Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of liquid crystal display modules, and in particular relates to a liquid crystal display module with stable assembly. Background Art

[0002] The existing LCD display module adopts the COB method to package the driver chip. For example, a black and white 128X64 LCD display module is usually driven by one AIP31107 and two AIP31108 driver chips. The driver chip is packaged on the gold-immersed PCBA in the COB method, and then the backlight source and electronic components are welded to the COB board to form a whole. Finally, the COB board and LCD (liquid crystal glass) are placed in the iron frame, and the COB gold finger and LCD conductive electrode are connected by conductive adhesive strips. The COB board is assembled into a finished product with 6 to 8 metal twist feet set on the iron frame.

[0003] This type of LCD module usually has a high cost because it uses more chips. The COB packaging process itself has more assembly steps, complex processes, low production efficiency, and low yield rate. In addition, COB packaging must use a gold-plated board, which requires a large PCB board area. The COB board and the LCD are connected with a conductive rubber strip, which makes the thickness of the entire LCD module larger. At the same time, when the metal twist pin is used to buckle the COB board, the strength of the metal twist pin manually twisted by the assembler is different, resulting in inconsistent compression ratios of the conductive rubber strips. The metal twist pin is very easy to loosen and hang in the air under transportation and vibration conditions. The compression ratio of the conductive rubber strip changes due to aging after long-term use, which can easily cause poor contact between the COB board and the LCD, resulting in quality failures such as light and dark display and missing pixels. In general, the existing LCD modules based on COB packaging generally have the problem of poor assembly stability.

[0004] As a mature chip packaging process, COG chip packaging technology can effectively solve the above problems, but how to apply this technology to design a stable assembly liquid crystal display module is a problem that the prior art urgently needs to solve. Based on this, the prior art urgently needs a liquid crystal display module that can realize stable assembly based on COG packaging. Utility Model Content
