Description

Plastic panel for each convertible display {Angular changeable display panel for display}

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to plastic panels for displays and, more particularly, to convertible plastic panels.

Recently, with the rapid development of various semiconductor component fields, various kinds of light weight and hard display devices providing fast response speed and wide viewing angle have been widely used. Typical display devices include, for example, liquid crystal displays (LCDs), light emitting diodes (LEDs), plasma display panels (PDPs), organic light emitting diodes (EL), and the like. A thin glass or plastic panel is installed on the screen.

On the other hand, as the display panel becomes lighter and larger in size to enable output of multiple screens, visual multi-interfaces for a plurality of adjacent devices using one large display panel in a physical dimension different from screen division or time division, etc. There are attempts to provide.

For example, in the automobile field, the instrument panel and the AV (Audio-Video) system are designed to use one display panel enlarged in the horizontal direction, and are implemented to output the instrument panel signal and the AV signal at each position of the panel, that is, the left and right sides. There is a case. Of course, the display panel is attached to the dashboard of the vehicle and fixed, and provides the necessary information in the front and side position relative to the driver.

This structure can be said to be advantageous over the conventional method in which a display panel is independently provided in terms of economy of device design, convenience in use, and the like. However, the display panel here is entirely in the form of a flat plate, so the instrument panel information is normally provided in front of the driver, so there is no inconvenience in checking, but since the AV information is provided from the driver's side, the information must be moved only when the upper body is moved left and right. It is possible to confirm precisely. Therefore, not only is the driver uncomfortable, but it can also lead to a big accident if driving.

As another example, Korean Laid-Open Patent Publication No. 2002-65108 discloses that a flat panel display panel is enlarged to have a rectangular or curved shape to enable a multi-screen output of a computer, a monitor, a TV, and the like, and a ball joint is installed at the center of the rear surface thereof. Disclosed is a display apparatus which can be used while adjusting the angle of the entire display panel by rotating the display panel on a support. However, it is not possible to install a display panel for an instrument panel-AV system in a car in a rotatable manner.

Therefore, as a countermeasure, as shown in FIG. 1, the interior of the horizontal rectangular display panel is processed into a curved surface of the approximate boundary 4 of the instrument panel portion 2 and the AV portion 3, and thus, the interior angles θ1 in which both portions 2 and 3 are defined. By manufacturing and attaching the display panel 1 arranged in the vehicle, the right AV information may be more easily identified from the driver's point of view. However, there are some problems here.

First, the display panel 1 usually uses a hard sheet material having a thickness of 1.0 to 2 mm in consideration of scratch resistance and rigidity, and is heat-forming in order to process it to achieve a predetermined angle θ1 as necessary. Banding molding should be performed, and this molding process, cost, time, etc. are very disadvantageous, resulting in extremely weak productivity. In this case, it was confirmed that about one hour of heat-forming is required in the mold to complete one display panel 1.

Second, in order to manufacture the display panel applied to each automobile, several sets of molds are required to correspond to the total size, required placement angle, and production quantity. Obviously, huge investment costs are required to have a.

Third, the display panel 1 manufactured as described above has a fixed internal angle θ1 and is attached to and fixed to an edge portion of a frame formed at the same angle as, for example, a dashboard of a car, where the internal angle θ1 is the edge thereof. If it does not exactly match the installation angle of the part-this is often the case-the display panel 1 does not adhere closely to the frame and there is a considerable amount of gap between both members or the panel 1 is cracked or damaged. Will be.

The present invention is proposed to solve the above problems of the conventional display panel. An object of the present invention is to provide a flexible section on the display plastic panel, so that the angle can be easily converted as needed, thereby dramatically improving the economics and productivity of the plastic panel manufacturing, and at the same time the installation angle of the mounting edge portion Another object is to provide a plastic panel for a display that can be mounted in a flexible manner.

The plastic panel of the present invention is:
On the plastic panel body,
A plurality of non-flexible screens arranged in a plane as output screens for each display device,
A flexible section formed between each screen to divide the plurality of screens adjacently,
Formed integrally with one another;
As the section is formed to a thickness thinner than the screen free banding characteristics are implemented;
The adjacent screens are capable of arbitrarily transforming mutual cabinets according to the bending characteristics of the sections;
It is characterized by.

