CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS 
       [0001]    This application is the national phase of PCT International Application No. PCT/JP2014/068494 which has an International filing date of Jul. 10, 2014 and designated the United States of America. 
     
    
     FIELD 
       [0002]    The present application relates to a display panel and a display apparatus which include a repair wiring for repairing a disconnection in a lead-out wiring. 
         [0003]    BACKGROUND 
         [0004]    A liquid crystal display apparatus has been widely used for a computer display, a television receiving apparatus, an information display for displaying various information and the like. For example, an active matrix type liquid crystal display apparatus is configured to serve thin film transistors (TFTs) installed in each pixel as a switching element to apply a signal voltage (gradation voltage) to a pixel electrode within a period in which the switching element is turned on so as to control light transmittance in each pixel, thereby implementing a multi-gradation display with high definition without a crosstalk between the pixels. 
         [0005]    Generally, a liquid crystal display panel included in the liquid crystal display apparatus includes two transparent substrates made of a glass thin plate and a liquid crystal sealed between these substrates. One substrate (TFT glass substrate) is provided with the pixel electrode, the TFT, and the like in each pixel, and the other substrate (CF glass substrate) is provided with a color filter facing the pixel electrode and common electrodes (counter electrodes) which are common to each pixel. 
         [0006]    The TFT glass substrate is provided with a plurality of gate wirings extending in a horizontal direction, and a plurality of source wirings extending in a vertical direction. Rectangular regions which are partitioned by these gate wirings and source wirings are a pixel region, respectively. Each pixel region is provided with the TFT which is a switching element and the pixel electrode. Further, the liquid crystal display panel includes a gate driver connected to the gate wiring and a source driver connected to the source wiring to control an image display in each pixel. 
         [0007]    The source driver outputs display data to each source wiring at a timing synchronized with a data clock signal, within one horizontal synchronizing period. Meanwhile, the gate driver sequentially outputs scanning signals to the gate wirings at a timing synchronized with a gate clock signal, within one vertical synchronizing period. The TFT of the pixel connected to the gate wiring to which the scanning signal is supplied is turned on, and the display data supplied to the source wiring is written in the pixel electrode. Thereby, an orientation of liquid crystal molecules within the pixel is changed, and thus the light transmittance of the pixel is changed. The display data are respectively written in each pixel within one vertical synchronizing period, and a desired image is displayed on the liquid crystal display panel. 
       SUMMARY 
       [0008]    Various display panels including the liquid crystal display panel as described above have a plurality of signal wirings disposed therein to transmit a display signal to be supplied to a display element, and a control signal for driving the display element. 
         [0009]    In addition, the display panel is provided with a plurality of signal input parts to which the display signal and the control signal are input on a peripheral edge portion thereof, and is configured to supply the display signal and the control signal input to the signal input parts to each signal wiring through lead-out wirings which connect the signal input parts and the signal wirings. 
         [0010]    When a disconnection occurs in such the signal wiring, the display signal and the control signal to be supplied may not be applied to each display element, and an image having an appropriate luminance may not be displayed in the display element for one line which is connected to the corresponding signal wiring, such that unevenness of stripes in the vertical direction and the horizontal direction occur. 
         [0011]    In order to repair the above-described disconnection, conventionally, a method in which a dummy wiring is provided along the signal wiring, and when a disconnection occurs at a portion, two locations of the dummy wiring in which the disconnected portion is interposed therebetween become molten so as to provide a bypass path has been proposed (for example, see Japanese Patent Laid-open Publication No. 10-319438). 
         [0012]    However, conventionally, it is necessary to dispose the dummy wiring to be overlapped within a line width range of the signal wiring, and when a position in which the dummy wiring is formed is shifted, even if the two locations of the dummy wiring become molten, the bypass path may not be formed. Therefore, there is a problem that the disconnection may not be appropriately rectified. Further, since the dummy wiring is provided along the signal wiring, when repairing the disconnection, it is difficult to view an overlapped portion of conductive layers, and it is not easy to perform a repairing operation. 
