[0039] It should be noted that, unless otherwise stated, the technical or scientific terms used in this application shall have the ordinary meaning as understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application pertains.

[0040] Currently, checking battery status typically requires turning on or unlocking the device and obtaining this information through a battery icon in the system interface or other forms of battery display. This process can be time-consuming and provides a poor user experience, especially when you urgently need to know the remaining battery level and don't want to wait for the device to boot up or the screen to unlock.

[0041] To address the aforementioned technical issues, this disclosure proposes an electronic device that allows for quick viewing of the remaining battery power, thereby improving the user experience.

[0042] Example 1

[0043] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, an electronic device includes a device body 1, a power supply module 10, a first display module 2, and a second display module 3. The device body 1 has an accommodating space 9. The power supply module 10 is disposed in the accommodating space 9. The first display module 2 is connected to the power supply module 10 and can be used to output images. The second display module 3 is connected to the power supply module 10 and is independently disposed from the first display module 2. The second display module 3 is used to display information that can represent the remaining power of the electronic device. The first display module 2 and the second display module 3 are respectively independently electrically connected to the power supply module 10, so that the power supply module 10 can supply power to the second display module 3 without supplying power to the first display module 2.

[0044] The device body 1 refers to the overall structural foundation of an electronic device, having one or more spaces to accommodate internal components (such as batteries, display modules, etc.) and serving as a physical support platform for these components. The device body 1 can be a mounting carrier for components such as the power supply module 10, the first display module 2, and the second display module 3. It can be a rigid structure (such as a metal / plastic shell 5) or a flexible structure (such as a foldable / rollable device). In terms of design, it can include auxiliary structures such as bezels, back shells, brackets, and hinges. For example, the device body 1 of a laptop computer can include a C-side (keyboard) and a D-side (bottom shell), or it can be the remaining part excluding the B-side screen. The device body 1 of a mobile phone and tablet can be the remaining part excluding the screen. The device body 1 can also include auxiliary structures such as bezels, back shells, brackets, and hinges.

[0045] The power supply module 10 is a key component in electronic devices, responsible for providing the necessary power to the entire device or its internal subsystems. It may include not only energy storage devices (such as batteries) but also related circuits and components for managing and distributing power. In this disclosure, the power supply module 10 specifically refers to the portion located within the housing space 9 of the device body 1, capable of independently supplying power to the first display module 2 and the second display module 3, thereby supporting the device's need to display power information in different states. The power supply module 10 can be powered by a built-in battery and is suitable for portable electronic devices such as smartphones, tablets, and laptops. Such power supply modules 10 typically contain lithium-ion or lithium polymer batteries, which have high energy density, long lifespan, and light weight. The power supply module 10 may also integrate a battery management chip (BMS) to achieve precise control of the battery charging and discharging process, including temperature monitoring, overvoltage protection, and undervoltage protection, ensuring safe and stable battery operation. The power supply module 10 is also compatible with wireless charging standards and has corresponding receiving and conversion circuits, thereby enabling wireless charging of the battery. The power supply module 10 can also be combined with various energy input methods such as solar panels and kinetic energy harvesting devices, making it suitable for outdoor equipment or applications in special environments to increase the equipment's battery life.

[0046] The first display module 2 refers to the main display component in an electronic device used for outputting images. It can be what we call the "main screen," the primary interface for user interaction with the device. In the technical solution disclosed herein, the first display module 2 is responsible for routine operation and information display functions, such as application operation, video playback, and web browsing. This module is directly connected to the power supply module 10 and can operate independently of the second display module 3 (power display module). For example, the first display module 2 can be a liquid crystal display (LCD), which displays images by controlling the arrangement of liquid crystal molecules to adjust the intensity of transmitted light. It has relatively low cost, moderate power consumption, and a wide viewing angle, and is widely used in smartphones, tablets, and laptops at various price points. The first display module 2 can also be an organic light-emitting diode (OLED) display, where each pixel is a self-emissive organic material that emits light under the influence of current, resulting in higher contrast, more vibrant colors, and faster response times. Furthermore, since it does not require a backlight, it can be made very thin, making it suitable for high-end smartphones, smartwatches, and other portable devices that pursue the ultimate display effect. The first display module 2 can also be a micro LED display, similar to OLED, but using inorganic materials. Each pixel is composed of micron-sized LEDs, providing better brightness, color saturation, and lifespan than OLED, while also being more energy efficient. However, it is more difficult to manufacture and has a higher cost. Currently, it is mainly used in professional-grade displays or may be widely used in high-end consumer electronics products in the future. The first display module 2 can also be an electronic ink screen (E-Ink), which uses an electric field to drive the movement of charged particles within microcapsules to form text or patterns. It has low power consumption, is suitable for long-term reading, and has a reflectivity close to that of paper books, causing less eye strain. E-book readers are its most typical application, and it can also be used as an auxiliary display in other types of devices. The first display module 2 can also be a quantum dot LED display (QD-LED), combining the backlight technology of LCD and the self-emissive advantages of OLED. It uses quantum dot materials to improve color purity and efficiency, providing a wider color gamut and higher brightness compared to traditional LCDs, while maintaining good energy efficiency, making it suitable for the high-end TV and monitor market.

