[0032] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present application.
[0033] The present application provides a display device, which may be a liquid crystal display device or an organic light emitting diode display device. Specifically, the display device is an organic light emitting diode display device.
[0034] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, Figure 1 is a plan view of a display device according to an embodiment of the present application, Figure 2 for Figure 1 A partial enlarged schematic diagram of the display device shown, Figure 3 for Figure 2 The display device 100 has a light-transmitting display area 100a, a main display area 100c and a transitional display area 100b. The display device 100 includes a plurality of first display pixels, a plurality of first pixel driving circuits (not shown), a plurality of second display pixels, a plurality of pixel driving circuit islands 101 and a plurality of transparent wires 102.
[0035] The transition display area 100b is located at the periphery of the display light-transmitting area 100a, and the transition display area 100b is located between the main display area 100c and the display light-transmitting area 100a. Both the main display area 100c and the transition display area 100b are used for display. While the display light-transmitting area 100a is used for display, it also has a high light transmittance property. The light transmittance of the display light-transmitting area 100a is greater than the light transmittance of the main display area 100c and the transition display area 100b. The area of the main display area 100c is greater than the area of the transition display area 100b and the area of the display light-transmitting area 100a. The shape of the display light-transmitting area 100a is circular, and the shape of the transition display area 100b is annular. The display light-transmitting area 100a is symmetrical about the symmetry axis AA and the symmetry axis BB, and the symmetry axis AA and the symmetry axis BB are perpendicular to each other.
[0036] A plurality of first display pixels are uniformly arranged in the main display area 100c, and each first display pixel includes a first red sub-pixel 100c1, a first green sub-pixel 100c3, and a first blue sub-pixel 100c2. The first red sub-pixel 100c1, the first green sub-pixel 100c3, and the first blue sub-pixel 100c2 are distributed in the main display area 100c in a Pentile design. The first green sub-pixel 100c3 is elliptical in shape, and the first red sub-pixel 100c1 and the first blue sub-pixel 100c2 are octagonal in shape.
[0037] A plurality of first pixel driving circuits are also arranged in the main display area 100c. One first pixel driving circuit corresponds to driving one sub-pixel (one of the first red sub-pixel 100c1, the first green sub-pixel 100c3 and the first blue sub-pixel 100c2) of the main display area 100c to emit light. Each first pixel driving circuit includes a plurality of metal film layers, and the plurality of first pixel driving circuits are arranged in an array in the main display area 100c, resulting in a low light transmittance of the main display area 100c. The first red sub-pixel 100c1, the first green sub-pixel 100c3 and the first blue sub-pixel 100c2 all include light-emitting devices, which are organic light-emitting diodes.
[0038] A plurality of second display pixels are uniformly arranged in the display light transmission area 100a and the transition display area 100b. Each second display pixel includes a second red sub-pixel 100a1, a second green sub-pixel 100a3 and a second blue sub-pixel 100a2. The second red sub-pixel 100a1, the second green sub-pixel 100a3 and the second blue sub-pixel 100a2 are all distributed in a Pentile design in the display light transmission area 100a and the transition display area 100b. The second red sub-pixel 100a1, the second green sub-pixel 100a3 and the second blue sub-pixel 100a2 are all circular in shape. The second red sub-pixel 100a1, the second green sub-pixel 100a3 and the second blue sub-pixel 100a2 all include a light-emitting device, which is an organic light-emitting diode, and each organic light-emitting diode includes an anode, a cathode and an organic light-emitting layer arranged between the anode and the cathode.
[0039] The size of the first red sub-pixel 100c1 is larger than the size of the second red sub-pixel 100a1, the size of the first green sub-pixel 100c3 is larger than the size of the second green sub-pixel 100a3, and the size of the first blue sub-pixel 100c2 is larger than the size of the second blue sub-pixel 100a2, so as to ensure that the display light-transmitting area 100a has a high light transmittance. From the main display area 100c to the transition display area 100b, the size of the sub-pixel becomes smaller.
[0040] Since the sizes of a second red sub-pixel 100a1 and a first red sub-pixel 100c1 are different, the driving powers of the corresponding driving circuits are also different. Similarly, the driving powers of the driving circuits of the first green sub-pixel 100c3 and the second green sub-pixel 100a3 are also different, and the driving powers of the driving circuits of the first blue sub-pixel 100c2 and the second blue sub-pixel 100a2 are also different. Therefore, the first pixel driving circuit can only be used to drive the first red sub-pixel 100c1, the first green sub-pixel 100c3 and the first blue sub-pixel 100c2 in the main display area 100c, but cannot be used to drive the second red sub-pixel 100a1, the second green sub-pixel 100a3 and the second blue sub-pixel 100a2 in the transition display area 100b and the display light-transmitting area 100a.
