Patent number: 11031564Abstract: In a display device including a flexible display panel, the risk of disconnection of a wiring due to bending is reduced. A display panel includes a display function layer including display elements and a wiring on one major surface of a base material having flexibility. The display panel includes, on the one major surface of the base material, an organic-film-covered wiring area where the surface of the wiring is covered with an organic planarization film that is an organic insulating film in direct contact with the wiring. The display panel includes, in the plane thereof, a display area where the display elements are arranged and a component mounting area that is a peripheral area located outside the display area. As the organic-film-covered wiring area, a curved area is provided in the peripheral area.Type: GrantFiled: July 24, 2019Date of Patent: June 8, 2021Assignee: Japan Display Inc.Inventor: Masumi Nishimura

Patent number: 10833612Abstract: An electric working machine includes an inverter and a controller. The controller switches a current conduction pattern via the inverter and performs a PWM control of a conduction current to a brushless motor. The controller includes switching patterns as the current conduction pattern switched for every commutation timing. The switching patterns include different on and off states for different switching elements. The controller sequentially switches a switching pattern synchronously with a period of the PWM control, detects a rotational position of a brushless motor from a magnitude relation between inductances of the brushless motor produced by switching the switching pattern, and sets the commutation timing.Type: GrantFiled: March 14, 2019Date of Patent: November 10, 2020Assignee: MAKITA CORPORATIONInventors: Masumi Nishimura, Yoshiteru Ito
