Abstract

An electronic device is provided, including: a display screen provided with a first surface and a second surface arranged oppositely, the display screen including: a primary display screen comprising a first portion disposed on the first surface and a second portion extending from a portion connected to the first portion to the second surface, wherein the second portion is connected to a portion of the first portion; and a secondary display screen connected to a remaining portion of the first portion, the secondary display screen being bent from a first surface of the portion connected to the first portion to the second surface.

Claims

1. An electronic device, comprising:

a display screen provided with a first surface and a second surface arranged oppositely, the display screen comprising;

a primary display screen comprising a first portion disposed on the first surface and a second portion extending from a portion connected to the first portion to the second surface, wherein the second portion is connected to a portion of the first portion; and

a secondary display screen connected to a remaining portion of the first portion, the secondary display screen being bent from a first surface of the portion connected to the first portion to the second surface, one side of the secondary display screen being connected to the remaining portion of the first portion, and the width of the secondary display screen being smaller than the width of the primary display screen;

wherein the remaining portion of the first portion is a portion not connected to the second portion.

2. The electronic device according to claim 1, wherein the portion connected to the first portion and the secondary display screen is disposed in a central portion at the top of the first portion, the second portion extends from edge regions on two sides of the first portion to the second surface, and the edge regions are disposed on one of the two sides of the portion connected to the primary display screen and the secondary display screen.

3. The electronic device according to claim 2, wherein the primary display screen is provided with an opening disposed between the edge regions.

4. The electronic device according to claim 3, wherein the opening is disposed in a curved portion between the first portion and the second portion.

5. The electronic device of claim 4, further comprising a function module disposed corresponding to the opening, the function module comprising at least one of a first camera module, a second camera module, an earpiece, and a sensor element.

6. The electronic device according to claim 4, wherein the curved portion on both sides of the opening is provided with touch keys disposed thereon.

7. The electronic device according to claim 3, wherein the opening is disposed at the top or the bottom of the display screen.

8. The electronic device according to claim 1, wherein an end portion of the second portion distant from the first portion abuts the secondary display screen.

9. An electronic device, comprising:

a display screen provided with a first surface and a second surface arranged oppositely, the display screen comprising;

a primary display screen comprising a first portion disposed on the first surface and a second portion extending from a portion connected to the first portion to the second surface, wherein the second portion is connected to a portion of the first portion; and

a secondary display screen connected to a remaining portion of the first portion, the secondary display screen being bent from a first surface of the portion connected to the first portion to the second surface;

wherein the remaining portion of the first portion is a portion not connected to the second portion.

10. The electronic device according to claim 9, wherein one side of the secondary display screen is connected to the remaining portion of the first portion.

11. The electronic device according to claim 9, wherein the portion connected to the first portion and the secondary display screen is disposed in a central portion at the top of the first portion, the second portion extends from edge regions on two sides of the first portion to the second surface, and the edge regions are disposed on one of the two sides of the portion connected to the primary display screen and the secondary display screen.

12. The electronic device according to claim 11, wherein the primary display screen is provided with an opening disposed between the edge regions.

13. The electronic device according to claim 12, wherein the opening is disposed in a curved portion between the first portion and the second portion.

14. The electronic device according to claim 12, further comprising a function module disposed corresponding to the opening, the function module comprising at least one of a first camera module, a second camera module, an earpiece, and a sensor element.

15. The electronic device according to claim 13, wherein the curved portion on both sides of the opening is provided with touch keys disposed thereon.

16. The electronic device according to claim 9, wherein the opening is disposed at the top or the bottom of the display screen.

17. The electronic device according to claim 9, wherein an end portion of the second portion distant from the first portion abuts the secondary display screen.

18. The electronic device according to claim 9, wherein the width of the secondary display screen is smaller than the width of the primary display screen.
