Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
Fig. 1 is a schematic block diagram of a foldable electronic device 100 provided in an embodiment of the present application. A foldable electronic device 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application can be viewed along the-Z direction shown in fig. 1, so as to obtain the schematic structural diagram shown in fig. 2.
The foldable electronic device 100 may be a mobile phone, a tablet computer, an electronic reader, a notebook computer, a wearable device, or other electronic devices with a folding function. The embodiments shown in fig. 1 and 2 are illustrated by way of example of a foldable handset. The foldable electronic device 100 shown in fig. 1 and 2 is currently in an unfolded state.
Foldable electronic device 100 may include display screen 110, side frame 121, cover 122, side frame 123, cover 124, hinge 125, and cover 126.
The pattern filled with the dot matrix in fig. 1 and 2 may schematically represent the display screen 110. In some embodiments, the display screen 110 may comprise a flexible display screen. The flexible display screen may have characteristics of strong flexibility and flexibility, and may provide a user with a new interaction mode based on the bendable characteristic. The display panel of the flexible display panel may be, for example, any one of a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD), an organic light-emitting diode (OLED), an active-matrix organic light-emitting diode (active-matrix organic light-emitting diode), an AMOLED, a flexible light-emitting diode (FLED), a quantum dot light-emitting diode (QLED), and the like, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.
The display screen 110 may include a display portion 111 disposed opposite to the cover 122, a display portion 112 disposed opposite to the cover 124, and a foldable display portion 113 disposed opposite to the rotation shaft 125. The foldable display part 113 may be connected between the display part 111 and the display part 112.
The display portion 111 may be disposed in parallel with the cover 122 at an interval. A cover 126 is provided on the side of the display section 111 remote from the foldable display section 113. The side frame 121 may surround the outer circumference of the cover 122. The display portion 111 and the cover 126 may be disposed in an area surrounded by the side frame 121. The display portion 111 and the cover 122 may be located at both sides of the side frame 121. The display portion 111 and the cover 126 may be located on the same side of the side frame 121. The distance between the display portion 111 and the cover 122 may be smaller than the distance between the cover 126 and the cover 122.
The projection area of display unit 111 on cover 122 and the projection area of cover 126 on cover 122 may not overlap each other. The side bezel 121 includes a bezel portion 1211 disposed opposite to the display portion 111 and a bezel portion 1212 disposed opposite to the cover 126. The dimension of the frame portion 1211 in the Z direction (the Z direction may be perpendicular to the plane of the panel of the display screen 110, and the Z direction may be, for example, the height direction, i.e., the height direction of the electronic device, and the Z direction may also be the thickness direction of the electronic device) shown in fig. 1 may be smaller than the dimension of the frame portion 1212 in the Z direction. That is, the frame portion 1212 protrudes away from the cover 122 with respect to the frame portion 1211.
The display portion 112 may be disposed in parallel with the cover 124 at a distance. The display portion 112 and the cover 124 can be located at two sides of the side frame 123. The side frame 123 may surround the outer circumference of the cover 124 and the outer circumference of the display portion 112.
In an embodiment provided by the present application, the cover and the side frame may be two parts of the housing of the foldable electronic device 100, and the cover and the side frame may be connected in a manner that does not belong to assembling manners such as clamping, adhering, welding, riveting, clearance fitting, and the like. The connection between the cover and the side frame is often difficult to divide. In another embodiment provided herein, the cover and side frame may be two distinct pieces. The cover body and the side frame can be assembled into a whole in modes such as clamping, adhering, welding, riveting, clearance fit and the like.
The hinge 125 may be disposed between the side frames 121 and 123. The hinge 125 may be connected between the cover 122 and the cover 124. The foldable display portion 113 of the display screen 110 may be fixed to the hinge 125. Under the action of the rotation shaft 125, the cover 122 and the cover 124 can move toward or away from each other. Accordingly, the display portion 111 and the display portion 112 of the display screen 110 may be close to or far from each other, so that the display screen 110 may be folded or unfolded. In the process of moving the cover 122, the cover 122 may drive the display portion 111 and the cover 126 to move together.
In one embodiment, the hinge 125 may include, for example, a first spindle assembly, a first hinge assembly, and a second hinge assembly. The first hinge assembly may be fixed with the cover 122 and the second hinge assembly may be fixed with the cover 124, with the first and second hinge assemblies being rotatable relative to the first spindle assembly. Through the movement of the first hinge assembly and the second hinge assembly, the cover 122 and the cover 124 can be driven to move, so as to realize the unfolding state and the folding state of the foldable electronic device 100.
In this application, the foldable electronic device 100 being in the unfolded state may mean that the foldable electronic device 100 is currently unfolded and the unfolding degree of the foldable electronic device 100 is maximized. At this time, the angle between the cover 122 and the cover 124 can be regarded as 180 °. The cover 122 and the cover 124 may be considered to be located on the same plane. Similarly, the angle between the display portion 111 and the display portion 112 may be regarded as 180 °. The display portion 111 and the display portion 112 may be regarded as being located on the same plane.
