[0069] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0070] The following is combined with Figures 1-12 The electronic device provided by the utility model embodiments will be described in detail through specific implementation examples and application scenarios.
[0071] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this utility model embodiment provides an electronic device, including: a first body 1, a hinge mechanism 2, a connector 3, a second body 4, and a detachable structure 5;
[0072] The hinge mechanism 2 is rotatably connected between the first body 1 and the connector 3. The detachable structure 5 includes a connecting shaft 51 and a plug-in part 52. The connecting shaft 51 is located on the second body 4, and the plug-in part 52 is located on the connector 3. The connecting shaft 51 and the plug-in part 52 form a plug-in fit, and the connecting shaft 51 is rotatably arranged relative to the plug-in part 52.
[0073] Understandably, the electronic device could be a dual-screen translator or a dual-screen learning machine.
[0074] At least one of the first main body 1 and the second main body 4 is a display body equipped with a display screen. For example, both the first main body 1 and the second main body 4 are equipped with functional components such as a motherboard, a battery, and a display screen, so that both the first main body 1 and the second main body 4 can display corresponding content through their respective display screens according to the user's needs. The display screen can be a touch screen.
[0075] At the same time, the first body 1 and the second body 4 can communicate with each other. For example, the first body 1 is provided with a first communication module, and the second body 4 is provided with a second communication module. Information can be transmitted between the first communication module and the second communication module. For example, the first communication module and the second communication module are both wireless communication modules such as Bluetooth modules and WiFi modules.
[0076] like Figure 1 As shown, the first side of the first main body 1 is rotatably connected to the first side of the connector 3 through the hinge mechanism 2, and the second side of the connector 3 is detachably connected to the first side of the second main body 4 through the detachable structure 5.
[0077] The lengths of the first side of the first main body 1, the first and second sides of the connector 3, and the first side of the second main body 4 can be set to be equal, that is, the lengths of the first main body 1, the connector 3, and the second main body 4 are equal; at the same time, the width of the first main body 1 can be set to the sum of the width of the connector 3 and the width of the second main body 4.
[0078] For the hinge mechanism 2, the hinge mechanism 2 can be a single-axis hinge or a double-axis hinge, and there is no specific limitation on this.
[0079] For connector 3, such as Figure 2 As shown, the connector 3 includes a housing 31 and a cover plate 32. The cover plate 32 is detachably disposed at the open end of the housing 31. The cover plate 32 and the housing 31 form a receiving cavity. The insertion part 52 is disposed in the receiving cavity. The connecting shaft 51 can pass through the housing 31 and is connected to the insertion part 52.
[0080] For the detachable structure 5, the connecting shaft 51 and the plug-in part 52 form a plug-in fit. When installing the second body 4, the second body 4 can be controlled to move closer to the connector 3 when the connecting shaft 51 and the plug-in part 52 are facing each other, so that the connecting shaft 51 can be inserted into the plug-in part 52. Since the connecting shaft 51 is rotatable relative to the plug-in part 52, the second body 4 can be controlled to rotate relative to the connector 3 to adjust the posture of the second body 4 according to actual needs. When disassembling the second body 4, the connecting shaft 51 can be separated from the plug-in part 52 simply by controlling the second body 4 to move away from the connector 3.
[0081] The electronic device provided by this utility model configures a connector 3, a hinge mechanism 2, and a detachable structure 5 on a first main body 1 and a second main body 4. The first main body 1 and the connector 3 are rotatably connected by the hinge mechanism 2, and the connector 3 and the second main body 4 are detachably connected by the detachable structure 5. When the connector 3 and the second main body 4 are connected, the hinge mechanism 2 can be used to control the relative rotation of the first main body 1 and the connector 3 to adjust the opening angle of the first main body 1 and the second main body 4. Furthermore, the rotational cooperation between the connecting shaft 51 and the insertion part 52 can be used to control the rotation of the second main body 4 relative to the connector 3, thereby conveniently adjusting the distribution posture of the first main body 1 and the second main body 4 to meet the application needs of the electronic device in different scenarios. When the connector 3 and the second main body 4 are separated, the needs of different users to use the first main body 1 and the second main body 4 individually can be met, further expanding the application scenarios of the electronic device. When both the first main body and the second main body are display subjects, the dual-screen display effect of the electronic device can be improved.
