Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to electronic product technical field especially, relate to a kind of display module and electronic product. BACKGROUND

[0002] Since front camera module can meet the needs of selfie and video call, it is necessary to set front camera module in full-screen mobile phone.

[0003] In the existing mobile phone, due to the influence of front camera, the display screen above the front camera is usually punched to expose the front camera, which results in the display screen with holes, affecting the overall appearance of the mobile phone, and also cannot realize full-screen display.

[0004] To solve the above problems, the prior art uses under-screen display scheme, camera flipping scheme and camera pop-up scheme. However, for the under-screen display scheme, the front camera is hidden under the screen, which solves the above problems, but since the front camera is hidden under the display screen, the problem of light transmittance needs to be solved to ensure the imaging quality of the front camera. Even if high-transmittance OLED screen is used, refraction and scattering of light on the screen cannot be avoided, which greatly reduces the imaging quality of the under-screen camera. In order to make the display screen locally high-transmittance, the pixel density and driving circuit need to be adjusted, which reduces the display effect of the display screen. For the camera flipping scheme and the camera pop-up scheme, the camera module moves independently relative to the mobile phone main body, which needs to occupy a large space and is easy to be damaged by collision, which brings many inconveniences to the user.

[0044] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0045] like Figures 1-6 As shown, this utility model provides a display module, including a fixed frame 1, auxiliary display components 2, a driving mechanism 3, and a movable frame 4. Multiple auxiliary display components 2 are provided, each movably connected to the fixed frame 1. The movable frame 4 is installed at the output end of the driving mechanism 3. The driving mechanism 3 can drive the movable frame 4 to rotate relative to the fixed frame 1. When the movable frame 4 rotates, it can drive the multiple auxiliary display components 2 to switch between a display state and an avoidance state. When the multiple auxiliary display components 2 are in the display state, they are assembled together to form a shielding screen. When the multiple auxiliary display components 2 are in the avoidance state, they surround each other to form a working hole.

[0046] In this invention, based on the fixed frame 1 and multiple auxiliary display components 2, the driving mechanism 3 and the movable frame 4 cooperate to drive the multiple auxiliary display components 2 to switch between display state and avoidance state. In the display state, the multiple auxiliary display components 2 are assembled together to form a shielding screen, which can shield components such as cameras. In the avoidance state, the multiple auxiliary display components 2 surround to form a working hole, which can expose components such as cameras inside. Thus, while achieving full-screen display, the operation of components such as cameras is not affected.

[0047] Specifically, multiple auxiliary display components 2 are rotatably connected to the fixed frame 1. When the movable frame 4 rotates, it can drive the multiple auxiliary display components 2 to rotate relative to the fixed frame 1, thereby opening or closing the working hole. That is, when the movable frame 4 rotates in one direction, it can drive the multiple auxiliary display components 2 to rotate to the display state; when the movable frame 4 rotates in another direction, it can drive the multiple auxiliary display components 2 to rotate to the avoidance state. By setting the auxiliary display components 2 to rotate relative to the fixed frame 1, compared with sliding adjustment, the rotation adjustment of the auxiliary display components 2 is more efficient, and it can efficiently switch between the display state and the avoidance state.

[0048] More specifically, the display module also includes transmission rods 5. Each auxiliary display component 2 is equipped with a transmission rod 5. One end of the transmission rod 5 is rotatably connected to the auxiliary display component 2, and the other end is rotatably connected to the movable frame 4. The rotation axis at the connection between the transmission rod 5 and the auxiliary display component 2 is parallel to and spaced apart from the rotation axis at the connection between the auxiliary display component 2 and the fixed frame 1. When the movable frame 4 rotates, it can drive multiple auxiliary display components 2 to rotate relative to the fixed frame 1 through multiple transmission rods 5. The transmission rods 5 between the movable frame 4 and the auxiliary display components 2 further improve the efficiency of the rotation adjustment of the auxiliary display components 2.

[0049] More specifically, the mounting bracket 1 is provided with multiple limiting grooves 11, each corresponding to a multiple transmission rod 5. When the multiple transmission rods 5 abut against the bottom of the multiple limiting grooves 11, the multiple auxiliary display components 2 are in the display state. This arrangement ensures that the transmission rods 5 can safely and reliably move the auxiliary display components 2 to the display state, avoiding collisions or gaps between the auxiliary display components 2 in the display state, thus guaranteeing the display effect of the screen.

