Screen Assembly Fingerprint Module Non-Display Area Layout
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Typical mobile terminals face challenges in accommodating multiple rear-facing cameras and a fingerprint button due to space constraints, leading to increased size and decreased screen-to-body ratio, which compromises user experience and increases production costs.
Innovation Solution
A screen assembly with a fingerprint module is designed, featuring a transparent cover with a fingerprint opening in the non-display area, allowing the fingerprint module to be partially overlapped with the display module, thereby reducing the device's size and maintaining the screen-to-body ratio, while using abutting and fixing portions for secure mounting.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If the display screen FPC is disposed below the screen, then the rear-facing cameras can be arranged at the top, but there is insufficient space at the bottom to arrange a fingerprint button
Solution Approach 1:
The fingerprint module is positioned in the non-display area at the bottom of the screen, utilizing the vertical space dimension rather than extending the horizontal layout. This allows the fingerprint button to be integrated within the existing screen boundary without requiring additional horizontal space, thereby resolving the space conflict between rear-facing cameras and fingerprint button arrangement.
2Adaptability or versatility
If the display screen FPC is disposed at the top of the screen, then the fingerprint button can be arranged at the bottom, but there is insufficient space at the top to arrange multiple rear-facing cameras
Solution Approach 1:
The fingerprint module is integrated into the non-display area at the bottom of the screen, utilizing the vertical space dimension rather than extending the horizontal layout. This allows the fingerprint button to be positioned at the bottom without requiring additional horizontal space, thereby resolving the space conflict between fingerprint button and rear-facing cameras arrangement.
3Adaptability or versatility
If the length of the lower part of the screen is extended to accommodate both multiple rear-facing cameras and a fingerprint button, then both components can be included, but the size of the terminal device increases and the screen-to-body ratio decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The fingerprint module is merged with the display module by positioning it within the non-display area of the screen. This integration allows both the fingerprint button and multiple rear-facing cameras to be accommodated within the existing terminal device boundary without extending the overall length, thereby maintaining the screen-to-body ratio while achieving component integration.
