Embodiment
Now the preferred embodiments of the present invention are described in detail with this reference is provided, and illustrate in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
Fig. 2 shows the perspective view of the structure of the visual angle controller of display module in the portable terminal according to an embodiment of the invention, and Fig. 3 shows the sectional view that the visual angle controller of display module is assemblied in the state on the portable terminal.
Shown in Fig. 2 and 3, comprise a display module 40 and a position compensation unit 50 that is used for the opposite direction inclination display module 40 of portable terminal incline direction according to the visual angle controller of display module in the portable terminal of the present invention
Display module 40 is realized by liquid-crystal apparatus (LCD), and the present invention is applied to all types of portable terminals.
Position compensation unit 50 comprises a position compensation substrate 10, is connected on the terminal shell 5 these substrate 10 rotatabilities, and tilts along the direction identical with the direction of portable terminal inclination; One bearing unit 30, the one end is connected with position compensation substrate 10, and the other end is connected with display module 40, is used to supporting display module 40 and tilts to the rightabout that position compensation substrate 10 tilts; One first hinge-unit 20 is used for position compensation substrate 10 rotatably is connected terminal shell; And one second hinge-unit (not shown) is used for display module 40 rotatably is connected terminal shell.
Position compensation substrate 10 comprises the rotation projection 14 that lays respectively at this substrate both side surface, and it rotatably is combined in first hinge-unit 20 on the terminal shell 5; And the counterweight 12 that lays respectively at these substrate two ends, be used for the center of gravity that transferring position compensates substrate 10.The center of gravity of this counterweight 12 transferring position compensation substrate 10 makes this position compensation substrate 10 to tilt with a direction identical with the direction of portable terminal inclination.
First hinge-unit 20 forms to have apart from terminal shell 5 lower surface certain height, and has a rotation hole 22, is used for the rotation projection 14 on link position compensation substrate 10 1 sides.
One end of bearing unit 30 is connected with the upper surface chain-bar type of position compensation substrate 10, and the other end is connected with the lower surface chain-bar type of display module 40.Bearing unit 30 is made up of one first bearing unit element 32 and one second bearing unit element 34, they along to diagonally opposing corner direction inclination link position compensation substrate 10 and display module 40, are used to support display module 40 and make display module 40 to tilt with the direction opposite with position compensation substrate 10 incline directions respectively.Leave certain interval between the first and second bearing unit elements 32 and 34, and mutually be connected to position compensation substrate 10 and display module 40 along the diagonally opposing corner direction across.For example, when position compensation substrate 10 moves with portable terminal, and when causing the mass centre changing of position compensation substrate 10, first bearing unit 32 moves down based on first hinge-unit 20, and second bearing unit 34 moves up based on first hinge-unit 20.
Be connected in the lower surface of display module 40 between first and second bearing units 32 and 34 with certain interval.And be formed with a rotation projection 42 on the second hinge-unit (not shown) that is used to be rotatably connected to terminal shell 5 on the both side surface of display module 40.When terminal shell 5 tilted, display module 40 can tilt to the opposite direction of the direction of portable terminal inclination by the action effect of first and second support elements 32 and 34, keeps level thus.Preferably on terminal shell 5, provide the rotation space of an abundance for rotating display module 40 reposefully, and display module 40 angle identical with portable terminal that can tilt towards the rightabout that portable terminal tilts.
Fig. 4 shows the sectional view according to an operating state of the visual angle controller of display module of the present invention.
Referring to Fig. 4, with the operation of describing in more detail according to the visual angle controller of display module of the present invention.
As shown in Figure 4, the portable terminal of putting when level moves the center of gravity of these position compensation substrates 10 when 1. 2. direction tilts by the counterweight 12 that provides on the position compensation substrate 10.Thus, an end of position compensation substrate 10 is along 3. direction rotation, and the other end of position compensation substrate 10 is along 4. direction rotation.Because the rotation of position compensation substrate 10, first bearing unit 32 that chain-bar type is connected on the position compensation substrate 10 is mobile along 3. being directed downwards, and second bearing unit 34 moves up along 4. direction.
Thus, on to the angular direction, it is mobile along 3. being directed downwards that display module 40 chain-bar types are connected in that end of first bearing unit 32, and another to the angular direction on, the other end that display module 40 chain-bar types are connected in second bearing unit 34 moves up along 4. direction.
Thus, display module 40 keeps level with eyes of user, so that the user can keep the unchanged view angle with display module 40 always.
According to one embodiment of present invention, the situation of only visual angle controller being rotated on above-below direction is described.Yet, according to another embodiment of the invention, it also can be a visual angle controller with four bearing units, these four bearing units so that the angular direction is intersected mutually but and non-warping chain-bar type together connect display module and position compensation substrate, so that visual angle controller can not only rotate up and down, and can left-right rotation.
According to another embodiment of the invention, the visual angle controller of display module comprises a display module in the portable terminal, a gradient sensor that is used to detect the portable terminal gradient, and a driver element, be used for according to the detected amount of taper of gradient sensor the counter-rotation of display module to the direction of portable terminal inclination.
When portable terminal tilted, after the gradient sensor measured the gradient of portable terminal, driver module drove display module and tilts to the opposite direction that portable terminal tilts, and its angle is identical with the angle that portable terminal tilts.Thus, can compensate the visual angle error that tilts to cause by portable terminal.
From the above mentioned, among the present invention, provide position compensation unit and driver element to make display module tilt in the terminal shell, therefore remain the level of display module towards the opposite direction that portable terminal tilts.Therefore, even portable terminal tilts, user's visual angle still can maintain a good state, thereby the user can more easily confirm to be presented at the information on the display module.
Under the situation that does not break away from spirit of the present invention or inner characteristic, the present invention can have the description of various ways, and be to be understood that any minutia in the description that the above embodiments are not limited to carry out the front, except as otherwise noted, otherwise should be interpreted as being limited to the more wide in range scope in the spirit and scope of the present invention in the accompanying Claim book, and the interior institute of the bounds that drops on claim changes and revises, or the equivalent of these boundses all should be included in the accompanying Claim.
