Abstract

A first wiring plate is a flexible wiring plate to be directly connected to a display panel, and includes a first connector. The first connector is directly connected to a second connector included in a second wiring plate to be directly connected to the display panel.

Claims (45)

1. A flexible wiring plate pair comprising:

a flexible wiring plate to be connected to a display panel; and

a different flexible wiring plate to be connected to the display panel,

wherein the flexible wiring plate includes a first connector, and

the first connector is directly connected to a second connector included in the different flexible wiring plate, and

wherein the different flexible wiring plate includes a second body, and a second arm extending, in a shape of a narrow elongation, from part of an edge of one end of the second body, and

the second connector is disposed in the second arm.

2. The flexible wiring plate pair according to claim 1 ,

wherein the flexible wiring plate includes a first body, and a first arm extending, in a shape of a narrow elongation, from part of an edge of one end of the first body, and

the first connector is disposed in the first arm.

3. The flexible wiring plate pair according to claim 2 ,

wherein the first arm overlaps with at least part of the different flexible wiring plate in a plan view of the flexible wiring plate when the flexible wiring plate and the different flexible wiring plate are disposed in the display panel.

4. The flexible wiring plate pair according to claim 2 ,

wherein the first connector is disposed in a position not overlapping with the second connector in the plan view of the flexible wiring plate when the flexible wiring plate and the different flexible wiring plate are disposed in the display panel.

5. The flexible wiring plate pair according to claim 2 ,

wherein a surface of the first arm on which the first connector is disposed faces an identical direction with a surface of the different flexible wiring plate on which the second connector is disposed, when the flexible wiring plate and the different flexible wiring plate are disposed in the display panel.

6. The flexible wiring plate pair according to claim 2 ,

wherein in the case where the first connector has an elongated shape and the second connector has an elongated shape,

a longitudinal direction of the first connector is substantially orthogonal to a longitudinal direction of the second connector when the flexible wiring plate and the different flexible wiring plate are disposed in the display panel.

7. The flexible wiring plate pair according to claim 2 ,

wherein the first arm includes a first protrusion extending in a first direction, and a second protrusion extending from the first protrusion in a second direction different from the first direction,

the first connector has an elongated shape, and

the first connector is disposed in the second protrusion such that a longitudinal direction of the first connector is substantially orthogonal to the second direction.

8. The flexible wiring plate pair according to claim 2 ,

wherein the first arm includes a first protrusion extending in a first direction, and a second protrusion extending from the first protrusion in a second direction different from the first direction,

the first connector has an elongated shape, and

the first connector is disposed in the second protrusion such that a longitudinal direction of the first connector is substantially parallel to the second direction.

9. The flexible wiring plate pair according to claim 2 ,

wherein the flexible wiring plate has an elongated shape, and

the first arm extends in a longitudinal direction of the flexible wiring plate.

10. A display device, comprising:

the display panel; and

the flexible wiring plate pair according to claim 1 .

11. A flexible wiring plate pair comprising:

a flexible wiring plate to be connected to a display panel; and

a different flexible wiring plate to be connected to the display panel,

wherein the flexible wiring plate includes a first connector, and

the first connector is directly connected to a second connector included in the different flexible wiring plate, and

wherein the flexible wiring plate includes a first body, and a first arm extending, in a shape of a narrow elongation, from part of an edge of one end of the first body, and

the flexible wiring plate is directly connected to the different flexible wiring plate by folding the first arm, and

wherein the different flexible wiring plate includes a second body, and a second arm extending, in a shape of a narrow elongation, from part of an edge of one end of the second body, and

the second connector is disposed in the second arm.

12. A display device, comprising:

the display panel; and

the flexible wiring plate pair according to claim 11 .
