Abstract

A liquid crystal display panel includes a substrate, a thin film transistor array, a circuit, and a dummy circuit. One surface of the substrate is divided into a display region and a wiring region. The thin film transistor array is formed on the display region. The circuit and the dummy circuit are formed on the wiring region, the dummy circuit is adjacent to the circuit, and the circuit and the dummy circuit protrude from the substrate.

Claims (14)

1. A liquid crystal display panel, comprising:

a substrate having a surface, wherein the surface has a display region and a wiring region located outside of the display region;

a thin film transistor array formed on the display region;

a plurality of first circuits formed on the wiring region and adjacent to a first edge of the display region, wherein the first circuits are electrically connected to the thin film transistor array; and

a plurality of first support structures formed on the wiring region adjacent to the first circuits and the first edge of the display region, and disposed separately along the first edge, wherein the first circuits are arranged alternately with the first support structures, and one of the first circuits is arranged between two first support structures, and the first support structures have no electrical connection with the thin film transistor array.

2. The liquid crystal display panel of claim 1 , wherein at least one gap between the first circuits is filled with at least one of the first support structures.

3. The liquid crystal display panel of claim 1 , wherein the first circuits and the first support structures are arranged in a line.

4. The liquid crystal display panel of claim 1 , further comprising a plurality of other support structures having no electrical connection with the thin film transistor array and a plurality of other circuits for electrically connecting the first circuits to the thin film transistor array, wherein the other circuits are arranged on the wiring region adjacent to a second edge of the display region.

5. The liquid crystal display panel of claim 4 , wherein the other support structures are disposed on the wiring region without the other circuits, and at least one other support structure is arranged on the wiring region among two other circuits and the second edge.

6. The liquid crystal display panel of claim 4 , wherein the other support structures are mated with each other to form a dummy patterned layer.

7. The liquid crystal display panel of claim 4 , wherein a thickness of the other circuits protruding from the surface of the substrate is substantially equal to a thickness of the other support structures.

8. The liquid crystal display panel of claim 1 , wherein a thickness of the first circuits protruding from the surface of the substrate is substantially equal to a thickness of the first support structures.

9. The liquid crystal display panel of claim 1 , wherein the first support structures are mated with each other to form a dummy patterned layer.

10. The liquid crystal display panel of claim 1 , further comprising an alignment film covered on the first circuits and the first support structures.
