[0049] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown in , a foldable mobile terminal provided by an embodiment of the present invention includes a flexible display screen 10, a folding mechanism 20 and a shell assembly 30. The shell assembly 30 includes a first shell 31 and a second shell 32, wherein the folding mechanism 20 is connected between the first shell 31 and the second shell 32, and the flexible display screen 10 is arranged on the first shell 31 and the second shell 32. Figure 1 The foldable mobile terminal is in an unfolded state, and the first housing 31 and the second housing 32 are symmetrical relative to the folding mechanism 20. Fig.19 As shown, when the first housing 31 and the second housing 32 are rotated relative to the folding mechanism 20 and are in a fully folded state, the flexible display screen 10 is outside the mobile terminal. Figure 1 As shown, in the unfolded state, the extension length ( Figure 1 The dimension in the X-axis direction) and the extension length of the side facing away from the flexible display screen 10 ( Figure 1 The scale of the X-axis direction is the same as Fig.19 As shown, the shell component 30 has its own thickness ( Figure 1 In the folded state, the extension length of the shell assembly 30 on the side facing the flexible display screen 10 is greater than the extension length on the side facing away from the flexible display screen 10. By setting the folding mechanism 20, the first shell 31 and the second shell 32 can adapt to the length difference generated when switching between the unfolded state and the folded state.
[0050] The first shell 31 includes a first front shell 311 and a first rear shell 312 that are combined with each other, and the second shell 32 includes a second front shell 321 and a second rear shell 322 that are combined with each other. The combination method can be screw locking, bonding, welding, etc. The flexible display screen 10 is arranged on the first front shell 311 and the second front shell 321. The display area of the flexible display screen 10 can be rectangular or rounded rectangular in the unfolded state. There is a certain distance between the first front shell 311 and the first rear shell 312 in the Y-axis direction. Similarly, there is a certain distance between the second front shell 321 and the second rear shell 322 in the Y-axis direction. This distance provides space for placing components such as power modules and communication modules, and also provides space required for the folding mechanism 20 to slide and retract relative to the first shell 31 and the second shell 32.
[0051] There is also a certain distance between the first shell 31 and the second shell 32 in the X-axis direction. The folding mechanism 20 is arranged in the distance between the first shell 31 and the second shell 32 in the X-axis direction, and at least part of the structure of the folding mechanism 20 is accommodated in the first shell 31 and the second shell 32. The distance between the first shell 31 and the second shell 32 in the X-axis direction will change during the process of the first shell 31 and the second shell 32 rotating around the folding mechanism 20. Therefore, during the process of the first shell 31 and the second shell 32 rotating around the folding mechanism 20, the folding mechanism 20 retracts into the first shell 31 and the second shell 32 to different degrees. Also refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 The folding mechanism 20 includes a first rotating assembly 50 and a second rotating assembly 60. The first rotating assembly 50 is connected to the first housing 31, and the first rotating assembly 50 is at least partially accommodated in the first housing 31 and can slide and retract relative to the first housing 31. The second rotating assembly 60 is connected to the second housing 32, and the second rotating assembly 60 is at least partially accommodated in the second housing 32 and can slide and retract relative to the second housing 32. By sliding and retracting the first rotating assembly 50 relative to the first housing 31 and sliding and retracting the second rotating assembly 60 relative to the second housing 32, the first housing 31 and the second housing 32 can adapt to the length difference generated when switching between the unfolded state and the folded state.
[0052] In one embodiment, the first rotating assembly 50 and the second rotating assembly 60 have the same structure, and the first rotating assembly 50 and the second rotating assembly 60 are arranged along the center axis II ( Figure 5 ) are symmetrically distributed, and through the symmetrical arrangement of the first rotating assembly 50 and the second rotating assembly 60, the symmetrical opening and closing of the first shell 31 and the second shell 32 along the central axis II can be achieved.
[0053] Also refer to Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 The first rotating assembly 50 includes a first slide plate 51, a first rotating shaft 53 and a first connecting rod 54.

