[0019] Combine the following Figure 1-Figure 6 , describing the electronic device of an embodiment of the present application.
[0020] like Figure 1 As shown, the present application provides an electronic device, comprising: a first housing 101, a second housing 102, a hinge 200 and a locking mechanism.

The locking mechanism is connected with the hinge 200, and the locking mechanism includes: a connecting rod assembly 300, a locking assembly 400 and a driving assembly 500. The first end of the connecting rod assembly 300 is connected to the hinge 200, and the second end of the connecting rod assembly 300 is inserted into the first housing 101 and movably connected to the first housing 101. That is, when the first housing 101 rotates relative to the second housing 102, the second end of the connecting rod assembly 300 can slide in the first housing 101 to achieve folding of the first housing 101 and the second housing 102 at a certain angle.
[0021] The locking assembly 400 is arranged on the first shell 101, and the locking assembly 400 is opposite to the second end of the connecting rod assembly 300. The driving assembly 500 is connected to the locking assembly 400. Under the drive of the driving assembly 500, the locking assembly 400 is in a first state.

[0022] Specifically, a flexible screen is arranged outside the first shell 101 and the second shell 102. When the hinge 200 rotates, the first shell 101 can be folded at an angle with the second shell 102 to form a folding display screen. After the first shell 101 rotates relative to the second shell 102 to the angle desired by the user, the driving component 500 drives the locking component 400 to be in the first state, and the locking component 400 locks the flexible screen at the current folding angle, and the hinge 200 cannot rotate.
[0023] In some optional embodiments of the present application, the drive assembly 500 is connected to the locking assembly 400, and the drive assembly 500 can be a combination of an electromagnet winding and a magnet, the magnet is arranged on the locking assembly 400, the electromagnet winding is arranged on the first housing 101, the electromagnet winding and the magnet are arranged relative to each other, and after the electromagnet winding is energized, a magnetic repulsion force is generated between the electromagnet winding and the magnet, driving the locking assembly 400 to abut against the second end of the connecting rod assembly 300. The drive assembly 500 can also be a hydraulic drive system, the piston rod of the hydraulic cylinder is connected to the locking assembly 400, and the extension of the piston rod is used to drive the locking assembly 400 to abut against the second end of the connecting rod assembly 300. Of course, the drive assembly 500 can also be a cylinder, etc.
[0024] Furthermore, after the first housing 101 is rotated to a suitable angle, automatic locking can be achieved by triggering the driving assembly 500 , and the triggering of the driving assembly 500 can be achieved manually or automatically through the controller.
[0025] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, the electronic device may be a mobile phone, a tablet or a display screen, etc.
[0026] The electronic device of the present application, by providing a driving assembly, can lock the first shell at the current folding angle after the first shell is rotated, thereby enhancing the stability of the electronic device after folding, making it less likely to shake, and improving user satisfaction.
[0027] like Figure 3 As shown, in an embodiment of the present application, the driving component 500 includes a first magnetic component 511 and a second magnetic component 512, the first magnetic component 511 is arranged on the locking component 400, the first magnetic component 511 and the second magnetic component 512 are arranged opposite to each other, and the second magnetic component 512 is arranged on the first shell 101 or the locking component 400, wherein the second magnetic component 512 is configured to generate a magnetic repulsion force on the first magnetic component 511, so as to drive the locking component 400 to be in the first state based on the magnetic repulsion force between the first magnetic component 511 and the second magnetic component 512.
[0028] Specifically, in this embodiment, the first magnetic member 511 may be a magnet, and the second magnetic member may be an electromagnet winding. When the electromagnet winding is energized, a magnetic repulsion force is generated between the second magnetic member 512 and the first magnetic member 511. Optionally, the first magnetic member 511 may be disposed on the locking assembly 400, and the second magnetic member 512 may be disposed on the first housing 101. When a magnetic repulsion force is generated between the first magnetic member 511 and the second magnetic member 512, the first magnetic member 511 pushes the locking assembly 400 to move toward the second end of the connecting rod assembly 300, so that the locking assembly 400 abuts against the second end of the connecting rod assembly 300. Optionally, the first magnetic component 511 and the second magnetic component 512 can also be both arranged on the locking assembly 400, such as being respectively arranged on two components of the locking assembly 400, one of the two components is fixed and the other is movable, so as to utilize the magnetic repulsion between the first magnetic component 511 and the second magnetic component 512 to enable the movable component to drive the locking assembly 400 to move toward the direction close to the second end of the connecting rod assembly 300, and finally make the locking assembly 400 abut against the second end of the connecting rod assembly 300.
