Problems solved by technology

[0004] The weighing scale of US 6,583,369 B2 has the disadvantage that the energy consumption of the display is very high, since sufficient light is required to see the display through the dark transparent plastic
Also it's difficult to make a bright cover that hides the display in its inactive state while not hiding it in its active state

Embodiment Construction

[0034] Figure 1 schematically illustrates a device in the form of a smart card 1 according to the invention. The smart card 1 has a front face 2 displaying smart card information, such as the issuer, expiration date, etc. The front side 2 surrounds the display surface 3 . In the situation shown in FIG. 1 , the display surface 3 is active and displays the amount available for the account number associated with this smart card 1 . The smart card 1 has an open button 4 and a close button 5 for the user to decide when to display the available amount on the display surface 3 .

[0035] Figure 2 shows the smart card 1 after the display surface has been closed. As shown in FIG. 2 , the front face 2 and the display face 3 merge into each other, so that it is impossible to see where the front face 2 ends and the display face 3 begins. This achieves the desired visual appearance, where credit information is displayed on the display surface 3 when required, but which cannot be disting...

Abstract

A device, such as a smart-card (301), has a front surface (2) and a display area (312). The display area (312) has an activated state and an inactivated state and is incorporated in the device (301) and has a display surface (3), which is surrounded by said front surface (2). The display area (312) has a light reflecting part (325) which, in the inactivated state of the display area (312), reflects incoming light. The light (RL) reflected by the reflecting part (325) provides the display surface (3) with a desired visual appearance in relation to the visual appearance of the front surface (2)surrounding the display surface (3).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a device having a front and a display having an active state and an inactive state, incorporated in the device and having a display surface. Background technique [0002] In the course of continuous development of information technology, different kinds of displays are being incorporated into more and more kinds of devices that previously did not have displays. Examples of such devices include smart cards, home appliances, clothing, car dashboards, and the like. Such a display may be, for example, a liquid crystal display or another display. It is often desirable that such displays be visible when activated and more or less invisible when not activated, or alternatively, the display may also have a decorative appearance when not activated. Since the devices in which displays are often installed have limited power capabilities, such displays preferably have low power consumption in both the inactive and active states. [0003...
