Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. It is to be understood that the embodiments described are only a few embodiments of the present application and not all embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present application.
The embodiment of the application provides a support film and a display module, which are respectively described in detail below.
Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a support film according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The support film 10 includes a first region 11 and a second region 12. Wherein the first region 11 and the second region 12 are arranged adjacently. The thickness of the supporting film 10 at the corresponding portion of the first region 11 is gradually reduced from the central axis 13 of the first region 11 to both sides. The thickness of the support film 10 at the corresponding portion of the second region 12 gradually increases toward the direction away from the central axis 13.
The support film 10 is bilaterally symmetric about the center axis 13. The material of the support membrane 10 includes polyimide, high elastic rubber, polymer film or steel sheet. The elastic modulus of the supporting film is 1-10 Gpa. Preferably, the elastic modulus of the support film is 3.5 Gpa.
In the embodiment of the present application, the edge line of the cross section of the support film 10 may be a broken line as shown in fig. 1 or a curved line as shown in fig. 2.
In the description of the present application, the terms "first", "second", "third" are used for descriptive purposes only and are not to be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implying any number of technical features indicated. Thus, features defined as "first", "second", "third" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the described features.
Referring to fig. 3 to 4, fig. 3 and 4 are schematic structural diagrams of a display module according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The display module 100 includes a support film 10 and a display panel 20. The support film 10 is disposed on one side of the display panel 20.
The support film 10 is attached to the display panel 20 by an Optical Clear Adhesive (OCA).
The display module 100 includes a first bending region 101, a second bending region 102, and a bending axis 103 located in the first bending region 101. The first bending region 101 is disposed adjacent to the second bending region 102.
The thickness of the support film 10 at the corresponding portion of the first bending region 101 is gradually reduced from the bending axis to both sides. The thickness of the support film 10 at the corresponding portion of the second bending region 102 gradually increases toward the direction away from the bending axis 103.
The first region of the support film 10 corresponds to the first bending region 101 of the display module 100. The second region of the support film 10 corresponds to the second bending region 102 of the display module 100.
In the embodiment of the present application, the first bending region 101 is located at a middle position of the display module 100. The bending axis 103 is located at the middle of the first bending region 101. It should be noted that the positions of the first bending region 101 and the bending axis 103 include, but are not limited to, the situation shown in the embodiment of the present application.
In this embodiment, the edge line of the cross section of the support film 10 is a fold line. That is, the thickness of the support film 10 at the first bending region 101 corresponding to the first portion is inversely proportional to the distance between the first portion and the bending axis 103. The thickness of the support film 10 and the second portion of the second bending region 102 is proportional to the distance between the second portion and the bending axis 103. Therefore, the phenomenon that the display panel 20 is damaged due to the fact that the bending radius of the display panel 20 is too small because of the thickness mutation of the local support films of the first bending region 101 and the second bending region 102 when the display module 100 is bent is avoided.
Since the thickness of the support film 10 at the bending axis 103 is greater than the thickness of both sides of the bending axis 103, the support force of the support film 10 at the bending axis 103 is greater than the support force of both sides of the bending axis 103.
Since the thickness of the support film 10 at the first bending region 101 corresponds to the first portion is inversely proportional to the distance between the first portion and the bending axis 103. The thickness of the support film 10 at the second bending region 102 corresponding to the second portion is proportional to the distance between the second portion and the bending axis 103. So that the support film 10 provides a gradually decreasing support force to the portion of the display panel 20 in the first bending region 101 and provides a gradually increasing support force to the portion of the display panel 20 in the second bending region 102. When the display module 100 is in the folded state, the display module 100 may exhibit a water drop state as shown in fig. 5 due to the change of the supporting force of the first bending region 101 and the second bending region 102, further relieving the stress at the bending axis 103, thereby increasing the bending radius thereof. At this time, the bending axis 103 has the largest bending radius.
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the display panel 20 includes a light emitting surface, and the support film 10 is located on a side of the display panel 20 away from the light emitting surface. Therefore, in the embodiment of the present application, the supporting film 10 does not block the light emitted from the display panel 20, so that the display effect of the display panel 20 is improved.
In view of the above, the display module 100 provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure includes the support film 10 and the display panel 20. The support film 10 is disposed on one side of the display panel 20. The display module 100 includes a first bending region 101, a second bending region 102, and a bending axis 103 disposed in the first bending region 101. The first bending region 101 is disposed adjacent to the second bending region 102. The thickness of the support film 10 at the corresponding portion of the first bending region 101 gradually decreases from the bending axis to both sides. The thickness of the support film 10 at the corresponding portion of the second bending region 102 gradually increases toward the direction away from the bending axis 103.
This scheme is through setting up the thickness change of supporting film 10, make this supporting film 10 provide the holding power that reduces gradually to the partial display panel 20 of first bending zone 101, provide gradually crescent holding power to the partial display panel 20 of second bending zone 102, make when this display module assembly 100 buckles, can present the water droplet state, the stress of buckling axle 103 department has further been alleviated, thereby increase its radius of buckling, the radius of buckling axle 103 department under the display module assembly 100 fold condition has been avoided undersize, cause the damage to display panel 20, thereby the problem of display failure appears.
In the foregoing embodiments, the descriptions of the respective embodiments have respective emphasis, and for parts that are not described in detail in a certain embodiment, reference may be made to related descriptions of other embodiments.
The support film and the display module provided by the embodiment of the application are described in detail, a specific example is applied to explain the principle and the implementation of the application, and the description of the embodiment is only used for helping to understand the technical scheme and the core idea of the application; those of ordinary skill in the art will understand that: the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments may still be modified, or some technical features may be equivalently replaced; such modifications or substitutions do not depart from the spirit and scope of the present disclosure as defined by the appended claims.
