Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present disclosure relates to the field of displays, and particularly to a support frame for a foldable display screen and a foldable display screen. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of communication technologies, mobile terminals such as mobile phones are used more and more widely, and the requirements for display screens are also increasing. Although the increase in the display screen brings a better visual experience, there is a problem of inconvenient carrying.

[0003] On the other hand, in recent years, wearable intelligent terminals such as smart bracelets and watches have developed rapidly. However, due to problems such as a small screen and poor battery life, wearable intelligent terminals have few functions and limited usage ranges. Therefore, foldable intelligent terminals have emerged as the times require.

[0004] Current foldable intelligent terminals mainly achieve folding by using a rotating bearing to connect two side support structures, and the used support rotating shaft structure is a sheet solid structure. However, such a sheet structure can only achieve local folding of a small area, and cannot achieve an integrated design of rigid support and flexible deformation of the whole machine, and cannot be used on wearable devices.

[0005] Since the support rotating shaft structure occupies a large space, the available internal space of the foldable mobile terminal is correspondingly reduced, which limits the size of functional modules such as the display screen or the battery, and reduces the competitiveness of the product.

[0054] Here, the exemplary embodiments will be described in detail, and the examples are shown in the drawings. When the following description refers to the drawings, unless otherwise indicated, the same numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with the present disclosure. On the contrary, they are only examples of devices and methods consistent with some aspects of the present disclosure as detailed in the appended claims.

[0055] In the related art, the terminal can be implemented in various forms. For example, the terminal described in the present invention may include mobile terminals such as mobile phones, tablet computers, laptop computers, navigation devices, wearable devices, smart bracelets, pedometers, etc. The support skeleton of the foldable display screen involved in the embodiments of the present invention can be applied to various terminals with a foldable screen, including but not limited to mobile phones, smart bracelets, smart watches, etc. In the following description, mobile terminals such as mobile phones will be used as examples for illustration. Those skilled in the art understand that, except for elements specifically for mobile purposes, the structure according to the embodiments of the present invention can also be applied to fixed-type terminals.

[0056] Figure 1 It is a schematic diagram of the bent state of a support skeleton of a foldable display screen shown according to an exemplary embodiment. Figure 2 It is a schematic diagram of the straightened state of a support skeleton of a foldable display screen shown according to an exemplary embodiment.

[0057] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, a support skeleton of a foldable display screen includes: a fixing module 10, a bending module 20, and an end module 50. The bending module 20 includes a first bending module 30 and a second bending module 40. Among them, the first bending module 30 includes a plurality of interconnected first skeleton structures 31.

[0058] One side of the fixing module 10 is connected to one side of the first bending module 30 of the bending module 20. The other side of the first bending module 30 is connected to one side of the second bending module 40. The other side of the second bending module 40 is connected to the end module 50.

[0059] The other side of the fixing module 10 is connected to one side of another second bending module 40. The other side of this second bending module 40 is connected to the other end module 50.

[0060] Gaps are provided between the plurality of first skeleton structures 31, thereby achieving the mutual conversion between the bent state and the straightened state of the support skeleton of the foldable display screen. Among them, in order to achieve different bending degrees and states, the gaps between the plurality of first skeleton structures 31 can be set to be different or the same.

[0061] Limit components are provided on both the end module 50 and the fixing module 10. The limit components are used to lock the bent state during the bending process of the bending module 20, which is not only beneficial to achieving the bending purpose, but also can prevent the bending from exceeding the limit and causing damage to the structure.

[0062] In the present invention, the combination of rigid support and flexible deformation is achieved by connecting the fixing module 10 and the bending module 20. It can not only achieve the purpose of being bendable, but also maintain a certain rigidity by using the fixing module, and can be used to stably maintain the bent and straight states of the mobile terminal. In addition, in the prior art, the battery in the mobile terminal needs to be firmly installed to maintain the good operation of the mobile terminal. Therefore, the fixing module is also beneficial to the fixation of some components such as the battery.

