[0033] Screens have gradually become an indispensable part of people's lives. Store guide screens in shopping malls, large screens that scroll train information at train stations and airports, and lighted billboards at bus stations have been deeply embedded in our lives. These screens that appear in public places are collectively called commercial display screens. Among them, LED direct display has become the industry leader with its excellent image quality, bright colors, high contrast and excellent brightness.

[0034] For current direct display all-in-one machines, the exterior panels are mostly made of two sections of aluminum extruded profiles spliced ​​together and a cover plate added in the middle of the two sections of aluminum profiles. The larger the size of the machine, the longer the size of the exterior panel. The joints of the exterior panels cannot be guaranteed to be seamless, and seam differences and step differences are prone to occur, affecting the appearance.

[0035] The utility model provides a panel structure and a display device, aiming to at least solve the problem in the related art that a seam difference and a step difference are easily present between two appearance panels, thus affecting the appearance.

[0036] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 In one embodiment of the utility model, the panel structure 100 includes a panel body 1 and a flexible edge pad 2, at least two of the panel bodies 1 are provided, the panel body 1 has a first side serving as an appearance surface in the thickness direction, and the flexible edge pad 2 is attached to the first side of each of the panel bodies 1 and at least covers an opposite end portion of two adjacent panel bodies 1.

[0037] In the technical solution of the present utility model, the flexible edge pad 2 is attached to the side of each panel body 1 facing outward, that is, as the appearance surface, and the flexible edge pad 2 will cover the end of the panel body 1 facing the other panel body 1. The flexible edge pad 2 is used as the appearance, which can cover the seam difference and step difference between the two panel bodies 1, making the overall appearance more beautiful. At the same time, the flexible edge pad 2 can also play a certain buffering and protective role on the panel body 1.

[0038] The present design does not limit the specific flexible material of the flexible edge pad 2. The flexible edge pad 2 can be an artificial leather pad, a cloth pad, etc.

[0039] The flexible edge pad 2 can only cover the opposite end of the two adjacent panel bodies 1, or it can completely cover the first side of the panel body 1. Of course, if the flexible edge pad 2 only covers part of the panel body 1, it is necessary to set the parts at both ends of the flexible edge pad 2 to gradually decrease to avoid a step difference between the flexible edge pad 2 and the panel body 1.

[0040] It can be understood that the panel structure 100 is shipped to the destination after the panel body 1 is wrapped by the flexible edge pad 2. If the two adjacent panel bodies 1 are fixed, the length or width of the overall panel structure 100 will be too large and difficult to transport. In order to facilitate the transportation of the panel structure 100, in some embodiments, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , each panel body 1 is arranged along the length direction, and the axis extending along the width direction between two adjacent panel bodies 1 can be relatively rotated; or, each panel body 1 is arranged along the width direction, and the axis extending along the length direction between two adjacent panel bodies 1 can be relatively rotated. In this way, when the panel structure 100 is packaged, the two panel bodies 1 can be rotated to be stacked, the length or width of the overall structure will be greatly reduced, and the thickness will only increase a little, which brings great convenience to transportation.

[0041] The number of the panel structures 100 is not limited to two, and can be three or more. As long as two adjacent panel bodies 1 can rotate, the thickness of the panel structure 100 after packaging can be sacrificed a little, and the length or width of the panel structure 100 can be greatly reduced.

[0042] There are many ways to rotatably connect two adjacent panel bodies 1. For example, the two panel bodies 1 can be connected by a hinge. In an embodiment of the utility model, the two adjacent panel bodies 1 are connected by a flexible connector 3 so that the panel bodies 1 can rotate relative to each other. In this way, the panel bodies 1 can rotate relative to each other through the deformable characteristics of the flexible connector 3 itself, which is lower in cost than the hinge form. If the panel body 1 is large enough, resulting in a larger shape error, the panel body 1 often needs to be processed again when the hinge is connected to the panel body 1, which is complex in process and high in cost.

[0043] The present design does not limit the specific material of the flexible connector 3, and it can be polycarbonate, rubber, etc. that have a certain deformation ability.

[0044] There are many ways to connect the flexible connector 3 to the panel body 1, for example, it can be connected to the first side of the panel body 1, it can also be connected to the end of the panel body 1, and of course it can also be connected to the side of the panel body 1 opposite to the first side; for connecting to the end of the panel body 1, since the flexible connector 3 is flexible, it is not easy to be welded or screwed to the panel body 1, and if it is bonded, the flexible connector 3 needs to be modified to be basically the same as the space between the two panel bodies 1, and the process is complicated; for connecting to the side opposite to the first side, there will be a large gap between the two panel bodies 1, resulting in a partial depression in the middle when the flexible edging pad 2 is edging the panel body 1, affecting the overall appearance, of course, the flexible connector 3 can also be set in a stepped shape to fill the space between the two panel bodies 1, but this will cause the thickness of the flexible connector 3 to be larger than that of the panel body 1, which will affect the deformation ability of the flexible connector 3; therefore, in an embodiment of the present utility model, the flexible connector 3 is connected to the first side of the corresponding panel body 1.

