Display apparatus having frame assembly to bend display panel and method of controlling the same
A display apparatus is disclosed that includes a display panel and a controller. The display panel includes a first edge extending in a first direction, a second edge extending in a second direction that intersects the first direction, and a display area where an image is displayed. The controller is configured to obtain information to bend the display panel and, in response, to bend the display panel to a bent display panel. In the bent display panel, the first edge has a first display-panel curvature and the second edge has a second display-panel curvature.
SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE FOR ATTACHING TO A FLEXIBLE DISPLAY
A semiconductor device includes a substrate, conductive features on the substrate, and a passivation layer over the conductive features to define conductive pads in the respective conductive features through exposed portions of each of the conductive features. Each corner of the conductive pads is free of right angle, the substrate has a pair of long sides from a top view perspective, the shape of each of the conductive pads is a parallelogram. Each of the conductive pads has a pair of long sides and a pair of short sides from a top view perspective, a portion of the conductive pads have the long sides sloped away from a first pad density area of the substrate and toward one long side of the substrate, and the rest of the conductive pads have the long sides sloped toward the first pad density area and toward the other long side of the substrate.
Electronic Devices With Flexible Display Cover Layers
An electronic device may have a hinge that allows the device to be flexed about a bend axis. A display may span the bend axis. To facilitate bending about the bend axis without damage, the display may include a display cover layer with a flexible portion. The flexible portion of the display cover layer may be interposed between first and second rigid portions of the display cover layer. The display cover layer may also include a layer with self-healing properties. The layer of self-healing material may be formed across the entire display cover layer or may be formed only in the flexible region of the display cover layer. The display cover layer may include a layer of elastomer in the flexible region of the display cover layer for increased flexibility. Self-healing may be initiated or expedited by externally applied heat, light, electric current, or other type of external stimulus.
ELECTRONIC DEVICE
Provided is an electronic device with high portability, a highly browsable electronic device, or an electronic device having a novel light source that can be used in shooting photographs and video. The electronic device includes a camera and a flexible display portion. The display portion has a first region and a second region. The first region has a function of emitting light to a photographic subject. The second region has a function of displaying an image of the photographic subject shot by the camera. The display portion can be bent so that the first region and the second region face in different directions.
MOTION MECHANISM APPLIED TO INWARD-FOLDING FLEXIBLE SCREEN TERMINAL
The present invention provides a motion mechanism applied to an inward-folding flexible screen terminal, comprising an intermediate support structure, left and right support structures, and left and right movable support plates. The intermediate support structure is provided with a synchronous reverse rotation connecting mechanism. The left and right movable support plates are rotatably connected to the left and right support structures at the intermediate support structure, respectively. Rotation of the left and right movable support plates can be directly planned according to the relationship between gears and racks, and the gear indexing circle diameter can be increased in finite space by using virtual center design, so that the racks are driven to generate a larger sliding distance by rotating a small angle, i.e., sliding a chassis to increase the accommodating space of the screen closed state. Moreover, the effect of accurately controlling sliding is also achieved, and designing a certain transmission ratio by means of the principle of gear and rack transmission to realize the design of the rotation angle can produce the required sliding amount.
