[0009] In this embodiment, by providing a first limiting groove on the first mounting frame, when the rubber bag is formed on the frame, a first clamping portion is formed in the first limiting groove, and the first clamping portion is clamped with the first limiting groove, so that the first limiting groove serves to limit the first clamping portion, thereby preventing the rubber bag from separating from the frame when a force is applied to the rubber bag in a direction perpendicular to the first side wall. At the same time, by providing a rubber pulling groove on the first mounting frame, when the rubber bag is formed on the frame, a protrusion is formed in the rubber pulling groove, and the protrusion is clamped with the rubber pulling groove, thereby preventing the rubber bag from separating from the frame when a force is applied to the rubber bag in the width direction of the first side wall. This can further improve the stability of the connection between the rubber bag and the frame, prevent the rubber bag from separating from the frame in the axial area, and achieve a rubber pulling effect between the frame and the rubber bag.

[0010] In one embodiment, the side surface of the first rib is an inclined surface.

In this embodiment, by providing multiple first ribs along the length direction of the first side wall and forming multiple first limiting grooves, a first clamping portion is formed in each first limiting groove. Therefore, when a force is applied to the rubber bag in a direction perpendicular to the first side wall, each first limiting groove limits the corresponding first clamping portion, thereby further preventing the rubber bag from separating from the frame and improving the stability of the connection between the rubber bag and the frame.

[0017] In one possible embodiment, there are multiple glue pulling grooves, and the glue pulling grooves are recessed in the first side wall, and the multiple glue pulling grooves are spaced apart along the length direction of the first side wall; there are multiple protrusions, and the multiple protrusions are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with the multiple glue pulling grooves, one protrusion is formed in one glue pulling groove, and along the width direction of the first side wall, the protrusion is clamped with the corresponding glue pulling groove.

[0018] In this embodiment, a plurality of rubber pulling grooves are provided on the first side wall along the length direction of the first side wall, and a plurality of protrusions are provided on the second side wall along the length direction of the first side wall, so that the frame can limit the rubber bag at multiple positions in the length direction of the first side wall, thereby further preventing the rubber bag from detaching from the rubber bag along the width direction of the first side wall, and further improving the stability of the connection between the rubber bag and the frame.

[0019] In one possible embodiment, the first mounting frame further includes a second rib, arranged parallel to and spaced apart from the first rib along the width of the first sidewall.

The back cover 300 is fixedly connected to the middle frame 200. The housing 510 includes a first housing 520 and a second housing 530. The first housing 520 and the second housing 530 are arranged side by side. The middle frame 200 includes a first middle frame 100 and a second middle frame 110. The back cover 300 includes a first back cover 310 and a second back cover 320. The first back cover 310 is mounted on the first middle frame 100 and together they form the first housing 520. The second back cover 320 is mounted on the second middle frame 110 and together they form the second housing 530. In other embodiments, the middle frame 200 and the back cover 300 may be a single piece. That is, the first back cover 310 and the first middle frame 100 are a single piece, and the second back cover 320 and the second middle frame 110 are a single piece.

[0053] Please refer to FIG. 3 , which is a schematic structural diagram of the middle frame 200 of the electronic device 500 shown in FIG. 2 .

[0054] The first middle frame 100 is provided with a first receiving groove 101, and the second middle frame 110 is provided with a second receiving groove 120. The first middle frame 100 and the second middle frame 110 are arranged side by side, and the first receiving groove 101 and the second receiving groove 120 are connected, together forming a receiving groove 130. The rotating shaft 540 is installed in the receiving groove 130 and is connected to the first middle frame 100 and the second middle frame 110 to achieve a rotational connection between the first middle frame 100 and the second middle frame 110. When the first middle frame 100 rotates, the rotating shaft 540 drives the second middle frame 110 to rotate, thereby achieving the folding or unfolding of the electronic device 500.

[0055] The display screen 400 includes a first portion 410, a second portion 420, and a foldable portion 430. The foldable portion 430 is located between the first portion 410 and the second portion 420, and the foldable portion 430 can be bent along the Y direction. The first portion 410, the second portion 420, and the foldable portion 430 together constitute the display screen 400. In this embodiment, the display screen 400 is a flexible display screen 400. The display screen 400 is mounted on the middle frame 200 and fixedly connected to the middle frame 200. The first portion 410 is mounted on the first middle frame 100, the second portion 420 is mounted on the second middle frame 110, and the foldable portion 430 is arranged opposite to the rotating shaft 540. When the first middle frame 100 and the second middle frame 110 rotate relative to each other through the rotating shaft 540, the first portion 410 and the second portion 420 of the display screen 400 are driven to rotate relative to each other, and the foldable portion 430 is bent.

