[0038] See also Figure 1 and Figure 8 The embodiment of the present application provides a display module 100, which is applied to a terminal 2000, wherein the terminal 2000 can be a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a smart watch, etc. For ease of understanding and explanation, the embodiment of the present application takes the terminal 2000 as a mobile phone as an example for explanation. Obviously, this is not a limitation of the embodiment of the present application.

[0039] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 In this embodiment, the display module 100 includes a glass panel 10 , a display mechanism 20 , a conductive connecting member 30 , a first soft plastic member 40 and a hard plastic member 50 .

[0040] The display mechanism 20 is stacked on the glass panel 10 . The display mechanism 20 includes a stacked display component 21 and a support component 22 . The display component 21 is stacked on the glass panel 10 , and the support component 22 is located on the upper surface of the display component 21 .

[0041] One end of the conductive connecting member 30 is connected to the display assembly 21 , and the other end of the conductive connecting member 30 is bent and connected to the supporting assembly 22 to form a receiving hole 31 .

[0042] The first soft plastic member 40 wraps the side wall of the display mechanism 20 and fills the receiving hole 31. The hard plastic member 50 covers the display mechanism 20 and the first soft plastic member 40.

[0043] Specifically, the conductive connector 30 can be a flat cable or a flat cable. The first soft plastic component 40 is formed by curing a first liquid glue (not shown) with a lower Shore hardness after being filled with glue. The hard plastic component 50 is formed by curing a second liquid glue (not shown) with a higher Shore hardness after being filled with glue.

[0044] In this way, the display module 100 of the embodiment of the present application is provided with a conductive connector 30 wrapped by the first soft plastic part 40, and the display mechanism 20 and the first soft plastic part 40 are covered by the hard plastic part 50. The hard plastic part 50 can meet the assembly requirements of the display module 100, and the conductive connector 30 area is protected by the first soft plastic part 40. When the display module 100 is impacted by the outside world, the first soft plastic part 40 can effectively absorb the impact kinetic energy, reduce the probability of the conductive connector 30 breaking and failing, and thus improve the service life of the display module 100. In this embodiment, the display assembly 21 includes a first optical adhesive layer 211, a polarizer 212, a second optical adhesive layer 213, a touch feedback member 214 and a display panel 215, which are stacked in sequence, and the first optical adhesive layer 211 is located between the polarizer 212 and the glass panel 10. The support assembly 22 includes a first tape layer 221, a metal plate 222, a foam layer 223, a second tape layer 224 and a metal member 225 which are stacked in sequence, and the first tape layer 221 is located between the display panel 215 and the metal plate 222. One end of the conductive connector 30 is connected to the touch feedback member 214 and the display panel 215, and the other end of the conductive connector 30 is bent and inserted between the foam layer 223 and the second tape layer 224, and then extends through the second tape layer 224 and the metal member 225 to the side of the metal member 225 away from the second tape layer 224, so as to facilitate connection with a processor (not shown) of the terminal 2000.

[0045] The metal part 225 can be made of one or more materials selected from iron, titanium, aluminum, and steel. The metal part 225 is in a square ring shape. Correspondingly, the hard plastic part 50 and the first soft plastic part 40 can both be in a square ring shape. The hard plastic part 50 covers the upper surface of the metal part 225 from the upper surface of the first soft plastic part 40. Optionally, the hard plastic part 50 covers a portion of the upper surface of the metal part 225, and another portion of the upper surface of the metal part 225 is exposed, so as to be used for welding small metal parts later.

[0046] The first optical adhesive layer 211 is used to bond the polarizer 212 and the glass panel 10. The polarizer 212 is used to scatter light so that the user can see the content displayed on the display panel 215. The second optical adhesive layer 213 is used to bond the touch feedback member 214 and the polarizer 212. The touch feedback member 214 uses pressure sensing to collect touch signals. The display panel 215 is used for picture display. The first tape layer 221 is used to fix the metal plate 222. The metal plate 222 is used to protect the touch feedback member 214 and the display panel 215. The foam layer 223 is used to protect the portion of the conductive connecting member 30 inserted between the foam layer 223 and the second tape layer 224. The second tape layer 224 is used to fix the metal member 225. The metal member 225 is used to protect the internal structure of the entire display mechanism 20, and a hook (not shown) for assembling the terminal 2000 can be welded on the metal member 225.

