Abstract:
A device for varying the shape of a display panel includes: a variable case in which a flexible display panel is installed, the variable case having a variable shape that can be changed in order to change the shape of the display panel; and a driving unit for driving the variable case. The variable case includes: a first curved accommodation portion by which one end of the display panel is bent into a curved surface and fixed; a second curved accommodation portion by which the other end of the display panel is bent into a curved surface and fixed so that the one end and other end of the display panel form a single curved surface; and a hinge portion which rotatably connects the first curved accommodation portion and the second curved accommodation portion.
