具体实施方式
下面将结合本申请实施例中的附图，对本申请实施例中的技术方案进行清楚、完整地描述，显然，所描述的实施例仅仅是本申请的一部分实施例，而不是全部的实施例。基于本申请中的实施例，本领域普通技术人员在没有做出创造性劳动的前提下所获得的所有其它实施例，都属于本申请保护的范围。
请参阅图1所示的支撑机构100，设置于柔性显示屏200的背面201。支撑机构100包括层叠的贴合层10和承载层20，贴合层10和承载层20的层叠方向与支撑机构100层叠于柔性显示屏200的方向相同。其中贴合层10包括相背设置的贴合面101及连接面11，贴合面101与背面201接触。贴合层10还设有第一作用力发生元件010。承载层20支撑所述贴合层10，且位于所述连接面11所在的一侧，即，承载层20位于贴合层10远离柔性显示屏200的一侧。也即贴合层10位于柔性显示屏200与承载层20之间。贴合面10的延伸方向为第一方向001，柔性显示屏200在第一方向001上包括弯折段202。可以理解的，弯折段202可以弯折，使得柔性显示屏200做出折叠、卷曲等形变，进而改变柔 性显示屏200的空间姿态，可以达到诸如特殊的显示效果或便于收纳携带等优点。作为柔性显示屏200的支撑，支撑机构100需要随柔性显示屏200的弯折而发生相应的形变。在本申请支撑机构100中，贴合层10可以随柔性显示屏200任意弯折，承载层20则通过带动贴合层10弯折的铰链30来实现整个支撑机构100的弯折能力。具体的，承载层20在对应弯折段202的位置处设有铰链30，铰链30的弯折方向和可弯折角度都随弯折段202而设置。支撑机构100还包括有第二作用力发生元件020。第二作用力发生元件020与铰链30连接，第二作用力发生元件020与第一作用力发生元件010产生相互拉近的作用力，以保持贴合层10与铰链30之间在垂直于贴合面101的方向上相对距离固定。
可以理解的，只要第一作用力发生元件010和第二作用力发生元件020之间能产生相互拉近的作用力，都可以实现本申请支撑机构100的技术方案。例如第一作用力发生元件010与第二作用力发生元件020之间为螺纹连接的方式，或滑块与滑槽的连接方式等，都可以产生相互拉近的作用力。在图1的实施例中，第二作用力发生元件020为磁铁60，磁铁60固连于铰链30上，贴合层10上的第一作用力发生元件010包括具有磁性的金属材料，贴合层10因为包括了有磁性的金属材料而与磁铁60相互吸附，以保持贴合层10与铰链30之间在垂直于贴合面101的方向上相对距离固定。
请参阅图2，支撑机构100在随柔性显示屏200一同弯折的过程中，因为支撑机构100及柔性显示屏200均具备一定的厚度，因此二者的弯折半径会产生差异。在图2实施例中柔性显示屏200位于弯折半径更大的一侧，相较于图1的状态，柔性显示屏200在第一方向001上会相对支撑机构100发生一定的位移。现有技术中，整个柔性显示屏200是多个结构层通过光学双面胶粘合起来形成的物理叠层，且该物理叠层的弯折半径及弯折寿命跟叠层的层数及厚度有非常大的相关性。整个柔性显示屏200贴合到整机上时弯折段202往往无法直接与整机支撑装置全贴合固定，否则会出现弯折段202在弯折过程中物理中性面的转移，造成较为脆弱的柔性显示屏200发生拉裂或损坏等不良后果。另一方面，如果弯折段202因为叠层结构不同，造成各个柔性显示屏200的层厚存在偏差，在整机弯折和展平过程中容易出现弯折段202起翘的风险，柔性显示屏200难以实现大规模产品化。而本申请支撑机构100，贴合层10与柔性显示屏200的弹性模量相近，二者在弯曲时发生的拉伸情况也较为接近，而不会出现拉伸程度不一致造成的柔性显示屏损坏的问题。因此，本申请的贴合层10与柔性显示屏200可完全贴合形成一体，在柔性显示屏200反复弯折时，与柔性显示屏200对应的贴合层10可以保持与弯折段202的接触，对弯折段202形成可靠的支撑。优选地，本实施例采用铁基或镍基的液态金属作为贴合层10与柔性显示屏200贴合固定。此外，铰链30在朝向贴合层10一侧固连有磁铁60，磁铁60与贴合层10相互固持，贴合层10在磁铁60的作用下始终受到朝向铰链30的拉力，贴合层10与铰链30之间的相对位置得以被固定。这样的设置避免了支撑机构100的相对两端受到挤压时，贴合层10与铰链30分离而发生不可控的起翘的缺陷。
需要提出的是，在图1和图2的实施例中，磁铁60与贴合层10直接接触， 因磁铁60与铰链30固结，因而磁铁60可以对贴合层10提供直接的支撑。但在其余一些实施例中，磁铁60也可以与贴合层10之间架空，即二者之间设有间隙，磁铁60与贴合层10之间同样可以通过磁吸力来相互吸附，实现固持。此时铰链30没有直接对贴合层10进行支撑，但因为铰链30与贴合层10之间相互吸附，二者在垂直于所述贴合面101的方向上同样可以保持相对的距离，进而实现本申请技术方案所要达到的技术效果。
