The radiator 700 located in the second region 332 may extend to the first region 331, that is, the radiator 700 on the rotation shaft 300 may be formed in the first region 331 and the second region 332. It should be noted that the radiator 700 on the shaft 300 may be formed in the third region 333 and the second region 332.

Referring to fig. 12, fig. 12 is a block diagram of an electronic device according to an embodiment of the disclosure. The electronic device 10 may include a controller 503 and a detector 504, the controller 503 and the detector 504 being electrically connected. The controller 503 may be integrated on the circuit board 500, the controller 503 may be a processor of the electronic device 10, and the controller 503 may also be controlled by the processor of the electronic device 10. The detector 504 may include one or more sensors that may detect a state of the electronic device 10. The states of the electronic apparatus 10 may include a folded state, i.e., a state formed when the first casing 100 and the second casing 200 are folded with each other, and an open state. The opened state is a state formed when the first and

second housings

100 and 200 are opened to each other.

When the detector 504 detects that the first casing 100 and the second casing 200 cover the second region 332 in the folded state, the controller 503 switches the radiator 700 located in the second region 332 to the closed state, and the controller 503 switches the radiator 700 located in the fourth region 334 to the operating state. When the detector 504 detects that the first enclosure 100 and the second enclosure 200 are in the open state, the second region 332 is switched to the operating state, and the controller 503 switches the fourth region 334 to the operating state.

Accordingly, it is possible to prevent the first case 100 and the second case 200 from shielding the radiator 700 due to the folded state, thereby reducing the signal of the radiator 700.

It is understood that the first casing 100 and the second casing 200 are respectively connected to the rotating shaft 300, and the first casing 100 and the second casing 200 can rotate relative to the rotating shaft 300, i.e., the first casing 100 and the second casing 200 can rotate via the rotating shaft 300.

The first display 400 includes a first display portion 401, a second display portion 402, and a connection display portion 403.

The connection display part 403 may be deformed, and the connection display part 403 may be folded such that positions of the first display part 401 and the second display part 402 are changed.

Here, the first display portion 401 may be disposed on one surface of the first casing 100. The first display portion 401 may cover a partial region of one surface of the first casing 100, and a non-display region of the electronic device 10 may be formed on the first casing 100. The first display unit 401 may be covered over the entire area of one surface of the first casing 100 to realize full-screen display on the one surface of the first casing 100.

The second display portion 402 may cover a partial region of one surface of the second housing 200, and a non-display region of the electronic device 10 may be formed on the second housing 200. The second display unit 402 may be provided to cover the entire area of one surface of the second casing 200, thereby realizing full-screen display on the one surface of the second casing 200. The second display portion 402 may move following the movement of the second housing 200. When the first casing 100 and the second casing 200 are opened, the first display portion 401 and the second display portion 402 may be located on the same plane to display images together, so as to form a display plane together.

The connection display portion 403 may cover the outer surface of the rotating shaft 300, and the connection display portion 403 may be located in the fourth region 334. In some embodiments, the rotating shaft 300 may only have the radiator 700 disposed at the second region 332, and since the fourth region 334 is covered by the connection display portion 403, the radiator signal at the fourth region 344 may be affected, and the radiator 700 disposed at the second region 332 in the embodiments of the present disclosure may reduce the effect of other devices on the radiator 700 on the rotating shaft 300, and may improve the performance of the radiator while saving the cost of the radiator.

When the first casing 100 and the second casing 200 are rotated or folded with respect to each other to reach the folded state, the first display portion 401 and the second display portion 402 may be located at an intermediate position between the first casing 100 and the second casing 200, which may be defined as an inner folded state. The first display portion 401 and the second display portion 402 may also be located outside the first casing 100 and the second casing 200, which may be defined herein as an outer folded state.

In some embodiments, a cover plate may be disposed on the first display screen 400, the cover plate may be made of a flexible material, and the cover plate may cover the first display screen 400 to protect the first display screen 400.
