Patent number: 6628351Abstract: In liquid crystal display apparatus comprising a liquid crystal display device and a flexible board with a pattern formed on one surface, the flexible board is bent approximately at the center in two via a bending section and the inner surfaces are hermetically fixed thus configuring a first pattern surface, associated parts, and a second pattern surface, contacts with the printed circuit board, at the rear of the first pattern surface. Via this configuration, the liquid crystal display apparatus can be configured using a flexible board having a single-sided pattern and assembly of the liquid crystal display device and the printed circuit board can be facilitated.Type: GrantFiled: October 20, 2000Date of Patent: September 30, 2003Assignee: Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd.Inventors: Toshiyasu Kitamura, Hiroyuki Chihara, Shinichi Terao, Takefumi Ishida

Patent number: 6501019Abstract: An electromagnetic isolation apparatus for an electronic device such as a portable telephone is provided which includes first and second shield cases and elastic members such as rubber cushions. The first and second shield cases are disposed within a casing of the electronic device to surround at least part of both surfaces of a printed circuit board mounted within the electronic device. The elastic members are interposed between an inner wall of the casing of the electronic device and an outer surface of the first shield case and between the inner wall of the casing and an outer surface of the second shield case to produce elastic pressures urging the first and second shield cases into conductive engagement with the printed circuit board.Type: GrantFiled: November 8, 2001Date of Patent: December 31, 2002Assignee: Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd.Inventors: Noriyoshi Sato, Shinichi Terao
