Abstract

A display device may include a substrate, a plurality of gate lines and a plurality of data lines, gate wirings and data wirings. The substrate may comprise a display area in which a plurality of pixels for displaying an image are arranged and a non-display area around the display area. The plurality of gate lines and the plurality of data lines in the display area on the substrate, the plurality of gate lines extending in one direction and the plurality of data lines extending in a direction intersecting said one direction. The gate wirings and data wirings in the non-display area on the substrate. At least one of the gate wirings and the data wirings has a hole having an edge in the form of numbers.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A display device comprising:
a substrate comprising a display area in which a plurality of pixels for displaying an image are arranged and a non-display area abutting the display area;
a plurality of gate lines and a plurality of data lines in the display area on the substrate, the plurality of gate lines extending in one direction and the plurality of data lines extending in a direction intersecting said one direction; and
gate wirings and data wirings in the non-display area on the substrate,
wherein at least one of the gate wirings and the data wirings has a hole having an edge in the form representing multiple numbers.

2. The display device of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the gate wirings and the data wirings has a hole having an edge in the form representing symbols, letters and patterns.

3. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the gate wiring is formed in a substantially same process as a process in which the gate line is formed.

4. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the data wiring is formed in a substantially same process as a process in which the data line is formed.

5. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the numbers represent an identification line number of the gate line and the data line.

6. The display device of claim 2 , wherein the symbol, the letter and the pattern represent an identification line number of the gate line and the data line.

7. The display device of claim 2 , wherein the symbol, the letter and the pattern represent an ascending direction or a descending direction of an identification line number of the gates line and the data lines.

8. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the gate wiring is a part of one of a driving signal wiring, a power application wiring, an antistatic wiring, an inspection wiring and a repair wiring.

9. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the data wiring is a part of one of a driving signal wiring, a power application wiring, an antistatic wiring, an inspection wiring and a repair wiring.

10. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the gate wiring comprises a gate fan-out wiring connected to the gate line.

11. The display device of claim 10 , wherein the hole is positioned adjacent to the gate fan-out wiring.

12. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the data wiring comprises a data fan-out wiring connected to the data line.

13. The display device of claim 12 , wherein the hole is positioned adjacent to the data fan-out wiring.
