具体实施方式
下面详细描述本申请的实施例，所述实施例的示例在附图中示出，其中自始至终相同或类似的标号表示相同或类似的元件或具有相同或类似功能的元件。下面通过参考附图描述的实施例是示例性的，仅用于解释本申请，而不能理解为对本申请的限制。
下面参考附图描述根据本申请实施例的用于折叠电子设备的转轴组件100、用于折叠电子设备的壳体组件1000和电子设备。壳体组件1000可以包括转轴组件100，转轴组件100可以使得电子设备实现展开和折叠功能，例如，使用时将电子设备展开，便于电子设备的使用，使用后将电子设备折叠，便于电子设备的收纳。
如图1和图2所示，根据本申请的用于折叠电子设备的转轴组件100，包括支架170、转动件130和用于对转动件130施加阻尼力的弹片150。
具体而言，转动件130的一端可转动地设在支架170上，弹片150设在支架170上，转动件130在转动的过程中，弹片150可以对转动件130施加阻尼力，阻尼力可以阻碍转动件130的转动，使得转动件130转动的过程可以更平稳。
电子设备可以包括固定轴110、第一壳体120和第二壳体140，第一壳体120和第二壳体140均可以可转动地设在固定轴110上，当电子设备处于折叠状态时，第一壳体120和第二壳体140层叠设置，当第一壳体120和第二壳体140处于展开状态时，第一壳体120和第二壳体140之间的角度可以为180度，当转轴组件100应用于电子设备时，可以设置两个转轴组件100，其中一个转动件130的远离支架170的一端可以与第一壳体120固定连接，另一个转动件130的远离支架170的一端可以与第二壳体140固定连接，支架170可以固定在固定轴110上。
具体地，手动将第一壳体120向朝向第二壳体140的方向旋转，第一壳体120可以带动转动件130相对于固定轴110转动以实现将第一壳体120向第二壳体140折叠，此时，第一壳体120和第二壳体140层叠设置；手动将第一壳体120向远离第二壳体140 的方向旋转，第一壳体120可以带动转动件130相对于固定轴110转动以实现将第一壳体120和第二壳体140展开，此时第一壳体120和第二壳体140位于同一平面上，第一壳体120转动至与第二壳体140成180°。转动件130在转动的过程中，弹片150可以对转动件130施加阻尼力，阻尼力可以阻碍转动件130的转动，使得转动件130转动的过程可以更平稳，从而使得第一壳体120在朝向或远离第二壳体140运动时更平稳，由此，可以提升用户使用舒适性。
相关技术中，很多折叠式电子设备在折叠和展开的过程中，左右机壳处于晃动状态，使用感差。而根据本申请的转轴组件100，通过设置对转动件130施加阻尼力的弹片150，弹片150对转动件130施加阻尼力，使得转动件130在转动的过程可以更平稳，将转轴组件100运用到电子设备中，从而使得电子设备在展开或折叠的过程中运动更平稳，由此，可以提升用户使用舒适性。
参考图3，支架可以包括第一连接板171和第二连接板172，第二连接板172连接在第一连接板171的端部，第一连接板171和第二连接板172垂直设置。
如图3所示，支架170设有第一枢转轴310，第一枢转轴310设在第一连接板171上，转动件130设有第一枢转孔132，第一枢转孔132适于与第一枢转轴310配合以使得转动件130与支架170可转动地连接。
如图3所示，支架170还设有第二枢转轴320，第二枢转轴320设在第一连接板171上且与第一枢转轴310间隔开，传动件160还设有第二枢转孔163，第二枢转孔163适于与第二枢转轴320配合以使得传动件160与支架170可转动地连接。
如图3所示，支架170上还设有安装部330，安装部330设在第二连接板172上，弹片150安装在安装部330上，弹片150可以胶粘在安装部330，弹片150也可以焊接在安装部330，优选地，弹片150焊接在安装部330上，由此可以增加弹片150与安装部330的连接强度。
如图2-图3所示，转动件130的与支架170连接的一端具有第一齿轮131，第一齿轮131与转动件130同轴转动，转轴组件100还包括传动件160，传动件160可转动地设在支架170上，传动件160包括与第一齿轮131啮合的第二齿轮161以及与第二齿轮161同轴的锁紧轮162，弹片150与锁紧轮162的外周壁止抵。
