Window for preventing camera distortion in an electronic device

1. A window of an electronic device comprising a shooting region in a position corresponding to a camera lens assembly, the window comprising:

a front surface including the shooting region and having a curved shape; and

a rear surface including an inclined surface to prevent deterioration of image capture quality, the inclined surface being within the shooting region and facing a surface of the camera lens assembly, the inclined surface being inclined relative to a cross-section of the facing surface of the camera lens assembly across the shooting region;

wherein inclination of the inclined surface across an entire extent of the shooting region and towards a lateral edge of the window is one of: continuously away from, or continuously towards, the facing surface;

wherein the curvature of the front surface is determined such that a vertical distance between two points where respective extension lines on opposite sides of an angle of view in the camera lens assembly and the front surface meet is less than 0.05 mm.

2. A window of an electronic device comprising a shooting region in a position corresponding to a camera lens assembly, the window comprising:

a front surface disposed within at least a portion of the shooting region and having a curved shape; and

a rear surface including an inclined surface for preventing image capture quality deterioration, the inclined surface being disposed within the shooting region;

wherein the inclined surface is parallel to a tangential line that passes through a first point on the front surface, the first point being a point at which a first line segment extending from a lens center of the camera lens assembly passes, where the first line segment is at a right angle to a second line segment connecting second and third points of the front surface at which boundary lines on opposite sides of an angle of view of the camera lens assembly intersect the front surface.

3. The window of claim 2 , wherein the shooting region is formed to have a margin space of a predetermined distance D beyond a region between two points where an extension line of an angle of view of the camera lens assembly and the front surface meet to prevent a malfunction due to assembly tolerance.

4. The window of claim 2 , wherein first and second opposite ends of the inclined surface in cross-section are formed to be lower than adjacent portions of the rear surface.

5. The window of claim 4 , wherein a boundary portion between the inclined surface and the rear surface is tapered.

6. The window of claim 2 , wherein the inclined surface is formed to have a first surface portion starting from an adjacent portion of the rear surface and a second surface portion lower than the adjacent portion of the rear surface.

7. The window of claim 6 , wherein a boundary portion between the inclined surface and the rear surface is tapered.

8. An electronic device comprising:

a camera lens assembly, and

a transparent window having a front surface facing outward of the electronic device, and having a recess formed in a rear surface thereof, the recess facing a surface of the camera lens assembly and having a portion sloped in cross-section relative to a cross section of the facing surface of the camera lens assembly, with a slope that is one of:

continuously positive across an entire extent of the facing surface; or

continuously negative across the entire extent of the facing surface;

wherein the recess is formed to have an inclined surface which is inclined in relation to a curvature of the outer surface; and

wherein when a first line segment connecting two points where an extension line of an angle of view of the camera lens assembly and the outer surface meet, and a second line segment extending from a lens center of the camera lens assembly meet at a right angle, the inclined surface is formed to have the same slope as a slope of a tangential line that passes through a point of the outer surface positioned on the second line segment.

9. The window of claim 2 , wherein the inclined surface includes a second inclined surface attached on the rear surface within the shooting region.

10. A window of an electronic device comprising a shooting region in a position corresponding to a camera lens assembly, the window comprising:

a front surface including the shooting region and having a curved shape; and

a rear surface including an inclined surface to prevent deterioration of image capture quality, the inclined surface being within the shooting region and facing a surface of the camera lens assembly, the inclined surface being inclined relative to a cross-section of the facing surface of the camera lens assembly across the shooting region;

wherein inclination of the inclined surface across an entire extent of the shooting region and towards a lateral edge of the window is one of: continuously away from, or continuously towards, the facing surface;

wherein the shooting region is formed to have a margin space of a predetermined distance D beyond a region between two points where an extension line of an angle of view of the camera lens assembly and the front surface meet to prevent a malfunction due to assembly tolerance, the distance D being in a range of 0.2 mm to 0.3 mm.

11. An electronic device comprising the window of claim 2 and the camera lens assembly.

12. An electronic device comprising the window of claim 1 and the camera lens assembly.

13. An electronic device comprising the window of claim 10 and the camera lens assembly.

14. The electronic device of claim 8 , wherein the portion of the recess sloped in cross section is linear across the entire extent of the facing surface.

15. The electronic device of claim 8 , wherein the recess is formed to have a curvature corresponding to a curvature of the outer surface.
