[0043] In order to better understand the technical solution of the present invention, the embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0044] It should be clear that the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0045] The terms used in the embodiments of the present invention are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments, and are not intended to limit the present invention. The singular forms "a", "said" and "the" used in the embodiments of the present invention and the appended claims are also intended to include plural forms, unless the context clearly indicates other meanings.

[0046] It should be understood that the term "and / or" used in this article is only a description of the association relationship of associated objects, indicating that there can be three relationships. For example, A and / or B can represent: A exists alone, A and B exist at the same time, and B exists alone. In addition, the character " / " in this article generally indicates that the associated objects before and after are in an "or" relationship.

[0047] It should be understood that, although the term first, second etc. may be adopted to describe the functional component area in the embodiment of the present invention, these functional component areas should not be limited to these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish each functional component area from each other. For example, without departing from the scope of the embodiment of the present invention, the first functional component area may also be referred to as the second functional component area, and similarly, the second functional component area may also be referred to as the first functional component area.

[0048] An embodiment of the present invention provides a display panel, such as Figure 1 As shown, Figure 1A schematic diagram of a display panel provided in an embodiment of the present invention, the display panel includes a display area AA and at least two functional component areas DA, the display area AA at least partially surrounds the functional component area DA, and along the first direction h1, the at least two functional component areas DA at least partially overlap. In an embodiment of the present invention, the light transmittance of the functional component area DA is greater than the optical transmittance of the display area AA. The display area AA includes a plurality of sub-pixels P. Exemplarily, the functional component area DA does not include the sub-pixel P.

[0049] In the embodiment of the present invention, the functional component area DA may be arranged in various forms, for example, the functional component area DA includes a through hole or a blind hole. The through hole penetrates the display panel in the thickness direction of the display panel, and can be obtained by cutting the display panel. The blind hole does not penetrate the display panel in the thickness direction of the display panel, and the sub-pixel can be arranged away from the functional component area DA to obtain a functional component area DA with a larger light transmittance.

[0050] Exemplarily, the shapes of the at least two functional component areas DA may be the same, or different. Exemplarily, in the embodiment of the present invention, the areas of the at least two functional component areas DA may be the same, or different.

[0051] like Figure 1 As shown, the display area AA includes a plurality of first signal lines 1, at least part of which extends along a first direction h1; the plurality of first signal lines 1 are arranged along a second direction h2, and the second direction h2 intersects the first direction h1. The first signal lines 1 are electrically connected to a plurality of sub-pixels P arranged along the first direction h1.

[0052] In the embodiment of the present invention, the first signal line 1 includes a first type signal line 11 and a second type signal line 12. The first type signal line 11 and the second type signal line 12 are both arranged corresponding to the functional component area DA. In other words, along the first direction, the first type signal line 11 and the second type signal line 12 are at least partially overlapped with the functional component area DA. Specifically, in the embodiment of the present invention, the first type signal line 11 at least partially surrounds at least two functional component areas DA. Along the first direction h1, at least one second type signal line 12 is disconnected on both sides of one of the functional component areas DA.

[0053] The display panel provided by the embodiment of the present invention can ensure that the signals transmitted by the first-type signal lines 11 are normally transmitted on both sides of the functional component area DA along the first direction h1 by making the first-type signal lines 11 at least partially surround at least two functional component areas DA, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the sub-pixels located on both sides of the functional component area DA.

[0054] Moreover, the embodiment of the present invention disconnects the second type signal line 12 on both sides of one of the functional component areas DA, and there is no need to set connecting lines on the periphery of one of the functional component areas DA to connect the second type signal lines 12 located on both sides of the functional component area DA. If connecting lines connecting the second type signal lines 12 are set on the periphery of at least two functional component areas DA, on the one hand, the load of the second type signal lines will be greatly increased, resulting in uneven loads for the second type signal lines set in the corresponding functional component area DA and other signal lines not set in the corresponding functional component area DA. On the other hand, the space occupied by the connecting lines will be greatly increased, resulting in an increase in the density of the second type signal lines 12, which increases the risk of signal crosstalk. Therefore, the embodiment of the present invention can balance the load differences of the second type signal lines 12 set at different positions of the display panel by disconnecting the second type signal lines 12 on both sides of one of the functional component areas DA, thereby reducing the space occupied by the connecting lines and avoiding signal crosstalk.

[0055] For example, Figure 1 As shown, the display panel includes a virtual line L extending along the second direction h2, and along the first direction h1, the display area AA includes a first edge S1 and a second edge S2 opposite to each other, the distance from the first edge S1 to the virtual line L is d1, and the distance from the second edge S2 to the virtual line L is d2, wherein 0.9≤d1 / d2≤1.1; it can be understood that the distances from the virtual line L to the first edge S1 and the second edge S2 are approximately equal. The at least two functional component areas DA include a first functional component area DA1 and a second functional component area DA2, and the virtual line L passes through the first functional component area DA1; along the first direction h1, the second type signal line 12 is disconnected on both sides of the first functional component area DA1. In this way, the loads of the two second type signal lines 12 disconnected on both sides of the first functional component area DA1 can be made consistent, and the display uniformity of the sub-pixels connected to the two second type signal lines 12 disconnected on both sides of the first functional component area DA1 can be improved.

