This design simplifies the operation process, reduces the user's operation steps, and improves ease of use.

[0028] In some optional embodiments, the first locking member is a magnet, and the first elastic member is a compression spring;

[0029] The locking assembly also includes a coil, which is disposed on the device body and connected to the first locking member. When the coil is energized, the coil provides a thrust to the first locking member so that the first locking member moves from the first position to the second position.

[0030] When the coil is in a power-off state, the first elastic member provides a driving force for the first locking member to move the first locking member from the second position to the first position.

[0031] It should be noted that the position of the first locking member is controlled by the power-on and power-off states of the coil to achieve electrically controlled locking and unlocking. When powered on, the coil generates electromagnetic force to push the first locking member to the second position to achieve unlocking; when powered off, the compression spring provides a driving force to reset the first locking member to the first position to achieve locking. This electronic control method makes locking and unlocking operations more convenient and intelligent.

[0032] In some optional embodiments, the rotating assembly further includes a second elastic member, and opposite ends of the second elastic member are respectively abutted against the device body and the display screen;

[0033] When the first locking member is located at the second position, the second locking member is disengaged from the lock of the first locking member, and the second elastic member provides elastic force for the display screen to put the display screen into the second state.

[0034] It should be noted that after the lock is released, the elastic force provided by the second elastic member causes the display screen to automatically switch to the second state, thereby realizing an automatic reset function and simplifying user operations.

[0095] Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the structure of a laptop computer in an open state from a first perspective provided by an embodiment of the present application, Figure 2 A schematic diagram of the structure of a laptop computer in an open state from a second viewing angle provided by an embodiment of the present application, Figure 3 A cross-sectional view of a locking assembly of a laptop computer in a closed state provided in an embodiment of the present application.

[0096] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the embodiment of the present application provides a laptop computer 100, including:

[0097] Device body 110 and display screen 120;

[0098] Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the assembly between the rotating assembly and the locking assembly of the notebook computer provided by the embodiment of the present application in the open state, Figure 5 for Figure 4 The local enlarged view of point I in the middle, Figure 6 for Figure 4 A partial enlarged view of II in the middle. Figure 7 A schematic diagram of the structure of a laptop computer in an open state from a third viewing angle provided by an embodiment of the present application, Figure 8 for Figure 7 A partial enlarged view of point III in the middle.

[0099] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, the rotating assembly 130 is located at the connection between the device body 110 and the display screen 120 , and the rotating assembly 130 is used to drive the device body 110 and the display screen 120 to open and close.

[0100] Exemplarily, the rotating assembly 130 includes a first rotating member 131 and a second rotating member 132 that rotate mutually, the first rotating member 131 is disposed on the device body 110, and the second rotating member 132 is disposed on the display screen 120;

[0101] The locking assembly 140 is used to lock the device body 110 and the display screen 120 so that the display screen 120 is in different states.

[0102] The locking assembly 140 includes a first locking member 141 and a second locking member 142. The first locking member 141 is movably disposed on the device body 110, and the second locking member 142 is disposed on the display screen 120. The first locking member 141 is movable relative to the second locking member 142. The first locking member 141 and the first rotating member 131 are respectively located at opposite ends of the device body 110 along the first direction.

[0103] The display screen 120 has a switchable first state and a second state. When the display screen 120 switches from the first state to the second state, the first locking member 141 is configured to move from the second position to the first position, and the first locking member 141 is locked with the second locking member 142.

[0104] When the display screen 120 switches from the second state to the first state, the first locking member 141 is configured to move from the first position to the second position, and the first locking member 141 and the second locking member 142 are unlocked.

[0105] Through the above arrangement, that is, through the cooperation of the rotating assembly 130 and the locking assembly 140, the notebook computer 100 can be opened automatically. The first rotating member 131 and the second rotating member 132 respectively meet the rotation between the device body 110 and the display screen 120. The user only needs to lightly touch or press a button or voice control, and the first locking member 141 and the second locking member 142 are converted from locking to unlocking. At this time, the display screen 120 automatically opens, and the opening of the notebook computer 100 can be easily controlled, thereby greatly facilitating the user's control of the notebook computer 100 without manual operation.

