Liquid crystal display panel
View Patent ↗In a liquid crystal display panel, by controlling the number or a size of a support member added to a seal pattern for attaching two substrate of a liquid crystal display panel to each other, in case that the seal pattern is formed at an upper surface of a black matrix or of an over-coast layer formed of an organic film material, outer air is prevented from flowing into an image display part, and the seal pattern is prevented from being broken, so that it may be minimized that a deficiency occurs in the liquid crystal display panel.
1. A liquid crystal display panel, comprises:
a black matrix on a first substrate;
a color filter on the first substrate corresponding to a pixel region;
an overcoat layer on the black matrix and the color filter, wherein the overcoat layer is organic;
a seal pattern on the overcoat layer;
a second substrate attached to the first substrate by the seal pattern;
a spacer between the first substrate and the second substrate to maintain uniformly a cell gap therebetween; and
a support member added to the seal pattern,
wherein about 550 or fewer support members are applied in at least one unit area of 1 mm×1 mm of the seal pattern and the support members of the seal pattern is smaller than the cell gap between the first and second substrate in the pixel region.
2. The liquid crystal display panel of claim 1 , wherein the black matrix is formed of a resin material.
3. The liquid crystal display panel of claim 2 , wherein the black matrix is extended to a region where the seal pattern is formed.
4. The liquid crystal display panel of claim 1 , wherein the seal pattern is formed on the edge portion of the substrate so as to partially overlap with the black matrix.
5. The liquid crystal display panel of claim 1 , wherein the black matrix and the over-coat layer are laminated.
6. The liquid crystal display panel of claim 1 , further comprising a common electrode formed at an upper surface of the organic film, wherein the seal pattern is formed at an upper surface of the common electrode.
7. The liquid crystal display panel of claim 1 , wherein the support member is a glass ball.
8. The liquid crystal display panel of claim 1 , wherein the support member is a glass fiber.
9. The liquid crystal display panel of claim 1 , wherein the support member is added to the seal pattern at a weight ratio of about 1% of support member to sealant of the seal pattern.
10. The liquid crystal display panel of claim 1 , wherein a diameter of the support member is within about 1 μm of the gap.
11. A liquid crystal display panel, comprises:
a black matrix on a first substrate;
a color filter on the first substrate corresponding to a pixel region;
an overcoat layer on the black matrix and the color filter, wherein the overcoat layer is organic;
a seal pattern on the overcoat layer;
a second substrate attached to the first substrate by the seal pattern;
a spacer between the first substrate and the second substrate to maintain uniformly a cell gap therebetween; and
a support member added to the seal pattern,
wherein the support members are added to the seal pattern at a weight ratio of less than 1% to a sealant of the seal pattern and the support members of the seal pattern is smaller than the cell gap between the first and second substrate in the pixel region.
12. The liquid crystal display panel of claim 11 , wherein the black matrix is made of a resin material.
13. The liquid crystal display panel of claim 12 , wherein the black matrix is extended to a region where the seal pattern is formed.
14. The liquid crystal display panel of claim 11 , wherein the seal pattern is formed on the edge portion of the substrate so as to partially overlap with the black matrix.
15. The liquid crystal display panel of claim 11 , wherein the black matrix and the over-coat layer are laminated.
16. The liquid crystal display panel of claim 11 , further comprising a common electrode on the organic film, wherein the seal pattern is formed at an upper surface of the common electrode.
17. The liquid crystal display panel of claim 11 , wherein the support member is a glass fiber.
18. The liquid crystal display panel of claim 11 , wherein the support member is a glass ball.
19. The liquid crystal display panel of claim 11 , wherein the support member is added to the seal pattern at a weight ratio of between about 0.005% to about 0.95% of a sealant of the seal pattern.
20. The liquid crystal display panel of claim 11 , wherein a diameter of the support member is within about 1 μm of the gap.
