Device comprising a multilayer structure and rollers
First Claim
1. An electronic device comprising:
- a flexible display having a first portion and a second portion;
a first roller movable in a first plane; and
a second roller movable in a second plane parallel to the first plane;
wherein the first portion is adapted for being wound about the first roller, and the second portion is adapted for being wound about the second roller, arranged such that when the first roller and the second roller are moved apart, the first roller and the second roller rotate in the same direction to unwind the first portion and the second portion from the first roller and the second roller, respectively.

Abstract
The invention relates to a device comprising a multilayered structure with a first portion and a second portion wherein the first portion is conceived to be rolled about a first roller, said device comprising a second roller for receiving the second portion for at least partially counteracting the effects of mechanical strain induced in the multilayered structure upon said rolling. The first roller is rotated in a first direction, whereby the second roller is rotated in a second direction. Preferably, the diameters of the first roller and the second roller are equal. Alternatively, the edge portions A, B of the multilayer structure are suitably interconnected by stoppers for preventing creeping.
