Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of display technology, and more particularly to a display device. Background Technology
[0002] With the increasing prevalence of display devices (such as televisions), their functions are no longer limited to displaying images. They can also enable video calls via television by adding camera modules. However, the addition of cameras can be remotely hacked and controlled by criminals, leading to privacy breaches. Users often cover the front of the camera with tissues or cloth strips to obscure it, which affects both the user experience and the aesthetics of the display device.
[0003] In related technologies, a cover is typically placed in front of the camera, with a toggle switch used to adjust the movement of the cover to either obscure or open the camera. However, to provide sufficient space for the toggle switch, the non-display space where the camera is located needs to be increased, resulting in a decrease in the screen-to-body ratio of the display device. Utility Model Content
[0004] This application discloses a display device that can effectively increase the screen-to-body ratio of the display device while ensuring its privacy protection function and aesthetic appearance.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, embodiments of this application disclose a display device, including:
[0006] The display panel has a first through hole along the edge of the display side opening;
[0007] A backlight module is disposed on the backlight side of the display panel and is used to support the display panel.
[0008] A middle frame, which surrounds and connects to the edge of the display panel, and the middle frame and the display panel together form a mounting cavity, with the first through hole communicating with the mounting cavity;
[0009] A camera module, wherein the camera module is disposed in the mounting cavity and located at the top of the display panel along its height direction, the camera module comprising:
[0010] The mounting bracket is installed in the mounting cavity, and the mounting bracket is provided with a first clearance hole that corresponds to and communicates with the first through hole;
[0011] A camera, wherein the camera is installed in the mounting bracket and the light-inlet end of the camera is set corresponding to the first clearance hole;
[0012] A shielding member is configured to be movably disposed on the mounting bracket along the width direction of the display panel to shield or open the first clearance hole;
[0013] A toggle element, one end of which is connected to the blocking element;
[0014] The top of the middle frame is provided with a second through hole that communicates with the mounting cavity along the height direction of the display panel. At least part of the other end of the toggle member extends out from the second through hole. The toggle member is configured to be toggled to drive the blocking member to move along the width direction of the display panel.
[0015] By providing a first through-hole opening on the display side of the display panel at its edge, and a first clearance hole communicating with the first through-hole on the mounting bracket, with the light-inlet end of the camera corresponding to the first clearance hole, the camera can receive light through the first through-hole, allowing the light-inlet end of the camera to face the display side of the display panel. Furthermore, a shielding member is configured to be movably mounted on the mounting bracket along the width direction of the display panel to shield or open the first clearance hole. This achieves privacy protection for the camera on the display device while maintaining its aesthetic appearance. Further, a second through-hole communicating with the mounting cavity along the height direction of the display panel is provided at the top of the mid-frame. One end of a toggle member is connected to the shielding member, and the other end of the toggle member extends at least partially from the second through-hole. The toggle member is configured to be toggled to move the shielding member along the width direction of the display panel. By utilizing the top space of the mid-frame to mount the toggle member, sufficient space is provided for its placement without occupying display space on the display panel, effectively increasing the screen-to-body ratio of the display device.
[0016] In some embodiments of this application, the camera module includes:
[0017] A spring-loaded structure is provided on the mounting bracket, and one end of the actuating member connected to the blocking member is slidably abutted against the spring-loaded structure.
[0018] The spring-loaded structure has a first abutment position and a second abutment position;
[0019] When the actuating member slides along the width direction of the display device on the spring structure to at least partially occupy the first abutment position, the blocking member is configured to block the first clearance hole;
[0020] When the toggle member slides along the width direction of the display device on the spring structure to at least partially occupy the second abutment position, the blocking member is configured to open the first clearance hole.
[0021] By designing a spring-loaded structure with a first and second abutment positions, the actuating component can be accurately positioned during sliding, enabling reliable blocking or opening of the first clearance hole by the blocking component. When the actuating component slides to the first abutment position, the first elastic protrusion provides a certain degree of limitation and fixation, preventing the actuating component from deviating from its position due to accidental shaking. This ensures that the blocking component stably blocks the first clearance hole, effectively protecting the camera from external prying eyes and safeguarding user privacy. When the actuating component slides to the second abutment position, the second elastic protrusion also provides limitation and fixation, allowing the blocking component to accurately open the first clearance hole, enabling the camera to function normally and achieve video calls and monitoring functions. Moreover, the spring-loaded structure provides elastic feedback to the actuating component during sliding, allowing users to judge whether the actuating component has slid into place by feel, improving the convenience and accuracy of operation. In addition, this spring-loaded structure design is relatively simple and low-cost, which helps reduce the overall manufacturing cost of the display device while ensuring structural stability and reliability, extending the lifespan of the display device.
[0022] In some embodiments of this application, a first elastic protrusion is formed on the first abutment, and a first recess is formed at one end of the actuating member. When the actuating member slides to the point where the first recess engages with the first elastic protrusion, the blocking member is configured to block the first clearance hole.
[0023] A second elastic protrusion is formed on the second abutment, and a second recess is formed at one end of the actuating member. When the actuating member slides to the second recess and engages with the second elastic protrusion, the blocking member is configured to open the first clearance hole.
[0024] By forming a first elastic protrusion at the first abutment position and a first recess on the actuating component, when the actuating component slides to the first recess and engages with the first elastic protrusion, the elastic force generated between them ensures that the actuating component remains firmly in the first abutment position. This allows the blocking component to continuously and reliably block the first clearance hole, providing robust privacy protection for the camera. Similarly, a second elastic protrusion is provided at the second abutment position, and a second recess is provided at one end of the actuating component. When the actuating component slides to the second recess and engages with the second elastic protrusion, it also ensures that the actuating component is accurately positioned at the second abutment position, allowing the blocking component to accurately open the first clearance hole. This ensures that the camera can receive external light normally, enabling clear image capture and video call functions. This design, which uses the engagement of elastic protrusions and recesses, not only improves the accuracy of the actuating component's positioning but also enhances the stability and durability of the entire camera module structure, effectively preventing malfunctions of the blocking component caused by loosening or displacement of the actuating component.
