Electronic device dustproof structure and electronic device

The present invention is an electronic device dustproof structure and an electronic device having the dustproof structure, and particularly, an electronic device dustproof structure that prevents dust from entering the electronic device with heat dissipation and an electronic device having the dustproof structure.

A typical notebook computer has a fan to ensure that its internal components (such as a central processing unit, a display card, etc.) are not affected by the operating temperature. However, when the cooling air is extracted from the outside, the dust in the working environment is also brought into the computer, which causes the normal function of the component to be affected, and even damages the service life of the computer. However, in the notebook computers currently on the market, there is no device that is sufficient to prevent dust from entering the computer interior due to heat dissipation.

Therefore, for the purpose of waterproof and dustproof effect, it is necessary to provide a dustproof structure and an electronic device having the dustproof structure to protect the internal components of the electronic device and avoid affecting the wafer performance and the service life of the internal components of the electronic device.

The main purpose of this creation is to provide an electronic device A dustproof structure has a function of preventing dust from entering the inside of the electronic device with heat dissipation.

Another object of the present invention is to provide an electronic device having the above-described dustproof structure, which has a function of preventing dust from entering the inside of the electronic device with heat dissipation.

In order to achieve the above object, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the dustproof structure of the electronic device of the present invention is used for an electronic device, and the electronic device includes an upper casing, a lower casing and a hinge, and the hinge is respectively connected to the upper casing and the lower casing. The connection is for opening or closing the upper casing and the lower casing, and the lower casing comprises a vent structure. The dustproof structure of the electronic device includes a cover plate and an elastic member. The cover panel includes a first end and a second end, wherein the first end is detachably coupled to the hinge. The elastic element is coupled to the second end of the cover. When the upper casing and the lower casing are closed, the first end of the cover plate is connected with the hinge, so that the cover plate shields the vent structure, and when the upper casing and the lower casing are opened, the opening between the upper casing and the lower casing is opened When the angle exceeds the preset angle, the first end of the cover plate is separated from the hinge, and the cover member is moved by the action of the elastic member to open the vent structure.

Because the creation of this creation is novel, it can provide industrial use, and it has improved efficiency, so it applies for a new patent according to law.

2 is a schematic diagram of an electronic device according to an embodiment of the present invention when closed.

FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram of an electronic device according to an embodiment of the present invention when it is turned on.

The above and other objects, features and advantages of the present invention will become more apparent and understood.

Hereinafter, please refer to FIG. 1 to FIG. 3 together, which is an electronic device according to an embodiment of the present invention. According to an embodiment of the present invention, the electronic device M includes an upper casing 100, a lower casing 200, a hinge 300, and a dustproof structure 400. The lower casing 200 includes a vent structure 210; the hinge 300 is coupled to the upper casing 100 and the lower casing 200, respectively, for opening or closing the upper casing 100 and the lower casing 200.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, the electronic device M is, for example, a notebook computer, the upper casing 100 may include a display screen, and the lower casing 200 may include a keyboard or the like. However, it should be noted that the electronic device M is not limited to a notebook computer, and may be any device having a similar structure. It should be noted that the application of the hinge 300 to open or close the upper housing 100 and the lower housing 200 should be familiar to those of ordinary skill in the art and will not be described again in the specification.

According to one embodiment of the present invention, the dustproof structure 400 includes a cover 410 and an elastic member 420. The cover 410 includes a first end 411 and a second end 412, wherein the first end 411 is detachably coupled to the hinge 300; and the elastic member 420 is coupled to the second end 412 of the cover 410.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, the hinge 300 includes a snap hook 310. The cover 410 includes a snap strip 413. The snap strip 413 is disposed on the first end 411 of the cover 410, and the snap hook 310 is used to engage the card. The strip 413 can connect the hinge 300 to the first end 411 of the cover 410. Similarly, the second end 412 of the cover 410 can also be coupled to the resilient member 420 by a hook structure. However, it should be noted that the hinge 300 and the cover 410 The manner of connection and the manner in which the cover 410 is connected to the elastic member 420 are not limited thereto.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, the vent structure 210 and the cover 410 are both arranged in a fence shape. The vent structure 210 includes a plurality of vents through which air can flow in or out to remove heat from the internal heating elements. The cover 410 includes an opening structure 414. When the opening structure 414 coincides with the vent structure 210, the vent structure 210 is open to allow airflow to flow in or out. According to an embodiment of the present invention, the cover 410 is made of plastic material or metal material, but the creation is not limited thereto.

Please refer to FIG. 2 and FIG. 3 next. As shown in FIG. 2, according to an embodiment of the present invention, when the upper casing 100 and the lower casing 200 are closed, the engaging strips 413 of the cover plate 410 are engaged with the engaging hooks 310 of the hinge 300, and the cover plate is covered at this time. The opening structure 414 of the 410 is just offset from the vent structure 210 of the lower casing 200, so that the vent structure 210 is shielded to have a dustproof effect.

As shown in FIG. 3, according to an embodiment of the present invention, when the upper casing 100 and the lower casing 200 are opened such that the opening angle between the upper casing 100 and the lower casing 200 exceeds a predetermined angle, the cover 410 is opened. The snap strip 413 is separated from the snap hook 310 of the hinge 300. At this time, the cover plate 410 is moved in the direction shown in the figure by the action of the elastic member 420, so that the opening structure 414 coincides with the vent structure 210. The vent structure 210 is opened, at which point the air flow can flow in or out of the vent to remove heat from the internal heating elements. According to an embodiment of the present invention, the preset angle is substantially about 30 degrees to 45 degrees, but the creation is not limited thereto.

It should be noted that the cover 410 does not necessarily need to be designed as a fence-like opening structure 414. For example, it can also be designed as a louver structure. When the cover 410 is connected to the hinge 300, the cover 410 covers The vent structure 210 is shielded. When the cover 410 is separated from the hinge 300, the louver structure is opened to open the vent structure 210. According to an embodiment of the present invention, the cover 410 can also be controlled according to the state of use of the electronic device. For example, when the electronic device enters a sleep state, the control cover 410 blocks the vent structure 210; and when the electronic device returns from the sleep state, the control cover 410 opens the vent structure 210.

In summary, this creation, regardless of its purpose, means and efficacy, is showing its characteristics that are different from the well-known techniques. You are kindly requested to review the examination and express the patent as soon as possible. It is to be noted that the various embodiments described above are merely illustrative for ease of explanation, and the scope of the claims is intended to be limited by the scope of the claims.
