The above terminal device may be a mobile terminal or a wearable electronic device, where the mobile terminal includes a mobile phone, a notebook and a tablet computer, and the wearable electronic device includes a smart watch, and the embodiment of the disclosure is not limited.

The ring structure provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure may include: a plurality of nested rings. The ring diameters of a plurality of rings nested in the ring structure are different, and the rings are all conductor rings, so that part or the whole of the ring structure can be used as a component of a radiator to participate in the radiation and/or reception of wireless signals.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the second ring rotating relative to the first ring may include:

the second ring rotates and the first ring is fixed, so that the relative position between the second ring and the first ring is changed;

alternatively, the first and second electrodes may be,

the second ring is stationary and the first ring rotates, such that the relative position between the second ring and the first ring changes;

alternatively, the first and second electrodes may be,

the first ring and the second ring rotate simultaneously, but the rotation angles of the first ring and the second ring are different, so that the relative position between the second ring and the second ring is changed.

The first ring is provided with an accommodating space therein. The accommodating space can be used for accommodating a printed circuit board, a display screen or a camera which is included by the terminal equipment. The printed circuit board can be used for bearing various devices in the terminal equipment; the display screen is used for displaying information; the camera is used for collecting images.

It should be noted that, when different functional modules are disposed in the first ring, the second ring may be a frame located outside the first ring and corresponding to the functional modules.

In some embodiments, within the first annular ring, a printed circuit board and a display screen are disposed; the second ring is a frame of the terminal device.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the first ring may be a middle frame of the casing in the terminal device, and the second ring may be a side frame of the casing in the terminal device. The middle frame is used for bearing the printed circuit board and the display screen.

It should be noted that the casing of the terminal device of the embodiment of the present disclosure is no longer a traditional middle frame and a frame that are relatively fixedly disposed, but the frame can rotate relative to the middle frame. So, the casing design of this disclosed embodiment is more nimble, has science and technology and feels.

In other embodiments, a camera is disposed within the first annular ring; the second ring is a frame of a camera of the terminal device. That is, the camera of the embodiments of the present disclosure is no longer a traditional one-piece design, but the bezel of the camera can rotate relative to the camera. So, the camera design of this disclosed embodiment is more nimble, has science and technology and feels.

The at least two radiating structures may be spaced apart and connected at different locations in the second ring. The radiation structure may be a structure formed of a radiator of an Inverted-F Antenna (IFA), a radiator of a helical Antenna, a radiator of a half-wavelength dipole Antenna, or the like.

It is to be noted that the at least two radiation structures may be the same type of radiation structure, or may be different types of radiation structures. For example, the terminal device includes two radiating structures, which may both be structures formed by radiators of the IFA antenna; one radiation structure may be a structure formed by a radiator of an IFA antenna, and the other radiation structure may be a structure formed by a radiator of a helical antenna, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present disclosure

The radiation structure is connected with the second ring and can be attached to the inner surface of the second ring, which faces the first ring; the radiating structures can also be embedded in grooves on the ring body of the second ring.

It should be noted that, the radiation structure is embedded in the groove of the second ring, so that the area occupied by the radiation structure on the terminal device can be reduced, and the space utilization rate of the terminal device can be improved.

In an embodiment of the disclosure, a gap is provided between the first ring and the second ring, and the conductive structure is located in the gap. The conductive structure may be a structure composed of a metal or an alloy.

The conductive structure includes a free end and a fixed end. Above-mentioned stiff end is fixed with a ring in the tourus structure, and another ring contact in free end and the tourus structure includes: the fixed end is fixed with the first circular ring, and the free end is contacted with the second circular ring; or the fixed end is fixed with the second circular ring, and the free end is contacted with the first circular ring.

That is, the fixed end may be fixed to both the first ring and the second ring. The free end is movable relative to the fixed end, the free end being in contact with another ring in the ring structure.

The length from the free end to the fixed end of the conductive structure is larger than the distance between the first circular ring and the second circular ring, so that the stability of conductive connection between the conductive structure and the first circular ring and the second circular ring can be ensured; meanwhile, the fixed end is only fixed on one circular ring, so that when two circular rings in the circular ring structure move relatively, the contact position of the conductive structure and the other circular ring is changed.

In this way the length of the path between the feed line and the radiating structure, through which the current flows, is varied, this length being constituted by the conductive structure, and the portion of the ring that is in contact with the free end of the conductive structure.