[0029] The electronic device of the present application, by providing a first magnetic part and a second magnetic part, can utilize magnetic repulsion to drive the locking assembly to move in a direction close to the second end of the connecting rod assembly, and make the locking assembly abut against the second end of the connecting rod assembly, thereby achieving automatic locking of the first shell and the second shell after folding to a suitable angle, thereby improving the convenience of operation.
[0030] like Figure 2 As shown, the locking assembly 400 includes a bracket 410, a slider 420 and a locking member 430. The bracket 410 is connected to the first housing 101, the second magnetic member 512 is arranged on the bracket 410, the bracket 410 is provided with a first slide groove 411 and a second slide groove 412, the first slide groove 411 passes through the upper surface of the bracket 410, the first slide groove 411 is connected to the second slide groove 412, and the second slide groove 412 passes through the length direction of the bracket 410. The slider 420 is arranged in the first slide groove 411, and the second end of the connecting rod assembly 300 is inserted into the second slide groove 412. Part of the locking member 430 is arranged in the first slide groove 411, the locking member 430 slides in cooperation with the slider 420, and the first magnetic member 511 is arranged in the locking member 430.
[0031] Under the action of the first magnetic member 511 and the second magnetic member 512, the locking member 430 slides in the first slot 411 along the length direction of the first slot 411, so that the slider 420 is in the first position. When the slider 420 is in the first position, the slider 420 abuts against the second end of the connecting rod assembly 300.
[0032] Specifically, when the second magnetic member 512 generates a magnetic repulsion force relative to the first magnetic member 511, the magnetic repulsion force can drive the locking member 430 to move in the first slide groove 411 along the first direction. During the movement of the locking member 430 in the first direction, the slider 420 can move in the first slide groove 411 along a direction perpendicular to the second end of the connecting rod assembly 300. The locking member 430 squeezes the slider 420 to move in a direction close to the second end of the connecting rod assembly 300, and the slider 420 abuts against the second end of the connecting rod assembly 300. At this time, the slider 420 is in the first position. The second end of the connecting rod assembly 300 cannot move, and the first shell 101 and the second shell 102 are locked at the current folding angle.
[0033] Optionally, in another embodiment of the present application, the locking assembly 400 includes: a bracket 410 and a locking member 430. The bracket 410 is connected to the first housing 101, and the bracket 410 is provided with a first slide groove 411 and a second slide groove 412 that are connected, and the second end of the connecting rod assembly 300 is inserted into the second slide groove 412. Part of the locking member 430 is arranged in the first slide groove 411. Under the action of the first magnetic member 511 and the second magnetic member 512, the locking member 430 can move along the height direction of the first slide groove 411, so that the locking member 430 is in the first position. When the locking member 430 is in the first position, the locking member 430 abuts against the second end of the connecting rod assembly 300.
[0034] Specifically, in this embodiment, the first magnetic member 511 is arranged on the locking member 430, and the second magnetic member 512 is arranged on the first shell 101. When a magnetic repulsion force is generated between the second magnetic member 512 and the first magnetic member 511, the magnetic repulsion force pushes the locking member 430 to move toward the direction close to the second end of the connecting rod assembly 300, so that the locking member 430 is in the first position. At this time, the locking member 430 abuts against the second end of the connecting rod assembly 300, the second end of the connecting rod assembly 300 cannot move, and the first shell 101 and the second shell 102 are locked at the current folding angle.
[0035] In one embodiment of the present application, when the second magnetic member 512 is configured to generate magnetic attraction to the first magnetic member 511, the locking assembly 400 also has a second state. In the second state, the slider 420 is in the second position, and the slider 420 is separated from the second end of the connecting rod assembly 300.
[0036] Specifically, when the direction of the current is different, magnetic attraction can also be generated between the second magnetic member 512 and the first magnetic member 511. At this time, the locking member 430 moves in the first slide groove 411 in the opposite direction of the first direction under the drive of the magnetic attraction. During the movement of the locking member 430 in the opposite direction of the first direction, the squeezing force of the locking member 430 on the slider 420 gradually decreases, and the slider 420 is reset and moves in the direction away from the second end of the connecting rod assembly 300. The slider 420 is separated from the second end of the connecting rod assembly 300, and the slider 420 is in the second position. The connecting rod assembly 300 can move relative to the first housing 101, and the first housing 101 can rotate relative to the second housing 102.
[0037] Further, the slider 420 has a first surface and a second surface opposite to each other, wherein the first surface can abut against the connecting rod assembly 300, and the second surface is configured with a first guide surface 421, and the first guide surface 421 is inclined relative to the connecting rod assembly 300. Specifically, the first surface of the slider 420 is an arc surface 423, which is adapted to the surface of the second end of the connecting rod assembly 300, so as to abut against the second end of the connecting rod assembly 300 when the slider 420 is in the first position. The second surface of the slider 420 is a first inclined surface, which can slide in cooperation with the locking member 430.
