Abstract: This application discloses a folding mechanism and an electronic device. The folding mechanism includes a main shaft assembly, a first connecting arm, a first pin shaft, a first gear, a first fitting part, a second fitting part, a third fitting part, and a first elastic part. In a process of unfolding or folding the electronic device, the first elastic part may deform, and the first elastic part may squeeze the first fitting part. The first fitting part may apply action force to the first gear. In this way, friction force between the first gear and the first fitting part may be increased to a large extent. A speed at which the first gear rotates relative to the main shaft assembly becomes lower, a speed at which the first connecting arm rotates relative to the main shaft assembly becomes lower, and a speed at which the first housing rotates relative to the main shaft assembly becomes lower. Therefore, the folding mechanism can reduce a rotation speed of the first housing, to protect a flexible display of the electronic device and improve reliability thereof.

Abstract: A folding apparatus and an electronic device are disclosed. The electronic device includes a folding apparatus and a flexible display. The folding apparatus is configured to bear the flexible display. An elastic component of the folding apparatus may transfer an elastic force to the flexible display by using a housing of the folding apparatus. A force that is away from a main shaft and that is applied to the flexible display when the electronic device is in a flattened state is greater than a force that is away from the main shaft and that is applied to the flexible display when the electronic device is in a closed state. Therefore, when the electronic device is unfolded from the folded state to the flattened state, layered misalignment of the flexible display can be reduced, and crease recovery of the flexible display can be accelerated, thereby improving a flattening effect of the flexible display.

The rotation mechanism (20) includes a middle housing (1), a first support (2) and a second support (3), one end of the first support (2) is rotatably connected to the middle housing (1), and the other end is fixedly connected to the first housing (10). A support surface (21) of the first support (2) is spliced with a support surface (102) of the first housing (10) to form a first support surface (401). One end of the second support (3) is rotatably connected to the middle housing (1), and the other end is fixedly connected to the second housing (30). A support surface (31) of the second support (3) is spliced with a support surface (302) of the second housing (30) to form a second support surface (402). When the first housing (10) and the second housing (30) are folded relative to each other to a closed state, the first support (2) and the second support (3) are far away from each other, and the first support surface (401) and the second support surface (402) gradually approach each other in a direction away from the middle housing (1). A main moving mechanism of the rotation mechanism (20) of the folding apparatus (100) has a small quantity of parts, so that control precision is high.
