[0028] Hereinafter, various embodiments of this document are described with reference to the attached drawings.

[0029] One embodiment of the present invention described below provides an electronic device including a flexible display, a side member that provides an internal space for accommodating the flexible display, a flexible substrate including a bending portion that is electrically connected to the flexible display and bends toward the side member, and a conductive member disposed between the side member and the flexible substrate.

[0034] An electronic device according to one embodiment can secure stable radiation performance by reducing or preventing fluctuations in resonant frequency due to distance deviation since there is no distance deviation between the side member and the conductive member.

[0035] In addition, various purposes and effects provided by electronic devices according to various embodiments may be mentioned according to the embodiments of the detailed description.

According to one embodiment, a portion of the conductive portion (620) may not be visible from the outside. According to one embodiment, at least a portion of the conductive portion (620) may be arranged so as to be exposed to the internal space of the electronic device. According to one embodiment, at least a portion of the conductive portion (620) may be positioned so as to be exposed and visible from the outside.

[0070] According to one embodiment, the conductive portion (620) is electrically connected to a processor (e.g., the processor (110) of FIG. 1) and / or a communication circuit (e.g., the communication circuit (160) of FIG. 1) and may operate as an antenna. At least a portion of the conductive portion (620) operating as an antenna may operate in a frequency band of a low band (e.g., about 600 MHz to 1200 MHz), a mid band (e.g., about 1500 MHz to 2200 MHz) and / or a high band (e.g., about 2300 MHz to 2700 MHz). The frequency band of the antenna is not limited to the above-described examples, and signals of other frequency bands may be transmitted and received.

[0071] According to one embodiment, the side member (630) may include a support member (710) (e.g., the first support member (311) of FIG. 3) extending into the interior space (750) from at least a portion of one of the first side wall (632), the second side wall (632), the third side wall (633), and the fourth side wall (634). According to one embodiment, at least a portion of the support member (710) may be formed of the same material as the conductive portion (620) and / or the non-conductive portion (610). According to one embodiment, the support member (710) may be arranged to extend from the side member (630) or be structurally connected to the side member (630).

[0072] According to one embodiment, the support member (710) may include a first support surface (711) facing a first direction (e.g., +z-axis direction) and a second support surface (712) facing a second direction (e.g., -z-axis direction) opposite to the first support surface (711). As an example, a display (530) may be disposed on the first support surface (711), and a printed circuit board (e.g., printed circuit board (340) of FIG. 4) may be disposed on the second support surface (712).

[0073] According to one embodiment, the display (530) may be disposed on the first support surface (711) of the support member (710). The display (530) may visually provide various information to a user of the electronic device (500). The display (530) may be electrically connected to a printed circuit board. For example, the display (530) may include a display panel (740) to provide various information, and a display circuit unit (730) for driving and controlling the display (530). For example, the display (530) may include a touch sensor for performing an input function, a display panel (740) for performing a display function, and a display circuit unit (730) for driving and controlling the display (530).

[0074] The display circuitry (730) may be disposed on the lower portion (e.g., in the -x-axis direction) of the display panel (740). The display circuitry (730) may include a display driver IC (DDI) and / or a touch display driver IC (TDDI). The display circuitry (730) may be disposed on at least one flexible substrate including a first flexible substrate (540) having an electrical wiring structure. For example, the display circuitry (730) may have a COP (chip on plastic or chip on panel) structure and may be disposed on the first flexible substrate (540), which is a part of a plastic substrate included in the display panel (740). For example, the display circuitry (730) may have a COF (chip on film) structure and may be disposed on the first flexible substrate (540), which is a separate film (e.g., a flexible printed circuit board) attached to a glass substrate and / or plastic included in the display panel (740). The first flexible substrate (540) can be folded based on a bending axis that is parallel to the x-axis. At least a portion of the first flexible substrate (540) can include a first bending portion (541) that bends from each of one side (e.g., a side facing the +z-axis) of the display panel (740) and the other side (e.g., a side facing the -z-axis) of the display panel (740) toward the side member (630). At least a portion of the first bending portion (541) can be arranged to face the side member (630) in the y-axis direction. At least one of the plurality of side walls included in the side member (630) can include an outer side surface (703), an inner side surface (702), and an upper side surface (701). The outer side surface (703) can be formed to face the outside of the electronic device (500) to form a side appearance of the electronic device (500). The inner side (702) may be formed to face the outer side (703) and face the inner space (750) of the electronic device (500).The upper side (701) (e.g., the side facing the +z axis) may be formed to face the front plate (720) between the outer side (703) and the inner side (702). The first bending portion (541) may be formed to protrude more than one side (e.g., the side facing the -y axis) of the display panel (740) toward the side member (630). For example, the first bending portion (541) may be formed to be curved toward a side wall (e.g., a third side wall (633)) in which a connector hole (e.g., a connector hole (208, 209) of FIGS. 2 and 3) of the side member (630) is arranged.

