An electronic device includes a display panel including non-folding areas and a folding area disposed between the non-folding areas, a lower protective film disposed below the display panel, an external light reflective member disposed below the lower protective film, a lower member disposed below the external light reflective member, and cushion members disposed below the lower member. The display panel is foldable along a folding axis. The cushion members are spaced apart from each other and define a cushion hole in the folding area.

Electronic device

An electronic device includes a display panel including a folding area and a non-folding area which is adjacent to the folding area along a first direction, and a support member facing the display panel. The support member includes in order from the display panel, an upper plate which faces the folding area and the non-folding area, has a thickness and in which are defined a plurality of openings corresponding to the folding area, and a lower plate having a thickness which is greater than the thickness of the upper plate and including a first lower plate and a second lower plate each corresponding to the folding area and the non-folding area. At the folding area, the second lower plate is spaced apart from the first lower plate by a gap along the first direction.

A display device includes a display panel including a front surface and a rear surface, a first circuit board electrically connected to a first side of the display panel, a second circuit board electrically connected to a second side opposite to the first side of the display panel, a third circuit board disposed on the rear surface and electrically connected to the first circuit board and the second circuit board, the third circuit board extending in a first direction, and a support plate disposed on the rear surface. The display panel is foldable along a folding line extending in a second direction. The support plate has a first opening extending along the folding line, and an opening pattern near a portion of the first opening. The third circuit board overlaps the portion of the first opening. The opening pattern includes slits and the third circuit board overlaps the slits.

Display device

A display device includes a first non-folding area, a second non-folding area, and a folding area, which are disposed in a first direction includes a display panel including first to third pixel areas, which are spaced apart from each other on a plane defined in the first direction and a second direction crossing the first direction and a window layer disposed on the display panel. The window layer includes a first rigid part, a second rigid part, and a first soft part, a first interface and a second interface overlaps at least one area of first to third pixel areas on the plane, and an absolute value of a difference in refractive index between the first rigid part and the first soft part is 0.02 or less, and an absolute value of a difference in refractive index between the second rigid part and the first soft part is 0.02 or less.

A display device according to an embodiment includes a digitizer, a display module disposed on the digitizer, and a support plate disposed between the digitizer and the display module, the support plate including an amorphous nickel alloy, and a range of about 50 wt % to about 95 wt % of nickel is included in the amorphous nickel alloy based on a total weight of the amorphous nickel alloy. The support plate has a non-magnetic property and a flexible property.

A liquid crystal display device having an improved electrostatic discharge structure includes: a liquid crystal panel on which an image is formed; a light emitting diode (LED) unit for irradiating a backlight to the liquid crystal panel; a chassis in which the liquid crystal panel and the LED unit are installed; a LED circuit board including a LED chip that is installed to electrically contact the chassis and to control the LED unit; and a main circuit board connected to the liquid crystal panel and the LED circuit board. A grounding line is connected to the main circuit board and is formed on the LED circuit board. Accordingly, the static electricity that has flowed from the outside through the chassismay be immediately discharged through the grounding line, and electronic components in the liquid crystal display device may be protected from the static electricity.
