Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of electronic equipment, in particular to a connecting mechanism, electronic equipment and a connecting method of a flexible screen.
Background
With the development of science and technology, users have higher and higher requirements for the use of electronic products, which leads to more and more diversified functions of the electronic products, and many new forms of electronic products, such as notebook computers and mobile phones with flexible screens, are produced.
The flexible screen refers to a display screen capable of being bent, and is mainly characterized in that the flexible screen can be bent along with the turning of electronic equipment, so that the performance of an electronic product is further optimized. However, the flexible screen has the characteristic of being not stretchable, that is, the flexible screen cannot bear the compressive force or the tensile force, otherwise the flexible screen is damaged, and therefore, it is required to ensure that the components connected with the flexible screen on the electronic product do not apply the compressive force and the tensile force to the flexible screen to cause the flexible screen to generate the compressive wrinkles or to be stretched and deformed when in work.
However, in the prior art, the quality or form of the electronic device with the flexible screen is not very ideal, mainly because the flexible screen is not well combined with the rigid component on the electronic device, and when the flexible screen is applied to the electronic device capable of being opened and closed in a turning manner, the rigid component can apply a compressive force or a tensile force to the flexible screen stuck on the flexible screen when the electronic device is opened and closed in the turning manner, so that the flexible screen is easily damaged, and the quality of the product is seriously affected. If the flexible screen is applied to the electronic equipment with a fixed form, the flexible screen can only be used statically in a 3D mode, for example, a smart phone with a certain bending radian exists in the market at present, the flexible screen can always work in a fixed form by the application mode, the advantage that the flexible screen can be bent and deformed cannot be fully played, and the use of the flexible screen loses the value of the flexible screen.
Therefore, how to further optimize the connection manner between the flexible screen and the rigid component, so as to improve the working performance of the electronic device, has become a problem to be solved by those skilled in the art.

a flexible member laid over the first and second portions and capable of flexing with the first and/or second portions flipped over.
Preferably, in the electronic device, the first portion and the second portion are connected by a hinge, the elastic body covers one side of the hinge and is bonded to outer side surfaces of the first portion and the second portion, and the first portion and the second portion are moved relative to the hinge by being pulled by the elastic body.
Preferably, in the electronic device, two opposite edges of the flexible member located at two sides of the rotation axis are respectively bonded to the first portion and the second portion.
Preferably, the electronic device further includes a protective member covering the flexible member and connected to the first portion and the second portion.
Preferably, in the electronic device, the flexible member is a flexible screen.
A method of mounting a flexible screen, comprising the steps of:
1) laying an elastomer on a first part and a second part of a first layer, such that the elastomer forms a second layer and the elastomer is fixedly connected to the first part and the second part by pretensioning;
2) laying a flexible screen as a third layer on the elastic body, and connecting two opposite edges of the flexible screen with the first portion and the second portion, respectively.
Preferably, the method for mounting a flexible screen further includes: covering a protective body on the flexible screen, a peripheral edge of the protective body being connected to the first portion and the second portion to form a fourth layer.

When the first part and the second part are transformed from the unfolding state of 180 degrees to the closing state of 0 degrees, namely the first part is turned to the second part to be close, the elastic bodies arranged on the outer surfaces of the first part and the second part are deformed, the stretching degree of the elastic bodies is gradually increased, and meanwhile, the flexible part is bent. In this process, since the elastic body is in a stretched state before, the force (pulling force) applied to the elastic body and the flexible member by the first portion being turned over with respect to the second portion is largely or even entirely shared by the elastic body, while the flexible member is subjected to only a small force or no force at all. When the first part and the second part are converted from the 0-degree closed state to the 180-degree unfolded state, the restoring force of the elastic body can pull the first part and the second part to be unfolded, and the stress of the flexible part is avoided in the process.

Detailed Description
The invention provides a novel connecting mechanism, which can obviously reduce the acting force applied to a flexible part after the flexible part is connected with a rigid part of electronic equipment, thereby improving the working performance of the electronic equipment.
