[0030] To make the objectives, features, and advantages of this disclosure more apparent and understandable, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this disclosure will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this disclosure, and not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this disclosure without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this disclosure.

[0031] Combination Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the electronic device provided in this embodiment includes a first body 1, a second body 2, a third body 3, a display component 4, and a support member 5. The first body 1 includes a main body portion 11 and a support portion 12. The main body portion 11 includes an input portion such as a keyboard. The second body 2 is connected to the main body portion 11 via a first connecting mechanism 61, and the second body 2 can rotate relative to the main body portion 11 between 0 and 180°. The first connecting mechanism 61 provides a first damping force to the rotation of the second body 2 relative to the main body portion 11; the first damping force maintains the relative position of the second body 2 and the main body portion 11.

[0032] The third body 3 is connected to the second body 2 via a second connecting mechanism 62. The third body 3 can rotate relative to the second body 2 between 0 and 180°. The second connecting mechanism 62 is used to provide a second damping force for the rotation of the third body 3 relative to the second body 2; the second damping force can keep the third body 3 and the second body 2 in a relative positional relationship.

[0033] Display component 4 is connected to the second body 2 and the third body 3; when the second body 2 and the third body 3 rotate relative to each other, the first part and the second part of display component 4 rotate relative to each other. Display component 4 can be a flexible screen.

[0034] The support member 5 is connected to the second body 2 via a third connecting mechanism 63. The support member 5 can rotate between 0 and 180° relative to the second body 2. The third connecting mechanism 63 is used to provide a third damping force for the rotation of the support member 5 relative to the second body 2. The third damping force can maintain the relative position of the support member 5 and the second body 2, thereby improving the stability of the support member 5 in supporting the second body 2.

[0035] The support member 5 has a first state; wherein, when the electronic device is in a first device posture, the second body 2 satisfies a target angle relative to the main body 11, the support member 5 is in the first state, and there is a fourth damping force between the support member 5 and the support part 12. The fourth damping force can maintain the relative positional relationship between the support member 5 and the support part 12, thereby improving the stability of the support member 5 in supporting the second body 2.

[0036] The support member 5 can change its state, providing support for the electronic device and offering third and fourth damping forces to ensure stable placement on a support surface such as a desktop in various device postures. The first connecting mechanism 61 provides a first damping force for the rotation of the second body 2 relative to the main body 11. The second connecting mechanism 62 provides a second damping force for the rotation of the third body 3 relative to the second body 2, and the third connecting mechanism 63 provides a third damping force for the rotation of the support member 5 relative to the second body 2. Therefore, the electronic device can assume multiple device postures.

[0037] Optionally, the first connecting mechanism 61, the second connecting mechanism 62, and the third connecting mechanism 63 can specifically be a spring-loaded damping shaft assembly. A spring-loaded piece sleeved on the shaft provides axial pressure to a damping piece sleeved on the shaft, thereby generating a damping force that causes the connected objects to rotate relative to each other. When the electronic device is in the first device posture, the main body 11 forms a target angle relative to the second body 2, and the support member 5 is in the first state. That is, in the first device posture, the second body 2 and the third body 3 can be in a flattened state or can meet the set angle.

[0038] Optionally, the first connecting mechanism 61, the second connecting mechanism 62, and the third connecting mechanism 63 may each include a rotating shaft and a bushing. The bushing is fitted onto the rotating shaft, and the diameter of the rotating shaft may be slightly larger than the inner diameter of the bushing. By applying a certain force, the rotating shaft is pushed into the bushing, and the rotating shaft and bushing fit tightly together, generating a damping force (friction). Therefore, a large external force is required to rotate the rotating shaft and bushing relative to each other. When the external force disappears, the damping force between the rotating shaft and bushing overcomes the weight of the structural component connected to them, keeping the rotating shaft and bushing in their current position without rotation, and correspondingly causing the structural component to remain stationary at its current position angle.

[0039] The second body 2 is positioned at a certain unfolding angle relative to the main body 11 to allow the user to use the electronic device. Figure 1 The exemplary laptop mode demonstrates the use of this electronic device on a desktop. The first body 1 is placed on the desktop, with the main body 11 and the support part coplanar, providing overall support for the electronic device. The third connecting mechanism 63 provides a third damping force to prevent the support member 5 from rotating relative to the second body 2. The fourth damping force between the support member 5 and the support part 12 can maintain the relative positional relationship of the rotation, improve the stability of the support member 5 supporting the second body 2, reduce the possibility of the display component 4 shaking, reduce the possibility of the electronic device shaking, make the electronic device less likely to tip over, and improve the stability of the electronic device.

[0040] In this embodiment, the third connecting mechanism 63 has a third damping force. When the touch display component 4 is touched, the third damping force will play an auxiliary support role. In addition, the fourth damping force between the support member 5 and the support part 12 is combined with the third damping force to support the display component 4. The torque generated by the gravity of the second body 2 and the third body 3 will be weakened. The support member 5 and the second body 2 are linked so that the support structure formed by the support member 5 can solve the support and stability problem of the system with a relatively small damping, which is more effective and more stable than the torque of the third connecting mechanism 63 alone.

