when the first and

second folding plates

11, 12 are unfolded, the transmission member 66 rotates around the arc-shaped channel 144 of the limiting mechanism 14, the fourth gear 665 on the transmission member 66 drives the third gear 642 of the transmission wheel 64 to rotate, the second gear 643 integrated with the third gear 642 drives the first gear 633 of the lifting member 63 to rotate, the rotation of the first gear 633 enables the lifting member 63 to stand until the first rotating shaft 612 is located at the bottom of the strip-shaped hole 632, and the lifting member 63 continues to ascend and the base 61 ascends due to the continuous rotation, and finally the lifting plate 50 is driven to ascend, that is, the lifting plate 50 moves to ascend in a direction away from the back cover 20. When fully unfolded, the lifting plate 50 is raised to be flush with the first and

second folding plates

11, 12 to support the folding screen 80 in the unfolded state.

Conversely, when the first and

second folding plates

11, 12 are folded, the lifting plate 50 is lowered and moved toward the back cover 20 to avoid the folding area 82 of the folding screen 80 to prevent the folding screen 80 from being pressed.

The arc-shaped channel 144 on the limiting mechanism 14 controls the rotation path of the transmission member 66 to conform to the optimal folding path of the folding screen 80, and the lifting members 63, the transmission wheels 64 and the transmission member 66 are disposed at two longitudinal sides of the base 61, which are point-symmetric, so that the first and

second folding plates

11, 12 can be folded or unfolded at a uniform speed, that is, either side of the first and

second folding plates

11, 12 can be folded or unfolded at a certain angle, and the other side can also be folded or unfolded at the same angle by the lifting mechanism 60.

The lifting mechanism 60 of this application is still through the mode that sets up lifter plate 50, when folding, makes lifter plate 50 returns back lid 20 one side in order to dodge folding screen 80, and when expanding, lifter plate 50 rise to with first,

second folding plate

11, 12 parallel and level are in order to support folding screen 80, the problem of being destroyed easily by the weak change of the inside and outside cambered surface length that the folding in-process of expanding of folding screen 80 caused has been solved to the perfection.

As shown in fig. 17 to 19, after the foldable display device of the present application is folded, the space required by the folding or unfolding process is provided for the foldable screen 80 by the supplementary support and avoidance of the lifting plate 50.
