Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to display technology, and more particularly to a method for assembling a display panel. Background Technology

[0002] LED (Light Emitting Diode) displays show various information such as text, graphics, images, animations, and videos by controlling the on / off state of each LED light source in the display module. With the continuous development of LED technology, LED displays are moving from small-pitch to micro-pitch displays. The smaller the LED pitch, the higher the requirements for assembly, meaning a higher requirement for the gaps between the spliced ​​display modules.

[0003] In related technologies, LED displays are generally composed of multiple independent display components seamlessly spliced ​​together vertically and horizontally. Each display component can be composed of multiple display modules spliced ​​together in the same cabinet. The cabinet and display modules are respectively processed by CNC (Computer Numerical Control) and edge-cut.

[0004] However, due to the dimensional tolerances between the display module and the cabinet, the gaps between the multiple display components after splicing are of different sizes, resulting in poor splicing effect and poor stability of the display panel. Summary of the Invention

[0005] This application provides a method for assembling a display panel, which can solve the technical problems in related technologies where the replacement of optical components is difficult, the number of optical components is large, the assembly tolerance is large, and the structural stability of the display panel assembly method is poor.

[0006] This application provides a method for assembling a display panel, including:

[0007] Multiple cabinets and multiple display modules are available;

[0008] A portion of the display modules are installed in one of the housings to form a first combined structure;

[0009] The first combined structure is cut to form a second combined structure; in the second combined structure, the housing and the display module located at the edge of the second combined structure are flush.

[0010] Repeat the process of forming the first combined structure and cutting the first combined structure to form a plurality of the second combined structures;

[0011] Multiple second combination structures are spliced ​​together to form a display panel.

[0012] The display panel assembly method of this application embodiment involves installing a number of display modules into a housing to form a first combined structure, and then cutting it to form a second combined structure, ensuring that the housing and display modules are flush at the edges. Repeating the process of forming and cutting the first combined structure to create multiple second combined structures, and then splicing these structures, ensures that the installation positions of multiple display modules on different housings are relatively accurate, thereby solving the problems of alignment errors and inconsistent seams. Furthermore, the final display panel has more uniform seams and accurate alignment between display modules, reducing wobbling and improving the stability and quality of the display panel.

[0013] In some embodiments of this application, cutting the first combined structure includes:

[0014] The display module is cut at the same time as the housing.

[0015] This design reduces alignment errors caused by inconsistent cutting between the cabinet and display modules, improves the precision and accuracy of cabinet and display module installation, and reduces gaps and friction between display modules, thereby minimizing the possibility of display module wobbling and improving the overall stability of the display panel. Furthermore, this method simplifies the installation process of the cabinet and display modules, reduces the complexity of adjustments and alignment, and improves production efficiency. Finally, this method results in smoother and neater edges on the spliced ​​display panel, enhancing its aesthetic appearance.

[0016] In some embodiments of this application, the first combined structure includes a main body region and an edge region located around the periphery of the main body region.

[0017] Cutting the display module while cutting the housing includes:

[0018] Cut the display module and the housing corresponding to the edge area, and retain the display module and the housing corresponding to the main body area, with the display module and the housing edge flush.

[0019] This setup, by cutting the display modules and cabinets in the corresponding edge areas while retaining those in the main body areas, ensures the display modules are flush with the cabinet edges, improving installation precision and accuracy. Retaining the main body display modules and cabinets while cutting the edge areas helps reduce overall and alignment errors, improving the stability and quality of the display panel. Folding the display modules to the cabinet edges reduces irregular gaps and friction between modules, lowering the likelihood of module wobbling and enhancing overall display panel stability. Precise cutting of the display modules and cabinets simplifies the installation process, reduces the complexity of adjustments and alignment, and improves production efficiency. Maintaining flush edges between the display modules and cabinets results in a smoother, neater edge for the assembled display panel, enhancing its aesthetic appeal.

[0020] In some embodiments of this application, along the extending direction of the display modules, at least a portion of the edges of a number of the combined display modules protrude relative to the housing.

[0021] And / or, multiple second combined structures are identical in size and / or shape.