[0038] like Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment of the present application, the driving assembly 500 further includes a third magnetic member 513 and a fourth magnetic member 514. The third magnetic member 513 and the fourth magnetic member 514 are arranged opposite to each other, the third magnetic member 513 is arranged on the locking member 430, and the fourth magnetic member 514 is arranged on the bracket 410. When the second magnetic member 512 generates a magnetic repulsion force on the first magnetic member 511, the locking assembly 400 is in the first state, and when the fourth magnetic member 514 generates a magnetic repulsion force on the third magnetic member 513, the locking assembly 400 is in the second state.
[0039] Specifically, when the second magnetic member 512 generates a magnetic repulsion force on the first magnetic member 511, the magnetic repulsion force drives the locking member 430 to slide in the first direction, and the locking member 430 squeezes the slider 420 to move in the direction close to the second end of the connecting rod assembly 300, and the slider 420 abuts against the second end of the connecting rod assembly 300, and the first housing 101 and the second housing 102 are locked at the current folding angle. When the fourth magnetic member 514 generates a magnetic repulsion force on the third magnetic member 513, the magnetic repulsion force drives the locking member 430 to slide in the opposite direction of the first direction, and the locking member 430 releases the squeezing force on the slider 420, and the slider 420 is reset, and the slider 420 is separated from the second end of the connecting rod assembly 300, and the first housing 101 and the second housing 102 are unlocked, and the first housing 101 can rotate freely relative to the second housing 102.
[0040] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, the third magnetic member 513 may be a magnet, and the fourth magnetic member 514 may be an electromagnet winding.
[0041] Furthermore, if Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the locking member 430 is provided with a second guide surface 4331 which slides in cooperation with the first guide surface 421. Specifically, the locking member 430 is provided with a locking block 431, which is located in the first slide groove 411 on the bracket 410, and the surface of the locking block 431 is provided with a second guide surface 4331. In this embodiment, the second guide surface 4331 is a second inclined surface, which can slide in cooperation with the first inclined surface. When the locking block 431 slides along the first direction, the second guide surface 4331 of the locking block 431 presses the first guide surface 421 of the slider 420, and the slider 420 moves in a direction close to the second end of the connecting rod assembly 300. When the first surface of the slider 420 abuts against the second end of the connecting rod assembly 300, the slider 420 is in the first position, and the first shell 101 and the second shell 102 are locked at the current folding angle.
[0042] When the locking block 431 slides in the opposite direction of the first direction, the extrusion force between the second guide surface 4331 and the first guide surface 421 gradually decreases, and the slider 420 moves in the direction away from the second end of the connecting rod assembly 300. When the slider 420 is separated from the second end of the connecting rod assembly 300, the slider 420 is in the second position, and the first shell 101 and the second shell 102 can rotate relative to each other.
[0043] Furthermore, the locking assembly 400 further includes an elastic member 422, and the bracket 410 is further provided with a second groove (not shown in the figure) arranged along the sliding direction of the slider 420. The elastic member 422 is arranged in the second groove, one end of the elastic member 422 abuts against the groove bottom of the second groove, and the other end of the elastic member 422 abuts against the slider 420. Specifically, when the locking block 431 squeezes the slider 420, the elastic member 422 is compressed and contracted; when the squeezing force between the locking block 431 and the slider 420 gradually decreases, the elastic member 422 uses its own elastic force to push the slider 420 to the second position. Optionally, in this embodiment, the elastic member 422 is a spring.
[0044] Furthermore, the bracket 410 is further provided with a first groove 413, and the first groove 413 has a first groove wall 4131 and a second groove wall 4132 opposite to each other. The locking member 430 is further provided with a boss 432, and the boss 432 is located in the first groove 413, and the boss 432 can slide relative to the first groove 413. Among them, the first magnetic member 511 and the third magnetic member 513 are arranged on opposite sides of the boss 432, the second magnetic member 512 is arranged on the second groove wall 4132, and the first magnetic member 511 is arranged on the first groove wall 4131.
[0045] Specifically, in this embodiment, when the second magnetic member 512 generates a magnetic repulsion force relative to the first magnetic member 511, the magnetic repulsion force drives the locking member 430 to move in the first direction, and the locking member 430 squeezes the slider 420, so that the first shell 101 and the second shell 102 are locked at the current folding angle; when the fourth magnetic member 514 generates a magnetic repulsion force relative to the third magnetic member 513, the magnetic repulsion force drives the locking member 430 to move in the opposite direction of the first direction, and the locking member 430 releases the squeeze on the slider 420, and the first shell 101 and the second shell 102 are unlocked.
[0046] In an embodiment of the present application, the electronic device further includes a sensor, which generates a control signal of the driving component 500 based on the relative position relationship between the first shell 101 and the second shell 102 .
