ROLLABLE ELECTRONIC DEVICE INCLUDING GEAR ASSEMBLY - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17957547 titled 'ROLLABLE ELECTRONIC DEVICE INCLUDING GEAR ASSEMBLY
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes an electronic device with a sliding mechanism that allows for the unfolding of a display. The device includes a first housing that can slide with respect to a second housing, a display that can be unfolded by sliding the first housing, and a motor structure on the second housing that generates the driving force for the sliding motion. The sliding mechanism includes a gear assembly with multiple gears that enable the sliding and rotation of the first housing.
- The electronic device has a sliding mechanism that allows for the unfolding of a display.
- The device includes a first housing that can slide with respect to a second housing.
- The sliding motion of the first housing unfolds the display.
- A motor structure on the second housing generates the driving force for the sliding motion.
- The sliding mechanism includes a gear assembly with multiple gears.
- The gears enable the sliding and rotation of the first housing.
Potential Applications
- This sliding mechanism can be used in smartphones or tablets to provide a larger display when unfolded.
- It can also be applied in laptops or convertible devices to enhance the screen size or adjust the viewing angle.
Problems Solved
- The sliding mechanism solves the problem of limited screen size in portable electronic devices.
- It allows for a compact design while providing a larger display when needed.
Benefits
- The sliding mechanism provides a convenient way to unfold and fold the display, enhancing the user experience.
- It allows for a more compact and portable device design without compromising on screen size.
- The motor structure and gear assembly ensure smooth and reliable sliding motion.
Original Abstract Submitted
An electronic device may include a first housing configured to slide with respect to the second housing, a second housing receiving at least a portion of the first housing, a display configured to be unfolded based on sliding of the first housing, a motor structure configured to generate a driving force for the sliding of the first housing, the motor structure disposed on the second housing, and a gear assembly including a first gear connected to the motor structure, a rack gear connected to the first housing and configured to slide along with the first housing, a second gear configured to mesh with the rack gear, and a third gear connected to the second gear and configured to rotate based on rotation of the first gear.
