Abstract

Disclosed are folding type display apparatuses. The folding type display apparatus comprises a flexible display section, and a plurality of housings, which includes a first housing having a space formed therein, and second and third housings bendably connected to both ends of the first housing. The display section is fixed to the second and third housings, and in a closed state of the second and third housings, a folding portion of the display section is housed in the space formed by the first housing, while in an open state of the second and third housings away from each other, the display section becomes flat, and the first housing functions as a leg protruding from flat surfaces of the second and third housings, so that the second and third housings are fixed to each other and the folding portion of the display section is supported, by a holding member for connecting these housings.
