Description

Foldable electronic device

The present invention relates to an electronic device, and in particular to a foldable electronic device.

With the evolution of technology, many modern people carry electronic devices such as mobile phones, laptops and even tablets with them to meet various work needs. Once the number of these electronic devices increases, it often means that users need to face and be familiar with these electronic devices at the same time in order to facilitate various operations.

However, the structures of these electronic devices are independent of each other, and their operation methods are often differentiated. Therefore, it is difficult for users to concentrate on using these different electronic devices. For example, users need to constantly raise and lower their heads or turn their necks in order to switch their eyes between different display screens. Even when charging is needed, various electronic devices and their attached charging equipment often cause the user's working environment to be cluttered, which indirectly makes the user's work efficiency poor. At the same time, it will also cause extremely inconvenient use experience and muscle damage.

The present invention provides a foldable electronic device, which is used to carry another object on the foldable electronic device through body transformation, so that the user can cooperate with the two devices.

The foldable electronic device of the present invention includes a first body, a second body, a rotating shaft module, a support frame, at least one bracket and at least two pairs of magnetic parts. The support frame is connected to the second body through the rotating shaft module, and the first body is slidably assembled on the support frame to slide between the first position and at least a second position. The first body and the support frame rotate and open and close relative to the second body through the rotating shaft module. The bracket is pivotally connected to the support frame. The magnetic components are respectively arranged on the first body and the bracket. When the first body slides to the first position relative to the support frame, the magnetic attraction force generated by the magnetic component is greater than the magnetic repulsion force to drive the bracket to close and stack on the support frame. When the first body slides to the second position relative to the support frame, the magnetic repulsion force generated by the magnetic component is greater than the magnetic attraction force to drive the bracket to expand relative to the support frame and to carry an object.

Based on the above, the foldable electronic device first uses the support frame to be pivotally connected to the second body through the rotating shaft module, and then uses the first body to slide on the supporting frame, so that the first body and the supporting frame can be connected through the rotating shaft module. At the same time, the first body is pivoted to open and close relative to the second body, and in the unfolded state, the first body stands above the second body through the support frame.

More importantly, in the aforementioned unfolded state, the first body can also slide relative to the support frame, and when sliding to different positions, has the effect of shielding or exposing the bracket pivoted on the support frame. At the same time, the foldable electronic device also disposes at least two pairs of magnetic parts on the first body and the bracket, and at least some of the magnetic parts are at a distance where the magnetic force (magnetism) can correspond to each other, so that the magnetic force generated during the sliding process can be utilized. The movement of the magnetic component changes its corresponding relationship, so that when the first body moves to a specific position, the bracket is pushed out of the support frame by magnetic repulsion or retracted into the support frame by magnetic attraction.

In this way, the unfolded bracket and the support frame can form a support for external objects, allowing the user to view the external objects and the foldable electronic device from the same viewing angle and even operate the external objects and the foldable electronic device at the same time, thereby providing the user with The desired collaborative effects.

FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a foldable electronic device according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 2A and FIG. 2B are schematic diagrams of the foldable electronic device in FIG. 1 in different states respectively. Please refer to FIG. 1 , FIG. 2A and FIG. 2B at the same time. In this embodiment, the foldable electronic device 100 is, for example, a notebook computer but is not limited thereto. It includes a first body 110 , a second body 120 , and a rotating shaft mold. Set 130, support frame 140 and bracket 150. The support frame 140 is connected to the second body 120 through the rotating shaft module 130 , so the first body 110 and the supporting frame 140 rotate open and closed relative to the second body 120 through the rotating shaft module 130 . Furthermore, the bracket 150 is pivotally connected to the support frame 140 , so the bracket 150 can rotate to open and close relative to the support frame 140 . In addition, the first body 110 is slidably assembled to the support frame 140 , and the first body 110 can slide between the first position and the second position relative to the support frame 140 .

