Abstract

A display device includes a display panel device and a frame configured to hold the display panel device. The display panel device includes a first magnetic adherent. The frame includes a second adherent. The display panel device is adhered to the frame via the first adherent and the second adherent, such that the display panel device is removable from the frame for rework without damaging the first adherent and the second adherent.

Claims (24)

1. A display device, comprising:

a display panel device including a first magnetic adherent; and

a frame configured to hold the display panel device and including a second adherent, wherein the display panel device is adhered to the frame via the first adherent and the second adherent, such that the display panel device is removable from the frame for rework without damaging the first adherent and the second adherent; and wherein the first adherent includes a single-sided magnetic tape including an adhesive side and a magnetic side, the magnetic tape adhered by the adhesive side to the frame, wherein the second adherent includes a glue adhered to the display panel device, the glue formed around a perimeter of the display panel device and substantially collocated with the magnetic tape, the glue including material that is magnetically attracted to the magnetic side of the magnetic tape.

2. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the magnetic tape is formed around a perimeter of the frame.

3. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the glue includes one of a silicon adhesive and an epoxy adhesive.

4. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the material is a magnetic material.

5. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the material is a magnetizable material.

6. The display device of claim 5 , wherein the magnetizable material includes one of iron, cobalt, and nickel.

7. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the display panel device is magnetically adhered to the frame with an adhesion level of greater than 60 grams per square millimeter.

8. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the display panel device is adhered to the frame with an adhesion level of less than 120 grams per square millimeter.

9. A method, comprising:

providing a display panel device of a display device, the display panel device including a first magnetic adherent;

providing a frame of the display device, the frame including a second magnetic adherent and configured to hold a display panel device of the display device; and

magnetically adhering the display panel device to the frame via the first adherent and the second adherent, such that the display panel device is removable from the frame for rework without damaging the first adherent and the second adherent, wherein the first adherent includes a single-sided magnetic tape to the frame, the magnetic tape including an adhesive side and a magnetic side, the magnetic tape adhered by the adhesive side to the frame, wherein the second adherent includes a glue adhered to the display panel device, the glue formed around a perimeter of the display panel device and substantially collocated with the magnetic tape, the glue including material that is magnetically attracted to the magnetic side of the magnetic tape.

10. The method of claim 9 wherein the magnetic tape is formed around a perimeter of the frame.

11. The method of claim 9 , wherein the glue includes one of a silicon adhesive and an epoxy adhesive.

12. The method of claim 9 , wherein the material is a magnetic material.

13. The method of claim 9 , wherein the material is a magnetizable material.

14. The method of claim 13 , wherein the magnetizable material includes one of iron, cobalt, and nickel.

15. The method of claim 9 , wherein the display panel device is magnetically adhered to the frame with an adhesion level of greater than 60 grams per square millimeter.

16. The method of claim 9 , wherein the display panel device is adhered to the frame with an adhesion level of less than 120 grams per square millimeter.

17. A display device comprising:

a protective cover including a first magnetic adherent; and

a frame configured to hold the protective cover and including a second adherent, wherein the protective cover is adhered to the frame via the first adherent and the second adherent, such that the protective cover is removable from the frame for rework without damaging the first adherent and the second adherent, wherein the first adherent includes a single-sided magnetic tape including an adhesive side and a magnetic side, the magnetic tape adhered by the adhesive side to the frame, wherein the second adherent includes a glue adhered to the display panel device, the glue formed around a perimeter of the display panel device and substantially collocated with the magnetic tape, the glue including material that is magnetically attracted to the magnetic side of the magnetic tape.