[0075] According to one embodiment, a conductive member (or, conductive strip, metal strip, inner conductor, internal conductor, conductive bar) (550) may be disposed on a portion of the side member (630). The conductive member (550) may be disposed on an inner surface (702) made of a non-conductive material included in the side member (630). The conductive member (550) may be electrically insulated from a conductive portion (620) of the side member (630) that operates as an antenna through a non-conductive portion (610) of the side member (630). The conductive member (550) may be disposed on the inner surface (702) of the side member (630) so as to face a first bending portion (541) of a first flexible substrate (540) that is electrically connected to a display panel (740). For example, the apex (or, extreme point, curved point) portion (542) of the first banding portion (541) may be formed convexly toward the conductive member (550).

[0076] According to one embodiment, when looking at the side of the electronic device (500), the side walls (632, 633, 634) of the side member (630), the conductive member (550), the internal space (750), and the first banding portion (541) may be sequentially arranged. For example, at least a portion of the internal space (750) may be filled with a fluid (e.g., gas, air) and / or a solid material (e.g., molding). For example, at least a portion of the internal space (750) may be filled with a material of the same type and / or a different type of material (e.g., air) as the non-conductive portion (610) of the side member (630). The conductive member (550) may be formed such that one side (or the side facing the internal space (750) of the electronic device (500)) faces the inner side (702), and the other side (or the side facing the outside of the electronic device (500)) faces the first bending portion (541). One side of the conductive member (550) may be in contact with the inner side (702) extending from the non-conductive portion (610). One side of the conductive member (550) may be in contact with the inner side (702) made of the same material as the non-conductive portion (610). The other side of the conductive member (550) may not be in contact with the inner side (702) made of the same material as the non-conductive portion (610). The surface of the conductive member (550) can be spaced apart from the first banding portion (541) with the internal space (750) of the electronic device (500) interposed therebetween.

[0077] According to one embodiment, the conductive member (550) may be formed long along the inner side (702) of the side member (630) facing the banding portion (541) of the first flexible substrate (540). The conductive member (550) can be formed continuously without a break between the second side wall (632) and the fourth side wall (634) so ​​as to be parallel to the third side wall (633). The conductive member (550) can be formed continuously without a break between the first conductive part (621) formed between the first non-conductive part (611) and the second non-conductive part (612). The conductive member (550) can have a longer length than the first conductive part (621). The conductive member (550) can be formed in a strip shape along the inner surface (702) of the third side wall (633) of the side member (630). The conductive member (550) can be formed in a line along the x-axis by a second conductive part (622), a first non-conductive part (611), a first conductive part (621), and a second It can be formed in a strip shape along the non-conductive portion (612) and the third conductive portion (623). The conductive member (550) can be formed using a conductive material. For example, the conductive member (550) can be formed using a conductive tape or a metal (e.g., copper) tape. For example, the conductive member (550) can be formed by thinly laminating a metal material on the inner surface (702) of the side member (630) through a deposition process (e.g., PVD (physical vapor deposition)).

[0078] According to one embodiment, the conductive member (550) may have a length (e.g., a length parallel to the x-axis direction) that is the same as or different from a length (e.g., a length parallel to the x-axis direction) at which the conductive portion (620) used as the antenna and the first flexible substrate (540) overlap. For example, the conductive member (550) may have a length that is the same as the length of the first flexible substrate (540) (e.g., a length parallel to the x-axis direction), or may have a length that is smaller than or greater than the length of the first flexible substrate (540) (e.g., a length parallel to the x-axis direction).

[0079] According to one embodiment, the conductive member (550) may be arranged to overlap at least a portion of at least one of the conductive portion (620) that acts as an antenna of the side member and the non-conductive portion (610) that fills the slits (501, 502). For example, the conductive member (550) may be arranged to overlap at least a portion of the first conductive portion (621), at least a portion of the second conductive portion (622), at least a portion of the third conductive portion (623), the first non-conductive portion (611), and the second non-conductive portion (612).

[0080] According to one embodiment, the conductive member (550) may be disposed closer to the conductive portion (620) used as an antenna than the first flexible substrate (540) that is electrically connected to the display panel (740). Since the conductive member (550) is disposed on the inner surface (702) of the side member (630), the conductive member (550) may be disposed to be spaced apart from the conductive portion (620) of the side member (630) by a designated first distance (D1). The conductive member (550) may be disposed to be spaced apart from the conductive portion (620) by a first distance (D1) corresponding to the thickness (e.g., length in the y-axis direction) of the non-conductive portion (610). The conductive portion (620) of the side member (630) may be spaced apart from the bending portion (541) of the first flexible substrate (540) by a second distance (D2) that is greater than the first distance (D1). The second distance (D2) between the conductive portion (620) of the side member (630) and the bending portion (541) of the first flexible substrate (540) may vary depending on various deviation factors (e.g., attachment deviation of the first flexible substrate (540), lamination tolerance for attaching the display panel (740) and the front plate (720), mechanical component tolerance, and bonding tolerance). The conductive member (550) is arranged on the non-conductive portion (610) of the side member (630) for which tolerance management is easy, so that the conductive member (620) and the designated first distance (D1) can be constantly maintained regardless of the position of the first flexible substrate (540) (e.g., the bending portion (541)). Even if deviation and / or tolerance caused by the first flexible substrate (540) occur independently or in combination, the conductive member (550) can constantly maintain (or fix) the designated first distance (D1) with the side member (630) including the conductive member (620) that operates as an antenna. Since no distance deviation occurs between the side member and the conductive member, the capacitance (or parasitic capacitance, parasitic resonance) between the conductive member (550) and the conductive portion (620) can be constantly maintained.An electronic device according to one embodiment can reduce or prevent the occurrence of fluctuations in resonant frequency due to distance deviation, thereby ensuring stable radiation performance.

