Detailed Description
The structure of the electronic device provided by the embodiment of the invention is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
As shown in fig. 1 to 7, the electronic device mainly includes a flexible screen 100 and a host 200, the flexible screen 100 is foldable along a folding line 13, the folding line 13 divides the flexible screen 100 into a first screen 11 and a second screen 12, the first screen 11 is understood as a front screen, and the second screen 12 is understood as a rear screen; the first screen 11 is connected to one side of the host 200, the first screen 11 rotates relative to the host upper surface 21, and the second screen 12 rotates relative to the first screen 11 along fold line 13.
As shown in fig. 2, a first detecting device 400 is disposed on the host 200 or the flexible screen 100, a second detecting device 500 is disposed on the flexible screen 100, and a switching device 600 is disposed on the host 200; the first detecting device 400 and the second detecting device 500 are connected to the switching device 600. Alternatively, the first detecting device 400 and the second detecting device 500 are electrically connected to the switching device 600 through peripheral circuits.
The first detecting device 400 is configured to detect a first angle value of rotation of the first screen 11 relative to the upper surface 21 of the host computer along a first rotation direction.
And second detecting means 500 for detecting a second angle value by which the second screen 12 is rotated in the first rotation direction with respect to the first screen 11.
A switching device 600, configured to switch a display mode when the flexible screen 100 is in an operating state according to the first angle value detected by the first detecting device 400 and the second angle value detected by the second detecting device 500; the display modes of the flexible screen 100 include any one of a full-screen display mode (see fig. 3), a split-screen display mode (see fig. 6), a first-screen display mode (see fig. 5), and a second-screen display mode (see fig. 4).
As shown in fig. 1, the first rotation direction is specifically a direction in which the main body upper surface 21 is rotated away from the main body upper surface 21 with the main body upper surface 21 as a base, and the first angle value by which the first screen 11 rotates in the first rotation direction with respect to the main body upper surface 21 is θ1. The second angle value by which the second screen 12 rotates in the first rotation direction with respect to the first screen 11 is θ2, and the rotation of the second screen 12 with respect to the first screen 11 means that the second screen 12 rotates in the first rotation direction with the plane of the first screen 11 as the base surface.
The change of the first angle value and the second angle value enables the flexible screen 100 to present various folding states when in a working state, the folding state of the flexible screen 100 can be determined by a first angle value θ1 of the first screen 11 rotating along a first rotating direction relative to the upper surface 21 of the host, and a second angle value θ2 of the second screen 12 rotating along the first rotating direction relative to the first screen 11, so that the display mode of the flexible screen 100 can be freely switched among a full screen display mode, a split screen display mode, a first screen display mode and a second screen display mode according to the folding state of the flexible screen 100.
In order to realize detection of different folding states of the flexible screen 100, a plurality of detection devices are further disposed on the electronic device according to the embodiment of the present invention.
Alternatively, in order to facilitate detection of the first angle value and the second angle value, the first angle value is detected by the first detecting device 400, the second angle value is detected by the second detecting device 500, the first detecting device 400 and the second detecting device 500 are disposed at different positions, for example, the first detecting device 400 is disposed on the host 200 or the flexible screen 100, and the second detecting device 500 is disposed on the flexible screen 100.
Optionally, the first detecting device 400 and the second detecting device 500 are any one or two of an infrared sensor, a hall sensor and a gravity sensor.
Optionally, as shown in fig. 3, the flexible screen 100 further includes a flexible housing 300 for fixing the flexible screen 100, where the flexible screen 100 is fixed to a first surface of the flexible housing 300, and the first surface of the flexible housing 300 contacts a second surface (back surface) of the flexible screen 100, and the first surface (front surface) of the flexible screen 100 is opposite to the second surface of the flexible screen 100, and the first surface of the flexible screen 100 is mainly a display area of the flexible screen 100, that is, a display area of the first screen 11 and a display area of the second screen 12, such as an AA area shown in fig. 7. The flexible cover 300 may be folded by 0-180 ° in cooperation with the flexible screen 100 while protecting the flexible screen 100.
In an alternative embodiment, the first detecting device 400 is a hall sensor, and the second detecting device 500 is an infrared sensor.
The hall sensor is disposed inside the host 200, the flexible screen 100 or the flexible housing 300 is provided with a magnet matching the position of the hall sensor, as shown in fig. 7, the magnet is disposed at the edge position 2 of the first surface of the flexible housing 300, and the hall sensor is disposed inside the host 200 and corresponds to the position of the magnet, as shown in the position 3 in fig. 7.
The position of the magnet on the flexible screen 100 or the flexible housing 300 relative to the hall sensor changes, and the influence of the magnet on the magnetic field near the hall sensor changes accordingly, and the closer the magnet is to the hall sensor, the larger the magnetic field near the hall sensor changes. As the first screen 11 (front screen) rotates in the first rotational direction relative to the main unit upper surface 21, the magnet gradually moves away from the hall sensor, and the magnetic field strength in the vicinity of the hall sensor becomes weak. When the first screen 11 rotates in the direction opposite to the first rotation direction and approaches the host upper surface 21, the magnetic field strength near the hall sensor becomes large. In this way, the magnitude of the first angle value θ1 can be detected by using the trend of the magnetic field intensity and the magnetic field intensity value sensed by the hall sensor.
The infrared sensor may be disposed on the second surface of the flexible screen 100 or on the second surface of the flexible housing 300, and detects the magnitude of the second angle value θ2 according to the optical path difference of the infrared signal.
Optionally, the infrared sensor is located on a second surface (back surface) of the flexible housing 300, where the second surface of the flexible housing 300 is opposite to the first surface (front surface) of the flexible housing 300, and the position of the infrared sensor on the second surface of the flexible housing 300 may have a plurality of optional manners, and a specific position is suitable for conveniently detecting the second angle value θ2. For example, the infrared sensor is provided at an edge of the second face (back face) of the flexible casing 300, as at position 1 in fig. 7.
Specifically, the switching device 600 switches the display mode of the flexible screen 100 in the working state according to the detected first angle value and the detected second angle value, including:
when the first angle value is smaller than or equal to a first preset angle value, switching a display mode of the flexible screen 100 in a working state to a second screen display mode;

As shown in fig. 4, the second screen display mode means to turn off the first screen 11 and to turn on the second screen 12. And when the theta 1 is smaller than the first preset angle value, switching to a second screen display mode, which is equivalent to rear screen display. Optionally, the first preset angle value is any value in the range of 90 to 120 ° (including 90 ° and 120 °).
