Abstract
A shell of mobile communication terminal is provided. The shell includes a shell body made by a transparent or semitransparent material and having an outer surface and an inner surface. The inner surface has patterns formed thereon. A semitransparent-semireflecting layer is formed on the outer surface of the shell body. The patterns can be observed from outside of the shell body when there is light transmitting from the inner surface to the outer surface, and the semitransparent-semireflecting layer presents a mirror effect when there is no light transmitting from the inner surface to the outer surface.
Claims19
A shell of mobile communication terminal, comprising:
- a shell body made by a transparent or semitransparent material and having an outer surface and an inner surface, the inner surface having patterns formed thereon;
- and
- a semitransparent-semireflecting layer formed on the outer surface of the shell body, wherein the patterns can be observed from outside of the shell body when there is light transmitting from the inner surface to the outer surface, and the semitransparent-semireflecting layer presents a mirror effect when there is no light transmitting from the inner surface to the outer surface, wherein the semitransparent-semireflecting layer has a transmittance of about 5%-25%.
A shell of mobile communication terminal, comprising:
- a shell body made by a transparent or semitransparent material and having an outer surface and an inner surface, the inner surface having patterns formed thereon;
- and
- a semitransparent-semireflecting layer formed on the outer surface of the shell body, wherein the patterns can be observed from outside of the shell body when there is light transmitting from the inner surface to the outer surface, and the semitransparent-semireflecting layer presents a mirror effect when there is no light transmitting from the inner surface to the outer surface,
- wherein, the semitransparent-semireflecting layer comprises:
- a primer layer coated on the outer surface;
- an electroplated layer formed on the primer layer by electroplating a predetermined amount of a target material;
- a colored paint layer with a predetermined thickness coated on the electroplated layer;
- and
- a topcoat layer with a predetermined thickness coated on the colored paint layer.
A method for forming a shell of mobile communication terminal comprising:
- forming a shell body having an outer surface and an inner surface with a transparent or semitransparent material;
- forming patterns on the inner surface of the shell body;
- forming a semitransparent-semireflecting layer on the outer surface of the shell body, wherein, said patterns can be observed from outside of the shell body when there is light transmitting from the inner surface to the outer surface, and the semitransparent-semireflecting layer presents a mirror effect when there is no light transmitting from the inner surface to the outer surface, wherein the semitransparent-semireflecting layer has a transmittance of about 5%-25%.
A method of forming a display module of mobile communication terminal, comprising:
- forming a shell;
- forming a localizing frame;
- forming a luminescence unit;
- fixing the luminescence unit on the localizing frame;
- and
- connecting the shell with the localizing frame, wherein, the luminescence unit is set between the inner surface of the shell and the localizing frame in order that the light emitted from the luminescence unit can pass the shell from the inner surface to the outer surface, wherein the shell includes a semitransparent-semirefiectind layer with a transmittance of about 5%-25%.