[0082] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the insertion part 52 includes: a drive assembly 521 and a clamping assembly 522;
[0083] The drive assembly 521 and the clamping assembly 522 are respectively disposed on the connector 3. The drive assembly 521 and the clamping assembly 522 are connected. The clamping assembly 522 has a clamping port. The connecting shaft 51 is rotatably disposed on the clamping port. The drive assembly 521 is used to drive the clamping assembly 522 to open or close the clamping port.
[0084] Understandably, when connecting the connector 3 and the second body 4, the drive assembly 521 can be used to open the clamping port of the clamping assembly 522 so that the user can control the connecting shaft 51 to be inserted into the clamping port. When the connecting shaft 51 is inserted into the clamping port, the drive assembly 521 can be used to close the clamping port of the clamping assembly 522 to lock the connecting shaft 51, preventing the connecting shaft 51 from disengaging from the clamping port while ensuring that the connecting shaft 51 is rotatably disposed in the clamping port. When separating the connector 3 and the second body 4, the drive assembly 521 can be used to open the clamping port of the clamping assembly 522, and the user only needs to control the second body 4 to move away from the connector 3 to ensure that the connecting shaft 51 disengages from the clamping port.
[0085] Of course, for some clamping components 522 that use elastic elements for opening and closing control, the force applied to the clamping port when the connecting shaft 51 is inserted can force the clamping port of the clamping component 522 to open. When the connecting shaft 51 is inserted into the clamping port, the clamping component 522 can automatically lock the connecting shaft 51. When separating the connecting piece 3 and the second body 4, the driving component 521 can be used to drive the clamping port of the clamping component 522 to open. The user only needs to control the second body 4 to move away from the connecting piece 3 to ensure that the connecting shaft 51 is disengaged from the clamping port.
[0086] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 As shown, the clamping assembly 522 includes: a guide 5221, a first clamping member 5222, and a second clamping member 5223;
[0087] The guide member 5221 is disposed on the connector 3, the first clamping member 5222 and the second clamping member 5223 are disposed opposite to each other and are respectively movably disposed on the guide member 5221, and a clamping opening is formed between the first clamping member 5222 and the second clamping member 5223;
[0088] The drive assembly 521 is connected to the first clamping member 5222 and the second clamping member 5223 respectively, so as to drive the first clamping member 5222 and the second clamping member 5223 to move closer to each other or separate from each other.
[0089] It is understood that the guide member 5221 can extend along the length direction of the connector 3, and the first clamping member 5222 and the second clamping member 5223 can slide along the extension direction of the guide member 5221. When the drive assembly 521 drives the first clamping member 5222 and the second clamping member 5223 to move closer to each other, it can control the clamping opening between the first clamping member 5222 and the second clamping member 5223 to close. When the drive assembly 521 drives the first clamping member 5222 and the second clamping member 5223 to separate from each other, it can control the clamping opening between the first clamping member 5222 and the second clamping member 5223 to open.
[0090] For example, the guide member 5221 may be a guide plate, and the first clamping member 5222 and the second clamping member 5223 are respectively movably disposed on the upper side of the guide plate.
[0091] For example, the guide member 5221 is provided with a first guide rail and a second guide rail, which are spaced apart from each other and both extend along the length direction of the connector 3; the first clamping member 5222 is provided with a first guide channel, and the second clamping member 5223 is provided with a second guide channel. The first guide rail passes through the first guide channel to achieve a sliding engagement with the first clamping member 5222, and the second guide rail passes through the second guide channel to achieve a sliding engagement with the second clamping member 5223; wherein, both the first guide channel and the second guide channel are grooves or through holes, and there is no specific limitation on this.
