[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of display, in particular to a display module and electronic equipment. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the development of science and technology, electronic equipment is applied more and more widely. Usually, a display module is installed in the electronic equipment, and the display module is used for display, so that the user can watch videos, images and the like through the display module. However, in the related art, the display effect of the display module in the electronic equipment is single. SUMMARY

[0003] Embodiments of the present application provide a display module and electronic equipment to solve the problem of single display effect of the display module in the electronic equipment in the related art.

[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present application is implemented as follows:

[0005] In a first aspect, the embodiments of the present application provide a display module, which comprises a light-transmitting layer, a first display layer and a second display layer arranged in layers.

[0006] The first display layer comprises a plurality of movable display particles, the second display layer has a display pixel area, and the display module has a first display state and a second display state.

[0007] In the case where the display module is in the first display state, the plurality of display particles shield the display pixel area, the display pixel area is powered off, so that the first display layer displays.

[0008] In the case where the display module is in the second display state, the plurality of display particles avoid the display pixel area, the display pixel area is powered on, so that the second display layer displays.

[0009] In a second aspect, the embodiments of the present application provide an electronic equipment, which comprises the display module in the first aspect.

[0010] In the embodiment of the present application, since the light-transmitting layer, the first display layer and the second display layer are stacked, the first display layer is equivalent to being located between the light-transmitting layer and the second display layer. Therefore, when the first display layer displays, the light of the first display layer can pass through the light-transmitting layer, so that the display module presents the display effect of the first display layer; when the second display layer displays, the light of the second display layer can pass through the first display layer and the light-transmitting layer, so that the display module presents the display effect of the second display layer. In addition, the first display layer includes a plurality of movable display particles, and the second display layer has a display pixel region, so that the display particles can move to different positions when the display module is in different states, thereby making the first display layer or the second display layer display. Specifically, when the display module is in a first display state, the plurality of display particles move above the display pixel region, so that the plurality of display particles block the display pixel region, and the display pixel region is powered off, so that the display pixel region does not display, and the first display layer displays through the plurality of display particles; when the display module is in a second display state, the plurality of display particles avoid the display pixel region, and the display pixel region is powered on, so that the display pixel region displays, and the second display layer displays through the display pixel region. That is, in the embodiment of the present application, by arranging the first display layer and the second display layer, the first display layer and the second display layer can be switched to display when the display module displays, that is, the first display layer displays and the second display layer does not display, or the first display layer does not display and the second display layer displays, thereby achieving the effect of switching the display effect of the display module, and making the display effect of the display module diversified.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0020] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative work fall within the protection scope of the present application.

[0021] It should be understood that the terms “one embodiment” or “an embodiment” mentioned throughout the specification mean that the specific features, structures or characteristics related to the embodiment are included in at least one embodiment of the present application. Therefore, “in one embodiment” or “in an embodiment” appearing throughout the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment. In addition, these specific features, structures or characteristics can be combined in one or more embodiments in any suitable manner.

[0022] As shown in Fig. 1, the display module includes a light-transmitting layer 10, a first display layer 20 and a second display layer 30 arranged in a stack. Figures 1 to 7

[0023] The first display layer 20 includes a plurality of movable display particles 201, and the second display layer 30 has a display pixel region 31. The display module has a first display state and a second display state. In the case where the display module is in the first display state, the plurality of display particles 201 shield the display pixel region 31, and the display pixel region 31 is powered off, so that the first display layer 20 displays. In the case where the display module is in the second display state, the plurality of display particles 201 avoid the display pixel region 31, and the display pixel region 31 is powered on, so that the second display layer 20 displays.

[0024] ​In the embodiment of the present application, since the light-transmitting layer 10, the first display layer 20 and the second display layer 30 are stacked, the first display layer 20 is equivalent to being located between the light-transmitting layer 10 and the second display layer 30. Therefore, when the first display layer 20 is displayed, the light of the first display layer 20 can pass through the light-transmitting layer 10, so that the display module presents the display effect of the first display layer 20; when the second display layer 30 is displayed, the light of the second display layer 30 can pass through the first display layer 20 and the light-transmitting layer 10, so that the display module presents the display effect of the second display layer 30. In addition, the first display layer 20 includes a plurality of movable display particles 201, and the second display layer 30 has a display pixel area 31, so that the display particles 201 can move to different positions when the display module is in different states, thereby making the first display layer 20 or the second display layer 30 display. Specifically, when the display module is in a first display state, the plurality of display particles 201 move above the display pixel area 31, so that the plurality of display particles 201 block the display pixel area 31, and the display pixel area 31 is powered off, so that the display pixel area 31 does not display, and the first display layer 20 displays through the plurality of display particles 201; when the display module is in a second display state, the plurality of display particles 201 avoid the display pixel area 31, and the display pixel area 31 is powered on, so that the display pixel area 31 displays, and the second display layer 30 displays through the display pixel area 31. That is, in the embodiment of the present application, by arranging the first display layer 20 and the second display layer 30, the first display layer 20 and the second display layer 30 can be switched to display when the display module displays, that is, the first display layer 20 displays and the second display layer 30 does not display, or the first display layer 20 does not display and the second display layer 30 displays, thereby achieving the effect of switching the display effect of the display module, and diversifying the display effect of the display module.

