Liquid crystal display device having display divided into first and second display regions along a border line in a direction in which scanning signal lines extend

A liquid crystal display device comprising:

• a liquid crystal display panel including a liquid crystal material sealed between a first substrate and a second substrate, wherein
• the first substrate has a plurality of scanning signal lines, a plurality of video signal lines, a plurality of TFT elements, a plurality of counter electrodes and a plurality of pixel electrodes,
• the liquid crystal display panel includes a first display region and a second display region along a border line in a direction in which the scanning signal line extend,
• the first display region includes a plurality of pixels arranged between two adjacent video signal lines extending in a column direction in the first display region and a plurality of pixels arranged between two adjacent scanning signal lines extending in a row direction in the first display region, each pixel having a single TFT element and a single pixel electrode,
• the second display region includes a plurality of pixels arranged between two adjacent video signal lines extending in a column direction in the second display region and a plurality of pixels arranged between two adjacent scanning signal lines extending in a row direction in the second display region, each pixel having a single TFT element and a single pixel electrode,
• a video signal line connected to sources or drains of the TFT elements of pixels of the first display region and a video signal line connected to sources or drains of the TFT elements of pixels of the second display region are electrically isolated from each other,
• the plurality of pixels arranged between the two adjacent video signal lines extending in the column direction in the first display region alternately include a pixel having a single TFT element with a source or a drain connected to one of the two adjacent video signal lines and a pixel having the single TFT element with a source or drain connected to another of the two adjacent video signal lines,
• the plurality of pixels arranged between the two adjacent video signal lines extending in the column direction in the second display region alternately include a pixel having the single TFT element with a source or a drain connected to one of the two adjacent video signal lines and a pixel having the single TFT element with a source or a drain connected to an other of the two adjacent video signal lines,
• gates of all of TFT elements in the plurality of pixels arranged between the two adjacent scanning signal lines extending in the row direction in the first display region are connected to only one of the two adjacent scanning signal lines,
• gates of all of TFT elements in the plurality of pixels arranged between the two adjacent scanning signal lines extending in the row direction in the second display region are connected only to one of the two adjacent scanning signal lines,
• the counter electrodes in adjacent pixels of the column direction in the first display region are electrically connected with a bridge wire,
• the counter electrodes in adjacent pixels of the column direction in the second display region are electrically connected with a bridge wire,
• the bridge wire is formed on a layer different from a layer on which the counter electrodes are formed,
• the counter electrodes in adjacent pixels in the first display region and the counter electrodes in adjacent pixels in the second display region with the border line in between are connected with only a connection portion formed on a same layer as the layer on which the counter electrodes are formed, and
• the connection portion of the counter electrode of adjacent pixels with the border line in between is thinner than a width of each of the counter electrodes of the adjacent pixels.
