  • Patent number: 12063754
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a flexible display device, comprising: a first body; a second body configured to be movable relative to the first body; a support plate installed on the rear surface of the second body and configured to be movable relative to the second body; a flexible display unit configured such that areas exposed to the outside are changed while the first body and the second body move relative to each other; and a driving unit generating a driving force such that the second body slides with respect to the first body, wherein as the driving unit causes a movement of the second body through a rotational force by means of a motor, the areas exposed to the outside of the front part and the rear part of the flexible display unit can be changed respectively.

  • Patent number: 10742784
    Abstract: A roll-slide mobile terminal including a first frame; a second frame configured to slide with respect to the first frame in a first direction; a first roller provided in one first-direction end of the second frame; a third frame provided in a rear surface of the second frame; a flexible display unit having one end fixed to the first frame and the other end coupled to the third frame and being bent towards a rear surface when rolled around the first roller; and a drive unit configured to guide a sliding movement of the first frame with respect to the second frame in the first direction to transition the roll-slide mobile terminal from a first state in which the flexible display unit is bent towards the rear surface to a second state in which the flexible display unit is extended in the first direction, and to guide a sliding movement of the first frame with respect to the second frame in a second direction opposite the first direction to transition the roll-slide mobile terminal from the second state to the fi
