Therefore, when a user manipulates the flexible electronic device from the flat state to the folded state, for example, by manipulating the first housing 221, the first housing 221 and the second housing 231 are in a flat state and are adjacently disposed, as shown in fig. 14, when the first housing 221 is forced upward in the height direction D2, the first housing 221 will link the first outer support plate 222 and the first inner support plate 223, so that the first moving member 33 connected to the first inner support plate 223 rotates upward, that is, the first face portion 11 of the flexible screen 1 moves toward the second face portion 12, and during the rotation, as shown in fig. 14 and 15, the first connecting end 332 of the first moving member 33 moves upward, and the first moving end 331 slides away from the second substrate unit 23, more specifically, the first sliding pin 3311 slides along the first inner sliding hole 312 from the first inner flattened end 3121 to the first inner doubled end 3122, and the first sliding block 3312 synchronously slides along the first front bottom surface 313 to the position close to the first extending wall 212 along with the first sliding pin 3311, so that the first moving end 331 is close to the first extending wall 212, and the first moving end 331 pushes the first connecting end 332 upwards along the sliding process through the first inner sliding hole 312 having the circular arc shape, so that the first connecting end 332 protrudes from the base 21, and the first inner end 1 (see fig. 3) of the first inner support plate 223 connected to the first connecting end 332 is far away from the second substrate unit 23, in which case, the first inner support plate 223 and the first outer support plate 222 are in an upright state, and is located between the top support plate 24 and a side edge of the first extension wall 212.
Referring to fig. 16, when the first substrate unit 22 is forced upward in the height direction D2, the first housing 221 will link the first outer guide member set 35 to drive the first outer connecting member 39, so that the first outer connecting member 39 links the first link unit 43 to drive the transmission unit 45, and further links the second link unit 44, so that the second link unit 44 links the second outer connecting member 41 to drive the second outer guide member set 37, and thereby drives the second substrate unit 23 to synchronously rotate upward in the height direction D2.
When the second housing 231 rotates upward in the height direction D2, the second housing 231 will link the second outer support plate 232 and the second inner support plate 233, so that the second moving member 34 connected to the second inner support plate 233 rotates upward in the height direction D2, that is, the second face portion 12 of the flexible screen 1 moves toward the first face portion 11, and during the rotation, as shown in fig. 17 and 18, the second connecting end portion 342 of the second moving member 34 moves upward, the second moving end portion 341 slides away from the first base plate unit 22, more clearly, the second sliding pin 3411 slides from the second inner flattened end 3221 to the second inner doubled-over end 3222 along the second inner sliding hole 322, and the second sliding block 3412 slides along with the second sliding pin 3411 to a position close to the second extending wall 213 along the second front bottom surface 323, further, the second moving end portion 341 is close to the second extending wall 213, and the second moving end portion 341 pushes the second connecting end portion 342 upward in the sliding process through the second inner sliding hole 322 having the circular arc shape, so that the second connecting end portion 342 protrudes from the base 21, and a second inner end portion 2331 (see fig. 3) of the second inner support plate 233 connected to the second connecting end portion 342 is away from the first substrate unit 22, in which case, the second inner support plate 233 and the second outer support plate 232 are in an upright state and are located between the top support plate 24 and one side edge of the second extending wall 213. Accordingly, referring to fig. 19 and fig. 20, the first inner end portion 2231 of the first inner support plate 223 and the second inner end portion 2331 of the second inner support plate 233 are spaced apart to form a bending space 25 for bending the bending portion 13 of the flexible screen 1, thereby avoiding an over-bending condition.
In addition, referring to fig. 21 and fig. 22, as the first base plate unit 22 rotates upward in the height direction D2, the first inner support plate 223 synchronously drives the first outer guide member set 35, so that the first outer guide member set 35 slides relative to the first outer connecting member 39 in a direction away from the base 21, that is, the first outer flattened end 3572 of the first outer sliding hole 357 abuts against the first outer sliding pin 394 to convert into the first outer folded end 3571 of the first outer sliding hole 357 abuts against the first outer sliding pin 394, and the first outer auxiliary sliding pin 393 (fig. 9) moves in the first outer auxiliary sliding hole 359 (fig. 9) synchronously with the first outer sliding pin 394. On the other hand, as the second substrate unit 23 rotates upward in the height direction D2, the second inner support plate 233 synchronously links the second outer guide member set 37, so that the second outer guide member set 37 slides relative to the second outer connecting member 41 in a direction away from the base 21, that is, the second outer flattened end 3772 of the second outer sliding hole 377 abuts against the second outer sliding pin 414 and is converted into the second outer doubled-up end 3771 of the second outer sliding hole 377 abuts against the second outer sliding pin 414, and the second outer auxiliary sliding pin 413 (see fig. 9) moves in the second outer auxiliary sliding hole 379 (see fig. 9) synchronously with the second outer sliding pin 414. Therefore, the first substrate unit 22 and the second substrate unit 23 move in a direction away from the base 21 to stretch the first surface 11 and the second surface 12 of the flexible screen 1, thereby preventing the bending portion 13 from being excessively bent.
On the other hand, referring to fig. 23 to 25, for the first locking unit 47 and the second locking unit 48, in the flattened state, the first elastic element 473 applies a force to the first locking block 472, so that the first locking end 4724 of the first locking block 472 is pressed against the first outer front guiding inclined surface portion 3582A, and the user must overcome the friction force provided by the first outer front guiding inclined surface portion 3582A to the first locking end 4724 and the elastic force of the first elastic element 473 to move the first substrate unit 22. As the first substrate unit 22 rotates upward, the first outer guide set 35 slides as described above, so that the first locking block 472 is linked to compress the first elastic member 473, so that the first locking end 4724 can move to the first outer guide plane 3581 and move along the first outer guide plane 3581 to the first outer rear guide inclined plane 3582B to the folded state, and when the first locking end 4724 abuts against the first outer rear guide inclined plane 3582B, the user must overcome the friction force provided by the first outer rear guide inclined plane 3582B to the first locking end 4724 and the elastic force of the first elastic member 473 to move the first substrate unit 22 back to the flattened state. In contrast, the second locking unit 48 is actuated in the same way as the first locking unit 47, and therefore, the description thereof is omitted.
Of course, the number of the first inner guide 31 and the second inner guide 32 can be adjusted according to the sliding stability of the first moving member 33 and the second moving member 34, but one first inner guide 31 and one second inner guide 32 can also be respectively sleeved on the first moving member 33 and the second moving member 34, so as to allow the first moving member 33 and the second moving member 34 to slide.
