Abstract
A curved display device includes a display panel including a terminal part configured to receive a driving signal, a driving circuit film including a base film and a driving chip on the base film, and a spacer disposed between the base film and the display panel. The driving chip is configured to generate the driving signal, the driving circuit film is configured to apply the driving signal to the display panel, and the driving circuit film is coupled to the terminal part and bent toward a lower surface of the display panel. The display panel and a surface of the spacer are curved along a first direction.
Claims22
A curved display device comprising:
- a display panel curved along a first direction, the display panel comprising a terminal part configured to receive a driving signal;
- a driving circuit film comprising a base film and a driving chip centered on the base film, the driving chip being configured to generate the driving signal, the driving circuit film being configured to apply the driving signal to the display panel, and the driving circuit film being coupled to the terminal part and bent toward a lower surface of the display panel;
- and
- a spacer disposed between the base film and the display panel,
- wherein a first surface of the spacer contacting a lower surface of the display panel is curved by the display panel along the first direction, a second surface of the spacer is nonparallel with the first surface in the first direction, and the second surface is opposite the first surface, and
- wherein a height of the first surface of the spacer from the base film is greater than a height of a surface of the driving chip facing the lower surface of the display panel from the base film.