[0056] The back cover 300 is mounted on the side of the middle frame 200 facing away from the display screen 400. The first back cover 310 is mounted on the first middle frame 100 and fixedly connected to the first middle frame 100, and the second back cover 320 is mounted on the second middle frame 110 and fixedly connected to the second middle frame 110.

[0057] The first middle frame 100 and the second middle frame 110 rotate relative to each other via the hinge 540. As the first and second middle frames 100 and 110 rotate toward each other, they drive the first and second back covers 310 and 320 to rotate toward each other, and in turn, the display screen 400 folds, placing the electronic device 500 in a folded state. When the electronic device 500 is in the folded state, the foldable portion 430 of the display screen 400 bends, with the first portion 410 and the second portion 420 positioned relative to each other. At this point, the display screen 400 is positioned between the first and second middle frames 100 and 110, significantly reducing the risk of damage to the display screen 400 and effectively protecting it.

[0058] When the first middle frame 100 and the second middle frame 110 rotate away from each other, they drive the first back cover 310 and the second back cover 320 to rotate away from each other, and the display screen 400 to unfold, placing the electronic device 500 in the unfolded state. When the electronic device 500 is in the unfolded state, the foldable portion 430 unfolds, and the first portion 410 and the second portion 420 unfold relative to each other. At this point, the display surface of the display screen 400 is generally flat, with a large display area, thus achieving a large-screen display for the electronic device 500 and improving the user experience.

[0059] In one embodiment, the electronic device 500 further includes a second display screen. A single back cover 300 is provided. The back cover 300 is mounted on and fixedly connected to the first middle frame 100, and the second display screen is mounted on and fixedly connected to the second middle frame 110. In other words, in this embodiment, the second display screen replaces the second back cover 320, allowing the electronic device 500 to function normally in a closed state.

[0060] It should be noted that the first middle frame 100 and the second middle frame 110 are substantially symmetrical or completely symmetrical structures. The structure of the first middle frame 100 is described in detail below.

[0061] Please refer to Figures 4 to 6. Figure 4 is a structural diagram of the first middle frame 100 in the middle frame 200 shown in Figure 3, Figure 5 is a schematic diagram of the exploded structure of the first middle frame 100 shown in Figure 4, and Figure 6 is a schematic diagram of the structure of the frame body 10 in the first middle frame 100 shown in Figure 4.

[0062] The first middle frame 100 includes a frame body 10 and a rubber coating 40. The rubber coating 40 is formed on the surface of the frame body 10 and is fixedly connected to the frame body 10. The frame body 10 includes a middle plate 20 and a first mounting frame 30.

The middle plate 20 also includes a first side portion 24, a second side portion 25, a third side portion 26 and a fourth side portion 27. The first side portion 24 and the fourth side portion 27 are arranged opposite to each other and are respectively located on opposite sides of the X direction. The second side portion 25 and the third side portion 26 are arranged opposite to each other and are respectively located on opposite sides of the Y direction. The first side portion 24 and the fourth side portion 27 are connected between the second side portion 25 and the third side portion 26. It should be noted that the first side portion 24, the second side portion 25, the third side portion 26 and the fourth side portion 27 are edge portions of the middle plate 20.

[0063] Please refer to FIG. 7 , which is an enlarged structural diagram of the frame 10 in area A shown in FIG. 6 .

[0064] The first mounting frame 30 includes a main body 31 and a rib 32. The main body 31 is arranged side by side with the middle plate 20 along the X direction and is fixedly connected to the fourth side portion 27 of the middle plate 20. The main body 31 is provided with a first mounting groove 33. The first mounting groove 33 is L-shaped. The extension direction of the first mounting groove 33 is parallel to the Y direction. The first mounting groove 33 includes a first bottom wall 331 and a first side wall 332. The first side wall 332 is fixedly connected to the first bottom wall 331. In this embodiment, the first side wall 332 is parallel to the YZ plane. The first side wall 332 may also have a smaller angle with the YZ plane, for example, 5 degrees or 10 degrees. In this embodiment, the first side wall 332 is perpendicular to the first bottom wall 331. In other embodiments, the angle between the first side wall 332 and the first bottom wall 331 may also be slightly greater than 90 degrees, or slightly less than 90 degrees.