磁铁60贴附于贴合层10上。具体的，贴合层10具有与贴合面101相对的连接面11，因为贴合层10具有磁性的金属材料，磁铁60与连接面11的贴合，在第一方向001上可以相对滑动。这样在贴合面10与铰链30之间发生位移时，磁铁60也能保证与贴合层10的可靠吸附，进而保护本申请支撑机构100的结构刚度和稳定性。换句话说，贴合面10与铰链30并未完全固定住，而是在弯折段202具有一定滑动空间，使得在弯折段202弯折时贴合面10可相对铰链30滑动，以此来避免柔性显示屏200的弯折段202出现被铰链30拉伸的情况。
可以理解的，所述磁铁60可以采用铁氧体磁铁、铝镍钴、钐钴等磁性材料制备。而为了提供更大的磁吸力，磁铁60还可以采用如钕铁硼磁铁等强力磁铁制备，使得铰链30与贴合面10之间的距离得到更可靠的控制。
另一方面，图1的实施例中第二作用力发生元件020为磁铁60，第一作用力发生元件010为贴合层10中包括磁性的金属材料，第一作用力元件010与第二作用力元件020之间通过产生磁力来形成相互拉近的作用力。在其余一些实施例中，第一作用力发生元件010与第二作用力发生元件020之间还可以通过螺纹配合产生拉力，或通过滑块与滑槽的配合也产生拉力，来形成相互拉近的作用力，同样可以使得贴合层10与铰链30在垂直于贴合面101的方向上相对距离固定。
一种实施例见图3，图3为弯折段202处的细节示意图。磁铁60部分收容于铰链30内。具体的，铰链30内设收容腔301，磁铁60包括贴合部61以及与所述贴合部61相对的收容部62，收容部62与收容腔301配合并实现固连，贴合部61与贴合层10接触并实现吸附功能。可以理解的，收容部62的外形与收容腔301的内部形状相匹配，利于铰链30对磁铁60的固持。收容腔301提供沿贴合面101延伸方向，即第一方向001上的两面支撑壁3011。支撑壁3011可以在支撑机构100弯折的过程中，当贴合层10与贴合部61发生位移时对磁铁60提供支撑，避免贴合部61因为摩擦力而与铰链30发生位移，破坏磁铁60与铰链30的固定连接。
对于贴合部61，在图3的实施例中，贴合部61沿第一方向001呈圆弧形。圆弧形的贴合部61在与贴合层10接触时接触面积更小，进而在支撑机构100弯折时与贴合层10的摩擦面更小，可以有效的保护贴合层10在多次弯折后受到更少的摩擦损害。进一步地，铰链30包含多个相互铰接的链节31，各链节31之间活动连接而使得铰链30可弯折。铰链30的每个链节31的顶面均为弧形，因而呈圆弧形的贴合部61能够与链节31顶面的弧度保持一致，即使得链节31的整个顶面与贴合部61呈平滑过渡。图4的实施例中，因为贴合部61的圆弧形设置，贴合层10在弯折过程中能够更加贴合的与贴合部61发生接触。且因 为铰链30的弯折半径与贴合层10的弯折半径、柔性显示屏200的弯折半径相匹配，贴合部61始终随着铰链30的弯折半径与贴合层10发生接触，进而始终为贴合层10提供顺滑的形状支撑，避免拐点的出现。
可以理解的，贴合部61的圆弧形半径，可以根据贴合层10在弯折到位后的最小半径来设置。即贴合部61的弯折半径，按照连接面11在弯折到位时的最小半径来设置。如图4显示，在支撑机构100弯折到位后，因为贴合部61的弯折半径与连接面11的弯折半径一致，使得贴合部61完全与连接面11贴合，磁铁60对贴合层10的支撑面积达到最大，支撑效果最好，且不会出现拐点。
贴合层10可以是整体成型的结构层，也可以由多层结构层叠构成。一种实施例继续参照图3，为了实现贴合层10与柔性显示屏200的贴合支撑功能，贴合层10设有滑动层12和支撑层13。滑动层12与柔性显示屏200通过光学胶等粘胶贴合。滑动层12与支撑层13在弯折段202内为滑动接触，即二者在弯折段202内未相互固定。滑动层12通常为镍基或铁基等材质的液态金属或常规金属，其弹性模量和拉伸强度能够适应柔性显示屏200的弯折拉伸，实现全方位的贴合。优选地，本实施例采用液态金属作为滑动层12的材料。本发明所称液态金属是指将合金加热到熔融态，然后以超快的冷却速度冷却，使合金晶格来不及有序排列结晶便固化，因为是非结晶状态，像玻璃，所以又被称为非晶合金、液态金属或金属玻璃。液态金属的特性是长程无序(短程有序)、亚稳态、一定程度上的物理特性各向同性、没有确切熔点、具有玻璃转化温度点等，具有固态、金属、玻璃的特性，可以在一定条件下具有高强度、高硬度、塑性、热传导和耐磨性等。也就是说，本发明所称的液态金属在常温实质上是固态的，只不过其某些特性接近液体，所以称之为液态金属，即液态金属为常温呈固态的非晶合金。支撑层13多为不锈钢等材质的金属薄板，也称为支撑金属片。滑动层12位于柔性显示屏200和支撑层13之间，贴合面101位于滑动层12上。由于液态金属本身硬度较低，并不足以支撑手指在柔性显示屏200上的按压，因此需要进一步增加一块硬度更高的固态金属作为支撑层13使用。进一步的，滑动层12还具有第一作用力发生元件010。在图1的实施例中，表现为滑动层12具有与贴合面101相对的磁吸面102，磁吸面12需要具备磁性或设有具备磁性的结构，才能实现滑动层12与磁铁60，即第二作用力发生元件020的相互吸附。而支撑层13需要选用含磁性的材料制备，连接面11位于支撑层13，因而磁铁60与支撑层13可以实现有效的相互吸附。当然，在其他的实施方式当中，也可以将滑动层12认为是贴合层10的一部分，而支撑层13不属于贴合层10的一部分，而是属于贴合层10与铰链30之间的另外一层结构。在这种情况下，连接面11及贴合面101均位于滑动层12上。
