Description

Shell assembly and electronic equipment

Technical Field

The present disclosure relates to electronic devices, and particularly to a housing assembly and an electronic device.

Background

While smart devices are continually evolving and updating, traditional electronic devices still need to exist to meet some population uses. For example, a keyboard machine is a common traditional electronic device and is oriented to the elderly. Conventional electronic devices typically incorporate an electrical light fixture to meet lighting requirements.

As shown in fig. 1, an embodiment of the present application proposes an electronic device 10. The electronic device 10 may be a keypad handset. The electronic device 10 includes a housing assembly 100. Referring to fig. 2, the housing assembly 100 includes:

A side case 110, the side case 110 having an inner side surface 112 in a thickness direction thereof, and a sliding hole 113 formed therethrough in the thickness direction of the side case 110, the sliding hole 113 extending in a longitudinal direction of the side case 110;

The toggle key 120 is slidably engaged with the sliding hole 113, and is configured to be slidable along the length direction, and is used for toggling the micro switch 200 accommodated in the housing assembly 100. As shown in fig. 3 and 4, the toggle key 120 has a limiting surface 1261, and the limiting surface 1261 has an orthographic projection on the inner side surface 112; the stopper surface 1261 and the inner side surface 112 have a gap in the thickness direction.

In the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, the toggle key 120 is slidably matched with the sliding hole 113, and is slidable along the length direction of the side housing 110, so as to toggle the micro switch 200 accommodated in the housing assembly 100, thereby switching the open/close state of the micro switch 200; the limiting surface 1261 of the toggle key 120 is arranged facing the inner side surface 112 and has an orthographic projection on the inner side surface 112, and the limiting surface 1261 and the inner side surface 112 have a gap in the thickness direction; therefore, the inner side surface 112 can limit the toggle key 120, so as to ensure that the toggle key 120 does not fall off from the side housing 110, and meanwhile, when sliding, because a gap exists between the limiting surface 1261 and the inner side surface 112 in the thickness direction, the friction force between the toggle key 120 and the side housing 110 becomes smaller, so that the toggle key 120 can slide conveniently.

It should be noted that, in a normal use state, the limiting surface 1261 and the inner side surface 112 keep a certain gap, so that when the micro switch 200 is pushed, the friction force is small, and thus the push is convenient for a user. In some abnormal conditions, such as when the key 120 is subjected to a large external load during transportation, because the limiting surface 1261 of the key 120 has a front projection on the inner side surface 112, even if the key 120 has a tendency to slide out of the side housing 110, when the limiting surface 1261 of the key 120 contacts the inner side surface 112, the key 120 is limited by the side housing 110, and is difficult to fall off from the side housing 110. Therefore, it should be understood that in the technical solution provided in the embodiment of the present application, the side housing 110 and the toggle key 120 should be in a matching state under a normal use state.

The pushing body 121 has a sliding mating surface 1211 located in the thickness direction, in sliding contact with the outer side surface 111. In some embodiments, in order to maintain the aesthetic sense, the outer side of the side case 110 is formed with a sliding groove into which the pushing body 121 may be inserted, and the bottom of the sliding groove may be understood as the outer side 111. In some embodiments, the outer wall surface of the side housing 110 may be understood as the outer side surface 111.