As described above, part of the first body 110 faces the bracket 150 with the support bracket 140 interposed therebetween. When the first body 110 and the support frame 140 rotate relative to the second body 120 through the rotating shaft module 130 and unfold as shown in FIG. 1 , the first body 110 can perform its sliding movement relative to the support frame 140 . Here, the first body 110 shown in FIG. 1 is the first position, and the first body 110 shown in FIGS. 2A and 2B is the second position. In other words, based on the position where the user operates the notebook computer, the first body 110 of this embodiment can slide to the right from the first position in FIG. 1 to the second position in FIG. 2A relative to the support frame 140, or to the second position in FIG. 2A. Swipe left to the (other) second position in Figure 2B. Correspondingly, the foldable electronic device 100 of this embodiment has a pair of brackets 150, which are respectively arranged on the left and right parts of the support frame 140. Therefore, when the first body 110 is located in the first position, the first body 110 and the support The racks 140 completely overlap and simultaneously cover the pair of brackets 150 . When the first body 110 moves to the right as shown in FIG. 2A , the right bracket 150 is covered but the left bracket 150 is exposed. Correspondingly, when the first body 110 moves to the left side as shown in FIG. 2B , the left bracket 150 is covered but the right bracket 150 is exposed. That is, when the first body 110 moves to either of the two second positions, the first body 110 and the support frame 140 are partially overlapped. In addition, the aforementioned complete overlap means that when the support frame 140 is projected onto the first body 110, it is completely within the range of the first body 110. At the same time, the support frame 140 is used to shield the back of the first body 110.

It should be mentioned that, regardless of whether it is shown in FIG. 2A or FIG. 2B , the foldable electronic device 100 can flip the bracket 150 that is not covered by the first body 110 out of the support frame 140 , thereby making the object 200, for example, another object. An electronic device can be carried between the bracket 150 and the support frame 140 to form the object 200 and the first body 110 of the foldable electronic device 100, such as the screen of a notebook computer, both of which are located in front of the support frame 140. In other words, the user at this time can view the object 200 and the first body 110 at the same or close viewing angle.

Please refer to FIG. 2A and FIG. 2B again. In this embodiment, the foldable electronic device 100 also includes a control module 163, a sensor 162 and a wireless charging module 161. The control module 163 is configured in the second body 120. , which includes, for example, the host computer and related control components or processors of a notebook computer. The sensor 162 and the wireless charging module 161 are arranged on the support frame 140 and adjacent to the bracket 150, and the control module 163 is electrically connected to the sensor 162 and the wireless charging module 161, where the sensor 162 is used for sensing The opening and closing state of the bracket 150 relative to the support frame 140, or whether the sensing object 200 is stably supported on the bracket 150, and when the sensing result is yes, the control module 163 can drive the wireless charging module 161 The object (electronic device) 200 is wirelessly charged. In this embodiment. The sensor 162 is, for example, an infrared sensor or an ambient light sensor. Therefore, when the object 200 is carried on the bracket 150, it is equivalent to activating the sensor 162, allowing the control module 163 to generate corresponding actions accordingly. . Here, the corresponding action includes activating the wireless charging module 161 to charge the object 200 . In other embodiments not shown, the wireless charging module 161 can also be replaced by other known electronic modules, so that the foldable electronic device 100 can improve the telecommunications connection relationship with the object 200, thereby achieving the effect of collaborative operation. For example, the foldable electronic device 100 of this embodiment also includes an application program, so the corresponding action also includes the control module 163 activating the application program and establishing a communication link with the object 200 . In addition, in other embodiments not shown, the sensor can also be configured on the bracket 150, or the support bracket 140 is used to accommodate the recess of the bracket 150, so as to achieve the same sensing as mentioned above. Effect.

In another embodiment not shown, the foldable electronic device 100 is provided with the bracket 150 only on one side of the support frame 140 and not on the other side. However, it can still produce a carrying effect on the object 200 or the above-mentioned. Electrical corresponding relationship.