Illustratively, the conductive structure includes, but is not limited to, a conductive dome.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the terminal device further includes a radio frequency front end module, and the feeder line can transmit a first electrical signal provided by the radio frequency front end module to the radiation structure; and the second electric signal obtained by converting the radiation structure can be transmitted to the radio frequency front-end module.

The feeder line is connected with the first circular ring, the radiation structure is arranged on the second circular ring, and the conductive structure is connected between the first circular ring and the second circular ring. That is to say, the radiation structure can be indirectly connected with the feeder line through the conductive structure, the first circular ring and the second circular ring, and then the function of receiving and dispatching wireless signals of the terminal equipment is realized.

In the embodiment of the disclosure, when the contact position of the free end and the first ring is different, the first distance between the contact position of the free end and the first ring and the feeder line on the first ring is different, and further, the lengths of the conductive structure and the first ring in the ring structure, which are used as the radiator together with the radiation structure, are different.

When the contact position of the free end is different from that of the second ring, the contact position of the free end and the second ring is different from the second distance between the contact position of the free end and the second ring and the radiation structure on the second ring, so that the lengths of the conductive structure and the second ring in the ring structure, which are used as a radiator together with the radiation structure, are different.

The first distance or the second distance is positively correlated to the length of the radiator. For example, the greater the first distance, the longer the length of the radiator; the greater the second distance, the longer the length of the radiator.

In some embodiments, the length of the radiator is inversely related to the frequency at which the radiator transmits and receives wireless signals.

That is, the frequency of transmitting and receiving the wireless signal when the radiator length is long is smaller than the frequency of transmitting and receiving the wireless signal when the radiator length is short. Therefore, the length of the radiator is different, and the frequency band in which the radiator can work is also different. For example, the radiator may operate in a frequency band from 600MHz to sub (sub)6G, that is, may cover a 4G frequency band, a sub 6G frequency band, a GPS frequency band, and a WiFi frequency band.

Illustratively, when the terminal device is provided with two radiating structures, as shown in fig. 2, the terminal device may correspondingly form two radiators. The location and feed point on the two radiators may have 5 different relative positions with respect to the first ring when the second ring is rotated one revolution with respect to the first ring.

The length of the radiator at the relative positions A and E is greater than the length of the radiator at the relative positions B and D; the length of the radiator at the relative position B and the relative position D is greater than that at the relative position C.

When the location and the feed point on the two radiators have a relative position a with respect to the first circular ring, the center frequency of the wireless signal radiated by the two radiators is low. When the ground and the feed point on the two radiators have a relative position B with respect to the first circular ring, the center frequency of the wireless signal radiated by the two radiators increases. When the location and the feed point on the two radiators have a relative position C with respect to the first ring, the center frequency of the radio signal radiated by the two radiators reaches a maximum value. When the position on the two radiators and the feed point have the relative position D relative to the first circular ring, the central frequency of the wireless signals radiated by the two radiators is reduced and is smaller than the central frequency corresponding to the relative position C. When the position and the feed point on the two radiators have the relative positions of E relative to the first circular ring, the central frequency of the wireless signals radiated by the two radiators is continuously reduced and is smaller than the central frequency corresponding to the relative position of D.

It can be understood that, in the embodiments of the present disclosure, the contact position of the free end with the first circular ring or the second circular ring is different, and the lengths of the conductive structure, the first circular ring and the radiating structure, which together function as a radiator, are different. That is to say, the embodiment of the present disclosure transmits and receives the wireless signal by using the conductive structure, the first ring, and the radiation structure as the radiator, and can increase the radiation area of the terminal device and further improve the radiation efficiency of the terminal device, compared with transmitting and receiving the wireless signal by using a separate radiation structure. Meanwhile, the length of the radiator of the terminal equipment can be changed by adjusting the relative positions of the first circular ring and the second circular ring, so that the frequency of receiving and transmitting wireless signals can be changed, the receiving and transmitting of the wireless signals with different frequencies can be realized through the same structure, and the terminal equipment has the characteristics of multiple radiation frequency bands and strong communication function. In addition, the relative position of the first circular ring and the second circular ring can be changed according to the requirements of different scenes, so that the purpose of adjusting the receiving and transmitting frequency of the radiating body is achieved, the receiving and transmitting requirements of different scenes can be met, the receiving and transmitting performance of the current scene is improved, and the terminal equipment can be more intelligent.

