Problems solved by technology

[0006] However, in this prior art reference, since the flexible display panel is repeatedly folded and unfolded based on the hinge unit, stress is generated, whereby cracking occurs due to the stress in the bending region of the flexible display panel.
As a result, there arises a problem that the reliability of the flexible display panel decreases
That is, in the prior art references, since one side region and the other side region of the flexible display panel are completely folded to adjoin each other based on the bending region, cracks are likely to be generated in the bending region of the flexible display panel

Abstract

A foldable display apparatus that may realize one seamless screen by using two display panels is discussed. The foldable display apparatus can include a first display panel having a first display area; a second display panel having a second display area; and a panel supporter supporting the first and second display panels to mutually fold or unfold the first and second display panels, wherein boundary portions of the first display area of the first display panel and the second display area of the second display panel are matched with each other in a state that the first and second display panels are unfolded.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a foldable display device, and more particularly, to a foldable display device capable of minimizing stress applied to a bending region of a display panel. Background technique [0002] In general, display devices based on flat display panels such as liquid crystal displays (“LCDs”), field emission displays (“FEDs”), organic light-emitting displays, electrophoretic displays, or electrowetting displays are mainly used in notebook computers, portable electronic devices , television (TV) or monitor. [0003] In recent years, as the demand for large screens in portable electronic devices has increased, devices for realizing large display screens by connecting flat display panels together have been developed and put on the market. In particular, a foldable display device based on the advantages of a bendable or foldable flexible display panel has attracted more attention as a next-generation technology in the display field ...