[0063] Figure 3 is an exploded schematic view of the specific structure of a support frame of a bendable display screen shown according to an exemplary embodiment. As Figure 3 shown, the fixing module 10 is provided with a first connection surface 11 and a second connection surface 12 oppositely along the length direction of the support frame of the bendable display screen. Among them, the first connection surface 11 is connected to the second bending module 40, and the second connection surface 12 is connected to the first bending module 30.

[0064] It should be noted that in this embodiment, only one side of the fixing module is connected to the first bending module, and the other side is connected to the second bending module, realizing a relatively large bend on one side of the fixing module and a relatively small bend on the other side. However, in some embodiments, both sides of the fixing module can also be connected to the first bending module, so that a relatively large bend can be realized on both sides of the fixing module. In another embodiment, the first bending module is connected to one side of the fixing module, and the other side is directly connected to the end module, thereby realizing the bending of one side of the display screen.

[0065] Referring to Figure 3 , the first connection surface 11 is provided with a first connection portion 110, and the first connection portion 110 is symmetrically and perpendicularly arranged at both ends of the first connection surface 11. The first connection portion 110 is provided with a first protrusion 101 and a second protrusion 102, and the first protrusion 101 is located above the second protrusion 102. The first protrusion 101 and the second protrusion 102 both extend towards the second bending module 40 and are connected to the second bending module 40. The first protrusion 101 and the second protrusion 102 are perpendicular to the first connection surface 11. A limiting component is provided on the second protrusion 102. The second protrusion 102 is connected to the outer surface of the second bending module 40. Therefore, the second protrusion 102 protrudes outward by a distance, and this distance is greater than the thickness of the second bending module 40, and it is preferably just able to accommodate the second bending module 40.

[0066] The second connection surface 12 is provided with a second connection portion 120, and the second connection portions 120 are symmetrically and perpendicularly arranged at both ends of the second connection surface 12. A third protrusion 103 and a fourth protrusion 104 are provided on the second connection portion 120, and the third protrusion 103 is located above the fourth protrusion 104. Both the third protrusion 103 and the fourth protrusion 104 extend towards the first bending module 30 and are connected to the first bending module 30. The third protrusion 103 and the fourth protrusion 104 are perpendicular to the second connection surface 12. A limiting component is provided on the fourth protrusion 104. The fourth protrusion 104 is connected to the outer surface of the first bending module 30, so the fourth protrusion 104 protrudes outwards by a distance, and this distance is greater than the thickness of the first bending module 30, and it is preferably just able to accommodate the first bending module 30.

[0067] It should be noted that multiple first connection portions can be provided on the first connection surface as needed, and the positions of the multiple first connection portions are not limited to both ends of the first connection portion. They can be located at any position on the first connection surface as long as the corresponding purpose can be achieved. The support skeleton of the foldable display screen exemplified in this embodiment is applied to a wearable mobile terminal. Therefore, in order to minimize the volume of the wearable mobile terminal as much as possible, the first protrusion and the second protrusion are arranged perpendicular to the first connection surface. In the actual application process, the angles between the first protrusion and the second protrusion and the first connection surface can be set according to different specific application scenarios.

[0068] A limiting component is provided on the second protrusion 102, which is used to lock the bending state of the bending module 20 during the bending process and can play a certain connection role to maintain the stability of the structure. The second protrusion 102 is arranged to be connected to the outer surface of the second bending module 20. The second protrusion 102 protrudes outwards by a certain distance from the connection with the first connection surface 11, and the protruding distance is greater than the thickness of the second bending module 40. It is preferably set to just be able to accommodate the second bending module 40, so as to ensure that the fixing module 10 and the second bending module 40 are both connected to each other and maintain a certain degree of mobility. In some embodiments, the second protrusion can also be arranged to be connected to the inner surface of the second bending module.

[0069] Figure 4 It is a schematic structural diagram of a first bending module of a support skeleton of a foldable display screen shown according to an exemplary embodiment. As Figure 4 shown, the first bending module 30 includes a plurality of first skeleton structures 31, and the first skeleton structure 31 includes a first top plate 34 and a first bottom plate 35. The first top plate 34 is located above the first bottom plate 35. The first top plate 34 is provided with a first vertical plate 341 and a second vertical plate 342 oppositely arranged in the width direction of the support skeleton of the foldable display screen. The first vertical plate 341 and the second vertical plate 342 are perpendicular to the first top plate 34.

