Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2000-165009 (see FIG. 1)

従来、可撓性配線基板は、カバーフィルムにより被覆されていない電極端子部にのみ導電性補強材のメッキが施されていたため、この電極端子部を液晶表示素子の電極端子部に接続し、小型化等のために可撓性配線基板を折り曲げて使用した場合、可撓性配線基板の電極端子部における導電性補強材の先端が当接しているカバーフィルムの端縁近傍において、可撓性配線基板の導電路に断線が生じることがあった。   Conventionally, a flexible wiring board has been plated with a conductive reinforcing material only on an electrode terminal portion that is not covered with a cover film. Therefore, the electrode terminal portion is connected to the electrode terminal portion of a liquid crystal display element, and is compact. When the flexible wiring board is bent for use, for example, in the vicinity of the edge of the cover film where the tip of the conductive reinforcing material is in contact with the electrode terminal portion of the flexible wiring board, Disconnection may occur in the conductive path of the substrate.

In the flexible wiring board connection structure of a liquid crystal display element, in which a terminal portion is electrically connected and a reinforcing material is provided between the liquid crystal display element and the flexible wiring board, the flexible wiring board And a mark for defining the supply amount of the reinforcing material.

また、本発明は、前記目印を前記導電路と同一材料としたものである。   In the present invention, the mark is made of the same material as the conductive path.

また、本発明は、前記目印は帯状をしており、前記補強材の端部が前記帯状の目印の幅の中に位置するものである。   In the present invention, the mark has a band shape, and an end portion of the reinforcing material is positioned within a width of the band-shaped mark.

本発明によれば、所期の目的を達成でき、補強材の適切な供給量を供給することが可能な液晶表示素子の可撓性配線基板接続構造を提供することができる。   ADVANTAGE OF THE INVENTION According to this invention, the flexible wiring board connection structure of the liquid crystal display element which can achieve the intended objective and can supply the appropriate supply amount of a reinforcing material can be provided.

以下、本発明を適用した第1実施形態を添付図面に基づいて説明する。   Hereinafter, a first embodiment to which the present invention is applied will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

本発明は、液晶表示素子1と可撓性配線基板2との接続構造である。   The present invention is a connection structure between the liquid crystal display element 1 and the flexible wiring board 2.

液晶表示素子1は、2枚のガラス基板3、4間に液晶を封入したものである。なお、5は、液晶表示素子1を駆動するICであり、ガラス基板4上に実装されている。また、6は、液晶表示素子1の図示しない電極端子部やIC5を保護する樹脂からなる保護材である。   The liquid crystal display element 1 is one in which liquid crystal is sealed between two glass substrates 3 and 4. Reference numeral 5 denotes an IC for driving the liquid crystal display element 1 and is mounted on the glass substrate 4. Reference numeral 6 denotes a protective material made of a resin for protecting the electrode terminal portions (not shown) of the liquid crystal display element 1 and the IC 5.

可撓性配線基板2は、ポリイミド樹脂等の絶縁性素材からなる基材7上に、銅等の導電性素材により所定パターンの導電路8が複数形成されたものである。この導電路8は、一部を除き絶縁性素材からなるカバーフィルム9により被覆され、露出された導電路8には、ニッケル、金等の導電性補強材のメッキが施され電極端子部10が形成されている。   The flexible wiring board 2 is obtained by forming a plurality of conductive paths 8 having a predetermined pattern on a base material 7 made of an insulating material such as polyimide resin, using a conductive material such as copper. The conductive path 8 is covered with a cover film 9 made of an insulating material except for a part. The exposed conductive path 8 is plated with a conductive reinforcing material such as nickel or gold, and the electrode terminal portion 10 is formed. Is formed.

可撓性配線基板2の電極端子部10と液晶表示素子1の前記電極端子部とは、電気的に接続されている。本実施形態では、可撓性配線基板2の電極端子部10と液晶表示素子1の前記電極端子部との間に異方性導電膜を介して電気的に接続されている。   The electrode terminal portion 10 of the flexible wiring board 2 and the electrode terminal portion of the liquid crystal display element 1 are electrically connected. In the present embodiment, the electrode terminal portion 10 of the flexible wiring board 2 and the electrode terminal portion of the liquid crystal display element 1 are electrically connected via an anisotropic conductive film.

また、液晶表示素子1の端面11と可撓性配線基板2との間に補強材12が塗布されて設けられている。本実施形態では、補強材12は、紫外線硬化型のアクリル系の接着剤である。   A reinforcing material 12 is applied between the end face 11 of the liquid crystal display element 1 and the flexible wiring board 2. In this embodiment, the reinforcing material 12 is an ultraviolet curable acrylic adhesive.

可撓性配線基板2には、補強材12の供給量を規定する目印13が形成されている。この目印13は、導電路8と同一材料にて形成されており、導電路8形成時に同時に形成される。   On the flexible wiring board 2, a mark 13 that defines the supply amount of the reinforcing material 12 is formed. The mark 13 is made of the same material as that of the conductive path 8 and is formed at the same time when the conductive path 8 is formed.

目印13は、複数形成された導電路8のうち、両端の導電路8aに形成されている。目印13は、両端の導電路8aから液晶表示素子1の端面11に沿って形成されており、さらに、液晶表示素子1の端面11に対して垂直方向の幅Wを備えた帯状をしており、液晶表示素子1の端面11に沿って塗布される補強材12の端部12aが帯状の2つの目印12の幅Wの中に位置している。目印13の幅Wの間に、補強材12の端部12aが位置していれば、補強材12の供給量が適切である。   The marks 13 are formed on the conductive paths 8a at both ends among the plurality of conductive paths 8 formed. The mark 13 is formed along the end surface 11 of the liquid crystal display element 1 from the conductive paths 8a at both ends, and has a strip shape with a width W in the direction perpendicular to the end surface 11 of the liquid crystal display element 1. The end portion 12a of the reinforcing material 12 applied along the end surface 11 of the liquid crystal display element 1 is positioned within the width W of the two band-shaped marks 12. If the end portion 12a of the reinforcing material 12 is located between the widths W of the marks 13, the supply amount of the reinforcing material 12 is appropriate.

なお、両端の導電路8aは、液晶表示素子1と可動性配線基板2との電気的な接続には、関係していない。また、この両端の導電路8aには、可撓性配線基板2と液晶表示素子1との位置を決める位置決めマーク14が設けられている。この位置決めマーク14は、導電路8aと一体に形成されたものであり、本実施形態では、液晶表示素子1の端面11に沿った凸部である。   Note that the conductive paths 8a at both ends are not related to the electrical connection between the liquid crystal display element 1 and the movable wiring board 2. Further, positioning marks 14 for determining the positions of the flexible wiring board 2 and the liquid crystal display element 1 are provided in the conductive paths 8a at both ends. The positioning mark 14 is formed integrally with the conductive path 8a, and is a convex portion along the end surface 11 of the liquid crystal display element 1 in this embodiment.

このように、液晶表示素子1と可撓性配線基板2との位置決めマーク14を設けた導電路8aに補強材12の供給量を規定する目印13を設けたことによって、液晶表示素子1と可撓性配線基板2との固定位置を所定の位置に固定することができるとともに、液晶表示素子1の端面11から目印13までの位置も所定の位置に定めることができる。   In this way, by providing the mark 13 for defining the supply amount of the reinforcing material 12 in the conductive path 8a provided with the positioning mark 14 between the liquid crystal display element 1 and the flexible wiring board 2, the liquid crystal display element 1 can be used. The fixing position with the flexible wiring board 2 can be fixed at a predetermined position, and the position from the end surface 11 of the liquid crystal display element 1 to the mark 13 can also be set at the predetermined position.

また、両端の導電路8aの一つ内側の導電路8bも目印13の一部を構成するものであり、目印13の液晶表示素子1から離れた側の辺を構成するものである。   Further, the conductive path 8b inside one of the conductive paths 8a at both ends also constitutes a part of the mark 13, and constitutes the side of the mark 13 on the side away from the liquid crystal display element 1.

以上のように構成したことによって、補強材12を供給する量を過不足無く適切にすることができ、導電路8の断線の発生や、供給量の過剰にともなうコストの増大を抑えることができる。   By comprising as mentioned above, the quantity which supplies the reinforcing material 12 can be made appropriate without excess and deficiency, and generation | occurrence | production of the disconnection of the conductive path 8 and the increase in cost accompanying the excess supply quantity can be suppressed. .

また、目印は、第1実施形態のように導電路8aと同一の材料で形成する必要はなく、例えば、図4で示す第2実施形態のように、目印15は、シルク印刷によって形成されるパターンであってもよい。この場合、目印15は、カバーフィルム9上に形成される。本実施形態においても、補強材12を供給する量を過不足無く適切にすることができ、導電路8の断線の発生や、供給量の過剰にともなうコストの増大を抑えることができる。   Further, it is not necessary to form the mark with the same material as that of the conductive path 8a as in the first embodiment. For example, as in the second embodiment shown in FIG. 4, the mark 15 is formed by silk printing. It may be a pattern. In this case, the mark 15 is formed on the cover film 9. Also in the present embodiment, the amount of the reinforcing material 12 supplied can be made appropriate without excess or deficiency, and the occurrence of disconnection of the conductive path 8 and the increase in cost due to the excessive supply amount can be suppressed.