[0081] FIG. 8 is a drawing of an electronic device viewed from one direction with the front plate of the electronic device omitted according to an embodiment, and FIG. 9 is a drawing of an electronic device viewed from one direction with the front plate and display of the electronic device omitted according to an embodiment. The electronic device (800) of FIGS. 8 and 9 may include embodiments that are at least partially similar to or different from at least one of the preceding embodiments of FIGS. 1 to 7. The electronic device (800) of FIGS. 8 and 9 is the same as or omitted from the preceding embodiments of at least one of FIGS. 1 to 7 for components that are the same as or can be easily understood through the preceding embodiments, and a detailed description thereof will also be omitted.

[0082] Referring to FIGS. 8 and 9, an electronic device (800) according to one embodiment may include a side member (630), a display (530), at least one flexible substrate (e.g., a first flexible substrate (540)), and a conductive member (850).

[0083] According to one embodiment, the conductive member (850) may include a plurality of conductive members (851, 852) spaced apart from each other. The conductive member (850) may be formed to correspond to a plurality of slits (501, 502) and / or a plurality of non-conductive portions (611, 612) of the side member (630). For example, the conductive member (850) may include a first conductive member (851) corresponding to the first slit (501) and / or the first non-conductive portion (611), and a second conductive member (852) corresponding to the second slit (502) and / or the second non-conductive portion (612). The first conductive member (851) and the second conductive member (852) may be spaced apart from each other in an area corresponding to the first conductive portion (621).

[0084] The first conductive member (851) may be formed in the first slit (501) and / or the first non-conductive portion (611) and an adjacent area thereof. The first conductive member (851) may be formed to have a longer length (e.g., a length in the x-axis direction) than the first non-conductive portion (611). The first conductive member (851) may be formed on the inner surface (702) of the side member (630) along the inner surface (702) made of a non-conductive material of the side member (630).

[0085] The second conductive member (852) may be formed in the second slit (502) and / or the second non-conductive portion (612) and an adjacent area thereof. The second conductive member (852) may be formed to have a longer length (e.g., a length in the x-axis direction) than the second non-conductive portion (612).

[0086] The first non-conductive portion (611) and the second non-conductive portion (612) may overlap with the conductive member (850) in a direction from the outer surface (703) to the inner surface (702) (e.g., in the +y-axis direction). A portion of the first conductive portion (621) may overlap with the conductive member (850) in a direction from the outer surface (703) to the inner surface (702). Another portion of the first conductive portion (621) may not overlap with the conductive member (850) in a direction from the outer surface (703) to the inner surface (702).

[0087] According to one embodiment, the separation distance between the plurality of conductive members (850) may be arranged closer than the separation distance between the plurality of non-conductive parts (611, 612). For example, the separation distance (e.g., the distance parallel to the x-axis) between the first conductive member (851) and the second conductive member (852) may be arranged closer than the separation distance (e.g., the distance parallel to the x-axis) between the first non-conductive part (611) and the second non-conductive part (612).

[0088] In an electronic device according to an embodiment, even if a deviation in the attachment of the first flexible substrate (540) occurs, the first conductive member (851) and / or the second conductive member (852) can be arranged closer to the side member (630) than the first flexible substrate (540) and maintain a constant distance from the side member (630). Since a distance deviation between the first conductive member (851) and / or the second conductive member (852) and the side member (630) does not occur, the capacitance (or parasitic capacitance, parasitic resonance) between the conductive member (850) and the conductive portion (620) can be maintained constant. The electronic device according to an embodiment can reduce or prevent a change in the resonant frequency due to a distance deviation, thereby ensuring stable radiation performance.

[0089] An electronic device according to an embodiment can minimize capacitance (or parasitic capacitance, parasitic resonance) between the conductive member (850) and the first conductive portion (621) by non-overlapping each of the first conductive member (851) and / or the second conductive member (852) with at least a portion of the first conductive portion (621). The electronic device according to an embodiment can reduce the amount of change in resonance frequency due to the conductive member (850), thereby ensuring stable radiation performance.

The display circuit unit (730) may be disposed on a first flexible substrate (540) having an electrical wiring structure. For example, the display circuit unit (730) may have a COP (chip on plastic or chip on panel) structure and may be disposed on the first flexible substrate (540), which is a part of a plastic substrate included in the display panel (740). For example, the display circuit unit (730) may have a COF (chip on film) structure and may be disposed on the first flexible substrate (540), which is a separate film attached to a substrate included in the display panel (740).

