Foldable electronic device and a flexible display device
First Claim
1. An electronic device comprising:
- at least two parts foldable in relation to each other between a first position and a second position around a rotation axis,a flexible display device, which extends over at least said two said foldable parts, covering them either entirely or partly, wherein said flexible display device comprises;
a folded position, to which said flexible display device settles in said first position, and in which said flexible display device folds around a first direction, wherein said first direction is parallel in relation to said rotation axis; and
a curved position, to which said flexible display device settles in said second position, and in which said flexible display device curves around a second direction, wherein said second direction is transverse in relation to said rotation axis, wherein said curved position is an open position of said flexible display device to which said flexible display device tends to move and in which said flexible display device tends to remain when said electronic device is in said second position.

Abstract
An electronic device, which comprises: at least two parts foldable in relation to each other, which can be turned into a first position and into a second position around a rotation axis; and a flexible display device, which extends over at least two foldable parts, covering them either entirely or partly. The flexible display device comprises: a folded position, to which the display device settles in the first position, and in which it folds around a first direction, which is parallel in relation to the rotation axis; and a curved position, to which the display device settles in the second position, and in which it curves around a second direction, which is transverse in relation to the rotation axis. A flexible display device can also be used with an electronic device.

16. A flexible display device for an electronic device comprising:
-
a folded closed position, to which said flexible display device folds around a first direction, wherein said first direction is parallel in relation to a rotational axis of the electronic device when said electronic device is in a first position, and a curved open position, to which said flexible display device curves around a second direction, wherein said second direction is transverse in relation to said rotation axis, wherein said curved open position is an open position of said flexible display device to which said flexible display device tends to move and in which said flexible display device tends to remain when said electronic device is in a second position. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