[0022] With this setup, staff can cut directly without calculations to ensure the display module is flush with the edge of the cabinet. The calculation of the cutting amount is relatively simple, which simplifies the cutting process. It can improve the precision and accuracy of installation, helping to reduce overall and alignment errors. The multiple second-assembly structures are exactly the same size and shape, which can ensure consistency between the individual second-assembly structures, avoid installation instability caused by size and shape differences, reduce alignment errors, and improve the overall stability of the display panel.

[0023] In some embodiments of this application, installing a portion of the display modules within one of the housings to form the first combined structure includes:

[0024] Multiple display modules are installed in one of the housings in a preset order so that the multiple display modules are arranged in close proximity.

[0025] This arrangement, with multiple display modules positioned close together, reduces gaps, increases the stability of the connection between the display modules and the housing, and enhances the strength of the second assembly structure. It also allows for a tight connection, reducing gaps and improving installation stability and accuracy. Furthermore, it helps ensure the display modules remain aligned during installation, minimizing alignment errors and improving the overall stability of the display panel. Additionally, tightly mounting the display modules within a single housing simplifies the assembly process, reduces the complexity of adjustments and alignment, and increases production efficiency.

[0026] In some embodiments of this application, the housing includes a bottom plate and a mounting portion located on the bottom plate;

[0027] After providing the plurality of said enclosures and the plurality of said display modules, and before installing the plurality of said display modules in one of said enclosures in a preset order, the method further includes:

[0028] A driving circuit is provided, the driving circuit being electrically connected to the display module, the driving circuit having a through hole corresponding to the mounting portion, the mounting portion being disposed within the through hole.

[0029] This setup ensures that the cabinet and display modules are aligned at the edges, reducing alignment errors during installation; it also ensures that the installation positions of multiple display modules on different cabinets are relatively accurate, solving the problem of inconsistent seam sizes; the resulting display panel has a more uniform seam, and the display modules are accurately aligned, reducing shaking and improving the stability and quality of the display panel.

[0030] In some embodiments of this application, the mounting portion is movably disposed within the through hole;

[0031] The cutting amount for cutting the first combined structure is greater than the distance between the mounting part and the inner wall of the through hole.

[0032] This configuration, by ensuring that the cutting amount is greater than the distance between the mounting part and the inner wall of the through hole, guarantees that the edge area is completely cut while preserving the main body area during the cutting process. This ensures the accuracy and integrity of the cutting and avoids damage to the mounting part or the inner wall of the through hole caused by accidental cutting, thus guaranteeing integrity. In addition, it ensures that the distance between the mounting part and the inner wall of the through hole is maintained when cutting the edges of the housing and display module, thereby ensuring the accuracy and stability of the assembly. It also reduces the adjustment and correction work after cutting, improves assembly efficiency, and reduces production costs.

[0033] In some embodiments of this application, the dimension between the wall of the through hole and the mounting portion is greater than or equal to 0.01 mm;

[0034] And / or, the dimension between the wall of the through hole and the mounting portion is less than or equal to 1.10 mm.

[0035] This setup ensures that the display modules are installed in relatively accurate positions on the cabinet, reducing alignment errors and improving installation precision; it avoids misalignment issues between display modules in different cabinets, improving the overall appearance quality of the display panel; it reduces the shaking of the display modules, improving the stability of the display panel and reducing the risk of poor display effects or damage caused by instability, thereby improving the stability, quality, and reliability of the display panel.

[0036] In some embodiments of this application, the driving circuit further includes an electrical connector, which is located on the side of the driving circuit closer to the display module relative to the mounting portion;

[0037] The number of electrical connectors is the same as the number of display modules, and they correspond one-to-one.

[0038] This configuration ensures that each display module has a corresponding electrical connector, thereby improving connection stability and reliability; it also simplifies the assembly process, reduces the possibility of assembly errors, and improves production efficiency. Installing the electrical connectors on the side of the drive circuit closer to the display module allows for a more compact and efficient circuit layout, reduces circuit length, lowers signal transmission delay, and improves overall performance.

[0039] In some embodiments of this application, the driving circuit and the display module are movably connected via the electrical connector.

[0040] This configuration allows for more flexible adjustment and alignment of the display module, adapting to display modules of different sizes and shapes, thus improving the flexibility and accuracy of display module installation; it ensures precise alignment between the display module and the drive circuit, reducing alignment errors and improving the stability of the display panel; it simplifies the assembly process, reduces the complexity of adjustment and installation, and improves production efficiency and assembly speed.