一种实施例，磁吸面102上设有磁粉，或其余具备磁性的金属粉末。磁粉或金属粉末可以通过粘胶等方式设置于磁吸面12上，磁铁60在靠近或接触到连接面11时，同时与磁吸面102之间也产生相互吸附的磁力。此时磁铁60同时吸附支撑层13和滑动层12，不仅保持了铰链30与贴合层10之间的距离，还保持了支撑层13和滑动层12之间的紧密贴合。
另一种实施例见图3，磁铁60穿过支撑层13与滑动层12之间的吸附可能 存在吸附力较弱的缺陷。由此在磁吸面102上通过焊接或粘胶的方式设置金属片15。金属片15穿过支撑层13与磁铁60发生吸附。在垂直于贴合面101的方向上，因为滑动层12与铰链30的吸附关系，滑动层12会持续对支撑层13施加压力，进而保证滑动层12与支撑层13之间的贴合。
图4的实施例可以看出，金属片15在弯折过程中与贴合部61的接触会因为弯折半径的差异而产生位移。当弯折半径差异较大时，贴合部61的弧顶部分可能滑出金属片15的长度范围。此时磁铁60虽不能与金属片15直接接触，但仍能保持与金属片15之间的吸附作用。另一方面，滑出金属片15长度范围的贴合部61，会与支撑层13发生接触。由此，如图3和图4所示，可以将金属片15在垂直于贴合面101方向上的尺寸设定为与支撑层13的尺寸一致，即金属片15在第一方向001上与支撑层13齐平。这样在贴合部61相对贴合层10滑动的过程中，当贴合部61从金属片15过渡到支撑层13上时，能够尽量平滑移动，避免贴合层10产生形状的突变，影响柔性显示屏200弯折时的顺滑程度。进一步的，贴合部61设置为圆弧形，也利于贴合部61相对于贴合层10的滑动。
对于支撑层13，其内部设有容许金属片15穿过的第一通孔131。第一通孔131位于金属片15的四周并收容金属片15。在铰链30弯折的过程中，金属片15与支撑层13之间也会因为弯折半径不同而产生位移。如果只通过金属片15与第一通孔131之间的弹性变形来补偿位移，可能会对金属片15或支撑层13造成一定的损害。为此，在第一通孔131的内壁与金属片15之间留有第一间隙01。第一间隙01可以在铰链30弯折的过程中提供金属片15相对于第一通孔131的位移空间，补偿位移量。
可以理解的，在图4的实施例中，弯折段202位于弯折半径最大的位置，此时第一间隙01在第一方向001上只需要相对位于金属片15的一侧即可实现位移补偿。在另一些使用情况下，弯折段202可能位于弯折半径最小的位置，即柔性显示屏200向内弯曲。此时第一通孔131的内壁需要相对于金属片15在第一方向001的另一侧也设置间隙01，才能为支撑层13和金属片15提供有效的位移补偿。
一种实施例见图3，铰链30包含多个相互铰接的链节31，各链节31之间活动连接而使得铰链30可弯折。多个相互铰接的链节31沿垂直于第一方向001的第二方向002上并排设置(需同时参阅图9)，第二方向002平行于贴合面101，从而在第一方向001和第二方向002上均对贴合层10提供支撑力。每个链节31都至少设有一个磁铁60，链节31通过磁铁60与贴合层10的配合来定位贴合层10与铰链30之间的相对距离。进而使得每一个链节31都能在柔性显示屏200弯折时与贴合层10一同支撑弯折段202。
实施例见图5及图8，为了加强铰链30对贴合层10的固持，支撑机构100还设有相互配合的固持件40和定位件32。固持件40连接于铰链30和贴合层10之间，在图5的实施例中，固持件40设置于贴合层10朝向承载层20的连接面11上。定位件32设置于链节31上，固持件40与铰链30在垂直于贴合面101的方向上与定位件32相互固持，以保持贴合层10与铰链30之间的相对距离固定。
图6为本实施例弯折后的形状图，具体的，贴合层10朝向承载层20的连接面11上设有固持件40，固持件40与铰链30上的定位件32相互固持，贴合层10在固持件40的作用下始终受到朝向铰链30的拉力，贴合层10与铰链30之间的相对位置得以被固定。这样的设置避免了两侧受冲击引起起翘的缺陷。固持件40与定位件32的配合，可以与磁铁60交错设置，两种连接方式共同配合以实现更好的连接效果。
需要提出的是，在图5和图6的实施例中，铰链30与贴合层10直接接触，以对贴合层10提供直接的支撑。但在其余一些实施例中，铰链30也可以与贴合层10之间架空，即二者之间设有间隙，或者二者之间设有其它的连接件，铰链30与贴合层10之间的固持通过磁铁60，以及固持件40与定位件32的配合来实现，即铰链30通过磁铁60、固持件40与定位件32的配合来实现对贴合层10的支撑和定位，同样可以实现本申请技术方案所要达到的技术效果。