[0047] During use of the display module 100, the touch feedback member 214 receives the user's touch signal and then feeds it back to the processor through the conductive connection member 30. The processor feeds the processed signal back to the display panel 215 through the conductive connection member 30 for display, thereby achieving the use effect.

[0048] Please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 In some other embodiments, the first soft rubber part 40 may not be in a square ring shape. Specifically, the first soft rubber part 40 includes a strip-shaped soft rubber part 41, and the strip-shaped soft rubber part 41 wraps a side wall of the display mechanism 20. Specifically, the strip-shaped soft rubber part 41 wraps a side wall of the display mechanism 20 protruding with the conductive connector 30, thereby wrapping the conductive connector 30 and filling the receiving hole 31. When the display module 100 is impacted by the outside, the strip-shaped soft rubber part 41 outside the conductive connector 30 and the strip-shaped soft rubber part 41 inside the receiving hole 31 can effectively absorb the impact kinetic energy, reduce the probability of the conductive connector 30 breaking and failing, and thus improve the service life of the display module 100.

[0049] Please refer to Figure 6In some other embodiments, the first soft rubber part 40 can be formed by multiple sections of rubber. Specifically, the first soft rubber part 40 further includes two arc-shaped soft rubber parts 42, and the two arc-shaped soft rubber parts 42 respectively wrap the two arc-shaped corner side walls 216 of the display component 21; the two ends of the strip-shaped soft rubber part 41 are respectively connected to the two arc-shaped soft rubber parts 42.

[0050] Specifically, the curved soft rubber portion 42 is located at the corner of the display assembly 21, and the upper surface of one side of the glass panel 10 receives the curved soft rubber portion 42. Since the area of ​​the display module 100 that is more likely to fail due to impact also includes the corner area, by providing the curved soft rubber portion 42 to wrap the curved corner side wall 216 of the display assembly 21, the impact kinetic energy can be effectively absorbed, and the probability of failure due to impact at the corner of the display module 100 can be reduced, thereby facilitating the service life of the display module 100.

[0051] Please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 In this embodiment, the hard plastic part 50 includes an annular hard plastic part 51 and a U-shaped hard plastic part 52. The annular hard plastic part 51 covers the upper surface of the first soft plastic part 40 and at least part of the upper surface of the supporting assembly 22; the U-shaped hard plastic part 52 is connected between the annular hard plastic part 51 and the glass panel 10, and wraps the three sides of the display mechanism 20 connected in sequence.

[0052] Specifically, the U-shaped hard plastic part 52 is located below the annular hard plastic part 51 and connected to the annular hard plastic part 51. The annular hard plastic part 51 covers the upper surface of the first soft plastic part 40 and the edge area of ​​the upper surface of the support assembly 22. The U-shaped hard plastic part 52 wraps the other three side walls of the display mechanism 20 except for the protruding conductive connector 30. In this way, the annular hard plastic part 51 and the U-shaped hard plastic part 52 effectively support and protect the first soft plastic part 40 and the display mechanism 20, ensure the assembly requirements of the display module 100, and improve the service life of the display module 100.

[0053] In this embodiment, the side wall of the support assembly 22 has two side recesses 2261, and the support assembly 22 has two through holes 2262. The two through holes 2262 are respectively connected to the two side recesses 2261 to form two limit glue cavities 226. The display module 100 also includes a second soft plastic member 60, which fills the two limit glue cavities 226 and extends and wraps a part of the side wall of the display mechanism 20 to connect with the strip-shaped soft plastic portion 41.

[0054] Specifically, the two side recesses 2261 are respectively located at two corners of the support component 22 close to the conductive connector 30 , and the two side recesses 2261 are formed by the inward recess of the second tape layer 224 . The two through holes 2262 are both opened on the metal part 225 and connected to the corresponding side recesses 2261 .

