Abstract
A liquid crystal display device includes a plurality of individual and discrete liquid crystal display cells each having two plates disposed in respective directions normal to each other so as to form extension portions in these directions together with overlap portions for assembly of the respective cells. The cells are assembled into a single wide-screen liquid crystal display panel such that lead terminals are disposed in the extension portions of the plates using electrically conductive members, such as elasmatic rubber connectors, for connecting the lead terminals. The lead terminals are maintained in overlapping and electrically conductive relationship via said conductive members.
Claims5
A liquid crystal display device comprising:
- a plurality of liquid crystal display cells in a substantially coplanar arrangement;
- each cell comprising two plates disposed in parallel planes;
- each of said plates having a length which exceeds the width of the other of said plates, the lengths of the respective plates extending in respective directions which are normal to each other, thereby forming extension portions for overlapping similar extension portions of adjacent cells;
- lead terminals disposed on said extension portions of said plates;
- and
- electrically conductive members for connecting said lead terminals of respective ones of said cells to said lead terminals of adjacent coplanar cells in overlapping and electrically conductive relationship.
