Abstract

An electronic device improves an impact-resistance characteristic of an organic light emitting diode (OLED) display. The electronic device includes an organic light emitting diode (OLED) display including a panel assembly for forming an organic light emitting element, and a housing including a housing main body for receiving the organic light emitting diode (OLED) display. The housing includes a housing main body including a first space for receiving the panel assembly and a second space for receiving a printed circuit board, an upper cover, and a lower cover. The housing main body includes a bottom formed to distinguish a first space and a second space in the housing, and also includes a bent unit on an edge, and a side wall in which the bent unit is buried to be combined with the edge of the bottom.

Claims (19)

1. An electronic device comprising:

an organic light emitting diode (OLED) display comprising a panel assembly for forming an organic light emitting element; and

a housing comprising a housing main body for receiving the organic light emitting diode (OLED) display, wherein the housing main body comprises:

a bottom formed to distinguish a first space and a second space in the housing, and comprising a bent unit on an edge; and

a side wall in which the bent unit is buried to be combined with the edge of the bottom.

2. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein

the bottom is formed with a metal material, and the side wall is formed with a reinforced resin comprising a mixture of glass fibers and synthetic resin.

3. The electronic device of claim 2 , wherein

the bottom is formed with at least one of magnesium, a magnesium alloy, stainless steel, and cold-rolled steel.

4. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein

the bent unit has a hook shape that is convex on one side.

5. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein

the panel assembly is received in a first space of the housing, and

the side wall comprises a first side wall unit extended in the first space and a second side wall unit extended in the second space.

6. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the electronic device further comprises:

a bezel for receiving the panel assembly, and

wherein the bezel is configured to be received in the first space of the housing.

7. The electronic device of claim 6 , wherein the electronic device further comprises:

a buffer member provided between the panel assembly and the bezel.
