Flexible display extendable assembly
First Claim
1. An extendable assembly, comprising:
- a slideable display guide integrated in a first housing part of an extendable electronic device that includes a flexible display; and
an extendable mechanism coupled in a second housing part of the extendable electronic device and to the slideable display guide, the first and second housing parts of the extendable electronic device configured to slide-engage relative to each other, the extendable mechanism configured to extend as the first and second housing parts slide apart relative to each other, and the extendable mechanism further configured to retract as the first and second housing parts slide together relative to each other, a first section of the flexible display configured to retract into the first housing part, the first section of the flexible display being flat and parallel to a second section of the flexible display when the first and second housing parts slide together relative to each other into a closed position,wherein the extendable mechanism comprises one or more extendable scissor mechanisms configured to extend in both of the first and second housing parts of the extendable electronic device when the first and second housing parts slide apart relative to each other.

Abstract
In embodiments of a flexible display extendible assembly, an extendible assembly includes a slideable display guide integrated in a first housing part of an extendible electronic device. The extendible electronic device includes a flexible display that slide-engages into the first housing part of the extendible electronic device. The extendible assembly includes an extendible mechanism that is coupled in a second housing part of the extendible electronic device and to the slideable display guide. The first and second housing parts of the extendible electronic device slide-engage relative to each other. The extendible mechanism is implemented to extend as the first and second housing parts slide apart relative to each other, and also to retract as the first and second housing parts slide together relative to each other.
