Flexible display panel and display apparatus including the flexible display panel
A flexible display panel including: a flexible substrate including a first region, second regions that extend from the first region and that have a curved surface, and a third region folded towards the second regions; a first display region in the first region of the flexible substrate; a second display region in the second regions of the flexible substrate; a plurality of non-display regions outside the first display region or the second display regions, wherein at least one of the plurality of non-display regions is in the third region of the flexible substrate; and an encapsulation member for encapsulating the first display region and the second display regions.
1. A display apparatus comprising:
a flexible display panel comprising:
a first display region;
a second display region extending from the first display region and facing a different direction from the first display region;
a support member for maintaining a shape of the flexible display panel;
an encapsulation thin layer on the flexible display panel;
a touch layer on the encapsulation thin layer and comprising touch regions generally corresponding to the first display region and the second display region, and
at least one organic light-emitting device, wherein the at least one organic light-emitting device is located in the first display region or the second display region,
wherein at least one of the first display region and the second display region is configured to display an image when the second display region faces a different direction from the first display region.
2. The display apparatus of claim 1 , further comprising a transparent protection window located on the touch layer generally corresponding to the first display region and the second display region of the flexible display panel.
3. The display apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the second display region has a curved surface.
4. The display apparatus of claim 3 , wherein the curved surface of the second display region is configured to display an image while the curved surface remains curved.
5. The display apparatus of claim 1 , wherein each of the first display region and the second display region are configured to display an image when the second display region faces a different direction from the first display region.
6. The display apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the encapsulation thin layer entirely covers the first display region and the second display region.
