Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This disclosure relates to an electronic device including a display. More specifically, this disclosure relates to an electronic device for reducing deformation of a backlight unit (BLU) of a display by suppressing deformation of a flexible printed circuit board (FPCB) or changing the magnitude or direction of stress on the FPCB. Background Technology
[0002] Advances in information and communication technologies and semiconductor technology have accelerated the spread and use of various electronic devices. Electronic devices are being developed to perform communication while being carried.
[0003] The term "electronic device" can refer to a device that performs a specific function according to its equipped programs, such as home appliances, electronic calendars, portable multimedia players, mobile communication terminals, tablet PCs, video / audio devices, desktop PCs or laptops, and navigation devices for automobiles. For example, an electronic device can output stored information as voice or images. With the increasing integration of electronic devices and the prevalence of high-speed, high-capacity wireless communication, electronic devices such as mobile communication terminals are being equipped with a variety of functions. For example, electronic devices have integrated functions including entertainment functions such as playing video games, multimedia functions such as playing music / videos, communication and security functions for mobile banking, and calendar or e-wallet functions. Such electronic devices are becoming compact enough for users to carry conveniently.
[0004] Due to recent demands for more compact and thinner high-integration and performance, as well as the application of state-of-the-art technologies related to antennas in portable electronic devices (e.g., smartphones), the space available for circuit boards inside electronic devices has shrunk. Consequently, smaller circuit boards are placed separately and spaced apart. Furthermore, the display driver integrated circuit (DDI) used to drive the display is placed separately from the circuit board. Therefore, flexible printed circuit boards (FPCBs) are used to connect the spaced-apart DDIs and the circuit board.
[0005] The above information is presented as background information only to aid in understanding this disclosure. No determination or assertion is made regarding whether any of the above content can be used as prior art in relation to this disclosure. Detailed Implementation
[0006] Technical issues
[0007] A display can be mounted on the front surface of an electronic device. A display driver IC (DDI), serving as the circuitry for driving the display, can be located inside the electronic device. When the printed circuit board (PCB) on which the DDI is mounted and the PCB on which the processor is mounted are separated and spaced apart, the DDI and the processor can be electrically connected via the FPCB. Due to the flexibility of the FPCB, the electrical connection between the DDI and the processor is possible even when the internal structure of the electronic device is somewhat complex. Stress may occur in the FPCB due to deformation (such as warping caused by the internal structure of the electronic device).
[0008] As stress develops within the FPCB, the FPCB may come into contact with other components of the electronic device located on adjacent FPCBs. When the FPCB comes into contact with other components of the electronic device, the FPCB can transfer forces to those components. For example, other components of the electronic device could be the backlight unit (BLU) of a display.
[0009] As the FPCB transfers force to the BLU, the BLU may undergo slight deformation. Due to this slight deformation within the BLU, the light generated by the BLU may refract instead of traveling as designed. Therefore, localized color variations may occur in the display.
[0010] The present disclosure addresses at least the aforementioned problems and / or disadvantages, and provides at least the advantages described below. Therefore, one aspect of the present disclosure provides an electronic device for reducing BLU deformation by suppressing deformation of the FPCB or changing the magnitude or direction of stress on the FPCB.
[0011] Other aspects will be set forth in part in the description which follows, and in part will be apparent from the description, or may be learned by practicing the embodiments presented.
[0012] Technical solution
[0013] According to one aspect of this disclosure, an electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes: a housing; a display disposed within the housing, wherein the display is disposed along a first direction such that the screen of the display is exposed outside the housing; a first PCB disposed within the housing; an FPCB disposed within the housing and including a first portion adjacent to the display, a third portion extending from the first portion, and a second portion extending from the third portion and electrically connected to the first PCB; a first guide member disposed within the housing; and a second guide member disposed within the housing. At least a portion of the third portion may be configured to pass between the first guide member and the second guide member. A second stress acting in a second direction opposite to the first direction may be generated in the at least a portion of the third portion by the first guide member.
[0014] According to another aspect of this disclosure, an electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes: a housing; a display disposed within the housing, wherein the display is disposed along a first direction such that the screen of the display is exposed to the outside of the housing; a first PCB disposed within the housing; an FPCB disposed within the housing and including a first portion adjacent to the display, a third portion extending from the first portion, and a second portion extending from the third portion and electrically connected to the first PCB; and a first guide member disposed within the housing. At least a portion of the third portion is contactable with the first guide member. A second stress acting in a second direction opposite to the first direction can be generated in the at least a portion of the third portion by the first guide member.
