PORTABLE ELECTRONIC DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18519702 titled 'PORTABLE ELECTRONIC DEVICE

The abstract describes a portable electronic device with a flexible display that is fixed to two frames connected by a hinge. An angle limiter controls the angle between the frames, preventing them from opening too wide.

  • The portable electronic device includes a flexible display fixed to two frames connected by a hinge.
  • An angle limiter restricts the angle between the frames to prevent overextension.
  • The angle limiter consists of stopper brackets on each frame that come into contact when the device is fully opened.
  • This design allows for controlled movement of the frames while protecting the flexible display from damage.
  • The device can be easily folded and unfolded without risking damage to the display.

Potential Applications: - Foldable smartphones or tablets - E-readers with flexible displays - Portable electronic devices with adjustable viewing angles

Problems Solved: - Prevents overextension of the frames and potential damage to the flexible display - Ensures durability and longevity of the device - Provides a user-friendly experience with controlled movement

Benefits: - Enhanced protection for the flexible display - Improved user experience with adjustable viewing angles - Increased durability and longevity of the device

Commercial Applications: Title: "Innovative Foldable Electronic Device with Angle Limiter" This technology could be used in the development of foldable smartphones, tablets, e-readers, and other portable electronic devices. The market implications include increased demand for durable and user-friendly devices with flexible displays.

Prior Art: Readers interested in prior art related to this technology could explore patents or research on foldable devices with angle limiters, flexible displays, and hinge mechanisms in portable electronics.

Frequently Updated Research: Researchers may be conducting studies on the durability and usability of foldable devices with angle limiters, as well as advancements in flexible display technology.

Questions about Foldable Electronic Devices with Angle Limiters: 1. How does the angle limiter in this device contribute to its overall durability and user experience? 2. What are the potential challenges in implementing this technology in different types of portable electronic devices?


Original Abstract Submitted

A portable electronic device includes a first frame, a second frame, a flexible display fixed to the first frame and fixed to the second frame, a hinge connected between the first frame and the second frame, the hinge being configured to control an angle between the first frame and the second frame; and an angle limiter for limiting the angle between the first frame and the second frame. The angle limiter includes a first stopper bracket coupled to the first frame, and a second stopper bracket coupled to the second frame. The first stopper bracket is spaced apart from the second stopper bracket in a closed state of the portable electronic device, and comes into contact with the second stopper bracket in an open state of the portable electronic device.
