[0030] The present utility model provides a narrow-bezel liquid crystal display screen with a button function, which includes a lower polarizer, a lower substrate, an upper substrate, an upper polarizer, and a cover plate sequentially stacked from bottom to top. The lower substrate is longer than the upper substrate and extends outward to form a step. A driving IC is bonded to the upper surface of the lower substrate at the step. A first layer of light-shielding ink is provided on the lower surface of the cover plate. A second layer of light-shielding ink is provided on the lower surface of the first layer of light-shielding ink. At least one hollow portion is provided at the first layer of light-shielding ink and the second layer of light-shielding ink. A button pattern ink is provided at each hollow portion.

[0031] Since the button pattern ink and the inductive button silver paste layer are located directly above the driving IC, the position of the non-display area can be very well utilized for layout, without increasing the occupied area of the non-display area, thereby reducing the bezel. The button function is realized by the OUT CTP method, which can minimize the outer dimension of the cover plate, so that the TFT module can achieve a narrow bezel, with a relatively compact and beautiful appearance, and the product has higher competitiveness.
[0032] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the solution of this application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. The present utility model will be described in detail below in conjunction with the drawings and embodiments. The examples of the embodiments are shown in the drawings, where the same or similar reference numerals represent the same or similar elements or elements with the same or similar functions from beginning to end. The embodiments described below by referring to the drawings are exemplary and are intended to explain the present utility model, but should not be construed as a limitation to the present utility model.
[0033] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 , a narrow-bezel liquid crystal display screen with a button function provided by the present utility model, which includes a lower polarizer 1, a lower substrate 2, an upper substrate 3, an upper polarizer 4, and a cover plate 5 sequentially stacked from bottom to top. The lower substrate 2 is longer than the upper substrate 3 and extends outward to form a step. A driving IC 6 is bonded to the upper surface of the lower substrate 2 at the step. A first layer of light-shielding ink 51 is provided on the lower surface of the cover plate 5, and a second layer of light-shielding ink 52 is provided on the lower surface of the first layer of light-shielding ink 51. At least one hollow portion is provided at the first layer of light-shielding ink 51 and the second layer of light-shielding ink 52, and the visible area is also hollowed out. A button pattern ink 53 is provided at each hollow portion. The button pattern ink 53 is white ink or mirror ink. This kind of ink can distinguish the pattern from the cover plate 5 without a backlight source. An inductive button silver paste layer 54 is provided on the lower surfaces of the second layer of light-shielding ink 52 and the button pattern ink 53. In this embodiment, there are multiple hollow portions, and the number of button pattern inks 53 is equal to the number of hollow portions, that is, a button pattern ink 53 is provided at each hollow portion, and then an inductive button silver paste circuit pattern is provided under the multiple button pattern inks 53. A protective layer 55 covers the lower surface of the inductive button silver paste layer 54. The button pattern ink 53 is located directly above the driving IC 6, and the inductive button silver paste layer 54 is connected to an FPC 7. Since the button pattern ink 53 and the inductive button silver paste layer 54 are located directly above the driving IC 6, the position of the non-display area can be very well utilized for layout, without increasing the occupied area of the non-display area, thereby reducing the bezel. The button function is realized by the OUT CTP method, which can minimize the external dimension of the cover plate 5, so that the TFT module can achieve a narrow bezel, and the appearance is relatively compact and beautiful, and the product has higher competitiveness.
[0034] The inductive button silver paste layer 54 can adopt the screen printing process. Design the button function pattern according to the outer shape of the button appearance. The function pattern can adopt the self-capacitance or mutual-capacitance mode; the pattern and the wiring are screen-printed at the same time. The FPC 7 connects the inductive button silver paste layer 54 on the cover plate 5 to the control main board.
[0035] Further, the material of the cover plate 5 is tempered glass, and the thickness of the cover plate 5 is 0.7 mm - 3.0 mm.
[0036] Further, the first layer of light-shielding ink 51 is black ink or white ink.
[0037] Further, the thickness of the part of the first layer of light-shielding ink 51, the second layer of light-shielding ink 52, and the button pattern ink 53 that exceeds the second layer of light-shielding ink 52 is 0.005 mm - 0.015 mm.
[0038] Further, the second layer of light-shielding ink 52 is black ink.
[0039] Further, the edge of the second layer of light-shielding ink 52 at the hollow part extends 0.3 mm - 1.2 mm outward relative to the edge of the first layer of light-shielding ink 51, and the edge of the button pattern ink 53 exceeds the edge of the hollow part of the second layer of light-shielding ink 52 by 0.2 mm - 1.0 mm.
[0040] Further, the material of the protective layer 55 is insulating oil, and the insulating oil adopts a screen printing process to protect the inductive button silver paste layer 54, isolate the inductive button silver paste layer 54 from the air, and improve reliability.
[0041] Please refer to Figures 4 to 6 , as a further optimized solution of Embodiment 1, in this embodiment, a traceability label paper 8 and a shielding paper 9 are provided on the surface of the FPC 7. The traceability label paper 8 is pasted on the surface of the FPC 7, and the shielding paper 9 covers the surface of the FPC 7 and the traceability label paper 8. The shielding paper 9 includes a shielding layer 91, an adhesive layer 92, and a non-adhesive layer 93 that are sequentially stacked from top to bottom. The size and position of the non-adhesive layer 93 correspond to the size and position of the traceability label paper 8, the non-adhesive layer 93 covers the traceability label paper 8, and the adhesive layer 92 covers the surface of the FPC 7. Since the non-adhesive layer 93 is provided at the lowermost layer of the shielding paper 9 and the non-adhesive layer 93 covers the traceability label paper 8, while the adhesive layer 92 covers other areas on the surface of the FPC 7, that is, by adding a non-adhesive non-adhesive layer 93 in the corresponding area of the traceability label paper 8, the adhesiveness of the shielding paper 9 is isolated from the traceability label paper 8, which can avoid the problem that the traceability code on the traceability label paper 8 is easily peeled off due to the adhesiveness of the shielding paper 9 during rework, and improve the traceability of product accessories.
[0042] Further, the thickness of the non-adhesive layer 93 is 0.03 mm - 0.06 mm. The edge of the non-adhesive layer 93 extends 1.5 mm to 3 mm beyond the edge of the traceability label paper 8 to ensure that the non-adhesive layer 93 can still completely cover the traceability label paper 8 in the case of pasting deviation. In addition, the appearance colors of the non-adhesive layer 93 and the shielding layer 91 are different, so that it is easy to distinguish whether the non-adhesive layer 93 is missed pasted with the naked eye, ensuring the consistency of the product. More preferably, the color of the non-adhesive layer 93 is white and the color of the shielding layer 91 is black. Using white and black can better distinguish the non-adhesive layer 93 and the shielding layer 91.
