  • Publication number: 20230367273
    Abstract: An electronic device includes a housing, a display screen and a deformation driving component. The second region of the display screen is connected to the first region of the display screen which is a first plane region. The deformation driving component is connected to an inner side of the second region, and deforms to drive the second region to switch between a flattened state and a bent state. The electronic device further includes a support mechanism which includes a flat plate support body and a motion driving component; in a case that the flat plate support body is in the support state, the flat plate support body is supported on an inner side of the deformation driving component; and in a case that the flat plate support body is in the avoidance state, the flat plate support body avoids the second region that is in the bent state.

  • Publication number: 20230359247
    Abstract: An electronic device is provided, including a housing, a screen, a deformation drive part, and a camera. The screen and the housing form an inner cavity in which the camera and the deformation drive part are disposed. The deformation drive part drives a second area located at an edge of the screen to switch between a flattened state and a curved state through deformation. When the second area is in the flattened state, the second area is a flat second plane area, and the second plane area is located in the same plane as a first plane area of a first area of the screen. A light-transmitting area is disposed in the second area. In the case that the second area is in the flattened state, ambient light passing through the light-transmitting area is projected onto the camera.

  • Publication number: 20230353857
    Abstract: An electronic device includes a housing, a display screen, a deformation driving part and a camera module. The display screen includes a first region and a second region which are connected, a display surface of the first region is a first plane, a portion of the second region is a deformable region, the deformation driving part drives the deformable region to be switched between a flattening state and a bending state. When the deformable region is in the flattening state, a display surface of the deformable region is a second plane located within the same plane with the first plane. When the deformable region is in the bending state, the deformable region is a curved surface, a light transmitting region is arranged in the deformable region. When the deformable region is in the flattening state, ambient light passing through the light transmitting region is projected to the camera module.

  • Publication number: 20220261041
    Abstract: An electronic device and a control method thereof are disclosed. The electronic device includes a screen, where the screen includes a bendable flexible screen portion; and a support assembly, where the support assembly is disposed on a back side of the flexible screen portion and configured to support the flexible screen portion, and the support assembly is switchable between a first state and a second state. In a case that the support assembly is in the first state, the flexible screen portion is curved; and in a case that the support assembly is in the second state, the flexible screen portion is flat.
