All other embodiments, which can be made by one of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments herein without making any inventive effort, are intended to be within the scope of the present application.

It is to be understood that the data so used may be interchanged, as appropriate, such that embodiments of the present application may be implemented in sequences other than those illustrated or described herein, and that the objects identified by "first," "second," etc. are generally of a type and not limited to the number of objects, e.g., the first object may be one or more. Furthermore, in the description and claims, "and/or" means at least one of the connected objects, and the character "/", generally means that the associated object is an "or" relationship.
The electronic device provided by the embodiment of the application is described in detail below through specific embodiments and application scenes thereof with reference to the accompanying drawings.
As shown in fig. 1 to 6, an embodiment of the present application provides an electronic device, which includes a housing 100, a display screen 200, a deformation driving part 300, a buffering and energy absorbing device 400, and an auxiliary driving device 500.
The housing 100 provides a mounting base for other components of the electronic device.
The display screen 200 is disposed in the housing 100, and the display screen 200 and the housing 100 form a device cavity that can be used to place other components of the electronic device. The display screen 200 includes a first region 210 and a second region 220 connected, the first region 210 being a planar region, the second region 220 being located at an edge of the display screen 200, and at least a portion of the display screen 200 located at the second region 220 being a flexible screen. Alternatively, in one embodiment, the display screen 200 is integrally configured as a flexible screen, i.e., the portions of the display screen 200 that are located in the first region 210 and the second region 220 are flexible screens; in another embodiment, the portion of the display screen 200 located in the first region 210 is a hard screen, and the portion of the display screen 200 located in the second region 220 is a flexible screen.
The deformation driving part 300 is positioned in the inner cavity of the equipment and connected with the second area 220, the deformation driving part 300 can deform and drive the second area 220 to switch between a flattened state and a bent state through deformation, in the flattened state, the second area 220 is planar, and the second area 220 and the first area 210 are positioned in the same plane; in the curved state, the second region 220 is curved. The second region 220 can be switched between the flattened state and the bent state by the deformation driving of the deformation driving part 300, so that the user can switch the state of the second region 220 according to the use requirements in different scenes.
The auxiliary driving device 500 is disposed in the inner cavity of the apparatus, the auxiliary driving device 500 includes a driving source 510 and a flexible transmission member 520, the driving source 510 may be a driving motor or other component with a driving function, one end of the flexible transmission member 520 is connected with the driving source 510, the deformation driving portion 300 is provided with a through hole, the flexible transmission member 520 is at least partially disposed in the through hole, and the driving source 510 drives the flexible transmission member 520 to move and rotate so as to drive the deformation driving portion 300 to move or adapt to the movement of the deformation driving portion 300. In other words, the driving source 510 outputs driving force to drive the deformation driving part 300 to deform through the flexible transmission member 520, thereby driving the second region 220 to switch between the flattened state and the bent state. In addition, when the second region 220 deforms (e.g., receives an external force such as a collision force), the second region 220 will deform the deformation driving portion 300, and the deformation driving portion 300 further deforms the flexible transmission member 520, so as to adapt to the movement of the deformation driving portion 300.
The buffering and energy absorbing device 400 is elastically supported between the deformation driving part 300 and the case 100. The buffering and energy-absorbing device 400 may be elastically deformed so as to be elastically supported between the deformation driving part 300 and the housing 100, and when the buffering and energy-absorbing device 400 receives a force from the deformation driving part 300, a reaction force is applied to the deformation driving part 300, thereby achieving the effect of supporting the deformation driving part 300. Alternatively, the cushioning energy absorber 400 may be a spring.
In this embodiment, when the second area 220 of the display screen 200 is in a curved state, the edge of the display screen 200 is curved, and this structure can provide visual impact and a good holding feel for the user. When the second area 220 of the display screen 200 is in the flattened state, the second area 220 of the display screen 200 is in a plane, and the second area 220 and the first area 210 are in the same plane, so that the display screen 200 does not have white lines due to reflection of light, the display effect of the display screen 200 is better, the viewing and playing of a game by a user are facilitated, and the user can be prevented from touching the display screen 200 by mistake. In addition, when the second area 220 of the display screen 200 is impacted, the buffering and energy absorbing device 400 can absorb the external force applied to the second area 220, so that the second area 220 is prevented from being damaged, and the service life of the electronic device can be prolonged.