[0025] It should be noted that the first display layer 20 can be a display layer of an ink screen, and the second display layer 30 can be a display layer of an LCD display screen. Of course, the second display layer 30 can also be a display layer of an OLED display screen, a display layer of a mini-led display screen, or a display layer of a micro-led display screen. The specific type of the second display layer 30 is not limited in the embodiment of the present application. In addition, when the second display layer 30 is a display layer of an LCD display screen, at this time, the light-transmitting layer 10 can be a color film glass in the LCD display screen.

[0026] It should be further noted that in the embodiment of the present application, the light-transmitting layer 10, the first display layer 20 and the second display layer 30 are sequentially stacked, that is, the first display layer 20 is located between the light-transmitting layer 10 and the second display layer 30.

[0027] In addition, in the embodiments of the present application, the display particles 201 are used for display, and the display pixel area 31 is also used for display.

[0028] In addition, in some embodiments, the first display layer 20 can include a plurality of display units, and the plurality of display units are adjacent to each other. The display unit includes a containing shell 21, and the containing shell 21 has opposite first and second light transmission surfaces 211 and 212. The first light transmission surface 211 is close to the light transmission layer 10, and the second light transmission surface 212 is close to the second display layer 30. A plurality of display particles 201 are arranged in each containing shell 21. A first light shielding layer 213 is arranged on the first light transmission surface 211, and the first light shielding layer 213 covers part of the first light transmission surface 211. In the case that the display module is in the first display state, the plurality of display particles 201 are located in a target area of the containing shell 21. The target area is an area in the containing shell 21 that is not shielded by the first light shielding layer 213 in the direction from the light transmission layer 10 to the second display layer 30. In the case that the display module is in the second display state, the plurality of display particles 201 are located in an area of the containing shell 21 that is shielded by the first light shielding layer 213.

[0029] Since the plurality of display units are adjacent to each other, and the display unit includes the containing shell 21, the containing shell 21 has opposite first and second light transmission surfaces 211 and 212, and the plurality of display particles 201 are arranged in each containing shell 21, and the first light shielding layer 213 is arranged on the first light transmission surface 211, the positions of the plurality of display particles 201 can be adjusted, so that the plurality of display particles 201 move in the containing shell 21. When the plurality of display particles 201 move to an area that is not shielded by the first light shielding layer 213, the light of the plurality of display particles 201 can pass through the light transmission layer 10, so that the display module presents the display effect of the first display layer 20. When the plurality of display particles 201 move to an area that is shielded by the first light shielding layer 213, the light of the plurality of display particles 201 will be shielded by the first light shielding layer 213, so that the display module does not present the display effect of the first display layer 20. Specifically, in the case that the display module is in the first display state, the plurality of display particles 201 are located in the target area of the containing shell 21, so that the light of the plurality of display particles 201 can pass through the light transmission layer 10, so that the display module presents the display effect of the first display layer 20. In the case that the display module is in the second display state, the plurality of display particles 201 are located in an area of the containing shell 21 that is shielded by the first light shielding layer 213, so that the light of the display particles 201 will be shielded by the first light shielding layer 213, so that the display module does not display the display effect of the first display layer 20. That is, by arranging the plurality of display particles 201, whether the display module presents the display effect of the first display layer 20 can be determined by moving the plurality of display particles 201.

