Patent number: 8665412Abstract: A display device which can ensure sufficient adhesive strength between each pair of substrates of a liquid crystal display panel and a sealing material includes: a first substrate having a predetermined integrated circuit; a second substrate on one surface of the first substrate in an overlapping manner; and an adhesive material between the first substrate and the second substrate that has an annular planar shape. The adhesive material adheres the first substrate and the second substrate, wherein an outer periphery of the adhesive material includes a zone which includes a plurality of first portions passing substantially the same position as an outer periphery of the surface of the first substrate and a plurality of second portions each connected with the two neighboring first portions and having a center portion thereof in a peripheral direction retracted toward an inner peripheral side of the adhesive material.Type: GrantFiled: April 23, 2013Date of Patent: March 4, 2014Assignees: Japan Display Inc., Panasonic Liquid Crystal Display Co., Ltd.Inventors: Aki Tsuchiya, Takashi Yamamoto, Akira Ishii, Naoki Kikuchi, Yoshihiro Arai

Patent number: 8089602Abstract: The generation of bubbles in a liquid crystal material of a liquid crystal display panel and the generation of color irregularities when the liquid crystal display panel is pushed can be reduced. In a display device having a liquid crystal display panel in which a liquid crystal material is filled between a first substrate and a second substrate, the second substrate forms, on a surface of an insulation substrate which faces the first substrate, first columnar members, second columnar members and third columnar members which differ from each other in a distance from the surface of the insulation substrate to a top portion of each columnar member.Type: GrantFiled: February 12, 2009Date of Patent: January 3, 2012Assignees: Hitachi Displays, Ltd., Panasonic Liquid Crystal Display Co., Ltd.Inventors: Takashi Yamamoto, Yoshihiro Arai, Aki Tsuchiya, Naoki Kikuchi

Patent number: 7929105Abstract: To prevent inconsistency in images and support columns from collapsing when pressure is applied from outside in the case where liquid crystal is sealed in under negative pressure in order to prevent impact bubbles from being created in the liquid crystal display device in accordance with a liquid crystal dropping and sealing method. The distance between a TFT substrate 10 and a facing substrate 20 is set using first support columns 30, while second support columns 40 are located within contact holes 50 and do not make contact with the TFT substrate 10. When pressure is applied from outside, the second support columns 40 make contact with the side wall or the like of the contact holes 50 created in the TFT substrate 10, so that the repulsive force of the second support columns 40 prevents the distance between the TFT substrate 10 and the facing substrate 20 from becoming too small.Type: GrantFiled: September 9, 2008Date of Patent: April 19, 2011Assignee: Hitachi Displays, Ltd.Inventors: Takashi Yamamoto, Akira Ishii, Yoshihiro Arai, Aki Tsuchiya