[0060] In related technologies, the cabinet is typically die-cast and then individually CNC (Computer Numerical Control) machined, resulting in variations in its length and width dimensions. The display modules are also individually edge-cut, leading to similar variations in their length and width dimensions. When multiple display modules are installed on the cabinet, misalignment between different cabinets can easily occur, resulting in inconsistent seam sizes and potential wobbling of the display modules, leading to poor stability of the display panel.

[0061] In view of this, the assembly method of the display panel according to the embodiments of this application is used to assemble the display panel, including: providing a plurality of cabinets and a plurality of display modules; installing a portion of the display modules in one of the cabinets to form a first combined structure; cutting the first combined structure to form a second combined structure; in the second combined structure, the cabinets and display modules located at the edges of the second combined structure are flush; repeatedly forming the first combined structure and cutting the first combined structure to form a plurality of second combined structures; splicing the plurality of second combined structures to form a display panel.

[0062] The display panel assembly method of this application embodiment involves installing a number of display modules into a housing to form a first combined structure, and then cutting it to form a second combined structure, ensuring that the housing and display modules are flush at the edges. Repeating the process of forming and cutting the first combined structure to create multiple second combined structures, and then splicing these structures, ensures that the installation positions of multiple display modules on different housings are relatively accurate, reducing alignment errors and inconsistent seams. The final display panel has more uniform seams, accurate alignment between display modules, reduced wobbling, and improves the stability and quality of the display panel.

[0070] Reference Figures 1-11 As shown, this application embodiment provides a method for assembling a display panel 10, including:

[0071] The S100 offers multiple cabinets and multiple display modules.

[0072] It is understood that the display panel 10 can be a Mini LED (Mini Light Emitting Diode Display Screen) or a Micro LED (Micro Light Emitting Diode Display Screen) display.

[0073] S200. A number of display modules are installed in one of the boxes to form the first combined structure.

[0074] In some embodiments, a display module 200 may be installed inside a housing 100, that is, a display module 200 and a housing 100 together form a first combined structure 300.

[0075] Reference Figures 1-11As shown, in some embodiments, a single enclosure 100 can house multiple display modules 200, meaning that the enclosure 100 and the multiple display modules 200 together form a first combined structure 300. It should be noted that the number of display modules 200 that can be installed within an enclosure 100 can be arbitrary. For example, 2-4 display modules 200, 3-6 display modules 200, or 5-10 display modules 200 can be installed within an enclosure 100, etc. This application does not limit the specific number of display modules 200 installed within an enclosure 100, nor is it limited to the above examples.

[0076] The following description uses the example of eight display modules 200 installed on one of the housings 100 to form a first combined structure 300.

[0077] It is understood that the display module 200 can be mounted on the housing 100 in any manner. In some embodiments, the display module 200 can be threaded onto the housing 100 using screws, bolts, or other threaded fasteners. In some embodiments, the display module 200 can be bonded to the housing 100 using adhesive. This application does not limit the mounting method of the display module 200 on the housing 100, nor is it limited to the examples described above.

[0078] It should be noted that the mounting configuration between the display module 200 and the housing 100 can be arbitrary. In some embodiments, the display module 200 is located inside the recessed housing 100. In some embodiments, the edge of the display module 200 may protrude from the housing 100. This application does not limit the specific mounting configuration between the display module 200 and the housing 100, nor is it limited to the above examples.

[0079] S300, cut the first combined structure to form the second combined structure; in the second combined structure, the cabinet and the display module located at the edge of the second combined structure are flush.

[0080] It is understood that cutting the first combined structure 300 can refer to cutting any position of the first combined structure 300. For example, cutting the first combined structure 300 can refer to cutting its edge or its center. In this embodiment, cutting the first combined structure 300 refers to cutting its edge to cut the housing 100 and display module 200 located at the edge of the first combined structure 300. After cutting, the first combined structure 300 can form a second combined structure 400, with the housing 100 and display module 200 flush at the edge of the second combined structure 400.

