[0002] An electronic device is provided with a rotating structure so that a first body and a second body of the electronic device can rotate relative to each other to achieve folding or unfolding.

[0003] The radial dimension of the rotating structure is large, resulting in a large space occupied by the electronic device. Summary of the Utility Model

[0005] In a first aspect, the present disclosure provides a rotating structure, which may include: a base and two sets of rotating components. The two sets of rotating components are respectively rotatably connected to the base to be able to adjust the angle between the two sets of rotating components.

[0036] First aspect

[0037] The present disclosure provides a rotating structure. Refer to Figures 1 to 10As shown, the rotating structure may include: a base 10 and two sets of rotating components 20. The two sets of rotating components 20 are respectively rotatably connected to the base 10 to be able to adjust the angle between the two sets of rotating components 20. At least one set of rotating components 20 includes: a first part 201 and a second part 202. The first part 201 is rotatably connected to the base 10, and the second part 202 is movably connected to the first part 201. Wherein, the second part 202 includes: a first shielding member 203 and a second shielding member 204. The first shielding member 203 and the second shielding member 204 are respectively movably connected to the first part 201. During the rotation of the first part 201 relative to the base 10, the overlapping area between the first shielding member 203 and the second shielding member 204 changes. Wherein, when the rotation of the first part 201 relative to the base 10 stops such that the angle between the second part 202 and the other set of rotating components 20 is the first angle, the overlapping area between the first shielding member 203 and the second shielding member 204 is the first area. When the rotation of the first part 201 relative to the base 10 stops such that the angle between the second part 202 and the other set of rotating components 20 is the second angle, the overlapping area between the first shielding member 203 and the second shielding member 204 is the second area. The first angle is different from the second angle, and the first area is different from the second area.

[0038] The base 10 may extend along the axis direction of the rotating structure. The two sets of rotating components 20 are respectively rotatably connected to the base 10, and the two sets of rotating components 20 are respectively connected to the first body and the second body of the electronic device, so that the angle between the first body and the second body can be changed by the rotation of the two sets of rotating components 20 relative to the base 10.

[0039] Among the two sets of rotating components 20, it may be that one set includes the first part 201 and the second part 202, or both sets respectively include the first part 201 and the second part 202. In the case where both sets of rotating components 20 respectively include the first part 201 and the second part 202, the two sets of rotating components 20 may be symmetric or asymmetric with respect to the base 10. For the convenience of description, in the following, the case where the two sets of rotating components 20 are symmetric with respect to the base 10 is taken as an example, and when describing one set of rotating components 20, the rotating component 20 connected to the first body is described. The first part 201 and the second part 202 are arranged on one side of the base 10 and face each other. The first part 201 is rotatably connected to the base 10, and the first shielding member 203 and the second shielding member 204 of the second part 202 are respectively movably connected to the first part 201. Thus, during the rotation of the first part 201 relative to the base 10, the first shielding member 203 and the second shielding member 204 respectively have movement trajectories relative to the first part 201, and the movement trajectories of the two can overlap, and at different angles of rotation of the first part 201 relative to the base 10, the overlapping area is different.

[0040] In one example, the electronic device is a folding-screen mobile phone, which includes a first body and a second body. The first body has a first display screen and a first back shell that are arranged back to back with each other, and the second body has a second display screen and a second back shell that are arranged back to back with each other. The first body and the second body are rotatably connected through a rotating structure, so that the first body and the second body can rotate and stop at the open state where the first display screen and the second display screen are coplanar, can also rotate and stop at the closed state where the first back shell and the second back shell are coplanar, and can also rotate and stop at any angle between the open state and the closed state. The rotating structure may include: a base 10 and two sets of rotating components 20. The two sets of rotating components 20 are respectively rotatably connected to the base 10 and are respectively connected to the first body and the second body, so as to adjust the angle between the two sets of rotating components 20 during the rotation of the two sets of rotating components 20 relative to the base 10, thereby realizing the change of the angle between the first body and the second body. The two sets of rotating components 20 are symmetrically arranged with respect to the base 10. The rotating component 20 connected to the first body may include: a first part 201 and a second part 202. The first part 201 is rotatably connected to the base 10, and the second part 202 is opposite to one side of the first part 201. The second part 202 includes: a first shielding member 203 and a second shielding member 204. The first shielding member 203 is opposite to the side surface of the first part 201 close to the base 10, and the second shielding member 204 is opposite to the side surface of the first part 201 far from the base 10. The first shielding member 203 and the second shielding member 204 are respectively movably connected to the first part 201 and form part of the first back shell, and a battery shell forming part of the first back shell is provided at one end of the second shielding member 204 far from the first shielding member 203. Wherein, during the rotation of the first part 201 relative to the base 10, the overlapping area between the first shielding member 203 and the second shielding member 204 changes, and the smaller the angle between the first back shell of the first body and the second back shell of the second body, the larger the overlapping area. So that the lengths of the first shielding member 203 and the second shielding member 204 along the axis direction perpendicular to the rotating structure (i.e., the radial dimension of the rotating structure) are smaller, thereby reducing the volume occupied by the rotating structure in the electronic device.

