请结合图1至图3,本实施方式的电子设备100包括壳组件10、柔性显示屏30、带动件50及驱动机构70。壳组件10为中空结构。带动件50、驱动机构70以及摄像头90等组件均可设置在壳组件10。可以理解的是,本申请实施方式的电子设备100包括但不限于手机、平板电脑等移动终端或其它便携式设备。在本文中,以电子设备100以手机为例进行说明。
在本实施方式中,壳组件10包括第一壳体12和第二壳体14,第一壳体12和第二壳体14能够相对运动。在本实施方式中,第一壳体12和第二壳体14滑动连接,也即是说,第二壳体14能够相对第一壳体12滑动。例如,第一壳体12和第二壳体14中的一者可以设有滑轨,另一者可沿滑轨滑动。
请参阅图4及图5,第一壳体12与第二壳体14共同形成有容置空间16。容置空间16可用于放置带动件50、摄像头60及驱动机构70等部件。壳组件10还可包括后盖18,后盖18与第一壳体12与第二壳体14共同形成容置空间16。
带动件50设置于第二壳体14,柔性显示屏30的一端设置于第一壳体12,柔性显示屏30绕过带动件50,且柔性显示屏的另一端设置于容置空间16内,以使部分柔性显示屏隐藏于容置空间16内,隐藏于容置空间16内的部分柔性显示屏30可不点亮。如图5所示,第一壳体12和第二壳体14相对远离,可通过带动件50带动柔性显示屏30展开,以使得更多的柔性显示屏30暴露于容置空间16外。点亮暴露于容置空间16外部的柔性显示屏30,以使得电子设备100所呈现的显示区域变大。例如,从图1至图2可以看出电子设备的柔性显示屏30从收缩状态到伸展状态的形态变化对比。
请再次参阅图4及图5,带动件50可为外部带有齿52的转轴结构,柔性显示屏30通过啮合等方式与带动件50相联动,第一壳体12和第二壳体14相对远 离时,通过带动件50带动啮合于带动件50上的部分柔性显示屏30移动并展开。
可以理解的是,带动件50还可为不附带齿52的圆轴,第一壳体12和第二壳体14相对远离时,通过带动件50将卷绕于带动件50上的部分柔性显示屏30撑开,以使更多的柔性显示屏暴露于容置空间16外,并处于平展状态。具体的,带动件50可转动地设置于第二壳体14,在逐步撑开柔性显示屏30时,带动件50可随柔性显示屏30的移动而转动。
在其它实施方式中,带动件50也可固定在第二壳体14上,带动件50具备光滑的表面。在将柔性显示屏30撑开时,带动件50通过其光滑的表面与柔性显示屏30可滑动接触。可以理解的是,带动件50也可以省略,第二壳体14远离第一壳体12的一端可为光滑表面,以实现对柔性显示屏30的带动作用。
当第一壳体12和第二壳体14相对靠近时,柔性显示屏可通过带动件50带动收回。或者,电子设备100还包括复位件(图未示),柔性显示屏收容于容置空间16的一端与复位件联动,在第一壳体12和第二壳体14相对靠近时,复位件带动柔性显示屏30复位,进而使得部分柔性显示屏收回于容置空间16内。
在本实施方式中,驱动机构70可设置在容置空间16内,驱动机构70可与第二壳体14相联动,驱动机构70用于驱动第二壳体14相对于第一壳体12做相离运动,进而带动柔性显示屏组件30伸展。可以理解的是,驱动机构70也可以省略,用户可以直接通过手动等方式来使得第一壳体12和第二壳体14相对运动。
需要说明的是,除了按照图1至图5的硬件排布设计使柔性显示屏30可以在电子设备的横向方向上进行伸缩(例如在左右方向上进行的伸缩)外,在其它一些实施方式中,还可以改变结构和硬件排布设计的方向使得柔性显示屏30可以在电子设备的纵向方向上进行伸缩(例如在上下方向上进行的伸缩)。
请一并参阅图6及图7,图6为第二壳体14相对第一壳体12滑动至第一位置时的结构示意图,图7为第二壳体14相对第一壳体12滑动至第二位置时的结构示意图。当第二壳体14相对第一壳体12滑动到第一位置时,电子设备100可以获得相对较大的显示面积,以提升电子设备100的使用体验。而第二壳体14相对第一壳体12滑动到第二位置时,电子设备100具有相对较小的外形尺寸,便于携带。