[0070] The first top plate 34 is provided with a first connection end 343 and a second connection end 344 opposite to each other along the length direction of the bendable display support skeleton; the first connection end 343 and the second connection end 344 of two adjacent first top plates 34 are connected to each other. The first connection end 343 and the second connection end 344 are set to protrude from the first top plate 34 and extend along the length direction of the bendable display support skeleton.

[0071] Figure 5 It is a schematic diagram of the first skeleton structure of a support skeleton of a bendable display shown according to an exemplary embodiment. As Figure 5 shown, the first connection end 343 is set to be two, respectively located on both sides of the first vertical plate 341 and the second vertical plate 342, and are correspondingly arranged in the same way. The first connection end 343 and the second connection end 344 are set to protrude from the first top plate 34 and extend along the length direction of the bendable display support skeleton. Such a setting will not cause an increase in the thickness of the bendable display support skeleton, can meet the thin and portable functions of the mobile terminal, and moreover, can ensure stable connection while there is a gap between multiple first skeletons.

[0072] Continue to refer to Figure 5 , a first hole 61 is provided on the first connection end 343, a second hole 62 is provided on the second connection end 344, the first connection end 343 and the second connection end 344 of two adjacent first top plates 34 are overlapped, so that the first hole 61 and the second hole 62 are overlapped, and a pin is passed through the mutually overlapped first hole 61 and second hole 62 to achieve the connection function. In order to achieve the overlapping function, there may be a connection method in which the first connection end 343 is arranged on the outer surface of the second connection end 344, or there may be a connection method in which the second connection end 344 is arranged on the outer surface of the first connection end 343. In this embodiment, the connection method in which the first connection end 343 is arranged on the outer surface of the second connection end 344 is selected. Therefore, the first connection end 343 protrudes outward by a certain distance, and this distance is greater than the thickness of the second connection end 344, and it is preferred that the second connection end 344 can be just accommodated and can move.

[0073] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, since the connection method through the pin, the first hole and the second hole occupies a relatively small internal space and has a certain degree of mobility, it meets the technical characteristic requirements for the layout of various electronic devices in the wearable mobile terminal. However, in other possible embodiments, the first connection end and the second connection end can also be connected by other movable connection methods such as a rotating shaft, as long as the corresponding purpose can be achieved.

[0074] Continue to refer to Figure 5, a first bottom plate 35 is provided with a first vertical plate 351 and a second vertical plate 352 oppositely along the width direction of the bendable display support frame; the first vertical plate 351 is provided with a first protrusion 353 along the length direction of the bendable display support frame, and the first protrusion 353 connects two adjacent first vertical plates 351; the second vertical plate 352 is provided with a second protrusion 354 along the length direction of the bendable display support frame, and the second protrusion 354 connects two adjacent second vertical plates 352.

[0075] As Figure 4 shown, the first protrusion 353 is connected to the outer surface of the adjacent first vertical plate 351. The first protrusion 353 needs to protrude outward for a distance greater than the thickness of the first vertical plate 351. It is preferred that this distance is just enough to accommodate the first vertical plate 351. Such a setting can satisfy both the connectivity and mobility between the first vertical plates 351. Correspondingly, the second protrusion 354 is connected to the outer surface of the adjacent second vertical plate 352. The second protrusion 354 needs to protrude outward for a distance greater than the thickness of the second vertical plate 352. It is preferred that this distance is just enough to accommodate the second vertical plate 352. Limiting components are provided on both the first protrusion 353 and the second protrusion 354.

