Detailed Description

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 some, not all, embodiments of the present invention. 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.

Referring to fig. 1 and 2, the mobile terminal includes a housing 30, a driving module 10, and a telescopic module 20. The driving module 10 is located in the housing 30, the driving module 10 includes a driving mechanism 11, a vibrating member 12, a transmission shaft 14 and a connecting assembly 13, the driving mechanism 11 is connected with the telescopic module 20 through the transmission shaft 14 and the connecting assembly 13, and the vibrating member 12 is connected with the driving mechanism 11. The connecting assembly 13 includes a first connecting assembly 131 and a second connecting assembly 132, the first connecting assembly 131 has a first end and a second end opposite to the first end, the first end of the first connecting assembly 131 is connected to the transmission shaft 14, the second connecting assembly 132 has a third end and a fourth end opposite to the third end, and the third end of the second connecting assembly 132 is connected to the telescopic module 20; the connecting assembly 13 has a connected state and a disconnected state, and the connecting assembly can be switched between the connected state and the disconnected state; when the connecting assembly 13 is in the connected state, the second end of the first connecting assembly 131 is connected to the fourth end of the second connecting assembly 132, and the driving mechanism 11 can drive the telescopic module 20 to be accommodated in the housing 30 or extend out of the housing 30; with the link assembly 13 in the separated state, the second end of the first link assembly 131 is separated from the fourth end of the second link assembly 132, and the driving mechanism 11 may drive the vibrating member 12 to vibrate.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the connecting assembly 13 can be switched between the connected state and the disconnected state by the first connecting assembly 131 and the second connecting assembly 132. When the first connecting component 131 is connected to the second connecting component 132, the driving mechanism 11 is connected to the telescopic module 20 through the transmission shaft 14 and the connecting component 13, and at this time, the driving mechanism 11 can drive the telescopic module 20 to move by driving the transmission shaft 14 and the connecting component 13, so that the telescopic module 20 can move to extend out of the housing 30 or be accommodated in the housing 30.

Optionally, the telescopic module 20 may be provided with functional components, and the functional components may be a camera component, a receiver component, a card holder component, a charging interface component, a data transmission interface component, and the like. For example, the telescopic module 20 includes a base 24, a camera assembly is disposed on the base 24, and the telescopic module 20 can be driven by the driving mechanism 11 to move to be accommodated in the housing 30 or extend out of the housing 30, so that the camera disposed on the telescopic module 20 can extend out of the housing 30 when shooting is needed, and can be accommodated in the housing 30 when shooting is not needed; therefore, the display screen of the mobile terminal does not need to be perforated to realize the shooting function, and the screen occupation ratio of the mobile terminal is further improved.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the driving mechanism 11 is further connected to the vibrating member 12, and the driving mechanism 11 can drive the vibrating member 12 to vibrate. When the connecting assembly 13 is in the separated state, that is, the first connecting assembly 131 is not connected to the second connecting assembly 132, the driving mechanism 11 is not connected to the telescopic mechanism 20 at this time, and in this case, the movement of the driving mechanism 11 does not drive the telescopic module 20, but can drive the vibrating element 12 to vibrate. The vibration of the vibrating member 12 can drive the vibration of the whole mobile terminal, so as to realize the vibration function of the mobile terminal, for example, when the mobile terminal receives an incoming call, a short message or an alarm clock, the driving mechanism 11 can be controlled to operate at a higher rotating speed, so as to drive the vibrating member 12 to vibrate. Wherein the driving mechanism 11 may be a motor. It should be noted that the driving mechanism 11 is connected to a controller of the mobile terminal, and the specific circuit connection relationship and the control principle may refer to the existing design, which is not described herein again.