[0092] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 As shown, the drive assembly 521 includes: a button 5211, a first elastic element 5212, and a second elastic element 5213;
[0093] Button 5211 is located between the first clamping member 5222 and the second clamping member 5223, and is connected to the first clamping member 5222 and the second clamping member 5223 respectively, so as to control the separation of the first clamping member 5222 and the second clamping member 5223 from each other;
[0094] The first elastic member 5212 abuts against the side of the first clamping member 5222 away from the button 5211, and the second elastic member 5213 abuts against the side of the second clamping member 5223 away from the button 5211.
[0095] It is understandable that the button 5211 can be raised and lowered in the vertical direction (e.g., along the thickness direction of the connector 3). The button 5211 can adopt an inclined structure to slide and cooperate with the first clamping member 5222 and the second clamping member 5223 respectively. The button 5211 can also adopt a transmission structure to connect with the first clamping member 5222 and the second clamping member 5223 respectively, so as to control the separation of the first clamping member 5222 and the second clamping member 5223 relative to the button 5211.
[0096] Both the first elastic element 5212 and the second elastic element 5213 can be springs and are configured to extend along the length of the connector 3. The first end of the first elastic element 5212 abuts against the side of the first clamping member 5222 away from the button 5211, and the second end of the first elastic element 5212 is connected to the connector 3. The first end of the second elastic element 5213 abuts against the side of the second clamping member 5223 away from the button 5211, and the second end of the second elastic element 5213 is connected to the connector 3.
[0097] In practical applications, when button 5211 is pressed, button 5211 can control the first clamping member 5222 and the second clamping member 5223 to separate from each other. For example, the first clamping member 5222 and the second clamping member 5223 move in opposite directions along the length direction of the connecting member 3 to open the clamping port. During this process, the first elastic member 5212 and the second elastic member 5213 are compressed and in a compressed state.
[0098] When the button 5211 is released, the elastic force of the first elastic member 5212 and the second elastic member 5213 when they return from the compressed state to the initial state can be used to drive the first clamping member 5222 to move toward the button 5211, and the second elastic member 5213 to drive the second clamping member 5223 to move toward the button 5211. That is, the first clamping member 5222 and the second clamping member 5223 move closer to each other, which closes the clamping opening between the first clamping member 5222 and the second clamping member 5223.
[0099] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, the connecting shaft 51 includes a main shaft 511 and a guide head 512. The first end of the main shaft 511 is connected to the second body 4, and the second end of the main shaft 511 is connected to the guide head 512. The first clamping member 5222 has a first guide surface on the side facing the second clamping member 5223, and the second clamping member 5223 has a second guide surface on the side facing the first clamping member 5222.
[0100] During the process of inserting the connecting shaft 51 toward the insertion part 52, the guide head 512 slides and engages with the first guide surface and the second guide surface respectively to control the separation of the first clamping member 5222 and the second clamping member 5223 from each other;
[0101] When the guide head 512 reaches the side of the clamping opening away from the second body 4, the spindle 511 is clamped in the clamping opening, and the guide head 512 is stopped at the side of the clamping opening away from the second body 4.
[0102] It is understandable that the diameter of the guide head 512 gradually decreases along the insertion direction of the connecting shaft 51, that is, along the direction of the second body 4 toward the connector 3. For example, the guide head 512 can be configured as a tapered head, and the diameter of the end of the guide head 512 toward the main shaft 511 is greater than the diameter of the main shaft 511.
[0103] Since the first clamping member 5222 and the second clamping member 5223 are arranged opposite to each other and are movably disposed on the guide member 5221, when the first clamping member 5222 is provided with a first guide surface and the second clamping member 5223 is provided with a second guide surface, when the guide head 512 is inserted toward the clamping opening, the first clamping member 5222 will be subjected to an abutting force toward the side away from the second clamping member 5223 due to the sliding fit between the guide head 512 and the first guide surface. Correspondingly, the second clamping member 5223 will be subjected to an abutting force toward the side away from the first clamping member 5222 due to the sliding fit between the guide head 512 and the second guide surface. Thus, the guide head 512 can be used to control the separation of the first clamping member 5222 and the second clamping member 5223 from each other.
