Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Temperature

If a heat dissipation layer is provided on the back of the display panel, then heat dissipation function is improved, but if materials are improper or adhesion is weak, heat transfer becomes uneven causing concentrated high temperature

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveheat dissipationVSAvoiddisplay function stability
Core Design Contradiction:
TemperatureVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies curvature by forming protrusions on the surface of the heat dissipation layer. These protrusions create a non-planar surface that increases contact area with the display panel, improving heat transfer uniformity and preventing concentrated high temperature areas while maintaining effective heat dissipation

Inventive Principle:
Principle #14Spheroidality (Curvature)

2Object-affected harmful factors

If multiple film layers are used to transfer heat from driving chip to copper foil sheet, then electromagnetic shielding is improved, but heat transfer efficiency decreases due to multiple interfaces

Core Design Contradiction:
Object-affected harmful factorsVSLoss of energy

Solution Approach 1:

The protrusions on the heat dissipation layer surface improve thermal contact across multiple film layers by creating closer contact points, reducing thermal resistance at interfaces while preserving the multi-layer electromagnetic shielding structure

AI summary

The present application provides a display panel and a display device. The display panel includes a panel main body and a heat dissipation layer disposed on one side of the panel main body. The panel main body includes a first body portion. The heat dissipation layer includes a first heat dissipation portion corresponding to the first body portion. A surface of the first heat dissipation portion on one side away from the panel main body is a non-flat surface, so that a contact area of the heat dissipation layer with an outside of the display panel is increased, to avoid display abnormalities on the display panel due to poor heat dissipation.