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
As shown in fig. 1 to 6, the connection mechanism provided by the embodiment of the present invention mainly includes an elastic body 1 and a flexible member 4. When the flexible component 4 is mounted on the first part 2 and the second part 3 which can be turned over and opened and closed by using the connecting mechanism, the elastic body 1 is required to be arranged on the outer side surfaces of the first part 2 and the second part 3, so that the elastic body 1 can apply tension to the first part 2 and the second part 3, namely, the elastic body 1 is in a pre-tensioned state when being arranged on the first part 2 and the second part 3, and the flexible component 4 is laid on the first part 2 and the second part 3 and bends along with the relative turning of the first part 2 and the second part 3. In the present application, the outer side particularly refers to the surface formed by the entire wall surface of the first part 2 and the second part 3 which is on the outside when the first part 2 and the second part 3 are in the closed or bent state, as shown in fig. 5. The fact that the elastic body 1 is arranged on the whole outer side surface means that the elastic body 1 is distributed on the outer side surface of the corresponding part of the first part 2 and the second part 3.
When the electronic device is subjected to an external force to make the first part 2 and the second part 3 of the electronic device transition from the unfolded state of 180 degrees as shown in fig. 4 to the closed state of 0 degrees as shown in fig. 5, that is, when the first part 2 and the second part 3 are relatively rotated, the elastic body 1 on the outer side of the first part 2 and the second part 3 is stretched to a greater extent as one or both of the first part 2 and the second part 3 is turned, and at the same time, the flexible part 4 is bent, because the stretching degree of the elastic body 1 is greater than that of the flexible part 4, the forces applied to the resilient body 1 and the flexible member 4 when the first portion 2 and the second portion 3 are inverted relative to each other, are more taken up by the resilient body 1, and the flexible part 4 is stressed little or not, so that the elastic body 1 protects the flexible part 4 and prevents the flexible part 4 from being damaged by stretching. When the first part 2 and the second part 3 are transformed from the closed state of 0 degree as shown in fig. 5 to the unfolded state of 180 degrees as shown in fig. 4, because the elastic body 1 is in a stretching state, when the first part 2 and the second part 3 are relatively reversely overturned, the restoring force of the elastic body 1 becomes the motive force for overturning the first part 2 and the second part 3, and in the process, the first part 2, the second part 3 and the elastic body 1 do not exert force on the flexible component 4, so that the flexible component 4 cannot be damaged by stretching or compression. Therefore, the flexible part 4 is not damaged by force during the whole process of turning the electronic device to open and close.
During the above-mentioned transition from the unfolded state to the closed state, i.e. during the relative rotation of the first part 2 and the second part 3, the first part 2 and/or the second part 3, while being turned over, it will also displace a small amount with respect to the axis of rotation 6, away from the axis of rotation 6, and this change in displacement will also cause the first portion 2 and/or the second portion 3 to stretch the elastomer 1 and the flexible part 4, the elastomer 1 and the flexible part 4 will thus also be subjected to forces, but since the elastomer 1 is connected to both the first part 2 and the second part 3, the force generated by the first part 2 and the second part 3, whether it is reversed or changed in displacement, is applied to the elastic body 1, the elastic body 1 thus bears the combined forces of the first portion 2 and the second portion 3, which are generated by the overturning and the displacement.
The connection mechanism provided by the embodiment shares the acting force applied to the flexible part 4 when the first part 2 and the second part 3 of the electronic device are turned over and opened by arranging the elastic body 1, so that the flexible part 4 is not stressed any more or only stressed by a small force, the damage probability of the flexible part 4 is reduced, and the working performance and the product quality of the electronic device are improved.
In order to further optimize the technical solution, the connection mechanism provided in this embodiment further includes a protective body 5 covering the flexible component 4 and connected to the first portion 2 and the second portion 3, as shown in fig. 4. Because its self intensity of flexible part 4 is relatively poor, in case receive to collide with or scratch, cause the harm to it very easily, so in order to improve flexible part 4's work security, preferably cover on flexible part 4 and paste protective body 5, avoid flexible part 4 direct and external contact to the working life of flexible part 4 has been guaranteed.
