Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of display technologies, and more particularly, to a display module and a display device. Background Art

[0002] In the prior art, in the film layer structure setting of a display device, as Figure 1 、 Figure 2 shown, since the backlight 01 has a relatively small border and its size is comparable to that of film layer structures such as the array substrate 02 and the color filter substrate 03, when side sealing the display device, it is necessary to spray glue 04 on the side to bond the glass cover plate 05 and the backlight 01 together; since the glass cover plate 05 and the backlight 01 are only bonded together by the side pulling force of the glue 04, when a vertical pulling force is applied, it is easy to cause the problems of separation between the backlight 01 and the glass cover plate 05, and between the backlight 01 and the array substrate 02. Among them, Figure 2 the arrow shown in represents the downward (vertical direction) pulling force.

[0003] In view of this, the present invention provides a display module and a display device to solve the problem that the backlight is prone to separation from the glass cover plate or the display panel during side sealing.

[0004] In a first aspect, the present application provides a display module, including an array substrate and a color filter substrate which are stacked;

[0005] The array substrate includes a first array substrate area and a second array substrate area surrounding the first array substrate area; the color filter substrate is disposed within the area where the first array substrate area is located;

[0006] The second array substrate area of the array substrate includes a plurality of first recessed portions which are spaced apart, and the plurality of first recessed portions surround the first array substrate area. The first recessed portions are recessed from the side of the second array substrate area away from the first array substrate area towards the direction close to the first array substrate area.

[0007] In a second aspect, the present application provides a display device, and the display device includes the display module.

[0008] Compared with the prior art, the display module and the display device provided by the present invention achieve at least the following beneficial effects:

[0009] The present application provides a display module and a display device. By arranging the color filter substrate in the first array substrate area of the array substrate, and arranging the second array substrate area around the first array substrate area in the array substrate to include a plurality of first recesses arranged at intervals, the first recesses are recessed from the side of the second array substrate area away from the first array substrate area towards the direction close to the first array substrate area; that is, making the array substrate extend beyond the color filter substrate, and making a plurality of recesses in the extended part, so that the rubber frame and the edge-sealing glue in the subsequent edge-sealing process can form corresponding inlaid structures with the above structures of the array substrate, thereby improving the requirements for the pulling force of the sealant between the glass cover plate and the backlight module and between the array substrate and the backlight module.

[0010] Of course, any product implementing the present invention does not necessarily need to achieve all the above-mentioned technical effects simultaneously.

[0011] Other features and advantages of the present invention will become clear through the following detailed description of the exemplary embodiments of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0035] Various exemplary embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that: Unless otherwise specifically stated, the relative arrangements of components and steps, numerical expressions and values set forth in these embodiments do not limit the scope of the present invention.

[0036] The following description of at least one exemplary embodiment is merely illustrative in nature and is in no way intended as a limitation on the present invention, its application, or its use.

[0037] Techniques, methods, and devices known to those of ordinary skill in the relevant art may not be discussed in detail, but where appropriate, such techniques, methods, and devices should be considered as part of the specification.

[0038] In all the examples shown and discussed herein, any specific values should be construed as merely exemplary and not as a limitation. Thus, other examples of the exemplary embodiments may have different values.

[0039] It should be noted that: Similar reference numerals and letters denote similar items in the following drawings. Therefore, once an item is defined in one drawing, it does not need to be further discussed in subsequent drawings.

[0040] In the prior art, since the backlight frame is relatively small and its size is comparable to that of film layer structures such as the display panel and the color filter substrate, the glass cover plate and the backlight are combined only by the side pulling force of the glue. When a vertical pulling force is applied, it is easy to cause the problems of separation between the backlight and the glass cover plate, and between the backlight and the display panel.

[0041] In view of this, the present invention provides a display module and a display device to solve the problem that the backlight is easily separated from the glass cover plate or the display panel during side sealing.

