AI Technical Summary
When existing display devices achieve more zones and higher peak brightness and contrast, the spacing between the light-emitting elements on the LED strip becomes smaller, which leads to the interlocking structure not being able to be placed properly or being too close to the light-emitting elements, causing problems such as subjective light shadows.
In the display device, staggered plug-in mating structures are set on the light strips on both sides of the connector, so that they are not on the same straight line as the extension direction of the light strip, avoiding excessive space occupation after plugging and ensuring reasonable spacing of the light-emitting elements.
This effectively avoids the subjective shadow problem caused by excessive space occupied by the plug-in structure in the display device, and ensures the display effect and the density requirements of the light-emitting elements.

Abstract
Description
[0001] This application claims priority to Chinese patent application No. 202311190262.4, filed on September 14, 2023, entitled “Display Device”, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. Technical Field
[0002] This disclosure relates to the field of display device technology, and more particularly to a display device. Background Technology
[0003] High-Dynamic Range (HDR) display technology can provide more dynamic performance and image details, and can better reflect the inherent visual effects of objects in the real environment, but it also requires LCD display terminals to have more precise zoning control and higher contrast.
[0004] To achieve a greater number of light zones and higher peak brightness and contrast in direct-lit backlight modules, more light-emitting elements are needed for local dimming. For backlight modules with a large number of light zones, existing display devices utilize connectors to install multiple LED strips. This is achieved by setting interlocking terminals on the LED strips and connecting them to the mating sockets on the connectors, thus improving production efficiency. However, because the mating sockets of the connectors have a certain width, when the spacing between the light-emitting elements on the LED strips becomes smaller, the interlocking terminals may not be able to fit properly, or they may be too close to the light-emitting elements, causing subjective lighting shadows on the display device. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In order to solve the above-mentioned technical problems, or at least partially solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this disclosure provides a display device.
[0006] This disclosure provides a display device, including:
[0007] The display panel is configured to display images;
[0008] Backlight module, including connectors and multiple LED strips;
[0009] The light strip includes at least a first light strip and a second light strip, the first light strip and the second light strip are disposed on both sides of the connector, and at least one light-emitting element is disposed on the first light strip and the second light strip;
[0010] The first light strip has a first bend on the side near the connector;
[0011] The second light strip has a fourth bend on the side near the connector;
[0012] The first bend is provided with a first insertion and engagement structure, and the fourth bend is provided with a second insertion and engagement structure;
[0013] The first plug-in mating structure is not located in the length extension direction of the first light strip.
[0014] Optionally, the first bent portion is perpendicularly connected to the first light strip.
[0015] Optionally, the first bent portion is integrally formed with the first light strip.
[0016] Optionally, the fourth bend is provided with a second plug-in mating structure, which is not located in the length extension direction of the second light strip.
[0017] Optionally, the fourth bend is perpendicularly connected to the second light strip.
[0018] Optionally, the fourth bent portion is integrally formed with the second light strip.
[0019] Optionally, the first bend and the fourth bend extend in opposite directions.
[0020] Optionally, the first insertion and mating structure and the second insertion and mating structure are not arranged in parallel.
[0021] Optionally, the first light strip and the second light strip are arranged on the same straight line.
[0022] Optionally, both the first and second plug-in mating structures are offset from the first and second light strips. The technical solution provided by this disclosure has the following advantages compared to the prior art:
[0023] The display device provided in this disclosure has at least one of the first and second plug-in mating structures located on both sides of the connector staggered from the extension direction of the light strip. That is, at least one of the first and second plug-in mating structures located on both sides of the connector is not on the same straight line as the extension direction of the light strip. This ensures that the distance between the first and second light strips on both sides of the connector connected along the extension direction of the light strip is not limited by the size of the first and second plug-in mating structures after they are plugged in. This avoids occupying too much space between the first and second light strips on both sides of the connector after plugging in. In this way, even when the spacing between the light-emitting elements on the light strip becomes smaller, it can still ensure that the first and second plug-in mating structures can be placed separately, and avoids the first and second plug-in mating structures being too close to the light-emitting elements, which would cause problems such as subjective light shadows on the display device, thereby ensuring the display effect of the display device.

[0040] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this disclosure, the solutions disclosed herein will be further described below. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described herein can be combined with each other.
[0041] Numerous specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of this disclosure, but this disclosure may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein; obviously, the embodiments in the specification are only some, and not all, of the embodiments of this disclosure.