[0047] The second display module 3 refers to an independent display unit 31 in an electronic device specifically designed to display information indicating the device's remaining battery power. Unlike the first display module 2 (i.e., the main display screen), the primary purpose of the second display module 3 is to allow users to quickly check the device's battery status without turning on or unlocking the device, thereby improving the user experience. It is directly connected to the power supply module 10 and can operate independently when the first display module 2 is not activated. The second display module 3 can be an LED indicator, using one or more LEDs to represent the battery status. Information can be conveyed through color changes (e.g., green for high battery, red for low battery) or flashing patterns, resulting in low cost, low power consumption, and a simple structure. For example, the second display module 3 can be an LED strip, displaying the battery status through the strip's display area, or a group of multiple LEDs, displaying the battery status through the number of LEDs displayed. The second display module 3 can also be a small LCD screen, using a segment or dot-matrix LCD to display the battery percentage or other relevant information, providing more detail and relatively lower power consumption compared to LED indicator lights. The second display module 3 can be an e-ink screen. Utilizing e-ink technology, it can continuously display power information with low power consumption, and can even maintain the display content when the power is off. It has extremely low power consumption and can be clearly read even in direct sunlight, making it very suitable for displaying static information for a long time.

[0048] The first display module 2 and the second display module 3 are independently electrically connected to the power supply module 10, which means that each display module has its own independent power supply line. The power supply module can have multiple independent power output channels. The motherboard or controller can control whether a certain display module is powered on or off. They can work without depending on each other and without affecting each other.

[0049] This disclosure provides a second display module 3, which is independently configured from the first display module 2 and independently electrically connected to the power supply module 10. This allows the power supply module 10 to independently power the second display module 3 even when the first display module 2 is not powered (e.g., the electronic device is powered off). Consequently, the second display module 3 displays information that indicates the remaining battery power of the electronic device, allowing users to quickly check the battery status of the electronic device without turning it on or unlocking it, thus improving the user experience.

[0050] For example, when users only need to know the current battery level without needing to use the device's functions, they can check the battery level by activating the second display module 3 without fully waking the device or turning on the main screen. If the first display module 2 malfunctions or is undergoing maintenance (such as software updates or hardware replacements), the second display module 3 can still function, providing necessary status information to the user or technicians. In outdoor activities or emergencies, users may want to obtain critical information with minimal power consumption; in such cases, activating only the second display module 3 to check the battery level is particularly important.

[0051] like Figure 3 As shown, in some modified embodiments of this application, the second display module 3 includes a plurality of display units 31 and a controller 32; the controller 32 is connected to the power supply module 10 and is used to control the number of display units 31 in the second display module 3 in the working state to be positively correlated with the remaining power of the electronic device.

[0052] Display unit 31 is the basic visual output unit constituting the second display module 3, used to express the status information of electronic devices (such as remaining battery power) in a visual form. Each display unit 31 can be an independent light-emitting element or a small display screen, such as an LED, a segment LCD module, or a micro OLED dot matrix. Multiple display units 31 are arranged and combined according to certain rules to form a complete display interface. Display units 31 can be individually lit or turned off; display units 31 can also support different colors, brightness, or pattern changes; display units 31 can also represent battery level through quantity or state changes (e.g., the more units lit, the higher the battery power); display units 31 can be designed in various forms such as linear arrangement, ring distribution, and matrix layout. For example, a ring of LEDs can be arranged on the side of a smartwatch, with the number of lit LEDs representing the battery percentage; five segment LCD modules can also be used, lit sequentially to represent 20%, 40%, 60%, 80%, and 100% battery power; the number of lit small squares corresponding to the battery power can also be dynamically displayed on a micro OLED screen. The display unit 31 may also include a color conversion component, which can change the display color of the display unit 31; the color conversion component is connected to the device body 1, and the device body 1 sends a second signal to the color conversion component, which converts part or all of the colors of the display unit 31.

[0053] The controller 32 is the core component controlling the operation of the second display module 3. Connected to the power supply module 10, it dynamically adjusts the number of display units 31 in operation based on the remaining battery power of the electronic device. It can be an integrated circuit (IC) with processing capabilities, capable of receiving power signals from the battery management system and controlling the lighting strategy of the display units 31 accordingly. The controller 32 can receive power data from the power supply module 10 or the battery management system, calculate the number of display units 31 to be lit based on the power value, and realize the logical relationship that "the number of display units 31 is positively correlated with the remaining battery power." The controller 32 can integrate functions such as low-power mode, touch response, and animation effects; the controller 32 operates independently of the main system and can work without waking up the first display module 2.

[0054] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, in some modified embodiments of this application, the second display module 3 further includes a detection unit 8, which is connected to the controller 32 and is used to generate and output a first signal when the detection conditions are met. The first signal is used to cause the controller 32 to control the second display module 3 to be in display state to display information that can characterize the remaining power of the electronic device.

[0055] The detection unit 8 is a sensor or module capable of sensing user operation or changes in device status and generating a first signal when specific conditions are met. This signal is used to notify the controller 32 to activate the display function. The detection unit 8 can monitor the external environment or user behavior in real time; when preset "detection conditions" are met, it generates a trigger signal (i.e., the first signal) and sends it to the controller 32, activating the second display module 3 to enter the display state. The detection unit 8 can be a touch sensor, such as a capacitive touch sensing area, triggered when the user lightly touches a certain area of ​​the device. The detection unit 8 can also be a pressure sensor, such as a pressure sensor, triggered when the power button or a specific area is pressed; in some specific embodiments, the detection unit 8 can also include a piezoelectric vibration sensor. By recognizing the vibration caused by a human hand tapping, the second display module 3 can be switched from an off / breathing state to a remaining battery progress bar mode by tapping the area where the piezoelectric vibration sensor is located twice to quickly check the remaining battery power and decide whether to carry an adapter or charge it as soon as possible. The detection unit 8 can also be a motion sensor, such as an accelerometer or gyroscope, which can trigger the display when the device is shaken or picked up.

[0056] The display status refers to the state in which the second display module 3 switches from a closed or standby state (e.g., off / breathing state) to actively outputting visual information. The display status can be momentarily lit, for example, automatically turning off after displaying for a few seconds; the display status can also be constantly lit, for example, set to always display battery level and time; whether it is constantly lit depends on the device's power consumption strategy and user experience requirements.

[0057] When the electronic device is powered off or in standby mode, the second display module 3 can also be in a powered-off or standby state. The second display module 3 is only illuminated when needed, allowing it to be in display mode and extending battery life. For example, the controller 32 can control the second display module 3 to be in a breathing mode and a real-time display mode. When the electronic device is in standby and / or sleep mode, the second display module 3 is in a breathing mode, with its brightness gradually increasing to a maximum and then gradually decreasing. The detection unit 8 can generate a first signal under the action of a force and transmit the first signal to the controller 32, causing the second display module 3 to switch to display mode and display the remaining battery power of the device body 1 in real time.

[0058] The second display module 3, by adding a detection unit 8, achieves intelligent perception of user intent or device status, and triggers the controller 32 to light up the display unit 31 by generating a first signal, thereby dynamically displaying the remaining battery information of the electronic device. This design allows the device to provide a fast, convenient, and energy-saving way to check battery level without turning on the main screen, significantly improving the user experience and the level of device intelligence, and has good practicality and promotional value.

[0059] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in some modified embodiments of this application, the first display module 2 is rotatably connected to the device body 1, a display surface is provided on the first side of the first display module 2 to output images, and the second display module 3 is provided on the second side of the first display module 2; wherein, the first side and the second side are two sides of the first display module 2 that are opposite to each other.

[0060] The first display module 2 is rotatably connected to the device body 1, meaning that the first display module 2 can rotate or open / close relative to the device body 1. This is suitable for foldable phones, flip phones, laptops, and other similar devices. The rotation angle can be 90°, 180°, or even 360°, depending on the product design requirements. For example, when the main screen of a foldable phone is folded and hidden, the user can check the battery level or notifications through the second display module 3 on the back. When a laptop screen is flipped, the second display module 3 on the back can provide quick status feedback. The second display module 3 is located on the back of the first display module 2, without occupying additional space on the device body 1, thus enabling intuitive and convenient display of basic information such as the remaining battery level even when the main screen is not unfolded or in use.

