The folding device is locked and kept at the target angle opened and closed by the clutch mechanism. The clutch mechanism may be a memory alloy, a motor-controlled locking structure, an electromagnetic switch or the like. The angle of the memory alloy can be used to set the folding angle of the folding device with a higher frequency, and the folding device can be stabilized at the set folding angle through the memory alloy. Through the locking structure controlled by the motor, or through the electromagnetic switch, the folding shaft of the folding device is fixed at the controlled folding angle, which is convenient for the user to use the folding device reliably.

Within the first predetermined period of time, the opening and closing angle is maintained by the damping mechanism. Within the first predetermined period, the user can manually adjust the folding angle, which facilitates the variety of angle adjustment of the folding device. After the first predetermined period of time, the folding angle after opening and closing can be locked by the clutch mechanism, or the folding angle after being manually adjusted by the locking card. After the folding angle is locked, the operation information of the detected first operation can be used to cancel the locking of the folding angle by the clutch mechanism, and the opening and closing angle control operation of the folding device can be performed by the driving mechanism.
