Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present disclosure relates to an electronic device. Background Art

[0002] With the increasing development of display technology for electronic devices, high screen-to-body ratio and even full-screen are becoming more and more popular among users. For example, the screen-to-body ratio of smartphones is getting higher and higher, so that more display content can be provided to users within the same body size, which is sought after by users. However, the front of the electronic device needs to be equipped with necessary devices such as cameras, for example, for face recognition when unlocking, or selfies. These necessary devices will occupy a certain structural space, resulting in the existing high-screen-to-body ratio electronic devices usually needing to retain a black notch on the top of the front screen glass to place these necessary devices, such as a display with a bangs design. This will occupy a certain display space, and the screen-to-body ratio has not yet met the expectations of users. Summary of the invention

[0024] An embodiment of the present disclosure provides an electronic device. The electronic device includes a first body and a second body. The first body includes at least a first display screen, which is exposed on the first surface of the first body. The second body is movably connected to the first body. The second body includes at least a second display screen and a collection device. The second display screen is exposed on the first surface of the second body, and the collection device collects at least through the first window of the second body, and is located on a surface of the second body that is different from the first surface of the second body. Wherein, if the second body is in a first relative position relative to the first body, the first surface of the second body is in the same plane as the first surface of the first body; and if the second body is in a second relative position relative to the first body, the plane where the first window of the second body is located is parallel to the first surface of the first body.

[0025] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the second display screen and the acquisition device of the electronic device are located on the second body, and as the relative position of the second body and the first body changes, the position distribution of the second display screen and the acquisition device in the electronic device also changes accordingly, so that the electronic device can have a variety of forms, which provides more flexibility for the use of the electronic device and can meet the various functional requirements of the electronic device.

[0026] Figure 1A and Figure 1B The schematic diagram shows the appearance structure of the first body 101 and the second body 102 of the electronic device 100 in different relative positions according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0027] Specifically, Figure 1A The schematic diagram shows the appearance structure of the first body 101 and the second body 102 of the electronic device 100 in a first relative position. Figure 1B The schematic diagram shows the appearance structure of the first body 101 and the second body 102 of the electronic device 100 in a second relative position.

[0028] like Figure 1A and Figure 1B As shown, the electronic device 100 includes a first body 101 and a second body 102. The second body 102 is connected to the first body 101 via a movable connection member (such as a rotating shaft, etc.).

[0029] The first body 101 at least includes a first display screen 1014. The display area of ​​the first display screen 1014 is exposed on the first surface 1012 of the first body.

[0030] The second body 102 includes at least a second display screen 1024 (see Figure 1A ) and the collection device 1028 (see Figure 1B ). The display area of ​​the second display screen 1024 is exposed on the first surface 1022 of the second body. The collection device 1028 collects at least through the first window 1030 of the second body 102. The first window 1030 of the second body 102 is located on a surface of the second body 102 different from the first surface 1022 of the second body (for example, a surface 1026 opposite to the first surface 1022 of the second body). It can be understood that Figure 1A and Figure 1B In the illustration, the first window 1030 is located on the surface 1026 opposite to the first surface 1022 of the second body, which is only an example. According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the first window 1030 can be located on any surface of the second body 102 other than the first surface 1022 of the second body (for example, a surface perpendicular to the first surface 1022 of the second body, i.e., Figure 1A ).

[0031] If the second body 102 is in a first relative position relative to the first body 101, the first surface 1022 of the second body is in the same plane as the first surface 1012 of the first body. If the second body 102 is in a second relative position relative to the first body 101, the plane where the first window 1030 of the second body 102 is located is parallel to the first surface 1012 of the first body.

[0032] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the plane where the first window 1030 of the second body 102 is located is parallel to the first surface 1012 of the first body, and the first window 1030 of the second body 102 and the first surface 1012 of the first body are in the same plane (such as Figure 1B), or the first window 1030 of the second body 102 and the first surface 1012 of the first body may be in different parallel planes. The specific situation is related to the relative position of the first window 1030 on the second body 102 and the first surface 1022 of the second body.

[0033] Understandably, Figure 1A and Figure 1B The appearance of the first body 101 and the second body 102 shown in the figure is only for illustration and does not constitute a limitation on the technical solution of the present disclosure. Figure 1A In the diagram, the second body 102, the first surface 1022 of the second body, and the second display screen 1024 are Figure 1A The fringe shape shown in the viewing angle is only an example. According to the embodiment of the present disclosure, the second body 102, the first surface 1022 of the second body, and the second display screen 1024 can be any shape and / or any layout (for example, the layout in 2B). Correspondingly, according to the embodiment of the present disclosure, the shape of the first body 101, the first surface 1012 of the first body, and the first display screen 1014 can also be any shape and / or any layout.

[0034] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the relative position of the second body 102 and the first body 101 is changed from the first relative position to the second relative position, which can be formed by rotating or flipping in any manner. Specifically, Figure 2A An example in which the second body 102 and the first body 101 are flipped relative to each other is shown.

