FIELD
The present disclosure relates to the field of electronic technology, and in particular to an electronic device.
BACKGROUND
With the development of technology, more and more electronic devices, such as smart phones, tablet computers, laptops and smart televisions and so on, appear in people's lives. There devices greatly facilitate people's lives.
Currently, contents may be displayed by using a projection in many situations. For example, a conference content pre-stored in an electronic device is projected in a conference, and activity rules and product information are projected in a large scale exhibition. In conventional technologies, a projection apparatus is integrated in a tablet computer to make it more convenient for a user to carry and use. In practice, if the height of projection needs to be adjusted, an additional things need to be put under the tablet computer to adjust the height of projection since the thickness of the body of the tablet computer is uniform.
Since the thickness of the body of the tablet computer in the conventional technologies is uniform and the height of the projection apparatus arranged on the tablet computer is constant, the projection height needs to be adjusted in other ways such as raising the tablet computer.
Further, there is no focusing button for projection in the tablet computer in the conventional technology. Therefore, the tablet computer is moved forward or backward when the focal length is required to be adjusted for the projector.
Besides, in the conventional technologies, the projection apparatus and the camera are two separate devices. In a conventional electronic device, a projection function of the projection apparatus and a camera function of the camera are simply added to obtain an integrated function.

The body of the electronic device is wedge-shaped. A rotatable support capable of supporting the body is arranged on a thicker side of the body, and a projection component is arranged on the first portion. In practice, the height of the electronic device may be adjusted by only rotating the support, thus the height of projection is adjusted. Therefore, the technical solutions according to the embodiments of the present disclosure solve the technical problem that the electronic device in the conventional technologies can not adjust the projection height by utilizing the structure design of the electronic device itself, so as to achieve a technical effect that the projection height is adjusted by utilizing the structure design of the electronic device itself.
FIGS. 1 and 2 are respectively an oblique view and a side view of an electronic device according to the embodiment of the present disclosure. The embodiment of present disclosure provides an electronic device, including: a first component 10 including a first portion 11 and a second portion 12 opposite to the first portion 11, where the thickness of the first component 10 is gradually decreased from the first portion 11 to the second portion 12; a display unit 20 arranged on a first surface 101 of the first component 10; and a projection component 30 arranged on the first portion 11.
In practice, in the case that the electronic device is a tablet laptop, the first component 10 is the main body of the tablet computer and the display unit 20 is the display screen of the tablet computer. The display unit 20 may be a ordinary LED display screen, a touch display screen, a flexible screen, or the like which is not limited in the present disclosure, as long as the display screen has a display function. The body of the tablet computer is wedge-shaped, that is, one side of the body is thinner while the other side is thicker. The first portion 11 corresponds to the thicker side, the second portion 12 corresponds to the thinner side, and the projection component 30 is arranged on an end lateral surface of the thicker side.
At least one function component is arranged in the first component 10 of the electronic device, and the at least one function component is arranged at a location closer to the first portion 11 to decrease the thickness of the first component 10 gradually from the first portion 11 to the second portion 12.
Since the body of the electronic device is wedge-shaped, in order to decrease the thickness of the second portion 12, the at least one function component arranged in the first component 10, for example, a component occupying a large space, such as a main board, a CPU, a camera module, a speaker, a voice card and a video card and so on, is arranged at the location closer to the first portion 11. In this way, the thickness of the first component 10 is decreased gradually from the first portion 11 to the second portion 12.
Further, the electronic device further includes a second component arranged on the first portion 11.

The support 82 is fixed to the connecting shaft 81, that is, a motion of the connecting shaft 81 may drive the support 82 to move. In order to keep the support 82 at the first relative location to support the first component 10 when the support 82 is moved to the first relative location with respect to the first component 10, the connecting shaft 81 may be a damping rotating shaft. In this case, the support 82 may stay at any location to support the first component 10. Of course, the above supporting process may also be implemented by manufacturing the inner surface of the support 82, via which the support 82 cooperates with connecting shaft 81 for rotating, with a damping material.