[0042] Figure 3 As shown is a top view of a display module provided by an embodiment of the present application, Figure 4 As shown is a top perspective view of an array substrate and a color filter substrate provided by an embodiment of the present application, Figure 5 As shown in the embodiments of the present application Figure 4 A cross-sectional view of AA' in Figures 3 - 5 , the present application provides a display module 100, including an array substrate 10 and a color filter substrate 20 which are stacked;

[0043] The array substrate 10 includes a first array substrate region 11 and a second array substrate region 12 surrounding the first array substrate region 11; the color filter substrate 20 is disposed within the region where the first array substrate region 11 is located;

[0044] The second array substrate region 12 of the array substrate 10 includes a plurality of first recessed portions 31 arranged at intervals, and the plurality of first recessed portions 31 surround the first array substrate region 11. The first recessed portions 31 are recessed from the side of the second array substrate region 12 away from the first array substrate region 11 towards the direction close to the first array substrate region 11.

[0045] Specifically, the present application provides a display module 100, which includes an array substrate 10 and a color filter substrate 20. The array substrate 10 and the color filter substrate 20 are stacked, and the color filter substrate 20 can be disposed on the side of the array substrate 10 facing the light-emitting surface of the display module 100. The array substrate 10 provided by the present application includes a first array substrate region 11 and a second array substrate region 12, wherein the second array substrate region 12 surrounds the first array substrate region 11, and thus the array substrate 10 is divided into two regions for related description.

[0046] Based on the fact that the array substrate 10 provided by the present application includes a first array substrate region 11 and a second array substrate region 12, the present application arranges the color filter substrate 20 to be only correspondingly disposed within the first array substrate region 11, without occupying the area of the second array substrate region 12; with such an arrangement, the array substrate 10 includes an excess portion compared to the color filter substrate 20, and this excess portion is the second array substrate region 12 of the array substrate 10; in the subsequent manufacturing process of the display module 100, it can enable structural components such as the adhesive on the side edge of the display module 100 to have a larger contact area with the array substrate 10, thereby improving the assembly stability of the display module 100.

[0047] In addition, the present application also provides a further setting method, arranging the second array substrate region 12 of the array substrate 10 to include a plurality of first recessed portions 31 arranged at intervals. Each first recessed portion 31 is formed by removing a part of the array substrate 10, specifically, the first recessed portions 31 can be recessed from the side of the second array substrate region 12 away from the first array substrate region 11 towards the direction close to the first array substrate region 11, and the plurality of first recessed portions 31 are arranged around the first array substrate region 11. By further arranging the above-mentioned plurality of first recessed portions 31 on the array substrate 10 that exceeds the color filter substrate 20, the side surface of the array substrate 10 can be made into an uneven surface, and in the subsequent manufacturing process of the display module 100, it can enable structural components such as the adhesive on the side edge of the display module 100 to have a larger contact area with the array substrate 10, thereby improving the assembly stability of the display module 100.

[0048] It should be added that other film layer structures, such as a liquid crystal layer, etc., may also be included between the array substrate 10 and the color filter substrate 20. Specific examples are not provided herein in the present application, nor are the types and quantities of the film layer structures that can be included between the array substrate 10 and the color filter substrate 20 limited.

[0049] It should also be added that the part of the array substrate 10 that extends beyond the color filter substrate 20 may be a full-circle extension around the setting area of the color filter substrate 20 (as Figure 4 ), or only a part of it may extend beyond (not shown). For example, when the display module 100 is rectangular, only the edges on the left and right sides have the part of the array substrate 10 that extends beyond the color filter substrate 20, and so on. The present application does not make specific limitations on this, and users can make corresponding adjustments according to design requirements.

[0050] An optional embodiment provided by the present application is that the width of the part of the array substrate 10 that extends beyond the color filter substrate 20 can be selected to be greater than 0.12 mm.

[0051] Figure 6 Shown is a top perspective view of the glue frame, array substrate, and color filter substrate provided by the embodiment of the present application. Figure 7 Shown is provided by the embodiment of the present application Figure 6 a cross-sectional view of BB' in Figure 6 and Figure 7 , optionally, the display module 100 further includes a glue frame 40;

[0052] The glue frame 40 is at least partially disposed within the area where the second array substrate area 12 of the array substrate 10 is located.

[0053] The glue frame 40 includes a first glue frame portion 41 and a second glue frame portion 42 that are alternately arranged. The first glue frame portion 41 and the first recessed portion 31 are arranged in one-to-one correspondence, and at least a part of the first glue frame portion 41 is filled in the first recessed portion 31.

