Wherein the mounting portion 11 includes an electrical connection portion 111, and the camera module 20 includes an electrical connection mating portion 21. When the camera module 20 is in an operating state, the electrical connection fitting portion 21 is in electrical contact with the electrical connection portion 111 for signal communication between the camera module 20 and the apparatus body 10, and the camera module 20 is rotatable relative to the mounting portion 11.

It will be appreciated that the device body 10 is a main part of the electronic device 100 and may be considered as part of the electronic device 100 other than the camera assembly 20. Fig. 2 and 3 exemplarily show a case where the electronic device 100 is a notebook computer, and the device body 10 is a main body portion of the notebook computer. Alternatively, the apparatus body 10 may include a first housing 12, a second housing 13, and a display screen 14, the display screen 14 being disposed on the second housing 13. The second housing 13 is rotatably connected with the first housing 12 to enable the apparatus body 10 to be switched between a closed state and an open state. When the device body 10 is in a closed state, the second housing 13 covers the first housing 12, and the display surface of the display screen 14 faces the first housing 12; when the device body 10 is in an open state, an included angle between the second housing 13 and the first housing 12 is greater than 0 °.

Of course, in other embodiments, the electronic device 100 may be an electronic device such as a display without a control function, and the device body 10 may not have a component such as a central processing unit.

The mounting portion 11 is a part of the apparatus body 10 for providing a mounting position for the camera assembly 20 when the camera assembly 20 is in an operating state. The mounting portion 11 may be formed at any part of the apparatus body 10, and fig. 2 illustrates a case where the mounting portion 11 is formed on the second housing 13 of the apparatus body 10 by way of example.

It will be appreciated that camera assembly 20 is a camera-enabled assembly that can be used to capture images of selected objects and form corresponding image information, and generally includes camera 22. The electrical connection portion 111 and the electrical connection mating portion 21 each include a conductor material to enable contact and electrical conduction, i.e., electrical contact, between the two. The electrical connection portion 111 and the electrical connection mating portion 21 may each have various regular or irregular shapes, and may be, for example, a ring structure, a pin structure, a rod structure, a sheet structure, a block structure, a protrusion structure, a snap structure, or the like, but are not limited thereto, as long as they can be electrically contacted. The structure of the electrical connection portion 111 and the structure of the electrical connection fitting portion 21 may be the same or different. Alternatively, the electrical connection 111 may be electrically connected to a device circuit board of the device body 10, for example, the electrical connection 111 may be electrically connected to the device circuit board by wires, a circuit board, or other conductor structures. Alternatively, the electrical connection mating portion 21 may be electrically connected with the camera 22 of the camera assembly 20, for example, the electrical connection mating portion 21 may be electrically connected with the camera 22 through a wire, a circuit board, or other conductor structure.

Referring to fig. 2 and fig. 4 to fig. 6, when the camera module 20 is in an operating state, the camera module 20 is in electrical contact with the electrical connection portion 111 through the electrical connection mating portion 21 thereof, so as to be in signal communication with the device body 10, the device body 10 may receive signals from the camera module 20, or the signals may be various types of signals, for example, the device body 10 may control the camera module 20 to perform shooting operation. In addition, the camera module 20 can rotate relative to the mounting portion 11 when in an operating state, that is, the camera module 20 is rotatably matched with the mounting portion 11, so that the view angle or the line of sight of the camera module 20 can be changed when the camera module 20 rotates relative to the mounting portion 11, that is, the shooting angle of the camera module 20 can be changed.

Referring to fig. 3, when the camera module 20 is in the separated state, the camera module 20 is separated from the mounting portion 11, and the electrical connection mating portion 21 is also separated from the electrical connection portion 111. In the separated state, the camera module 20 may be disposed at any other position of the apparatus body 10 than the mounting portion 11, so as to be convenient for storage, and of course, the camera module 20 may not be in contact with the apparatus body 10, and may be disposed on other various objects.