[0045] The flexible connector 3 and the panel body 1 can be connected by screws or adhesives. It should be noted that when fixing with screws, countersunk screws are used to prevent the screws from protruding from the flexible connector 3 and affecting the covering of the flexible edging pad 2.

[0046] When the flexible connector 3 is connected to the first side of the panel body 1, the flexible connector 3 will protrude from the panel body 1, which will cause the flexible edge pad 2 to have a step difference in appearance. In order to keep the panel of the flexible edge pad 2 flush, in an embodiment of the utility model, the flexible edge pad 2 covers the flexible connector 3 and is bonded to it; the side of the flexible edge pad 2 facing the panel body 1 is provided with a receiving groove 31 adapted to the flexible connector 3. In this way, by setting the receiving groove 31, the flexible edge pad 2 will not have the problem of partial protrusion when covering the flexible connector 3; it can be understood that the flexible edge pad 2 and the panel body 1 are fixed by adhesive, and the flexible edge pad 2 and the panel body 1 are also fixed by bonding, which is more convenient, and the flatness of the flexible edge pad 2 can be maintained by controlling the thickness of the adhesive. Of course, the receiving groove 31 can also be opened on the first side of the panel body 1, so that the panel body 1 is flush with the flexible connecting member 3 to ensure the flatness of the flexible edge pad 2. However, grooving the panel body 1 will affect the strength and increase the processing cost. It is more economical and quick to open the receiving groove 31 on the flexible edge pad 2.

[0047] In order to facilitate the connection between the flexible connector 3 and the panel body 1, in the embodiment of the utility model, the panel structure 100 further includes a positioning assembly 4, the positioning assembly 4 includes a positioning portion 41 and a positioning matching portion 42 respectively arranged on the flexible connector 3 and the corresponding panel body 1, the positioning portion 41 and the positioning matching portion 42 are adapted to position the flexible connector 3 and the panel body 1. In this way, the flexible connector 3 and the panel body 1 are quickly positioned through the cooperation of the positioning portion 41 and the positioning matching portion 42 to avoid displacement during the fixing process of the flexible connector 3.

[0048] There are many ways to position the positioning portion 41 and the positioning matching portion 42, which can be in the form of a card block and a card slot, or in the form of magnetic matching. In an embodiment of the utility model, one of the positioning portion 41 and the positioning matching portion 42 is set as a positioning protrusion, and the other is set as a positioning hole.

[0049] It can be understood that, since the flexible connector 3 itself can be deformed, it is difficult to maintain the stability of the connection between the two panel bodies 1 during actual use. Therefore, in some embodiments, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4An intermediate panel 5 is arranged between two adjacent panel bodies 1, and the two ends of the intermediate panel 5 are respectively connected to the two panel bodies 1, and are attached to the side of the flexible connector 3 facing the panel body 1; in this way, the two panel bodies 1 can be connected by the intermediate panel 5 to maintain stability, and the intermediate panel 5 can also support the flexible connector 3 to maintain the flatness of the appearance; of course, in order not to affect the transportation of the entire panel structure 100, the intermediate panel 5 is not installed before being transported to the destination, so as not to affect the rotation of the flexible connector 3, and the intermediate panel 5 can be installed after being transported to the destination.

[0050] There are many ways to connect the middle panel 5 and the panel body 1, which can be welding. In this embodiment, the panel structure 100 also includes a pressing sheet 6, which is attached to the side of the middle panel 5 and the panel body 1 away from the flexible connector 3. The pressing sheet 6 is connected to the middle panel 5 and the panel body 1 by screws to connect the middle panel 5 and the panel body 1. In this way, the middle panel 5 and the panel body 1 are pressed and fixed by screws and the pressing sheet 6, and the fixing is convenient, fast and stable; and the fixing by the pressing sheet 6 allows the middle panel 5 to just fill the space between the panel bodies 1. In actual production, the middle panel 5 can use the mold of the panel body 1, and there is no need to manufacture a mold for the middle panel 5, thereby reducing costs.

[0051] The utility model also proposes a display device, which includes a panel structure 100. The specific structure of the panel structure 100 refers to the above embodiment. Since the display device adopts all the technical solutions of all the above embodiments, it has at least all the beneficial effects brought by the technical solutions of the above embodiments, which will not be described one by one here.

[0052] In the technical solution of the present utility model, the flexible edge pad 2 is attached to the side of each panel body 1 facing outward, that is, as the appearance surface, and the flexible edge pad 2 will cover the end of the panel body 1 facing the other panel body 1. The flexible edge pad 2 is used as the appearance, which can cover the seam difference and step difference between the two panel bodies 1, making the overall appearance more beautiful. At the same time, the flexible edge pad 2 can also play a certain buffering and protective role on the panel body 1.