[0030] In addition, in some embodiments, as Figure 3As shown, the side wall of the accommodating shell 21 can be provided with the first electrode piece 22 and the second electrode piece 23, and the first electrode piece 22 is located in the target region of the accommodating shell 21, and the second electrode piece 23 is located in the region of the accommodating shell 21 which is shielded by the first light shielding layer 213. The side wall of the accommodating shell 21 is the shell wall between the first light transmission surface 211 and the second light transmission surface 212 of the accommodating shell 21. In the case that the display module is in the first display state, the first electrode piece 22 is powered off, and the second electrode piece 23 is powered on, and the second electrode piece 23 drives the plurality of display particles 201 to enter the target region of the accommodating shell 21; in the case that the display module is in the second display state, the first electrode piece 22 is powered on, and the second electrode piece 23 is powered off, and the first electrode piece 22 drives the plurality of display particles 201 to enter the region of the accommodating shell 21 which is shielded by the first light shielding layer 213.

[0031] As shown, the side wall of the accommodating shell 21 can be provided with the first electrode piece 22 and the second electrode piece 23, and the first electrode piece 22 is located in the target region of the accommodating shell 21, and the second electrode piece 23 is located in the region of the accommodating shell 21 which is shielded by the first light shielding layer 213. The side wall of the accommodating shell 21 is the shell wall between the first light transmission surface 211 and the second light transmission surface 212 of the accommodating shell 21. In the case that the display module is in the first display state, the first electrode piece 22 is powered off, and the second electrode piece 23 is powered on, and the second electrode piece 23 drives the plurality of display particles 201 to enter the target region of the accommodating shell 21; in the case that the display module is in the second display state, the first electrode piece 22 is powered on, and the second electrode piece 23 is powered off, and the first electrode piece 22 drives the plurality of display particles 201 to enter the region of the accommodating shell 21 which is shielded by the first light shielding layer 213.

[0032] It should be noted that in the embodiments of the present application, the first electrode piece 22 and the second electrode piece 23 can be electrode sheets, i.e., metal sheets, so that the electrode sheets can be powered on to be charged, or the power supply to the electrode sheets can be stopped to be powered off.

[0033] In addition, in the embodiment of the present application, the shape of the housing 21 can be a cube. Of course, the shape of the housing 21 can also be other shapes, for example, the shape of the housing 21 is cylindrical. The embodiment of the present application does not limit the specific shape of the housing 21. Figure 4 As shown, the shape of the housing 21 is a cube. Figure 5 As shown, the first electrode sheet is located in area b and area c, and the second electrode sheet is located in area d. Area a, area b, and area C are all blocked by the first light shielding layer 213, and area d is not blocked by the first light shielding layer 213. When the first display layer 20 displays, the first electrode sheet is powered off and the second electrode sheet is powered on. Figure 5 As shown, the second electrode sheet attracts multiple display particles 201, so that the multiple display particles 201 move to the area d, so that the display module presents the display effect of the first display layer 20; when the first display layer 20 is not displaying, the first electrode sheet is energized and the second electrode sheet is de-energized, as shown in FIG. Figure 7 As shown, the first electrode sheet attracts multiple display particles 201, so that the multiple display particles 201 move to area b and area c. The multiple display particles 201 are blocked by the first shading layer 213, so that the display module does not show the display effect of the first display layer 20.

[0034] In addition, in the embodiment of the present application, the voltages of the first electrode member 22 and the second electrode member 23 can be controlled so that the number of the plurality of display particles 201 entering the area not blocked by the first light shielding layer 213 is controlled, thereby fine-tuning the display effect of the first display layer 20.

[0035] In addition, in some embodiments, a second light-shielding layer 214 is provided on the second light-transmitting surface 212, the second light-shielding layer 214 is positioned opposite to the first light-shielding layer 213, and the shape of the second light-shielding layer 214 is the same as that of the first light-shielding layer 213, and the area of ​​the second light-shielding layer 214 is equal to that of the first light-shielding layer 213.

[0036] When a second light-shielding layer 214 is provided on the second light-transmitting surface 212, and the second light-shielding layer 214 is positioned opposite to the first light-shielding layer 213, and the shape of the second light-shielding layer 214 is the same as that of the first light-shielding layer 213, and the area of ​​the second light-shielding layer 214 is equal to the area of ​​the first light-shielding layer 213, at this time, it is equivalent to that the first light-shielding layer 213 can completely block the second light-shielding layer 214, that is, the projection of the first light-shielding layer 213 on the second display layer 30 coincides with the projection of the second light-shielding layer 214 on the second display layer 30, so that after multiple display particles 201 move to the area blocked by the first light-shielding layer 213 in the containing shell 21, the light of the display particles 201 will also be blocked by the second light-shielding layer 214, thereby avoiding the problem of light leakage in the display module.