As can be seen from the above, when the camera assembly 20 is needed, the electronic device 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application can connect the camera assembly 20 to the mounting portion 11 to be in a working state, and when the camera assembly 20 is not needed, the camera assembly 20 can be detached from the mounting portion 11 to be in a separated state, so that the electronic device is convenient to store, and does not need to be fixedly arranged on the device body 10 all the time, so that the space occupation of the device body 10 can be reduced, and further, the influence on the component arrangement of the device body 10 can be reduced (for example, the influence on the size design of the display screen 14 of the device body 10 can be reduced, the high screen occupation ratio can be realized, and the design possibility of the electronic device 100 can be widened. And, when the camera module 20 is in the operating condition, can realize the signal communication between the camera module 20 and the equipment body 10 through electric connection cooperation portion 21 and electric connection portion 111 electric contact, do benefit to the convenience that carries out signal communication between the improvement camera module 20 and the equipment body 10, and the mode that direct electric contact realized signal communication, compare in the mode that wireless communication connection realized signal communication, do benefit to the simplification structure to can improve the reliability of signal communication. Meanwhile, when the camera assembly 20 is in a working state, the camera assembly 20 can rotate relative to the mounting part 11, namely, the shooting visual angle or angle of the camera assembly 20 can be changed, the problem of single shooting angle is effectively solved, and the requirement of multi-angle shooting of a user is met.

Next, the engagement between the electrical connection portion 111 and the electrical connection engagement portion 21 will be further described.

Referring to fig. 4 to 10, fig. 7 is a schematic diagram illustrating a partial top view of an apparatus body 10 according to another embodiment of the present application, fig. 8 is a schematic diagram illustrating a bottom view of a camera module 20 according to another embodiment of the present application, fig. 9 is a schematic diagram illustrating a partial top view of an apparatus body 10 according to another embodiment of the present application, and fig. 10 is a schematic diagram illustrating a partial structure of a camera module 20 according to another embodiment of the present application connected to a mounting portion 11 of the apparatus body 10 according to fig. 9 when the camera module 20 is in an operating state.

In some embodiments, one of the electrical connection portion 111 and the electrical connection mating portion 21 includes the first structure 101, and the first structure 101 is a circular ring structure or a circular arc structure. The other of the electrical connection portion 111 and the electrical connection mating portion 21 is in electrical contact with the first structure 101 and is rotatable relative to the first structure 101 about an axis a of the first structure 101 when the camera assembly 20 is in an operative state.

It will be appreciated that referring to fig. 4 to 6, when the electrical connection portion 111 includes the first structure 101, the electrical connection mating portion 21 is in electrical contact with the first structure 101 when the camera module 20 is in an operating state, and can rotate relative to the first structure 101 about the axis a of the first structure 101, so as to facilitate rotation of the camera module 20 relative to the mounting portion 11, thereby changing the viewing angle or line of sight of the camera module 20.

Similarly, referring to fig. 8 to 10, when the electrical connection mating portion 21 includes the first structure 101, the electrical connection portion 111 is in electrical contact with the first structure 101 when the camera module 20 is in the operating state, and can rotate relative to the first structure 101 about the axis a of the first structure 101, so as to facilitate rotation of the camera module 20 relative to the mounting portion 11, thereby changing the viewing angle or line of sight of the camera module 20.

The first structure 101 may be a circular ring structure or a circular arc structure. Referring to fig. 5 and 8, fig. 5 and 8 illustrate a case where the first structure 101 is a circular structure. The circular ring structure is a structure having a substantially circular ring shape, that is, a substantially circular shape in orthographic projection along the direction of the axis a thereof, but the outline of the cross section (that is, a cross section perpendicular to the axis a of the circular ring structure) is not limited to a circular shape, and may have a shape similar to a circular shape, for example, a shape similar to a circular shape formed by connecting a plurality of sections of straight lines, a shape similar to a circular shape formed by connecting straight lines and arcs, and the like, but is not limited thereto. The annular structure may be an annular structure of various structural forms, such as a sheet-like annular structure, a cylindrical annular structure, or the like, but is not limited thereto.

Similarly, referring to fig. 7, fig. 7 illustrates a case where the first structure 101 is a circular arc structure. The circular arc structure is a structure having a substantially circular arc shape, that is, a substantially circular arc shape in orthographic projection along the direction of the axis a thereof, and the outline of the cross section (that is, a cross section perpendicular to the axis a of the circular arc structure) is not limited to the circular arc shape, but may have a shape similar to the circular arc shape, for example, a shape similar to the circular arc shape formed by connecting a plurality of straight lines, a shape similar to the circular arc shape formed by connecting a straight line and a circular arc line, and the like. The central angle of orthographic projection of the arc-shaped structure along the direction of the axis a of the arc-shaped structure can be any angle larger than 0 degrees, and the central angle can be specifically set according to the needs. The circular arc structure may be a circular arc structure of various structural forms, such as a sheet-like circular arc structure, a wall-like circular ring structure, or the like, but is not limited thereto.