[0104] For example, at least a portion of the first guide surface is configured to be inclined along the moving direction of the first clamp 5222, and at least a portion of the second guide surface is configured to be inclined along the moving direction of the second clamp 5223; wherein, the first guide surface and the second guide surface may be configured to be symmetrically arranged along the symmetrical surface of the line connecting the button 5211 and the connecting shaft 51.
[0105] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, in order to facilitate the movement of the first clamping member 5222 along the extension direction of the guide member 5221 by the button 5211, the button 5211 is provided with a first inclined surface X1, which is located on the lower side of the button 5211. The first clamping member 5222 is provided with a second inclined surface X2, which contacts the first inclined surface X1. When the button 5211 is pressed, the first inclined surface X1 and the second inclined surface X2 slide together to drive the first clamping member 5222 to move toward the side away from the second clamping member 5223.
[0106] To facilitate the movement of the second clamping member 5223 along the extension direction of the guide member 5221 by the button 5211, the button 5211 is provided with a third inclined surface X3, which is located on the lower side of the button 5211. The second clamping member 5223 is provided with a fourth inclined surface X4, which contacts the third inclined surface X3. When the button 5211 is pressed, the third inclined surface X3 and the fourth inclined surface X4 slide together to drive the second clamping member 5223 to move toward the side away from the first clamping member 5222.
[0107] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the drive assembly 521 further includes a third elastic member 5214, which abuts against the button 5211 and the guide member 5221. The button 5211 is disposed on the upper side of the guide member 5221. When the button 5211 is released from pressure, the third elastic member 5214 is used to drive the button 5211 to rise relative to the guide member 5221.
[0108] Understandably, the third elastic element 5214 can be a spring.
[0109] When button 5211 is pressed, while controlling the first clamping member 5222 and the second clamping member 5223 to separate from each other, button 5211 will also press the third elastic member 5214 so that the third elastic member 5214 switches to the compressed state.
[0110] When the button 5211 is released from pressure, the elastic force of the third elastic element 5214 when it returns from the compressed state to the initial state can be used to control the button 5211 to rise relative to the guide 5221, so that the button 5211 returns to the initial position and releases the pressure restriction of the button 5211 on the first clamping element 5222 and the second clamping element 5223, ensuring that the first clamping element 5222 and the second clamping element 5223 move closer to each other under the elastic force of the first elastic element 5212 and the second elastic element 5213, so as to achieve the purpose of quickly closing the clamping opening.
[0111] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 As shown, the connector 3 has a receiving cavity and an installation port and an opening communicating with the receiving cavity; the drive assembly 521 and the clamping assembly 522 are disposed in the receiving cavity, a part of the button 5211 is located in the receiving cavity, and the other part is exposed in the installation port; the connecting shaft 51 passes through the opening and extends into the receiving cavity so as to be rotatably disposed in the clamping port.
[0112] Understandably, by housing the drive assembly 521 and the clamping assembly 522 within the receiving cavity, it is easy to achieve a concealed arrangement of the drive assembly 521 and the clamping assembly 522, thus ensuring the overall aesthetics of the electronic device.
[0113] At the same time, the opening provides support for the rotation of the connecting shaft 51, ensuring the reliability of the rotational connection between the connector 3 and the second body 4; wherein, the diameter of the opening matches the diameter of the connecting shaft 51.
[0114] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 As shown, the connector 3 is provided with a first magnetic element 501, which is used to magnetically engage with the second body 4.
[0115] It is understandable that the first magnetic component 501 can be a permanent magnet, and the second body 4 can be a ferromagnetic housing 31. This allows the first magnetic component 501 to magnetically engage with the second body 4. This design can utilize the magnetic engagement between the first magnetic component and the second body 4, combined with the connection between the connecting shaft 51 and the insertion part 52, to ensure the reliability of the connection between the second body 4 and the connecting component 3.
