The bonding region may include a gold finger pad and a trace of a bonded Chip (IC) and a Flexible Printed Circuit (FPCB) board.
The flexible substrate 1 forms a plurality of transition angles 11 (shown as areas within an oval dashed line in fig. 3) extending from the bending region C to the display region a and the binding region B, respectively, and at least one transition angle 11 includes a crack stop structure recessed into the binding region B. As shown in fig. 3, crack stoppers may be provided at all of the 4 transition corners 11, or crack stoppers may be provided at some of the transition corners 11.
By providing the crack stopper structure at the transition angle, stress at the transition angle 11 can be dispersed, and stress concentration can be prevented.
It should be noted that there are actually 4 transition angles 11 in fig. 3, and it should not be understood that there is only one. In fig. 3, the AMOLED module is a top view of the smart watch without Pad bundling support, so that the shape of the AMOLED module is circular, and in practical applications, when the display product is other products, the shape of the AMOLED module may be other shapes (such as rectangle, square, etc.).
Referring to fig. 4 and 5, fig. 4 is a first structural schematic diagram of a crack arrest structure provided in the embodiment of the present invention, and fig. 5 is a second structural schematic diagram of a crack arrest structure provided in the embodiment of the present invention.
The crack arrest structure comprises two symmetrically arranged side edges 11a and a bottom edge 11b connecting the two side edges 11 a; the side edge 11a and the bottom edge 11b are in rounded transition.
As shown in fig. 4, the bottom side 11b may be an arc, and as shown in fig. 5, the bottom side 11b may be a straight line.
In fig. 4 and 5, a dividing line (indicated by a broken line in fig. 4 and 5) is added for convenience of description, and in practical applications, the dividing line is not present, and the two side edges 11a and the bottom edge 11b are of an integral structure.
With continued reference to fig. 4 and 5, the distance d between the two side edges 11a increases in the direction X away from the bottom edge 11b in the crack stop configuration.
The distance between the two side edges of the crack arrest structure is gradually increased in the direction away from the bottom edge, so that transition between the crack arrest structure and the outer edge of the display area and the edge of the binding area is facilitated.
Referring to fig. 6, which is a schematic structural diagram of a crack stop structure located between a bending region and a binding region according to an embodiment of the present invention, a first side 11a connected to a second side C of the bending region C and a second side 1C are rounded; a rounded transition is formed between the first side 11a and the third side 1B, which are connected to the third side B of the binding region B.

In one possible embodiment, the crack stop structure is U-shaped or trapezoidal in the plane of the flexible substrate base plate.
In one possible embodiment, the crack stop structure is a crack stop groove.
In a possible embodiment, each transition corner comprises a crack stop structure recessed into the bonding region.
In the embodiment provided by the invention, as the crack arrest structures which are sunken into the binding regions are arranged in the transition angles which respectively extend from the bending regions in the AMOLED display module to the display regions and the binding regions, the stress of the transition angles is dispersed in the crack arrest structures in the finished Pad bending process, so that the crack problem is prevented from diffusing into the binding regions, the signal lines passing through the binding regions can be effectively prevented from being broken, and the display regions can be normally displayed.
Based on the same inventive concept, embodiments of the present invention provide a flexible display device, which includes the AMOLED display module described above.
