In one embodiment, the density of the dots 1131 disposed on the first light guiding region 1121 near the light incident portion 111 is 3.07%, the density of the dots 1131 disposed at the tail of the second light guiding region 1122 (i.e., at the end of the second light guiding region 1122 away from the first light guiding region 1121) is 57.88%, the density of the dots 1131 disposed therebetween is between 3.07% and 57.88%, and the density of the dots 1131 gradually increases from the near light incident portion 111 to the far light incident portion 111 (for example, the density of the dots 1131 may gradually change in an arithmetic progression manner, or in other manners, as long as the light emitted after being reflected and scattered by the dots 1131 is ensured to be uniformly distributed). The higher density means that the dots 1131 are more densely distributed, and the more easily the light is reflected and scattered by the dots 1131.
Further, the upper edge of the first light guiding region 1121 includes an upper curved edge 11210, the lower edge of the first light guiding region 1121 includes a lower curved edge 11211, and the upper curved edge 11210 and the lower curved edge 11211 are relatively expanded, which is beneficial to expanding the area of the first light guiding region 1121, so that the display area of the display device portion corresponding to the first light guiding region 1121 can be effectively expanded, and diversified use requirements can be met.

The upper straight line edge and the lower straight line edge are relatively extended along the direction away from the light incident portion 111, which is beneficial to enlarging the area of the first light guiding region 1121, so that the display area of the display device portion corresponding to the first light guiding region 1121 can be effectively enlarged, and diversified use requirements are met.
From the overall structure of the light guide portion 112, the first light guide region 1121 and the second light guide region 1122 are in smooth transition, that is, the upper curved edge 11210 of the first light guide region 1121 is in smooth connection with the upper edge of the second light guide region 1122, and the lower curved edge 11211 of the first light guide region 1121 is in smooth connection with the lower edge of the second light guide region 1122, so that it is ensured that after light enters the second light guide region 1122 from the first light guide region 1121, sudden changes of light distribution do not occur after reflection or scattering occurs at a mesh point, and it is effectively ensured that the light distribution is more uniform.