In this application, the foldable electronic device 100 being in the folded state may mean that the foldable electronic device 100 is currently bent and the degree of bending of the foldable electronic device 100 is maximized. At this time, the cover 122 and the cover 124 may be disposed in parallel, and the distance between the cover 122 and the cover 124 is the smallest; similarly, the display portion 111 and the display portion 112 may be disposed parallel to each other, and the spacing distance between the display portion 111 and the display portion 112 is smallest. At this time, the display portion 111 and the display portion 112 may be regarded as being located on two different planes parallel to each other.
The foldable electronic device 100 may be divided into a main body portion 101, a main body portion 102, a foldable portion 103, and a protruding portion 104. The foldable part 103 may be connected between the main body part 101 and the main body part 102, and the protrusion part 104 may be located on a side of the main body part 101 away from the foldable part 103. The side of the main body 101 away from the display screen 110 and the side of the protruding part 104 away from the display screen 110 are coplanar. In this application, coplanar arrangement may refer to coplanar arrangement, and the like. The side of the protruding portion 104 close to the display screen 110 protrudes relative to the side of the main body portion 101 close to the display screen 110.
The main body portion 101 may correspond to the display portion 111, and a portion of the foldable electronic device 100 disposed opposite to the display portion 111 (including a portion of the cover 122 disposed opposite to the display portion 111 and the bezel portion 1211 of the side bezel 121).
The main body portion 102 may correspond to the display portion 112, and a portion of the foldable electronic device 100 (including the cover 124 and the side frame 123) disposed opposite the display portion 112.
The foldable portion 103 may correspond to the foldable display portion 113, and a portion (including the hinge 125) of the foldable electronic device 100 disposed opposite to the foldable display portion 113.
The protrusion 104 may correspond to the cover 126, and the portion of the foldable electronic device 100 disposed opposite the cover 126 (including the portion of the cover 122 disposed opposite the cover 126 and the bezel portion 1212 of the side bezel 121).
The protrusion 104, or alternatively, the space defined by the cover 122, the side frame 121, and the cover 126, may be used to accommodate devices of the foldable electronic device 100, such as a lens, a light source, etc. The lens may be used to capture an image. The light source may be, for example, a flash lamp, but also a projection light source, wherein the projection light source may have a function of projecting an image. In some embodiments, the projection light source may also act as a flash.
Since the protruding portion 104 has a relatively large space in the Y direction (the Y direction may be parallel to the rotation axis 125, for example, the Y direction may be a length direction of the foldable electronic device 100 in the folded state) shown in fig. 2 and the Z direction shown in fig. 1, a lens with more functions and better performance may be disposed on the protruding portion 104, and in some embodiments, a plurality of lenses may be disposed on the protruding portion 104. The foldable electronic device 100 may perform a photographing function with relatively high quality through one or more lenses on the protrusion 104. In the embodiment shown in fig. 1 and 2, the protrusion 104 may house therein a lens 131 and a lens 132. The cover 126 may be provided with a light inlet a and a light inlet b. The light inlet a may be disposed corresponding to the lens 131, and light passing through the light inlet a may be incident into the lens 131, so that the lens 131 may capture external light. The light inlet b may be disposed corresponding to the lens 132, and light passing through the light inlet b may be incident on the lens 132, so that the lens 131 may capture external light. In some embodiments, the lens 131 and the lens 132 may have different shooting functions, and the lens 131 and the lens 132 may complete shooting in different scenes, respectively. In other embodiments, lens 131 and lens 132 may cooperate in combination to complete a shot.
In some embodiments, the protrusion 104 may house a light source 133 therein. The cover 126 may be provided with a light inlet c. The light inlet c may be disposed corresponding to the light source 133, and light emitted by the light source 133 may pass through the light inlet c and be emitted from the foldable electronic device 100. When the foldable electronic device 100 is in the unfolded state and the user faces the display screen 110 of the foldable electronic device 100, the user may face the lens 131, the lens 132, and the light source 133 of the foldable electronic device 100. The lens 131 and the lens 132 can photograph the face of the user relatively easily. The light emitted by the light source 133 may be more easily observed by a user.
In one embodiment, the light source 133 may emit light toward a user, for example. The light source 133 may work in cooperation with a lens to realize night portrait photographing. In another embodiment, the light source 133 may project an image on a side of the foldable electronic device 100 near the user so that the user can observe the image projected by the light source 133.
In some embodiments, the cover 122 or 124 of the foldable electronic device 100 may be used to form a housing of the foldable electronic device 100. In other embodiments, the side of the foldable electronic device 100 away from the display screen 110 may be provided with the display screen 130, and the cover 122 or the cover 124 may be a transparent cover plate on the display screen 130, which may be used to protect the internal components of the display screen 130.
A foldable electronic device 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application can be viewed along the Y direction shown in fig. 2, so as to obtain the schematic structure shown in fig. 3.
Referring to fig. 2 and 3, a display screen 130 is disposed on a side of the foldable electronic device 100 away from the display screen 110. The cover 122 of the foldable electronic device 100 is a transparent cover for the display 130. That is, the display panel 130 may be disposed opposite to the display portion 111 of the display panel 110. The display 130 may correspond to the main body 101 of the foldable electronic device 100. In the embodiment shown in fig. 3, the display 130 may also be disposed opposite the cover 126. That is, the display screen 130 may also correspond to the protrusion 104 of the foldable electronic device 100.