The first slide plate 51 is at least partially accommodated in the first housing 31 and can slide and retract relative to the first housing 31. During the symmetrical opening and closing of the first housing 31 and the second housing 32, the first slide plate 51 and the first rotating shaft 53 slide and retract relative to the first housing 31 together, the second end 542 of the first connecting rod 54 rotates relative to the first housing 31, and the first end 541 of the first connecting rod 54 slides on the first rotating shaft 53 and rotates relative to the first rotating shaft 53. The length difference generated during the symmetrical opening and closing of the first housing 31 and the second housing 32 is adapted by changing the degree to which the first slide plate 51 is accommodated in the first housing 31.
[0054] Figure 2 and Figure 3 In the illustrated embodiment, two first rotating shafts 53 and two first connecting rods 54 are disposed on the first slide plate 51, and are vertically symmetrically disposed about the middle position in the Z-axis direction of the first slide plate 51. In some other embodiments, the number of the first rotating shafts 53 and the first connecting rods 54 may be one or more, and different numbers of first rotating shafts 53 and first connecting rods 54 may all enable the first slide plate 51 to slide and retract relative to the first housing 31.

[0077] The two first engaging positions 571 of the first elastic sheet 57 correspond to the two ends of the sliding path of the first end 541 of the first connecting rod 54 on the first rotating shaft 53. A certain degree of interference is formed between the first engaging position 571 and the first end 541 of the first connecting rod 54, so that the first engaging position 571 forms a certain clamping force on the first end 541 of the first connecting rod 54 to prevent the position of the first connecting rod 54 from changing randomly, thereby stabilizing the position of the first slide plate 51 relative to the first housing 31, that is, the foldable mobile terminal can be kept in a folded state or an unfolded state more stably.
[0078] In one embodiment, the first positioning column 543 on the first end 541 of the first connecting rod 54 extends through the opposite sides of the first end 541, wherein one end of the first positioning column 543 is matched with the first positioning hole 523 on the first sliding block 52, and the other end of the first positioning column 543 is inserted into the first engaging position 571 of the first elastic sheet 57. The first engaging position 571 clamps the first positioning column 543 to form a certain clamping force on the first connecting rod 54.
[0079] In one embodiment, a first damping position 572 is provided between the two first engaging positions 571 of the first spring sheet 57, wherein the resistance increases when the first end 541 of the first connecting rod 54 slides from the first engaging position 571 to the first damping position 572. The increase in resistance can be achieved by the clamping force applied to the first positioning column 543 by the first damping position 572 being greater than the clamping force applied to the first positioning column 543 by the first engaging position 571. For example, the first spring sheet 57 can be in the shape of an oval with one end open and the other end closed, the two first engaging positions 571 are formed at the two ends of the first spring sheet 57, the first damping position 572 is formed in the middle of the first spring sheet 57, the gap in the first damping position 572 for the first positioning column 543 to pass through is smaller than the gap in the first engaging position 571 for the first positioning column 543 to pass through, and thus the resistance of the first connecting rod 54 increases in the process of passing from the first engaging position 571 to the first damping position 572. By disposing the first elastic sheet 57 in this way, when the first shell 31 and the second shell 32 of the foldable mobile terminal are rotated, there is a stronger damping feeling.
[0080] In some other embodiments, the first elastic sheet 57 may also be in a closed ring shape. Further, in some other embodiments, the first elastic sheet 57 may be in two separate strips, and both ends of the two separate strip elastic sheets may be fixed to the first slide plate 51 through a first bracket 56 or other elements (or other forms) to provide different resistances at different positions of the sliding path of the first connecting rod 54 along the first rotating shaft 53.
[0081] like Fig. 9 As shown in FIG. 5 , the first bracket 56 has a first receiving cavity 560, and the first elastic sheet 57 is received in the first receiving cavity 560. After the first bracket 56 is fixed on the first slide 51, the first slide 51 closes the first receiving cavity 560, so that the first elastic sheet 57 is fixed in the first receiving cavity 560.
