Patent ID: 11455017

Abstract:
A hinge for a mobile terminal having an inwardly bendable flexible screen comprises: a three-member mechanism consisting of a left supporting plate, a middle supporting plate and a right supporting plate which are rotatably and sequentially connected; a left supporting frame; a right supporting frame; and a middle U-shaped outer cover. Both ends of the three-member mechanism are free ends, such that the left supporting plate, the middle supporting plate and the right supporting plate are flexible screen supporting members capable of moving up and down. After moving up, the left supporting plate, the middle supporting plate and the right supporting plate form a flexible screen supporting face, and after moving down, the components are in a bent state, thereby providing a space for bending of the flexible screen. After moving down, the middle supporting plate reaches a bottom portion of the middle U-shaped outer cover. The present invention can provide a larger space for bending of the flexible screen such that the middle mechanism of the hinge is not exposed after folded, and it can be used in mobile terminals such as mobile phones, e-books, and computers, enabling the mobile terminal to achieve large-screen display in a small volume.
