Book-style sliding pivot hinge

1. An information handling system comprising:

a flexible display screen;

first and second display platforms, the flexible display screen movably mounted to the first and second display platforms; and

a sliding pivot hinge with at least two sliding pivot hinge sides; and

at least one sliding pivot hinge side in physical communication with the first display platform and which slides in relation to the first display platform;

a tensioner to apply constant tension on the first display platform relative to the sliding pivot hinge wherein the tensioner is a constant tension spring integrated into the at least one hinge side of the sliding pivot hinge,

wherein the flexible display screen is supported across the first and second display platforms by translation of the first display platform relative to the sliding pivot hinge.

2. The information handling system of claim 1 , further comprising:

a second sliding pivot hinge side in physical communication with the second display platform and which slides in relation to the second display platform.

3. The information handling system of claim 2 , wherein the first display platform and the second display platform both translate relative to the sliding pivot hinge during change in configuration of the information handling system.

4. The information handling system of claim 1 , further comprising:

a flexible display interface to maintain the first and second display platform and the sliding pivot hinge in communication with the flexible display screen.

5. The information handling system of claim 4 , wherein the flexible display interface includes a magnet in magnetic communication with a ferric metal layer of the flexible display screen.

6. The information handling system of claim 1 , further comprising:

a second tensioner to apply constant tension on the second display platform relative to the sliding pivot hinge.

7. The information handling system of claim 1 , further comprising:

a hinge locking mechanism to maintain the information handling system in at least one configuration position.

8. An information handling system comprising:

a flexible display screen;

first and second display platforms, the flexible display screen movably mounted to the first and second display platforms; and

a sliding pivot hinge with at least two sliding pivot hinge sides;

at least one sliding pivot hinge side in physical communication with the first display platform and which slides relative to the first display platform; and

a flexible display interface to maintain the first and second display platform and the sliding pivot hinge in communication with the flexible display screen, wherein the flexible display interface includes a flexible magnetic track in magnetic communication with a ferric metal layer of the flexible display screen.

9. The information handling system of claim 8 , further comprising:

a pivot pin disposed between the at least two sliding pivot hinge sides.

10. The information handling system of claim 8 , further comprising:

a tensioner to apply constant tension on the first display platform relative to the sliding pivot hinge.

11. The information handling system of claim 8 further comprising:

a tensioner to apply constant tension on the first display platform relative to the sliding pivot hinge wherein the tensioner is a constant tension spring.

12. The information handling system of claim 11 , wherein the flexible magnetic track exerts magnetic force to maintain magnetic communication between the flexible display screen and the flexible magnetic track after change in configuration of the first and second display platforms relative to one another.

13. The information handling system of claim 12 , wherein the at least one sliding pivot hinge side slides along the first display platform in response to first and second display platforms moving from an open position to a closed position.

14. The information handling system of claim 8 , wherein the flexible display interface includes a magnet embedded in a flexible substrate proximate to the sliding pivot hinge.

15. An information handling system comprising:

a flexible display screen;

first and second display platforms, the flexible display screen movably mounted to the first and second display platforms; and

a sliding pivot hinge with at least two sliding pivot hinge sides;

at least one sliding pivot hinge side in physical communication with the first display platform and which slides in relation to the first display platform; and

a tensioner to apply constant tension on the first display platform relative to the sliding pivot hinge; and

a hinge locking mechanism to maintain the information handling system in at least one configuration position,

wherein the flexible display screen is supported across the first and second display platforms by translation of the first display platform relative to the sliding pivot hinge.

16. The information handling system of claim 15 , further comprising:

a second sliding pivot hinge side in physical communication with the second display platform and which slides in relation to the second display platform.

17. The information handling system of claim 16 , further comprising:

a second tensioner to apply constant tension on the second display platform relative to the sliding pivot hinge.

18. The information handling system of claim 17 , wherein the first and second tensioners exert a shear force on the first and second display platforms to push the first and second display platforms to an open position relative to one another.

19. The information handling system of claim 17 , wherein the first and second tensioners exert a shear force on the first and second display platforms to pull the first and second display platforms to an closed position relative to one another.

20. The information handling system of claim 15 , wherein the tensioner exerts a shear force on the first display platforms to push the first display platforms to an open position relative to the second display platform.
