[0034] At present, liquid crystal display panels have begun to be continuously developed and innovated, and many narrow-border products have been produced. The increasingly narrow borders require extreme design changes to the previous panel structure, resulting in a decrease in the anti-falling strength of the liquid crystal panel. Therefore, how to effectively improve the anti-falling strength of narrow-border products is particularly important.

[0035] In order to solve the technical problems existing in the prior art, the present application provides an electronic device, see Figure 1 , Figure 1 It is a schematic diagram of the structure of an embodiment of an electronic device provided by the present application.

[0036] The electronic device 1 includes a housing 20 and a display panel 10, and the housing 20 is used to carry the display panel 10.

[0037] See also Figure 2 , Figure 2 It is a schematic structural diagram of a first embodiment of a display panel provided in the present application.

[0038] The display panel 10 includes a first substrate 100, a second substrate 200, a liquid crystal layer 300 and a side seal 400. The second substrate 200 is opposite to the first substrate 100 and is spaced apart in a first direction Y. The liquid crystal layer 300 is arranged between the first substrate 100 and the second substrate 200 in the first direction Y. The side seal 400 connects the first substrate 100 and the second substrate 200, respectively. The side seal 400 abuts against a side end surface of at least one of the first substrate 100 and the second substrate 200 in the second direction X. The first direction Y and the second direction X are perpendicular to each other. The side seal 400 is welded and fixed to the first substrate 100 and the second substrate 200, respectively, so that the first substrate 100 and the second substrate 200 are fixedly connected.

[0039] One of the first substrate 100 and the second substrate 200 is a driving substrate, and the other is a color filter substrate. For example, the first substrate 100 is a driving substrate, and the second substrate 200 is a color filter substrate; or the first substrate 100 is a color filter substrate, and the second substrate 200 is a driving substrate. The driving substrate may include a substrate and a driving electrode layer, the driving electrode layer is located on the substrate, and the driving electrode layer can be used to drive the liquid crystal molecules in the liquid crystal layer 300 to deflect. The color filter substrate can be used to filter light of a specific wavelength, so as to adjust the display screen of the display panel 10. For example, the color filter substrate may include a substrate and a color filter, the color filter is located on the substrate, and the color filter may include three color filter areas of red, green and blue. When the first substrate 100 and the second substrate 200 form the display panel 10, the two may be arranged oppositely and spaced along the first direction Y. The liquid crystal layer 300 may be located between the first substrate 100 and the second substrate 200 in the first direction Y, so that the first substrate 100 and the second substrate 200 sandwich the liquid crystal layer 300, and the liquid crystal layer 300 includes liquid crystal molecules, and the liquid crystal molecules may be deflected in the liquid crystal layer 300. Specifically, the liquid crystal layer 300 may be located in the driving region of the first substrate 100 and the second substrate 200, and the electrode layer of the driving region of the first substrate 100 and the electrode layer of the driving region of the second substrate 200 may cooperate to drive the liquid crystal molecules in the liquid crystal layer 300 to deflect, thereby achieving the purpose of changing the display screen of the display panel 10.

[0040] The side seal 400 may be made of glass, and the side seal 400 may be used to connect the first substrate 100 and the second substrate 200 respectively, so as to seal the gap between the first substrate 100 and the second substrate 200 in the first direction Y in the second direction X, thereby achieving the purpose of sealing the liquid crystal layer 300. The side seal 400 abutting against the side end surface of at least one of the first substrate 100 and the second substrate 200 in the second direction X may be understood to include at least the following situations: the side seal 400 abuts against the side end surface of the first substrate 100 and the side end surface of the second substrate 200 in the second direction X; or the side seal 400 abuts against the side end surface of the first substrate 100 in the second direction X, and abuts against the main end surface of the second substrate 200 in the first direction Y; or the side seal 400 abuts against the side end surface of the second substrate 200 in the second direction X, and abuts against the main end surface of the first substrate 100 in the first direction Y, and so on. The side seal 400 is in contact with the first substrate 100 and the second substrate 200 respectively, and the first substrate 100 and the side seal 400 are welded and fixed by welding, and the second substrate 200 and the side seal 400 are welded and fixed, and then the first substrate 100 and the second substrate 200 are welded and fixed by the side seal 400. The welding method may include but is not limited to laser welding, resistance welding, arc welding, etc. Taking infrared laser welding as an example, the laser wavelength may be between 1000nm and 1100nm, and the specific laser wavelength may be 1030nm, the output power may be between 9w and 11w, and the specific wavelength may be 10w, the pulse width may be between 500 and 800, the processing speed may be 10mm / s, and the allowable GAP value may be less than 5um.

[0041] Through the above-mentioned embodiment, the side seal 400 abuts against the side end surface of at least one of the first substrate 100 and the second substrate 200 in the second direction X, and the side seal 400 is welded and fixed to the first substrate 100 and the second substrate 200 respectively, thereby improving the side waterproof performance of the display panel 10 and improving the fixing effect of the first substrate 100 and the second substrate 200.