[0116] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 As shown, the connector 3 is provided with a first magnetic element 501, and the second body 4 is provided with a second magnetic element 502. The first magnetic element 501 and the second magnetic element 502 are arranged opposite to each other and magnetically attracted to each other.
[0117] It is understandable that both the first magnetic component 501 and the second magnetic component 502 can be permanent magnets. Of course, one of the first magnetic component 501 and the second magnetic component 502 can be a permanent magnet, while the other of the first magnetic component 501 and the second magnetic component 502 can be a ferromagnetic material, such as an iron block.
[0118] By setting the first magnetic element 501 and the second magnetic element 502, not only can the magnetic attraction between the first magnetic element 501 and the second magnetic element 502 be used to guide the second body 4 to quickly dock with the connector 3 in a set posture, but also the connection between the connecting shaft 51 and the insertion part 52 and the magnetic attraction can be combined to ensure the reliability of the connection between the second body 4 and the connector 3.
[0119] In some embodiments, such as Figures 7 to 12 As shown, the electronic device can switch between an unfolded state and a folded state to meet the user's needs in different scenarios.
[0120] like Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, when the electronic device is in a folded state, the connector 3 and the second body 4 are distributed on the same layer and are stacked with the first body 1 respectively.
[0121] It is understandable that the sum of the width of the connector 3 and the width of the second body 4 is equal to the width of the first body 1. When the electronic device is in a folded state, the projections of the connector 3 and the second body 4 overlap with the projection of the first body 1 along the thickness direction of the first body 1.
[0122] In practical applications, because the electronic device is folded, it is convenient for users to carry, store, or use by a single person, and it also facilitates the protection of the screens of the first main body 1 and the second main body 4, preventing the screens from being accidentally bumped or knocked; for example Figure 7 As shown, when the user uses the electronic device alone, the connector 3 and the second main body 4 of the electronic device can remain connected, at which time the user can use either the first main body 1 or the second main body 4; as Figure 8 As shown, when multiple people use the electronic device, the connector 3 and the second main body 4 of the electronic device remain separated. At this time, some users can use the first main body 1, while other users can use the second main body 4.
[0123] like Figure 9 , Figure 10 , Figure 11 and Figure 12 As shown, when the electronic device is in the unfolded state, the first main body 1 and the connecting member 3 are arranged at an angle relative to the hinge mechanism 2, and the connecting member 3 and the second main body 4 are coplanar or distributed on different planes.
[0124] It is understandable that when the electronic device is in the unfolded state, the included angle between the first body 1 and the connector 3 can be 0° to 180°. Therefore, when the connector 3 and the second body 4 are coplanar, the included angle between the first body 1 and the second body 4 can be any angle value between 0° and 180°.
[0125] like Figure 9 As shown, Figure 9 The illustration depicts a scenario where the angle between the first main body 1 and the second main body 4 is an acute angle. In this case, the screen of the second main body 4 can be positioned facing or away from the first main body 1; no specific limitation is made in this regard. Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown, Figure 10 and Figure 11 The diagrams illustrate the case where the angle between the first main body 1 and the second main body 4 is 180°.
[0126] Since the first main body 1 and the connecting piece 3 are rotatably connected by the hinge mechanism 2, the included angle between the first main body 1 and the second main body 4 can switch between 0° and 180° during the switching process between the unfolded state and the folded state of the electronic device, thereby meeting the user's usage needs in different scenarios.
[0127] Furthermore, such as Figure 12 As shown, when the electronic device is in the unfolded state, while the first main body 1 and the connector 3 maintain a certain angle, the second main body 4 can also be controlled to rotate relative to the connector 3. For example, the second main body 4 can rotate 360° relative to the connector 3 so that the connector 3 and the second main body 4 are distributed on different planes. At this time, the second main body 4 and the first main body 1 can be set to be perpendicular to each other and distributed on different planes, which is conducive to further expanding the application scenarios of the electronic device.