[0015] Beneficial effects
[0016] According to various embodiments of this disclosure, in an electronic device, the force transmitted from the FPCB to the display can be reduced or released. Therefore, deformation may not occur or may be minimal in the display. When the deformation of the display is reduced or does not occur, the display can output the screen normally according to the electrical signals.

Communication module 190 may include one or more communication processors capable of operating independently of processor 120 (e.g., application processor (AP)) and support direct (e.g., wired) or wireless communication. According to embodiments of this disclosure, communication module 190 may include wireless communication module 192 (e.g., cellular communication module, short-range wireless communication module, or Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) communication module) or wired communication module 194 (e.g., local area network (LAN) communication module or power line communication (PLC) module). One of these communication modules can communicate with an external electronic device via a first network 198 (e.g., a short-range communication network such as Bluetooth, Wi-Fi Direct, or Infrared Data Association (IrDA)) or a second network 199 (e.g., a long-range communication network such as a traditional cellular network, 5G network, next-generation communication network, the Internet, or a computer network (e.g., a LAN or a wide area network (WAN))). These various types of communication modules can be implemented as a single component (e.g., a single chip) or as multiple components (e.g., multiple chips) that are separate from each other.

Therefore, no description of identical components is given.
[0099] According to various embodiments of this disclosure, electronic device 101 may include printed circuit board 340, battery 350, or flexible printed circuit board (FPCB) 400.
[0100] According to various embodiments of this disclosure, the printed circuit board 340 may include a first PCB 341 and / or a second PCB 342. In one embodiment of this disclosure, the first PCB 341 and the second PCB 342 may be disposed separately from each other. For example, the first PCB 341 may be adjacent to a first side disposed along the +X axis direction (e.g., Figure 4 The first side 310F) is provided, and the second PCB 342 may be adjacent to the second side arranged along the -X axis direction (e.g., Figure 4 The second side 310G) is set. As another example, the first PCB 341 may be adjacent to the camera module ( Figure 2 The second PCB 342 can be configured adjacent to audio modules 303 and 307.
[0101] According to various embodiments of this disclosure, FPCB 400 may be electrically connected to a display driver IC (DDI) (not shown) driving the display 330. As another example, FPCB 400 may be electrically connected to a first PCB 341. As another example, FPCB 400 may be electrically connected to a second PCB 342. For example, the DDI may be electrically connected to the first PCB 341 and / or the second PCB 342 via FPCB 400.
[0102] According to various embodiments of this disclosure, FPCB 400 may include a first FPCB 410 and / or a second FPCB 420. For example, the first FPCB 410 may electrically connect the DDI and the first PCB 341. For example, a processor disposed on the first PCB 341 may be electrically connected to the DDI via the first FPCB 410. The processor may transmit electrical signals to the DDI via the first FPCB 410, and the DDI may drive the display 330 according to the transmitted signals. As another example, the second FPCB 420 may electrically connect the DDI and the second PCB 342.
[0103] According to various embodiments of this disclosure, the first FPCB 410 may include a bent portion.
[0104] In embodiments of this disclosure, the first FPCB 410 can electrically connect two different components that are disposed separately from each other. According to embodiments of this disclosure, the first FPCB 410 can connect a first PCB 341 and a DDI that are disposed separately from each other. Another component may be disposed between the first PCB 341 and the DDI. For example, since the first FPCB 410 may include a bent portion, the first FPCB 410 may be configured to bypass another component disposed between the first PCB 341 and the DDI. According to embodiments of this disclosure, a battery 350 may be disposed between the first PCB 341 and the DDI. The component disposed between the first PCB 341 and the DDI is not limited to the battery 350, and another component may be disposed or additionally disposed. The first FPCB 410 may be configured to bypass the battery 350 disposed between the first PCB 341 and the DDI to electrically connect the first PCB 341 and the DDI. As the first FPCB 410 travels around another component disposed between the first PCB 341 and the DDI, the values of at least a portion of the first FPCB 410 on the X, Y, and / or Z axes can be changed. According to embodiments of this disclosure, when traveling between the first PCB 341 and the battery 350 along the -X axis, the first FPCB 410 can be bent along the -Z axis. As another example, when traveling between the battery 350 and the DDI along the -X axis, the first FPCB 410 can be bent along the +Z axis. Thus, as the first FPCB 410 is bent, it can electrically connect components with different Z-axis values.
