Patent ID: 7034910

Claim:
A liquid crystal display device ( 1 ), which in a voltageless state is bright, having a liquid crystal layer placed in an active zone ( 2 ) between substrates, the substrates each covered on an outside by pole filters oriented in an arrangement for a voltageless bright display and on an inside carrying segments ( 2 . 2 ) of surface electrodes, the segments being separated from one another by electrically insulating dividing lines ( 5 ), the segments being connected to connection lines leading to the outside, and masking for areas that otherwise remain bright in retrace blanking being on the inside of the substrates, the liquid crystal display device comprising: the active zone ( 2 ) surrounded on a periphery with adhesive strips ( 4 ) that appear black between the substrates; and the masking produced, at least in bright areas that at a viewing distance are clearly visible being produced by further adhesive strips ( 4 ′), and the further adhesive strips ( 4 ′) are disposed at least in a region of the connection lines.
