LG's Innovative Method for Manufacturing Display Device Covers Revealed

LG Electronics has recently unveiled a breakthrough patent, US20230234338A1, on a new method for manufacturing a cover for a display device. The patent describes a method that involves printing a layer, cutting it, removing a film, coating the surface, and then removing another film.

This innovative method is part of a rollable type flexible display device, which means that the flexible display may be rolled up, reducing the size or area of the display. Conversely, when the display is unrolled, the size or area of the display may be increased.

In addition to this rollable type device, LG Electronics has also introduced a device in which, as the two bodies perform sliding movement relative to each other, the flexible display having a certain area is displayed. This means that the device can be adjusted to suit the user's needs.

The patented method for manufacturing a cover for a display device is beneficial for many reasons. Firstly, it reduces the number of steps and materials needed to make the cover. This means that the cost of manufacturing the cover is reduced. In addition, it also reduces the time required to make the cover.

Moreover, the patented method is highly reliable, ensuring that the cover is of a high quality and durable. This is because it involves printing a layer, cutting it, and removing a film before coating the surface. This creates a solid and protective layer, making the cover more resilient to wear and tear.

The patented method is also beneficial for the environment. It uses less materials and resources, and the amount of energy used is also reduced. This makes it more sustainable and eco-friendly.

As for the applications of this innovative method, LG Electronics has stated that it may be used in a variety of products, including televisions, smartwatches, and smartphones. It may also be applicable to other devices that require a cover, such as those used in medical and industrial applications.

Although the patent has been filed, there is no guarantee that the patented method for manufacturing a cover for a display device will be adopted by LG Electronics in the near future. However, the fact that the company has filed a patent in this area shows that they are developing new technologies that could revolutionize the display device industry.

In conclusion, LG Electronics has recently unveiled a patent on a new and innovative method for manufacturing a cover for a display device. The method involves printing a layer, cutting it, removing a film, coating the surface, and then removing another film. This method is beneficial for its cost-efficiencies, reliability, and eco-friendliness. While the patent has been filed, it is yet to be seen whether the patented method will be adopted by LG Electronics in the near future.