[0076] As Figure 5 shown, two third holes 63 are respectively provided on both sides of the first connection end 343, and two fourth holes 64 are respectively provided on both sides of the second connection end 344. Two fifth holes 65 are respectively provided on both sides of the first vertical plate 351, and two sixth holes 66 are respectively provided on both sides of the second vertical plate 352. The two third holes 63 respectively overlap with the two fifth holes 65, and the two fourth holes 64 respectively overlap with the two sixth holes 66, and they are all connected by pins. In other possible implementation schemes, they can also be connected by other connection methods.

[0077] The first bending module 30 is further provided with a shielding component for space compensation when the first bending module 30 bends. Since the support frame of the bendable display has two states of bending and straightening, the surface of the first bending module 30 has a reduction or stretching during the bending or straightening process. Setting the shielding component can play a role in space compensation during the above process.

[0078] In the present invention, according to the bending characteristics of the support frame of the foldable display screen, the shielding component can be arranged at different positions. For example, if the support frame of the foldable display screen is a tensile type, the shielding component can be arranged on the outer surface of the support frame of the foldable display screen to shield the space exposed on the outer surface during the bending process, so that the inner surface size of the support frame of the foldable display screen remains unchanged, and the outer surface can be increased within a certain range; if the support frame of the foldable display screen is a compressive bending component, the shielding component can be arranged on the inner surface of the support frame of the foldable display screen to shield the space exposed on the inner surface during the straightening process, so that the outer surface size of the support frame of the foldable display screen remains unchanged, and the inner surface can be reduced within a certain range.

[0079] As Figure 4 and Figure 5 shown, a shielding component is arranged on the first bottom plate 35. The shielding component exemplified in this embodiment is composed of a shielding sheet 71 and a guide pin 72, and both the shielding sheet 71 and the guide pin 72 are arranged on the inner surface of the first bottom plate 35. A long hole 73 is arranged on the shielding sheet 71. The shielding sheet 71 is arranged on one side of the first bottom plate 35, and the guide pin 72 is arranged on the other side of the first bottom plate 35. The guide pins 72 of two adjacent first bottom plates 35 are connected through the long hole 73 on the shielding sheet 71.

[0080] As Figure 4 shown, in this embodiment, there is a gap between two adjacent first bottom plates 35. The shielding sheet 71 can be arranged as a single one or multiple ones, and its main purpose is to block the gap between two adjacent first bottom plates. Therefore, the width of the shielding sheet 71 is greater than the gap between the first bottom plates 35.

[0081] Two shielding sheets 71 are arranged on each first bottom plate 35, and two long holes 73 are arranged on each shielding sheet 71. The width of the long hole 73 is just enough to accommodate the sliding of the guide pin 72. The number of the long holes 73 is equal to and corresponds one by one to the number of the guide pins 72. Therefore, four guide pins 72 are arranged on each first bottom plate 35 in this embodiment. In other possible embodiments, the numbers of the shielding sheet, the long hole and the guide pin can all be set as needed.

[0082] The shielding piece 71 and the guide pin 72 on two adjacent first bottom plates 35 are connected. The shielding piece 71 is arranged such that a part thereof overlaps with the fixed first bottom plate 35 and is fixed to the first bottom plate 35 through three first fixing points 74. The guide pin 72 is fixed to the first bottom plate 35 through the fixing point 75 and is arranged to be slidable in the long hole on the shielding piece 71. The long hole is arranged such that a part thereof overlaps with the fixed first bottom plate 35. If the guide pin 72 is located at one end of the long hole that overlaps with the first bottom plate 35, the shielding piece 71 is located inside the first frame structure 31, and the support frame of the foldable display screen is in a bent state (as Figure 1 shown). If the guide pin 72 is slid from one end overlapping with the first bottom plate 35 to the other end in the long hole, the shielding piece 71 is located on the surface of the first frame structure 31, and the support frame of the foldable display screen is in a straight state (as Figure 2 shown).

[0083] It should be noted that other structures capable of playing a role in space compensation can also be selected for the shielding component, as long as the purpose can be achieved. The method adopted in the present invention of arranging the shielding piece and the guide pin on the inner surface of the first bottom plate compensates for the existing gap when the folding module is in a straight state and can be completely hidden inside the first bottom plate when the folding module is folded to the maximum angle, so that while playing a shielding role, it does not affect the folding angle of the support frame of the foldable display screen.

