下面结合附图,具体说明弯折检测装置的具体结构及其工作原理。
请参阅图1,其为柔性显示装置FD的侧面结构示意图,如图1所示,柔性显示装置FD包括柔性显示屏主体FB与弯折检测装置CD。
其中,弯折检测装置CD设置于柔性显示屏主体FB侧边的边缘位置,用于感测柔性显示屏主体FB的弯折状态,所述弯折状态包括柔性显示屏主体FB是否发生弯折以及弯折程度。
柔性显示屏主体FB用于执行图像显示,并且能够实现沿着第一方向F1进行弯折。弯折检测装置CD包括弯折检测模组10与弯折识别电路12。本实施例中,柔性显示屏主体FB可以为有机发光二极管(Organic Light-Emitting Diode,OLED)显示屏。
弯折检测模组10用于执行针对柔性显示屏主体FB弯折的检测,并且将检测结果转换为电信号形式的检测信号提供至弯折识别电路12,弯折识别电路12通过针对检测信号的识别处理而准确判断柔性显示屏主体FB是否发生弯折以及发生弯折的程度。
具体地,请参阅图2,图2为图1所示弯折检测装置的侧面结构的部分拆解示意图。弯折检测模组10包括弹性感测元件100、第一导电组件104以及第二导电组件105。
其中,所述第一导电组件104与第二导电组件105相对设置并且构成感测电容Cx。本实施例中,第一导电组件104与第二导电组件105均由金属导电材质构成,均为在圆心处具有缺口的半圆的平板结构,且第一导电组件104与第二导电组件105平行设置。
弹性感测元件100用于感测柔性显示屏主体FB的弯折状态,也即是弹性感测组件100与柔性显示屏主体FB的平直状态以及弯折状态同步。本实施例中,弹性感测元件100沿着柔性显示屏主体FB的弯折方向即第一方向F1延伸设置于柔性显示屏主体FB内,从而当柔性显示屏主体FB处于平直状态时,弹性感测元件100处于平直状态;当柔性显示屏主体FB处于弯曲状态时,弹性感测元件100也同步处于弯曲状态,且弹性感测元件110的弯曲程度与柔性显示屏FB 的弯曲程度相同。
较佳地,弹性感测元件100为柔性连杆或者弹簧,同时,弹性感测元件100可以沿着第一方向F1全部固定于柔性显示屏主体FB上,并且一端活动连接于第一导电组件104;或者,弹性感测元件100其中一端固定于柔性显示屏主体FB上,另外一端活动连接于第一导电组件104。较佳地,弹性感测元件100与导电组件104相连的一端具有通孔(未标识)。
较佳地,柔性显示屏主体FB对应弹性感测元件100的位置设置有内凹的容置轨道(未示出),也即是弹性感测元件100设置于所述容置轨道内,从而能够确保弹性感测元件100的随着柔性显示屏主体FB弯折时弹性感测元件100的弯折方向与柔性显示屏主体FB的弯折方向一致。
当柔性显示屏主体FB弯折时,弹性感测元件100随柔性显示屏主体FB的弯折并且驱动第一导电组件104相对于第二导电组件105产生相对运动,以改变所述感测电容Cx的电容值。
具体地,弹性感测元件100连接于第一导电组件104,当弹性感测元件100随所述柔性显示屏主体FB发生弯折时,驱动第一导电组件104围绕第一枢轴103转动。第二导电组件105的位置相对于第一枢轴103固定,也即是第二导电组件105和第一枢轴103的位置是固定的。当第一导电组件104围绕第一枢轴103转动时,第一导电组件104相对于第二导电组件105产生相对移动,从而改变了二者正对面积的同时也导致感测电容Cx的电容值也实时发生相应的改变。
请一并参阅图3-5,其中,图3为图2所示部分弯折检测装置的放大结构示意图,图4为图1所示弯折检测装置的立体结构示意图,图5为图1所示弯折检测装置的分解结构示意图。

