Referring to fig. 1 and 2, fig. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of an electronic device 1000 according to some embodiments of the present disclosure, and fig. 2 is a schematic structural diagram of a flexible screen assembly 100 according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. The electronic device 1000 generally includes a flexible screen assembly 100 and a housing 200; the flexible screen assembly 100 generally includes a flexible screen body 10, a support member 20, and a drive mechanism 30.
The flexible screen becomes the trend of the future whole machine design scheme, and the flexible screen mainly brings the advantage of improving the screen occupation ratio of the whole machine. The flexible screen can be freely bent, so that when the flexible screen is not used, the flexible screen is stored in the electronic equipment, and when the flexible screen is used, the flexible screen is unfolded. However, in the current technology, on the premise of maintaining the internal space of the electronic device, the flexible screen stored in the electronic device is limited, and the expansion range of the expansion area of the flexible screen when the flexible screen is expanded is small.
In order to solve the problems, the technical scheme of the embodiment of the application is that the flexible screen is supported by the supporting piece in a rolling and stretching mode and when the flexible screen is unfolded, so that the flexible screen has a larger unfolding area when being unfolded.
Specifically, the housing 200 is connected to the driving mechanism 30 of the flexible panel assembly 100, and the housing 200 has an accommodating space 201, and the flexible panel assembly 100 is disposed in the accommodating space 201. An opening 202 is formed on the side wall of the housing 200 for the flexible screen body 10 to extend and retract. In the present embodiment, the housing 200 is a substantially cylindrical structure. Of course, in other embodiments, the housing 200 may also be generally rectangular or cuboid-like in configuration.
Referring to fig. 3, fig. 3 is a partial structural schematic view of the flexible screen body 10 of the flexible screen assembly 100 according to some embodiments of the present application when unfolded. It will be appreciated that fig. 2 is a partial schematic structural view of the flexible screen body 10 of the flexible screen assembly 100 in some embodiments of the present application when not unrolled or rolled. Further, the flexible screen body 10 is attached to the support member 20, that is, the flexible screen body 10 and the support member 20 are stacked, and the flexible screen body 10 can be synchronously stretched along with the stretching of the support member 20. The driving mechanism 30 is connected to the supporting member 20 for driving the supporting member 20 to extend and retract. For example, the driving mechanism 30 may drive the support member 20 to move from the winding state shown in fig. 2 to the winding state shown in fig. 3, or may drive the support member 20 to move from the winding state shown in fig. 3 to the winding state shown in fig. 2.
It should be noted that all the directional indicators (such as upper, lower, left, right, front and rear … …) in the embodiment of the present invention are only used to explain the relative position relationship between the components, the movement situation, etc. in a specific posture (as shown in the drawing), and if the specific posture is changed, the directional indicator is changed accordingly.
Specifically, referring to fig. 4 and 5, fig. 4 is a schematic view of a partial cross-sectional structure taken along a-a direction in fig. 2, and fig. 5 is a schematic view of a partial cross-sectional structure taken along B-B direction in fig. 3. When the flexible screen body 10 is rolled, the flexible screen body 10 and the supporting piece 20 are arranged in an overlapping and rolling manner at intervals; the support member 20 serves to support the flexible screen body 10 when the flexible screen body 10 is unfolded. It will be appreciated that the thickness of the support member 20 in the cross-sectional direction of figures 4 and 5 is greater than the thickness of the flexible screen body 10 to provide a more stable support force to the flexible screen body 10.
Further, the flexible screen body 10 generally includes a display surface 11 and a non-display surface 12 which are oppositely arranged, and the display surface 11 is used for a user touch operation to realize touch interaction between the user and the electronic device 1000. The supporting member 20 is disposed on the non-display surface 12 of the flexible screen body 10 in a stacked manner, in other words, the supporting member 20 is attached to the non-display surface 12 of the flexible screen body 10, so that when the supporting member 20 extends and contracts, the flexible screen body 10 can be driven to extend and contract synchronously along the same direction.
