In one embodiment, the first node Qn is also self-charged and pulled up by the first capacitor C1, so that the level of the first node Qn is further increased, and the second switch element M2 is fully turned on.
[0055] In one embodiment, the first node Qn has been pulled up to a high level, and the third switch element M3 is in a conductive state; the first clock signal CLK2 of this stage jumps from a low level to a high level; the second output end receives the high-level first clock signal CLK2 of this stage through the conductive third switch element M3, and thus, the second output end outputs a high-level transfer signal Zn of this stage.
[0056] In one embodiment, the post-stage gate signal Gn+2 jumps from a low level to a high level, the fourth control end of the fourth switch element M4 receives the high-level post-stage gate signal Gn+2, the fourth switch element M4 becomes turned on, and the first output end receives the first low-level signal VGL through the turned-on fourth switch element M4, and is quickly pulled down to a low level, which can effectively reduce the falling edge time of the gate signal without increasing the clock load, thereby improving the product image quality.
[0057] Pull-down phase: Please refer to Figure 4 In the box, when the back-stage gate signal Gn+2 jumps from a low level to a high level, the node pull-down module 50 controls the first node Qn to receive the second clock signal CLK3 of this stage. Then, when the second clock signal CLK3 of this stage jumps from a high level to a low level, the first node Qn is stably pulled down to a low level.
[0058] In one embodiment, when the post-stage gate signal Gn+2 changes from a low level to a high level, the fifth control terminal of the fifth switch element M5 receives the high-level post-stage gate signal Gn+2, and the fifth switch element M5 becomes conductive. Thus, the first node Qn connected to the ninth channel terminal of the fifth switch element M5 receives the second clock signal CLK3 of the current stage on the tenth channel terminal of the fifth switch element M5 through the conductive fifth switch element M5. When the second clock signal CLK3 of the current stage changes from a high level to a low level, the first node Qn is stably pulled down to a low level.
[0059] In one embodiment, when the first node Qn is pulled down to a low level, the second control end of the second switch element M2 and the third control end of the third switch element M3 connected to the first node Qn become low levels, and the second switch element M2 and the third switch element M3 become disconnected, thereby causing the first output module 20 and the second output module 30 to enter a non-working state.
[0060] In one embodiment, when the first node Qn is pulled down to a low level, the tenth control terminal of the tenth switch element M10 and the eleventh control terminal of the eleventh switch element M11 connected to the first node Qn become low levels, and the tenth switch element M10 and the eleventh switch element M11 become disconnected. At the same time, because the first control signal V1 and the second control signal V2 have opposite polarities, the first control signal V1 controls the sixth switch element M6 and the seventh switch element M7 to be turned on, and the second node QB1 is charged through the turned-on sixth switch element M6, and the third node QB2 is discharged to the second low level signal VSQ through the turned-on seventh switch element M7, or the second control signal V2 controls the eighth switch element M8 and the ninth switch element M9 to be turned on, and the third node QB2 is charged through the turned-on eighth switch element M8, and the second node QB1 is discharged to the second low level signal VSQ through the turned-on ninth switch element M9. Thus, the first control signal V1 and the second control signal V2 alternately control the second node QB1 and the third node QB2 to be high and low levels, so that the twelfth switch element M12, the fourteenth switch element M14, the sixteenth switch element M16 connected to the second node QB1 and the thirteenth switch element M13, the fifteenth switch element M15, the seventeenth switch element M17 connected to the third node QB2 are alternately turned on. Thus, the first node Qn alternately receives the second low level signal VSQ through the connected twelfth switch element M12 and the thirteenth switch element M13, the first output terminal alternately receives the first low level signal VGL through the connected fourteenth switch element M14 and the fifteenth switch element M15, and the second output terminal alternately receives the first level signal VGL through the connected sixteenth switch element M16 and the seventeenth switch element M17, so as to achieve a stable low level effect.