第一悬臂102包括相对的第一端102a与第二端102b,其中,第一端102a具有第一连接部1021,第二端102b具有第二连接部1022,第一连接部1021与第二 连接部1022均为中空的圆柱形结构。第一连接部1021枢接于第二枢轴101,也即是第一连接部1021通过中空的圆柱形结构套设于第二枢轴101,或者说第二枢轴101贯穿第一连接部1021的中空的圆柱形结构。其中,第一悬臂102在外力驱动下能够通过第一连接部1021围绕第二枢轴101转动。同时,第一悬臂102的第二连接部1022固定连接于第一导电组件104,也即是第一悬臂102的第二连接部1022与第一导电组件104固定连接,不会发生相对转动。本实施例中,第二方向F2不同于第一方向F1。
当弹性感测元件100产生形变发生弯折时,带动第二枢轴101、第一悬臂102沿着形变方向发生位移,并且同时通过第二枢轴101驱动第一悬臂102相对于第二枢轴101转动,第一悬臂102转动时则带动第一导电组件104绕着第一枢轴103转动。
本实施例中,弯折检测模组10包括两个间隔预定距离的第一悬臂102。第一导电组件104夹设于两个第一悬臂102之间;弹性检测元件100夹设于两个第一悬臂102之间,同时,第二枢轴101贯穿两个第一悬臂102的第一连接部1021以及弹性检测元件100。
较佳地,第二枢轴101与第一悬臂102以及第一导电组件104整合为一体结构。
可变更地,在本发明其他实施例中,折检测模组10可以仅包括一个第一悬臂102。
请参阅图6所示,其为图2所述第一导电组件的立体结构示意图。第一导电组件104还包括限位部104a,第一导电组件104通过限位部104a连接于所述第一悬臂102的第二连接部1022,且用于限定所述第一导电组104相对于所述第一悬臂102的位置。
具体地,限位部104a包括呈圆形中空状的贯穿部104b以及限位筋104c,其中,第一枢轴103穿过贯穿部104b内中空部分,从而使得第一导电组件104能够围绕第一枢轴103转动。
限位筋104c呈长条状凸出设置于贯穿部104的外表面,且限位筋104c卡设于第一悬臂102的第二连接部1022内,从而限定第一导电组件104与第一悬臂 102的相对位置固定,防止第一导电组件104相对于第一悬臂102运动。可以理解,对应限位筋104c,第二连接部1022中空部分具有相应的凹槽结构,当第二连接部1022与第一导电组件104连接时,限位筋104c对应卡设于第二连接部1022中凹槽的位置,从而使得第二连接部1022与第一导电组件104的位置相对固定而不会发生相对位移。
请参阅图7与图8,图7为图1所示柔性显示装置发生弯折时的侧面结构示意图,图8为图1所示弯折检测装置未发生弯折时与发生弯折时侧面结构示意图,结合图1和图7-8进行说明柔性显示屏主体FB的弯折状态与感测电容Cx的电容值变化对应关系。
如图1与图8所示,当柔性显示屏主体FB未发生弯折时,第一导电组件104与所述第二导电组件105围绕所述第一枢轴103正对设置,第一导电组件104与所述第二导电组件105具有正对面积A1(斜线阴影部分)。
其中,电容的计算公式为:C=ε*ε0*A/d,其中,ε为极板间相对介电常数,ε0真空介电常数,A为两个电极板之间正对面积,d为两个极板之间的距离。由电容计算公式结合本实施例可知,作为两个极板的第一导电组件104与第二导电组件所处环境(ε*ε0)以及二者之间的距离(d)保持不变时,两个电极板之间正对面积(A)发生改变时,作为感测电容Cx的电容值C则随之发生改变。
此时,第一导电组件104与所述第二导电组件105构成的感测电容Cx对应具有第一电容值C0。
如图7-8所示,当柔性显示屏主体FB发生弯折时,第一导电组件104相对于第二导电组件105绕第一枢轴103转动而产生相对运动,第一导电组件104与所述第二导电组件105的正对面积S1改变为A1-ΔA,依据电容的公式可知,且感测电容Cx对应具有第二电容值为C0-ΔC。