[0041] Please combine Figure 2 and Figure 3 , a plurality of pixel driving circuit islands 101 are arranged in the transition display area 100b, each pixel driving circuit island 101 includes a plurality of second pixel driving circuits 1011 arranged in an array, each pixel driving circuit island 101 includes m rows and n columns of second pixel driving circuits 1011, m is greater than or equal to 2, n is greater than or equal to 2, that is, each pixel driving circuit island 101 is in a strip shape. The second pixel driving circuits 1011 of the plurality of pixel driving circuit islands 101 are used to drive the plurality of second display pixels to emit light, that is, the second pixel driving circuits 1011 of the plurality of pixel driving circuit islands 101 are used to drive the second display pixels of the transition display area 100b to emit light, and are also used to drive the second display pixels of the display light-transmitting area 100a to emit light, so as to avoid setting a pixel driving circuit in the display light-transmitting area 100a, and avoid the metal film layer of the pixel driving circuit affecting the light transmittance of the display light-transmitting area 100a, thereby further improving the light transmittance of the display light-transmitting area 100a. A plurality of second pixel driving circuits 1011 form a plurality of pixel driving circuit islands 101, which is beneficial to reducing the space required for the plurality of second pixel driving circuits 1011, and is beneficial to realizing that the second pixel driving circuit 1011 drives the second display pixel corresponding to the display light-transmitting area 100a, however, it causes the lines electrically connected to the second pixel driving circuit 1011 to be concentrated in the area where the pixel driving circuit island 101 is arranged. The pixel driving circuit island 101 refers to a plurality of second pixel driving circuits 1011 that are clustered and arranged in an island shape, wherein the spacing between two adjacent pixel driving circuit islands 101 is greater than the spacing between two adjacent second pixel driving circuits 1011 in the same pixel driving circuit island 101.
[0042] Different from the main display area 100c, a second pixel driving circuit 1011 is used to drive at least two of the plurality of second red sub-pixels 100a1, the plurality of second green sub-pixels 100a3, and the plurality of second blue sub-pixels 100a2, so as to reduce the number of second pixel driving circuits 1011 and the space occupied by the pixel driving circuit island 101, so that the size of the display light-transmitting area 100a can be increased or the transition display area 100b has more space without the pixel driving circuit island 101. The second pixel driving circuit 1011 can be used to drive the sub-pixels emitting the same color light and / or the sub-pixels emitting different color light in the plurality of second red sub-pixels 100a1, the plurality of second green sub-pixels 100a3, and the plurality of second blue sub-pixels 100a2. In the display light-transmitting area 100a, the sub-pixels driven by the same second pixel driving circuit 1011 are electrically connected through transparent wires.
[0043] Specifically, the two second red sub-pixels 100a1 are driven by the same second pixel driving circuit 1011 , the two second blue sub-pixels 100a2 are driven by the same second pixel driving circuit 1011 , and the four second green sub-pixels 100a3 are driven by the same second pixel driving circuit 1011 .
[0044] like Figure 2 As shown, a plurality of pixel driving circuit islands 101 are arranged around the display light-transmitting area 100a, and the number of second pixel driving circuits 1011 in at least two pixel driving circuit islands 101 is different, so that the number of sub-pixels driven by the at least two pixel driving circuit islands 101 is different, which is adapted to the situation that when the display light-transmitting area 100a is circular and part of the second pixel driving circuit 1011 of each pixel driving circuit island 101 is used to drive the corresponding sub-pixels in the display light-transmitting area 100a, the number of sub-pixels corresponding to each pixel driving circuit island 101 in the display light-transmitting area 100a changes.
[0045] The plurality of pixel driving circuit islands 101 include a first group of pixel driving circuit islands 1012 (pixel driving circuit islands 101 above the symmetry axis BB) and a second group of pixel driving circuit islands 1013 (pixel driving circuit islands 101 below the symmetry axis BB). The pixel driving circuit islands 101 in the first group of pixel driving circuit islands 1012 and the pixel driving circuit islands 101 in the second group of pixel driving circuit islands 1013 are symmetrically arranged about the symmetry axis BB, the pixel driving circuit islands 101 in the first group of driving circuit islands 1012 are symmetrically arranged about the symmetry axis AA, and the pixel driving circuit islands 101 in the second group of pixel driving circuit islands 1012 are symmetrically arranged about the symmetry axis AA.
[0046] The number of the second pixel driving circuits 1011 in some pixel driving circuit islands 101 in the first group of pixel driving circuit islands 1012 decreases from close to the symmetry axis AA to far away from the symmetry axis AA, and correspondingly, the number of the second pixel driving circuits 1011 in some pixel driving circuit islands 101 in the second group of pixel driving circuit islands 1013 decreases from close to the symmetry axis AA to far away from the symmetry axis AA. One pixel driving circuit island 101 in the first group of pixel driving circuit islands 1012 and one corresponding pixel driving circuit island 101 in the second group of pixel driving circuit islands 1013 drive the sub-pixels in the areas where the two are located and between the two in the light-transmitting area 100a, such as the sub-pixels in the area 100d. Wherein, each pixel driving circuit island 101 in the first group of pixel driving circuit islands 1012 and the second group of pixel driving circuit islands 1013 is used to drive the sub-pixels in the corresponding area of the pixel driving circuit island 101, and also drives the sub-pixels in the light-transmitting area 100a between the pixel driving circuit island 101 and the corresponding pixel driving circuit island in the second group of pixel driving circuit islands 1013.