[0042] Specifically, the side seal 400 abuts against the side end surface of the first substrate 100 in the second direction X, and abuts against the side end surface of the second substrate 200 in the second direction X. That is, the side seal 400 is located outside the first substrate 100 and the second substrate 200 in the second direction X, and the side seal 400 is disposed around the first substrate 100 and the second substrate 200 at the same time, so that the side seal 400 abuts against the side end surface of the first substrate 100 and the side end surface of the second substrate 200, respectively, so that the side seal 400 is fixedly connected to the first substrate 100 and the second substrate 200 at the same time by welding.

[0043] See also Figure 3 , Figure 3 It is a schematic structural diagram of a second embodiment of the display panel 10 provided in the present application.

[0044] The side seal 400 includes a first end surface 410, a second end surface 420 and a side surface 430. The first end surface 410 and the second end surface 420 face the liquid crystal layer 300. The second end surface 420 is sunken relative to the first end surface 410. The side surface 430 connects the first end surface 410 and the second end surface 420 respectively. The first end surface 410 abuts against the side end surface of the first substrate 100 in the second direction X. The side surface 430 abuts against the main end surface of the second substrate 200 in the first direction Y. The second end surface 420 abuts against the side end surface of the second substrate 200 in the second direction X. In this embodiment, the length of the second substrate 200 in the second direction X is greater than the length of the first substrate 100 in the second direction X, so that the second substrate 200 protrudes from the first substrate 100. The side seal 400 can be divided into two parts, and the thickness of one part in the second direction X is greater than the thickness of the other part in the second direction X, so that a step is formed between the connection of the two parts. The first end surface 410 is the end surface of the portion with a larger thickness facing the liquid crystal layer 300, the second end surface 420 is the end surface of the portion with a smaller thickness facing the liquid crystal layer 300, and the side surface 430 is the surface of the step formed between the two portions facing the second substrate 200. Thus, the first end surface 410 can abut against the side end surface of the first substrate 100 in the second direction X, the side surface 430 can abut against the main end surface of the second substrate 200 in the first direction Y, and the second end surface 420 can abut against the side end surface of the second substrate 200 in the second direction X, thereby increasing the contact area between the side seal 400 and the first substrate 100 and the second substrate 200, and thereby improving the stability of the fixation between the first substrate 100 and the second substrate 200 and the side seal 400.

[0045] In some embodiments, the first welding track 510 on the side seal 400 penetrates the opposite side surfaces 430 of the side seal 400 to the side end surface of the first substrate 100 in the second direction X, so that the first substrate 100 and the side seal 400 are welded and fixed. Taking the first welding track 510 as a laser welding track as an example, the laser can be emitted from the side of the side seal 400 away from the liquid crystal layer 300, so that the laser penetrates the opposite side surfaces 430 of the side seal 400 and emits to the side end surface of the first substrate 100, so that the first substrate 100 and the side seal 400 are welded and fixed. Among them, the thickness of the first substrate 100 in the first direction Y can be about 500μm, and the weld width of the first welding track 510 is about 100μm, thereby forming 3 to 4 first welding tracks 510 to fix the side seal 400 and the first substrate 100.

[0046] And the second welding track 520 on the side seal 400 penetrates the opposite side surfaces 430 of the side seal 400 to the side end surface of the second substrate 200 in the second direction X, so that the second substrate 200 and the side seal 400 are welded and fixed. Taking the second welding track 520 as a laser welding track as an example, the laser can be emitted from the side of the side seal 400 away from the liquid crystal layer 300, so that the laser penetrates the opposite side surfaces 430 of the side seal 400 and emits to the side end surface of the second substrate 200, so that the second substrate 200 and the side seal 400 are welded and fixed. Among them, the thickness of the second substrate 200 in the first direction Y can be about 500μm, and the weld width of the second welding track 520 is about 100μm, so that 3 to 4 second welding tracks 520 can be formed to fix the side seal 400 and the second substrate 200.

[0047] See also Figure 4 , Figure 4 It is a schematic structural diagram of a third embodiment of the display panel 10 provided in the present application.

[0048] The side seal 400 abuts against the side end surface of the first substrate 100 in the second direction X, and the side seal 400 abuts against the main end surface of the second substrate 200 in the first direction Y. In this embodiment, the length of the second substrate 200 in the second direction X is greater than the length of the first substrate 100 in the second direction X, so that the second substrate 200 protrudes from the first substrate 100. The length of the second substrate 200 protruding from the first substrate 100 may be greater than or equal to the thickness of the side seal 400 in the second direction X, so that the side seal 400 can abut against the main end surface of the second substrate 200 in the first direction Y, so that the side seal 400 is fixedly connected to the first substrate 100 and the second substrate 200 at the same time by welding.

