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 It is a structural schematic diagram of an anti-static damage module of a touch FPC in one embodiment of the utility model. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0019] 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.

[0020] See also Figure 1 The present application proposes an anti-static damage module 10 for a touch FPC, comprising: an upper glass plate 100, a lower glass plate 200, a touch FPC assembly 300 and a display FPC assembly 400, the lower glass plate 200 is arranged below the upper glass plate 100, the upper glass plate 100 includes a first end 110 and a second end 120 opposite to the first end 110, the touch FPC assembly 300 is arranged at the second end 120 of the upper glass plate 100, and the display FPC assembly 400 is arranged at the edge of the upper surface of the lower glass plate 200.

[0021] It should be noted that during the electrostatic test, the binding point between the touch FPC assembly 300 and the upper glass plate 100 has a relatively weak anti-static impact capability and is easily damaged by static electricity, causing the smart watch to lose its touch function. In order to prevent the touch FPC assembly 300 from being damaged by static electricity, the upper glass plate 100 is extended so that the binding point between the touch FPC assembly 300 and the upper glass plate 100 is located on the lower surface of the second end 120. With this arrangement, static electricity will hit the upper surface of the second end 120 of the upper glass plate 100, so that the binding point between the touch FPC assembly 300 and the upper glass plate 100 is protected; the touch FPC assembly 300 is arranged at the second end 120 of the upper glass plate 100 and there needs to be enough space, so that the binding position of the touch FPC assembly 300 and the display FPC assembly 400 can be set in different directions.

[0022] Please refer again Figure 1 In one embodiment, the upper glass plate 100 and the lower glass plate 200 are staggeredly connected so that there is sufficient space between the lower surface of the upper glass plate 100 and the upper surface of the lower glass plate 200, so that the touch FPC assembly 300 can be bound to the lower surface of the upper glass plate 100 and the display FPC assembly 400 can be bound to the upper surface of the lower glass plate 200.

[0023] Please refer again Figure 1 In one implementation, the touch FPC assembly 300 includes a touch FPC board 310 and a first ACF glue block 320. The touch FPC board 310 is bound and connected to the second end 120 of the upper glass plate 100 through the first ACF glue block 320. In this embodiment, the first ACF glue block 320 binds and connects the touch FPC board 310 to the second end 120 of the upper glass plate 100 by dispensing, so that an electrical path is formed between the touch FPC board 310 and the wiring of the upper glass plate 100.

[0024] Please refer again Figure 1 In one implementation, the display FPC assembly 400 includes a display FPC board 410 and a second ACF glue block 420. The display FPC board 410 is bound and connected to the lower glass plate 200 through the second ACF glue block 420.

[0025] Please refer again Figure 1 In one embodiment, the anti-static damage module 10 of the touch FPC also includes an optical adhesive layer 500, and the upper glass plate 100 and the lower glass plate 200 are bonded by the optical adhesive layer 500, so that the upper glass plate 100 and the lower glass plate 200 are bonded and have a good light transmission effect.

[0026] Preferably, the optical adhesive layer 500 is an OCA adhesive layer or an OCR adhesive layer.

[0027] Please refer again Figure 1 In one implementation, a first steel sheet 330 is disposed on the side of the touch FPC board 310 away from the first ACF block 320. In this embodiment, the first steel sheet 330 supports the touch FPC board 310 so that the touch FPC board 310 is not easily bent.

[0028] Please refer again Figure 1 In one implementation, a second steel sheet 430 is provided on the side of the display FPC board 410 away from the second ACF glue block 420. In this embodiment, the second steel sheet 430 supports the display FPC board 410 so that the display FPC board 410 is not easily bent.

[0029] Please refer again Figure 1 In one embodiment, the anti-static damage module 10 of the touch FPC also includes a polarizer 600, which is arranged above the upper glass plate 100. Such a configuration can prevent external dust and scratches from invading the upper glass plate 100, thereby protecting the upper glass plate 100. The polarizer 600 can also reduce the reflectivity of the screen by suppressing reflections, thereby reducing eye fatigue when looking at the screen under strong light.

[0030] Please refer again Figure 1 In one embodiment, a touch screen further includes a liquid crystal screen and a backlight assembly, wherein the backlight assembly is disposed below the liquid crystal screen, and an anti-static damage module 10 of a touch FPC is disposed above the liquid crystal screen.