[0081] With the above settings, the edges of the first combined structure 300 can be cut together to form a second combined structure 400 with flush edges. This can avoid the overall error between multiple display modules 200 and the cabinet 100, reduce the shaking of the display panel 10, and help improve the stability and quality of the display panel 10.

[0082] S400, Repeat the formation of the first combined structure and cut the first combined structure to form multiple second combined structures.

[0083] It is understandable that the second combined structure 400 formed by repeatedly forming the first combined structure 300 and cutting the first combined structure 300 may have the same structure or different structure.

[0084] The S500 is assembled with multiple second-group structures to form a display panel.

[0085] In some embodiments, the second combined structure 400 has the same structure, such as the shape of the second combined structure 400 being a cuboid, and multiple second combined structures 400 can be spliced ​​together to form a cuboid-shaped display panel 10.

[0086] In some embodiments, the structures of the second combination structures 400 are not the same, such as a number of second combination structures 400 being interlocked with other numbers of second combination structures 400, and the interlocking of multiple second combination structures 400 can form a display panel 10.

[0087] The embodiments of this application do not limit whether the multiple second combination structures 400 are the same, nor are they limited to the above examples.

[0088] The assembly method of the display panel 10 in this application embodiment involves installing a portion of the display modules 200 within a housing 100 to form a first assembly structure 300, and then cutting it to form a second assembly structure 400, ensuring that the housing 100 and the display modules 200 are flush at the edges. Repeating the formation and cutting of the first assembly structure 300 to form multiple second assembly structures 400, and then splicing these structures, ensures that the installation positions of the multiple display modules 200 on different housings 100 are relatively accurate, thereby solving the problems of alignment errors and inconsistent seams. Furthermore, the final display panel 10 has more uniform seams, and the display modules 200 are accurately aligned, reducing wobbling and improving the stability and quality of the display panel 10.

[0089] In some possible implementations, cutting the first assembly structure 300 includes:

[0090] S310, cuts the display module while cutting the cabinet.

[0091] Understandably, in order to ensure that the tolerance between the cabinet 100 and the display module 200 is small, the display module 200 needs to be cut at the same time when the cabinet 100 is cut, so that the edges of the display module 200 and the cabinet 100 are flush.

[0092] It should be noted that the method of cutting the first combined structure 300 can be arbitrary. In some embodiments, the first combined structure 300 can be cut mechanically, for example, using mechanical equipment such as a saw or a cutting machine to cut the first combined structure 300. In some embodiments, the first structure can be cut by laser cutting, which has high precision and results in a lower surface roughness of the formed second combined structure 400. In some embodiments, the first combined structure 300 can be cut by waterjet cutting, which has a lower probability of thermal deformation, resulting in a lower probability of thermal deformation of the formed second combined structure 400 and a lower surface roughness of the formed second combined structure 400.

[0093] By implementing the above-described design, alignment errors caused by inconsistent cutting between the cabinet 100 and the display module 200 can be reduced. This also improves the precision and accuracy of the installation of the cabinet 100 and display module 200. Furthermore, it reduces gaps and friction between the display modules 200, thereby decreasing the likelihood of wobbling and improving the overall stability of the display panel 10. Additionally, this method simplifies the installation process of the cabinet 100 and display module 200, reducing the complexity of adjustments and alignment, and improving production efficiency. Finally, this method results in a smoother and neater edge for the spliced ​​display panel 10, enhancing its aesthetic appeal.

[0094] Reference Figure 9 As shown, in some possible implementations, the first combined structure 300 includes a main body region 310 and an edge region 320 located around the main body region 310. It can be understood that the main body region 310 is the part corresponding to the second combined structure 400, and the edge region 320 is the part that needs to be cut off.

[0095] It should be noted that the shapes of the main body region 310 and the edge region 320 are related to the combined shape of the housing 100 and the display module 200. In some embodiments, the display module 200 is located inside the recessed housing 100. In this case, the edge region 320 is the periphery of the housing 100 and the display module 200 near the periphery of the housing 100. In some embodiments, the edge of the display module 200 may protrude from the housing 100. In this case, the edge region 320 is the periphery of the housing 100 and the display module 200 near the periphery of the housing 100.

[0096] Cutting the display module 200 simultaneously with the cabinet 100 includes:

[0097] S311. Cut the display module and cabinet in the corresponding edge area, and retain the display module and cabinet in the corresponding main area. The edges of the display module and cabinet are flush.

