FLEXIBLE DISPLAY MODULE AND MOBILE TERMINAL - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17619668 titled 'FLEXIBLE DISPLAY MODULE AND MOBILE TERMINAL

Simplified Explanation

The flexible display module described in the patent application includes a first bending region, a second bending region, and at least one bidirectional bending region located at an overlap position between the first and second bending regions. The module also includes a support layer with a cut-out structure in the bidirectional bending region, which consists of multiple cut-out holes arranged in a cross manner.

  • Support layer with cut-out structure:
 - The support layer of the flexible display module includes a cut-out structure with multiple cut-out holes.
 - The cut-out structure is at least disposed in the bidirectional bending region.
 - Each cut-out hole has a long axis and a short axis arranged in a cross manner.
  • Bidirectional bending region:
 - The bidirectional bending region is located at an overlap position between the first and second bending regions.
 - It allows the flexible display module to bend in multiple directions without compromising its structural integrity.
  • Potential Applications:
 - Flexible displays for smartphones, tablets, and wearable devices.
 - Foldable electronic devices such as foldable smartphones and laptops.
  • Problems Solved:
 - Enables the creation of flexible electronic devices with improved durability and flexibility.
 - Addresses the challenge of designing displays that can bend in multiple directions without breaking.
  • Benefits:
 - Enhanced user experience with devices that can be bent and folded.
 - Increased durability and longevity of electronic devices with flexible displays.
  • Potential Commercial Applications:
 - Consumer electronics industry for the development of innovative and flexible devices.
 - Display technology companies looking to create cutting-edge products with bendable displays.
  • Possible Prior Art:
 - Samsung's foldable smartphones with flexible displays.
 - LG's rollable OLED TV screens.

Questions:

1. How does the cut-out structure in the support layer contribute to the flexibility of the display module? 2. What are some specific examples of consumer electronic devices that could benefit from this flexible display module technology?
