DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS

[0050] The following describes implementations of this application with reference to the accompanying drawings in the implementations of this application.

[0051] Referring to FIG. 1, an implementation of this application provides a mobile terminal 100. The mobile terminal 100 may be any device with communication and storage functions, for example, a network-enabled smart device such as a tablet computer, a mobile phone, an e-reader, a remote control, a personal computer (Personal Computer, PC), a notebook computer, an in-vehicle device, a network television, or a wearable device.

[0052] Referring to FIG. 1 to FIG. 3, the mobile terminal 100 includes an enclosure 200. The enclosure 200 includes a substrate 1 and a composite film layer 2 coated onto the substrate 1, and the composite film layer 2 includes a plurality of film layers. A thickness of the composite film layer 2 gradually decreases or increases along a first direction X, and a difference between film thicknesses of any two regions arranged along the first direction X on the composite film layer 2 is less than or equal to 350 nanometers (nm), so that the enclosure 200 presents a gradient color of a wavelength ranging from 400 nanometers to 760 nanometers. The enclosure 200 may be a rear cover of the mobile terminal 100. The enclosure 200 may further include a middle frame of the mobile terminal 100.

[0053] In this implementation, because the thickness of the composite film layer 2 of the enclosure 200 gradually decreases or increases along the first direction X, the enclosure 200 can present the gradient color, thereby enriching and diversifying an appearance tone of the enclosure 200. In addition, because the difference between the film thicknesses of any two regions arranged along the first direction X on the composite film layer 2 is less than or equal to 350 nanometers, the enclosure 200 can present a color of a wavelength ranging from 400 nanometers to 760 nanometers, that is, the enclosure 200 can present rainbow colors such as red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and purple. Further, the presented rainbow colors are gradient, and therefore the appearance tone of the enclosure 200 has more sensory appeal and can meet a color experience requirement of a customer.

[0054] It can be understood that on the composite film layer 2, a multi-layer nano-film optical interference principle is used to display a plurality of colors. In this application, the direction X in the figure is an example of the first direction in this application, and does not constitute any limitation on the first direction. In another implementation, the first direction may alternatively be another direction, for example, a direction opposite to the direction X. Gradual increase or decrease in this application includes but is not limited to gradual increase or decrease along a curve.

[0055] The thickness of the composite film layer 2 is greater than or equal to 50 nanometers but less than or equal to 400 nanometers. The thickness of the composite film layer 2 in the first direction X changes along a flat curve, so that an appearance change of the enclosure 200 is more natural and slower. The difference between the film thicknesses of the any two regions is a difference between film thicknesses at center points of the any two regions.

[0056] A wavelength of the red color ranges from 770 nanometers to 622 nanometers. A wavelength of the orange color ranges from 622 nanometers to 597 nanometers. A wavelength of the yellow color ranges from 597 nanometers to 577 nanometers. A wavelength of the green color ranges from 577 nanometers to 492 nanometers. A wavelength of the cyan (indigo) color ranges from 492 nanometers to 480 nanometers. A wavelength of the blue color ranges from 480 nanometers to 455 nanometers. A wavelength of the purple color ranges from 455 nanometers to 350 nanometers.

[0057] In an implementation, the thickness of the composite film layer 2 gradually decreases or increases along a second direction Y, and the second direction Y intersects with the first direction X. In other words, the thickness of the composite film layer 2 gradually decreases or increases along a plurality of directions at the same time. Therefore, the enclosure 200 can present a more flexible gradient color. In another implementation, the thickness of the composite film layer 2 may alternatively gradually decrease or increase along a direction other than the first direction X and the second direction Y.

[0058] An angle between the first direction X and the second direction Y is less than or equal to 90, and change trends of the thicknesses of the composite film layer 2 in the first direction X and the second direction Y are the same. That the change trends are the same means that both the thicknesses gradually increase or gradually decrease. When the substrate 1 is approximately rectangular, the second direction Y is perpendicular to the first direction X, the first direction X is a long side direction of the substrate 1, and the second direction Y is a short side direction of the substrate 1.

[0059] In this application, the direction Y in the figure is an example of the second direction in this application, and does not constitute any limitation on the second direction. In another implementation, the second direction may alternatively be another direction, for example, a direction opposite to the direction Y.

