ELECTRONIC APPARATUS HAVING TILTING PREVENTION STRUCTURE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240352997 titled 'ELECTRONIC APPARATUS HAVING TILTING PREVENTION STRUCTURE
The abstract describes an electronic apparatus with a flexible display that can be expanded or contracted based on the sliding movement of two housings. The apparatus includes a rack gear, pinion gear, motor driver, and bracket to facilitate this movement.
- The electronic apparatus consists of a first housing and a second housing that can slide in and out.
- A flexible display is placed on the surface formed by the two housings and can expand or contract as the second housing moves.
- A rack gear is attached to the first housing, while a pinion gear engages with the rack gear to enable movement.
- A motor driver, fastened to the second housing, rotates the pinion gear.
- A bracket surrounds the motor driver and pinion gear, fastened to the second housing.
- A rack gear case encloses the rack gear on three sides.
