Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional flexible display devices are prone to breakage due to their flexible screen design, which makes them vulnerable to external impacts.
Innovation Solution
A flexible display device with a pivot mechanism and gravity sensors that allows the screen to fold inward when detecting a fall, reducing the angle between the screen layers to minimize damage from impact.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If the flexible display screen is made flexible to enable bending and folding, then adaptability and versatility are improved, but reliability deteriorates because the flexible screen becomes vulnerable to external impacts and easily broken
Solution Approach 1:
The gravity sensor detects the fall direction in advance, and the controller pre-activates the motor to rotate the flexible display screen to a protective position before impact occurs. This preliminary action allows the screen to be positioned optimally to absorb or deflect the impact force, preventing damage that would occur if the screen remained in its original position.
Solution Approach 2:
The flexible display screen is made rotatable through a motor-driven mechanism controlled by the controller. This dynamic capability allows the screen to change its orientation and position in response to detected fall conditions, transforming from a static vulnerable surface to an actively protective element that can adapt its position to minimize impact damage.
2Adaptability or versatility
If the flexible display screen is made flexible to enable bending and folding, then adaptability and versatility are improved, but strength deteriorates because the flexible screen becomes easily damaged
Solution Approach 1:
The gravity sensor detects the fall direction in advance, and the controller pre-activates the motor to rotate the flexible display screen to a protective position before impact occurs. This preliminary action allows the screen to be positioned optimally to absorb or deflect the impact force, preventing damage that would occur if the screen remained in its original position.
Solution Approach 2:
The system uses the harmful impact force to trigger a protective response. When the gravity sensor detects a fall, the controller activates the motor to rotate the screen into a position where the flexible display can better withstand or distribute the impact force, converting the potential harm into a beneficial protective action.

AI summary
The present invention discloses a flexible display device and an intelligent protecting method thereof and a computer readable storage medium. The present invention, when detecting that the flexible display device is in an intelligent protective mode, obtains gravity detection data, and determines whether the flexible display device fulfills an intelligent protective condition. When the intelligent protective condition is fulfilled, a first structural member and a second structural member of the flexible display device are controlled to pivot at a predetermined angular velocity relative to a pivot shaft such that an included angle between flexible display screen lamination structures is less than 180 degrees.