When the foldable electronic device 100 is in the unfolded state and the user faces the display screen 110 of the foldable electronic device 100, the display screen 130 may be located on the back side of the foldable electronic device 100, and the display screen 130 is relatively difficult for the user to observe.
A foldable electronic device 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application can be viewed along the Z direction shown in fig. 3, so as to obtain the schematic structure shown in fig. 4.
In some embodiments, a side of foldable electronic device 100 having display screen 130 may be provided with lens 134. In one embodiment, the lens 134 may be disposed at the upper left, upper right (as in (a) of fig. 4), or upper middle (as in (b) of fig. 4) of the foldable electronic device 100. In other embodiments, lens 134 may be disposed in other locations of foldable electronic device 100. Lens 134 may also not be limited to the specific shape shown in fig. 4.
In one possible scenario, a lens receiving cavity may be disposed on the display screen 130, and the lens 134 may be disposed in the lens receiving cavity. The display screen 130 may have a light inlet d, and the light inlet d may be disposed corresponding to the lens 134, so that light passing through the light inlet d may enter the lens 134, and the lens 134 may capture external light. So that display screen 130 may be positioned around lens 134. In other possible scenarios, the light inlet d and the lens 134 may be disposed outside the display screen 130. To achieve a relatively large screen ratio, the size of lens 134 is relatively small. Therefore, the function of the lens 134 is relatively simplified as compared with the lens 131 and the lens 132 provided on the protruding portion 104.
In this application, according to a user's habit of using the foldable electronic device 100, an upper portion of the foldable electronic device 100 may refer to a portion of the foldable electronic device 100 where an earpiece is provided, and a lower portion of the foldable electronic device 100 may refer to a portion of the foldable electronic device 100 where a microphone is provided. When a user places a call with foldable electronic device 100 in hand, the user may place the upper portion of foldable electronic device 100 near the user's ear and the user may place the lower portion of foldable electronic device 100 near the user's mouth (below the ear). Accordingly, the user's ear may perceive the content of the call made by the earpiece, and the content of the call made by the user's mouth may be captured by the foldable electronic device 100. There are other possible situations for the upper portion of the foldable electronic device 100. For example, the upper portion of the foldable electronic device 100 may refer to a portion of the foldable electronic device 100 where the lens 131 and the lens 132 are disposed.
A foldable electronic device 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application can be viewed along the Y direction shown in fig. 2, so as to obtain the schematic structural diagram shown in fig. 5. In the embodiment shown in fig. 5, the foldable electronic device 100 may be converted into the folded state by folding the foldable electronic device 100 inward at the hinge 125. A foldable electronic device 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application can be viewed along the Z direction shown in fig. 5, so as to obtain the schematic structure shown in fig. 6. A foldable electronic device 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application can be viewed along the-Z direction shown in fig. 5, so as to obtain the schematic structural diagram shown in fig. 7.
Referring to fig. 1 to 7, in the process of converting the foldable electronic device 100 from the unfolded state to the folded state, the cover 122 and the cover 124 may rotate around the rotating shaft 125, so that the cover 122 and the cover 124 may approach each other, and the display portion 111 and the display portion 112 may approach each other. The side of the cover 124 remote from the cover 122 may be moved toward the cover 126. That is, the main body portion 102 of the foldable electronic device 100 may move toward the main body portion 101 and the protrusion portion 104.
As shown in fig. 5, when the foldable electronic device 100 is in a folded state, the hinge 125 and the cover 126 may be respectively located at two sides of the foldable electronic device 100. The display screen 110 may be positioned between the cover 126 and the hinge 125. The display portion 111 may be located on a side of the main body portion 101 close to the main body portion 102. The body portion 101 can be folded with the body portion 102. The foldable part 103 may be in a folded state. The main body portion 101 and the main body portion 102 may be located between the protruding portion 104 and the foldable portion 103. The projection area of the display section 112 may partially or completely overlap with the projection area of the display section 111, as projected in the Z direction shown in fig. 5.
The cover 122, the cover 124 and the hinge 125 may form a screen accommodating area for accommodating the display screen 110. That is, the display screen 110 can be accommodated in the space between the cover 122 and the cover 124. When the user views the outer circumference of the foldable electronic device 100 in the folded state, the display screen 130 is relatively easy to be viewed by the user and the display screen 110 is relatively difficult to be viewed by the user.
The size of the main body portion 101 in the X direction (the X direction may be parallel with respect to the display portion 111 and perpendicular with respect to the rotation axis 125 of the foldable portion 103 when the foldable portion 103 is in the folded state; the X direction may be, for example, a width direction when the foldable electronic device 100 is in the folded state) may be greater than or equal to the size of the main body portion 102 in the X direction. The size of the display portion 111 of the display screen 110 in the X direction may be greater than or equal to the size of the display portion 112 of the display screen 110 in the X direction. Thereby facilitating a reduction in the obstruction of the display portion 112 by the cover 126. When the display part 112 is folded toward the display part 111, the cover 126 is relatively difficult to block or interfere with the movement of the display part 112. That is, when the main body portion 102 is folded toward the main body portion 101, the protrusion portion 104 is relatively difficult to block or interfere with the movement of the main body portion 102.