[0054] Specifically, the display module 100 provided by the present application includes a glue frame 40. The setting position of the glue frame 40 is mainly in the area where the second array substrate area 12 of the array substrate 10 is located, and the area on the side of the second array substrate area 12 away from the first array substrate area 11. Some parts may also extend into the first array substrate area 11; that is, the present application does not make specific limitations on the specific area position that the glue frame 40 occupies when it is set, and users can adjust the setting position of the glue frame 40 according to design requirements and space conditions.

[0055] The glue frame 40 and the second array substrate area 12 are arranged in a similar figure form in a surrounding manner. The glue frame 40 includes a first glue frame part 41 and a second glue frame part 42 which are arranged alternately. Among them, the first glue frame part 41 is arranged in one-to-one correspondence with the first recessed part 31 in the array substrate 10, that is, the number of the first glue frame parts 41 of the glue frame 40 is set corresponding to the number of the first recessed parts 31 in the array substrate 10 of the display module 100; further, the first glue frame part 41 can be set to at least partially fill in the first recessed part 31. Compared with the situation where the glue frame 40 is arranged on the side of the array substrate 10 away from the color filter substrate 20, in this application, the first glue frame part 41 in the glue frame 40 can be set to partially fill in the first recessed part 31 of the array substrate 10, increasing the contact area between the glue frame 40 and the array substrate 10, thereby increasing the assembly stability between the glue frame 40 and the array substrate 10, and thus improving the assembly stability of the display module 100.

[0056] It should be noted that the shape of the first recessed part 31 is not specifically limited in this application. The part of the first glue frame part 41 filled into the first recessed part 31 can be selected to form a fitting relationship with the first recessed part 31, so as to further improve the assembly stability between the glue frame 40 and the array substrate 10, and thus improve the assembly stability of the display module 100.

[0057] Please continue to refer to Figure 6 and Figure 7 , optionally, the first glue frame part 41 includes a first part 411 and a second part 412, and the first part 411 is located on the side of the second part 412 facing the color filter substrate 20;

[0058] The second part 412 is located on the side of the array substrate 10 away from the color filter substrate 20, and the first part 411 is filled in the first recessed part 31.

[0059] Specifically, each first glue frame part 41 in the glue frame 40 provided in this application can be specifically divided into a first part 411 and a second part 412, where the first part 411 is located on the side of the second part 412 facing the color filter substrate 20. The first part 411 and the second part 412 here can be made by integral molding or can be made separately and then connected. The manufacturing method of the first glue frame part 41 including the first part 411 and the second part 412 is not specifically limited in this application, and users can make corresponding selections according to actual needs.

[0060] In this application, the second part 412 included in the first rubber frame part 41 is placed on the side of the array substrate 10 away from the color filter substrate 20. Since the first part 411 is located on the side of the second part 412 facing the color filter substrate 20, it can be set that the first part 411 included in the first rubber frame part 41 is filled in the first recess 31 in the array substrate 10. Due to the presence of the first part 411 in the first rubber frame part 41, the contact area between the rubber frame 40 and the array substrate 10 is increased, thereby improving the assembly stability between the rubber frame 40 and the array substrate 10, and thus enhancing the assembly stability of the display module 100.

[0061] In addition, it can be selectively set that the first part 411 can form a fitting relationship with the first recess 31, so as to further improve the assembly stability between the rubber frame 40 and the array substrate 10, and thus enhance the assembly stability of the display module 100. Of course, this application is not limited thereto, and users can adjust the shapes, sizes, etc. of the first part 411 and the second recess according to design requirements.

[0062] It should be noted that the orthographic projection areas of the first part 411 and the second part 412 on the light-emitting surface of the display module 100 can be the same or different, and this application does not make specific limitations thereto. For example, it can be set that the orthographic projection of the first part 411 on the light-emitting surface of the display module 100 is located within the orthographic projection of the second part 412 on the light-emitting surface of the display module 100.

[0063] Figure 8 Shown is another cross-sectional view of BB' in the embodiment provided by this application. Please refer to Figure 6 and Figure 6 and Figure 8 Optionally, the first part 411 includes a first bonding position 51, and the first bonding position 51 is formed by a depression from the surface of the first part 411 facing the color filter substrate 20 to the side of the second part 412.

