Referring to fig. 1 and fig. 2 together, an embodiment of the present application provides a mobile terminal 100. The mobile terminal 100 comprises a support assembly 1, a display screen 2 and a movable seat 3. The display screen 2 is fixed on the support assembly 1. The support assembly 1 comprises a first shell 11, a second shell 12 and a bending piece 13. The bending piece 13 is connected between the first housing 11 and the second housing 12. The bending members 13 can be unfolded or bent to flatten or fold the support assembly 1. The bending member 13 may have various implementations, such as an elastic plate structure, a hinge structure, and a hinge connection structure.

In the present application, the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 form an angle of 120 ° to 180 ° when the support assembly 1 is in a flattened state. As shown in fig. 2, the present application is illustrated by taking an example in which an angle of 180 ° is formed between the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 when the support assembly 1 is unfolded. The first housing 11 and the second housing 12 form an angle of 0 ° to 15 ° when the support assembly 1 is in a folded state. As shown in fig. 1, the present application is illustrated by taking an example in which an angle of 0 ° is formed between the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 when the support assembly 1 is folded.

Referring to fig. 2 and 3, the first housing 11 includes a first inner surface 111, a first outer surface 112, and a first side surface 113. The first outer surface 112 carries the display screen 2. The first inner surface 111 is disposed opposite the first outer surface 112. The first side 113 is connected between the first inner surface 111 and the first outer surface 112. The first housing 11 is provided with a recessed area 114. The recessed area 114 is recessed from the first inner surface 111 in a direction toward the first outer surface 112, and the recessed area 114 extends to the first side 113.

Referring to fig. 2 and 3, the second housing 12 includes a second inner surface 121, a second outer surface 122, and a second side 123. The second outer surface 122 carries the display screen 2. The second inner surface 121 is disposed opposite the second outer surface 122. The second side 123 is connected between the second inner surface 121 and the second outer surface 122. The second side 123 is oriented in a direction that is consistent with the direction of the first side 113. The second housing 12 is provided with a relief area 124. The relief area 124 extends through the second inner surface 121 to the second outer surface 122 and to the second side 123.

Referring to fig. 1 to 5, when the support assembly 1 is folded, the second inner surface 121 is disposed opposite to the first inner surface 111, and the avoidance area 124 and the recess area 114 are combined into the movable space 10. At this time, the first outer surface 112 is disposed opposite to the second outer surface 122. The movable seat 3 is internally provided with a first camera 41, and the movable seat 3 is rotatably connected with the first shell 11 so as to carry the first camera 41 into or out of the movable space 10. When the movable seat 3 is rotated into the movable space 10, the orientation of the image capturing surface of the first camera 41 is identical to the orientation of the first side 113. At this time, since the movable space 10 extends to the first side 113 and the second side 123, the image capturing surface of the first camera 41 is exposed. External light enters the first camera 41 through the image acquisition surface of the first camera 41, so that the first camera 41 can acquire images, and shooting is completed.

In this embodiment, when the support assembly 1 is unfolded, the entire display screen 2 can be displayed, so that the mobile terminal 100 can realize a large-screen display; when the support assembly 1 is folded, the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 are stacked, so that the length of the support assembly 1 is only about one half of that of the support assembly when the support assembly is unfolded, and the mobile terminal 100 is convenient to carry, so that the mobile terminal 100 has a large display area and is convenient to carry.

Since the direction of the image capturing surface of the first camera 41 is identical to the direction of the first side 113 when the movable base 3 is turned into the movable space 10, and the image capturing surface of the first camera 41 is exposed, the first camera 41 can capture images when the supporting component 1 is folded or unfolded, so that the capturing modes of the mobile terminal 100 are diversified.

Because the recess area 114 and the avoidance area 124 are combined into the movable space 10 when the support assembly 1 is folded, and the avoidance area 124 penetrates through the second inner surface 121 to the second outer surface 122, the dimension of the avoidance area 124 in the thickness space of the mobile terminal 100 is larger, the dimension of the whole movable space 10 in the thickness space of the mobile terminal 100 is larger, and the thickness space of the mobile terminal 100 can be fully utilized by the movable seat 3, so that the thickness of the whole mobile terminal 100 is thinner, and the light and thin mobile terminal 100 is facilitated. On the other hand, since the movable base 3 can fully utilize the thickness space of the mobile terminal 100, the movable base 3 can have a larger thickness to accommodate more thick devices, such as cameras, so that more functional devices can be arranged in the movable base 3 to make the mobile terminal 100 more functional. Furthermore, since the avoidance area 124 extends through the second inner surface 121 to the second outer surface 122, that is, the avoidance area 124 extends through the second housing 12, the movable seat 3 is rotatably connected with the first housing 11, so that the movable seat 3 can rotate by using a space outside the mobile terminal 100, which is close to the avoidance area 124, without reserving more rotation space in the mobile terminal 100, so that the movable seat 3 can be provided with a larger volume, thereby accommodating more functional devices, and meeting the multifunctional interaction requirement of a user.

