First Claim
Patent Images
1. An electronic ink display device comprising:
- a first substrate having display pixels;
a second substrate laid over the first substrate and having an electronic ink layer on its lower major surface, the electronic ink layer having a space terminating at a position with a predetermined distance receding from the periphery of the second substrate; and
a seal which fills the space and is laminated on the first substrate to cover at least part of the peripheral edge of the second substrate.

Abstract
The invention provides an electronic ink display device having a panel structure of reduced thickness and enhanced moisture resistance and a method for manufacturing the same. The electronic ink display device has a first substrate (10) having display pixels, a second substrate (16) laid over the first substrate and having an electronic ink layer (13) on its lower major surface, the electronic ink layer having a space (26) terminating at a position with a predetermined distance receding from the periphery of the second substrate, and a seal (27) which fills the space and is laminated on the first substrate to cover at least part of the peripheral edge of the second substrate.

5. A method for manufacturing an electronic ink display device comprising the steps of:
-
laminating onto a first substrate containing display pixels a second substrate having at least an underlying electronic ink layer, selectively removing the electronic ink layer to terminate it at a position with a given distance receding from the periphery of the second substrate, and after the step of selectively removing the electronic ink layer, filling the resultant space with sealing material and laminating the sealing material on the first substrate to cover at least part of the peripheral edge of the second substrate. - View Dependent Claims (6)