[0060] In an implementation, referring to FIG. 4 and FIG. 5, the composite film layer 2 includes first film layers (211/221) and second film layers (212/222) that are disposed in stacks, a refractive index of a coating material used for the first film layer (211/221) is different from a refractive index of a coating material used for the second film layer (212/222), and change trends of thicknesses of the first film layer (211/221) and the second film layer (212/222) in a same direction are the same. In other words, the thicknesses of both the first film layer (211/221) and the second film layer (212/222) in the same direction gradually increase or gradually decrease.

[0061] A gradual increase or decrease degree of the thicknesses of both the first film layer (211/221) and the second film layer (212/222) in the same direction are roughly the same.

[0062] The coating material used for the first film layer (211/221) and the coating material used for the second film layer (212/222) may be a high-refractive-index coating material and a low-refractive-index coating material, so that a coating system formed by the two materials has better coating effects on a surface of the substrate 1, for example, reflecting light with a relatively long wavelength while keeping the composite film layer 2 thin. Therefore, the enclosure 200 meets a higher experience requirement (such as lighter and thinner, brighter and more colorful).

[0063] There are a plurality of first film layers (211/221), and there are a plurality of second film layers (212/222). The plurality of the first film layers (211/221) and the plurality of the second film layers (212/222) are alternately stacked one by one.

[0064] In an implementation, as shown in FIG. 4, the first film layer 211 is made of a titanium oxide material, the second film layer 212 is made of a silicon oxide material, the composite film layer 2 is located on an inner surface 11 of the substrate 1, and the inner surface 11 faces an inside of the mobile terminal 100. In this implementation, because the composite film layer 2 is located on the inner surface 11 of the substrate 1, an outer surface 12 opposite to the inner surface 11 of the substrate 1 is highly flat, so that a user feels good when holding the mobile terminal 100 in hand.

[0065] A film layer, of the composite film layer 2, that is closest to the substrate 1 is the first film layer 211. The composite film layer 2 includes two first film layers 211 and two second film layers 212. The two first film layers 211 and the two second film layers 212 are alternately stacked one by one. Certainly, in another implementation, quantities of the first film layers 211 and the second film layers 212 may be another value.

[0066] In an implementation, as shown in FIG. 5, the first film layer 221 is made of a silicon nitride material, the second film layer 222 is made of a silicon oxide material, the composite film layer 2 is located on an outer surface 12 of the substrate 1, and the outer surface 12 faces an outside of the mobile terminal 100. In this implementation, because the first film layer 221 is made of the silicon nitride material, abrasion resistance of the first film layer 221 is relatively high, and abrasion resistance of the composite film layer 2 is relatively high. Therefore, the composite film layer 2 can be disposed on the outer surface 12 of the substrate 1 and has a relatively long life span.

[0067] A film layer, of the composite film layer 2, that is closest to the substrate 1 is the first film layer 221. The composite film layer 2 includes four first film layers 221 and three second film layers 222. The four first film layers 221 and the three second film layers 222 are alternately stacked one by one. Certainly, in another implementation, quantities of the first film layers 221 and the second film layers 222 may be another value.

[0068] Certainly, in another implementation, other high-refractive-index target material and low-refractive-index target material may be alternatively used to implement coating effects. For example, the high-refractive-index target material may be titanium oxide (TiO.sub.2), silicon nitride (Si.sub.3N.sub.4), zirconia, zinc oxide, or the like. The low-refractive-index target material may be silicon oxide (SiO.sub.2), silicon fluoride, or the like.

[0069] In an implementation, the composite film layer 2 includes three to 10 film layers.

[0070] In an implementation, as shown in FIG. 2, the composite film layer 2 includes a first region 23, a second region 24, and a third region 25 that are of a same area, the first region 23, the second region 24, and the third region 25 are sequentially arranged at equal intervals in the first direction X, a difference between an average film thickness of the first region 23 and an average film thickness of the second region 24 is a first value, a difference between the average film thickness of the second region 24 and an average film thickness of the third region 25 is a second value, and a ratio of the first value to the second value is within a range of 0.5 to 2.0.

[0071] In this implementation, the first region 23, the second region 24, and the third region 25 are sequentially arranged in the first direction X, and therefore the first region 23, the second region 24, and the third region 25 can present the gradient color. The ratio of the first value to the second value is within the range of 0.5 to 2.0, that is, the first value is close to or the same as the second value, and the first region 23, the second region 24, and the third region 25 have a same area. Therefore, the equally spaced first region 23, the second region 24, and the third region 25 can present a gradient color of adjacent colors, and each adjacent color has a relatively large presentation area, that is, each adjacent color can be relatively fully presented on the enclosure 200. This can avoid sensory discomfort caused by a sudden color change in adjacent regions when a presentation area of a color is too small, thereby improving an appearance texture of the enclosure 200 and improving user experience.

