DISPLAY DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240306353 titled 'DISPLAY DEVICE
The patent application describes a display device with a unique cover panel layer design that includes multiple layers for various functions.
- The display device consists of a first area, a bending area, and a second area.
- A display panel is located in the first area, bending area, and second area.
- The cover panel layer is placed on the surface of the display panel and includes a light-blocking layer, a cushion layer, a heat sink layer, and a release film layer.
- The light-blocking layer is present in the first and second areas to prevent unwanted light transmission.
- The cushion layer provides support and protection for the display panel.
- The heat sink layer helps dissipate heat generated by the display panel.
- The release film layer is positioned between the cushion layer and the heat sink layer in the first area but not in the second area.
Potential Applications: - This technology could be used in smartphones, tablets, and other electronic devices with flexible displays. - It may find applications in automotive displays, wearable technology, and foldable devices.
Problems Solved: - Prevents light leakage in the display device. - Provides thermal management for the display panel. - Offers cushioning and protection for the display panel.
Benefits: - Improved display performance and longevity. - Enhanced durability and reliability of the device. - Better heat dissipation for prolonged use.
Commercial Applications: Flexible display devices with advanced cover panel layers could revolutionize the consumer electronics market by offering more durable and efficient devices for various applications.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the cover panel layer design improve the overall performance of the display device? 2. What are the potential cost implications of implementing this technology in mass-produced devices?