When the first structure 101 is in a circular structure, the electrical connection portion 111 or the electrical connection mating portion 21 that is in electrical contact with the first structure 101 may rotate along the circumferential direction of the circular structure, and the rotatable angle is larger than the rotatable angle of the electrical connection portion 111 or the electrical connection mating portion 21 that is in electrical contact with the first structure 101 when the first structure 101 is in a circular arc structure. Therefore, the angular range of rotation of the camera module 20 about the axis a of the first structure 101 with respect to the mounting portion 11 when the first structure 101 is a circular-arc-shaped structure is larger than the angular range of rotation of the camera module 20 about the axis a of the first structure 101 with respect to the mounting portion 11 when the first structure 101 is a circular-arc-shaped structure. It should be understood that the axis a is not an actual existing line, but an imaginary line defined to facilitate an understanding of the solution.

So set up, when camera subassembly 20 is in operating condition and rotates for installation department 11, one of electric connection portion 111 and electric connection cooperation portion 21 promptly rotates for first structure 101 around the axis a of first structure 101, and the in-process of rotation both still can realize electric contact, therefore camera subassembly 20 still can with equipment body 10 signal communication between the in-process of rotation, do benefit to camera subassembly 20 pivoted in-process and also can take the photograph the work.

Alternatively, in some embodiments, referring to fig. 4 to 6 and 8 to 10, the electrical connection part 111 includes a plurality of sub-connection parts 1111 and the electrical connection fitting part 21 includes a plurality of sub-connection fitting parts 211. When the camera module 20 is in the working state, the sub-connection mating parts 211 and the sub-connection parts 1111 are in one-to-one correspondence, the corresponding sub-connection mating parts 211 and the sub-connection parts 1111 form one electric connection group, and one of the sub-connection mating parts 211 and the sub-connection parts 1111 of at least one electric connection group comprises the first structure 101, and the other is in electric contact with the first structure 101. Thus, when the camera head assembly 20 is in an operating state and rotates relative to the mounting portion 11, one of the sub-connection fitting portion 211 and the sub-connection portion 1111 rotates relative to the first structure 101 about the axis a of the first structure 101 in the electrical connection group including the first structure 101.

It is understood that a plurality refers to a plurality of two and more. The one-to-one correspondence of the sub-connection fitting portions 211 and the sub-connection portions 1111 means that one sub-connection fitting portion 211 corresponds to one sub-connection portion 1111 and is capable of electrical contact. The sub-connection fitting portion 211 and the sub-connection portion 1111 each include a conductor material so that both can be brought into contact and electrically conducted, i.e., electrically contacted. The sub-connection fitting portion 211 and the sub-connection portion 1111 may each have various regular or irregular shapes, and may be, for example, a ring structure, a pin structure, a rod structure, a sheet structure, a block structure, a protrusion structure, a snap structure, or the like, but are not limited thereto, as long as they can be electrically contacted. The structure of the sub-connection fitting portion 211 and the structure of the sub-connection portion 1111 may be the same or different.

It should be understood that the electrical connection set is composed of one sub-connection mating portion 211 and one sub-connection portion 1111 that are corresponding and electrically contacted, and the electrical connection set is defined for convenience of description, not particularly designating another component. It is possible that all groups of electrical connections comprise the first structure 101; it is also possible that one or more of the electrical connection groups comprise the first structure 101 and that there is at least one electrical connection group that does not comprise the first structure 101. When the electrical connection group includes the first structure 101, the sub-connection portion 1111, which may be an electrical connection group, includes the first structure 101, and the sub-connection fitting portion 211 is in electrical contact with the first structure 101; the sub-connection fitting portion 211, which may also be an electrical connection group, includes the first structure 101, and the sub-connection portion 1111 is in electrical contact with the first structure 101.

So configured, when the camera module 20 is in the working state, the sub-connection mating parts 211 of the electrical connection mating part 21 and the sub-connection parts 1111 of the electrical connection part 111 are in one-to-one correspondence and are in electrical contact, so that one signal can be transmitted by the corresponding and electrically contacted sub-connection mating part 211 and one sub-connection part 1111, and various signals can be transmitted between the camera module 20 and the device body 10, for example, but not limited to, signals such as a power signal, a data signal of the camera, and the like can be transmitted.

Alternatively, referring to fig. 4 to 10, at least two electrical connection groups include the first structure 101, and a plurality of electrical connection groups, which may be two, three or more, include the first structure 101. When the camera assembly 20 is in the working state, the first structures 101 are coaxially disposed, and the orthographic projections of the first structures 101 along the direction of the axis of the first structures 101 are disposed at intervals, that is, the orthographic projections of the first structures 101 along the direction of the axis a of the first structures 101 are approximately concentric circles, that is, the center of circles of orthographic projections of the first structures 101 along the direction of the axis a of the first structures 101 are the same but the radii of circles are different.