[0061] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in some modified embodiments of this application, when the first display module 2 is rotated to a first position relative to the device body 1, the display surface is relatively close to the device body 1, the electronic device is in a non-working state, the first display module 2 does not output information, the detection unit 8 can generate a first signal when the detection conditions are met, and transmit the first signal to the detection unit 8 so that the controller 32 controls the second display module 3 to be in a display state to display information that can characterize the remaining power of the electronic device; when the first display module 2 is rotated to a second position relative to the device body 1, the display surface is relatively far from the device body 1, the electronic device is in a working state, the first display module 2 outputs information, and the second display module 3 is not working.

[0062] The first position refers to the first display module 2 rotating to a specific angle relative to the device body 1; at this time, the display surface is close to the device body 1 (e.g., the main screen is covered when folded); the device enters a non-working state or a low-power standby state. The second position refers to the first display module 2 rotating to another specific angle, with the display surface away from the device body 1 (e.g., unfolded state); the device enters a working state, and the user can use the main screen normally; the first display module 2 outputs images normally, and the second display module 3 is turned off or not working to avoid interference. For example, when a foldable phone is folded, the main screen is covered, which is the first position; tapping the back can wake up the second display module 3 to check the battery level; when the foldable phone is fully unfolded or partially unfolded, it is in the second position, the main screen is working, and the second display module 3 is not working. When a flip laptop is in the first position, the screen flips to the back to fit against the keyboard, and the second display module 3 displays the battery level on side A for easy viewing by the user.

[0063] By designing the first display module 2 and the device body 1 as a rotating connection structure, and dynamically controlling the working state of the device and the start / stop mechanism of the display module according to the change of its position (first position / second position), the auxiliary display function can be automatically determined based on the position of the first display module 2. Key information can still be quickly obtained in the non-working state without the need to power on or unlock. The second display module 3 is only lit when needed, reducing overall power consumption and providing a more natural human-computer interaction method that conforms to the user's intuitive operating habits.

[0064] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, in some modified embodiments of this application, a housing 5 is also included, and the first display module 2 and the second display module 3 are disposed on opposite sides of the housing 5; the controller 32 and the detection unit 8 are disposed inside the housing 5, and the controller 32 is disposed on the side of the second display module 3 close to the first display module 2; wherein, the controller 32 and the display unit 31 are arranged along a first direction, and the first direction and the thickness direction of the first display module 2 satisfy the perpendicular condition.

[0065] The housing 5 refers to the external structural component or frame used to house and support the core components inside the electronic device (such as the controller 32, detection unit 8, display module, etc.). It not only provides physical protection but also offers installation locations and structural support for multiple functional modules. The housing 5 can be part of the main body 1 or exist relatively independently of it. For example, in a laptop, the housing 5 can support sides A and B, while the main body 1 supports sides C and D. The housing 5 serves as the mounting base for the first display module 2 and the second display module 3. Its internal space can accommodate the controller 32, detection unit 8, battery, etc., and can be made of metal, plastic, composite materials, etc. It supports multi-module integrated design and adapts to complex functional requirements. The first display module 2 and the second display module 3 are respectively positioned on opposite sides of the housing 5; the first display module 2 acts as the main screen, facing the user and outputting images, while the second display module 3 acts as an auxiliary display screen, positioned on the other side to display information such as battery level, thus facilitating viewing of battery information when the first display module 2 is obscured or hidden. The controller 32 is housed within the housing 5 and positioned on the side of the second display module 3 closest to the first display module 2. This means that the controller 32 is located between the two display modules, in a concealed state, which enhances aesthetics and facilitates signal transmission, power management, and a compact structural design. The detection unit 8 is connected to the controller 32 and is also housed within the housing 5, further enhancing aesthetics and protecting the detection unit 8.

[0066] The first direction being perpendicular to the thickness direction of the first display module 2 means that the first direction and the thickness direction of the first display module 2 are approximately perpendicular, for example, the included angle between them can be between 80 degrees and 100 degrees. The controller 32 and the display unit 31 are arranged along the first direction. This arrangement helps to make more rational use of space, reduce the stacking thickness, achieve a thinner and lighter design, and facilitate wiring and heat dissipation.