Alternatively, the vibrator 12 is an eccentric. The eccentric is characterized in that the axis of rotation is not in the center of mass of the wheel. A typical eccentric is a wheel with an incomplete pie configuration; another typical eccentric is a wheel that has a pie-shaped profile, but at least one part of the pie has a much greater thickness and mass than the other areas. When the eccentric wheel rotates, the rotating shaft is not on the center of mass, the centrifugal force in each direction is unbalanced, and the eccentric wheel tends to shake perpendicular to the rotating shaft, so that the driving mechanism 11 and the whole mobile terminal are driven to vibrate.

According to the mobile terminal provided by the embodiment of the invention, when the connecting assembly 13 is in a connecting state, the driving mechanism 11 can drive the telescopic module 20 to move to be accommodated in the shell 30 or extend out of the shell 30, so that functional components such as a camera and the like can be arranged on the telescopic module 20, the number of holes on a display screen of the mobile terminal is reduced, and the screen occupation ratio of the mobile terminal is improved; and when the connecting assembly 13 is in the separated state, the driving mechanism 11 can drive the vibrating member 12 to vibrate, so as to realize the vibrating function of the whole mobile terminal. In this way, by switching the states of the connecting assembly 13, the driving of the telescopic module 20 and the driving of the vibrating element 12 are realized by one driving mechanism 11, and compared with the prior art that two driving mechanisms 11 are separately required to respectively drive the telescopic module 20 and the vibrating element 12, the mobile terminal provided by the embodiment of the invention has lower hardware cost, saves the internal installation space, and is more beneficial to the development of the mobile terminal to be light and thin.

It should be noted that the rotation speed of the driving mechanism 11 driving the telescopic module 20 to move is lower than the rotation speed of the vibrating element 12 to move. When the driving mechanism 11 works at a low rotation speed, the telescopic module 20 can be driven to extend out of the housing 30 or retract into the housing 30, and at this time, the vibrating element 12 is also driven to operate at a low rotation speed, but the vibration frequency is low, so that the capability of driving the mobile terminal to vibrate together is weak, the vibration feedback felt by a user is weak, and the interference to the user is small. When the driving mechanism 11 works at a high rotation speed, the rotation speed of the vibrating element 12 is high, the vibration frequency is also high, the capability of driving the mobile terminal to vibrate together is high, especially when the vibration frequency is close to the resonance frequency of the mobile terminal, the vibration feedback felt by a user is also high, and the effect of prompting the user is achieved.

In addition, the switching of the state of the connection component 13 can be automatically realized by the mobile terminal. For example, the first connecting assembly 131 is provided with an electromagnet electrically connected to the mobile terminal processor, the second connecting assembly 132 is provided with a magnetic member, and the processor controls the electromagnet to be powered on and off, so as to switch the connection and separation states of the connecting assembly 13.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the first connection assembly 131 includes a first connection arm 1311, and the first connection arm 1311 is connected to the driving mechanism 11 through a transmission shaft 14; the second connecting member 132 includes a first elastic member 1322 and a second connecting arm 1321, and the second connecting arm 1321 is connected to the expansion module 20 through the first elastic member 1322. Optionally, the transmission shaft 14 is a screw rod, the first connecting arm 1311 is provided with a mounting hole adapted to the transmission shaft 14, the first connecting arm 1311 is sleeved on the transmission shaft 14 through the mounting hole, and then the first connecting arm 1311 can move up and down on the transmission shaft 14 when the transmission shaft 14 rotates. When the first connecting arm 1311 is connected to the second connecting arm 1321, that is, the connecting component 13 is in a connected state, the connecting component 13 is connected to the expansion module 20 through the first elastic component 1322, and when the driving mechanism 11 rotates, the driving shaft 14 is driven to rotate, and then the connecting component 13 is driven to move up and down to compress or stretch the first elastic component 1322, and the compression or extension of the first elastic component 1322 will drive the expansion module 20 to extend out of the housing 30 or retract into the housing 30.

