Abstract
A flexible display module and a flexible display device are disclosed in the present disclosure. A housing of the flexible display module defines a sliding groove, a support component is configured to attached to the flexible display panel, a protrusion is provided on the support component, and the protrusion is located in the sliding groove. Based on the cooperation of the protrusion and the sliding groove, a gap is maintained between the flexible display panel and the cover plate during a sliding process, so as to alleviate technical problems of abrasion and unsmooth sliding of a flexible screen in an existing flexible display device.
Claims20
A flexible display module, comprising:
- a housing, including side walls and a housing bottom, wherein the housing bottom is formed with an opening in a display area, the side walls and the housing bottom form an accommodating cavity, and a sliding groove is defined by the side walls;
- a cover plate, matching the opening of the housing bottom;
- rolling components, disposed in the accommodating cavity, and fixedly connected to two opposite ones of the side walls;
- a flexible display panel, including a first bending area, a second bending area, and the display area, wherein the first bending area and the second bending area are arranged around the rolling components, so that the flexible display panel slides in the accommodating cavity, and a gap is formed between the flexible display panel and the cover plate to provide the flexible display panel sliding relative to the cover plate;
- and
- a support component, configured to be attached to the flexible display panel, wherein at least one area of the support component is provided with a protrusion along a width direction of the flexible display panel, and the protrusion is located in the sliding groove for maintaining a gap between the flexible display panel and the cover plate during a sliding process.
