Abstract

A display apparatus includes a display area, a non-display area surrounding the display area, and a bending area formed in at least one side of the non-display area. The display apparatus includes a first glass substrate provided in the display area, a second glass substrate provided in the non-display area, and a flexible substrate provided to overlap the bending area.

Claims (25)

1. A display apparatus comprising a display area, a non-display area surrounding the display area, and a bending area formed in at least one side of the non-display area, the display apparatus comprising:

a first glass substrate provided in the display area;

a second glass substrate provided in the non-display area; and

a flexible substrate provided to overlap the bending area.

2. The display apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the first glass substrate includes a first etching surface provided to overlap the bending area.

3. The display apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the second glass substrate includes a second etching surface provided to overlap the bending area.

4. The display apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the flexible substrate includes a material having etching resistance for a glass etching solution.

5. The display apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the flexible substrate includes at least one of silicone based organic matter, urethane, polyimide and photo acryl.

6. The display apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the flexible substrate has a thickness of 10 um or less.

7. The display apparatus of claim 1 , further comprising a link line portion formed at an upper portion of the flexible substrate.

8. The display apparatus of claim 1 , further comprising an elastic member arranged below the flexible substrate.

9. The display apparatus of claim 5 , wherein the elastic member has an elongation rate of 100% or more.

10. The display apparatus of claim 1 ,

wherein the first glass substrate includes a first flat surface overlapped with the display area and a first rear surface facing the first flat surface, the second glass substrate includes a second rear surface spaced apart from the first rear surface and arranged to face the first rear surface, and

the display apparatus further comprises an adhesive member fixing the first rear surface to the second rear surface by contacting each of the first rear surface and the second rear surface.

11. A display apparatus comprising a hole area, a bezel area surrounding the hole area, and a display area surrounding the bezel area, the display apparatus comprising:

a base substrate overlapped with the hole area, the bezel area and the display area;

a thin film transistor provided on the base substrate and overlapped with the display area;

a light emitting diode provided on the thin film transistor and electrically connected with the thin film transistor;

an encapsulation portion covering the light emitting diode; and

an optical module arranged to overlap the hole area and arranged below the base substrate.

12. The display apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the base substrate is a transparent glass substrate.

13. The display apparatus of claim 11 , further comprising an optical module mount in which the optical module is packaged.

14. The display apparatus of claim 11 , further comprising a bending area arranged at one side of the display area, wherein the base substrate includes a first etching surface overlapped with the bending area.

15. The display apparatus of claim 11 , further comprising a cover window arranged to face the base substrate and arranged on the light emitting diode.