[0106] Specifically, when the use is finished, it is only necessary to buckle the display screen 120, at which time the first locking member 141 and the second locking member 142 are converted from unlocked to locked, and the notebook computer 100 is in a closed state.

[0107] It should be noted that each structure is described in detail below.

[0108] Specifically, the first rotating member 131 is disposed in the device body 110 , and the second rotating member 132 is disposed in the display screen 120 .

[0109] It should be noted that the second locking member 142 and the second rotating member 132 are respectively located at two opposite ends of the display screen 120 along the first direction.

[0110] Among them, Figure 4 As shown, X represents a first direction, and the first direction may be a width direction of the device body 110 or a width direction of the display screen 120 .

[0111] In some embodiments, the second locking member 142 is fixedly or detachably disposed on the display screen 120 , for example, by being attached, screwed, or fastened.

[0112] It should be noted that when the first locking member 141 is in the first position, the position of the first locking member 141 matches the position of the second locking member 142 and they are locked with each other, and then when the display screen 120 and the device body 110 are rotated to overlap, that is, when the laptop computer 100 is in a closed state, the first state is the closed state.

[0113] When the first locking member 141 is in the second position, the position of the first locking member 141 and the position of the second locking member 142 are staggered and unlocked from each other, and then the display screen 120 and the device body 110 are rotated to separate, that is, when the laptop computer 100 is in the open state, the laptop computer 100 can be in the open state to provide the user with reading or writing functions, wherein the second state is the open state.

[0114] Specifically, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, when the display screen 120 is rotated to the third position away from the device body 110 by the rotating assembly 130, the display screen 120 is inclined to the device body 110, and an angle θ (0°<θ<180°) is formed between the display screen 120 and the device body 110. At this time, the notebook computer 100 is in the open state, and the user can view images on the display screen. The third position is non-restrictive. For example, when θ is 90°, the third position refers to the position where the display screen 120 is perpendicular to the display screen.

[0115] like Figure 3As shown, for example, when the display screen 120 is rotated to the fourth position by the rotating assembly 130, the display screen 120 covers the device body 110. At this time, the user cannot view images using the display screen.

[0116] [Device body 110 and display screen 120]

[0117] It should be noted that the notebook computer 100, referred to as a notebook, is also called a "portable computer, handheld computer, handheld computer or laptop computer". It is characterized by a compact and thin body. Compared with a desktop computer, it is more convenient to carry. It is a small and portable personal computer.

[0118] The laptop computer 100 generally includes a device body 110 and a display screen 120, and the display screen 120 is rotatably connected to the device body 110. The laptop computer 100 generally also includes a keyboard, a motherboard, a battery, a display screen, etc. The keyboard is installed on the device body 110, and the motherboard, the battery and other components are installed in the device body 110. The display screen is installed on the display screen 120 and together constitutes a display, which is mainly used to output images.

[0119] In some embodiments, the display screen is electrically connected to the mainboard to be respectively connected to the display function modules on the mainboard.

[0120] The display screen can be an OLED (Organic Light-Emitting Diode) display layer. The OLED display layer is composed of a substrate, a cathode, an anode, a light-emitting layer and other parts. The light-emitting layer of the OLED is relatively light, so its substrate can use flexible materials. In addition to good flexibility, the OLED display layer also has the advantages of high brightness, low power consumption, fast response, high clarity, and high luminous efficiency.

[0121] In other embodiments, the display screen may be a touch-sensitive layer, and fingers may slide directly on the display screen to perform operations.

[0122] In some embodiments, the outer shell of the device body 110 may be made of metal such as aluminum and carbon steel, so that the device body 110 has high strength and good structural stability.

[0123] In other embodiments, the outer shell of the display screen 120 may also be made of metals such as aluminum and carbon steel, so that the display screen 120 has higher strength and good structural stability.

[0126] like Figures 1 to 12 As shown, in some optional embodiments, a moving groove 1431 is provided on the device body 110, and the moving groove 1431 is extended along the second direction, and the first locking member 141 moves in the moving groove 1431;

[0127] The second direction has an included angle with the first direction.

[0128] It should be noted that the stability and reliability of the locking assembly 140 can be improved, ensuring that the first locking member 141 will not fall off or fail easily during the movement.