[0061] Stabilization phase: Please refer to Figure 5 In the box, that is, in the time period not including the first three stages, the front-stage transfer signal Zn-2 received by the pre-charging module 10 is at a low level, then the pre-charging module 10 enters a non-working state, and similarly, the rear-stage gate signal Gn+2 received by the node pull-down module 50 is at a low level, then the node pull-down module 50 enters a non-working state. Thus, the pre-charging module 10 and the node pull-down module 50 have no effect on the first node Qn, and the stabilizing module 60 can be used to maintain the first node Qn, the first output terminal, and the second output terminal at a low level.
[0062] In one embodiment, in the stable stage, the first node Qn has been pulled down to a low level, the second control end of the second switch element M2 and the third control end of the third switch element M3 connected to the first node Qn are at a low level, and the second switch element M2 and the third switch element M3 are in a disconnected state, thereby causing the first output module 20 and the second output module 30 to enter a non-working state.
[0063] In one embodiment, in the stable stage, the first node Qn has been pulled down to a low level, the tenth control terminal of the tenth switch element M10 and the eleventh control terminal of the eleventh switch element M11 connected to the first node Qn are at a low level, and the tenth switch element M10 and the eleventh switch element M11 are in a disconnected state. At the same time, because the first control signal V1 and the second control signal V2 have opposite polarities, the first control signal V1 controls the sixth switch element M6 and the seventh switch element M7 to be in a conducting state, and charges the second node QB1 through the conducting sixth switch element M6, and discharges the third node QB2 to the second low level signal VSQ through the conducting seventh switch element M7, or the second control signal V2 controls the eighth switch element M8 and the ninth switch element M9 to be in a conducting state, and charges the third node QB2 through the conducting eighth switch element M8, and discharges the second node QB1 to the second low level signal VSQ through the conducting ninth switch element M9. Thus, the first control signal V1 and the second control signal V2 alternately control the second node QB1 and the third node QB2 to be high and low levels, so that the twelfth switch element M12, the fourteenth switch element M14, the sixteenth switch element M16 connected to the second node QB1 and the thirteenth switch element M13, the fifteenth switch element M15, and the seventeenth switch element M17 connected to the third node QB2 are alternately turned on. Thus, the first node Qn alternately receives the second low level signal VSQ through the connected twelfth switch element M12 and the thirteenth switch element M13, the first output terminal alternately receives the first low level signal VGL through the connected fourteenth switch element M14 and the fifteenth switch element M15, and the second output terminal alternately receives the first level signal VGL through the connected sixteenth switch element M16 and the seventeenth switch element M17, so as to achieve a stable low level effect.
[0064] Thus, in the stable stage, no matter how the pre-stage transfer signal Zn-2 and the pre-stage gate signal Gn-2 received by the pre-charging module 10 change, how the post-stage gate signal Gn+2 and the second clock signal CLK3 of the current stage received by the node pull-down module 50 change, and how the first clock signal CLK2 of the current stage received by the first output module 20 and the second output module 30 change, the stabilizing module 60 can maintain the first node Qn, the first output end and the second output end at a low level, and can release the charge of the parasitic capacitance of the second switch element M2 coupled by the clock feedthrough, etc., to ensure the stability of the first node Qn and the output current gate signal Gn and the current transfer signal. In addition, in the pre-charging stage, each voltage pull-up on the first node Qn is performed on the second low-level signal VSQ, so the pull-up voltage is relatively stable, preventing the voltage drift of the first node Qn, making the voltage of the first node Qn more stable, thereby increasing the stability of the circuit and improving the reliability of the display. In one embodiment, the voltages of the second node QB1 and the third node QB2 are more stable, so that the working state of the connected switching elements is also more stable, reducing the influence of the ambient temperature on the circuit, that is, due to the original drift phenomenon, the voltage drift will not exceed a certain threshold when the temperature is too high or too low, causing the connected switching elements to work abnormally; in addition, the voltages of the second node QB1 and the third node QB2 are more stable, which will also broaden the relevant timing design of the second node QB1 and the third node QB2.

