Abstract

A display device includes a cover member which is at least partially bent, a panel member arranged along a surface of the cover member, where the panel member displays an image, and a support member arranged on another surface of the panel member different from the surface of the panel member on which the cover member is arranged.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A method of manufacturing a display device, the method comprising:
 seating a support member on a second jig portion;   pressing the support member by a pressing portion of a first jig portion;   bending a portion of an end of the support member via linear movement of a linear movement portion of the second jig portion and the support member together; and   pressing, by a third jig portion, a bent portion of the end of the support member to bend the portion of the end of the support member again.   
     
     
         2 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 heating the bent portion of the end of the support member.   
     
     
         3 . The method of  claim 2 , wherein 
 at least one of an upper surface of the support member and a side surface of the support member is heated.   
     
     
         4 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein 
 a lower surface of the pressing portion and an upper surface of the linear movement portion are maintained to be spaced apart from each other with a gap when the support member is pressed by the first jig portion.   
     
     
         5 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein 
 a side surface of the third jig portion and a side surface of the linear movement portion are maintained to be spaced apart from each other with a gap when a side surface of the support member is pressed by the third jig portion.   
     
     
         6 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein 
 the pressing portion bends the portion of the end of the support member at a first angle, and   the third jig portion bends the portion of the end of the support member at a second angle different from the first angle.   
     
     
         7 . The method of  claim 6 , wherein 
 the second angle is greater than the first angle.   
     
     
         8 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein 
 the second jig portion pneumatically adsorbs the support member.   
     
     
         9 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 attaching the support member to a cover member and a panel member of the display device.   
     
     
         10 . The method of  claim 9 , wherein 
 at least a portion of the cover member is bent.   
     
     
         11 . The method of  claim 9 , wherein 
 the cover member includes a flat portion and a bent portion,   wherein the support member is sequentially attached to the panel member from the flat portion of the cover member to the bent portion of the cover member.   
     
     
         12 . The method of  claim 9 , further comprising:
 removing a film member of the support member.
