Description

Technical Field

[0001] This disclosure relates to the field of electronic products, and more particularly to a screen module and an electronic device. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous advancement of high-end electronic devices and the rising aesthetic demands, the requirement for extremely narrow bezels in electronic devices is increasing. Consequently, the overlap between the edge of the glass cover and the mid-frame in electronic devices is also decreasing. In related technologies, foam adhesive is often used to bond the glass cover and the mid-frame. However, due to manufacturing and installation errors, gaps may exist between the glass cover and the mid-frame, causing light emitted from the backlight components to leak through these gaps, resulting in light leakage at the screen edges. This significantly affects the product's quality and aesthetics. Utility Model Content

[0003] This disclosure provides a screen module and an electronic device to address the shortcomings of related technologies.

[0004] According to a first aspect of the present disclosure, a screen module is provided, comprising:

[0005] Backlight component;

[0006] A light-blocking ring is provided around the side of the backlight component, and the light-blocking ring includes a light-blocking surface located on the side of the backlight component.

[0007] Optionally, the light-blocking ring and the backlight element are spaced apart.

[0008] Optionally, the light-blocking ring includes a foam ring, and the light-blocking surface forms at least a portion of the surface of the foam ring to seal the internal micropores of the foam ring.

[0009] Optionally, the light-blocking surface is formed on the side of the foam ring facing the backlight component.

[0010] Optionally, the light-blocking surface is formed on the side of the foam ring facing away from the backlight element.

[0011] Optionally, the light-blocking ring includes a foam component and a light-blocking component disposed on the foam component, wherein the light-blocking component forms the light-blocking surface with at least a portion of the surface of the foam component that is not in contact with the foam component.

[0012] Optionally, it also includes a glass cover plate, which covers the backlight element and is bonded to the light-blocking ring.

[0013] According to a second aspect of the present disclosure, an electronic device is provided, including a screen module as described above.

[0014] Optionally, the screen module includes a glass cover.

[0015] The electronic device includes a carrier plate and a frame connected to the carrier plate. The glass cover is assembled to the frame. In the thickness direction of the electronic device, the light-blocking ring is bonded between the glass cover and the carrier plate.

[0016] Optionally, the screen module includes a glass cover.

[0017] The electronic device also includes a frame, and the light-blocking ring is respectively bonded to the frame and the glass cover.

[0018] As can be seen from the above embodiments, the screen module of this disclosure provides a light-blocking surface by setting a light-blocking ring, and the light-blocking surface is located on the side of the backlight component, so that the light-blocking surface can block the light emitted from the side of the backlight component and block the propagation of the side light of the backlight component. Thus, after the screen module is assembled into an electronic device, the problem of light leakage at the edge of the screen module can be improved.

[0030] The technical solutions in the embodiments (or "implementations") of this disclosure will be clearly and completely described herein with reference to the accompanying drawings. When the following description relates to the drawings, unless otherwise indicated, the same numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements.

[0031] If this disclosure uses terms relating to directional indications or positional relationships (e.g., up, down, left, right, front, back, inside, outside, top, bottom, center, vertical, horizontal, longitudinal, transverse, length, width, counterclockwise, clockwise, axial, radial, circumferential, etc.), such terms are only used to explain the relative positional relationships and movements between components in a specific posture (as shown in the accompanying drawings); if the specific posture changes, the directional indications or positional relationships will also change accordingly. Furthermore, terms such as "first" and "second" in this disclosure are used only for descriptive convenience and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0032] Figure 1 This is a cross-sectional schematic diagram of an electronic device according to an exemplary embodiment. Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram illustrating a screen module according to an exemplary embodiment. Figure 3 yes Figure 2 A cross-sectional view of the middle screen module along line AA. (See diagram below.) Figures 1 to 3 As shown, this disclosure provides an electronic device including a screen module, a carrier board 5, and a frame 6. The screen module includes a backlight element 1, a light-blocking ring 2, and a glass cover 3. The light-blocking ring 2 is disposed around the side of the backlight element 1, the glass cover 3 covers the backlight element 1 and is bonded to the light-blocking ring 2, and the glass cover 3 is assembled to the frame 6.

[0033] The light-blocking ring 2 includes a light-blocking surface 21, which is located on the side of the backlight component 1 and is used to block light. With this configuration, the light-blocking surface 21 can block the light emitted from the side of the backlight component 1, thereby blocking the propagation of lateral light from the backlight component 1. This prevents light from reaching the edge of the glass cover plate 3, thus avoiding light leakage from the gap between the edge of the glass cover plate 3 and the frame 6. This improves the light leakage effect at the edge of the screen module, enhancing the quality and aesthetics of the electronic device.

[0034] In some embodiments, the light-blocking ring 2 is arranged in a ring shape and spaced apart from the backlight element 1. In other words, the inner side of the light-blocking ring 2 is spaced apart from the side of the backlight element 1, and correspondingly, the light-blocking surface 21 is also spaced apart from the side of the backlight element 1, so as to facilitate the layout of other components.

