The detailed structure of electro-optical device
In this routine electro-optical device 1, the tft array substrate 10 and the counter substrate 20 that constitute liquid crystal panel 100 all are thin, so, can be to arrow A 1, A2 and the arrow B 1 shown in Fig. 1 (A), (B), the direction bending of B2.Therefore, below, with reference to Fig. 4 illustrative examples as with liquid crystal panel 100 to crooked and constitute the example of crooked display surface with the direction shown in the arrow B 1.
As shown in Figure 4, in this example, to be the 1st polarization plates the 140, the 1st spacer 260 of 300～400 μ m, liquid crystal panel the 100, the 2nd spacer 270 with tft array substrate 10 and counter substrate 20, area than tft array substrate 10 big and thickness is the 2nd polarization plates 150 (the 2nd parts/sheet-form optical parts) of 300～400 μ m for substrate 210 (the 1st parts), thickness with the flexure plane 220 that is made of convex surface, by according to the configuration overlappingly of this order.
Here, the 1st polarization plates 140 is configured to along the state of flexure plane 220 bendings of substrate 210.Liquid crystal panel 100 (tft array substrate 10 and counter substrate 20) clips the 1st spacer 260 and is configured to crooked state between its outer circumferential side and the 1st polarization plates 140.The 2nd polarization plates 150, and the outer circumferential side of liquid crystal panel 100 between clip the 2nd spacer 270 and be configured to crooked state, and, fix with substrate 210 utilize adhesives 280 such as double sticky tape than liquid crystal panel 100 more outer outer circumferential sides.
When making the electro-optical device 1 of such structure, between substrate 210 and the 2nd polarization plates 150, make liquid crystal panel 100 bendings, under this state, utilizing double sticky tape 280 that the 2nd polarization plates 150 is fixed in the substrate 210 than liquid crystal panel 100 more outer outer circumferential sides, thus the case of bending of constraint liquid crystal panel 100.
Promptly, in substrate 210, make the 1st polarization plates the 140, the 1st spacer 260, liquid crystal panel the 100, the 2nd spacer 270 and the 2nd polarization plates 150 by this order overlay configuration after, make the 2nd polarization plates 150 copy flexure plane 220 bendings of substrate 210, and its outer circumferential side basad 210 pushed.As a result, the 1st polarization plates 140 and liquid crystal panel 100 are just pushed via the flexure plane 220 of spacer 260,270 basad 210 and are become crooked state, by utilizing double sticky tape 280 the 2nd polarization plates 150 are fixed in the substrate 210, thereby keep this state.
In addition, for the position of spacer 260,270 and the 2nd polarization plates basad 210 on fixed position, as long as comprise 2 positions of the both sides that the sweep with liquid crystal panel 100 is clipped in the middle, no matter be on whole girths or can on its part.
The electro-optical device 1 of Gou Chenging comes display image with a side that disposes polarization plates 150 as display surface like this.Here,, then in liquid crystal panel 100, the light (being represented by arrow L2) from back lighting device is carried out optical modulation in Fig. 4 if liquid crystal panel 100 is an infiltration type, and as display light (L10 represents by arrow) and outgoing.If liquid crystal panel 100 is the semi-penetration type, external light (in Fig. 4, representing) and carry out optical modulation in liquid crystal panel 100 then from the light (in Fig. 4, representing) of back lighting device by arrow L2 by arrow L1, and as display light (in Fig. 4, representing by arrow L10) and outgoing.Therefore, in this case, to use the material of light transmission type as substrate 210.
In addition, if liquid crystal panel 100 is a reflection-type, then in liquid crystal panel 100 externally light (in Fig. 4, representing) by arrow L1 carry out optical modulation, and as display light (in Fig. 4, representing) and outgoing by arrow L10.Therefore, just do not need the 1st polarization plates 140 this moment.In addition, as substrate 210, use have photopermeability and that do not have photopermeability any one can.
The effect that this is routine
As mentioned above, according to this example, noticed when constituting electro-optical device 1 with crooked display surface, though be the glass substrate that constitutes by hard material or quartz base plate etc., but so long as be configured to lamellar just can crooked this fact, thereby, use thin glass substrate or quartz base plate etc. as substrate for electrooptic device, and make it flexure plane 220 bendings along substrate 210.Therefore, the electro-optical device 1 of display surface bending can be provided.In addition, substrate for electrooptic device is the thin plate that is made of hard materials such as glass substrate or quartz base plates, so, the tolerance of climate change and thermotolerance height.Therefore, can realize having crooked display surface and electro-optical device 1 with high reliability.
