Background

Liquid crystal displays have advantages of high image quality, power saving, thin body, and wide application range, and are widely used in various consumer electronics products such as mobile phones, televisions, digital cameras, notebook computers, and desktop computers, and become the mainstream of display devices.

The conventional array substrate structure generally includes: the pixel structure comprises a plurality of vertical data lines which are parallel to each other and are sequentially arranged, a plurality of horizontal scanning lines which are parallel to each other and are sequentially arranged, a plurality of thin film transistors which are electrically connected with the data lines and the scanning lines and are arranged in an array mode, and pixel electrodes which are electrically connected with the thin film transistors.

The scanning lines provide scanning signals to the thin film transistors, and the data lines provide data signals to the thin film transistors to control the liquid crystal display panel to display pictures. In the production process of the array substrate, due to the complex production process and the influence of the production process or the factory environment, the broken data lines may occur, which may cause the generation of black lines in the display image and seriously affect the image display quality, and at this time, the broken data lines need to be repaired. For the existing array substrate structure, after the data line is broken, long-line repair can only be carried out on the periphery, the repair process is complex, the repair effect is poor, and the success rate is low.

In a second aspect, the present invention provides a display device comprising the display panel provided by the present invention.

Compared with the prior art, the display panel and the display device provided by the invention at least realize the following beneficial effects:

the display panel provided by the invention comprises an array substrate and a color film substrate which are oppositely arranged, wherein a plurality of support columns are arranged between the array substrate and the color film substrate, the array substrate comprises a plurality of data lines and a plurality of repairing lines which are arranged on a substrate, the data lines and the repairing lines extend along the second direction, and after the data lines are broken, the data lines can be repaired through the repairing lines without long-line repairing at the periphery of the display panel, so that the difficulty in repairing the data lines in the display panel is effectively reduced, and the efficiency of repairing the data lines is improved. The sub-pixels comprise the thin film transistors, and in the direction perpendicular to the array substrate, the supporting columns and the thin film transistors are at least partially overlapped, so that the influence of the supporting columns on the aperture ratio of the sub-pixels is effectively reduced. The at least one data line and the at least one repair line are located between two adjacent sub-pixels arranged along the first direction, and the source electrode of the thin film transistor is electrically connected with the data line, namely the repair line is relatively close to the thin film transistor connected with the data line located between the two adjacent sub-pixels. The data line and the source electrode and the drain electrode of the thin film transistor are arranged on the same layer, and the semiconductor part of the thin film transistor is positioned on one side of the source electrode of the thin film transistor close to the substrate. When the film thickness of the repair line is larger than the total film thickness of the source electrode of the thin film transistor TFT and the semiconductor part of the thin film transistor, the box thickness between the color film substrate and the area where the repair line is located in the array substrate is smaller than the height of the support pillar, if the attachment of the color film substrate and the array substrate in the display panel is deviated or the display panel is influenced by external force to cause deviation between the color film substrate and the array substrate, the position of the support pillar is correspondingly deviated, and when the support pillar is deviated to the area where the repair line is located in the array substrate, the repair line can cause the support pillar to be in a skewed state to influence the support performance of the support pillar. Therefore, in the direction perpendicular to the array substrate, the film thickness of the repair line is smaller than or equal to the total film thickness of the source electrode of the thin film transistor and the semiconductor part of the thin film transistor, and the influence of the arrangement of the repair line on the supporting performance of the supporting column is effectively reduced.

d1≤d2，d1＞0，d2＞0。

specifically, with reference to fig. 1 to fig. 3, the display panel provided in this embodiment includes an array substrate 10 and a color filter substrate 20 that are oppositely disposed, a plurality of support pillars 30 are disposed between the array substrate 10 and the color filter substrate 20, and the box thickness between the array substrate 10 and the color filter substrate 20 is controlled by the heights of the support pillars 30 in the display panel. A liquid crystal layer is further disposed between the first and second substrates 100 and 200. The arrangement of the support columns 30 can improve the uniformity of the whole thickness of the display device, improve the tolerance of the display panel to liquid crystal fluctuation, and further improve the yield of the display panel.
