[0032] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the solution of the utility model, the technical solution in the embodiment of the utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiment of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiment is only a part of the embodiment of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiment of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work should fall within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0033] As described in the background technology, with the improvement of living standards, smart wearable devices such as bracelets / watches are becoming more and more common, and product competition is becoming more and more fierce. Consumers are pursuing more and more extreme product thickness, and thin and light design is an inevitable trend for products. The main screen FPC and TP FPC of the display device on the existing wearable products are generally welded with solder, and the thickness is usually 0.3 mm, which is still too thick.
[0034] In order to solve this technical problem, the utility model provides a thin and light display component for wearable devices, including a cover plate 4S, on which a main screen FPC1 (FPC, i.e., flexible circuit board) and a TP FPC2 are provided, and the TP FPC2 is superimposed and connected with the main screen FPC1. The main screen FPC1 includes a main screen FPC body 10, on which a pair of main screen positioning holes 11 are provided, and a main screen binding area 12 is provided on the main screen FPC body 10, and a plurality of main screen binding gold fingers 121 are provided on the main screen binding area 12. The TP FPC2 includes a TP FPC body 20, on which a pair of TP positioning holes 21 are provided, and a TP binding area 22 is provided on the TP FPC body 20, and a plurality of TP binding gold fingers 221 are provided on the TP binding area 22. The position of the TP positioning hole 21 corresponds to the main screen positioning hole 11 , the position of the TP binding area 22 corresponds to the main screen binding area 12 , and the TP binding gold finger 221 is bound to the main screen binding gold finger 121 through an ACF layer (ACF, i.e. anisotropic conductive film) 3 .
[0035] Through the above structural design, since the TP binding gold finger 221 and the main screen binding gold finger 121 are bound through the ACF layer 3, the maximum thickness can be controlled at 0.1 mm compared to the maximum thickness of 0.3 mm of the conventional solder connection solution. Therefore, the thickness can be reduced by 0.2 mm, effectively reducing the overall stacking thickness of the module, making the overall machine design lighter and thinner, which is particularly suitable for use on wearable devices.
[0036] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, so that the advantages and features of the present invention can be more easily understood by those skilled in the art, thereby making a clearer and more definite definition of the protection scope of the present invention.
[0037] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments of the present invention and the features and technical solutions in the embodiments may be combined with each other.
[0038] It should be noted that similar reference numerals and letters denote similar items in the following drawings, and therefore, once an item is defined in one drawing, further definition and explanation thereof is not required in subsequent drawings.
[0039] like Figure 1 As shown, the thin and light display assembly for wearable devices includes a cover plate 4S, on which a main screen FPC1 (FPC, i.e., flexible circuit board) and a TP FPC2 are provided, and the TP FPC2 is superimposed and connected with the main screen FPC1.
[0040] like Figure 2 As shown, the main screen FPC1 includes a main screen FPC body 10, a pair of main screen positioning holes 11 are provided on the main screen FPC body 10, a main screen binding area 12 is provided on the main screen FPC body 10, and a plurality of main screen binding gold fingers 121 are provided on the main screen binding area 12.
[0041] like Figure 3 As shown, the TP FPC 2 includes a TP FPC body 20 , a pair of TP positioning holes 21 are disposed on the TP FPC body 20 , a TP binding area 22 is disposed on the TP FPC body 20 , and a plurality of TP binding gold fingers 221 are disposed on the TP binding area 22 .
[0042] It should be noted that the position of the TP positioning hole 21 corresponds to the main screen positioning hole 11, the position of the TP binding area 22 corresponds to the main screen binding area 12, and the TP binding gold finger 221 is bound to the main screen binding gold finger 121 through an ACF layer (ACF, i.e., anisotropic conductive film) 3.
[0043] In addition, conductive gold balls 31 are disposed in the ACF layer 3 .
[0044] The spacing between the main screen binding gold fingers 121 is 0.7 mm, and the spacing between the TP binding gold fingers 221 is 0.7 mm.
[0045] It should be noted that the position of the TP positioning hole 21 is matched with the main screen positioning hole 11 through a positioning pin. The position of the TP positioning hole 21 and the main screen positioning hole 11 are both round holes.
[0046] The working mode of this embodiment is described below.
[0047] By using the position of the TP positioning hole 21 and the main screen positioning hole 11, the binding fixture can be aligned by fitting the positioning pins on the FPC. The ACF layer 3 (usually with a thickness of less than 25.4um) is used as a conductive medium between the two gold fingers on the FPC, namely the main screen binding gold finger 121 and the TP binding gold finger 221. Through the hot pressing binding process, the conductive gold ball 31 in the ACF layer 3 is exploded, so that the upper / lower FPC gold fingers are connected through the conductive gold ball 31.
[0048] Since the TP binding gold finger 221 and the main screen binding gold finger 121 are bound through the ACF layer 3, the maximum thickness can be controlled at 0.1 mm compared to the maximum thickness of 0.3 mm of the conventional solder connection solution. Therefore, the thickness can be reduced by 0.2 mm, effectively reducing the overall stacking thickness of the module, making the overall design of the machine lighter and thinner, which is particularly suitable for use on wearable devices.
[0049] The thin and light display assembly for wearable devices provided in Example 1 is further optimized. Specifically, the position of the TP positioning hole 21 and the main screen positioning hole 11 are both square holes.

[0051] By using the position of the TP positioning hole 21 and the main screen positioning hole 11, the binding fixture can be aligned by fitting the positioning pins into the alignment holes on the FPC. Since the position of the TP positioning hole 21 and the main screen positioning hole 11 are both square holes, the FPC can be positioned and the FPC can be effectively prevented from rotating at will.
[0052] The thin and light display assembly for wearable devices provided in Example 1 or 2 is further optimized. Specifically, an insulating paper 4 is attached to both the main screen binding area 12 and the TP binding area 22 .
[0053] It should be noted that the insulating paper 4 is yellow. In addition, an anti-slip grid pattern 41 is provided on the insulating paper 4. The area of the insulating paper 4 is larger than the main screen binding area 12 and the TP binding area 22. The thickness of the insulating paper 4 is 0.05 mm.
[0054] The working mode of this embodiment is described below.
[0055] By applying the insulating paper 4 , it is possible to effectively prevent foreign matter from contaminating the ACF layer 3 at the binding position, or prevent water vapor from entering the binding position and causing the ACF layer 3 to fail.
[0056] The terms "coupling" and "coupling" involved in the embodiments of the present application should be understood in a broad sense. For example, they may refer to a direct physical connection, or an indirect connection achieved through electronic devices, such as a connection achieved through resistors, inductors, capacitors or other electronic devices.