为了使电子设备100在使用时保持较大的显示面积,在本申请实施例中,电子设备100还包括用于使得第一壳体12与第二壳体14之间相互定位的锁止装置20。锁止装置20包括第一支架210、第二支架230、连杆机构250及定位机构270。
第一支架210设置于第一壳体12上,第二支架230设置于第二壳体14上。第一支架210及第二支架230可随第一壳体12或第二壳体14的运动而靠近或远离。连杆机构250连接于第一支架210和第二支架230之间,连杆机构250能够随第一壳体12与第二壳体14间的距离改变而收缩或拉伸。
定位机构270连接于第二支架230。请再次参阅图6,连杆机构250处于拉 伸状态时,连杆机构250能够与定位机构270相抵持。由于连杆机构250与定位机构270相抵持状态,使得连接在第一支架210以及第二支架230之间的连杆机构250被锁止,进而以使第一壳体12与第二壳体14的位置相对固定,电子设备100可以保持拉伸状态,在使用时,第一壳体12或者第二壳体14不会因为外力影响而缩回,保证了在使用时电子设备100的尺寸固定。
由于第二壳体14能够相对第一壳体12滑动,以带动至少部分柔性显示屏30进出第一壳体12或第二壳体14,从而改变用户所能看到的显示区域的大小,并在进出过程中带动连杆机构250收缩或拉伸。连杆机构250与定位机构270相抵持,以使柔性显示屏30相对第一壳体12或第二壳体14固定,进而使得电子设备100保持拉伸状态,显示区域大小不会因为外力的影响意外改变,进而提升了用户体验。
可以理解的是,在本实施例中,第一位置、第二位置可以视为第二壳体14相对第一壳体12运动的两个极限位置。在第一位置时,暴露在壳组件10外的柔性显示屏30的显示面积达到最大状态,在正常情况下,第二壳体14不能再相对第一壳体12做相对远离运动。第一位置可以通过在锁止装置20的锁止来保持。在第二位置时,柔性显示屏30收入壳组件10中,显示面积达到最小状态,在正常情况下,第二壳体14不能再相对第一壳体12做相向靠近运动。
请一并参阅图8,在本实施例中,连杆机构250包括第一连杆252、第二连杆254及抵持件256。第一连杆252的两端分别可转动地连接于第一支架210及抵持件256,第二连杆254的两端分别可转动地连接于第二支架230及抵持件256。
设定第一壳体12及第二壳体14相对运动的方向为第一方向。第一支架210与第二支架230随第一壳体12及第二壳体14在第一方向上相互靠近或远离,以通过第一连杆252及第二连杆254带动抵持件256运动。
抵持件256随第一连杆252及第二连杆254的摆动而运动,且抵持件256能够与定位机构270在垂直于第一方向的第二方向相抵持,以使第一支架210与第二支架230的位置相对固定,进而使得第一壳体12与第二壳体14相固定。
连杆机构250还可包括多个第一连杆252及多个第二连杆254,多个第一连杆252间平行设置,多个第二连杆254间平行设置。随着第一壳体12与第二壳体14间的相对运动,多个第一连杆252一同摆动且保持平行,多个第二连杆254一同摆动且保持平行。
连杆机构250具体可为两个,两个连杆机构250分别设置于定位机构270的两侧。在定位机构270的两侧分别设置连杆机构250,可保证第一壳体12与第二壳体14之间滑动时各组件受力均匀,提升滑动的平稳度和流畅度。
在第二壳体14相对第一壳体12拉伸时,两个连杆机构250中的抵持件256可随之相向运动,并分别与定位机构270的两侧相抵持,以使得第一壳体12与第二壳体14间位置相锁定。
可以理解,在满足滑动平稳度和流畅度的前提下,连杆机构250还可为其 它数量,如一个或两个以上,不限于上述的两个。