[0042] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, some embodiments of this disclosure provide a display device including a display panel and a backlight module, wherein the display panel is configured to display an image.
[0043] In a specific implementation, the backlight module is set on the non-display surface of the display panel. The backlight module includes a connector 20 and multiple light strips 1. Multiple light-emitting elements 10 are arranged sequentially on the light strips 1 along a first direction, wherein the first direction is the extension direction of the light strips 1.
[0044] The plurality of light strips 1 include a first light strip 11 and a second light strip 12. A connector 20 is disposed between the first light strip 11 and the second light strip 12, that is, the first light strip 11 and the second light strip 12 are distributed on both sides of the connector 20. A first plug-in mating structure 30 is provided between the first light strip 11 and the connector 20 to realize the plug-in electrical connection between the first light strip 11 and the connector 20. A second plug-in mating structure 31 is provided between the second light strip 12 and the connector 20 to realize the plug-in electrical connection between the second light strip 12 and the connector 20.
[0045] The first insertion mating structure 30 and the second insertion mating structure 31 are distributed on both sides of the connector 20, and at least one of the first insertion mating structure 30 and the second insertion mating structure 31 is offset from the extension direction of the light strip 1. That is, at least one of the first insertion mating structure 30 and the second insertion mating structure 31 is not on the same straight line as the extension direction of the light strip 1.
[0046] In other words, in the first plug-in mating structure 30 and the second plug-in mating structure 31, one of them may not be on the same straight line as the extension direction of the light strip 1, while the other is normally plugged into the connector 20, that is, the other is on the same straight line as the extension direction of the light strip 1.
[0047] Of course, neither the first plug-in mating structure 30 nor the second plug-in mating structure 31 may be on the same straight line as the extension direction of the light strip 1. That is, the first plug-in mating structure 30 between the first light strip 11 and the connector 20 is not on the same straight line as the extension direction of the light strip 1, and the second plug-in mating structure 31 between the second light strip 12 and the connector 20 is also not on the same straight line as the extension direction of the light strip 1.
[0048] Specifically, the light strip 1 is typically configured as a long strip structure, and multiple light-emitting elements 10 are arranged sequentially along the first direction of the light strip 1, such as... Figure 1 The left and right directions shown are the first directions of the light strip 1, that is, the extension direction of the light strip 1. Multiple light-emitting elements 10 located on the same light strip 1 are arranged in sequence along the same straight line.
[0049] In practical implementation, the spacing between two adjacent light-emitting elements 10 can be set according to the required number of partitions in the backlight module. When the spacing between two adjacent light-emitting elements 10 on the light strip 1 is small, if the connector 20 and the light strips 1 on both sides still use the existing plug-in mating structure, the spacing between two adjacent light-emitting elements 10 on both sides of the light strip 1 will be large, which cannot meet the requirement of reducing the spacing between two adjacent light-emitting elements 10. In other words, under the requirement of a small spacing, there is a problem that the plug-in mating structure cannot be placed, or the plug-in mating structure is too close to the light-emitting element 10, causing problems such as subjective light shadows on the display device.
[0050] Based on this, the display device provided in this embodiment of the present disclosure, by setting at least one of the first plug-in mating structure 30 and the second plug-in mating structure 31 to be offset from the extension direction of the light strip 1, that is, at least one of the first plug-in mating structure 30 and the second plug-in mating structure 31 is not on the same straight line as the extension direction of the light strip 1, makes the spacing between the first light strip 11 and the second light strip 12 on both sides connected by the connector 20 along the extension direction of the light strip 1 not limited by the size of the first plug-in mating structure 30 and the second plug-in mating structure 31 after plugging, avoiding occupying too much space between the first light strip 11 and the second light strip 12 on both sides connected by the connector 20 after plugging. In this way, when the spacing between the light-emitting elements 10 on the light strip 1 becomes smaller, it can still be ensured that the first plug-in mating structure 30 and the second plug-in mating structure 31 can be placed apart, and the first plug-in mating structure 30 and the second plug-in mating structure 31 are not too close to the light-emitting elements 10, which would cause problems such as subjective light shadows on the display device, thereby ensuring the display effect of the display device.
