PROTECTIVE FILM AND DISPLAY DEVICE INCLUDING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18206294 titled 'PROTECTIVE FILM AND DISPLAY DEVICE INCLUDING THE SAME
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a protective film and a display device that includes the protective film. The protective film consists of three layers: a first layer with a middle area, first and second side areas, and a corner area connecting the side areas; a second layer on top of the first layer, exposing at least a portion of the corner and side areas; and a third layer made of a shape memory alloy on top of the exposed portion of the first layer.
- The protective film is designed to be used in display devices to provide protection.
- The first layer of the film has a specific shape with side areas and a corner area.
- The second layer is placed on top of the first layer and exposes parts of the corner and side areas.
- The third layer, made of a shape memory alloy, is applied on the exposed areas of the first layer.
- The shape memory alloy allows the film to have shape memory properties, meaning it can return to its original shape after being deformed.
Potential Applications
- Display devices, such as smartphones, tablets, or televisions, could benefit from this protective film.
- The film could be used in various industries where displays need protection, such as automotive, aerospace, or medical.
Problems Solved
- The protective film helps to prevent damage to display devices, such as scratches or cracks.
- The shape memory alloy layer allows the film to return to its original shape, providing long-lasting protection.
Benefits
- The protective film offers enhanced protection for display devices.
- The shape memory alloy layer ensures the film maintains its original shape, increasing its durability.
- The film can be easily applied to different types of display devices.