When the foldable electronic device 100 is in the folded state, the height of the protrusion 104 of the foldable electronic device 100 may be greater than or equal to or less than the total height of the body portions 101 and 102 of the foldable electronic device 100.
In some embodiments, the height of the protrusion 104 of the foldable electronic device 100 may be relatively high, which is advantageous in enabling the protrusion 104 to accommodate relatively thick sized devices. In one possible scenario, the protrusion 104 may protrude on a side of the main body portion 102 away from the main body portion 101, viewed in the-X direction shown in fig. 5.
In other embodiments, the height of the protruding portion 104 of the foldable electronic device 100 may be equal to the total height of the body portions 101 and 102 of the foldable electronic device 100. The cover 124 of the foldable electronic device 100 may be disposed coplanar with a side of the protrusion 104 distal from the display screen 130. Thereby facilitating a reduction in the partially protruding position of the foldable electronic device 100 in the folded state. When the main body portion 102 of the foldable electronic device 100 falls toward the ground, the area of the foldable electronic device 100 contacting the ground is relatively large, which is beneficial to reducing the possibility of local collision of the protruding portion 104 of the foldable electronic device 100. In addition, the hand feeling of the user can be improved, and the protruding foreign matters contacted by the user can be reduced.
In still other embodiments, the height of the protrusion 104 of the foldable electronic device 100 may be less than the total height of the body portions 101 and 102 of the foldable electronic device 100. The heights of the main body portion 101 and the main body portion 102 are relatively high, which is beneficial to improving the mechanical stability of the main body portion 101 and the main body portion 102. The internal space of the foldable electronic device 100 at the main body portion 101 and the main body portion 102 is relatively large, and a larger number of larger-sized devices can be accommodated. In one embodiment, the main body 101 and the main body 102 can be used to accommodate a battery with a relatively large capacity, which is beneficial to improve the battery capacity of the foldable electronic device 100.
The height of the body portion 101 of the foldable electronic device 100 may be greater than or equal to or less than the height of the body portion 102 of the foldable electronic device 100.
In some embodiments, the height of the body portion 101 may be greater than the height of the body portion 102. The internal space of the foldable electronic device 100 at the body portion 101 is relatively large, and a larger number of larger-sized devices can be accommodated. The device with a relatively high height in the protruding portion 104 may partially extend into the main body portion 101, which is beneficial to flexibly arrange the device between the main body portion 101 and the protruding portion 104.
In other embodiments, the height of body portion 101 may be equal to the height of body portion 102. When the foldable electronic device 100 is in the unfolded state, the main body 101 and the main body 102 may be relatively flat, which is beneficial to improving the hand feeling of the user and reducing the protruding foreign objects contacted by the user.
In still other embodiments, the height of the body portion 101 may be less than the height of the body portion 102. When the foldable electronic device 100 is in the unfolded state, the main body portion 102 and the protruding portion 104 are located on both sides of the foldable electronic device 100, and the main body portion 101 is located between the main body portion 102 and the protruding portion 104. The user is likely to hold the foldable electronic device 100 by holding the body portion 102 or the protrusion 104. Since the foldable electronic device 100 may have a relatively large height at the body portion 102 and the protruding portion 104, the portion of the foldable electronic device 100 used for holding may have a relatively large mechanical stability, which is beneficial for reducing the loss of the foldable electronic device 100 due to frequent use by a user.
In some embodiments, a lens on cover 126 may protrude from cover 126. In other embodiments, the lens on the cover 126 may be disposed coplanar with the cover 126. In still other embodiments, the lens of the cap 126 may be embedded in the groove of the cap 126.
In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 6, with the foldable electronic device 100 in a folded state, the user may face the display 130 of the foldable electronic device 100 and face the lens 134 of the foldable electronic device 100. The lens 134 can photograph the face of the user relatively easily. In the embodiment shown in fig. 6, the lens 134 may be disposed at the middle upper portion of the foldable electronic device 100. In other embodiments, the lens 134 may be disposed at other portions of the foldable electronic device 100.
As shown in fig. 7, the lens 131 and the lens 132 on the protrusion 104 may be located on the back side of the foldable electronic device 100. The lens 131 and the lens 132 on the tab 104 may be used to capture a scene around the foldable electronic device 100. In one possible scenario, when the foldable electronic device 100 is in the folded state, the lens 131 and the lens 132 on the protrusion 104 may be the rear lens of the foldable electronic device 100, and the lens 134 on the display screen 130 may be the front lens of the foldable electronic device 100.
Fig. 8 shows an internal structure diagram of a foldable electronic device 100 provided in an embodiment of the present application.
As described above, the foldable electronic device 100 may be divided into the main body portion 101, the main body portion 102, the foldable portion 103, and the protruding portion 104. In some embodiments provided herein, one or more of the body portion 101, the body portion 102, the foldable portion 103, and the protruding portion 104 may be provided with a device. The devices disposed on the main body 101, the main body 102, the foldable part 103 and the protruding part 104 may interact with each other through a circuit board (e.g., a flexible circuit board), a side frame 121 and/or a side frame 122.
