Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of displays, and particularly to a touch control substrate, a driving method, and a touch display panel. Background Art
[0002] With the rapid development of display technologies, touch display panels have been widely accepted and used by people. For example, touch display panels are used in smartphones, tablet computers, etc. The touch display panel combines a touch panel and a display panel into one by using an embedded touch technology, and embeds the touch panel function into the display panel, so that the display panel has both the functions of displaying and sensing touch inputs.
[0003] According to the different setting methods of the touch sensing layer in the display panel, touch display panels are divided into structures such as Addon Mode, In-cell, and On-cell. The In-cell touch screen integrates the touch function into the display screen, so it can effectively reduce the thickness of the entire display and simplify the production process, making the product thinner and lighter and the production cost lower. The On-cell touch screen directly configures a touch panel on the liquid crystal display panel, and the technical difficulty is much lower than that of the In-Cell technology. It is widely used and is one of the mainstream touch technologies in current liquid crystal display devices.
[0004] The fluidity of liquid crystal molecules in a liquid crystal display device is affected by temperature, resulting in the response speed of the liquid crystal display device being also affected by temperature. The lower the temperature, the worse the fluidity of liquid crystal molecules and the slower the response speed of the liquid crystal display device. With the increasing development of in-vehicle displays, in-vehicle display devices need to adapt to various environments. Especially in environments with relatively low temperatures, there are great challenges for the startup of liquid crystal display devices. In this case, various designs need to be made to the structure of the liquid crystal display device to improve the response speed of the liquid crystal display device. In the prior art, in order to heat the liquid crystal display device, an additional process is usually required to manufacture a heating structure to heat the liquid crystal display device, which will make the structure of the liquid crystal display device more complex and the manufacturing cost higher.

[0042] In this embodiment, the invalid touch driving electrode 141 includes an invalid touch driving metal electrode 112 ( Figure 2 , Figure 9 ) and an invalid touch driving transparent electrode 122 ([[]] Figure 2 , Figure 10 ) which are stacked on top of each other, thereby improving the heating effect and the static elimination effect of the invalid touch driving electrode 141; the touch driving trace 143 includes a first touch driving metal trace 113 ([[]] Figure 9 ); the pad 145 includes a metal pad 115 ([[]] Figure 9 ) and a transparent pad 125 ([[]] Figure 10 ), the transparent pad 125 covers the front surface of the metal pad 115 and covers the metal pad 115, thereby reducing the impedance of the pad 145 and preventing the pad 145 from being corroded. Among them, the touch driving electrode 111, the invalid touch driving metal electrode 112, the first touch driving metal trace 113, and the metal pad 115 are all made of the first metal layer 11, that is, the first metal layer 11 includes the touch driving electrode 111, the invalid touch driving metal electrode 112, the first touch driving metal trace 113, and the metal pad 115; the invalid touch driving transparent electrode 122 and the transparent pad 125 are both made of the transparent conductive layer 12, that is, the transparent conductive layer 12 includes the invalid touch driving transparent electrode 122 and the transparent pad 125. The invalid touch sensing electrode 142 includes the invalid touch sensing metal electrode 132( Figure 3 , Figure 11 ), the touch sensing trace 144 includes the first touch sensing metal trace 134( Figure 3 , Figure 11 ), the touch sensing electrode 131, the invalid touch sensing metal electrode 132, and the first touch sensing metal trace 134 are all made of the second metal layer 13, that is, the second metal layer 13 includes the touch sensing electrode 131, the invalid touch sensing metal electrode 132, and the first touch sensing metal trace 134.

[0044] In this embodiment, a ground wire 148 is further provided on the front surface of the substrate 10(Figure 1 ), one end of the ground wire 148 is connected to the corresponding pad 145. There are two ground wires 148 which are respectively arranged around the edge of the substrate 10. The ground wire 148 is used to apply a ground signal to prevent static electricity from being generated in real time. Among them, the ground wire 148 includes a first metal ground wire 118 ( Figure 9 ) and a second metal ground wire 138 ( Figure 11 ). The first metal ground wire 118 is made of the first metal layer 11, that is, the first metal layer 11 includes a touch driving electrode 111, an invalid touch driving metal electrode 112, a first touch driving metal trace 113, a metal pad 115, a first heating metal signal line 116, a second heating metal signal line 117, and a first metal ground wire 118; the second metal ground wire 138 is made of the second metal layer 13, that is, the second metal layer 13 includes a touch sensing electrode 131, an invalid touch sensing metal electrode 132, a first touch sensing metal trace 134, a third heating metal signal line 136, a fourth heating metal signal line 137, and a second metal ground wire 138.
[0045] In this embodiment, the touch driving electrode 111, the invalid touch driving metal electrode 112, the touch sensing electrode 131, and the invalid touch sensing metal electrode 132 are all in a grid structure, so as to avoid the touch driving electrode 111, the invalid touch driving metal electrode 112, the touch sensing electrode 131, and the invalid touch sensing metal electrode 132 completely blocking the light, and the light for the picture display can pass through.
[0046] Furthermore, the transparent conductive layer 12 includes a transparent electrode block 121 ( Figure 10 ) located in the mesh holes of the touch driving electrode 111.