For example, when the first connecting arm 1311 is connected to the second connecting arm 1321, the second connecting arm 1321 is fixedly connected to the first elastic member 1322, the driving mechanism 11 rotates forward to drive the transmission shaft 14 to rotate forward, and drives the connecting assembly 13 to move upward to press the first elastic member 1322, so that when the first elastic member 1322 is compressed to a certain extent, the telescopic module 20 connected thereto is pushed to extend out of the housing 30. Accordingly, when the driving mechanism 11 is rotated reversely, the transmission shaft 14 is rotated reversely to drive the connecting assembly 13 to move downward to stretch the first elastic member 1322, and when the first elastic member 1322 is extended to a certain extent, the telescopic module 20 is retracted into the housing 30.

Optionally, the first connecting assembly 131 further includes a first magnetic member 1312, the first magnetic member 1312 is connected to the first connecting arm 1311, the second connecting assembly 132 further includes a second magnetic member 1323, and the second magnetic member 1323 is connected to the second connecting arm 1321; at least one of the first magnetic member 1312 and the second magnetic member 1323 is an electromagnet. When the connecting assembly 13 is in the connected state, the first magnetic member 1312 and the second magnetic member 1323 are magnetically attracted, and the first connecting arm 1311 and the second connecting arm 1321 are connected; when the connection member 13 is in the separated state, the first magnetic member 1312 and the second magnetic member 1323 are not attracted, and the first connection arm 1311 and the second connection arm 1321 are separated.

For example, the first magnetic member 1312 is an electromagnet, and the electromagnet is electrically connected to a processor of the mobile terminal, and the processor controls the electromagnet to be powered on or powered off. When the electromagnet is powered on, the second magnetic element 1323 is attracted, and the first magnetic element 1312 and the second magnetic element 1323 are magnetically attracted and connected together, so that the first connecting assembly 131 and the second connecting assembly 132 are connected, and the connecting assembly 13 is in a connected state, at this time, the driving mechanism 11 can drive the telescopic module 20 to move. When the electromagnet is de-energized, the first magnetic member 1312 and the second magnetic member 1323 are not attracted because of lack of magnetism, so that the first connecting assembly 131 is separated from the second connecting assembly 132, and at this time, the connecting assembly 13 is in a separated state, and the driving mechanism 11 can drive the vibrating member 12 to vibrate.

It should be noted that the second connecting assembly 132 includes a second elastic member 1324, and one end of the second elastic member 1324 is connected to the second magnetic member 1323, and the other end is connected to the second connecting arm 1321. Optionally, the first magnetic member 1312 is an electromagnet, when the electromagnet is powered on, the first magnetic member 1312 generates an attraction force on the second magnetic member 1323, and at this time, the second elastic member 1324 is stretched, so that the second magnetic member 1323 can be attracted to be connected with the first magnetic member 1312; when the electromagnet is powered off, the first magnetic member 1312 has no attraction force on the second magnetic member 1323, the first magnetic member 1312 is separated from the second magnetic member 1323, and the second elastic member 1324 contracts to drive the second magnetic member 1323 to be away from the first magnetic member 1312, so as to ensure that the connecting assembly 13 is in a separated state.

In a preferred embodiment, the first connecting arm 1311 is provided with a first groove, the first magnetic member 1312 is located in the first groove, the second connecting arm 1321 is provided with a second groove, the second elastic member 1324 and the second magnetic member 1323 are located in the second groove, and the notch of the first groove is opposite to the notch of the second groove. The first magnetic member 1312 is disposed in the first groove, so that the first magnetic member 1312 can be better protected, and the second elastic member 1324 and the second magnetic member 1323 can be better protected by disposing the second groove, so as to avoid collision or friction with other devices in the mobile terminal.