In the embodiment of the present application, the supporting member 20 may be attached to the non-display surface 12 of the flexible screen body 10 by an Optical Clear Adhesive (OCA), which is within the understanding range of those skilled in the art and is not listed here. Of course, in other embodiments, the supporting member 20 may also be fixedly connected to the non-display surface 12 of the flexible screen body 10 by other methods, for example, a fixing method such as double-sided adhesive bonding, clamping, and the like.
It should be noted that, the flexible screen body 10 is driven by the support member 20 to extend and retract synchronously along the same direction, that is, the extending and retracting direction of the support member 20 is the direction in which the flexible screen body 10 extends and retracts in the opening 202 of the electronic device. The flexible screen body 10 can be extended or retracted from the opening 202 of the electronic device by the support member 20 stretching or retracting, and obviously, the support member 20 is also extended or retracted from the opening 202 of the electronic device in the process.
It will be appreciated that the drive mechanism 30 is coupled to the support member 20 to drive the support member 20 to the deployed or the wound-up state, i.e., the drive mechanism 30 provides the driving force required to move the support member 20. The support member 20 is in an unfolded state, i.e., a state in which the support member 20 is extended out of the opening 202 of the electronic device, and the support member 20 is in a rolled state, i.e., a state in which the support member 20 is retracted into the opening 202 of the electronic device. The unfolded or rolled state of the flexible screen body 10 is similar to that of the support member 20, and thus, the detailed description thereof will not be repeated.
With continued reference to fig. 4 and 5, drive mechanism 30 drives support member 20 in a first direction (indicated by F in fig. 4)1Direction), the supporting member 20 gradually extends out of the opening 202 of the electronic device to the unfolded state, and at this time, the flexible screen body 10 extends out to the unfolded state synchronously with the supporting member 20, that is, the flexible screen body 10 is in a planar state for displaying. The driving mechanism 30 drives the supporter 20 in the second direction (F shown in fig. 5)2Direction), the supporting member 20 gradually contracts into the opening 202 of the electronic device to a rolling state, and at this time, the flexible screen body 10 synchronously contracts to the rolling state along with the supporting member 20, so that the flexible screen body 10 and the supporting member 20 are overlapped and arranged in the accommodating space 201 of the housing 200.
In some embodiments of the present application, please refer to fig. 6, fig. 6 is a schematic structural diagram of a flexible screen assembly 100 in some embodiments of the present application, a driving mechanism 30 generally includes a driving motor 31 and a rotating member 32, the driving motor 31 drives the rotating member 32 to rotate, and the rotating member 32 is connected to an end of a supporting member 20 to drive the supporting member 20 to extend and retract. It is to be understood that the driving motor 31 may be a dc motor or an ac motor, or may be a permanent magnet synchronous motor, a reluctance synchronous motor or a hysteresis synchronous motor, or may also be one that can realize forward rotation and reverse rotation, such as a capacitor start type single phase asynchronous motor, a capacitor operation type single phase asynchronous motor, a capacitor start operation type single phase asynchronous motor, a split phase single phase asynchronous motor, and the like. The rotating member 32 may be a rotating shaft, and may be driven by the driving motor 31 to rotate in a forward or reverse direction. The side wall of the rotating shaft is fixedly connected with the end of the supporting member 20 to drive the supporting member 20 to extend and retract. For example, when the rotating shaft rotates in the forward direction, the supporting member 20 is in the first direction (F shown in FIG. 4)1Direction) of motion extension(ii) a When the rotation shaft is reversed, the support member 20 is in the second direction (F shown in FIG. 5)2Direction) of movement.
The flexible screen assembly provided by the embodiment of the application drives the support piece to move through the driving mechanism, and then the flexible screen body is driven to stretch, so that the working mode is simple. The flexible screen body is contracted inside the electronic equipment in a rolling mode, so that the occupied space is small; when the flexible screen body is unfolded, a large unfolding area can be provided, the display area of the electronic equipment is further improved, and the user experience is improved. In addition, the flexible screen is placed in a curling mode, folding is not needed, and the service life can be prolonged.
