Description

Electronic device

The present invention relates to an electronic device; in particular, the present invention relates to an electronic device that uses a special spring piece structure to engage an outer frame.

Most of the design of the general display focuses on the design of the front side narrowing and the side thinning, as well as the appearance of the front and side. The design of the rear side that was previously not valued is gradually becoming more and more beautiful.

The front frame of the display is mainly designed as a side lock screw (snap hook) or a back lock screw. In order to beautify the lock hole, it may be covered with a decorative piece. The design of the rear case may be locked by a plastic rear case and screwed directly, or directly The back panel is exposed as an appearance. Basically, the fixing method will have an impact on the appearance and the appearance, reliability and reworkability. If you want to avoid the screw exposure, the design of the hook or the adhesive should also take into account the size and reliability, even if it is grouped up. It is strong enough to be sticky, and the heavy work that will be encountered during mass production is also a major factor affecting product design.

The design of the hook-and-loop frame (front frame or plastic frame) is as long as the gap is properly designed, but the card can be quite stable, but there may be some problems in heavy work. For example, the tightness of the card is usually equivalent to being difficult to remove, and the hook of the same frame must be loosened and disassembled at the same time, and if it is released separately, it will be stuck back. Another problem is the structure of the hook, which has been opened. The process is opened by external force, and there may be permanent deformation after deformation. Therefore, the workability is not good, and the heavy work may be damaged and cannot be reused. Furthermore, many fixing methods in the backlight module need to be fixed by an individual structure, such as an optical film, a diffusion plate, etc., but due to the influence of thinning and narrowing, it is restricted to accommodate a structure that is too complicated.

The present invention provides an electronic device that uses a special elastic structure to engage the outer frame and has a better appearance.

The present invention provides an electronic device that uses a special shrapnel structure to engage the outer frame, and can be easily assembled and disassembled to greatly improve the rework efficiency and reduce the maintenance cost.
