In the display device provided by the embodiment of the application, the thickness of the flexible circuit board is smaller (the flexible circuit board is referred to as a bending area in the application) due to the fact that the flexible circuit board has a partial area (at least three layers of the first functional layer and at least three layers of the second functional layer form the via holes), so that the flexible circuit board only has an area from one layer to three layers of the flexible circuit board without the via holes, the width of the via holes on two sides of the substrate is larger, the elastic modulus of the flexible circuit board is smaller, the flexible circuit board has an area which is easy to bend, in the attaching process of the cover plate and the display panel, the flexible circuit board can automatically droop due to gravity, and the flexible circuit board is prevented from being damaged due to interference caused by upwarp of the flexible circuit board.

In one embodiment, the via hole of any one of the first functional layer and the second functional layer is disposed in the bending region. Through setting up the via hole with any rete in first functional layer and the second functional layer in the bending zone for the flexible circuit board can follow the automatic tenesmus in bending zone, avoids the flexible circuit board upwarping to appear interfering the damage flexible circuit board, and the flexible circuit board can normally set up with the part that display panel and driver chip are connected, avoids appearing crooked and leads to impaired.
In one embodiment, as shown in fig. 2, the first functional layer comprises:
a first metal layer 121 disposed on one side of the substrate 11;
a first glue layer 122 disposed on a side of the first metal layer 121 away from the substrate 11;

the first electromagnetic-proof layer 124 is arranged on one side, away from the first glue layer 122, of the first protection layer 123;
wherein, the first anti-electromagnetic layer 124 is formed with a first via hole 125a, the first protection layer 123 is formed with a second via hole 125b, and at least one of the first glue layer 122 and the first metal layer 121 is formed with a via hole. Through forming the first anti-electromagnetic layer and the first protective layer into the via hole, at least one of the first glue layer and the first protective layer is formed into the via hole, so that the thickness of the first functional layer in the bending area is smaller, the thickness of the flexible circuit board in the bending area is reduced, the width of the via hole of the flexible circuit board in the bending area is increased, the stiffness of the flexible circuit board is reduced, the flexible circuit board can fall down due to self gravity, and the flexible circuit board is prevented from being damaged due to interference.
Specifically, first anti-electromagnetic layer is formed with first via hole, first protective layer is formed with the second via hole, first glue film is formed with the third via hole, forms the via hole through making first anti-electromagnetic layer, first protective layer and first glue film for flexible circuit board is less at the thickness in bending area, reduces flexible circuit board's stiffness, makes flexible circuit board can be because of self gravity tenesmus, avoids flexible circuit board to appear interfering and leads to the damage.
Specifically, the first electromagnetic shielding layer is formed with a first via hole, the first protective layer is formed with a second via hole, the first metal layer is formed with a third via hole, and the first electromagnetic shielding layer, the first protective layer and the first metal layer are formed with the via holes, so that the thickness of the flexible circuit board in the bending area is smaller, the stiffness of the flexible circuit board is reduced, the flexible circuit board can fall due to self gravity, and the flexible circuit board is prevented from being damaged due to interference.
Specifically, when the first electromagnetic shielding layer forms the first via hole, the first protective layer forms the second via hole, and the first metal layer forms the third via hole, the first adhesive layer may not form the via hole, specifically, the first metal layer may be etched to form the third via hole after the first metal layer is formed, then the third via hole is filled with the flexible material, then the first adhesive layer is prepared on the first metal layer and the flexible material, the first protective layer and the first electromagnetic-proof layer are prepared on the first adhesive layer, and the first protective layer and the first electromagnetic-proof layer are etched to form the first via hole and the second via hole.
Forming vias for the three film layers in the first functional layer still suffers from the problem of the flex region of the flexible circuit board being thicker.

Through making first anti-electromagnetic layer form first via hole, first protection layer forms the second via hole, first glue film forms the third via hole, first metal layer forms the fourth via hole, make each rete all can form the via hole in the first functional layer, thereby reduce the flexible circuit board thickness that is located the flexion area, and make the width of third via hole equal to the width of fourth via hole, and the width of third via hole is less than the width of first via hole, the width of third via hole is less than the width of second via hole, can make first glue film and first protection layer remain partial material in the flexion area, play insulating and anticorrosive effect through the material of retaining, protect first metal layer, avoid first functional layer damage.
In one embodiment, as shown in fig. 2, the flexible circuit board 1 includes a first insulating portion 122a and a second insulating portion 123a disposed on the bending region 153, the first insulating portion 122a is disposed between the second insulating portion 123a and the substrate 11, the first insulating portion 122a is made of the same material as the first glue layer 122, the second insulating portion 123a is made of the same material as the first protective layer 123, and the first insulating portion 122a and the second insulating portion 123a are disposed on a side close to the first connection region 151. When setting up first insulating part and second insulating part and protecting first functional layer, can make first glue film and first protective layer remain partly in the etching process, obtain first insulating part and second insulating part, because first metal layer is formed with the via hole, first insulating part and second insulating part can fall, make in fact first insulating part set up at first metal layer, second insulating part sets up at first glue film, but first insulating part is first glue film whereabouts part, second insulating part is first protective layer whereabouts part, in order to reduce technology, improve preparation efficiency.
The problem that the flexible circuit board is warped upwards and damaged due to the fact that the stiffness of the flexible circuit board is large due to the fact that the width of a through hole of a second functional layer of a current display device is small is solved.
