Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The main body includes a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface. The accommodating groove is located on the first surface, and the battery compartment is located on the second surface. The circuit board is adjacent to the battery compartment. A flexible circuit board is disposed on the display screen module. A hole is disposed in a groove bottom wall of the accommodating groove. The hole penetrates one end, at which the battery compartment is disposed, of the second surface. The battery is accommodated in the battery compartment. The enclosure covers the main body to enclose the battery compartment. The display screen module is accommodated in the accommodating groove. The flexible circuit board passes through the hole, winds from a side of the battery compartment to a surface, facing the enclosure, of the battery, and extends along the surface until connected to the circuit board.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. An electronic apparatus comprising: a main body comprising: a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface; an accommodating groove located on the first surface; a battery compartment located on the second surface; and a circuit board adjacent to the battery compartment; a hole disposed on a side of a groove bottom wall of the accommodating groove and wherein the hole penetrates one end, at which the battery compartment is disposed, of the second surface; a display screen module; a battery in the battery compartment; and an enclosure covering the main body to enclose the battery compartment; a flexible circuit board disposed on the display screen module; wherein the display screen module is supported in the accommodating groove; and the flexible circuit board passes through the hole, winds from a side of the battery compartment to a surface, facing the enclosure, of the battery, and extends along the surface and connects to the circuit board, and wherein a surface, facing the battery, of the extension segment is fixed to the battery by using double-sided tape. 2. The electronic apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the flexible circuit board comprises a connection segment; a bent segment; and an extension segment, wherein the bent segment connects the connection segment and the extension segment, the connection segment is connected to the display screen module, and the extension segment is connected to the circuit board. 3. The electronic apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein a buffer pad is disposed on a surface, facing the battery, of the enclosure; and the buffer pad holds the flexible circuit board and the battery. 4. The electronic apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the accommodating groove comprises the groove bottom wall; the hole is disposed at an edge of the groove bottom wall; the electronic apparatus further comprises a loudspeaker and a loudspeaker support; and wherein the loudspeaker support is installed on the main body and is clamped between an edge of the hole and the enclosure. 5. The electronic apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein buffer grooves are disposed on the connection segment; the buffer grooves are located on two sides of a joint between the connection segment and the bent segment; and the buffer grooves extend into the connection segment. 6. The electronic apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein the display screen module comprises a glass substrate; a first part of a surface, far from the bent segment of the flexible circuit board is attached to a surface of the glass substrate; a second part of the surface, far from the bent segment of the flexible circuit board extends out of the glass substrate and forms an angle with the glass substrate; and glue is disposed in the angle. 7. The electronic apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein a first positioning line is disposed on a surface of the flexible circuit board where the extension segment faces back to the battery compartment; and the first positioning line is configured to determine a plug-in position of the flexible circuit board in respect to the circuit board. 8. The electronic apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein positioning notches are disposed on two sides of the extension segment. 9. The electronic apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein a second positioning line is disposed on a surface of the flexible circuit board where the bent segment and the extension segment are joined; and the second positioning line is configured to determine a position of the bent segment in respect to the hole. 10. The electronic apparatus according to claim 6 , wherein a connecting piece is disposed at one end, far from the bent segment, of the extension segment; and the connecting piece is configured to electrically connect the circuit board.
