Fig. 2 is a block diagram of a software structure of an electronic device according to an embodiment of the present application. The layered architecture divides the software into several layers, each with distinct roles and branches. The layers communicate with each other through a software interface. In the embodiment of the application, an Android (Android) system is taken as an example, and a software structure of an electronic device of the Android system is described. In some embodiments, the Android system is divided into five layers, from top to bottom, an application layer, an application framework layer (also called a system framework layer), a system library and Android runtime layer, a hardware abstraction layer (hardware abstraction layer, HAL), and a kernel layer, respectively.
The application layer may include several applications (hereinafter simply referred to as applications), such as cameras, gallery, calendars, WLANs, etc.
The application framework layer provides an application programming interface (Application Programming Interface, API) and programming framework for applications of the application layer, including various components and services to support the android development of the developer. The application framework layer also includes some predefined functions. In an embodiment of the present application, the application framework layer may include: display manager, layer assembler (SurfaceFlinger), etc.
The display screen manager is used for managing the display screen.

The folding angle detection drive is used for driving the folding angle detection component.
In the following embodiments, a method for switching a display screen according to the embodiments of the present application will be described in detail with reference to a software structure of the electronic device.
The display screen switching method can be applied to electronic equipment provided with at least 2 display screens. The electronic device may be, for example, a foldable device provided with at least 2 display screens, such as a foldable mobile phone provided with an inner screen and an outer screen.
In one embodiment, as shown in fig. 3A, the foldable device may include a first part 101 and a second part 102, the first part 101 and the second part 102 being connected by a folding part 100, and the folding part 100 may support the first part 101 and the second part 102 to be folded or unfolded about the folding part 100. Based on the folding angle θ of the first member 101 and the second member 102, the foldable apparatus is divided into three states, in other words, the positional relationship of the first member 101 and the second member 102 can be divided into three states, respectively:
a fully unfolded state in which the folding angle θ of the first member 101 and the second member 102 is 180 degrees;
an incompletely folded state in which the folding angle θ of the first member 101 and the second member 102 is less than 180 degrees and greater than 0 degrees;
in the fully folded state, the folding angle θ of the first member 101 and the second member 102 is 0 degrees.
The surface of the foldable device may be divided into an outer surface and an inner surface based on whether the user is visible when the foldable device is in the fully folded state. The outer surface refers to a surface that is viewable by a user of the foldable device in the fully folded state, and may include a front, a back, and a side that are viewable by the user of the foldable device in the fully folded state, in terms of viewing and use by the user. The inner surface refers to a surface that is not visible to a user when the foldable device is in a fully folded state. The front, back and side surfaces described above may be considered to be the front, back and side surfaces from the perspective of a user's view and use.
Wherein the inner surface of the foldable device may comprise: a first surface of the first part 101 and a second surface of the second part 102. The first surface of the first part 101 is a surface of the foldable device that is not visible to a user in the surface of the first part 101 in the fully folded state and the second surface of the second part 102 is a surface of the foldable device that is not visible to a user in the surface of the second part 102 in the fully folded state.
Take the example of a foldable device provided with 2 display screens.
The outer surface of the foldable device may be provided with a display screen, called the outer screen, and the inner surface of the foldable device may be provided with a display screen, called the inner screen.
The outer screen may be a foldable screen or a non-foldable screen. The location of the outer screen on the outer surface is not limited in this embodiment. For example, the number of the cells to be processed,
if the outer screen is a non-foldable screen, the outer screen may be disposed on the front or back of the foldable device in a fully folded state;
if the outer screen is a foldable screen, the outer screen may be disposed on the front and back of the foldable device in a fully folded state, such that the outer screen folds or unfolds with the folding or unfolding of the first and second members 101, 102.
The inner screen may be a foldable screen or a non-foldable screen. The location of the placement of the inner screen on the inner surface is not limited in this embodiment. For example, the number of the cells to be processed,
if the inner screen is a non-foldable screen, the inner screen may be disposed on a first surface of the first component 101 or may be disposed on a second surface of the second component 102;
if the inner screen is a foldable screen, the inner screen may be disposed on the first surface of the first member 101 and the second surface of the second member 102 such that as the first member 101 and the second member 102 are folded or unfolded, the inner screen is folded or unfolded.
For example, in the foldable device shown in fig. 3B, the outer screen 1011 of the foldable device is provided on the front surface of the foldable device in the fully folded state, the inner screen 1021 is a foldable screen, and is provided on the first surface of the first member 101 and the second surface of the second member 102, and as the first member 101 and the second member 102 are folded or unfolded about the folding member 100, the inner screen 1021 is folded or unfolded accordingly. In some embodiments, the foldable device shown in fig. 3B may be a foldable cellular phone.
The dimensions of the outer screen 1011 and the inner screen 1021 are not limited in the embodiment of the present application.
It should be noted that, in the above embodiment, the electronic device includes 2 display screens as an example, and in other embodiments of the present application, the electronic device, for example, the foldable device, may further include display screens other than the external screen and the internal screen, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.