可见,通过弯折检测装置CD中的弯折检测模组10将柔性显示屏主体FB的弯折状态通过电容值进行表征,也即是,弯折检测模组10能够将柔性显示屏主体FB的弯折状态转换为感测电容Cx对应的电容值,那么,通过识别感测电容Cx电容值的变化就能够识别出柔性显示屏主体FB是否发生弯折以及发生弯折 的程度。
在本发明其他变更实施例中,若柔性显示屏主体FB从平直的非弯折状态变化为弯折状态,对应的弹性检测元件100驱动第一导电组件104的运动为使得感测电容Cx的中2个极板的正对面积A由小变为大,也即是正对面积由A1变化为A1+ΔA,则感测电容Cx的电容值则由C0变化为C0-+ΔC。
请参阅图9,其为弯折识别电路的电路结构框图。如图9所示,弯折识别电路12电性连接所述感测电容Cx,用于检测感测电容Cx的电容值的改变量并且所述电容值的改变量识别柔性显示屏主体FB的弯折状态。
本实施例中,弯折识别电路12采用调频式测量电路的形式识别感测电容Cx的电容值变化时形成的改变量,也即是弯折识别电路12将感测电容Cx的电容值的变化以及其改变量转换为振荡器频率的变化,再通过振荡器频率变化转换为对应电压的变化,同时电压值的变化及其改变量即可获知柔性显示屏主体FB是否发生弯折以及发生弯折的程度。
具体地,弯折识别电路包括振荡电感L、振荡器121、限幅放大器122与鉴频器123。
其中,振荡电容L电性连接感测电容Cx的两极,也即是电性连接作为感测电容Cx的两极的第一导电组件104与第二导电组件105。本实施例中,感测电容Cx与振荡电感L相互并联。
振荡器121电性连接振荡电感L,感测电容Cx与振荡电感L作为振荡器121作为振荡器121谐振回路的一部分,当感测电容Cx的电容值发生变化时,振荡器的频率随之发生变化。
具体地,振荡器121的频率f与感测电容Cx的对应关系为:
Figure PCTCN2018125067-appb-000001
C1为振荡器固有电容值;
C2为振荡器分布电容值;
Cx为感测电容Cx的电容值。
如此一来,当柔性显示屏本体FB处于未弯折状态,例如平直状态时,振 荡器121的频率
Figure PCTCN2018125067-appb-000002
当柔性显示屏本体FB处于弯折状态时,振荡器121的频率
Figure PCTCN2018125067-appb-000003
其中,△C表征电容值的改变量。
振荡器121将对应感测电容Cx的频率信号进行输出。
限幅放大器122电性连接于振荡器121,用于针对振荡器121包含有频率信号进行放大处理。
鉴频器123电性连接所述限幅放大器122,用于将所述频率信号转换为电压信号。其中,鉴频器123输出的电压信号与频率信号的对应关系请参阅图10,图10为振荡器121频率(横坐标,f)变化与电压(纵坐标,u)坐标关系图,如图10所示,当感测电容Cx发生改变量ΔC的变化时,振荡器121频率就会对应发生Δf的变化,那么使得电压也对应产生ΔU的变化。
如此一来,通过获取的电压信号中ΔU的变化即可获知柔性显示屏主体FB的弯折状态,也即是能够准确获知柔性显示屏主体FB是否发生弯折,以及发生弯折的程度。
可以理解,在本发明其他实时方式中,构成感测电容Cx的第一导电组件104与第二导电组件105还可以依据实际需求为其他形状,例如圆环形、圆柱形、矩形等等,并不以此为限。
相较于现有技术,弯折检测装置CD的结构紧凑,并且能够准确识别到柔性显示屏主体FB的弯折状态,从而便于柔性显示装置FD依据弯折状态执行后续的其他指令,例如执行熄屏、图像分割等。
本文中应用了具体个例对本发明的原理及实施方式进行了阐述,以上实施例的说明只是用于帮助理解本发明的核心思想;同时,对于本领域的一般技术人员,依据本发明的思想,在具体实施方式及应用范围上均会有改变之处,综上所述,本说明书内容不应理解为对本发明的限制。