[0051] In specific implementation, there are multiple first light strips 11 and multiple second light strips 12, which are arranged in pairs on the left and right sides of the connector 20, respectively. That is, multiple first light strips 11 are arranged on one side of the connector 20, and multiple second light strips 12 are arranged on the other side of the connector 20, and the first light strips 11 and second light strips 12 on the same side are arranged along the length direction of the connector 20 (e.g., ...). Figure 1 The vertical direction (as shown) is set at intervals.
[0052] The display device provided in this disclosure will be described in detail below through specific embodiments:
[0053] In some embodiments, both the first plug-in mating structure 30 and the second plug-in mating structure 31 include a first plug-in portion 32 and a second plug-in portion 33 for plug-in mating. A first bending portion 15 is provided on the first light strip 11, and a fourth bending portion 19 is provided on the second light strip 12. The first bending portion 15 is perpendicular to the extension direction of the first light strip 11. The first plug-in portion 32 is disposed on the first bending portion 15, and the fourth bending portion 19 is perpendicular to the extension direction of the second light strip 12. The second plug-in portion 33 is disposed on the fourth bending portion 19. This arrangement allows the first plug-in portion 32 on the first bending portion 15 to be offset from the extension direction of the light strip 1, and the second plug-in portion 33 on the fourth bending portion 19 to be offset from the extension direction of the second light strip 12.
[0054] Reference Figure 1As shown, in some embodiments, the first light strip 11 and the second light strip 12 are provided with a first bend 15 and a fourth bend 19. The first bend 15 is provided with a first insertion portion 32, and the fourth bend 19 is provided with a second insertion portion 33. The second insertion portions 33 located on both sides of the connector 20 are arranged opposite each other. Specifically, the structure of the connector 20 can be referred to Figure 8 As shown, the second insertion portions 33 located on both sides of the connector 20 are arranged opposite each other.
[0055] With this configuration, the arrangement of the second mating portions 33 on the connector 20 can be the same as or similar to the existing arrangement, thus requiring no modification or only slight modification to the connector 20. Furthermore, the pair-to-pair arrangement of the second mating portions 33 on both sides of the connector 20 allows multiple second mating portions 33 to be arranged along the length of the connector 20 (e.g., ...). Figure 8 The arrangement of the LED strips (in the vertical direction shown) is more dense, which can reduce the spacing between two LED strips 1 on the same side, making the arrangement of multiple LED strips 1 on the same side more dense, thereby meeting the requirement of increasing the number of partitions in the backlight module.
[0056] Continue to refer to Figure 1 As shown, the first bend 15 on the first light strip 11 and the fourth bend 19 on the second light strip 12 extend in a direction perpendicular to the extension of the light strip 1. This arrangement makes both the first light strip 11 and the second light strip 12 form an L-shape.
[0057] Furthermore, a first insertion part 32 is provided on the side of the first bending part 15, and a second insertion part 33 is provided on the side of the connector 20. The first insertion part 32 and the second insertion part 33 are inserted and engaged along the extension direction parallel to the light strip 1. The first insertion part 32 on the first light strip 11 and the second insertion part 33 on the connector 20 together form a first insertion and engagement structure 30. The first insertion part 32 on the second light strip 12 and the second insertion part 33 on the connector 20 together form a second insertion and engagement structure 31.
[0058] Of course, in specific implementations, a first bend 15 may also be provided at one end of the first light bar 11 and the second light bar 12 along the extension direction of the light bar 1.
[0059] By providing a first bending portion 15 at the end of the first light strip 11 or the second light strip 12, the first bending portion 15 extends in a direction perpendicular to the extension of the light strip 1, and a first insertion portion 32 for interlocking with the connector 20 is provided on the first bending portion 15, the extension direction of the first insertion portion 32 can be staggered from that of the light strip 1.
[0060] Correspondingly, a second insertion part 33 is provided on the side of the connector 20. Through the cooperation of the first insertion part 32 and the second insertion part 33, the insertion cooperation between the first light strip 11 and the connector 20 and between the second light strip 12 and the connector 20 can be realized. It is also ensured that one of the first insertion cooperation structure 30 provided between the first light strip 11 and the connector 20 and the second insertion cooperation structure 31 provided between the second light strip 12 and the connector 20 is not located on the same straight line as the extension direction of the light strip 1.
[0061] Reference Figure 2 As shown, in some other embodiments, the second insertion portions 33 located on both sides of the connector 20 are staggered, that is, the second insertion portions 33 are arranged along the length direction of the connector 20 (i.e., Figure 2 The vertical direction in the middle is staggered.