[0025] In some embodiments of this application, the spring structure includes:
[0026] The first spring-loaded portion has a first abutting position and a second abutting position;
[0027] The second spring is configured to be disposed between the camera and the actuating member, so that the camera elastically abuts against the mounting bracket and aligns the camera with the first clearance hole.
[0028] By setting the spring structure to include a first spring part and a second spring part, the first spring part can achieve precise positioning of the actuating component and reliable operation of the blocking component, while the second spring part provides elastic support for the camera. This allows the camera to be aligned tightly and accurately with the first clearance hole, while also avoiding damage to the camera caused by rigid support force. This effectively ensures the normal operation of the camera's light-intake end, thereby improving the camera's service life.
[0029] In some embodiments of this application, the second spring sheet is bent and connected to one side of the first spring sheet, and a force-relieving groove is provided at the connection between the first spring sheet and the second spring sheet;
[0030] The projection of the first abutment position along the thickness direction of the display panel is located within the projection range of the force-relieving groove along the thickness direction of the display panel; and / or,
[0031] The projection of the second abutment position along the thickness direction of the display panel is located within the projection range of the force relief groove along the thickness direction of the display panel.
[0032] By incorporating a second spring section bent and connected to one side of the first spring section, and by making the second and first spring sections integrally molded, the manufacturing process of the spring structure is simplified, reducing manufacturing costs, and enhancing the overall strength and stability of the spring structure. Furthermore, the stress-relieving groove at the connection point between the first and second spring sections effectively releases the stress generated by the second spring section during the elastic support of the camera, preventing stress concentration that could lead to deformation or damage to the spring structure. This, in turn, helps extend the service life of the spring structure and ensures the long-term stable operation of the camera module on the display device.
[0033] By setting the relative positions of the first abutment and the stress-relieving groove, the stress-relieving groove can effectively alleviate the stress generated at the first abutment when subjected to force, preventing stress from being transmitted to the surrounding area and causing overall deformation of the spring structure. This ensures the positioning accuracy and stability of the actuating component at the first abutment, thereby ensuring that the blocking effect of the shielding component on the first clearance hole is not affected. When the actuating component is subjected to external force at the first abutment, the stress is dispersed and released at the stress-relieving groove due to its presence, preventing damage to the structure of the first abutment. This allows the first elastic protrusion to continuously and stably engage with the first recess on the actuating component, maintaining the state of the shielding component blocking the first clearance hole and providing reliable privacy protection for the camera.
[0034] Similarly, by setting the relative position of the second abutment position and the force relief groove, the stress generated by the second abutment position when the actuating member slides to the second abutment position can be effectively relieved, ensuring the positioning accuracy and stability of the actuating member at the second abutment position, allowing the blocking member to accurately open the first clearance hole, and enabling the camera to work normally.
[0035] In some embodiments of this application, the mounting bracket is provided with a second clearance hole;
[0036] The shielding component includes:
[0037] A cover plate portion, the cover plate portion being configured to either cover or open the first clearance hole;
[0038] An extension portion extends along the thickness direction of the display panel, and one end of the extension portion is connected to the cover plate portion;
[0039] The actuating element includes:
[0040] A toggle part, at least partially extending from the second through hole;
[0041] The first abutting part has one end connected to the actuating part and the other end abutting with the spring structure.
[0042] The second abutment part has one end connected to the actuating part and forms a first locking part with the first abutment part, and the other end of the second abutment part abuts against the spring structure.
[0043] The other end of the extension extends from the second clearance hole into the mounting bracket and engages with the first locking part, so that the actuating part drives the extension and the cover plate to move along the width direction of the display panel.
[0044] Thus, the extension is movably inserted into the second clearance hole. This design allows the extension to slide smoothly within the second clearance hole as the shield moves along the width of the display panel, providing a stable trajectory for the cover plate to block or open the first clearance hole, ensuring the accuracy and reliability of the shield's movement. Furthermore, the second clearance hole effectively guides and limits the extension, preventing the shield from shifting or wobbling during movement, further improving the stability and durability of the entire camera module structure.
[0045] In some embodiments of this application, a first guide portion protrudes from the outer peripheral edge of the first clearance hole;
[0046] The cover plate is provided with a second guide portion extending along the width direction of the display panel. The second guide portion is guided and connected to the first guide portion to guide the cover plate portion to move along the width direction of the display panel.
[0047] By connecting the first guide portion on the mounting bracket with the second guide portion on the cover plate, precise guidance is provided for the movement of the cover plate, ensuring that it remains aligned with the width of the display panel during movement without shifting or tilting. This guiding connection effectively improves the accuracy of the blocking or opening operation of the first clearance hole, allowing the blocking component to reach the designated position precisely. Simultaneously, the cooperation of the first and second guide portions enhances the stability of the entire camera module structure, reducing potential shaking or noise caused by uneven movement of the blocking component, providing users with a more stable and quieter experience. Moreover, this guiding structure design is relatively simple, easy to manufacture and assemble, and does not significantly increase manufacturing costs or assembly difficulty, thus improving the production efficiency and reducing costs of display devices.
[0048] In some embodiments of this application, a first limiting portion is provided on the outer peripheral edge of the first clearance hole, and the first limiting portion and the first guide portion are respectively located on both sides of the first clearance hole along the width direction of the display panel;
[0049] The second guide portion includes a first inclined surface and a second inclined surface, which are inclined to form a first locking position. The first locking position is configured to be limited to the first limiting portion to restrict the movement of the cover portion along the width direction of the display panel.
[0050] By setting a first limiting part on the outer periphery of the first clearance hole and connecting it with a first locking part formed by the second guide part on the cover plate, the movement range of the cover plate in the width direction of the display panel can be effectively limited. This limiting design can prevent the cover plate from exceeding the predetermined position during movement, ensuring that the blocking member accurately blocks or opens the first clearance hole, and avoiding the normal operation of the camera or the failure of privacy protection due to excessive movement of the cover plate.
[0051] Meanwhile, the inclined surfaces of the first and second slopes not only make the connection between the first locking position and the first limiting part more stable and reliable, but also serve a guiding function. When the cover plate moves to the designated position, the first locking position can tightly engage with the first limiting part, preventing the cover plate from shifting due to external vibration or misoperation, further improving the stability and reliability of the entire camera module structure. It can be understood that the first limiting part is a structure adapted to the second guiding part.