[0035] Figure 2A An example of a position change process of the first body 101 and the second body 102 of the electronic device 100 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is schematically shown.

[0036] like Figure 2A As shown, the second body 102 is movably connected to the first body 101 via a rotation axis parallel to the x direction (not shown in the figure due to occlusion). As the second body 102 rotates along the rotation axis parallel to the x direction, the second body 102 can flip from a first relative position relative to the first body 101 to a second relative position.

[0037] Figure 2AThe relative position of the second body 102 and the first body 101 shown at present is a transitional position between the first relative position and the second relative position. From the state shown at present in the figure, two surfaces of the second body 102 can be seen, wherein a first window 1030 is provided on the surface 1026, and the acquisition device 1028 can acquire images through the first window 1030. The first surface 1022 of the second body is blocked. For example, the first surface 1022 of the second body can be a blocked surface perpendicular to the y direction in the figure in the state shown at present.

[0038] In some embodiments, when Figure 2A When the rotation axis parallel to the x-direction is located at the lower part of the second body 102, when the second body 102 rotates along the rotation axis to reach a second relative position relative to the first body 101, the surface 1026 of the second body 102 can protrude from the first surface 1012 of the first body. At this time, the plane where the first window 1030 of the second body 102 is located is parallel to but not coplanar with the first surface 1012 of the first body.

[0039] remove Figure 2A In addition to the illustrated connection with the rotating shaft parallel to the x-axis direction, according to the embodiment of the present disclosure, the second body 102 in the electronic device 100 can also be movably connected to the first body 101 through the rotating shaft parallel to the y-direction. Specifically, the bottom of the second body 102 can be connected to the top of the first body 101 through the rotating shaft parallel to the y-direction. In this way, the second body 102 can rotate clockwise or counterclockwise relative to the first body 101 around the rotating shaft parallel to the y-direction, thereby changing the relative position with the first body 101.

[0040] Figure 2B Another example of a position change process of the first body 101 and the second body 102 of the electronic device 100 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is schematically shown.

[0041] like Figure 2B As shown, the second body 102 can be connected to the first body 101 through the rotation shaft 103, and the rotation shaft 103 can be located at the edge of the second body 102. By bending the second body 102 around the rotation shaft 103, the second body 102 is converted from a first relative external position to a second relative position relative to the first body 101. In some embodiments, the first window 1030 on the second body 102 can be located Figure 2B As shown on the surface 1032, the current Figure 2B As shown, the second body 102 is in a second relative position relative to the first body 101, and the acquisition device 1028 can acquire images through the first window 1030 on the surface 1032. In other embodiments, the first window 1030 on the second body 102 can be located at Figure 2BThe surface 1026 shown (i.e., the surface opposite to the first surface 1022 of the second body) is formed so that the current Figure 2B The position of the second body 102 relative to the first body 101 is between the first relative position and the second relative position. In this case, when the second body 102 reaches the second relative position relative to the first body 101, the second body 102 will cover a portion of the first surface 1012 of the first body.

[0042] In some embodiments, Figure 2B The first display screen 1014 and the second display screen 1024 in the electronic device 100 shown can form a complete flexible display screen. In this way, when the first body 101 and the second body 101 are in the first relative position, the first display screen 1014 and the second display screen 1024 can display images as a complete display screen without considering the problem of bridging the gap between the two display screens.

[0043] According to the embodiment of the present disclosure, if the second body 102 is in a first relative position relative to the first body 101, the second body 102 does not completely block the display area of ​​the first display screen 1014. Figure 1A shown.

[0044] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, if the second body 102 is in a first relative position relative to the first body 101, the first display screen 1014 and the second display screen 1024 are controlled to be spliced ​​for display. For example, a projector seamless splicing technology with edge fusion technology can be used to achieve the splicing display of the first display screen 1014 and the second display screen 1024.

[0045] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, if the first display screen 1014 and the second display screen 1024 are spliced ​​to display an image, the first display screen 1014 is controlled to display the first part of the image and the second display screen 1024 is controlled to display the second part of the image, so that the image is output completely and a seamless display effect is achieved.

[0046] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, if the second body 102 is in a first relative position relative to the first body 101 , the first edge on the first surface 1022 of the second body completely matches the first edge on the first surface 1012 of the first body.

[0047] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the first edge on the first surface 1022 of the second body and the first edge on the first surface 1012 of the first body are both made of a first material. The first material may be, for example, an OLED organic light emitting diode, or glass.

[0048] According to the embodiment of the present disclosure, the display area light closest to the first edge of the first surface 1012 of the first body is extended to the first edge of the first surface 1022 of the second body; and the display area light closest to the first edge of the first surface 1022 of the second body is extended to the first edge of the first surface 1012 of the first body. In this way, the visual perception of the gap between the first display screen 1014 and the second display screen 1024 can be significantly weakened to a certain extent, and even a completely seamless display effect can be achieved.