[0037] In addition, in some embodiments, the number of display pixel regions 31 is multiple, and the display pixel regions 31 are opposite to the target region position and are used for display. When the display module is in the first display state, the display particles 201 emit first light, and the first light is transmitted from the first light-transmitting surface 211; when the display module is in the second display state, the display pixel regions 31 emit second light, and the second light enters the target region through the second light-transmitting surface 212 and is transmitted from the first light-transmitting surface 211.

[0038] Since the number of display pixel regions 31 is multiple, and the display pixel regions 31 are opposite to the target region position, the first display layer 20 and the display pixel regions 31 can be controlled, so that the display module presents different display effects. Specifically, when the display module is in the first display state, the display pixel regions 31 do not display, at this time, the multiple display particles 201 in the containing shell 21 in the first display layer 20 are located in the target region of the containing shell 21, the multiple display particles 201 emit first light, and the first light is transmitted from the first light-transmitting surface 211, then passes through the light-transmitting layer 10, so that the display module presents the display effect of the first display layer 20; when the display module is in the second display state, the display pixel regions 31 display, at this time, the multiple display particles 201 in the containing shell 21 in the first display layer 20 enter the region blocked by the first light-blocking layer 213, the display pixel regions 31 emit second light, the second light enters the target region through the second light-transmitting surface 212 and passes through the target region, then passes through the first light-transmitting surface 211, and finally passes through the light-transmitting layer 10, so that the display module presents the display effect of the second display layer 30.

[0039] It should be noted that the display pixel regions 31 have pixel circuits for emitting light, when the display pixel regions 31 display, the pixel circuits can be powered on to make the display pixel regions 31 display, and when the display pixel regions 31 do not display, the pixel circuits can be powered off to make the display pixel regions 31 not display. The pixel circuits can be RGB pixel circuits.

[0040] In addition, in some embodiments, the area of the projection of the target region on the second display layer 30 is equal to the area of the display pixel regions 31, and the shapes are the same.

[0041] Since the area of the projection of the target region on the second display layer 30 is equal to the area of the display pixel region 31 and the shapes are the same, when the first display layer 20 does not display, that is, the plurality of display particles 201 in the containing shell 21 in the first display layer 20 enter the area blocked by the first light shielding layer 213, at this time, the light of the display pixel region 31 can all pass through the target region of the containing shell 21, and then pass through the first light transmission surface 211, and then pass through the light transmission layer 10, so that the display module better presents the display effect of the second display layer 30, and the problem that the light of the display pixel region 31 is blocked by the first light shielding layer 213 and affects the display effect of the display module is avoided. That is, by setting the area of the projection of the target region on the second display layer 30 to be equal to the area of the display pixel region 31 and the shapes to be the same, the display effect of the display module can be improved.

[0042] It should be noted that the shape of the projection of the target region on the second display layer 30 is the same as the shape of the display pixel region 31.

[0043] In addition, in some embodiments, the display module can further include a substrate 40. The substrate 40 is located on the surface of the second display layer 30 away from the first display layer 20, and the substrate 40 is used to support the second display layer 30.

[0044] When the display module includes the substrate 40, and the substrate 40 is located on the surface of the second display layer 30 away from the first display layer 20, at this time, the substrate 40 can support the second display layer 30, and then support the first display layer 20 and the light transmission layer 10, thereby facilitating the display of the first display layer 20 and the second display layer 30.

[0045] It should be noted that in the embodiments of the present application, the substrate 40 can be a glass substrate 40, of course, the substrate 40 can also be a substrate 40 formed of other light transmission materials, for example, the substrate 40 is a resin substrate 40, and the specific material of the substrate 40 is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0046] In addition, in some embodiments, the display module can further include a backlight layer 50, and the backlight layer 50 is located on the side of the substrate 40 away from the second display layer 30, and the backlight layer 50 is used to provide light for the display module.

[0047] When the display module includes the backlight layer 50, and the backlight layer 50 is located on the side of the substrate 40 away from the second display layer 30, therefore, when the display module displays, the backlight layer 50 can provide light for the display module, thereby increasing the display brightness of the display module and improving the display effect of the display module.

[0048] It should be noted that the backlight layer 50 can be provided with a light emitting piece, and the light emitting piece can be an LED lamp.

[0049] In addition, in some embodiments, the display module can further include a cover plate 60 located on the side of the light-transmitting layer 10 away from the first display layer 20, and the cover plate 60 is configured to protect the light-transmitting layer 10.