[0052] In some embodiments of this application, the camera includes two cameras, the first clearance hole includes two first clearance holes, the two first clearance holes are spaced apart along the width direction of the display panel, and the two cameras are respectively arranged corresponding to the two first clearance holes;
[0053] The shielding member is provided with a third clearance hole, which divides the shielding member into a first plate portion and a second plate portion.
[0054] When the actuating member is in the first abutting position, the first plate portion is configured to block one of the first clearance holes, and the second plate portion is configured to block the other of the first clearance holes;
[0055] When the actuating member is in the second abutment position, the first plate portion is configured to open one of the first clearance holes, and the third clearance hole is configured to open the first clearance hole corresponding to the other first clearance hole.
[0056] By incorporating two cameras into the camera module, the diverse functional requirements of the display device in different scenarios can be met. For example, one camera can be used for everyday video calls, ensuring clear image transmission; the other camera can be used for specific monitoring scenarios, such as monitoring the surrounding environment of the device. The two first clearance holes are spaced apart along the width of the display panel, and the two cameras are positioned correspondingly. This layout makes the distribution of cameras on the display device more rational, making full use of space while ensuring that each camera has an independent light intake channel, avoiding mutual interference.
[0057] Moreover, this design ensures functionality without excessively increasing structural complexity. The combination of the toggle mechanism and the spring-loaded structure, along with the well-placed third clearance hole on the blocking component, makes the entire camera module easy and reliable to operate. Users can easily block or open both cameras simultaneously with a single toggle operation, effectively enhancing the user experience.
[0058] In some embodiments of this application, the camera module further includes:
[0059] Multiple sensors are mounted in the mounting bracket, and the multiple sensors and the camera are spaced apart along the width direction of the display panel.
[0060] For example, multiple sensors may include, but are not limited to, infrared sensors, voice sensors, light sensors, etc., and the embodiments of this application do not limit this.
[0061] Understandably, infrared sensors can be used to detect remote control commands. When a user operates the remote, the infrared sensor receives the infrared signal emitted by the remote and converts it into an electrical signal, which is then transmitted to the display device's control chip, thus enabling remote control of the display device. Voice sensors can receive user voice commands and convert them into text commands using a built-in voice recognition algorithm, thereby controlling the display device to perform corresponding operations, such as changing channels or adjusting volume. Light sensors can detect the ambient light intensity and automatically adjust the display device's screen brightness according to changes in light to provide a more comfortable viewing experience and also help save energy.
[0062] By mounting multiple sensors on a mounting bracket, on the one hand, the space within the mounting bracket can be fully utilized, effectively saving space in the display device's internal layout and making the overall structure more compact. On the other hand, integrating multiple sensors and cameras on the same mounting bracket and then installing them together on the display device can effectively improve the installation efficiency of the display device and facilitate unified maintenance and management of the sensors and cameras in the future.
[0063] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this application are:
[0064] The display device disclosed in this application has a first through hole on the display side of the display panel, and a mounting bracket with a first clearance hole communicating with the first through hole. The light-inlet end of the camera is positioned corresponding to the first clearance hole, allowing light to enter the camera through the first through hole so that the light-inlet end of the camera faces the display side of the display panel. Furthermore, a shielding member is configured to be movably mounted on the mounting bracket along the width direction of the display panel to shield or open the first clearance hole. This achieves privacy protection for the camera on the display device while maintaining the aesthetic appearance of the display device. Further, a second through hole communicating with the mounting cavity along the height direction of the display panel is provided at the top of the mid-frame. One end of a toggle member is connected to the shielding member, and the other end of the toggle member extends at least partially from the second through hole. The toggle member is configured to be toggled to move the shielding member along the width direction of the display panel. By utilizing the top space of the mid-frame to set the toggle member, sufficient space is provided for its placement without occupying the display space of the display panel, thereby effectively improving the screen-to-body ratio of the display device.

[0095] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0096] In this application, the terms "upper," "lower," "front," "rear," "top," "bottom," "inner," and "outer," etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. These terms are primarily for the purpose of better describing this application and its embodiments, and are not intended to limit the indicated device, element, or component to having a specific orientation, or to be constructed and operated in a specific orientation.
[0097] Furthermore, in addition to indicating location or positional relationship, some of the aforementioned terms may also have other meanings. For example, the term "above" may also be used in some cases to indicate a certain dependency or connection relationship. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of these terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.
[0098] Furthermore, the terms "installation," "setup," "equipped with," "connection," and "linked" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral structure; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, or an internal connection between two devices, components, or parts. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of these terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.
[0099] Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," etc., are primarily used to distinguish different devices, elements, or components (which may be the same or different in specific type and construction), and are not intended to indicate or imply the relative importance or quantity of the indicated devices, elements, or components. Unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more.
[0100] In the description of this application, it should be noted that the singular forms of "a," "an," and "the" may also include the plural forms, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. It should also be understood that terms such as "comprising / including" or "having" specify the presence of the stated features, integrals, steps, operations, components, parts, or combinations thereof, but do not preclude the possibility of the presence or addition of one or more other features, integrals, steps, operations, components, parts, or combinations thereof.
[0101] As the application scope of display devices becomes increasingly widespread, their functions are also showing a diversified development trend. Taking televisions as an example, smart TVs with video calling capabilities have become a trendsetter in the industry. This function relies on a camera module installed inside the television, which enables video calling and monitoring functions based on the television, thereby achieving convenient intelligent interaction.
[0102] In related technologies, to address the balance between camera privacy protection and display device aesthetics, a common approach is to install a movable cover on the front of the camera, along with a toggle switch. This toggle switch is mechanically connected to the cover. Users can manually toggle the switch to precisely adjust the cover's position. When the cover is positioned to cover the camera, it effectively blocks the view, preventing others from spying on the user's privacy. When the camera needs to be used, the cover is removed, opening the camera for normal shooting.