[0049] According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, the edge of the second display screen 1024 may partially protrude from the edge on the first surface 1022 of the second body. When the second body 102 is in a first relative position relative to the first body 101, the edge of the second display screen 1024 may be completely in contact with and matched with the edge of the first display screen 1014, and cover part of the gap between the second body 102 and the first body 101. In other embodiments, the edge of the second display screen 1024 may be a prism. When the second body 102 is in a first relative position relative to the first body 101, the gap between the second body 102 and the first body 101 may be refracted to form a covering effect through the refraction of the prism, so that the user visually feels that there is no gap in the splicing of the first display screen 1014 and the second display screen 1024.

[0050] According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, the position of the second display screen 1024 on the first surface 1022 of the second body can be moved. For example, when the second body 102 is in a first relative position relative to the first body 101, Figure 1A The second display screen 1024 can be moved downward to be close to the first display screen 1014 or even to be in contact with it. This can effectively reduce the gap between the second display screen 1024 and the first display screen 1014 when they are spliced ​​and displayed. At the same time, when the relative position of the second body 102 relative to the first body 101 needs to be changed to the second relative position, the second display screen 1024 can be moved away from the first display screen 1014, and then the second body 102 can be rotated relative to the first body 101.

[0051] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, if the second body 102 is in a second relative position relative to the first body 101 , the first display screen 1014 is controlled to be displayed alone and the second display screen 1024 is turned off.

[0052] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, if the second body 102 is in a second relative position relative to the first body 101, the face recognition device as the collection device 1028 is awakened. According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, if the face recognition device successfully recognizes the collected face, the first display screen 1014 is controlled to light up.

[0053] According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, the acquisition device 102g can also be used as a front camera for scenes such as selfies. In some embodiments, if the second body 102 is in a second relative position relative to the first body 101, the acquisition device 1028 can also be awakened for front shooting, meeting the image acquisition needs of users in scenes such as selfies.

[0054] According to the electronic device 100 of the embodiment of the present disclosure, the size of the display area for displaying images on the electronic device 100 can be flexibly changed by changing the relative positions of the first body 101 and the second body 102, and when the user needs the acquisition device 1028 to perform front-end image acquisition (for example, face recognition or selfie, etc.), the corresponding front-end image acquisition function can also be implemented, and it has a variety of flexible functions.

[0055] According to the electronic device 100 of the embodiment of the present disclosure, the contradiction between the high screen-to-body ratio and the front acquisition device (for example, a front camera, or a front face recognition device, etc.) occupying the front space of the electronic device 100 can be effectively resolved to a certain extent. For example, when the second body 102 is in a first relative position relative to the first body 101, the first display screen 1014 and the second display screen 1024 of the electronic device 100 are spliced ​​for display, so that the electronic device 100 has a display screen effect with a high screen-to-body ratio. When the user needs to use the front acquisition image, the second body 102 can be changed to be in a second relative position relative to the first body 101, and the acquisition device 1028 on the second body 102 can be used as a front acquisition device.

[0056] Figure 3 The flowchart of the method of controlling the electronic device 100 according to the embodiment of the present disclosure is schematically shown.

[0057] like Figure 3 As shown, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the method for controlling the electronic device 100 may include operations S301 to S306. It should be noted that, in different embodiments, the method for controlling the electronic device 100 may include a portion of operations S301 to S306, or, without conflict, the method for controlling the electronic device 100 may include any combination of any operations in operations S301 to S306.

[0058] In operation S301, when the second body 102 is at a first relative position relative to the first body 101, the first display screen 1014 and the second display screen 1024 are controlled to perform splicing display.

[0059] Then, in operation 302, in response to a first user operation or the start of a preset application, the second body 102 is controlled to be transformed from the first relative position to the second relative position relative to the first body 101. The first user operation may be, for example, a user manually rotating the first body 101 or the second body 102, or a user operating an operation icon on the electronic device 100. The preset application may be, for example, a face recognition unlocking application, or a front-facing camera APP.

[0060] In operation S303 , in response to the second body 102 reaching the second relative position relative to the first body 101 , the first display screen 1014 is controlled to be displayed alone and the second display screen 1024 is turned off.

[0061] In operation S304, in response to the second body 102 reaching the second relative position relative to the first body 101, the face recognition device 1028 serving as the collection device is awakened.

[0062] In operation S305 , in response to the face recognition device 1028 successfully recognizing the collected face, the first display screen 1014 is controlled to light up.

[0063] In operation S306, in response to a second user operation or closing of the preset application, the second body 102 is controlled to reset from the second relative position to the first relative position relative to the first body 101. The second user operation may be, for example, a user manually rotating the first body 101 or the second body 102 to convert the second body 102 relative to the first body 101 from the second relative position to the first relative position, or, for example, a user operating an operation icon with a reset function.

[0064] Figure 4 The block diagram schematically shows a computer system suitable for the electronic device 100 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 4 The block diagram of a computer system suitable for implementing the method described above according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is schematically shown.