[0129] It should be noted that if Figure 4 As shown, Y represents the second direction, wherein the second direction may be the length direction of the device body 110 .

[0130] In some embodiments, the first position is located in the middle of the device body 110 relative to the second position, that is, when the first locking member 141 moves from the first position to the second position, the first locking member 141 at this time moves toward the edge of the device body 110; correspondingly, when the first locking member 141 moves from the second position to the first position, the first locking member 141 at this time moves toward the middle of the device body 110.

[0131] Of course, in other embodiments, the second position is located in the middle of the device body 110 relative to the first position, and the specific position is not limited here.

[0132] like Figures 1 to 12 As shown, in some optional embodiments, the locking assembly 140 further includes a locking bracket 143 , the locking bracket 143 is disposed on the device body 110 , and the moving slot 1431 is provided on the locking bracket 143 .

[0133] It should be noted that the locking bracket 143 provides a stable supporting structure, which makes the locking assembly 140 more stable during use and reduces the risk of loosening or falling off due to vibration or external force.

[0134] The design of the locking bracket 143 and the movable groove 1431 can make the locking assembly 140 modular, which is convenient for maintenance and replacement, and improves the maintainability of the locking assembly 140; the design of the movable groove 1431 allows the first locking member 141 to move freely within a certain range, and move back and forth between the second position and the first position.

[0135] In some embodiments, a mounting groove is provided in the device body 110 to facilitate the installation of the locking bracket 143. The size of the mounting groove matches the size of the locking bracket 143.

[0136] In some optional embodiments, at least one of the first locking member 141 and the second locking member 142 is a magnetic member;

[0137] When the first locking member 141 is located at the first position, the second locking member 142 is attracted to the first locking member 141;

[0138] When the first locking member 141 is located at the second position, the second locking member 142 is disengaged from the first locking member 141 .

[0139] It should be noted that, through the principle of magnetic attraction, when the first locking member 141 moves to the first position, the second locking member 142 automatically engages to achieve rapid locking; when the first locking member 141 moves to the second position, the second locking member 142 automatically disengages to achieve rapid unlocking. This design greatly shortens the time for locking and unlocking and improves efficiency.

[0140] Specifically, the design in which at least one of the first locking member 141 and the second locking member 142 is a magnetic member has significant technical effects in terms of automatic alignment and locking, quick locking and unlocking, reduced wear, improved safety, reduced noise, flexibility and adaptability, and simplified structural design.

[0141] In addition, the use of the magnetic attraction member enables the first locking member 141 and the second locking member 142 to be automatically aligned and attracted, reducing the complexity of manual alignment and improving the convenience and efficiency of operation. In addition, the magnetic attraction member has a strong holding force in the attracted state, which can effectively prevent accidental loosening and enhance the safety of the device.

[0142] like Fig.12 As shown, in some optional embodiments, the locking assembly 140 further includes a first elastic member 144, and the first elastic member 144 is disposed between the groove wall of the moving groove 1431 and the end wall of the first locking member 141;

[0143] When the first locking member 141 moves from the first position to the second position, the first locking member 141 provides a squeezing force for the first elastic member 144;

[0144] When the first locking member 141 moves from the second position to the first position, the first elastic member 144 provides a driving force for the first locking member 141 .

[0145] It should be noted that the first elastic member 144 provides a squeezing force when the first locking member 141 moves from the first position to the second position, ensuring stability and reliability during the locking and unlocking process, and avoiding accidental loosening or locking failure caused by external force or vibration; the first elastic member 144 provides a pushing force when the first locking member 141 moves from the second position to the first position, so that the first locking member 141 can automatically reset. This design simplifies the operation process, reduces the user's operation steps, and improves the convenience of use.

[0146] In addition, the auxiliary force provided by the first elastic member 144 reduces the operating force that the user needs to apply during the locking and unlocking process, making the operation easier and more labor-saving.

[0147] In some embodiments, the elastic parameters (such as spring constant) of the first elastic member 144 can be adjusted according to specific application requirements to adapt to different operating force and locking strength requirements, with high design flexibility.

[0148] In some embodiments, the locking assembly 140 further includes a guide column, which is disposed on the locking bracket 143 and located in the movable groove 1431 . The first elastic member 144 can be sleeved on the guide column, and the guide column provides a guiding function for the first elastic member 144 .