Alternatively, in order to deform the deformation driving part 300 by the flexible transmission member 520 driven by a simpler structure, the penetration hole of the deformation driving part 300 may be provided with an internal thread, and the flexible transmission member 520 is provided with an external thread which is screw-engaged with the internal thread. When the driving source 510 outputs the driving force, the flexible transmission member 520 moves and rotates, and since the flexible transmission member 520 is coupled with the deformation driving part 300 by screw-coupling, the portion of the deformation driving part 300 coupled with the flexible transmission member 520 has a moving tendency, but the deformation driving part 300 is coupled with the second region 220, so that the second region 220 limits the movement of the deformation driving part 300, so that the deformation driving part 300 may be bent and deformed, thereby driving the second region 220 to switch between the flattened state and the bent state.
In a further embodiment, the auxiliary driving device 500 further includes a worm gear 530 and a worm 540, the driving source 510 is connected to the worm gear 530, the worm gear 530 is meshed with the worm 540, one end of the worm 540 is connected to one end of the flexible transmission member 520, and the driving source 510 drives the flexible transmission member 520 to move and rotate through the worm gear 530 and the worm 540. The gear transmission mode has the advantages of high transmission precision, good stability and the like, and the space occupied by the worm wheel 530 and the worm 540 is small, so that the occupation of the auxiliary driving device 500 on the space in the electronic equipment can be relieved.
In an alternative embodiment, the deformation driving part 300 includes support blocks 310, at least two support blocks 310 are distributed along a direction in which the middle of the display screen 200 extends to the edge, the support blocks 310 are sequentially hinged along a direction in which the middle of the display screen 200 extends to the edge, and alternatively, each support block 310 may be hinged by a hinge, so that an angle between the connected support blocks 310 is defined by the hinge, and the second region 220 is prevented from tilting up. One end of the flexible transmission member 520 passes through at least a portion of the support blocks 310, and the flexible transmission member 520 drives the support blocks 310 to rotate and move to drive the second region 220 to switch between the flattened state and the bent state, and the buffering and energy absorbing device 400 is hinged with at least one support block 310. So configured, the support blocks 310 can rotate relatively, so that the deformation driving part 300 is deformed, and the structure of the deformation driving part 300 is relatively simple. The shape of the support blocks 310 may be flexibly selected, alternatively, the support blocks 310 may be arranged in a bar-shaped structure along the extending direction of the edge of the display screen 200, and the cross-sectional shape thereof may be trapezoidal, and one side of the support block 310 connected to the second region 220 is larger in size and the other side is smaller in size, so that a deformation space is reserved for the support block 310, and at the same time, when adjacent support blocks 310 are contacted, the contact area is larger, thereby providing a larger supporting force.
Alternatively, in the flattened state, the flexible transmission 520 may be curved; in a curved state, the flexible transmission member 520 may be curved, in which state the curvature of the flexible transmission member 520 is greater than in a flattened state. In another embodiment, in the flattened state, the flexible transmission 520 is planar; in the bent state, the flexible transmission member 520 has a curved surface. In contrast, in the latter embodiment, when the second region 220 is flattened, the flexible driving member 520 is also in a plane, which may be parallel to the second region 220, so as to apply a more uniform supporting force to the second region 220, and increase the effective acting force acting on the second region 220, so that the second region 220 is not easily deformed, and the user can operate the second region 220 more conveniently.
In an alternative embodiment, the curved state described above includes a first curved state and a second curved state; in the first curved state, the second region 220 has a first curvature; in the second curved state, the second region 220 has a second curvature; wherein the first curvature is greater than the second curvature. When a user uses the electronic device, the bending state of the second area 220 of the display screen 200 can be switched under different use scenes, so that the curvature of the second area 220 can be switched between the first curvature and the second curvature, thereby meeting the requirement that the user uses the electronic device better under different scenes.
Alternatively, in order to simplify the structure of the buffering and energy absorbing device 400, the buffering and energy absorbing device 400 may include a base 410 and a telescopic rod 420, the base 410 being hinged with the housing 100, one end of the telescopic rod 420 being slidably connected with the base 410, and the other end of the telescopic rod 420 being hinged with the deformation driving part 300. Alternatively, the base 410 may be filled with a medium, which may be a liquid or a gas, through which the telescopic rod 420 may be pushed to slide with respect to the base 410, thereby driving the deformation driving part 300 to deform.
