DISPLAY DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

  • This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18009958 Titled 'DISPLAY DEVICE'

Simplified Explanation

The disclosed display device includes a flexible display panel that can be wound or unwound around a roller. The roller is installed on a base that extends in a longitudinal direction. A link mount is supported by the base, and a link is pivotally connected to the link mount. The link lifts the display panel. A pivot magnet is fixed to the pivot center of the link, and a magnetic sensor detects the position of the pivot magnet. A controller controls the movement of the link. The controller can change the position of the pivot magnet within a specific section. The controller calculates the angle information formed by the link with respect to the base based on the position information of the pivot magnet and adjusts the movement of the link accordingly.


Original Abstract Submitted

Disclosed is display device. The display device of the present disclosure includes: a flexible display panel; a roller around which the display panel is wound or from which the display panel is unwound; a base which extends in a longitudinal direction of the roller, and in which the roller is rotatably installed; a link mount supported by the base; a link which is pivotally connected to the link mount, and lifts the display panel; a pivot magnet fixed to a pivot center of the link; a magnetic sensor which detects a position of the pivot magnet; and a controller which controls a movement of the link, wherein when a position section of the pivot magnet is divided into an effective position section Ieff and an error position section Ierr, a position of the pivot magnet is changed within the effective position section, wherein the controller calculates angle information formed by the link with respect to the base from position information of the pivot magnet, and adjusts movement of the link based on the angle information.
