摘要： Electronic flat panel displays (FPDs) including liquid crystal displays (LCDs) may be resized to meet custom size requirements for applications in aerospace and elsewhere. During the resizing process, pixel line defects may occur in the image due to electrical short circuits at the resized cut edge. Methods for repairing such short circuits are described, including use of mechanical, electrical, chemical, thermal, and/or other methods, and any combination thereof, to open the short circuits. The methods may be applied to the sealed cut edge to ruggedize the seal, even if image defects are not exhibited initially. The repaired short circuits may be stress tested to ensure the defects will not recur during the life of the display, and the repaired areas may be resealed.

摘要： Apparatus and methods are provided for resizing an electronic display that includes front and back plates, a perimeter seal spacing apart the plates and defining an enclosed cell area between the plates that includes an original display image area, image-generating medium sealed in the enclosed cell area, and electrical circuits on inner surfaces of the plates extending throughout the original display image area. For example, a cut line may be identified that intersects across the original display image area of the display. A laser may be directed adjacent the cut line to heat and/or separate leads of the electrical circuits adjacent the cut line. The display may be cut adjacent the cut line, e.g., before or after separating leads along the cut line, resulting in a target display portion with an exposed edge, and an excess display portion, and then the exposed edge may be sealed.

摘要： Methods are provided for sealing edges of resized electronic displays to minimize the size of the seal area as viewed from the front of the display. A target portion of a display is separated from an excess portion, creating an exposing edge. The exposed edge is sealed using a ribbon-like material with adhesive attached across the ends of the plates of the target portion to maintain and seal the gap between the two substrates. It may be desirable to allow two similarly prepared displays to have the resealed edge abutted against each other a minimal mullion between them. The size of the mullion is further minimized by providing pixels to the edge of the substrate being sealed, e.g., such that the active area of the display extends all the way to the edge(s) being abutted together.
摘要翻译：提供了用于密封调整尺寸的电子显示器的边缘的方法，以使从显示器的前面观察的密封区域的尺寸最小化。显示器的目标部分与多余部分分离，产生曝光边缘。暴露的边缘使用带状材料密封，粘合剂附着在目标部分的板的端部上，以保持和密封两个基板之间的间隙。可能期望允许两个类似的制备的显示器使得再密封的边缘彼此抵靠在它们之间的最小竖框。通过向被密封的衬底的边缘提供像素来进一步减小竖框的尺寸，例如使得显示器的有效区域一直延伸到邻接的边缘。

摘要： Apparatus and methods are provided for mounting a flat panel display to an outer surface of a control panel over a panel opening therein, e.g., for retrofitting an existing display. A display is secured to a frame, and the frame is mounted to the control panel such that the display is disposed over the panel opening. Wires from the display are directed through the control panel, and coupled to circuitry behind the control panel. For example, a box with circuitry to operate the display may be mounted behind the control panel, e.g., generally opposite the display. The display may be a resized liquid crystal display, e.g., including one or more diagonal corners. The resulting display may be larger than the existing display and/or may maximize the size of an active area of a display given a fixed area available on a control panel.

摘要： Electronic displays are physically reshaped and/or resized to meet custom specifications for special applications such as avionics, where Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS) Liquid Crystal Displays (LCDs) are not typically used. Customization includes cutting the physical display to specified dimensions to fit into a target opening, and resealing the display to preserve proper cell spacing and assure basic functionality. The target opening is typically a control panel or dashboard opening, such as in the cockpit of an airplane. The sealing process may include improving the original seal, and/or providing additional seals. Additional seals may protect sensitive areas against chemical corrosives or contamination, humidity, electrostatic damage, etc., and/or prevent light from passing around the edge of the display image area. Electric continuity may need to be reestablished for electric leads affected during the customization process, and electronic drivers may need to be reattached to the display. Additional modifications and/or enhancements may be made to the display during reshaping and/or resizing. For example, TABs or COGs may be relocated, added, removed, replaced, and/or reoriented; electric circuits may be replaced and/or supplemented with circuits having different functionality; the display medium may be altered and/or replaced; polarizers, filters, and/or films may be added, removed, and/or replaced. The customized display may then be ruggedized by attaching a suitable bezel (face plate) and frame (support hardware) thereto, and the completed, customized display unit may then be installed in the target location and integrated with surrounding hardware and electronics.

摘要： An apparatus for mounting a flat panel display includes a bracket including fastener elements for mounting the bracket to a control panel having a panel opening therein, and a bezel for securing the display to the bracket such that the display covers the opening and the fasteners used to mount the bracket to the control panel. During use, the bracket is mounted to the control panel over the opening, and the display is secured to the bracket such that the display covers the opening and fasteners. The apparatus may be used for retrofitting an existing display with a flat panel display, with the existing display being removed before the bracket is mounted to the control panel.