In addition, with the connection assembly 13 in the connected state, the notch of the first groove is opposite and flush with the notch of the second groove. The notch of the first groove is flush with the notch of the second groove, which may mean that the notch of the first groove is opposite to the notch of the second groove, and the plane of the notch of the first groove is parallel to the plane of the notch of the second groove.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the telescopic module 20 includes a guide rod 23, the first elastic element 1322 is sleeved on the guide rod 23, the second connecting arm 1321 is provided with a guide hole matched with the guide rod 23, and the second connecting arm 1321 is sleeved on the guide rod 23 through the guide hole. For example, one side of the telescopic module 20 may be provided with an installation groove, the guide rod 23 may be located in the installation groove, and the axial direction of the guide rod 23 is consistent with the moving direction of the telescopic die holder; the second connecting arm 1321 is sleeved on the guide rod 23 through the guide hole and connected with the first elastic piece 1322, the first elastic piece 1322 is sleeved on the guide rod 23, two ends of the first elastic piece 1322 are respectively contacted with the second connecting arm 1321 and the groove wall of the mounting groove on the telescopic module 20, and the first elastic piece 1322 pushes the telescopic module 20 to extend out of the shell 30 when being compressed to a certain degree by being extruded by the second connecting arm 1321; the first elastic element 1322 drives the expansion module 20 to retract into the housing 30 when being stretched by the second connecting arm 1321. The first elastic member 1322, the second connecting arm 1321 and the wall of the mounting groove are fixed by adhesion, so as to ensure that the first elastic member 1322 can push and retract the telescopic module 20. In addition, the guide rod 23 is provided to prevent the first elastic member 1322 from bending and deforming due to shaking, thereby providing a guide function for the first elastic member 1322 to be compressed and extended and also providing a guide function for the movement direction of the connecting assembly 13.

Optionally, the telescopic module 20 includes a first limiting member 21 and a second limiting member 22 disposed oppositely, one end of the guide rod 23 is connected to the first limiting member 21, the other end is connected to the second limiting member 22, and the first elastic member 1322 is located between the first limiting member 21 and the second connecting arm 1321. Specifically, the first limiting member 21 and the second limiting member 22 are protruded from the same side of the telescopic module 20, and the guide rod 23 connects the first limiting member 21 and the second limiting member 22 to form an i-shaped structure. The first elastic component 1322 may have one end connected to the first limiting component 21 and the other end connected to the second connecting arm 1321, so as to ensure the driving action of the first elastic component 1322 on the expansion module 20.

It should be noted that one end of the first elastic component 1322 is fixedly connected to the first limiting component 21, and the other end of the first elastic component 1322 is connected to the second connecting arm 1321; alternatively, one end of the first elastic member 1322 close to the first limiting member 21 is fixedly connected to the guide rod 23, and the other end of the first elastic member 1322 is connected to the second connecting arm 1321. That is, two ends of the first elastic member 1322 are fixed, not free ends, and when the first elastic member 1322 is compressed to a certain extent by the second connecting arm 1321, a thrust can be generated on the first limiting member 21, so as to push the expansion module 20 to extend out of the housing 30; since the first elastic element 1322 is connected to the second connecting arm 1321, when the second connecting arm 1321 moves downward, the first elastic element 1322 is stretched, and when the first elastic element 1322 is stretched to a certain extent, the first elastic element 1322 generates a downward pulling force on the first limiting element 21, so as to retract the expansion module 20 into the housing 30. In this way, the driving action of the first elastic member 1322 on the telescopic module 20 is further ensured.

Optionally, the second connecting assembly 132 further includes a third elastic member (not shown), and the third elastic member is located between the second limiting member 22 and the second connecting arm 1321. That is, two elastic members are disposed between the first limiting member 21 and the second limiting member 22, and the second connecting arm 1321 is located between the two elastic members to separate the first elastic member 1322 from the third elastic member. For example, when the connecting assembly 13 is in the connected state, the forward rotation of the driving mechanism 11 can drive the connecting assembly 13 to move upward, so as to extrude the first elastic member 1322, so that the first elastic member 1322 generates an upward pushing force on the first limiting member 21 when the first elastic member 1322 is compressed to a certain extent, so as to push the telescopic module 20 to extend out of the housing 30; when the driving mechanism 11 rotates reversely, the connecting assembly 13 can be driven to move downward, and further the third elastic member is squeezed, so that when the third elastic member is compressed to a certain extent, a downward pushing force is generated on the second limiting member 22, so as to push the telescopic module 20 to retract into the housing 30. The two elastic members are arranged such that the extension and retraction of the telescopic module 20 is facilitated by the two elastic members.

