Rotary shaft apparatus and foldable electronic device

A rotating module is provided and includes two rotating arms, and a bracket having a track groove and located between the two rotating arms. Each rotating arm includes a first rotating piece, a first end of which is located in the track groove; and a second rotating piece connected with the bracket and a second end of the first rotating piece respectively. In a folded state, a rotation center of the first rotating piece is a first position on the groove wall of the track groove; in an unfolded state, the rotation center of the first rotating piece is a second position on the groove wall of the track groove. The second position is located between a center position of the track groove and the first position, and the rotation center of the first rotating piece is one rotation center of the rotating arm.

Rotating module and electronic device

A hinge structure includes housing and at least one first hinge, the first hinge includes trajectory limiting mechanism including first hinge bracket connected to the housing, first slider including first hollow chute, and second slider including second hollow chute; and synchronization mechanism including cylindrical gear set, first guide gear, and second guide gear, first guide gear and second guide gear including gear end and guide end respectively, the gear end of first guide gear engaging with end gear of the cylindrical gear set, the gear end of second guide gear engaging with another end gear of the cylindrical gear set, the guide end of first guide gear being in sliding fit with first hollow chute, and the guide end of the second guide gear being in sliding fit with second hollow chute, to drive the first and second sliders respectively to rotate with respect to first hinge bracket.

Hinge structure and folding electronic device

A hinge structure includes: a supporting sheet having an unfolded, flattened state and a folded state; at least one first hinge connected to the supporting sheet, the at least one first hinge being configured to drive the supporting sheet to switch between the unfolded, flattened state and the folded state; at least one flattening support including a first support, a second support, and a flattening bracket, the flattening bracket being connected to the first support and the second support, the flattening bracket being connected to the supporting sheet. When the supporting sheet is in the unfolded, flattened state, the first support and the second support interact with each other and generate a force parallel to a plane where the supporting sheet is located, to maintain the supporting sheet in the unfolded, flattened state.

A hinge includes: a trajectory limiting mechanism, including a first slider and a second slider; a first hinge bracket, for cooperating with the first slider and the second slider, the first hinge bracket being configured to limit rotation trajectories of the first slider and the second slider; a synchronization mechanism, cooperating with the trajectory limiting mechanism, for driving the first slider and the second slider into rotation relative to the first hinge bracket in a preset direction respectively; and a locking mechanism, cooperating with the synchronization mechanism, the locking mechanism having a locked state in which the locking mechanism is configured to prevent movement of the synchronization mechanism to maintain a relative positional relationship between the first slider and the second slider.

Hinge, hinge assembly and foldable electronic device

The disclosure relates to a rotating component and a terminal device. The rotating component includes: a hinge bracket; a movable strip disposed on the hinge bracket, the movable strip including a first meshing portion facing toward the hinge bracket and a second meshing portion facing away from the hinge bracket. The rotating component further includes two rotating structures, where the first rotating structure is disposed on one side of the movable strip and meshed with the first meshing portion, and the second rotating structure is disposed on another side of the movable strip and meshed with the second meshing portion. When the movable strip moves, the two rotating structures rotate synchronously in opposite rotation directions.

Rotating component and terminal device

An electronic device includes a body and a flexible display. The body is provided with a slide rail and includes a first surface, a second surface opposite the first surface and a side surface coupling the first and second surfaces. The flexible display is disposed on the body and includes a first and a second display portion. The first display portion is mounted with a bracket, and the bracket slides relative to the slide rail to switch the flexible display between a retracted state and a slide-out state. When in the retracted state, the first display portion covers the first surface and the side surface, and the second display portion covers at least a part of the second surface; wherein when switched to the slide-out state, a free end of the first display portion is approached the side surface to expose a hidden region of the first surface.

Electronic device

A terminal includes: a body including a body front and a body rear; a flexible display screen extending from the body front to the body rear; and a retractable mechanical member arranged at an edge between the body front and the body rear. The retractable mechanical member is configured to drive a display region of the flexible display screen located on the body rear to move from the body rear to the body front along the edge when the retractable mechanical member is in an outwardly extended state, and drive a display region of the flexible display screen located on the body front to move from the body front to the body rear along the edge when the retractable mechanical member is in an inwardly retracted state.

Terminal and retractable mechanical member

Provided is an electronic device, including a body and a flexible display. The body includes a first surface, a second surface, and a lateral surface. The first surface and the second surface are opposite to each other and the lateral surface is adjacent to the first surface and the second surface. The flexible display includes a first display portion and a second display portion that are integrated. The flexible display is switchable between a retracted state and a sliding-out state. When the flexible display is in the retracted state, the first display portion covers the first surface and the lateral surface, and the second display portion covers the second surface. When the flexible display is switched from the retracted state to the sliding-out state, the first display portion slides in a direction where a free end thereof gets close to the lateral surface to expose a hidden region of the first surface.
