Description

Flat panel display and display method thereof

The invention relates to a flat panel display and a display method thereof.

Background technique

The display has a very important role in the television, computer, advertising and other industries. In order to meet various needs, people are constantly exploring high-performance displays. A method of controlling pixel or pattern flipping with a stepper motor is disclosed in Chinese Patent Application Publication No. 2110906, "A Monitor with a Stepper Motor," which forms different images. In the technical solution disclosed in this patent, there are fewer faces that can be reversed, and it cannot form an arbitrary image with rich colors.

Another Chinese patent application publication number is 1292885, and the patent application entitled "Micro-Mechanical Flat Panel Display" discloses a flat panel display, which is composed of multiple micro-sheets made on the same flat panel. However, since a sheet can only display one color or pattern, it cannot display any image with rich colors.

Summary of the Invention

An object of the present invention is to provide a flat panel display that can continuously display any image with rich colors.

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions: A flat panel display includes a display surface composed of a plurality of pixels connected by a mesh structure, which is characterized in that: the pixels are composed of a stepper motor and a color carrier. The color carrier is changed by the stepping motor drive.

The color carrier is coated with a color layer, and the color carrier may be a fibrous material or leather with fibers; the fibrous material is one of cotton, linen, wool, silk, or woolen cloth.

A second object of the present invention is to provide a display method of the flat panel display. To achieve this objective, the technical solution provided by the present invention is: a display method of a flat panel display, including the following steps:

1) Set the stepping motor and the color carrier as a whole to form each pixel of the image;

2) color the color carrier of step 1); the top of each color carrier is painted black; the remaining part is painted in three primary colors;

3) Fix several color carriers formed in step 2) in the meshes of a mesh structure, and arrange them in a horizontal and vertical arrangement on a plane to form a display plane. Each color carrier and display The mouth is left on the plane;

4) When the power is turned on, the mover of the stepping motor drives the structure of all the color carriers to change to form a display plane displaying different colors.

The color carrier in step 2) is a fibrous material or leather with fibers; the fibrous material may be selected from cotton, linen, wool, silk, or woolen cloth. '

The color carrier of step 3) is selected from a fibrous material. The fibrous material is directly connected to the mover, and the stepper motor drives the mover to drive one end of the fibrous material to extend or contract at the opening of the display plane. The color is changed to form a rich image with various colors.

The fibrous material may also be fixed on the display plane, with the fibers facing upward, at least one opening in the fibrous material, and the shape of the small opening may be a cross; the mover is arranged perpendicular to the display plane; An extension rod is provided between the display plane and the mover. The mover pushes the fibrous material up and over through the extension rod, exposing the pixel color other than the fiber section.

The working principle of the invention is: fixing the color-coated carrier on the display surface, the top of the color carrier is painted black, and the moving direction of the linear stepper motor mover is perpendicular to the display surface; when the color carrier is in a stationary state, The pixels are black; when the carrier is placed in the open position, the stepper motor contacts and changes with the color carrier. The color carrier makes a variety of different opening, closing, expanding, and shrinking methods. It is composed of "color" pixels. The color flat-panel display replaces the pixel colors transformed in the form of flips or pages. '

The invention has the advantages that each pixel can be provided with a variety of widely different changes, and the three primary colors can be used to display various images with rich colors. The pixels are connected with a soft material, and a flexible flat panel display can also be manufactured.

The structure and display method of the pixels in the display are described in detail below with reference to the drawings.

The best way to implement the invention

Example one

As shown in FIG. 1, the flat panel display of the present invention includes a stepper motor 1, a stepper motor mover 2, and a display. The surface 3 and the carrier 4A are formed with the opening 5 a on the display surface 3. Stepping: The motor 1 is perpendicular to the moving direction of the mover 2 to form the display surface 3 of the display. The display surface 3 is ^: ^: — the opening 5 and the mover 2 are connected with a carrier, and the carrier is made of a fibrous material. The end of the material is black, and the remaining parts are painted in three primary colors; the stepper motor mover 2 pushes the carrier 4A through the opening 5 to extend, open or flip back into the opening 5 and the three primary colors on the fibrous material With the extent of its expansion and contraction, the color on the display surface 3 changes in different sizes; several pixels are fixed in a mesh of a mesh structure made of plastic or metal material, on a plane The display surface 3 of the display is connected vertically and horizontally to form a display. By the pusher of the stepper motor mover 2, each colored pixel displays a variety of colorful patterns on the display surface 3 with its own change.

Example two

As shown in FIG. 2, FIG. 3, and FIG. 4, the flat panel display in this embodiment is different from the first embodiment in that the carrier 4B uses leather with fiber, and the carrier 4B is fixed on the display surface 3; 2 is provided with an extension rod 6, the movement direction of the stepper motor mover 2 is perpendicular to the display surface 3; the extension rod 6 is connected to the carrier 4B, and the top of the fiber of the carrier 4B is painted black, and the fiber section is painted with three primary colors; The extension rod 6 drives the carrier 4B to change up and down under the linear drive of the stepper motor mover 2, so that the fiber changes from stationary to upper or lower, so as to realize the image display function of the display surface 3; open one on the carrier 4B With a small cross, the extension rod 6 is pushed up by the stepper motor mover 2 to turn the carrier 4B up, exposing the color of the cross section other than the fiber tip, so as to realize more combinations of pixel colors and display various colorful patterns.

Industrial applications

The invention adopts a stepper motor and a color carrier to form pixels, and a plurality of pixels to form a display plane. The stepper motor is used to drive the color carrier to open, close, expand, and contract in different degrees, instead of turning or turning pages. Method to change the color of pixels, each pixel can be set for multiple changes, using the three primary colors to display a variety of colorful images; the pixels are connected by a soft material, and a flexible flat panel display can be manufactured to display The surface has a three-dimensional effect, thereby improving the visual effect, and can be widely used in television, computer, advertising and other industries. The display manufacturing process of the invention is simple, convenient to operate, and can be produced on an industrial scale.