Specifically, the protective member 5 is preferably a transparent film having a peripheral edge portion bonded to the first portion 2 and the second portion 3, and as shown in fig. 4, a portion indicated by a grid line in the drawing is preferably a portion where the protective member 5 is bonded to the first portion 2 and the second portion 3. In this embodiment, the connection mechanism is used to connect the flexible component 4 to the rigid component of the electronic device, the flexible component 4 may be a flexible screen or a back plate of the flexible screen, and when the protection body 5 does not affect the protection of the back plate, in order to enable the protection body 5 to meet the protection requirement of the flexible screen, the protection body 5 is preferably a transparent film in this embodiment, so as to avoid affecting the normal display of the flexible screen. The peripheral edge of the protective member 5 is preferably bonded to the first portion 2 and the second portion 3, because the securing of the protective member 5 to the first portion 2 and the second portion 3 can be improved, and more importantly, the protective effect on the flexible member 4 can be improved. Of course, on the premise of not affecting the normal protection of the flexible component 4, the elastic body 1 may also be provided in a manner of being connected with the first portion 2 and the second portion 3 respectively only through two opposite edges, which is not limited in this embodiment. More specifically, the protective member 5 is preferably a film made of a PET film, a PVC film, a TPU film, or other materials.
In this embodiment, the elastic body 1 is preferably a sheet-like elastic film between the flexible member 4 and the first portion 2, and between the flexible member 4 and the second portion 3, i.e. the elastic body 1 is disposed between the first portion 2 and the second portion 3 of the first layer, and the flexible member 4 of the third layer, and the elastic body 1 is the second layer, as shown in fig. 2 to 5. By adopting the arrangement mode, the area of the elastic body 1 can be increased as much as possible, the elastic body can be stretched to a greater degree and bear more tensile force, and a laminated structure can be formed by the elastic body, the first part 2, the second part 3 and the flexible component 4, so that the protection effect on the flexible component 4 is obviously improved. Besides, the elastic body 1 may be a strip-shaped elastic film located at the side of the flexible member 4, as shown in fig. 6. This arrangement can also allow the elastic body 1 to share the force applied to the flexible member 4 when the first portion 2 and the second portion 3 are reversed, but this arrangement is inferior to the stacked arrangement in terms of protection, and therefore is considered to be a secondary candidate. Specifically, the elastic body 1 is a TPU film, a silicone film, a rubber film, or the like.
In the present embodiment, the flexible member 4 is preferably adhered to the first and second portions 2 and 3 by an adhesive material having elasticity. When one or both of the first part 2 and the second part 3 rotates from 180 degrees to 0 degrees relative to the rotating shaft 6, due to manufacturing errors and assembly errors, the first part 2 and/or the second part 3 not only turns over relative to the rotating shaft 6, but also displaces relative to the rotating shaft 6, and the displacement can stretch the flexible component 4 to damage the flexible component 4, so in order to avoid the situation, the embodiment selects to adopt a specific elastic pasting material to paste the flexible component 4 on the first part 2 and the second part 3, and compensates for the displacement through deformation of the pasting material, so that the flexible component 4 is not stretched to avoid damage, and the installation reliability of the flexible component 4 is further improved. Specifically, the sticking material is common double-sided adhesive tape, glue and the like on the market.
Based on the above-mentioned connection mechanism, the present embodiment further provides an electronic device, which includes the connection mechanism, and the first portion 2 and the second portion 3 that are connected in a flip manner, wherein the connection mechanism includes: an elastic body 1 provided on an outer side surface of the first part 2 and the second part 3 (the outer side surface here also refers to a surface formed by a wall surface on which the first part 2 and the second part 3 are on the outside when the first part 2 and the second part 3 are in the closed or bent state, as shown in fig. 5), the elastic body 1 applying a tensile force to the first part 2 and the second part 3; a flexible member 4 laid over the first and second portions 2, 3 and capable of bending upon inversion of the first and/or second portions 2, 3.
When mounting the flexible part 4 onto rigid parts (rigid parts refer to the first part 2 and the second part 3) of an electronic device, the elastomer 1 to be pre-tensioned is arranged on the first part 2 and the second part 3, so that the elastomer 1 can apply a tensile force to the first part 2 and the second part 3, and the flexible part 4 is also laid on the first part 2 and the second part 3, so that the flexible part 4 can be bent with the relative inversion of the first part 2 and the second part 3. In the relative overturning process of the first part 2 and the second part 3, as the stretching degree of the elastic body 1 is greater than that of the flexible part 4, most of acting force applied to the elastic body 1 and the flexible part 4 when the first part 2 and the second part 3 rotate relatively is borne by the elastic body 1, so that the elastic body 1 plays a role in protecting the flexible part 4, the damage probability of the flexible part 4 is reduced, and further, the electronic equipment connected with the flexible part 4 through the connecting mechanism can better realize the matching of the flexible part 4 and a rigid part, and the working reliability is ensured.
