FLAT PANEL DISPLAY
First Claim
1. A flat panel display, comprising:
- a display panel;
a flexible wiring substrate;
wherein the display panel includes a display area and a bonding area arranged at outside of the display area, and the flexible wiring substrate and the display panel are joined together at the bonding area;
wherein the display panel includes multiple first metal joining surfaces in the bonding area, the flexible wiring substrate includes multiple second metal joining surfaces in an area thereon corresponding to the bonding area, and one the first metal joining surface and one the second metal joining surface corresponding thereto are joined to form an electrical contact;
wherein the first metal joining surface and the second metal joining surface have a same shape;
wherein the first metal joining surface includes a first transverse part arranged transversely and a first longitudinal part connected vertically to the first transverse part, and an area occupied by the first transverse part along a transverse direction is larger than an area occupied by the first longitudinal part along the transverse direction; and
wherein the second metal joining surface includes a second transverse part arranged transversely and a second longitudinal part connected vertically to the second transverse part, and an area occupied by the second transverse part along the transverse direction is larger than an area occupied by the second longitudinal part along the transverse direction.

Abstract
A flat panel display is provided. A first metal joining surface on a display panel includes a first transverse part and a first longitudinal part, and the area occupied by the first transverse part along a transverse direction is larger than the area occupied by the first longitudinal part along the transverse direction. A second metal joining surface on a flexible wiring substrate includes a second transverse part and a second longitudinal part, and the area occupied by the second transverse part along the transverse direction is larger than the area occupied by the second longitudinal part along the transverse direction. The above design can increase the contact area between the first metal joining surface and the second metal joining surface after the expanding offset between the display panel and the flexible wiring substrate occurring in a thermal joining process, to guarantee electrical signals transmitting normally and improve displaying effect.
