HINGE ASSEMBLY AND FOLDABLE ELECTRONIC DEVICE INCLUDING THE SAME
A foldable electronic device includes: a display, a first housing, a second housing, and a hinge assembly, wherein the hinge assembly includes: a hinge cover connected to the first housing and the second housing, a first hinge connected to the hinge cover to support the first area, and a second hinge connected to the hinge cover to support the second area, wherein each of the first hinge and the second hinge includes: a shaft with a folding axis, a first cam configured to perform a linear motion along the folding axis, a second cam configured to contact the first cam, and a third cam configured to contact the first cam, wherein the first cam is configured to contact only one of the second cam and the third cam.
Variable friction hinged device
The description relates to hinged devices, such as hinged computing devices. One example can include first and second portions that rotate around a hinge shaft that is fixedly secured to the first portion and rotationally secured to the second portion. The second portion defining a first contact surface spaced apart from a second contact surface. Multiple friction clips friction fit around the hinge shaft and rotating with the hinge shaft between the first contact surface and the second contact surface.
Screen-On Control Method and Electronic Device
An electronic device includes a first screen and a second screen. A high-power sensor of the electronic device is in a disabled state, and a low-power sensor of the electronic device is in an enabled state. The electronic device includes a foldable device. Based on this, after the electronic device receives a screen-on trigger signal from the low-power sensor or a processor of the electronic device, the electronic device determines a to-be-lit-up first target screen based on the screen-on trigger signal, and then controls the first target screen to be lit up.
Electronic device including waterproof structure
An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a hinge structure, a first housing structure, a second housing structure that is foldable with the first housing structure, a foldable housing, a flexible display, a first mid-plate disposed on one side of the first housing structure, a second mid-plate disposed on one side of the second housing structure, a flexible printed circuit board (FPCB) extending between the first mid-plate and the second mid-plate, a first sealing member that seals a first opening formed in the first mid-plate, and a second sealing member that seals a second opening formed in the second mid-plate.
Foldable display module and electronic device including the same
An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a first housing, a second housing connected to the first housing so as to be foldable, with a folding axis between the first housing and the second housing, a display module including a first area, a second area, and a folding area, and a plate disposed on a rear surface of the display module, the plate including a first plate coupled to the first area and a second plate coupled to the second area. The first plate includes a first slit area including a plurality of first extensions extending toward the second plate and a plurality of first slits formed between the plurality of first extensions. The second plate includes a second slit area including a plurality of second extensions extending toward the first plate and a plurality of second slits formed between the plurality of second extensions.
ELECTRONIC DEVICE COMPRISING ANTENNA
An electronic device comprising an antenna is provided. The electronic device includes a lateral member forming at least one region of the lateral surface of the electronic device, the lateral member including a first conductive portion, a second conductive portion, and a first non-conductive portion, a printed circuit board connected to one end of the second conductive portion, which is adjacent to the first conductive portion, and including a first region and a ground, the first region including a conductive layer, and a wireless communication circuit disposed on the printed circuit board. The conductive layer of the first region may be electrically connected to the ground, the first conductive portion may receive power from the wireless communication circuit at a first point and be grounded via the printed circuit board at a second point, and the second conductive portion may receive power from the wireless communication circuit.
PORTABLE ELECTRONIC DEVICE
A portable electronic device including a first body, a second body and a supporting mechanism is provided. The first body has a bottom surface and an opening located at the bottom surface. The second body is pivoted to the first body and has a rear surface and a magnetic part located at the rear surface. The supporting mechanism is disposed in the first body corresponding to the opening. The rear surface of the second body is rotated toward the bottom surface of the first body to allow the supporting mechanism to be magnetically attracted to the magnetic part. Afterwards, the rear surface of the second body is rotated away from the bottom surface of the first body, and the supporting mechanism is driven by the second body to move out of the first body via the opening. When the supporting mechanism is locked, a support shaft supports the second body.
COMPUTING DEVICE HINGE ASSEMBLY
Examples are disclosed relating to computing device hinge assemblies. In one example, a hinge assembly comprises a hinge frame affixed to one substrate and a hinge arm member affixed to another substrate. The hinge arm member comprises first and second arcuate arm guide slots. An arm support member, moveably coupling the hinge arm member to the hinge frame, comprises a first side comprising a first arcuate support guide slot receiving a first frame guide of the hinge frame, and a second side comprising a second arcuate support guide slot receiving a second frame guide. First and second arcuate inner support guides are received within the first and second arcuate arm guide slots of the hinge arm member. An elongated bridge member connects the first side of the arm support member to the second side, with the bridge member comprising a unitary structure fabricated from bulk metallic glass.
Electronic device
An electronic device is disclosed. The electronic device includes a foldable display including a first display portion and a second display portion, a shaft disposed between the first display portion and the second display portion, and at least one camera disposed in a sub-area of the first display portion. The first display portion and the second display portion are configured to rotate about the shaft with respect to each other to fold or unfold the foldable display. The sub-area of the first display portion has a thickness greater a thickness of the electronic device when the foldable display is folded.
Hinge structure for terminal folded in two opposing directions
A hinge structure for a mobile communication terminal that is foldable in two opposite directions is provided. The hinge structure for a mobile communication terminal having a flexible display panel installed therein is foldable inward and outward in a fully unfolded state such that the flexible display panel is disposed inside and outside and a screen on which an image such as a moving image is displayed is invisibly disposed inside or visibly disposed outside in a state in which the mobile communication terminal is folded.