As shown in FIG. 6A, under the panel-mode, the support 82 is imbedded into the first groove arranged on the second surface 102 and forms an entire plane with the second surface 102. In this case, a user may handle the electronic device or place the electronic device on a plane as using a ordinary tablet computer. Both the first portion 11 and the second portion 12 of the first component 10 support the first component when the electronic device is placed on the plane.
A second mode is a standing mode. As shown in FIG. 6B, the user only rotates the support 82 out of the first groove if the user wants to switch the electronic device from the panel-mode to the standing mode. By rotating the connecting shaft 81, the support 82 is driven to rotate to a first relative location with an angel such as 50 degrees between the first component 10 and the support 82, and the first component 10 and the support 82 are kept staying at the first relative location for the damping function of the connecting shaft 81. In this case, the electronic device is in the standing mode and the first component 10 is supported by the support 82 and the first portion 11. Further, the user may further adjust the angle between the support 82 and the first component 10 as needed, so as to improve a user experience. Under the standing mode, the user may watch a video, browse webpages, or the like by using the electronic device.
A third type is a touch mode. As shown in FIG. 6C, the user may type on a virtual keyboard of the electronic device with two hands to improve the input efficiency if the user wants to edit a document or input words with the electronic device. In this case, the user may place the first portion 11 of the first component 10 at a location away from the user and place the second portion 12 at a location close to the user, and the first component 10 is supported by the support 82 and the second portion 12. Further, the electronic device may adjust a display direction of the display unit 20 based on the state which it is in, so that it is convenient for the user to input. Of course, when the electronic device is in the touch mode, the user may not be inputting, but may be playing games, such as playing a piano, by clicking the keyboard with two hands. And the electronic device may be in the input mode if only the user operates the electronic device with both two hands.
In the case that a projection mode is started under the touch mode, a current display content of the display unit 20 may be projected, and the projected content may be operated correspondingly when the display content is operated. For example, in the case that a projection function of a tablet computer is used in a conference, the support 82 of the tablet computer is rotated to an appropriate angle such as 60 degrees, so that the tablet computer is supported by both the support 82 and the second portion 12 and the display unit 20 is placed in a form of facing to the user. In this case, if the set angle, 60 degrees, make the height of the projection too high or too low, the height of the projection may be adjusted by changing the angle between the support 82 and the second surface 102, that is, a first distance is gradually reduced as the angle between the support 82 and the second surface 102 is gradually reduced; and the first distance is gradually increased as the angle between the support 82 and the second surface 102 is gradually increased.
The electronic device according to the embodiment further includes a focusing structure 60 arranged on a surface region located on the first sub-connecting portion of the first end portion 111 of the first portion 11 as shown in FIG. 6A. The focusing structure 60 may be arranged on a surface region on the same side with the first surface 101 on the first sub-connecting portion, on a surface region on the same side with the second surface 102 on the first sub-connecting portion, or on other regions, which is not limited herein. The focal length of a lens of the projection component 30 may be adjusted by operating the focusing structure 60. Still taking the projection function of the tablet computer used in the conference above, if the tablet computer is in the touch mode, the user may adjust the focal length of the projection lens by adjusting the focusing structure 60, to obtain a clearer projection content. The focusing structure may be a slide block gear, a rotating gear, or the like, which is not limited herein, as long as the component makes the lens moved forwards or backwards.
In the case that the projection function is used under the touch mode, the speaker in the conference may label on the display unit 20 at any moment and the labels are displayed on the projection in real time, so that the interaction between the speaker and participants is improved. For example, in order to enable the participants to understand a certain abstract concept more easily, the speaker may write a label or draw on the display screen to explain in detail when the concept is spoken about, and the above labels or diagrams may be displayed on the projection content at the same time, so that the experience of the user of the electronic device is further improved.
The body of the electronic device provided in the technical solutions according to the embodiments of the present disclosure is wedge-shaped, that is, one side of the body is thinner while the other side is thicker. A rotatable support capable of supporting the body is arranged on the thicker side of the body and a projection component is arranged on the thicker side of the body. In practice, the height of the electronic device may be adjusted by only rotating the support, so that the projection height is adjusted. It can be seen that, the technical solutions according to the embodiments of the present disclosure solve the technical problem that the electronic device in the conventional technologies can not adjust the projection height by utilizing the structure design of the electronic device itself, and achieve a technical effect that the electronic device adjusts the projection height by utilizing the structure design of the electronic device itself.