[0098] By cutting the display module 200 and cabinet 100 in the corresponding edge areas 320 and retaining the display module 200 and cabinet 100 in the corresponding main body area 310, the edges of the display module 200 and cabinet 100 are flush, which improves the precision and accuracy of installation. Retaining the display module 200 and cabinet 100 in the main body area 310 while cutting the edge areas 320 helps reduce overall and alignment errors, improving the stability and quality of the display panel 10. Folding the edges of the display module 200 and cabinet 100 together reduces irregular gaps and friction between the display modules 200, lowering the possibility of shaking and improving the overall stability of the display panel 10. Precise cutting of the display module 200 and cabinet 100 simplifies the installation process, reduces the complexity of adjustment and alignment, and improves production efficiency. Maintaining the edges of the display module 200 and cabinet 100 flush results in a flatter and neater edge for the spliced ​​display panel 10, enhancing its aesthetic appeal.

[0099] In some possible implementations, the multiple second combined structures 400 are identical in size and / or shape.

[0100] In some embodiments, multiple second combined structures 400 are of the same size to facilitate splicing, thereby forming a display panel 10.

[0101] In some embodiments, the plurality of second combined structures 400 have the same shape to facilitate processing, and the plurality of second combined structures 400 can be prepared using the same process.

[0102] In some embodiments, the multiple second combined structures 400 are the same size and shape, which facilitates processing, as the multiple second combined structures 400 can be prepared using the same process; on the other hand, it facilitates splicing to form the display panel 10.

[0103] It should be noted that the shape of the second combined structure 400 can be arbitrary. In some embodiments, the shape of the second combined structure 400 is a cuboid. In some embodiments, the shape of the second combined structure 400 is a cylinder. In some embodiments, the shape of the second combined structure 400 is a triangular prism. The embodiments of this application do not limit the specific shape of the second combined structure 400, nor are they limited to the above examples.

[0104] With the above configuration, the multiple second assembly structures 400 are identical in size and shape, ensuring consistency among them and avoiding installation instability caused by size and shape differences. Since the second assembly structures 400 are identical in size and shape, precise alignment can be easily achieved during installation, reducing alignment errors and improving the overall stability of the display panel 10. The identical size and shape of the second assembly structures 400 reduces adjustment and calibration work during installation, simplifying the installation process and improving production efficiency. The identical size and shape of multiple second assembly structures 400 ensures that the edges of the spliced ​​display panel 10 are flat and neat, enhancing the overall aesthetic appeal.

[0105] Reference Figure 9 As shown, in some possible embodiments, along the extending direction of the display modules 200, at least a portion of the edges of a number of assembled display modules 200 protrude relative to the housing 100. That is, along the outer periphery of the housing 100, there are edges of the display modules 200 protruding from the housing 100. In this case, the operator only needs to cut a portion of the dimensions along the outer periphery of the housing 100 to cut the display modules 200 simultaneously with the housing 100.

[0106] It should be noted that, in order to avoid some display modules 200 not protruding from the cabinet 100 and thus unable to be cut, all display modules 200 near the edge of the cabinet 100 can protrude relative to the cabinet 100. In this case, the part of the display module 200 protruding relative to the cabinet 100 is the edge region 320, and the part of the cabinet 100 that is cut and the display modules 200 that are cut at the same time are both edge regions 320.

[0107] With the above settings, workers can directly cut without calculation to make the edges of the display module 200 flush with the cabinet 100, simplifying the calculation of the cutting amount and streamlining the cutting process. Furthermore, aligning the display module 200 with the cabinet 100 improves installation precision and accuracy, helps reduce overall and alignment errors, minimizes irregular gaps and friction between display modules 200, reduces the likelihood of wobbling, and enhances the overall stability of the display panel 10. Simultaneously, it simplifies the installation process, reduces the complexity of adjustments and alignment, increases production efficiency, and results in smoother, neater edges on the spliced ​​display panel 10, improving its aesthetic appeal.

[0108] In some possible implementations, mounting a portion of the display modules 200 within one of the housings 100 to form a first assembly structure 300 includes:

[0109] S210. Multiple display modules are installed in one of the housings in a preset order so that the multiple display modules are arranged in close proximity.

