Abstract

The present invention relates to a light guide plate comprising a plurality of cutting areas, the light guide plate capable of solving the problem of brightness degradation between the plurality of cutting areas by attaching a predetermined member, which is reactive to light, to at least one of the inner sides of the cutting areas. Particularly, the present invention allows the light guide plate to evenly transmit light generated from a light source to the forward side part, by selecting and attaching, to the respective inner side of the plurality of cutting areas, a first member for resolving brightness degradation of the light or a second member for resolving brightness degradation of the light and offsetting excessively reflected light. The present invention relates to the light guide plate comprising at least one cutting area, the light guide plate maintaining the clarity of a display screen by treating (for example, etching or attaching a diffuser sheet) at least one of the inner sides through which light transmitted from a light-emitting part provided on the outer side of the light guide plate passes, so as to remove hot spots generated when the light passes through. The present invention can enable a user to focus on a game by solving the problem of a relatively darker cutting area through which a reel positioned on the backside of the display is seen.

The present invention relates to a stretched display panel fabricated by cutting an already-made display panel for displaying images, and a method for manufacturing the same. A method for manufacturing a stretched display panel according to an embodiment of the present invention is for the purpose of manufacturing a stretched display panel by cutting an already-made display panel comprising a color filter substrate and a TFT substrate into a desired size, and comprises the steps of: cutting the TFT substrate into a desired size; cutting the color filter substrate into a length smaller than that of the TFT substrate such that a pixel exposure portion is formed on the TFT substrate and exposes one or more horizontal pixel lines; forming a disconnection line on an end of the TFT substrate exposed by the pixel exposure portion so as to disconnect between a horizontal pixel line positioned on the end of the TFT substrate and an adjacent horizontal pixel line, thereby blocking inflow of electric noise through the horizontal pixel lines; and forming a reinforcement seal that reinforces rigidity of the pixel exposure portion concurrently with covering the pixel exposure portion by an encapsulation material so as to prevent a short circuit due to inflow of alien substances between the horizontal pixel lines. In the step of forming a reinforcement seal, a reinforcement material is applied while an application nozzle for applying the reinforcement material is arranged to slope from the end of the color filter substrate toward the end of the TFT substrate such that alien substances on the pixel exposure portion are pushed away and removed by the applied reinforcement material. Accordingly, the defect ratio can be minimized.

Abstract

The present invention relates to a digital bezel of a display device capable of displaying an image on a bezel which is the rim of a display device for displaying an image. The digital bezel of a display device, according to an embodiment of the present invention, comprises: a display device including a bezel region for displaying an image different from an effective screen by dividing a frame portion of an effective screen of the display device; and an optical pick-up member, mounted in the bezel region, for picking up an image displayed in the bezel region in a straight line by a predetermined thickness to three-dimensionally highlight the image. As such, the three-dimensional effect of the image can be emphasized and manufacturing costs can be reduced.