[0056] Optional, such as Figure 2 As shown, Figure 2 A schematic diagram of another display panel provided by an embodiment of the present invention, wherein at least two functional component areas DA include a first functional component area DA1 and a second functional component area DA2, along a first direction h1, the length of the display area is B, the distance between the first functional component area DA1 and the edge of the display area AA is A, and B / 4≤A≤B / 2. For example, Figure 2As shown, the display area AA includes a first edge S1 and a second edge S2 that are arranged opposite to each other along a first direction h1. The distance between the first functional component area DA1 and the first edge S1 can be A as described above. Alternatively, the distance between the first functional component area DA1 and the second edge S2 can be A as described above. In the embodiment of the present invention, along the first direction h1, the second type signal line 12 is disconnected on both sides of the first functional component area DA1. In the embodiment of the present invention, by making the distance A between the first functional component area DA1 and the edge of the display area AA satisfy B / 4≤A≤B / 2, the first functional component area DA1 is prevented from being too close to the first edge S1, and the first functional component area DA1 is prevented from being too far from the first edge S1; optionally, the value of A can be B / 3, which ensures that any one of the two optical component areas can achieve when the distance meets the value of A, and the disconnection setting corresponding to one optical area can be achieved, thereby expanding the selectivity of the disconnection setting.

[0057] For example, Figure 3 As shown, Figure 3 A schematic diagram of a partial area of ​​another display panel provided by an embodiment of the present invention, wherein at least two functional component areas DA include a first functional component area DA1 and a second functional component area DA2. Along a first direction h1, a length d1 of the first functional component area DA1 is greater than a length d2 of the second functional component area DA2. Along the first direction h1, the second type of signal line 12 is disconnected on both sides of the first functional component area DA1. Since the length of the first functional component area DA1 is longer, the signal line ( Figure 3 The number of connecting lines (not shown) is also large. In the embodiment of the present invention, by disconnecting the second type signal lines 12 on both sides of the first functional component area DA1 having a larger length, the number of connecting lines that need to be set around the first functional component area DA1 to connect the second type signal lines 12 can be reduced, which is beneficial to reducing the width of the first non-display area NA1 around the first functional component area DA1.

[0058] Exemplarily, for the first functional component area DA1 having a longer length in the first direction h1, an embodiment of the present invention may also set it to the above-mentioned virtual line L passing through the display panel, and / or, an embodiment of the present invention may also make the distance A between the first functional component area DA1 having a longer length in the first direction h1 and one of the edges of the display area AA satisfy B / 4≤A≤B / 2.

[0059] For example, Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the first signal line 1 includes a first connection line 10, which electrically connects the first signal lines 1 located on both sides of at least one functional component area DA. Exemplarily, along the second direction h2, the first connection line 10 at least partially overlaps the functional component area DA.

[0060] For example, Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the first connection line 10 includes a first-type connection line 101 and a second-type connection line 102. The first-type connection line 101 belongs to the first-type signal line 11, and the second-type connection line 102 belongs to the second-type signal line 12. That is, the first-type signal line 11 includes the first-type connection line 101, and the first-type connection line 101 electrically connects the first-type signal line 11 located on both sides of the functional component area DA. The second-type signal line 12 includes the second-type connection line 102, and the second-type connection line 102 connects the second-type signal line 12 located on both sides of one of the functional component areas DA.

[0061] In the embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the number of first-type connection lines 101 is greater than the number of second-type connection lines 102. Specifically, the first connection line 10 includes at least two first-type connection lines 101, and the first connection line 10 includes at least one second-type connection line 102. The at least two first-type connection lines 101 are respectively arranged corresponding to at least two functional component areas DA. Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, when the display panel includes the first functional component area DA1 and the second functional component area DA2, one of the first-type connecting lines 101 is electrically connected to the first-type signal lines 11 located on both sides of the first functional component area DA1, and another first-type connecting line 101 is electrically connected to the first-type signal lines 11 located on both sides of the second functional component area DA2. When the second-type signal lines 12 are disconnected on both sides of the first functional component area DA1, the second-type connecting lines 102 are electrically connected to the second-type signal lines 12 located on both sides of the second functional component area DA2.

[0062] For example, Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the display panel further includes a first non-display area NA1 located between the functional component area DA and the display area AA along the second direction h2; at least a portion of the first connection line 10 is located in the first non-display area NA1. Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, at least part of the first connection line 10 extends in the direction of the edge of the functional component area DA closest to it. For example, when at least part of the edge of the functional component area DA includes an arc, at least part of the first connection line 10 can also be set as an arc.