[0110] In some embodiments, the preset order may refer to the length direction of the housing 100, that is, multiple display modules 200 are installed in the housing 100 along the length direction, so that the multiple display modules 200 are arranged in close contact with each other.

[0111] In some embodiments, the preset order may refer to the width direction of the housing 100, that is, multiple display modules 200 are installed in the housing 100 along the width direction, so that the multiple display modules 200 are arranged in close contact with each other.

[0112] It is understood that during the installation process, the first installed display module 200 can be close to the edge of the cabinet 100 or close to the center of the cabinet 100. The specific position of the first installed display module 200 is not limited in this embodiment of the application, nor is it limited to the above example. That is, the start and end positions of the preset sequence are not limited.

[0113] The following explanation uses the example where the start and end positions of the preset sequence are both close to the edge of the box 100.

[0114] By arranging the multiple display modules 200 in close proximity, gaps are reduced, increasing the stability of the connection between the display modules 200 and the housing 100, and improving the strength of the second assembly structure 400. This tight connection reduces gaps, improves installation stability and accuracy, and helps ensure the display modules 200 remain aligned during installation, reducing alignment errors and improving the overall stability of the display panel 10. Furthermore, tightly mounting the display modules 200 within a single housing 100 simplifies the assembly process, reduces the complexity of adjustment and alignment, and improves production efficiency.

[0115] Reference Figures 3-11 As shown, in some possible embodiments, the housing 100 includes a base plate 110 and a mounting portion 120 located on the base plate 110.

[0116] Understandably, the mounting section 120 can protrude from the base plate 110 for mounting the display module 200.

[0117] In some embodiments, the mounting portion 120 may be a protrusion that protrudes in a direction relative to the base plate 110 and close to the display module 200, and the protrusion is used to abut against the display module 200. When the housing 100 is used to mount multiple display modules 200, the number of protrusions may be multiple, and the multiple protrusions may be arranged at intervals on the base plate 110, and the display module 200 may abut against the end of the protrusion away from the base plate 110.

[0118] In some embodiments, the mounting portion 120 can be a rib, with the protrusion protruding in the direction relative to the base plate 110 and close to the display module 200, and extending along the length or width direction of the housing 100. The rib is used to abut against the display module 200. When the housing 100 is used to mount multiple display modules 200, there can be multiple ribs, which can be staggered, and the display module can be installed at the intersection of the ribs.

[0119] After providing multiple enclosures 100 and multiple display modules 200, and before installing the multiple display modules 200 in one of the enclosures 100 in a preset order, the method further includes:

[0120] S150. A driving circuit is provided, which is electrically connected to the display module. The driving circuit has a through hole corresponding to the mounting part, and the mounting part passes through the through hole.

[0121] It should be noted that the shape of the through hole 510 can be arbitrary. In some embodiments, the through hole 510 is a circular hole. In some embodiments, the through hole 510 is an elliptical hole. In some embodiments, the through hole 510 is a square hole. The embodiments of this application do not limit the specific shape of the through hole 510, nor are they limited to the above examples.

[0122] The following explanation uses the elliptical through hole 510 as an example.

[0123] It is understandable that when the housing 100 is used to install multiple display modules 200, the number of mounting parts 120 can also be multiple. Correspondingly, the driving circuit 500 can also have multiple through holes 510, with each through hole 510 corresponding to a mounting part 120, so that the driving circuit 500 can move relative to the base plate 110 along the surface extension direction of the base plate 110.

[0124] It should be noted that the drive circuit 500 can be directly electrically connected to the display module 200, or it can be indirectly electrically connected through other structures.

[0125] The above settings ensure that the cabinet 100 and the display module 200 are aligned at the edges, reducing alignment errors during installation; they also ensure that the installation positions of multiple display modules 200 on different cabinets 100 are relatively accurate, solving the problem of inconsistent seam sizes; the resulting display panel 10 has a more uniform seam, and the display modules 200 are accurately aligned, which reduces shaking and helps improve the stability and quality of the display panel 10.

[0126] In some possible implementations, the mounting portion 120 is movably disposed within the through hole 510.