[0035] Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of a light-blocking ring according to an exemplary embodiment. Figure 5 yes Figure 4 A schematic diagram of the mid-range aperture and backlight assembly. Figure 6 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the assembly of a light-blocking ring and a backlight component according to another exemplary embodiment. Figures 4 to 6 As shown, the light-blocking ring 2 includes a foam ring 22, and a light-blocking surface 21 forms at least a portion of the surface of the foam ring 22 to seal the internal micropores of the foam ring 22. Specifically, the light-blocking surface 21 is formed on the side of the foam ring 22 facing the backlight member 1, thus blocking light emitted from the side of the backlight member 1 from entering the interior of the foam ring 22. Alternatively, the light-blocking surface 21 can also be formed on the side of the foam ring 22 away from the backlight member 1. This arrangement allows light emitted from the side of the backlight member 1 to enter the foam ring 22, thereby reducing the light intensity and better blocking the propagation of light through the light-blocking surface 21.

[0036] In some other embodiments, the foam ring 22 has a light-blocking surface 21 on both the side facing the backlight member 1 and the side facing away from the backlight member 1. This arrangement allows the light-blocking surface 21 to more comprehensively block the propagation of light and improve the light leakage effect at the edge of the screen module.

[0037] In some other embodiments, light-blocking surfaces 21 are formed around the periphery of the foam ring 22; in other words, the light-blocking surfaces 21 are arranged around the periphery of the foam ring 22. This arrangement allows the light-blocking surfaces 21 to more comprehensively block the propagation of light, improving the light leakage effect at the edge of the screen module.

[0038] The light-blocking surface 21 and the foam ring 22 are integrally formed. Specifically, the foam can be cut by laser thermal cutting so that the surface of the foam becomes molten, thereby forming the foam ring 22 and the light-blocking surface 21. The light-blocking surface 21 is the molten surface of the foam, and the micropores inside the light-blocking surface 21 are also eliminated accordingly to achieve the effect of blocking light.

[0039] Figure 7 This is a schematic diagram illustrating a light-blocking ring according to another exemplary embodiment. For example... Figure 7As shown, in some other embodiments, the light-blocking ring 2 includes a foam element 23 and a light-blocking element 24 disposed on the foam element 23. At least a portion of the surface of the light-blocking element 24 that is not in contact with the foam element 23 forms a light-blocking surface 21. Specifically, the light-blocking element 24 and the light-blocking surface 21 can be disposed opposite to each other, that is, the light-blocking element 24 is located on the side of the foam element 23 facing the backlight element 1, and the light-blocking surface 21 is located on the side of the foam element 23 facing away from the backlight element 1. Alternatively, the light-blocking element 24 is located on the side of the foam element 23 facing away from the backlight element 1, and the light-blocking surface 21 is located on the side of the foam element 23 facing the backlight element 1. Of course, the light-blocking element 24 and the light-blocking surface 21 can also be disposed adjacent to each other.

[0040] The light-blocking component 24 can be light-blocking tape, light-blocking plate, etc., and this article does not limit it.

[0041] like Figure 1 As shown, in some embodiments, the carrier plate 5 is connected to the frame 6, and the glass cover plate 3 is assembled to the frame 6. In the thickness direction of the electronic device, the light-blocking ring 2 is bonded between the glass cover plate 3 and the carrier plate 5. The carrier plate 5 and the frame 6 are integrally formed, and the carrier plate 5 and the frame 6 form the middle frame of the electronic device. It is worth noting that due to manufacturing and installation errors, there may be gaps between the edge of the glass cover plate 3 and the frame 6. However, due to the presence of the light-blocking surface 21, the light emitted from the side of the backlight component 1 can be effectively blocked, thereby improving the effect of light leakage at the edge of the screen module.

[0042] Figure 8 This is a cross-sectional schematic diagram illustrating an electronic device according to another exemplary embodiment. (e.g.) Figure 8 As shown, in some other embodiments, the light-blocking ring 2 is bonded to the frame 6 and the glass cover plate 3 respectively.

[0043] Figure 9 This is a cross-sectional schematic diagram illustrating an electronic device according to another exemplary embodiment. (e.g.) Figure 9 As shown, in some other embodiments, the carrier plate 5 and the frame 6 are separately arranged, and the frame 6 can be the middle frame of an electronic device, while the carrier plate 5 can be the back cover of an electronic device. In this embodiment, the glass cover plate 3 is assembled to the frame 6, and the light-blocking ring 2 is bonded between the glass cover plate 3 and the carrier plate 5, or the light-blocking ring 2 is bonded to both the glass cover plate 3 and the frame 6.

[0044] It should be noted that the technical solutions or features described in the above embodiments can be combined or complemented by each other without conflict. The scope of protection of this disclosure is not limited to the precise structures described in the above embodiments and shown in the accompanying drawings; all modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this disclosure should be included within the scope of protection of this disclosure.
