1. An apparatus for manufacturing a flexible display device, the apparatus comprising:
- a support that has a curved portion at both sides of a flat portion and that forms a surface corresponding to an outer surface of an extended three-dimensional cover window, the support including;
an adsorption hole that forms a surface in an upper part to correspond to an outer surface of the cover window or forms a surface corresponding to the outer surface of the cover window in a lower portion; and
a negative pressure chamber that provides a negative pressure to the adsorption hole, the negative pressure chamber corresponding to the flat portionand a portion of the curved portion; and
a line contact body that attaches by a line contact at least one of an adhesive film, a touch panel, and a flexible display panel that are stacked at an inner surface of the cover window, wherein the absorption hole forms a surface in the upper part to correspond to the outer surface of the cover window; and
the line contact body includes;
an attachment member that has an end portion corresponding to an elongation direction of the cover window;
a variable length unit that is connected to the attachment member and that is installed in a rotation center; and
a motor that is connected to the variable length unit at the rotation center.

Abstract
A method of manufacturing a flexible display device includes a first step of providing a three-dimensional cover window having a flat portion, and a curved portion that is bent in a third direction intersecting a first direction of the flat portion while extending to a second direction intersecting the first direction at both sides of the first direction, and a second step of attaching by a line contact at least one of an adhesive film, a touch panel, and a flexible display panel that are stacked at an inner surface of the cover window.
