Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of electronic products, and in particular to an electronic device and a display screen. Background Art

[0002] Electronic devices such as mobile phones and tablet computers play a very important role in people's daily lives. Electronic devices can be integrated with shooting functions, and people have increasingly higher requirements for the photography effects of electronic devices.

[0003] An electronic device may include a front-facing camera and a rear-facing camera. The front-facing camera is disposed on the display screen of the electronic device. To improve the quality of photos taken in low-light environments, a flash may be disposed near the camera. The front-facing camera and the flash occupy an area on the display screen, reducing the area available for displaying images on the display screen. Therefore, the flash is positioned closer to the front-facing camera to reduce the area occupied by the flash and the front-facing camera on the display screen.

[0004] Light from the flash is transmitted through the display to the camera, which can reduce the camera's shooting quality. Utility Model Content

[0005] The present application provides an electronic device and a display screen, wherein the camera module in the electronic device has good photographic effects.

[0006] A first aspect of an embodiment of the present application provides an electronic device, the electronic device comprising:

[0007] A display screen, the display screen including a non-display area, the non-display area having a first mounting hole, a second mounting hole, and a light-blocking groove, the first mounting hole and the second mounting hole being arranged along a first direction, the light-blocking groove being located between the first mounting hole and the second mounting hole, and the light-blocking groove extending in a direction inclined relative to the first direction;

[0008] A flash module, the flash module is located in the first mounting hole;

[0009] A camera module, the camera module is located in the second mounting hole;

[0010] The light-blocking groove is used to block the light emitted by the flash module from being transmitted to the camera module.

[0011] The electronic device of the embodiment of the present application is provided with a display screen, a flash module and a camera module. The display screen includes a non-display area. The non-display area has a first mounting hole, a second mounting hole and a light-blocking groove. The first mounting hole and the second mounting hole are arranged along a first direction, and the extension direction of the light-blocking groove is inclined relative to the first direction. The flash module is located in the first mounting hole, and the camera module is located in the second mounting hole. The light emitted by the flash module will be reflected at the light-blocking groove when it is transmitted to the light-blocking groove, so that the light path is changed. The light-blocking groove can block the light emitted by the flash module from being transmitted to the camera module. The light-blocking groove is formed by slotting between the first mounting hole and the second mounting hole, and the width of the light-blocking groove can be set to be relatively small. Therefore, the light-blocking groove will not increase the area of ​​the display screen occupied by the non-display area. The light-blocking groove can avoid increasing the area occupied by the non-display area while preventing the light emitted by the flash module from affecting the shooting effect of the camera module, thereby improving the shooting effect of the camera module.

[0012] In some possible embodiments, the light-blocking groove includes a first light-blocking groove, and the angle α between the first light-blocking groove and the first direction is 90° - β, where β is the total reflection angle of the non-display area. By ensuring that the angle α between the first light-blocking groove and the first direction satisfies α = 90° - β, all light propagating in the first direction can be reflected by the first light-blocking groove, thereby further improving the light-blocking effect of the light-blocking groove.

[0013] In some possible implementations, the projection of the first mounting hole along the first direction is within the projection of the first light-blocking groove along the first direction. Thus, all light emitted by the flash module and transmitted along the first direction can be blocked by the first light-blocking groove, further improving the light-blocking effect of the first light-blocking groove.

[0014] In some possible embodiments, there are at least two first light-blocking grooves, the at least two first light-blocking grooves being spaced apart between the first mounting hole and the second mounting hole, and the at least two first light-blocking grooves being staggered along the second direction such that a projection of the first mounting hole along the first direction is within a projection range of the plurality of first light-blocking grooves along the first direction. The first light-blocking grooves can be staggered along the second direction such that the projections of the first light-blocking grooves along the first direction are greater than or equal to the diameter of the first mounting hole, thereby preventing the first light-blocking grooves from being too long and ensuring a better light-blocking effect.

[0015] In some possible embodiments, the non-display area is further provided with a second light-blocking groove, which is arranged on either side of the first light-blocking groove along the first direction and is inclined relative to the first light-blocking groove. By providing the second light-blocking groove inclined relative to the first light-blocking groove, the second light-blocking groove and the first light-blocking groove work together to reflect light emitted by the flash module that is transmitted in the first direction and light that is transmitted in a direction that is angled with the first direction, thereby further improving the light-blocking effect of the light-blocking groove.