In the present application, the orientation of one surface is identical to the orientation of the other surface, and it means that an angle of 135 ° to 225 ° is formed between the two surfaces, and the embodiment of the present application is described by taking an example in which an angle of 180 ° is formed between the two surfaces, that is, a case in which the two surfaces are parallel.

It should be understood that "the image capturing surface of the first camera 41 is exposed" means that the image capturing surface of the first camera 41 is not blocked by a component (for example, the display 2 or the like) of the mobile terminal 100, which may have a light blocking effect, so that shooting can be performed smoothly. Of course, the image capturing surface of the first camera 41 still allows a light-transmitting lens to be covered, so as to realize a protection function.

In the present application, referring to fig. 2, the display screen 2 includes a first display area 21, a second display area 22 and a third display area 23. The first display area 21 is disposed to overlap the first outer surface 112 of the first housing 11. The second display area 22 is arranged overlapping said second outer surface 122 of said second housing 12. The third display area 23 is connected between the first display area 21 and the second display area 22. The third display area 23 overlaps the bending element 13. When the support assembly 1 is flattened or folded, a user can flexibly select any one or more of the first display area 21, the second display area 22 and the third display area 23 to display so as to meet the display requirement.

When the support assembly 1 is folded, a user may select the portion laid on the first outer surface 112 by the display screen 2 to display, or the portion laid on the second outer surface 122 by the display screen 2 to display, so that the interaction mode of the mobile terminal 100 is more diversified, and the user experience is better.

When the image capturing surface of the first camera 41 and the first side 113 face the same direction, the second display area 22 is used for displaying the image, and the first housing 11 carries the first camera 41 to rotate relative to the second housing 12, so that the image capturing surface of the first camera 41 rotates to a required angle and captures images, the flexibility of capturing images of the mobile terminal 100 can be improved, and the use experience of a user is improved. In addition, in the process of rotating the first housing 11 relative to the second housing 12, since the second housing 12 may remain stationary, the first housing 11 and the first camera 41 mounted on the first housing 11 may not shake, and when the first camera 41 performs a shooting operation such as video recording or panoramic image shooting, which requires continuous change of the acquisition direction, the lens of the first camera 41 is stable and shake is small, and the mobile terminal 100 may obtain a higher quality image, thereby improving the user experience of the user.

It will be appreciated that in the present application, when the support assembly 1 is deployed, the recessed area 114 is separated from the escape area 124, and the active space 10 is not formed. Since the movable seat 3 is rotatably connected with the first housing 11, when the support assembly 1 is unfolded, the movable seat 3 is separated from the second housing 12, and the second housing 12 does not form a shielding for the movable seat 3, so that functional devices in the movable seat 3 can interact with a user. When the support assembly 1 is folded, the recess 114 and the avoiding area 124 are combined to form the movable space 10, and embodiments of the present application related to the movement of the movable seat 3 into or out of the movable space 10 are all default to the support assembly 1 being in the folded state, and the present application is mainly described by way of example.

In the present application, the movable base 3 may be rotated by a user's force or by a driving force of a driving assembly of the mobile terminal 100. That is, the user may manually rotate the movable seat 3, or may automatically rotate the movable seat 3 through the driving assembly. The drive assembly may include a motor, a gear set, and the like.

In one embodiment, referring to fig. 5 to 7, the rotation center line 30 of the movable seat 3 is located in a direction parallel to the first outer surface 112. The movable seat 3 comprises a rotating shaft end 3a and a movable end 3b. The rotating shaft end 3a and the movable end 3b are respectively opposite ends of the movable seat 3. The rotating shaft end 3a is rotatably connected with the first housing 11. The movable end 3b rotates around the rotating shaft end 3 a.

In the present application, the rotation angle of the movable seat 3 may be various, for example: the movable seat 3 can rotate about 180 degrees relative to the first housing 11. At this time, the image capturing surface of the first camera 41 is rotated 180 °.