[0041] In some specific embodiments, when the support member 5 is in the first state, it supports the second body 2 of the electronic device when it is in the first device posture. When the electronic device is in the first device posture, the second body 2 satisfies a target angle relative to the main body 11. The target angle can be any angle between greater than 90° and less than 180° for the user to use the electronic device. In this embodiment, the first connecting mechanism 61 has a first damping force, and the third connecting mechanism 63 has a third damping force. When the touch display component 4 is touched, the third damping force plays an auxiliary supporting role. There is a fourth damping force between the support member 5 and the support part 12. The fourth damping force and the third damping force combine to support the display component 4. The torque generated by the gravity of the second body 2 and the third body 3 is weakened. The linkage between the support member 5 and the second body 2 allows the support structure formed by the support member 5 to solve the system's support and stability problems with relatively small damping. This is more effective and stable than the torque of the third connecting mechanism 63 alone, reducing the possibility of the electronic device shaking and the display component 4 shaking, making the electronic device less likely to tip over and improving the stability of the electronic device.

[0042] In some specific embodiments, when the electronic device is in the second device posture, the second body 2 and the main body 11 are coplanar, the support member 5 is in the second state, and the support member 5 is housed within the second body 2. When the electronic device is in the second device posture, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the main body 11 of the first body 1 is coplanar with the second body 2, and the support member 5 is housed in the second body 2. When the third body 3 is attached to the first body 1, it facilitates the storage of electronic devices. When the electronic device is in the second device posture, the second body 2 and the third body 3 can meet a set angle, and the third body 3 unfolds at a set angle relative to the second body 2 for the user to use the electronic device.

[0043] Optionally, the second body 2 is provided with a groove, which forms a receiving part. When the electronic device is in the second device posture, the support member 5 is received in the second body 2.

[0044] In some specific embodiments, the unfolding angle of the second body 2 relative to the main body 11 is linked to the unfolding angle between the support member 5 and the second body 2. The fourth damping force between the support member 5 and the support part 12, combined with the third damping force formed by the third connecting mechanism 63, serves to support the display component 4. The linkage between the support member 5 and the second body 2 allows the third and fourth damping forces formed by the support member 5 to solve the system's support and stability problems with relatively small damping, which is more effective and stable than the torque of the third connecting mechanism 63 alone.

[0045] In some specific embodiments, the rotation direction of the second body 2 relative to the main body 11 is opposite to the rotation direction of the support member 5 relative to the second body 2, so that the third damping force and the fourth damping force formed by the support member 5 can solve the support and stability problems of the system with relatively small damping, which is more effective and more stable than the torque of the simple third connecting mechanism 63.

[0046] In some specific embodiments, the support portion 12 includes a slide rail 121, and the support member 5 includes a slider 51, which slides in cooperation with the slide rail 121.

[0047] In some specific embodiments, the unfolding angle between the support member 5 and the second body 2 is linked to the sliding distance of the support member 5 on the slide rail 121, so that the third damping force and the fourth damping force formed by the support member 5 can solve the support and stability problems of the system with relatively small damping, which is more effective and more stable than the torque of the simple third connecting mechanism 63.

[0048] In some specific embodiments, the slide rail 121 includes a slide groove 122, and the support member 5 is provided with a damping member 52, which is disposed in the slide groove 122.

[0049] The unfolding angle of the second body 2 relative to the main body 11 is linked to the unfolding angle between the support member 5 and the second body 2. The support member 5 is provided with a damping member 52, which is disposed in the slide groove 122. The damping member 52 contacts the slide groove 122 to generate a fourth damping force. The fourth damping force between the support member 5 and the support part 12 combines with the third damping force formed by the third connecting mechanism 63 to support the display component 4. The linkage between the support member 5 and the second body 2 allows the third and fourth damping forces formed by the support member 5 to solve the system's support and stability problems with relatively small damping, which is more effective and stable than the torque of the third connecting mechanism 63 alone.

[0050] Optionally, the friction between the damping element 52 and the groove 122 forms a fourth damping force. Optionally, the damping element 52 may be made of rubber material.

[0051] In some specific embodiments, the support member 5 is installed in the middle region of the second body 2. Since the support member 5 is installed in the middle region of the second body 2, the torque generated by the gravity of the second body 2 and the third body 3 is weakened. The linkage between the support member 5 and the second body 2 allows the support structure formed by the support member 5 to solve the system's support and stability problems with relatively small damping. This is more effective and stable than the torque of the simple third connecting mechanism 63, reducing the possibility of electronic device shaking, reducing the possibility of display component 4 shaking, making the electronic device less likely to tip over, and improving the stability of the electronic device.

[0052] In some specific embodiments, the third connecting mechanism 63 includes a rotating shaft and a first fixing part and a second fixing part that rotatably cooperate with the rotating shaft. The first fixing part is connected to the second body 2, and the second fixing part is connected to the support member 5. The support member 5 is connected to the second body 2 through the third connecting mechanism 63, and the support member 5 can rotate relative to the second body 2 between 0 and 180°. The third connecting mechanism 63 is used to provide a third damping force for the rotation of the support member 5 relative to the second body 2. The third damping force can maintain the relative positional relationship between the support member 5 and the second body 2, thereby improving the stability of the support member 5 in supporting the second body 2.