[0016] In some possible implementations, the second light-blocking grooves are parallel to each other, or at an angle to each other. The arrangement of the second light-blocking grooves can be set according to the specific light path of the flash module. The arrangement of the second light-blocking grooves is relatively flexible to meet the usage requirements of different electronic devices.

[0017] In some possible implementations, the length of the second light-blocking groove is smaller than that of the first light-blocking groove, thereby improving the light-blocking effect while preventing the second light-blocking groove from occupying a large space in the non-display area.

[0018] In some possible implementations, a light absorbing member is provided in the light-blocking groove, which can also absorb a portion of light transmitted from the substrate in the non-display area to the light-blocking groove, thereby further improving the light-blocking effect of the light-blocking groove.

[0019] In some possible implementations, the light absorbing member is a light absorbing foam that has an interference fit with the light blocking groove. The light absorbing foam is easy to install and does not need to occupy additional space in the non-display area.

[0020] In some possible implementations, the light absorbing member is a light absorbing coating, which is coated on the sidewalls of the light-blocking groove. The light absorbing coating is also relatively simple to dispose, and does not need to occupy additional space in the non-display area.

[0021] In some possible implementations, the display screen includes a display module and a cover plate, wherein the cover plate is disposed on the display module, and the display module includes a display area and a non-display area. The cover plate can protect the display module.

[0022] In some possible implementations, the flash module includes a flash device and a light guide assembly. The light guide assembly is partially located in the first mounting hole, and light emitted by the flash device is transmitted to the cover via the light guide assembly.

[0023] In some possible implementations, the device further includes a housing, the display screen covers the housing, and the flash module and the camera module are both connected to the housing.

[0024] A second aspect of an embodiment of the present application provides a display screen, which includes a non-display area, the non-display area having a first mounting hole, a second mounting hole and a light-blocking groove, the first mounting hole and the second mounting hole being arranged along a first direction, the light-blocking groove being located between the first mounting hole and the second mounting hole, and the extension direction of the light-blocking groove being inclined relative to the first direction; the first mounting hole is used to set a flash module, the second mounting hole is used to set a camera module, and the light-blocking groove is used to block the light emitted by the flash module in the first mounting hole from being transmitted to the camera module in the second mounting hole.

[0025] The display screen of the embodiment of the present application is provided with a first mounting hole, a second mounting hole and a light-blocking groove. The first mounting hole and the second mounting hole are arranged along a first direction, the light-blocking groove is located between the first mounting hole and the second mounting hole, and the extension direction of the light-blocking groove is inclined relative to the first direction. The first mounting hole is used to set a flash module, and the second mounting hole is used to set a camera module. The light emitted by the flash module will be reflected when it is transmitted to the light-blocking groove, so that the light path is changed. The light-blocking groove can block the light emitted by the flash module from being transmitted to the camera module. The light-blocking groove is formed by slotting between the first mounting hole and the second mounting hole, and the width of the light-blocking groove can be set to be smaller. Therefore, the light-blocking groove will not increase the area of ​​the display screen occupied by the non-display area. The light-blocking groove can avoid increasing the area occupied by the non-display area while preventing the light emitted by the flash module from affecting the shooting effect of the camera module, thereby improving the shooting effect of the camera module.

[0026] In some possible embodiments, the light-blocking groove includes a first light-blocking groove, and the angle α between the first light-blocking groove and the first direction is 90° - β, where β is the total reflection angle of the non-display area. By ensuring that the angle α between the first light-blocking groove and the first direction satisfies α = 90° - β, all light propagating in the first direction can be reflected by the first light-blocking groove, thereby further improving the light-blocking effect of the light-blocking groove.

[0027] In some possible implementations, the projection of the first mounting hole along the first direction is within the projection of the first light-blocking groove along the first direction. Thus, all light emitted by the flash module and transmitted along the first direction can be blocked by the first light-blocking groove, further improving the light-blocking effect of the first light-blocking groove.

