Based on the above-mentioned mobile terminal hardware structure and communication network system, various embodiments of the present invention are proposed.

First embodiment

The problems that in the prior art, the eyesight of a user is reduced and the user experience satisfaction is poor due to the fact that strict control is not conducted on the display duration of display areas with different sizes are solved. The embodiment provides a display control method, which includes acquiring display duration of a display screen of a flexible screen terminal continuously displayed in a current display size, determining a target display duration based on the acquired display size and a preset display size-target display duration mapping table, and controlling the display screen of the flexible screen terminal to expand to amplify display content corresponding to a display area when the display duration exceeds the target display duration. Specifically, as shown in fig. 3, fig. 3 is a basic flowchart of the display control method provided in this embodiment, where the display control method includes:

s301: and acquiring the display duration of the display screen of the flexible screen terminal continuously displaying according to the current display size, wherein the display size is the size corresponding to the display area.

In this embodiment, first, a display duration of a display screen of the flexible screen terminal continuously displayed in a current display size needs to be obtained in real time, where the current display size is a size corresponding to a current display area of the flexible screen terminal, and it should be clear that the display area in this embodiment refers to an area of the display screen of the flexible screen terminal currently used by a user in a bright screen state, and the display area is in a flat state to facilitate the use of the user, and an area not in the bright screen state is referred to as a non-display area, and the non-display area may be in the flat state or in a bent state. For better understanding, the description is made by way of example, for example, a display screen of the flexible screen terminal is divided into A, B two areas, and it is simultaneously assumed that a user is currently playing a video using the area a, the area B is not used, that is, the area a is in a bright screen state and is used as a display area, the area B is not in a bright screen state and is used as a non-display area, and at this time, the display size of the area a and the display duration of the area a for continuous display are acquired.

It should also be clear that in some embodiments, the display area may also refer to a user-defined main area, wherein the main area is an area currently being used by the user, the main area being in a flat state, such as a game content display area, a video content display area, a novel content display area, etc., and an area other than the main area is referred to as a non-display area, the non-display area being in a flat state or a curved state, such as a lyric content display area, a file content download display area, etc. For better understanding, the description is also made by way of example, for example, the display screen of the flexible screen terminal is divided into A, B two areas, and meanwhile, the user is assumed to view the area a as a main area and display a song listening interface with the area B as a sub area, that is, the area a is taken as a display area and the area B is taken as a non-display area, and the display size of the area a and the display duration of the area a which is continuously displayed are acquired.

It should be noted that, the description is made by using specific examples, and in practical applications, the flexible adjustment needs to be made according to specific scenarios.

S302: and determining the target display duration based on the acquired display size and a preset display size-target display duration mapping table.

In this embodiment, a mapping table of a preset display size and a target display duration is stored in advance in the flexible screen terminal, and in a general case, the preset display size generally takes a smaller value, so that when the display duration of the smaller display size exceeds the target display duration, the display size can be enlarged more, and then the display content is enlarged, thereby better protecting the eyesight of a user. For ease of understanding, reference may be made to the first and second tables, which are two exemplary display size-target display duration mapping tables.

Watch 1

Display length (centimeter)	Display width (centimeter)	Target display duration (minutes)
			a1～a2	b1～b2	30
a2～a3	b2～b3	45
			a3～a4	b3～b4	60
……	……	……

Watch two

It should be noted that only two specific display size-target display duration mapping tables are listed here, and in practical applications, the preset display size-target display duration mapping table is flexibly set by a developer according to experiments or experience.

S303: judging whether the display duration exceeds the target display duration or not;

if so, go to step S304, otherwise, go to step S303.

It can be understood that after the target display duration is determined, whether the acquired display duration exceeds the target display duration is judged, if the acquired display duration exceeds the target display duration, it means that the user currently displays for a long time by using the display size, and if the display size is continuously used for displaying, larger stimulation is caused to the eyes of the user, and at this time, the display screen of the flexible screen terminal needs to be controlled to be unfolded to amplify the display content corresponding to the display area, so that the stimulation degree to the eyes of the user is reduced.

S304: and controlling the display screen of the flexible screen terminal to be unfolded so as to amplify the display content corresponding to the display area.

In this embodiment, before the display screen of the flexible screen terminal is controlled to be expanded to amplify the display content corresponding to the display area, a display screen expansion reminding message may be sent to the user according to a preset reminding mode, that is, when it is determined whether the display duration of the terminal in a certain display size exceeds the target display duration, a reminding message that the display screen is about to be expanded is sent to the user, so as to better inform the user. Specifically, the preset reminding manner includes, but is not limited to, a short message, a voice, a vibration, and a ringing, and it is understood that the preset reminding manner may include one or any combination of the short message, the voice, the vibration, and the ringing, for example, the preset reminding manner includes the short message, or the preset reminding manner includes the voice, the vibration, or the preset reminding manner includes the vibration, the ringing, and the like. It should be noted that, the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned several reminding manners, and in fact, the present invention is not limited to the following specific reminding manners as long as the reminding manner of the user is within the protection scope of the present invention. Certainly, in other embodiments, the user does not need to be reminded according to a preset reminding mode, but the display screen of the flexible screen terminal is directly controlled to be unfolded so as to amplify the display content corresponding to the display area.