一种实施例，固持件40在第一方向001上，相对于定位件32具有滑移空间，即固持件40可滑动地连接在铰链30和贴合层10之间。这样可以在贴合面10与铰链30之间位移较大时，避免只通过固持件40与定位件32之间的弹性变形来补偿位移，进而保护本申请支撑机构100的结构刚度和稳定性。
一种实施例见图7，图7为弯折段202处的细节示意图。固持件40固结于滑动层12，并穿过支撑层13与铰链30发生连接配合。具体的，固持件40可以通过焊接或粘胶的方式与滑动层12进行固结。支撑层13上同样通过第一通孔131来实现固持件40的通过。
一种实施例继续参照图7，固持件40包括连接端41。连接端41与滑动层12固连，第一通孔131位于连接端41的四周并收容连接端41。连接端41同样可以为液态金属，并通过焊接或粘胶的方式与滑动层12进行固结。通常的，对于铰链30与贴合层10相接触的实施例来说，需要铰链30与支撑层13发生接触，而避免连接端41与铰链30直接接触，从而保护连接端41不受摩擦，也可以保护滑动层12避免外力伤害。因此，连接端41在朝向铰链30的方向上，厚度需要小于支撑层13。由此，连接端41不仅在四周方向上收容于支撑层13中，其在高度方向上也收容于支撑层13中。进一步的，参见图8，在铰链30弯折的过程中，滑动层12与铰链30之间也会因为弯折半径不同而产生位移。相似的，为避免只通过固持件40与支撑层13之间的弹性变形来补偿位移，进而对固持件40或支撑层13可能造成的损害，在第一通孔131的内壁与连接端41之间也留有第一间隙01。第一间隙01可以在铰链30弯折的过程中提供连接端41相对于第一通孔131的位移空间，补偿位移量。
可以理解的，在图8的实施例中，第一通孔131的内壁需要相对于连接端41在第一方向001的两侧均设置间隙01，才能为支撑层13和连接端41提供有效的位移补偿。
另一种实施例参见图5，连接端41也可以设置于支撑层13背离柔性显示屏200的表面上，即贴合层10背离柔性显示屏200的连接面11。将连接端41通过焊接或粘胶的方式与连接面11固连，此时铰链30需要为连接端41提供收容空间，将固持件40收容于铰链30内。铰链30在朝向贴合层10一侧设有缺口 33，缺口33用于收容连接端41，并使得缺口33在第一方向001上相对于连接端41设有第四间隙04，第四间隙04为铰链30和收容于缺口33内的连接端41之间位移补偿。
链节进一步的，每个链节31都至少设一个定位件32与一个固持件40配合，进而使得每一个链节31都能在柔性显示屏200弯折时与固持件40一同支撑弯折段202。具体的，每个链节31上至少分布有一个定位件32，每个定位件32与一个固持件40的位置对应，链节31通过定位件32与固持件40的配合来定位贴合层10与铰链30之间的相对距离。
对于固持件40与定位件32的配合，可以采用的方式较多。具体的，参见图5的实施例，固持件40包括与连接端41相对的固持端42(见图6)。当连接端41与滑动层12固连时，固持端42被设置滑槽421。定位件32包括与滑槽421配合的滑块321，滑块321置于滑槽421中定位，并可相对于滑槽421做滑动。滑槽421包括延伸段4211和限位段4212。延伸段4211连接于连接端41和限位段4212之间，限位段4212提供一限位面4213。滑块321与限位面4213接触并配合，为固持件40提供朝向铰链30的拉力。可以理解的，滑块321可以与链节31设置为一体连接，进而简化结构。
滑块321还可以如图6所示，独立于链节31之外，穿过链节31连接到固持端42处。类似的设计不会影响本申请支撑机构100的方案实施，可以根据具体的结构需求来对滑槽421与滑块321的连接进行搭配。
另一方面，固持端42可以如图5所示，截面为L形；也可以如图6所示，截面为T形。可以理解的，当固持端42的截面为T形时，滑槽421与滑块321的配合能够同时适应柔性显示屏200的向内弯折和向外弯折，都能保证滑块321与限位面4213的接触面积。
需要提出的是，固持端42的限位面4213宜设置为平行于贴合面，方便滑块321的***，以及在柔性显示屏200弯折的过程中滑块321在第二方向002上可以均匀的与限位面4213发生接触，贴合层10的受力更均衡。
与上述相似的理由，请同时参看图5和图6，滑槽421和滑块321之间的配合留有第二间隙02。在铰链30随柔性显示屏200弯折的过程中，第二间隙02可以提供滑块321相对于滑槽421的位移空间。与第一间隙01的情况相似，第二间隙02在第一方向001上宜设置于滑块321的两侧，从而适应柔性显示屏200不同方向的弯折动作。