Alternatively, referring to fig. 5 and fig. 7, the movable seat 3 may be rotated about 90 ° relative to the first housing 11. The present application will be described by taking this as an example. At this time, the shaft end 3a is accommodated in the recess 114. When the movable seat 3 is rotated into the movable space 10, the movable end 3b approaches the second housing 12 to be accommodated in the avoidance area 124. When the movable seat 3 rotates out of the movable space 10, the movable end 3b is far away from the second housing 12 to separate from the avoidance area 124. The image capturing surface of the first camera 41 can be rotated from the same orientation as the first side surface 113 to the same orientation as the first outer surface 112.

In one embodiment, referring to fig. 5 and fig. 7, the movable seat 3 further includes a first outer wall surface 32. When the movable seat 3 is rotated into the movable space 10, the first outer wall surface 32 is located between the first outer surface 112 and the second outer surface 122 and is oriented in line with the first side surface 113; when the movable seat 3 is rotated out of the movable space 10, the first outer wall surface 32 is oriented in the same direction as the first outer surface 112. The first outer wall surface 32 is provided with a through hole 320. The image capturing surface of the first camera 41 faces the through hole 320. The projection of the image capturing surface of the first camera 41 on the first outer wall surface 32 falls within the range of the through hole 320. Light enters the image acquisition surface of the first camera 41 through the through hole 320, and the first camera 41 acquires an image to complete shooting.

In one embodiment, referring to fig. 8 and fig. 9 together, the mobile terminal 100 further includes a secondary display 5. The secondary display 5 is disposed on the first outer wall surface 32. The secondary display 5 includes a light-transmitting region 51, and the light-transmitting region 51 is disposed opposite to the through hole 320.

In this embodiment, since the secondary display 5 is disposed on the first outer wall surface 32, when the movable seat 3 rotates out of the movable space 10, the orientation of the first outer wall surface 32 is identical to the orientation of the first outer surface 112, so that the secondary display 5 can be spliced with (the first display area 21 of) the display 2, thereby increasing the display area, making the display area of the mobile terminal 100 larger, and the screen occupation ratio higher, and improving the viewing experience of the user. When the movable seat 3 is turned into the movable space 10, the secondary display 5 can be displayed on the side of the mobile terminal 100, so that the display modes of the mobile terminal 100 are more diversified.

When the movable seat 3 rotates out of the movable space 10, the secondary display screen 5 is parallel to the first display area 21, so as to improve the display effect after the secondary display screen 5 and the first display area 21 are spliced.

In the present application, the light-transmitting area 51 of the secondary display 5 may be implemented in various ways, for example:

First embodiment: referring to fig. 9 and fig. 10, the light-transmitting area 51 of the secondary display 5 is hollowed out. In other words, the secondary display 5 is provided with a through hole penetrating the secondary display 5, and the through hole forms the light-transmitting area 51, through which light can enter the first camera 41. The secondary display 5 does not display an image in the light-transmitting area 51, and the secondary display 5 displays an image in a peripheral area of the light-transmitting area 51.

Second embodiment: referring to fig. 9 and 11, the light-transmitting area 51 of the secondary display 5 is provided with a plurality of light-transmitting holes 511 spaced apart from each other. The light holes 511 penetrate the secondary display 5. Light can enter the first camera 41 through the light hole 511. The sub-display 5 does not display an image in the light hole 511, and the sub-display 5 displays an image in a peripheral area of the light hole 511.

Since the light-transmitting area 51 is provided with a plurality of the light-transmitting holes 511, the first camera 41 can collect images through the light-transmitting area 51, and the portion of the light-transmitting area 51 where the light-transmitting holes 511 are not provided can still perform image display, so that the display area of the secondary display 5 is increased, and the screen ratio of the mobile terminal 100 is higher. The plurality of light holes 511 are arranged in an array, so that the quality of the image collected by the first camera 41 is higher.

Third embodiment: referring to fig. 9 and 12, the secondary display 5 includes a cover plate 52 and a display module 53 that are stacked. The cover plate 52 is a transparent cover plate, and the cover plate 52 allows light to pass through. The display module 53 is disposed in the light-transmitting area 51 and partially hollowed out. That is, the display module 53 is provided with a through hole 530 penetrating through the display module 53, the through hole 530 is located in the light-transmitting area 51, and light can enter the first camera 41 through the through hole 530. The display module 53 does not display an image in the light-transmitting area 51, and the display module 53 displays an image in a peripheral area of the light-transmitting area 51.

In this embodiment, the light-transmitting area 51 allows all light to be transmitted, so that the quality of the image collected by the first camera 41 is higher. The cover plate 52 not only can protect the display module 53, but also can prevent external dust and moisture from entering the movable seat 3 through the through hole 320.