[0062] This arrangement allows the second insertion portions 33 located on both sides of the connector 20 to extend along the width direction of the connector 20 (i.e., Figure 2 The left and right directions (in the middle) can be overlapped. The structure of connector 20 can be referred to Figure 9 As shown, the second insertion portions 33 located on both sides of the connector 20 are staggered, which can reduce the size of the connector 20 in the left and right direction, so that the connector 20 will not occupy too much space between the first light strip 11 and the second light strip 12 on both sides of the connector 20, thereby ensuring the display effect of the display device.
[0063] Reference Figure 3 The diagram shown is a cutting schematic of a light strip 1 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The first bending portions 15 of the first light strip 11 and the second light strip 12 extend in the same direction. This arrangement facilitates cutting, reduces material waste, and lowers production costs.
[0064] It should be noted that the extension directions of the first bend 15 of the first light strip 11 and the fourth bend 19 of the second light strip 12 can also be different. Figure 3 The upward direction, or Figure 3 The direction of the light strip 1 is not limited in this disclosure, as long as the first bend 15 can be set to be offset from the extension direction of the light strip 1.
[0065] In a specific implementation, the light-emitting element 10 is disposed near the edge end of the first light strip 11 or the second light strip 12 along the extending direction of the light strip 1, that is, near... Figure 3 The ends are positioned in the left and right directions to reduce the distance between the light-emitting element 10 and the connector 20 located at the ends.
[0066] This configuration reduces the distance between two adjacent light-emitting elements 10 on the first light strip 11 or the second light strip 12 on both sides of the connector 20 that are connected to the connector 20. It avoids the excessive spacing between light-emitting elements 10 caused by the ends of the first light strip 11 or the second light strip 12 occupying too much space between the first light strip 11 or the second light strip 12 on both sides of the connector 20.
[0067] It should be noted that the first light strip 11 and the second light strip 12 located on both sides of the connector 20 can also be configured such that one of them extends with a first bend 15 at its end, or both of them extend with a first bend 15 at their ends and have a first insertion portion 32 on the side of the first bend 15, depending on the actual encryption requirements of the light-emitting element 10. In other words, the first insertion portion 32 of at least one of the first light strip 11 or the second light strip 12 does not need to be on the same straight line as the extension direction of the light strip 1. In other words, at least one of the first insertion mating structure 30 and the second insertion mating structure 31 does not need to be on the same straight line as the extension direction of the light strip 1 to meet the encryption requirements of the light-emitting element 10.
[0068] Furthermore, the second plug-in portions 33 located on both sides of the connector 20 can also be arranged relative to or staggered according to actual usage requirements, as long as the extension directions of the first light strip 11 and the second light strip 12 located on both sides of the connector 20 can be on the same straight line and the multiple light-emitting elements 10 are evenly spaced, thereby ensuring that the multiple zones of the backlight module have a uniform brightness light-emitting effect.
[0069] Specifically, the first plug-in portion 32 can be one of a plug and a socket, and the second plug-in portion 33 can be the other of a plug and a socket. The first plug-in portion 32 can be inserted into or pulled out of the second plug-in portion 33 along the extension direction parallel to the light strip 1. Of course, it should be noted that the first plug-in portion 32 and the second plug-in portion 33 can also be other plug-in structures, as long as they can achieve electrical connection between the first plug-in portion 32 and the second plug-in portion 33. This disclosure does not limit this.
[0070] Reference Figure 4 As shown, in some other embodiments, the plurality of light strips 1 also include a third light strip 13 and a fourth light strip 14. The third light strip 13 and the first light strip 11 are located on the same side of the connector 20 and are arranged parallel to each other. One end of the third light strip 13 and one end of the first light strip 11 are connected by a second bend 16, which is perpendicular to the extension direction of the light strip 1.
[0071] The fourth light strip 14 and the second light strip 12 are located on the same side of the connector 20 and are arranged parallel to each other. One end of the fourth light strip 14 and one end of the second light strip 12 are connected by a third bend 17, which is perpendicular to the extension direction of the light strip 1.
[0072] A first insertion and engagement structure 30 is provided between the second bend 16 and the connector 20, and a second insertion and engagement structure 31 is provided between the third bend 17 and the connector 20. It is understood that the second bend 16 and the extension direction of the light strip 1 are offset, and the third bend 17 and the extension direction of the light strip 1 are also offset, so that neither the first insertion and engagement structure 30 nor the second insertion and engagement structure 31 is on the same straight line as the extension direction of the light strip 1.
