Abstract
A display device includes a housing having a display window, a flexible screen assembled in the housing and including a display area and a light-transmissive area, and an optical component disposed in the housing. The display device provides the optical component under the flexible screen and enables the flexible screen to be slidable with respect to the display window, so that the display device switches between a first state and a second state, which only protects the optical component, but also enables a full-screen display in the first state (a non-camera state).
Claims18
A display device, comprising:
- a housing comprising a display window;
- a flexible screen assembled in the housing and comprising a display area and a light-transmissive area defined on one end of the display area;
- and
- an optical component disposed in the housing and located on a side of the flexible screen facing away the display window;
- wherein the flexible screen is slidable with respect to the display window to enable switching of the display device between a first state and a second state;
- wherein the display area of the flexible screen is directly facing the display window, and the light-transmissive area is located outside the display window in the first state;
- and
- wherein the light-transmissive area of the flexible screen is located in the display window and directly facing the optical component in the second state;
- wherein the display device further comprises a first roller and a second roller disposed in the housing and located at two ends of the display device, wherein two ends of the flexible screen are attached around the first roller and the second roller, respectively, so that the flexible screen slides around and against the first roller and the second roller;
- wherein the flexible screen further comprises a first end and a second end, the first end of the flexible screen is attached around the first roller to be connected to the housing through a first connecting member, and the second end of the flexible screen is attached around the second roller to be connected to the housing through a second connecting member.