[0082] Further, the first receiving cavity 560 includes two first positioning cavities 561 corresponding to the first engaging position 571 of the first elastic sheet 57, and a first releasing cavity 562 located between the two first positioning cavities 561. The space in the first releasing cavity 562 is larger than the space in the first positioning cavity 561. After the first engaging position 571 is placed in the first positioning cavity 561, the first engaging position 571 is fixed and cannot move. The first damping position 572 located between the two first engaging positions 571 is correspondingly placed in the first releasing cavity 562, and the first releasing cavity 562 has a space that allows the first damping position 572 to undergo elastic deformation.
[0083] In one embodiment, the second rotating assembly 60 further includes a second elastic piece 67 disposed on the second slide plate 61, and the second elastic piece 67 is respectively provided with a second engaging position 671 at two extreme positions of the sliding direction of the first end 641 of the second connecting rod 64. In an embodiment with a second bracket 66, the second elastic piece 67 is fixed to the second slide plate 61 through the second bracket 66, and the second elastic piece 67 is disposed in the second bracket 66.
[0084] The two second engaging positions 671 of the second elastic sheet 67 correspond to the two ends of the sliding path of the first end 641 of the second connecting rod 64 on the second rotating shaft 63. A certain degree of interference is formed between the second engaging position 671 and the first end 641 of the second connecting rod 64, so that the second engaging position 671 forms a certain clamping force on the first end 641 of the second connecting rod 64 to prevent the position of the second connecting rod 64 from changing randomly, thereby stabilizing the position of the second slide plate 61 relative to the second housing 32, that is, the foldable mobile terminal can be kept in a folded state or an unfolded state more stably.
[0085] In one embodiment, the second positioning column 643 on the first end 641 of the second connecting rod 64 extends through the opposite sides of the first end 641, wherein one end of the second positioning column 643 is engaged with the second positioning hole 623 on the second sliding block 62, and the other end of the second positioning column 643 is inserted into the second engaging position 671 of the second elastic sheet 67. The second engaging position 671 clamps the second positioning column 643 to form a certain clamping force on the second connecting rod 64.
[0086] Also refer to Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Fig.21 , Fig. 22 ,in Figure 5 The folding mechanism 20 is shown in the unfolded state, and the second positioning column 643 formed on the first end 641 of the second connecting rod 64 is inserted into one of the second engaging positions 671. Fig. 22 The folding mechanism 20 is shown to be in a folded state, and a second positioning column 643 formed on the first end 641 of the second connecting rod 64 is inserted into another second engaging position 671 .
[0087] In one embodiment, a second damping position 672 is provided between the two second engaging positions 671 of the second spring sheet 67, wherein the resistance increases when the first end 641 of the second connecting rod 64 slides from the second engaging position 671 to the second damping position 672. The increase in resistance can be achieved by the clamping force applied to the second positioning column 643 by the second damping position 672 being greater than the clamping force applied to the second positioning column 643 by the second engaging position 671. For example, the second spring sheet 67 can be in the shape of an oval with one end open and the other end closed, the two second engaging positions 671 are formed at the two ends of the second spring sheet 67, the second damping position 672 is formed in the middle of the second spring sheet 67, the gap in the second damping position 672 for the second positioning column 643 to pass through is smaller than the gap in the second engaging position 671 for the second positioning column 643 to pass through, and thus the resistance of the second connecting rod 64 increases in the process of passing from the second engaging position 671 to the second damping position 672. By disposing the second elastic sheet 67 in this way, when the first shell 31 and the second shell 32 of the foldable mobile terminal are rotated, there is a stronger damping feeling.
[0088] In some other embodiments, the second elastic piece 67 may also be in a closed ring shape. Further, in some other embodiments, the second elastic piece 67 may be in two separate strips, and both ends of the two separate strip elastic pieces may be fixed to the second slide plate 61 through a second bracket 66 or other elements (or other forms) to provide different resistances at different positions of the sliding path of the second connecting rod 64 along the second rotating shaft 63.