[0064] Specifically, an optional setting method provided by this application is to set that the first part 411 in the first rubber frame part 41 includes at least one first bonding position 51. This first bonding position 51 can be formed by a depression from the surface of the first part 411 facing the color filter substrate 20 to the side of the second part 412, that is, a depression (first bonding position 51) facing the second part 412 is formed on the surface of the first part 411 away from the second part 412. In the subsequent assembly process of the display module 100, the rubber frame 40 and other components will be fixed by an adhesive. This first bonding position 51 can be used for filling the adhesive, thereby increasing the contact area between the adhesive and the rubber frame 40, which is beneficial to improving the assembly stability between the rubber frame 40 and other components, and thus enhancing the assembly stability of the display module 100.

[0065] It should be noted that the present application does not specifically limit the physical conditions such as the number, shape, and size of the first engaging positions 51 included in each first part 411. Users can make corresponding adjustments according to actual design requirements, as long as the existence of the first engaging positions 51 can improve the assembly stability of the display module 100 and does not affect other performances of the display module 100.

[0066] Figure 9 Shown is provided by an embodiment of the present application Figure 6 Another cross-sectional view of BB' in, please refer to Figure 6 and Figure 9 , Optionally, at least one side wall of the first engaging position 51 is adjacent to the surface of the array substrate 10 facing the first part 411.

[0067] Specifically, the present application also provides an alternative setting method. At least one side wall of the first engaging position 51 is adjacent to the surface of the array substrate 10 facing the first part 411. It can also be said that the side surface of the array substrate 10 facing the first part 411 is reused as the side surface of the first engaging position 51 close to the array substrate 10 side; with such a setting, during the subsequent assembly process of the display module 100, the adhesive frame 40, the array substrate 10 and other components will be fixed by the adhesive. This first engaging position 51 can be used for the filling of the adhesive, so as to increase the contact area between the adhesive and the adhesive frame 40 and the array substrate 10, which is beneficial to increasing the assembly stability between the adhesive frame 40, the array substrate 10 and other components, thereby improving the assembly stability of the display module 100.

[0068] Figure 10 Shown is a cross-sectional view of a display module provided by an embodiment of the present application Figure 8 corresponding to, Figure 11 Shown is a cross-sectional view of a display module provided by an embodiment of the present application Figure 9 corresponding to, please refer to Figure 6 , Figures 8 - 11 , Optionally, it further includes a sealing edge adhesive 60;

[0069] The sealing edge adhesive 60 is filled in the first engaging position 51.

[0070] Specifically, the display module 100 provided by the present application further includes a sealing edge adhesive 60 and a glass cover plate 80. The glass cover plate 80 is located on the side of the color filter substrate 20 away from the array substrate 10. The sealing edge adhesive 60 can be used to achieve the firm bonding between the array substrate 10, the adhesive frame 40 and the glass cover plate 80; in the above-provided embodiment, the present application provides an embodiment in which the first part 411 of the first adhesive frame part 41 of the adhesive frame 40 includes the first engaging position 51. At this time, it can be set that a part of the sealing edge adhesive 60 is filled into the first engaging position 51 when it is set.

[0071] Such asFigure 10 As shown, when the side surface of the first bonding position 51 close to the array substrate 10 is not formed by reusing the side surface of the array substrate 10 facing the first part 411, filling part of the edge-sealing adhesive 60 into the first bonding position 51 is beneficial to increasing the contact area between the edge-sealing adhesive 60 and the rubber frame 40, thereby improving the assembly stability between the rubber frame 40 and the glass cover plate 80, and thus improving the assembly stability of the display module 100.

[0072] As Figure 11 shown, when the side surface of the first bonding position 51 close to the array substrate 10 is formed by reusing the side surface of the array substrate 10 facing the first part 411, filling part of the edge-sealing adhesive 60 into the first bonding position 51 is beneficial to increasing the contact area between the edge-sealing adhesive 60, the rubber frame 40 and the array substrate 10, improving the pulling force between the film layer structures, thereby improving the assembly stability between the rubber frame 40, the array substrate 10 and the glass cover plate 80, and thus improving the assembly stability of the display module 100.

[0073] It should be added that the present application does not specifically limit the setting height of the first rubber frame part 41, as long as it does not exceed the surface of the glass cover plate 80 facing the array substrate 10.

