When the hinge 200 is in the flat state, a gap Q is formed between the elastic sheet assembly 220 and the supporting seat 210 connected thereto, at this time, the hinge 200 forms a shape with a larger heat dissipation area, and because the hinge 200 is located on one side of the flexible display panel 100 deviating from the light exit surface, the hinge 200 can effectively and timely dissipate heat of the flexible display panel 100 at this time.
Further, when the hinge 200 is in the flat state, the gap Q between the elastic sheet assembly 220 and the supporting seat 210 connected thereto is the largest, because the hinge 200 is located on the side of the flexible display panel 100 away from the light emitting surface, when the hinge 200 is in the flat state, the flexible display panel 100 is also in the flat state, and the flexible display panel 100 generally displays in the flat state, therefore, when the flexible display panel 100 is in the flat state, the power consumption is high, the generated heat is the largest, and at this time, the hinge 200 can further effectively and timely dissipate heat of the flexible display panel 100.
In some optional embodiments, the elastic sheet assembly 220 is made of an elastic metal material, so that when the elastic sheet assembly 220 is squeezed, the elastic sheet connecting portion 222 can move in the positioning groove 211, thereby effectively preventing the elastic sheet assembly 220 from being arranged to affect the bending of the hinge 200. Moreover, the metal material is favorable for heat transmission, so that the elastic sheet assembly 220 is further favorable for heat dissipation of the flexible display panel 100.
Referring to fig. 1-6, in some alternative embodiments, the support base 210 extends in a second direction Y, wherein the first direction X intersects the second direction Y. Optionally, the first direction X and the second direction Y are perpendicular.
When the elastic sheet assembly 220 is squeezed, the elastic sheet connecting part 222 can move in the positioning groove 211, and because the length of the projection formed by the section of the positioning groove 211 on the plane perpendicular to the second direction Y is greater than or equal to the length of the projection formed by the section of the elastic sheet connecting part 222 on the plane perpendicular to the second direction Y, the elastic sheet connecting part 222 can be integrally compressed into the positioning groove 211, which is beneficial to increasing the bending angle of the hinge 200, and the bending angle of the flexible display device is increased.
Referring to fig. 1-6, in some alternative embodiments, one end of the elastic piece main body 221 is connected to the elastic piece connecting portion 222, and one end of the elastic piece main body 221 away from the elastic piece connecting portion 222 is fixed to one end of the supporting base 210 away from the positioning groove 211, so that when the elastic piece assembly 220 is squeezed, the elastic piece connecting portion 222 can move in the positioning groove 211 along with the bending of the hinge 200, and the elastic piece assembly 220 is prevented from being separated from the hinge 200 to damage the flexible display panel 100. When the hinge 200 is in the flattened state, a gap Q is formed between the elastic sheet assembly 220 and the support base 210 connected thereto.
In some alternative embodiments, when the hinge 200 is in the flat state, a projection formed by a section of the elastic sheet main body 221 in a plane perpendicular to the second direction Y extends in a direction perpendicular to the flexible display panel 100, and at this time, an area of the gap Q between the elastic sheet assembly 220 and the supporting seat 210 connected thereto is the largest, which is beneficial to dissipating heat of the flexible display panel 100.

Fig. 8 is a partial cross-sectional view of the hinge of the present invention in a bent state, with reference to fig. 8, in some alternative embodiments, when the dome body 221 is engaged with the first sidewall 212 adjacent thereto, the included angle between the spring main body 221 and the spring connecting part 222 connected with the spring main body is alpha 2, that is, when the hinge is in the maximum bending state, the elastic sheet main body 221 is attached to the first side wall 212 close to the elastic sheet main body, at this time, the included angle between the elastic sheet main body 221 and the elastic sheet connecting part 222 connected with the elastic sheet main body is alpha 2, which is the same as the included angle between the main body 221 of the striking flake and the connecting portion 222 of the striking flake connected with the main body when the hinge is in the unfolded state, that is, the elastic piece main body 221 and the elastic piece connecting portion 222 of the elastic piece assembly 220 are not pressed, therefore, the hinge 200 is prevented from being deformed or loosened to a certain extent after being in the maximum bending state for a long time, and the service life of the elastic sheet assembly 220 is effectively prolonged.
With reference to fig. 8, in some optional embodiments, the supporting base 210 includes a first sub-portion 214 and a second sub-portion 215 connected to each other, the positioning groove 211 is located in the first sub-portion 214, an elastic modulus of the first sub-portion 214 is smaller than an elastic modulus of the second sub-portion 215, that is, the elastic modulus of the first sub-portion 214 is smaller, when the hinge is in the bending state, and the elastic piece assembly 220 is pressed, the positioning groove 211 has a certain deformation space, so that the elastic piece main body 221 and the elastic piece connecting portion 222 in the elastic piece assembly 220 are not pressed, thereby preventing the elastic piece assembly 220 from deforming or loosening after the hinge 200 is in the maximum bending state for a long time, and effectively increasing the service life of the elastic piece assembly 220. Optionally, the material of the first sub-portion 214 is rubber.

Thus, the end of the spring main body 221 away from the spring connecting portion 222 is fixed to the support base 210 by fixing the spring bottom plate 300 to the first bottom surface 213 corresponding thereto. And the spring plate bottom plate 300 is fixed with the corresponding first bottom surface 213, and the connection area between the spring plate bottom plate 300 and the corresponding first bottom surface 213 is large, which is beneficial to improving the connection stability between the spring plate main body 221 and the support seat 210.