[0073] With this configuration, the spacing between the two light strips 1 connected by the connector 20 along the extension direction of the light strip 1 is not limited by the size of the first insertion mating structure 30 and the second insertion mating structure 31 after insertion, avoiding occupying too much space between the light strips 1 connected by the connector 20 after insertion, thereby ensuring the light-emitting effect of the display device; at the same time, the size of the connector 20 located between the light strips 1 on both sides can also be specially set according to user needs, so as to ensure that when the density of the light-emitting elements 10 in the backlight module is increased, the connector 20 will not occupy too much space between the light strips 1 on both sides, thereby ensuring the light-emitting effect of the display device.
[0074] Furthermore, the second bend 16 and the third bend 17 are each provided with a first insertion part 32 on their sides, and the connector 20 is provided with a second insertion part 33. The first insertion part 32 and the second insertion part 33 on the second bend 16 are inserted and engaged along the extension direction parallel to the light strip 1, and together form a first insertion and engagement structure 30. The first insertion part 32 and the second insertion part 33 on the third bend 17 are inserted and engaged along the extension direction parallel to the light strip 1, and together form a second insertion and engagement structure 31.
[0075] Reference Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the second insertion portions 33 located on both sides of the connector 20 are arranged opposite each other. The structure of the connector 20 can be referred to Figure 8 As shown.
[0076] With this configuration, the arrangement of the second plug-in portions 33 on the connector 20 can be the same as or similar to the existing arrangement, thus requiring no modification or only slight modification to the connector 20. Furthermore, the pairwise arrangement of the second plug-in portions 33 on both sides of the connector 20 allows for a denser arrangement of multiple second plug-in portions 33 along the length of the connector 20, thereby reducing the spacing between the light strips 1 on the same side and making the arrangement of multiple light strips 1 on the same side denser, thus meeting the requirement of increasing the number of zones in the backlight module.
[0077] Reference Figure 5 As shown, in some other embodiments, the second insertion portions 33 located on both sides of the connector 20 are staggered, that is, the second insertion portions 33 are arranged along the length direction of the connector 20 (i.e., Figure 5 The vertical direction is staggered. The structure of connector 20 can be referred to... Figure 9 As shown.
[0078] This arrangement allows the second insertion portions 33 located on both sides of the connector 20 to extend along the width direction of the connector 20 (i.e., Figure 5 The left and right directions of the connector 20 can be overlapped, which can reduce the size of the connector 20 in the left and right directions, so that the connector 20 will not occupy too much space between the light strips 1 on both sides of the connector 20, thereby ensuring the display effect of the display device.
[0079] Reference Figure 6 The diagram shown is a schematic diagram of the cutting of a light strip according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The third light strip 13 and the first light strip 11 are connected by the second bending portion 16, and the fourth light strip 14 and the second light strip 12 are connected by the third bending portion 17. During cutting, the material can be fully utilized, waste can be reduced, and production costs can be lowered.
[0080] In specific implementation, the light-emitting element 10 is disposed near the edge end of the light strip 1 along the extension direction of the light strip 1, that is, near... Figure 6 The light-emitting element 10 at the end of the light strip 1 is positioned to reduce the distance between the light-emitting element 10 at the end of the light strip 1 and the connector 20. This arrangement reduces the distance between two adjacent light-emitting elements 10 on the two sides of the light strip 1 connected by the connector 20, and avoids excessive spacing between the light-emitting elements 10 due to the end of the light strip 1 occupying too much space between the light strips 1 on both sides of the connector 20.
[0081] Specifically, the first plug-in portion 32 can be one of a plug and a socket, and the second plug-in portion 33 can be the other of a plug and a socket. The first plug-in portion 32 can be inserted into or pulled out of the second plug-in portion 33 along the extension direction parallel to the light strip 1. Of course, it should be noted that the first plug-in portion 32 and the second plug-in portion 33 can also be other plug-in structures, as long as they can achieve electrical connection between the first plug-in portion 32 and the second plug-in portion 33. This disclosure does not limit this.
[0082] Reference Figure 7 As shown, in some other embodiments, both the first insertion mating structure 30 and the second insertion mating structure 31 include a first insertion portion 32 and a second insertion portion 33 that cooperate with each other.
