FOLDABLE DISPLAY
The present disclosure relates to a foldable display apparatus. A foldable display includes: a display layer disposed on the top surface of a flexible substrate; an encapsulation layer covering the display layer; and a back plate disposed under the bottom surface of the flexible substrate, the back plate includes: a reference plane; a first folding plane disposed at one side of the reference plane; a second folding plane disposed at another side of the reference plane; a first bending part disposed between the reference plane and the first folding plane and having a first bending radius; and a second bending part disposed between the reference plane and the second folding plane and having a second bending radius, wherein the first folding plane is thinner than the reference plane.
FLEXIBLE DEVICE
A flexible device includes a flexible functional element, and further includes multiple first movable elements, and multiple second movable elements. Each second movable element rotatably connects to a corresponding first movable element via rotation shafts. A rotation of each second movable element relative to one first movable element deforms the flexible device. A rotation damping value of one of the rotation shafts is different from that of another one of the rotation shafts.
FLEXIBLE DEVICE
A flexible device includes a flexible functional element, and further includes a first movable element, a second movable element, a positioning element, and a limitation element. The first movable element defines a positioning hole. The second movable element defines a positioning slot. The positioning element passes through the positioning hole and movably passes through the positioning slot. The limitation element fixes to the positioning element and abuts against the first movable element. A movement of the second movable element relative to the first movable element deforms the flexible functional element.
FLEXIBLE DEVICE
A flexible device comprises a flexible screen and a supporting assembly for supporting the flexible screen. The supporting assembly comprises a plurality of moving members and connecting members each for movably connecting two adjacent moving members of the plurality of moving members. The adjacent moving members moving relatively to support the flexible screen in an unfolded state or a bent state. The flexible device can be transformed into different forms according to requirements, so as to adapt to application requirements of various shapes of flexible screen.
FOLDABLE DISPLAY APPARATUS
This application discloses a foldable display apparatus, including a flexible display screen and a bearer component, where the bearer component includes a first plane part, a first bending part, a second plane part, a second bending part, and a third plane part that are sequentially connected in a long side direction, a length of the first bending part in the long side direction is greater than a length of the second bending part in the long side direction, the plurality of parts jointly bear the flexible display screen, the third plane part is folded between the first plane part and the second plane part through bending and deformation of the first bending part and the second bending part, and parts, of the flexible display screen, borne by the first plane part and the second plane part are exposed.
ELECTRONIC DEVICE INCLUDING FRONT PLATE SLIDABLE IN BOTH DIRECTIONS
An electronic device according to an embodiment includes: a front plate facing a first direction; a rear plate facing a second direction opposite to the first direction; and a support member including a first camera and a second camera, and disposed between the front plate and the rear plate, and, when the front plate slides in a third direction in a first state in which the first camera is occluded by the front plate and the second camera is occluded by the rear plate, the electronic device is configured into a second state in which the first camera is visible, and when the front plate slides in a fourth direction opposite to the third direction in the first state, the support member is configured to slide along with the front plate and the electronic device is configured into a third state in which the second camera is visible.
HOUSING FEATURES OF AN ELECTRONIC DEVICE
An enclosure and a method for forming an enclosure are disclosed. The enclosure may be formed from metal, such as aluminum, and further include a non-metal portion allowing for transmission and receipt of electromagnetic waves. The non-metal portion may be interlocked to the enclosure and in particular, to a region within the enclosure including a first material having a relatively high strength and stiffness compared to the non-metal portion. Interlocking means may include forming dovetail cuts into the enclosure to receive the non-metal portion, a hole or cavity drilled into the enclosure which includes internal threads, and a rod inserted into the first material to provide a tension to the non-metal portion. Methods of assembling internal components using anodization are also disclosed.
ELECTRONIC DEVICE CONTROLLING SCREEN BASED ON FOLDING EVENT AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THE SAME
An electronic device controlling a screen based on a folding event and a method for controlling the same. According to an embodiment, an electronic device comprises a plurality of cameras, a foldable housing including a first hinge structure and a second hinge structure, a flexible display at least partially exposed through the foldable housing, and at least one processor provided in the foldable housing. The at least one processor is configured to display on the flexible display a first screen including an object obtained by a first camera among the plurality of cameras, detect a folding event for at least one of the first hinge structure and the second hinge structure while displaying the obtained first screen on the flexible display, and display a second screen different from the first screen on the flexible display according to the detected folding event.
MULTI-FOLDABLE ELECTRONIC DEVICE
An electronic device includes a foldable housing that includes a first hinge structure; a second hinge structure; a first housing structure including a first surface, a second surface facing away from the first surface, and a first side member surrounding a first space between the first surface and the second surface; a second housing structure including a third surface, a fourth surface facing away from the third surface, and a second side member surrounding a second space between the third surface and the fourth surface; a third housing structure including a fifth surface, a sixth surface facing away from the fifth surface, and a third side member surrounding a third space between the fifth surface and the sixth surface, wherein the first housing structure and the second housing structure are connected through the first hinge structure and the third housing structure are connected to the second housing structure through the second hinge structure, wherein through the first hinge structure, the second surface face the fourth surface in a folded state and the first surface and the third surface face in the same direction in an unfolded state, and wherein, through the second hinge structure, the third surface faces the fifth surface in the folded state and the third surface and the fifth surface face in the same direction in the unfolded state; and a flexible display extended from the first surface through the third surface to at least a portion of the fifth surface, wherein the second surface includes a recess whose vertical distance to the first surface is at least partially shorter than a vertical distance of a nearby site, and wherein the fourth surface includes a portion corresponding to the recess to make surface contact with the second surface.
