Smart overview of the Invention

A display device comprises a display module and two bodies positioned underneath it, arranged in a linear fashion when unfolded. These bodies are connected by a hinge that defines two rotary axes, allowing the bodies to rotate between an in-folded state, where they face each other, and an out-folded state, where they face away from each other. The design allows for a flexible configuration that enhances user interaction with the display.

Folding Mechanism

The device features a folding set that accommodates a dumbbell-shaped folding region, facilitating smooth transitions between the in-folded and out-folded states. The distances between the rotary axes and the hinge bar vary depending on the device's state, ensuring optimal functionality and compactness during folding.

Hinge Design

The hinge includes multiple rotary axes and is designed to maintain specific distances between components in different states. For instance, the distance between certain rotary axes changes based on whether the device is in an in-folded or unfolded state, which contributes to its overall stability and usability.

Linkage System

A sophisticated linkage system connects gears within the hinge to facilitate movement. This system allows for adjustments in the position of components during folding and unfolding, ensuring that parts do not interfere with each other and maintain their intended functionality throughout usage.

Additional Features

The display device is equipped with various structural elements, including body covers and wing plates that enhance its design and performance. These components allow for sliding movements relative to gears and ensure that they remain properly aligned during transitions from one state to another, ultimately improving user experience and device durability.