[0049] Further, the first welding track 510 on the side seal 400 penetrates the opposite side surfaces 430 of the side seal 400 to the side end surface of the first substrate 100 in the second direction X, so that the first substrate 100 and the side seal 400 are welded and fixed. Taking the first welding track 510 as a laser welding track as an example, the laser can be emitted from the side of the side seal 400 away from the liquid crystal layer 300, so that the laser penetrates the opposite side surfaces 430 of the side seal 400 and emits to the side end surface of the first substrate 100, so that the first substrate 100 and the side seal 400 are welded and fixed. Among them, the thickness of the first substrate 100 in the first direction Y can be about 500μm, and the weld width of the first welding track 510 is about 100μm, thereby forming 3 to 4 first welding tracks 510 to fix the side seal 400 and the first substrate 100.

[0050] And the second welding track 520 on the side seal 400 penetrates the opposite side surfaces 430 of the second substrate 200 to the side seal 400 in the first direction Y, so that the second substrate 200 and the side seal 400 are welded and fixed. Taking the second welding track 520 as a laser welding track as an example, the laser can be emitted from the side of the second substrate 200 away from the liquid crystal layer 300, so that the laser penetrates the opposite side surfaces 430 of the second substrate 200 and emits to the side seal 400, so that the second substrate 200 and the side seal 400 are welded and fixed. Among them, the thickness of the side seal 400 in the second direction X can be about 300μm, and the weld width of the second welding track 520 is about 100μm, thereby forming two second welding tracks 520 to fix the side seal 400 and the second substrate 200.

[0051] See also Figure 5 , Figure 5 It is a schematic structural diagram of a fourth embodiment of the display panel 10 provided in the present application.

[0052] The second substrate 200 includes a base substrate 210 and an electrode layer 220 disposed on the base substrate 210, the electrode layer 220 covers a portion of the base substrate 210 to expose a portion of the base substrate 210, and the side seal 400 abuts against the exposed portion of the base substrate 210 in the second direction X. The base substrate 210 can be made of a hard material such as glass, ceramic, sapphire, etc., so that the electrode layer 220 can be carried by the base substrate 210. Exemplarily, the base substrate 210 can be divided into a driving area and a welding area, and the driving area can be disposed adjacent to the welding area, for example, the driving area can be located on one side of the welding area, or the welding area can be annular so that the welding area is disposed around the driving area. The electrode layer 220 is located in the driving area of ​​the base substrate 210, and the welding area of ​​the base substrate 210 is exposed, and the side seal 400 is in contact with the exposed welding area of ​​the base substrate 210 in the second direction X. When the second welding track 520 on the side seal 400 passes through the opposite side surfaces 430 of the base substrate 210 to the side seal 400 in the first direction Y, so that the second substrate 200 and the side seal 400 are welded and fixed, the risk of the electrode layer 220 absorbing part of the welding energy during the welding operation, resulting in insufficient welding energy absorbed by the base substrate 210 itself, can be alleviated, thereby improving the welding quality of the second substrate 200 and the side seal 400.

[0053] See also Figure 6 , Figure 6 It is a schematic structural diagram of a fifth embodiment of the display panel 10 provided in the present application.

[0054] The display panel 10 further includes a sealant 600, which is located between the first substrate 100 and the second substrate 200, and the sealant 600 is arranged around the liquid crystal layer 300. The sealant 600 can be arranged around the liquid crystal layer 300 and supported between the first substrate 100 and the second substrate 200, so that the liquid crystal layer 300 is sealed by the sealant 600 in cooperation with the first substrate 100 and the second substrate 200, so that the liquid crystal layer 300 is in a sealed environment. The sealant 600 can be only sandwiched between the substrate of the first substrate 100 and the substrate of the second substrate 200, that is, the sealant 600 does not need to contact the electrode layer of the first substrate 100 and the electrode layer of the second substrate 200, thereby improving the adhesion between the sealant 600 and the first substrate 100 and the second substrate 200, and improving the sealing effect of the sealant 600.

[0055] See also Figure 7 , Figure 7 It is a schematic structural diagram of a sixth embodiment of the display panel 10 provided in the present application.

[0056] The display panel 10 further includes a light shielding layer 700, which covers the surface of the side seal 400 away from the liquid crystal layer 300. The light shielding layer 700 may include, but is not limited to, ink or other materials capable of blocking light. The light shielding layer 700 can alleviate light transmission. In this embodiment, the light shielding layer 700 covers the surface of the side seal 400 away from the liquid crystal layer 300, and can block the leaked light beam in the second direction X through the light shielding layer 700, thereby reducing the risk of light leakage from the side of the display panel 10.

[0057] In summary, the side seal 400 abuts against the side end surface of at least one of the first substrate 100 and the second substrate 200 in the second direction X, and the side seal 400 is welded and fixed to the first substrate 100 and the second substrate 200 respectively, thereby improving the side waterproof performance of the display panel 10 and improving the fixing effect of the first substrate 100 and the second substrate 200.
