The touch panel 1071 may include two parts: a touch detection device and a touch controller. Optionally, the touch detection device detects the user's touch orientation, detects the signal brought by the touch operation, and transmits the signal to the touch controller; the touch controller receives the touch information from the touch detection device, converts it into the touch point coordinates, and then sends it to the processor 110, and can receive and execute the command sent by the processor 110.

[0053] The mobile terminal 100 may also include a power supply 111 (such as a battery) for supplying power to various components. Preferably, the power supply 111 may be logically connected to the processor 110 via a power management system, thereby implementing functions such as charging, discharging, and power consumption management through the power management system.

[0061] Although the above introduction takes the LTE system as an example, those skilled in the art should know that the present application is not only applicable to the LTE system, but also to other wireless communication systems, such as GSM, CDMA2000, WCDMA, TD-SCDMA, 5G and future new network systems (such as 6G), etc., without limitation here.

[0062] Based on the hardware structure of the above-mentioned smart terminal and the communication network system, various embodiments related to the smart terminal of this application are proposed.

[0063] The screen of the above-mentioned smart terminal is a folding screen, and the first screen and the second screen of the folding screen are connected together by a folding mechanism, and the first screen and the second screen are unfolded or closed by the folding mechanism. In order to prevent the first screen and the second screen from shaking in a closed state, a locking mechanism is provided to lock the first screen and the second screen in a closed state. In some embodiments, the locking mechanism is a magnetic locking structure, which is simple and easy to implement. For example, after the first screen and the second screen are folded, the magnetic suction parts on the two screens attract each other to achieve locking. However, the adsorption force of the magnetic suction parts is strong. When the user needs to unfold the first screen and the second screen, he needs to hold the smart terminal with both hands, and apply a force greater than the magnetic suction force and the locking force of the rotating shaft by hand to unfold the first and second screens. The user needs to operate with both hands, which is laborious and inconvenient to operate. It is difficult to operate with one hand, and the user has a poor user experience.

[0064] Based on this, the folding screen provided in the present application can first provide a force to open the first screen and the second screen at an angle when the user needs to unfold the first screen and the second screen, thereby reducing the magnetic force of the magnetic suction part. At this time, the user can easily unfold the first screen and the second screen, and it is also convenient to operate with one hand.

[0065] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 The folding screen includes a first screen 10 and a second screen 20, and the first screen 10 and the second screen 20 are foldable. The first screen 10 includes a first auxiliary member 30, and the second screen 20 includes a second auxiliary member 40. The first auxiliary member 30 and the second auxiliary member 40 are arranged opposite to each other, and the first auxiliary member 30 and the second auxiliary member 40 cooperate to assist the first screen 10 and the second screen 20 to be closed or unfolded.

[0066] Optionally, the first auxiliary member 30 and the second auxiliary member 40 include a first state and a second state. In the first state, the first auxiliary member 30 and the second auxiliary member 40 attract each other. Thus, when the first screen 10 and the second screen 20 are folded, the first auxiliary member 30 and the second auxiliary member 40 provide suction force for the first screen 10 and the second screen 20 to fix the first screen 10 and the second screen 20. In the second state, the first auxiliary member 30 and the second auxiliary member 40 repel each other. Thus, when the first screen 10 and the second screen 20 are in a closed state, the first auxiliary member 30 and the second auxiliary member 40 provide repulsive force for the first screen 10 and the second screen 20, so that the first screen 10 and the second screen 20 are unfolded at a preset angle. When the user needs to close the first screen 10 and the second screen 20, the first auxiliary member 30 and the second auxiliary member 40 switch to the first state. When the first screen 10 and the second screen 20 are folded to a preset position, the first auxiliary member 30 and the second auxiliary member 40 attract each other, and the first screen 10 and the second screen 20 are closed and fixed. When the user needs to unfold the first screen 10 and the second screen 20, the first auxiliary part 30 and the second auxiliary part 40 are switched to the second state. The first auxiliary part 30 and the second auxiliary part 40 are mutually exclusive, and the first screen 10 and the second screen 20 are unfolded to a preset angle. In the absence of the suction force of the first auxiliary part 30 and the second auxiliary part 40, and the first screen 10 and the second screen 20 are unfolded to the preset angle, the force of the rotating shaft is reduced, and the user can easily unfold the first screen 10 and the second screen 20.

