Abstract: An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a flexible touchscreen layer movable between an open state and a closed state and having a periphery located at a first distance from a first sidewall in the closed state, and located at a second distance longer than the first distance from the first sidewall in the open state. When the flexible touchscreen layer is moved from the open state to the closed state, at least part of the bendable portion may be led out from a recess to construct substantially a plane. When the flexible touchscreen layer is moved from the closed state to the open state, at least part of the bendable portion may be led into the recess to expose at least one of an inner structure having various modules disposed thereon or electronic component for access and/or use.

Abstract: An electronic device may include an assembly that enables varying a visible portion of a display by extending and retracting a bendable portion of the display. The extending and retracting of the bendable display is facilitated by a first assembly on which a substantially planar visible portion of the display is disposed and a second assembly slidably attached to the first assembly. A space is defined by the first and second assemblies in which a bent portion of the display is housed. When the first assembly is extended (e.g., opened) with respect to the second assembly, at least a portion of the bent portion of the display is extended so as to be visible, and when the first assembly is closed (e.g., retracted) with respect to the second assembly, the extended bent portion of the display is retracted into the space between the first assembly and the second assembly, and is no longer visible. Various constructions of the first and second assemblies and corresponding structures are provided.