[0103] However, since the toggle switch requires a certain amount of operating space, to ensure that users can easily and smoothly toggle the switch to control the cover, sufficient area needs to be reserved in the non-display space where the camera is located to house the toggle switch. This means increasing the area of the non-display space where the camera is located. Since the overall size of the display device is usually fixed, increasing the non-display space will inevitably compress the display area, thus leading to a decrease in the screen-to-body ratio of the display device.
[0104] In view of this, the display device disclosed in this application can ensure the privacy protection function of the camera on the display device and the aesthetic appearance of the display device, while utilizing the top space of the middle frame to set the toggle, so that the toggle can have sufficient space without occupying the display space of the display panel, thereby effectively improving the screen ratio of the display device.
[0105] The technical solution of this application will be further described below with reference to the embodiments and accompanying drawings.
[0106] Please refer to the following: Figures 1 to 3 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the display device provided in the embodiments of this application. Figure 2 This is one of the exploded views of the display device provided in the embodiments of this application. Figure 3 This is a front view of a display device provided in an embodiment of this application. This application discloses a display device 100, which can be an organic light-emitting diode (OLED) display device, a light-emitting diode (LED) display device, a liquid crystal display (LCD) device, etc. This embodiment does not further limit the type of display device 100.
[0107] The display device 100 may include, but is not limited to, televisions, monitors, tablets, laptops, mobile phones, etc., and can be widely used in homes, offices, conference halls, exhibition halls, stations, hospitals, shopping malls, and other places. In this embodiment, the display device 100 will be used as a television as an example, but it is not limited to this example.
[0108] In some embodiments, the display device 100 includes a display panel 10 for displaying images, and the edge of the display panel 10 is provided with a first through hole 11 that opens along the display side of the display panel 10.
[0109] It is understood that the display panel 10 has an upper and lower side along the height direction Z, a left and right side along the width direction Y, and a front and rear side along the thickness direction X. The side of the display panel 10 facing the user is the front side, and the side of the display panel 10 away from the user is the rear side. When the display panel 10 is in a standing (e.g., placed on a table via a base) or hanging (e.g., hung on a wall via a wall mount) state, the absolute height of the upper side of the display panel 10 is greater than the absolute height of the lower side.
[0110] It is understandable that the extension direction between the top and bottom sides is the height direction Z of the display panel 10, the extension direction between the left and right sides is the width direction Y of the display panel 10, and the extension direction between the front and rear sides is the thickness direction X of the display panel 10. It can be seen that among the width direction Y, thickness direction X, and height direction Z, each pair is perpendicular. That is to say, the width direction Y is perpendicular to the thickness direction X, the width direction Y is perpendicular to the height direction Z, and the thickness direction X is perpendicular to the height direction Z.
[0111] Optionally, the display panel 10 has a backlight side and a display side, which can be understood to be two opposite sides of the display panel 10 along its thickness direction X.
[0112] In some embodiments, the display device 100 includes a backlight module (not shown) for providing a light source for the display panel 10.
[0113] In some embodiments, the backlight module includes a back plate 20, which is disposed on the backlight side of the display panel 10 and serves as the main support member of the display device 100.
[0114] In some embodiments, the backlight module further includes a light source (not shown) and an optical film group (not shown), and the light source, the optical film group, and the display panel 10 are arranged sequentially from the rear side to the front side of the display device 100. The light emitted by the light source is projected onto the display panel 10 after passing through the optical film group, and image information is displayed on the display panel 10 after being processed by the display panel 10.
[0115] In some embodiments, the display device 100 includes a middle frame 30, which surrounds and connects to the edge of the display panel 10, and the middle frame 30 and the display panel 10 surround and form a mounting cavity 30a, and a first through hole 11 communicates with the mounting cavity 30a.
[0116] In some embodiments, the display device 100 includes a camera module 40, which is disposed in the mounting cavity 30a and located at the top of the display panel 10 along its height direction Z. The camera module 40 is used to realize video calling and monitoring functions based on the display device 100.
[0117] Please refer to the following: Figure 1 and Figures 4 to 6 , Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a camera module (with the blocking member configured to block the first clearance hole) provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 5 This is an exploded view of the camera module provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 6 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a camera module (with the shielding member configured to open the first clearance hole) provided in an embodiment of this application. In some embodiments, the camera module 40 includes a mounting bracket 41, which is installed in a mounting cavity 30a. The mounting bracket 41 has a first clearance hole 41a that corresponds to and communicates with the first through hole 11.
[0118] In some embodiments, the camera module 40 includes a camera 42, which is mounted in the mounting bracket 41 and the light-inlet end of the camera 42 is configured to correspond to the first clearance hole 41a.
[0119] In some embodiments, the camera module 40 includes a shield 43, which is configured to be movably disposed on the mounting bracket 41 along the width direction Y of the display panel 10 to shield or open the first clearance hole 41a.
[0120] In some embodiments, the camera module 40 includes a toggle member 44, one end of which is connected to the blocking member 43.
[0121] In some embodiments, the top of the middle frame 30 is provided with a second through hole 31 that communicates with the mounting cavity 30a along the height direction Z of the display panel 10, and the other end of the toggle member 44 extends at least partially from the second through hole 31. The toggle member 44 is configured to be toggled to drive the blocking member 43 to move along the width direction Y of the display panel 10.
[0122] By providing a first through hole 11 opening on the display side of the display panel 10 at its edge, and a first clearance hole 41a communicating with the first through hole 11 in the mounting bracket 41, with the light-inlet end of the camera 42 corresponding to the first clearance hole 41a, the camera 42 can receive light through the first through hole 11, allowing the light-inlet end of the camera 42 to face the display side of the display panel 10. Furthermore, a shielding member 43 is configured to be movably mounted on the mounting bracket 41 along the width direction Y of the display panel 10 to shield or open the first clearance hole 41a. This achieves privacy protection for the camera 42 on the display device 100 while also ensuring the aesthetic appearance of the display device 100. Furthermore, a second through hole 31 is provided on the top of the middle frame 30, communicating with the mounting cavity 30a along the height direction Z of the display panel 10. One end of the toggle member 44 is connected to the blocking member 43, and the other end of the toggle member 44 extends at least partially from the second through hole 31. The toggle member 44 is configured to be toggle to drive the blocking member 43 to move along the width direction Y of the display panel 10. By utilizing the top space of the middle frame 30 to set the toggle member 44, sufficient space can be provided for the toggle member 44 without occupying the display space of the display panel 10, thereby effectively improving the screen-to-body ratio of the display device 100.