[0055] When the display module 100 is filled with glue, the third liquid glue (not shown) is first poured into the two limit glue pulling cavities 226, so that the third liquid glue wraps the side wall of the display mechanism 20 near the corner of the conductive connector 30, and the first liquid glue is poured into the second soft glue part 60 after the third liquid glue is solidified to form the first soft glue part. Since the side walls of the various parts of the support component 22 are uneven, when the first liquid glue is poured, the first liquid glue is easy to overflow from the gap of the side wall of the support component 22. By setting two second soft glue parts 60, it is possible to block at both ends when the first liquid glue is poured, thereby improving the fullness of the first liquid glue after pouring, and further improving the wrapping and protection effect of the first soft glue part on the conductive connector 30. In addition, the second soft glue part 60 can also protect the two corners of the support component 22 near the conductive connector 30, which is conducive to improving the service life of the display module 100. The through hole 2262 is provided to facilitate the use of a glue needle (not shown) to inject the third liquid glue into the side recess 2261, and the through hole 2262 also has the function of fixing the second soft glue component 60 to prevent the second soft glue component 60 from escaping from the limiting glue pulling cavity 226 when the display module 100 is demolded.

[0056] In this embodiment, the hardness of the first soft plastic part 40 may range from Shore 60HA to Shore 65HA, the hardness of the second soft plastic part 60 may range from Shore 40HA to Shore 45HA, and the hardness of the hard plastic part 50 may be greater than or equal to Shore 75HD.

[0057] In this way, the hard plastic part 50 can still be kept within the hardness range of engineering plastics, thereby ensuring that the display module 100 meets the assembly requirements. The first soft plastic part 40 and the second soft plastic part 60 are within a reasonable hardness range and have good elasticity, so that the conductive connector 30 and the two corners of the support assembly 22 close to the conductive connector 30 can be protected respectively, thereby facilitating the improvement of the service life of the display module 100.

[0058] In this embodiment, the thermal expansion coefficient of the first soft plastic part 40 is in the range of 50ppm-120ppm. Since the first soft plastic part 40 is wrapped around the conductive connector 30, if the thermal expansion coefficient of the first soft plastic part 40 is too high, the first soft plastic part 40 pulls the conductive connector 30 to a large extent when it is thermally expanded, which easily causes the conductive connector 30 to break. By setting the first soft plastic part 40 to have a smaller thermal expansion coefficient, the first soft plastic part 40 pulls the conductive connector 30 to a smaller extent when it is thermally expanded, thereby reducing the risk of the conductive connector 30 breaking, which is beneficial to improving the service life of the display module 100.

[0059] Please refer to Figure 2In some other embodiments, the strip-shaped soft rubber part 41 may be formed with a plurality of grooves 411 arranged at intervals, and the annular hard rubber part 51 fills the grooves 411. The provision of the grooves 411 increases the contact area and the bonding force between the strip-shaped soft rubber part 41 and the annular hard rubber part 51, thereby improving the firmness of the strip-shaped soft rubber part 41 and the annular hard rubber part 51 after bonding.

[0060] Please refer to Figure 7 , Figure 8 and Fig. 9 The embodiment of the present application also provides a display module sealing method for sealing the above-mentioned display module 100, wherein the display module 100 includes a conductive connector 30 and a glass panel 10 and a display mechanism 20 which are stacked in sequence, wherein the display mechanism 20 includes a stacked display component 21 and a support component 22, wherein the display component 21 is stacked on the glass panel 10, wherein one end of the conductive connector 30 is connected to the display component 21, and the other end of the conductive connector 30 is bent and connected to the support component 22 to form a receiving hole 31, and the display module sealing method includes the following steps: In step S1 , the display module 100 is sealed in a first fixture 1000 , so that the display mechanism 20 and the inner wall of the first fixture 1000 form a first molding cavity (not shown).

[0062] Specifically, a glue injection needle is inserted from the first fixture 1000 into the first molding cavity, thereby injecting the first liquid glue into the first molding cavity.

[0063] Step S3 , curing the first liquid glue to form a first soft glue member 40 .

[0064] Specifically, the first liquid glue may be cured by a UV light curing device (not shown) to form the first soft glue member 40 .

[0065] In step S4 , the display module 100 formed with the first soft plastic member 40 is sealed in a second fixture (not shown) so that the first soft plastic member 40 and the display mechanism 20 form a second molding cavity (not shown) with the inner wall of the second fixture.

