A display device includes a display panel including a first non-folding area, a second non-folding area, and a folding area, a first upper plate disposed under the display panel and overlapping the first non-folding area, a second upper plate disposed under the display panel, overlapping the second non-folding area, arranged to be spaced apart from the first upper plate, a separation space being disposed therebetween and overlapping at least a portion of the folding area in an unfolded state, and a screen layer disposed under the first upper plate and the second upper plate. The screen layer includes first lines, second lines arranged in a weave pattern with the first lines, and a lower coating layer covering a lower portion of the first lines and the second lines and overlaps the separation space.

A portable information handling system modular hybrid architecture separates components between rotationally coupled housing portions to minimize cabling, connectors and materials, and to provide improved durability that supports recycling and reuse of the components. For example, a plurality of housing cover configurations couple to housing portions of different dimensions with opposing couples and a common keystone element that, when installed, prevents separation of the opposing couplers. Removal of the keystone element provides ready access to the housing portion interior to recycle processing components, such as a secondary board having an embedded controller and charger and a battery interfaced with the secondary board.

A portable information device capable of supporting a display is described. The portable information device includes a first chassis member and a second chassis member connected mutually rotatable, a first support plate that supports a display on the side of the first chassis member, a second support plate that supports the display on the side of the second chassis member, a first locking member including a first fixing portion to be fixed to the rear face of the first support plate with adhesive, and a first locking piece projecting from one end face of the first support plate, the first locking piece being configured to come in contact with and separate from the rear face of the second support plate. The first support plate includes a first contact face with which the first locking member comes in contact and a first adhesive face that fixes the first locking member with the adhesive. The first adhesive face is recessed from the first contact face by a thickness of the adhesive.

An electronic device is provided, including at least one body, at least one functional assembly, and at least one elastic positioning assembly. The functional assembly is slidably disposed on the body along a sliding direction. The elastic positioning assembly is disposed on the body and adapted to prop the functional assembly along a direction perpendicular to the sliding direction, so that a gap is formed between the functional assembly and the body. When the functional assembly slides to a predetermined position with respect to the body, the elastic positioning assembly provides a positioning force to the functional assembly along a direction parallel to the sliding direction.

A display device including a display module including a first non-folding area, a second non-folding area, and a folding area disposed between the first and second non-folding areas, a first support part disposed below the first non-folding area, a second support part disposed below the second non-folding area, a hinge part disposed below the folding area, a sheet part disposed between the folding area and the hinge part, and a support plate disposed between the sheet part and the hinge part, the support plate having a plurality of openings overlapping a portion of the hinge part in a plan view.

A portable information device includes: a first chassis, a second chassis adjacent to the first chassis, and a hinge device that relatively rotatably connects the first chassis and the second chassis. The hinge device includes: a first torque generating part that generates a rotation torque in relative rotation of a first base plate and a first link plate by sliding resistance between the first base plate and the first link plate, and a second torque generating part that generates a rotation torque in relative rotation of a second base plate and a second link plate by sliding resistance between the second base plate and the second link plate.

A foldable display device includes a display panel including first and second display areas and a folding part between the first and second display areas; first and second system units disposed under the display panel and corresponding to the first and second display areas, respectively, an elastic plate between the display panel and the first and second system units; and a hinge system corresponding to the folding part and disposed on rear surfaces of the first and second system units, the hinge system including a first hinge portion on the rear surface of the first system unit and a second hinge portion on the rear surface of the second system unit, wherein the first and second hinge portions are rotatably hinge-combined with each other.

In example implementations, an electronic device housing is provided. The electronic device housing includes a display housing, a lifting mechanism, abase housing, and a secondary display. The lifting mechanism is coupled to a side of the display housing. The base housing is coupled to the display housing. The secondary display is coupled to a distal side of the base housing. The lifting mechanism is to lift the secondary display on a rotation of the display housing.

A mobile terminal according to an embodiment includes a display panel having flexibility, and a support plate configured to support the display panel and to include a curved edge, at least a part of which is surrounded by the display panel. The display panel includes a base substrate, a light-emitting layer provided on the base substrate and configured to include a light-emitting element, a thin-film encapsulation layer configured to seal the light-emitting element, and a thin-film transistor (TFT) film configured to supply a signal to the light-emitting element, a polarizing film provided on the light-emitting layer, and a protective film provided on the polarizing film. The TFT film is extended from the base substrate at the curved edge to cover an edge of the base substrate.

A secondary display may be integrated into a form factor of an information handling system having a primary display in a manner that synchronizes movement of the secondary display with the primary display. The secondary display may move from a closed position to an open position along with moving of a primary display from a closed to an open position. A rack and pinion mechanism may synchronize the secondary display with the primary display through a first and second primary pinion coupling a primary shaft of the primary display to a rack. A secondary pinion may couple a secondary shaft of the secondary display to the rack. Movement of the secondary display may be synchronized with movement of the primary display through the rack and pinions.