         [0013]    In consideration of the above-mentioned circumstances, it is an object of the present application to provide a display panel and display apparatus which are capable of reliably repairing a disconnection in a lead-out wiring.

     DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS 
       [0038]    Hereinafter, the present application will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings illustrating the embodiments thereof. 
       Embodiment 1 
       [0039]      FIG. 1  is a schematic view of a liquid crystal display panel according to the present embodiment. A liquid crystal display panel  1  according to the present embodiment includes a thin film transistor (TFT) side glass substrate  110 , a liquid crystal layer  120  (see  FIG. 5 ), and a color filter (CF) side glass substrate  130 . 
         [0040]    The TFT side glass substrate  110  is a transparent rectangular substrate, and has a slightly broader cross-section than that of the CF side glass substrate  130 . The TFT side glass substrate  110  includes pixel electrodes and TFTs which are formed on one surface thereof corresponding to each of a plurality of display pixels disposed in a matrix manner, for example. In addition, the TFT side glass substrate  110  is provided with signal input parts  40 ,  40 , and . . . on a peripheral edge portion thereof, to which display signals (or scanning signals) to be supplied to each display pixel are input. Also, the TFT side glass substrate  110  is provided with a wiring layer including signal wirings such as gate wirings  21 , and source wirings  31  (see  FIG. 2 ). 
         [0041]    The display signals to be supplied to each of the display pixels, for example, are input to the signal input parts  40 ,  40 , and . . . arranged along an upper side of the liquid crystal display panel  1 . Each of the signal input parts  40  is provided with a lead-out wiring part  50 , and the display signals are supplied to the appropriate number (for example,  720 ) of the source wirings  31  through the lead-out wiring part  50 . 
         [0042]    Similarly, the scanning signals for selecting the display pixels to be supplied with the display signals are input to the signal input parts  40 ,  40 , . . . , which are arranged along a left side or a right side of the liquid crystal display panel  1 . Each of the signal input parts  40  is provided with the lead-out wiring part  50 , and the scanning signals are supplied to the appropriate number (for example, 360) of the gate wirings  21  through the lead-out wiring part  50 . 
         [0043]    The CF side glass substrate  130  is a transparent rectangular substrate, and is provided to face one surface of the TFT side glass substrate  110 . The CF side glass substrate  130  is provided with counter electrodes  131  (see  FIG. 5 ) on a surface thereof facing the TFT side glass substrate, and is additionally provided with a black matrix  151  for dividing a display region into a lattice-shaped pattern corresponding to each of the display pixels, and a frame part  152  for shielding light in a region around the display region. 
         [0044]    The TFT side glass substrate  110  and the CF side glass substrate  130  are bonded to each other by a seal material while being provided with a gap between both substrates, and by sealing a liquid crystal material into the gap, the liquid crystal layer  120  is formed. 
         [0045]      FIG. 2  is a schematic view describing a configuration of the lead-out wiring part  50 .  FIG. 2  illustrates only a part of the lead-out wirings, for simplification. In the lead-out wiring part  50 , the wirings are lead out from a narrow region on the signal input part  40  side to a wide region on the display region side. Therefore, in the vicinity of a center of the lead-out wiring part  50 , a direct distance from the signal input part  40  to the signal wirings (the gate wirings  21  or the source wirings  31 ) is relatively short, and in the vicinity of end portions of the lead-out wiring part  50 , the direct distance from the signal input part  40  to the signal wirings is relatively long. Accordingly, when forming the lead-out wiring in a straight line having the same line width, a resistance value of the lead-out wiring is decreased in the vicinity of the center, and is increased in the vicinity of the end portions thereof. As a result, even when the display signals or scanning signals having the same magnitude are supplied from the signal input parts  40 , the magnitudes of signals supplied to respective signal wirings are different from each other depending on wiring lengths of the lead-out wirings to be transmitted. When displaying an image in the display region based on such the signals, a luminance unevenness appears in the displayed image. 