As shown in fig. 1-6, the first part 2 and the second part 3 are preferably connected by a rotating shaft 6, the elastic body 1 covers one side of the rotating shaft 6 and is adhered to the outer side surfaces of the first part 2 and the second part 3, and the first part 2 and the second part 3 realize the movement relative to the rotating shaft 6 under the pulling of the elastic body 1. The first part 2 and the second part 3 of the electronic equipment are connected through the rotating shaft 6, so that the electronic equipment such as a notebook computer, a mobile phone and the like can be turned over and opened and closed. The elastic body 1 is specifically arranged in a manner of being laid and fixedly adhered on the first part 2 and the second part 3, and spanning the rotating shaft 6, the elastic body 1 covers one side of the rotating shaft 6 (the side specifically refers to the outer side of the rotating shaft 6, and also refers to the outer side of the first part 2 and the second part 3, as shown in fig. 5), and the elastic body 1 is preferably always adhered to but not connected to the rotating shaft 6, so that the protection effect of the elastic body 1 on the flexible part 4 is more prominent. Meanwhile, when the first part 2 and the second part 3 are transformed from the closed state shown in fig. 5 to the unfolded state shown in fig. 4, the elastic body 1 is attached to the rotating shaft 6 but not fixedly connected, so that the elastic body 1 can provide power for the relative rotation and movement of the first part 2 and the second part 3.
More preferably, two opposite edges of the flexible member 4 on both sides of the rotating shaft 6 are respectively bonded to the first portion 2 and the second portion 3, as shown in fig. 3 and 4, wherein the portion marked with the inclined line segment is the bonding portion of the flexible member 4 to the first portion 2 and the second portion 3. In the present embodiment, it is preferable that only two edges of the flexible member 4 are bonded to the first portion 2 and the second portion 3, respectively, so that the flexibility of bending of the flexible screen can be ensured, and the force applied to the flexible member 4 when the first portion 2 and the second portion 3 rotate can be reduced to some extent. The width of the edge is such that sufficient connection strength can be secured without the flexible member 4 falling off when subjected to an applied force. Of course, if the above factors are not taken into consideration, the entire portion of the flexible member 4 in contact with the first portion 2 and the second portion 3 may be adhered to the first portion 2 and the second portion 3.
Similarly, the electronic device provided in the present embodiment is also provided with the protective body 5 covering the flexible member 4, and the protective body 5 is also attached to the first portion 2 and the second portion 3 by bonding the peripheral edges thereof. The arrangement, structure and function of the protective body 5 have been described in the foregoing, and are not described in detail herein.
In this embodiment, the flexible component 4 is preferably a flexible screen, that is, the aforementioned connection mechanism is a connection mechanism of a screen, and the aforementioned electronic device is an electronic device mounted with a flexible screen. Of course, the flexible member 4 may also be other members, such as a back plate of a flexible screen, etc.
In addition, as shown in fig. 7, this embodiment further provides a method for installing a flexible screen, where the method for installing a flexible screen on the electronic device uses the connection mechanism, and the specific operation steps are as follows:
s101, laying the elastic body 1 on the first part 2 and the second part 3 which are positioned on the first layer, so that the elastic body 1 forms a second layer, and fixedly connecting the elastic body 1 on the first part 2 and the second part 3 in a pre-tensioned manner, wherein the elastic body 1 covers and spans a rotating shaft 6 which connects the first part 2 and the second part 3 and is always attached to the rotating shaft 6 but is not fixedly connected with the rotating shaft 6 as shown in figures 1 and 2;
s102, laying a flexible screen as a third layer on the elastic body 1, and connecting two opposite edges of the flexible screen with the first portion 2 and the second portion 3, respectively, the flexible screen completely covers the elastic body 1 at the bottom, so that the first portion 2, the second portion 3, the elastic body 1, and the flexible screen form a multi-layer laminated structure, as shown in fig. 3.
Further, on the basis of the above operation, the method further comprises the following steps:
