Abstract: A foldable mechanism comprises a base assembly, two support assemblies, and two driving assemblies. The base assembly includes a bottom seat and two hinge seats respectively fixed to two sides of the bottom seat. The support assembly includes an outer plate member and an inner plate member located between the two outer plate members, the outer plate member and the inner plate member are pivotally connected to the corresponding hinge seat respectively, and pivotal axes of the outer plate members and the inner plate members are parallel to a central axis L of the bottom seat; the driving assembly is connected to and between the bottom seat and the inner plate member corresponding to the driving assembly; and when the foldable mechanism is in a folded state, the driving assemblies respectively drive the corresponding inner plate members to flip toward the bottom seat. Related mobile terminal is also described.

Abstract: This application provides a rotation mechanism, a supporting apparatus, and a foldable screen terminal, and relates to the field of electronic device technologies, so as to balance a lifting stroke of the lifting member and a thickness of the foldable screen terminal in an unfolded state. The rotation mechanism includes a lifting member, a shaft cover, a first swing arm, a second swing arm, a forcing structure, and a first supporting member. The lifting member includes a lamination surface. The shaft cover is located on a side that is of the lifting member and that is away from the lamination surface. The first swing arm and the second swing arm are respectively located on two opposite sides of the lifting member, and the first swing arm and the second swing arm can swing between an unfolded position and a folded position relative to the shaft cover.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to the technical field of electronic devices and provides a rotating mechanism, a support apparatus, and an electronic device. The rotating mechanism includes a base, a first door panel, a first connector, and a first main swing arm. The first door panel is hinged to the base, the first connector is hinged to the first door panel, and the first connector is configured to connect a first housing. One end of the first main swing arm is hinged to the base, and the other end of the first swing arm is hinged to the first connector. When the rotating mechanism rotates between an unfolded state and a folded state, a rotation angle of the first main swing arm relative to the base is smaller than a rotation angle of the first door panel relative to the base.