The transparent electrode block 121 in the area corresponding to the invalid touch sensing metal electrode 132 is conductively connected to the invalid touch sensing metal electrode 132, so as to increase the heating effect and the anti-static effect.
[0047] In this embodiment, as Figure 2 and Figure 8As shown, the invalid touch driving electrode 141 and the invalid touch sensing electrode 142 are conductively connected in the intersecting area, so that the electrical signals of the invalid touch driving electrode 141 and the invalid touch sensing electrode 142 can be conducted to each other. Further, both the first heating signal line 146 and the second heating signal line 147 are conductively connected to one end of the invalid touch sensing electrode 142.

Thus, all the upper ends of the invalid touch sensing electrodes 142 can be connected together by only one first heating signal line 146 and one second heating signal line 147, reducing the wiring difficulty.
[0048] It can be understood that the touch driving electrode 111, the touch sensing electrode 131, the invalid touch driving electrode 141, and the invalid touch sensing electrode 142 are all located in the display area, the touch driving traces 143, the touch sensing trace 144, the first heating signal line 146, the second heating signal line 147, and the ground line 148 are all located in the non-display area at the edge of the display area, and the pad 145 is located in the bonding area within the non-display area. Patterned openings are provided on the first insulating layer 101. Among them, the first heating metal signal line 116, the second heating metal signal line 117, the first metal ground line 118, the transparent electrode block 121, and the invalid touch driving transparent electrode 122 all leak out from the openings, so as to be in contact with the corresponding electrodes or wires in the second metal layer 13 when covering the second metal layer 13, realizing conductive connection.
[0049] This application also provides a driving method for a touch substrate. When driving the touch substrate as described above, the driving method includes: In the heating mode, a heating signal is applied to the invalid touch driving electrode 141 and the invalid touch sensing electrode 142 through the first heating signal line 146 and the second heating signal line 147, so that the invalid touch driving electrode 141 and the invalid touch sensing electrode 142 generate heat. Specifically, the control chip applies a positive voltage to one of the first heating signal line 146 and the second heating signal line 147, and a negative voltage to the other, so that the invalid touch driving electrode 141 and the invalid touch sensing electrode 142 generate heat to heat the touch substrate and the display panel, and improve the response speed of the liquid crystal molecules in the liquid crystal display device.
[0050] In the static elimination mode, a ground signal is applied to the invalid touch driving electrode 141 and the invalid touch sensing electrode 142 through the first heating signal line 146 and the second heating signal line 147, so as to eliminate the static electricity on the touch substrate for the invalid touch driving electrode 141 and the invalid touch sensing electrode 142. Specifically, the control chip applies a ground signal (GND) to the first heating signal line 146 and the second heating signal line 147, so that the invalid touch driving electrode 141 and the invalid touch sensing electrode 142 are grounded to remove the static electricity on the touch substrate and prevent the static electricity from affecting the touch effect and the display screen.

The common electrode 21 can be located above or below the pixel electrode 22 ( Figure 20a as shown in the figure, the common electrode 21 is located below the pixel electrode 22). Preferably, the common electrode 21 is a planar electrode provided on the entire surface, and the pixel electrode 22 is a block electrode provided as a whole in each pixel unit or a slit electrode having a plurality of electrode strips to form a Fringe Field Switching (FFS) mode.

