The rotating rod 7 is rotatably installed on the back of the other end of the flexible plate 2. By setting up a first motor 4 and an electric telescopic rod 6, during use, the first motor 4 drives the rotating shaft 5 to rotate in the forward direction, while the electric telescopic rod 6 extends, causing the flexible plate 2 to open, thereby enabling the flexible display screen 3 to unfold to a suitable viewing angle to meet different usage needs; by setting up a cylindrical housing 1 to house the flexible display screen 3, the first motor 4 drives the rotating shaft 5 to rotate in the reverse direction, while the electric telescopic rod 6 retracts, causing the flexible plate 2 to adhere to the arc surface of the housing 1, which can prevent the flexible display screen 3 from developing creases, thereby extending the service life of the flexible display screen 3.

[0027] In an optional embodiment, the back of the flexible plate 2 is connected to two symmetrical flexible strips 8, and the top of each flexible strip 8 is fixedly connected to a rotating sleeve 9 that rotatably engages with the rotating rod 7. The outer wall of the middle portion of the housing 1 is provided with an annular groove 10 that engages with the flexible plate 2. The annular groove 10 is provided with an arc-shaped groove 11 that engages with the flexible strip 8, and the back of the annular groove 10 is provided with a groove 12 that engages with the rotating rod 7. By providing the flexible strips 8 and rotating sleeves 9, they are rotatably connected to the rotating rod 7. By providing the annular groove 10, arc-shaped groove 11, and groove 12, the flexible display screen 3 is housed in a cylindrical shape, which is neat, simple, and easy to carry, preventing accidental damage to the flexible display screen 3.

[0028] In an optional embodiment, speakers 13 are mounted at both ends of the housing 1, and protective shells 14 are mounted on the outer side of the speakers 13. Support frames 15 are mounted at both ends of the housing 1. The speakers 13 are used to play sound, and the protective shells 14 provide protection. The protective shells 14 and the housing 1 are cylindrical in shape, making the overall appearance of the device simple and elegant.

[0029] In an optional embodiment, an arc-shaped slot 16 is provided on the outer wall of the front of the housing 1. The bottom of the flexible plate 2 is fixedly installed on the inner side of the slot 16, and a control panel 33 is provided on the outer wall of the slot 16. By providing the slot 16, the bottom end of the flexible plate 2 is fixed, and by providing the control panel 33, the unfolding and retraction of the flexible plate 2 are controlled, thereby controlling the unfolding and retraction of the flexible display screen 3.

[0030] In an optional embodiment, the housing 1 has a movable groove 17 in the middle that cooperates with the electric telescopic rod 6. Partitions 18 are provided on both sides of the movable groove 17, and the rotating shaft 5 is rotatably mounted between the two partitions 18. A first motor 4 is mounted on one of the partitions 18, and the output end of the first motor 4 is connected to a drive gear 20. A driven gear 21 that meshes with the drive gear 20 is mounted on the outer wall of the rotating shaft 5.

[0031] In an optional embodiment, the bottom end of the electric telescopic rod 6 is connected to a sleeve 22 that fits onto the outer wall of the middle part of the rotating shaft 5. A limiting block 23 is provided on the outer wall of the rotating shaft 5, and a limiting groove 24 that mates with the limiting block 23 is provided on the inner wall of the sleeve 22. A first screw hole 25 is provided on the outer wall of the sleeve 22, and a first screw 26 is threaded onto the inner side of the first screw hole 25. By providing the limiting block 23 and the limiting groove 24, the electric telescopic rod 6 can rotate with the rotating shaft 5; by providing the first screw hole 25 and the first screw 26, it is convenient to install and remove the electric telescopic rod 6.

[0032] In an optional embodiment, an arc-shaped cover 27, which rotates with the pivot 5, is provided on the outer wall of the middle portion of the housing 1. The arc-shaped cover 27 is transparent. By providing the arc-shaped cover 27, the flexible display screen 3 is housed and covered on the outside of the flexible display screen 3, thus providing protection.

[0033] In an optional embodiment, both ends of the arc-shaped cover 27 are connected to mounting sleeves 29 that are sleeved on the outer wall of the rotating shaft 5 via connecting plates 28. The mounting sleeves 29 are provided with second screw holes 30, and second screws 31 are threaded onto the inner side of the second screw holes 30. The bottom outer wall of the housing 1 is provided with a rotating groove 32 that is slidably connected to the connecting plates 28. The arc-shaped cover 27 is mounted on the rotating shaft 5 via the mounting sleeves 29, the second screw holes 30, and the second screws 31. When the flexible display screen 3 is unfolded, the arc-shaped cover 27 can rotate and detach from the flexible display screen 3. When the flexible display screen 3 is stored, the arc-shaped cover 27 can rotate and cover the outside of the flexible display screen 3 for easy use. Setting the rotating groove 32 on the bottom outer wall of the housing 1 can reduce the entry of dust and impurities.

[0034] In this embodiment, as Figures 1-6 As shown, the working process of a flexible foldable smart display screen provided in this embodiment is as follows:

[0035] Step 1: When in use, the control panel 33 controls the first motor 4 and the electric telescopic rod 6 to start simultaneously. The first motor 4 drives the rotating shaft 5 to rotate in the forward direction, and at the same time the electric telescopic rod 6 extends, driving the flexible plate 2 to unfold, thereby enabling the flexible display screen 3 to unfold. At the same time, the rotation of the rotating shaft 5 drives the arc-shaped cover 27 to rotate to the bottom of the housing 1.

[0036] Step 2: After unfolding to a suitable viewing angle, turn off the first motor 4 and the electric telescopic rod 6, and turn on the flexible display screen 3 to view the screen;

[0037] Step 3: After use, the control panel 33 controls the first motor 4 and the electric telescopic rod 6 to start simultaneously. The first motor 4 drives the rotating shaft 5 to rotate in the opposite direction, and the electric telescopic rod 6 retracts, causing the flexible plate 2 to adhere to the arc surface of the housing 1. At the same time, the rotating shaft 5 rotates, causing the arc cover 27 to rotate to the outside of the flexible display screen 3 above the housing 1.