[0105] According to various embodiments of this disclosure, the second FPCB 420 may include a bent portion. Therefore, the second FPCB 420 can electrically connect two different components that are not disposed on the same plane. For example, the Z-axis values of the second PCB 342 and the DDI may be different. When traveling between the second PCB 342 and the DDI along the -X-axis direction, the second FPCB 420 may be bent along the -Z-direction. Thus, as the second FPCB 420 is bent, it can electrically connect components with different heights relative to the Z-axis.
[0106] According to various embodiments of this disclosure, since the FPCB 400 includes a bent portion, stress can occur in the FPCB 400. A portion adjacent to the bent portion of the FPCB 400 can contact components disposed within the electronic device 101. Therefore, the stress generated in the FPCB 400 can contact the components disposed within the electronic device 101 and transmit force to the components disposed within the electronic device 101. Due to the force transmitted through contact with the FPCB 400, the structure of the electronic device 101 may deform.

[0113] In one embodiment of this disclosure, at least a portion of the first FPCB 410 may be bent along the -Z-axis direction to bypass a component disposed between the first PCB 410 and the DDI (not shown). For example, the first FPCB 410 may be bent along the -Z-axis direction such that at least a portion of the first FPCB 410 is disposed in the space between the first guide member 510 and the backplate 380.
[0114] According to various embodiments of this disclosure, a first guide member 510 may be disposed adjacent to the battery 350, the display 330, and the second PCB 342. The first guide member 510 may contact the FPCB 400. For example, the first guide member 510 may contact the first FPCB 410. In embodiments of this disclosure, at least a portion of the first guide member 510 may be formed of an adhesive material, or an adhesive may be disposed on the surface of the first guide member 510. Therefore, the first FPCB 410 may be adhered to and secured to the first guide member 510. When the first guide member 510 and the first FPCB 410 are in contact, the sides of the first FPCB 410 and the battery 350 may be spaced apart.

The second guide member 520 may contact the FPCB 400. For example, the second guide member 520 may contact the first FPCB 410. The second guide member 520 may contact the backplane 380. When the second guide member 520 and the backplane 380 are in contact with each other, the second guide member 520 may protect the second PCB 342 from external impacts. (The following is a continuation of the previous paragraph...) Figure 10a Together with the description, a detailed description of the second guiding member 520 is given.
[0116] Reference Figure 7 This allows for a more detailed examination of the structure of the display 330 and FPCB 400.
[0117] According to various embodiments of this disclosure, one end of the first FPCB 410 may be connected to the DDI (not shown) of the display 330, and the other end may be connected to the first PCB (…). Figure 6(341) Connection. The first FPCB 410 may include a main connection unit 414. The main connection unit 414 may be disposed at the other end of the first FPCB 410 to connect the first FPCB 410 and the first PCB 341. When the first FPCB 410 is disposed, for example, along the X-axis direction from DDI to the first PCB 341, at least a portion of the first FPCB 410 may have different Z-axis values. Therefore, the first FPCB 410 may include a bent portion in the XZ plane. As described above, since the first FPCB 410 includes a bent portion, the first FPCB 410 can bypass components or structures disposed between two other spaced-apart components of the electronic device 101, thereby connecting the other two components of the electronic device 101.
[0118] According to various embodiments of this disclosure, one end of the second FPCB 420 may be connected to the DDI of the display 330, and the other end may be connected to the second PCB 342. The second FPCB 420 may include a sub-connection unit 421. The sub-connection unit 421 may be disposed on the other end of the second FPCB 420 to connect the second FPCB 420 and the second PCB 342. As the second FPCB 420 travels from the DDI to the second PCB 342, the Z-axis value of the second FPCB 420 may change. Therefore, the second FPCB 420 may be arranged in a U-shape in the XZ plane. As described above, when the second FPCB 420 is arranged in a U-shape, the second FPCB 420 may electrically connect two spaced-apart components of the electronic device 101. Optionally, the second FPCB 420 may electrically connect two components of the electronic device 101 with different Z-axis values.
[0119] Figure 8 This is an exploded perspective view showing a display according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.
[0120] According to various embodiments of this disclosure, electronic device 101 may include display 330. Figure 8 The display 330 shown can be connected with Figures 4 to 7 The displays 330 shown are all or partially identical. Therefore, no descriptions of identical components are given.
