Patent number: 11744011Abstract: A wiring board on which electronic components are mountable includes a stretchable portion having stretchability and having a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface, and an interconnection wire electrically connected to the electronic components mounted on the wiring board. The stretchable portion includes first regions lined up in each of a first direction and a second direction, a second region including first portions and second portions, and a third region surrounded by the second region. The first regions overlap the electronic components. The first portion extends from one of two first regions neighboring each other in the first direction to the other thereof. The second portion extends from one of two first regions neighboring each other in the second direction to the other thereof. The second region has a lower modulus of elasticity than the first region. The interconnection wire overlaps the second region.Type: GrantFiled: October 31, 2019Date of Patent: August 29, 2023Assignee: DAI NIPPON PRINTING CO., LTD.Inventors: Kenichi Ogawa, Naoko Okimoto, Mitsutaka Nagae, Makiko Sakata, Toru Miyoshi

Patent number: 11612054Abstract: A substrate that is stretchable; wiring positioned on a first surface side of the substrate, the wiring having a meandering shape section including peaks and valleys aligned along a first direction that is one of planar directions of the first surface of the substrate; and a stretching control mechanism that controls extension and contraction of the substrate. The substrate has a component region and a wiring region adjacent to the component region. The component region includes a component-fixing region overlapping an electronic component mounted on the wiring board when viewed along the normal direction of the first surface of the substrate and a component-surrounding region positioned around the component-fixing region. The stretching control mechanism is positioned in the component-surrounding region and at least includes a stretching control part that spreads to the border between the component-surrounding region and the component-fixing region.Type: GrantFiled: October 12, 2018Date of Patent: March 21, 2023Assignees: DAI NIPPON PRINTING CO., LTD., THE UNIVERSITY OF TOKYOInventors: Naoko Okimoto, Kenichi Ogawa, Takao Someya

Patent number: 11395404Abstract: A wiring board includes a first substrate having stretchability, wiring disposed adjacent to a first surface of the first substrate and extending in a first direction, and a stopper disposed adjacent to the first surface or second surface of the first substrate. While stretch length of the wiring board is being increased in the first direction, electrical resistance of the wiring exhibits a first turning point at a first stretch length and tension applied to the wiring board exhibits a second turning point at a second stretch length smaller than the first stretch length. The first turning point is a point at which an increase in electrical resistance per unit stretch length changes. The second turning point is a point at which an increase in tension per unit stretch length changes.Type: GrantFiled: October 31, 2019Date of Patent: July 19, 2022Assignee: DAI NIPPON PRINTING CO., LTD.Inventors: Naoko Okimoto, Kenichi Ogawa, Mitsutaka Nagae, Makiko Sakata, Toru Miyoshi