Since the main body portion 101 and the main body portion 102 are relatively small in size in the Z direction, both the main body portion 101 and the main body portion 102 can be used to accommodate devices that occupy a relatively small space in the Z direction. Due to the relatively large dimension of the tab 104 in the Z-direction, the tab 104 may be used to accommodate devices that occupy a relatively large space in the Z-direction. In some embodiments, the device 1 is disposed on the main body portion 101 or the main body portion 102, and the device 2 is disposed on the protrusion portion 104, the dimension of the device 1 in the Z direction may be smaller than the dimension of the device 2 in the Z direction.
In the embodiment shown in fig. 8, one or more of the following may be housed within the protrusion 104: a lens 131, a lens 132, a light source 133, a Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) card slot 137, a speaker 138, a motherboard 135, and an external interface (e.g., a Universal Serial Bus (USB) interface) 139.
In some embodiments, the protrusion 104 may have a first portion of a target device housed therein, a second portion of the target device being disposed on one or more of the body portion 101 and the body portion 102, the target device being any one of: lens 131, lens 132, light source 133, SIM card slot 137, speaker 138, motherboard 135 and external interface 139.
In one embodiment, as shown in FIG. 8, a portion of the main board 135 may be received in the protrusion 104, and another portion may extend into the main body 101. The main board 135 may be provided with the device 1 and the device 2, the device 1 may be located in the main body portion 101, and the device 2 may be located in the protruding portion 104. Thus, the device 1 housed by the main body portion 101 can interact with the device 2 housed by the protruding portion 104 through the main board 135. In one possible case, the dimension of the device 1 in the Z direction may be smaller than the dimension of the device 2 in the Z direction, and the dimension of the device 1 in the X direction may be larger than the dimension of the device 2 in the X direction.

Thereby facilitating a reduction in the partially protruding position of the foldable electronic device 100 in the partially folded state or in the unfolded state.
In other embodiments, the height of body portion 101 may be greater than the height of body portion 102. Since the components related to the display portion 111 of the display screen 110 and the components related to the display screen 130 are provided in the main body portion 101, the number of components housed in the main body portion 101 is relatively large. The main body portion 102 is provided with components related to the display portion 112 of the display screen 110, and thus the number of components housed in the main body portion 102 is relatively small. The body portion 102 may have a relatively small height to reduce the overall height of the foldable electronic device 100 in the fully folded state.
The height of the body portion 102 of the foldable electronic device 100 may be less than or equal to or greater than the height of the body portion 106 of the foldable electronic device 100.

The cover 124 and the cover 128 of the foldable electronic device 100 may be disposed coplanar when the foldable electronic device 100 is in a partially folded state or an unfolded state. Thereby facilitating a reduction of the locally protruding position of the foldable electronic device 100 in the partially folded state or in the unfolded state.
In other embodiments, the height of body portion 102 may be greater than the height of body portion 106. Since the main body portion 106 is sandwiched between the main body portion 101 and the main body portion 102 when the foldable electronic device 100 is in the fully folded state. The body portion 106 has a relatively small height, which is advantageous for reducing interference of the body portion 106 with folding of the body portions 101 and 102.
During the process of the foldable electronic device 100 transforming from the partially folded state to the fully folded state, the cover 122 (or the display 130) and the cover 124 may rotate around the rotation axis 125, so that the cover 122 and the cover 124 may approach each other, the cover 128 and the cover 122 may approach each other, the display portion 111 and the display portion 112 may approach each other, and the display portion 114 and the display portion 111 may approach each other. The display portions 111 and 112 can be folded inward. The main body portion 102 and the main body portion 106 of the foldable electronic device 100 can move toward the main body portion 101.
When the foldable electronic device 100 is turned from the partially folded state to the fully folded state, the foldable portion 103 of the foldable electronic device 100 may be in the folded state, and the main body portion 106 may be located between the main body portion 101 and the main body portion 102. The display portion 111 of the display screen 110 may be disposed to face the cover 128. The cover 122, the cover 128, the protrusion 104, and the hinge 125 may form a screen accommodating area for accommodating the display 111. That is, the display portion 111 may be accommodated in the space between the cover 122 and the cover 124. The display portion 111 may be located on a side of the main body portion 101 close to the main body portion 102.
When the user views the outer circumference of the foldable electronic device 100 in the folded state, the user views the display 130 relatively easily, and views the display part 111, the display part 112, and the display part 114 of the display 110 relatively less easily. As shown in (a) of fig. 19, the foldable electronic device 100 may display an image on the display screen 130. The user can take a self-portrait image of the user using the lens 134 on the display screen 130. As shown in (b) of fig. 19, the user can also capture an environment image around the foldable electronic device 100 using the lens 131 and the lens 132 on the protruding portion 104.
