It is understood that the housing 10 is used to protect the flexible display panel 20, and the opening 11 facilitates the flexible display panel 20 to enter and exit the housing 10.
As an example, the shape of the housing 10 may be a rectangular parallelepiped, a cylinder, or the like, and the shape of the opening 11 may be a rectangle, or the like. The specific shapes of the housing 10 and the opening 11 may be set as required, but the present invention is not limited thereto.
For example, when the housing 10 and the opening 11 are both rectangular in shape, the extending direction of the reel 12 provided in the housing 10 and rotatably connected to the housing 10 is parallel to the long side of the rectangular parallelepiped, and the long side of the opening 11 is also parallel to the long side of the rectangular parallelepiped; when the housing 10 is shaped as a cylinder, the extension direction (indicated by k in fig. 2 a) of the reel 12 disposed in the housing 10 and rotatably connected to the housing 10 is parallel to the axis of the cylinder, and the long side of the opening 11 is also parallel to the axis of the cylinder. At this time, the housing 10 can protect the flexible display panel 20 and is small in size.
It can also be understood that the flexible display panel 20 is wound on the reel 12 in an initial state, and as the flexible display panel 20 is unwound from the reel 12, the flexible display panel 20 rotates the reel 12 in the direction a; in the case where the roll 12 rotates in the b direction, the roll 12 brings the flexible display panel 20 back to the original state.
Here, the initial state of the flexible display panel 20 means that the flexible display panel 20 is completely wound on the roll 12. The flexible display panel 20 is normally in an initial state when a product is sold.
The a direction and the b direction are opposite. For example, as shown in fig. 2b, in the case that the direction a is clockwise, the direction b is counterclockwise; when the direction a is counterclockwise, the direction b is clockwise.
As shown in fig. 2c, the display device 1 further includes: and the detection device 30 is connected with the reel 12 and used for detecting a rotation parameter, and the rotation parameter is used for representing the rotation angle of the reel 12.
It should be noted that the rotation angle refers to: the flexible display panel 20 is rotated by an angle of the reel 12 in the current state, compared to the initial state of the flexible display panel 20. That is, the angle by which the roll 12 is rotated when the flexible display panel 20 is changed from the initial state to the current state.
As shown in fig. 2c, the display device 1 further includes: and the processing device 40, wherein the processing device 40 is connected with the detection device 30 and is used for converting the rotation parameter into the effective length of the flexible display panel 20.
The effective length is the length of the portion of the flexible display panel 20 outside the housing 10 in a direction perpendicular to the extension direction of the roll 12. The detection device 30 and the processing device 40 are both disposed in the housing 10.
An embodiment of the present invention provides a display device 1, including a housing 10 having an opening 11; a reel 12 disposed in the housing 10 and rotatably connected to the housing 10; a flexible display panel 20, the flexible display panel 20 being wound on the reel 12 and unwound from the reel 12 through the opening 11; a detection device 30, wherein the detection device 30 is connected with the reel 12; and the processing device 40, wherein the processing device 40 is connected with the detection device 30. The detection device 30 detects the rotation parameter representing the rotation angle of the reel 12, and the processing device 40 converts the rotation parameter into the effective length of the flexible display panel 20, so that the curling position of the display device 1 can be simply and accurately positioned, and the effective length of the flexible display panel 20 in the display device 1 can be acquired in real time.
Optionally, as shown in fig. 2c, the display device 1 further includes:
the processing device 40 is further configured to calculate, according to the effective length of the flexible display panel 20, a current pixel value corresponding to a portion of the flexible display panel 20 outside the housing.
And the display control circuit 50 is connected with the processing device 40 and the flexible display panel 20, and is configured to drive the portion of the flexible display panel 20 outside the housing to display according to the current pixel value calculated by the processing device 40, and make the portion of the flexible display panel 20 inside the housing be a black screen.
In this case, on one hand, the display image can be adaptively displayed according to the portion of the flexible display panel 20 outside the housing 10, so as to improve the display effect; on the other hand, the power consumption of the flexible display panel 20 can be reduced, and the power can be saved, so that the power using time can be prolonged.
It should be noted that the display control circuit 50 includes gate lines and data lines, and the gate lines and the data lines are arranged to intersect vertically. Illustratively, the direction of the gate lines is perpendicular to the extending direction of the reel 12, and the direction of the data lines is parallel to the extending direction of the reel 12; alternatively, the gate lines are oriented parallel to the extending direction of the reels 12, and the data lines are oriented perpendicular to the extending direction of the reels 12.
When the gate lines are perpendicular to the extending direction of the winding shaft 12 and the data lines are parallel to the extending direction of the winding shaft 12, a part of the data lines are wound into the housing 10 along with the winding of the flexible display panel 20, and at this time, when the display control circuit 50 knows which data lines are wound, the data signals of the data lines are set as preset signals, for example, the preset signals are 0. Then, the display control circuit 50 outputs the preset signal to the data line of the flexible display panel 20 in the housing 10, so that the portion in the housing 10 is a black screen.