[0084] As Figure 3 shown, the second folding module 40 includes a plurality of second frame structures 41. The second frame structure 41 includes a second top plate 411 and a second bottom plate 412. The second top plate 411 is located above the second bottom plate 412 and is connected to the second bottom plate 412. The second folding module 40 is mainly used to connect the end module 50. One side of the second folding module 40 is connected to the end module 50, and the other side can be connected to the first folding module 30 or the fixed module 10. Considering the consistency of the structure and the convenience of connection, in this embodiment, the shapes and sizes of the second frame structure 41 and the first frame structure 31 are the same. The shape and size of the second top plate 411 are the same as those of the first top plate 34, and the shape and size of the second bottom plate 412 are also the same as those of the first bottom plate 35. The connection method between the second top plate 411 and the first top plate 34 is the same as the connection method between two adjacent first top plates 34.

[0085] As Figure 3As shown, the end modules 50 in this embodiment are located at both ends of the bendable display support framework and are symmetrically arranged. In some embodiments, there may also be a case where the end module is provided only at one end. The end module 50 is mainly used to enclose the ends of the support framework of the bendable display, maintain the integrity of the structure, and protect the internal electronic devices. Therefore, the third connection surface 51 is provided only once at the connection between the end module 50 and the second bending module 40. The third connection surface 51 includes a fifth protrusion 511 and a sixth protrusion 512. The fifth protrusion 511 is connected to the inner surface of the second bending module 40. Therefore, the fifth protrusion 511 protrudes inward by a distance greater than the thickness of the second bending module 40, and it is preferred that this distance is just enough to accommodate the second bending module 40.

[0086] In addition, the end module 50 is further provided with a limiting component, and the limiting component is arranged on the fifth protrusion 511 and the sixth protrusion 512.

[0087] Based on the above technical features, the limiting component provided can be a damping generator. The setting of the limiting component is to enable the support framework of the foldable display to achieve stepless adjustment during the bending and straightening processes, that is, it can be self-locked at any angle within the allowable range, and it can also increase the feel of the user's operation during the bending or straightening process, improving the user experience.

[0088] In the present invention, when the support framework of the bendable display is used for a mobile terminal, a plurality of electronic devices also need to be installed. To meet the technical characteristic requirements for the installation and placement of the electronic devices, optionally, openings of various shapes and sizes can be provided or not provided on the surfaces of the first top plate and the first bottom plate, as well as the second top plate and the second bottom plate.

[0089] In the present invention, the support framework of the bendable display can be maintained in different bending states, which is conducive to achieving various usage purposes of the mobile terminal and improving the competitiveness of the mobile terminal. At the same time, when the support framework of the bendable display is used for a mobile terminal, it is often necessary to be connected to the display. During the bending process of the support framework of the bendable display, the distance between the formed rotation arc surface and the support surface of the display can be adjusted, which is convenient for specifically optimizing and adjusting the support framework of the bendable display according to different display thicknesses to release the shear stress generated during the bending process.

[0090] The present invention also provides a bendable display screen, which includes a flexible display screen and the support frame of the bendable display screen in the above technical solution. The flexible display screen is located above the support frame of the bendable display screen and is fixedly connected to the support frame of the bendable display screen. The flexible display screen is set such that at least the part connected to the bending module is a bendable flexible display screen. Among them, the flexible display screen is a display screen that can achieve the bending purpose. At least the part connected to the bending module can be bent, and it is not limited whether other parts can be bent, as long as the overall screen can achieve the purpose of being bendable.

[0091] Those skilled in the art will readily conceive of other embodiments of the present disclosure after considering the specification and practicing the invention disclosed herein. This application is intended to cover any variations, uses, or adaptations of the present disclosure, which follow the general principles of the present disclosure and include known common knowledge or conventional technical means in the technical field not disclosed in the present disclosure. The specification and examples are only regarded as exemplary, and the true scope and spirit of the present disclosure are pointed out by the following claims.
