BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0017] In order to more clearly illustrate the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present utility model, the drawings required for use in the embodiments are briefly introduced below.

[0018] Figure 1 This is a front view schematic diagram of an optical fingerprint module FPC connection structure in one embodiment of the utility model;

[0019] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the reverse side of an optical fingerprint module FPC connection structure in one embodiment of the utility model; DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0020] In order to facilitate the understanding of the present invention, the present invention will be described more comprehensively below with reference to the relevant drawings.

[0021] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 The present application proposes an optical fingerprint module FPC connection structure 10, including an FPC board 100, a lens assembly 200 and a connector 300. The FPC board 100 is provided with a front mounting area 110 and a back mounting area 120. The lens assembly 200 and the connector 300 are respectively arranged on the front mounting area 110. The back mounting area 120 is provided with a first reinforcement plate 121 and a second reinforcement plate 122. The first reinforcement plate 121 is aligned with the lens assembly 200, and the second reinforcement plate 122 is aligned with the connector 300. A first reinforcement adhesive layer 210 is arranged below the lens assembly 200, and a second reinforcement adhesive layer 123 is arranged above the second reinforcement plate 122.

[0022] It should be noted that during the reliability test and assembly of the optical fingerprint module, the FPC board 100 may be bent in various ways, which may easily cause damage to the FPC board 100. In particular, when the FPC board 100 is bent, the friction at the edges of the first reinforcement plate 121 and the second reinforcement plate 122 may easily cause the FPC board 100 to crack, resulting in the rupture of the communication line and the loss of module function. Therefore, a first reinforcement glue layer 210 is provided below the lens assembly 200 and a second reinforcement glue layer 123 is provided above the second reinforcement plate 122, thereby protecting the bending positions of the first reinforcement plate 121 and the second reinforcement plate 122, and preventing small-angle bending from causing line damage to the line outlet position of the lens assembly 200 and the line inlet position of the connector 300, thereby improving the bending resistance of the FPC board 100 and extending its service life.

[0023] Please refer again Figure 1 and Figure 2 In one embodiment, the first reinforcing adhesive layer 210 and the second reinforcing adhesive layer 123 are naturally cured adhesive layers. The naturally cured adhesive has corrosion resistance and wear resistance, which further improves the protective effect of the first reinforcing adhesive layer 210 and the second reinforcing adhesive layer 123.

[0024] See also Figure 2 In one embodiment, the first reinforcing plate 121 and the FPC board 100 are connected by adhesive, and the second reinforcing plate 122 and the FPC board 100 are connected by adhesive. Such a configuration can make the first reinforcing plate 121 and the second reinforcing plate 122 more firmly arranged on the FPC board 100, avoiding the first reinforcing plate 121 and the second reinforcing plate 122 from shifting and increasing the bending range.

[0025] Please refer again Figure 1 and Figure 2 In one embodiment, the first reinforcement plate 121 and the second reinforcement plate 122 are arranged relatively parallel. Preferably, the lens assembly 200 and the connector 300 are arranged to be electrically connected with the FPC board 100, so that the optical fingerprint module FPC connection structure 10 is more compact.

[0026] Please refer again Figure 2 In one embodiment, a first snap-in 121a and a second snap-in 121b are respectively provided on both sides of the first reinforcing plate 121, the first snap-in 121a and the second snap-in 121b are aligned, and a third snap-in 122a is provided below the second reinforcing plate 122. With this arrangement, the connection between the FPC board 100 and other components is more stable.

[0027] Preferably, the first reinforcement plate 121 and the second reinforcement plate 122 are steel plates.

[0028] Please refer again Figure 2, a laser engraving area 124 is set on the second reinforcement plate.

[0029] It should be noted that in order to facilitate the later data analysis and defect tracing of the optical fingerprint module, it is necessary to laser engrave a traceable QR code on the FPC connection structure 10 of the optical fingerprint module. During the laser engraving process, high temperature is generated, which can easily cause deformation of the reinforcing steel plate, causing the center position to bulge and a 10um to 15um warping of the center relative to the four corners. If the QR code is laser engraved on the first reinforcing plate 121, according to the normal production process parameter requirements, the distance between the lens center of the produced optical fingerprint module and the chip is simultaneously shortened by 10um to 15um, resulting in a decrease in the resolution of the optical fingerprint module and 20% to 30% defect loss. Therefore, a laser engraving area 124 is set on the second reinforcing plate 122, and a QR code is laser engraved on the laser engraving area 124. While meeting the QR code traceability requirements, the decrease in the resolution of the optical fingerprint module is avoided.

[0030] The above-mentioned embodiments only express several implementation methods of the utility model, and the description is relatively specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this field, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the utility model, which all belong to the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model patent shall be based on the attached claims.
