Abstract

The present disclosure provides an electronic device. The electronic device includes a fixing structure, a display module, a cover glass, a first adhesive, and a second adhesive. The fixing structure includes a receiving portion and a fixing portion around the receiving portion. The display module is received in the receiving portion. The cover glass is located above the fixing portion and the display module. The first adhesive is located between the fixing portion and the cover glass to adhere the fixing portion with the cover glass. A groove is defined in the first adhesive. A hole is defined in the fixing portion corresponding to the groove. The second adhesive is injected in the groove via the hole to adhere the fixing portion with the cover glass.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. An electronic device, comprising:
a fixing structure, the fixing structure comprising a receiving portion and a fixing portion attached to a periphery of the receiving portion and surrounding the receiving portion;
a display module positioned in the receiving portion;
a cover glass located above the fixing portion and the display module;
a first adhesive located between the fixing portion and the cover glass to adhere the fixing portion with the cover glass, wherein a groove is defined in the first adhesive, a hole is defined in the fixing portion, the hole air communicating with the groove; and
a second adhesive positioned in the groove to adhere the fixing portion with the cover glass.

2. The electronic device of claim 1 , further comprising a touch module, wherein the touch module is located between the display module and the cover glass.

3. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the receiving portion comprises a bottom plate and four side walls perpendicularly extending from the bottom plate, the bottom plate and the four side walls form a receiving area to receive the display module.

4. The electronic device of claim 3 , wherein the fixing portion extends laterally from ends of the side walls to be parallel with the bottom plate and positioned away from the receiving portion.

5. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein a cross-sectional area of the hole in a plane parallel to the cover glass is less than a cross-sectional area of the corresponding groove connected to the hole in a plane parallel to the cover glass.

6. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the hole is circular.

7. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the second adhesive is a structural adhesive.

8. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the display module comprises a display panel and a backlight.

9. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the fixing structure is made of metal.

10. An electronic device, comprising:
a cover glass;
a fixing structure located below the cover glass comprising:
a receiving portion;
a fixing portion attached to a periphery of the receiving portion and surrounding the receiving portion; and
a supporting portion extended from the fixing portion and abutted on the cover glass, wherein a groove is defined in the supporting portion, a hole is defined in the fixing portion, the hole air communicating with the groove;
a display module received in the receiving portion; and
an adhesive positioned in the groove to adhere the fixing portion with the cover glass.

11. The electronic device of claim 10 , further comprising a touch module, wherein the touch module is located between the display module and the cover glass.

12. The electronic device of claim 10 , wherein the receiving portion comprises a bottom plate and four side walls perpendicularly extending from the bottom plate, the bottom plate and the four side walls form a receiving area to receive the display module.

13. The electronic device of claim 12 , wherein the fixing portion extends from ends of the side walls to be parallel with the bottom plate and positioned away from the receiving portion.

14. The electronic device of claim 13 , wherein the supporting portion extends from the fixing portion to couple to the cover glass and to be parallel with the side walls.

15. The electronic device of claim 10 , wherein a cross-sectional area in a plane parallel to the cover glass is less than a cross-sectional area of the corresponding groove connected to the hole in a plane parallel to the cover glass.

16. The electronic device of claim 10 , wherein the hole is circular.

17. The electronic device of claim 10 , wherein the adhesive is a structural adhesive.

18. The electronic device of claim 10 , wherein the display module comprises a display panel and a backlight.

19. The electronic device of claim 10 , wherein the fixing structure is made of metal.