3A and 3B illustrate exploded views of the foldable electronic device of FIG. 1 from different viewing angles. Please refer to FIG. 3A and FIG. 3B at the same time. In this embodiment, the first body 110 includes active parts 111, 112 and a linkage part 113. The active part 112 is, for example, a display screen or a touch display screen of a notebook computer. The component 111 is, for example, a screen (display) backplane. The active components 111 and 112 are assembled together and located on the same side of the support frame 140 . The support frame 140 includes components 141 and 142 that are assembled together, and the linking member 113 of the first body 110 is slidably assembled between the components 141 and 142 (equivalent to being disposed within the support frame 140 ). Furthermore, the active parts 111, 112 and the linking part 113 are respectively slidably assembled on the opposite surfaces of the support frame 140, where the active parts 111, 112 and the bracket 150 are located on one side of the support frame 140, and the linking part 113 includes carriers 113b, 113c and a push rod 113a. The carriers 113b, 113c are located on the other side of the support frame 140, that is, the linking member 113 is opposite to the active member 111 across the component 141. The carriers 113b and 113 are located at opposite ends of the push rod 113a, and the push rod 113a can be regarded as extending from the carriers 113b and 113c to the support frame 140, passing through the component 141 and extending into the slot 111c of the active member 111, so the push rod 113a It is essentially located on the sliding path of the active member 111 .

Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 3B , the bracket 150 passes from the rear side of the component 141 , that is, the side of the component 141 facing the component 142 , passes through the component 141 and is pivotally connected to the component 141 and then moves from the front side of the component 141 ( That is, the side of the component 141 facing the active component 111 is exposed. At the same time, the baffle P2 and the locking member P1 are assembled on the rear side of the component 141 to provide a limiting and stopping effect on the bracket 150 .

Based on the above, FIG. 4A illustrates some components of the foldable electronic device from a front view, which reflects that the foldable electronic device 100 is in the state shown in FIG. 1 . FIG. 4B illustrates a partial enlarged view of FIG. 4A from a three-dimensional perspective. Please refer to Figure 4A and Figure 4B first, and compare it with Figure 3A or Figure 3B to better understand the assembly relationship. The foldable electronic device 100 also includes a limiter P3, which is assembled to the support frame 140 and slidably coupled to the active member 111. The tracks 111a, 111b, and the limiter P3 is used to limit the active member 111 to be slidably stacked on the component 141 of the support frame 140. As shown in FIG. 4B, the limiter P3 has a locking part P3A and a limiter part P3B. , the locking part P3A is used to lock and fix on the component 141 of the support frame 140, and the limiting part P3B is in contact with the peripheral structure of the track 111b to ensure that the active component 111 can maintain its distance from the component 141 , and at the same time, the active member 111 is allowed to slide relative to the component 141, that is, the sliding process shown in Figure 1 is converted to Figure 2A or Figure 2B. Here, the extending direction of the slot 111c, the sliding direction of the driving member 111 and the sliding direction of the linking member 113 are consistent with each other.

Please refer to FIG. 3A , FIG. 3B and FIG. 3C again. In this embodiment, the foldable electronic device 100 further includes at least two pairs of magnetic components, which are respectively arranged on the first body 110 and the bracket 150 . Specifically, in this embodiment, seven magnetic members A1 to A7 are respectively provided on the carriers 113b and 113c of the linking member 113 of the first body 110, and the corresponding seven magnetic members B1 to B7 are provided on the bracket 150 (with The seven magnetic parts A1 to A7 form seven pairs of magnetic parts), and the corresponding states of these magnetic parts A1 to A7 and B1 to B7 will be changed accordingly due to the change of the sliding position of the first body 110 relative to the support frame 140 . The bracket 150 encloses the magnetic components B1 to B7 through components 151 and 152, so that the magnetic attraction or magnetic repulsion can drive the bracket 150 to rotate and open relative to the support frame 140.

