Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of display module molding, and more particularly to a display module injection molding die and a method for counteracting changes in potting pressure during the molding process. Background Technology

[0002] In existing technologies, the injection molding of display modules typically uses upper and lower molds that are closed together. These molds are generally made of metal, with the inner cavity of the upper mold being the same size as the outer contour of the glass cover. The upper mold's inner surface is fitted and positioned against the edge of the glass cover. After mold closing, glue is poured in through the injection port. However, this approach suffers from drawbacks. Due to dimensional tolerances in the glass cover, different products may have varying dimensions, and some products may have interference fits or gaps with the mold, potentially leading to extrusion deformation or glue overflow during injection. Summary of the Invention

[0003] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this invention provides a method for counteracting changes in potting pressure during the molding process of a display module, thereby ensuring that the product frame size is consistent after potting and avoiding extrusion deformation or potting overflow.

[0004] The present invention provides a method for offsetting changes in potting pressure during the molding process of a display module. The changes in potting pressure are offset by adjusting the distance 'a' between the other layers of the display module (excluding the glass cover plate) and the edge of the glass cover plate to adjust the potting cross-sectional area.

[0005] In one embodiment, the method further includes adjusting the position a1 closest to the dispensing port to be the smallest, and the position a1 furthest from the dispensing port to be the smallest. n maximum.

[0006] In one embodiment, the maximum and minimum values ​​of the distance 'a' from the other layers to the edge of the glass cover plate satisfy 0.1 mm. max -a min <0.4mm.

[0007] In one embodiment, the maximum and minimum values ​​of the distance 'a' from the other stacked layers to the edge of the glass cover plate satisfy 'a'. max -a min =0.3mm.

[0008] In one embodiment, adjusting the distance 'a' of the display module's other stacked layers (excluding the glass cover) to the edge of the glass cover includes adjusting the distance 'a' of all other stacked layers (excluding the glass cover) to the edge of the glass cover before integrally cutting all film layers.

[0009] The above-mentioned technical features can be combined in various technically feasible ways to produce new implementation schemes, as long as the purpose of the present invention can be achieved. Attached Figure Description

[0022] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that, as long as there is no conflict, the various embodiments and features in each embodiment of the present invention can be combined with each other, and the resulting technical solutions are all within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0023] For any parts not mentioned in this invention, existing technologies can be used or referenced.

[0024] The present invention provides a method for offsetting the change in dispensing pressure during the molding process of a display module. The change in dispensing pressure is offset by adjusting the distance a (mm) from other laminates except the glass cover plate to the edge of the glass cover plate of the display module to adjust the dispensing cross-sectional area.

[0025] As Figure 8 and Figure 9 shown, the distance a from other laminates except the glass cover plate (such as OCA, POL, Panel, BP, SCF, etc.) to the edge of the glass cover plate can be adjusted to adjust the dispensing cross-sectional area to offset the inconsistent width after injection molding caused by the decrease in dispensing pressure. This method requires that the interference amount between the mold core and the glass cover plate of the mold does not need to be very large or can be almost unchanged.

[0026] Among them, at the position a1 near the dispensing port, it is the smallest, and at the position a2 far from the dispensing port, it is the largest. And among them, the maximum value and the minimum value of the distance a from other laminates except the glass cover plate to the edge of the glass cover plate satisfy 0.1mm < a max -a min < 0.4mm, that is, the overall dimension change amount of the display module is 0.1mm < amax - amin < 0.4mm. More preferably, the maximum value and the minimum value of the distance a from other laminates except the glass cover plate to the edge of the glass cover plate satisfy a max -a min = 0.3mm.

[0027] After adjustment, the gradient cutting trajectory can be set according to the size, and the film layer can be cut integrally along the gradient cutting trajectory.