So set up, when camera subassembly 20 is in operating condition, not only can reduce the possibility that takes place the mutual interference between each first structure 101, and when the camera subassembly 20 is rotatory for installation department 11 moreover, the sub-connection cooperation portion 211 or the sub-connection portion 1111 that are in electrical contact with first structure 101 is rotatory around same axis a, and difficult emergence is interfered each other, does benefit to the stability that improves the signal communication between camera subassembly 20 and the installation department 11. In addition, the first structures 101 are coaxially arranged and are arranged at intervals along the orthographic projection of the direction of the axis a of the first structures 101, so that the space utilization rate can be improved, and the occupation of the space by the first structures 101 can be reduced.

Of course, in other embodiments, only one set of electrical connections may comprise the first structure 101. In this case, if at least two kinds of signals need to be transmitted between the camera module 20 and the apparatus body 10, besides the electrical connection group including the first structure 101, one kind of signals may be transmitted, the sub-connection portion 1111 and the sub-connection mating portion 211 of one of the remaining electrical connection groups may be penetrated by the axis a of the first structure 101, and when the camera module 20 is in an operating state and rotates around the axis a relative to the mounting portion 11, the sub-connection portion 1111 and the sub-connection mating portion 211 penetrated by the axis a of the first structure 101 may be always electrically contacted, or one kind of signals may be transmitted.

Alternatively, referring to fig. 6 and 10, when the camera module 20 is in the working state, the axis a of the first structure 101 passes through the sub-connection portion 1111 and the sub-connection mating portion 211 of one of the electrical connection groups, that is, the sub-connection portion 1111 and the sub-connection mating portion 211 of the electrical connection group are on the axis a of the first structure 101.

So set up, when camera subassembly 20 is in operating condition and around axis a for installation department 11 rotation, be worn by axis a to establish sub-connecting portion 1111 and sub-connection mating part 211 can be electric contact all the time and relative rotation, and sub-connecting portion 1111 and sub-connection mating part 211 need not to set up to ring shape structure or convex structure, do benefit to the simplification structure.

Of course, in other embodiments, all the sub-connection portions 1111 and the sub-connection mating portions 211 of the electrical connection group may not be penetrated by the axis a, for example, all the electrical connection groups may include the first structure 101.

For example, referring to fig. 4 to 6 and 8 to 10, the electrical connection part 111 includes four sub-connection parts 1111 and the electrical connection fitting part 21 includes four sub-connection fitting parts 211. When the camera module 20 is in the working state, the four sub-connection portions 1111 are in one-to-one correspondence with and electrically contact with the four sub-connection mating portions 211, so that four electrical connection groups can be formed. Wherein three electrical connection groups include the first structure 101, and the sub-connection portion 1111 and the sub-connection fitting portion 211 of the remaining one electrical connection group are penetrated by the axis a of the first structure 101. Alternatively, four electrical connection sets may be used to transmit four signals, such as a power signal, a ground signal, and two data signals, which may be differential signals, although other types of signals are possible.

Alternatively, referring to fig. 5, 6, 9 and 10, the mounting portion 11 has a groove 110, and the sub-coupling portion 1111 is disposed inside the groove 110. When the camera module 20 is in the working state, the sub-connection fitting portion 211 is at least partially located inside the groove 110, i.e. the sub-connection fitting portion 211 may be partially or completely located inside the groove 110.

It is understood that the groove 110 may be a groove of various shapes, such as a circular groove, a square groove, a circular groove, etc., but is not limited thereto. Since the first structure 101 needs to be relatively rotated with the sub-connection fitting portion 211 or the sub-connection portion 1111 of the electrical connection group including the first structure 101, the recess 110 should be shaped and sized to allow the first structure 101 to be relatively rotated with the sub-connection fitting portion 211 or the sub-connection portion 1111.

So configured, on the one hand, the sub-connection portion 1111 is accommodated inside the groove 110, so that it is not required to be protruded outside, and the possibility that the sub-connection portion 1111 is protruded outside the apparatus body 10 when the camera assembly 20 is in the separated state and is easily damaged or scratched by other objects or users is reduced; and is advantageous in improving the aesthetic appearance of the apparatus body 10 when the camera module 20 is in the separated state; meanwhile, the sub-connection fitting portion 211 may be electrically contacted with the sub-connection portion 1111 in the inside of the groove 110, so that external interference may be reduced, and reliability of the electrical contact of the sub-connection fitting portion 211 with the sub-connection portion 1111 may be improved. On the other hand, when the camera module 20 is in the working state, since the sub-connection matching portion 211 is at least partially located in the groove 110, the connection between the camera module 20 and the mounting portion 11 can be positioned, which is beneficial to improving the accuracy and convenience of connection between the camera module 20 and the mounting portion 11, and the inner wall of the groove 110 can play a certain limiting role on the sub-connection matching portion 211, which is beneficial to improving the reliability of connection between the camera module 20 and the mounting portion 11.

