Abstract

A folding device is provided. The folding device includes a bearing and fixing mechanism (1) configured to bear and fix a main body portion (21) of a to-be-folded device (2); a folding mechanism (3) located on at least one side of the bearing and fixing mechanism (1), the folding mechanism (3) being rotatably connected to the bearing and fixing mechanism (1) and configured to bear and fix a to-be-folded portion (22) of the to-be-folded device (2); and a driving mechanism (4) connected to the folding mechanism (3), the driving mechanism (4) being configured to drive the folding mechanism (3) to turn relative to the bearing and fixing mechanism (1), so as to fold the to-be-folded portion (22) to a side in a thickness direction of the main body portion (21). The folding device can fold automatically, and manual folding is avoided.
