Claim 9:
10. A display device comprising:
a display panel including a first area and a second area, which is disposed on a first side, in a first direction, of the first area; and
a support module disposed on a first surface of the display panel,
wherein
the support module includes a support plate and a plurality of joints, wherein the support plate is disposed to overlap with the first and second areas, includes lattice patterns, and extends in the first direction and a second direction crossing the first direction, wherein the plurality of joints are integrally formed with the support plate and protrude from the support plate in a third direction substantially perpendicular to the first and second directions, wherein the plurality of joints overlap with the second area, extend in the second direction, and are spaced apart from one another in the first direction,
wherein the lattice patterns of the support plate are disposed between the plurality of joints,
wherein the joints have top surfaces and bottom surfaces, wherein the top surface are interfaces between the support plate and the plurality of joints, and the bottom surfaces are opposite to the top surfaces in the third direction, and
wherein a width, in the first direction, of the top surfaces is less than a width, in the first direction, of the bottom surfaces.