[0149] like Figure 6 , Fig.12 As shown, of course, in other embodiments, at least one guide rod 146 is provided on the locking bracket 143, and a slot is provided on the first locking member 141, through which the guide rod 146 can pass. When the first locking member 141 moves back and forth between the first position and the second position, the guide rod 146 provides a guiding function therefor, that is, the first locking member 141 moves back and forth along the guide rod 146.

[0150] Considering the stability of movement, there are two guide rods 146 and correspondingly, there are also two slots, which cooperate with each other. Specifically, there is no excessive restriction on the number.

[0151] In some optional embodiments, the first locking member 141 is a magnet, and the first elastic member 144 is a compression spring;

[0152] The locking assembly 140 further includes a coil 145, which is disposed on the device body 110 and connected to the first locking member 141. When the coil 145 is energized, the coil 145 provides a thrust to the first locking member 141, so that the first locking member 141 moves from the first position to the second position.

[0153] When the coil 145 is in the de-energized state, the first elastic member 144 provides a driving force for the first locking member 141 to move the first locking member 141 from the second position to the first position.

[0154] It should be noted that the position of the first locking member 141 is controlled by the power-on and power-off states of the coil 145 to achieve electrically controlled locking and unlocking. When powered on, the coil 145 generates an electromagnetic force to push the first locking member 141 to the second position to achieve unlocking; when powered off, the compression spring provides a driving force to reset the first locking member 141 to the first position to achieve locking. This electrically controlled method makes locking and unlocking operations more convenient and intelligent.

[0155] In addition, the combination of electromagnetic force and spring force reduces direct friction and collision between mechanical parts, reduces wear and tear, and thus extends the service life of the locking assembly 140; the electromagnetic force enables the locking and unlocking processes to respond quickly, and the locking or unlocking operation can be completed in a short time, thereby improving the working efficiency of the equipment; the coil 145 is energized only when the laptop computer 100 needs to be opened, and remains powered off at other times. This design reduces energy consumption and improves energy utilization efficiency; the driving force provided by the first elastic member 144 in the power-off state ensures that the first locking member 141 automatically resets to the locked position, thereby realizing the automatic reset function and simplifying user operation.

[0156] In some embodiments, the first locking member 141 is a magnet capable of attracting a metal member, and the second locking member 142 is a metal member.

[0157] Exemplarily, the magnet may be an electromagnet, a magnet, etc. The magnet may be circular, elliptical, polygonal or irregular in shape, etc., which is not limited here.

[0158] Exemplarily, the magnet can be a plate structure, a block structure, a ring structure, etc. The metal piece is iron, cobalt, nickel, etc. that can be attracted by electromagnets and magnets. The metal piece can be a circular, elliptical, polygonal or irregularly shaped plate, block, ring structure, etc., which is not limited here.

[0159] In other embodiments, the first locking member 141 is a magnet made of, for example, a permanent magnetic material, and the second locking member 142 is a metal sheet that can be magnetized, and the metal sheet and the magnet can be attracted to each other. By making the second locking member 142 into a sheet structure, the area of ​​the adsorption connection between the metal sheet and the magnet can be increased, thereby improving the connection reliability between the second locking member 142 and the first locking member 141.

[0160] In addition, in some other embodiments, the first locking member 141 and the second locking member 142 may both be magnets, and the details may also refer to the above, which will not be elaborated in detail here.

[0161] [Rotational component 130]

[0162] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 , Figures 7 to 11 As shown, in some optional embodiments, the rotating assembly 130 further includes a second elastic member 136, and opposite ends of the second elastic member 136 are respectively abutted against the device body 110 and the display screen 120;

[0163] When the first locking member 141 is located at the second position, the second locking member 142 is disengaged from the lock of the first locking member 141 , and the second elastic member 136 provides elastic force for the display screen 120 , so that the display screen 120 is in the second state.

[0164] It should be noted that after the lock is released, the elastic force provided by the second elastic member 136 causes the display screen 120 to automatically switch to the second state, thereby realizing an automatic reset function and simplifying user operations.

