The hinge includes a parallel left axis 31 and a right axis 32 and a left connecting arm 41 and a right connecting arm 42, and the left connecting arm 41 and the right connecting arm 42 are connected to the left axis 31 and the right axis 32 respectively, and a synchronous reverse rotation connection structure can be provided between the left connecting arm 41 and the right connecting arm 42, and a resistance torque output structure can also be provided on the axis.

[0034] The two ends of the flexible screen 5 are respectively connected to the left bracket 1 and the right bracket 2, which can be directly connected or connected via an intermediate structure. In this embodiment, the right bracket 2 is a retractable bracket, and its retracting direction is perpendicular to the rotation axis of the hinge, so that the retractable bracket constitutes the retractable bracket of the flexible screen 5. The flexible screen 5 is arranged on the outer surface of the mobile phone, becoming an outward folding flexible screen mobile phone.

[0035] The left bracket 1 and the right bracket 2 are both provided with flexible screen support plates. The right bracket 2 serves as a retractable bracket, and the flexible screen support plate provided thereon is slidably matched with the flexible screen 5 .

[0036] The mobile phone is provided with a central connection seat 6, the central connection seat 6 is provided with the hinge, and the shafts 31, 32 are fixedly connected or rotatably connected with the central connection seat 6. A plurality of parallel rotating support rods 7 are provided on the outer side of the central connection seat 6. When the mobile phone is folded and closed, the plurality of rotating support rods 7 can be fitted into a support portion for the curved portion of the flexible screen 5 under the constraint of the curved flexible screen. When the mobile phone is unfolded and flattened, the plurality of rotating support rods 7 can be fitted into a central support portion for supporting the flattened flexible screen under the constraint of the flattened flexible screen. The flexible screen 5 is slidably matched with the central support rods 7.

[0037] The retractable bracket includes a rotating connecting frame 21 and a sliding frame 22. The rotating connecting frame 21 is connected to the right connecting arm 42 of the hinge. The sliding frame 22 is slidably connected to the rotating connecting frame 21, which can be formed by the cooperation of the guide rail and the slider. A flexible screen U-shaped bending guide shaft 221 is set on the side of the sliding frame 22 away from the rotating connecting frame 21, so that the flexible screen 5 is arranged in two layers in the retractable bracket, and the flexible screen 5 is connected to the movable mechanism or elastic mechanism 8 on the rotating connecting frame at this end of the retractable bracket. Alternatively, a flexible screen scroll is set on the side of the sliding frame where the U-shaped bending guide shaft 221 is set.

[0038] Furthermore, a sliding limiting structure 23 is provided between the sliding frame and the rotating connecting frame.

[0039] Example 2, reference Figure 11-Figure 14 , please also refer to Figure 1-Figure 10 .

[0040] In this embodiment, the hinge is set as a single-axis hinge. The reference numeral 90 is the axis, and the hinge includes a left connecting arm and a right connecting arm, which are connected to the axis 90. The right bracket 2 is a retractable bracket, and its retractable direction is perpendicular to the rotation axis of the hinge, so that the retractable bracket constitutes the retractable bracket of the flexible screen 5. The flexible screen 5 is set on the outer surface of the mobile phone, becoming an outward folding flexible screen mobile phone. The result of the retractable bracket is the same as that of Example 1.

[0041] Currently, the hinge structure of a folding screen is complex. This embodiment can utilize the telescopic function of the screen to simplify the structure of the drive shaft (single-axis implementation), thereby greatly reducing costs.
