of the light in the light guide 200. Based on this, the applicant has found that when the interval between the light source 300 and the light incident surface 201 is 0.5-2.0mm, the light emitted from the light emergent surface 202 has a good effect. For example, the interval between the light source 300 and the light incident surface 201 may be 0.6mm, 0.7mm, 0.8mm, 0.9mm, 1.0mm, 1.5mm, 1.8mm, or the like.

In an embodiment, the light emitted by the light source 300 may be one of red light, blue light, green light, and white light; the light source 300 may be provided in plural, and at least some of the light sources 300 among the plural light sources 300 emit different colors of light. For example, the light source 300 may include an RGB three-color light source, and the light emitted from the RGB three-color light source mixes light in the light guide 300 and is emitted from the light emitting surface 202. The light emitting of different colors can be realized by adjusting the duty ratio of each color in the RGB three-color light source, i.e. the LOGO patterns of different colors can be displayed on the appearance surface of the storage box 10. It can be understood that red light, blue light and green light are used as optical three primary colors, and can generate various colored lights after being mixed in different proportions.

Referring to fig. 5, fig. 5 is a schematic partial cross-sectional view of a storage case 10 according to another embodiment of the utility model, and the storage case 10 may further include a light-shielding member 500, where the light-shielding member 500 surrounds the periphery of the light source 300. When the light guide 200 and the circuit board 400 are disposed at intervals, opposite sides of the light blocking member 500 respectively abut against the light guide 200 and the circuit board 400, so as to avoid light leakage.

The light-insulating member 500 may be light-insulating foam, light-insulating rubber, or the like, so that not only the light leakage phenomenon may be avoided, but also a buffer effect may be achieved between the light-guiding member 200 and the circuit board 400.

Referring to fig. 6 to 8 in combination, fig. 6 is a schematic view of a part of the structure of the storage case 10 according to other embodiments of the present utility model, fig. 7 is a schematic view of a separation of the structure of the storage case 10 according to the embodiment of fig. 6, and fig. 8 is a schematic view of a part of a cross-sectional structure of the storage case 10 according to the embodiment of fig. 6.

A groove 102 is formed on the first face 111 of the housing 100, and a notch of the groove 102 communicates with the accommodating chamber 101, that is, it can be understood that a chamber wall of the accommodating chamber 101 is provided with the groove 102. The spacing between the bottom wall of the recess 102 and the second face 112 of the housing 100 is no more than 0.5mm so that light emitted from the light guide 200 is able to pass through the housing 100 and exhibit a LOGO at the second face 112.

The light guide 200 is at least partially embedded in the groove 102, that is, the light emitting surface 202 of the light guide 200 is located in the groove 102 and is disposed opposite to the bottom wall of the groove 102. Thus, the light emitted from the light-emitting surface 202 can directly irradiate the bottom wall of the groove 102 and transmit the bottom wall of the groove 102 to show the shape of the light-emitting surface 202, i.e. LOGO, on the second surface 112. It will be appreciated that for a housing 100 made of plastic material, its light transmittance may be 30% -50% when its thickness is no more than 0.5mm. The light is concentrated at the groove 102 of the shell 100 through the light guide 200, the shape of the light emitting surface 202 is shown on the second surface 112 of the shell 100 by utilizing the light transmittance of the shell 100, and the effect of hiding the LOGO can be realized when the light source 300 does not emit light.