[0028] In some possible embodiments, there are at least two first light-blocking grooves, at least two of which are spaced apart between the first mounting hole and the second mounting hole, and at least two of which are staggered along the second direction, so that the projection of the first mounting hole along the first direction is within the projection range of the plurality of first light-blocking grooves along the first direction. The first light-blocking grooves can be staggered along the second direction so that the projection size of these first light-blocking grooves along the first direction can be greater than or equal to the diameter of the first mounting hole, which can avoid the length of the first light-blocking grooves being too long and can also make the first light-blocking grooves have a better light-blocking effect.

[0029] In some possible embodiments, the non-display area is further provided with a second light-blocking groove, which is arranged on either side of the first light-blocking groove along the first direction and is inclined relative to the first light-blocking groove. By providing the second light-blocking groove inclined relative to the first light-blocking groove, the second light-blocking groove and the first light-blocking groove work together to reflect light emitted by the flash module that is transmitted in the first direction and light that is transmitted in a direction that is angled with the first direction, thereby further improving the light-blocking effect of the light-blocking groove.

[0030] In some possible implementations, the second light-blocking grooves are parallel to each other, or at an angle to each other. The arrangement of the second light-blocking grooves can be set according to the specific light path of the flash module. The arrangement of the second light-blocking grooves is relatively flexible to meet the usage requirements of different electronic devices.

[0031] In some possible implementations, the length of the second light-blocking groove is smaller than that of the first light-blocking groove, thereby improving the light-blocking effect while preventing the second light-blocking groove from occupying a large space in the non-display area.

[0032] In some possible implementations, a light absorbing member is provided in the light-blocking groove, which can also absorb a portion of light transmitted from the substrate in the non-display area to the light-blocking groove, thereby further improving the light-blocking effect of the light-blocking groove.

[0033] In some possible implementations, the light absorbing member is a light absorbing foam that has an interference fit with the light blocking groove. The light absorbing foam is easy to install and does not need to occupy additional space in the non-display area.

[0034] In some possible implementations, the light absorbing member is a light absorbing coating, which is coated on the sidewalls of the light-blocking groove. The light absorbing coating is also relatively simple to dispose, and does not need to occupy additional space in the non-display area.

[0035] In some possible implementations, the display screen includes a display module and a cover plate, wherein the cover plate is disposed on the display module, and the display module includes a display area and a non-display area. The cover plate can protect the display module. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0075] Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the structure of an electronic device provided in an embodiment of the present application.

[0076] See also Figure 1 As shown, the electronic device 10 is described as a handheld device with wireless communication capabilities. For example, the handheld device with wireless communication capabilities can be a mobile phone. For ease of description, the first direction of the electronic device 10 is defined as the X direction, the second direction is defined as the Y direction, and the third direction is defined as the Z direction.

[0077] Please continue to see Figure 1 As shown, the electronic device 10 includes a display screen 100 and a housing 200. The housing 200 is the main supporting structure of the electronic device 10. The display screen 100 is mounted on the housing 200. The display screen 100 can provide a display interface for the electronic device 10 and an interactive interface with the user. The display screen 100 can be an organic light-emitting diode (OLED) display screen. The display screen 100 can also be a micro organic light-emitting diode (OLED) display screen, a micro organic light-emitting diode (MOLID) display screen, etc.

[0078] Figure 2This is a schematic diagram of an explosion of an electronic device provided in an embodiment of the present application.

[0079] See also Figure 2 As shown, the housing 200 can be a middle frame in an electronic device 10 (such as a mobile phone). The housing 200 includes a middle plate 210 and a frame 220 that are connected to each other. The frame 220 can be a rectangular frame, and the frame 220 is arranged around the peripheral edge of the middle plate 210 and is connected to the peripheral edge of the middle plate 210. The display screen 100 can be covered on the middle plate 210 and connected to the frame 220. Thus, the display screen 100 can form a cavity with the housing 200. The electronic device 10 also includes a flash module 300 and a camera module 400, and the flash module 300 and the camera module 400 can be located in the cavity between the display screen 100 and the housing 200, and connected to the middle plate 210.

[0080] The camera module 400 is used to realize the photographing function of the electronic device 10 . The light emitted by the flash module 300 can illuminate a dark environment to provide fill light in a dark environment, thereby improving the photographing effect of the camera module 400 .

[0081] Continue to see Figure 2 The electronic device 10 may further include a back cover 500. The back cover 500 is disposed on the side of the housing 200 facing away from the display screen 100 and is connected to the frame 220. The back cover 500 and the housing 200 may also form another cavity within the electronic device 10. This cavity may contain components such as a board 600 or a battery. The board 600 may be a circuit board.

