Mobile computing device having a flexible hinge structure

摘要

Techniques involving a mobile computing device having a flexible hinge structure are described. In one or more implementations, a mobile computing device includes a plurality of housings, a display device that is flexible, and a flexible hinge structure. The flexible hinge structure secures the plurality of housings to each other, permits the plurality of housings to rotate about an axis in relation to each other, and supports a continuous viewing area of the display device that extends across the plurality of housings and the flexible hinge structure.

主权项

1. A mobile computing device comprising:
a plurality of housings; a display device that is flexible; and a flexible hinge structure that:
secures the plurality of housings to each other;permits the plurality of housings to rotate about an axis in relation to each other, the flexible hinge structure supporting a plurality of configurations of the plurality of housings in relation to each other, one said configuration positioning the plurality of housings along a single plane and at least a second said configuration positioning the plurality of housings stacked in relation to each other configured to expose at least a portion of the display device so as to be viewable;contacts the display device that is flexible; andsupports a continuous viewing area of the display device that extends across the plurality of housings and the flexible hinge structure.
