Abstract
Disclosed is a three-dimensional (3D) multi-foldable device. The three-dimensional (3D) multi-foldable device includes at least four units, each unit including a center panel with two parallel edges and a pair of wing panels, the wing panels being rotatable by 180 degrees about the two parallel edges of their respective center panels, the parallel edges acting as rotation axes for the pair of wing panels. The rotation axes of the first and second units are perpendicular to the rotation axes of the third and fourth units. At least some portions of the pair of third wing panels are combined with the first and second wing panels at one side of the pairs of the first and second wing panels. At least some portions of the pair of the fourth wing panels are combined with the first and second wing panels at the other side of the pairs of the first and second wing panels.