         [0046]    In the present embodiment, parts of the lead-out wirings are provided with meander wiring parts  52  whose wirings are meandered, so that a difference in the resistance value between the lead-out wirings becomes within a predetermined range (for example, 10Ω or less). That is, it is configured that the wiring length is lengthened in the vicinity of the center of the lead-out wiring part  50  by increasing the meandering amount in the meander wiring part  52 , and the wiring length is adjusted by decreasing the meandering amount from the vicinity of the center toward the end portions to make the wiring lengths of the respective lead-out wirings substantially the same as each other, such that a difference in the resistance values between the lead-out wirings enters within the predetermined range. As illustrated in  FIG. 2 , the meander wiring parts  52  are provided between straight wiring parts  51  on the signal input part  40  side and straight wiring parts  53  on the display region side. 
         [0047]      FIG. 3  is a schematic view illustrating an example of the meander wiring part  52 . The meander wiring part  52  is provided between the straight wiring part  51  connected to the signal input part  40  and the straight wiring part  53  connected to the signal wiring within the display region. The meander wiring part  52  has, for example, cross wirings  521  provided with a length of about 40 μm in a direction intersecting the gate wiring  21  (or the source wiring  31 ), and parallel wirings  522  provided with a length of about 10 μm in a direction substantially parallel to the gate wiring  21 . The meander wiring part  52  is formed by alternately connecting these cross wirings  521  and parallel wirings  522  with each other. 
         [0048]    Furthermore, in the present embodiment, the meander wiring part  52  is configured to have the cross wirings  521  intersecting the gate wiring  21  (or the source wiring  31 ), and the parallel wirings  522  substantially parallel thereto, but a shape of the wiring in the meander wiring part  52  is not limited to the configuration illustrated in  FIG. 3 . For example, it is not necessary for the cross wirings  521  and the parallel wirings  522  to be orthogonal to each other, and it may be configured to be connected with each other at a prescribed angle. In addition, as illustrated in  FIG. 3 , it is not necessary to combine the linear wirings, and for example, the meandering wiring may be formed by a combination of the cross wirings  521  and bent wirings having any curvature. 
         [0049]    In order to repair a disconnection in the above-described meander wiring part  52 , in the present embodiment, a repair wiring  60  is provided.  FIG. 4  is a schematic view describing a configuration of the repair wiring  60  in Embodiment 1, and  FIG. 5  is a cross-sectional view taken on line V-V in  FIG. 4 . The repair wiring  60  is disposed so as to intersect the wiring in the meander wiring part  52  at at least two locations, in a plane view. In the description below, the meander wiring part  52  (lead-out wiring) is connected to the gate wiring  21 . 
         [0050]    As illustrated in  FIG. 5 , the liquid crystal display panel  1  includes the TFT side glass substrate  110  in which each of the pixels  10  is formed in a matrix manner, a liquid crystal layer  120  formed by sealing the liquid crystal material therein, and the CF side glass substrate  130  in which color filters, and the like are formed. The TFT side glass substrate  110  and the CF side glass substrate  130  are, for example, a glass substrate. Herein, gate wiring layers  115 , a gate insulation layer  114 , a source wiring layer  113 , and a protective layer  112  are laminated on one surface side of the TFT side glass substrate  110 . In addition, the counter electrode  131  is formed on one surface side of the CF side glass substrate  130 . 
         [0051]     The gate insulation layer  114  covers the gate wiring layers  115  forming the gate wirings  21 . The meander wiring part  52  (lead-out wiring) connected to the gate wiring  21  may be, for example, made of the same material as the gate wiring  21  by using the same process as the process of forming the gate wiring  21 . 
         [0052]    The repair wiring  60  may be formed as a wiring in the source wiring layer  113 , and may be made, for example, of the same material (for example, Cu/Ti) as the source wiring  31  by using the same process as the process of forming the source wiring  31 . That is, the source wiring layer  113  including the repair wiring  60  and the gate wiring layers  115  including the wiring of the meander wiring part  52  to be repaired are laminated with the gate insulation layer  114  interposed therebetween. 
