Patent ID: 8717661

Claim:
An electrophoresis device comprising: a translucent first substrate having a first electrode below one surface thereof; a second substrate having a second electrode above one surface thereof, and disposed to face the first substrate such that a protruding portion is present at one side of the second substrate, wherein in a plan view, the protruding portion does not overlap the first substrate, the protruding portion including a first part; a wiring pattern electrically connected to the second electrode via a first contact hole of the second substrate, and provided below the other surface of the second substrate such that the wiring pattern extends along the protruding portion of the second substrate, a second part of the wiring pattern overlapping the first part in the plan view; an electrophoretic layer interposed between the first electrode and the second electrode; a translucent first moistureproof film having a first portion contacting the other surface of the first substrate and a first surplus portion disposed around the first portion; a second moistureproof film having a second portion contacting the other surface of the second substrate and a second surplus portion disposed around the second portion, the second moistureproof film not overlapping the first part and the second part in the plan view; an external device provided above a first surface of the second moistureproof film, the first surface of the second moistureproof film being opposite to the second substrate, and a flexible wiring substrate of the external device being electrically connected to the second part; and a sealant provided between the first surplus portion and the second surplus portion, the sealant overlapping the second part in the plan view.