[0066] Specifically, the structure of the second fixture can be generally similar to the first fixture 1000 , but partially different. For example, the second molding cavity is different from the first molding cavity and is set according to the shapes of the hard plastic part 50 to be molded and the first soft plastic part 40 .

[0067] Step S5 , pouring the second liquid glue into the second molding cavity, so that the second liquid glue covers the display mechanism 20 and the first soft glue component 40 .

[0068] Specifically, a glue injection needle is inserted from the second fixture into the second molding cavity, thereby injecting the second liquid glue into the second molding cavity.

[0069] Step S6 , curing the second liquid glue to form a hard glue member 50 .

[0070] Specifically, the second liquid glue can be cured by a UV light curing device (not shown) to form a hard glue member 50. The first liquid glue and the second liquid glue have different ingredients and ratios.

[0071] The display module sealing method of the embodiment of the present application is to respectively inject the first liquid glue and the second liquid glue into the first molding cavity and the second molding cavity to form the first soft glue part 40 and the hard glue part 50, and the first liquid glue wraps the side wall of the display mechanism 20, and the second liquid glue covers the display mechanism 20 and the first soft glue part 40. Then, the conductive connecting part 30 of the display module 100 after the glue injection molding is wrapped by the first soft glue part 40, and the hard glue part 50 covers the upper surface of the display mechanism 20 and the upper surface of the first soft glue part 40. The hard glue part 50 can meet the assembly requirements of the display module 100, and the conductive connecting part 30 area is protected by the first soft glue part 40. When the display module 100 is impacted by the outside, the first soft glue part 40 outside the conductive connecting part 30 and the first soft glue part 40 in the storage hole 31 can effectively absorb the impact kinetic energy, reducing the probability of the conductive connecting part 30 breaking and failing, thereby improving the service life of the display module 100.

[0072] In this embodiment, the first molding cavity of the first jig 1000 can be strip-shaped, so that the first soft rubber part 40 after molding and curing is strip-shaped, and the first soft rubber part 40 after molding and curing is stably sealed on the side of the display mechanism 20 protruding with the conductive connecting part 30, and the first soft rubber part 40 after molding and curing wraps the conductive connecting part 30 and protects the conductive connecting part 30. In some other embodiments, the first molding cavity of the first jig 1000 can also be annular, so that the first soft rubber part 40 is annular, and the first soft rubber part 40 covers the peripheral side of the display mechanism 20 and wraps the conductive connecting part 30, which is not specifically limited in the embodiment of the present application.

[0073] In some embodiments, Fig. 9 As shown, the first molding cavity includes a side molding cavity 1001; in step S1, the display mechanism 20 and the inner side wall of the first fixture 1000 form the first molding cavity specifically including: a side wall of the display mechanism 20 and an inner side wall of the first fixture 1000 form the side molding cavity 1001. In step S2, the step of wrapping the side wall of the display mechanism 20 with the first liquid glue specifically includes: wrapping the side wall of the display mechanism 20 with the first liquid glue.

[0074] Since only one of the four peripheral side walls of the display mechanism 20 is provided with a conductive connector 30, the first liquid glue can be used to seal only one side of the display mechanism 20 having the conductive connector 30. Specifically, the portion of the conductive connector 30 protruding from the side wall of the display mechanism 20 is received in the side molding cavity 1001. The side molding cavity 1001 is in a strip shape. When the first liquid glue is poured into the side molding cavity 1001 and solidified, a strip-shaped soft glue portion 41 of the first soft glue member 40 matching the shape of the side molding cavity 1001 can be formed. The strip-shaped soft glue portion 41 wraps the side wall of the display mechanism 20 protruding with the conductive connector 30, thereby wrapping the conductive connector 30. When the display module 100 is impacted by the outside world, the strip-shaped soft glue portion 41 can effectively absorb the impact kinetic energy, reduce the probability of the conductive connector 30 breaking and failing, and thus improve the service life of the display module 100.

[0075] Furthermore, the first molding cavity further includes two arc-shaped molding cavities 1002 , which are respectively connected to two ends of the side molding cavity 1001 , and the height of the arc-shaped molding cavity 1002 is smaller than that of the side molding cavity 1001 .