In a further alternative embodiment, the electronic device further includes a controller and a gravity sensor, the controller being coupled to the gravity sensor, the telescoping rod 420 having a contracted state, a first extended state, and a second extended state, the telescoping rod 420 being in the first extended state with the second region 220 in the flattened state; with the second region 220 in the second curved state, the telescoping rod 420 is in the second extended state; with the second region 220 in the first curved state, the telescoping rod 420 is in a contracted state; in case that the acceleration detected by the gravity sensor is greater than a preset threshold, the controller controls the telescopic link 420 to be in the second extended state. Specifically, when the electronic device falls, the gravity sensor detects the acceleration of the electronic device, and the controller controls the telescopic rod 420 to be in the second extending state under the condition that the acceleration detected by the gravity sensor is greater than a preset threshold value; when the second area 220 of the display screen 200 is impacted, the telescopic rod 420 is in the second extending state, so that the telescopic rod 420 can retract, and meanwhile, the displacement of the second area 220 is changed, so that acting force generated during the impact is counteracted, the buffering effect is achieved, and the second area 220 is further protected from being damaged.
Optionally, the buffering and energy absorbing device 400 is distributed at least two along a direction in which the middle of the display screen 200 extends toward the edge. In the process of deforming the buffering and energy absorbing devices 400, a plurality of buffering and energy absorbing devices 400 are arranged to apply acting force to the deformation driving part 300 at the same time, so that the supporting effect of the deformation driving part 300 on the second area 220 is improved.
Optionally, the buffering and energy absorbing device 400 is distributed at least two along the extending direction of the edge of the display screen 200. The second region 220 is in a strip structure along the extending direction of the edge of the display screen 200, so that at least two buffering and energy absorbing devices 400 are distributed along the extending direction of the edge of the display screen 200, different positions of the second region 220 can be better supported, the supporting effect is optimized, and the second region 220 is better protected.
In an alternative embodiment, the electronic device further comprises a folding mechanism 600, the folding mechanism 600 being sealingly connected between the second region 220 and the housing 100; with the second region 220 in the flattened state, the folding mechanism 600 is in the unfolded state; with the second region 220 in the flexed state, the folding mechanism 600 is in the folded state. In the case where the second region 220 is in the flattened state, the folding mechanism 600 is in the unfolded state, and the folding mechanism 600 in the unfolded state can prevent impurities in the external environment from entering into the internal space of the electronic device. In the case where the second region 220 is in the bent state, the folding mechanism 600 is in the folded state, and the folding mechanism 600 in the folded state may be hidden in the internal space of the electronic device so as to reduce the volume of the electronic device.

In the case where the second region 220 is in the flattened state, the elastic connection mechanism is in the extended state, and the elastic connection mechanism in the extended state can prevent impurities in the external environment from entering into the internal space of the electronic device. In the case that the second region 220 is in the bent state, the elastic connection mechanism is in the shortened state, and the volume of the elastic connection mechanism in the shortened state is reduced, and the elastic connection mechanism is not exposed to the electronic device, so that the miniaturization of the electronic device is facilitated; in addition, the internal space of the electronic equipment is not occupied, so that the layout of other components in the internal space of the electronic equipment is facilitated.
In a further alternative embodiment, the folding mechanism 600 or the elastic connection mechanism is provided with side keys which are exposed with the second region 220 in the flattened state. At this time, the user can control the electronic apparatus through the side key, for example, perform operations of switching music, increasing or decreasing volume, switching a use mode of the electronic apparatus, and the like. Under the condition that the second area 220 is in a bending state, the side key is in a hidden state, so that exposed parts of the electronic equipment are reduced, the attractiveness and the waterproofness of the electronic equipment are improved, the side key can be protected, and the side key is prevented from being collided with objects in the external environment to be triggered by mistake or even lose efficacy.
The embodiment of the application also provides a control method of the electronic device, which is applied to the electronic device described in any embodiment, and includes:

s130, when the input is the second input, the deformation driving unit 300 is controlled to drive the second region 220 in the curved state.
In the above control method, in the case that the input is the first input, the deformation driving portion 300 is controlled to drive the second area 220 to be in the flattened state, at this time, the second area 220 of the display screen 200 is in a plane, and the second area 220 and the first area 210 are in the same plane, the display screen 200 will not generate white lines due to reflection of light, the display effect of the display screen 200 is better, the user can watch and play the video, and the user can be prevented from touching the display screen 200 by mistake. In the case that the input is the second input, the deformation driving portion 300 is controlled to drive the second area 220 to be in a curved state, at this time, the second area of the display screen 200 is curved, and the second area 220 and the first area 210 form the display screen 200 with a curved structure, so that the display screen 200 with a curved structure is beneficial to improving the holding feel of the user.
As described above, when the bending states include the first bending state and the second bending state, the buffering and energy absorbing device 400 includes the base 410 and the telescopic link 420, and the telescopic link 420 has the contracted state, the first extended state, and the second extended state, the control method of the electronic device further includes:
