Patent number: 10303003Abstract: A method of manufacturing a liquid crystal display device including a TFT substrate with display and peripheral regions. The display region has pixels each having a pixel electrode and a TFT. A counter substrate opposes the TFT substrate and has a color filter formed at a position corresponding to a position at which the pixel electrode is formed above the TFT substrate. The method includes coating, outside of the display region of the TFT substrate, a second alignment film in the shape of a frame, and coating, in the display region, a first alignment film that dries more slowly than the second alignment film. The first and second alignment films are in contact, and the second alignment film is thicker than the first alignment film.Type: GrantFiled: February 12, 2018Date of Patent: May 28, 2019Assignees: Japan Display Inc., Panasonic Liquid Crystal Display Co., Ltd.Inventors: Tomoyuki Shiromoto, Toshirou Iwata, Rai Yang, Shinichi Soto

Patent number: 8514356Abstract: In a liquid crystal display device small in the size and having a narrow frame, an alignment film can be coated by ink jet printing, by coating a rapidly drying peripheral alignment film 109 in the shape of a frame to a TFT substrate 100 having a display region having pixel electrode 107 and a peripheral region thereof by ink jet printing, and then coating a display region alignment film 108 drying slower but excellent in the leveling effect by ink jet printing. While the display region alignment film 108 dries slowly, since the peripheral alignment film 109 formed to the periphery functions as a stopper, the shape of the alignment film can be defined accurately, thereby enabling to prevent lowering of the adhesion of the seal member 20 under the effect of the alignment film. This can be applied also on the side of the counter substrate 200.Type: GrantFiled: January 11, 2011Date of Patent: August 20, 2013Assignees: Hitachi Displays, Ltd., Panasonic Liquid Crystal Display Co., Ltd.Inventors: Tomoyuki Shiromoto, Toshirou Iwata, Rai Yang, Shinichi Soto

Publication number: 20110292332Abstract: The present invention prevents an unrubbed portion caused by asperities formed on a surface of an alignment layer of a TFT substrate or a counter substrate. A TFT substrate is disposed on a rubbing stage and a projecting portion is formed on a surface of the TFT substrate by TFT wiring. The projecting portion on the surface causes an unrubbed portion, that is, a rubbing shadow particularly at the downstream of rubbing. In a rubbing step, two rubbing rollers that rotate in different directions are provided and the TFT substrate is rubbed in contact with the two rubbing rollers that rotate in different directions, which eliminates the influence of the rubbing shadow. Thus light leakage is prevented in black display.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 26, 2011Publication date: December 1, 2011Inventors: Rai YANG, Toshiro Iwata, Shinichi Soto, Tomoyuki Shiromoto, Shunsuke Yuge