[0128] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the hinge mechanism 2 includes:
[0129] Base 21;
[0130] Two rocker arms 23 are rotatably mounted on the base 21. One rocker arm 23 is connected to the first main body 1, and the other rocker arm 23 is connected to the connector 3.
[0131] Torque member 24 is disposed between two rocker arms 23. Torque member 24 is used to drive the two rocker arms 23 to swing towards each other so that the connector 3 folds toward the first body 1.
[0132] Limiting component 25 is connected to two rocker arms 23 respectively. The limiting component 25 is used to lock the two rocker arms 23 when they are extended to a preset angle.
[0133] It is understandable that, such as Figure 2 As shown, the base 21 can be designed as a closed shell, the shell is provided with a receiving cavity and a first passage and a second passage communicating with the receiving cavity, the first passage and the second passage are arranged opposite to each other on both sides of the shell along the width direction of the shell.
[0134] Two rotating shafts 22 are rotatably arranged inside the accommodating cavity. The two rotating shafts 22 are spaced apart from each other and arranged side by side. The first ends of two rocker arms 23 are installed on the two rotating shafts 22 in a corresponding manner. The second end of one rocker arm 23 passes through the first passage and is connected to the first main body 1. The second end of the other rocker arm 23 passes through the second passage and is connected to the connector 3.
[0135] In practical applications, the hinge mechanism 2 can also be configured with a gear assembly, which includes a first tooth, a transmission gear, and a second tooth. The first tooth, the transmission gear, and the second tooth mesh in sequence. The first tooth is located at the first end of one of the rocker arms 23, and the second tooth is located at the first end of the other rocker arm 23. This design can ensure that the two rocker arms 23 swing synchronously.
[0136] The torsion member 24 can be a torsion spring. In practical applications, the user can move the connector 3 and the first body 1 to achieve the required opening angle. At this time, the torsion member 24 will undergo elastic deformation. When the connector 3 and the second body 4 are separated, the torsion member 24 between the two rocker arms 23 can be used. The elastic force generated when the torsion member 24 returns to its original state will drive the two rocker arms 23 to close to the zero position. That is, within the range allowed by the torsion member 24, the hinge mechanism 2 can ensure that the connector 3 folds towards the first body 1 at any opening angle until the opening angle between the connector 3 and the first body 1 is zero.
[0137] Furthermore, by configuring a limiting component 25 on the hinge mechanism 2, the two rocker arms 23 can be locked by the limiting component 25 when they are extended to a preset angle, ensuring that the connecting member 3 and the first body 1 are maintained at the opening angle required by the user. The preset angle can be any value within the angle range of 0° to 180°, and there is no specific limitation on it.
[0138] For example, the preset angle can be 180°, which ensures that the electronic device can maintain the unfolded state shown in the above embodiments.
[0139] In some embodiments, such as Figure 6 As shown, the hinge mechanism 2 is equipped with a damping structure, which includes a damping shaft 221 and a damping oil tank 26. The damping oil tank 26 has an oil cavity and an insertion interface communicating with the oil cavity. One end of the rotating shaft 22 passes through the insertion interface and is connected to the damping shaft 221 located in the oil cavity. The oil cavity is filled with damping grease. The damping shaft 221 includes a central shaft and multiple ribs. The rotating shaft 22 is connected to the central shaft. The multiple ribs are arranged circumferentially around the central shaft, and each rib extends axially along the central shaft.
[0140] During the process of closing the two rocker arms 23 towards the zero position, the damping effect of the damping grease on the rotation of the damping shaft 221 can be used to limit the rotation speed of the rotating shaft 22 and the rocker arm 23 connected to the rotating shaft 22, thereby controlling the connector 3 to slowly fold towards the first body 1; in practical applications, the viscosity of the damping grease can be adjusted to achieve controllable adjustment of the return speed of the connector 3.
[0141] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the limiting component 25 includes:
[0142] Mounting base 251 is disposed on base 21;
[0143] The elastic member 252 has its first end abutting against the mounting base 251.