It should be mentioned first that in order to facilitate the first body 110 to slide left and right as shown in Figure 2A and Figure 2B to smoothly drive the bracket 150, the magnetic components in this embodiment are arranged in groups. The two carriers 113b and 113c are also arranged in groups on a pair of brackets 150, and the magnetic arrangements of the magnetic components A1 to A7 corresponding to the left part of the supporting bracket 140 are the same as those corresponding to the right part of the supporting bracket 140. The magnetic arrangement of the magnetic elements A1 to A7 at the bottom of the bracket 150 is mirror image relative to the push rod 113 a. At the same time, the two sets of magnetic elements B1 to B7 located on the bracket 150 are also arranged in a mirror image relative to the center of the support frame 140 .

5A to 5C illustrate cross-sectional views of the foldable electronic device in different states. Since the size ratio of the magnetic components A1 to A7 is small, and the magnetic components B1 to B7 will flip along with the bracket 150, it is difficult to identify them in the cross-sectional view. The magnetic poles of the magnetic components A1 to A7 and B1 to B7 are listed above the figure, where the symbol "+" represents the magnetic pole S, and the symbol "-" represents the magnetic pole N. Furthermore, FIG. 5A corresponds to the state shown in FIG. 1 , with the first body 110 located in the first position, FIG. 5C corresponds to the state shown in FIG. 2A , with the first body 110 located at the second position, and FIG. 5B is the relationship between FIG. 5A and FIG. 5C, and is regarded as the third position between the first position and the second position.

Please refer to FIGS. 5A to 5C at the same time. Furthermore, in order to allow the bracket 150 to change the corresponding magnetic relationships of the magnetic members A1 to A7 and B1 to B7 as the position of the linking member 113 changes, the magnetic member A1 of this embodiment ~A7 and the magnetic components B1~B7 are as shown in Figure 5A. In the first position, the magnetic components A1~A7 and the magnetic components B1~B7 are aligned and corresponding to each other. The magnetic components A1~A4, A7 and the magnetic components The pieces B1 to B4 and B7 correspond to each other and generate magnetic attraction, while the magnetic pieces A5 and A6 correspond to the magnetic pieces B5 and B6 and generate a magnetic repulsion. Here, the magnetic force of each magnetic component A1-A7, B1-B7 is fixed and equal, and is arranged equidistantly. Therefore, in the first position shown in FIG. 5A , the magnetic attraction force is greater than the magnetic repulsion force, so that the bracket 150 is magnetically attracted to the component 141 of the support frame 140 .

Then, when the user applies force and moves the active parts 111 and 112 so that the active parts 111 and 112 move to the right as shown in Figure 2A, as shown in Figure 5C, the magnetic parts A1 to A7 and the magnetic parts B1 to B7 They are in a staggered state, in which only the magnetic parts A1 to A3 and the magnetic parts B5 to B7 are aligned with each other to generate magnetic force, and A1, A2 and B5 and B6 generate magnetic repulsion, while the magnetic parts A3 and B7 generate magnetic attraction. In this way, when the magnetic repulsion force is greater than the magnetic attraction force, the magnetic repulsion force can smoothly drive the bracket 150 to pivot and expand relative to the support frame 140 .

Please refer to Figure 5A, Figure 5B and Figure 4A at the same time. It should also be mentioned that when the first body 110 is in the first position, the push rod 113a of the linkage 113 is essentially located at the center of the slot 111c (as shown in the figure) 4, as shown in Figure 5A), and maintain a distance T1 from the opposite ends of the slot 111c. When the user applies force and slides the active parts 111 and 112 of the first body 110, the process shown in Figure 5A to 5B occurs, that is, the active parts 111 and 112 slide, but the linking part 113 has not yet been driven until the active part 111 , 112 moves the distance T1 so that the edge of the slot 111c contacts the push rod 113a (that is, the aforementioned third position). At this time, if the active parts 111 and 112 continue to slide in the same direction, the linking part 113 and the active part 113 can be driven. The components 111 and 112 slide together in the same direction, which is the process of Figure 5B to Figure 5C.