[0067] like Figure 3 As shown, in some modified embodiments of this application, a motherboard is also included, and the second display module 2 further includes a connector 33, which is connected between the motherboard and the controller 32, and the connector 33 and the controller 32 are arranged along a first direction.

[0068] Connector 33 is a physical interface component connecting the motherboard and the controller, used for power transmission and signal communication. For example, connector 33 can be an FPC connector or a board-to-board connector. By connecting the connector to the motherboard, the second display module can have more complex display states according to user needs when powered on. For example, the motherboard can control the second display module to enter the aforementioned breathing and flashing states, and the lighting effects of the second display module can be personalized through an APP (application). The arrangement of connector 33 and controller 32 along the first direction reduces the space occupied in the vertical direction (the thickness direction of the display module), making the electronic device thinner and lighter.

[0069] like Figure 1 As shown, in some modified embodiments of this application, the device body 1 further includes a charging interface 11, which is connected to the power supply module 10. The charging interface 11 can be connected to an external power source to put the device body 1 into a charging state. When the device body 1 is in a charging state, the second display module 3 displays the remaining power of the electronic device.

[0070] The charging port 11 is the physical connection port between the device and an external power source, used to transmit power to charge the power supply module 10. For example, the charging port 11 can be a USB (Universal Serial Bus) interface, a magnetic interface, or a wireless charging module. When the device is connected to an external power source through the charging port 11, the charging port 11 transfers electrical energy to the power supply module 10. The power supply module 10 detects the charging status and generates a corresponding signal. The controller 32 receives the signal and determines that the device is in a charging state. The controller 32 activates the second display module 3, which displays the remaining power information (such as the number of lit items, percentage, animation effects, etc.) according to the current power level. Even if the user has not unlocked the device or turned on the main screen, they can intuitively see the current power level change, making it convenient for the user to monitor the charging status in real time.

[0071] like Figure 1 As shown, in some modified embodiments of this application, a rotating shaft and an image acquisition device 7 are also included. The first display module 2 and the device body 1 are rotatably connected by the rotating shaft. The second display module 3 is disposed in the first region 4 of the housing 5 away from the rotating shaft. The image acquisition device 7 is disposed in the second region 6 of the housing 5. The first region 4 and the second region 6 are respectively disposed on both sides of the housing 5.

[0072] A hinge is a mechanical structure used to enable relative rotation or folding between the first display module 2 and the main body 1. It is commonly used in foldable screen phones, 2-in-1 laptops, and other devices. The hinge supports adjustable opening angles and can also integrate flexible printed circuit board (FPC) traces, providing structural stability and durability. The image acquisition device 7 refers to a camera module or other components with image acquisition capabilities, such as a front-facing camera and an infrared camera, which can be used for functions such as taking photos, video calls, and facial recognition.

[0073] The first area 4 refers to the area on the housing 5 where the second display module 3 is located. This area allows the user to quickly view key information (such as battery level) without opening the main screen or fully operating the device. The first area 4 is located away from the hinge, making it convenient for the user to view the device when it is closed or held in hand. The second area 6 refers to the area on the housing 5 where the image acquisition device 7 is located, which is the location of the camera or other sensor modules with image / video acquisition capabilities.

[0074] The introduction of a rotating shaft enables flexible rotational connection between the first display module 2 and the main body of the device 1. Through reasonable layout, the second display module 3 and the image acquisition device 7 are respectively set on both sides of the housing 5. The two sides of the housing 5 respectively undertake the display and acquisition functions, thereby improving the space utilization rate.

[0075] like Figure 1 As shown, in some modified embodiments of this application, the first region 4 is an elongated region, and the outer contour of the second display module 3 is elongated. The elongated design is suitable for use on the edge or narrow area of ​​the device, maximizing the use of limited space without occupying too much visual focus, maintaining a simple and elegant overall appearance, and can be easily integrated into existing device designs without significantly altering the original structure.

[0076] like Figure 5 As shown, in some modified embodiments of this application, the first region 4 is an annular region, and the outer contour of the second display module 3 is annular. The first region 4 is an annular region disposed on the housing 5, and the outer contour of the second display module 3 is also annular, so it can be adapted to be embedded in the annular region. The annular design has visual appeal, enhancing the product's technological feel and recognizability. The annular outer contour of the second display module 3 can be set around the image acquisition device 7, further improving space utilization.

[0077] The above are merely specific embodiments of this application, but the scope of protection of this application is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in this application should be included within the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, the scope of protection of this application should be determined by the scope of the claims.
