Abstract:
To facilitate evaluation of the amount of a deviation in a column direction between a front substrate and a rear substrate upon assembly of a plasma display panel, thereby improving alignment accuracy between the front substrate and the rear substrate and performances of the resultant plasma display panel, there is provided a plasma display panel comprising partition 15 and position alignment-use ribs 20. The partition 15 is formed of vertical walls 15a extending in a column direction and horizontal walls 15b extending in a row direction on a rear glass substrate 13 so as to partition a discharge space S between a front glass substrate 10 and the rear glass substrate 13 in the row and column directions in accordance with unit luminous regions. The position alignment-use rib 20 is formed on the rear glass substrate, and is positioned in cell Ca which is positioned at the outside of the display region of the plasma display panel within spaces partitioned by the partition 15.
Abstract:
A plasma display panel comprising plural kinds of phosphors, each of which emits a light having a different kind of color, separators which separate the plural kinds of phosphors and discharge cells having sustain electrode pairs which create discharges to create the light emissions from the phosphors. In the plasma display panel, a sustain discharge current through each sustain electrode pair in the discharge cells is set a different value according to a brightness of each light emitted from the plural kinds of phosphors.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method of disassembling a plasma display panel (“PDP”) for reutilization. A first method uses a component, which is thermally not contractible at a softening temperature of bonding material used for hermetically bonding a front and back plates, and positioned between the plates. The above component maintains or widens a space provided between the two plates when the PDP is heated, thereby facilitating disassembly of the PDP. The invention also provides a groove on a surface of either or both plates for communicating the bonding material to an exterior of the PDP. Softened bonding material can be drawn out or absorbed through the groove. Heating and cooling of the PDP may be made through a laminated graphite sheet placed on a surface of the PDP for uniformalizing thermal distribution. A second method separates a PDP into two plates by immersing the PDP in etching solution capable of selectively dissolving only lead glass, and melting the bonding material. A groove is provided between the perimeter of an image display screen and a bonded portion in order to prevent etching solution from permeating into the screen area. The groove is formed on the substrates in parallel with a longitudinal direction of electrodes. The separated plates are refurbished by restoring a deteriorated or defective portion into the original condition for use in manufacturing a new PDP.

A gas discharge display device comprising a front side substrate having a plurality of first electrodes and a back side substrate having a plurality of second electrodes, wherein at least said first electrodes or second electrodes are formed by wet etching using a resist made of an inorganic material, is excellent in the ability to suppress the breakage of wiring in electrodes.
Abstract:
A plasma display panel in which common electrode lines, scan electrode lines, and address electrode lines are located between a front substrate and a rear substrate, the substrates facing each other and being spaced apart from each other. The common electrode lines and scan electrode lines are parallel, the address electrode lines are orthogonal to the scan electrode lines and define pixels at each intersection. Partition walls accurately defining a discharge space are parallel to the address electrode lines, and the address electrode lines are divided into at least two parts to be separately driven. The respective partition walls are divided where the address electrode lines are divided to produce passages for gas flow.
Abstract:
A front glass substrate and a back glass substrate are disposed, confronting each other to interpose a certain space therebetween. A discharge gas is enclosed within the space. The space is divided into a plural of display cells and a plural of priming discharge cells. Display data write and sustaining discharges for displaying an image are caused in display cells by priming effects from priming discharge cells. Display cell electrodes control discharges at display cells. A pair of priming discharge electrodes for causing discharges in priming discharge cells is provided independently of display cell electrodes, and is driven independently of display cells. The priming discharge cells are independently of display cells with respect to structure and driving control, and may discharge preliminarily by a sine wave driving method using a low drive frequency.
Abstract:
A plasma display device is comprised of a plasma display panel, a circuit board having a driving circuit for driving the plasma display panel, a main frame for supporting the circuit board, and a uniform heat-conducting plate to be fixed to the plasma display panel. In this structure, although the uniform heat-conducting plate is fixed to the plasma display panel by means of, for example, an adhesive, the main frame can be detached from the uniform heat-conducting plate when the plasma display panel is replaced. As a result, various complicated structures such as a radiating fin and a rib can be formed on the main frame because consideration of the possibility of discarding the main frame along with a PDP to be replaced is no longer necessary. By forming the uniform heat-conducting plate to be a simple structure so as to reduce its manufacturing cost, and by forming the main frame to have a complicated structure to improve its thermal nature and the mechanical strength, the present invention is able to realize a plasma display device having improved thermal characteristics and mechanical strength without largely increasing the manufacturing cost.