So that a space of the electronic device is reused effectively instead of designing a separate space for the projection component in the conventional technologies, hence the cost of product is reduced. Therefore, it is achieved a technical effect that the cost of product is reduced by effectively reusing the space, according to the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present disclosure
According to the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present disclosure, the weight of the side of the connecting shaft of the electronic device is increased because a cavity structure is arranged in the connecting shaft of the electronic device and the projection component is placed in the cavity. Hence it is achieved a technical effect that the center of gravity of the electronic device is moved lower and the support arranged on the connecting shaft can support the electronic device more steadily.
According to the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present disclosure, when the electronic device is in a touch mode, that is, when the electronic device is supported on a flat surface by both the support and the second portion of the electronic device, the display unit of the electronic device is placed upwardly to facilitate a user's operation. Moreover, a projection content may be operated by correspondingly operating a current display content of the display unit, for example, an important content is displayed in highlight. In this way, the experience of user is improved greatly.

Referring to FIG. 8, in a specific implementing process, the hole 105 may be a square hole, a circular hole, a diamond hole or a hole with other shapes, which are not listed one by one here. It is illustrated here by taking the square hole as an example. In the case that the angle between the support 82 and the first component 10 is 180 degrees when the support 82 is rotated to move relative to the first component 10, the user suspends the support 82 on a plane for example a wall surface via the hole 105, and the electronic device changes a display direction of the display unit 20 based on a current posture of the electronic device. For example, in the case that the support 82 supports the first component 10, the display unit 20 displays in a direction from the second portion 12 to the first portion 11; and in the case that the electronic device is suspended on the wall via the hole 105, the display unit 20 displays in a direction from the first portion 11 to the second portion 12.

A starting button 31 is also provided in the hole-corresponding-region, and a separating element is provided on the starting button 31. In the case that the support 82 overlaps with the second surface 102 and a pressure is applied to the starting button 31, the separating element is pushed to squeeze the retaining snap 2021, such that the retaining snap 2021 is separated from the retaining groove 121, and thus the support 82 is departed from the second surface 102.
In practice, a shape of the starting button 31 may be a strip shaped, circular, elliptical or other shapes. In addition, the starting button may be made of a plastic material, a metal material or other materials, which are not listed one by one here. In the embodiment of the disclosure, it is illustrated by taking an elliptical starting button made of the metal material as an example. Once the user presses down the starting button 31, the separating element provided on the starting button 31 squeezes the retaining snap 2021 for the external force applied by the user, such that the retaining snap 2021 is separated from the retaining groove 121, and thus the support 82 is departed from the second surface 102.

In the embodiment of the disclosure, the electronic device being a tablet computer is taken as an example, and the process of focusing is as follows. In the case that the projection is unclear and the adjustment of the focal length is required for the projection component 30, firstly, the slide block 51 is operated to move to left or right, the slide block 51 drives the pushing structure 52 connected to the slide block 51 to move to left or right.