[0165] Specifically, the elastic force provided by the second elastic member 136 ensures that the display screen 120 is stable and smooth during the opening and closing process, avoids jamming or unevenness, and improves the comfort of using the device; and the elastic force of the second elastic member 136 ensures that the display screen 120 can move quickly and stably to the second state after the lock is released, preventing the display screen 120 from accidentally rebounding or loosening when it is not fully opened, thereby enhancing the safety of the device.

[0166] In some embodiments, the second elastic member 136 is a torsion spring, and the elastic parameters (such as spring constant) of the second elastic member 136 can be adjusted according to specific application requirements to adapt to different operating forces and opening and closing speed requirements, with high design flexibility.

[0167] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 , Figures 7 to 11 As shown, in some optional embodiments, the first rotating member 131 includes a first rotating shaft 1311 and a first gear 1312, the first rotating shaft 1311 is rotatably disposed on the device body 110, and the first gear 1312 is sleeved on the first rotating shaft 1311 and rotates relative to the first rotating shaft 1311;

[0168] The second rotating member 132 includes a second rotating shaft 1321 and a second gear 1322 . The second rotating shaft 1321 is disposed on the display screen 120 , and the second gear 1322 is fixedly sleeved on the second rotating shaft 1321 .

[0169] The first gear 1312 and the second gear 1322 are meshed with each other.

[0170] It should be noted that the first gear 1312 and the second gear 1322 are meshed, so that the first shaft 1311 and the second shaft 1321 can rotate synchronously. This design ensures that the rotation between the device body 110 and the display screen 120 is coordinated and consistent, avoiding the jamming or misalignment caused by asynchronism.

[0171] In addition, the meshing transmission between the first gear 1312 and the second gear 1322 is efficient and smooth, and can provide stable torque transmission during rotation, reduce vibration and noise, and improve the comfort of equipment use; and the structure is simple and reliable, and can maintain stable performance during long-term use, reducing the frequency of maintenance and replacement, and improving the reliability and stability of the equipment.

[0172] The number of teeth and the module of the first gear 1312 and the second gear 1322 can be adjusted according to specific application requirements to achieve different transmission ratios and rotation speeds, which has high design flexibility.

[0173] It should be noted that the first gear 1312 and the second gear 1322 are meshed and rotated, so the first gear 1312 will drive the second gear 1322 to rotate when rotating. Since the second gear 1322 is fixedly mounted on the second rotating shaft 1321, it will further drive the second rotating shaft 1321 to rotate relative to the device body 110. Since the second rotating shaft 1321 can be fixedly set on the display screen 120, the display screen 120 is further rotated relative to the device body 110, thereby realizing that the display screen 120 rotates to the third position or to the fourth position.

[0174] In some embodiments, there are two first rotating members 131 and two second rotating members 132 , wherein the two first rotating members 131 are located on opposite sides of the device body 110 along the second direction, and the two second rotating members 132 are located on opposite sides of the display screen 120 along the second direction.

[0175] In addition, in order to ensure that the rotating components 130 on both sides can rotate at the same time and avoid one side from tilting, in some embodiments, the rotating components 130 may include a balancing bar 138, which is connected to the first rotating members 131 on both sides, or to the second rotating members 132 on both sides, wherein the connection may be direct or indirect. When the rotating components 130 on both sides rotate, the balancing bar 138 can keep the display screen 120 stable.

[0176] Exemplarily, the balance pole 138 is rotatably disposed on the first mounting seat 134, and a portion of the structure of the first mounting seat 134 may protrude to facilitate the installation of the balance pole 138. The purpose of such design depends on the space between the actual structures to make the entire structure more compact.

[0177] In some optional embodiments, the rotating assembly 130 further includes a first mounting seat 134 and a second mounting seat 135 , wherein the first mounting seat 134 is disposed on the device body 110 , and the second mounting seat 135 is disposed on the display screen 120 ;

[0178] The first rotating shaft 1311 is rotatably disposed on the first mounting seat 134 , and the second rotating shaft 1321 is disposed on the second mounting seat 135 .

[0179] It should be noted that the first mounting seat 134 and the second mounting seat 135 provide a fixed support structure, so that the first rotating shaft 1311 and the second rotating shaft 1321 are more stable during rotation, reducing the deviation or looseness caused by external force or vibration, and extending the service life of the rotating component 130.