图5的滑动层12通过磁力吸附于铰链30上，金属片15与磁铁60之间的磁力吸附可以确保在垂直于贴合面101的方向上滑动层12与铰链30之间的距离固定，并且可以确保在第一方向001上滑动层12与铰链30之间可相对滑动。并且，支撑层13与铰链30之间也通过固持件40与定位件32的配合连接，通过固持件40与定位件32的配合，使得支撑层13与铰链30在垂直于贴合面101的方向上的距离也被固定，并在第一方向001上可相对滑动。因此，滑动层12及支撑层13均被滑动固定于铰链30上，从而防止滑动层12或支撑层13与铰链30分离而产生不可控的拱起现象。
另一种实施例见图7，链节31在对应固持端42的位置设有第二通孔311。 定位件32伸入第二通孔311与固持端42螺纹连接。可以理解的，定位件32可以为螺栓322，固持端42包含与螺栓322配合的螺孔422，固持端42伸入第二通孔311中与螺栓322螺纹连接，从而实现固持件40与铰链30的定位。当然，定位件32也可以被设置为螺孔形状，固持端42为与螺孔匹配的螺杆，固持端42穿过第二通孔311与定位件32实现螺纹连接。
同样的，第二通孔311的内壁与固持端42之间、以及第二通孔311内壁与定位件32之间留有第三间隙03。在铰链30随柔性显示屏200弯折的过程中，第三间隙03用于提供第二通孔311的内壁相对于固持端42、以及第二通孔311相对于定位件32的位移空间。具体第三间隙03为第二通孔311的内壁与固持端42或定位件32之间的间隙，取决于螺孔结构设置于固持端42或定位件32中。即固持端42为螺孔422时，第三间隙03为第二通孔311的内壁与固持端42之间的间隙；当定位件32为螺孔结构时，第三间隙03为第二通孔311的内壁与定位件32之间的间隙。相似的原理，第三间隙03在第一方向上宜设置于定位件32或固持端42的两侧，以适应柔性显示屏200不同方向的弯折动作。
请继续参见图7，链节31包括背离贴合层10的平面312。第二通孔311的内壁与平面312交接形成开口313。定位件32包括远离固持件40的卡持端323。卡持端323卡持于平面312上，为定位件32提供支撑，得以对固持件40提供朝向铰链30方向上的拉力。为此，卡持端323在开口313上的投影需要至少部分超出开口313，保证卡持端323与平面312存在有效的接触面来提供拉力。
一种实施例，铰链30在随弯折段202反复弯折变形的过程中，定位件32与平面312会反复摩擦挤压。长时间的摩擦挤压作用容易造成定位件32或平面312的磨损，进而影响定位件32的定位效果。为此，在卡持端323与平面312之间设有弹性垫片314，用于减缓卡持端323与平面312之间的摩擦，提供缓冲。
铰链30位于承载层20中，承载层20远离贴合层10的一侧可能设有其余结构例如背壳50。当卡持端323伸出链节31时，卡持端323可能与承载层20的其余结构发生干涉摩擦。为此，一种实施例，将平面312设置为凹陷于链节31内部，以使得卡持端323至少部分收容于链节31的内部。当然，图7的实施例中卡持端323完全收容于链节31内部，可以完全避免卡持端323与其余结构的摩擦现象。
请参见图9，图9为贴合层10在本实施例下的展开示意图，观测方向为承载层20朝向柔性显示屏200的方向。在图9的实施例中，多个链节31的轴线315均沿第二方向002延伸，第二方向002垂直于第一方向001。在第二方向002上，每个链节31均沿各自轴线315配合设多个磁铁60和多个定位件32。可以理解的，对于贴合层10设有金属片15的实施例来说，对于单个链节31上的磁铁60，其数量与单个链节31所配合的金属片15的数量相同；相应的，对于单个链节31上的定位件32，其数量与单个链节31所配合的固持件40的数量也相同。即在单个链节31上，每一个磁铁60各自与一个金属片15配合，且每一个定位件32各自与一个固持件40配合，从而在第二方向002上加强单个链节31与贴合层10之间的连接强度，避免柔性显示屏200在第二方向002上受力不均而翘起。
当然，在贴合层10不设金属片15，而在磁吸面102上设磁粉或磁性金属粉的实施例来说，只需要将单个链节31上的定位件32数量与固持件40数量设置为相同，磁铁60通过直接吸附贴合层10也可以达到相似的固持效果。
一种实施例，对于设有金属片15的贴合层10，相邻两个链节31上的磁铁60或定位件32沿第一方向001交错设置。即每个链节31上的任意一个磁铁60或定位件32在第一方向001上均与相邻链节31上的磁铁60或定位件32错开设置。从图8可以看出，当相邻两个链节31上的磁铁60或定位件32沿第一方向001交错设置时，支撑层13上的第一通孔131也沿第一方向001呈交错的形状布置。这样的设计会使得固态金属13上的相邻开孔之间的距离更大，且在第一方向001上相邻的两个第一通孔131不会位于同一延长线上。第一通孔131在支撑层13上的分散排布，有利于提高支撑层13自身的强度，避免开孔过于聚拢而造成的应力集中现象，延长了支撑层13的使用寿命，提高了本申请支撑机构100的可靠性。
