METAL SUPPORT AND FLEXIBLE DISPLAY DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17423254 titled 'METAL SUPPORT AND FLEXIBLE DISPLAY DEVICE

Simplified Explanation

The present disclosure is about a metal support structure for a flexible display device. The support structure includes a bendable region, a non-bendable region, and a patterned region covering the bendable region. The patterned region has a series of hollowed-out parts arranged in columns, with openings at intervals along a certain direction. The patterned region also has two opposite edges, with the hollowed-out part near one edge being arc-shaped and the convex sides of two arcs facing each other. The bendable region can bend in a first direction, while the columns of hollowed-out parts are arranged side by side along the first direction.

  • Metal support structure for a flexible display device
  • Includes a bendable region, a non-bendable region, and a patterned region
  • Patterned region has columns of hollowed-out parts with openings at intervals
  • Hollowed-out part near one edge is arc-shaped with convex sides facing each other
  • Bendable region can bend in a first direction
  • Columns of hollowed-out parts are arranged side by side along the first direction

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Flexible display devices, such as smartphones, tablets, and wearable devices
  • Electronic devices that require a flexible support structure

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Provides a metal support structure that allows for flexibility in certain regions while maintaining rigidity in others
  • Enables the creation of flexible display devices that can withstand bending without damaging the display components

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved durability and longevity of flexible display devices
  • Enhanced user experience with devices that can bend and conform to different shapes
  • Enables the development of new form factors and designs for electronic devices.


Original Abstract Submitted

The present disclosure relates to a metal support including a bendable region, a non-bendable region, and at least one patterned region covering at least the bendable region. The bendable region is capable of bending in a first direction, a plurality of columns of hollowed-out parts arranged side by side along the first direction are arranged in the patterned region, each column of the hollowed-out parts includes a plurality of openings arranged at intervals along the second direction, and the patterned region includes two first edges arranged opposite to each other in the first direction, the hollowed-out part near the first edge is arc-shaped, convex sides of two arcs face each other, and the first direction and the second direction are perpendicular. The present disclosure also relates to a flexible display device.