[0096] According to one embodiment, the first flexible substrate (540) can be folded based on a bending axis that is parallel to the x-axis. At least a portion of the first flexible substrate (540) can include a first bending portion (541) that bends from one side of the display panel (740) (e.g., a side facing the +z-axis) to the other side of the display panel (740) (e.g., a side facing the -z-axis). The first bending portion (541) can be arranged to face the inner side (702) of the side member (630). The first bending portion (541) can be formed to protrude more than one side of the display panel (740) (e.g., a side facing the -y-axis) toward the side member (630).

For example, the touch circuit unit (1030) may have a COF (chip on film) structure and may be disposed on the second flexible substrate (1040), which is a separate film attached to a glass substrate and / or a plastic substrate included in the touch panel (1240). Electromagnetic waves generated from a printed circuit board (1170) (e.g., printed circuit board (340) of FIG. 4) electrically connected to the first flexible substrate (540) and the second flexible substrate (1040) can be shielded by a shielding member (1150). The shielding member (1150) can prevent noise generated from the display circuit unit (730), the touch circuit unit (1030), and / or the printed circuit board (1170) from spreading into the interior of the electronic device (1000). The shielding member (1150) can shield electromagnetic waves generated from the display (1130) (e.g., the display circuit unit (730), the touch circuit unit (1030), and / or the printed circuit board (1170)). The shielding member (1150) can shield electromagnetic interference between the display (1130) and the printed circuit board (1170). The shielding member (1150) may include a conductive material. For example, the shielding member (1150) may include a thin film sheet or plate made of copper (Cu) or graphite, or a shield can. In one embodiment, the shielding member (1150) may be electrically connected to at least a portion of the conductive portion (620) and / or the display (1130).The shielding member (1150) may also perform a grounding function for the conductive portion (620) and / or the display (1130).

[0098] According to one embodiment, a laminated member (1160) may be placed between the support member (710) and the shielding member (1150). The laminated member (1160) may be attached to the support member (710) to shield ambient noise. As an example, the laminated member (1160) may include an insulating tape (or an insulating sheet, an insulating film) and a conductive tape (or a conductive sheet, a conductive film) laminated on one surface of the insulating tape.

[0099] According to one embodiment, the second flexible substrate (1040) can be folded based on a bending axis that is parallel to the bending axis of the first flexible substrate (540). At least a portion of the second flexible substrate (1040) can overlap the first flexible substrate (540). The second flexible substrate (1040) can be folded to surround a portion of the first flexible substrate (540). At least a portion of the second flexible substrate (1040) can include a second bending portion (1041) that bends from one surface of the touch panel (1240) (e.g., a surface facing the +z axis) to the other surface of the display panel (740) (e.g., a surface facing the -z axis). The second bending portion (1041) can be folded to have a smaller curvature than the first bending portion (541). The second banding portion (1041) may be positioned to face the inner surface (702) of the side member (630). The second banding portion (1041) may be formed to protrude more than one side (e.g., the side facing the -y axis) of the display panel (740) toward the side member (630).

[0100] According to one embodiment, the conductive member (1050) may be formed to correspond to an area where the first flexible substrate (540) and the second flexible substrate (1040) overlap. The conductive member (1050) may be formed to extend along the inner surface (702) of the side member (630) facing the second bending portion (1041) of the second flexible substrate (1040). The conductive member (1050) may be formed in the shape of a strip of a metal material along a portion of the third side wall (633) of the side member (630). For example, the conductive member (1050) may be formed by attaching a conductive tape or a copper tape to the inner surface (702) of the side member (630). For example, the conductive member (1050) can be formed by thinly depositing a metal material on the inner surface (702) of the side member (630) through a deposition process (e.g., physical vapor deposition (PVD)).

[0101] According to one embodiment, the conductive member (1050) may have a length (e.g., a length parallel to the x-axis direction) that is the same as or different from a length (e.g., a length parallel to the x-axis direction) at which the first flexible substrate (540) and the second flexible substrate (1040) overlap. For example, the conductive member (1050) may have a length that is the same as a length (e.g., a length parallel to the x-axis direction) of the second flexible substrate (1040), or may have a length that is smaller than or greater than a length (e.g., a length parallel to the x-axis direction) of the second flexible substrate (1040).

[0102] According to one embodiment, the conductive member (1050) may be arranged to overlap at least a portion of at least one of the conductive portion (620) and the non-conductive portion (610) that act as an antenna of the side member (630). For example, the conductive member (1050) may be arranged to overlap at least a portion of the first conductive portion (621), the second conductive portion (622), and the first non-conductive portion (611) in a direction from the inner side (702) to the outer side (703) (e.g., in the -y-axis direction).