Preferably, the prosthesis is:

A curved body part disposed in close contact with the section;

A support part protruding outward from the body part to support and support the screen;

It is made, including.

The prosthetic sphere may be composed of a material selected from metal and plastic.

According to the display plastic panel of the present invention, a plurality of display output screens divided into left, right, and up and down by the flexible section of one plastic panel are configured to enable arbitrary angle conversion of the mutual angles.

therefore:

1) From the driver's or user's point of view, it is easy to check the information provided through each output screen of the display panel without excessively moving the upper body or neck part;

2) in manufacturing, by simply chamfering one surface of the panel body to implement the sections and the plurality of screens, the production is easier and the productivity is superior to that of, for example, a molding method by heat-forming;

3) Since the plurality of screens are not limited to a predetermined angle, and can be arbitrarily set in each setting and changeable, they can be firmly attached and installed in a flexible manner corresponding to the installation angle or shape of the field object;

4) when the prosthetic sphere is applied to the flexible section, to improve the stability and workability of the display panel and its installation;

Features and effects of the present invention 'each convertible display plastic panel' (hereinafter referred to as 'plastic panel') described above or not described will become more apparent through the following description of the embodiments described with reference to the accompanying drawings. . In the drawings below, reference numeral 10 denotes a plastic panel according to the invention.

Referring to FIG. 2, the plastic panel 10 of the present invention is basically a rigid plastic panel body 11, and has a flexible section integrally formed between the output screens 13 and 14 of the body 11. 12) and the plurality of screens 13 and 14 which are adjacently divided by the section 12. Here, the adjacent first screen 13 and the second screen 14 of the screens are the respective display output screens of the main body 11, and the internal cabinets (FIG. 4 of FIG. Arbitrary conversion of symbol 'θ2' is possible.

For example, the plastic panel 10 is a plastic panel for an automobile display, and the first screen 13 and the second screen 14 are assigned to the instrument panel and the AV system, respectively, of the panel 10 or the main body 11. It is a non-flexible display output screen.

In detail, the section 12 may be provided with a flexible property, for example, by applying a different material. However, since the manufacturing process is complicated, the first screen 13 and the first screen 13 of the panel main body 11 may be made. As the thickness d is thinner than the thickness D of the two screens 14, the flexible characteristics and the free banding characteristics in the section 12 are reduced despite the hardness and strength of the main body 11. It is configured to be implemented. The panel body 11 may be selected from optical PET, PC, PMMA plastic sheet or a composite plastic sheet in which two or more of them are laminated, and the thickness (D) in consideration of its hardness and strength. Is approximately 1.0 to 2 mm.

Here, the section 12 may be formed by chamfering the back side surface of the main body 11 by about 0.5 to 1.5 mm with CNC equipment, and thus, the thinning section 12 is naturally implemented with a flexible characteristic. . In the present embodiment, the section 12 is configured by chamfering the back side surface of the main body 11, but may be configured by chamfering the front side or both side surfaces of the main body (11).

Alternatively, referring to FIG. 3, a plurality of sheets are laminated to implement the thickness D of the main body 11, but 0.5 to 1.5 mm sheets 11 b are formed on both sides of the 0.5 mm base sheet 11 a. It may be laminated so that a thin thickness d section 12 is formed between both lamination sheets. In practice, the thickness d of the section 12 in the display panel 10 is preferably 0.2 to 0.5 mm.

In this manner, a flexible section 12 integrally formed between the output screens 13 and 14 is formed on the main body 11, and the first surface 13 of the main body 11 is formed by the section 12. The second surface 14 may be divided adjacently. The direction of the section 12 is shown as being the horizontal direction of the main body 11, but may vary depending on the design, such as horizontal, vertical or horizontal × vertical. This method is considered to be much more advantageous in terms of manufacturability, economical efficiency, productivity, design diversity, applicability of installation, and the like, compared to the form-fixing method by heat-forming.

On the other hand, in a typical simple flat display panel, necessary printing will be formed on the back of the panel body for its durability and durability. However, if it is applied here as it is, due to the step due to the formation of the section 12, printing may be poor or impossible on the back surface formed with the section 12 of the body (11). Therefore, in the display panel 10 of the present embodiment, it is assumed that the necessary printed layer 15 is formed on the opposite side on which the section 12 of the panel body 11 is formed, and the coating layer 16 is formed on the surface thereof.

