The first portion is disposed on the first cover and the second portion is disposed on the second cover. The connecting portion is coupled to the first portion and the second portion. The elastic connecting mechanism connects the first cover and the second cover.

當折疊式電子裝置位於一顯示狀態時,第一蓋體與第二蓋體大致位於一平面,且第一接合元件連接於第二接合元件,並維持第一蓋體與第二蓋體之間的相對角度。當折疊式電子裝置位於一收合狀態時,第一蓋體與第二蓋體於垂直於平面之一排列方向上相互疊置,且第一接合元件與第二接合元件相互分離。 When the folding electronic device is in a display state, the first cover and the second cover are substantially in a plane, and the first engaging element is coupled to the second engaging element and maintains between the first cover and the second cover The relative angle. When the folding electronic device is in a folded state, the first cover and the second cover overlap each other in a direction perpendicular to one of the planes, and the first engaging element and the second engaging element are separated from each other.

綜上所述,本創作之折疊式電子裝置,利用將第一蓋體與第二蓋體展開並排,使得可撓式螢幕展開以提供較大之顯示畫面。當將折疊式電子裝置進行收納時,可將第一蓋體與第二蓋體進行疊置,以使得可撓式螢幕彎曲折疊,以減少折疊式電子裝置之最大長度,進而方便使用者收納與攜帶。 In summary, the foldable electronic device of the present invention utilizes the first cover and the second cover to be side by side, so that the flexible screen is deployed to provide a larger display. When the folding electronic device is stored, the first cover body and the second cover body may be stacked to bend and fold the flexible screen to reduce the maximum length of the folding electronic device, thereby facilitating the user to store and carry.

FIG. 2 is a schematic view of the foldable electronic device 1 of the present disclosure in the above display state. The folding electronic device 1 can be a smart phone or a personal computer. In this embodiment, the foldable electronic device 1 is a smart phone.

折疊式電子裝置1包括一第一蓋體10、一第二蓋體20、以及一可撓式螢幕30。第一蓋體10與第二蓋體20大致為一板狀結構。如第1圖及第2圖所示,當折疊式電子裝置1位於一顯示狀態時,第一蓋體10與第二蓋體20大致位於一平面P1,此時,可撓式螢幕30亦大致位於平面P1上,以方面使用者觀看。 The folding electronic device 1 includes a first cover 10, a second cover 20, and a flexible screen 30. The first cover 10 and the second cover 20 have a substantially plate-like structure. As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, when the folding electronic device 1 is in a display state, the first cover 10 and the second cover 20 are substantially located on a plane P1. At this time, the flexible screen 30 is also substantially It is located on the plane P1 and is viewed by the user.

此外,第一蓋體10與第二蓋體20可相互分離(如第3圖及第4圖所示)。於第一蓋體10與第二蓋體20相互分離後,第一蓋體10與第二蓋體20可相互旋轉並疊置(如第5圖及第6圖所示)。藉此,折疊式電子裝置1可於一收合狀態將可撓式螢幕30收納於第一蓋體10與第二蓋體20之間。 Further, the first cover 10 and the second cover 20 are separable from each other (as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4). After the first cover 10 and the second cover 20 are separated from each other, the first cover 10 and the second cover 20 are rotatable and superposed on each other (as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6). Thereby, the folding electronic device 1 can accommodate the flexible screen 30 between the first cover 10 and the second cover 20 in a folded state.

FIG. 4 is a schematic view of the folding electronic device 1 of the present disclosure in the above moving state. The user can move the first cover 10 and the second cover 20 in opposite directions to disengage the first engagement element 12 from the second engagement element 22.

此時,由於彈性連接機構50所提供之拉力,因此限制了第一蓋體10與第二蓋體20之間的間隔距離,例如約1至3公分的範圍之間。另外,此時由於彈性連接機構50與可撓式螢幕30為可彎曲的,因此使用者可將第一蓋體10與第二蓋體20相互疊置。 At this time, due to the pulling force provided by the elastic connecting mechanism 50, the separation distance between the first cover 10 and the second cover 20 is limited, for example, between about 1 and 3 cm. In addition, since the elastic connecting mechanism 50 and the flexible screen 30 are bendable at this time, the user can stack the first cover 10 and the second cover 20 on each other.

第5圖為本揭露之折疊式電子裝置1於收合狀態時的立體圖。第6圖為本揭露之折疊式電子裝置1於上述收合狀態時的示意圖。如第5圖與第6圖所示,當折疊式電子裝置1位於一收合狀態時,第一蓋體10與第二蓋體20於垂直於平面P1之排列方向D2上相互疊置。第一連接面11與第二連接面21可垂直於平面P1延伸,且沿排列方向D2排列。 FIG. 5 is a perspective view of the foldable electronic device 1 of the present disclosure in a collapsed state. FIG. 6 is a schematic view of the folded electronic device 1 of the present disclosure in the above folded state. As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, when the folding electronic device 1 is in a folded state, the first cover 10 and the second cover 20 are superposed on each other in the direction D2 perpendicular to the plane P1. The first connecting surface 11 and the second connecting surface 21 may extend perpendicular to the plane P1 and are arranged along the arrangement direction D2.