[0074] Figure 12 Shown is a cross-sectional view of CC' provided by an embodiment of the present application. Please refer to Figure 6 and Figure 6 , Figure 12 , optionally, the array substrate 10 further includes a first protrusion 32, and the first protrusion 32 is located between two adjacent first recesses 31;

[0075] The second rubber frame part 42 is provided in one-to-one correspondence with the first protrusion 32;

[0076] The second rubber frame part 42 is located on the side of the first protrusion 32 away from the color filter substrate 20.

[0077] Specifically, in addition to the above-mentioned first recess 31 in the second array substrate area 12 of the array substrate 10, there is also a first protrusion 32. The first protrusion 32 and the first recess 31 are alternately arranged and seamlessly connected in the second array substrate area 12. The present application does not specifically limit the manufacturing method of the first protrusion 32 and the first recess 31 in the second array substrate area 12 of the array substrate 10, as long as such a structure can be formed in the second array substrate area 12.

[0078] The glue frame 40 provided by this application includes a first glue frame part 41 and a second glue frame part 42 which are arranged alternately. The first glue frame part 41 and the first concave part 31 are arranged in one-to-one correspondence. Correspondingly, the second glue frame part 42 and the first convex part 32 are arranged in one-to-one correspondence. Here, it can be set that the second glue frame part 42 is only located on the side of the first convex part 32 away from the color film substrate 20, that is, the second glue frame part 42 is arranged on the side of the array substrate 10 away from the color film substrate 20; the second glue frame part 42 can be used to support the array substrate 10, avoiding the problem of edge part subsidence of the array substrate 10, thereby avoiding damages such as fracture and peeling of the array substrate 10, which is beneficial to improving the production yield of the display module 100.

[0079] Figure 13 Shown is provided by an embodiment of this application Figure 6 Another cross-sectional view of CC' in, please refer to Figure 6 、 Figure 13 Optionally, the second glue frame part 42 includes a second bonding position 52, and the second bonding position 52 is formed by the second glue frame part 42 recessing toward the side of the first array substrate area 11.

[0080] Specifically, an optional setting method provided by this application is that the second glue frame part 42 includes a second bonding position 52; along the extending direction of the array substrate 10, the second bonding position 52 is formed by the surface of the second glue frame part 42 away from the first array substrate area 11 recessing toward the first array substrate area 11. In the subsequent assembly process of the display module 100, the glue frame 40 and other components will be fixed by an adhesive. This second bonding position 52 can be used for filling the adhesive, thereby increasing the contact area between the adhesive and the glue frame 40, which is beneficial to increasing the assembly stability between the glue frame 40 and other components, and thus improving the assembly stability of the display module 100.

[0081] It should be noted that this application does not make specific limitations on the physical conditions such as the number, shape, and size of the second bonding positions 52 included in each second glue frame part 42. Users can make corresponding adjustments according to actual design requirements, as long as the existence of the second bonding positions 52 can improve the assembly stability of the display module 100 and does not affect other performances of the display module 100.

[0082] Figure 14 Shown is provided by an embodiment of this application Figure 6 Another cross-sectional view of CC' in, please refer to Figure 6 、 Figure 14 Optionally, at least one side wall of the second bonding position 52 is adjacent to the surface of the array substrate 10 away from the color film substrate 20.

[0083] Specifically, the present application also provides an alternative setting method. At least one side wall of the second bonding position 52 is adjacent to one side surface of the array substrate 10 facing the second glue frame portion 42. That is to say, the bottom surface of the array substrate 10 facing the second glue frame portion 42 is reused as the side surface of the second bonding position 52 close to the array substrate 10 side. With such a setting, during the subsequent assembly process of the display module 100, the glue frame 40, the array substrate 10 and other components will be fixed by the adhesive. This second bonding position 52 can be used for filling the adhesive, thereby increasing the contact area between the adhesive and the glue frame 40 and the array substrate 10, which is beneficial to increasing the assembly stability between the glue frame 40, the array substrate 10 and other components, and thus improving the assembly stability of the display module 100.

