Abstract

A flexible liquid crystal display panel includes spacers and cross members which are prevented from moving and from exfoliating, respectively, even when a force is applied thereto. In this panel, upper and lower substrates have flexibility, and spacers coated with an adhesive are fixed to orientation films formed on the substrates, by means of the adhesive. Thus, even when a force is applied from the outside, the spacers are prevented from moving, and therefore the distance between the substrates can be kept constant and the display characteristics of the liquid crystal can be made uniform. Further, a sealing member interposed between the substrates has holes through which cross members are fitted. This means that the cross members are reinforced by the sealing member, and hence they can be prevented from exfoliating from the substrates, keeping good electrical connection.
