Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to a display device and a manufacturing method thereof, and in particular, to a stretchable and bendable display device and a manufacturing method thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the development of electronic products, the importance of display devices is increasing. In order to expand the application level of display devices, flexible display devices have gradually become one of the development focuses of manufacturers. However, the circuit board of the current flexible display device is electrically connected between the layers of the circuit by a "via hole". The via hole is plated with copper or filled with copper paste, so that the copper in the via hole is easily broken when the flexible display device is bent, which affects the reliability of the flexible display device. In addition, in order to avoid the breakage of the copper in the via hole, the bending part of the flexible display device must avoid the via hole, which reduces the bending freedom of the flexible display device. SUMMARY

The flexible circuit substrate includes two circuit layers, two support layers and a stretchable and bendable component. The support layers are located between the two circuit layers and are opposite to each other, wherein each of the support layers has a bending portion which protrudes away from each other to form a receiving space between the two support layers. The stretchable and bendable component is located in the receiving space and includes two positioning members, a shaft member, two elastic members and an elastic component.

When the display device in the initial state is stretched to a stretched state, the positioning members move relative to the shaft member and compress the two elastic members. When the display device in the stretched state returns to the initial state, the two elastic members are stretched and drive the positioning members to reset.

[0056] In the following detailed description, for the purposes of clarity and illustration, the dimensions (e.g., length, width, thickness, and / or depth) of the elements (e.g., layers, films, substrates, and regions) of the drawings are not to scale as necessary, and numbers of elements may
[0057] Reference will now be made to FIG. 1, which shows a cross-sectional view of a display device 100 according to some embodiments of the present application. In some embodiments of the present application, the display device 100 includes a flexible circuit substrate 110 and a plurality of light emitting components 120 fixed to and electrically connected to the flexible circuit substrate 110. Figure 1 Figure 1 In detail, the flexible circuit substrate 110 includes two circuit layers 111, two support layers 112, and a stretchable and bendable component 113. The circuit layers 111 provide the function of electrical connection, and current can be input to the light emitting components 120 through the circuit layers 111. The support layers 112 can carry the light emitting components 120 and have a certain elasticity so that the display device 100 can be stretched or bent. The stretchable and bendable component 113 can drive other elements to return to their original positions after the display device 100 is stretched or bent. The detailed operation mode will be described in subsequent paragraphs, and will not be described here.
[0058] In detail, the flexible circuit substrate 110 includes two circuit layers 111, two support layers 112, and a stretchable and bendable component 113. The circuit layers 111 provide the function of electrical connection, and current can be input to the light emitting components 120 through the circuit layers 111. The support layers 112 can carry the light emitting components 120 and have a certain elasticity so that the display device 100 can be stretched or bent. The stretchable and bendable component 113 can drive other elements to return to their original positions after the display device 100 is stretched or bent. The detailed operation mode will be described in subsequent paragraphs, and will not be described here.
[0059] The support layers 112 are located between the two circuit layers 111 and face each other, wherein each of the support layers 112 has a curved portion 112a which protrudes towards a direction away from each other to form a receiving space (not shown) between the two support layers 112, and the stretchable and bendable assembly 113 is located in the receiving space. The material of the support layers 112 can be polyimide (PI) or polyethylene terephthalate (PET) so as to form the curved portion 112a, and the receiving space between the support layers 112 can also reserve a certain distance (i.e. the horizontal length of the receiving space) for the display device 100 to stretch or bend in addition to accommodating the stretchable and bendable assembly 113.