请再次参阅图6,第一壳体12具有容置腔122,能够容置电池(图未示)或电路板(图未示)等器件。锁止装置20位于容置腔122外,且与第一壳体12及第二壳体14均相连接。锁止装置20连接第一壳体12和第二壳体14且能够引导第二壳体14相对第一壳体12平稳滑动,进而提高第二壳体14与第一壳体12间滑动的稳定性和可靠性。同时,锁止装置20设置在容置腔122外侧,可以避免了占据和隔断容置腔122的空间,有利于电子设备100内部器件的摆放和堆叠。
具体的,容置空间16指的是壳组件10所形成的整体具备容置功能的空间,容置腔122可为容置空间16的一部分。驱动机构70可位于容置腔122中。
请参阅图9,连杆机构250还可包括卡扣258。卡扣258设置于抵持件256的端部。定位机构270还可设有卡槽272,卡扣258与卡槽272相卡接,以使抵持件256与定位机构270相抵持。
具体在本实施例中,请一并参阅图9和图10,其中图10为图9中A处的局部放大图,卡槽272大体可为“C”字形结构。卡槽272的槽壁可包括顶壁272a以及位于顶壁272a两侧的侧壁272b。卡扣258可具体为弹性卡扣258,弹性卡扣258的端面与顶壁272a在第二方向上相抵持。
定位机构270能够相对弹性卡扣258在第一方向上运动,以挤压弹性卡扣258并使弹性卡扣258脱出卡槽272。
具体的,请一并参阅图11和图12,其中,图12为图11中锁止装置20在I-I’处的截面图,定位机构270能够相对弹性卡扣258运动,使得定位机构270挤压弹性卡扣258,弹性卡扣258受到定位机构270的作用力而缩进。请一并参阅图13及图14,其中,图14为图13中锁止装置20在II-II’处的截面图,在定位机构270的作用力的情况下,弹性卡扣258脱出卡槽272,弹性卡扣258的端面与顶壁272a在第二方向上不再相抵持,进而使得连杆机构250与定位机构270之间相解锁,第一壳体12与第二壳体14之间进而可恢复相对运动关系,第二壳体14可相对第一壳体12缩入,进而减小整个电子设备100的体积,便于用户携带。
请一并参阅图15及图16,其中,图16为图15中锁止装置20在III-III’处的截面图,在电子设备100拉伸时,定位机构270可通过其侧壁挤压弹性卡扣258,以使得弹性卡扣258缩入。随着第一壳体12与第二壳体14之间的继续拉伸,弹性卡扣258进入卡槽272位置并弹出,进而与卡槽272相卡接,以使抵持件256与定位机构270相抵持,以再次锁定第一壳体12与第二壳体14间的相对位置,保持电子设备100的展开状态。
弹性卡扣258或卡槽272的侧壁272b可以为楔形结构,以使便于弹性卡扣258与卡槽272之间因挤压而解锁。此外,定位机构270的侧壁为楔形结构,在电子设备100拉伸时,定位机构270通过其楔形结构的侧壁挤压弹性卡扣258,以使得弹性卡扣258更容易因为定位机构270的压力而缩入,待弹性卡扣258进入卡槽272位置时,弹性卡扣258重新弹出并与卡槽272相卡接,以使抵持件256 与定位机构270相抵持,进而再次锁定第一壳体12与第二壳体14间的相对位置。
可以理解,若弹性卡扣258或定位机构270之间相互接触的表面足够光滑,可使得弹性卡扣258足以流畅地卡入或脱出于卡槽272,则弹性卡扣258、卡槽272的侧壁272b以及定位机构270的侧壁还可以为其它形状,不限于楔形。
具体的,请再次参阅图15,定位机构270还可包括驱动件274以及锁止件276。驱动件274连接于第二支架230,锁止件276设置于驱动件274。驱动件274可与驱动机构70相联动,驱动机构70可通过驱动件274来驱使第二壳体14相对第一壳体12运动,进而使得电子设备100能够拉伸或收缩。
卡槽272可设于锁止件276。具体在本实施例中,锁止件276与驱动件274大体可成十字形连接关系,锁止件276可与两侧的连杆机构250相抵持,以使得第二壳体14相对第一壳体12锁止。可以理解,锁止件276与驱动件274间不限于十字形连接,两者之间的连接关系具体由连杆机构250的数量、位置、形状等因素决定。
