Microsoft Surface screen folding use special hinges

Microsoft is setting up a tablet that is supported by folding screens. A picture shows that a tablet that Microsoft developed will have a folding screen feature.

To create a folding screen, WindowsUnited reveals that Microsoft has worked on a special hinge that uses a search to reduce the pressure on a flexible and collapsible display.

As reported by The Verge,

The fluid can fill the cavity inside the flexible screen, to make the bend and move to a different position.

Examples of Microsoft devices demonstrate some of the concepts of hinge assembly with structure to "prevent foreign material from entering the hinge assembly or device."

A picture also shows the complexity of the hinge. This patent is filed by a "Microsoft technology license," which indicates Microsoft may license it to a partner.

Microsoft is currently working with Intel and some OEMs to set up a new version of Windows, codenamed "Windows Lite," which will run on collapsible devices and dual-screen devices.

This new version of Windows will be targeted for dual-screen hardware and folding devices. Previously, Microsoft has also licensed some Surface Pro hinges for partners.