In some embodiments, the size of the main body portion 102 in the X direction (in the embodiment shown in fig. 18, the X direction may be parallel with respect to the display portion 111 of the display screen 110 and perpendicular with respect to the rotation axis 125 of the foldable portion 103 when the foldable portion 103 is in the folded state) may be smaller than or equal to the size of the main body portion 101 in the X direction. The size of the display portion 112 of the display screen 110 in the X direction may be smaller than or equal to the size of the display portion 111 of the display screen 110 in the X direction. Thereby facilitating accommodation of the rotation shaft 129 between the main body portion 102 and the main body portion 106 between the main body portion 102 (or the main body portion 106) and the protruding portion 104, as shown in (b) of fig. 19.
When the foldable electronic device 100 is in the unfolded state, the size of the foldable portion 103 in the X direction may be larger than the size of the foldable portion 105 in the X direction. The size of the foldable display portion 113 in the X direction may be larger than the size of the foldable display portion 115 in the X direction. This facilitates the accommodation of the main body portion 106 between the main body portion 101 and the main body portion 102.
When the foldable electronic device 100 is in a fully folded state, the height of the protruding portion 104 of the foldable electronic device 100 may be greater than or equal to or less than the total height of the main body portion 101, the main body portion 102, and the main body portion 106 of the foldable electronic device 100.
In one possible case, a device (e.g., a lens) on the protrusion 104 may protrude from the cover 126. The sum of the height of device protruding cap 126 and the height of protruding portion 104 may be greater than or less than or equal to the total height of body portion 101, body portion 102, and body portion 106.
When the foldable electronic device 100 is in a fully folded state and the main body portion 102 is in contact with a load-bearing platform (e.g., a desktop) of the foldable electronic device 100, the devices on the tabs 104 may or may not be in contact with the load-bearing platform. Therefore, under the gravity of the foldable electronic device 100, the pressure applied to the device on the protrusion 104 can be relatively small, thereby facilitating the mechanical stability of the lens 131.
In some embodiments provided herein, the display screen 110 may be drop-shaped, golf-shaped, or U-shaped at the foldable portion 103 when the foldable electronic device 100 is in a fully folded state.

The display screen 130 and the display part 111 may be oppositely disposed, and the display screen 130 and the display part 111 may be respectively located at two sides of the foldable electronic device 100; the display portion 112 and the display portion 114 may be oppositely disposed, and the display portion 112 and the display portion 114 may be respectively located at both sides of the foldable electronic device 100. So that both sides of the foldable electronic device 100 can be used to display images.
In some possible scenarios, the user may hold the tab 104, view the display screen 130 and the display portion 114 of the display screen 110, or view the display portion 111 and the display portion 112 of the display screen 110. Since the area held by the user is located outside the display area of the foldable electronic device 100, it is advantageous to reduce the occlusion of the display area by the user's fingers.
In other possible scenarios, the total display area of display 111 and display 112 may substantially coincide with the total display area of display 114 and display screen 130. The images displayed on the display portion 111 and the display portion 112 by the foldable electronic device 100 may substantially coincide with the images displayed on the display portion 114 and the display screen 130 by the foldable electronic device 100, thereby facilitating the users at both sides of the foldable electronic device 100 to view the images.
In still other possible scenarios, foldable electronic device 100 displays different application interfaces on display 114 and display screen 130, respectively. When the user's finger touches the side of the display part 114 close to the display screen 130, the user's finger is relatively difficult to touch the display screen 130 because there may be a space between the display part 114 and the display screen 130. Therefore, when the user touches at the edge of the display portion 114, the possibility that the user erroneously touches the display screen 130 is relatively small. Similarly, when the user's finger touches the side of the display screen 130 near the display portion 114, the user's finger is relatively difficult to touch the display portion 114 because there may be a gap between the display portion 114 and the display screen 130. Therefore, when the user touches the edge of the display screen 130, the possibility that the user erroneously touches the display portion 114 is relatively small.
The size of the main body portion 102 in the X direction (in the embodiment shown in fig. 22, when the foldable portion 105 is in the folded state, the X direction may be parallel with respect to the display portion 112 of the display screen 110, and perpendicular with respect to the rotation axis 129 of the foldable portion 105) may be smaller than or equal to or larger than the size of the main body portion 106 in the X direction. The size of the display portion 112 of the display screen 110 in the X direction may be smaller than or equal to or larger than the size of the display portion 114 of the display screen 110 in the X direction.
In some embodiments, the dimension of the body portion 102 in the X direction may be equal to the dimension of the body portion 106 in the X direction. The size of the display portion 112 of the display screen 110 in the X direction is equal to the size of the display portion 114 of the display screen 110 in the X direction, so that when the foldable electronic device 100 is in the fully folded state, it is advantageous that the side of the main body portion 102 away from the protruding portion 104 and the side of the main body portion 106 away from the protruding portion 104 can be arranged coplanar.
In other embodiments, the size of the main body portion 102 in the X direction may be smaller than the size of the main body portion 106 in the X direction. The size of the display portion 112 of the display screen 110 in the X direction is smaller than the size of the display portion 114 of the display screen 110 in the X direction, which is advantageous in that the side of the main body portion 106 away from the protruding portion 104 can be disposed as coplanar as possible with the side of the foldable portion 103 away from the protruding portion 104 when the foldable electronic device 100 is in the fully folded state. A tiny cavity can be formed between the main body part 106 and the foldable part 103, and the fingers of the user can extend into the cavity to push the main body part 106, which is beneficial to reducing the force required by the fingers of the user to push the main body part 106.
