After the first target sound is determined to pass through the hole, the orientation of the sound playing port of the receiver 2 is modulated by the orientation modulation device, so as to radiate sound outwards through the first target sound passing hole, thereby realizing the call.

When the direction modulation device is connected with the infrared photosensitive sensor, the infrared photosensitive sensor is driven by the direction modulation device to perform direction modulation when the direction modulation device modulates the direction of the sound playing port of the receiver 2.

The method comprises the steps of determining a target sound transmission hole from sound transmission holes on different surfaces by receiving a first input for answering a first incoming call, determining which surface a user answers a call, controlling the movement of the receiver 2 by the orientation adjusting device, and enabling a sound playing port of the receiver 2 to face a corresponding surface to align the target sound transmission hole for receiving a call voice output, so that when the user uses a double-sided screen for calling, the receiver 2 in the electronic equipment can be adaptively adjusted according to different use surfaces of the user, and when the user uses only one receiver in the electronic equipment, the user can normally answer the call voice when using different surfaces of the electronic equipment, the user can conveniently answer the call, and the user experience is improved.

Further, before the step of receiving the first input for answering the first incoming call, the incoming call answering method further includes: the orientation modulation device controls the receiver 2 to be in a third state that the sound playing port faces the interior of the outer shell 1.

Before the communication operation starts, the receiver 2 is in a hidden state, and the sound playing port faces to the inside of the outer shell 1, so that the modulation moving stroke of the sound playing port of the receiver 2 in other different states is conveniently shortened, and the entering of dust is reduced.

When the orientation modulation device is connected with the infrared photosensitive sensor, the infrared photosensitive sensor is driven by the orientation modulation device to perform orientation modulation when the orientation modulation device modulates the orientation of the sound playing port of the receiver 2.

Further, as a preferred embodiment, after the step of answering the first incoming call, the incoming call answering method further includes:

The second input may be a click input, a slide input, a voice input, etc. to the operation option, which is not particularly limited herein.

After the call operation is finished, the receiver 2 needs to be modulated into a hidden state according to the second input of the user hanging up the first incoming call, and the sound playing port faces to the inside of the outer shell 1, so that the modulation moving stroke of the sound playing port is shortened and dust entering is reduced when the receiver 2 carries out new call answering.

Wherein the second target sound transmitting aperture is associated with the third input, the second target sound transmitting aperture being the other of the first sound transmitting aperture and the second sound transmitting aperture. The second incoming call is generated in the call process of the first incoming call. The third input may be a click input, a slide input, a voice input, etc. to the operation option, which is not particularly limited herein.

The one state corresponding to the first target sound transmission hole is specifically: when the first target sound transmission hole is a first sound transmission hole on the first surface, one state corresponding to the first target sound transmission hole is a first state, the second target sound transmission hole is correspondingly a second sound transmission hole on the second surface, and the other state corresponding to the second target sound transmission hole is a second state, and vice versa, which is not described herein again.

The third input can realize answering of the second incoming call, and the answering surface for answering the second incoming call can be determined according to the third input, so that the second target sound transmission hole associated with the third input is obtained.

In the process, when a first input for answering a first incoming call is received in the electronic device, if it is determined that a first target sound transmission hole corresponding to the first input is a first sound transmission hole on the first surface, the sound playing port of the receiver 2 is controlled to face the first sound transmission hole by facing the modulation device, so that the receiver 2 is in a first state, and the first incoming call is answered; when the electronic device receives a new incoming call, that is, a second incoming call, during a call of the first incoming call, a third input of the user for answering the second incoming call is received, the second sound through hole on the second surface is determined as a second target sound through hole, and the receiver 2 is adjusted to be switched from a first state in which the sound playing port faces the first sound through hole to a second state in which the sound playing port faces the second sound through hole, or vice versa, which is not described herein again. In the process of a first incoming call, when a new incoming call is received, different receiving sides are determined through the answering input operation of a user, the receiver 2 is adjusted to be switched among different states, the sound playing port of the receiver 2 is enabled to carry out corresponding direction modulation on the receiver 2 according to sound transmission holes on the sides corresponding to different directions of the receiving sides of the different incoming calls along with the use operation of the user, and therefore the convenient call operation is carried out when the user uses a double-sided screen.