[0103] According to one embodiment, the conductive member (1050) may be disposed closer to the conductive portion (620) used as an antenna than the first flexible substrate (540) and the second flexible substrate (1040). Since the conductive member (1050) is disposed on the inner surface (702) of the side member (630), the conductive member (1050) may be disposed to be spaced apart from a portion of the conductive portion (620) of the side member (630) by a designated first distance (D1). The conductive member (1050) may be disposed to be spaced apart from the conductive portion (620) by a first distance (D1) corresponding to a thickness (e.g., a length in the y-axis direction) of a portion of the non-conductive portion (610). The conductive portion (620) of the side member (630) may be arranged to be spaced apart from the bending portion (1041) of the second flexible substrate (1040) by a second distance (D2) that is greater than the first distance (D1). The conductive portion (620) of the side member (630) may be arranged to be spaced apart from the bending portion (541) of the first flexible substrate (540) by a third distance (D3) that is greater than the second distance (D2). At least one of the second distance (D2) and the third distance (D3) may vary depending on various deviation factors (e.g., attachment deviation of the first flexible substrate (540), lamination tolerance for attaching the display panel (740) and the front plate (720), mechanical component tolerance, bonding tolerance).

[0104] The conductive member (1050) is placed in a non-conductive portion (610) that is easy to manage tolerances, so that a designated first distance (D1) can be maintained constant with respect to the conductive portion (620) regardless of the position of at least one of the first flexible substrate (540) and the second flexible substrate (1040).

[0105] In an electronic device according to an embodiment, even if a deviation occurs in the attachment of the second flexible substrate (1040), the conductive member (1050) can be arranged closer to the side member (630) than the second flexible substrate (1040) and maintain a constant distance from the side member (630). Since a distance deviation does not occur between the conductive member (1050) and the side member (630), the capacitance (or parasitic capacitance, parasitic resonance) between the conductive member (1050) and the conductive portion (620) can be maintained constant. The electronic device according to an embodiment can reduce or prevent a change in resonant frequency due to a distance deviation, thereby ensuring stable radiation performance.

[0106] In an embodiment, an electronic device may have a first conductive portion (621) and a third conductive portion (623) and a conductive member (1050) that may be non-overlapping. The capacitance (or parasitic capacitance, parasitic resonance) between the conductive member (850) and a side member (630) used as an antenna may be minimized. The electronic device according to an embodiment may reduce the amount of change in resonant frequency due to the conductive member (1050), thereby ensuring stable radiation performance.

[0108] Referring to FIGS. 13 and 14, an electronic device (1300) according to one embodiment may include a side member (630), at least one flexible substrate (540, 1040), a conductive member (1350), and a laminated member (1410) (e.g., the laminated member (1160) of FIG. 11).

[0109] In one embodiment, the laminated member (1410) can be attached on the support member (710) to shield ambient noise. For example, the laminated member (1410) can reduce or prevent electromagnetic influences (e.g., electromagnetic interference (EMI)) on electrical components, including a display circuitry (730) including a DDI, a printed circuit board (e.g., a printed circuit board (340) of FIG. 3), and / or a battery (e.g., a battery (350) of FIG. 3).

[0110] According to one embodiment, the laminated member (1410) may include an insulating tape (1420) (or an insulating sheet, an insulating film) and a conductive tape (1430) (or a conductive sheet, a conductive film) formed on one surface of the insulating tape (1420).

The second insulating region (1422) may be formed to have a shape and position corresponding to the conductive member (1350). For example, when the conductive member (1350) includes a first conductive member (1351) (e.g., the first conductive member (851) of FIG. 8) and a second conductive member (1352) (e.g., the second conductive member (852) of FIG. 8), a plurality of second insulating regions (1422) may be provided. Each of the plurality of second insulating regions (1422) may be formed to correspond in shape and / or position to each of the first conductive member (1351) and the second conductive member (1352).

[0112] The conductive tape (1430) may be placed between the first support surface (711) of the support member (710) and the first insulating region (1421) of the insulating tape (1420). The conductive tape (1430) may be formed on the first insulating region (1421) of the insulating tape (1420) and attached to the first support surface (711) of the support member (710).

[0113] The conductive member (1350) may be disposed between the inner surface (702) of the side member (630) and the second insulating region (1422) of the insulating tape (1420). The conductive member (1350) may be formed on the second insulating region (1422) of the insulating tape (1420) and attached to the inner surface (702) of the side member (630).

[0114] The conductive member (1350) may be formed of a conductive material that is the same as or different from the conductive tape (1430). For example, the conductive member (1350) may be laminated together with the conductive tape (1430) on the insulating tape (1420) through a lamination process using the same material as the conductive tape (1430).

[0115] The conductive member (1350) may be formed on the insulating tape (1420) to be spaced apart from the conductive tape (1430) by a designated gap (1510). The conductive member (1350) may be positioned to be spaced apart from the conductive tape (1430) by a designated gap (1510) near a corner where the inner surface (702) of the side member (630) and the first support surface (711) of the support member (710) meet. The conductive member (1350) may be electrically separated from the conductive tape (1430). The conductive member (1350) may be in a floating state to be electrically insulated from the conductive tape (1430). The conductive tape (1430) may be electrically connected to ground. For example, the conductive tape (1430) may be electrically connected to a ground terminal included in a printed circuit board (e.g., printed circuit board (340) of FIG. 4).

