  • Publication number: 20260235904
    Abstract: A liquid crystal display device includes a first transmissive polarizer, a second transmissive polarizer, a liquid crystal layer disposed between the first transmissive polarizer and the second transmissive polarizer, a reflective polarizer disposed on a side of the second transmissive polarizer opposite to a liquid-crystal-layer side closer to the liquid crystal layer, and a luminous layer disposed on a side of the reflective polarizer opposite to the liquid-crystal-layer side. A reflection axis of the reflective polarizer is not parallel to either an absorption axis or a transmission axis of the second transmissive polarizer as viewed in a direction perpendicular to the second transmissive polarizer.

  • Patent number: 12603238
    Abstract: An electronic device includes a first plate spring, a second plate spring and a substrate. The first plate spring extends in a first direction from a fixed end. The second plate spring branches off from the first plate spring and extends in the first direction beyond a tip of the first plate spring in the first direction. The substrate has an electrode that contacts the second plate spring accompanied by the first plate spring being pushed by a pushbutton switch being pushed. The substrate does not contact the first plate spring. The second plate spring has a tip part. In a plan view in a push direction of the switch, the tip part extends, at a point beyond the tip of the first plate spring, in a second direction different from the first direction to overlap the substrate. The tip part contacts the electrode by the switch being pushed.

  • Patent number: 12585230
    Abstract: A timepiece module includes a digital display screen, an antenna device and a metallic component. The antenna device includes an antenna pattern relevant to communication and an antenna component connected to and extending from the antenna pattern. In a plan view, the antenna pattern has a curved shape and overlaps the digital display screen. The antenna device is disposed such that either one side or other side on a virtual line does not overlap the metallic component. The virtual line is an extending direction in which the antenna component, which extends from the antenna pattern, extends.