The number of gate transfer units in the gate transfer circuit is not limited, and can be 4, 8 or more, such as the number of gate lines. Figure 6In the example, each gate transfer unit receives the previous gate signal Gn-2, the previous transfer signal Zn-2 and the next gate signal Gn+2, and outputs the current gate signal Gn and the current transfer signal Zn, wherein the previous gate signal Gn-2 and the previous transfer signal Zn-2 received by the first two gate transfer units may be the corresponding start-up signal STV1, and the next gate signal Gn+2 received by the last two gate transfer units may be the corresponding pull-down signal STV2. Each gate transfer unit may also share multiple input signals, including a first low-level signal VGL, a second low-level signal VQS, two control signals and a group of clock signals. In one embodiment, when receiving the two control signals, the first control signal V1 received by any gate transfer unit is the second control signal V2 received by the adjacent gate transfer unit. In one embodiment, the group of clock signals is N phase difference clocks, and the phase difference between two adjacent phase difference clocks is one-Nth of a cycle, and N may be 4 or 8, etc. In one embodiment, when receiving the group of clock signals, the phase difference between the first clock signal of the current level received by any gate transfer unit and the first clock signal of the current level received by an adjacent gate transfer unit is one-Nth cycle, and the phase difference between the second clock signal of the current level received by any gate transfer unit and the second clock signal of the current level received by an adjacent gate transfer unit is one-Nth cycle.
[0066] In one embodiment of the present invention, a gate transfer circuit is disposed on one of the left and right sides of the display panel, and a plurality of gate transfer units of the gate transfer circuit are connected to the gate lines in a one-to-one correspondence.
[0067] In one embodiment of the present invention, gate transfer circuits are disposed on both the left and right sides of the display panel, and a plurality of gate lines alternately connect the gate transfer units on the left and the gate transfer units on the right.
[0068] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 6 As shown, gate transfer circuits are provided on both sides of the display panel, and gate transfer units are provided at both ends of any gate line. One of the two gate transfer units at both ends of the gate line outputs a gate signal to perform non-double-end charging; or, the two gate transfer units at both ends of the gate line simultaneously output gate signals to perform double-end charging.
[0069] Figure 7: is a full-level circuit diagram of a gate transfer circuit of an embodiment of the present invention. The gate transfer circuit of this embodiment also includes a signal providing module 200, which is used to provide corresponding input signals for multiple gate transfer units. The signal providing module 200 can be composed of a multi-level substrate gate drive circuit and a signal line. In one embodiment, the signal providing module 200 is arranged in the middle of the multiple gate transfer units, so that the multiple gate transfer units can be connected upward and downward respectively, and / or the multiple gate transfer units can be connected to the left and right respectively. Figure 7 Taking the gate transfer circuit shown in FIG. 2 as an example, the upper left side, lower left side, upper right side and lower right side of the signal providing module 200 may be provided with eight gate transfer units, and the eight gate transfer units on each of the four sides realize eight-level output connection. Then, the signal providing module 200 may connect the gate transfer units on each side and provide input signals for each side. Figure 8 In the example, each gate transfer unit receives a previous gate signal Gn-2, a previous transfer signal Zn-2 and a subsequent gate signal Gn+2, and outputs a current gate signal Gn and a current transfer signal Zn, wherein the previous gate signal Gn-2 and the previous transfer signal Zn-2 received by the first two gate transfer units on each side may be the corresponding start-up signal STV1 provided by the signal providing module 200 or other external signal circuits, and the subsequent gate signal Gn+2 received by the last two gate transfer units may be the corresponding pull-down signal STV2 provided by the signal providing module 200 or other external signal circuits. Each gate transfer unit may also share multiple input signals, including a first low-level signal VGL, a second low-level signal VQS, two control signals and a group of clock signals. In one embodiment, when receiving the two control signals, the first control signal V1 received by any gate transfer unit is the second control signal V2 received by the adjacent gate transfer unit. In one embodiment, the group of clock signals is N phase difference clocks, and the phase difference between two adjacent phase difference clocks is one-Nth of a cycle, and N may be 4 or 8, etc.; Figure 8 For example, the group of clock signals is four phase difference clocks, and the phase difference between two adjacent phase difference clocks is one quarter of a cycle, the phase difference between the first clock signal CLK2 of the same level received by any gate transfer unit and the first clock signal CLK2 of the same level received by the adjacent gate transfer unit is one quarter of a cycle, and the phase difference between the second clock signal CLK3 of the same level received by any gate transfer unit and the second clock signal CLK3 of the same level received by the adjacent gate transfer unit is one quarter of a cycle. Fig. 9As shown, multiple gate transfer units of the gate transfer circuit can output the gate signal of this stage in sequence. For example, four consecutive gate transfer units can output the gate signals of this stage Gn-2, Gn-1, Gn and Gn+1 in sequence, and the falling edge time of each gate signal of this stage is short, that is, it is quickly pulled down to a low level.
