Organic light emitting diode display and method for manufacturing the same

1. An organic light emitting diode (OLED) display device, comprising:

a cover window;

a guide frame having a flange attached to the cover window with adhesive tape and having a side wall that extends from the flange and faces an edge of the display panel;

an adhesive layer disposed on the cover window, within the guide frame;

a display panel attached to the cover window, via the adhesive layer; and

a buffering member disposed on a surface of the display panel that faces away from the adhesive layer,

the side wall being spaced apart from the display panel with a space between the side wall and the display panel, and the buffering member having a surface that faces away from the display panel and is exposed to an exterior of the OLED display device.

2. The OLED display device of claim 1 , wherein the adhesive layer is transparent, and an image is projected from the display panel, through the adhesive layer and the cover window, without passing though an air gap.

3. The OLED display device of claim 2 , wherein the adhesive layer is coated as a liquid onto a portion of the cover window, and the guide frame confines the liquid to the portion of the cover window, and the liquid is solidified, such that the cover window is directly attached to the display panel.

4. The OLED display device of claim 1 , wherein the flange is disposed between the cover window and the display panel.

5. The OLED display device of claim 1 , wherein the flange is bent from the side wall, so as to extend away from the display panel.

6. The OLED display device of claim 1 , wherein the side wall surrounds the display panel.

7. The OLED display device of claim 1 , wherein the guide frame comprises a relatively thicker portion of the cover window that surrounds a main body of the cover window.

8. The OLED display device of claim 7 , wherein the guide frame is spaced apart from the display panel.

9. A method for manufacturing an organic light emitting diode (OLED) display device, comprising:

attaching a guide frame to one side of a cover window;

coating an adhesive layer in liquid phase, on a portion of the cover window that is surrounded by the guide frame;

disposing a display panel on the adhesive layer;

solidifying the adhesive layer to attach the cover window to the display panel; and

disposing a buffering member on a surface of the display panel that faces away from the adhesive layer with a surface of the buffering member facing away from the display panel and exposed to an exterior of the OLED display device; and

attaching a flange of the guide frame to the cover window by adhesive tape with a side wall of the guide frame extending from the flange and facing an edge of the display panel, wherein the side wall is spaced apart from the display panel with a space between the side wall and the display panel.

10. The manufacturing method of claim 9 , wherein the adhesive layer is transparent, and an image is projected from the display panel, through the adhesive layer and the cover window, without passing though an air gap.

11. The OLED display of claim 1 , wherein the refractive index of the adhesive layer is closer to the refractive index of the cover window than to the refractive index of air.
