When the following description refers to the accompanying drawings, like numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements unless otherwise indicated. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with the present invention. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatus and methods consistent with certain aspects of the invention, as detailed in the appended claims.

Fig. 1 is a first schematic structural diagram of a terminal device according to an exemplary embodiment. As shown in fig. 1, the terminal device includes at least:

a housing 101;

an audio output module 102;

the driving module 103 is connected with the audio output module 102 and drives the audio output module 102 to move between a first position and a second position, wherein the first position is positioned in the shell, and the second position is positioned outside the shell;

when the audio output module 102 is in an audio output state, the audio output module 102 is driven to move to a second position;

when the audio output module 102 exits the audio output state, the audio output module 102 is driven to move to the first position.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the terminal device includes, but is not limited to, a mobile device and a fixed device, and the mobile device includes, but is not limited to, a notebook or a tablet computer; the stationary device includes, but is not limited to, a television or a desktop computer.

In one embodiment, the terminal device comprises a television.

The shape of the housing may be set according to user requirements, for example, when the terminal device is a television, the housing may be set to be rectangular, and the embodiment of the disclosure is not limited.

The shell can be provided with an opening for the audio output module to come in and go out, and when the audio output module is in an audio output state, the audio output module moves to a second position through the opening; when the audio output module exits the audio output state, the audio output module moves to the first position through the opening.

The audio output module is used for outputting audio signals, so that people can hear sounds, such as music, conversations of people in videos and the like. The audio output module is connected with the driving module and can move between a first position and a second position.

Said moving between the first position and the second position comprises: from the first position to the second position or from the second position to the first position. For example, when an audio signal needs to be output, the audio output module can be driven to move from the inside of the shell to the outside of the shell, namely from the first position to the second position; when audio output is not needed, the audio output module can be driven to move from the outside of the shell to the inside of the shell, namely, from the second position to the first position.

In some embodiments, moving the audio output module between the first position and the second position comprises: the audio output module is moved between the first position and the second position by rotation and/or translation. When the audio output module moves between the first position and the second position through rotation, the motion trail of the audio output module is a curve; when the audio output module moves between the first position and the second position through translation, the motion trail of the audio output module is a straight line.

Above-mentioned runner assembly includes the dwang, under the effect that the motor produced the pivoted force, can rotate round axle center court opposite direction, and then drive audio output module and move between primary importance and second place. For example, when the rotating component rotates towards the first direction, the audio output module is driven to move from the first position to the second position. When the rotating component rotates towards the second direction, the audio output module is driven to move from the second position to the first position, and the first direction is opposite to the second direction.

The audio output state represents that the audio output module needs to output an audio signal. The audio output module exits the audio output state, and represents that the audio output module does not need to output an audio signal currently, and at this time, the terminal device may execute an operation that does not need to output a sound on a screen of the terminal device, for example, browse information on the terminal device or write information on the terminal device.

For example, whether the audio output module is in the audio output state or not can be determined by the on-off state of the terminal device. For example, when the terminal device is a television, if the television is in a power-on state, it may be indicated that the audio output module needs to output an audio signal, and it may be determined that the audio output module is in an audio output state; if the television is in the power-off state, the audio output module does not need to output the audio signal, and the audio output module can be determined to exit the audio output state.

Of course, it may also be detected whether the audio output module is in the audio output state by the detection module, and the embodiment of the disclosure is not limited. Wherein, the detection module includes but is not limited to a sound sensor.

For example, taking a television as an example, if the television is in the on state but the user currently turns the volume to zero, the same indicates that the current audio output module is not in the audio output state yet.

As shown in fig. 3, the terminal device includes a screen, a surface on which the screen is located is a front surface of the terminal device, a surface opposite to the surface on which the screen is located is a back surface of the terminal device, and as can be seen from the front surface and the back surface of the terminal device, the existing audio output module 102 is hidden in the housing, and the audio output module 102 is fixed in the housing.

At this time, the audio output module 102 is hidden in the housing and does not output audio signals.

As shown in fig. 5, the terminal device includes two screens, a face where the screen is located is a front face of the terminal device, a face opposite to the face where the screen is located is a back face of the terminal device, 5a is a front face diagram of the terminal device, 5b is a back face diagram of the terminal device, and two audio output modules 102 are arranged in the terminal device; as can be seen from the front view and the back view, when the audio output module 102 is in the audio output state, the terminal device drives the audio output module 102 to move to the second position outside the housing through the driving module, and the two audio output modules 102 in the terminal device are exposed from two sides to output audio signals.

And an audio output component is arranged on the first area exposed outside the shell.

That is, when there is no need to output an audio signal, the rotating body may be rotated into the housing; when the audio signal is required to be output, only the first region of the rotating body, on which the audio output assembly is disposed, may be rotated out of the housing. Therefore, compared with the method that the rotating body is completely rotated out of the shell, the rotating body can be reduced in the area where the rotating body is rotated out of the shell, and the occupied space is further reduced.
