Abstract
A back plate arranged at a back surface of a flexible display of a flexible display terminal is provided. The back plate may include a substrate with divided regions having similar displacements, so that when the flexible display is deformed, a plurality of divided plates are formed. A connected part formed of a flexible material may connect the divided plates with each other, and may be deformable in response deformation of the flexible display.
Claims22

- a plurality of connection parts formed of a flexible material and configured to respectively connect adjacent divided plates with each other.
A flexible display terminal, comprising:
- a flexible display deformable by an external force;
- and
- a back plate arranged at a back surface of the flexible display, wherein the back plate comprises:
- a substrate including a plurality of regions forming a plurality of divided plates that are configured to be displaced in response to deformation of the flexible display;
- and
- a connection part formed of a flexible material, the connection part configured to connect adjacent divided plates of the plurality of divided plates with each other.
A back plate for a flexible display of a flexible display terminal, the back plate comprising:
- a substrate;
- a plurality of separation lines formed in the substrate;
