Patent number: 11425826Abstract: A tiled display having pixels arranged in rows and columns, and including first and second tiles. The tiles comprise a substrate carrying a matrix of pixels arranged at a pixel pitch. The substrates comprise an edge extending between opposing faces in a depth direction. The substrate edges have a complementary shape, and face one another to establish a seam. The pixel pitch is maintained across the seam. Pixels of the second tile are not interposed between pixels of the first tile. The complementary shape includes a segment of the seam being oblique to the pixel rows, or the substrate edge of the first tile profiled in the depth direction whereby at least a section of the edge is non-perpendicular to the faces. The tiled display can maintain the pixel pitch at the seams at high resolutions (e.g., pixel pitch less than 0.5 mm).Type: GrantFiled: July 5, 2018Date of Patent: August 23, 2022Assignee: Corning IncorporatedInventors: Douglas Edward Brackley, Alexander Lee Cuno, Scott Winfield Deming, Sean Matthew Garner, Gregory Scott Glaesemann, Garrett Andrew Piech

Publication number: 20210402644Abstract: A method of manufacturing a honeycomb extrusion die. The die includes a feed hole plate and a pin assembly comprising pins extending feed hole plate. One or more of the pins includes a head including an alignment surface, flow surfaces, a contact surface, and a taper located between the alignment surface and the contact surface. The pins are adhered to the output surface of the feed hole plate at their respective contact surfaces. A tail of each pin is connected to the head and extends away from the feed hole plate. The alignment surfaces of adjacent pins contact each other, such that the tails of adjacent pins are spaced apart to at least partially define discharge slots. The flow surfaces of adjacent pins are spaced apart to at least partially define channels to enable flow from the feed holes to exit the honeycomb extrusion die through the discharge slots.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 13, 2021Publication date: December 30, 2021Inventors: Scott Winfield Deming, John Christopher Thomas, Kevin Lee Wasson