[0072] It can be understood that the average film thickness is an average value of film thicknesses of points (which include at least five points used as sample points) of a corresponding region. Therefore, the average film thickness of the region can basically reflect a color of the corresponding region. In another implementation, the first region 23, the second region 24, and the third region 25 may be alternatively arranged along the second direction Y or another direction.

[0073] When the ratio of the first value to the second value is within a range of 0.8 to 1.2, the color of the enclosure changes more slowly, and user experience is better.

[0074] Certainly, in another implementation, the enclosure 200 may alternatively present a color with a relatively large transition fluctuation, so that appearance of the enclosure 200 has strong visual impact.

[0075] In an implementation, the substrate 1 is made of one or more of a glass material, polycarbonate (Polycarbonate, PC), polyethylene terephthalate (polyethylene terephthalate, PET), metal, and a ceramic material.

[0076] In an implementation, the gradient color includes adjacent colors: purple, blue, and cyan. A wavelength of the cyan color ranges from 492 nanometers to 480 nanometers. A wavelength of the blue color ranges from 480 nanometers to 455 nanometers. A wavelength of the purple color ranges from 455 nanometers to 350 nanometers.

[0077] Referring to FIG. 6 to FIG. 8, an implementation of this application further provides a sputter coating apparatus 300. The sputter coating apparatus 300 may be configured to manufacture the enclosure 200 according to any one of the foregoing implementations. The sputter coating apparatus 300 includes a coating chamber 3, a base 4, a plurality of target materials (51/52), and a plurality of baffle plates 6. The base 4 is disposed inside the coating chamber 3. A bearing surface 41 configured to fasten a substrate 1 is provided on an outside of the base 4, and the bearing surface 41 is disposed opposite to and spaced from an inner wall 31 of the coating chamber 3, so that a coating space 30 is formed between the bearing surface 41 and the inner wall 31. The plurality of target materials (51/52) are accommodated in the coating space 30 and fastened to the inner wall 31 at intervals. The plurality of baffle plates 6 are accommodated in the coating space 30 and disposed facing the plurality of target materials (51/52) in a one-to-one correspondence. The plurality of baffle plates 6 also face the bearing surface 41.

[0078] Each of the baffle plates 6 includes at least one block unit 60. The block unit 60 includes at least two bar-shaped flaps 61 arranged in a third direction X, the at least two bar-shaped flaps 61 extend along a fourth direction Y perpendicular to the third direction X, and lengths of the at least two bar-shaped flaps 61 in the fourth direction Y gradually increase or decrease along the third direction X, to unevenly block the plurality of target materials (51/52), so that the composite film layer 2 whose thickness gradually decreases or increases is formed on the substrate 1.

[0079] As shown by a dashed-line arrow in FIG. 8, the sputter coating apparatus 300 hits surfaces of the plurality of target materials (51/52) by using charged particles in a vacuum, so that target material atoms on the surfaces of the plurality of target materials (51/52) escape from original crystal lattices, and then move across the baffle plate 6 to the surface of the substrate 1 to form the composite film layer 2. A coating principle of the sputter coating apparatus 300 is one of NCVM (Non-Conductive Vacuum Metallization, non-conductive vacuum metallization) coating technologies.

[0080] In this implementation, the baffle plates 6 exactly face the plurality of target materials (51/52) to block the plurality of target materials (51/52), a longer bar-shaped flap 61 of the block unit 60 of the baffle plate 6 has a larger block area, a shorter bar-shaped flap 61 has a smaller block area, and the lengths of the at least two bar-shaped flaps 61 of the block unit 60 gradually increase or decrease. Therefore, the block unit 60 can unevenly block the plurality of target materials (51/52), so that quantities of target material atoms that escape from the plurality of target materials (51/52) and move to the substrate 1 are not even, the plurality of target materials (51/52) can form, on the substrate 1, the composite film layer 2 whose thickness gradually decreases or increases, and the enclosure 200 can present a gradient color.