[0082] Electronic components may be provided on the board 600. For example, the electronic components may include a processor module, a system on chip (SoC), a storage module, a communication module, a radio frequency module, a charging management module, a power management IC (PMIC), and the like.

[0083] Figure 3 A schematic diagram of the structure of a display screen in an electronic device provided in an embodiment of the present application; Figure 4 This is a schematic cross-sectional view of the display area of ​​the electronic device provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 3 The cover plate 120 is omitted.

[0084] See also Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the display screen 100 includes a display module 110 and a cover plate 120 . The cover plate 120 is covered on the display module 110 . The display module 110 includes a display area 110 a and a non-display area 110 b .

[0085] The display screen 100 may be a rectangular structure, wherein the short side direction of the display screen 100 is the first direction X, the long side direction of the display screen 100 is the second direction Y, and the thickness direction of the display screen 100 is the third direction Z.

[0086] Please continue to see Figure 4 As shown, the display module 110 is the unit that performs the display function in the display screen 100. The display module 110 may include multiple functional layers 110c, which may include a backplane layer, a light-emitting layer, a protective layer, and a touch layer. These functional layers 110c may vary depending on the type of display module 110. The multiple functional layers 110c are bonded together by optical adhesive layers. The functional layers 110c and the optical adhesive layers may be made of translucent or semi-translucent materials.

[0087] The cover plate 120 is disposed over the display module 110 to protect the display module 110. When disposed over the display module 110, the cover plate 120 can be connected to the display module 110 by bonding, hot pressing, or other methods to secure the cover plate 120 to the display module 110. The cover plate 120 can be a light-transmissive plate-like structure to facilitate display by the display module 110. For example, the cover plate 120 can be a transparent glass plate.

[0088] The processor module on the board 600 can be connected to the display module 110 to control the display brightness of the display module 110, reducing power consumption. It can also adjust the display brightness of the display module 110 based on the intensity of the ambient light outside the electronic device 10, allowing the display screen 100 to achieve better display effects and enhance the user experience. The battery is used to power the display module 110, the board 600, and other electronic components.

[0089] Please continue to see Figure 3 As shown, the display area 110a of the display module 110 can display images, and the flash module 300 and the camera module 400 are set in the non-display area 110b. Figure 3 In the embodiment, the non-display area 110b can be a long strip structure extending along the first direction X in the display module 110, and the flash module 300 and the camera module 400 are located in the long strip structure. The distance between the flash module 300 and the camera module 400 is small, thereby reducing the area occupied by the non-display area 110b in the display module 110. It should be noted that the display area 110a and the non-display area 110b of the display module 110 are made of the same substrate, except that the display area 110a displays images, while the non-display area 110b does not display images because it needs to be equipped with the flash module 300 and the camera module 400.

[0090] Figure 5It is a cross-sectional schematic diagram of the non-display area of ​​the display screen of an electronic device in the related art.

[0091] See also Figure 5 As shown, due to tolerances in component processing, there is an installation gap between the flash module 300 and the cover plate 120, and the end surface of the flash module 300 facing the cover plate 120 is uneven. The light emitted by the flash module 300 is scattered between the end surface of the flash module 300 and the gap between the flash module 300 and the cover plate 120. This part of the light passes through the area between the flash module 300 and the camera module 400 in the non-display area 110b and reaches the camera module 400, generating stray light on the camera module 400, making the shooting effect of the camera module 400 poor. Figure 5 In the figure, L1 represents the first transmission path of the light emitted by the flash module 300, and L2 represents the second transmission path of the light obtained when the camera module 400 takes a picture. L3 represents the third transmission path of the light scattered by the end face of the flash module 300 and the gap between the flash module 300 and the cover 120. In the related art, a light-blocking component can be wrapped around the peripheral side of the flash module 300, such as a black sheath that can block light. However, providing a sheath will increase the area occupied by the flash module 300, thereby increasing the area occupied by the non-display area 110b in the display module 110. In addition, it is difficult to fix the sheath. When the position of the sheath is offset, it may block part of the light transmitted along the first transmission path L1, thereby reducing the brightness of the light emitted by the flash module 300.

