ELECTRONIC DEVICE INCLUDING MAGNET ARRAY - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17990233 titled 'ELECTRONIC DEVICE INCLUDING MAGNET ARRAY

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an electronic device with a flexible display that is connected to two housings through a hinge structure. The device includes magnetic members on each housing, which have both vertical and horizontal magnet components. The vertical magnet component is longer than the horizontal magnet component.

  • The electronic device has a flexible display that spans across two housings connected by a hinge structure.
  • The device includes magnetic members on each housing.
  • The magnetic members have both vertical and horizontal magnet components.
  • The vertical magnet component is longer than the horizontal magnet component.

Potential Applications:

  • This technology can be used in foldable smartphones or tablets, allowing for a larger display when unfolded.
  • It can also be applied in flexible e-readers or wearable devices, providing a more versatile and compact design.

Problems Solved:

  • The technology solves the problem of limited screen size in portable electronic devices by allowing for a larger display when unfolded.
  • It also addresses the challenge of creating a flexible display that can be seamlessly integrated into a device with a hinge structure.

Benefits:

  • The flexible display and hinge structure provide a more compact and portable device.
  • The magnetic members ensure a secure connection between the two housings and allow for smooth folding and unfolding of the device.
  • The combination of vertical and horizontal magnet components provides stability and durability to the device.


Original Abstract Submitted

An electronic device and method are provided. The electronic device includes a first housing, a second housing, a hinge structure connected to the first housing and the second housing, a flexible display disposed from the first housing across the hinge structure to the second housing, at least one first magnetic member disposed on the first housing, and at least one second magnetic member disposed at a position on the second housing corresponding to a position of the first magnetic member. Each of the first magnetic member and the second magnetic member includes at least one vertical magnet component perpendicular to the flexible display and at least one horizontal magnet component parallel to the flexible display. The at least one vertical magnet component is longer than the at least one horizontal magnet component.
