Abstract
A rollable display device includes a display panel for displaying an image, a printed circuit board connected to an edge of the display panel, and a roller which the display panel is rolled onto or unrolled from. The roller has a cylindrical shape having an inner space, and the printed circuit board is disposed in the inner space.
Claims18
A display device comprising:
- a flexible display panel;
- a roller on which the flexible display panel is selectively wound and unwound;
- a printed circuit board connected to the flexible display panel, the printed circuit board being located within the roller;
- and
- a pin connecting the printed circuit board to the roller,
- wherein the pin has a first end located in a through hole provided in the roller,
- wherein the pin extends through a pin hole provided in the printed circuit board, and
- wherein the pin has a second end located in a pin receiving portion provided in the roller.