[0076] In step S1 , the display mechanism 20 and the inner side wall of the first fixture 1000 form a first molding cavity, specifically including: two arc-shaped corner side walls 216 of the display component 21 and two arc-shaped corner inner side walls (not shown) of the first fixture 1000 respectively form two arc-shaped molding cavities 1002 .

[0077] In step S2 , the step of wrapping the side wall of the display mechanism 20 with the first liquid glue specifically includes: the first liquid glue also wraps the two arc-shaped corner side walls 216 of the display component 21 .

[0078] Specifically, the two arc-shaped molding cavities 1002 are relatively small in size. When the first liquid glue is poured into the side molding cavity 1001, the first liquid glue overflows from the side molding cavity 1001 to the two arc-shaped molding cavities 1002. When the first liquid glue is solidified, two arc-shaped soft glue portions 42 of the first soft glue member 40 can be formed. Since the area of ​​the display module 100 that is more likely to fail due to impact also includes the corner area, by setting the first liquid glue to also wrap the two arc-shaped corner side walls 216 of the display component 21, the impact kinetic energy can be effectively absorbed after the arc-shaped soft glue portion 42 is formed, and the probability of failure due to impact at the corner of the display module 100 is reduced, which is conducive to improving the service life of the display module 100.

[0079] In this embodiment, the first liquid glue only wraps the two arc-shaped corner side walls 216 of the display component 21 , and does not wrap the corner portion of the support component 22 , thereby leaving space for wrapping the second liquid glue at the two corner portions of the support component 22 .

[0080] In this embodiment, the display mechanism 20 also includes three side walls that are sequentially connected to form a U-shaped side wall 23; the second molding cavity includes a U-shaped molding cavity (not shown) and an annular molding cavity (not shown) that are connected. In step S4, the first soft plastic part 40 and the display mechanism 20 form the second molding cavity with the inner wall of the second fixture, specifically including: Step S41, the upper surface of the first soft plastic member 40 and at least a portion of the upper surface of the support assembly 22 form an annular molding cavity with the top wall of the second fixture; Step S42 , the three sequentially connected side walls of the display mechanism 20 and the three side walls of the second fixture form a U-shaped cavity.

[0081] In step S5 , the second liquid glue covers the display mechanism 20 and the first soft glue member 40 , specifically including: the second liquid glue covers the upper surface of the first soft glue member 40 and a portion of the upper surface of the support assembly 22 , and wraps the U-shaped side wall 23 of the display mechanism 20 .

[0082] Specifically, the three side walls connected to form the U-shaped side wall 23 are respectively the other three side surfaces of the display mechanism 20 except the side wall protruding with the conductive connector 30. When the second liquid glue is poured into the U-shaped cavity and the annular molding cavity and solidified, the annular hard glue portion 51 and the U-shaped hard glue portion 52 of the hard glue part 50 can be formed, and the annular hard glue portion 51 covers the upper surface of the first soft glue part 40 and the edge area of ​​the upper surface of the support component 22, and the U-shaped hard glue portion 52 wraps the other three side walls of the display mechanism 20 except the side wall protruding with the conductive connector 30. The annular hard glue portion 51 and the U-shaped hard glue portion 52 effectively support and protect the first soft glue part 40 and the display mechanism 20, thereby ensuring the assembly requirements of the display module 100 and improving the service life of the display module 100.

[0083] In this embodiment, the side wall of the support component 22 has two side recesses 2261, and the support component 22 has two through holes 2262. The two through holes 2262 are respectively connected to the two side recesses 2261 to form two limit glue pulling cavities 226. The display module sealing method also includes: In step S7 , the display module 100 is sealed in a third fixture (not shown) so that the two limiting glue drawing cavities 226 of the support component 22 and the inner side wall of the third fixture form a limiting glue drawing molding cavity (not shown).

[0084] Step S8, pouring a third liquid glue (not shown) into the limiting glue-pulling molding cavity, so that the third liquid glue fills the two limiting glue-pulling cavities 226 of the support component 22, and extends to wrap part of the side wall of the display mechanism 20, so as to limit the subsequent pouring of the first liquid glue into the first molding cavity.

[0085] Step S9 , curing the third liquid glue to form a second soft glue member 60 .

[0086] The third liquid glue may be cured by a UV light curing device (not shown) to form the second soft glue member 60 .