When the foldable electronic device 100 is in a partially folded state, the display portion 114 may be located at one side of the display screen 130 in the X direction. The size of the display portion 112 of the display screen 110 in the X direction is smaller than the size of the display portion 114 of the display screen 110 in the X direction, and one end of the display portion 114 may be as close to the display screen 130 as possible. When the foldable electronic device 100 is in a partially folded state, the spacing between the display portion 114 and the display screen 130 may be relatively small.
In one possible case, the size of the display portion 114 of the display screen 110 in the X direction may be smaller than or equal to the sum of the size of the display portion 112 of the display screen 110 in the X direction and half of the size of the foldable display portion 113 in the X direction. This is advantageous in reducing the possibility that the display screen 130 and the display portion 114 interfere with each other and are blocked.
The height of the body portion 101 of the foldable electronic device 100 may be less than or equal to or greater than the total height of the body portions 102 and 106 of the foldable electronic device 100.
In some embodiments, the height of the body portion 101 may be equal to or slightly greater than or slightly less than the total height of the body portions 102 and 106. The display portion 114 may be disposed substantially coplanar with the display screen 130 when the foldable electronic device 100 is in a partially folded state. Thereby facilitating a reduction in the partially folded position of the foldable electronic device 100.
In other embodiments, the height of body portion 101 may be less than the total height of body portions 102 and 106. Because the devices are disposed in both the main body portion 102 and the main body portion 106, the total height of the main body portion 102 and the main body portion 106 is relatively high, which facilitates the proper placement of the devices in the main body portion 102 and the main body portion 106.
The height of the body portion 102 of the foldable electronic device 100 may be less than or equal to or greater than the height of the body portion 106 of the foldable electronic device 100.
In one embodiment, the height of the body portion 101 may be equal to the height of the body portion 102, and the height of the body portion 102 may be equal to the height of the body portion 106. The cover 124 of the foldable electronic device 100 may be disposed coplanar with the display 130 when the foldable electronic device 100 is in the unfolded state. The cover 124 may be disposed coplanar with the cover 128. Thereby facilitating a reduction in the partially protruding position of the foldable electronic device 100 in the unfolded state.
During the process of the foldable electronic device 100 transforming from the partially folded state to the fully folded state, the cover 122 (or the display 130) and the cover 124 may rotate around the rotation axis 125, so that the cover 122 and the cover 124 may approach each other, the cover 128 and the cover 122 may approach each other, the display portion 111 and the display portion 112 may approach each other, and the display portion 114 and the display portion 111 may approach each other. The display portions 111 and 112 can be folded inward. The main body portion 102 and the main body portion 106 of the foldable electronic device 100 can move toward the main body portion 101.
When the foldable electronic device 100 is turned from the partially folded state to the fully folded state, the foldable portion 103 of the foldable electronic device 100 may be in the folded state, and the main body portion 102 may be located between the main body portion 101 and the main body portion 106. The display portion 111 of the display screen 110 may be disposed to face the display portion 112. The cover 122, the cover 124, the protrusion 104, and the hinge 125 may form a screen accommodating area for accommodating the display part 111 and the display part 112. That is, the display portion 111 and the display portion 112 may be accommodated in the space between the cover 122 and the cover 124. The display portion 114 of the display screen 110 on the main body portion 106 may be located outside the spacing space between the cover 122 and the cover 124. The display portion 111 may be located on a side of the main body portion 101 close to the main body portion 102.
When the user views the outer circumference of the foldable electronic device 100 in the folded state, the user can view the display 130 and the display part 114 relatively easily, and can view the display part 111 and the display part 112 of the display 110 relatively hardly. As shown in (a) of fig. 23, the foldable electronic device 100 may display an image on the display screen 130.

The foldable electronic device 100 can also display an image on the display portion 114. The user can capture a self-portrait image of the user using the lens 131 and the lens 132 on the tab 104.
In some embodiments, the size of the main body portion 102 in the X direction (in the embodiment shown in fig. 22, when the foldable portion 103 is in the folded state, the X direction may be parallel with respect to the display portion 111 of the display screen 110, and perpendicular with respect to the rotation axis 125 of the foldable portion 103) may be smaller than or equal to the size of the main body portion 101 in the X direction. The size of the display portion 112 of the display screen 110 in the X direction may be smaller than or equal to the size of the display portion 111 of the display screen 110 in the X direction. Thereby facilitating the accommodation of the shaft 129 between the body portion 102 and the body portion 106 between the body portion 102 (or the body portion 106) and the protrusion 104.
When the foldable electronic device 100 is in the unfolded state, the size of the foldable portion 103 in the X direction may be smaller than or equal to or larger than the size of the foldable portion 105 in the X direction. The size of the foldable display portion 113 in the X direction may be smaller than or equal to or larger than the size of the foldable display portion 115 in the X direction. The size of the foldable display part 113 and the foldable display part 115 in the X direction is appropriately set, which is beneficial to realize inward folding of the main body part 101 and the main body part 102 and outward folding of the main body part 102 and the main body part 106.