[0127] It is understandable that the size of the through hole 510 can be larger than the size of the mounting part 120 along the surface extension direction of the base plate 110, so that the mounting part 120 can be movably installed within the through hole 510.

[0128] With the above-mentioned configuration, the mounting part 120 can be movably positioned within the through hole 510, allowing for more flexible adjustment and alignment of the display module 200. This adapts to display modules 200 of different sizes and shapes, improving the flexibility and accuracy of the display module 200 installation. It also ensures precise alignment between the display module 200 and the drive circuit 500, reducing alignment errors and improving the stability of the display panel 10. Furthermore, it simplifies the assembly process, reduces the complexity of adjustment and installation, and improves production efficiency and assembly speed.

[0129] The cutting amount of the first combined structure 300 is greater than the distance between the mounting part 120 and the inner wall of the through hole 510.

[0130] It is understandable that the cutting amount for cutting the first combined structure 300 can refer to the cutting size required to transform the first combined structure 300 into the second combined structure 400. When cutting the first combined structure 300 means cutting the edges of the housing 100 and the display module 200, the cutting amount refers to the cutting size required to cut the edge area 320 while retaining the main body area 310.

[0131] It should be noted that the distance between the mounting part 120 and the inner wall of the through hole 510 can refer to the maximum distance between the mounting part 120 and the inner wall of the through hole 510. When the display module 200 is located directly above the housing 100 along the thickness direction of the base plate 110, and the edge of the display module 200 does not protrude from the edge of the housing 100, cutting the edge of the first combined structure 300 according to the aforementioned cutting amount can ensure that the display module 200 is cut simultaneously with the housing 100.

[0132] It is understood that the degree to which the cutting amount exceeds the distance between the mounting portion 120 and the inner wall of the through hole 510 can be arbitrary. In some embodiments, the cutting amount may be 0.01mm-0.1mm greater than the distance between the mounting portion 120 and the inner wall of the through hole 510. In some embodiments, the cutting amount may be 0.05mm-0.2mm greater than the distance between the mounting portion 120 and the inner wall of the through hole 510. In some embodiments, the cutting amount may be 0.1mm-0.5mm greater than the distance between the mounting portion 120 and the inner wall of the through hole 510. In some embodiments, the cutting amount may be 0.3mm-1.0mm greater than the distance between the mounting portion 120 and the inner wall of the through hole 510. The embodiments of this application do not limit the specific magnitude of the cutting amount and the distance between the mounting portion 120 and the inner wall of the through hole 510, nor are they limited to the examples described above.

[0133] By ensuring that the cutting amount is greater than the distance between the mounting part 120 and the inner wall of the through hole 510, the edge area 320 can be completely cut and the main body area 310 can be preserved during the cutting process. This ensures the accuracy and integrity of the cutting and avoids damage to the mounting part 120 or the inner wall of the through hole 510 caused by accidental cutting, thus ensuring integrity. In addition, it ensures that the distance between the mounting part 120 and the inner wall of the through hole 510 is maintained when cutting the edges of the housing 100 and the display module 200, thereby ensuring the accuracy and stability of the assembly. It also reduces the adjustment and correction work after cutting, improves assembly efficiency, and reduces production costs.

[0134] In some possible implementations, the dimension between the wall of the through hole 510 and the mounting portion 120 is greater than or equal to 0.01 mm.

[0135] It is understood that the dimension between the wall of the through hole 510 and the mounting portion 120 can be greater than or equal to the first parameter value. The first parameter value can range from 0.01mm to 0.1mm, 0.05mm to 0.2mm, 0.1mm to 0.5mm, 0.3mm to 1.0mm, or 0.8mm to 5.0mm. For example, the first parameter value can be 0.01mm, 0.05mm, 0.1mm, 0.2mm, 0.3mm, 0.5mm, 0.8mm, 1.0mm, 2.0mm, 5.0mm, 10.0mm, etc. This application embodiment does not limit the first parameter value, nor is it limited to the above examples.

