Abstract

The present invention provides a laminated liquid crystal display device having a configuration in which substrates for both panels can be electrically connected easily. The display device, which is implemented by multiple-layered liquid crystal cell panels configured by laminating a liquid crystal cell panel having a rigid panel substrate and a liquid crystal cell panel having a flexible panel substrate, makes use of the flexibility of the flexible panel substrate for making electrical connection between the flexible panel substrate and the rigid panel substrate. A part of the flexible panel substrate is protruded and, on this protrusion, electrode wire lines are provided for making electrical connection between the panel substrates. Bending the flexible panel substrate allows the electrode wire lines, formed on the protrusion, to be brought into contact with the rigid panel substrate.