[0070] Fig.10 yes Figure 1 A schematic diagram comparing gate signals when the gate transfer unit is a 17T1C structure and a gate transfer unit is a 16T1C structure. The gate transfer unit of the gate transfer circuit of an embodiment of the present invention is provided with an output pull-down module 40, such as Figure 1 The structure shown is 17T1C, i.e., 17 switch elements and 1 capacitor. In contrast, a gate transfer unit does not have an output pull-down module 40, but is 16T1C, i.e., 16 switch elements and 1 capacitor. Fig.10 It can be seen that the falling edge time of the gate signal of the gate transfer unit with a 17T1C structure in the embodiment of the present invention is less than that of the gate transfer unit with a 16T1C structure. According to measurement, the falling edge time of the gate signal of the gate transfer unit with a 17T1C structure in the embodiment of the present invention is 5.3 μs, and the falling edge time of the gate signal of the gate transfer unit with a 16T1C structure is 7.7 μs. Therefore, the embodiment of the present invention can reduce the falling edge time of the gate signal without increasing the clock load, thereby improving the image quality of the product.
[0071] Fig.11 It is a schematic structural diagram of a gate transfer circuit according to another embodiment of the present invention. Fig.12 yes Fig.11 A circuit connection diagram of a gate transfer unit 100 is shown in FIG. Fig.11 and Fig.12 The basic structure and principle of the gate transfer circuit of this embodiment and the technical effects produced are basically the same as those of the previous embodiment. For the sake of brief description, the parts not mentioned in this embodiment can refer to the corresponding contents of the previous embodiment. In this embodiment, the difference is that the output pull-down module 40 is arranged at the tail end of the gate line and is connected to the first output terminal through the gate line.
[0072] Specifically, a gate transfer unit 100 is arranged on one side of the display panel, for example, the left side, and the first output end of the gate transfer unit 100 is connected to the left end of a gate line, and the gate line is connected to multiple thin film transistors on the display panel, which will generate corresponding resistance RGate and capacitance Cgate. An output pull-down module 40 is arranged on the other side of the display panel, for example, the right side, and the output pull-down module 40 is connected to the tail end Gn_end of the gate line, and is connected to the first output end through the gate line. Among them, in the output stage of the gate transfer unit 100, the first output terminal outputs a high-level gate signal Gn of the current stage, and then the subsequent gate signal Gn+2 jumps from a low level to a high level, and the fourth control terminal of the fourth switch element M4 in the output pull-down module 40 receives the high-level subsequent gate signal Gn+2, and the fourth switch element M4 becomes a conductive state. The first output terminal receives the first low-level signal VGL through the gate line and the conductive fourth switch element M4, and is quickly pulled down to a low level. The falling edge time of the gate signal can be effectively reduced without increasing the clock load, thereby improving the product image quality. At the same time, the space occupied by the gate transfer unit 100 on one side of the display panel can be reduced, which can effectively save the layout area and facilitate the narrow frame of the display device.
[0073] In one embodiment of the present invention, a gate transfer circuit is provided on one side of the display panel, and a plurality of gate transfer units 100 of the gate transfer circuit are connected one-to-one with the gate lines. A plurality of output pull-down modules 40 are provided on the other side of the display panel, and the output pull-down modules 40 are provided at the end of the gate line and connected to the first output terminal through the gate line.