由此，当电子设备需要折叠或展开时，转动件130相对于支架170转动，通过第一齿轮131和第二齿轮161啮合，使得第二齿轮161相对于支架170转动，第二齿轮161带动第一锁紧轮162转动，弹片150与第一锁紧轮162的外周壁止抵，弹片150和第一锁紧轮162之间具有摩擦力，从而给第一锁紧轮162施加阻尼力，阻尼力阻碍第一锁紧 轮162的转动，通过第二齿轮161、第一齿轮131将阻尼力传递给第一转动件130，从而使得第一转动件130在转动的过程可以更平稳。
参考图2-图3，弹片150上设有凸起151，凸起151与锁紧轮162的外周壁止抵。由此，可以增大弹片150对锁紧轮162的阻尼力，使得传动件160的转动更平稳，进而使得转动件130的转动更平稳，从而可以使得电子设备折叠和展开的过程更平稳，有利于提高用户使用舒适度。
结合图2-图3，锁紧轮162的外周壁上设有第一锁紧槽1621和第二锁紧槽1622，第一锁紧槽1621和第二锁紧槽1622沿锁紧轮162的周向方向间隔开，电子设备具有展开状态和折叠状态，如图4所示，在展开状态，凸起151与第一锁紧槽1621配合，如图7所示，在折叠状态，凸起151与第二锁紧槽1622配合。
可以理解的是，第一锁紧槽1621与凸起151配合可以锁紧锁紧轮162，在锁紧轮162所受的外力不足以使第一锁紧槽1621越过凸起151时，锁紧轮162处于非转动状态，由此，第二齿轮161、第一齿轮131和转动件130处于非转动状态，此时，电子设备可以稳定地处于展开状态，便于用户使用电子设备。在用户想将电子设备折叠时，可以给第一壳体120一个朝向第二壳体140的外力，外力通过第一齿轮131、第二齿轮161传递给锁紧轮162，第一锁紧槽1621越过凸起151，由此，可以实现第一壳体120的转动，第一壳体120转动至与第二壳体140层叠的状态时，第二锁紧槽1622与凸起151配合。
同样地，第二锁紧槽1622与凸起151配合可以锁紧锁紧轮162，在锁紧轮162所受的外力不足以使第二锁紧槽1622越过凸起151时，锁紧轮162处于非转动状态，由此，第二齿轮161、第一齿轮131和第一转动件130处于非转动状态，此时，电子设备可以稳定地处于折叠状态，便于收纳电子设备。在用户想将电子设备展开时，可以给第一壳体120一个远离第二壳体140的外力，外力通过第一齿轮131、第二齿轮161传递给锁紧轮162，第二锁紧槽1622越过凸起151，由此，可以实现第一壳体120的转动，第一壳体120转动至与第二壳体140成180°时，第一锁紧槽1621与凸起151配合。
如图2-图3所示，第一锁紧槽1621和第二锁紧槽1622之间还设有卡位槽1623，参考图6，凸起151与卡位槽1623配合用于将转轴组件100定位在展开状态和折叠状态之间的设定位置。可以理解的是，卡位槽1623与凸起151配合可以锁紧锁紧轮162，在锁紧轮162所受的外力不足以使卡位槽1623越过凸起151时，锁紧轮162处于非转动状态，由此，第二齿轮161、第一齿轮131、转动件130处于非转动状态，转动件130固定在设定位置，从而电子设备可以稳定地固定在设定位置，当凸起151和不同的卡位 槽1623配合时，第一壳体120和第二壳体140之间的角度不同，便于用户根据需求调节电子设备的使用角度，例如当因光线等原因看不清屏幕时，用户可以根据需要调节电子设备的角度以便看清屏幕；又如，当用户因睡姿、坐姿不同而需要电子设备有一个相适应的舒适的使用角度时，用户可以将电子设备调节到想要的特定位置。当用户给转动件130一个外力，外力通过第一齿轮131、第二齿轮161传递给锁紧轮162，使卡位槽1623越过凸起151，由此，可以实现转动件130的转动，电子设备处于折叠的状态时，第二锁紧槽1622与凸起151配合；电子设备处于展开状态时，第一锁紧槽1621与凸起151配合。
可选地，卡位槽1623为多个且沿锁紧轮162的周向方向间隔开，由此可以将转轴组件100定位在展开状态和折叠状态之间的多个设定位置，满足用户的使用需求。
