  • Patent number: 8212972
    Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a display device where a display panel and a transparent cover which are pasted together can be separated from each other without breaking the liquid crystal display panel and the transparent cover. The present invention provides a display device having: a liquid crystal display panel having a liquid crystal layer sandwiched between a first substrate and a second substrate which is provided on the viewer side relative to the first substrate; a polarizing plate provided on the above described liquid crystal display panel on the above described viewer side; a viscous film pasted on the viewer side relative to the above described polarizing plate; and a transparent cover pasted on the viewer side relative to the above described viscous film, wherein the above described viscous film is made up of a multilayer body of gluing agents.

  • Patent number: 7570337
    Abstract: In a liquid crystal display device disposed with reflective regions and transmissive regions, two organic insulating films are formed on a connection terminal portion and radial non-uniformities are prevented from occurring when applying the upper organic insulating film. Pixel portions including transmissive regions and reflective regions are formed, and a second organic insulating film is formed between a metal layer that forms reflective electrodes and a transparent conductive film that forms pixel electrodes to planarize concavo-convexities in the reflective electrodes. In contact holes of a connection terminal portion, the inclination of a first organic resin film is made smooth to control the occurrence of radial non-uniformities occurring in the second organic insulating film.

  • Patent number: 4759612
    Abstract: A liquid crystal display device comprises a liquid crystal layer sandwiched between upper and lower electrode substrates subjected to aligning treatment. The liquid crystal layer includes a nematic liquid crystal added with a chiral material and has a 160.degree.-360.degree. twisted helical structure. A pair of polarizers are disposed adjacent to the electrode substrates with their polarization or absorption axes inclined by respective predetermined angles with respect to the aligning directions of the electrode substrates. At least one of the polarizers is formed by a color polarizer for compensating a wavelength dependence of transmittance (or the coloring due to birefringence) resulting from the anti-coincidence between the polarization or absorption axis of the polarizer and the aligning direction of the electrode substrate, i.e. an optical axis of liquid crystal molecules adjacent to the substrate, so that light emerging from the device becomes approximately achromatic or colorless.

  • Patent number: 4756604
    Abstract: There is disclosed a liquid crystal display device having very uniform contrast ratio for use with such a projector as an overhead projector. The liquid crystal display device comprises a liquid crystal display cell having a thin film of liquid crystal material sandwiched between transparent electrodes formed on opposing transparent substrates and a Fresnel collimating lens disposed before the cell in the direction of light traveling through the cell and for collimating the light in parallel light beams from a condenser lens in the projector.