In addition, the foldable electronic device 100 further includes an elastic member 170 connected between the linking member 113 and the component 141 of the support frame 140 (as shown in FIGS. 3A and 3B ). When the active members 111 and 112 move from the first position ( FIG. 5A) when moving to the third position (FIG. 5B), since the linking member 113 is not driven as mentioned above, the elastic member 170 is not stressed and has no deformation. When the active members 111 and 112 move from the third position (Fig. 5B) to the second position (Fig. 5C), the elastic member 170 is forced to deform. As shown in FIG. 3A , FIG. 3B or FIG. 4A , the foldable electronic device 100 of this embodiment has a pair of elastic members 170 , which are sufficient to allow the active members 111 and 112 to slide in different directions. As shown in the rightward sliding process in FIGS. 5A to 5C , the elastic member 170 on the left side of FIG. 4A is actually stretched and the elastic member 170 on the right side of FIG. 4A is compressed. On the contrary, when the first body 110 slides from FIG. 1 to FIG. 2B , the elastic member 170 on the right side of FIG. 4A is stretched and the elastic member 170 on the left side of FIG. 4A is compressed. At the same time, the pair of elastic members 170 stabilizes the sliding process of the first body 110 and avoids uneven force.

On the other hand, in this embodiment, in order to allow the first body 110 to stably stop in the second position shown in FIG. 2A or 2B, the elastic force accumulated by the elastic member 170 deformed by force is smaller than that in the second position. The magnetic attraction force generated by the magnetic component, that is, when the first body 110 stays in the second position shown in FIG. 5C, the elastic force accumulated by the elastic component 170 at this time is smaller than the final force generated by the magnetic components A1-A3 and the magnetic components A5-A7. (At the same time, it is also equivalent to the magnetic attraction generated by the magnetic components A1, A2 and the magnetic components B5, B6, which must be greater than the sum of the magnetic repulsion generated by the magnetic components A3, B7 and the elastic force of the elastic component 170).

On the other hand, when wanting to retract the bracket 150 to the support frame 140, the user can apply force on the active parts 111 and 112 to move them from the second position to the first position, that is, from FIG. 5C through FIG. 5B, and reset to the first position shown in FIG. 5A. In the process from FIG. 5C to FIG. 5B , due to the elastic force of the elastic member 170 , the linking member 113 is reset to the position shown in FIG. 5B along with the driving members 111 and 112 . At this time, the magnetic members A1 to A7 have After returning to the state of FIG. 5B , the magnetic attraction force is greater than the magnetic repulsion force, so that the bracket 150 can be attracted back to the support frame 140 . It is worth mentioning at this time that since the active parts 111 and 112 are still in the third position as shown in FIG. 5B , structural interference between the active parts 111 and 112 and the bracket 150 can be effectively avoided.

Please refer to FIG. 2A or FIG. 2B again. In this embodiment, the unfolded bracket 150 will form an acute angle θ with the support frame 140. In addition to allowing the foldable electronic device 100 to be stably in the unfolded state as shown, Carrying the object 200 also ensures that after the aforementioned transition from FIG. 5C to FIG. 5B , the magnetic attraction force generated by the magnetic components A1 - A7 and B1 - B7 can effectively attract the bracket 150 back to the support frame 140 .

6A to 6D are partial enlarged views of foldable electronic devices in different states according to different embodiments of the present invention, with simplified components. In the embodiment shown, two pairs of magnetic components C1, C2, D1, D2 and magnetic components E1, E2, F1, F2 can achieve the expansion and collapse of the bracket 150. Please refer to Figure 6A and Figure 6B. The magnetic components C1, C2, D1, and D2 shown are aligned when the active components 111 and 112 are in the first position, as shown in Figure 6A, and as shown in Figure 6B When in the second position, they are staggered from each other. Correspondingly, in the embodiment shown in FIGS. 6C and 6D , the magnetic elements E1 and E2 and the magnetic elements F1 and F2 are staggered in the first position shown in FIG. 6C , while in the second position shown in FIG. 6D is aligned. From the above, it can be seen that by appropriately adjusting the spacing of the magnetic components and the moving stroke of the linking component 113, the number of magnetic components can be changed according to needs.