[0047] like Figure 3 As shown, in order to improve the transmittance of the display light-transmitting area 100a, a plurality of second pixel driving circuits 1011 are electrically connected to the second red sub-pixel 100a1, the second blue sub-pixel 100a2 and the second green sub-pixel 100a3 of the display light-transmitting area 100a through a plurality of transparent wires 102. Since the plurality of second pixel driving circuits 1011 are concentratedly distributed in an island shape, the number of transparent wires 102 provided for the corresponding pixel driving circuit island 101 is relatively large, and some of the transparent wires 102 will overlap with the gate lead electrically connected to the gate of the driving transistor of the second pixel driving circuit 1011 in the pixel driving circuit island 101. The transparent wires 102 are densely distributed and have differences, resulting in differences in the overlapping areas of different gate leads and the transparent wires 102.

The fourth insulating layer 110 is an organic insulating layer, and the material for preparing the organic insulating layer is selected from polyimide.
[0065] The plurality of transparent wires 102 are located in the plurality of transparent conductive layers to increase the layout space of the transparent wires 102 and avoid short circuits between the transparent wires 102 due to the small layout space of the transparent wires 102. The transparent wires 102 are made of at least one of indium tin oxide or indium zinc oxide. An organic insulating layer is provided between the transparent wires 102 located in adjacent film layers.
[0066] The display device includes a shielding layer 151, which is disposed in the transition display area 100b, and is located between a plurality of gate leads 141 and at least one transparent conductive layer, and the shielding layer 151 is disposed corresponding to the gate leads 141. The shielding layer 151 shields the parasitic capacitance between the gate leads 141 and the transparent wires 102, thereby preventing the parasitic capacitance from causing instability in the gate potential of the driving transistor M1, and preventing the parasitic capacitance from causing a large difference in the influence of the parasitic capacitance on the gate potential of the driving transistor M1 due to the difference in the parasitic capacitance, thereby improving the working stability of the driving transistor M1, and preventing the display non-uniformity problem from occurring in the display light-transmitting area 100a of the display device.
[0067] In the thickness direction of the display device 100, the orthographic projections of the multiple gate leads 141 on the substrate 111 of the display device 100 are located inside the orthographic projections of the shielding layer 151 on the substrate 111 of the display device 100, so that the area of the shielding layer 151 corresponding to the gate lead 141 is larger than the area of the gate lead 141, so that the shielding layer 151 completely shields the corresponding gate lead 141, and completely avoids the generation of parasitic capacitance between the multiple gate leads 141 and the multiple transparent wires 102.
[0068] The display device 100 also includes a metal grid 152 for transmitting a DC voltage signal, and the shielding layer 151 is arranged in the same layer as the metal grid 152.

The metal grid 152 is in a grid shape. The preparation material of the metal grid 152 is selected from at least one of molybdenum, aluminum, titanium and copper.
[0069] The metal grid 152 disposed in the transition display area 100b and located above the plurality of second pixel driving circuits 1011 extends out of the shielding layer 151 so that the shielding layer 151 transmits a fixed voltage signal, and a parasitic capacitance is formed between the shielding layer 151 and the gate lead 141. However, the potential of the shielding layer 151 is stable, and the potential stability of the gate lead 141 can also be ensured, thereby avoiding the potential instability of the gate lead 141 caused by the unstable potential of the transparent wire 102, thereby improving the stability of the gate potential of the driving transistor M1, improving the working stability of the driving transistor M1, and thereby improving the brightness uniformity of the sub-pixels driven by the driving transistor M1.
[0070] The DC voltage signal is selected from one of the initialization signal and the DC power signal. Since the initialization signal is transmitted by the initialization signal line VI, the initialization signal line VI can be electrically connected to the metal grid 152 so that the metal grid 152 transmits the DC voltage signal.

[0073] Since the driving power of the first pixel driving circuit of the main display area 100c is different from that of the second pixel driving circuit 1011 in the pixel driving circuit island 101, the width of the DC power signal line VDD of the main display area 100c is larger than that of the DC power signal line VDD of the transition display area 100b. When the width of the DC power signal line VDD of the transition display area 100b is smaller, the fourth insulating layer 110 is provided with a via 110a for a portion of the main display area 100c, and the DC power signal line VDD of the main display area 100c is electrically connected to the metal grid 152 of the main display area 100c through the via 110a of the main display area 100c, and since the metal grid 152 of the main display area 100c is connected to the metal grid 152 of the transition display area 100b, the DC power signal line VDD of the transition display area 100b is electrically connected to the metal grid 152 of the transition display area 100b. When the width of the DC power signal line VDD in the transition display area 100b is large, the DC power signal line VDD in the transition display area 100b and the metal grid 152 in the transition display area 100b may also be electrically connected through the via hole provided in the fourth insulating layer 110 corresponding to the transition display area 100b.
