DISPLAY PANEL DEVICE WITH A LIGHT-PERMEABLE FRONT SHEET
A display panel device includes a front sheet that is glued on a front face of a plasma display panel. The front sheet includes a mesh made of a light shield member that has a blackened front surface and a plane size larger than a screen. A length between diagonal lattice points of the mesh is shorter than a cell pitch that is longer one of the cell pitches in the vertical direction and the horizontal direction of the screen. An arrangement direction of the mesh is inclined with respect to an arrangement direction of the cells in the screen.
1 . A plasma display device comprising plasma display panel and a light-permeable front sheet that is glued onto a front face of the plasma display panel,
wherein the front sheet includes an electromagnetic shield layer, and a shock absorbing layer made of a soft resin and glued onto the electromagnetic shield layer;
the electromagnetic shield layer includes a conductive layer of a mesh pattern; and
the soft resin of the shock absorbing layer enters space of the mesh pattern.
2 . The plasma display device according to claim 1 ,
wherein adhesion between the front sheet and the plasma display panel is weaker than adhesion between the electromagnetic shield layer and the shock absorbing layer.
3 . The plasma display device according to claim 2 ,
wherein the front sheet includes an optical film layer which is disposed on a front side of the electromagnetic shield layer.
4 . The plasma display device according to claim 2 ,
wherein the mesh pattern is a light shield member having a blackened surface.
5 . The plasma display device according to claim 4 ,
wherein a distance between diagonal lattice points of the mesh pattern is shorter than a longer one of cell pitches in a vertical direction and in a horizontal direction of the plasma display panel,
a plane size of the mesh pattern is larger than a plane size of a screen of the plasma display panel, and
an arrangement direction of meshes of the mesh pattern is inclined relative to an arrangement direction of cells in the screen.
6 . The plasma display device according to claim 2 , further comprising a conductive housing covering the plasma display panel,
wherein the electromagnetic shield layer contacts with the conductive housing in the front sheet.
7 . The plasma display device according to claim 2 ,
wherein the electromagnetic shield layer is formed of PET (polyethylene terephthalate) and copper.
8 . The plasma display device according to claim 2 ,
wherein the front sheet comprises, in front of the electromagnetic shield layer, a visible light transmittance adjusting layer that adjusts transmittance of visible light.
