Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of displays, and more particularly to a display device. Background Technology

[0002] Organic light-emitting diode (OLED) display devices have been widely used due to their advantages such as ultra-high contrast, wide color gamut, fast response, active light emission, and flexibility.

[0003] Currently, OLED display devices in display devices have traces such as gate signal lines, voltage signal lines, and drive signal lines on their sides. Furthermore, the sides of OLED display devices are often susceptible to damage from external impacts or scratches, especially foldable or bendable OLED displays which are frequently dropped and damaged. Therefore, a front frame structure is typically used to protect the OLED display device. However, this front frame structure, after being assembled with the OLED display device, occupies space at the edge of the display device, resulting in a reduced screen-to-body ratio and affecting the overall visual experience of the display device. Summary of the Invention

Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, and not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0041] This application provides a display device. The following provides a detailed description of each. It should be noted that the order of description of the following embodiments is not intended to limit the preferred order of the embodiments.

[0042] Please see Figures 1-3 This application provides a display device, including:

[0043] The display panel 100 includes a support layer 110 and a panel body 120 disposed on the support layer 110;

[0044] The encapsulation and protection component 200 includes a protective layer 210 and a frame 220. The frame 220 is disposed on the side of the support layer 110 away from the panel body 120. The protective layer 210 is disposed on the side of the panel body 120 away from the support layer 110, and the side of the protective layer 210 extends around the periphery of the display panel 100 to the side of the support layer 110 away from the panel body 120 and connects with the frame 220.

[0045] Understandably, currently, OLED display devices in display devices have traces such as gate signal lines, point voltage signal lines, and drive signal lines on their sides. Furthermore, the sides of OLED display devices are often susceptible to damage from external impacts or scratches, especially for bendable or foldable OLED display devices, which are frequently damaged by drops. Therefore, display devices typically employ a front frame structure to protect the OLED display device. However, this front frame structure, after being assembled with the OLED display device, occupies space at the edge of the display device, resulting in a reduced screen-to-body ratio and affecting the overall visual experience. In this embodiment, by providing a protective layer 210 on the side of the panel body 120 away from the support layer 110, and extending the side of the protective layer 210 around the periphery of the display panel 100 to the side of the support layer 110 away from the panel body 120 and connecting it to the frame 220, the surface and periphery of the panel body 120 are encapsulated and protected without reducing the screen-to-body ratio of the display device.

[0046] It should be noted that in the encapsulation protection assembly 200, the protective layer 210 is disposed on the side of the panel body 120 away from the support layer 110, that is, it is used to protect the surface of the light-emitting side of the panel body 120. The frame 220 is located on the side of the support layer 110 away from the panel body 120, and is used to connect with the connecting sub-part 2122 of the edge protection part 212. Without affecting the screen ratio of the display device, the supporting rigidity of the edge protection part 212 encapsulating the periphery of the panel body 120 is guaranteed. In this embodiment, the connecting sub-part 2122 of the edge protection part 212 can be fixedly connected to the frame 220 by thermoplastic molding or adhesive bonding. The protective layer 210 not only has good scratch and wear resistance, but also has high light transmittance. Specifically, the material of the protective layer 210 can be ultra-thin flexible glass (UTG) or transparent polyimide (colorless). The frame 220 is made of one of polyimide (CPI) and polyethylene terephthalate (PET), and the frame 220 can be formed by stamping. The material of the frame 220 may include at least one of titanium alloy, magnesium alloy and aluminum alloy.

[0047] It is worth noting that in this embodiment, the display panel 100 can be a non-flexible display panel 100 that cannot be bent. The encapsulation and protection component 200 can be used to encapsulate and protect the surface and sides of the non-flexible display panel 100. Of course, the encapsulation and protection component can also be used to encapsulate and protect a flexible display panel 100 that can be bent or folded. Regardless of whether the display panel 100 is a non-flexible display panel 100 or a flexible display panel 100, the encapsulation and protection component 200 is connected to the display panel 100 at least through the main protection part 211 to achieve the encapsulation and protection of the surface and periphery of the display panel 100 by the encapsulation and protection component 200.