[0089] like Fig. 9 As shown in FIG. 1 , the second bracket 66 has a second receiving cavity 660, and the second elastic piece 67 is received in the second receiving cavity 660. After the second bracket 66 is fixed on the second slide 61, the second slide 61 closes the second receiving cavity 660, so that the second elastic piece 67 is fixed in the second receiving cavity 660.
[0090] Further, the second receiving cavity 660 includes two second positioning cavities 661 corresponding to the second engaging position 671 of the second elastic piece 67, and a second releasing cavity 662 located between the two second positioning cavities 661. The space in the second releasing cavity 662 is larger than the space in the second positioning cavity 661. After the second engaging position 671 is placed in the second positioning cavity 661, the second engaging position 671 is fixed and cannot move. The second damping position 672 located between the two second engaging positions 671 is correspondingly placed in the second releasing cavity 662, and the second releasing cavity 662 has a space that allows the second damping position 672 to undergo elastic deformation.
[0091] Also refer to Fig.10 , Fig.11 and Fig.12In one embodiment, the foldable mobile terminal further includes a connecting piece 70 and two pressing blocks 71. The connecting piece 70 spans across the first rotating assembly 50 and the second rotating assembly 60, and the two ends of the connecting piece 70 are respectively connected to the first shell 31 and the second shell 32 by a pressing block 71 for relative sliding. The length difference change generated during the rotation of the first shell 31 and the second shell 32 is absorbed by the first rotating assembly 50 and the second rotating assembly 60 in the folding mechanism 20 sliding and retracting relative to the first shell 31 and the second shell 32, so that the appearance of the foldable mobile terminal is consistent and complete during the folding and unfolding process. By providing the connecting piece 70, the first shell 31 and the second shell 32 can be prevented from being overstretched, and the flexible display screen 10 can be prevented from being stretched and damaged.
[0092] Also refer to Fig.16 The first end 701 of the connecting piece 70 is provided with a first elongated hole 703, and the second end 702 of the connecting piece 70 is provided with a second elongated hole 704. The pressing block 71 passes through the first elongated hole 703 and is fixedly connected to the first shell 31, and another pressing block 71 passes through the second elongated hole 704 and is fixedly connected to the second shell 32. When the first rotating assembly 50 is extended relative to the first shell 31 and the second rotating assembly 60 is extended relative to the second shell 32, the connecting piece 70 moves relative to the pressing block 71 along the extending direction of the first and second elongated holes 703 and 704, that is, moves relative to the first and second shells 31 and 32. Fig.12 As shown in , when the foldable mobile terminal is in the unfolded state, the outer ends of the first and second elongated holes 703 of the connecting piece 70, i.e., the ends away from the first rotating assembly 50 and the second rotating assembly 60, respectively, abut against the first shell 31 and the second shell 32, so that the first shell 31 and the second shell 32 cannot continue to move away from each other, thereby preventing the first and second shells 31 and 32 from being overstretched. During the folding process, since the first and second elongated holes 703 have sliding space relative to the first and second shells 31 and 32, the connecting piece 70 can slide relative to the first and second shells 31 and 32 to adapt to the length change of the first and second shells 32 during the folding process.
[0093] The connecting piece 70 includes two connecting parts 705 located at the first end 701 and the second end 702 , and a supporting part 706 connected between the two connecting parts 705 . The connecting part 705 is used to connect to the pressing block 71 , and the supporting part 706 is used to support the flexible display screen 10 .
[0094] The pressing block 71 may be a fastener such as a screw, and the first and second elongated holes 703 and 704 are penetrated to connect the connecting piece 70 to the first shell 31 and the second shell 32. In one embodiment, the pressing block 71 is in the shape of a square block, and is pressed on the first end 701 and the second end 702 of the connecting piece 70. The pressing block 71 and the first and second elongated holes 703 and 704 are penetrated by another fastener, and locked on the first and second shells 31 and 32. For example, a first matching position 314 is formed on the first front shell 311, and the pressing block 71 slidably connects the first end 701 of the connecting piece 70 to the first matching position 314 of the first front shell 311. Correspondingly, a second matching position 324 is formed on the second front shell 321, and another pressing block 71 slidably connects the second end 702 of the connecting piece 70 to the second matching position 324 of the second front shell 321.