[0081] The lengths of the at least two bar-shaped flaps 61 in the fourth direction Y (which is a direction to which the bar-shaped flaps 61 extend) gradually increase or decrease along the third direction X (which is a direction in which the at least two bar-shaped flaps 61 are arranged). Therefore, the thickness of the composite film layer 2 formed on the substrate 1 gradually decreases or increases in the third direction X. For example, when the lengths of the at least two bar-shaped flaps 61 in the fourth direction Y gradually increase along the third direction X, the thickness of the composite film layer 2 formed on the substrate 1 gradually decreases along the third direction X. When the substrate 1 is fastened to the bearing surface 41, a direction on the substrate 1 that is the same as the third direction X is the first direction X. It can be understood that in a coating process, a gradual length increase or decrease of the at least two bar-shaped flaps 61 also affects a thickness change of the composite film layer 2 in another direction, for example, the second direction Y. The thickness of the composite film layer 2 in the second direction Y gradually decreases or increases, where an angle between the second direction Y and the first direction X is less than or equal to 90.

[0082] The baffle plate 6 may be made of a stainless steel, tin foil, or aluminum material. For example, the baffle plate 6 may be a thin stainless steel sheet, a foil, or an aluminum sheet. In this case, the baffle plate 6 is easy to cut and modify, so that a shape of the baffle plate 6 can better meet a requirement of uneven blockage. In other words, the at least two bar-shaped flaps 61 are integrally formed. The at least two bar-shaped flaps 61 may be obtained by cutting a same sheet of material. Certainly, in another implementation, the baffle plate 6 may alternatively be of an integral structure obtained through combination.

[0083] Certainly, in another implementation, a direction on the substrate 1 that is the same as the third direction X may alternatively be the second direction Y.

[0084] In an implementation, as shown in FIG. 6 and FIG. 7, the bearing surface 41 is a cylindrical surface, and the bearing surface 41 has at least one fastening region 410 arranged in a circumferential direction (this direction is perpendicular to an axis 411 of the bearing surface 41) of the bearing surface 41. The sputter coating apparatus 300 further includes a driving piece 7, and the driving piece 7 is configured to drive the base 4 to rotate at a preset rotation speed, so that the bearing surface 41 carries the substrate 1 to rotate around the axis 411 of the bearing surface 41.

[0085] In this implementation, more fastening regions 410 may be arranged, so that the bearing surface 41 can bear more substrates 1. When the driving piece 7 drives the base 4 to rotate, target material atoms sputtered by the plurality of target materials (51/52) are sequentially coated onto substrates 1 in different fastening regions 410, thereby implementing batch coating. When the driving piece 7 controls the base 4 to rotate at the preset rotation speed, both coating time and coating thicknesses of a plurality of substrates 1 fastened onto the bearing surface 41 can be reliably controlled, thereby increasing a yield rate of the enclosure 200.

[0086] The preset rotation speed may include a uniform speed section and a variable speed section. In the uniform speed section, thicknesses of films coated by using the target material atoms of the plurality of target materials (51/52) onto the plurality of the substrates 1 are relatively even. In the variable speed section, the target material atoms of the plurality of target materials (51/52) may be unevenly coated onto the substrates 1, so that the thickness of the composite film layer 2 on the substrate 1 changes gradually. For example, when the substrate 1 is fastened to the bearing surface 41, the second direction Y on the substrate 1 is the same as the circumferential direction of the bearing surface 41. When the rotation speed of the bearing surface 41 increases, the thickness of the composite film layer 2 in the second direction Y can significantly decrease.

[0087] A quantity of the fastening regions 410 may be greater than or equal to 2. A shape of the bearing surface 41 on a plane perpendicular to the axis 411 of the bearing surface 41 is a polygon. The fastening regions 410 are on a same side of the polygon.

[0088] In an implementation, referring to FIG. 6 to FIG. 8, all the fastening regions 410 include a plurality of fastening areas 412 arranged in the axial direction (this direction is parallel to the axis 411 of the bearing surface 41) of the bearing surface 41. One fastening area 412 is configured to fasten one substrate 1. The block units 60 of the baffle plates 6 are arranged in the axial direction of the bearing surface 41. A quantity of block units 60 of one baffle plate 6 is the same as a quantity of fastening areas 412 of one fastening region 410.

[0089] In this implementation, each fastening region 410 includes the plurality of fastening areas 412 to simultaneously fasten the plurality of substrates 1. The baffle plates 6 include a plurality of block units 60 corresponding to a plurality of substrates 1, and therefore the plurality of substrates 1 can be simultaneously coated, so that the sputter coating apparatus 300 can manufacture the enclosure 200 in larger scale.

