When the bent mobile phone is bent to a flat screen, the first shaft body 12 rotates to drive the cam 30 to rotate, the sliding rod 31 is always in contact with the surface of the cam 30 under the action of the spring force, the cam 30 rotates to push the sliding rod 31 to move linearly, and the sliding rod 31 and the corresponding frame body are fixed to move together, so that the frame body is pushed to slide relative to the hinge support where the frame body is located, the length increased when the screen is unfolded is accommodated, and the flat unfolding of the screen is realized. Because the slide bar 31 promotes the support body to slide when the cam 30 rotates, can realize the extension of screen bending length and change, can not produce the power of dragging to the screen, the screen life-span of bending increases, and is difficult to lead to the screen and the clearance increase of structure all around.
