a linear guide configured to guide the rotary gear:
a rotation link connected to the rotary gear and the display module; and
an elastic member connected to the rotation link and stretched in length.

### Claim 2

(canceled)

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The display device according to claim 1, wherein the linear guide comprises:
an upper linear guide above the rotary gear; and
a lower linear guide below the rotary gear,
wherein the upper linear guide and the lower linear guide are parallel to each other.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The display device according to claim 1, wherein the rotary gear comprises:
a left rotary gear; and
a right rotary gear disposed to be spaced apart from the left rotary gear in a left and right direction.

### Claim 5 (depends on 4)

The display device according to claim 4, wherein the rotation link comprises:
a left rotation link connected to the left rotary gear; and
