Abstract
A display device for a vehicle includes a first frame, a second frame configured to be move along a first direction with respect to the first frame, a roller rotatably coupled to the second frame and configured to move along the first direction based on movement of the second frame, and a flexible display that is at least partially wound around the roller and that is configured to be bent around the roller. The flexible display has an end portion fixed to the first frame. A front surface of the flexible display defines an externally exposed area that is configured to increase based on an increase of a distance between the first frame and the roller.
Claims13
A display device for a vehicle, comprising:
- a first frame;
- a second frame configured to be move along a first direction with respect to the first frame;
- a roller rotatably coupled to the second frame and configured to move along the first direction based on movement of the second frame;
- a flexible display that is at least partially wound around the roller and that is configured to be bent around the roller, the flexible display having an end portion fixed to the first frame;
- a moving assembly configured to move the roller in the first direction;
- and
- an actuator configured to provide driving force to the moving assembly,
- wherein a front surface of the flexible display defines an externally exposed area that is configured to increase based on an increase of a distance between the first frame and the roller,
- wherein the moving assembly comprises:
- a moving plate that is coupled to the second frame and that is configured to move along the first direction based on the roller moving in the first direction, and
- a chain that is coupled to the first frame, that is configured to be bent around the roller, and that is configured to support at least a portion of a rear surface of the flexible display,
- wherein the actuator comprises:
- a first bracket coupled to the first frame,
- a second bracket that is coupled to the first bracket and that extends in the first direction, and
- a third bracket coupled to the moving plate and configured to move along the first direction with respect to the second bracket, and
- wherein the second bracket comprises a plurality of coils that are arranged along the first direction, that are spaced apart from one another by a predetermined interval in the first direction, and that are configured to receive power to move the third bracket.
