  • Patent number: 10507321
    Abstract: In some examples, a medical device system a thin film including at least one electrically conductive track extending between at least one electrode and at least one electrical contact, a first and second polymer layer; wherein, at a portion of the thin film between the at least one electrode and the at least one electrical contact, the first polymer layer and second polymer layer surround the at least one electrically conductive track; and at least one discrete ceramic member located between the first and second polymer layers at a portion of the thin film between the at least one electrode and the at least one electrical contact, wherein the at least one discrete ceramic member does not surround the at least one conductive track, and wherein the at least one discrete ceramic member is configured to increase adhesion between the first polymer layer and second polymer layer.

  • Patent number: 8681487
    Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus (20) comprising a flexible display (23) with a front surface and a back surface, wherein the back surface is provided with an adhered layer of an elastic material (24) for dissipating external pressure applied to the front surface. The thickness of the elastic material is optimized to provide sufficient resistance to external pressure on one hand, and to ensure that the plane of a weakest layer of the display device substantially coincides with the neutral line. Connecting the display and the layer of elastic material (24) using an adhesive prevents small particles to enter an area between the layer (24) and the back surface of the display.

  • Patent number: 8493714
    Abstract: An electronic device is disclosed comprising a housing (1) and a retractable display (3) conceived to be alternated between an at least partially extended state and a retracted state, the device comprising a cleaning unit (6) integrated in the housing and being arranged for removing contamination from at least a front surface of the display. The flexible display (3) can be retracted by sliding the side members (4a, 4b, 4c, 5a, 5b, 5c) into the housing using, for example, a grip (7). Preferably, in the electronic device 10 the display is provided with edge members 8a, 8b for guiding the bar (6).

  • Patent number: 8488328
    Abstract: The invention relates to an arrangement 10 comprising a flexible carrier 6 having a front surface and a back surface; a component 2 adhered to the front surface of the flexible carrier, and a stiffener 8 extending at least partially over said front surface or said back surface for protecting at least a portion of the front surface or the back surface of the flexible carrier 6, wherein the stiffener 8 comprises a first region 8c extending over an area covered by the component 2 and a second region 8a, 8b extending over an area not covered by the component 2, the second region being more flexible than the first region.