[0095] In some embodiments, the intersection of the support portion 706 and the two connecting portions 705 forms a bend. Fig.12 As shown in FIG. 1 , both the first matching position 314 and the second matching position 324 are formed with depressions to match the bend on the connecting piece 70 , and are also used to accommodate the corresponding pressing block 71 .
[0096] The connecting sheet 70 is provided with perforations 700 spaced apart from each other. In some embodiments, the perforations 700 are provided on the supporting portion 706, and these perforations 700 make the connecting sheet 70 easier to bend, so that the connecting sheet 70 better fits the first rotating assembly 50 and the second rotating assembly 60, and avoids wrinkling of the connecting sheet 70 and affecting the supporting effect of the flexible display screen 10.
[0097] In some embodiments, a fixing structure 707 connected to the support bar 26 is further provided on the support portion 706. The fixing structure 707 may be a welding hole, and after the connecting piece 70 crosses the support bar 26, it may be fixedly connected to the support bar 26 by welding.
[0098] In one embodiment, there are two connecting pieces 70 . It can be understood that in other embodiments, the number of connecting pieces 70 can be increased or decreased as needed.
[0099] refer to Fig.10 , Fig.11 In one embodiment, the foldable mobile terminal further includes a decorative block 72, which is located at both ends of the folding mechanism 20 in the Z-axis direction and in the gap between the first shell 31 and the second shell 32, and is used to shield the end structure of the folding mechanism 20 from being exposed and affecting the appearance.
[0100] Also refer to Fig.11 , Fig.13 , Fig.14A first connecting position 315 is provided on the first front shell 311, and a second connecting position 325 is provided on the second front shell 321. The decorative block 72 is connected to the first connecting position 315 of the first front shell 311 and the second connecting position 325 of the second front shell 321, and is located at both ends of the first slide plate 51 and the second slide plate 61 in the Z-axis direction.
[0101] Also refer to Fig.17 and Fig.18 , the surface of the decorative block 72 on one side facing the flexible display screen 10 is roughly flat to facilitate the mounting of the flexible display screen 10. The surface of the decorative block 72 on one side facing away from the flexible display screen 10 forms a connection structure with the first front shell 311 and the second front shell 321, such as a convex column 721. A plurality of ribs 722 are also formed on the surface of the decorative block 72 on one side facing away from the flexible display screen 10. When the foldable mobile terminal is in an unfolded state, the decorative block 72 is in a naturally unfolded state, and the spacing between two adjacent ribs 722 gradually increases in the direction away from the flexible display screen 10. When the decorative block 72 is bent, that is, when the foldable mobile terminal is in a folded state, the adjacent ribs 722 fit each other.
[0102] like Fig.10 and Fig.11 As shown in FIG. 1 , the first housing 31 is provided with a first gap 316. Fig.14 and Fig.15 As shown in the figure, the first notch 316 is arranged on the side of the first front shell 311 adjacent to the first rotating assembly 50. The first latching tooth 511 corresponding to the first notch 316 of the first shell 31 is arranged on the first slide plate 51. When the foldable mobile terminal switches between the folded state and the unfolded state, the first slide plate 51 is accommodated in the first shell 31 to varying degrees. By arranging corresponding latching teeth and notches on the first shell 31 and the first slide plate 51, the vacant area formed between the first shell 31 and the first slide plate 51 can be reduced, thereby more stably supporting the flexible display screen 10 and preventing the flexible display screen 10 from being partially deformed by force and causing functional damage.