[0123] See again Figure 5 In some embodiments, the camera module 40 further includes a plurality of sensors 50, which are mounted in the mounting bracket 41 and are spaced apart from the camera 42 along the width direction Y of the display panel 10.
[0124] Specifically, the mounting bracket 41 is a long frame-like structure extending along the width direction Y of the display panel 10, and multiple sensors 50 and cameras 42 are spaced apart within the mounting bracket 41 along the width direction Y of the display panel 10.
[0125] For example, multiple sensors 50 can be fixed on the mounting bracket 41 by means of adhesive bonding, screw connection, etc., and this application embodiment does not limit this.
[0126] For example, the multiple sensors 50 may include, but are not limited to, infrared sensors 50, voice sensors 50, light sensors 50, etc., and the embodiments of this application do not limit this.
[0127] Understandably, the infrared sensor 50 can be used to detect remote control commands. When the user operates the remote control, the infrared sensor 50 receives the infrared signal emitted by the remote control and converts it into an electrical signal, which is then transmitted to the control chip of the display device 100, thereby enabling remote control of the display device 100. The voice sensor 50 can receive the user's voice commands and convert the user's voice into text commands through a built-in voice recognition algorithm, thereby controlling the display device 100 to perform corresponding operations, such as changing channels or adjusting volume. The light sensor 50 can sense the ambient light intensity and automatically adjust the screen brightness of the display device 100 according to changes in light to provide a more comfortable viewing experience and also help save energy.
[0128] By mounting multiple sensors 50 on the mounting bracket 41, on the one hand, the space inside the mounting bracket 41 can be fully utilized, effectively saving space in the display device 100 and making the overall structure more compact. On the other hand, integrating multiple sensors 50 and camera 42 on the same mounting bracket 41 and then mounting them together on the display device 100 can effectively improve the installation efficiency of the display device 100 and facilitate the unified maintenance and management of the sensors 50 and camera 42 in the future.
[0129] Please refer to the following: Figures 7 to 9 , Figure 7 This is a schematic diagram of the spring structure provided in the embodiments of this application. Figure 8 This is a rear view of the camera module (with the blocking member configured to block the first clearance hole) provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 9This is a rear view of a camera module (with the blocking member configured to open the first clearance hole) provided in an embodiment of this application. In some embodiments, the camera module 40 includes a spring structure 45 disposed on a mounting bracket 41, and one end of a toggle member 44 connected to the blocking member 43 slidably abuts against the spring structure 45. The spring structure 45 has a first abutment position 451 and a second abutment position 452. When the toggle member 44 slides on the spring structure 45 along the width direction Y of the display device 100 to at least partially located at the first abutment position 451, the blocking member 43 is configured to block the first clearance hole 41a; when the toggle member 44 slides on the spring structure 45 along the width direction Y of the display device 100 to at least partially located at the second abutment position 452, the blocking member 43 is configured to open the first clearance hole 41a.
[0130] By setting the spring structure 45 to have a first abutment position 451 and abutment position 452, the actuating member 44 can be accurately positioned in the corresponding position during the sliding process, thereby realizing the reliable blocking or opening operation of the blocking member 43 on the first clearance hole 41a.
[0131] Combination Figure 4 and Figure 8 As shown, when the toggle member 44 slides to the first abutment position 451, the first elastic protrusion 451a can limit and fix the toggle member 44 to a certain extent, preventing the toggle member 44 from deviating from its position due to accidental shaking, ensuring that the shielding member 43 can stably block the first clearance hole 41a, effectively protecting the camera 42 from being spied on by the outside world and ensuring the user's privacy and security.
[0132] Combination Figure 6 and Figure 9 As shown, when the toggle member 44 slides to the second abutment position 452, the second elastic protrusion 452a also plays a limiting and fixing role, so that the shielding member 43 can accurately open the first clearance hole 41a, allowing the camera 42 to work normally and realize functions such as video call and monitoring.
[0133] Furthermore, the spring-loaded structure 45 provides the actuating element 44 with a certain degree of elastic feedback during sliding, allowing the user to judge by touch whether the actuating element 44 has slid into place, thus improving the convenience and accuracy of operation. In addition, this spring-loaded structure 45 design is relatively simple and low-cost, which helps reduce the overall manufacturing cost of the display device 100, while also ensuring structural stability and reliability, and extending the service life of the display device 100.
[0134] In some embodiments, a first connecting portion is provided on the first abutting position 451 of the spring structure 45, and a second connecting portion is provided on the toggle member 44. The toggle member 44 slides on the spring structure 45. When the toggle member 44 slides to the point where the first connecting portion and the second connecting portion are engaged and connected, the blocking member 43 is configured to block the first clearance hole 41a.
[0135] It is understood that the first connecting part can be the first elastic protrusion 451a or the first recess 44a, and correspondingly, the second connecting part can be the first recess 44a or the first elastic protrusion 451a. This application embodiment does not limit this.
[0136] In some embodiments, a third connecting portion is provided on the second abutment position 452 of the spring structure 45, and a fourth connecting portion is provided on the toggle member 44. The toggle member 44 slides on the spring structure 45. When the toggle member 44 slides to the point where the third connecting portion and the fourth connecting portion are engaged and connected, the blocking member 43 is configured to open the first clearance hole 41a.
[0137] It is understood that the third connecting part can be the second elastic protrusion 452a or the second recess 44b, and correspondingly, the fourth connecting part can be the second recess 44b or the second elastic protrusion 452a. This application embodiment does not limit this.