[0065] There are multiple groups of ribs 32. Multiple groups of ribs 32 are protruding from the first sidewall 332 and are spaced apart along the Y direction on the first sidewall 332. Each group of ribs 32 includes a first rib 34 and a second rib 35. The first rib 34 includes a first surface 341, a first side surface 343, a second side surface 344, a third side surface 345, and a fourth side surface 346. The first surface 341 is the surface of the first rib 34 away from the first sidewall 332. The first side surface 343 and the second side surface 344 are disposed opposite each other and are located on opposite sides of the Y direction. The third side surface 345 and the fourth side surface 346 are disposed opposite each other and are located on opposite sides of the Z direction. The first side surface 343, the third side surface 345, the second side surface 344, and the fourth side surface 346 are connected end to end and are all connected between the first surface 341 and the first sidewall 332.

[0066] The first rib 34 is provided with a first retaining groove 36. The first retaining groove 36 includes a first sub-retaining groove 361 and a second sub-retaining groove 362. From the first surface 341 to the first sidewall 332, the first side surface 343 is recessed inwardly toward the first rib 34, forming the first sub-retaining groove 361 between the first sidewall 332 and the first sidewall 332. From the first surface 341 to the first sidewall 332, the second side surface 344 is recessed inwardly toward the first rib 34, forming the second sub-retaining groove 362 between the first sidewall 332 and the first sidewall 332. It will be appreciated that the edge of the first rib 34 near the first side surface 343 serves as the wall of the first sub-retaining groove 361, while the edge of the first rib 34 near the second side surface 344 serves as the wall of the second sub-retaining groove 362. Both the wall of the first sub-retaining groove 361 and the wall of the second sub-retaining groove 362 face the first sidewall 332.

[0067] In this embodiment, the first side surface 343 and the second side surface 344 are both curved surfaces. It is understandable that by setting a chamfer on the first side surface 343, the first sub-limiting groove 361 can be obtained. By setting a chamfer on the second side surface 344, the second sub-limiting groove 362 can be obtained. The cross-section of the first rib 34 along the XY plane is roughly trapezoidal. In other embodiments, the first side surface 343 and the second side surface 344 can also be inclined surfaces, and the cross-section of the first rib 34 along the XY plane is trapezoidal. Alternatively, the first side surface 343 is a curved surface and the second side surface 344 is an inclined surface; alternatively, the first side surface 343 is an inclined surface and the second side surface 344 is a curved surface. The first sub-limiting groove 361 and the second sub-limiting groove 362 are both used to clamp and connect with the rubber bag 40 to prevent the rubber bag 40 from detaching from the frame 10 along the X direction.

[0068] In one embodiment, the first retaining groove 36 may further include a fifth sub-restricting groove and a sixth sub-restricting groove (not shown). From the first surface 341 to the first sidewall 332, the third side surface 345 is recessed toward the first rib 34 and forms a fifth sub-restricting groove with the first sidewall 332. From the first surface 341 to the first sidewall 332, the fourth side surface 346 is recessed toward the first rib 34 and forms a sixth sub-restricting groove with the first sidewall 332. The fifth and sixth sub-restricting grooves are used to engage the rubber overmolding 40, further enhancing the stability of the connection between the rubber overmolding 40 and the frame 10.

[0069] The structure of the second rib 35 is identical or substantially identical to that of the first rib 34. The second rib 35 is fixedly connected to the first sidewall 332 and is arranged side by side with and spaced apart from the first rib 34 along the width direction of the first sidewall 332.

[0083] Please refer to FIG. 4 and FIG. 10 . FIG. 10 is a schematic diagram of a partial cross-sectional structure of the first middle frame 100 shown in FIG. 4 along the CC direction.

[0084] The rubber cover 40 is formed on the frame 10, the first frame 41, the second frame 42, and the third frame 43 are all formed on the middle plate 20, and the second mounting frame 50 is formed on the first mounting frame 30.