[0048] In one embodiment, please refer to Figures 1-3 The protective layer 210 includes a main protective portion 211 disposed on the side of the panel body 120 away from the support layer 110, and an edge protective portion 212 disposed on the periphery of the main protective portion 211. The edge protective portion 212 includes a side protective sub-portion 2121 disposed around the periphery of the display panel 100, and a connecting sub-portion 2122 extending from the side protective sub-portion 2121 away from the main protective portion 211 to the side of the support layer 110 opposite to the panel body 120. The frame 220 is connected to the connecting sub-portion 2122 and is located on the side of the support layer 110 away from the panel body 120.

[0049] The encapsulation protection component 200 is connected to the display panel 100 at least through the main body protection part 211.

[0050] It is understood that the protective layer 210 is divided into a main protective portion 211 disposed on the side of the panel body 120 away from the support layer 110, and an edge protective portion 212 disposed on the periphery of the main protective portion 211. The edge protective portion 212 includes a side protective sub-portion 2121 disposed around the periphery of the display panel 100, and a connecting portion extending from the side protective sub-portion 2121 away from the main protective portion 211 to the side of the support layer 110 opposite to the panel body 120. The connecting part 2122 is connected to the frame 220 and is located on the side of the support layer 110 away from the panel body 120. This allows for the encapsulation and protection of the surface and periphery of the panel body 120 without affecting the screen ratio of the display device. At the same time, the connection between the frame 220 and the connecting part 2122 on the side of the support layer 110 away from the panel body 120 ensures the support rigidity of the edge protection part 212 encapsulating the periphery of the panel body 120.

[0051] In one embodiment, the frame 220 is disposed between the connecting sub-part 2122 and the support layer 110, and one side of the frame 220 is connected to the support layer 110, and the other side of the frame 220 is connected to the connecting sub-part 2122. It can be understood that when the display panel 100 is a non-flexible display panel 100, the support layer 110 can be directly fixedly connected to the support layer 110, and the support layer 110 and the protective layer 210 can be connected as one unit through the frame 220 to achieve all-round encapsulation and protection of the panel body 120.

[0052] In one embodiment, please refer to Figures 1-5 The display panel 100 includes a bent display portion 130 and two flat display portions 140 located on both sides of the bent display portion 130;

[0053] The frame 220 is spaced apart from the display panel 100, and the frame 220 includes a first partition opening 221 corresponding to the bent display portion 130;

[0054] The edge protection portion 212 is spaced apart from the display panel 100, and the edge protection portion 212 includes a second partition opening 2123 corresponding to the bent display portion 130.

[0055] It is understood that when the display panel 100 is a flexible display panel 100, the display panel 100 includes a bent display portion 130, and the display panel 100 can be bent at the position of the bent display portion 130. The frame 220 includes a first partition opening 221 corresponding to the bent display portion 130, and the edge protection portion 212 includes a second partition opening 2123 corresponding to the bent display portion 130. That is, the frame 220 and the edge protection portion 212 are separated at the position corresponding to the bent display portion 130, so as to prevent the frame 220 or the edge protection portion 212 from contacting the display panel 100 during the bending process. The components 100 interfere with each other. Furthermore, the frame 220 is spaced apart from the display panel 100, and the edge protection part 212 is spaced apart from the display panel 100. Obviously, the encapsulation protection component 200 is only connected to the display panel 100 through the main protection part 211. By setting the frame 220 and the display panel 100 in a gap fit, and the edge protection part 212 also in a gap fit with the display panel 100, it is avoided that the frame 220 or the edge protection part 212 is affected by the display panel 100 during the bending process, causing the main protection part 211 to peel off from the display panel 100.