[0074] In one embodiment of the present invention, Fig.11 As shown, gate transfer circuits are arranged on both sides of the display panel, and the output pull-down module 40 in the gate transfer unit 100 is arranged on the other side. Among the two adjacent gate lines, the left side of the first gate line is connected to the gate transfer unit 100 and the right side is connected to the output pull-down module 40, and the left side of the second gate line is connected to the output pull-down module 40 and the right side is connected to the gate transfer unit 100.
[0075] Fig.13 and Fig.14 They are Fig.11Clock signal diagram and gate signal diagram in one embodiment. In one embodiment, gate transfer circuits are arranged on both sides of the display panel, and the output pull-down module 40 in the gate transfer unit 100 is arranged on the other side. For example, the first-stage gate transfer unit 100 is arranged on the left side of the display panel, and the corresponding output pull-down module 40 is arranged on the right side of the display panel, the second-stage gate transfer unit 100 is arranged on the right side of the display panel, and the corresponding output pull-down module 40 is arranged on the left side of the display panel, ..., and are arranged in sequence. Each gate transfer unit receives the previous gate signal Gn-4, the previous transfer signal Zn-4 and the next gate signal Gn+4, and outputs the current gate signal Gn and the current transfer signal Zn, wherein the previous gate signal Gn-4 and the previous transfer signal Zn-4 received by the first two gate transfer units on each side can be the corresponding start signal STV1, and the next gate signal Gn+4 received by the last two gate transfer units can be the corresponding pull-down signal STV2. Each gate transfer unit may also share multiple input signals, including a first low-level signal VGL, a second low-level signal VQS, two control signals and a group of clock signals. In one embodiment, when receiving the two control signals, the first control signal V1 received by any gate transfer unit is the second control signal V2 received by the adjacent gate transfer unit. In one embodiment, the group of clock signals is N phase difference clocks, and the phase difference between two adjacent phase difference clocks is one-Nth of a cycle, and N can be 4 or 8, etc.; Fig.13 For example, the group of clock signals is eight phase difference clocks, and the phase difference between two adjacent phase difference clocks is one eighth of a cycle. The first phase difference clock CLK1, the third phase difference clock CLK3, the fifth phase difference clock CLK5 and the seventh phase difference clock CLK7 can be set on the left side of the display panel, and the second phase difference clock CLK2, the fourth phase difference clock CLK4, the sixth phase difference clock CLK6 and the eighth phase difference clock CLK8 can be set on the right side of the display panel; the phase difference between the first clock signal CLK2 of the same level received by any gate transfer unit and the first clock signal CLK2 of the same level received by the adjacent gate transfer unit is one eighth of a cycle, and the phase difference between the second clock signal CLK4 of the same level received by any gate transfer unit and the second clock signal CLK4 of the same level received by the adjacent gate transfer unit is one eighth of a cycle. Fig.14 As shown, multiple gate transfer units of the gate transfer circuit can output the gate signals of this stage in sequence. For example, 8 consecutive gate transfer units can output the gate signals of this stage Gn-4, Gn-3, Gn-2, Gn-1, Gn, Gn+1, Gn+2 and Gn+3 in sequence, and the falling edge time of each gate signal of this stage is short, that is, it is quickly pulled down to a low level.
[0076] Based on the same inventive concept, an embodiment of the present invention further provides a display device, which includes a gate transfer circuit as provided in the above embodiment, for providing a gate signal to a gate line of a display panel. The implementation of the display device can refer to the above embodiment of the gate transfer circuit, and the repeated parts will not be repeated.

Thus, the gate transfer circuit can output multiple gate signals in sequence, has a strong output capacity and stability, and can reduce the falling edge time of the gate signal without increasing the clock load, thereby improving the product image quality; at the same time, the gate transfer circuit uses fewer unit devices, which can effectively save the layout area and facilitate the narrow frame of the display device.