In addition, in the present embodiment, than liquid crystal panel 100 more outer circumferential side utilize adhesives 280 such as double sticky tape that the 2nd polarization plates 150 is fixing with respect to substrate 210.Therefore, for liquid crystal panel 100,, also can make its bending even be not adhesively fixed with miscellaneous parts such as polarization plates 140,150.Therefore, because when making liquid crystal panel 100 bendings, between liquid crystal panel 100 and polarization plates 140,150, guarantee to have escape space (surplus), play, so, middle body being utilized as image display area can directly not transmit bigger stress to polarization plates 140,150 from liquid crystal panel 100.In addition, can directly not transmit bigger stress to liquid crystal panel 100 from polarization plates 140,150 yet.Therefore, in liquid crystal panel 100, the change at substrate interval or the bad phenomenon such as breakage of substrate can not take place, and the polarization characteristic of polarization plates 140,150 can change yet.
In addition, liquid crystal panel 100, because Jie of spacer 260,270 establishes existence, therefore just can not carry out the mode that face contacts with its middle section with miscellaneous part (polarization plates 140,150), between substrate 210 and the 2nd polarization plates 150, be constrained for crooked state.That is, between the middle section of liquid crystal panel 100 and polarization plates 140,150, guarantee gappedly, therefore can prevent Newton ring etc.

Here, the 2nd polarization plates 150, be fixed in the substrate utilize adhesives 280 such as double sticky tape than liquid crystal panel 100 more outer outer circumferential sides, thereby with the 1st polarization plates 140, liquid crystal panel 100 with have concavo-convex sheet 160,170 and copy flexure plane 220 and be constrained to crooked state.
Under situation about constituting in this wise, also the same with embodiment 1, for liquid crystal panel 100, can not make it bending even be not adhesively fixed with miscellaneous part such as polarization plates 140,150 yet.
In addition, in this example, owing to have concavo-convex sheet 160,170 disposing between the 1st polarization plates 140 and the liquid crystal panel 100 and between liquid crystal panel 100 and the 2nd polarization plates 150, so can prevent that the vision that the generation owing to Newton ring causes is bad.
In addition, in this example, have concavo-convex sheet 160,170 disposing between the 1st polarization plates 140 and the liquid crystal panel 100 and between liquid crystal panel 100 and the 2nd polarization plates 150, but also can be as required and only between one side configuration have concavo-convex sheet.
Consider if never miscellaneous parts such as liquid crystal panel 100 and polarization plates 140,150 are adhesively fixed and make it crooked angle, also can adopt structure shown in Figure 7.
In Fig. 7, in this routine electro-optical device 1, substrate the 210, the 1st polarization plates 140, liquid crystal panel 100 and area with flexure plane 220 dispose by this order overlappingly than liquid crystal panel 100 the 2nd big polarization plates 150.In addition, the 2nd polarization plates 150 than liquid crystal panel 150 more outer circumferential side utilize adhesives 280 such as double sticky tape and be fixed in the substrate 210, the 1st polarization plates 140, liquid crystal panel 100 copied flexure plane 220 and be constrained to crooked state.
In the above-described embodiments, used substrate 210, but also can use substrate 210 as shown in Figure 8 with the flexure plane 230 that constitutes by concave curved surface with the flexure plane 220 that constitutes by convex surface.
In Fig. 8, in this routine electro-optical device 1, the 2nd polarization plates 150 (the 2nd parts/sheet-form optical parts) that substrate 210 (the 1st parts), the 1st polarization plates the 140, the 1st spacer 260, liquid crystal panel the 100, the 2nd spacer 270 with tft array substrate 10 and counter substrate 20, area with the flexure plane 230 that is made of concave curved surface is bigger than tft array substrate 10 is according to the configuration overlappingly of this order.
Here, the 1st polarization plates 140 is configured to along the state of flexure plane 230 bendings of substrate 210.Liquid crystal panel 100 (tft array substrate 10 and counter substrate 20) clips the 1st spacer 260 and is configured to crooked state between its outer circumferential side and the 1st polarization plates 140.The 2nd polarization plates 150, and the outer circumferential side of liquid crystal panel 100 between clip the 2nd spacer 270 and be configured to crooked state, and at the outer circumferential side more outer, utilize adhesives 280 such as double sticky tape and by fixing with respect to substrate 210 than liquid crystal panel 100.Thus, the 1st polarization plates and liquid crystal panel 100 are constrained for crooked state.
Under situation about constituting in this wise, too, when formation has the electro-optical device 1 of crooked display surface,,, also can make it crooked even be not adhesively fixed with miscellaneous part such as polarization plates 140,150 for liquid crystal panel 100.Therefore, when making liquid crystal panel 100 bendings, the middle body being utilized as image display area does not directly transmit bigger stress from liquid crystal panel 100 to polarization plates 140,150, and, directly do not transmit bigger stress to liquid crystal panel 100 from polarization plates 140,150 yet.Therefore, unwanted gap does not just take place between liquid crystal panel 100 and polarization plates 140,150.In addition, in liquid crystal panel 100, can not take place substrate at interval change or the bad phenomenon such as breakage of substrate, and the also not change of polarization characteristic of polarization plates 140,150 can obtain the effect identical with embodiment 1.
