Display panel device

A display panel device comprising:

• a plasma display panel with a screen;
• and
• a front sheet that is glued on a front face of the plasma display panel, wherein
• the front sheet includes a front portion having a plane size that is larger than a plane size of the plasma display panel and a rear portion that contacts the front portion,
• the front portion is constituted of plural layers, each layer having the same plane size and a different function,
• the front portion is coupled to the front face of the plasma display panel through the rear portion,
• the rear portion has a plane size that is larger than a plane size of the screen and smaller than the plane size of the plasma display panel,
• a layer of the plural layers that contacts the rear portion is an electromagnetic wave shielding layer that is configured to shield electromagnetic waves radiated from the plasma display panel,
• the rear portion is formed from a single material that has a higher adhesion to the electromagnetic wave shielding layer than to the front face of the plasma display panel, and
• a part of the electromagnetic wave shielding layer extends beyond the plasma display panel in a plane view so as to enable contact between the electromagnetic wave shielding layer and an external conductor at an extended portion of the electromagnetic wave shielding layer.

A display device comprising:

• a display panel;
• and
• a functional film arranged on a display surface of the display panel in intimate contact, wherein
• the functional film is made of a layered film including an optical functional film that is configured to filter light emitted from the display panel and an electromagnetic shielding film having a conductive layer for shielding electromagnetic waves radiated from the display panel,
• a plane size of the electromagnetic shielding film is larger than a plane size of the display panel,
• the optical functional film and the electromagnetic shielding film have the same size in at least one of a horizontal direction and a vertical direction of the display surface of the display panel,
• the electromagnetic shielding film is disposed more closely to the display panel than the optical functional film,
• the conductive layer of the electromagnetic shielding film is arranged on the display surface in intimate contact,
• the functional film is brought into intimate contact with the display surface of the display panel via a flexible transparent layer that is disposed between the electromagnetic shielding film of the functional film and the display surface,
• the flexible transparent layer is a coupling layer between the functional film and the display surface of the display panel and is formed from a single material that has a higher adhesion to the electromagnetic wave shielding layer than to the front face of the display panel, and
• a part of the conductive layer extends beyond the display panel in a plane view so as to enable contact between the conductive layer and an external conductor at an extended portion of the conductive layer.
