Therefore, the linkage mechanism of the rotating shaft device 22 is realized without adopting the meshing of gears, so that the structure of the rotating shaft device 22 is simple, the manufacturing cost is low, the whole volume of the rotating shaft device 22 is reduced, and the miniaturization development of products is facilitated; Next, when the first cam 2616 and the second cam 2656 are rotated with respect to the two abutting cams 2910, respectively, the frictional resistance between the first cam 2616 and the corresponding abutting cam 2910 and the frictional resistance between the second cam 2656 and the corresponding abutting cam 2910, the frictional resistance between the first link member 261 and the second link member 265 and the positioning piece 2233, respectively, and the frictional resistance between the first rotating member 251 and the second rotating member 256 and the base 220 and the positioning member 24, respectively, enable the first rotating member 251 and the second rotating member 256 to be positioned with respect to the base 220, The first link member 261 and the second link member 265 are positioned with respect to the base 220 such that the first rotation member 251 is positioned at any angle between 0 degrees and 90 degrees with respect to the middle support member 230 and the second rotation member 256 is positioned at any angle between 0 degrees and 90 degrees with respect to the middle support member 230; At the same time, the first and second side supports 232 and 234 are positioned at any angle between 0 degrees and 120 degrees, respectively, with respect to the middle support 230, so that the electronic device 100 can achieve a larger-angle hover; in addition, the first elastic member 284 keeps elastic pushing the first sliding member 281 and the second sliding member 283, so that the first spiral surface 2801 and the second spiral surface 2804 respectively push against the first push spiral surface 2617a and the third push spiral surface 2657a, and the third spiral surface 2803 and the fourth spiral surface 2806 respectively rotationally push against the second push spiral surface 2617b and the fourth push spiral surface 2657b, so that the rotating shaft device 22 has a better synchronous folding or unfolding effect.

When the rotation shaft device 22 is unfolded from the fully folded state, the movement process of each component is opposite to that when the rotation shaft device 22 is folded from the unfolded state, and the description is omitted.

Because the overall volume of the rotating shaft device 22 is smaller, the rotating shaft device 22 occupies the internal space of the folding housing 20, which is beneficial to the layout of other components such as a motherboard or a battery, and the miniaturization and the thinning of the electronic device 100. In addition, the hinge device 22 enables the bendable region 31 of the flexible screen 30 to be positioned at any bending angle through the friction resistance between the supporting member 291 of the damping mechanism 29 and the first link member 261 and the second link member 265, the friction resistance between the first link member 261 and the second link member 265 and the positioning piece 2233, and the friction resistance between the first rotating member 251 and the second rotating member 256 and the base 220 and the positioning member 24, respectively, so that the two frames 21 can be freely adjusted in the unfolded state, the folded state and the intermediate state, i.e., the electronic device 100 can be positioned in the unfolded state, the folded state and any intermediate state.

When the electronic device 100 is flattened, a deployment force is applied to at least one of the two frames 21 of the electronic device 100, so that the first connecting piece 252 and the second connecting piece 257 connected to the two frames 21 drive the first rotating piece 251 and the second rotating piece 256 to rotate relative to the base 220 in a direction away from each other, the side of the first side support 232 away from the middle support 230 rotates relative to the first connecting piece 252, and the side of the first side support 232 close to the middle support 230 is rotationally and slidingly connected with the first adjusting slot 2320 through the cooperation of the first adjusting shaft 2516, the side of the second side support 234 away from the middle support 230 rotates relative to the second connecting piece 257, and the side of the second side support 234 close to the middle support 230 is rotationally and slidingly connected with the second adjusting slot 2340 through the cooperation of the second adjusting shaft 2566, so as to realize synchronous deployment of the rotating shaft device 22, and the bendable region 31 of the flexible screen 30 is deployed along with the rotating shaft device 22 until the flexible screen 30 is completely flattened, thereby realizing flattening of the electronic device 100.

The rotating shaft device 22 of the electronic device 100 of the invention can realize synchronous folding or synchronous unfolding of the first side supporting piece 232 and the second side supporting piece 234 through the linkage assembly 28 arranged between the first link member 261 and the second link member 265, and is convenient to operate; the rotating shaft device 22 has fewer elements, simple structure and low manufacturing cost, reduces the internal space occupied by the rotating shaft device 22 in the folding shell 20, and is beneficial to the layout of other elements such as a main board or a battery. Second, the friction resistance between the first cam 2616 of the first link member 261 and the second cam 2656 of the second link member 265 and the two abutting cams 2910, the friction resistance between the first link member 261 and the second link member 265 and the positioning piece 2233, the friction resistance between the first rotating member 251 and the base 220 and the positioning piece 24, and the friction resistance between the second rotating member 256 and the base 220 and the positioning piece 24, respectively, enable the bendable region 31 of the flexible screen 30 to be positioned at any bending angle, so that the two frames 21 can be freely adjusted in the unfolded state, the folded state and any intermediate state, that is, the electronic device 100 can be positioned in the unfolded state, the folded state and any intermediate state, so that the two frames 21 of the electronic device 100 have a hovering function of 0 degrees to 180 degrees, and the hovering angle range is large.