[0092] Based on this, an embodiment of the present application provides an electronic device and a display screen, wherein the camera module in the electronic device has a good photo-taking effect.

[0093] Figure 6 Schematic diagram of the local structure of the display module in the electronic device provided in the embodiment of the present application Figure 1 , Figure 7 This is a schematic cross-sectional view of the non-display area of ​​the electronic device provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 7 The multi-layer functional layer 110 c in the display module 110 is not shown.

[0094] See also Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the non-display area 110b has a first mounting hole 111, a second mounting hole 112, and a light-blocking groove 113. The first mounting hole 111 and the second mounting hole 112 are arranged along a first direction X. The light-blocking groove 113 is located between the first mounting hole 111 and the second mounting hole 112. The extension direction of the light-blocking groove 113 is inclined relative to the first direction X. The electronic device also includes a flash module 300 and a camera module 400. The flash module 300 is located in the first mounting hole 111, and the camera module 400 is located in the second mounting hole 112. The light-blocking groove 113 is used to prevent light emitted by the flash module 300 from being transmitted to the camera module 400.

[0095] The first mounting hole 111 may be a through hole extending through the display module 110 along the thickness direction of the display module 110. The flash module 300 is mounted in the first mounting hole 111. The diameter of the first mounting hole 111 may be set according to the specific specifications of the flash module 300. Light emitted by the flash module 300 is emitted through the first mounting hole 111 and the cover plate 120 (first transmission path L1).

[0096] The flash module 300 includes a flash device 310 and a light guide assembly 320 . The light guide assembly 320 is partially located in the first mounting hole 111 . Light emitted by the flash device 310 is transmitted to the cover 120 via the light guide assembly 320 .

[0097] Specifically, the flash device 310 includes a flash 311 and a mounting plate 312, which can also be a circuit board. The mounting plate 312 can be electrically connected to the board 600 via a flexible cable. The mounting plate 312 supports the flash 311 and is electrically connected to the mounting plate 312. The processor module in the board 600 is electrically connected to the flash 311 via the flexible cable and the mounting plate 312 to control the flash 311's on and off state.

[0098] The light guide assembly 320 may include a light guide column 321 and a light guide column sealing layer 322 disposed outside the light guide column 321. One end of the light guide assembly 320 faces the display screen 100, and the other end faces the flash device 310. The end of the light guide assembly 320 facing the display screen 100 is located in the first mounting hole 111. Light emitted by the flash device 310 is transmitted to the cover plate 120 via the light guide assembly 320.

[0099] The second mounting hole 112 can also be a through hole extending through the display module 110 along the thickness direction of the display module 110. The camera module 400 is disposed in the second mounting hole 112. The aperture of the second mounting hole 112 can be set according to the specific specifications of the camera module 400. Light emitted from the image in the external environment passes through the cover plate 120 and the second mounting hole 112 (second transmission path L2) and is captured by the camera module 400. The first mounting holes 111 and the second mounting holes 112 are arranged at intervals along the first direction X.

[0100] The light-blocking groove 113 can be a through groove extending through the display module 110 along the thickness direction of the display module 110. The light-blocking groove 113 is disposed between the first mounting hole 111 and the second mounting hole 112. The light-blocking groove 113 is inclined relative to the first direction X, meaning that the extension direction of the light-blocking groove 113 is not parallel to the first direction X and that an angle α is not equal to 90° between the extension direction of the light-blocking groove 113 and the first direction X. The light-blocking groove 113 has two sidewalls: a first sidewall 113a located near the flash module 300 and a second sidewall 113b located near the camera module 400. The first sidewall 113a and the second sidewall 113b are parallel, and both the first sidewall 113a and the second sidewall 113b form an angle α with the first direction X.

[0101] Please continue to see Figure 6 As shown, light emitted by the flash module 300 in the first mounting hole 111 passes through the light-blocking groove 113 when transmitting along the first direction X. Because the light-blocking groove 113 is inclined relative to the first direction X, when the light emitted by the flash module 300 is transmitted along the third transmission path L3 in the non-display area 110b, it will be reflected at the first sidewall 113a, causing the optical path to change. This reflected light will not be transmitted to the camera module 400. In other words, the light-blocking groove 113 can block the third transmission path L3 and prevent the light emitted by the flash module 300 from being transmitted to the camera module 400. This can prevent the light emitted by the flash module 300 from affecting the camera module 400's shooting effect, thereby improving the camera module 400's shooting effect.