In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 3a and 3b, the first ring 101 comprises: a conductive layer 101a facing the second ring 102; the conductive layer 101a is connected to the feed line 105.

In the embodiment of the disclosure, the conductive layer arranged on the first circular ring is connected with the feeder line, and correspondingly, the fixed end of the conductive structure is fixed on the second circular ring and connected with the radiation structure; the free end of the conductive structure is in contact with the conductive layer on the first ring. In this way, the feed line can establish an electrical connection with the radiating structure through the conductive layer and the conductive structure on the first annular ring.

It should be noted that the conductive layer has a first contact position for contacting the free end, and the conductive layer has a first connection position for connecting to the feed line. The conductive structure and the first ring and the radiation structure are used as a radiator together, and the radiator comprises: the conductive region, the conductive structure and the radiating structure in the conductive layer between the first contact location to the first connection location together act as a radiator.

In the embodiment of the disclosure, when the second ring rotates and the second ring has different relative positions with respect to the first ring, the contact positions of the free end and the conductive layer are different, which results in different lengths of the conductive region from the first contact position to the first connection position, and thus makes the length of the radiator different.

It should be noted that the conductive layer may surround the outer surface of the first ring, and may also cover the contact trace between the free end and the first ring when the second ring has different relative positions with respect to the first ring. Thus, the conductive layer is always in contact with the free end when the second ring rotates.

Illustratively, the conductive layer may be composed of a metal or alloy material.

It can be understood that, by providing the conductive layer connected to the feeder line on the first circular ring, the electrical connection between the radiating structure and the feeder line can be realized, and thus, the function of the terminal device for transceiving wireless signals can be realized when the second circular ring rotates.

In other embodiments, the second ring comprises: a conductive ring facing the first circular ring; the conductive ring is connected with the radiation structure.

That is to say, the conductive ring arranged on the second circular ring is connected with the radiation structure, and correspondingly, the fixed end of the conductive structure is fixed with the first circular ring and is connected with the feeder line; the free end of the conductive structure is in contact with the conductive ring on the second circular ring. Thus, the feeder line can establish electrical connection with the radiating structure through the conductive ring and the conductive structure on the second circular ring.

It should be noted that there is a second contact location on the conductive ring with the free end contact and a second connection location on the conductive layer with the radiating structure connection. The conductive structure and the first ring and the radiation structure are used as a radiator together, and the radiator comprises: the conductive area from the second contact position to the second connection position in the conductive loop, the conductive structure and the radiating structure together act as a radiator.

In the embodiment of the disclosure, when the second ring rotates and the second ring has different relative positions with respect to the first ring, the contact positions of the free end and the conductive ring are different, which results in different lengths of the conductive region from the second contact position to the second connection position, and thus makes the length of the radiator different. The contact positions of the free end and the conductive ring are different, so that the components of the radiator are different, and the positions of current flowing through the circular ring structure, generated by the wireless signal receiving and transmitting in the radiator, are different.

It should be noted that the conductive ring can be covered on the contact track of the free end and the second ring when the second ring has different relative positions relative to the first ring. Thus, when the second ring rotates, the conductive ring is always in contact with the free end.

It can be understood that, the conductive ring connected with the radiation structure is arranged on the second circular ring, so that the electrical connection between the radiation structure and the feeder line can be realized, and further, the function of receiving and transmitting wireless signals by the terminal equipment can be realized when the second circular ring rotates.

In an embodiment of the disclosure, the second ring has a center of rotation. When the first ring is fixedly arranged and the second ring rotates, the first position and the second position are symmetrically distributed on two sides of the rotation center by taking the rotation center as the symmetry center.

It can be understood that, by rotating the second ring relative to the first ring, the position of the second ring relative to the first ring can be changed, and then the direction of the second radiator can be changed, so as to meet the transceiving requirement of the current scene.

In some embodiments, the terminal device further comprises:

the shaft sleeve is fixedly connected with the second circular ring.

In the disclosed embodiment, the sleeve is rotatable relative to the axis. The second ring is connected with the shaft sleeve. Therefore, the second ring can be driven to rotate when the shaft sleeve rotates. The shaft sleeve can also be used for supporting the second circular ring, so that a fixed gap is formed between the second circular ring and the first circular ring to accommodate the conductive structure, and the rotation reliability of the second circular ring relative to the first circular ring is improved.