[0050] In this embodiment, both the fixed frame 1 and the movable frame 4 are annular and coaxially arranged. The working hole is located at the axis of the fixed frame, and the movable frame 4 is arranged around the outside of the fixed frame 1. Multiple limiting grooves 11 are evenly distributed on the outer peripheral wall of the fixed frame 1. The above arrangement makes the movable frame 4 more safe and reliable when rotating relative to the fixed frame 1, and avoids mutual interference between the two.

[0051] Specifically, the display module also includes a circuit board 6, which is mounted on the movable frame 4 and connected to multiple auxiliary display components 2. By mounting the circuit board 6 on the movable frame 4, the circuit board 6 can move with the movable frame 4, thus avoiding the influence of the movable frame 4 on the circuit board 6 when it is fixed.

[0052] More specifically, the circuit board 6 is signal-connected to the auxiliary display 2 via the transmission rod 5. Since both ends of the transmission rod 5 are connected to the movable frame 4 and the auxiliary display 2 respectively, by placing the signal connection function on the transmission rod 5, the circuit board 6 can more reliably connect to the auxiliary display 2.

[0053] In this embodiment, the auxiliary display component 2 is fan-shaped, with one end of the multiple auxiliary display components 2 facing each other as the tip of the blade. The tip of the auxiliary display component 2 is provided with a display screen, specifically an OLED display screen. When the multiple auxiliary display components 2 are in display state, the multiple OLED displays located at the tips of the blades are assembled together to form a circular shielding screen. The shielding screen can be assembled with the main display screen on the electronic product to form a full-screen display. The circuit board 6 is a PCBA board, and the transmission rod 5 is provided with connecting lines, which can connect the circuit board 6 and the OLED display screen for signal transmission and control. The specific structure, connection control relationship and working method of the circuit board 6 and the OLED display screen are conventional settings in the art and will not be described in detail here.

[0054] In other embodiments, the circuit board 6 may also be fixedly mounted on or fixedly disposed relative to the mounting bracket 1, and the display screen disposed on the tip of the auxiliary display component 2 may also be other types of display screens.

[0055] Specifically, the drive mechanism 3 includes a motor 31 and an active component 32 disposed at the output end of the motor 31, the active component 32 being drively connected to the movable frame 4. This configuration enables the drive mechanism 3 to smoothly and reliably drive the movable frame 4 to rotate.

[0056] More specifically, the driving component 32 engages with the movable frame 4. This arrangement makes the driving component 32's drive of the movable frame 4 more precise.

[0057] In this embodiment, the driving element 32 is a gear, and the outer peripheral wall of the movable frame 4 is provided with teeth. The gear and the teeth mesh with each other. The diameter of the driving element 32 is smaller than that of the movable frame 4, so that the driving mechanism 3 drives the movable frame 4 more smoothly and reliably.

[0058] In other embodiments, the driving member 32 and the movable frame 4 can also directly abut against each other, and transmission can be achieved through friction. In other embodiments, a transmission belt can also be wound around the driving member 32 and the movable frame 4, and transmission can be achieved through the transmission belt.

[0059] Specifically, the display module also includes multiple limiting rods 7, and the movable frame 4 is provided with limiting slides 41. The multiple limiting rods 7 are fixedly set relative to the fixed frame 1 and extend into the multiple limiting slides 41 one by one. The movable frame 4 can rotate relative to the multiple limiting rods 7. The above arrangement enables the movable frame 4 to reliably rotate around its own axis.

[0060] More specifically, the display module also includes multiple support rods 8, which are fixedly installed. The mounting bracket 1 is mounted on the multiple support rods 8, and the auxiliary display component 2 is located on one side of the mounting bracket 1 and is rotatably connected to the support rods 8.

[0061] In this embodiment, the limiting slide 41 is arc-shaped and concentrically arranged with the movable frame 4. Multiple limiting rods 7 are arranged in a ring and fixed outside the ring of the fixed frame 1. The rotation axis of the movable frame 4 is the central axis of the ring formed by the multiple limiting rods 7. Multiple support rods 8 are arranged in a ring and fixed inside the ring of the movable frame 4. The driving mechanism 3 is fixed relative to the fixed frame 1 and is located outside the ring of the movable frame 4.

[0062] Example 2

[0063] This embodiment provides a display module, whose components are the same as or corresponding to those in Embodiment 1, and are referred to by the same or corresponding reference numerals as those in Embodiment 1. For simplicity, only the differences between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 are described below.