[0090] In an implementation, as shown in FIG. 6 and FIG. 7, the plurality of target materials (51/52) are fastened to the inner wall 31 in the circumferential direction of the bearing surface 41 at equal intervals. In this case, the plurality of target materials (51/52) can simultaneously sputter target material atoms, and the target material atoms move to different substrates 1 to form a corresponding film layer. This improves processing efficiency of the substrates 1. In addition, the plurality of target materials (51/52) are disposed at intervals. This can also avoid mutual interference, so that the yield rate of the enclosure 200 is relatively high. Because the plurality of baffle plates 6 are of the same structure, gradual change trends of different film layers formed by the plurality of target materials (51/52) on the substrates 1 are approximately the same. This further ensures quality of the composite film layer 2.

[0091] In an implementation, the plurality of target materials (51/52) include a first target material 51 and a second target material 52, and a refractive index of the first target material 51 is different from that of the second target material 52. Because the plurality of baffle plates 6 are of the same structure, a thickness change trend of the first film layer (211/221) formed by the first target material 51 on the substrate 1 is the same as a thickness change trend of the different second film layer (212/222) formed by the second target material 52 on the substrate 1.

[0092] Materials used for the first target material 51 and the second target material 52 may be a high-refractive-index coating material and a low-refractive-index coating material, so that a coating system formed by the two materials has better coating effects on a surface of the substrate 1, for example, reflecting light with a relatively long wavelength while keeping the composite film layer 2 thin. Therefore, the enclosure 200 meets a higher experience requirement. For example, the first target material 51 is made of a titanium oxide material, and the second target material 52 is made of a silicon oxide material. Alternatively, the first target material 51 is made of a silicon nitride material, and the second target material 52 is made of a silicon oxide material. Certainly, in another implementation, other high-refractive-index target material and low-refractive-index target material may be alternatively used to implement coating effects. For example, the high-refractive-index target material may be titanium oxide (TiO.sub.2), silicon nitride (Si.sub.3N.sub.4), zirconia, zinc oxide, or the like. The low-refractive-index target material may be silicon oxide (SiO.sub.2), silicon fluoride, or the like.

[0093] A quantity of first film layers (211/221) formed by the first target material 51 and a quantity of second film layers (212/222) formed by the second target material 52 may be controlled by revolutions of the bearing surface 41.

[0094] In an implementation, as shown in FIG. 8, same ends of at least two bar-shaped flaps 61 of a same block unit 60 are aligned with each other. In this case, the other ends of the at least two bar-shaped flaps 61 protrude in sequence, and block effects of the baffle plate 6 is relatively controllable. The baffle plate 6 further includes a bracing piece 62, the aligned ends of the at least two bar-shaped flaps 61 of the baffle plate 6 are fastened to the bracing piece 62. The bracing piece 62 is fastened to the coating chamber 3.

[0095] In an implementation, referring to FIG. 8 and FIG. 9, the at least two bar-shaped flaps 61 include a first flap 611, a second flap 612, and a third flap 613 that are arranged in sequence, a difference between lengths of the third flap 613 and the second flap 612 in the fourth direction Y is a first difference, a difference between lengths of the second flap 612 and the first flap 611 in the fourth direction Y is a second difference, and a ratio of the second difference to the first difference is within a range of 0.5 to 2.0.

[0096] In this implementation, the ratio of the second difference to the first difference is within the range of 0.5 to 2.0, that is, the second difference is close to or the same as the first difference. Therefore, change trends of lengths of the at least two bar-shaped flaps 61 are flat, and film thicknesses of the composite film layer 2 in different regions change slowly, so that each of adjacent colors can be relatively fully presented. This can avoid sensory discomfort caused by a sudden color change in adjacent regions when a presentation area of a color is too small, thereby improving an appearance texture of the enclosure 200 and improving user experience.

[0097] When the ratio of the second difference to the first difference is within a range of 0.8 to 1.2, the film thicknesses of the composite film layer 2 in the different regions change more slowly, the color of the enclosure 200 changes more slowly, and user experience is better.

[0098] The foregoing descriptions are merely specific implementations of this application, but are not intended to limit the protection scope of this application. Any variation or replacement readily figured out by a person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this application shall fall within the protection scope of this application. Therefore, the protection scope of this application shall be subject to the protection scope of the claims.