In addition, one end of the third elastic element is fixedly connected to the second limiting element 22, and the other end of the third elastic element is connected to the second connecting arm 1321; alternatively, one end of the third elastic member close to the second limiting member 22 is fixedly connected to the guide rod 23, and the other end of the third elastic member is connected to the second connecting arm 1321. That is, the two ends of the third elastic element are fixed and not free ends, so that the pushing and retracting action of the third elastic element on the expansion module 20 can be ensured.

It should be noted that when the driving mechanism 11 drives the vibrating element 12 to rotate, the driving mechanism 11 reciprocates within a preset period, that is, alternately performs clockwise rotation and counterclockwise rotation within the preset period.

Referring to fig. 3, when the retractable module 20 is located in the housing 30, the first connecting arm 1311 is located at the first position P1, if the driving mechanism 11 needs to drive the vibrating element 12 to vibrate, the mobile terminal controls the electromagnet to be powered off through the processor, so that the first connecting arm 1311 is separated from the second connecting arm 1321, and the connecting assembly 13 is in a separated state, at this time, the driving mechanism 11 may rotate clockwise for a time period T1, and then the driving mechanism 11 can drive the first connecting arm 1311 to move along the transmission shaft 14 to the second position P2, and then rotate counterclockwise for a time period T1, and drive the first connecting arm 1311 to move back to the first position P1 along the transmission shaft 14. Thus, when the telescopic module 20 is located in the housing, for example, when the mobile terminal is used for calling or alarm clock, the driving mechanism 11 alternately rotates clockwise and counterclockwise in the process of driving the vibration member 12 to vibrate by the driving mechanism 11, because the connecting assembly 13 is in the separated state, the driving mechanism 11 only drives the first connecting arm 1311 to repeatedly move back and forth between the first position P1 and the second position P2, but the telescopic module 20 does not rise or fall, but the vibration member 12 still normally rotates to generate vibration.

Referring to fig. 4, when the expansion module 20 is located outside the housing 30, that is, the connection assembly 13 is in a connection state, the first connection arm 1311 is located at the third position P3, if the mobile terminal needs to vibrate during a call alert or an alarm alert, the mobile terminal may control the electromagnet to be powered off through the processor, so that the first connection arm 1311 is separated from the second connection arm 1321, and the connection assembly 13 is in a separation state, at this time, the driving mechanism 11 may rotate counterclockwise for a time period T2, so as to drive the first connection arm 1311 to move downward along the transmission shaft 14 to the fourth position P4, and since the first connection arm 1311 is separated from the second connection arm 1321, the second connection arm 1321 will move to contact with the second position limiter 22 under the action of gravity, but at this time, the elongation degree of the first elastic member 1322 will not generate a pulling force on the first position limiter 21, the telescopic module 20 will not be pulled downwards, the telescopic module 20 will not move, and the fourth position P4 is aligned with the position of the second connecting arm 1321 when moving to contact with the second limiting member 22; when the first connecting arm 1311 moves to the fourth position P4, the driving mechanism 11 rotates clockwise for a time period T2, which drives the first connecting arm 1311 to move back to the third position P3. Thus, when the telescopic module 20 is located outside the housing, for example, when the mobile terminal is used for calling or alarm clock, the driving mechanism 11 alternately rotates clockwise and counterclockwise when the driving mechanism 11 drives the vibrating member 12 to vibrate, because the connecting assembly 13 is in the separated state, the driving mechanism 11 only drives the first connecting arm 1311 to repeatedly move back and forth between the first position P1 and the second position P2, but the telescopic module 20 does not rise or fall, and still stays in the state of extending out of the housing 30, but the vibrating member 12 still normally rotates to generate vibration. In addition, when the vibrating member 12 stops vibrating, the driving mechanism 11 can drive the first connecting arm 1311 to move to the fourth position P4 to be flush with the second connecting arm 1321, and the processor controls the electromagnet to be energized, so that the first connecting arm 1311 is connected with the second connecting arm 1321, and the connecting assembly 13 is in a connected state.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the mobile terminal may include: cell phones, tablet computers, electronic book readers, MP3 players, MP4 players, laptop portable computers, wearable devices, and the like.

