DISPLAY DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18396033 titled 'DISPLAY DEVICE

The abstract describes a display device with a unique cover panel layer design that includes a light-blocking layer, a cushion layer, a heat sink layer, and a release film layer.

  • The display device consists of a first area, a bending area, and a second area.
  • A display panel is located in the first area, the bending area, and the second area.
  • The cover panel layer is positioned on the surface of the display panel.
  • The cover panel layer includes a light-blocking layer in the first and second areas, a cushion layer on top of the light-blocking layer, a heat sink layer on the cushion layer, and a release film layer between the cushion layer and the heat sink layer in the first area only.

Potential Applications: - This technology could be used in flexible display devices such as smartphones, tablets, and wearable devices. - It may also find applications in automotive displays and other curved screen devices.

Problems Solved: - The design of the cover panel layer helps to improve heat dissipation and prevent light leakage in the display device. - The release film layer provides flexibility in the first area while maintaining rigidity in the second area.

Benefits: - Enhanced heat dissipation capabilities. - Improved display quality with reduced light leakage. - Increased durability and flexibility in the bending area.

Commercial Applications: Flexible display devices for consumer electronics, automotive displays, curved screen devices for various industries.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does the unique cover panel layer design improve the performance of the display device? 2. What are the specific advantages of the release film layer in the first area of the display device?


Original Abstract Submitted

A display device includes a first area, a bending area, and a second area disposed between the first area and the bending area, a display panel disposed in the first area, the bending area, and the second area, and a cover panel layer disposed on a surface of the display panel. The cover panel layer includes a light-blocking layer disposed on the surface of the display panel in the first area and the second area, a cushion layer disposed on the light-blocking layer in the first area and the second area, a heat sink layer disposed on the cushion layer in the first area and the second area, and a release film layer disposed between the cushion layer and the heat sink layer in the first area but not in the second area.
