Embodiment Construction

[0027] Various examples will now be described more fully hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings, which illustrate example embodiments. Wherever possible, the same reference numbers will be used throughout the drawings to refer to the same or like parts. However, aspects may be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein.

[0028]The aesthetics of display devices (such as televisions, desktop computers, laptops, notebook and tablet computers, cell phones) are affected by the size and appearance of the bezel, which typically exists around the perimeter of such display devices, and in particular forms the View images around the perimeter of the display panel portion. The bezel of a display device is typically used to house the electronic components used to drive the pixels of the display panel and, in some cases, to provide backlighting for the display device if the display panel is edge-lit. For e...

Abstract

A protective support bracket (edge ​​bracket) (40, 100) for a quenched cover (18) in a display device (10, 110) is disclosed. Such covers are typically made of chemically strengthened glass, which may have imperfections due to cutting or molding processes. Bending of the cover plate (18) can then lead to cracking of these imperfections. In order to prevent this phenomenon, the cover plate (18) is housed (or mounted) on a gasket-like protective support (40, 100), which mechanically protects the changed edge and makes especially Any curvature at its edges is minimal. The support can be flat ((100) in Figure 10-12) or have a rim (46) that abuts the edge of the cover glass ((40) in Figure 3A-7). Additionally, the support may have a "D" shaped cross-section which may enclose a hollow channel (62) to provide enhanced impact resistance (Figs. 6, 7).

Description

[0001] This application claims priority to US Patent Application Serial No. 13 / 529141, filed June 21, 2012. technical field [0002] The present disclosure relates to display devices including display covers, and in particular to glass display covers, wherein edge portions of the glass display covers are protected by brackets that minimize cracks at the edges of the display cover. Background technique [0003] As used herein, the term display device is intended to include all electronic devices capable of displaying visual content, including but not limited to: computers, including but not limited to laptops, notebooks, tablets, and desktop computing devices; Mobile phones, cameras (both mobile and stationary) and; television (TV). Each of the aforementioned devices includes a number of component parts: including a physical chassis or housing (where the various components may be placed), circuit boards, power supplies, circuit components (such as integrated electronic compon...
