Abstract

A method of manufacturing the curved display device includes a process of manufacturing a cover glass assembly by attaching a transparent polymer film to the back surface of a thin film glass of a flat plate, a process of bending and inserting the cover glass assembly into a curved cavity of a mold and then molding an edge member so as to be integrated with an edge portion of the cover glass assembly to maintain the cover glass assembly in a bent state, and a process of attaching a flexible display panel to the back surface of the cover glass assembly in a curved state after molding the edge member. The curved display device includes a cover glass assembly, an edge member to maintain the cover glass assembly in a bent state, and a flexible display panel attached to the back surface of the cover glass assembly.