Optionally, referring to fig. 6 and 10, the camera module 20 further includes a camera 22 electrically connected to the electrical connection mating portion 21. When the camera head assembly 20 is in an operative state, the camera head 22 is positioned outside the recess 110.

It will be appreciated that camera 22 refers to a structural component, typically including a lens component, capable of capturing images of a selected object and forming corresponding image information. The camera 22 may be various types of cameras, and may be specifically set as needed.

So set up, when camera subassembly 20 is in operating condition and rotates for installation department 11, because camera 22 is located the outside of recess 110, be difficult for being sheltered from in the rotatory in-process of camera 22, the camera 22 of being convenient for carries out the work of making a video recording. Meanwhile, since the camera 22 does not need to be disposed inside the groove 110, the depth dimension of the groove 110 does not need to be excessively large, which is beneficial to reducing the dimension of the groove 110 and reducing the occupation of the space of the device body 10.

Illustratively, the depth of the groove 110 may be greater than 0 and less than or equal to 5mm, for example, may be 1mm, 1.5mm, 2mm, 2.5mm, 3mm, 4mm, etc., but is not limited thereto. In this way, the depth dimension of the groove 110 is smaller, which can effectively reduce the occupation of the space of the device body 10, further reduce the influence on the design of other parts of the device body 10 such as the display screen 14, and facilitate the improvement of the appearance aesthetic degree of the device body 10.

Optionally, referring to fig. 11 and 12, fig. 11 is a schematic view illustrating a partial structure of the camera module 20 connected to the device body 10 when the camera module is in an operating state according to other embodiments of the present application, and fig. 12 is a schematic view illustrating a partial top view of the device body 10 shown in fig. 11. The number of the grooves 110 is plural, and the grooves 110 are arranged in one-to-one correspondence with the sub-connection portions 1111, i.e. one sub-connection portion 1111 is arranged in one groove 110, and the number of the grooves 110 is the same as the number of the sub-connection portions 1111.

It should be appreciated that, since the grooves 110 are disposed in one-to-one correspondence with the sub-connection portions 1111, and the sub-connection mating portions 211 need to rotate relative to the sub-connection portions 1111 when the camera module 20 is in an operating state and rotates relative to the mounting portion 11, the grooves 110 should be shaped to allow the sub-connection mating portions 211 and the sub-connection portions 1111 to rotate relative to each other, for example, the grooves 110 may be substantially annular or circular.

Thus, when the camera module 20 is in the working state, each sub-connection fitting portion 211 is located inside one groove 110 to be in electrical contact with the sub-connection portion 1111, so that each sub-connection fitting portion 211 can be aligned and fitted with one groove 110, and the accuracy and reliability of connection between the camera module 20 and the mounting portion 11 can be further improved.

For example, referring to fig. 11 and 12, each groove 110 may be sequentially disposed around from inside to outside, the innermost groove 110 may be circular, and the other grooves 110 around the circular groove 110 may be annular. The sub-connection 1111 penetrated by the axis a of the first structure 101 may be located inside the circular groove 110.

Of course, in other embodiments, the number of grooves 110 may be different from the number of sub-connectors 1111, and the number of grooves 110 may be one or more. It is possible that a plurality of sub-coupling parts 1111 are located inside the same groove 110.

Alternatively, referring to fig. 5 and 6, in the sub-connection portion 1111 and the sub-connection mating portion 211 of at least one electrical connection group, the sub-connection portion 1111 includes a first structure 101, the first structure 101 is disposed inside the groove 110, and the sub-connection mating portion 211 includes a protruding structure 2111. The protruding structure 2111 is at least partially located inside the recess 110 and is in electrical contact with the first structure 101 when the camera assembly 20 is in an operational state.

It is to be understood that the protruding structure 2111 is a protruding structure, and may be a protruding structure with various regular or irregular shapes, for example, but not limited to, a cylindrical shape, a prismatic shape, and the like.