[0050] When the display module includes the cover plate 60 and the cover plate 60 is located on the side of the light-transmitting layer 10 away from the first display layer 20, the cover plate 60 can protect the light-transmitting layer 10 from being damaged, thereby preventing the first display layer 20 and the second display layer 30 from being damaged. That is, by providing the cover plate 60, the cover plate 60 can protect the light-transmitting layer 10, thereby prolonging the service life of the display module.

[0051] It should be noted that the cover plate 60 can be a glass cover plate 60, of course, the cover plate 60 can also be a cover plate 60 formed of other light-transmitting materials, for example, the cover plate 60 is a resin cover plate 60, and the specific material of the cover plate 60 is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0052] In the embodiment of the present application, since the light-transmitting layer 10, the first display layer 20 and the second display layer 30 are stacked, the first display layer 20 is equivalent to being located between the light-transmitting layer 10 and the second display layer 30, so that when the first display layer 20 is displayed, the light of the first display layer 20 can pass through the light-transmitting layer 10, so that the display module presents the display effect of the first display layer 20; when the second display layer 30 is displayed, the light of the second display layer 30 can pass through the first display layer 20 and the light-transmitting layer 10, so that the display module presents the display effect of the second display layer 30. In addition, the first display layer 20 includes a plurality of movable display particles 201, and the second display layer 30 has a display pixel area 31, so that the display particles 201 can move to different positions when the display module is in different states, so that the first display layer 20 or the second display layer 30 is displayed. Specifically, when the display module is in the first display state, the plurality of display particles 201 move above the display pixel area 31, so that the plurality of display particles 201 shield the display pixel area 31, and the display pixel area 31 is powered off, so that the display pixel area 31 does not display, and the first display layer 20 displays through the plurality of display particles 201; when the display module is in the second display state, the plurality of display particles 201 avoid the display pixel area 31, and the display pixel area 31 is powered on, so that the display pixel area 31 displays, and the second display layer 30 displays through the display pixel area 31. That is, in the embodiment of the present application, by arranging the first display layer 20 and the second display layer 30, the first display layer 20 and the second display layer 30 can be switched to display when the display module displays, that is, the first display layer 20 displays and the second display layer 30 does not display, or the first display layer 20 does not display and the second display layer 30 displays, so as to achieve the effect of switching the display effect of the display module, and make the display effect of the display module diversified.

[0053] The electronic device provided in the embodiment of the present application includes the display module in any of the above embodiments.

[0054] The electronic device can include a housing, and the display module is mounted on the housing.

[0055] When the display module includes the cover plate 60, after the display module is mounted on the housing, the cover plate 60 contacts the external space of the housing of the electronic device, and the light-transmitting layer 10, the first display layer 20 and the second display layer 30 are all located in the housing.

[0056] In the embodiment of the present application, since the light-transmitting layer 10, the first display layer 20 and the second display layer 30 are stacked, the first display layer 20 is equivalent to being located between the light-transmitting layer 10 and the second display layer 30. Therefore, when the first display layer 20 displays, the light of the first display layer 20 can pass through the light-transmitting layer 10, so that the display module presents the display effect of the first display layer 20; when the second display layer 30 displays, the light of the second display layer 30 can pass through the first display layer 20 and the light-transmitting layer 10, so that the display module presents the display effect of the second display layer 30. In addition, the first display layer 20 includes a plurality of movable display particles 201, and the second display layer 30 has a display pixel area 31, so that the display particles 201 can move to different positions when the display module is in different states, thereby making the first display layer 20 or the second display layer 30 display. Specifically, when the display module is in the first display state, the plurality of display particles 201 move above the display pixel area 31, so that the plurality of display particles 201 shield the display pixel area 31, and the display pixel area 31 is powered off, so that the display pixel area 31 does not display, and the first display layer 20 displays through the plurality of display particles 201; when the display module is in the second display state, the plurality of display particles 201 avoid the display pixel area 31, and the display pixel area 31 is powered on, so that the display pixel area 31 displays, and the second display layer 30 displays through the display pixel area 31. That is, in the embodiment of the present application, by arranging the first display layer 20 and the second display layer 30, the first display layer 20 and the second display layer 30 can be switched to display when the display module displays, that is, the first display layer 20 displays and the second display layer 30 does not display, or the first display layer 20 does not display and the second display layer 30 displays, thereby achieving the effect of switching the display effect of the display module, and making the display effect of the display module diversified.