[0060] In some embodiments, each of the support layers 112 has at least two flat portions 112b, and the flat portions 112b are respectively located on both sides of the curved portion 112a, wherein the curved portion 112a is located between two adjacent light emitting assemblies 120, and the circuit layer 111 is arranged on the flat portion 112b, which is helpful for assembling the light emitting assembly 120. In addition, the circuit layer 111 is limited to be arranged on the flat portion 112b and is not arranged on any curved portion 112a, so as to avoid affecting the bending of the display device 100, thereby improving the smoothness when bending the display device 100.
[0061] The stretchable and bendable assembly 113 includes two positioning members 114, a shaft member 115, two elastic elements 118 and an elastic assembly 119. The positioning members 114 are fixed between the two support layers 112, wherein the curved portion 112a is located between the two positioning members 114. The shaft member 115 includes a penetrating portion 116 and two abutting blocks 117, the penetrating portion 116 penetrates the two positioning members 114, and the abutting blocks 117 are connected to both ends of the penetrating portion 116 and are clamped between the two support layers 112, wherein the two positioning members 114 are located between the two abutting blocks 117. The positioning members 114 can move relative to the shaft member 115, and the abutting blocks 117 of the shaft member 115 can limit the movement range of the positioning members 114 to avoid separation of the shaft member 115 and the positioning members 114. In addition, the shaft member 115 can be made of a high modulus material, so that the shaft member 115 can have sufficient rigidity and can be bent; the high modulus material can form the shaft member 115 by chemical etching or laser etching, for example, the high modulus material can be a PI material or a glass fiber cloth material, and the elastic modulus of the high modulus material can be greater than 20 MPa.
[0062] The elastic elements 118 abut against the two positioning members 114 and the two abutting blocks 117, respectively, and each of the elastic elements 118 is located between one abutting block 117 and one positioning member 114 adjacent to each other. In this way, the elastic elements 118 can provide a restoring force after the shaft member 115 moves relative to the positioning member 114.
[0063] The elastic assembly 119 is fixed to the shaft member 115 and located between the curved portions 112a of the two support layers 112. The elastic assembly 119 is used to help the display device 100 to return to its original state after being stretched. In some embodiments, the elastic assembly 119 further includes a fixing seat 119a and an elastic body 119b. The fixing seat 119a is fixed to the through portion 116, and the elastic body 119b is fixed to the fixing seat 119a and abuts against the curved portions 112a of the two support layers 112. The aforementioned elastic elements 118 and the elastic body 119b can be made of a gel, a spring, or other materials that can be compressed and then rebound. The gel can be rubber and can have elasticity. The rubber can be styrene-based rubber, olefin-based rubber, diene-based rubber, vinyl chloride-based rubber, urethane-based rubber, ester-based rubber, amide-based rubber, organic fluorine-based rubber, silicone-based rubber, or ethylene-based rubber, such as styrene-butadiene-styrene block copolymer (SBS), styrene-isoprene-styrene block copolymer (SIS), styrene-ethylene / butylene-styrene block copolymer (SEBS), styrene-ethylene / propylene-styrene block copolymer (SEPS), thermoplastic polyolefin rubber (TPO), thermoplastic vulcanized rubber (TPV), trans-polybutadiene (TPB), trans-polyisoprene (TPI), thermoplastic polyvinyl chloride (TPVC), thermoplastic chlorinated polyethylene (TCPE), thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), thermoplastic polyester elastomer (TPEE), thermoplastic polyamide elastomer (TPAE), or thermoplastic fluororubber (TPF), etc.
[0064] In addition, the two support layers 112 can have a filling layer 130 therebetween. The filling layer 130 can fill the space between the two support layers 112 where the stretchable and bendable assembly 113 is not provided, so as to ensure that the appropriate distance is maintained between the support layers 112.
[0065] The light emitting assembly 120 is disposed between the two support layers 112. Each of the light emitting assembly 120 includes a circuit substrate 121 and at least one light emitting element 122. The light emitting element 122 can be a mini light emitting diode (Mini-LED), a micro light emitting diode (Micro-LED), or other small-sized light emitting diode. In addition, the light emitting element 122 can be a packaged wafer or a bare die.
[0066] The circuit substrate 121 is electrically connected to one of the circuit layers 111. The light emitting element 122 is electrically connected to the circuit substrate 121 and is located on the side of the circuit substrate 121 away from the circuit layer 111. In this way, the light emitting element 122 is located on the opposite sides of the display device 100, so that the display device 100 can achieve the effect of double-sided display and further increase the display area of the display device 100. In addition, the two circuit layers 111 can be electrically independent, so as to independently drive the light emitting elements 122 on the two sides to produce different display modes, thereby increasing the application field of the display device 100.