7A to 7I are partial enlarged views of foldable electronic devices in different states according to different embodiments of the present invention. Please refer to Figures 7A to 7C, which show the configuration of three pairs of magnetic parts G1~G3 and H1~H3. In the first position shown in Figure 7A, the magnetic parts G1~G3 and H1~H3 are aligned with each other. Pieces G1 and G3 generate magnetic repulsion with magnetic pieces H1 and H3, while magnetic pieces G2 and H2 generate magnetic repulsion. The magnetic attraction/repulsion generated by each corresponding magnetic piece is equal, so the overall magnetic attraction is greater than the magnetic repulsion. Therefore, the first body 110 can be maintained in the first position. Then, in the second position shown in FIG. 7B , the magnetic components G1 - G3 and H1 - H3 are in the first misaligned state, and the magnetic components G1 , G2 and the magnetic components H2 and H3 generate magnetic repulsion to drive the bracket 150 from The support frame 140 is deployed. However, it should be noted that compared to Figure 7B, Figure 7C shows another longer sliding stroke design, which can also smoothly expand and collapse the bracket 150.

Similarly, the present invention can also adjust the magnetic configuration of the magnetic components according to the needs, as long as the magnetic properties of the magnetic components located on the same component are in different configurations, and the magnetic attraction force in the first position is greater than the magnetic repulsion force in the third position. In the second position, the magnetic repulsion force is greater than the magnetic attraction force and other conditions are sufficient. As shown in Figures 7D and 7E, or Figures 7F and 7G, they are also three pairs of magnetic components I1~I3, J1~J3, K1~K3, L1~L3. Compared with Figures 7A~7C, the difference The only difference lies in the arrangement of the magnets, the spacing of the magnetic parts, and the matching of the sliding stroke, but the above conditions are still met, so the expansion and collapse of the bracket 150 can be completed smoothly.

Please refer to Figure 7H and Figure 7I. Different from the above, the magnetic components M1~M3 and N1~N3 of this embodiment are arranged in an unequal distance, and when the active components 111 and 112 are in the first position, only the magnetic component M1 , M3 and the magnetic parts N1 and N3 are aligned with each other and generate magnetic attraction. When the active components 111 and 112 move to the second position, the magnetic components M1 and M2 are aligned with the magnetic components N2 and N3, and a magnetic repulsion force is generated to push the bracket 150 out and unfold it on the support frame 140.

To sum up, in the above-mentioned embodiments of the present invention, the foldable electronic device first uses the support frame to be pivotally connected to the second body through the rotating shaft module, and then the first body is slidably mounted on the support frame, so that the second body can be folded. One body and the support frame can simultaneously perform pivoting opening and closing actions relative to the second body through the rotating shaft module. In the unfolded state, the first body further slides laterally relative to the support frame, thereby exposing the support. A part of the frame is used to facilitate the bracket that is pivoted in this part to be turned out for carrying objects.

Furthermore, the first body includes a driving part and a linking part pivoted on different surfaces of the support frame, and further, at least two pairs of magnetic parts are arranged on the linking part and the bracket and have a magnetic correspondence relationship with each other, so that in the first body When the bracket is in the first position relative to the support frame, the magnetic attraction force generated by the corresponding magnetic components is greater than the magnetic repulsion force, so that the bracket can be adsorbed on the support frame. When the active part drives the linking part to slide relative to the support frame and moves to the second position, by changing the position of the magnetic part and the magnetic correspondence relationship, the magnetic repulsion force is greater than the magnetic attraction force, so as to complete pushing the bracket out of the support frame. Expanded state action.

In this way, the foldable electronic device can further have the function of carrying additional objects through the state transition of the above-mentioned components. Especially when the object is an electronic device, the foldable electronic device can also be configured with relevant electronic modules and sensing elements, so that the foldable electronic device not only provides support for the user to view, but also can communicate via telecommunications. The electronic device enables the foldable electronic device to cooperate with the electronic device it carries.
