Publication number: 20240080383Abstract: Disclosed is a mobile terminal including: a first frame; a second frame slidable in the first direction with respect to the first frame; a flexible display unit that is bent to surround a portion of the mobile terminal, wherein the flexible display unit includes a front surface whose area size is variable based on the slide movement of the second frame and a rear surface; a slide frame slidable on a rear surface of the second frame in the first direction or a second direction, wherein an end of the rear surface of the display unit is coupled to a rear surface of the slide frame; and a stopper that restricts a movement range of the slide frame in the first direction. The mobile terminal provides a flat screen even in an extended state by minimizing a lift phenomenon of a variable portion of the display unit.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 25, 2021Publication date: March 7, 2024Applicant: LG ELECTRONICS INC.Inventors: Insu SONG, Hyeonung JO, Jaewook LEE, Hyoyeol LEE
