This application is a National Phase of PCT Patent Application No. PCT/CN2019/120151 having International filing date of Nov. 22, 2019, which claims the benefit of priority of Chinese Patent Application No. 201911013732.3 filed on Oct. 23, 2019. The contents of the above applications are all incorporated by reference as if fully set forth herein in their entirety.
The present application relates to the technical field of display panels, and in particular, to a flexible display device.
At present, flexible display devices have been more and more popular in the market due to their advantages of good resistance to bending, which can realize arbitrary switching between a large screen and a small screen by unfolding or folding and rolling up the flexible screen.
In order to more clearly illustrate the embodiments or the technical solutions of the existing art, the drawings illustrating the embodiments or the existing art will be briefly described below. Obviously, the drawings in the following description merely illustrate some embodiments of the present invention. Other drawings may also be obtained by those skilled in the art according to these figures without paying creative work.
FIG. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a first flexible display device according to an embodiment of the present invention.
FIG. 2A is a schematic structural diagram of a first flexible display device in a first state according to an embodiment of the present invention.
The following description of the various embodiments is provided to illustrate the specific embodiments of the present invention. The spatially relative directional terms mentioned in the present invention, such as “upper”, “lower”, “before”, “after”, “left”, “right”, “inside”, “outside”, “side”, etc. and the like, may be used herein for ease of description to describe one element or feature's relationship to another element(s) or feature(s) as illustrated in the figures which are merely references. The spatially relative terms are intended to encompass different orientations in addition to the orientation as depicted in the figures.
The present invention is directed to solve the technical problem of depression feeling for a user when performing a touch operation on the existing flexible display device, caused by no back support or weak back support of a flexible screen when it is unfolded.
As shown in FIG. 1, an embodiment of the present invention provides a first flexible display device. which includes a case 1, a rewinding component 2, a flexible display component 3, a rotating component 4, and a cover plate 5, wherein the case is provided with a storage chamber 11 inside the case 1, the rewinding component 2 is located in the storage chamber 11, a portion of the flexible display component 3 is disposed at one side of the case 1, another portion of the flexible display component 3 extends into the storage chamber 11 and is connected to the rewinding component 2. Because the rewinding component 2 has an automatic rewinding function, the portion of the flexible display component 3 extending into the storage chamber 11 can be rolled up onto the rewinding component 2. Meanwhile, the portion of the flexible display component 3 wound on the rewinding component 2 can be pulled out from the storage chamber 11 under an effect of external force, and when the flexible display component 3 is pulled out from the storage chamber 11, the rewinding component 2 provides an elastic pulling force for rolling up the flexible display component 3. The rotating component 4 is connected to an end of the flexible display component 3 extending from the storage chamber 11, to apply an external force (such as a pulling force) to the rotating component 4, so as to drive movement of the flexible display component 3. The cover plate 5 is connected to the end of the flexible display component 3 extending from the storage chamber 11 through the rotating component 4, so that the cover plate 5 can be flipped around the rotating component 4.