[0103] In one embodiment, if Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown in the figure, the first slide plate 51 includes a first substrate 510, and the first latching teeth 511 are formed on the first substrate 510. The first substrate 510 is located between the first front shell 311 and the first rear shell 312, and can slide and retract between the first front shell 311 and the first rear shell 312. The first latching teeth 511 and the first front shell 311 are located in the same plane, and the plane is parallel to the plane defined by the XZ axis. The first latching teeth 511 and the first front shell 311 are located in the same plane for jointly supporting the flexible display screen 10.
[0104] It can be understood that a corresponding first notch is formed between two adjacent first teeth 511 on the first slide plate 51, and a corresponding first tooth is formed between two adjacent first notches 316 on the first front shell 311. The first tooth 511 on the first slide plate 51 corresponds to the first notch 316 on the first front shell 311, and the first notch on the first slide plate 51 corresponds to the first tooth on the first front shell 311.
[0105] The second housing 32 is provided with a second gap 326. Fig.14 and Fig.15 As shown in the figure, the second notch 326 is arranged on the side of the second front shell 321 adjacent to the second rotating assembly 60. The second slide plate 61 is provided with a second latching tooth 611 corresponding to the second notch 326 of the second shell 32. When the foldable mobile terminal switches between the folded state and the unfolded state, the second slide plate 61 is accommodated in the second shell 32 to varying degrees. By providing corresponding latching teeth and notches on the second shell 32 and the second slide plate 61, the vacant area formed between the second shell 32 and the second slide plate 61 can be reduced, thereby more stably supporting the flexible display screen 10 and preventing the flexible display screen 10 from being partially deformed by force and causing functional damage.
[0106] In one embodiment, if Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown in the figure, the second slide plate 61 includes a second substrate 610, and the second latching teeth 611 are formed on the second substrate 610. The second substrate 610 is located between the second front shell 321 and the second rear shell 322, and can slide and retract between the second front shell 321 and the second rear shell 322. The second latching teeth 611 and the second front shell 321 are located in the same plane, which is parallel to the plane defined by the XZ axis, and are used to jointly support the flexible display screen 10.
[0107] It can be understood that a corresponding second notch is formed between two adjacent second latching teeth 611 on the second slide plate 61, and a corresponding second latching tooth is formed between two adjacent second notches 326 on the second front shell 321. The second latching tooth 611 on the second slide plate 61 corresponds to the second notch 326 on the second front shell 321, and the second notch on the second slide plate 61 corresponds to the second latching tooth on the second front shell 321.
[0108] like Figure 4 As shown in FIG, there is a gap 512 between the first latching teeth 511 on the first slide plate 51 and the second latching teeth 611 on the second slide plate 61 , and the support bar 26 at least partially fills the gap 512 .
[0109] like Figure 4 and Figure 6As shown in the figure, the first latch teeth 511 on the first slide plate 51 are connected to each other at one end away from the first shell 31 to form a first support beam 513, and the second latch teeth 611 on the second slide plate 61 are connected to each other at one end away from the second shell 32 to form a second support beam 613, and the support bar 26 is at least partially placed on the first support beam 513 and the second support beam 613.
[0110] like Fig.13 As shown in the figure, the foldable mobile terminal also includes a first roller 58 and a first spring 59, and the first roller 58 and the first spring 59 are arranged between the first rotating component 50 and the first shell 31. The first rotating component 50 is provided with a first groove 514. When the first rotating component 50 slides and retracts relative to the first shell 31, the first roller 58 can enter or disengage from the first groove 514, so that the foldable mobile terminal has a sense of being folded into place.
[0111] In some embodiments, the first roller 58 and the first spring 59 may be disposed between the first slide plate 51 and the first rear shell 312. In other embodiments, the first roller 58 and the first spring 59 may be disposed between the first slide plate 51 and the first front shell 311. Figure 4 and Fig.13 In the illustrated embodiment, the first groove 514 is formed on a side wall of the first latching tooth 511 of the first slide plate 51 , and the first groove 514 faces an adjacent first latching tooth 511 on the first substrate 510 .