The slide block 51, when being operated to move, drives the projection lens 301 to zoom in or out via the pushing structure 52, and the focal length of the projection lens 301 is adjusted.
Referring to FIG. 17, FIG. 17 is another local schematic structural diagram of the transmission structure of the electronic device according to an embodiment of the disclosure.
In the embodiment of the disclosure, the electronic device being a tablet computer is taken as an example, and the process of focusing is as follows.
In the case that the projection is unclear and the adjustment of the focal length is required for the projection component 30, firstly, the slide block 51 is operated to move to left or right, the slide block 51 drives the pushing structure 52 connected to the slide block 51 to move to left or right. Since the pushing structure 52 is fixed in the fixed hole 526, a thrust toward right or left generated by the movement toward right or left of the pushing structure 52 is transmitted to the projection lens 301 via the fixed hole 526, the projection lens 301 is driven to zoom in or out, and finally the focal length of the projection lens is adjusted.
To enhance the user experience in order that the desired focal length is adjusted rapidly by the user, at least one focal length value in the range of variable focal lengths for the projection lens 301 is provided on the upper edge or the lower edge of the elongated hole 1021 in the embodiment of the disclosure. In practice, the maximum and minimum of the variable focal lengths may be marked on the upper edge of the elongated hole 1021 of the table computer; alternatively, the maximum, minimum and median of the variable focal lengths may be marked on the upper edge of the elongated hole 1021 of the table computer. Certainly, it may be specifically arranged as required actually for those skilled in the art, and not recited one by one herein.
In the embodiment of the disclosure, the electronic device further includes a second component 80 arranged on the first portion 11, and the second component 80 includes a connecting shaft 81 and a support 82.
The support 82 is movable relative to the first component 10 by means of the connecting shaft 81, the support 82 is configured to support the first component 10 when the support 82 is moved to a first location relative to the first component 10.
In practice, the connecting shaft 81 may be one shaft with constant diameter as shown in FIG. 18A, or may be consisted of multiple shafts with different diameters as shown in FIG. 18B. In the case that the connecting shaft 81 is one shaft with constant diameter, the manufacturing process is simple and the cost is low relatively. In the case that the connecting shaft 81 is consisted of multiple shafts with different diameters, since there are multiple shafts with different diameters, the shaft with smaller diameter in the multiple shafts with different diameters is connected to or embedded into the corresponding connection portion of the first component 10 of the table computer during the rotation, and therefore the connecting shaft 81 is not easily to fall off during the rotation. Certainly, in practice, it may be arranged as required by those skilled in the art, and not limited specifically in the disclosure.
In practice, at least one surface of the support 82 may be a plane, or may be a curved surface, as shown in FIG. 19. In the case that at least one surface of the support 82 is a curved surface, once the support 82 is placed on a plane such as a table top, there are at least two surfaces for the support 82 contacted with the table top. In this case, the force supporting the first component 10 from the support 82 is greater. In the case that at least one surface of the support 82 is a plane, once the support 82 is placed on a plane such as a table top, there is only one surface for the support 82 contacted with the table top. In this case, the force supporting the first component 10 from the support 82 is less, and the electronic device may slid due to the self gravity or an external thrust in use.
In the embodiment of the disclosure, for the convenience of the user, the inclination of the screen can be adjusted as required when the user views the displayed content on the display unit 20 of the electronic device, that is to say, the angle between the support 82 and the first component 10 may be changed in a certain range, such as from 0 degrees to 90 degrees. Moreover, in order that the user can fold the support 82 when a support is not needed for ease of portability, the support 82 is rotatable relative to the first component 10, and the support 82 relative to the first component 10 is rotated in a certain angle range, such as from 0 degrees to 90 degrees, or from 0 degrees to 180 degrees, which may be arranged as required by those skilled in the art, and not limited specifically in the disclosure.

In this case, when the focal length is required to be adjusted for the projection lens, only the adjustment structure is operated to move, the transmission structure connected to the adjustment structure is driven to move, and thus the movement of the transmission structure drives the projection lens to zoom in or out, since the transmission structure is connected to the projection lens. Therefore, the technique problem of the electronic device in the conventional technology that it is difficult to adjust the focal length of projection by utilizing the structure design of the electronic device itself is solved, a focusing button is provided in the internal space of the electronic device, and thus the focal length of projection is adjusted by utilizing the structure design of the electronic device itself.

In this case, the center of gravity for the electronic device is lower when the first component is supported by the support, and thus the electronic device is supported more steadily.
In the technical solution according to the embodiment of the disclosure, at least one focal length value in the range of variable focal lengths for the projection lens is provided on the upper edge or the lower edge of the elongated hole. In this case, the desired focal length can be adjusted clearly by the user in the focusing operation, and thus the user experience is enhanced.