[0121] Reference Figure 8 According to various embodiments of the present disclosure, the display 330 may include a lamp 331, a lampshade 332, a reflector 333, a light guide plate 334, a diffuser 335, a vertical prism sheet 336, a horizontal prism sheet 337, a protective sheet 338, and a liquid crystal display (LCD) panel 339.
[0122] According to various embodiments of this disclosure, the lamp 331 of the display 330 can generate light. Therefore, the lamp 331 can perform a light-emitting function. The lamp 331 may include a side lamp 331-1 and a back lamp 331-2.
[0123] According to various embodiments of this disclosure, such as Figure 8 As shown, the side lamp 331-1 can be disposed on the side of the light guide plate 334. The lamp cover 332 can be disposed around the side lamp 331-1. The lamp cover 332 can reflect the light generated from the side lamp 331-1 to the light guide plate 334. Therefore, the luminous efficiency of the display 330 can be increased. Although in Figure 8 Only one side lamp 331-1 is shown, but lamp 331 may include one or more side lamps 331-1. For example, side lamp 331-1 may be provided not only on one side of light guide plate 334, but also on the other side of light guide plate 334.
[0124] According to another embodiment of this disclosure, the backlight 331-2 in the components of the display 330 may be disposed on the innermost side of the electronic device 101. For example, as Figure 8 As shown, among the backlight 331-2, reflector 333, light guide plate 334, diffuser 335, vertical prism sheet 336, horizontal prism sheet 337, protective sheet 338 and LCD panel 339, the backlight 331-2 can be set to have the minimum Z-axis value.
[0125] According to various embodiments of this disclosure, the reflector 333 can be disposed along the -Z-axis direction of the light guide plate 334. The reflector 333, which reflects light traveling along the -Z-axis direction in the light incident on the light guide plate 334, can be disposed along the -Z-axis direction of the light guide plate 334. The light reflected by the reflector 333 can travel along the +Z-axis direction. Therefore, the luminous efficiency of the display 330 can be improved. The reflector 333 can be used when using side lamps 331-1.
[0126] According to various embodiments of this disclosure, the light guide plate 334 may be disposed along the +Z axis direction of the reflector 333. Light incident from the side lamp 331-1 or back lamp 331-2 of the lamp 331 is incident on the light guide plate 334. The light guide plate 334 can uniformly distribute the incident light. Therefore, the light incident from the lamp 331 onto the light guide plate 334 can be uniformly distributed over the entire area of the screen of the display 330. The light guide plate 334 may be formed of polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA).
[0127] According to various embodiments of this disclosure, the diffuser 335 may be disposed along the +Z axis direction of the light guide plate 334. The diffuser 335 can scatter light emitted from the light guide plate 334 and diffuse it more uniformly, and propagate the light emitted from the light guide plate 334 forward, thereby increasing the viewing angle of the screen. Furthermore, the diffuser 335 can block a series of optical patterns formed on the light guide plate 334 or strong light from the side lamps 331-1 or the back lamps 331-2. The diffuser 335 may be formed of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) film. When the diffuser 335 is used, the brightness of the display 330 can be increased.
[0128] According to various embodiments of this disclosure, the vertical prism sheet 336 and the horizontal prism sheet 337 may be arranged along the +Z axis direction of the diffuser sheet 335. The horizontal prism sheet 337 may be arranged along the +Z axis direction of the vertical prism sheet 336. The vertical prism sheet 336 may be arranged along the +Z axis direction of the horizontal prism sheet 337. The vertical prism sheet 336 and the horizontal prism sheet 337 can refract and converge light emitted from the diffuser sheet 335. For example, using the vertical prism sheet 336 and the horizontal prism sheet 337, side light can be refracted into front light. Therefore, the brightness of the display 330 can be further increased.
[0129] According to various embodiments of this disclosure, the protective sheet 338 may be disposed along the +Z axis direction of the vertical prism sheet 336 or the horizontal prism sheet 337. The protective sheet 338 can protect the vertical prism sheet 336 or the horizontal prism sheet 337 from external impacts. In addition, the protective sheet 338 can prevent foreign objects from entering.
[0130] According to various embodiments of this disclosure, the LCD panel 339 may be disposed along the +Z axis direction of the protective sheet 338. The LCD panel 339 includes liquid crystal. The liquid crystal may be controlled by electrical signals from the DDI. The liquid crystal may control the brightness and color of the light emitted from the protective sheet 338 via electrical signals. Due to the adjusted brightness and color of the light from the LCD panel 339, a user can perceive visual information from the display 330.

