Abstract

An organic electroluminescent (EL) panel unit includes: an organic EL panel that displays an image on a front surface thereof; and a plurality of sheet members attached to a panel back surface which is a back surface of the organic EL panel. The plurality of sheet members are each formed by rolling a metal sheet, and the plurality of sheet members include two sheet members that are attached to the panel back surface such that a portion of one of the two sheet members is disposed adjacent to a portion of the other sheet member and the two sheet members have mutually different rolling directions.

Claims (21)

1. An organic electroluminescent (EL) panel unit comprising:

an organic EL panel that displays an image on a front surface thereof; and

a plurality of sheet members attached to a panel back surface which is a back surface of the organic EL panel, the plurality of sheet members each being formed by rolling a metal sheet,

wherein the plurality of sheet members include a first sheet member and a second sheet member, and

the first sheet member and the second sheet member are attached to the panel back surface such that a portion of one of the first sheet member and the second sheet member is disposed adjacent to a portion of the other sheet member and the first sheet member and the second sheet member have mutually different rolling directions.

2. The organic EL panel unit according to claim 1 ,

wherein the first sheet member and the second sheet member are arranged in a direction parallel to the panel back surface and adhesively attached to the panel back surface.

3. The organic EL panel unit according to claim 2 ,

wherein the plurality of sheet members include a third sheet member that does not overlap the first sheet member and is disposed adjacent to the second sheet member, and

the third sheet member is adhesively attached to the panel back surface such that the third sheet member has a rolling direction different from the rolling direction of the second sheet member or the first sheet member.

4. The organic EL panel unit according to claim 3 ,

wherein the second sheet member is disposed between the first sheet member and the third sheet member, and

the third sheet member is adhesively attached to the panel back surface such that the third sheet member has a rolling direction different from the rolling direction of the second sheet member.

5. The organic EL panel unit according to claim 1 ,

wherein the first sheet member is adhesively attached to a perimeter region of the panel back surface, and the second sheet member is adhesively attached to an inner region located within the perimeter region of the panel back surface.

6. The organic EL panel unit according to claim 1 ,

wherein the first sheet member is adhesively attached to the panel back surface, and

the second sheet member is attached to the panel back surface by at least a portion of the second sheet member being adhesively attached to a surface of the first sheet member, the surface being on a side opposite a side facing the panel back surface.

7. An organic EL display apparatus comprising:

the organic EL panel unit according to claim 1 , and

a back cover disposed to cover at least a portion of the back surface of the organic EL panel unit.