When the foldable electronic device 100 is in a fully folded state, the height of the protruding portion 104 of the foldable electronic device 100 may be greater than or equal to or less than the total height of the body portions 101, 102, and 106 of the foldable electronic device 100. With particular reference to the embodiment shown in fig. 18.

In other embodiments, the height of the protrusion 104 of the foldable electronic device 100 may be equal to the total height of the body portions 101 and 102 of the foldable electronic device 100. The cover 124 of the foldable electronic device 100 may be disposed coplanar with the side of the protrusion 104 away from the display screen 130. Thereby facilitating a reduction in the partially protruding position of the foldable electronic device 100 in the folded state.
In still other embodiments, the height of the protrusion 104 of the foldable electronic device 100 may be less than the total height of the body portions 101 and 102 of the foldable electronic device 100. The heights of the main body portions 101 and 102 are relatively high, which is advantageous for improving the mechanical stability of the main body portions 101 and 102. The internal space of the foldable electronic device 100 at the body portions 101 and 102 is relatively large, and a larger number of larger-sized components can be accommodated.
The height of the body portion 101 of the foldable electronic device 100 may be greater than or equal to or less than the height of the body portion 102 of the foldable electronic device 100.
In some embodiments, the height of the body portion 101 may be greater than the height of the body portion 102. The internal space of the foldable electronic device 100 at the body portion 101 is relatively large, and a larger number of larger-sized devices can be accommodated.
In other embodiments, the height of body portion 101 may be equal to the height of body portion 102. When the foldable electronic device 100 is in the unfolded state, the main body 101 and the main body 102 may be relatively flat, which is beneficial to improving the hand feeling of the user and reducing the protruding foreign objects contacted by the user.
In some embodiments, a lens on the cover 126 may protrude from the cover 126. In other embodiments, the lens on the cover 126 may be disposed coplanar with the cover 126. In still other embodiments, the lens of the cap 126 may be embedded in the groove of the cap 126.
In the following, various application scenarios of the foldable electronic device 100 provided by the present application are explained in conjunction with the embodiments shown in fig. 32 to fig. 41. The embodiments shown in fig. 32 to 41 mainly take the foldable electronic device 100 shown in fig. 1 to 13 as an example. It should be understood that, in the embodiments provided in the present application, the foldable electronic device 100 shown in fig. 32 to 41 may also be replaced with the foldable electronic device 100 shown in fig. 14 to 31.
The protrusion 104 has a relatively high height, and thus the lens on the protrusion 104 may have relatively superior photographing performance. The foldable electronic device 100 photographs the user through the lens on the protrusion 104, and a user image with relatively high photographing quality can be obtained. That is, the lens on the protruding portion 104 can be used to acquire a self-portrait image with relatively high shooting quality.
In some embodiments provided by the present application, as shown in fig. 32, the protrusion 104 and the display screen 110 are disposed on the same side of the foldable electronic device 100, and a lens is disposed on the protrusion 104, so that relatively accurate face recognition can be achieved.
As shown in (a) of fig. 32, before the user uses the foldable electronic device 100, the foldable electronic device 100 may be in a locked state, and the foldable electronic device 100 may be in a folded state or a fully folded state. When the user is ready to use the foldable electronic device 100, the user may instruct the foldable electronic device 100 to perform a face recognition operation through an activation operation (e.g., an unfolding operation, a picking-up operation, a power key pressing operation, or a touch operation of the display screen 130 of the foldable electronic device 100) acting on the foldable electronic device 100. Foldable electronic device 100 may trigger lens 131 and/or lens 132 on tab 104 to launch in response to an activation operation by a user.
The user may face the protruding portion 104 of the foldable electronic device 100 so that the foldable electronic device 100 captures an image of the user's face through the lens 131 and/or the lens 132 on the protruding portion 104. In some embodiments, the distance from the user to lens 131 is different than the distance from the user to lens 132. The difference between the distance from the user to the lens 131 and the distance from the user to the lens 132 may reflect the depth information of the user's face. Accordingly, the foldable electronic device 100 acquires depth information of the user's face through the lens 131 and the lens 132 on the protruding portion 104. That is, the foldable electronic device 100 acquires a stereoscopic face image through the lens 131 and the lens 132.
The foldable electronic device 100 may perform a face recognition operation based on the photographed face image. The foldable electronic device 100 may compare the photographed face image with a preset face image stored in the memory. And if the shot face image is matched with the preset face image, the face recognition is passed. If the shot face image does not match the preset face image, the face recognition is not passed.
As shown in (b) of fig. 32, the user may unfold the foldable electronic device 100 to view an image displayed on the display screen 110. Since the face recognition process is short, in a possible case, during the process of the user unfolding the foldable electronic device 100, or after the user completely unfolds the foldable electronic device 100, the foldable electronic device 100 may display the unlocked interface on the display screen 110. For example, the foldable electronic device 100 may display a menu interface 260 on the display screen 110, as shown in (b) and (c) of fig. 32.