[0056] It should be noted that the frame 220 includes a first partition opening 221 corresponding to the bent display portion 130, and the edge protection portion 212 includes a second partition opening 2123 corresponding to the bent display portion 130. Under the condition that the frame 220 and the edge protection portion 212 do not affect the bending of the display panel 100, the opening size of the first partition opening 221 and the second partition opening 2123 is not specifically limited.

[0057] Continuing from the above, in this embodiment, please refer to... Figures 1-3 The panel body 120 may include a flexible substrate 121, a display function layer 122, a polarizer 123, and an ultra-thin flexible glass cover 124, etc., stacked on the support layer 110. The support layer 110 is provided with a stress-reducing structure 111 at the position corresponding to the bent display part 130. The stress-reducing structure 111 includes multiple through holes or slots opened in the support layer 110, so as to facilitate the stress release of the support layer 110 during the bending of the display panel 100. The encapsulation protection component 200 can be connected to the ultra-thin flexible glass cover 124 through the main body protection part 211 to realize the assembly and connection of the encapsulation protection component 200 and the display panel 100.

[0058] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 4 The edge protection portion 212 includes two first protection sections 2124 located on opposite sides of the display panel 100, two second protection sections 2125 located at opposite ends of the display panel 100, and a plurality of corner protection sections 2126 located at each corner of the display panel 100.

[0059] A corner protection section 2126 is provided between the first protection section 2124 and the second protection section 2125, and the corner protection section 2126 is spaced apart from the first protection section 2124 and the second protection section 2125.

[0060] The first protective segment 2124 extends along the first direction 10, and the bent display part 130 includes a bent shaft extending along the second direction 20. The second direction 20 is set to form a preset angle with the first direction 10. The second partition opening 2123 includes two sub-openings 21231 corresponding to the bent display part 130, and one of the sub-openings 21231 is provided on the first protective segment 2124.

[0061] It is understood that different functional film layers, such as the support layer 110, flexible substrate 121, display functional layer 122, and polarizer 123, will slip and deform during the bending of the display panel 100, resulting in a certain misalignment between the different film layers. This is addressed by configuring the edge protection portion 212 to include two first protection sections 2124 located on opposite sides of the display panel 100, two second protection sections 2125 located at opposite ends of the display panel 100, and multiple corner protection sections 2126 located at each corner of the display panel 100. Furthermore, the corner protection sections 2126 are combined with the first protection sections 2124 and... The second protective segments 2125 are all spaced apart, providing sufficient space for the sliding deformation of each functional film layer during the bending of the display panel 100, thereby avoiding interference of the edge protection portion 212 caused by the sliding deformation of each functional film layer, which would cause the main protective portion 211 to peel off from the display panel 100. Specifically, from a perspective perpendicular to the display panel 100, the corner protective segment 2126 can be arc-shaped. The corner protective segment 2126 can be used for the transition between the first protective segment 2124 and the second protective segment 2125, so as to realize the encapsulation and protection of the corner position of the display panel 100.

[0062] It should be noted that the first protective segment 2124 extends along the first direction 10, and the bent display part 130 includes a bending shaft extending along the second direction 20. The second direction 20 is set to form a preset angle with the first direction 10. The second partition opening 2123 includes two sub-openings 21231 corresponding to the bent display part 130. One of the sub-openings 21231 is provided on the first protective segment 2124. In this embodiment, the length of the first protective segment 2124 is greater than the length of the second protective segment 2125. The sub-opening 21231 divides the first protective segment 2124 into two parts corresponding to the bent display part 130. The angle between the first direction 10 and the second direction 20 can be set to 90 degrees.

[0063] In one embodiment, please refer to Figures 4-5 The display panel 100 includes a bent state that is bent around the bending axis;

[0064] When the display panel 100 is bent, at the side of the flat display section 140 away from the bent display section 130, the misalignment distance between the end face of the support layer 110 and the plane where the end face of the main protective section 211 is located is less than or equal to a preset distance a, and the distance between the first protective section 2124 and the corner protective section 2126 is greater than the preset distance a.