In some embodiments of the present application, please refer to fig. 7, fig. 7 is a schematic side view of the support member 20 in some embodiments of the present application when it is unfolded, and the support member 20 generally includes a support portion 21 and an elastic portion 22. The supporting portion 21 is attached to the non-display surface of the flexible screen body 10, and the elastic portion 22 is disposed on a side of the supporting portion 21, where the side of the supporting portion 21 is parallel to the stretching direction of the supporting member 20.
Specifically, when the supporting member 20 is unfolded, the supporting portion 21 is in a planar state, and the supporting portion 21 is attached to the non-display surface 12 of the flexible screen body 10; the elastic portion 22 is in an arc shape, and the elastic portion 22 keeps a straight state along the stretching direction of the support member 20 to support the support portion 21 in a flat state.
It should be noted that the cross section of the elastic portion 22 is arc-shaped, and can keep straight without external force, and under the condition of applying external force, the elastic portion 22 can be bent, and at this time, the arc-shaped structure of the elastic portion 22 will become straight, and the potential energy generated by this deformation can make the elastic portion 22 become straight after the external force is removed. In other words, the resilient portion 22 may be of a construction similar to a tape measure blade. The end of the elastic part 22 is fixedly connected to the rotating part 32 or the side wall of the rotating shaft to drive the elastic part 22 to move. For example, in the embodiment of the present application, the elastic portion 22 is made of an arc-shaped steel band, and an end portion of the arc-shaped steel band is fixedly connected to a side wall of the rotation shaft. Of course, in other embodiments, the flexible portion 22 may be an arc-shaped band structure made of other hard metal materials.
Specifically, the width of the support portion 21 perpendicular to the telescopic direction of the support member 20 is greater than or equal to the width of the flexible screen body 10 perpendicular to the telescopic direction of the flexible screen body 10, in other words, the width of the support portion 21 perpendicular to the movement direction of the support member 20 or the flexible screen body 10 is greater than or equal to the width of the flexible screen body 10 perpendicular to the movement direction of the support member 20 or the flexible screen body 10. Meanwhile, the length of the support portion 21 in the moving direction is greater than the length of the flexible screen body 10 in the moving direction. Through the length and the width that set up supporting part 21 not less than the length and the width of flexible screen body 10, can be so that flexible screen body 10 attaches on supporting part 21 completely, avoid flexible screen body 10 to surpass supporting part 21 and influence user experience and damage the flexible screen.
Further, the support portion 21 has a first thickness H1The elastic part 22 has a second thickness H2A second thickness H2Is substantially greater than the first thickness H1So that the elastic portion 22 can provide a stable supporting force for the supporting portion 21, thereby improving the stability of the display effect when the flexible screen body 10 is unfolded.
It should be noted that the terms "first", "second" and "third" in the present invention are used for descriptive purposes only and are not to be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implying any number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined as "first," "second," or "third" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of the feature.
In the present embodiment, telescoping of support member 20 includes extending support member 20 to an extended state and retracting support member 20 to a rolled state; when the supporting member 20 is extended to the expanded state, the cross section of the elastic portion 22 is arc-shaped, and the elastic portion 22 is in a straight state along the extending and retracting direction of the supporting member 20; when the support member 20 is contracted to the winding state, the cross section of the elastic portion 22 is linear.
Further, by providing the supporting portion 21 and the elastic portion 22, when the supporting portion 20 is unfolded, the elastic portion 22 is in a straight state along the stretching direction of the supporting portion 20 to support the supporting portion 21 in a planar state, so as to support the flexible screen body 10 attached to the supporting portion 21 to display in a planar state. When the supporting member 20 is contracted to the rolling state, the supporting member 20 and the flexible screen body 10 are overlapped at intervals and are accommodated in the accommodating space 201 of the housing 200.
Further, the plurality of elastic portions 22 are provided, and the plurality of elastic portions 22 are disposed at intervals, wherein at least two elastic portions are respectively disposed on two side edges of the supporting portion 21. For example, two elastic parts 22 may be provided, and the two elastic parts 22 are substantially arranged in parallel at intervals, and the two elastic parts 22 are respectively arranged on the side edges of the supporting part 21, and the side edges of the supporting part 21 are parallel to the telescopic direction of the supporting part 20 or the flexible screen body 10. For another example, three elastic portions 22 may be provided, and the three elastic portions 22 are substantially spaced apart from each other and arranged in parallel. Two of the three elastic parts 22 are respectively disposed on two sides of the supporting part 21, two sides of the supporting part 21 are respectively parallel to the stretching direction of the supporting part 20 or the flexible screen body 10, and the other elastic part 22 is disposed between the two elastic parts.
