Abstract:
A liquid crystal display module is switchable between a blocking state and a displaying state on the basis of a change, caused by applying a voltage to the liquid crystal layer, in the orientation of liquid crystal molecules contained in the liquid crystal layer, the blocking state being a state in which transmitting light is concentrated to a blocking region on an initial optical axis, the displaying state being a state in which transmitting light is concentrated to a light-emitting region on a voltage-induced optical axis different from the initial optical axis.

Claim (Index 2):
The liquid crystal display module according to  claim 1 , further comprising:\n a polarizing layer provided below the liquid crystal layer so as to let only a linearly polarized component of light incident on the polarizing layer pass through the polarizing layer; and an upper alignment layer provided immediately above the liquid crystal layer and a lower alignment layer provided immediately below the liquid crystal layer, the upper and lower alignment layers aligning the liquid crystal molecules in an initial state, wherein the upper and lower alignment layers each include (i) at least one first alignment layer aligning the liquid crystal molecules in a first direction and (ii) at least one second alignment layer aligning the liquid crystal molecules in a second direction different from the first direction, the liquid crystal layer provides at least one liquid crystal lens configured to, on a basis of the liquid crystal molecules aligned in a predetermined state with use of the at least one first alignment layer and the at least one second alignment layer of each of the upper and lower alignment layers, concentrate the transmitting light having passed through the polarizing layer and passing through the liquid crystal layer, and the liquid crystal layer is in (i) the blocking state in a case where the voltage is not being applied to the liquid crystal layer and is in (ii) the displaying state in a case where the voltage is being applied to the liquid crystal layer in a predetermined magnitude.
