FLEXIBLE DISPLAY DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240221543 titled 'FLEXIBLE DISPLAY DEVICE
Simplified Explanation:
This patent application describes a flexible display device that can bend about a bending axis and maintain its bent state without the need for a separate mount.
Key Features and Innovation:
- Display panel with at least one bending area
- Frame supporting the rear surface of the display panel
- Guide parts fixed to the frame's rear surface
- Fixing parts movably provided on the frame's rear surface
- Variable length controller depending on the state of bending
- Controller connected to fixing parts to control movements
- Fixing parts prevent the display panel from being unbent when coupled to guide parts
Potential Applications:
This technology could be used in flexible electronic devices such as smartphones, tablets, and wearable technology.
Problems Solved:
This technology addresses the challenge of maintaining the bent state of a flexible display without the need for additional mounting hardware.
Benefits:
