により2つの補色間の迅速な切替が可能である。The prior art and the problem that the invention seeks to solve: Liquid crystal cells have already been known for a long time and are described in detail in the literature. A conventional liquid crystal cell for a positive display changes its color to black when controlled, and the uncontrolled elements appear white or gray. A color change in a liquid-crystal cell is possible, for example, if one polarizer is placed before and after the cell and the cell is filled with a cholesteric liquid-crystal substance. Thereby, a color change is possible depending on the rotation of the plane of polarization when a voltage is applied. Furthermore, it is already known to mix dyes into the liquid-crystal cells themselves and thereby change the color within a certain range. This liquid crystal cell allows rapid switching between two complementary colors.
他の色は公知装置によれば切替できない。Other colors cannot be switched according to known devices.

Another advantage is that up to four colors can be switched. Furthermore, by using five primary colors, any color mixture can be created.

たとえばテレビ再生にも適する。The liquid crystal display device described in claim 1 or 2 can be advantageously improved by the means described in claims 3 to 7. In particular, the display of flexible color information is achieved by the cellular structure of the display device in the form of a matrix. The display device of the invention is therefore also suitable for flat video screen playback, for example television.
実施例: 次に本発明の2つの実施例を図面によシ説明する。Example: Next, two embodiments of the present invention will be explained with reference to the drawings.

For example, in the case of a car, economical or uneconomic driving methods can be displayed by switching, or in the case of a digital tachometer, when a certain speed is exceeded, it can be switched from a line to a red line. It can then be easily known whether a predetermined speed is exceeded or, for example, a predetermined high speed is exceeded.

見る。By changing the combination of polarizers, it is possible to shift to a positive three-color display. The structure of such a display device is shown in FIG. A polarizer 11, which is designed as a selective polarizer, follows the light source lO. For example, the polarizer 11 absorbs blue light. A liquid crystal cell 12 follows the selective polarizer 11 . A selective polarizer 21 that absorbs red light, for example, is arranged behind the liquid crystal cell 12. Another liquid crystal cell 15 follows the selective polarizer 21 . As in the first embodiment, the two liquid crystal cells are of the TN type in this case as well. The liquid crystal cell 15 is closed by a selective polarizer 22 which absorbs green light, for example. The observer 17 views the display device having such a configuration.

再び4種の可能性が生じ、観察者に4種の色が見える。The three polarizers 11, 21 and 22 absorb a certain spectrum of light vibrating in the optical plane, as indicated by arrows in the figure. Depending on the switched-on state of the liquid crystal cells 12 and 15, four possibilities arise again and four colors are visible to the viewer.

。Said arrangement not only allows switching between the three colors of the selective polarizer, but can also be used to generate color mixtures if the electrodes of the two liquid crystal cells 12 and 15 are controlled to be offset relative to each other. In this case, if an image change frequency is selected such that the eye can no longer follow the rapid temperature change, color mixture will accumulate in the human eye. Using a three-primary selective polarizer will display all colors within a color triangle containing three vertices.

用するためにも適する。Said liquid crystal display provides the possibility of switching colors without multiple color light sources, light guides or optical fibers. Due to its simple structure, it has a wide temperature range and is stable against external weather influences. The system is thereby also particularly suitable for use in motor vehicles.
