  • Publication number: 20250225949
    Abstract: The present invention is a cholesterol liquid crystal display and driving method thereof. The cholesterol liquid crystal display includes a display panel and a liquid crystal driving unit. The display panel is used to display images composed of a row of imaging drive pixels and multiple rows of non-imaging drive pixels. The liquid crystal driving unit simultaneously drives the display panel to show images by applying a first driving voltage to multiple non-imaging drive pixels and a second driving voltage to imaging drive pixels. The first driving voltage has a quantity of the first pulse waves within a unit time, and the second driving voltage has a quantity of the second pulse waves within the unit time. The quantity of the first pulse waves is at least 5 times greater than the quantity of the second pulse waves, and the higher the multiple, the better the display effect.

  • Patent number: 12334031
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method for driving a cholesteric liquid crystal display device. The method includes the following steps: utilizing a driving circuit section to sequentially activate each scanning electrode within a display panel; utilizing the driving circuit section to apply first alternating-current (AC) voltage pulses to pixel circuits on an activated scanning electrode during a first stage within a pulse-width modulation (PWM) scanning procedure of an activated scanning electrode; and utilizing the driving circuit section to apply second AC voltage pulses to the pixel circuits on the activated scanning electrode during a second stage of the PWM scanning procedure. A first voltage amplitude and a first period of the first AC voltage pulses are different from a second voltage amplitude and a second period of the second AC voltage pulses, respectively.

  • Patent number: 12324514
    Abstract: A three-section slide rail device includes an outer section, a middle section and an inner section. An outer rail of the outer section has a sliding surface and an anti-retraction block and a releasing block formed on the sliding surface. A middle rail of the middle section is slidably disposed on the outer rail. An anti-retraction member and a driven member are pivotably mounted on an end of the middle rail. An inner rail of the inner section is slidably disposed on the middle rail, and has an abutment plate and a driving plate formed on an inner surface of the inner rail. The abutment plate abuts upwardly against the anti-retraction member, and is moved to disengage from the anti-retraction member to permit abutment of the anti-retraction member against the anti-retraction block so as to prevent retraction movement of the middle section relative to the outer section.

  • Patent number: 12282363
    Abstract: A portable information handling system supports a flexible OLED display film over housing portions rotationally coupled by a hinge by folding the OLED display film over the hinge. Hinge brackets that couple to the housing portions each have a helical member that extends into an associated helical guide of the hinge main body. Hinge bracket rotation translates through the helical guides for synchronized housing rotation. The hinge main body has first and second circular portions extending along its length to define first and second rotation axes about which the hinge brackets pivot so that the display film has space to fold in the closed position.

  • Patent number: 12216359
    Abstract: A spliced reflective display includes multiple display devices, a front light guide plate, and at least one light source. Among the multiple display devices, one display device is joined side-by-side with another to form an adjacent joint. The front light guide plate is affixed above the multiple display devices and is close to the display side. It has a top surface near the display side and includes an optical structure. The at least one light source is positioned at the side of the front light guide plate, and light therefrom reflects off the top surface of the front light guide plate onto the multiple display devices, and the reflected light from the display devices forms image light that is directed towards the display side to produce an image. The optical structure directs the path of the image light to obscure the adjacent joint from being visible on the display side.