[0084] Figure 15 Shown is provided by an embodiment of the present application Figure 6 An enlarged schematic diagram of the glue frame in area D in, please refer to Figures 6 - 15 In this regard, the present application provides an alternative embodiment. Since the height of the first glue frame portion 41 is relatively high, when the display module 100 includes an iron frame surrounding the backlight module, the first glue frame portion 41 higher than the iron frame can be arranged above the iron frame, and the second glue frame portion 42 will only be located inside the iron frame. Therefore, relatively speaking, the overall width of the first glue frame portion 41 is 0.2 mm - 0.3 mm wider than that of the second glue frame portion 42, which is approximately corresponding to the thickness of the iron frame; the width value range of the first part 411 is 0.2 mm - 0.25 mm; the length value range of the first part 411 is 2 mm - 8 mm; the length value range of the second glue frame portion 42 is 3 mm - 20 mm.

[0086] The sealing edge glue 60 is filled in the second bonding position 52.

[0087] Specifically, the display module 100 provided in the present application further includes a sealing edge glue 60 and a glass cover plate 80. The glass cover plate 80 is located on the side of the color filter substrate 20 away from the array substrate 10. The sealing edge glue 60 can be used to achieve stable bonding between the array substrate 10, the glue frame 40 and the glass cover plate 80. In the above-provided embodiment, the present application provides an embodiment in which the second glue frame portion 42 of the glue frame 40 includes a second bonding position 52. At this time, it can be set that part of the sealing edge glue 60 is filled into the second bonding position 52 when the sealing edge glue 60 is set.

[0088] As Figure 16 shown, when the side surface of the second bonding position 52 close to the array substrate 10 is not formed by reusing the bottom surface of the array substrate 10 facing the second glue frame portion 42, filling part of the sealing edge glue 60 into the second bonding position 52 is beneficial to increasing the contact area between the sealing edge glue 60 and the glue frame 40, thereby improving the assembly stability between the glue frame 40 and the glass cover plate 80, and thus improving the assembly stability of the display module 100.

[0089] As Figure 17 shown, when the side surface of the second bonding position 52 close to the array substrate 10 is formed by reusing the bottom surface of the array substrate 10 facing the second glue frame portion 42, filling part of the sealing edge glue 60 into the second bonding position 52 is beneficial to increasing the contact area between the sealing edge glue 60 and the glue frame 40 and the array substrate 10, thereby improving the assembly stability between the glue frame 40, the array substrate 10 and the glass cover plate 80, and also improving the pulling force between the film layer structures, thus improving the assembly stability of the display module 100.

[0090] It should be added that, please refer to Figure 6 、 Figures 8 - 17 , it is also possible to set both the first bonding position 51 and the second bonding position 52 in the glue frame 40, so as to further improve the assembly stability between the glue frame 40 and the glass cover plate 80, or further improve the assembly stability between the glue frame 40, the array substrate 10 and the glass cover plate 80; both can further improve the assembly stability of the display module 100 to a certain extent.

[0091] It should be noted that the glass cover plate 80 and the color filter substrate 20 may further include other film layer structures, such as an upper polarizer 91, an adhesive layer 92, etc. The present application does not make specific limitations on this, and users can select and set the types of film layer structures required between the color filter substrate 20 and the glass cover plate 80 according to actual needs.

[0092] Figure 18 The following shows a cross-sectional view of a display module corresponding to BB' provided in an embodiment of the present application Figure 6 in Figure 19 The following shows a cross-sectional view of a display module corresponding to BB' provided in an embodiment of the present application Figure 6A cross-sectional view of a display module corresponding to CC', please refer to Figure 6 , Figure 18 , Figure 19 . Optionally, the display module 100 further includes a rubber frame 40;

[0093] The rubber frame 40 is located on the side of the array substrate 10 away from the color filter substrate 20;

[0094] It further includes a light-shielding rubber 70, and at least a part of the light-shielding rubber 70 is located between the rubber frame 40 and the array substrate 10.

[0095] Specifically, the rubber frames 40 included in the display module 100 can be all arranged on the side of the array substrate 10 away from the color filter substrate 20. Further, the display module 100 can be provided with a light-shielding rubber 70. Along the thickness direction of the display module 100, the light-shielding rubber 70 can be arranged between the rubber frame 40 and the array substrate 10 to prevent backlight leakage in the display device.

[0096] It should be noted that, as Figure 18 shown, when the light-shielding rubber 70 is provided, the side surface of the first recess 31 may not be provided with the first part provided in the previous embodiment.