[0180] The stable support structure ensures smooth engagement between the first gear 1312 and the second gear 1322, reduces energy loss, and improves transmission efficiency.

[0181] In some embodiments, the first mounting base 134 can be installed on the device body 110 in a detachable manner, for example, by using screws and nuts to achieve connection, by inserting pins or plugs into reserved holes, by snapping together, etc.

[0182] Accordingly, the second mounting base 135 can be installed on the display screen 120 in a detachable manner, for example, by using screws and nuts to achieve connection, by inserting pins or plugs into reserved holes, by snapping together, etc.

[0183] In some optional embodiments, the rotating assembly 130 further includes a third elastic member 133 , which is sleeved on the first rotating shaft 1311 and located between the side wall of the first mounting seat 134 and the first gear 1312 .

[0184] It should be noted that the arrangement of the third elastic member 133 on the first rotating shaft 1311 can effectively absorb and buffer the vibration and impact generated during the rotation process, so that the display screen 120 slowly switches from the first state to the second state, reducing direct collision and wear between mechanical parts, thereby extending the service life of the rotating assembly 130.

[0185] In addition, the elastic force provided by the third elastic member 133 can compensate for the small gap and error generated during the meshing process of the first gear 1312 and the second gear 1322, ensuring that the first gear 1312 and the second gear 1322 are meshed more closely and stably, thereby improving the smoothness and reliability of the transmission.

[0186] As shown in FIG5 , in some embodiments, in order to slow down the rotation speed of the display screen 120 , the rotating assembly 130 also includes a friction plate 137 , which is sleeved on the first rotating shaft 1311 , and the friction plate 137 has a friction surface, wherein the friction surface abuts against the end face of the first gear 1312 .

[0187] Specifically, the third elastic member 133 is located between a side wall of the first mounting seat 134 and the friction plate 137 , and the first gear 1312 is located between the friction surface and the other side wall of the first mounting seat 134 .

[0188] In some embodiments, the third elastic member 133 is a compression spring, and the elastic parameters (such as spring constant) of the third elastic member 133 can be adjusted according to specific application requirements to adapt to different operating force and rotation speed requirements, with high design flexibility.

[0189] In some optional implementations, the laptop computer 100 further includes a controller, which is electrically connected to the coil 145 and is used to control the coil 145 to be in a powered-on state or a powered-off state.

[0190] It should be noted that the controller can intelligently control the power-on and power-off states of the coil 145 according to preset conditions or user instructions to achieve automatic operation. For example, when the user presses a specific button or triggers a specific sensor, the controller can automatically control the coil 145 to be powered on to unlock the component.

[0191] In some embodiments, the controller is used to receive the opening and closing instructions input by the user, and transmit the instructions to the rotating component 130 and the locking component 140. The sensor is used to detect the current state of the notebook computer 100 and feed back the state information to the controller.

[0192] In some embodiments, the controller can ensure that the power-on and power-off processes of the coil 145 are safe and reliable through software logic and hardware protection mechanisms to prevent unexpected situations caused by misoperation or failure. For example, the controller can automatically power off when abnormal current or temperature is detected to protect the safety of the device and the user.

[0193] It should be noted that, through the intelligent control of the controller, the user can more conveniently operate the notebook computer 100. For example, the user only needs to press a button or operate through the touch screen to achieve the locking or unlocking function, which improves the user experience.

[0194] In addition, the controller can accurately control the power-on time and current size of the coil 145, thereby accurately controlling the action of the locking assembly 140 and improving the accuracy and reliability of the operation.

[0195] In some embodiments, the controller can be integrated on the motherboard or other circuit boards of the notebook computer 100, taking up little space and facilitating overall design and layout.

[0197] The laptop can be opened automatically by the cooperation of the rotating assembly and the locking assembly. The first rotating member and the second rotating member respectively meet the rotation between the device body and the display screen. The user only needs to lightly touch or press a button or voice control, and the first locking member and the second locking member are converted from locking to unlocking. At this time, the display screen automatically opens, and the opening of the laptop can be easily controlled, thereby greatly facilitating the user's control of the laptop without manual operation.