[0138] Please see Figure 10 , Figure 10 Exploded views of the shielding member, spring structure, and actuating member provided in embodiments of this application. In some embodiments, a first elastic protrusion 451a is formed on the first abutment position 451, and a first recess 44a is formed at one end of the actuating member 44. When the actuating member 44 slides to the point where the first recess 44a engages with the first elastic protrusion 451a, the shielding member 43 is configured to block the first clearance hole 41a. A second elastic protrusion 452a is formed on the second abutment position 452, and a second recess 44b is formed at one end of the actuating member 44. When the actuating member 44 slides to the point where the second recess 44b engages with the second elastic protrusion 452a, the shielding member 43 is configured to open the first clearance hole 41a.
[0139] By forming a first elastic protrusion 451a at the first abutment position 451 and a first recess 44a on the actuating member 44, when the actuating member 44 slides to the first recess 44a and engages with the first elastic protrusion 451a, the elastic force generated between the two ensures that the actuating member 44 is firmly stationed at the first abutment position 451, thereby allowing the blocking member 43 to continuously and reliably block the first clearance hole 41a, providing strict privacy protection for the camera 42. Similarly, a second elastic protrusion 452a is provided at the second abutment position 452, and a second recess 44b is provided at one end of the actuating member 44. When the actuating member 44 slides to the second recess 44b and engages with the second elastic protrusion 452a, it also ensures that the actuating member 44 is accurately positioned at the second abutment position 452, allowing the blocking member 43 to accurately open the first clearance hole 41a, ensuring that the camera 42 can normally receive external light and achieve functions such as clear image acquisition and video calls. This design, which uses the elastic protrusion and recess to cooperate, not only improves the positioning accuracy of the toggle 44, but also enhances the stability and durability of the entire camera module 40 structure, effectively preventing the obstruction 43 from malfunctioning due to the loosening or displacement of the toggle 44.
[0140] For example, the structures of the first elastic protrusion 451a and the second elastic protrusion 452a can be triangular protrusions or semi-circular protrusions formed by bending the spring sheet structure 45, as long as they can achieve a stable fit and connection with the recess on the actuating member 44 to achieve the effect of limiting and fixing the actuating member 44. This application embodiment does not limit this. Correspondingly, the structures of the first recess 44a and the second recess 44b are adapted to the structures of the first elastic protrusion 451a and the second elastic protrusion 452a. Specifically, the triangular protrusion consists of two inclined surfaces, which can guide the first recess 44a or the second recess 44b to smoothly slide into or out of the first elastic protrusion 451a and the second elastic protrusion 452a. During the sliding of the actuating member 44, the inclined surfaces of the triangular protrusion can reduce the resistance when the actuating member 44 slides, making the operation easier and smoother. At the same time, when the first recess 44a or the second recess 44b slides into the first elastic protrusion 451a or the second elastic protrusion 452a, the two inclined surfaces can also play a good limiting role, preventing the actuating member 44 from easily sliding out and ensuring the stability of the blocking member 43.
[0141] See again Figure 7 and Figure 10In some embodiments, the spring structure 45 includes a first spring portion 45a and a second spring portion 45b. The first spring portion 45a has a first abutment position 451 and a second abutment position 452. The second spring portion 45b is configured to be disposed between the camera 42 and the actuating member 44, so that the camera 42 elastically abuts against the mounting bracket 41 and aligns the camera 42 with the first clearance hole 41a. By setting the spring structure 45 to include the first spring portion 45a and the second spring portion 45b, the first spring portion 45a can achieve precise positioning of the actuating member 44 and reliable operation of the blocking member 43, while the second spring portion 45b provides elastic support for the camera 42. This allows the camera 42 to be tightly and accurately aligned with the first clearance hole 41a while avoiding damage to the camera 42 caused by rigid support force, thereby effectively ensuring the normal operation of the light-gathering end of the camera 42 and improving the service life of the camera 42.
[0142] For example, the structures of the first spring plate 45a and the second spring plate 45b can be elongated plate-shaped structures, wavy structures or other elastic structures. This application embodiment does not specifically limit them.
[0143] In some embodiments, the second spring portion 45b is bent and connected to one side of the first spring portion 45a, and a stress-relieving groove 45c is provided at the connection between the first spring portion 45a and the second spring portion 45b. By setting the second spring portion 45b to be bent and connected to one side of the first spring portion 45a, and by integrally molding the second spring portion 45b and the first spring portion 45a, the manufacturing process of the spring structure 45 is simplified, the manufacturing cost is reduced, and the overall strength and stability of the spring structure 45 are enhanced. Furthermore, the stress-relieving groove 45c at the connection between the first spring portion 45a and the second spring portion 45b effectively releases the stress generated by the second spring portion 45b during the elastic support of the camera 42, preventing stress concentration from causing deformation or damage to the spring structure 45, thereby further extending the service life of the spring structure 45 and ensuring the long-term stable operation of the camera module 40 on the display device 100.
[0144] It can be understood that the stress-relieving groove 45c is a through groove, that is, the connection between the first spring part 45a and the second spring part 45b is at least partially disconnected. Through this through groove design that is at least partially disconnected, the stress transmission problem between the first spring part 45a and the second spring part 45b can be effectively reduced without increasing the manufacturing difficulty and cost of the spring structure 45. This enables the spring structure to achieve an effective stress release effect, improves the quality and reliability of the spring structure 45, and is conducive to improving the overall performance and user experience of the display device 100.
[0145] For example, the structure of the pressure relief groove 45c can be circular, rectangular or other polygonal, and this application embodiment does not limit it.
[0146] In some embodiments, the projection of the first abutment 451 along the thickness direction X of the display panel 10 is located within the projection range of the stress relief groove 45c along the thickness direction X of the display panel 10. By setting the relative position of the first abutment 451 and the stress relief groove 45c, the stress relief groove 45c can effectively alleviate the stress generated by the first abutment 451 when it is subjected to force, and prevent the stress from being transmitted to the area around the first abutment 451, which would cause the spring structure 45 to deform as a whole. This not only prevents the second spring part 45b from being deformed by the stress transmitted from the first spring part 45a, thereby protecting the camera 42 from damage, but also ensures the positioning accuracy and stability of the toggle member 44 on the first abutment 451, thereby ensuring that the blocking effect of the blocking member 43 on the first clearance hole 41a is not affected. When the actuating member 44 is subjected to external force on the first abutment position 451, the stress will be dispersed and released at the stress relief groove 45c due to the presence of the stress relief groove 45c, without damaging the structure of the first abutment position 451. This allows the first elastic protrusion 451a to continuously and stably cooperate with the first recess 44a on the actuating member 44, maintaining the state of the shielding member 43 shielding the first clearance hole 41a, and providing reliable privacy protection for the camera 42.