[0083] The connector 20 has an extension 21 extending perpendicular to the side of the connector 20 on at least one side, and a second plug-in portion 33 is provided on the side of the extension 21. At least one of the first light strip 11 and the second light strip 12 has a first plug-in portion 32 on the side of one end of the light strip 1 along the extension direction of the light strip 1.
[0084] A first insertion and engagement structure 30 is provided between the first insertion portion 32 of the first light strip 11 and the connector 20, and a second insertion and engagement structure 31 is provided between the first insertion portion 32 of the second light strip 12 and the connector 20. At least one of the first insertion and engagement structure 30 and the second insertion and engagement structure 31 is not located on the same straight line as the extension direction of the light strip 1.
[0085] The structure of connector 20 is referenced. Figure 10 As shown, at least one side of the connector 20 is provided with an extension 21 extending along the side perpendicular to the side of the connector 20, and the side of the extension 21 is provided with a second plug-in portion 33 for plugging and connecting with the light strip 1.
[0086] In specific implementation, refer to Figure 7 and Figure 10 As shown, both sides of the connector 20 are provided with an extension portion 21 extending perpendicular to the side of the connector 20, and the second insertion portions 33 located on both sides of the connector 20 are arranged opposite each other.
[0087] Continue to refer to Figure 7 and Figure 10 As shown, the first insertion part 32 is provided on the side of one end of the lamp strip 1 located on both sides of the connector 20 along the extension direction of the lamp strip 1. The first insertion part 32 and the second insertion part 33 of the first lamp strip 11 are inserted and engaged along the extension direction perpendicular to the lamp strip 1 to form a first insertion and engagement structure 30. The first insertion part 32 and the second insertion part 33 of the second lamp strip 12 are inserted and engaged along the extension direction perpendicular to the lamp strip 1 to form a second insertion and engagement structure 31.
[0088] Specifically, the extensions 21 on both sides of the connector 20 are offset from the extension direction of the light strip 1, and the second plug-in portion 33 on the extension 21 can be plugged into and cooperate with the first plug-in portion 32 on the light strip 1 to realize the installation of the light strip 1.
[0089] Furthermore, the light-emitting element 10 is positioned near the edge end of the light strip 1 along its extension direction, and a position for the first insertion portion 32 is reserved there. At this time, the size of the connector 20 located between the light strips 1 on both sides is reduced according to user requirements, so as to ensure that when the density of the light-emitting element 10 is increased, the connector 20 will not occupy too much space between the light strips 1 on both sides of the connector 20, thereby further ensuring the display effect of the display device.
[0090] This configuration ensures that the spacing between the two light strips 1 connected by the connector 20 along the extension direction of the light strip 1 is not limited by the dimensions of the first insertion mating structure 30 and the second insertion mating structure 31 after insertion, thus avoiding occupying too much space between the two light strips 1 connected by the connector 20 after insertion, thereby ensuring the light emission effect of the display device. At the same time, the dimensions of the connector 20 located between the two light strips 1 can also be specially set according to user needs to ensure that when the density of the light-emitting elements 10 in the backlight module is increased, the connector 20 will not occupy too much space between the two light strips 1, thereby ensuring the display effect of the display device.
[0091] In specific implementation, refer to Figure 7 and Figure 10 As shown, the extension 21 is provided along the length direction of the connector 20 (i.e., Figure 10 The extension 21 is located on the left and right sides of the connector 20, and extends along the length direction perpendicular to the connector 20 (i.e., along the left and right sides). Figure 10 Extend settings in the left and right directions.
[0092] Continue to refer to Figure 7 and Figure 10 As shown, multiple extensions 21 located on the same side are along the length direction of the connector 20 (i.e., Figure 10 The light strips 1 are arranged sequentially at intervals in the vertical direction, and an insertion gap is formed between two adjacent extensions 21 for inserting the end of the light strip 1. The end of the light strip 1 with the reserved position of the first insertion part 32 can be inserted into the insertion gap to reduce the distance between the light strips 1 on the left and right sides of the connector 20 and ensure the display effect of the display device.
[0093] Specifically, the first plug-in portion 32 can be one of a plug and a socket, and the second plug-in portion 33 can be the other of a plug and a socket. The first plug-in portion 32 can be inserted into or pulled out of the second plug-in portion 33 along the extension direction parallel to the light strip 1. Of course, it should be noted that the first plug-in portion 32 and the second plug-in portion 33 can also be other plug-in structures, as long as they can achieve electrical connection between the first plug-in portion 32 and the second plug-in portion 33. This disclosure does not limit this.