[0102] Furthermore, the light-blocking groove 113 is formed by cutting a groove between the first mounting hole 111 and the second mounting hole 112. No additional components are required on the display screen 100. The first sidewall 113a of the light-blocking groove 113 acts as a reflector. Therefore, the width of the first light-blocking groove 113 can be relatively small, eliminating the need to increase the spacing between the first mounting hole 111 and the second mounting hole 112 to accommodate the light-blocking groove 113. Consequently, the area occupied by the non-display area 110b is not increased.

[0103] The electronic device 10 provided in the embodiment of the present application is provided with a display screen 100, a flash module 300, and a camera module 400. The display screen 100 includes a non-display area 110b. The non-display area 110b has a first mounting hole 111, a second mounting hole 112, and a light-blocking groove 113. The first mounting hole 111 and the second mounting hole 112 are arranged along a first direction X, and the extension direction of the light-blocking groove 113 is inclined relative to the first direction X. The flash module 300 is located in the first mounting hole 111, and the camera module 400 is located in the second mounting hole 112. Light emitted by the flash module 300 will be reflected at the light-blocking groove 113 when it is transmitted, causing the optical path to change. The light-blocking groove 113 can prevent the light emitted by the flash module 300 from being transmitted to the camera module 400. Light-blocking groove 113 is formed between first mounting hole 111 and second mounting hole 112, and its width can be set relatively small. Therefore, light-blocking groove 113 does not increase the area of ​​display screen 100 occupied by non-display area 110b. Light-blocking groove 113 can prevent light emitted by flash module 300 from affecting the camera module 400's photographic performance, thereby improving the camera module 400's photographic performance.

[0104] It is understood that in the embodiment of the present application, the order of the flash module 300 and the camera module 400 provided at the first mounting hole 111 and the second mounting hole 112 includes but is not limited to: Figure 6 The camera module 400 is shown on the left side and the flash module 300 is shown on the right side. In some examples, the flash module 300 can be set on the left side and the camera module 400 can be set on the right side. Alternatively, in some examples, the flash module 300 and the camera module 400 can be arranged along the Y direction, for example, the flash module 300 is on the top and the camera module 400 is on the bottom. Alternatively, in some examples, the components set at the first mounting hole 111 and the second mounting hole 112 include but are not limited to the flash module 300 and the camera module 400. For example, a distance sensor and the flash module 300 can also be set at the first mounting hole 111 and the second mounting hole 112. In the embodiment of the present application, the flash module 300 and the camera module 400 are set at the first mounting hole 111 and the second mounting hole 112 as an example for description.

[0105] When light is transmitted from one medium to another, part of the light is emitted at the transmission interface, and another part of the light is refracted at the transmission interface. The refracted part of the light continues to transmit in the other medium.

[0106] Figure 8 Schematic diagram of the light propagation path Figure 1 , Figure 9 Schematic diagram of the light propagation path Figure 2 .

[0107] See also Figure 8 As shown in FIG, when light is transmitted from the optically less dense medium 20 to the optically dense medium 30, the refraction angle β2 becomes smaller relative to the incident angle β1. Figure 9 As shown, when light travels from the optically denser medium 30 to the optically less dense medium 20, the refraction angle β2 increases relative to the incident angle β1. The optically less dense medium refers to the medium with the lower refractive index of the two media, while the optically denser medium refers to the medium with the higher refractive index of the two media. For example, in the display module 110, the substrate of the non-display area 110b is an optically denser medium, while the air in the light-blocking groove 113 is an optically less dense medium, which typically has a refractive index of 1.

[0108] Figure 10 Schematic diagram of the light propagation path Figure 3 .

[0109] See also Figure 10 As shown, in Figure 9 On the basis of the angle of incidence β1, as the angle of refraction β2 gradually increases to 90°, all light transmitted from the optically denser medium 30 to the optically less dense medium 20 is reflected, and no refracted light continues to propagate along the optically less dense medium 20. When the angle of refraction β2 is 90°, the corresponding angle of incidence β1 is the total reflection angle β. This principle is the principle of total reflection of light. The embodiments of the present application utilize this principle of total reflection of light by adjusting the angle between the light-blocking groove 113 and the first direction X so that all light emitted by the flash module 300 and propagating along the first direction X is reflected by the light-blocking groove 113, thereby further increasing the intensity of light that can be blocked by the light-blocking groove 113.

