US Patent 7280178 Liquid crystal display device and method of manufacturing the same

A liquid crystal display device includes a sealing member provided region of a line-extracting portion 508 which is divided into three or more regions (three regions of a region A 151, a region B 152, and a region C 153) to suppress the unevenness attributable to the difference in the density of the outgoing lines 108 reliably. Moreover, the variation in the, gap is suppressed to an indiscernible level in each of the regions. In addition, dummy patterns are formed on a different layer from the layer where the outgoing lines 108 are formed under a condition not affecting the curing of the sealing member. Moreover, dummy patterns are formed similarly on an edge opposed to the line-extracting portion 508 when appropriate.