In the embodiment of the present application, a foldable device including an outer screen and an inner screen is illustrated in fig. 3B as an example.
Fig. 4 is a schematic flow chart of a display screen switching method according to an embodiment of the present application, which may be applicable to an electronic device including 2 or more display screens provided in an embodiment of the present application, for example, the above-mentioned foldable device shown in fig. 3A and fig. 3B, etc.
In fig. 4 it is assumed that the electronic device comprises a first display screen and a second display screen. The first display screen may be the external screen or the internal screen described above, and the second display screen may be the internal screen if the first display screen is the external screen, and the second display screen may be the external screen if the first display screen is the internal screen.
As shown in fig. 4, the method may include:
step 401: when switching from the first display screen to the second display screen, controlling the first display screen to start a power-on flow;
step 402: and before the lower current process of the first display screen is completed, controlling the second display screen to start the power-on process.
Alternatively, steps 401 and 402 described above may be performed by a HWC in an electronic device.
In the display screen switching method shown in fig. 4, after the first display screen is controlled to start the down current process, the second display screen is controlled to start the power-on process before the down current process of the first display screen is completed, so that the second display screen is controlled to start the power-on process without waiting for the completion of the down current process of the first display screen, thereby shortening the switching time from the first display screen to the second display screen and improving the switching speed of the display screens.
Fig. 5 is a schematic structural diagram of another embodiment of an electronic device according to the present application, where the electronic device is a foldable mobile phone including an inner screen and an outer screen shown in fig. 3B, and the structure of the electronic device may be used to implement the display screen switching method shown in fig. 4. As shown in fig. 5, includes:
and the display screen manager is used for managing the display screen for displaying the user interface based on the folding angle and the like of the electronic equipment.

The HWC may be disposed in a HAL layer of the electronic device, and the inner screen driver, the outer screen driver, and the fold angle detection driver may be disposed in a kernel layer of the electronic device.
It should be noted that the structure shown in fig. 5 is merely an example, and in other embodiments provided in the present application, modules in the above structure may be combined or split, or a layer where the modules are located may also be adaptively adjusted based on a software structure of the electronic device, or the like.
The implementation of the display screen switching method shown in fig. 4 is exemplarily described below based on the electronic device structure shown in fig. 5.
Fig. 6 is a schematic flow chart of another display screen switching method according to an embodiment of the present application, where the electronic device is a foldable mobile phone, and the foldable mobile phone includes an inner screen and an outer screen.
Step 601: the display screen manager receives the detection data of the folding angle, which is sent by the angle detection component drive.
The angle detection component driver may periodically send the detected folding angle to the display manager, and the specific value of the period is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.
It should be noted that, the smaller the period value, the higher the accuracy of the angle detection component driving for detecting the folding angle, and correspondingly, the more accurate the display screen manager determines the trigger timing of the subsequent display screen switching.
Step 602: and the display screen manager determines that the first switching condition of the display screen from the inner screen to the outer screen is met according to the detection data of the folding angle, and determines that the display screen is switched from the inner screen to the outer screen.
Alternatively, the switching of the display screen may be triggered during folding or unfolding of the electronic device.
For the folding process of the electronic device, as shown in fig. 7A, when the electronic device is in a fully unfolded state, the first component and the second component move towards each other, and the folding angle gradually decreases from 180 degrees until finally decreasing to 0 degrees, and the electronic device becomes the fully folded state, in this folding process, the display screen may be switched from the inner screen to the outer screen, that is, the inner screen is powered down, and the outer screen is powered up, specifically, a first angle threshold θ1 may be preset, in the folding process, when the folding angle changes from greater than or equal to θ1 to less than θ1, that is, when the folding angle changes from 180 degrees to the folding angle θ1 shown in the middle drawing in fig. 7A, and then continues to fold, the display screen is triggered to switch from the inner screen to the outer screen, where in this implementation, the first switching condition is that the folding angle changes from greater than or equal to θ1 to less than θ1.
For the unfolding process of the electronic device, as shown in fig. 7B, when the electronic device is in a fully folded state, the first component and the second component move away, the folding angle gradually increases from 0 degrees until finally increasing to 180 degrees, and the electronic device becomes the fully unfolded state, in this unfolding process, the display screen can be switched from the outer screen to the inner screen, that is, the outer screen is powered down, and the inner screen is powered on, specifically, a second angle threshold θ2 can be preset, in the unfolding process, when the folding angle is changed from θ2 to be greater than θ2, that is, when the folding angle is unfolded from 0 degrees to θ2 shown in the middle drawing in fig. 7B, and then folding is continued, the display screen is triggered to be switched from the outer screen to the inner screen, and in this implementation, the second switching condition for switching from the outer screen to the inner screen is that the folding angle is changed from θ2 to be greater than θ2.
Wherein θ1 and θ2 may be equal or unequal, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited.
