Claim Text:
1. A flexible display device comprising: a flexible display panel; a plurality of supports on a first outer surface of the flexible display panel, the supports being spaced apart from each other; and an actuator on the first outer surface of the flexible display panel, the actuator being between the supports, the actuator including an electroactive polymer layer, and a first electrode layer and a second electrode layer that are respectively arranged on an upper surface and a lower surface of the electroactive polymer layer, and the actuator having a property such that when a voltage is applied to the first electrode layer and the second electrode layer, an area of the electroactive polymer layer is changed, the plurality of supports and the actuator being located with respect to each other on the first outer surface of the flexible display panel such that the electroactive polymer layer is contactable with side walls of the supports under a condition that the voltage is applied to the first electrode layer and the second electrode layer.
