[0047] Display products are now widely used in personal display devices. To protect user privacy, the demand for display devices with privacy protection is expected to become increasingly common. Currently, the main privacy films are based on the principle of a Venetian blind structure. While these privacy films can achieve privacy protection, they significantly reduce the surface brightness of the display device, which is a significant drawback.
[0048] In recent years, with the addition of audio and video entertainment screens in the passenger seat of cars, how to prevent the main driver from seeing the entertainment content to ensure the main driver's safety has become a hot research topic.
[0049] Based on this, the present application provides a display module that can solve the above problems.
[0050] Please refer to Figure 1, which is a schematic diagram of an application scenario of a display module provided in some embodiments of the present application. Please also refer to Figure 2, which is a schematic diagram of the structure of a display module provided in some embodiments of the present application.
[0051] The display module 100 can be applied to various displays, such as liquid crystal displays (LCDs), organic light-emitting diode displays (OLEDs), and mini light-emitting diode displays (Mini LEDs). The display module 100 can also be applied to various electronic devices, such as wearable devices like smart bracelets and smart watches, VR (virtual reality) devices, mobile phones, e-books and e-newspapers, televisions, personal laptops, and flexible display and lighting devices, such as foldable and rollable devices.
[0052] As shown in Figure 1, the display module 100 includes a first viewing angle D1 and a second viewing angle D2. The range of the second viewing angle D2 is greater than the range of the first viewing angle D1. Different viewing angles refer to different angles of emitted light, resulting in different viewing angles for viewers. For example, the first viewing angle D1 is 0 to ±30°, and the second viewing angle D2 is ±30° to ±90°. The ranges of the first and second viewing angles can be determined based on actual conditions and are not limited in this application. Accordingly, the display module 100 includes a first display portion and a second display portion (not shown). The visual range of the first display portion corresponds to the first viewing angle D1, and the visual range of the second display portion corresponds to the second viewing angle D2.
[0053] As shown in Figure 2, the display module 100 includes a light-emitting functional layer and a dimming structure. The dimming structure includes a first optical structure 11 corresponding to the first display portion and a second optical structure 12 corresponding to the second display portion. The first optical structure 11 uses light emitted by the light-emitting functional layer to provide a first viewing angle, and the second optical structure 12 uses light emitted by the light-emitting functional layer to provide a second viewing angle.
[0054] In some embodiments, light emitted by the light-emitting functional layer passes through the first optical structure 11, and displays a first image at the first viewing angle D1 on the first display portion. Light emitted by the light-emitting functional layer passes through the second optical structure 12, and displays a second image at the second viewing angle D2 on the second display portion.
[0055] In some embodiments, the projection of the first optical structure 11 in the direction (Z) perpendicular to the display module 100 and the projection of the second optical structure 12 in the direction (Z) perpendicular to the display module are alternately arranged.
[0056] In some embodiments, the display module 100 can be applied to an in-vehicle display screen, which can be located directly in front of the front passenger seat B. The first viewing angle D1 is toward the front passenger seat B, and the second viewing angle D2 is toward the main driver seat A. Therefore, both the main driver seat A and the front passenger seat B can see the display screen. The main driver seat A can see the second screen, while the front passenger seat B can see the first screen, thus achieving a dual-view display function. Compared to a solution where only the front passenger seat B can see the display screen, the dual-view display solution of the present application can fully utilize the light emitted by the light-emitting functional layer, thereby improving light utilization efficiency.
[0057] The first screen can be a dynamic entertainment screen to provide entertainment for the viewer in the front passenger seat. The second screen can be a fixed static screen, such as displaying the vehicle logo or a specific pattern, to reduce interference with the viewer in the main driver seat A and ensure their safety.
[0058] Please refer to Figure 3, which is a schematic diagram of a second screen provided by a display module provided in some embodiments of the present application. The second screen may be a double-column graphic pattern.
[0059] As shown in Figure 2, the display module 100 includes a light-emitting functional layer, a first optical structure 11, a second optical structure 12, and a liquid crystal cell assembly 13.

