Huawei’s new three-fold patent released: dual hinge linkage can fully unfold the screen at one time

the world’s first tri-foldable mobile phone Huawei Mate XT has officially gone on sale today. Even with a starting price of 19,999 yuan, it was still sold out in seconds, demonstrating unprecedented popularity.

It is worth noting that the three screens of Huawei Mate XT are folded manually separately, and Huawei has also developed a linkage technology that can fully unfold the screen at one time, turning the phone into a tablet in seconds.

According to public information, the patent for “foldable electronic device” applied by Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. was announced today.

The abstract shows that the foldable electronic device includes first, second and third middle frames, the first and second middle frames are rotationally matched through a first folding device, and the second and third middle frames are rotationally matched through a third folding device.

It also includes a driving mechanism that cooperates with the second and third middle frames and the first folding device respectively. When the first and second middle frames are rotated to unfold the first folding device, the second and third middle frames are relatively rotated to unfold through the driving mechanism, and the third and first middle frames are pulled respectively, so that the first middle frame can be unfolded relative to the second, and the third middle frame can be unfolded relative to the second middle frame at the same time to be flattened, thereby realizing a one-time flattening of the entire machine.

The unfolding process is simple, coherent and convenient, which significantly improves the smoothness of the unfolding process, enables quick switching from folded state to flattened state, and improves the user experience.

However, the specific details are not yet certain. If you cannot choose whether to link them independently, then the three-fold will lose a folding form, which is also one less way to play.

If you can choose freely according to your needs, it will be very convenient for users who like to fully unfold the large screen.