[0144] The limiting seat 253 is movably disposed along the rotation axis 22 of the rocker arm 23. The second end of the elastic member 252 abuts against the side of the limiting seat 253 away from the rocker arm 23. The limiting seat 253 is provided with a locking groove 250 on the side facing the rocker arm 23.
[0145] The rocker arm 23 has a protrusion 230 on one side facing the limiting seat 253, and the protrusion 230 abuts against the side of the limiting seat 253 away from the rocker arm 23; during the rotation of the rocker arm 23, the protrusion 230 can slide into the locking groove 250 or disengage from the locking groove 250.
[0146] It is understandable that the limiting seat 253 is provided with a first bushing, the first end of the rocker arm 23 is provided with a second bushing, the first bushing and the second bushing are spaced apart from each other, the rotating shaft 22 is connected to the mounting seat 251, and passes through the first bushing and the second bushing in sequence.
[0147] The elastic member 252 can be a spring, which is sleeved on the outside of the rotating shaft 22 and abuts against the first bushing of the mounting seat 251 and the limiting seat 253; the first bushing has a locking groove 250 at the end facing the second bushing, and the second bushing has a protrusion 230 at the end facing the first bushing.
[0148] Since the limiting component 25 locks the two rocker arms 23 when they are extended to a preset angle, during the process of the two rocker arms 23 extending from zero degrees to the preset angle, the second bushing rotates relative to the first bushing, and the protrusion 230 on the second bushing abuts against the first bushing. The protrusion 230 moves circumferentially relative to the first bushing and gradually approaches the locking groove 250. During this process, the elastic member 252 is in a compressed state.
[0149] When the protrusion 230 slides into the locking groove 250, the elastic member 252 drives the limiting seat 253 to move toward one side of the rocker arm 23 so that the protrusion 230 and the locking groove 250 remain locked. At this time, the opening angle between the connector 3 and the first body 1 will be maintained at a preset angle, such as 180°. When the user manually moves the connector 3 toward the first body 1 to fold, the two rocker arms 23 will rotate toward each other to force the protrusion 230 to disengage from the locking groove 250. At this time, under the torque of the torque member 24, the connector 3 will fold onto the first body 1.
[0150] In some embodiments, in order to ensure the stability and reliability of the rotational connection between the connector 3 and the first body 1, multiple hinge mechanisms 2 can be provided. Multiple hinge mechanisms 2 are arranged side by side along the axial direction, and multiple hinge mechanisms 2 can share a base 21.
[0151] In some embodiments, such as Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown, the first main body 1 has a first display surface 101, and the second main body 4 has a second display surface 401;
[0152] When the connector 3 and the second body 4 are connected by the detachable structure 5, the second display surface 401 is disposed facing the first display surface 101, or the second display surface 401 is disposed away from the first display surface 101.
[0153] It is understood that the first main body 1 has a first display surface 101 and a first back surface 102 arranged opposite to each other, and the second main body 4 has a second display surface 401 and a second back surface 402 arranged opposite to each other.
[0154] like Figure 10As shown, when installing the second body 4, the second display surface 401 of the second body 4 can be set facing the first display surface 101 of the first body 1. At this time, based on the hinge mechanism 2 between the connector 3 and the first body 1, it can be ensured that the second body 4 can be rotated relative to the first body 1 in an angle range of 0° to 180° in a forward-mounted form.
[0155] like Figure 11 As shown, when installing the second body 4, the second display surface 401 of the second body 4 can also be set away from the first display surface 101 of the first body 1, that is, the second back surface 402 of the second body 4 is set towards the first display surface 101 of the first body 1. At this time, based on the hinge mechanism 2 between the connector 3 and the first body 1, it can be ensured that the second body 4 is rotated relative to the first body 1 in an angle range of 0° to 180° in a back-mounted form.
[0156] As can be seen from the above, since the second main body 4 is installed in both directions relative to the connector 3, the second main body 4 can be rotated relative to the first main body 1 within an angle range of 0° to 360°, which greatly expands the dual-screen application scenarios of electronic devices.
[0157] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and not to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features.