[0067] Optionally, in this embodiment, the first auxiliary component 30 and the second auxiliary component 40 are implemented in the following ways, but not limited to:

[0068] As in the first implementation, the first auxiliary part 30 and the second auxiliary part 40 are both magnets, wherein the first auxiliary part 30 and the second auxiliary part 40 are arranged through the positions of the magnetic poles so that the magnetic poles of the two relative magnets are opposite in the first state and the magnetic poles of the two relative magnets are the same in the second state. In this way, in the first state, the first auxiliary part 30 and the second auxiliary part 40 attract each other, and in the second state, the first auxiliary part 30 and the second auxiliary part 40 repel each other.

[0069] For example, in the second implementation, the first auxiliary member 30 and the second auxiliary member 40 are both electromagnets, and the magnetic poles of the electromagnets change after the energizing direction is changed. Therefore, by switching the energizing direction of the electromagnets, in the first state, the magnetic poles of the first auxiliary member 30 and the second auxiliary member 40 are opposite and attract each other; in the second state, the magnetic poles of the first auxiliary member 30 and the second auxiliary member 40 are the same and repel each other. This implementation is relatively simple and easy to implement.

[0070] This embodiment takes the first implementation mode as an example to explain:

[0071] The first auxiliary member 30 includes at least two first magnets 31, and the second auxiliary member 40 includes at least two second magnets 32; in the first state, the magnetic poles of the first magnet 31 and the second magnet 32 ​​are opposite, and in the second state, the magnetic poles of the first magnet 31 and the second magnet 32 ​​are the same. When the magnetic poles are opposite, the first magnet 31 and the second magnet 32 ​​attract each other, so that the first screen 10 and the second screen 20 are attracted and fixed. When the magnetic poles are the same, the first magnet 31 and the second magnet 32 ​​repel each other, so that the first screen 10 and the second screen 20 repel each other and unfold, and the first screen 10 and the second screen 20 are opened to a preset angle.

[0072] The first auxiliary component 30 and the second auxiliary component 40 can be switched to different states by the following configuration:

[0073] As in the first implementation, at least two of the first magnets 31 have opposite magnetic poles. According to the magnetic poles of the first magnets 31 , the second magnets 32 are configured to have opposite magnetic poles to the corresponding first magnets 31 , so that the first magnets 31 and the second magnets 32 attract each other.

[0074] In this implementation, the relative movement of the first magnet 31 and the second magnet 32 ​​is achieved by moving the first magnet 31 or the second magnet 32 ​​so that the first magnet 31 and the second magnet 32 ​​with the same magnetic poles are located at relative positions, and the first magnet 31 and the second magnet 32 ​​repel each other.

[0075] For example, the first auxiliary member 30 includes three first magnets 31, and the second auxiliary member 40 includes three second magnets 32. The first first magnet 31 corresponds to the first second magnet 32, the second first magnet 31 corresponds to the second second magnet 32, and the third first magnet 31 corresponds to the third second magnet 32. The first first magnet 31 and the first second magnet 32 ​​have opposite magnetic poles, the second first magnet 31 and the second second magnet 32 ​​have opposite magnetic poles, and the third first magnet 31 and the third second magnet 32 ​​also have opposite magnetic poles.

[0076] Optionally, at least two of the first magnets 31 are arranged in an order of opposite magnetic poles, for example, the first first magnet 31 and the second first magnet 31 have opposite magnetic poles, or the second first magnet 31 and the third first magnet 31 have opposite magnetic poles.

[0077] The first magnet 31 and the second magnet 32 ​​are arranged to be relatively movable, and when the three first magnets 31 and the three second magnets 32 correspond one to one, the first auxiliary member 30 and the second auxiliary member 40 are in the first state. After the first magnet 31 and the second magnet 32 ​​move relatively, the positions of the second first magnet 31 and the first second magnet 32 ​​correspond, and the positions of the third first magnet 31 and the second second magnet 32 ​​correspond, and the first auxiliary member 30 and the second auxiliary member 40 are in the second state. At this time, at least one of the first magnets 31 and the corresponding second magnet 32 ​​have the same magnetic pole, so that the first magnet 31 and the second magnet 32 ​​repel each other (the second first magnet 31 and the first second magnet 32 ​​have the same magnetic pole, or the third first magnet 31 and the second second magnet 32 ​​have the same magnetic pole).