[0147] In some embodiments, the projection of the second abutment 452 along the thickness direction X of the display panel 10 is located within the projection range of the force relief groove 45c along the thickness direction X of the display panel 10. Similarly, by setting the relative position of the second abutment 452 and the force relief groove 45c, the stress generated by the second abutment 452 when the toggle member 44 slides to the second abutment 452 can be effectively relieved. This not only prevents the second spring piece 45b from being deformed by the stress transmitted from the first spring piece 45a, thereby protecting the camera 42 from damage, but also ensures the positioning accuracy and stability of the toggle member 44 on the second abutment 452, allowing the blocking member 43 to accurately open the first clearance hole 41a, so that the camera 42 can work normally.
[0148] Please refer to the following: Figures 10 to 11 , Figure 11This is a second exploded view of the camera module provided in an embodiment of this application. In some embodiments, the mounting bracket 41 is provided with a second clearance hole 41b. The blocking member 43 includes a cover plate portion 431 and an extension portion 432. The cover plate portion 431 is configured to block or open the first clearance hole 41a, and the extension portion 432 extends along the thickness direction X of the display panel 10, with one end of the extension portion 432 connected to the cover plate portion 431. Thus, the extension portion 432 is movably inserted into the second clearance hole 41b. This design allows the extension portion 432 to slide smoothly within the second clearance hole 41b when the blocking member 43 moves along the width direction Y of the display panel 10, providing a stable movement trajectory for the cover plate portion 431 to block or open the first clearance hole 41a, ensuring the accuracy and reliability of the blocking member 43's movement. Moreover, the second clearance hole 41b plays a good guiding and limiting role for the extension 432, preventing the shield 43 from shifting or shaking during movement, and further improving the stability and durability of the entire camera module 40 structure.
[0149] For example, the extension 432 may have a plate-like, strip-like, or column-like structure, and this application embodiment does not limit this. Specifically, the extension 432 may also have a protruding hook, which engages with the second clearance hole 41b to effectively prevent the extension 432 from falling out of the second clearance hole 41b, thereby preventing the entire blocking member 43 from accidentally falling off the mounting bracket 41 and enhancing the stability of the structure. At the same time, this hook design does not affect the normal sliding of the extension 432 within the second clearance hole 41b, ensuring that the blocking member 43 can move flexibly to achieve the function of blocking or opening the first clearance hole 41a, while also providing additional fixing protection for the blocking member 43.
[0150] In some embodiments, the actuating member 44 includes an actuating portion 441, a first abutting portion 442, and a second abutting portion 443. The actuating portion 441 extends at least partially from the second through hole 31. One end of the first abutting portion 442 is connected to the actuating portion 441, and the other end of the first abutting portion 442 abuts against the spring structure 45. One end of the second abutting portion 443 is connected to the actuating portion 441 and forms a first locking portion 444 between it and the first abutting portion 442. The other end of the second abutting portion 443 abuts against the spring structure 45. The other end of the extension portion 432 extends from the second clearance hole 41b into the mounting bracket 41 and engages with the first locking portion 444, so that the actuating portion 441 drives the extension portion 432 and the cover portion 431 to move along the width direction Y of the display panel 10.
[0151] By setting the first abutment part 442 and the second abutment part 443 to abut against the spring structure 45, the force of the actuating member 44 can be evenly transmitted to the spring structure 45 through the first abutment part 442 and the second abutment part 443 during the sliding process, ensuring the smoothness and accuracy of the abutment action. In addition, the first abutment part 442 and the second abutment part 443 are set to form a first locking part 444, so that the extension part 432 is engaged with the first locking part 444. This design allows the actuating member 441 to move the extension part 432 while simultaneously moving the cover part 431 precisely along the width direction Y of the display panel 10. This achieves reliable blocking or opening of the first clearance hole 41a, and eliminates the need for additional fasteners to fix the blocking member 43 and the actuating member 44. This connection method effectively simplifies the structural design of the camera module 40, which helps to reduce the assembly difficulty of the camera module 40 and the subsequent maintenance costs.
[0152] For example, the shape of the toggle part 441 can be strip-shaped, cylindrical, elliptical cylinder or block-shaped, etc., and the embodiments of this application do not limit it.
[0153] For example, the structure of the first abutting part 442 and the second abutting part 443 can be a strip structure, a column structure or a block structure, etc., and the embodiments of this application do not limit this.
[0154] Specifically, such as Figure 10 As shown, the overall structure of the toggle member 44 can be composed of an elliptical cylindrical toggle part 441, a hook-shaped first abutment part 442, and a hook-shaped second abutment part 443. The toggle member 44 can also be provided with an indicator part 445, which is a plate-shaped structure extending along the width direction Y of the display panel 10. The indicator part 445 is provided with indicator words (e.g., "ON", "OFF", "Open", "Closed" etc.).
[0155] Please refer to the following: Figures 12 to 13 , Figure 12 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the mounting bracket provided in the embodiments of this application. Figure 13 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the shielding member provided in an embodiment of this application. In some embodiments, a first guide portion 411 protrudes from the outer peripheral edge of the first clearance hole 41a, and a second guide portion 431a extending along the width direction Y of the display panel 10 is provided on the cover plate portion 431. The second guide portion 431a is guided and connected to the first guide portion 411 to guide the cover plate portion 431 to move along the width direction Y of the display panel 10.
