Abstract

A rollable display device includes a rollable display and a first protection film disposed on a first surface of the rollable display. The first protection film extends beyond a first display edge of the rollable display. The rollable display device further includes a second protection film disposed on a second surface of the rollable display facing the first surface of the rollable display. The second protection film extends beyond the first display edge of the rollable display. The rollable display device additionally includes a first adhesive layer disposed between the rollable display and the first protection film. The rollable display device further includes second adhesive layer disposed between the rollable display and the second protection film, and a first adhesion part disposed adjacent to the first display edge of the rollable display and between the first protection film and the second protection film.

Claims (18)

1. A rollable device comprising: a rollable display device; and a roller extending in a first direction and fixed to a first edge of the rollable display device, wherein the first edge extends in the first direction, wherein the rollable display device includes: a rollable display, wherein a first display edge of the rollable display is supported by the roller; a first protection film disposed on a first surface of the rollable display, wherein the first protection film extends beyond the first display edge of the rollable display; a second protection film disposed on a second surface of the rollable display facing the first surface of the rollable display, wherein the second protection film extends beyond the first display edge of the rollable display; a first adhesive layer disposed between the rollable display and the first protection film; a second adhesive layer disposed between the rollable display and the second protection film; and a first adhesion part disposed adjacent to the first display edge and between the first protection film and the second protection film, wherein the first protection film extends beyond a first edge of the first adhesive layer and a first edge of the second adhesive layer adjacent to the first display edge, and wherein the first adhesion part has a larger modulus of elasticity than that of the first adhesive layer and the second adhesive layer.

2. The rollable device of claim 1 , wherein

the rollable display further includes a second display edge opposite of the first display edge, and

the second display edge is unrolled away from the roller.

3. The rollable device of claim 1 , the first adhesion part extends parallel to the first display edge in the first direction.

4. The rollable device of claim 1 , wherein the first adhesion part extends beyond an edge of the first protection film and beyond an edge of the second protection film, and

the first adhesion part is in contact with the edge of the first protection film and the edge of the second protection film.

5. The rollable device of claim 4 , wherein the first adhesion part has a T-like shape from a cross-sectional view.

6. The rollable device of claim 1 , wherein

the first adhesion part includes an elastomer.

7. The rollable device of claim 1 , wherein

at least a portion of a surface of the first protection film in contact with the first adhesion part has protrusions and depressions in an alternating arrangement, and

at least a portion of a surface of the second protection film in contact with the first adhesion part has protrusions and depressions in an alternating arrangement.

8. The rollable device of claim 1 , Wherein

the first adhesive layer has a greater adhesion strength than that of the first adhesion part, and

the second adhesive layer has a greater adhesion strength than that of the first adhesion part.

9. The rollable device of claim 1 , wherein

the first adhesive layer and the second adhesive layer include a pressure sensitive adhesive.