[0132] According to various embodiments of the present disclosure, electronic device 101 may include display 330, battery 350, backplane 380, first FPCB 410 and / or guide member 500. Figure 9a and Figure 9b The electronic device 101 shown includes a display 330, a battery 350, a backplane 380, a first FPCB 410, and a guide member 500, which can be connected to... Figures 4 to 8The display 330, battery 350, backplane 380, first FPCB 410, and guide member 500 of the illustrated electronic device 101 are all or partially identical. Therefore, no description of identical components is given.
[0133] Reference Figure 9a and Figure 9b According to various embodiments of this disclosure, the guide member 500 may include a first guide member 510 and a second guide member 520. A first FPCB 410 may be disposed between the first guide member 510 and the second guide member 520. For example, the first FPCB 410 may be configured to pass through between the first guide member 510 and the second guide member 520.
[0134] In one embodiment of this disclosure, the first FPCB 410 may include a first portion 411 adjacent to the display 330, a second portion 412 adjacent to the back panel 380, and a third portion 413 disposed between the first portion 411 and the second portion 412. For example, the third portion 413 may be bent while extending from the first portion 411 to the second portion 412. In one embodiment of this disclosure, the second portion 412 may be located between the back panel 380 and the battery 350. When viewed from above the back panel 380, the third portion 413 may overlap with the first guide member 510. In an embodiment of this disclosure, the second guide member 520 may be closer to the back panel 380 than the first guide member 510. In an embodiment of this disclosure, at least a portion of the third portion 413 may be disposed between the first guide member 510 and the second guide member 520.
[0135] According to various embodiments of this disclosure, the first FPCB 410 may include a first portion 411, a second portion 412, and a third portion 413. The first portion 411, the third portion 413, and the second portion 412 may be arranged sequentially along the +X axis direction.
[0136] According to various embodiments of this disclosure, the first portion 411 may be connected to a DDI. The first portion 411 may be disposed adjacent to the display 330. According to another embodiment of this disclosure, the first portion 411 may be in contact with the display 330. The first portion 411 may be disposed parallel to the display 330. The first portion 411 may have a flat surface by having a constant Z-axis value.
[0137] According to various embodiments of the present disclosure, a third portion 413 may extend from a first portion 411. The Z-value of the third portion 413, which is disposed parallel to the X-axis, may be varied. For example, as the third portion 413 (e.g., a portion disposed along the +X-axis direction) gets closer to the first PCB 341, the Z-axis value of at least a portion of the third portion 413 may decrease. In embodiments of the present disclosure, the third portion 413 may contact the first guide member 510 of the guide member 500. At least a portion of the third portion 413 may be fixedly attached to the first guide member 510. The third portion 413 may contact the first guide member 510 to be tilted. According to embodiments of the present disclosure, as a portion of the third portion 413 is disposed further along the X-axis direction, the third portion 413 may be configured to be tilted along the -Z-axis direction by contacting the first guide member 510.
[0138] According to various embodiments of this disclosure, a portion of the first portion 411 and / or a portion of the third portion 413 may contact the display 330. As the third portion 413 moves closer to the first PCB 341 (e.g., a portion positioned more along the +X axis direction), the third portion 413 may be formed to be bent along the -Z axis direction. As the third portion 413 is formed to be bent, a first stress 430 acting along the +Z axis direction may occur in the first portion 411 and / or the third portion 413. When the first portion 411 and / or the third portion 413 contacts the display 330, the first stress 430 generated in the first portion 411 and / or the third portion 413 is transferred to the display 330. For example, the first portion 411 and / or the third portion 413 may contact the reflective sheet 333 of the display 330, such that the first stress 430 can be transferred to the reflective sheet 333.