In the figure, the thicknesses of the printed layer 15 and the coating layer 16 are ignored.

Referring to FIG. 4, the plastic panel 10 of FIGS. 2 and 3 described above has an internal angle θ2 between the first screen 13 and the second screen 14 due to the free bending characteristics of the section 12. ') Arbitrary conversion is possible.

Referring to FIG. 5, the plastic panel 10 may be attached and installed in a manner that is bonded to the frame P formed at the vehicle dashboard side. As a matter of course, the installation angle θ3 is formed around the predetermined round R1. Thus, the section 12 is joined when the section 12 is freely bent in correspondence to the round R1 when or before the plastic panel 10 is installed, and then the first screen 13 and the second screen are joined. 14 forms an inner angle θ2 of each other, and is close to the edge of the frame P corresponding to the installation angle θ3.

However, the elements R1 and θ3 of the frame P may be deformed finely depending on the environment of storage and work. In this case, the section 12 flexibly corresponds to the shape. When the plastic panel 10 is installed, the flexible section 12 is bent in correspondence to the round R1, and edges of the first screen 13 and the second screen 14 are formed at the edge of the frame P. FIG. Will be closely bonded.

This is because the plurality of screens 13 and 14 in the present invention are not limited to a predetermined angle, and can be arbitrarily attached and installed in a flexible manner corresponding to the installation angle θ3 or the shape of the field object as the arbitrary angle setting and the conversion thereof are possible. Because it can be. In this case, for the closeness between the frame P and the plastic panel 10, a protrusion 21 corresponding to the chamfered portion of the section 12 may be formed in the round R1 portion of the frame P. .

On the other hand, by applying a separate support prosthesis 17 to the flexible section 12 in order to prevent the plastic panel 10, in particular the section 12 is too flexible, the stability and work of the frame (P) installation You will be able to improve your castle.

6 and 7, the section 12 may be excessively flexible due to a thin thickness d, and may be vulnerable in terms of durability and bending, and thus, the plastic panel of the present embodiment ( 10) is a prosthetic means having a predetermined curvature R, which is provided to be inserted into the recessed portion by the thin thickness d of the section 12 to reinforce the section 12 banded with the same curvature R. And a prosthetic tool 17 to prosthetic.

Specifically, the prosthetic sphere 17 is a plate-like material, the 'R' curved body portion 18 is disposed in close contact in the section 12, and formed to protrude outward from the upper and lower ends of the body portion 18 And a support 19 for contacting and supporting the back side surfaces of the first screen 13 and the second screen 14. The shape of the prosthesis 17 reinforces and prostheses the section 12 and simultaneously converts the converted cabinet θ2 formed between the first screen 13 and the second screen 14 by the bending of the section 12. Can support.

The prosthetic sphere 17 is not limited to the material, but may preferably be composed of a material selected from metal and plastic.

The main body 11 of the plastic panel 10 has an arbitrary internal angle between the first surface 13 and the second surface 14 by free bending of the section 12 as in the case of FIGS. 2 and 3. θ2) is arranged to be in the range of approximately 120 ° to 170 °, wherein the inner angle θ2 is set or supported by the prosthetic sphere 17. For example, if the internal angle θ2 is required to be 150 °, the prosthetic sphere 17 having the curvature R that can best implement this angle is selected and applied. In this case, the vehicle driver can easily check the instrument panel information provided from the front first surface 13 and the AV information provided from the right second surface 14 at the optimum viewing angle.

 Referring to FIG. 8, the plastic panel 10 will be attached and installed in a manner that is also bonded to the frame P formed on the side of the vehicle dashboard. Naturally, the installation angle θ3 is formed around the round R1. Thus, the section 12 is bent and bonded to the section 12 corresponding to the round R when or before the display panel 10 is installed, and then the first side 13 and the second side 14 ) Will be close to the edge of the frame 30 corresponding to the installation angle (θ3) while forming an internal angle (θ2) of each other.

As described above, according to the present invention, the plurality of screens 13 and 14 are not limited to a predetermined angle, and can be arbitrarily flexibly responded to the installation angle θ3 or the shape of the field object as the arbitrary angle settings and the conversion thereof are possible. On the other hand, when the prosthesis tool 17 is applied to the flexible section 12, the frame P is installed by preventing the plastic panel 10, in particular, the section 12 from becoming too flexible. It can improve the stability and workability.
