Microsoft's new patent: dual-screen device connection hinge makes the volume smaller_Company News 3

A new era of smart devices may be on the horizon as Microsoft receives approval for a groundbreaking patent that could revolutionize the design of dual-screen devices. Traditionally, the upper and lower parts of clamshell mobile phones have consisted of the keyboard and screen. However, if both parts could function as screens, an entirely new type of device could emerge. While Sony attempted a dual-screen notebook in the past, their bulky hinge connection ultimately led to its failure. Microsoft's patent, on the other hand, offers a solution to this problem by introducing a compact and seamlessly integrated hinge mechanism.

Submitted in 2010, the patent application specifically addresses the challenge of limited opening angles and the trade-off with a bulky hinge. Microsoft's innovative hinge allows the device to fully open to a flat 180-degree position without the need for a protruding hinge. This breakthrough mechanism, described as a "Multi-axis hinge mechanism allowing fixed pivotal movement between two parts of the device at least 180 degrees open for mobile electronic devices," effectively eliminates the previously encountered limitation.

Crucially, this patent not only solves the issue of limited opening angles but also maintains the device's aesthetics without compromising battery life, thickness, or other important parameters. While the filing of a patent does not guarantee that Microsoft will implement this technology in their future products, its approval signifies the potential for a new era of mobile devices that will delight both consumers and Microsoft enthusiasts alike.
