Abstract

A flexible display device is disclosed. The flexible display device includes a flexible substrate, a display structure, a protective structure and an adhesive. The display structure is disposed on the flexible substrate. The protective structure is disposed on the display structure and forms a first accommodating space. The adhesive is disposed in the first accommodating space.

Claims (20)

1. A flexible display device, comprising:

a flexible substrate;

a display structure disposed on the flexible substrate;

a protective structure disposed on the display structure and forming a first accommodating space;

a housing accommodating the flexible substrate, the display structure and the protective structure, wherein a side surface of the protective structure is recessed to form the first accommodating space, and a portion of the housing is disposed in the first accommodating space; and

an adhesive disposed in the first accommodating space,

wherein a side profile of the protective structure, a side profile of the display structure, and a side profile of flexible substrate are uneven.

2. The flexible display device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the portion of the housing is connected with the protective structure through the adhesive.

3. The flexible display device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a ratio of a thickness of the first accommodating space to a thickness of the protective structure is greater than or equal to 0.3 and less than or equal to 1.

4. The flexible display device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the protective structure comprises a multi-layered structure.

5. The flexible display device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the flexible substrate comprises a bending portion, and the first accommodating space does not overlap the bending portion in a normal direction of the flexible substrate.

6. The flexible display device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the flexible substrate comprises a bending portion, and the first accommodating space overlaps the bending portion in a normal direction of the flexible substrate.

7. The flexible display device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the flexible display device is a rollable display device.

8. The flexible display device as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the flexible display device has an expanding direction, and the first accommodating space extends along a direction perpendicular to the expanding direction in a top-view.

9. The flexible display device as claimed in claim 8 , wherein the protective structure further comprises a second accommodating space extending along the expanding direction in the top-view, and a first width of the first accommodating space is different from a second width of the second accommodating space.

10. The flexible display device as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the first width is greater than the second width.

11. The flexible display device as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the first width is greater than or equal to 50 um and less than or equal to 500 um in a cross-sectional view.

12. The flexible display device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a length of a side profile of the flexible display device is greater than a thickness of the flexible display device in a cross-sectional view.

13. The flexible display device as claimed in claim 12 , wherein a ratio of the length of the side profile to the thickness of the flexible display device is greater than or equal to 1.1 and less than 6.

14. The flexible display device as claimed in claim 13 , wherein a ratio of the length of the side profile to the thickness of the flexible display device is greater than or equal to 1.1 and less than 2.5.