[0078] This implementation is based on the setting of the polarity and position of the magnets, and by moving the relative magnets, the first magnet 31 and the second magnet 32 ​​are switched from the first state of mutual attraction to the second state of mutual repulsion, so that the first screen 10 and the second screen 20 are attracted and fixed when closed, and mutually repulsively unfolded when unfolded.

[0079] Optionally, the magnetic poles of adjacent first magnets 31 are opposite. After the first magnet 31 and the second magnet 32 ​​move relative to each other by one position, the magnetic poles of the first magnet 31 and the corresponding second magnet 32 ​​are the same, so that all the first magnets 31 and the second magnets 32 repel each other, thereby increasing the force of the mutual repulsion and making it easy for the first screen 10 and the second screen 20 to unfold to a preset angle.

[0080] Optionally, in some embodiments, the number of magnets of the first auxiliary member 30 and the number of magnets of the second auxiliary member 40 may be different, so that the mutual attraction force of the first auxiliary member 30 and the second auxiliary member 40 in the first state and the mutual repulsion force in the second state can be balanced. For example, the first auxiliary member 30 includes four first magnets 31, and the magnetic poles of the adjacent first magnets 31 of each first magnet 31 are opposite; the second auxiliary member 40 includes five second magnets 32, and the four adjacent second magnets 32 are opposite to the four first magnets 31 one by one and have opposite magnetic poles.

[0081] In the first state, the four first magnets 31 and the four adjacent second magnets 32 are opposite to each other, and the magnetic poles are opposite. In the second state, the first magnets 31 and the second magnets 32 move relative to each other, and the four first magnets 31 and the other four adjacent second magnets 32 are opposite to each other, and the magnetic poles are the same. In this way, in the first state and the second state, force is provided to the first screen 10 and the second screen 20 through the mutual attraction or repulsion between the four magnets, so that the attraction or repulsion between the first screen 10 and the second screen 20 is balanced, making the folding screen feel better.

[0082] Optionally, in this implementation, the first magnet 31 and the second magnet 32 ​​are Halbach array magnet groups.

[0083] Optionally, the relative movement of the first magnet 31 and the second magnet 32 ​​can be triggered by the user. When the user wants to turn on the mobile phone, the user first triggers the relative movement of the first magnet 31 and the second magnet 32 ​​to switch the first magnet 31 and the second magnet 32 ​​to the second state. The first magnet 31 and the second magnet 32 ​​repel each other, so that the first screen 10 and the second screen 20 are unfolded to a preset angle. At this time, the user can easily unfold the first screen 10 and the second screen 20 with one hand.

[0084] In this embodiment, a triggering unit 50 is provided on the folding screen to trigger the relative movement of the first magnet 31 and the second magnet 32. For example, the folding screen further includes a triggering unit 50, the triggering unit 50 is connected to the first magnet 31 or the second magnet 32, and the triggering unit 50 triggers the movement of the first magnet 31 or the second magnet 32, so that the first magnet 31 and the second magnet 32 ​​with the same magnetic poles are located at relative positions.

[0085] Optionally, the trigger part 50 may be an electric button, such as driving the push rod 52 through a circuit to push the first magnet 31 or the first magnet 31 to move. Alternatively, the trigger part 50 may also be a mechanical trigger button, such as the trigger part 50 includes a button 51, a push rod 52 and an elastic reset member 53, one end of the push rod 52 is connected to the button 51, and the other end is connected to the first magnet 31 or the second magnet 32, one end of the elastic reset member 53 abuts against the housing of the folding screen, and the other end is connected to the first magnet 31 or the second magnet 32, and the elastic direction of the elastic reset member 53 is opposite to the thrust direction of the push rod 52. The user pushes the button 51, the button 51 pushes the push rod 52 to move, and the push rod 52 drives the first magnet 31 or the second magnet 32 ​​to move, so that the relative position of the first magnet 31 and the second magnet 32 ​​changes, so that the first magnet 31 and the second magnet 32 ​​switch to the second state, and the first screen 10 and the second screen 20 are unfolded to a preset angle under the action of the mutual repulsion force. When the user releases the button 51, or the button 51 is pushed in the reverse direction, the elastic reset member 53 returns to a free state, and the elastic reset member 53 pushes the first magnet 31 or the second magnet 32 ​​to return to its original position, so that the relative position of the first magnet 31 and the second magnet 32 ​​is restored to its original position, so that the first magnet 31 and the second magnet 32 ​​are switched to the first state, and when the first screen 10 and the second screen 20 are folded to the preset position, they are closed and fixed under the action of the mutual attraction force.

