  • Patent number: 6008784
    Abstract: An electronic display includes a plurality of electronically controlled display elements arranged to form a face which is curved around a horizontal axis. The display elements are mounted on display sections which are aligned along a common axis and fastened side-by-side to a chassis to create a display having a desired length. Each display section includes a frame having semi-circular sides which define a radius around the axis and a flexible printed circuit board which is curved around the radius and fastened to the frame. The display elements are preferably light emitting diodes which are fabricated in arrays and mounted to the printed circuit board with sockets. The light emitting diodes are electrically coupled through the printed circuit board to a display driver such as a programmable controller which selectively illuminates the display elements to form images on the curved face of the display.
