Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of metal mesh technology, specifically to a metal mesh coating structure for low-reflection screens. Background Technology

[0002] As a key component of modern smart devices, watch screens widely adopt high-resolution display technologies such as LCD or OLED to clearly present time, notifications, and health data. However, when used outdoors, the glass material on the screen surface easily reflects ambient light, resulting in strong glare and making it difficult for users to read the content. This glare problem is even more pronounced under direct sunlight, which not only affects the aesthetics but may also lead to operational errors. Therefore, optimizing the screen's anti-reflective performance has become an important direction for improving the user experience.

[0003] In existing technologies, metal meshes are mostly made of pure copper, aluminum, and other materials with low hardness. During installation or later watch maintenance, they are easily scratched by friction, deformed by external pressure, and their mesh structure is damaged, affecting light transmittance. In humid environments, they are also prone to oxidation and corrosion, leading to malfunction of the reflective function and significantly shortening the lifespan. Therefore, this paper proposes a metal mesh coating structure for low-reflection screens. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a metal mesh coating structure for low-reflection screens. By setting a protective layer to protect the metal mesh, the problems of low strength and poor corrosion resistance of the metal mesh are solved.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a metal mesh coating structure for a low-reflection screen, comprising a mounting component, the mounting component including a frame and a metal mesh disposed on the mounting component, and a protective layer disposed on the metal mesh, the protective layer including a DLC diamond-like carbon coating disposed on the metal mesh, the protective layer further including a PVD chromium carbide coating disposed on the DLC diamond-like carbon coating.

[0006] Furthermore, inserts are provided at each of the four corners of the frame.

[0007] With the above solution, the insert is a positioning and fixing component. The insert is integrally formed with the frame and is made of stainless steel. The insert provides a positioning reference during the installation of the metal mesh, prevents the metal mesh from shifting, improves the overall assembly accuracy, and strengthens the structural strength of the four corners of the frame to avoid damage to the metal mesh caused by stress and deformation at the corners.

[0008] Furthermore, hot melt adhesive is applied to both the front and back of the frame.

[0009] The above method involves applying hot melt adhesive to the sides of the frame, which helps to fix the frame in place and prevents it from shifting after installation.

[0010] Furthermore, the metal mesh is made of copper, silver, aluminum, or iron.

[0011] Through the above solutions, different materials are suitable for different application scenarios. Aluminum and iron are low-cost and lightweight, and the overall weight of aluminum and iron materials is reduced, all of which can achieve electromagnetic shielding function.

[0012] Furthermore, the metal mesh is a honeycomb frame, which includes a mesh body with uniformly distributed mesh holes A.

[0013] With the above scheme, mesh A is evenly distributed on the mesh body, which is made of copper, silver, aluminum or iron. The mesh body provides structural support, and mesh A is used for light transmission. The evenly distributed mesh A ensures consistent light transmittance, making the screen display uniform and clear. At the same time, the metallic properties of the mesh body ensure electromagnetic shielding effect and improve the screen's anti-interference ability.

[0014] Furthermore, the metal mesh is a woven mesh frame, which includes multiple warp threads and multiple weft threads. The weft threads and warp threads intersect each other, and the warp threads and weft threads form multiple mesh openings B.

[0015] In the above scheme, the warp and weft threads are metal wires that are interwoven to form mesh B. The warp and weft threads are made of copper, silver, aluminum or iron. The mesh B size is 20-30μm. The interwoven structure enhances the structural stability.

[0016] Furthermore, the size of the mesh A is in the range of 20-30μm.

[0017] With the above solution, the size of mesh A is in the range of 20-30μm. This size allows mesh A to maintain a high aperture ratio while effectively reducing screen reflectivity through light refraction and scattering. The 20-30μm mesh will not affect the screen display details. Combined with the characteristics of the metal mesh material, a balance between light transmittance and low reflection is achieved, improving the screen's visibility under strong light.

[0018] Furthermore, the size of the mesh B is in the range of 20-30μm.