[0041] In this embodiment, the rotation structure includes: a base 10 and two sets of rotation components 20. The two sets of rotation components 20 are respectively rotationally connected to the base 10. When the two sets of rotation components 20 are respectively connected to the first body and the second body of the electronic device, the angle between the first body and the second body can be adjusted by the rotation of the two sets of rotation components 20 relative to the base 10, so that the electronic device can be switched between a folded state (for example, the state where the first back shell of the first body and the second back shell of the second body are attached to each other) and an open state (for example, the state where the angle between the first back shell of the first body and the second back shell of the second body is greater than zero and less than or equal to 180 degrees). Any one set of rotation components 20 includes a first part 201 rotationally connected to the base 10 and a second part 202 movably connected to the first part 201. In the process of the first part 201 rotating relative to the base 10 to reduce the angle between the first back shell of the first body and the second back shell of the second body, the first shielding member 203 and the second shielding member 204 on the second part 202 can move relative to the first part 201 respectively, so that the overlapping area between the first shielding member 203 and the second shielding member 204 increases. Furthermore, when the electronic device is in the folded state, the space occupied by the first shielding member 203 and the second shielding member 204 in the direction perpendicular to the axis of the rotation structure (i.e., the radial dimension of the rotation structure) can be reduced, so that the battery size can be increased to achieve an increase in battery capacity. In addition, the first shielding member 203 and the second shielding member 204 in the rotation structure can form part of the back shell of the electronic device, which can reduce the material of the back shell and lower the manufacturing cost of the electronic device.

[0042] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 2 , Figures 4 to 7 the first part 201 includes: a first swing arm 205 and a limiting member 206. One end of the first swing arm 205 is rotationally connected to the base 10, and at least part of the other end extends into the limiting member 206, and the first swing arm 205 can slide relative to the limiting member 206 during the rotation of the first swing arm 205 relative to the base 10; both the first shielding member 203 and the second shielding member 204 are opposite to one side of the first swing arm 205. One end of the first shielding member 203 is opposite to one side of the base 10 and can rotate relative to the base 10. The other end of the first shielding member 203 is slidably connected to the limiting member 206 and can reciprocally slide between the end of the limiting member 206 close to the base 10 and the end away from the base 10. One end of the second shielding member 204 corresponds to the other end of the first shielding member 203. The other end of the second shielding member 204 is rotationally connected to the other end of the first swing arm 205 and is slidably connected to the limiting member 206.

[0043] One end of the first swing arm 205 is rotatably connected to the base 10 to enable the rotational connection between the rotating assembly 20 and the base 10, and the other end extends into the limiting member 206. During the rotation of the first swing arm 205 relative to the base 10, the first swing arm 205 slides along the limiting member 206, so that the angle between the limiting member 206 and another rotating assembly 20 (such as the second part 202 of another set of rotating assemblies 20) can be changed. After the rotating structure is arranged in the electronic device, the limiting member 206 can abut against the surface of the first display screen relative to the first back shell to support the first display screen.