[0110] Specifically, Figure 11 Schematic diagram of the local structure of the display module in the electronic device provided in the embodiment of the present application Figure 2 .

[0111] See also Figure 11 As shown, in a possible implementation, the light-blocking groove 113 includes a first light-blocking groove 1131 , and an included angle α=90−β between the first light-blocking groove 1131 and the first direction X, where β is the total reflection angle of the non-display area 110 b .

[0112] The included angle α between the first light-blocking groove 1131 and the first direction X is adjusted so that the included angle α satisfies the following formula:

[0113] α=90-β

[0114] Here, β is the total reflection angle of the substrate in the non-display area 110 b .

[0115] When the light emitted by the flash module 300 is transmitted along the first direction X in the non-display area 110b to the first side wall 113a of the first light-blocking groove 1131 (that is, the interface between the substrate of the display module 110 and the air in the non-display area 110b), the light is totally reflected on the first side wall 113a, and all the light is reflected through the first side wall 113a, and no refracted light continues to propagate in the first light-blocking groove 1131.

[0116] Therefore, by making the included angle α between the first light-blocking groove 1131 and the first direction X satisfy α=90−β, all light propagating along the first direction X can be reflected by the first light-blocking groove 1131 , thereby further improving the light-blocking effect of the light-blocking groove 113 .

[0117] Figure 12 Schematic diagram of the local structure of the display module in the electronic device provided in the embodiment of the present application Figure 3 .

[0118] See also Figure 12 As shown, the projection of the first mounting hole 111 along the first direction X is located within the projection range of the first light blocking groove 1131 along the first direction X.

[0119] Please continue to see Figure 12 As shown, the diameter of the first mounting hole 111 is D1, and the projection of the first light-blocking groove 1131 along the first direction X is D2. When setting the length of the first light-blocking groove 1131, the projection of the first light-blocking groove 1131 along the first direction X can be greater than or equal to the diameter D1 of the first mounting hole 111. In addition, when setting the first light-blocking groove 1131, the first light-blocking groove 1131 and the first mounting hole 111 are approximately aligned in the first direction. As a result, the projection of the first mounting hole 111 along the first direction X is located within the projection range of the first light-blocking groove 1131 along the first direction X. Therefore, all light emitted by the flash module 300 and transmitted along the first direction X can be blocked by the first light-blocking groove 1131, further improving the light-blocking effect of the first light-blocking groove 1131.

[0120] Figure 13 Schematic diagram of the local structure of the display module in the electronic device provided in the embodiment of the present application Figure 4 , Figure 14 Schematic diagram of the local structure of the display module in the electronic device provided in the embodiment of the present application Figure 5 .

[0121] See also Figure 13 and Figure 14As shown, in another possible embodiment, there are at least two first light-blocking grooves 1131, at least two first light-blocking grooves 1131 are spaced between the first mounting hole 111 and the second mounting hole 112, and at least two first light-blocking grooves 1131 are staggered along the second direction Y, so that the projection of the first mounting hole 111 along the first direction X is located within the projection range of the multiple first light-blocking grooves 1131 along the first direction X.

[0122] When the length of the first light-blocking groove 1131 is too long, the processing difficulty of the first light-blocking groove 1131 increases. The projection size of the first light-blocking groove 1131 along the first direction X can also be smaller than the aperture of the first mounting hole 111. In this case, two first light-blocking grooves 1131 can be provided, or three or more first light-blocking grooves 1131 can be provided. Figure 13 Two first light blocking grooves 1131 are schematically shown in FIG. Figure 14 Three first light-blocking grooves 1131 are schematically shown in FIG.

[0123] The first light-blocking grooves 1131 can be staggered along the second direction Y, so that the projected size D3 of the first light-blocking grooves 1131 along the first direction X can be greater than or equal to the diameter D1 of the first mounting hole 111. Such an arrangement can avoid the length of the first light-blocking grooves 1131 being too long, and can also make the first light-blocking grooves 1131 have a better light-blocking effect.

