ELECTRONIC DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240045467 titled 'ELECTRONIC DEVICE

Simplified Explanation

The disclosed electronic device includes a display module, a window above the display module with a bottom surface facing the display module, and a top surface opposite to the bottom surface. It also includes a lower film below the display module and a plate below the lower film, which consists of a first non-folding part, a first folding part, a second non-folding part, a second folding part, and a third non-folding part arranged sequentially. The first folding part can be folded with a first curvature and has first holes, while the second folding part can be folded with a second curvature different from the first curvature and has second holes. There is a first adhesion layer between the window and the plate, defining a first opening that overlaps the first folding part and some of the first holes.

  • The electronic device has a display module with a window and a plate below it.
  • The plate is divided into non-folding and folding parts, allowing for different curvatures.
  • The folding parts have holes, providing flexibility and potential for additional functionality.
  • The window is attached to the plate using an adhesion layer, creating an opening for the folding part and holes.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Foldable electronic devices: The ability to fold the device with different curvatures can enable the creation of foldable smartphones, tablets, or other portable devices.
  • Flexible displays: The folding parts with holes can be utilized to create flexible displays that can be bent or curved.
  • Enhanced user experience: The flexibility and unique design of the device can provide users with a more immersive and interactive experience.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Fragility of displays: The folding parts and the ability to adjust curvatures can reduce the risk of damage to the display module.
  • Limited portability: The foldable design allows for compact storage and easy transportation of the device.
  • Space optimization: The folding parts and the arrangement of the plate can optimize the use of space within the device.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Versatility: The device can be folded with different curvatures, providing versatility in usage and design.
  • Durability: The design reduces the risk of damage to the display module, increasing the device's lifespan.
  • Portability: The foldable design allows for easy portability and storage of the device.


Original Abstract Submitted

disclosed is an electronic device including a display module, a window above the display module and including a bottom surface facing the display module, and a top surface opposite to the bottom surface, a lower film below the display module, a plate below the lower film and including a first non-folding part, a first folding part, a second non-folding part, a second folding part, and a third non-folding part that are sequentially arranged, the first folding part being configured to be folded with a first curvature and defining first holes, and the second folding part being configured to be folded with a second curvature that is different from the first curvature and defining second holes, and a first adhesion layer between the window and the plate, and defining a first opening that overlaps the first folding part and some of the first holes.
