Abstract
The electro-optical display device includes at least one electro-optical assembly, in particular an electro-optical cell (4), electrically connected to a supply unit (12) by means of elongated flexible supports (6, 8). Metallized tracks are arranged on the flexible supports which support integrated circuits (16). The flexible supports are assembled to the electro-optical cell and have loose intermediate portions formed by folds (42) which are free and thus allow positioning of each segment (44) situated between two consecutive folds with respect to the electro-optical cell which is independent of the positioning of the other segments.