可以理解地，当一个链节31上的固持件40及定位件32用于锁固滑动层12与铰链时，相邻的一个链节31上的固持件40及定位件32可以用来锁固支撑层13与铰链30，或者相邻的一个链节31通过磁铁60来与滑动层12形成吸附。由此，通过这种交替分布的锁固结构，使得整体的固持力更加均匀的分布，避免局部受力过大。
一种实施例，滑动层12和铰链30之间夹持有支撑层13。滑动层12为铁基的液态金属，支撑层13为片状金属。滑动层12通过磁力吸附于铰链30上，滑动层12与磁铁60之间的磁力吸附可以确保在垂直于贴合面101的方向上滑动层12与铰链30之间的距离固定，并且可以确保在第一方向001上滑动层12与铰链30之间可相对滑动。进一步，支撑层13与铰链30之间也通过固持件40与定位件32的配合连接，通过固持件40与定位件32的配合，使得支撑层13与铰链30在垂直于贴合面101的方向上的距离也被固定，在第一方向001上可相对滑动。因此，滑动层12及支撑层13均被滑动固定于铰链30上，从而防止滑动层12或支撑层13与铰链30分离而产生不可控的拱起现象。
另一种实施例，滑动层12采用铁基的液态金属制备，磁铁60穿过支撑层13与滑动层12产生相互吸附的磁力。此时并不需要在支撑层13上开设第一通孔131以放置金属片15，支撑层13通过滑动层12和磁铁60的上下夹持而被固定。且支撑层13在被夹持时依然可以相对于铰链30稳定的滑动和保持接触。进一步的，支撑层13也采用具备磁性的金属材料制成，支撑层13与磁铁60也产生相互吸附的磁力，即滑动层12和支撑层13分别与磁铁60相互吸附以保持相对位置和接触，并随铰链30的弯折稳定滑动，可以起到更好的固定效果。
对于柔性显示屏200，由于有了本申请支撑机构100的上述技术方案支持，只要弯折段202对应的位置处为铰链30和贴合层10配合提供支撑，可以任意设置弯折段202在第一方向001上与柔性显示屏200总长度的占比。即柔性显示屏200在第一方向001上可以一端为非弯折段203，另一端为弯折段202，进而形成一端可卷曲的柔性显示屏200；柔性显示屏200也可以两端均为非弯折段203，两端的非弯折段203中间由一段弯折段202连接，以形成可折叠式的柔性 显示屏200(如图1)；还有一种实施方式，柔性显示屏200在第一方向001上全部为弯折段202，整个柔性显示屏200因为本申请支撑机构100的可靠支撑而形成卷轴式的柔性显示屏200。配合不同的显示图像设置，配备了本申请支撑机构100的柔性显示屏200可以实现丰富的显示效果。
另一方面，柔性显示屏200在带动支撑机构100弯折时，可以位于弯折半径较大的一侧，也可以位于弯折半径较小的一侧。此时铰链30内相邻两链节31需要能够实现正时针或逆时针双向的相对转动。铰链30还可以采用带自定位功能的铰链，配合本申请支撑机构100的有效支撑，柔性显示屏200可以弯折为类似S的形状，进一步的还可以实现波浪形弯折。
请看回图1，在第一方向001上，柔性显示屏200位于贴合层10轮廓范围之内，或与贴合层10齐平。由此贴合层10可以在柔性显示屏200弯折的过程中始终对整个柔性显示屏200提供支撑。进一步的，承载层20的长度大于贴合层10的长度，且承载层20在第一方向001上收容贴合层10。由于贴合层10相对于承载层20较薄，贴合层10适于在弯折的过程中始终与柔性显示屏200贴合，进而支撑柔性显示屏200。而承载层20相对较厚，承载层20自身刚度较大，得以为贴合层10提供足够的支撑力，从而支撑柔性显示屏200。进一步的，承载层20还可以起到为整个柔性显示屏200提供刚性支撑的作用，避免柔性显示屏200受外力时发生形变。在承载层20于第一方向001上收容贴合层10时，承载层20沿第一方向001的相对两边分别连接并固定于贴合层10的相对两边，从而对贴合层10和柔性显示屏200实现完全的收容和保护。
参见图10，贴合层10在第一方向001上包括第一端14，承载层20在第一方向001上包括第二端21，且第一端14和第二端21在第一方向001上相对于铰链30位于同一侧。第一端14和第二端21之间接触并固定，第二端21需要设置为沿第一方向001可弹性滑动。
一种实施例，承载层20在第二端21处包括连接部22、伸缩部23和牵引部24。其中连接部22与第一端14固定连接，牵引部24与铰链30连接，伸缩部23弹性连接于牵引部24和连接部22之间。
在图10的实施例中，牵引部24设有沿第一方向001延伸的导轨241，连接部22为与导轨241配合的导块221，伸缩部23为弹性件。可以理解的，位于第二端21处的牵引部24为固定不可弯折的结构，以便于提供形状固定的导轨241。而导块221随着弯折段202的弯折，沿第一方向001在导轨241中自由活动(见图11)，进而补偿柔性显示屏200相对于支撑机构100的长度位移。由于伸缩部23为弹性件，如弹簧等，导块221的位移始终在弹力牵引下保持恢复原状的趋势，使得柔性显示屏200在解除弯折并展开的状态下导块221可以恢复原位。
