Light emitting display device and method of making the same

A light emitting display device comprising:

• a casing of a predetermined height having an obverse surface formed with a plurality of display segments each of which is provided at an end of a light guide;
• a plurality of light emitting elements disposed in the casing so as to positionally correspond to the display segments;
• a plurality of leads each of which has a first end electrically connected to a respective light emitting element and a second end extending toward a bottom side of the casing;
• and a resin filled in the light guides for sealing the first ends of the leads and the light emitting elements;
• wherein the second end of each lead is formed with a soldering surface which is provided in the casing to be substantially flush with a bottom surface of the casing in the height direction of the casing.

A light emitting display device comprising:

• a casing having a predetermined height, the casing including an obverse surface, two longitudinally extending side walls and two widthwise extending side walls, the obverse surface being formed with a plurality of display segments each of which is provided at an end of a light guide;
• a plurality of light emitting elements disposed in the casing so as to positionally correspond to the display segments;
• a plurality of leads each of which has a first end electrically connected to a respective light emitting element and a second end extending toward a bottom side of the casing;
• and a resin filled in the light guides for sealing the first ends of the leads and the light emitting elements;
• the light emitting display device being used in combination with other light emitting display device or devices arranged in side-by-side relationship;
• wherein the plurality of leads are arranged in two rows extending along the two widthwise extending side walls, the second end of each lead being formed with a soldering surface.