[0044] There may be a physical connection between the first shielding member 203 and the base 10, and the physical connection enables the first shielding member 203 to rotate relative to the base 10. For example, a part of the first shielding member 203 is inserted into the through hole of the base 10 or a part of the base 10 is inserted into the through hole of the first shielding member 203, so that one end of the first shielding member 203 can rotate relative to the base 10; there may also be no physical connection between the first shielding member 203 and the base 10. For example, the rotating structure further includes a fixing member 207. The fixing member 207 is opposite to the base 10, and a first arc surface 222 and a second arc surface 223 are respectively arranged on both sides of the fixing member 207. The two rotating assemblies 20 are respectively provided with a third arc surface adapted to the first arc surface 222 and a fourth arc surface adapted to the second arc surface 223. When the two rotating assemblies 20 rotate relative to each other, the third arc surface rotates along the first arc surface 222, and the fourth arc surface rotates along the second arc surface 223. The first shielding member 203 is provided with a third arc surface. In this way, one end of the first shielding member 203 is rotatably connected to the fixing member 207 corresponding to the base 10, and the rotation of one end of the first shielding member 203 relative to one side of the base 10 is realized. The other end of the first shielding member 203 is slidably connected to the limiting member 206 and can reciprocate between one end of the limiting member 206 close to the base 10 and one end far from the base 10. In this way, during the rotation of the first swing arm 205 relative to the base 10, the sliding connection between the limiting member 206 and the first swing arm 205 enables the limiting member 206 to rotate in the direction close to another rotating assembly 20, and the sliding connection between the limiting member 206 and the first shielding member 203 can guide and limit the rotation of the first shielding member 203.

[0045] One end of the second shielding member 204 corresponds to the other end of the first shielding member 203. In this way, the first shielding member 203 and the second shielding member 204 can be coplanar to form a part of the first back shell of the first body. The other end of the second shielding member 204 is rotatably connected to the other end of the first swing arm 205 and slidably connected to the limiting member 206. In this way, during the process of the first swing arm 205 rotating to reduce the angle between the second parts 202 of the two rotating assemblies 20, the second shielding member 204 rotates relative to the other end of the first swing arm 205 and is slid by the limiting member 206 to push the second shielding member 204 closer to the second part 202 of the other set of rotating assemblies 20. And due to the sliding connection between the second shielding member 204 and the limiting member 206, the second shielding member 204 is subjected to a pulling force in the direction close to the base 10, thereby increasing the overlapping area between the first shielding member 203 and the second shielding member 204.

[0046] In this embodiment, the first swing arm 205 of the first part 201 and the first shielding member 203 of the second part 202 can rotate relative to the base 10, and the limiting member 206 is slidably connected to the first swing arm 205 and the first shielding member 203 respectively, so as to relatively limit the rotation of the first swing arm 205 and the first shielding member 203, thereby making the rotation between the first part 201 and the second part 202 smoother. In addition, one end of the second shielding member 204 corresponds to the other end of the first shielding member 203, and the other end is rotatably connected to the other end of the first swing arm 205 and slidably connected to the limiting member 206. During the process of the first swing arm 205 and the first shielding member 203 rotating relative to the base 10 to approach the second part 202 of the other set of rotating assemblies 20, the first swing arm 205 and the limiting member 206 cooperate to drive the second shielding member 204 to move closer to the second part 202 of the other set of rotating assemblies 20, and the overlapping area with the first shielding member 203 increases, thereby reducing the volume occupied by the rotating structure in the electronic device.

[0047] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 2 、 Figures 4 to 9 As shown, the limiting member 206 is provided with a first sliding groove 208, and the two ends of the first sliding groove 208 respectively correspond to one end of the limiting member 206 close to the base 10 and one end far from the base 10; the other end of the first shielding member 203 is bent towards the direction close to the first swing arm 205 to form a first connection end 209, and the first connection end 209 is provided with a first sliding block 210, and the first sliding block 210 is located in the first sliding groove 208 and can slide along the first sliding groove 208. In this way, the first sliding block 210 of the first shielding member 203 slides along the first sliding groove 208 of the limiting member 206, so that the rotation of the first shielding member 203 is smoother.

