Abstract

The disclosure provides an electronic device including a frame and a transparent display device. The transparent display device is at least partially disposed in the frame, and includes a display panel and a driving element. The display panel includes a display area, a non-display area, and a plurality of pixels. The non-display area is adjacent to the display area. The plurality of pixels are disposed in the display area. A difference between a transmittance of the display area and a transmittance of the non-display area is less than 30% of the transmittance of the display area. The driving element is electrically connected to the plurality of the pixels, wherein when the transparent display device is moved to a state, the display panel is at least partially exposed outside the frame, and the driving element is hidden inside the frame.

Claims (18)

1. An electronic device, comprising:

a frame; and

a transparent display device, at least partially disposed in the frame, and comprising:

a display panel comprising a display area, a non-display area adjacent to the display area, and a plurality of pixels disposed in the display area, wherein a difference between a transmittance of the display area and a transmittance of the non-display area is less than 30% of the transmittance of the display area; and

a driving element electrically connected to the plurality of the pixels,

wherein when the transparent display device is moved to a state, the display panel is at least partially exposed outside the frame, and the driving element is hidden inside the frame.

2. The electronic device according to claim 1 , further comprising a driving mechanism disposed in the frame and the transparent display device is disposed on the driving mechanism.

3. The electronic device according to claim 2 , wherein the driving mechanism is configured to move the transparent display device.

4. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the display panel is hidden inside the frame in another state.

5. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the display area is partially overlapped with the frame.

6. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the non-display area is partially overlapped with the frame.

7. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the driving element comprises a data driving element and a gate driving element.

8. The electronic device according to claim 1 , where the driving element comprises a driving carrier board and a connecting element.

9. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the display panel comprises a substrate, a display element and a protection layer.

10. The electronic device according to claim 1 , further comprising a carrier overlapped with the display panel.

11. The electronic device according to claim 1 , further comprising a data connection line and a scan connection line, the data connection line and the scan connection line being electrically connected to the driving element, wherein the data connection line and the scan connection line are overlapped with the frame.

12. The electronic device according to claim 11 , wherein the data connection line is at least partially overlapped with the scan connection line.

13. The electronic device according to claim 1 , further comprising a carrier, wherein an area of the display panel is smaller than or equal to an area of the carrier.