         [0053]      FIG. 6  is a schematic view describing a method for repairing the disconnection, and  FIG. 7  is a cross-sectional view taken on line VII-VII in  FIG. 6 . Hereinafter, a case in which a disconnection location  70  occurs at one location on the wiring in the meander wiring part  52  will be described. The example illustrated in  FIG. 6  shows a state in which the disconnection location  70  occurs at a second cross wiring  521  from the signal input part  40  side. In this case, a cross part  61  between the second cross wiring  521  from the signal input part  40  side and the repair wiring  60 , and a cross part  62  between a third cross wiring  521  from the signal input part  40  side and the repair wiring  60  are molten-rectified, and thereby it is possible to provide a bypass path between the second cross wiring  521  and the third cross wiring  521 . 
         [0054]    Specifically, when the disconnection location  70  occurs at the second cross wiring  521  from the signal input part  40  side, while viewing the cross part  61  between the second cross wiring  521  from the signal input part  40  side and the repair wiring  60  by using a camera and the like, the other surface side of the TFT side glass substrate  110  is irradiated with a laser beam toward the cross part  61 , and a part of the repair wiring  60  becomes molten, and thereby a conduction part  61   a,  in which the repair wiring  60  and the cross wiring  521  located in a lower layer thereof are conducted at the cross part  61 , is formed. By the same manner, while viewing the cross part  62  between the third cross wiring  521  from the signal input part  40  side and the repair wiring  60 , the other surface side of the TFT side glass substrate  110  is irradiated with a laser beam toward the cross part  62 , and a part of the repair wiring  60  becomes molten, and thereby a conduction part  62   a,  in which the repair wiring  60  and the cross wiring  521  located in the lower layer thereof are conducted at the cross part  62 , is formed. Thereby, a bypass path passing through the two cross parts  61  and  62  and the repair wiring  60  may be formed, to repair the disconnection. 
         [0055]    As described above, in the present embodiment, the repair wiring  60  intersecting the wiring (lead-out wiring) of the meander wiring part  52  to be repaired at at least two locations is provided, such that the two cross parts  61  and  62  between the lead-out wiring and the repair wiring  60  may be easily viewed, and a repair efficiency may be improved. 
         [0056]    Further, in the present embodiment, even when a position in which the repair wiring  60  is formed is slightly shifted in an in-plane direction, the cross part (such as the two cross parts  61  and  62 ) between the repair wiring  60  and the lead-out wiring is reliably formed without decreasing an overlapped amount of the repair wiring  60  with the lead-out wiring, such that a molten-rectifying is performed using these cross parts (such as the two cross parts  61  and  62 ), and thereby it is possible to repair the disconnection. 
         [0057]    Next, a configuration of a liquid crystal display apparatus using the liquid crystal display panel according to the present embodiment will be described.  FIG. 8  is a schematic view illustrating a configuration of a driving system of the liquid crystal display apparatus. The display apparatus according to the present embodiment is, for example, a liquid crystal display apparatus including a liquid crystal display panel  1 , a gate driver  2 , a source driver  3 , a power circuit  4 , an image memory  5 , a control circuit  6  and the like. 
         [0058]    The liquid crystal display panel  1  includes a plurality of display elements  10 ,  10 ,  10 , . . . disposed in a matrix manner. The display elements adjacent to each other are light shielded by the black matrix  151 , and each of the display elements  10  is divided by the same, so as to respectively serve as a display pixel. 
         [0059]    Each of the display elements  10  in the liquid crystal display panel  1  includes a pixel electrode provided in the TFT side glass substrate  110 , a counter electrode  131  provided in the CF side glass substrate  130 , and a liquid crystal layer  120  sealed between the pixel electrode and the counter electrode  131 . The control circuit  6  controls the magnitude of a voltage applied to each display element  10  through the gate driver  2  and the source driver  3 , so as to control light transmittance of the liquid crystal layer  120  in each of the display elements  10 , and determine display luminance in each display pixel. 
         [0060]    In order to control the voltage applied to the liquid crystal layer  120  in each display element  10 , the control circuit  6  generates a memory control signal, a power control signal, a source driver control signal, and a gate driver control signal based on a synchronization signal input from an outside, and outputs each of the generated control signals to the image memory  5 , the power circuit  4 , the source driver  3 , and the gate driver  2 , respectively. 