[0048] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 2 、Figures 4 to 7 As shown, one end of the second shielding member 204 is provided with a guiding inclined surface 211. When the first part 201 and the second part 202 rotate synchronously relative to the base 10 to reduce the angle between the second part 202 and the other set of rotating components 20, the guiding inclined surface 211 moves along the side of the first shielding member 203 facing away from the first swing arm 205 towards the first shielding member 203 to partially overlap with the first shielding member 203. That is to say, during the rotation of the two sets of rotating components 20 relative to the base 10 to reduce the angle between the second parts 202 of the two sets of rotating components 20, the guiding inclined surface 211 moves along the end of the first shielding member 203 away from the base 10, so as to reduce the probability of deviating from the preset movement trajectory during the movement of the second shielding member 204 relative to the first shielding member 203. For example, the preset movement trajectory is that the second shielding member 204 moves to the side of the first shielding member 203 facing away from the first swing arm 205 to change the overlapping area between the first shielding member 203 and the second shielding member 204. If the guiding inclined surface 211 is not provided, there may be a probability that due to impact on the electronic device, some components undergo a small displacement, and then the second shielding member 204 overlaps with the side of the first shielding member 203 close to the first swing arm 205, resulting in the first swing arm 205 or other structures being damaged.

[0049] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 2 、 Figures 4 to 7 As shown, the first part 201 may further include: a first connecting arm 212. One end of the first connecting arm 212 extends into the other end of the first swing arm 205 and can rotate relative to the other end of the first swing arm 205. The other end of the first connecting arm 212 is rotatably connected to the side of the second shielding member 204 corresponding to the first swing arm 205. First sliding parts 2051 are provided on both sides of the first swing arm 205 corresponding to the first connecting arm 212. The limiting member 206 is provided with second sliding parts 2061 slidably connected to the first sliding parts 2051. Thus, during the rotation of the first part 201 relative to the base 10 to reduce the angle between the second parts 202 of the two sets of rotating components 20, the first swing arm 205, the first connecting arm 212 and the second shielding member 204 rotate relative to each other and approach the second part 202 of the other set of rotating components 20. And due to the arrangement of the first sliding parts 2051 and the second sliding parts 2061, the rotation of the first swing arm 205, the first connecting arm 212 and the second shielding member 204 is smoother.

[0050] For example, referring to Figure 4 and Figure 9As shown, a first connecting shaft 213 may be provided on the first connecting arm 212. Both ends of the first connecting shaft 213 may be respectively inserted into two opposite first connecting holes of the first swing arm 205 to realize the rotation of the first connecting arm 212 relative to the first swing arm 205. A second connecting shaft 214 may be provided on the second shielding member 204. The second connecting shaft 214 may be inserted into a second connecting hole on the first connecting arm 212 to realize the rotation of the first connecting arm 212 relative to the second shielding member 204.

[0051] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 2 、 Figure 4 、 Figures 5 to 7 and Figure 9 As shown, a third sliding portion 215 is provided on one side of the second shielding member 204 corresponding to the first swing arm 205. The limiting member 206 is provided with a fourth sliding portion 216 slidably connected to the third sliding portion 215. Thus, during the movement of the limiting member 206 relative to the base 10, the second shielding member 204 slides relative to the limiting member 206, so as to limit the movement of the second shielding member 204 and make the displacement process of the second shielding member 204 smoother.

[0052] Among the third sliding portion 215 and the fourth sliding portion 216, one may be an orbit and the other may be a sliding structure adapted to the orbit. For example, referring to Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the third sliding portion 215 is plate-shaped, and the fourth sliding portion 216 is a strip-shaped orbit adapted to the third sliding portion 215.