[0068] Those skilled in the art should understand that the remaining structures and working principles of this embodiment are the same as those of Embodiments 1 to 4, and will not be elaborated here.
[0069] [Embodiment 6] Figure 21 is a schematic structural diagram of the touch control display device in Embodiment 6 of the present invention. As Figure 21 shown, the touch control display panel and the touch control display device provided in Embodiment 6 of the present invention are basically the same as the touch control display panel and the touch control display device in Embodiment 5 (Figure 20). The difference is that in this embodiment: The first metal layer 11 covers the front surface of the transparent conductive layer 12, the first insulating layer 101 covers the front surfaces of the first metal layer 11 and the transparent conductive layer 12, the second metal layer 13 covers the front surface of the first insulating layer 101, and the second insulating layer 102 covers the front surface of the second metal layer 13, that is, the transparent conductive layer 12, the first metal layer 11, the first insulating layer 101, the second metal layer 13, and the second insulating layer 102 are sequentially fabricated on the front surface of the substrate 10.
[0070] Figures 22a - 22d is a schematic structural diagram of the manufacturing process of the touch control display panel in Embodiment 6 of the present invention. As Figures 22a - 22d shown, the manufacturing process of the touch control display panel in this embodiment is as follows: As Figure 22aAs shown, an array substrate 20 is provided. On the array substrate 20, a plurality of scan lines (not shown in the figure) and a plurality of data lines (not shown in the figure) are insulated and cross-defined to form a plurality of pixel units. Each pixel unit is provided with a pixel electrode 22 and a thin film transistor (not shown in the figure). The pixel electrode 22 is electrically connected to the data line adjacent to the thin film transistor through the thin film transistor. Among them, the thin film transistor includes a gate, an active layer, a drain, and a source. The gate and the scan line are located on the same layer and are electrically connected. The gate and the active layer are separated by an insulating layer. The source is electrically connected to the data line, and the drain is electrically connected to the pixel electrode 22 through a contact hole. A common electrode 21 is also provided on the array substrate 20. The common electrode 21 and the pixel electrode 22 are located on different layers and are insulated and isolated by an insulating layer. The common electrode 21 can be located above or below the pixel electrode 22 ( Figure 22a as shown in the figure, the common electrode 21 is located below the pixel electrode 22). Preferably, the common electrode 21 is a planar electrode provided on the entire surface, and the pixel electrode 22 is a block electrode provided as a whole in each pixel unit or a slit electrode having a plurality of electrode strips to form a Fringe Field Switching (FFS) mode.
[0071] As Figure 22b shown, a touch control substrate as described above is provided. First, a transparent conductive layer 12 is fabricated on the front surface of the touch control substrate, while the first metal layer 11, the first insulating layer 101, the second metal layer 13, and the second insulating layer 102 are not fabricated for the time being; and a black matrix 15 and a color resist layer 16 are provided on the back surface of the touch control substrate. A plurality of color resist layers 16 are arranged in an array and are spaced apart from each other by the black matrix 15. The color resist layer 16 includes color group materials of red (R), green (G), and blue (B) to respectively correspond to pixels of red, green, and blue colors.
[0072] As Figure 22c shown, a liquid crystal is provided, and then the array substrate 20, the touch control substrate, and the liquid crystal are fabricated into a touch display panel through a cell assembly process. Among them, the liquid crystal preferably uses positive liquid crystal molecules, that is, liquid crystal molecules with positive dielectric anisotropy. In the initial state, the positive liquid crystal molecules in the liquid crystal layer 30 are aligned parallel to the touch control substrate and the array substrate 20, and the alignment directions of the positive liquid crystal molecules on the side close to the touch control substrate and the side close to the array substrate 20 are parallel or antiparallel. Of course, in other embodiments, the liquid crystal layer 30 can also use negative liquid crystal molecules, and the negative liquid crystal molecules in the liquid crystal layer 30 can be aligned perpendicular to the touch control substrate and the array substrate 20, that is, an alignment method similar to the VA display mode.

The pad 145 on the touch control substrate and the array substrate 20 are respectively bonded to a circuit board (FPC).
[0074] Since the touch display panel is usually provided by a supplier, the touch control circuit structure part on the front surface of the touch control substrate needs to be fabricated by oneself. The fabrication of the transparent conductive layer 12 requires a high-temperature annealing process. Performing the high-temperature annealing process after the cell process will damage the liquid crystal layer 30. Therefore, when the supplier fabricates the touch display panel, only the transparent conductive layer 12 needs to be fabricated on the front surface of the touch control substrate first, and then this factory fabricates the first metal layer 11, the first insulating layer 101, the second metal layer 13, and the second insulating layer 102 on the front surface of the touch control substrate after cell formation, so as to facilitate the progress of this touch display panel fabrication project.