One protrusion 59 is located in one glue pulling groove 38 and is clamped and connected to the glue pulling groove 38. The first rib 34 is arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with the first groove 53, and one first rib 34 is located in one first groove 53.

The clamping protrusions 503 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with the clamping slots 39. One clamping protrusion 503 is located in one first clamping slot 39 and is clamped with the corresponding first clamping slot 39.

[0086] It is understood that after the encapsulation 40 is formed on the frame 10, the outer side surfaces of the first frame 41, the outer side surfaces of the second frame 42, and the outer side surfaces of the third frame 43 are exposed from the side of the electronic device 500, and thus constitute the frame of the electronic device 500. The second mounting groove 501 is the first receiving groove 101 of the electronic device 500 and is used to mount the rotating shaft 540 of the electronic device 500.

[0087] It should be noted that the rubber coating 40 is formed on the frame 10 by injection molding. The above-mentioned connection relationships are all directly formed during the injection molding. The specific processing method is described in detail below.

[0088] The middle frame 200 in this embodiment is composed of a metal frame 10 and a plastic coating 40. Compared with a pure metal middle frame 200, the middle frame 200 in this embodiment is lighter and can reduce weight, which is conducive to achieving lightweight electronic equipment 500 and improving user experience. For example, compared with an aluminum profile middle frame 200, the middle frame 200 provided in this embodiment can achieve a weight reduction of about 11%. In addition, in this embodiment, by coating the outer surface of the metal frame 10 with the coating 40, the frame 10 can be protected, preventing the middle frame 200 from being corroded by salt spray and the like, thereby improving the corrosion resistance of the middle frame 200, allowing the electronic device 500 to be used stably without failure in a corrosive environment, thereby improving the durability of the electronic device 500.

[0089] While maintaining the protective effect and structural strength of the shaft area of ​​the middle frame 200, the middle frame 200 provided in this embodiment requires less space. For example, in this embodiment, when the thickness of the rubber coating 40 is 0.25 mm and the thickness of the frame 10 is 0.65 mm, the protective effect and structural strength of the shaft area can be achieved, thereby achieving a lighter and thinner electronic device 500. It should be noted that the "shaft area" referred to here is the area where the rotating shaft 540 is installed, that is, the area where the first mounting frame 30 and the second mounting frame 50 are located.

[0090] In this embodiment, by setting the first limiting groove 36, the second limiting groove 37 and the glue pulling groove 38 in the first mounting frame 30, when the glue bag 40 is formed on the surface of the frame body 10, the first clamping portion 55 is correspondingly formed in the first limiting groove 36, and the first limiting groove 36 and the first clamping portion 55 are clamped and connected in the direction perpendicular to the first side wall 332 (X direction), the second limiting groove 37 is correspondingly formed in the second clamping portion 58, the second limiting groove 37 and the second clamping portion 58 are clamped and connected in the X direction, the glue pulling groove 38 is correspondingly formed with a protrusion 59, and the glue pulling The groove 38 and the protrusion 59 are connected in a clamping manner in the width direction (Z direction) of the first side wall 332. The first limiting groove 36 and the second limiting groove 37 limit the rubber bag 40 in the X direction, thereby preventing the rubber bag 40 from separating from the frame 10 in the X direction. The rubber pulling groove 38 limits the rubber bag 40 in the Z direction, thereby preventing the rubber bag 40 from separating from the frame 10 in the Z direction. This improves the stability of the connection between the rubber bag 40 and the frame 10, prevents the rubber bag 40 from separating from the frame 10 in the axial area, and realizes a rubber pulling effect between the frame 10 and the rubber bag 40. It should be explained that the "rubber pulling effect" mentioned here refers to the effect that the rubber bag 40 is not easy to separate from the frame 10 when an action is applied to the rubber bag 40.