[0112] like Fig.13 and Fig.15 As shown in FIG, the first notch 316 is recessed away from the corresponding first latching tooth 511 to form a first cavity 317, and the first roller 58 and the first spring 59 are accommodated in the first cavity 317. The first spring 59 presses against the first roller 58 so that the first roller 58 is at least partially exposed from the first cavity 317, so that the first roller 58 and the side wall of the first latching tooth 511 are elastically abutted.
[0113] Further, the extension length of the first latching teeth 511 forming the first groove 514 toward the first housing 31 is greater than the extension length of the other first latching teeth 511 toward the first housing 31 .
[0114] In some embodiments, the first roller 58 and the first spring 59 include at least two groups, and the two opposite side walls of the first latching tooth 511 are formed with first grooves 514 matching the first roller 58. Correspondingly, the first notch 316 is also recessed away from the corresponding first latching tooth 511 to form two first cavities 317, and each first cavity 317 is used to accommodate a group of first rollers 58 and first springs 59.
[0115] In some embodiments, two first grooves 514 are formed on the side wall of the first latching tooth 511 corresponding to the two extreme positions of the first slide plate 51. For example, one of the extreme positions is located at the end of the first latching tooth 511 close to the first housing 31, and the other extreme position is located at the junction of the first latching tooth 511 and the first crossbeam 513. When the foldable mobile terminal is in the folded state and the unfolded state, the first roller 58 enters the first grooves 514 located at the two extreme positions respectively, thereby generating a sense of being unfolded or folded in place.
[0116] The foldable mobile terminal also includes a second roller 68 and a second spring 69, which are arranged between the second rotating component 60 and the second shell 32. A second groove 614 is set on the second rotating component 60. When the second rotating component 60 slides and retracts relative to the second shell 32, the second roller 68 can enter or escape from the second groove 614, so that the foldable mobile terminal has a sense of unfolding into place.
[0117] In some embodiments, the second roller 68 and the second spring 69 may be disposed between the second slide plate 61 and the second rear shell 322. In other embodiments, the second roller 68 and the second spring 69 may be disposed between the second slide plate 61 and the second front shell 321. Figure 4 and Fig.13 In the illustrated embodiment, the second groove 614 is formed on a side wall of the second latching tooth 611 of the second slide plate 61 , and the second groove 614 faces an adjacent second latching tooth 611 on the second substrate 610 .
[0118] like Fig.13 and Fig.15 As shown in FIG, the second notch 326 is recessed away from the corresponding second latching tooth 611 to form a second cavity 327, and the second roller 68 and the second spring 69 are accommodated in the second cavity 327. The second spring 69 pushes against the second roller 68 so that the second roller 68 is at least partially exposed from the second cavity 327, so that the second roller 68 and the side wall of the second latching tooth 611 are elastically abutted.
[0119] Further, the extension length of the second latching teeth 611 forming the second groove 614 toward the second housing 32 is greater than the extension length of the other second latching teeth 611 toward the second housing 32 .
[0120] In some embodiments, the second roller 68 and the second spring 69 include at least two groups, and the two opposite side walls of the second latch 611 are formed with second grooves 614 matching the second roller 68. Correspondingly, the second notch 326 is also recessed away from the corresponding second latch 611 to form two second cavities 327, each of which is used to accommodate a group of second rollers 68 and second springs 69.
[0121] In some embodiments, two second grooves 614 are formed on the side wall of the second latch 611 corresponding to the two extreme positions of the second slide plate 61. For example, one of the extreme positions is located at the end of the second latch 611 close to the second housing 32, and the other extreme position is located at the junction of the second latch 611 and the second crossbeam 613. When the foldable mobile terminal is in the folded state and the unfolded state, the second roller 68 enters the second grooves 614 located at the two extreme positions respectively, thereby generating a sense of being unfolded or folded in place.
[0122] The technical features of the above-described embodiments may be arbitrarily combined. To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-described embodiments are described.