The embodiment of the invention also provides a control method, which is applied to the mobile terminal in the embodiments of fig. 1 to fig. 4; referring to fig. 5, the control method includes the following steps:

step 501, receiving driving information.

The driving information is information that can trigger the mobile terminal to control the driving mechanism to operate in the first operation mode or the second operation mode. In the first working mode, the connecting assembly is in a connecting state, and the driving mechanism drives the telescopic module to be accommodated in the shell or extend out of the shell; under the second working mode, the connecting assembly is in a separated state, and the driving mechanism drives the vibrating piece to vibrate.

It will be appreciated that the drive mechanism in the first mode of operation drives the movement of the pantograph, and thus the drive information is the extension or retraction of the pantograph. Optionally, the telescopic module may be provided with a functional component, for example, a camera component, and when the driving information may refer to an operation of receiving a user start-up shooting application, or an operation of starting a video call, or an operation of answering a video call, and the like. Or, the telescopic module may be provided with a receiver assembly, and the driving information may refer to an input operation of a user starting a call application program, or an input operation of answering an incoming call, and the like. Certainly, other functional components may be further disposed on the telescopic module, and the corresponding drives are also different, which is not described herein.

It should be noted that, the mobile terminal controls the connection assembly to be in the connection state while controlling the driving mechanism to operate in the first operation mode. If one of the first connecting component and the second connecting component comprises an electromagnet and the other comprises a magnetic piece, the electromagnet can be electrically connected with a processor of the mobile terminal; under the condition that the driving information is the first driving information, the mobile terminal controls the processor to be electrified with the electromagnet, then the electromagnet adsorbs the magnetic part, so that the first connecting assembly is connected with the second connecting assembly, and the connecting assemblies are in a connecting state. The specific structure and implementation of the connection component may refer to the specific description in the above embodiment of the mobile terminal, and are not described herein again.

The driving mechanism drives the vibrating piece to vibrate in the second working mode, and in this case, the driving information may refer to a call reminder, a short message reminder, an alarm clock reminder, and the like received by the mobile terminal.

Optionally, after the mobile terminal receives the driving information, it may further identify whether the driving information is information for controlling the driving mechanism to operate, and if so, further identify whether the driving information is first driving information for controlling the driving mechanism to operate in the first operation mode or second driving information for controlling the driving mechanism to operate in the second operation mode. For example, it may be determined whether the driving information is first driving information for controlling the expansion module to ascend or descend, and if not, it may be determined whether the driving information is second driving information for driving the vibration member to vibrate.

The mobile terminal controls the driving mechanism to operate in the second operating mode and controls the connecting assembly to be in the separated state. For example, when the driving information is the second driving information, the mobile terminal controls the processor and the electromagnet to be powered off, the electromagnet is separated from the magnetic part, so that the first connecting assembly is separated from the second connecting assembly, and the connecting assembly is in a separated state; at this time, the operation of the driving mechanism can drive the vibrating piece to vibrate without generating a driving effect on the telescopic module.

And 502, controlling the driving mechanism to operate in the first working mode under the condition that the driving information is first driving information.