[0053] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 1 to 7 and Figure 9As shown, the base 10 is provided with a first arc-shaped guide groove 217; the limiting member 206 is provided with a second arc-shaped guide groove 218; the rotating assembly 20 further includes: a shielding plate 219, the shielding plate 219 is disposed between the base 10 and the limiting member 206 and at least shields the first swing arm 205, and two ends of the shielding plate 219 are respectively provided with a first arc-shaped arm 220 slidably connected to the first arc-shaped guide groove 217 and a second arc-shaped arm 221 slidably connected to the second arc-shaped guide groove 218. Or rather, the shielding plate 219 connects the base 10 and the limiting member 206 to cover the space between the base 10 and the limiting member 206, and shields the first swing arm 205 between the base 10 and the limiting member 206, thereby improving the external visual effect of the rotating structure. The sliding connection between the shielding plate 219 and the base 10 and the limiting member 206 is achieved through the sliding connection between the first arc-shaped guide groove 217 and the first arc-shaped arm 220 and the sliding connection between the second arc-shaped guide groove 218 and the second arc-shaped arm 221, and the arc-shaped sliding connection makes the sliding process smoother. In addition, after the rotating structure is disposed on the electronic device, the surface of the shielding plate 219 facing away from the first swing arm 205 can abut against one side of the first display screen of the first body corresponding to the first back shell to support the first display screen.

[0054] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 1 to 7 and Figure 10 As shown, two sets of rotating assemblies 20 are symmetric with respect to the base 10; the rotating structure further includes: a fixing member 207, the fixing member 207 is opposite to the base 10, and two sides of the fixing member 207 are respectively provided with a first arc-shaped surface 222 and a second arc-shaped surface 223, and two rotating assemblies 20 are respectively provided with a third arc-shaped surface adapted to the first arc-shaped surface 222 and a fourth arc-shaped surface adapted to the second arc-shaped surface 223; when the two rotating assemblies 20 rotate relative to each other, the third arc-shaped surface rotates along the first arc-shaped surface 222, and the fourth arc-shaped surface rotates along the second arc-shaped surface 223; wherein, the first shielding member 203 is provided with the third arc-shaped surface. Thus, during the process of the two rotating assemblies 20 rotating relative to the base 10, the third arc-shaped surface rotates along the first arc-shaped surface 222, and the fourth arc-shaped surface rotates along the second arc-shaped surface 223, thereby making the rotation process of the two rotating assemblies 20 relative to the base 10 smoother.

[0055] Here, the fixing member 207 and the base 10 can be integrally formed and fixedly connected, or can be detachably connected by screws or other means, or can be connected in other ways, which are not specifically limited herein.

[0056] In a second aspect

[0057] The present disclosure also provides an electronic device, which may include: a first body, a second body, and a rotating structure. The rotating structure includes: a base 10 and two sets of rotating components 20.

At least one set of rotating components 20 includes: a first part 201 and a second part 202. The first part 201 is rotatably connected to the base 10, and the second part 202 is movably connected to the first part 201. Wherein, the second part 202 includes: a first shielding member 203 and a second shielding member 204. The first shielding member 203 and the second shielding member 204 are respectively movably connected to the first part 201. During the rotation of the first part 201 relative to the base 10, the overlapping area between the first shielding member 203 and the second shielding member 204 changes. Wherein, when the rotation of the first part 201 relative to the base 10 stops until the angle between the second part 202 and the other set of rotating components 20 is a first angle, the overlapping area between the first shielding member 203 and the second shielding member 204 is a first area; when the rotation of the first part 201 relative to the base 10 stops until the angle between the second part 202 and the other set of rotating components 20 is a second angle, the overlapping area between the first shielding member 203 and the second shielding member 204 is a second area; the first angle is different from the second angle, and the first area is different from the second area. Wherein, the two sets of rotating components 20 are respectively connected to the first body and the second body.

[0058] The electronic device may be a folding screen mobile phone capable of switching between a closed state and an open state, or a laptop computer capable of switching between a closed state and an open state, or other electronic devices capable of switching between a closed state and an open state.

[0059] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 1 to 7 As shown, the electronic device may further include: a battery cover 30. The battery cover 30 is coplanar with the first shielding member 203 and the second shielding member 204, so that the first shielding member 203, the second shielding member 204 and the battery cover 30 form the first back shell of the first body. Wherein, the second shielding member 204 is located between the first shielding member 203 and the battery cover 30. During the relative rotation of the two sets of rotating components 20, the overlapping area between the battery cover 30 and the second shielding member 204 changes. Thus, the lengths of the first shielding member 203, the second shielding member 204 and the battery cover 30 in the direction perpendicular to the axis of the rotating structure can be reduced.
