Title:
ELECTRONIC DEVICE HAVING ROLLABLE DISPLAY AND SLIDING STRUCTURE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2024/039089
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
This electronic device may comprise: a first housing; a second housing which is arranged to be slid with respect to the first housing; a rollable display which has a display area reduced or expanded on the basis of a slide-in or slide-out operation of the second housing; a slide motor which generates a driving force for driving sliding of the second housing; a vibrator; a motor driving circuit for driving the slide motor; a vibrator driving circuit for driving the vibrator; a sensor which generates data required to recognize a slide-in or slide-out state of the second housing; and a processor which is connected to the rollable display, the motor driving circuit, the vibrator driving circuit, and the sensor. The processor may recognize generation of an event which triggers vibration of the vibrator. On the basis that a state of the electronic device, identified using the sensor, is a slide-in or slide-out state and the event is generated, the processor may control the motor driving circuit to apply a force to a rotor of the slide motor in a direction of rotation which causes a change in the state of the electronic device, the direction of rotation corresponding to a second slide direction opposite to a first slide direction. The processor may control the vibrator driving circuit to vibrate the vibrator while the force is applied to the rotor in the direction of rotation corresponding to the second slide direction.