[0139] According to various embodiments of this disclosure, a first guide member 510 may be disposed adjacent to a display 330. The first guide member 510 may be formed to protrude from the display 330 toward a back panel 380, for example, along the -Z-axis direction. In embodiments of this disclosure, the first guide member 510 may contact a third portion 413. When the first guide member 510 is formed to protrude along the -Z-axis direction and contact the third portion 413, a portion of the third portion 413 may not contact the side of the battery 350. As another example, when the first guide member 510 contacts a portion of the third portion 413 and transmits force along the -Z-axis direction, a second stress 440 acting along the -Z-axis direction may occur in the third portion 413. The second stress 440 generated in the third portion 413 may be transmitted to the first portion 411 and / or the third portion 413. Therefore, the first stress 430 acting along the +Z-axis direction and the second stress 440 acting along the -Z-axis direction are canceled out, such that the magnitude of the first stress 430 from the first portion 411 and / or the third portion 413 to the display 330 can be reduced. Therefore, as the magnitude of the force transmitted to the display 330 is reduced, the deformation of the display 330 can be reduced. As the deformation of the display 330 is reduced, the display 330 can output to the screen normally.
[0140] According to another embodiment of this disclosure, the first stress 430 acting along the +Z axis and the second stress 440 acting along the -Z axis are canceled out, so that there may be no force from the first portion 411 and / or the third portion 413 to the display 330.
[0141] According to another embodiment of this disclosure, the second stress 440 acting along the -Z axis direction may be greater than the first stress 430 acting along the +Z axis direction, such that the second stress 440 can act on the first portion 411 and / or the third portion 413 of the first FPCB along the -Z axis direction.
[0142] Thus, as the initial stress 430 transmitted to the display 330 is reduced or eliminated, the display 330 does not deform. Therefore, the display 330 can output data normally.
[0143] According to various embodiments of the present disclosure, the first guide member 510 may be formed of an adhesive material, or an adhesive may be applied to the surface of the first guide member 510. Therefore, the third portion 413 may contact the adhesive material of the first guide member 510 or the adhesive applied to the first guide member 510. When the third portion 413 contacts the adhesive material or adhesive, it may be adhered or secured to the first guide member 510, and a second stress 440 acting in the -Z-axis direction may occur in the first portion 411 and / or the third portion 413. Because the second stress 440 is generated in the first portion 411 and / or the third portion 413 in the -Z-axis direction, the magnitude of the first stress 430 transmitted from the first portion 411 and / or the third portion 413 to the display 330 may be reduced. According to another embodiment of the present disclosure, the first stress 430 transmitted from the first portion 411 and / or the third portion 413 to the display 330 may not exist. According to another embodiment of the present disclosure, the second stress 440 may act in the first portion 411 and / or the third portion 413 in the -Z-axis direction. In this way, as the first stress 430 transmitted to the display 330 is reduced or eliminated, the deformation occurring in the display 330 can be reduced or relieved. Therefore, the display 330 can output the screen normally.

[0145] According to various embodiments of the present disclosure, electronic device 101 may include display 330, battery 350, backplane 380, first FPCB 410 and / or guide member 500. Figure 10a and Figure 10b The electronic device 101 shown includes a display 330, a battery 350, a backplane 380, a first FPCB 410, and a guide member 500, which can be connected to... Figures 4 to 8 , Figure 9a and Figure 9b The display 330, battery 350, backplane 380, first FPCB 410, and guide member 500 of the illustrated electronic device 101 are all or partially identical. Therefore, no description of identical components is given.
[0146] Reference Figure 10a and Figure 10b According to various embodiments of this disclosure, the guide member 500 may include a first guide member 510 and a second guide member 520. At least a portion of the first FPCB 410 may be disposed between the first guide member 510 and the second guide member 520.
[0147] According to various embodiments of the present disclosure, the first guide member 510 may include a concave recess 511. The second guide member 520 may include a protrusion 521 formed to project along the +Z axis and / or +X axis direction. In embodiments of the present disclosure, the shape of at least a portion of the recess 511 may correspond to the shape of at least a portion of the protrusion 521. The recess 511 and the protrusion 521 may be disposed adjacent to each other. For example, the protrusion 521 may press against a third portion 413 located between the recess 511 and the protrusion 521, such that at least a portion of the third portion 413 may be bent or positioned.