[0136] If the distance between the wall of the through hole 510 and the mounting part 120 is less than 0.01 mm, the distance between them is too close, and the movable range of the mounting part 120 is too small. During assembly, the mounting part 120 may not be able to be smoothly inserted into the through hole 510, leading to assembly difficulties. Secondly, forcibly inserting the mounting part 120 into a through hole 510 that is too small may damage the mounting part 120 or the through hole 510, affecting the overall quality and stability of the display panel 10. Furthermore, a through hole 510 that is too small may not ensure accurate alignment between the mounting part 120 and the through hole 510, resulting in inaccurate mounting position of the display module 200 on the housing 100, thus affecting the overall appearance and performance of the display panel 10.

[0137] In some possible implementations, the dimension between the wall of the through hole 510 and the mounting portion 120 is less than or equal to 1.10 mm.

[0138] It is understood that the dimension between the wall of the through hole 510 and the mounting portion 120 can be less than or equal to the second parameter value. The value of the second parameter can range from 0.01mm to 0.1mm, from 0.05mm to 0.2mm, from 0.1mm to 0.5mm, or from 0.3mm to 1.10mm. For example, the first parameter value can be 0.01mm, 0.05mm, 0.1mm, 0.2mm, 0.3mm, 0.5mm, 0.8mm, 1.0mm, 1.1mm, etc. This application embodiment does not limit the value of the second parameter, nor is it limited to the above examples.

[0139] If the distance between the wall of the through-hole 510 and the mounting part 120 is greater than 1.10mm, the mounting part 120 may have a large gap or become loose due to the excessive distance, resulting in insecure assembly. This could cause the display module 200 to loosen or fall off, affecting the stability and safety of the display panel 10. Secondly, an excessively large through-hole 510 may lead to inaccurate alignment between the mounting part 120 and the through-hole 510, preventing the display module 200 from being properly installed on the housing 100, causing inconsistent seams on the display panel 10 and affecting the overall appearance and quality. Furthermore, an excessively large through-hole 510 can cause the display module 200 to be unstablely fixed on the housing 100, making it susceptible to external vibrations and causing wobbling, affecting the stability of the display panel and the user experience.

[0140] By utilizing the aforementioned range, it can be ensured that the installation position of the display module 200 on the cabinet 100 is relatively accurate, reducing alignment errors and improving installation precision; avoiding the problem of misalignment of the display modules 200 between different cabinets 100, improving the overall appearance quality of the display panel 10; reducing the shaking of the display module 200, improving the stability of the display panel 10, reducing the risk of poor display effect or damage due to instability, thereby improving the stability of the display panel 10, and thus improving the quality and reliability of the display panel 10.

[0141] Reference Figures 3-11 As shown, in some possible embodiments, the driving circuit 500 also has an electrical connector 520, which is located on the side of the driving circuit 500 near the display module 200 relative to the mounting portion 120; the number of electrical connectors 520 is the same as the number of display modules 200, and they correspond one-to-one.

[0142] Understandably, the electrical connector 520 can be a socket to ensure a secure connection between the display module 200 and the drive circuit 500, reduce stress or pressure during connection, and help extend the service life of the display panel 10.

[0143] Reference Figure 4As shown, it should be noted that the display module 200 has an interface 210 corresponding to the electrical connector 520.

[0144] The above setup ensures that each display module 200 has a corresponding electrical connector 520 for connection, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the connection; it also simplifies the assembly process, reduces the possibility of assembly errors, and improves production efficiency. Installing the electrical connector 520 on the side of the drive circuit 500 close to the display module 200 allows for a more compact and efficient circuit layout, reduces circuit length, lowers signal transmission delay, and improves overall performance.

[0145] In some possible implementations, the drive circuit 500 is movably connected to the display module 200 via an electrical connector 520.

[0146] Understandably, the electrical connector 520 can be a movable socket. The floating socket is movable or rotatable, and its position or angle can be freely adjusted within a certain range. This makes it easier to align or adjust the display module during installation, ensuring a stable connection and proper positioning. It can also reduce stress or pressure during connection, which helps to extend the service life of the connector.

[0147] Through the above settings, the display module 20 can be adjusted and aligned more flexibly, adapting to display modules of different sizes and shapes, improving the flexibility and accuracy of the installation of the display module 200; it can ensure accurate alignment between the display module 200 and the driving circuit 500, reducing alignment errors and improving the stability of the display panel 10; it can simplify the assembly process, reduce the complexity of adjustment and installation, and improve production efficiency and assembly speed.