[0124] Figure 15 Schematic diagram of the local structure of the display module in the electronic device provided in the embodiment of the present application Figure 6 .

[0125] See also Figure 15 As shown, second light-blocking grooves 1132 are further provided on the non-display area 110 b . The second light-blocking grooves 1132 are provided on both sides of the first light-blocking grooves 1131 along the first direction X and are inclined relative to the first light-blocking grooves 1131 .

[0126] Not all of the light emitted by the flash module 300 is transmitted along the first direction X, but a small portion of the light is transmitted along a direction having an angle with the first direction X. This light is transmitted to the camera module 400 through the substrate of the non-display area 110 b.

[0127] Please continue to see Figure 15 As shown, the embodiment of the present application solves this problem by setting a second light-blocking groove 1132. Specifically, multiple second light-blocking grooves 1132 can be set, and the multiple second light-blocking grooves 1132 can be set on both sides of the first light-blocking groove 1131 along the first direction X. Figure 15 , three second light-blocking grooves 1132 are shown. The three second light-blocking grooves 1132 are all inclined relative to the first light-blocking grooves 1131.

[0128] Light emitted by the flash module 300 at an angle to the first direction X is reflected by the second light-blocking groove 1132. By providing the second light-blocking groove 1132 at an angle relative to the first light-blocking groove 1131, the second light-blocking groove 1132 and the first light-blocking groove 1131 work together to reflect light emitted by the flash module 300 that is transmitted along the first direction X and light that is transmitted along a direction that is at an angle to the first direction X. This further improves the light-blocking effect of the light-blocking groove 113.

[0129] The second light-blocking grooves 1132 are parallel to each other, or the second light-blocking grooves 1132 are at an angle to each other.

[0130] The second light-blocking slots 1132 can be parallel to each other or at an angle, as long as they are inclined relative to the first light-blocking slots 1131. The arrangement of the second light-blocking slots 1132 can be set according to the specific light path of the flash module 300. The arrangement of the second light-blocking slots 1132 is relatively flexible to meet the usage requirements of different electronic devices 10.

[0131] The length of the second light-blocking groove 1132 is smaller than that of the first light-blocking groove 1131 .

[0132] When the second light-blocking grooves 1132 are longer, they occupy a larger space within the elongated structure and can also affect the intensity of the non-display area 110b. Therefore, when configuring the second light-blocking grooves 1132, their length is shorter than that of the first light-blocking grooves 1131. This improves the light-blocking effect while preventing the second light-blocking grooves 1132 from occupying a larger space within the non-display area 110b.

[0133] Figure 16 Schematic diagram of the local structure of the display module in the electronic device provided in the embodiment of the present application Figure 7 .exist Figure 16 A first light-blocking groove 1131 and a second light-blocking groove 1132 are shown.

[0134] See also Figure 16 As shown, a light absorbing member 114 is disposed in the light blocking groove 113 .

[0135] A light absorbing member 114 may be provided in the first light-blocking groove 113, or in both the first light-blocking groove 1131 and the second light-blocking groove 1132. The light absorbing member 114 may also absorb a portion of the light transmitted from the substrate in the non-display area 110b to the light-blocking groove 113, thereby further improving the light-blocking effect of the light-blocking groove 113.

[0136] In a possible implementation, the light absorbing member 114 may be a light absorbing foam, which is interference fit with the light blocking groove 113 .

[0137] Specifically, the size of the light-absorbing foam is slightly larger than that of the light-blocking groove 113. When the light-absorbing foam is placed in the light-blocking groove 113, it is compressed. The rebound force of the compressed light-absorbing foam and the sidewalls of the light-blocking groove 113 generate friction, which can fix the light-absorbing foam in the light-blocking groove 113. The light-absorbing foam and the light-blocking groove 113 have an interference fit, and the light-absorbing foam can be installed in the light-blocking groove 113. The light-absorbing foam is simple to install, and does not need to occupy additional space in the non-display area 110b.

[0138] In another possible implementation, the light absorbing element 114 is a light absorbing coating, which is coated on the sidewalls of the light-blocking groove 113 .

[0139] The light absorbing coating only needs to be coated on the first sidewall 113 a of the light blocking groove 113 . Therefore, the arrangement of the light absorbing coating is relatively simple, and the light absorbing coating does not need to occupy additional space in the non-display area 110 b .
