Abstract
A display device including a display panel and a back cover is provided. In the display device, a flexible circuit film electrically connected to the display panel may be extended between the display panel and the back cover. In the display device, a cover tape is disposed between the flexible circuit film and the back cover. A portion of the flexible circuit film disposed close to an edge of the display panel may be exposed by the cover tape. Thus, the display device may prevent damage of the flexible circuit film due to the outer pressure.
Claims15
A display device comprising:
- a display panel including a first substrate and a second substrate coupled to the first substrate;
- a back cover disposed on the second substrate of the display panel;
- a flexible circuit film electrically connected to the display panel, the flexible circuit film including a first film region and a second film region disposed side by side the first film region in a longitudinal direction between the second substrate and the back cover;
- and
- a cover tape disposed between the second film region of the flexible circuit film and the back cover, the cover tape including a first cover tape disposed on a side surface of the flexible circuit film, and a second cover tape disposed on the second film region of the flexible circuit film,
- wherein the first film region is disposed closer to an outermost surface of the second substrate than the second film region, and
- wherein the first cover tape is extended in a length direction of the flexible circuit film.
A display device comprising:
- a display panel including a first substrate and a second substrate coupled to the first substrate;
- a cover tape on the second substrate of the display panel, the cover tape exposing an edge of the second substrate, the cover tape including a first tape region overlapping the flexible circuit films, and a second tape region between the flexible circuit films;
- a back cover disposed on the cover tape and including a region overlapping the display panel;
- and
- flexible circuit films disposed between the second substrate and the cover tape, each of the flexible circuit films electrically connected to the display panel,
- wherein a length of the second tape is larger than a length of the first tape in a length direction of the flexible circuit films.
A display device comprising:
- a display panel including first and second substrates facing each other;
- a flexible circuit film electrically connected to the display panel and extended to an outermost side surface of the second substrate and attached to the first substrate;
- a back cover protecting the flexible circuit film by enclosing the first and second substrates;
- and
- a cover tape disposed between the flexible circuit film and the back cover and providing a space between the flexible circuit films and the back cover,
- wherein the cover tape includes a first cover tape disposed on a side surface of the flexible circuit film, and a second cover tape disposed on the second film region of the flexible circuit film, and
- wherein the first cover tape is extended with respect to a length direction of the flexible circuit film.