如图2-图3所示，锁紧轮162的外周壁的除去第一锁紧槽1621和第二锁紧槽1622的区域被构造成阻尼部1624，阻尼部1624为沿锁紧轮162的周向方向间隔开的多个，结合图5，凸起151与其中一个阻尼部1624止抵用于给锁紧轮162施加阻尼力。在转动件130转动过程中，带动锁紧轮162的阻尼部1624与凸起151止抵，弹片150被下压，这时弹片150弹力加大，与阻尼部1624摩擦力加大，从而产生更大的阻尼力，使转动件130可以平稳转动，当转动件130继续转动时，凸起151又进入第一锁紧槽1621、第二锁紧槽1622和卡位槽1623中的一个，此时可以实现电子设备特定角度锁紧。
其中，第一齿轮131的分度圆直径可以为d1，第二齿轮161的分度圆直径可以为d2，且满足：d1＞d2，第一齿轮131的转速可以为n1，第二齿轮161的转速可以为n2，由于第一齿轮131和第二齿轮161啮合，根据n1/n2＝d2/d1，可知n1<n2，由此，第二齿轮161可以将转动件130运动的角度放大，使得锁紧轮162更多的外周壁面与弹片150相对滑动，从而使锁紧轮162有足够的空间设置卡位槽1623和阻尼部1624。
进一步地，d1和d2满足：d1/d2＝2。由此，第二齿轮161可以将转动件130运动的角度放大2倍，例如，转动件130转动90°，第二齿轮161可以转动180°，使得锁紧轮162有一半的外周壁面与弹片150相对滑动，从而使锁紧轮162有足够的空间设置卡位槽1623和阻尼部1624。
如图1所示，根据本申请的用于折叠电子设备的壳体组件1000，包括固定轴110、两个如上所述的转轴组件100、第一壳体120和第二壳体140。两个转轴组件100的支架170均设在固定轴110上且间隔开。第一壳体120与其中一个转轴组件100的转动件130的远离支架170的一端固定连接，第二壳体140与另一个转轴组件100的转动件130的远离支架170的一端固定连接，电子设备在折叠状态，第一壳体120和第二壳体140 层叠设置。由此，通过转轴组件100，可以便于第一壳体120和第二壳体140的层叠和展开。
其中，两个转轴组件100可以沿固定轴110的轴线方向间隔排布，也可以沿与固定轴110的轴线方向垂直方向间隔排布，这里不做具体限制。
其中，支架170可以可靠地支撑转动件130、传动件160和弹片150。将转动件130、传动件160和弹片150安装到支架170上后，再整体安装到固定轴110上，可以便于转动件130、传动件160和弹片150的安装。可选地，两个转轴组件100的支架170可以为一个，两个转轴组件100的转动件130、传动件160和弹片150均安装在一个支架170上。
具体地，手动将第一壳体120向朝向第二壳体140的方向旋转，第一壳体120可以带动转动件130相对于固定轴110转动以实现将第一壳体120向第二壳体140折叠，此时，第一壳体120和第二壳体140层叠设置；手动将第一壳体120向远离第二壳体140的方向旋转，第一壳体120可以带动转动件130相对于固定轴110转动以实现将第一壳体120和第二壳体140展开，此时第一壳体120和第二壳体140位于同一平面上，第一壳体120转动至与第二壳体140成180°。转动件130在转动的过程中，弹片150可以对转动件130施加阻尼力，阻尼力可以阻碍转动件130的转动，使得转动件130转动的过程可以更平稳，从而使得第一壳体120在朝向或远离第二壳体140运动时更平稳，由此，可以提升用户使用舒适性。
根据本申请的壳体组件1000，通过设置对转动件130施加阻尼力的弹片150，弹片150对转动件130施加阻尼力，使得转动件130在转动的过程可以更平稳，将转轴组件100运用到壳体组件1000上，从而使得电子设备在展开或折叠的过程中运动更平稳，由此，可以提升用户使用舒适性。
进一步地，如图2-图3所示，转动件130的与支架170连接的一端具有第一齿轮131，第一齿轮131与转动件130同轴转动，转轴组件100还包括传动件160，传动件160可转动地设在支架170上，传动件160包括与第一齿轮131啮合的第二齿轮161以及与第二齿轮161同轴的锁紧轮162，弹片150与锁紧轮162的外周壁止抵。
