Patent ID: 7697101

Claim:
An array substrate for a liquid crystal display device, comprising: first and second gate lines on a substrate along a first direction; first and second data lines along a second direction and crossing the first and second gate lines to form a pixel region having a parallelogrammic shape; first to fourth thin film transistors respectively connected to the first gate and data lines, the first gate line and the second data line, the second gate line and the first data line, and the second gate and data lines; and first to fourth pixel electrodes in the pixel regions and respectively connected to the first to fourth thin film transistors, wherein each of the first and second data lines has a zigzag shape and each of the gate lines has a straight line shape, and a bent portion of the zigzag shape is disposed at a crossing portion of the gate and data lines, and wherein each of the gate and data lines has a straight line between adjacent two crossing portions of the gate and data lines, and wherein all thin film transistors connected to a single data line are disposed on a virtual straight line perpendicular to the gate line.