It should be clear that, in this embodiment, after sending the display screen expansion reminding message to the user in the preset reminding manner, at least two situations are included:

case one, see fig. 4:

s401: judging whether a display screen expansion allowing instruction is received or not;

if so, go to step S402, otherwise, go to step S401.

In this embodiment, after sending the display screen deployment reminding message to the user in the preset reminding manner, the display screen of the flexible screen terminal may be automatically controlled to be deployed to amplify the display content corresponding to the display area, or the display screen of the flexible screen terminal may be controlled to be deployed to amplify the display content corresponding to the display area only when receiving the display screen deployment permission instruction. It should be noted that the expansion of the display screen of the flexible screen terminal is controlled to amplify the display content corresponding to the display area, which can be specifically realized by arranging a micro rotating motor at the bending member of the flexible screen terminal, and of course, the method is only a common method for controlling the expansion of the display screen of the flexible screen terminal.

It can be understood that the received display screen unfolding allowing instruction may be issued by a user through a preset bending operation on a preset region of the flexible screen terminal, specifically, the preset region of the flexible screen terminal may be any region in the flexible screen terminal, for example, an upper end region of the flexible screen terminal, or a lower left corner region of the flexible screen terminal, and the like; the preset bending operation of the flexible screen terminal comprises a bending direction and a bending angle. It should be noted that only common preset regions and preset bending operations are listed here, and in practical applications, the preset regions and the preset bending operations of the flexible screen terminal are flexibly set by developers, and of course, can also be flexibly set by users.

It can also be understood that the received display screen expansion allowing instruction may also be issued by the user through touch operation on the flexible screen terminal, and specifically, the touch operation may be any touch operation, for example, an up-stroke operation, a down-stroke operation, a double-click operation, a preset graphic drawing operation, and the like on the display area.

S402: and controlling the display screen of the flexible screen terminal to be unfolded so as to amplify the display content corresponding to the display area.

It should be noted that, when the display screen of the flexible screen terminal is controlled to be expanded to enlarge the display content corresponding to the display area, at least the following two situations exist in the adjacent non-display area around the display area of the flexible screen terminal:

in a first case, only one adjacent non-display area around the display area of the flexible screen terminal is provided, for example, as shown in fig. 5-1, the flexible screen terminal area is divided into an area 501 and an area 502, where the area 502 is the current display area and the area 501 is the non-display area, and it is noted that the area 501 is originally an area in a bent state, and here, the area 501 is better illustrated to display the area 501 and the area 502 on the same plane.

In this embodiment, when there is only one adjacent non-display area around the display area of the flexible screen terminal, that is necessarily to unfold the display screen corresponding to the non-display area, for example, as described herein in connection with the example shown in fig. 5-1, referring to fig. 5-2, in order to select the display screen corresponding to the area 501 to unfold at a preset rate, the area 501 becomes smaller, and the area 502 becomes larger to display the content displayed before the area 502 that is not enlarged in the area 502 that is enlarged.

In the second case, a plurality of non-display areas adjacent to the periphery of the display area of the flexible screen terminal exist, for example, as shown in fig. 6-1, the flexible screen terminal area is divided into an area 601, an area 602, and an area 603, where the area 602 is the current display area, and the area 601 and the area 603 are non-display areas, it is noted that the area 601 and the area 603 are originally areas in a bent state, and here, the area 601 and the area 603 are better illustrated, and are displayed on the same plane as the area 602.

In this embodiment, when there are a plurality of adjacent non-display areas around the display area of the flexible screen terminal, at least two ways are included:

the first method is as follows: and controlling a display screen corresponding to any one non-display area adjacent to the display area of the flexible screen terminal to expand according to a preset rate so as to amplify the display content corresponding to the display area.

The display screen corresponding to one of the non-display areas can be selected to be expanded according to a preset speed, so that the display content corresponding to the display area is enlarged. For example, as described in connection with the example shown in fig. 6-1, referring to fig. 6-2, in order to select the display screen corresponding to the area 601 to be expanded at a preset rate, the area 601 is reduced, and the area 602 is increased to display the content displayed before the area 602 that is not increased in size in the area 602 that is increased in size; or as shown in fig. 6-3, the display screen corresponding to the selection area 603 is expanded at a preset rate, in which case the area 603 becomes smaller, and the area 602 becomes larger so as to display the content displayed before the non-enlarged area 602 in the enlarged area 602.

The second method comprises the following steps: and controlling display screens corresponding to two adjacent non-display areas of the display area of the flexible screen terminal to be unfolded according to a preset rate so as to amplify the display content corresponding to the display area.

It can be understood that, when a plurality of non-display areas correspond to the periphery of the display area, the display screen corresponding to each of the plurality of non-display areas may be selected to be expanded at a preset rate, so as to enlarge the display content corresponding to the display area. For example, still following the example shown in fig. 6-1, referring to fig. 6-4, in order to select the display screens corresponding to the

areas

601 and 603, respectively, to be expanded at a preset rate, both the

areas

601 and 603 are reduced, and the area 602 is enlarged to display the content displayed before the non-enlarged area 602 in the enlarged area 602.

It should be noted that, only two common ways of controlling the display screen of the flexible screen terminal to expand to enlarge the display content corresponding to the display area are listed here, the present invention is not limited to these two ways, and in practical applications, developers can flexibly set the modes, and the present invention is not specifically limited to this. Meanwhile, it is also worth noting that the preset speed of the display screen expansion is also flexibly set by developers, and certainly can be set by users.