[0086] In this embodiment, by setting a magnet group in the folding screen and arranging different magnetic poles of the magnet group, when the first screen 10 and the second screen 20 are closed, the magnet group provides a mutual attraction force to fix the first screen 10 and the second screen 20, and when the first screen 10 and the second screen 20 need to be unfolded, a mutual repulsion force is provided to unfold the first screen 10 and the second screen 20 to a preset angle, reducing the locking force, so that the user can easily unfold the first screen 10 and the second screen 20, and realize one-handed operation, which is simple and convenient to operate. In addition, the folding screen has a simple structure, is easy to implement, occupies a small volume, and can realize an ultra-thin design of the screen.

[0087] Optionally, the first magnet 31 and the second magnet 32 ​​may be arranged in the following manners in addition to the above-mentioned manners:

[0088] As another implementation, at least two of the first magnets 31 have the same magnetic pole, and the magnetic pole of the second magnet 32 ​​is opposite to the magnetic pole of the first magnet 31 .

[0089] In this implementation, the magnetic poles of the plurality of first magnets 31 and second magnets 32 are not limited. For example, the magnetic poles of the first magnets 31 may be the same or different; or the magnetic poles of the second magnets 32 may be the same or different, and the magnetic poles of the first magnets 31 and the corresponding second magnets 32 may be opposite.

[0090] In this embodiment, the folding screen further includes a triggering unit 50, and the triggering unit 50 is connected to a flipping mechanism. The first magnet 31 or the second magnet 32 ​​is arranged on the flipping mechanism. The triggering unit 50 triggers the flipping mechanism to flip, driving the first magnet 31 or the second magnet 32 ​​to flip, so that the magnetic poles of the first magnet 31 and the second magnet 32 ​​are the same. That is, in this embodiment, the first magnet 31 or the second magnet 32 ​​includes two magnetic poles, and the two magnetic poles are different. When the first magnet 31 or the second magnet 32 ​​is flipped, the first magnet 31 and the second magnet 32, which are relatively located, switch from opposite magnetic poles to the same magnetic poles. In this way, the first magnet 31 and the second magnet 32 ​​switch from mutual attraction to mutual repulsion.

[0091] For example, in the first state, the first magnet 31 and the second magnet 32 ​​correspond one to one and have opposite magnetic poles. In the second state, the first magnet 31 and the second magnet 32 ​​correspond one to one and have the same magnetic poles. When the first screen 10 and the second screen 20 are closed, the first magnet 31 and the second magnet 32 ​​are attracted to each other and fixed. When the user needs to unfold the first screen 10 and the second screen 20, the trigger unit 50 is triggered to flip the first magnet 31 or the second magnet 32, so that the first magnet 31 and the second magnet 32 ​​repel each other. The first screen 10 and the second screen 20 are first unfolded to a preset angle, and then the first screen 10 and the second screen 20 are easily unfolded.

[0092] Optionally, in this embodiment, the flipping mechanism occupies thickness space but does not occupy length space, which can reduce the length of the folding screen.

[0093] Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, in order to facilitate user operation, the trigger unit 50 is set at a position less than or equal to a preset distance from the hand-held position of the folding screen. In this way, when the user holds the folding screen, the trigger unit 50 can be easily triggered, and the folding screen can be easily unfolded by one-handed operation. Optionally, the preset distance is less than the length of a finger, so that the user's finger can trigger the trigger unit 50.
