Abstract

Embodiments of the invention provide an array substrate, a liquid crystal display panel and a liquid crystal display device. The array substrate comprises a plurality of array substrate units, each of which comprising: gate lines and data lines extending along a first direction and a second direction crossing with each other, respectively, in a plane of a substrate. Each array substrate unit comprises four array substrate sub-units which are arranged in the first direction and the second direction to form sub-unit rows and sub-unit columns, and each of sub-unit rows and sub-unit columns has two array substrate sub-units. The three gate lines are shared by two array substrate sub-units in each sub-unit row, and the one data line and one of the gate lines are shared by two array substrate sub-units in each sub-unit column.
