Claims (22)

1. A portable desktop computer, comprising:

a columnar host; and

a flexible display;

wherein a ring groove, into which the flexible display is wound and from which said flexible display is unfolded, is provided on a columnar outer surface of the columnar host; and the columnar host is provided with one or more block pins used for blocking the flexible display when wound within the ring groove, and

the flexible display is enabled to be switched between the wound state within the ring groove and the unfolded state only under the condition that the blocking effect of the one or more block pins are released; and

wherein the one or more block pins are retractable projections which are provided at edge positions of two opposite ring surfaces of the ring groove; and

wherein a width of the ring groove is substantially equal to a width of the flexible display, and a minimum depth of the ring groove is greater than a thickness of the flexible display; and

wherein the columnar host is provided with a hollow cavity; and the hollow cavity is provided with a heat sink; and

wherein an air inlet is provided above the hollow cavity of the columnar host and an air outlet is provided below the hollow cavity; and

wherein an interface panel for the columnar host is provided at a bottom of the ring groove of the columnar host.

2. The portable desktop computer of claim 1 , wherein the columnar host is provided with a hollow cavity; and the hollow cavity is provided with a heat sink.

3. The portable desktop computer of claim 2 , wherein the heat sink is of a hollow polygonal prismatic structure.

4. The portable desktop computer of claim 3 , wherein the heat sink is of a structure having multiple layers which nest each other.

5. The portable desktop computer of claim 2 , wherein a fan is provided above the heat sink.

6. The portable desktop computer of claim 1 , wherein the columnar host and the flexible display each are provided with video transmission interfaces.

7. The portable desktop computer of claim 1 , further comprising a frame for supporting the flexible display, wherein the frame is a rod-shaped structure of a curved arc or a straight rod.

8. The portable desktop computer of claim 7 , further comprising a base for supporting the flexible display, and the base is provided with an angle adjusting means for adjusting the pitch angle of the flexible display and a height adjusting means for adjusting the height of the flexible display.

9. The portable desktop computer of claim 1 , wherein the columnar outer surface of the columnar host is a cylindrical surface or a polygonal prismatic surface.

10. The portable desktop computer of claim 1 , wherein one end of the flexible display remains connecting with the columnar host to accomplish the stability of the flexible display unfolded and the signal transmission with the host.

11. The portable desktop computer of claim 1 , wherein the display face of the flexible display faces inwards when the display is wound.

12. The portable desktop computer of claim 1 , wherein the display face of the flexible display faces outwards when the display is wound.
