Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of display screen modules, in particular to a foam and backlight module with an easily identifiable protective film. Background Art

[0002] LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) liquid crystal display screens are widely used in various display products such as automotive, industrial and handheld. The TFT (Thin Film Transistor) screen in the LCD cannot emit light on its own and needs to rely on the backlight to provide light source to realize the display screen. The general display module structure is to have a circle of splicing foam on the inner side of the backlight glue frame groove, which is bonded to the polarizer surface under the TFT, and then fix the TFT in the backlight glue frame groove. A transparent protective film will be attached to the single backlight foam to protect the light-emitting area and the splicing foam adhesive surface. Generally, the cover plate and TFT are first bonded by optical glue to form a TLI component, and then the TLI component is assembled with the backlight. When the TLI component is assembled with the backlight, it is necessary to tear off the transparent protective film of the backlight slot manually or by a robot, but because the protective film is transparent and has no color, it is often missed. Due to the existence of the missed tearing of the protective film, the TFT and the backlight are not bonded, which seriously affects the reliability of the product. Because the untorn protective film is in the backlight slot and is not easy to be found, when such defective products flow into the customer end, it will cause serious customer complaints. If the product is returned for repair because the protective film is not torn off, it will also reduce product production efficiency. The above problems need to be solved urgently.