[0067] In some embodiments, the circuit substrate 121 has a first side 121a and a second side 121b opposite the first side 121a, the circuit substrate 121 includes a conductive layer 123 extending from the first side 121a to the second side 121b, and the circuit substrate 121 is electrically connected to the circuit layer 111 and the light emitting element 122 through the conductive layer 123, wherein the conductive layer 123 can be electrically connected to the light emitting element 122 by conductive glue.
[0068] In some embodiments, each of the light emitting assemblies 120 further includes a circuit element 124 embedded in the circuit substrate 121, and the circuit element 124 is electrically connected to the circuit layer 111 and the light emitting element 122, wherein the circuit element 124 can be an integrated circuit (IC). The circuit element 124 can be electrically connected to the conductive layer 123 by conductive glue or tin, so that the current signal of the circuit element 124 can be transmitted to the light emitting element 122, thereby achieving control of the light emitting element 122. In addition, by embedding the circuit element 124, the overall size of the display device 100 can be reduced, thereby improving the assembly freedom of the display device 100.
[0069] The circuit layer 111 and the conductive layer 123 can have a gold layer 123a between them and other elements. Part of the conductive layer 123 is not electrically connected to the light emitting element 122 and the circuit element 124, and the circuit substrate 121 can further have a protective layer 123b covering the part of the conductive layer 123, and the protective layer 123b and the part of the conductive layer 123 are fixed by a glue layer to achieve the effects of protection and insulation.
[0070] In some embodiments, the display devices 100 can be repeatedly arranged and connected to each other to form a complete display device, and each adjacent light-emitting component 120 can be provided with a bending portion 112a and a telescopic bending component 113. Therefore, the display device can have multiple bending portions 112a and telescopic bending components 113, so that the light-emitting components 120 can be bent or stretched arbitrarily, thereby improving the degree of freedom of operation.
[0071] It must be noted that, through the above structural design, the display device 100 of this application has a hole-free structure, that is, the display device 100 may not contain any conductive through holes or conductive blind holes, thus improving product reliability, saving manufacturing costs, and increasing the degree of freedom in application and in stretching and bending.
[0072] The following will describe in detail the operation of the display device 100 when it is bent or stretched.
[0073] When the display device 100 is neither bent nor stretched, it is in its initial state. When the display device 100 in its initial state is bent into a bent state, the elastic component 119 is compressed by the two support layers 112 and contracts, and the shaft 115 also bends as a result. When the display device 100 in the bent state returns to its initial state, the elastic component 119 extends and pushes the bent portion 112a, causing the bent portion 112a to return to its original shape, indirectly causing the display device 100 to return to a straight position.
[0074] When the display device 100 in the initial state is stretched to the stretched state, the positioning member 114 moves relative to the shaft member 115 and compresses the two elastic elements 118, and the elastic component 119 is also compressed due to the stretching of the bent portion 112a. When the display device 100 in the stretched state returns to the initial state, the two elastic elements 118 extend and drive the positioning member 114 to reset, so that the bent portion 112a returns to its original shape, indirectly causing the light-emitting component 120 to return to its original arrangement density.

Two elastic elements 118 are then respectively disposed between the two abutments 117 and the two first positioning components 114a. The abutments 117 of the shaft assembly 150 and the elastic elements 118 can be disposed in the receiving portions 112c of the two support layers 112 to fix the positions of the shaft assembly 150 and the elastic elements 118.

The two support layers 112 are located between the two circuit layers 111, and the through portion 116 is located between the two first positioning members 114a and the two second positioning members 114b. Furthermore, each of the elastic elements 118 is located between an adjacent first positioning member 114a and a stop block 117, and between an adjacent second positioning member 114b and the aforementioned stop block 117.