Further, it should be understood that the use of the term "substantially" herein in terms of a numerical quantity or other quantifiable relationship (e.g., perpendicularity or parallelism) is to be understood as indicating a quantity of ± 10%, unless otherwise defined with respect to a particular context. Thus, for example, lines that are substantially perpendicular to each other may be at an angle of between 81 ° and 99 ° to each other. In the description of the present invention, "a plurality" means at least two, e.g., two, three, etc., unless specifically limited otherwise.
Further, the end of the elastic portion 22 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the rotating member 32, and when the supporting member 20 gradually shrinks into the opening 202 of the electronic device to the rolled state, the cross section of the elastic portion 22 changes from the arc structure to the linear structure. When the supporting member 20 is in the rolled state, the elastic portions 22 of each layer formed by rolling are in direct contact with each other. Because the thickness of elastic part 22 is greater than the thickness of supporting part 21, and flexible screen body 10 itself is thinner for flexible screen body 10 is when rolling up the state, and the roll is covered and is formed every layer of flexible screen body 10 between can not direct contact, can prevent to rub each other and lead to flexible screen body 10 to damage. It will be appreciated that in the embodiment of this application, the thickness of the flexible screen body 10 is less than the second thickness H2And a first thickness H1The difference in thickness of (a).
Of course, in other embodiments, the thickness of the flexible screen body 10 may be less than the thickness of the elastic portion 22, i.e. the thickness of the flexible screen body 10 is less than the second thickness H2. At this time, the support member 20 may be formed of only the elastic portion 22 without the support portion 21.
Specifically, referring to fig. 8, fig. 8 is a schematic side view of the support member 20 in another embodiment of the present application when it is unfolded, in which the support member 20 generally includes a plurality of elastic portions 22, and the elastic portions 22 are disposed at intervals, wherein at least two elastic portions 22 are respectively disposed on two edges of the flexible screen body 10, and the two edges of the flexible screen body 10 are parallel to the extending direction of the flexible screen body 10. Further, the structures of the elastic parts 22 and the elastic parts 22 in the above embodiments and the matching relationship with the rotating part 32 are substantially the same, so that no further description is provided in this embodiment, and the matching relationship between the elastic parts 22 and the flexible screen body 10 is mainly described in this embodiment.
Further, at least two elastic parts 22 of the plurality of elastic parts 22 are respectively disposed at two edges of the flexible screen body 10, and when the flexible screen body 10 is unfolded, the elastic parts 22 are in a straight state along the stretching direction of the flexible screen body 10 to support the flexible screen body 10 to display in a planar state. The elastic portions 22 are disposed at two edges of the flexible screen body 10, which are parallel to the extending and contracting direction of the flexible screen body 10. The elastic part 22 can be fixed on the edge of the flexible screen body 10 by fixing means such as optical adhesive, double-sided adhesive bonding, clamping and the like.
It will be appreciated that the thickness of the flexible screen body 10 may be less than the thickness of the resilient portion 22, i.e. the thickness of the flexible screen body 10 is less than the second thickness H2When the flexible screen body 10 is in a rolling state, each layer of flexible screen body 10 formed by rolling cannot be in direct contact with each other, and the flexible screen body 10 can be prevented from being damaged due to mutual friction.

The main body 23 is similar to the elastic part 22 in the previous embodiment, that is, the supporting member 20 in the present embodiment generally includes an elastic part 22 and a position-limiting part 24. The elastic portion 22 is attached to the non-display surface of the flexible screen body 10, and the limiting portion 24 extends along the edge of the elastic portion 22 toward the flexible screen body 10. The end of the elastic part 22 is fixedly connected with the rotating part of the driving mechanism 30 to obtain the driving force required by the extension and contraction of the supporting part 20.
