A rollable display device includes: a rollable display including a first end and a second end spaced apart from the first end; a first slider including a roller that supports the first end of the rollable display, the first slider being configured to roll the rollable display about the roller; and a second slider including a support that supports the second end of the rollable display while bending the second end of the rollable display, the second slider being slideable relative to the first slider.

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.

An electronic device and a method of manufacturing the electronic device are provided. The electronic device includes: a flexible display; and a cover window disposed on the flexible display, wherein the cover window includes a glass member and a buffer member disposed between the glass member and the flexible display, wherein the glass member includes at least one flat area and a bending area extending from the at least one flat area, and wherein a thickness of at least a portion of the bending area continuously decreases from a thickness of the at least one flat area as the bending area extends from the at least one flat area, and a width of the at least the portion of the bending area continuously decreases from a width of the at least one flat area as the bending area extends from the at least one flat area.

This electronic device may comprise: a flexible display; a first rolling actuator configured to extend the flexible display in a first direction; a second rolling actuator configured to extend the flexible display in a second direction opposite to the first direction; and at least one processor. The at least one processor may be configured to: determine the mounting state of the electronic device; acquire information about the position of a peripheral device, which is linked with the electronic device, based on the mounting state satisfying a designated condition; set the extension direction of the flexible display on the basis of the information about the position of the peripheral device; and control the first rolling actuator and/or the second rolling actuator to extend the flexible display in the first direction and/or the second direction on the basis of the set extension direction.

An example electronic device may include a display including a main display area and at least one expansion display area expandable from the main display area; and a processor operatively coupled to the display. The processor is configured to, while the electronic device is in a slide-in state, display, on the main display area, a first screen corresponding to an application executed in the slide-in state; based on a portion of the expansion display area being slid out, generate a second screen to be displayed on the main display area and a portion of the slid-out expansion display area; generate a slide effect screen and display the same on at least a portion of the slid-out expansion display area, at least at the same time as the generation of the second screen; and based on the generation of the second screen being completed, remove the display of the slide effect screen and display the second screen on the main display area and the slid-out expansion display area.

An expandable touch screen display device made up of a flexible display that can be reconfigured from a compact state to a plurality of expanded states. The form factor of the compact state is roughly the size of a typical handheld phone or smaller. The form factor of each of the expanded states is roughly the size of a tablet computer. An internal mechanism is provided for synching the motion of the device’s expansion with the motion of the flexible display’s end plate which provides a force to guide the display around the roller located at the edge of the device. The device may further include an integrated speaker and microphone, and sensors to indicate the expanded position of the display. In one embodiment, a module attached to, situated within, or otherwise associated with the device may contain all or substantially all processing and memory, along with a communications system.

A mobile terminal comprises a body including a first frame and a second frame slidably coupled to a rear surface of the first frame in a first direction or a second direction; a flexible display unit including a front portion located on a front surface of the body, a rear portion located on a rear surface of the body, and a side portion connecting the front portion with the rear portion and surrounding one side of the body; a plurality of reinforcing ribs protruded from a rear surface of the first frame and extended in the first direction; and a plurality of supports protruded from a front surface of the second frame and located between the respective reinforcing ribs. The mobile terminal may enhance usability and portability by varying its size.

A mobile terminal comprises: a body frame that is expandable in a first direction and shrinkable in a second direction; a flexible display in which the area of a display unit positioned on the front surface of the body frame is expanded according to the expansion of the body frame; a driving unit that changes the size of the body; a sensing unit that senses a user command; and a control unit that controls the driving unit to expand or shrink the body frame on the basis of the user command sensed by the sensing unit. Thus, a screen of the display unit positioned on the front surface can be expanded through size adjustment. Because a part of the screen always faces the outside, a separate secondary display unit is not required, and the screen may be expanded step by step as needed.

According to various embodiments of the disclosure, an electronic device may include: a housing, a flexible display, and a roller unit. The flexible display may include a first portion, a second portion extending from the first portion in a first direction, and a third portion extending from the second portion. The second portion may be drawn into the inside of a first housing by sliding of a second housing in the first direction when the electronic device is converted from a second state to a first state, and may be drawn out from the inside of the first housing by sliding of the second housing in a second direction opposite to the first direction when the electronic device is converted from the first state to the second state. The third portion may be fixed to a flat region of the third section in the first state.

An electronic device is provided that includes a first housing, a second housing coupled to the first housing in a movable manner, a flexible display disposed on the first housing and the second housing and having a structure that is changeable with a movement of the second housing, a camera module in which an optical magnification can be set, and a processor. The camera module includes a first camera holder connected to the first housing and including a first lens module disposed along a first optical axis, and a second camera holder connected to the second housing and including at least a second lens module disposed along the first optical axis. The second camera holder is movable along the first optical axis with respect to the first camera holder with the movement of the second housing.