[0094] Of course, in specific implementations, an extension 21 extending perpendicular to the side of the connector 20 can be provided only on one side of the connector 20. A second insertion portion 33 is provided on the side of the extension 21, and a first insertion portion 32 is provided on the side of the light strip 1 extending in the same direction. The first insertion portion 32 of the light strip 1 on the other side is provided at one end of the light strip 1 extending in the same direction. This arrangement still reduces the gap between the light strips 1 on both sides of the connector 20.
[0095] It is understood that in the above embodiment, the second insertion portions 33 on both sides of the connector 20 are staggered.
[0096] In some other embodiments, a display device is provided, including a display panel and a backlight module, wherein the display panel is configured to display an image.
[0097] In a specific implementation, the backlight module is set on the non-display surface of the display panel. The backlight module includes a connector 20 and multiple light strips 1. Multiple light-emitting elements 10 are arranged sequentially on the light strips 1 along a first direction, wherein the first direction is the extension direction of the light strips 1.
[0098] The plurality of light strips 1 includes at least three parallel light strips 1. One end of each light strip 1 along its extension direction is connected by a connecting portion 18, which is perpendicular to the extension direction of the light strips 1. The connecting portion 18 is provided with at least one first insertion portion 32, which is offset from the extension direction of the plurality of light strips 1. That is, the first insertion portion 32 is not on the same straight line as the extension direction of the plurality of light strips 1.
[0099] In some embodiments, a plurality of light strips 1 connected by the connecting portion 18 are disposed on at least one side of the connector 20, such that the spacing between the light strips 1 on both sides connected by the connector 20 along the extension direction of the light strips 1 is not limited by the size after insertion, which can reduce the spacing width between the plurality of light strips 1 on at least one side and the connector 20, and avoid occupying too much space between the light strips 1 connected on both sides of the connector 20 after insertion, thereby ensuring the light emission effect of the display device.
[0100] Reference Figure 11 As shown, multiple light strips 1 are distributed on both sides of the connector 20, and the multiple light strips 1 on both sides are connected by a connecting part 18. The connecting part 18 is provided with at least one first plug-in part 32, and the two sides of the connector 20 are respectively provided with second plug-in parts 33 corresponding to the first plug-in parts 32. The first plug-in parts 32 and the second plug-in parts 33 are plugged into each other.
[0101] In other words, the second insertion portions 33 on both sides of the connector 20 are not aligned with the extension direction of the multiple light strips 1. With this configuration, after the second insertion portions 33 on both sides of the connector 20 are inserted into the first insertion portion 32, they will not occupy too much space between the light strips 1 connected on both sides of the connector 20, thereby ensuring the luminous effect of the display device.
[0102] In a specific embodiment, the second plug-in portions 33 located on both sides of the connector 20 can also be arranged relative to or staggered according to actual usage requirements, as long as the extension direction of the light strips 1 located on both sides of the connector 20 can be on the same straight line and the multiple light-emitting elements 10 are evenly spaced, thereby ensuring that the multiple zones of the backlight module have a uniform brightness light-emitting effect.
[0103] It should be noted that the number of first insertion portions 32 can be set according to actual needs, which can reduce the proportion of the second insertion portions 33 in the length direction of the connector 20 (i.e., Figure 11 The density of the light strips (in the vertical direction) reduces the number of insertion steps, making the installation of the light strip 1 more convenient.
[0104] It should be noted that the installation method between the light strip 1 and the connector 20 in the display device provided in this disclosure is not limited to the above-mentioned installation method. As long as the position of the connecting part can be reasonably set and the shape of the light strip 1 or the connector 20 can be adjusted accordingly so that the spacing between the light strips 1 on both sides of the connector 20 can be reduced and the density requirements of the light-emitting element 10 can be met, as long as it does not depart from the inventive concept of this disclosure, it should be within the protection scope of this disclosure.
[0105] In practice, the backlight module is located on the back of the display panel. The display device can adjust the light-emitting element 10 in the backlight module according to the image on the display panel. In areas with high brightness, the backlight brightness can be increased, and in areas with low brightness, the backlight brightness can be reduced, making the bright parts brighter and the dark parts more layered. At the same time, when the light-emitting element 10 in the black area is turned off, the problem of light leakage when displaying a black image can be avoided, the contrast between bright and dark parts can be improved, the image effect can be enhanced, the sense of layering of the image can be enriched, and the color transition can be more natural.
