In some embodiments of the present application, in a case that the display device is in the first state, the first cover plate 30 is furthest away from the rotating shaft 21 while ensuring the normal function of other components in the display device, that is, the first distance d1 is the maximum distance between the first cover plate 30 and the rotating shaft 21. In the first state, the display module 40 is not wound on the rotating shaft 21. However, in other embodiments of the present application, in the first state, a part of the display module 40 may be wound on the rotating shaft 21, but the amount of the display module 40 wound on the rotating shaft 21 in the first state is minimal compared to other states.
In some embodiments of the present application, in the first state, the display module 40 may include a first non-display portion 42 and a second display portion 43, wherein the first display portion 42 is wound on the rotating shaft 21, and the second display portion 43 is disposed between the first non-display portion 42 and the first display portion 41, wherein the display surface of the second display portion 43 and the display surface of the first display portion 41 are located on different sides of the rotating shaft 21, respectively. That is, the display device can implement a multi-sided display function in both the first state and the second state.
