Each rotating assembly has a synchronous rotation bar, a friction plate and a torsion plate. The friction plate has a first major plate body and a friction increasing portion inclined outwardly from the major plate body. The rotating assemblies are turnable relative to the base bar between unfolded and folded positions. During the turning, the friction increasing portion is gradually overlapped upon and in frictional contact with the torsion plate so as to increase a friction force for providing a stable turning.

Abstract: A bendable displaying apparatus of the present disclosure includes two housings, a supporting device, and a bendable display. The supporting device is fastened to the two housings and is arranged between the two housings. The supporting device includes a retainer, two supporting units, a first supporting plate, and two second supporting plates. The bendable display is disposed on the two housings, the first supporting plate, and the two second supporting plates. When the two housings are moved to stack with each other, the two housings drive the two supporting units to move the two second supporting plates along a direction away from each other and drives the retainer to downwardly move the first supporting plate, so that the two second supporting plates and the first supporting plate jointly form a space that provides the bendable display to deform therein.