驱动件274的一端可与第二支架230滑动连接,以使定位机构270相对第二支架230可滑动。定位机构270相对第二支架230可滑动,进而使得第二壳体14在与第一壳体12间锁止时,定位机构270仍然能够相对弹性卡扣258运动,进而挤压弹性卡扣258,使得弹性卡扣258脱出卡槽272,完成第一壳体12与第二壳体14间的解锁,使第一壳体12与第二壳体14间恢复可相对运动状态。
具体在本实施例中,请一并参阅图17,图17为图15中电子设备100在B处的局部放大图。第二支架230可设有限位槽232,驱动件274的一端可滑动地设于限位槽232中,且由限位槽232两侧的槽壁232a限位。驱动件274的一端可滑动地设于限位槽232中,使得驱动件274相对第二壳体14可运动。限位槽232可延第一方向延伸,以使驱动件274可延第一方向与第二支架230滑动连接。
在锁止状态下,电子设备100需要收缩时,驱动机构70可带动驱动件274运动,由于驱动件274相对第二壳体14仍可运动,并未随第二壳体14一同被锁止,故驱动件274可移动并驱使弹性卡扣258脱出卡槽272,完成第一壳体12与第二壳体14间的解锁。驱动件274同时又被限位槽232的槽壁232a限位,使得解锁后,驱动件274可在驱动机构70的驱动下进一步拉动第二壳体14朝向第一壳体12运动,进而实现电子设备100的收缩。
具体的,第二支架230可包括主架体234及滑动连接部236,滑动连接部236连接于主架体234上。具体在本实施例中,滑动连接部236与主架体234间大体可成“T”字形连接。限位槽232可开设于滑动连接部236,驱动件274的一端可滑动地设于限位槽232中,以与滑动连接部236滑动连接。
进一步的,滑动连接部236的两侧均设有限位槽232,驱动件274包括主体部274a以及位于主体部274a一端的两个卡勾部274b,两个卡勾部274b分别可滑动地设于两个限位槽232中。通过两个卡勾部274b,可保证驱动件274与第二支架230间紧密连接,且能够保证驱动件274对第二支架230在拉拽或推动时保持平稳。
以下说明本实施例所提供的电子设备100的具体运作原理:
当需要将电子设备100展开时,驱动件274推动第二支架230,以使第二壳体14相对第一壳体12在第一方向上展开,柔性显示屏30从电子设备100内部释放出,以扩大展示给用户的显示面积。随着电子设备100的展开,连杆机构250也随之展开,由于第一连杆252和第二连杆254的摆动,抵持件256随第一连杆252和第二连杆254向第二方向运动,且结合连杆机构250的展开运动,以使抵持件256运动轨迹形成一个弧形。当电子设备100展开至最大的极限位置,即第一位置时,第二壳体14相对第一壳体12在第一方向无法再展开,整个电子设备100的尺寸固定,此时抵持件256上的弹性卡扣258卡入定位机构270中的卡槽272中,且通过弹性卡扣258的端面与顶壁272a在第二方向上相抵持,进而保持第一壳体12与第二壳体14之间的位置固定。
由于弹性卡扣258的端面与顶壁272a在第二方向上相抵持,使得第一壳体12与第二壳体14之间的位置被锁定,遇到外力时,第二壳体14也不会因外力而向第一壳体12缩进,进而保证了电子设备100展开的固定尺寸,保证了用户体验。
当需要电子设备100收缩为较小尺寸时,驱动件274在驱动机构70的驱动下运动,进而带动定位机构270能够相对弹性卡扣258在第一方向上运动。定位机构270挤压弹性卡扣258并使弹性卡扣258脱出卡槽272,以使整个连杆机构250与定位机构270之间解锁,第一壳体12与第二壳体14之间恢复可运动状态。驱动件274继续运动,进而拉动第二壳体14相对第一壳体12运动,从而带动整个电子设备100收缩,可一直收缩至第二位置。电子设备100收缩后变为较小尺寸,方便用户携带。
请再次参阅图9,第一支架210上还可开设有滑动槽210a。驱动件274远离第二支架230的一端滑动配合于滑动槽210a。通过驱动件274与卡槽272的配合,使得驱动件274能够相对第一支架210移动。