第一接合元件12與第二接合元件22相互分離,且可相互平行。於本實施例中,第一接合元件12為一插銷,且第二接合元件22為一插孔,且插銷脫離插孔。 The first engaging element 12 and the second engaging element 22 are separated from each other and may be parallel to each other. In the present embodiment, the first engaging element 12 is a latch, and the second engaging element 22 is a jack, and the latch is disengaged from the jack.

第一邊框15連接於第二邊框25,且於排列方向D2上相互疊置。第一蓋體10具有設置於第一邊框15上之一第一扣合元件16,且第二蓋體20具有設置於第二邊框25上之一第二扣合元件26。於本實施例中,第一扣合元件16可為一扣合槽,第二扣合元件26可為扣合塊。 The first frame 15 is connected to the second frame 25 and overlaps each other in the arrangement direction D2. The first cover 10 has a first fastening element 16 disposed on the first frame 15 , and the second cover 20 has a second fastening element 26 disposed on the second frame 25 . In this embodiment, the first fastening component 16 can be a fastening slot, and the second fastening component 26 can be a fastening component.

當折疊式電子裝置1位於收合狀態時,第一扣合元件16與第二扣合元件26相互扣合。因此藉由第一扣合元件16與第二扣合元件26能於折疊式電子裝置1為收合狀態時,限制第一蓋體10與第二蓋體20之間相互移動或分離。 When the folding electronic device 1 is in the folded state, the first fastening component 16 and the second fastening component 26 are engaged with each other. Therefore, when the first fastening component 16 and the second fastening component 26 can be in the collapsed state of the folding electronic device 1, the first cover 10 and the second cover 20 are restricted from moving or separating from each other.

如第5圖與第6圖所示,可撓式螢幕30之第一部分31與第二部分32於排列方向D2上相互疊置,且位於第一蓋體10與第二蓋體20之間。 As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the first portion 31 and the second portion 32 of the flexible screen 30 are superposed on each other in the arrangement direction D2 and are located between the first cover 10 and the second cover 20.

因此,當折疊式電子裝置1為收合狀態時,折疊式電子裝置1之最大長度較折疊式電子裝置1為顯示狀態約減少一半,進而可方便使用者收納與攜帶。 Therefore, when the folding electronic device 1 is in the collapsed state, the maximum length of the folding electronic device 1 is reduced by about half compared with the display state of the folding electronic device 1, thereby facilitating storage and carrying by the user.

當折疊式電子裝置1位於上述收合狀態時,連接部分33與連接帶52突出於第一蓋體10之第一連接面11以及第二蓋體20之第二連接面21。此外,藉由第一邊框15與第二邊框25間隔了可撓式螢幕30之第一部分31與第二部分32之間的距離,因此連接部分33與連接帶52形成一弧狀結構,可撓式螢幕30不會因過度彎折而損害。 When the folding electronic device 1 is in the folded state, the connecting portion 33 and the connecting belt 52 protrude from the first connecting surface 11 of the first cover 10 and the second connecting surface 21 of the second cover 20. In addition, the distance between the first portion 31 and the second portion 32 of the flexible screen 30 is separated by the first frame 15 and the second frame 25, so that the connecting portion 33 and the connecting belt 52 form an arc structure, which is flexible The screen 30 is not damaged by excessive bending.

再者,連接部分33位於彈性連接機構50之連接帶52之間。換句話說,連接帶52包覆連接部分33。因此,當折疊式電子裝置1位於一收合狀態時,彈性連接機構50可保護露出於第一蓋體10與第二蓋體20之可撓式螢幕30。 Further, the connecting portion 33 is located between the connecting belts 52 of the elastic connecting mechanism 50. In other words, the connecting belt 52 covers the connecting portion 33. Therefore, when the folding electronic device 1 is in a folded state, the elastic connecting mechanism 50 can protect the flexible screen 30 exposed to the first cover 10 and the second cover 20.

綜上所述,本創作之折疊式電子裝置,利用將第一蓋體與第二蓋體展開並排,使得可撓式螢幕展開以提供較大之顯示畫面。當將折疊式電子裝置進行收納時,可將第一蓋體與第二蓋體進行疊置,以使得可撓式螢幕彎曲折疊,以減少折疊式電子裝置之最大長度,進而方便使用者收納與攜帶。 In summary, the foldable electronic device of the present invention utilizes the first cover and the second cover to be side by side, so that the flexible screen is deployed to provide a larger display. When the folding electronic device is stored, the first cover body and the second cover body may be stacked to bend and fold the flexible screen to reduce the maximum length of the folding electronic device, thereby facilitating the user to store and carry.