[0019] With the above method, the size of mesh B is in the range of 20-30μm. This size range makes the mesh B mesh uniformly distributed, with high light transmittance and low reflectivity.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0021] This low-reflection screen uses a metal mesh coating structure. The DLC diamond-like carbon coating has high hardness, which can resist friction and scratches, preventing the metal mesh from being scratched, and does not affect the light transmission of mesh A and mesh B. The PVD chromium carbide coating can isolate corrosive media. The DLC diamond-like carbon coating and the PVD chromium carbide coating work together to protect the metal mesh. This utility model solves the problems of low strength and poor corrosion resistance of the metal mesh by setting a protective layer to protect the metal mesh. Attached Figure Description

The insert 102 is integrally formed with the frame 101. The insert 102 is made of stainless steel. The insert 102 provides a positioning reference during the installation of the metal mesh, prevents the metal mesh from shifting, improves the overall assembly accuracy, and strengthens the structural strength of the four corners of the frame 101 to avoid damage to the metal mesh caused by deformation of the edges and corners.

[0036] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 3 Hot melt adhesive 103 is provided on both the front and back of the frame 101. The hot melt adhesive 103 is applied to the sides of the frame 101 to fix the frame 101 and prevent the frame 101 from shifting after installation.

[0037] The metal mesh is made of copper, silver, aluminum, or iron. Different materials are suitable for different application scenarios. Aluminum and iron are lower in cost and lighter, reducing the overall weight, and all can achieve electromagnetic shielding function.

[0038] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 5 It also includes a protective layer 4, which is disposed on the metal mesh. The protective layer 4 includes a DLC diamond-like coating 401, which is disposed on the metal mesh. The protective layer 4 also includes a PVD chromium carbide coating 402, which is disposed on the DLC diamond-like coating 401.

[0039] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The metal mesh is a honeycomb frame 2, which includes a mesh body 201. The mesh body 201 has uniformly distributed mesh holes A202. The mesh holes A202 are evenly distributed on the mesh body 201. The mesh body 201 is made of copper, silver, aluminum or iron. The mesh body 201 provides structural support, and the mesh holes A202 are used for light transmission. The uniformly distributed mesh holes A202 ensure consistent light transmittance, making the screen display uniform and clear. At the same time, the metallic properties of the mesh body 201 ensure electromagnetic shielding effect and improve the screen's anti-interference ability.

[0040] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The A202 mesh size is in the range of 20-30μm. This size allows the A202 mesh to effectively reduce the screen reflectivity through light refraction and scattering while ensuring a high aperture ratio. The 20-30μm mesh size will not affect the screen display details. Combined with the characteristics of the metal mesh material, it achieves a balance between light transmittance and low reflection, improving the screen's visibility under strong light.

[0041] Example 2

[0042] Reference Figures 3-5 This is the second embodiment of the present invention, which is based on the previous embodiment.

[0044] Please see Figure 3 and Figure 4 The warp 301 and weft 302 are metal wires that are interwoven to form mesh B303. The warp 301 and weft 302 are made of copper, silver, aluminum or iron. The mesh size of B303 is 20-30μm. The interwoven structure enhances the structural stability.

[0045] Please see Figure 3 and Figure 4 The mesh size of B303 is in the range of 20-30μm. This range of sizes ensures that the mesh size of B303 is evenly distributed, resulting in high light transmittance and low reflectivity.

[0046] The working principle of the above embodiment is as follows: the DLC diamond-like coating 401 has high hardness, which can resist friction and scratches, prevent the metal mesh from being scratched, and does not affect the light transmission of mesh A202 and mesh B303.

[0047] The PVD chromium carbide coating 402 can isolate corrosive media, and the DLC diamond-like carbon coating 401 and the PVD chromium carbide coating 402 work together to protect the metal mesh. This utility model protects the metal mesh by setting a protective layer, which solves the problems of low strength and poor corrosion resistance of the metal mesh.