[0097] Please continue to refer to Figure 6 , Figure 18 , Figure 19 . Optionally, it further includes a backlight module 90, and the backlight module 90 is located on the side of the array substrate 10 away from the color filter substrate 20;

[0098] The light-shielding rubber 70 is in contact with the rubber frame 40, the side surface of the array substrate 10 facing the backlight module 90, and the side surface of the backlight module 90 facing the array substrate 10.

[0099] Specifically, in addition to the above-mentioned rubber frame 40, array substrate 10, and color filter substrate 20 in the display module 100, it can further include a backlight module 90, and the backlight module 90 is located on the side of the array substrate 10 away from the color filter substrate 20. When the light-shielding rubber 70 is added in this application, when at least a part of the light-shielding rubber 70 is arranged between the rubber frame 40 and the array substrate 10, the light-shielding rubber 70 is further arranged to be in contact with the rubber frame 40, the side surface of the array substrate 10 facing the backlight module 90, and the side surface of the backlight module 90 facing the array substrate 10; such an arrangement can prevent the edge-sealing glue 60 from penetrating into the interior of the display module 100 between the array substrate 10 and the backlight module 90, and can also prevent external moisture from penetrating into the interior of the display module 100, realizing the protection of the internal components of the display module 100, improving the production yield of the display module 100, and extending the service life.

[0100] Figure 20 Shown is provided by the embodiment of the present application Figure 6Another cross-sectional view of the display module corresponding to BB', Figure 21 as shown in the embodiment provided by the present application Figure 6 Another cross-sectional view of the display module corresponding to CC', please refer to Figure 6 , Figures 18 - 21 . It should be added that a film layer structure such as a lower polarizer may also be included between the backlight module 90 and the array substrate 10. For example, when a lower polarizer is included between the backlight module 90 and the array substrate 10, a light-shielding layer may also be provided to contact the rubber frame 40, the surface of the lower polarizer facing the backlight module 90, and the surface of the backlight module 90 facing the array substrate 10.

[0101] Please refer to Figure 6 . Optionally, the first recesses 31 are evenly distributed in the second array substrate area 12;

[0102] The number of the first recesses 31 is K, where 5 ≤ K ≤ 30.

[0103] Specifically, the number of the first recesses 31 provided in the second array substrate area 12 of the array substrate 10 may be 5 - 30, and the first recesses 31 in the second array substrate area 12 may be equally spaced, so as to uniformly improve the assembly stability of the display module 100 and avoid the situation where the local assembly stability in the display module 100 is relatively poor.

[0104] In addition, if the number of the first recesses 31 in the array substrate 10 is less than 5, the improvement of the assembly stability of the display module 100 is not obvious enough, and there may still be a situation where peeling occurs due to the existence of pulling force between some structures; if the number of the first recesses 31 in the array substrate 10 is more than 30, there may not be enough space in the second array substrate area 12. Therefore, the present application sets the number of the first recesses 31 in the second array substrate area 12 to be 5 - 30, which is beneficial to steadily improving the assembly stability of the display module 100 and also beneficial to avoiding the situation of insufficient setting space.

[0105] An alternative embodiment provided by the present application is that the distance between two adjacent first recesses 31 is D1, where 3 mm ≤ D1 ≤ 20 mm; the aperture of the first recess 31 is D2, where 3 mm ≤ D2 ≤ 10 mm; the depth of the first recess 31 is W1, where 0.08 mm ≤ W ≤ 0.2 mm, or it can also be set as 1 mm ≤ W ≤ 0.15 mm. The above is only the alternative setting method of the first recess 31 provided by the present application, and the present application is not limited thereto, and users can make corresponding adjustments according to actual needs.

[0106] Please refer to Figure 6, optionally, in a direction perpendicular to the thickness direction of the display module 100, the cross-sectional shape of the first recess 31 is at least one of a trapezoid, a rectangle, and a minor arc.

[0107] Specifically, the present application does not specifically limit the shape of the first recess 31. For example, in a direction perpendicular to the thickness direction of the display module 100, the cross-sectional shape of the first recess 31 can be a trapezoid, a rectangle, a minor arc, etc., and the user can adjust its shape according to the design requirements. The minor arc can be considered as part of the line segment on the long arc side of an ellipse.