As a preferred embodiment, the step of receiving a third input for answering the second incoming call includes:

receiving a first turning operation under the condition that the first incoming call is in an answering state and a second incoming call notification is obtained; responding to the first overturning operation, and acquiring a first overturning angle of the electronic equipment; and determining that a third input for answering a second incoming call is received under the condition that the first turning angle is larger than a first set threshold value.

The first flipping operation is specifically an operation in which the electronic device is flipped. And judging whether a third input for answering the second incoming call is received, switching from the call through one surface of the first surface or the second surface to the call through the other surface of the first surface or the second surface, detecting the change of the angle of the turning action of the electronic equipment, and determining that the electronic equipment in the first incoming call answering state needs to answer the second incoming call through the other surface of the electronic equipment when the turning angle meets a set value.

Further, the electronic device includes a second display screen disposed on the second surface, and after determining that a third input for answering a second incoming call is received when the first flip angle is greater than a first set threshold, the receiving answering method further includes:

displaying at least one of incoming call information of the second incoming call and an operation option corresponding to the first incoming call in the second display screen; wherein the operation options include: at least one of the call, the hang-up call, and the three-party call is retained.

In this process, when the information in the second display screen is displayed, the second display screen may be lit.

Taking a dual-display screen mobile phone as an example, when a phone is answered by using one of the dual-display screen of the mobile phone, a second phone is called in, the other display screen of the mobile phone is used for answering by turning over the mobile phone, before answering a second incoming call, the sound playing port in the receiver 2 needs to be rotated towards the second surface according to the method, the display screen on the first surface can be turned off, and the first phone can be hung off, reserved or called by a third party.

The method is implemented specifically as follows, when one screen answers a call, a second call is called in at the moment, the conversation gravity sensor detects the occurrence of the turning action of the mobile phone, after the turning action of the mobile phone is detected, the screen of the first side can be turned off, the screen of the first side is prevented from being touched by mistake, the threshold value of the detected turning angle can be set through software, if the turning angle of the mobile phone is detected to be larger than 150 degrees, the screen of the first side is turned off, and if the turning angle of the mobile phone is larger than the threshold value, the sound playing port in the receiver 2 is turned to the second side according to the method, so that a user can conveniently and quickly answer the call. When a second call is answered, the answering interface of the second display screen on the second surface can prompt a user to process the first call, operation options such as hanging-up, reserving, third-party call and the like can be displayed on the interface, and three-party call can be carried out. So that the user can select according to the own will.

Further, after the step of obtaining the first flip angle of the electronic device, the receiving method further includes:

receiving a second overturning operation within a set time under the condition that the first overturning angle is larger than a second set threshold; responding to the second overturning operation, and acquiring a second overturning angle of the electronic equipment; and if the second overturning angle is larger than a third set threshold value, rejecting the second incoming call.

When a first incoming call is in a answering state and a new incoming call is input, two turning actions can be detected through the gravity acceleration, namely the number of the incoming call on the second side is seen after the first incoming call is turned for a certain angle, if the incoming call is not wanted to be answered and turned back, the phone on the second side is hung up after the two turning actions are detected, the fact that the call is not wanted to be answered is confirmed to be refused, the incoming call can be automatically sent to an incoming call party in a short message mode after the new incoming call is refused, and the other party is informed of answering the call or the call is inconvenient to answer at the moment. The threshold value of the two turnover angles can be set.

The specific values of the first, second and third setting thresholds may be set as required, and the specific values of the first, second and third setting thresholds may be equal or unequal.

The receiving method drives the sound playing port of the receiver to perform orientation modulation through the orientation modulation device arranged in the outer shell of the electronic equipment, according to the input operation for answering the incoming call, the target sound transmission hole is determined from the sound transmission holes on different surfaces of the electronic equipment, so that the sound playing port of the telephone receiver is matched with the target sound transmission hole on the telephone receiving surface for voice answering to radiate sound, and a user can hold the electronic equipment by hand, when the receiver is answered through different faces of the electronic equipment, the receiver can be answered by different faces, and the sound transmitted by the receiver can be conveniently dispersed outwards by adjusting the sound to different surfaces on the outer shell, therefore, when the electronic equipment only has one receiver, the user can normally receive the voice when using different sides of the electronic equipment to receive the voice.