[0064] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that the transmission rod 5 is replaced with a transmission gear. Each auxiliary display element 2 is equipped with a transmission gear, and multiple auxiliary display elements 2 are rotatably connected to the fixed frame 1. The transmission gears are fixed to the auxiliary display elements 2 and mesh with the movable frame 4. When the movable frame 4 rotates, it can drive multiple auxiliary display elements 2 to rotate relative to the fixed frame 1 through multiple transmission gears. The transmission between the movable frame 4 and the auxiliary display elements 2 is more stable and reliable due to the transmission gears.

[0065] Specifically, the auxiliary display component 2 is rotatably connected to the fixed frame 1 via the support rod 8. The support rod 8 and the fixed frame 1 are fixedly set. The transmission gear is fixedly connected to the auxiliary display component 2 and rotatably sleeved on the support rod 8. Each support rod 8 is rotatably sleeved with a transmission gear.

[0066] Example 3

[0067] This embodiment provides a display module, whose components are the same as or corresponding to those in Embodiment 1, and are referred to by the same or corresponding reference numerals as those in Embodiment 1. For simplicity, only the differences between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 are described below.

[0068] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that: multiple auxiliary display components 2 are slidably connected to the fixed frame 1, the transmission rod 5 is replaced by a sliding column, each auxiliary display component 2 is equipped with a sliding column, the fixed frame 1 is provided with a guide slide for each sliding column, and the movable frame 4 is provided with a drive slide for each sliding column. Each sliding column passes through a corresponding guide slide and a drive slide. When the movable frame 4 rotates, the drive slide drives the sliding column to slide along the guide slide, thereby causing the multiple auxiliary display components 2 to slide relative to the fixed frame 1 in opposite directions or towards each other, to open or close the working hole. The above arrangement allows for more diverse sizes and shapes of the auxiliary display components 2, without needing to consider the interference between them during rotation adjustment.

[0069] Specifically, the sliding column is vertically fixed to the auxiliary display component 2, the axis of the sliding column is parallel to the axis of the annular fixed frame 1, the guide slide extends radially along the annular fixed frame 1, the cross-section of the part of the sliding column that extends into the guide slide is rectangular, and it can only slide in the guide slide and cannot rotate. The corresponding guide slide and drive slide are set at an angle, so that when the two move relative to each other, the drive slide can drive the sliding column to slide along the guide slide.

[0070] Example 4

[0071] like Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, this embodiment provides an electronic product, including a housing 100, a camera 200, a main display screen, and a display module of any of the above embodiments. The camera 200, the main display screen, and the display module are respectively installed on the housing 100. The main display screen is provided with a camera hole, and the camera 200 is directly facing the camera hole. The display module is located between the camera 200 and the main display screen. When the multiple auxiliary display components 2 are in the display state, they cover the camera hole. When the multiple auxiliary display components 2 are in the avoidance state, the working end of the camera 200 is exposed from the working hole.

[0072] In the electronic product of this embodiment, based on the fixed frame 1 and multiple auxiliary display components 2, the drive mechanism 3 and the movable frame 4 cooperate to drive the multiple auxiliary display components 2 to switch between display state and avoidance state. In the display state, the multiple auxiliary display components 2 are assembled together to form a shielding screen, which can shield the camera 200. At this time, the shielding screen and the main display screen can be assembled into a full screen for display. In the avoidance state, the multiple auxiliary display components 2 surround to form a working hole, which can expose the camera 200 inside, so that the camera 200 can carry out shooting work normally. Thus, while realizing full screen display, the operation of the camera 200 is not affected.

[0073] Specifically, multiple limiting rods 7 are arranged in a ring within the housing 100 to support and limit the movable frame 4 thereon. Multiple support rods 8 are arranged in a ring within the housing 100 to support and fix the fixed frame 1 thereon. The camera 200 is fixed within the housing 100 and located inside the ring of the fixed frame 1. The motor 31 is fixed within the housing 100 and located outside the ring of the movable frame 4.

[0074] The electronic product in this embodiment is a mobile phone, tablet computer, etc. The circuit connection and coordination control method of the camera 200, main display screen and display module are existing technologies and will not be described in detail here. In other embodiments, the electronic product may also be other devices with a camera 200 and a main display screen, which is not limited here.