[0091] Among them, by providing the first rib 34 and the first limiting groove 36 on the first mounting frame 30, when the rubber bag 40 is formed on the surface of the frame body 10, the outer surface of the first rib 34 forms a first groove 53 correspondingly, and the first clamping portion 55 is formed correspondingly in the first limiting groove 36, so that when a force is applied to the rubber bag 40 in a direction perpendicular to the first side wall 332, that is, in the X direction, the first clamping portion 55 abuts against the groove wall of the first limiting groove 36, and the groove wall of the first limiting groove 36 limits the rubber bag 40, thereby preventing the rubber bag 40 from separating from the frame body 10 in the X direction. At the same time, in this embodiment, by setting a plurality of first ribs 34 along the Y direction on the first side wall 332 and forming a plurality of first limiting grooves 36, and setting a plurality of first grooves 53 along the Y direction on the second side wall 521 and forming a plurality of first clamping portions 55, the frame 10 can limit the rubber bag 40 at multiple positions in the Y direction, thereby further preventing the rubber bag 40 from detaching from the rubber bag 40 in the direction perpendicular to the first side wall 332, and further improving the stability of the connection between the rubber bag 40 and the frame 10.

[0092] Furthermore, by providing a second rib 35 and a second limiting groove 37 on the first mounting frame 30, when the rubber bag 40 is formed on the surface of the frame body 10, a second groove 56 is correspondingly formed on the outer surface of the second rib, and a second clamping portion 58 is correspondingly formed in the second limiting groove 37. Thus, when a force is applied to the rubber bag 40 in a direction perpendicular to the first side wall 332, the second clamping portion 58 abuts against the groove wall of the second limiting groove 37, and the groove wall of the second limiting groove 37 further limits the rubber bag 40, thereby further improving the stability of the connection between the rubber bag 40 and the frame body 10, and further preventing the rubber bag 40 from detaching from the frame body 10 in the X direction. At the same time, in this embodiment, by setting a plurality of second ribs 35 along the Y direction on the first side wall 332 and forming a plurality of second limiting grooves 37, and setting a plurality of second grooves 56 along the Y direction on the second side wall 521, and forming a plurality of second clamping portions 58, the frame 10 can limit the rubber bag 40 at multiple positions in the Y direction, thereby further preventing the rubber bag 40 from detaching from the rubber bag 40 in a direction perpendicular to the first side wall 332, and further improving the stability of the connection between the rubber bag 40 and the frame 10.

[0093] In this embodiment, by providing the adhesive drawing groove 38 in the frame 10, when the adhesive bag 40 is formed on the surface of the frame 10, a corresponding protrusion 59 is formed in the adhesive drawing groove 38. Therefore, when a force is applied to the adhesive bag 40 along the Z direction, the abutting wall of the adhesive drawing groove 38 abuts against the protrusion 59, and the abutting wall acts as a limiter for the adhesive bag 40, thereby preventing the adhesive bag 40 from separating from the frame 10 along the Z direction. For example, when a force is applied to the adhesive bag 40 along the negative direction of the Z axis, the protrusion 59 abuts against the first abutting wall 381, which acts as a limiter for the protrusion 59, thereby preventing the adhesive bag 40 from separating from the frame 10 along the negative direction of the Z axis. When a force is applied to the adhesive bag 40 along the positive direction of the Z axis, the protrusion 59 abuts against the second abutting wall 382, ​​which acts as a limiter for the protrusion 59, thereby preventing the adhesive bag 40 from separating from the frame 10 along the positive direction of the Z axis.

[0094] At the same time, in this embodiment, by setting a plurality of glue pulling grooves 38 along the Y direction on the first side wall 332 and setting a plurality of protrusions 59 along the Y direction on the second side wall 521, the frame 10 can limit the rubber bag 40 at multiple positions in the Y direction, thereby further preventing the rubber bag 40 from detaching from the rubber bag 40 along the width direction of the first side wall 332, and further improving the stability of the connection between the rubber bag 40 and the frame 10.

[0095] In addition, in this embodiment, by providing a slot 39 on the first side wall 332, when the rubber bag 40 is formed on the surface of the frame 10, a corresponding holding protrusion 503 is formed in the slot 39, so that when a force is applied to the rubber bag 40 in a direction perpendicular to the first side wall 332, that is, when a force is applied to the rubber bag 40 in the X direction, the holding protrusion 503 abuts against the slot wall of the slot 39, and the slot wall of the slot 39 limits the holding protrusion 503, thereby further preventing the rubber bag 40 from detaching from the frame 10 in the X direction, and further improving the stability of the connection between the rubber bag 40 and the frame 10.

Furthermore, by injection molding the overmolding 40 on the surface of the frame 10, the frame 10 is protected from corrosion by salt spray and other factors, thereby improving the corrosion resistance of the middle frame 200.