It should be noted that, the terminal device may be provided with a driving module to drive the shaft sleeve to rotate, and then the second ring rotates along with the rotation of the shaft sleeve. For example, the terminal device may detect the transceiving performance of the current radiator, and when the transceiving performance of the radiator is poor, the driving module drives the shaft sleeve to rotate to drive the second ring to rotate, so as to adjust the transceiving performance of the radiator.

Illustratively, the drive module includes, but is not limited to, a motor.

In the embodiment of the disclosure, the terminal device may further include a second ring configured to rotate under the action of an external force. For example, when the user finds that the transceiving performance of the terminal device is poor, the second ring can be driven to rotate by an external force so as to adjust the transceiving performance of the radiator. Therefore, the receiving and sending performance of the radiating body can be improved, and the man-machine interaction can be increased, so that the terminal equipment is more intelligent.

It can be understood that the terminal device of the embodiment of the present disclosure can realize the rotation of the second ring through the rotating shaft.

In some embodiments, the third position of the shaft passes through the center of the first ring and the fourth position of the shaft passes through the center of the second ring; the third position is different from the fourth position;

the ring body width of second ring is greater than the ring body width of first ring, and the ring body edge of first ring aligns with the ring body edge of second ring.

In the embodiment of the disclosure, different positions on the rotating shaft are distributed to pass through the ring center of the first circular ring and the ring center of the second circular ring. The third position and the fourth position can be positions of two opposite end parts of the rotating shaft respectively; the third position may be a position where one end of the rotating shaft is located, and the fourth position may be a position between two opposite ends, which is not limited in the embodiments of the disclosure.

It should be noted that, the first ring and the second ring may both be connected to the shaft sleeve, and thus both can rotate around the shaft center. When the first ring and the second ring both rotate around the axis, the first ring and the second ring have different relative positions. For example, the first ring and the second ring may rotate in different directions and at different speeds.

The width of the second ring is larger than that of the first ring. That is, when both the second ring and the first ring are rotating, the rotation of the second ring does not interfere with the rotation of the first ring. In this way, interference between the second ring and the first ring can be reduced at the time of rotation.

The edge of the first ring is aligned with the edge of the second ring. That is, the ring body edge of the first ring is not exposed to the area surrounded by the ring body edge of the second ring. Therefore, a regular ring body can be formed, and the portable electronic device is convenient for a user to carry.

In some embodiments, the first ring is fixed to the shaft center. That is, the first ring does not rotate, and the second ring can rotate around the rotating shaft. Therefore, the terminal equipment can realize that the second ring and the first ring have different relative positions only by rotating the second ring, and the structural design can be simplified.

the fixed end of the conductive structure is fixed on the second circular ring;

the free end of the conductive structure is embedded in the guide groove and rotates in the guide direction of the guide groove along with the second ring when the second ring rotates relative to the first ring.

In the embodiment of the disclosure, the conductive layer on the first ring may be disposed on the groove wall and/or the groove bottom of the guide groove. The free end can be in contact with the conductive layer when the conductive structure follows the second ring to rotate in the guiding direction of the guiding groove.

It should be noted that the guiding direction may be a rotation direction of the free end around the first ring.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the terminal device may be provided with a guide groove on a contact track of the free end and the first ring when the second ring has a different relative position with respect to the first ring. So, can make the better cooperation of guiding groove and free end.

The free end is embedded in the guide groove. The width of the free end may be greater than the width of the notch of the guide slot. Therefore, the condition that the second circular ring falls off from the first circular ring can be reduced, and the connection reliability is improved.

It can be understood that the second circular ring can rotate around the first circular ring by arranging the guide groove on the first circular ring.

It can be understood that the first circular ring and the second circular ring are located on the same plane, and a regular ring body can be formed, so that the portable electronic device is convenient for a user to carry.

It can be understood that the inner surface of the second circular ring is a curved surface, and the radiation structure is injection-molded on the inner surface of the second circular ring through a liquid crystal polymer process, so that the reliability of connection between the radiation structure and the second circular ring can be improved.

An embodiment of the present disclosure further provides a manufacturing method of a terminal device, as shown in fig. 4, where the terminal device is the terminal device in the first aspect, and the manufacturing method includes:

s1001, arranging a second circular ring in a circular ring structure at the periphery of a first circular ring in the circular ring structure, wherein the second circular ring can rotate relative to the first circular ring;