当电子设备需要折叠或展开时，手动将第一壳体120向朝向或远离第二壳体140的方向旋转，第一壳体120可以带动转动件130相对于固定轴110转动，通过第一齿轮131和第二齿轮161啮合，使得第二齿轮161相对于固定轴110转动，第二齿轮161带动锁紧轮162转动，弹片150与锁紧轮162的外周壁止抵，弹片150和锁紧轮162之间具有摩擦力，从而给锁紧轮162施加阻尼力，阻尼力阻碍锁紧轮162的转动，通过第二 齿轮161、第一齿轮131将阻尼力传递给转动件130，从而使得转动件130在转动的过程中可以更平稳。
结合图2-图3，更进一步地，锁紧轮162的外周壁上设有第一锁紧槽1621和第二锁紧槽1622，第一锁紧槽1621和第二锁紧槽1622沿锁紧轮162的周向方向间隔开，电子设备具有展开状态和折叠状态，如图4所示，在展开状态，凸起151与第一锁紧槽1621配合，如图7所示，在折叠状态，凸起151与第二锁紧槽1622配合。可以理解的是，第一锁紧槽1621与凸起151配合可以锁紧锁紧轮162，在锁紧轮162所受的外力不足以使第一锁紧槽1621越过凸起151时，锁紧轮162处于非转动状态，由此，第二齿轮161、第一齿轮131和转动件130、第一壳体120处于非转动状态，此时，第一壳体120可以稳定地处于展开状态，便于用户使用电子设备。在用户想将电子设备折叠时，可以给第一壳体120一个朝向第二壳体140的外力，外力通过第一齿轮131、第二齿轮161传递给锁紧轮162，第一锁紧槽1621越过凸起151，由此，可以实现第一壳体120的转动，第一壳体120转动至与第二壳体140层叠的状态时，第二锁紧槽1622与凸起151配合。
同样地，第二锁紧槽1622与凸起151配合可以锁紧锁紧轮162，在锁紧轮162所受的外力不足以使第二锁紧槽1622越过凸起151时，锁紧轮162处于非转动状态，由此，第二齿轮161、第一齿轮131和转动件130、第一壳体120处于非转动状态，此时，第一壳体120可以稳定地处于折叠状态，便于收纳电子设备。在用户想将电子设备展开时，可以给第一壳体120一个远离第二壳体140的外力，外力通过第一齿轮131、第二齿轮161传递给锁紧轮162，第二锁紧槽1622越过凸起151，由此，可以实现第一壳体120的转动，第一壳体120转动至与第二壳体140成180°时，第一锁紧槽1621与凸起151配合。
如图2-图3所示，第一锁紧槽1621和第二锁紧槽1622之间还设有卡位槽1623，参考图6，凸起151与卡位槽1623配合用于将转轴组件100定位在展开状态和折叠状态之间的设定位置。可以理解的是，卡位槽1623与凸起151配合可以锁紧锁紧轮162，在锁紧轮162所受的外力不足以使卡位槽1623越过凸起151时，锁紧轮162处于非转动状态，由此，第二齿轮161、第一齿轮131、转动件130和第一壳体120处于非转动状态，转动件130固定在设定位置，从而，第一壳体120可以稳定地固定在设定位置，便于用户调节电子设备的使用角度，例如当因光线等原因看不清屏幕时，用户可以根据需要调节电子设备的角度以便看清屏幕；又如，当用户因睡姿、坐姿不同而需要电子设备有一个相适应的舒适的使用角度时，用户可以将电子设备调节到想要的特定位置。当 用户给第一壳体120一个朝向或远离第二壳体140的外力，外力通过第一齿轮131、第二齿轮161传递给锁紧轮162，使卡位槽1623越过凸起151，由此，可以实现第一壳体120的转动，第一壳体120转动至与第二壳体140层叠设置时，第二锁紧槽1622与凸起151配合；第一壳体120转动至与第二壳体140成180°时，第一锁紧槽1621与凸起151配合。
根据本申请的电子设备，包括如上所述的壳体组件1000和显示屏，显示屏的部分设在第一壳体120上，显示屏的部分设在第二壳体140上。
根据本申请的电子设备，通过设置对转动件130施加阻尼力的弹片150，弹片150对转动件130施加阻尼力，使得转动件130在转动的过程可以更平稳，将转轴组件100运用到电子设备中，从而使得电子设备在展开或折叠的过程中运动更平稳，由此，可以提升用户使用舒适性。