When the direction of the gate lines is parallel to the extending direction of the winding shaft 12 and the direction of the data lines is perpendicular to the extending direction of the winding shaft 12, along with the winding of the flexible display panel 20, a part of the gate lines are wound into the housing 10, at this time, when the display control circuit 50 knows which gate lines are wound, the gate line signals of the gate lines are set as preset signals, and the preset signals may be signals for closing the gate lines, such as low level signals or high level signals. Then, the display control circuit 50 outputs the preset signal to the gate lines of the flexible display panel 20 in the housing 10, so that the portion in the housing 10 is a black screen.
Optionally, as shown in fig. 5a, the display device 1 further includes:
two elastic members 60 respectively disposed at two ends of the winding shaft 12, wherein one end of each elastic member 60 is connected to the winding shaft 12, and the other end is fixed to the housing 10.
The flexible display panel 20 is unwound from the roll 12 such that the elastic member 60 is elastically deformed. At this time, if the winding shaft 12 rotates in the a direction, the winding shaft 12 rotates in the b direction along with the recovery of the elastic deformation of the elastic member 60, so as to bring the flexible display panel 20 back to the initial state. The a direction and the b direction are opposite.
Here, since the elastic members 60 are disposed at both ends of the winding shaft 12, and the structures of the elastic members 60 are the same, when the flexible display panel 20 is wound on the winding shaft 12, the forces on both sides are consistent, and the flexible display panel is prevented from being warped and tilted, that is, the flexible display panel 20 is prevented from being wound tightly on one side and tightly on the other side, and further the display effect is prevented from being affected. The manner in which the elastic member 60 is fixed to the housing 10 and the elastic member 60 are not limited to the present invention.
Optionally, as shown in fig. 5b, the display device 1 further includes:
in the reel 12, a shaft core 13 is provided, and the shaft core 13 is fixed to the housing 10.
Set up two elastomeric element 60 at spool 12 both ends respectively, elastomeric element 60 is the torsional spring, and the torsional spring cover is established on axle core 13, and spool 12 is connected to the one end of torsional spring, and axle core 13 is connected to the other end.
When the torsion spring is sleeved on the shaft core, the torsion spring has a certain deformation to generate a certain torsion, that is, when the flexible display panel 20 is in the initial state, the torsion spring already has the torsion, therefore, when the flexible display panel 20 drives the scroll 12 to rotate, that is, when the user unwinds the flexible display panel 20 from the scroll 12, the user overcomes the torsion of the torsion spring, the torsion spring further generates the deformation, on this basis, because the torsion spring generates the deformation, therefore, when the user loosens the hand, the flexible display panel 20 automatically retracts to the scroll 12, and restores to the initial state. Since the torsion spring has a torsion force in the initial state of the flexible display panel 20, it can help to wind the flexible display panel 20 on the reel 12.
Alternatively, the detection device 30 is a torque sensor.
It is understood that when the detecting device 30 is a torque sensor, the rotation parameter is torque accordingly.
Optionally, as shown in fig. 6-7 b, the display device 1 further includes a supporting member 70, and the supporting member 70 is connected to the housing 10 and disposed on a side of the flexible display panel 20 outside the housing, which is away from the light emitting surface.
As the flexible display panel 20 is wound on the roll 12, the support assembly 70 contracts in a first direction; as the flexible display panel 20 is unwound from the roll 12, the support assembly 70 extends in a second direction; the first and second directions are opposite and both perpendicular to the direction of extension of the spool 12.
The support member 70 functions to support and protect the flexible display panel 20. The connection point of the supporting component 70 and the housing 10 may be located at the opening 11, so that the flexible display panel 20 may be supported by penetrating through the opening 11, and the flatness of the flexible display panel 20 after being unfolded is ensured.
Illustratively, as shown in fig. 7b, as the flexible display panel 20 is wound on the roll 12, i.e., the roll 12 rotates in a counterclockwise direction, the support member 70 contracts in a c-direction; as the flexible display panel 20 is unwound from the roll 12, i.e., the roll 12 rotates in a clockwise direction, the support member 70 extends in a direction d, which is opposite to the direction d and perpendicular to the extending direction of the roll 12.
In addition, the length of the supporting member 70 may be longer than the effective length of the flexible display panel 20 outside the housing 10, and a handle may be formed in an unnecessary area to facilitate the user's operation.
Alternatively, as shown in fig. 6-7 b, the support assembly 70 includes a first support portion 71, a telescoping portion 73, and a second support portion 72.
The expansion portion 73 connects the first support portion 71 and the second support portion 72, and the first support portion 71 is also connected to the housing 10.
As an example, the first support portion 71 and the second support portion 72 may have an elongated structure, and an extending direction is parallel to an extending direction of the winding shaft 12, the first support portion 71 may be used to connect with the housing 10, and the second support portion 72 may be used to connect with one edge of the flexible display panel 20 (the edge is parallel to the extending direction of the winding shaft 12).