[0116] FIG. 15 is a diagram illustrating an electronic device according to an embodiment. The electronic device (1300) of FIG. 15 may include at least some similar or different embodiments from at least one of the preceding embodiments of FIGS. 1 to 14. The electronic device (1300) of FIG. 15 is identical to at least one of the preceding embodiments of FIGS. 1 to 14 or may be easily understood through the preceding embodiments, and the same reference numbers in the drawings are assigned or omitted, and detailed descriptions thereof are also omitted. In FIG. 15 <1501> is a drawing showing the front side of a laminated member of an electronic device according to an embodiment of the present invention; <1502> is a drawing showing the back side of a laminated member of an electronic device according to one embodiment; <1503> is a cross-sectional view taken along line D-D' of the electronic device of FIG. 13 to which a laminated member according to an embodiment of the present invention is applied.

[0117] Referring to FIG. 15, an electronic device (1300) according to one embodiment may include a side member (630), a display (740), at least one flexible substrate (540, 1040), a conductive member (1350), and a laminated member (1410).

[0118] According to one embodiment, the conductive member (1350) may be formed on the insulating tape (1420) to be electrically connected to the conductive tape (1430). The conductive member (1350) may be positioned to be in contact with the conductive tape (1430) without a separate gap.

The conductive member (1350) may be electrically connected to ground together with the conductive tape (1430). For example, the conductive member (1350) and the conductive tape (1430) may be electrically connected to a ground terminal included in a printed circuit board (e.g., the printed circuit board (340) of FIG. 4).

[0119] FIG. 16 is a drawing showing an electronic device according to an embodiment, and FIG. 17 is a drawing showing a laminated member included in the electronic device according to an embodiment. The electronic device (1600) of FIGS. 16 and 17 may include at least some similar or different embodiments from at least one of the preceding embodiments of FIGS. 1 to 15. The electronic device (1600) of FIGS. 16 and 17 is the same as or omitted from the drawings reference numerals for components that are the same as or can be easily understood through the preceding embodiments of at least one of the preceding embodiments of FIGS. 1 to 15, and a detailed description thereof will also be omitted. In FIG. 17 <1701> is a drawing showing the front side of a laminated member of an electronic device according to an embodiment of the present invention; <1702> is a drawing showing the rear surface of a laminated member of an electronic device according to one embodiment.

[0120] Referring to FIGS. 16 and 17, an electronic device (1600) according to one embodiment may include a side member (630), a conductive member (1650) (e.g., the conductive member (550) of FIG. 5), and a laminated member (1610) (e.g., the laminated member (1410) of FIG. 13).

[0121] According to one embodiment, the laminated member (1610) may include an insulating tape (1620) and a conductive tape (1630) formed on one surface of the insulating tape (1620).

[0122] The insulating tape (1620) may include a first insulating region (1621) corresponding to the conductive tape (1630) and a second insulating region (1622) corresponding to the conductive member (1650). At least a portion of the first insulating region (1621) and at least a portion of the second insulating region (1622) may be formed to be connected to each other and integrated. The second insulating region (1622) may be formed to have a shape and position corresponding to the conductive member (1650). For example, when the conductive member (1650) is formed in a long line shape in the x-axis direction, the second insulating region (1622) may be formed in a long line shape in the x-axis direction to correspond to the conductive member (1650).

[0123] According to one embodiment, the conductive member (1650) may be formed on the insulating tape (1620) and spaced apart from the conductive tape (1630) by a designated gap (1710). The conductive member (1650) may be in a floating state so as to be electrically insulated from the conductive tape (1630). The conductive tape (1630) may be electrically connected to ground. For example, the conductive tape (1630) may be electrically connected to a ground terminal included in a printed circuit board (e.g., a printed circuit board (340) of FIG. 4).

The conductive member (1650) may be positioned to contact the conductive tape (1630) without a separate gap. The conductive member (1650) may be electrically connected to ground together with the conductive tape (1630). For example, the conductive member (1650) and the conductive tape (1630) may be electrically connected to a ground terminal included in a printed circuit board.

[0125] Fig. 18 is a cross-sectional view showing an electronic device according to an embodiment. In Fig. 18 <1801> is a cross-sectional view showing a state before a conductive member of an electronic device according to an embodiment is attached; <1802> is a cross-sectional view showing a state after a conductive member of an electronic device is attached according to an embodiment. The electronic device (1800) of FIG. 18 may include at least some similar or different embodiments from at least one of the preceding embodiments of FIGS. 1 to 17. The electronic device (1800) of FIG. 18 is identical to or can be easily understood through the preceding embodiments of at least one of the preceding embodiments of FIGS. 1 to 17, and reference numbers in the drawings are given the same or omitted, and detailed descriptions thereof are also omitted.

[0126] Referring to FIG. 18, an electronic device (1800) according to one embodiment may include a side member (630), a display, at least one flexible substrate (540, 1040), and a conductive member (1850).

[0127] The side member (630) may include at least one opening (1810) formed in the shape of a hole, a groove, or an engraving. The opening (1810) may guide an attachment position of a conductive member (1850). The opening (1810) may be formed by removing a portion of a non-conductive portion (610) of the side member (630). The opening (1810) may include a first opening (1811) formed by removing a portion of an inner surface (702) of the side member (630), and a second opening (1812) formed by removing a portion of an upper surface (701) of the side member (630). The first opening (1811) and the second opening (1812) may be formed to be connected to each other. For example, the opening (1810) may be formed in an inverted “L” shape.