Optionally, when the mobile terminal recognizes the first driving information, the connection assembly is controlled to be in a connection state, and the driving mechanism is controlled to drive the telescopic module to move to be accommodated in the housing or extend out of the housing. For example, when the mobile terminal receives an input operation of starting a shooting application program by a user, the mobile terminal also receives first driving information, and then the driving mechanism is controlled to operate so as to drive the telescopic module to move to extend out of the shell, so that the shooting operation is realized.

It should be noted that, a specific implementation principle of the driving mechanism driving the telescopic module to extend out of the housing or retract into the housing may refer to the specific description in the above embodiment of the mobile terminal, and is not described herein again to avoid repetition.

And 503, controlling the driving mechanism to operate in the second working mode when the driving information is second driving information.

Optionally, when the mobile terminal recognizes that the driving information is the second driving information, the connecting assembly is controlled to be in the separated state, and the driving mechanism is controlled to drive the vibrating piece to vibrate, so that a vibration function of the whole mobile terminal is realized. For example, when the mobile terminal receives an incoming call, the mobile terminal also receives the second driving information, and then the driving mechanism is controlled to operate to drive the vibrating piece to vibrate, so as to realize the incoming call vibrating function of the mobile terminal.

It should be noted that, a specific implementation principle of the driving mechanism driving the vibrating element to vibrate may refer to the specific description in the above embodiment of the mobile terminal, and is not described herein again to avoid repetition.

In an embodiment of the present invention, a rotation speed of the driving mechanism in the first operation mode is lower than a rotation speed in the second operation mode. For example, the driving mechanism is a motor, and the rotation speed of the motor driving the telescopic module to move is less than the rotation speed of the vibrating piece to vibrate.

When the mobile terminal receives the driving information, whether the driving information is the first driving information or the second driving information is identified, and then the driving mechanism is controlled to operate at a corresponding rotating speed. For example, when the received driving information is the first driving information for driving the telescopic module to ascend and descend, the rotating speed of the driving mechanism is set to be lower; and when the received driving information is second driving information generating vibration, setting the rotating speed of the driving mechanism to be higher. When the driving mechanism works at a low rotating speed, the rotating speed of the vibrating piece is low, the vibration frequency is low, the capability of driving the mobile terminal to vibrate together is weak, vibration feedback felt by a user is weak, and the interference on the use of the user is very small; when the driving mechanism works at a high rotating speed, the rotating speed of the vibrating piece is high, the vibration frequency is also high, and the capability of driving the mobile terminal to vibrate together is high.

In addition, in the second working mode, the driving mechanism reciprocates in a preset period; the method specifically comprises the following steps: the driving mechanism alternately performs clockwise rotation and counterclockwise rotation in a preset period. The specific implementation principle may refer to the specific description in the foregoing mobile terminal embodiment, and in order to avoid repetition, details are not described here.

According to the technical scheme provided by the embodiment of the invention, the mobile terminal can identify whether the driving information is the first driving information or the second driving information under the condition that the driving information is received, so that the driving mechanism is controlled to operate in the first working mode or the second working mode in a targeted manner. Therefore, the mobile terminal is switched between the connection state and the separation state by controlling the connecting assembly, so that the telescopic module can be driven to move to be contained in the shell or stretch out of the shell through one driving mechanism, the vibration of the vibrating piece can be driven, the vibration function of the whole mobile terminal is realized, the cost of hardware of the mobile terminal is lower, the internal installation space is saved, and the development of the mobile terminal to be light and thin is facilitated.

Optionally, the rotational speed of the driving mechanism in the first operating mode is lower than the rotational speed in the second operating mode.

Optionally, in the second operating mode, the driving mechanism reciprocates within a preset period.

Optionally, the driving mechanism reciprocates within a preset period, and specifically includes:

the driving mechanism alternately performs clockwise rotation and counterclockwise rotation in a preset period.