[0060] The first optical structure 11 includes a first inverse prism 111, which provides the first viewing angle D1. Optionally, the lattice structure can adjust the light output angle of the outgoing light so that the outgoing light is concentrated at an angle between 10° and 30°, for example, 27°, which is the angle between the outgoing light of the light guide plate 101 and the surface of the light guide plate 101.
[0061] In some embodiments, both the upper surface and the lower surface of the light guide plate 101 may have the lattice structure to adjust the light output angle.
[0062] The second optical structure 12 includes a second inverse prism 121 disposed above the light guide plate 101 , and the second inverse prism 121 provides the second viewing angle D2 .
[0063] In some embodiments, the second inverse prisms 121 and the first inverse prisms 111 are disposed on the same prism film. Optionally, the second inverse prisms 121 and the first inverse prisms 111 can be disposed on one prism film 120 by embossing.

The second inverse prism 121 has a second reflective surface 121a, and the light from the light source assembly 10 passes through the second reflective surface 121a to provide the second viewing angle D2.
[0068] In some embodiments, the cross-sectional shapes of the first inverse prism 111 and the second inverse prism 121 along the direction perpendicular to the plane of the prism film 120 (XZ plane) are triangular, but the cross-sectional triangle of the first inverse prism 111 is different from the cross-sectional triangle of the second inverse prism 121 .
[0069] Optionally, the cross-sectional triangle of the first inverse prism 111 is an equilateral triangle, and the light emitted from the light guide plate 101 can be reflected or totally reflected on the inner surface of the first inverse prism 111, thereby adjusting the direction of the emitted light to the direction of the first viewing angle D1. The light emitted from the light guide plate 101 can be reflected or totally reflected on the inner surface of the second inverse prism 121, thereby adjusting the direction of the emitted light to the direction of the second viewing angle D2, thereby emitting light obliquely.
[0070] In some embodiments, the first inverse prism 111 has a triangular cross-section with a first reflective surface 111a, and light emitted from the light guide plate 101 is reflected on the first reflective surface 111a. The second inverse prism 121 has a triangular cross-section with a second reflective surface 121a, and light emitted from the light guide plate 101 is reflected on the second reflective surface 121a. The angle between the first reflective surface 111a and the plane of the light guide plate 101 is greater than the angle between the second reflective surface 121a and the plane of the light guide plate 101.
[0071] Please refer to FIG. 6 , which is a schematic structural diagram of a display module provided in some embodiments of the present application.
[0072] The display module 200 includes a light-emitting functional layer, a first optical structure 21, a second optical structure 22 and a liquid crystal box assembly 23.

The light emission angle of the first viewing angle D1 can be approximately 30°, allowing the liquid crystal cell assembly 23 to emit light at a narrow angle. The privacy film 211 can have a louver-like grating structure, such as a 3M PC film. The specific structure of the privacy film 211 is not limited in this application.
[0074] The liquid crystal cell assembly 23 may include a color filter substrate 231 and a driving substrate 232 disposed opposite each other, and a liquid crystal layer 233 located between the color filter substrate 231 and the driving substrate 232. The color filter substrate includes a color resist layer 234 and a blank portion 235. The color resist layer 234 includes red, green, and blue color resists.

[0077] In some embodiments, the cross-section of the metal structure 221 may be an inverted trapezoid, and light is reflected from the side surfaces of the inverted trapezoid.
[0078] In some embodiments, the metal structure 221 can serve as an electrode, which can provide a vertical electric field to control the deflection of the liquid crystal layer 233 .
[0079] Please refer to FIG. 7 , which is a schematic structural diagram of a display module provided in some embodiments of the present application.
[0080] The display module 300 includes a light-emitting functional layer, a first optical structure 31 and a second optical structure 32.

[0081] The first optical structure 31 includes a vertical shielding structure, which is disposed between two adjacent display units 30.