Fourth embodiment: referring to fig. 9 and 13, the secondary display 5 includes a cover plate 52 and a display module 53 that are stacked. The cover plate 52 is a transparent cover plate, and the cover plate 52 allows light to pass through. The display module 53 is provided with a plurality of hollow holes 531, and the plurality of hollow holes 531 are arranged in the light-transmitting region 51 at intervals. The hollow hole 531 penetrates the display module 53. Light can enter the first camera 41 through the hollow hole 531. The display module 53 does not display images in the hollow hole 531, and the display module 53 displays images in the peripheral area of the hollow hole 531.

Since the light-transmitting area 51 is provided with a plurality of hollowed holes 531, the first camera 41 can collect images through the light-transmitting area 51, and the part of the light-transmitting area 51 where the hollowed holes 531 are not provided can still display images, so that the display area of the secondary display 5 is increased, and the screen occupation ratio of the mobile terminal 100 is higher. The cover plate 52 not only can protect the display module 53, but also can prevent external dust and water vapor from entering the movable seat 3 through the hollow hole 531 by the cover plate 52. The plurality of hollowed holes 531 are arranged in an array, so that the quality of the image collected by the first camera 41 is higher.

Fifth embodiment: referring to fig. 9 and 14, the secondary display 5 includes a cover plate 54, a display layer 55 and a light shielding layer 56. The cover 54 is a transparent cover, and the cover 54 allows light to pass through. The display layer 55 is a transparent display layer. The display layer 55 not only enables display but also allows light to pass through. The light shielding layer 56 is disposed in the light-transmitting region 51 and partially hollowed out. The light shielding layer 56 is used for shielding light and shielding devices inside the movable seat 3. The light shielding layer 56 is provided with a through hole 560 penetrating through the light shielding layer 56, the through hole 560 is located in the light transmitting area 51, and light can enter the first camera 41 through the through hole 560.

Since the light-transmitting area 51 is provided with the through hole 560, the first camera 41 can collect images through the light-transmitting area 51, and the light-transmitting area 51 can still display images, so that the display area of the secondary display 5 can be prevented from being reduced, and the screen occupation ratio of the mobile terminal 100 is higher.

Sixth embodiment: referring to fig. 9 and 15, the secondary display 5 includes a cover plate 54, a display layer 55 and a light shielding layer 56. The cover 54 is a transparent cover, and the cover 54 allows light to pass through. The display layer 55 is a transparent display layer.

The plurality of penetrating holes 561 are arranged in the light-transmitting region 51 at intervals from each other. The penetrating hole 561 penetrates the light shielding layer 56. Light can enter the first camera 41 through the penetrating hole 561.

Since the light-transmitting area 51 is provided with the plurality of through holes 561, the first camera 41 can collect images through the light-transmitting area 51, and the light-transmitting area 51 can still display images, so that the display area of the secondary display 5 can be prevented from being reduced, and the screen ratio of the mobile terminal 100 is higher. The region of the light shielding layer 56 where the penetrating holes 561 are not provided may be used for light shielding to improve the uniformity of the appearance of the mobile terminal 100. Wherein, a plurality of the penetrating holes 561 are arranged in an array, so that the quality of the image collected by the first camera 41 is higher.

In one embodiment, referring to fig. 8 and fig. 9, the movable seat 3 includes a second outer wall 31. The second outer wall 31 is located at the movable end 3b of the movable seat 3. When the movable seat 3 is turned into the movable space 10, the second outer wall surface 31 is oriented to be consistent with the second outer surface 122; when the movable seat 3 is rotated out of the movable space 10, the second outer wall surface 31 is located between the first outer surface 112 and the second outer surface 122 and is oriented in line with the first side surface 113. The mobile terminal 100 further comprises a secondary display 6. The secondary display 6 is provided on the second outer wall 31.

In this embodiment, since the auxiliary display 6 is disposed on the second outer wall 31, when the movable seat 3 is turned into the movable space 10, the direction of the second outer wall 31 is identical to the direction of the second outer surface 122, so that the auxiliary display 6 can be spliced with (the second display area 22 of) the display 2, thereby increasing the display area, making the display area of the mobile terminal 100 larger, and the screen occupation ratio higher, and improving the viewing experience of the user.

Wherein the display screen 2 comprises a second display area 22. The second display area 22 is laminated to the second outer surface 122. When the movable seat 3 is rotated into the movable space 10, the auxiliary display screen 6 is flush with the second display area 22. In other words, the secondary display 6 is disposed substantially coplanar with the second display area 22.
