ELECTRONIC DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18433639 titled 'ELECTRONIC DEVICE

The abstract describes an electronic device with a display module and a window module, where the display panel has a bent second area, a data line, and a first line insulated from the pixel. The window module includes a glass substrate and a window protective layer with a protrusion portion.

  • Display module with a bent second area and data line connected to the pixel
  • Window module with glass substrate and window protective layer with a protrusion portion
  • Separation area defined by the end of the optical film and bending cover layer
  • Overlapping of data line and first line in the separation area
  • Protrusion portion overlapping the first line in the separation area

Potential Applications: - Consumer electronics - Automotive displays - Medical devices

Problems Solved: - Improved durability of display modules - Enhanced visual quality - Increased flexibility in design

Benefits: - Enhanced display performance - Increased device longevity - Versatile design options

Commercial Applications: - Smartphone displays - Car infotainment systems - Medical imaging devices

Questions about the technology: 1. How does the bent second area of the display panel impact the overall device performance? 2. What are the specific advantages of the protrusion portion in the window protective layer?

Frequently Updated Research: - Ongoing studies on the impact of bending cover layers on display durability - Research on the use of protrusion portions in window protective layers for enhanced protection.


Original Abstract Submitted

An electronic device includes a display module including a display panel including a first area in which a pixel is disposed, a second area adjacent to the first area and bent with respect to an imaginary axis, a data line connected to the pixel, and a first line insulated from the pixel, an optical film, and a bending cover layer and a window module including a glass substrate and a window protective layer including a cover portion disposed on the glass substrate and a protrusion portion protruding from the cover portion. An end of the optical film and an end of the bending cover layer, which faces the end of the optical film, defines a separation area, the data line and the first line overlap the separation area when viewed in a plane, and the protrusion portion overlaps the first line in the separation area when viewed in a plane.