[0128] The conductive member (1850) can be attached to the side member (630) aligned with the opening (1810). Since the opening (1810) guides the attachment location of the conductive member (1850), the conductive member (1850) can be precisely attached on at least a portion of the upper surface (701) and the inner surface (702) of the side member (630). The conductive member (1850) can include a first conductive member (1851) and a second conductive member (1852) that are connected or separated from each other. The first conductive member (1851) can be attached on at least a portion of the inner surface (702) of the side member (630) through the first opening (1811). The first conductive member (1851) can be filled within the first opening (1811). The second conductive member (1852) can be attached to a portion of the upper surface (701) of the side member (630) through the second opening (1812). The second conductive member (1852) can be filled within the second opening (1812). The length of the second conductive member (1852) (e.g., the length in the z-axis direction) can be formed shorter than the length of the first conductive member (1851) (e.g., the length in the x-axis direction), thereby minimizing an increase in the total area of ​​the conductive member (1850). The resonant frequency variation due to the conductive member (1850) can be minimized or reduced.

[0129] FIG. 19 is a cross-sectional view showing an electronic device according to a comparative example, and FIG. 20 is a diagram showing the radiation efficiency of an electronic device according to a comparative example and the radiation efficiency of an electronic device according to an embodiment.

[0130] Referring to Fig. 19, <1901> is a cross-sectional view showing a first comparative example including a conductive member having a first area larger than the area of ​​a conductive member of an electronic device according to an embodiment of the present invention; <1902> is a cross-sectional view showing a second comparative example including a conductive member having a second area that is larger than the area of ​​the conductive member of the electronic device according to one embodiment and smaller than the first area.

[0131] The conductive member (1950) of the first comparative example and the conductive member (1960) of the second comparative example can be formed to have a larger surface area than the conductive member according to any one of the preceding embodiments of FIGS. 5 to 18 (e.g., the conductive member (550) of FIGS. 5, 6, and 7, the conductive member (850) of FIGS. 8 and 9, the conductive member (1050) of FIGS. 10, 11, and 12, the conductive member (1350) of FIGS. 13, 14, and 15, the conductive member (1650) of FIGS. 16 and 17, and the conductive member (1850) of FIG. 18). For example, the first length (e.g., length in the x-direction) of the conductive member (1950) of the first comparative example and the conductive member (1960) of the second comparative example may be equal to the first length of the conductive member according to any one of the preceding embodiments of FIGS. 5 to 18, and the second length (e.g., length in the y-axis direction) of the conductive member (1950) of the first comparative example and the conductive member (1960) of the second comparative example may be formed to be longer than the second length of the conductive member according to any one of the preceding embodiments of FIGS. 5 to 18.

[0132] The conductive member (1950) of the first comparative example may include a first conductive region (1951) formed on the inner surface (702) of the side member (630), a second conductive region (1952) formed on the upper surface (701) of the side member (630), and a third conductive region (1953) formed on the first support surface (711) of the support member (710). The conductive member (1960) of the second comparative example may include a first conductive region (1961) formed on the inner surface (702) of the side member (630) and a second conductive region (1962) formed on the upper surface (701) of the side member (630).

[0133] Referring to FIG. 20, graph (2001) represents the radiation efficiency in the case where no conductive member is provided, graph (2002) represents the radiation efficiency of the first comparative example of FIG. 19, graph (2003) represents the radiation efficiency of the second comparative example of FIG. 19, and graph (2004) represents the radiation efficiency of any one of the preceding examples of FIGS. 5 to 18.

[0134] The resonance frequency of the first comparative example of Fig. 19 (see graph (2002)) may be low shifted compared to the resonance frequency of the case without the conductive member (see graph (2001)). For example, the resonance frequency band of the first comparative example of Fig. 19 may be shifted by approximately 100 MHz from the frequency band of the case without the conductive member.

[0135] The resonance frequency of the second comparative example of Fig. 19 (see graph (2003)) may be low shifted compared to the resonance frequency of the case without the conductive member (see graph (2001)). For example, the resonance frequency band of the second comparative example of Fig. 19 may be shifted by approximately 62 MHz from the frequency band of the case without the conductive member.

[0136] The resonant frequency (see graph (2004)) of any of the preceding embodiments of FIGS. 5 to 18 may be low shifted compared to the resonant frequency (see graph (2001)) when no conductive member is provided. For example, the resonant frequency band of any of the preceding embodiments of FIGS. 5 to 18 may be shifted by approximately 23 MHz from the frequency band when no conductive member is provided.

[0137] It can be confirmed that the electronic device according to any one of the preceding embodiments of FIGS. 5 to 18 has the smallest amount of change in resonant frequency compared to the electronic device according to the first comparative example of FIG. 19 and the electronic device according to the second comparative example of FIG. 20.

