ABSTRACT:
An electronic device includes a flexible display panel having an intermediate extended display section that interconnects a normal display end section fitted in a panel-mounting frame movable along an outer surface of a housing, and a coupling end section disposed in the housing, that extends through a vertical slot in the housing, and that is guided around a guide roller. The normal display end section of the display panel serves as a normal display area when the panel-mounting frame is positioned at a normal position by a positioning unit. The normal display end section and the intermediate extended display section serve as an enlarged display area when the panel-mounting frame is positioned at an extended position. A biasing unit biases the intermediate extended display section to move into the housing.