[0065] It is understood that the display panel 100 may include a planar state and a bent state. When the display panel 100 is in a bent state, it bends around the bending axis. At this time, different functional film layers, such as the support layer 110, flexible substrate 121, display functional layer 122, and polarizer 123, will slip and deform during the bending process of the display panel 100, resulting in a certain misalignment between the different film layers. Obviously, compared with the other functional film layers, the misalignment distance between the support layer 110 and the main body protection part 211 located on opposite sides of the panel body 120 is relatively large. Figure 5 As shown, the preset spacing a is the misalignment spacing between the support layer 110 and the main protective part 211 when the display panel 100 is in the maximum bending angle state. The misalignment spacing is less than or equal to a preset spacing a, and the spacing between the first protective segment 2124 and the corner protective segment 2126 is greater than the preset spacing a. This can effectively prevent the slippage deformation of each functional film layer from interfering with the edge protective part 212 and causing the main protective part 211 to peel off from the display panel 100. Specifically, the preset spacing a is equal to 0.32mm, and the spacing b between the first protective segment 2124 and the corner protective segment 2126 is in the range of 0.35mm to 0.5mm.

[0066] In one embodiment, please refer to Figures 1-3 The frame 220 includes two sub-frames 222, one of which is disposed corresponding to one of the flat display parts 140, and the two sub-frames 222 are spaced apart at the position of the first partition opening 221.

[0067] Of the two flat panel display units 140, one of the flat panel display units 140 is provided with a flexible circuit board 150 at the end away from the bent display unit 130;

[0068] Of the two second protection sections 2125, one of the second protection sections 2125 near the flexible circuit board 150 is provided with a pre-set opening corresponding to the position of the flexible circuit board 150 (not shown in the figure).

[0069] Of the two sub-frames 222, one of the sub-frames 222 near the flexible circuit board 150 is provided with an avoidance opening 2221 corresponding to the position of the flexible circuit board 150.

[0070] It is understood that, in the two flat panel display units 140, one of the flat panel display units 140 is provided with a flexible circuit board 150 at the end away from the bent display unit 130. Obviously, the flexible circuit board 150 is bent and bound to the side of the flat panel display unit 140 away from the main body protection unit 211 by binding terminals. In the two sub-frames 222, one of the sub-frames 222 near the flexible circuit board 150 is provided with a clearance opening 2221 corresponding to the position of the flexible circuit board 150. The clearance opening 2221 provides sufficient clearance space for the bending and binding of the flexible circuit board 150. In addition, in the two second protection sections 2125, one of the second protection sections 2125 near the flexible circuit board 150 is provided with a preset opening corresponding to the position of the flexible circuit board 150. The preset opening facilitates the subsequent setting of power or audio wiring at the position of the preset opening on the display device.

[0071] It should be noted that the preset opening is set on the second protection section 2125 at a position corresponding to the flexible circuit board 150. The size of the preset opening can be set according to actual needs. The avoidance opening 2221 is set on the sub-frame 222 at a position corresponding to the flexible circuit board 150. Under the condition of avoiding interference between the sub-frame 222 and the flexible circuit board 150, the size of the avoidance opening 2221 is not specifically limited.

[0072] In one embodiment, please refer to Figures 2-5 The sub-frame 222 is U-shaped and is located on the edge of the support layer 110 away from the panel body 120. It can be understood that the U-shaped sub-frame 222 and its arrangement along the edge of the display panel 100 effectively ensure the supporting rigidity of the edge protection portion 212 encapsulated around the panel body 120.

[0073] In one embodiment, please refer to Figures 6-9 The display device further includes a middle frame 300, the middle frame 300 including a bending hinge 310 corresponding to the bending display part 130 and two frame bodies 320 respectively connected to the bending hinge 310. The bending hinge 310 includes two movable ends 311, and one of the frame bodies 320 is connected to one of the movable ends 311 of the bending hinge 310.