[0148] According to various embodiments of this disclosure, a third portion 413 may be disposed between the recess 511 and the protrusion 521. For example, the third portion 413 may be configured to pass through between the recess 511 and the protrusion 521. The third portion 413 may contact the protrusion 521 and / or the recess 511. For example, the third portion 413 may contact the protrusion 521 of the second guide member 520 at at least one point. The third portion 413 may contact the first guide member 510 at at least two points. The third portion 413 may deform by contacting the protrusion 521 and the recess 511. For example, the portion of the third portion 413 that contacts the protrusion 521 and / or the recess 511, as well as the periphery of that portion, may maintain or reduce the Z-axis value of the third portion 413. For example, a portion of the third portion 413 may be formed to be inclined or may be formed to be substantially parallel to the display 330. Therefore, a second stress 440 acting on the first portion 411 and / or the third portion 413 along the -Z-axis direction may occur. Because the second stress 440 acting along the -Z-axis direction generated on the first portion 411 and / or the third portion 413 by the protrusion 521 and the groove 511 can reduce the first stress 430 transmitted from the first portion 411 and / or the third portion 413 to the display 330. According to another embodiment of the present disclosure, the first stress 430 transmitted from the first portion 411 and / or the third portion 413 to the display 330 may not exist. According to another embodiment of the present disclosure, the second stress 440 may act along the -Z-axis direction in the first portion 411 and / or the third portion 413. Thus, as the first stress 430 transmitted from the first portion 411 and / or the third portion 413 to the display 330 is reduced or eliminated, deformation may not occur in the display 330. Therefore, the display 330 can output the screen normally.

[0150] According to various embodiments of the present disclosure, electronic device 101 may include display 330, battery 350, backplane 380, first FPCB 410 and / or guide member 500. Figure 11a and Figure 11b The electronic device 101 shown includes a display 330, a battery 350, a backplane 380, a first FPCB 410, and a guide member 500, which can be connected to... Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 , Figure 9a , Figure 9b , Figure 10a and Figure 10b The display 330, battery 350, backplane 380, first FPCB 410, and guide member 500 of the illustrated electronic device 101 are all or partially identical. Therefore, no description of identical components is given.
[0151] Reference Figure 11a and Figure 11b According to various embodiments of this disclosure, the guide member 500 may include a first guide member 510 and a second guide member 520. At least a portion of the first FPCB 410 may be disposed between the first guide member 510 and the second guide member 520.
[0152] The first guide member 510 may include a concave recess 511. The second guide member 520 may include a protrusion 521 formed to project from the back side to the front side, for example, along the +Z axis and / or +X axis direction. In embodiments of this disclosure, the shape of the recess 511 may correspond to the shape of the protrusion 521. The recess 511 and the protrusion 521 may be disposed adjacent to each other. In embodiments of this disclosure, the recess 511 may be formed to become more inclined along the Z axis direction as the recess 511 travels along the X axis direction. For example, the protrusion 521 may press against a third portion 413 located between the recess 511 and the protrusion 521, such that at least a portion of the third portion 413 may be bent or positioned.
[0153] According to various embodiments of this disclosure, a third portion 413 may be disposed between the recess 511 and the protrusion 521. For example, the third portion 413 may be configured to pass through the recess 511 and the protrusion 521. The third portion 413 may be deformable through the protrusion 521 and the recess 511. For example, the portion of the third portion 413 that contacts the protrusion 521 and the recess 511, as well as the periphery of that portion, may have an increased Z-axis value. For example, the third portion 413 may be formed to be further inclined in the Z-axis direction as it gets closer to the first PCB 341. Therefore, a second stress 440 acting on the third portion 413 in the -Z-axis direction may occur. Due to the second stress 440 acting in the -Z-axis direction generated on the third portion 413 through the protrusion 521 and the recess 511, the first stress 430 transmitted from the first portion 411 and / or the third portion 413 may be reduced. According to another embodiment of this disclosure, since the first stress 430 and the second stress 440 can cancel each other out, the first stress 430 transmitted from the first portion 411 and / or the third portion 413 to the display 330 may not occur. According to another embodiment of this disclosure, the resultant force of the first stress 430 and the second stress 440 acting on the first portion 411 and / or the third portion 413 can act along the -Z-axis direction. Thus, as the first stress 430 transmitted from the first portion 411 and / or the third portion 413 to the display 330 is reduced or eliminated, deformation may not occur in the display 330. Therefore, the display 330 can output the screen normally.
[0154] According to various embodiments of this disclosure, electronic devices ( Figure 4 The electronic device 101 may include: a housing ( Figure 2 Housing 310); Display ( Figure 4 The display 330 is disposed inside the housing, wherein the display is along a first direction ( Figure 9a The +Z) is set such that the screen of the display is exposed to the outside of the display; the first PCB ( Figure 5 The first PCB 341 is disposed inside the housing; FPCB ( Figure 5 The FPCB 410 is disposed inside the housing and includes a first portion adjacent to the display.