         [0061]    The image memory  5  temporarily stores input display data and outputs pixel data to be displayed on the liquid crystal display panel  1  to the source driver  3 , in synchronization with the memory control signal input from the control circuit  6 . Furthermore, the image memory  5  may be embedded in the control circuit  6 , and may be configured to output image data to the source driver  3  through internal processing of the control circuit  6 . 
         [0062]    Herein, the input synchronization signal and the display data are included in an LCD signal output from a CPU or an LCD control IC equipped in a mobile phone, a portable game machine, or the like, a signal acquired by A/D converting a CRT output signal of a personal computer (PC), a signal acquired by allowing the control circuit  6  to directly control a video RAM equipped in the PC or the like. 
         [0063]    The power circuit  4  generates a driving voltage for the gate driver  2 , and a driving voltage for the source driver  3 , in synchronization with the power control signal input from the control circuit  6 , and outputs the generated driving voltage to the gate driver  2  and the source driver  3 , respectively. 
         [0064]    The gate driver  2  sequentially outputs a control voltage for controlling the switching element provided in the display element to be turned on/off, in synchronization with the gate driver control signal input from the control circuit  6 , to apply it to the gate wiring  21  which is a scanning line. 
         [0065]    The source driver  3  receives the pixel data output from the image memory  5 , in synchronization with the source driver control signal input from the control circuit  6 , and sequentially outputs a signal voltage depending on the pixel data. The signal voltage output from the source driver  3  is supplied to the display element  10  through the source wiring  31  which is the signal line, when the corresponding switching element is turned on. 
       Embodiment 2 
       [0066]    In Embodiment 1, it is configured to provide the repair wiring  60  intersecting the cross wiring  521  in the meander wiring part  52  at at least two locations, but it may be configured that the repair wiring  60  is disposed so that a partial section thereof is overlapped with the parallel wiring  522 . 
         [0067]    In Embodiment 2, a configuration in which the repair wiring  60  is disposed so that a partial section thereof is overlapped with the parallel wiring  522  of the meander wiring part  52  will be described. 
         [0068]      FIG. 9  is a schematic view describing a configuration of the repair wiring  60  in Embodiment 2. In a plane view, the repair wiring  60  is disposed so as to intersect the wiring in the meander wiring part  52  at at least two locations. In Embodiment 2, further, the repair wiring  60  is disposed so that a partial section thereof is overlapped with the wiring of the meander wiring part  52 . In an example illustrated in  FIG. 9 , the repair wiring  60  is disposed at a right end of the meander wiring part  52 , so that a partial section of the repair wiring  60  is overlapped with the parallel wiring  522  in the meander wiring part  52 . 
         [0069]    Also in Embodiment 2, since the repair wiring  60  is disposed so as to intersect the wiring in the meander wiring part  52  at at least two locations, when a disconnection occurs in the meander wiring part  52 , a molten-rectifying is performed at these cross parts, and thereby it is possible to provide a bypass path, and repair the disconnection. 
         [0070]    In addition, as compared to Embodiment 1, in the lead-out wiring part  50 , it is possible to increase a region (an opening region) with no wiring formed therein. Therefore, for example, in an aspect in which ultraviolet (UV) rays are exposed from the other surface side of the TFT side glass substrate  110 , so as to cure a seal material for sealing the liquid crystal material between the TFT side glass substrate  110  and the CF side glass substrate  130 , it is possible to prevent an occurrence of an uncured part in the seal material. 
       Embodiment 3 
       [0071]    In Embodiments 1 and 2, it is configured to provide one repair wiring  60  with respect to one meander wiring part  52 , but it may be configured to provide a plurality of repair wirings  60 . 
         [0072]    In Embodiment 3, a configuration of providing a plurality of repair wirings  60  will be described. 
         [0073]      FIG. 10  is a schematic view describing a configuration of the repair wirings  60  in Embodiment 3. In an example illustrated in  FIG. 10 , two repair wirings  60  are provided with respect to the meander wiring part  52 . Each of the repair wirings  60  is disposed so as to intersect the wiring in the meander wiring part  52  at at least two locations, in a plane view. 