So configured, since the sub-connection portion 1111 includes the first structure 101 and the first structure 101 is disposed in the groove 110, the installation portion 11 is more beneficial to forming a concave structure or a planar structure, compared with a convex structure, the possibility that the installation portion 11 is protruded outside the apparatus body 10 when the camera assembly 20 is in a separated state and is easily damaged or easily scratched by other objects or users can be reduced, and the appearance of the apparatus body 10 is more attractive; the sub-connection mating portion 211 includes a protruding structure 2111, so as to extend into the recess 110 to electrically contact the first structure 101, which is beneficial to improving the reliability of the electrical contact between the protruding structure 2111 and the first structure 101.

Alternatively, referring to fig. 5 and 6, the first structure 101 may be disposed on the inner bottom wall of the recess 110, so as to be more beneficial to electrically contact with the protruding structure 2111, thereby improving the reliability of the electrical contact between the protruding structure 2111 and the first structure 101 when the camera module 20 is in the working state. Of course, in other embodiments, the first structure 101 may also be disposed on the inner sidewall of the groove 110.

Of course, in other embodiments, referring to fig. 8 to 10, the sub-connection portion 1111 may include a protruding structure 2111, and the sub-connection mating portion 211 may include the first structure 101. When the camera module 20 is in the working state, the first structure 101 can extend into the groove 110 and electrically contact with the protruding structure 2111. The sub-connection fitting portion 211 may be provided convexly.

It should be noted that the recess 110 is not necessary, and in other embodiments, the mounting portion 11 may not have the recess 110. The sub connection part 1111 may be embedded in a housing provided to the apparatus body 10 without protruding; of course, the sub-connection portion 1111 may also protrude from the housing of the apparatus body 10, in this case, the camera assembly 20 may optionally be provided with a groove structure, the sub-connection mating portion 211 may be disposed inside the groove structure, and when the camera assembly 20 is in the working state, the sub-connection portion 1111 may extend into the groove structure and electrically contact with the sub-connection mating portion 211, so as to facilitate positioning of the relative positions of the sub-connection portion 1111 and the sub-connection mating portion 211, and improve reliability of electrical contact between the sub-connection portion 1111 and the sub-connection mating portion 211.

Alternatively, in some embodiments, referring to fig. 5 and 8, the first structure 101 is a closed annular structure, i.e., a continuous annular structure without disconnection, i.e., a closed loop structure.

So set up, when camera subassembly 20 is in operating condition and is rotatory around axis a for installation department 11, electric connection portion 111 or electric connection cooperation portion 21 is rotatory for first structure 101 promptly, because first structure 101 is closed ring shape structure, electric connection portion 111 or electric connection cooperation portion 21 can 360 rotations for first structure 101 circumference, and electric contact all the time, therefore camera subassembly 20 can carry out 360 rotations for installation department 11, and with equipment body 10 signal communication all the time, can further improve the variety of shooting visual angle or angle selection of camera subassembly 20, make the shooting more nimble, can satisfy user's shooting angle demand better.

Alternatively, in some embodiments, referring to fig. 4 to 6 and 8 to 10, when one of the electrical connection portion 111 and the electrical connection mating portion 21 includes the first structure 101, the other may have a non-circular ring structure and a non-circular arc structure, such as a pin structure, a stitch structure, a bump structure, or the like, but is not limited thereto.

So configured, only one of the electrical connection portion 111 and the electrical connection mating portion 21 needs to be provided to include the first structure 101, and the other need not include the first structure 101, and the structure is simple, and the electrical connection portion 111 and the electrical connection mating portion 21 can be electrically contacted when relatively rotated.

Optionally, in other embodiments, referring to fig. 13, fig. 13 is a schematic view illustrating a partial structure of a camera module 20 according to still other embodiments of the present application, which is connected to a mounting portion 11 of an apparatus body 10 when the camera module is in an operating state. One of the electrical connection portion 111 and the electrical connection mating portion 21 includes a first structure 101, the other includes a second structure 102, and the second structure 102 is a circular ring structure or a circular arc structure. When the camera assembly 20 is in the working state, the second structure 102 is in electrical contact with the first structure 101, and the second structure 102 is coaxially disposed with the first structure 101. It is understood that the structural form of the first structure 101 and the second structure 102 may be the same or different.

By this arrangement, the electric contact between the electric connection part 111 and the electric connection fitting part 21 can be achieved, and the relative rotation can be performed, so that the camera module 20 can be rotated relative to the mounting part 11 in the operating state.

