Provided is a mobile terminal switchable from a first state to a second state extended in a first direction, the mobile terminal comprising: a first frame; a second frame slidable in the first direction with respect to the first frame; a roller coupled to the end of the second frame in the first direction; a flexible display including a fixing part coupled to the first frame and a variable part extends from the fixing part and surrounding the roller, and is positioned on the front surface according to the sliding movement of the second frame; and a rolling hinge positioned on the rear surface of the variable part and changing correspondingly to the shape of the variable part, wherein the roller includes a sawtooth part formed on the outer surface thereof, and the rolling hinge includes a concave-convex part corresponding to the sawtooth part.

Mobile terminal

A mobile terminal according to an embodiment may comprise: a first frame; a second frame which comprises a third rear part provided on the rear surface of the first frame and movable in a first direction and a first roller provided at the end of the third rear part in the first direction; a flexible display panel which is provided to surround the first roller; a driving part for driving the second frame in the first direction or a second direction opposite to the first direction from the first frame; and a side cover which comprises a first plate extending in the second direction from both sides of the first roller and a second plate moving forward and backward on the first plate.

A mobile terminal includes a first frame, a second frame slidably-movable in a first direction or in a second direction opposite to the first direction from the first frame, a slide frame movable in the first direction or in the second direction with respect to the second frame, a flexible display unit including a first region coupled to the first frame, a second region coupled to the slide frame, and a third region positioned between the first region and the second region and bent while surrounding the second frame, a driving unit disposed to be positionally biased in a third direction perpendicular to the first direction, wherein the driving unit provides a force to the second frame to move, and a linear guide positioned between the first frame and the second frame and guiding the movement of the second frame in the first direction or in the second direction. The mobile terminal may improve durability of the flexible display unit by not restricting a point where the flexible display unit is bent to a specific position.

The present disclosure relates to a flexible display device including a first body; a second body configured to be relatively movable with respect to the first body; a flexible display disposed on a front surface of the first body and a rear surface of the second body, respectively, and configured to vary in size of areas that are exposed to the front surface of the first body and to the rear surface of the second body as the first body and the second body are relatively moved; and a rotating bending bar disposed in at least one of the first body and the second body, and rotated while the first body and the second body are moved to couple the first body and the second body.

Flexible display device

A mobile terminal able to be switched from a first state to a second state by expanding in a first direction includes a first frame, a second frame movable in a sliding manner from the first frame, a slide frame movable in the first direction or in the second direction with respect to the second frame, a roller coupled to one side of the second frame in a manner of being rotatable in a third direction perpendicular to the first direction, a flexible display unit including a third region bent while surrounding the second frame, and a rolling plate having one surface, wherein the flexible display unit is attached to said one surface of the rolling plate, wherein the roller contains a high friction material.

Disclosed is a mobile terminal including a first frame, a second frame sliding from the first frame in a first direction or in a second direction, a slide frame movable in the first direction or in the second direction with respect to the second frame, a flexible display unit including a third region bent while surrounding the second frame, and a rolling plate having one surface, wherein the flexible display unit is attached to said one surface of the rolling plate, wherein the rolling plate includes a plurality of support bars extending in a third direction perpendicular to the first direction and arranged side by side in the first direction, and each connector positioned between adjacent two of the plurality of support bars and having a thickness less than a thickness of the support bar, wherein the support bar and the connector are manufactured integrally of the same material.

Disclosed herein is a mobile terminal including a first frame, a second frame slidably movable with respect to the first frame in a first direction or a second direction opposite to the first direction, a slide frame movable with respect to the second frame in the first direction or the second direction, a flexible display comprising a first region coupled to the first frame, a second region coupled to the slide frame, and a third region disposed between the first region and the second region, the third region being bent in a manner of surrounding the second frame, a guide rail extending on a rear portion of the second frame in the first direction, and a guide rivet protruding from a front surface of the slide frame and inserted into the guide rail.

Disclosed herein is a mobile terminal including a first frame, a second frame slideably movable from the first frame in a first direction or a second direction opposite to the first direction, a slide frame movable in the first or second direction with respect to the second frame, a magnetic roller rotatably coupled to one side of the second frame, a flexible display including a first region coupled to the first frame, a second region coupled to the slide frame, and a third region disposed between the first and second regions and bent around the magnetic roller, and a rolling plate attached to the flexible display. The magnetic roller provides magnetic force to cause the rolling plate to be attached to the magnetic roller. The mobile terminal may maintain the display in a flat state during movement of the second frame by preventing the display from being separated.

An X-ray detector and an X-ray image system using the same are disclosed. The X-ray image system comprises an X-ray generator irradiating X-rays to an object to be photographed; an X-ray detector including a first photoelectric converter receiving X-rays transmitted the object and converting the X-rays in to a first electric signal and a second photoelectric converter converting the X-rays in to a second electric signal; a first image processor processing a first image of the object on the basis of the first electric signal of the X-ray detector; a second image processor processing a second image of the object on the basis of the second electric signal of the X-ray detector; a display module displaying the first and second processed images of the object; and a controller controlling the X-ray generator, the X-ray detector, the first and second image processors and the display module.
