Light-emitting device
View Patent ↗A light-emitting device includes a strip-like high flexibility region and a strip-like low flexibility region arranged alternately in a direction. The high flexibility region includes a flexible light-emitting panel. The low flexibility region includes the light-emitting panel and a support panel having a lower flexibility than that of the light-emitting panel and overlapping with the light-emitting panel. It is preferable that the light-emitting panel include an external connection electrode and that a length in the direction of a low flexibility region A that overlaps with the external connection electrode be longer than a length in the direction of a low flexibility region B that is closest to the region A.
1. A light-emitting device comprising:
a flexible light-emitting panel;
a first support panel; and
a second support panel,
wherein the flexible light-emitting panel comprises a region capable of being bent outward so that a gap of the flexible light-emitting panel decreases as a distance from the region increases,
wherein the region is located between the first support panel and the second support panel,
wherein the region is capable of displaying an image in a state where the flexible light-emitting panel is folded, and
wherein each of the first support panel and the second support panel has a lower flexibility than a flexibility of the flexible light-emitting panel.
2. The light-emitting device according to claim 1 , wherein the flexible light-emitting panel comprises an electroluminescence element.
3. A light-emitting device comprising:
a flexible light-emitting panel;
a first support panel; and
a second support panel,
wherein the flexible light-emitting panel comprises a region capable of being bent outward with a curvature radius and a first flat region and a second flat region each connected to the region so that a distance between the first flat region and the second flat region is less than twice the curvature radius,
wherein the region is located between the first support panel and the second support panel,
wherein the region is capable of displaying an image in a state where the flexible light-emitting panel is folded, and
wherein each of the first support panel and the second support panel has a lower flexibility than a flexibility of the flexible light-emitting panel.
4. The light-emitting device according to claim 3 , wherein the flexible light-emitting panel comprises an electroluminescence element.
5. A light-emitting device comprising:
a flexible light-emitting panel;
a first support panel; and
a second support panel,
wherein the flexible light-emitting panel comprises a region capable of being bent outward with a curvature radius so that a gap of the flexible light-emitting panel decreases as a distance from the region increases,
wherein the region is located between the first support panel and the second support panel,
wherein the region is capable of displaying an image in a state where the flexible light-emitting panel is folded,
wherein each of the first support panel and the second support panel has a lower flexibility than a flexibility of the flexible light-emitting panel, and
wherein the curvature radius is greater than or equal to 1 mm and less than or equal to 150 mm.
6. The light-emitting device according to claim 5 , wherein the flexible light-emitting panel comprises an electroluminescence element.
7. A light-emitting device comprising:
a flexible light-emitting panel;
a first support panel; and
a second support panel,
wherein the flexible light-emitting panel comprises a region capable of being bent outward with a curvature radius and a first flat region and a second flat region each connected to the region so that a distance between the first flat region and the second flat region is less than twice the curvature radius,
wherein the region is located between the first support panel and the second support panel,
wherein the region is capable of displaying an image in a state where the flexible light-emitting panel is folded,
wherein each of the first support panel and the second support panel has a lower flexibility than a flexibility of the flexible light-emitting panel, and
wherein the curvature radius is greater than or equal to 1 mm and less than or equal to 150 mm.
8. The light-emitting device according to claim 7 , wherein the flexible light-emitting panel comprises an electroluminescence element.