一种实施例见图12，伸缩部23包括多个沿第一方向001弹性连接的支杆231。具体的，多个支杆231平行于贴合面101，且多个支杆231均垂直于第一方向001，相邻两个支杆231之间通过至少一个弹簧232连接，弹簧232的弹力方向平行于第一方向001。图12为支撑机构100展开状态的示意图，可以看到多个支杆231之间因为弹簧232的作用，多个支杆231呈等距排列。伸缩部23的伸缩距离总和，同伸缩部23为单个的弹性件实施例的伸缩距离总和相同。但 等距排列的支杆231，可以在柔性显示屏200相对于承载层20的“位移差P”范围内，对贴合层10实现更好的支撑效果。相对于图10的状态，导块221的滑移造成“位移差P”范围内贴合层10没有受到任何支撑，贴合层10处于悬空状态。此时“位移差P”范围所对应的柔性显示屏200因为缺乏支撑，刚度较差，在外力冲击下容易受损。而在本实施例中，因为多个支杆231的等距分布，在“位移差P”范围内对贴合层10的支撑更均匀，柔性显示屏200的悬空部分由一大段变成了若干等距分布的小段，因而刚度得以增加，不易因外力而遭受损害。
可以理解的，图12的实施例，可以配合多种连接部22和牵引部24的结构组合，并不限于导轨241和导块221的实施方式。在图12的实施例中，连接部22和牵引部24均为直板结构，由多个支杆231和弹簧232组成的伸缩部23分别与连接部22和牵引部24连接，同样可以达到上述实施例所要实现的效果。进一步的，为了限制相邻两支杆231之间的弹性连接自由度，保持伸缩部23仅沿第一方向001延伸，相邻的支杆231之间还可以通过多连杆结构进行活动连接。
需要提出的是，对比图10和图12的两种实施例，支撑层13在两种实施例中的结构不同。因为支撑层13的两侧分别与滑动层12和承载层20贴合支撑，在连接部22伸缩补偿的过程中，支撑层13可以如图10的实施例一样，分为固定部131和滑动部132，其中固定部131固定于铰链30上而可相对滑动层12滑动，滑动部132固定于连接部22上而随连接部22一同伸缩补偿。支撑层13也可以如图12所示，其整段为固定结构，整段支撑层13连接于滑动层12上，连接部22相对于支撑层13滑动，进而对贴合层10提供支撑。两种实施例均可应用于本申请支撑机构100中。
在图11的实施例中，柔性显示屏200包括第一固定段2031和第二固定段2032，弯折段202连接于第一固定段2031和第二固定段2032之间。相应的，在承载层20中，牵引部24也包括第一连接板242和第二连接板243，第一连接板242与第一固定段2031在第一方向001上位于铰链30的同一侧。此时柔性显示屏200呈可折叠状，用户在观测显示时可以将柔性显示屏200展开，此时柔性显示屏的观测面积更大，便于提供更多的画面信息。用户在携带时可以将柔性显示屏200折叠，此时柔性显示屏200占用的面积更小，便于携带。
进一步地，在图11中，由于带有牵引部24的位移补偿机构是位于铰链30的左侧，在柔性显示屏200的弯折段202弯折过程中，弯折段202越靠近牵引部24的位置相对铰链30所移动的距离也越多，移动的距离同样体现在固持件40与定位件32上。即各固持件40与支撑层13之间靠近牵引部24的间隙01，沿着朝向牵引部24的方向，宽度逐渐减小。同样地，间隙02、03、04的宽度变化与间隙01的宽度变化相同。
在图1的实施例中，支撑机构100还包括背壳50。背壳50位于承载层20远离贴合层10的一侧，用于覆盖并密封承载层20。可以理解的，承载层20因为设有铰链30，支撑机构100使得在整体外观上不够统一。在加入背壳50后，背壳50可以遮盖位于承载层20内的众多结构件，使得支撑机构100的外观一 致性更好。相应的，背壳50需要设置柔性段51，柔性段51的位置与铰链30的位置对应，柔性段51为可弯折的材料制成，或设有可弯折的内部连接机构，进而柔性段51能够随铰链30的弯折而产生适应性的形变，保证背壳50对承载层20内部结构的覆盖和密封。可以理解的，背壳50还可以同时覆盖并密封承载层20和贴合层10。
本申请还涉及包括上述支撑机构100和柔性显示屏200的柔性显示装置300。其中支撑机构100需要设置于柔性显示屏200的背面。可以理解的，柔性显示装置300在上述支撑机构100和上述柔性显示屏200的配合下，弯折过程中具备更好的一致性和支撑强度，避免了因为两侧受挤压而造成的柔性显示屏200从支撑机构100上翘起等不良现象，因而本申请柔性显示装置300得以获得更高的可靠性和弯折能力，在生产过程中也获得了更高的良品率。