In the above-described embodiment, the arrangement is described in which one of the electrical connection portion 111 and the electrical connection fitting portion 21 includes the first structure 101, and the first structure 101 is of a circular ring-shaped structure or a circular arc-shaped structure. However, in other embodiments, either one of the electrical connection portion 111 and the electrical connection mating portion 21 may not include the first structure 101. For example, the rotation axis of the camera module 20 may be penetrated by the electrical connection portion 111 and the electrical connection mating portion 21, and when the camera module 20 is in an operating state and rotates relative to the mounting portion 11, the electrical connection portion 111 and the electrical connection mating portion 21 may also relatively rotate and always contact. For another example, when the camera module 20 is in an operating state and rotates relative to the mounting portion 11, the electrical connection portion 111 and the electrical connection mating portion 21 may be connected and fixed in relative position, and the electrical connection portion 111 and the electrical connection mating portion 21 may rotate together with the camera module 20.

When the camera assembly 20 is in the working state, if it is disturbed by external force, such as being bumped, swung or shaken, the camera assembly 20 may be separated from the device body 10. Based on this, in order to improve the stability of the camera module 20 in the operating state, the present application proposes the following scheme.

Referring to fig. 14 to 21, fig. 14 is a schematic bottom view of a camera module 20 according to still other embodiments of the present application, fig. 15 is a schematic top view of a device body 10 according to still other embodiments of the present application, fig. 16 to 21 are schematic top views of the camera module 20 according to still other embodiments of the present application, fig. 14 is a process schematic where the camera module 20 is in an operating state and rotated 270 ° relative to a mounting portion 11 of the device body 10, and fig. 16 to 21 are schematic top views of the camera module 20 according to still other embodiments of the present application when the camera module 20 is connected to the device body 10 according to fig. 15.

In some embodiments, the mounting portion 11 further includes a first magnetically attractable portion 112 and the camera head assembly 20 further includes a second magnetically attractable portion 23. When the camera assembly 20 is in the working state, the second magnetic attraction portion 23 is magnetically attracted to the first magnetic attraction portion 112.

It will be appreciated that since the second magnetic attraction portion 23 and the first magnetic attraction portion 112 are capable of magnetically attracting, i.e., both are attracted by magnetic force, at least one of the second magnetic attraction portion 23 and the first magnetic attraction portion 112 includes a ferromagnetic material or an electromagnet, and the other should include a material capable of being attracted by a magnet, such as a magnet, a ferromagnetic material (e.g., iron, cobalt, nickel, and alloys and compounds thereof), an electromagnet, and the like, but is not limited thereto.

So set up, when camera subassembly 20 is in operating condition, through second magnetism portion 23 and the magnetic attraction of first magnetism portion 112 mutually, can improve the fastness that camera subassembly 20 is connected with installation department 11, and then stability and reliability when camera subassembly 20 is in operating condition are improved.

Optionally, in some embodiments, referring to fig. 15, the first magnetic portion 112 is disposed around the outer portion of the electrical connection portion 111, and the electrical connection portion 111 is located inside the first magnetic portion 112. That is, the first magnetic portion 112 is disposed around the outer periphery of the electrical connection portion 111, and the first magnetic portion 112 may completely surround the first magnetic portion 112 or may partially surround the first magnetic portion 112 to have a notch.

Similarly, referring to fig. 14, the second magnetic portion 23 is disposed around the outer portion of the electrical connection mating portion 21, and the electrical connection mating portion 21 is located inside the second magnetic portion 23. That is, the second magnetic portion 23 is disposed around the outer periphery of the electric connection fitting portion 21, and the second magnetic portion 23 may completely surround the electric connection fitting portion 21 or may partially surround the electric connection fitting portion 21 to have a notch.

When the camera module 20 is in the working state, the electric connection matching part 21 is in electric contact with the electric connection part 111, the first magnetic attraction part 112 is surrounded on the outer part of the electric connection part 111, and the second magnetic attraction part 23 is surrounded on the outer part of the electric connection matching part 21, compared with the case that the first magnetic attraction part 112 is only arranged on one side of the electric connection part 111, on one hand, the camera module 20 is not easy to deviate to one side under the action of external force, and the reliability of the electric contact between the electric connection matching part 21 and the electric connection part 111 is improved; on the other hand, when the camera module 20 rotates relative to the mounting portion 11, the first magnetic attraction portion 112 and the second magnetic attraction portion 23 can still be magnetically attracted, so that stability and reliability of the camera module 20 during rotation can be improved, for example, as shown in fig. 16 to 21.