[0074] The frame 320 includes a connecting protrusion 321 and a receiving groove 322 that mates with the sub-frame 222. The connecting protrusion 321 is connected to the side of the support layer 110 away from the panel body 120. The connecting sub-part 2122 and the sub-frame 222 are disposed in the receiving groove 322. The connecting sub-part 2122 is spaced apart from the middle frame 300, and the sub-frame 222 is spaced apart from the middle frame 300.

[0075] It is understood that the frame 320 includes a connecting protrusion 321 and a receiving groove 322 that mates with the sub-frame 222. The connecting protrusion 321 is connected to the side of the support layer 110 away from the panel body 120, that is, the middle frame 300 is connected to the display panel 100 through the connecting protrusion 321. The shape of the receiving groove 322 matches the shape of the sub-frame 222 so that the sub-frame 222 is disposed within the receiving groove 322. Furthermore, by spacing the sub-frame 222 from the middle frame 300... The connecting sub-part 2122 is spaced apart from the middle frame 300, so that the sub-bezel 222 and the middle frame 300 are in a gap fit. This gap fit between the connecting sub-part 2122 and the middle frame 300 reduces the assembly difficulty of the encapsulation component and the middle frame 300, and also provides a certain clearance space between the middle frame 300 and the sub-bezel 222. This prevents the frame 320 and the sub-bezel 222 from interfering with each other during the bending process of the display device, which would cause the main protective part 211 to peel off from the display panel 100.

[0076] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 9 The frame 320 also includes a side frame portion 323 located on the side of the side protection sub-part 2121 away from the display panel 100. The receiving groove 322 is located between the connecting protrusion 321 and the side frame portion 323. The side protection sub-part 2121 and the side frame portion 323 are spaced apart.

[0077] It is understood that the frame 320 also includes a side frame portion 323 located on the side of the side protection sub-part 2121 away from the display panel 100. Obviously, the side frame portion 323 can better protect the periphery of the display panel 100. In addition, the receiving groove 322 is located between the connecting protrusion 321 and the side frame portion 323. The side protection sub-part 2121 and the side frame portion 323 are spaced apart. On the basis of protecting the periphery of the display panel 100 through the side frame portion 323, the spaced arrangement of the side protection sub-part 2121 and the side frame portion 323 also avoids the frame 320 and the sub-frame portion 222 interfering with each other during the bending of the display device, which would cause the main protective part 211 to peel off from the display panel 100.

[0078] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 9 The connecting protrusion 321 is provided with a first adhesive layer 160 on the side near the support layer 110, and the connecting protrusion 321 is connected to the support layer 110 through the first adhesive layer 160.

[0079] It is understood that the connecting protrusion 321 can be connected to the support layer 110 through the first adhesive layer 160, thereby improving the convenience and reliability of assembling the middle frame 300 and the display panel 100 in the display device. Specifically, the first adhesive layer 160 can be a mesh adhesive, frame adhesive or easy-pull adhesive.

[0080] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 9 The main protective part 211 is provided with a second adhesive layer 170 on the side near the panel body 120, and the main protective part 211 is bonded to the panel body 120 through the second adhesive layer 170.

[0081] It is understood that the main protective part 211 can be bonded to the panel body 120 through the second adhesive layer 170, thereby improving the convenience and reliability of assembling the protective layer 210 and the display panel 100 in the display device. Specifically, the material of the second adhesive layer 170 can be optical adhesive.

[0082] This embodiment of the application provides a protective layer 210 on the side of the panel body 120 away from the support layer 110, and extends the side of the protective layer 210 around the periphery of the display panel 100 to the side of the support layer 110 away from the panel body 120 and connects with the frame 220. This achieves encapsulation and protection of the surface and periphery of the panel body 120 without reducing the screen ratio of the display device.
