Embodiment Construction

[0026] Now look at the attached picture, figure 1 A schematic perspective view of a slim profile collapsible device 10 embodying one embodiment of the present invention is shown. The foldable device 10 is shown in an open device position, including a body 12 and a cover 14 . The body 12 and the lid 14 are connected by a main hinge 16 and are arranged for articulated movement relative to each other about a main hinge pivot axis 18 passing axially and longitudinally through the hinge 16 . Primary hinge 16 may be of any suitable construction and design that provides articulation of body 12 and lid 14, such as self-opening, bi-stable, and friction or "free stop" types.

[0027] The body 12 and the cover 14 support a frame member 20 which is arranged in two parts 22 and 24 . The two parts 22 and 24 of the frame member 20 are connected by a flexible hinge 26 and are bendable so as to surround the fold axially and longitudinally through the flexible hinge 26 as the collapsible devi...

Abstract

A slim profile foldable device has a body and a cover configured for articulated movement about a pivot axis between a closed position and an open position. A frame member is configured for co-operative connection with the body and with the cover and bendable about a folding axis and is non-accessible in the device's closed position and is accessible in the device's open position. The frame member may comprise two sections joined by a compliant hinge configured to bend about the folding axis when the device moves between the open and closed positions and comprises a substantially smooth outward facing surface in the device open position.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to a collapsible device, and more particularly to a collapsible device having a slim profile. Background technique [0002] There is now a strong need to create thinner and thinner devices, especially mobile phone devices. One way to achieve a thin device is to make the folding (display) cover as thin as possible, however in conventional devices there is a limiting factor in the strength of the thin display cover structure because in daily use, the thin display The lid becomes very brittle. Contents of the invention [0003] According to the main aspect of the present invention, a novel concept of a thin or slim foldable device is presented. The body and lid are configured to be hingedly movable about a pivot axis between closed and open positions. The frame member is configured for cooperative connection with the body and with the cover. The frame member is bendable about a folding axis and is inoperative ...
