Patent attributes
The present invention provides a slim-bezel flexible display device and a manufacturing method thereof. A through hole is formed in a first base plate of a lower substrate in an area adjacent to an edge thereof. A conductive connection body is mounted in the through hole. The conductive connection body is connected to a circuit layout layer and a flexible connection circuit that is connected to a drive circuit board so as to have the drive circuit board and the circuit layout layer connected. Compared to the prior art, the present invention provides an arrangement that makes it not necessary for the side of the lower substrate associated with the circuit layout layer to provide an additional connection zone for connection with the flexible connection circuit so that an effective display zone of a flexible display device can be enlarged and a bezel area can be reduced. Further, the flexible connection circuit is completely arranged at one side of the lower substrate so that the flexible connection circuit curving around an edge of the lower substrate required in the prior art can be prevented thereby eliminating the issue of a lateral side space of the lower substrate being undesirably occupied, allowing further reduction of the bezel area for achieving slim-bezel displaying.