第一支架210具体可包括本体212和挡板214。挡板214可拆卸地连接于本体212并与本体212共同形成滑动槽210a。
驱动件274还可设有限位筋(图未示),限位筋可以视为驱动件274的一部分。驱动件274的除限位筋以外的部分可以形成平整的表面,限位筋凸出于该平整表面。限位筋能够与第一支架210相抵持,以限制驱动件274相对第一支架210的移动范围。
具体的,限位筋可设置于驱动件274的远离第二支架230的一端。在第二壳体14相对第一壳体12移动至第一位置时,限位筋抵接于第一支架210,进而限定了驱动件274的移动范围,也限定了第二壳体14的移动范围。
请参阅图18,在本实施例中,卡扣258具体还为电动卡扣258a,定位机构270设有至少两个卡槽272,电动卡扣258a择一与至少两个卡槽272相卡接,以使抵持件256与定位机构270相抵持。通过电动的方式,使得卡扣258可自动弹出或缩进。在电子设备100需要锁止时,电动卡扣258a在运动到卡槽272处后 自动弹出,进而使得电动卡扣258a与卡槽272相卡合,电动卡扣258a能够在第二方向上与卡槽272的槽壁抵持,以限定第一壳体12与第二壳体14之间的相对位置,避免电子设备100因外力而收缩或展开。当需要解锁电子设备100时,电动卡扣258a自动缩进,进而使得电动卡扣258a从卡槽272中脱出,第二壳体14与第一壳体12之间再次恢复可相对运动,电子设备100可自由收缩或展开。
在本实施例中,通过定位机构270设有至少两个卡槽272,电动卡扣258a择一与至少两个卡槽272相卡接,以使抵持件256与定位机构270相抵持,进而使得第一壳体12与第二壳体14能在多个位置都相对定位,以实现在上述的第一位置和第二位置之间设置多个中间位置,第二壳体14能够相对第一壳体12在多个中间位置的定位,并使得柔性显示屏30在不同的中间位置具有不同的显示面积,从而拓展电子设备100的使用场景。
可以理解,当卡扣258具体为电动卡扣258a时,驱动件274与第二支架230间可为固定连接,无需通过滑动连接以使卡扣258解锁。
此外,在本申请另一实施例中,上述电子设备100中的第一支架210和第二支架230可以省去,连杆机构250可直接连接于第一壳体12和第二壳体14之间,定位机构270可直接连接于第二壳体14。连杆机构250能够随第一壳体12与第二壳体14间的距离改变而收缩或拉伸。连杆机构250处于拉伸状态时,连杆机构250能够与定位机构270相抵持,以使第一壳体12与第二壳体14的位置相对固定。
具体的,在连杆机构250中,第一连杆252的一端可直接连接于第一壳体12,第二连杆254的一端可直接连接于第二壳体14。此外,上述定位机构270可与第二壳体14间滑动连接,以保证在第二壳体14与第一壳体12位置锁止时,定位机构270能够滑动并驱使卡扣258解锁。
上述电子设备100及其锁止装置20中,连杆机构250处于拉伸状态时,连杆机构250能够与定位机构270相抵持。由于连杆机构250与定位机构270相抵持状态,使得连接在第一支架210以及第二支架230之间的连杆机构250被锁止,进而以使第一壳体12与第二壳体14的位置相对固定,电子设备100可以保持拉伸状态,在使用时,第一壳体12或者第二壳体14不会因为外力影响而缩回,保证了用户的体验。
需要指出的是,锁止装置20还可用在其它设备上,以用于锁止装置20所在设备的位置锁定或解锁,并不仅限于上述的电子设备100。
以上所述实施例的各技术特征可以进行任意的组合,为使描述简洁,未对上述实施例中的各个技术特征所有可能的组合都进行描述,然而,只要这些技术特征的组合不存在矛盾,都应当认为是本说明书记载的范围。
以上所述实施例仅表达了本申请的几种实施方式,其描述较为具体和详细,但并不能因此而理解为对申请专利范围的限制。应当指出的是,对于本领域的普通技术人员来说,在不脱离本申请构思的前提下,还可以做出若干变形和改进,这些都属于本申请的保护范围。因此,本申请专利的保护范围 应以所附权利要求为准。