         [0074]      FIG. 11  is a schematic view describing a method for repairing the disconnection in Embodiment 3. In an example illustrated in  FIG. 11 , a state in which a disconnection location  70  occurs at the second cross wiring  521  from the signal input part  40  side is illustrated. In this case, a cross part  61  between a right repair wiring  60  close to the disconnection location  70  and the second cross wiring  521  from the signal input part  40  side, and a cross part  62  between the right repair wiring  60  and the third cross wiring  521  from the signal input part  40  side are molten-rectified, and thereby it is possible to provide a bypass path using the right repair wiring  60 . 
         [0075]    When an amplitude of the meander wiring part  52  is large (when the cross wiring  521  is long), even when the disconnection is repaired using the repair wirings  60 , the wiring length after the repair is largely changed from the wiring length before the disconnection depending on the disconnection location  70 , such that a change in a resistance of the lead-out wiring thereof may be more remarkable. However, in Embodiment 3, since the plurality of repair wirings  60  are disposed, the disconnection repair is performed by selecting the repair wiring  60  nearest to the disconnection location  70 , and thereby it is possible to suppress a change in the resistance after the repair. 
         [0076]    Further, in the example illustrated in  FIG. 10 , it is configured to provide two repair wirings  60  with respect to one meander wiring part  52 , but it may be configured to provide three or more repair wirings  60 . Furthermore, in the meander wiring part  52 , as the disconnection may easily occur at corner portions in which the cross wiring  521  and the parallel wiring  522  are connected with each other, it is preferable that the repair wiring  60  is disposed in the vicinity of the corner portions. 
       Embodiment 4 
       [0077]    In Embodiment 3, it is configured to provide the plurality of repair wirings  60  intersecting the cross wiring  521  in the meander wiring part  52  at at least two locations, but it may be configured to provide a connection wiring for connecting the plurality of repair wirings  60 . 
         [0078]    In Embodiment 4, a configuration of providing the connection wiring between the repair wirings  60  will be described. 
         [0079]      FIG. 12  is a schematic view describing a configuration of the repair wirings  60  in Embodiment 4. In an example illustrated in  FIG. 12 , two repair wirings  60  are provided with respect to one meander wiring part  52 . Each of the repair wirings  60  is disposed so as to intersect the wiring in the meander wiring part  52  at at least two locations, in a plane view. Further, a connection wiring part  600  intersecting the two repair wirings  60  and  60  is provided, to connect the two repair wirings  60  and  60 . The two repair wirings  60  and  60  and the connection wiring part  600  may be integrally formed. 
         [0080]      FIG. 13  is a schematic view describing a method for repairing the disconnection in Embodiment 4. In an example illustrated in  FIG. 13 , a state in which a disconnection location  70  occurs at a first cross wiring  521  from the signal input part  40  side is illustrated. In this case, on both sides of the disconnection location  70 , a cross part  63  between a right repair wiring  60  and the first cross wiring  521  from the signal input part  40  side, and a cross part  64  between a left right repair wiring  60  and the first cross wiring  521  from the signal input part  40  side are molten-rectified, and thereby it is possible to provide a bypass path using the connection wiring part  600 . 
         [0081]    In Embodiment 4, the wiring length before the disconnection and the wiring length after the repair may be substantially the same as each other, and thereby it is possible to maintain a difference in a resistance between the lead-out wirings adjacent to each other within a predetermined range. 
         [0082]    As this description may be embodied in several forms without departing from the spirit of essential characteristics thereof, the present embodiment is therefore illustrative and not restrictive, since the scope is defined by the appended claims rather than by the description preceding them, and all changes that fall within metes and bounds of the claims, or equivalence of such metes and bounds thereof are therefore intended to be embraced by the claims In addition, technical features described in each embodiment may be combined with each other, and new technical features may be formed by the combination. 
         [0083]    It is noted that, as used herein and in the appended claims, the singular forms “a”, “an”, and “the” include plural referents unless the context clearly dictates otherwise.