[0138] FIG. 21a is a graph showing the radiation efficiency of an electronic device according to a comparative example without a conductive member, FIG. 21b is a graph showing the radiation efficiency of an electronic device according to an embodiment, and FIG. 21c is a graph showing the radiation efficiency of an electronic device according to an embodiment to which tuning is applied.

[0139] Referring to Fig. 21a, in the comparative example, a conductive member may not be formed on the inner wall of the side member. As the separation distance between the conductive portion of the side member used as the antenna of the comparative example and the bending portion of the flexible substrate changes, the resonant frequency of the comparative example may change (e.g., low shift) and the radiation performance may deteriorate. For example, when the separation distance between the conductive region of the side member of the comparative example and the bending portion of the flexible substrate is a first distance (2101), the radiation performance of the antenna in the first band (B1) (e.g., 830 MHz to 862 MHz) may be -6.7 dB. When the separation distance between the conductive region of the side member and the bending portion of the flexible substrate is a second distance shorter than the first distance (2102), the radiation performance of the antenna in the first band (B1) may be -7.5 dB. When the separation distance between the conductive region of the side member and the bending portion of the flexible substrate is a third distance shorter than the second distance (2103), the radiation performance of the antenna in the first band (B1) may be It may be -8.5 dB. When the separation distance between the conductive area of ​​the side member and the bending portion of the flexible substrate is a fourth distance shorter than the third distance (2104), the radiation performance of the antenna in the first band (B1) is -9.4 dB, and the radiation performance deviation may be large at 2.3 dB compared to when the separation distance is the first distance.

[0140] Referring to FIG. 21b, one embodiment may include a conductive member formed on an inner surface of a side member. By including the conductive member, the electronic device of one embodiment may change (e.g., low shift) the resonant frequency band of the conductive region used as the antenna radiator. For example, the second band (B2) (e.g., 770 MHz to 800 MHz) of the resonant frequency of the conductive region used as the antenna radiator may be lowered by about 600 MHz compared to the first band (e.g., 830 MHz to 862 MHz) of the resonant frequency of the comparative example of FIG. 21a.

[0141] In one embodiment, the electronic device may be arranged such that the bending portion of the flexible substrate and the conductive portion and / or the non-conductive portion of the side portion are spaced apart from each other with a conductive member therebetween. Even if the distance between the conductive portion of the side portion used as the antenna of one embodiment and the bending portion of the flexible substrate is different, the deviation in radiation efficiency may be reduced compared to the comparative example of FIG. 21A. For example, when the distance between the conductive portion of the side portion of the embodiment and the bending portion of the flexible substrate is a first distance (2201), the radiation performance of the antenna may be -7.7 dB in a second band (e.g., 770 MHz to 800 MHz). When the distance between the conductive portion of the side portion and the bending portion of the flexible substrate is a second distance shorter than the first distance (2202), the radiation performance of the antenna may be -7.8 dB in the second band (B2). When the separation distance between the conductive portion of the side member and the bending portion of the flexible substrate is a third distance shorter than the second distance (2203), the radiation performance of the antenna in the second band (B2) may be -8.3 dB. When the separation distance between the conductive portion of the side member and the bending portion of the flexible substrate is a fourth distance shorter than the third distance (2204), the radiation performance of the antenna in the second band (B2) may be -9.2 dB. In the embodiment, the radiation performance deviation of the antenna in the second band (B2) is 1.2 dB, which can significantly reduce the radiation performance deviation compared to the comparative example of FIG. 21a.

[0142] Referring to FIG. 21C, an electronic device according to an embodiment may be arranged such that a bending portion of a flexible substrate and a conductive portion of the side member are spaced apart from each other with a conductive member formed on an inner surface of the side member therebetween. An electronic device according to an embodiment including a conductive member formed on an inner surface of the side member may adjust (or tune) a resonant frequency of a conductive portion of the side member used as an antenna. A processor of the electronic device according to an embodiment may shift the resonant frequency of the conductive portion of the side member used as an antenna to a specified frequency or shift it by a specified amount. For example, the processor of the electronic device may adjust the resonant frequency of the conductive portion of the side member from a second band (B2) to a first band (B1). For example, when the separation distance between the conductive portion of the side member according to the embodiment and the bending portion of the flexible substrate is the first distance (2211), the radiation performance of the antenna in the first band (B1) changed through frequency adjustment may be -7.5 dB. When the separation distance between the conductive portion of the side member and the bending portion of the flexible substrate is a second distance shorter than the first distance (2212), the radiation performance of the antenna in the first band (B1) changed through frequency adjustment may be -7.3 dB. When the separation distance between the conductive portion of the side member and the bending portion of the flexible substrate is a third distance shorter than the second distance (2213), the radiation performance of the antenna in the first band (B1) changed through frequency adjustment may be -7.2 dB. When the separation distance between the conductive portion of the side member and the bending portion of the flexible substrate is a fourth distance shorter than the third distance (2214), the radiation performance of the antenna in the first band (B1) changed through frequency adjustment may be -7.1 dB. In the embodiment, the radiation performance deviation of the antenna in the first band (B1) is 0.4 dB, which can significantly reduce the antenna radiation performance deviation compared to the comparative example of FIG. 21a.