The embodiment of the present invention does not limit the specific connection manner, as long as the flexible display panel 20 can be connected and the force applied to the flexible display panel 20 is uniform when the flexible display panel is unfolded or wound.

s10, calculating a current pixel value corresponding to a portion of the flexible display panel 20 outside the housing according to the effective length of the flexible display panel 20 in the display device.
It is understood that when the flexible display panel 20 includes three primary color sub-pixels arranged in an array, the pixel values refer to red, green, and blue sub-pixel values.
S20, displaying the part of the flexible display panel 20 outside the housing according to the current pixel value, and displaying the part inside the housing 10 as a black screen.
The embodiment of the invention provides a display method of a display device, which is characterized in that a current pixel value corresponding to a part of a flexible display panel 20 outside a shell is obtained by calculation according to the effective length of the flexible display panel 20 in the display device, then the part of the flexible display panel 20 outside the shell is displayed according to the current pixel value, and the part of the flexible display panel 20 inside the shell is a black screen, so that an image can be adaptively displayed on the part of the flexible display panel 20 outside the shell and not displayed on the part inside the shell according to the real-time effective length, thereby improving the display effect, reducing the power consumption and saving the electric quantity.
Optionally, as shown in fig. 9, before S10, the method for displaying on a display device further includes:
and S1, acquiring the current torque. That is, the torque sensor detects that the corresponding torque is the current torque in the current state.
And S2, according to the current torque, looking up in a lookup table of the effective length and the torque of the display device to obtain the effective length corresponding to the current torque.
Wherein, the effective length of the display device in the lookup table has a one-to-one correspondence with the torque.
Before S1, the display method of the display device further includes: a look-up table of effective length and torque of the display device is obtained.
Exemplary, first step: and simulating the display device to obtain the one-to-one correspondence relationship between the effective length of the display device and the elasticity of the torsion spring.
The second step is that: and obtaining the one-to-one corresponding relation between the effective length and the torque of the display device according to the one-to-one corresponding relation between the effective length and the elasticity of the torsion spring and the one-to-one corresponding relation between the elasticity of the torsion spring and the torque.
The third step: and generating a lookup table about the effective length and the torque of the display device according to the one-to-one correspondence relationship between the effective length and the torque of the display device.
Alternatively, as shown in fig. 10, the S10 includes:
s110, judging whether the state of the display device is a winding state or an unfolding state.
For example, the number of winding turns of the flexible display panel may be measured by using a detection device, a difference between the number of previous turns and the current number of turns is determined, and if the difference is a positive value, the flexible display panel is in an unfolded state; if the value is negative, the winding state is established.
And S120, calculating the ratio of the total length to the effective length when the display device is in a winding state.
Wherein the total length is the length perpendicular to the extending direction of the roller 12 when the flexible display panel 20 is completely unfolded.
S121, dividing the flexible display panel 20 into a plurality of pixel groups along each row of pixels in the extending direction perpendicular to the reel 12 according to the ratio.
It should be noted that the number of pixel groups should be an integer, and when calculating the ratio, rounding should be performed.
And S122, according to the initial pixel values respectively corresponding to the plurality of pixels in each pixel group, performing weighting calculation to obtain a current pixel value corresponding to the part of the flexible display panel 20 outside the housing.
It should be noted that, the ratio is different, the number of pixel groups divided by each row of pixels is different, and the number of pixels included in the corresponding pixel group is different. So that the image can be displayed reduced by a corresponding factor in a direction perpendicular to the extension of the reel 12, according to different ratios.
For example, if the resolution of the flexible display panel 20 is 1000 × 2000, each row along the direction perpendicular to the extending direction of the reel 12 includes 2000 pixels, that is, the total length of the flexible display panel 20 is 2000 pixels, and assuming that the effective length is 500 pixels in the current state, the ratio is 4. At this time, 2000 pixels in each row are divided into 500 pixel groups by using 4 pixels as a group, and then an initial pixel value corresponding to the 4 pixels in each group is weighted to obtain a corresponding current pixel value.
For example, as shown in fig. 7a, with point O as the origin, the X direction is perpendicular to the extending direction of the spool 12, and the Y direction is parallel to the extending direction of the spool 12. At this time, the pixel values of the first row, the first column to the fourth column are (R)11,G11,B11)、(R12,G12,B12)、(R13,G13,B13)、(R14,G14,B14) Based thereon, the corresponding current pixel value is (R'11,G′11,B′11)。
Wherein R'11=R11W1+R12W2+R13W3+R14W4;G′11=G11W1+G12W2+G13W3+G14W4;B′11=B11W1+B12W2+B13W3+B14W4
It should be noted that, the weight involved in the weighting calculation process may be simulated by using a display device for multiple times, and then the corresponding relationship between the ratio of the total length to the effective length and the weight is obtained by fitting.
And S130, when the display device is in the unfolding state, taking an initial pixel value corresponding to each pixel in the part of the flexible display panel 20 outside the shell as a current pixel value.