[0087] Specifically, the two side recesses 2261 are respectively located at two corners of the support component 22 close to the conductive connector 30 , and the two side recesses 2261 are formed by the inward recess of the second tape layer 224 . The two through holes 2262 are both opened on the metal part 225 and connected to the corresponding side recesses 2261 .

[0088] When the display module 100 is filled with glue, firstly, steps S7-S9 are performed, and the third liquid glue is injected into the limited glue drawing molding cavity by inserting the glue injection needle from the third fixture into the through hole 2262, so that the third liquid glue wraps the side wall of the display mechanism 20 near the corner of the conductive connector 30, and then steps S1-S6 are performed after the third liquid glue is solidified to form the second soft glue part 60. Since the two second soft glue parts 60 are blocked at both ends of the first molding cavity when the first liquid glue is poured, the fullness of the first liquid glue poured into the first molding cavity is improved, thereby improving the wrapping and protection effect of the first soft glue part on the conductive connector 30. In addition, the second soft glue part 60 can also protect the two corners of the support component 22 near the conductive connector 30, which is conducive to improving the service life of the display module 100. The through hole 2262 is provided to facilitate the use of a glue needle (not shown) to inject the third liquid glue into the side recess 2261, and the through hole 2262 also has the function of fixing the second soft glue component 60 to prevent the second soft glue component 60 from escaping from the limiting glue pulling cavity 226 when the display module 100 is demolded.

[0089] In this embodiment, the top of the first jig 1000 has a plurality of spaced protrusions (not shown) so that after the first liquid glue is poured into the first molding cavity and solidified, the first soft glue part 40 forms a plurality of spaced grooves 411, and when the second liquid glue is poured into the second molding cavity, the second liquid glue fills the grooves 411.

[0090] In this way, it is convenient to form a plurality of grooves 411 arranged at intervals on the side wall where the first soft plastic part 40 contacts the hard plastic part 50 after molding. The arrangement of the grooves 411 increases the contact area and bonding force between the first soft plastic part 40 and the hard plastic part 50, thereby improving the firmness of the first soft plastic part 40 and the hard plastic part 50 after bonding.

[0091] Please refer to Fig.10 and Fig.11 The embodiment of the present application also provides a terminal 2000, including a middle frame 700 and the display module 100 as described above, the display module 100 is arranged in the middle frame 700, and there is an avoidance space 710 between the corner part of the middle frame 700 and the display module 100.

[0092] The terminal 2000 of the embodiment of the present application is provided with a display module 100 including a first soft plastic part 40 and a hard plastic part 50, which is conducive to improving the service life of the display module 100, and further conducive to improving the service life of the terminal 2000. In addition, when the terminal 2000 falls or is impacted, the corner position of the middle frame 700 is prone to deformation and squeeze the display module 100, thereby easily causing damage to the display module 100. By providing an avoidance space 710 between the middle frame 700 and the corner part of the display module 100, the deformed part of the middle frame 700 can be accommodated when the corner position of the middle frame 700 is deformed due to impact, thereby preventing the deformed part of the middle frame 700 from squeezing the display module 100 and causing damage to the display module 100, thereby further improving the service life of the terminal 2000.

[0093] In this embodiment, the avoidance space 710 is formed between the inner wall at the corner of the middle frame 700 and the outer wall at the corner of the display mechanism 20 , and the middle frame 700 is bonded to the side wall of the glass panel 10 and the side of the hard plastic component 50 away from the metal component 225 .

[0094] In this embodiment, the distance between the inner side wall at the corner of the middle frame 700 and the outer side wall at the corner of the display module 100 is 0.5 mm-1 mm (i.e., the width of the avoidance space 710), and this distance can ensure that the avoidance space 710 has a suitable size, so that the avoidance space 710 can effectively accommodate the deformed part of the middle frame 700 when the corner of the middle frame 700 is deformed due to impact, and avoid the deformed part of the middle frame 700 from squeezing the display module 100 and causing damage to the display module 100, thereby facilitating the service life of the terminal 2000. In addition, this distance can also prevent the size of the middle frame 700 from being too large, which affects the size and firmness of the middle frame 700 and the display module 100 after assembly.