[0047] Specifically, if the first shell 101 and the second shell 102 need to be locked at 30°, the sensor is used to detect the folding angle between the first shell 101 and the second shell 102 when the first shell 101 rotates relative to the second shell 102. When the folding angle is equal to 30°, the sensor sends a control signal, and the drive assembly 500 starts to operate to lock the first shell 101 and the second shell 102 at the folding angle. Optionally, the sensor can be an angle sensor for detecting the angle between the first shell 101 and the horizontal plane.
[0048] Furthermore, if Figure 4 As shown, in one embodiment of the present application, the sensor includes a magnet 601 and a Hall sensor 602, the magnet 601 is arranged at the second end of the connecting rod assembly 300, the Hall sensor 602 is arranged opposite to the magnet 601, and the Hall sensor 602 is arranged in the first shell 101, and is used to detect the distance between the first shell 101 and the second end of the connecting rod assembly 300. When the second end of the connecting rod assembly 300 moves relative to the first shell 101, the magnet 601 can approach or move away from the Hall sensor 602.
[0049] In an embodiment of the present application, the electronic device further includes a controller, which is connected to the Hall sensor 602 and the driving component 500 . The controller can control the driving component 500 to perform corresponding actions according to the detection result of the Hall sensor 602 .
[0050] Specifically, when the first shell 101 rotates relative to the second shell 102, the distance between the Hall sensor 602 and the magnet 601 gradually decreases. The Hall sensor 602 detects the distance between the first shell 101 and the second end of the connecting rod assembly 300, and sends the real-time detection data to the controller. The controller converts the detection data into a folding angle between the first shell 101 and the second shell 102. When the real-time folding angle reaches a preset folding angle, the controller controls the drive assembly 500 to operate and lock the first shell 101 and the second shell 102.
[0051] In actual use, the user can input the folding angle on the virtual interface of the electronic device during the process of rotating the first shell 101. During the rotation of the first shell 101, the Hall sensor 602 detects data in real time. When the current folding angle between the first shell 101 and the second shell 102 reaches the preset folding angle, the controller controls the drive component 500 to operate and lock the first shell 101 and the second shell 102 at the preset folding angle.
[0052] like Figure 6 As shown, the user can also directly input a locking command on the electronic device, and then set a preset folding angle on the virtual interface of the electronic device, or use voice input to preset the folding angle. The user starts to rotate the first shell 101. During the rotation of the first shell 101, the Hall sensor 602 detects data in real time. When the current folding angle between the first shell 101 and the second shell 102 reaches the preset folding angle, the controller controls the drive component 500 to operate, and locks the first shell 101 and the second shell 102 at the preset folding angle.
[0053] The electronic device of the present application, by providing a magnet, a Hall sensor and a controller, can detect the folding angle between the first shell and the second shell in real time, and can realize automatic locking of the electronic device at any angle during the unfolding, closing and opening and closing processes. The folding angle can be set according to human needs, thereby improving the stability of the electronic device and the user experience effect.
[0054] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the locking assembly 400 further includes a first support column 451, a second support column 452 and an elastic strip 453. The first support column 451 and the second support column 452 are arranged opposite to each other and abut against the bottom of the first groove 413 of the bracket 410. The first support column 451, the second support column 452 and the boss 432 of the locking member 430 form a triangular structure. The elastic strip 453 is wound around the first support column 451, the second support column 452 and the boss 432 to improve the stability of the locking member 430 and prevent the locking block 431 from shaking in the first slide groove 411. Optionally, in this embodiment, the elastic strip 453 is a spring strip.
[0055] Furthermore, the locking assembly 400 also includes a button cover 440. A mounting groove 103 is opened on the first shell 101. The locking member 430 and part of the bracket 410 of the locking assembly 400 are arranged in the mounting groove 103. The button cover 440 is covered on the mounting groove 103 to cover the locking assembly 400 except for the part connected to the connecting rod assembly 300.
[0056] like Figure 5 As shown, in the embodiment of the present application, the connecting rod assembly 300 includes: a first connecting rod 301, a rotating shaft 302 and a second connecting rod 303. The first end of the first connecting rod 301 is rotatably connected to the hinge 200, the second end of the first connecting rod 301 is rotatably connected to the first end of the second connecting rod 303 through the rotating shaft 302, and the second end of the second connecting rod 303 is inserted into the second sliding groove 412 of the bracket 410. When the slider 420 is in the first position, the slider 420 abuts against the second connecting rod 303, and the second connecting rod 303 cannot move. When the slider 420 is in the second position, the second connecting rod 303 can slide along the second sliding groove 412. Further, the magnet 601 is arranged at the second end of the second connecting rod 303.