Alternatively, referring to fig. 15, the first magnetic attraction portion 112 is a non-closed enclosure structure, that is, a circumferentially discontinuous enclosure structure, and has a notch or a break, and may be, for example, an arc structure, a non-closed frame structure, an enclosure structure formed by enclosing a plurality of components (this is shown in fig. 15 by way of example), or the like, but is not limited thereto. The surrounding structure, that is, the structure with an empty area on the inner side so as to be capable of surrounding the outside of other objects, can be in various regular or irregular shapes; the inner empty area of the non-closed surrounding structure is the non-closed area, and is relative to the closed surrounding structure with the inner empty area being the closed area. Similarly, referring to fig. 14, the second magnetic attraction portion 23 is a non-closed surrounding structure, that is, a discontinuous, non-complete annular structure, with a notch or a break, for example, but not limited to, an arc structure, a non-closed frame structure, a surrounding structure formed by surrounding a plurality of components (this is shown in fig. 14 by way of example), and the like.

So configured, since the electric connection mating portion 21 is in electrical contact with the electric connection portion 111 when the camera assembly 20 is in an operating state, if the first magnetic attraction portion 112 and the second magnetic attraction portion 23 are both in a closed surrounding structure, the formed magnetic field may interfere with the electric signal, so that the electric connection mating portion 21 and the electric connection portion 111 are in electrical contact for transmitting signals; by arranging the first magnetic attraction part 112 and the second magnetic attraction part 23 to be non-closed surrounding structures, the possibility that the magnetic field affects signal transmission between the camera module 20 and the equipment body 10 can be effectively reduced, and the reliability of signal communication between the camera module 20 and the equipment body 10 can be improved.

Of course, in other embodiments, the first magnetic attraction portion 112 may be a non-closed enclosure structure, and the second magnetic attraction portion 23 may be a closed enclosure structure. The closed enclosure structure, that is, the circumferentially continuous enclosure structure, that is, the fully enclosed structure may be, for example, an annular structure, a frame structure, or the like, but is not limited thereto. In other embodiments, the first magnetic attraction portion 112 may be a closed enclosure structure, and the second magnetic attraction portion 23 may be an unsealed enclosure structure.

In other embodiments, referring to fig. 22 and 23, fig. 22 is a schematic bottom view of a camera assembly 20 according to still other embodiments of the present application, and fig. 23 is a schematic top view of a device body 10 according to still other embodiments of the present application, where the first magnetic attraction portion 112 and the second magnetic attraction portion 23 are both enclosed and surrounded structures. Fig. 23 and 22 each exemplarily show a case where the first magnetic attraction portion 112 and the second magnetic attraction portion 23 are each of a ring-like structure. In this way, compared with the non-closed surrounding structure, when the camera assembly 20 is connected with the device body 10, the first magnetic attraction portion 112 and the second magnetic attraction portion 23 can have a larger contact area, so that the connection stability of the camera assembly 20 and the device body 10 can be improved.

Alternatively, referring to fig. 15, the first magnetic attraction portion 112 includes at least two first sub-magnetic attraction portions 1121, each of the first sub-magnetic attraction portions 1121 being arranged in order along the outer circumferential direction of the electrical connection portion 111. Each first sub-magnetic part 1121 forms an enclosure structure surrounding the outside of the electrical connection part 111, two adjacent first sub-magnetic parts 1121 may be connected or disconnected, and each first sub-magnetic part 1121 may be uniformly or unevenly arranged. The first sub-magnetic attraction portion 1121 may have various regular or irregular structures, for example, but not limited to, a sheet structure, a block structure, a plating structure, a coating structure, and the like. Any two adjacent first sub-magnetic attraction parts 1121 form a first magnetic attraction group, and the two first sub-magnetic attraction parts 1121 of at least one first magnetic attraction group are arranged at intervals to form a first vacant area 1120, so that the first sub-magnetic attraction parts 1121 form a non-closed surrounding structure. It should be understood that the first empty region 1120 refers to a region where the first sub-magnetic attraction part 1121 is not provided, but other objects may be provided, not particularly empty spaces.

Similarly, referring to fig. 14, the second magnetic attraction portion 23 includes at least two second sub-magnetic attraction portions 231, each of the second sub-magnetic attraction portions 231 being sequentially arranged along the outer circumferential direction of the electrical connection mating portion 21. Each second sub-magnetic attraction portion 231 forms an enclosure structure that is enclosed outside the electrical connection mating portion 21, two adjacent second sub-magnetic attraction portions 231 may be connected or not adjacent, and each second sub-magnetic attraction portion 231 may be uniformly or unevenly arranged. The second sub-magnetic attraction portion 231 may have various regular or irregular shapes, for example, but not limited to, a sheet-like structure, a block-like structure, a plating structure, a coating structure, and the like. The structure of the second sub-magnetic attraction portion 231 may be the same as or different from that of the first sub-magnetic attraction portion 1121.