[0156] By connecting the first guide portion 411 on the mounting bracket 41 with the second guide portion 431a on the cover portion 431, precise guidance is provided for the movement of the cover portion 431, ensuring that the cover portion 431 always moves along the width direction Y of the display panel 10 without offset or tilting. This guiding connection method effectively improves the accuracy of the blocking member 43 in blocking or opening the first clearance hole 41a, enabling the blocking member 43 to accurately reach the designated position and achieve reliable function. At the same time, the cooperation of the first guide portion 411 and the second guide portion 431a also enhances the stability of the entire camera module 40 structure, reducing the shaking or abnormal noise that may occur due to the uneven movement of the blocking member 43, providing users with a more stable and quiet user experience. Moreover, this guiding structure design is relatively simple, easy to manufacture and assemble, and does not increase manufacturing costs or assembly difficulty excessively, which is conducive to improving the production efficiency and reducing costs of the display device 100.
[0157] For example, the first guide portion 411 and the second guide portion 431a can be a sliding groove and a sliding rail structure that cooperate with each other. The sliding rail is disposed on the outer peripheral edge of the first clearance hole 41a, and the sliding groove is disposed on the cover plate portion 431. The guiding function is realized by the sliding of the sliding rail in the sliding groove. The first guide portion 411 and the second guide portion 431a can also be a structure that cooperates with a protrusion and a groove. The first guide portion 411 is a protrusion, and the second guide portion 431a is a groove. The protrusion is embedded in the groove for guidance. This application embodiment does not limit this.
[0158] In some embodiments, a first limiting portion 412 protrudes from the outer peripheral edge of the first clearance hole 41a. The first limiting portion 412 and the first guide portion 411 are respectively located on both sides of the first clearance hole 41a along the width direction Y of the display panel 10. The second guide portion 431a includes a first inclined surface 4311 and a second inclined surface 4312. The first inclined surface 4311 and the second inclined surface 4312 are inclined to form a first locking position 4311a. The first locking position 4311a is configured to be limited and connected to the first limiting portion 412 to restrict the movement of the cover plate portion 431 along the width direction Y of the display panel 10.
[0159] By setting a first limiting part 412 on the outer periphery of the first clearance hole 41a and forming a first locking position 4311a with the second guide part 431a on the cover plate part 431, the movement range of the cover plate part 431 in the width direction Y of the display panel 10 can be effectively limited. This limiting design can prevent the cover plate part 431 from exceeding the predetermined position during movement, ensuring that the blocking member 43 accurately blocks or opens the first clearance hole 41a, and avoiding the normal operation of the camera 42 or the failure of privacy protection due to excessive movement of the cover plate part 431.
[0160] Meanwhile, the inclined arrangement of the first inclined surface 4311 and the second inclined surface 4312 makes the connection between the first locking position 4311a and the first limiting part 412 more stable and reliable, and also plays a guiding role. When the cover plate part 431 moves to the designated position, the first locking position 4311a can be tightly locked on the first limiting part 412, preventing the cover plate part 431 from being displaced due to external vibration or misoperation, further improving the stability and reliability of the entire camera module 40 structure. It can be understood that the first limiting part 412 is a structure adapted to the second guiding part 431a.
[0161] For example, the first limiting part 412 can be a stop block, a stop strip, or a stop rib, etc. Correspondingly, the structure of the first locking position 4311a is adapted to the structure of the first limiting part 412 so that the first limiting part 412 and the first locking position 4311a are limitedly connected. This application embodiment does not limit this.
[0162] Please refer to the following: Figures 14 to 15 , Figure 14 This is a front view of a camera module (with a blocking member configured to block the first clearance hole) provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 15 This is a front view of a camera module (with the blocking member configured to open the first clearance hole) provided in an embodiment of this application. In some embodiments, there are two cameras 42 and two first clearance holes 41a, which are spaced apart along the width direction Y of the display panel 10. The two cameras 42 are respectively provided with the two first clearance holes 41a. The blocking member 43 is provided with a third clearance hole 433, which divides the blocking member 43 into a first plate portion 433a and a second plate portion 433b. When the toggle member 44 is in the first abutment position 451, the first plate portion 433a is configured to block one of the first clearance holes 41a, and the second plate portion 433b is configured to block the other first clearance hole 41a. When the actuating member 44 is in the second abutment position 452, the first plate portion 433a is configured to open one of the first clearance holes 41a, and the third clearance hole 433 is configured to open the first clearance hole 41a in correspondence with the other first clearance hole 41a.
[0163] By including two cameras 42 in the camera module 40, the diverse functional requirements of the display device 100 for the cameras 42 in different scenarios can be met. For example, one camera 42 can be used for everyday video calls, ensuring clear image transmission; the other camera 42 can be used for specific monitoring scenarios, such as monitoring the surrounding environment of the device. The two first clearance holes 41a are spaced apart along the width Y direction of the display panel 10, and the two cameras 42 are respectively positioned correspondingly. This layout makes the distribution of the cameras 42 on the display device 100 more reasonable, making full use of space and ensuring that each camera 42 has an independent light intake channel, avoiding mutual interference.
[0164] Optionally, the focal lengths of the two cameras 42 can be set differently. For example, one camera 42 used for video calls can be set as a close-up camera, and the other camera 42 used for monitoring functions can be set as a telephoto camera. This makes the display device 100 more flexible and efficient in dealing with different shooting distances and scene requirements. When the user needs to take close-up shots, such as showing facial details in a video call, the first clearance hole 41a corresponding to the close-up camera will be opened, and the close-up camera will work normally, capturing clear and detailed close-up images. When it is necessary to shoot scenes at a greater distance, such as a large area in the monitoring room, the first clearance hole 41a corresponding to the telephoto camera will be opened, and the telephoto camera will take advantage of its strengths to obtain clear image information from a distance.
[0165] Moreover, this design ensures functionality without excessively increasing structural complexity. The cooperation between the toggle element 44 and the spring-loaded structure 45, along with the well-placed third clearance hole 433 on the blocking element 43, makes the operation of the entire camera module 40 simple and reliable. Users can easily block or open both cameras 42 simultaneously with a single toggle operation, effectively enhancing the user experience.
[0166] For example, the structure of the first plate portion 433a and the second plate portion 433b can be a rectangular plate structure, a circular plate structure, or other polygonal plate structures, and the embodiments of this application do not limit this.

At the same time, for those skilled in the art, there will be changes in the specific implementation methods and application scope based on the ideas of this application. Therefore, the content of this specification should not be construed as a limitation of this application.