In addition, this example is at embodiment 1 flexure plane of substrate 210 to be made as the example of concave curved surface, still, for embodiment 2～4, also can use the substrate 210 with the flexure plane 230 that is made of concave curved surface.
Below, illustrate as the example that the light guide plate of the back lighting device of the liquid crystal panel 100 of the active array type of infiltration type or semi-penetration type has been utilized substrate 210 (the 1st parts).
In this routine electro-optical device 1, also as illustrated with reference to Fig. 3 (A), (B), made in the thicker tft array substrate 10 that utilizes the about 0.5mm of thickness and counter substrate 20 electro-optical device 1 the manufacture process stage product 100 ' afterwards, by grinding or corrosion, make tft array substrate 10 and counter substrate 20 be thinned to the thickness of appointment, 25 μ m for example respectively.Therefore, in this routine electro-optical device 1, the tft array substrate 10 and the counter substrate 20 that constitute liquid crystal panel 100 are also thinner, therefore, and can be to arrow A 1, A2 and the arrow B 1 shown in Fig. 1 (A), (B), the direction bending of B2.Therefore, constitute the example of crooked display surface with reference to Fig. 9 illustrative examples to the bending of the direction shown in the arrow B 1 as making liquid crystal panel 100.
As shown in Figure 9, in this example, at the rear side formation back lighting device 300 of liquid crystal panel 100.In this example, back lighting device 300 has the substrate 210 (light guide plate) of the light transmission that possesses the flexure plane 220 (light-emitting face) that is made of convex surface, be configured in substrate 210 rear side, penetrate the light source 200 that constitutes by a plurality of cold-cathode tubes etc. of light and the reverberator 290 that covers the rear side of these light sources 200 to light entrance face 221 as the back side of substrate 210.
The light entrance face 221 of substrate 210, by constituting along the concave curved surface as the convex curve surface shape of the flexure plane 220 of light-emitting face, light source 200 is configured in the space of caving in by this concave curved surface.In addition, in reverberator 290, the part 291 relative with the light entrance face 221 of substrate 210 becomes along the curved surface of the concave curved surface of the light entrance face 221 of substrate 210, and, the part 292 of the bending of further extending by the end of the part 291 that surpasses this curved surface, the space that disposes light source 200 become three parts's structure that device 290 covers that is reflected.
To the light entrance face 221 of substrate 210, implemented to be used to improve the homogeneity of outgoing brightness and processing 215 such as the wrinkle processing of brightness (surface detail processing, シ ボ processing), point print, some shaping, micro prisms shaping.In addition, between the light entrance face 221 of substrate 210 and light source 200, dispose sheet-form optical parts 250 such as prismatic lens or light diffusing sheet.
In addition, in this routine electro-optical device 1, above the flexure plane 220 of substrate 210, thickness is arranged is the 1st polarization plates the 140, the 1st spacer 260 of 300～400 μ m, liquid crystal panel the 100, the 2nd spacer 270 with tft array substrate 10 and counter substrate 20, area to overlay configuration than tft array substrate 10 that big and thickness is the 2nd polarization plates 150 of 300～400 μ m in order.
The 1st polarization plates 140 is configured to along the state of flexure plane 220 bendings of substrate 210.Liquid crystal panel 100 (tft array substrate 10 and counter substrate 20) clips the 1st spacer 260 and is configured to crooked state between its outer circumferential side and the 1st polarization plates 140.The 2nd partially according to plate 150, and the outer circumferential side of liquid crystal panel 100 between clip the 2nd spacer 270 and be configured to crooked state, and, substrate 210 is fixing relatively utilized adhesives 280 such as double sticky tape by liquid crystal panel 100 more outer outer circumferential sides, thereby the 1st polarization plates 140 and liquid crystal panel 100 are constrained in crooked state.Therefore, liquid crystal panel 100 becomes along the flexure plane 220 of substrate 210 and crooked state.
When making the electro-optical device 1 that constitutes like this, above the flexure plane 220 of substrate 210, after the 1st polarization plates the 140, the 1st spacer 260, liquid crystal panel the 100, the 2nd spacer 270 and the 2nd polarization plates 150 are pressed this order overlay configuration, make the 2nd polarization plates 150 copy the flexure plane 220 of substrate 210 and bending, and its outer circumferential side basad 210 is pushed.The result, the 1st polarization plates 140 and liquid crystal panel 100 are pushed by basad 210 flexure plane 220 via spacer 260,270, become crooked state, by utilizing double sticky tape 280 that the 2nd polarization plates 150 is fixed in the substrate 210, thereby keep this state.