[0063] For example, in the embodiment of the present invention, at least part of the first connection line 10 may be disposed in the display area AA. This arrangement is conducive to narrowing the width of the first non-display area NA1. Figure 4 As shown, Figure 4 A schematic diagram of a partial area of ​​another display panel provided in an embodiment of the present invention, wherein the first connection line 10 includes a first-type connection line 101 and a second-type connection line 102, at least a portion of the first-type connection line 101 is located in the display area AA, and at least a portion of the second-type connection line 102 is located in the display area AA. Of course, in an embodiment of the present invention, one of the first-type connection line 101 and the second-type connection line 102 can also be set in the display area AA, and the other can be set in the first non-display area NA1, which is not illustrated in the figure here.

[0064] When at least a portion of the first connection line 10 is disposed in the display area AA, exemplarily, in combination with Figure 4 As shown, the first connecting line 10 comprises a first line segment 1001 and a second line segment 1002 which are electrically connected, and the first line segment 1001 and the second line segment 1002 extend in different directions. Figure 4 As shown, the first line segment 1001 extends along the first direction h1, and the second line segment 1002 extends along the second direction h2. Optionally, the first line segment 1001 and the second line segment 1002 may be located in the same film layer, or in different film layers, and the two may be connected through a via.

[0065] For example, Figure 5 As shown, Figure 5 A schematic diagram of a partial area of ​​another display panel provided in an embodiment of the present invention, the display panel further includes a second non-display area NA2, the second non-display area NA2 is arranged on a side of the display area AA away from the functional component area DA; at least a portion of the first connecting line 10 is located in the second non-display area NA2. Figure 5 The figure shows a schematic diagram of setting the first line segment 1001 of the first type of connection line 101 in the second non-display area NA2, and setting the first line segment 1001 and the second line segment 1002 of the second type of connection line 102 in the display area AA. In this way, the first connection line 10 can be prevented from being interfered by other signal lines transmitting different signals in the display area AA.

[0066] Exemplarily, the display panel includes a plurality of first signal lines 1 corresponding to the functional component area DA, and along the second direction h2, a plurality of first connection lines 10 included in the plurality of first signal lines 1 are located on the same side of the functional component area DA. Figure 6 As shown, Figure 6A schematic diagram of a partial area of ​​another display panel provided in an embodiment of the present invention, wherein the display panel includes a first functional component area DA1 and a second functional component area DA2, and the display panel includes three first signal lines 1 corresponding to the first functional component area DA1 and the second functional component area DA2, wherein two of the three first signal lines 1 are first-type signal lines 11, and the other is a second-type signal line 12. The second-type signal line 12 is disconnected on both sides of the first functional component area DA1, and the second-type signal line 12 on both sides of the second functional component area DA2 is electrically connected through a first connecting line 10. At the first functional component area DA1, the two first connecting lines 10 are located on the upper side of the first functional component area DA1. At the second functional component area DA2, the three first connecting lines 10 are located on the upper side of the second functional component area DA2. Of course, in an embodiment of the present invention, multiple first connecting lines 10 can also be arranged on the lower side of the first functional component area DA1 and the second functional component area DA2, which is not illustrated in the figure here.

[0067] It should be noted that in the attached Figure 6 The first connection lines 10 illustrated in the figure are all arranged in the first non-display area NA1. Of course, the embodiments of the present invention are not limited to the above positions. The first connection lines 10 described in the above embodiments can also be arranged in the second non-display area NA2, or in the display area AA, or in at least two positions in the first non-display area NA1, the second non-display area NA2 and the display area AA.

[0068] Alternatively, along the second direction h2, the embodiment of the present invention may also arrange the first connection lines 10 included in a portion of the first signal lines 1 on one side of the functional component area DA, and arrange the first connection lines 10 included in another portion of the first signal lines 1 on the other side of the functional component area DA. Figure 7 As shown, Figure 7A schematic diagram of a partial area of ​​another display panel provided by an embodiment of the present invention, wherein the display panel includes a first functional component area DA1 and a second functional component area DA2, and the display panel includes three first signal lines 1 corresponding to the first functional component area DA1 and the second functional component area DA2, and two of the three first signal lines 1 are first-type signal lines 11, and the other is a second-type signal line 12. The second-type signal line 12 is disconnected on both sides of the first functional component area DA1, and the second-type signal line 12 on both sides of the second functional component area DA2 is electrically connected through the first connecting line 10. At the first functional component area DA1, one first connecting line 10 is located on the upper side of the first functional component area DA1, and the other first connecting line 10 is located on the lower side of the first functional component area DA1. At the second functional component area DA2, two first connecting lines 10 are located on the upper side of the second functional component area DA2, and the other first connecting line 10 is located on the lower side of the second functional component area DA2. Of course, in the second functional component area DA2, the embodiment of the present invention can also set two of the first connecting lines 10 at the lower side of the second functional component area DA2, and set another first connecting line 10 at the upper side of the second functional component area DA2. The embodiment of the present invention does not limit the number of first connecting lines.

[0069] In the embodiment of the present invention, the first connection line 10 may also be disposed in at least one position among the first non-display area NA1, the second non-display area NA2 and the display area AA, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

[0070] Optionally, along the second direction h2, the embodiment of the present invention can set the number of first connection lines 10 on both sides of the functional component area DA to be equal, so that the widths of the first non-display areas NA1 on both sides of the functional component area DA tend to be consistent.