参见图13和图14，本申请所涉及的屏幕组件400，包括有柔性显示屏200、固定贴合于柔性显示屏200背面201的滑动层12、支撑滑动层12的形变机构70及磁铁60。柔性显示屏200全贴合固定于滑动层12上。磁铁60产生将滑动层12与形变机构70相互拉近的作用力，进而使得滑动层12与形变机构70保持相互靠近的状态。需要提出的是，形变机构70可以采用上述的支撑机构100，利用铰链30来完成弯折动作。同时形变机构70也可以如图13的实施例一样，采用诸如弹性带等机构来实现弯折动作。相应的，磁铁60设置于形变机构70上，用以与滑动层12配合，来实现滑动层12与形变机构70的相互靠近。相应的，滑动层12朝向形变机构70的一侧设有磁粉，或设有具备磁性的金属片15，滑动层12通过磁粉或金属片15来与磁铁60产生吸附力，具体可参见上述各实施例。
一种实施例，柔性显示屏200包括可弯折的弯折段202，弯折段202弯曲时滑动层12相对形变机构70滑动。可以理解的，由于柔性显示屏200与滑动层12、形变机构70在弯折过程中的半径差，滑动层12会与形变机构70产生位移。通过滑动层12与形变机构70的滑动设置，可以避免因为位移差而造成的滑动层12形变。因为磁铁60与滑动层12的作用力为可滑动的吸附力，因此通过对磁铁60磁力的控制，以及磁铁60与滑动层12接触面积的控制，可以有效的控制滑动层12相对于形变机构70的吸附力，进而实现滑动层12弯曲时相对于形变机构70的滑动动作。
磁铁60需要至少位于弯折段202的轮廓范围内。进而在弯折段202弯折时能够对滑动层12与形变机构70在弯折段202内提供固持，避免滑动层12与形变机构70分离而翘起。
由于弯折段202在弯曲时滑动层12相对于形变机构70朝向第一方向001滑动，一种实施例中，本申请屏幕组件400沿第一方向001排列有多个磁铁60。多个磁铁60分布于弯折段202轮廓范围之内，从而保证整个弯折段202轮廓范围内的滑动层12与形变机构70产生更为均匀的吸附力。
一种实施例，屏幕组件400还包括设于滑动层12下方的支撑层13，支撑层13位于滑动层12与形变机构70之间，用于承载滑动层12。可以理解的，支撑层13的弹性模量需要低于滑动层12的弹性模量，支撑层13的硬度也高于滑动 层12的硬度，才能提供更好的支撑效果。一种实施例，滑动层12为非晶合金，支撑层13为钢片。进一步的，为了使得支撑层13对滑动层12提供更贴合的支撑，设置支撑层13与柔性显示屏200的弹性模量之差大于滑动层12与柔性显示屏200的弹性模量之差。屏幕组件400在弯折的过程中，支撑层13始终与滑动层12滑动贴合，且不会使得滑动层出现翘起的现象。
对于滑动层12设有金属片15的实施例，见图14，当屏幕组件400还设有支撑层13时，金属片15需要穿过支撑层13与磁铁60发生吸附。弯折段202弯曲时滑动层12会相对于支撑层13形成位移，为了避免支撑层13相对于滑动层12的位移挤压金属片15，支撑层13需要与金属片15间隙设置。进一步的，如图14所示，在弯折段202弯曲时，金属片15与支撑层13之间的间隙宽度沿着第一方向001逐渐增大。固定于形变机构70上的磁铁60与金属片15的吸附位置产生位移，且磁铁60和金属片15之间的位移量也沿第一方向001逐渐增大。相对位移的磁铁60和金属片15之间的吸附力依然存在，可以对滑动层12持续提供朝向形变机构70保持靠近的拉力。
如上述的实施例，本申请形变机构70中还可以包含固持件40和定位件32，固持件40固定于滑动层12或支撑层13，与固持件40相对的定位件32连接于形变机构70。可以理解的，金属片15与支撑层13之间可以形成间隙，固持件40和定位件32也与支撑层13以及形变机构70形成间隙，以便于滑动层12相对支撑层13和形变机构70滑动。
上述支撑机构100的实施例中已经提到，固持件40与定位件32滑动连接的实施例(参看图5)，可以由定位件32固定于形变机构70上，经由固持件40和定位件32之间的滑动连接来实现；也可以由定位件32滑动连接于形变机构70，固持件40与定位件32固定连接的实施例(参看图7)来实现。进一步的，在图13和图14的实施例中，固持件40可以固定于滑动层12上，然后穿过支撑层13而连接于形变机构70。固持件40也可以直接固定于支撑层13上，然后连接于形变机构70。
本申请涉及的柔性显示屏200可以是柔性触摸屏或柔性显示屏，包括但不限于液晶显示(Liquid Crystal Display,LCD)面板、量子点显示(Quantum Dot Light Emitting Diodes,QLED)面板、电子纸(E-paper Display,EPD)、触摸屏(Touch panel)、柔性太阳能电池(Page View,PV)板、射频标签(Radio Frequency Identification,RFID)等具有显示功能的产品或部件。相应的，本申请涉及的柔性显示装置300，包括但不限于手机、平板电脑、显示器、液晶面板、OLED面板、电视、智能手表、VR头戴显示器、车载显示器等其它任何具有显示功能的产品和部件。
以上所述的实施方式，并不构成对该技术方案保护范围的限定。任何在上述实施方式的精神和原则之内所作的修改、等同替换和改进等，均应包含在该技术方案的保护范围之内。
