Embodiment Construction

[0018] One inventive principle of the present invention is to structurally configure a flexible display device with a non-continuous front sheet and a continuous back sheet that provides a secondary display as an extension of the primary display (eg the secondary display acts as a preview screen for the primary display). For purposes of the present invention, the term "non-continuous front panel" is broadly defined herein as: two (2) or more regions of a display front panel that are spatially separated in order to provide a viewing medium for the primary display and the secondary display any display front panel, and the term "continuous backplane" is broadly defined herein as: two (2) or more areas of a display backplane electrically any monitor backplane connected.

[0019] The present invention does not impose any limitations or constraints on the material composition and structural configuration of the discontinuous front sheet and continuous back sheet therein. In practic...

Abstract

A flexible display device (50, 51) employs a discontinuous frontplane (60, 64) and a continuous backplane (70, 74). The discontinuous frontplane (60, 64) includes a primary frontplane region (61), a secondary frontplane region (63), and a spatial frontplane region (62) spatially separating the primary frontplane region (61) and the secondary frontplane region (63). The continuous backplane (70, 74) includes a primary backplane region (71), a secondary backplane region (73), and an interconnection backplane region (72) electrically interconnecting the primary backplane region (71) and the secondary backplane region (73). The primary frontplane region (61) and the primary backplane region (71) constitute a primary display (61, 71). The secondary frontplane region (63) and the secondary backplane region (73) constitute a secondary display (63, 73). The interconnection backplane region (72) defines the secondary display (63, 73) as an extension of the primary display (61, 71).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention mainly relates to flexible displays. The present invention specifically relates to a flexible display device that integrates a main display and a secondary display. Background technique [0002] FIG. 1 illustrates a flexible display 20 developed by Polymer Vision. The flexible display 20 has an active matrix backplane 30 consisting of a substrate 31 and an active matrix 32 . The flexible display 20 also has an electrophoretic front plate 40 comprising an adhesive 41 , an electrophoretic layer 42 (for example from suppliers such as E Ink or SiPix), a common electrode 43 and a substrate 44 . [0003] One use of the flexible display 20 is in a roll-up display system, whereby the flexible display 20 is rolled up on a rod (i.e., an object configured with a circular, oval, rounded rectangle, rounded square, or any other curved cross-section) so that To store the flexible display 20, unroll it from the stick for easy manipulation of t...
