The plurality of reflection assemblies 34 are disposed on a side of the light emitting assembly 33 opposite to the driving circuit layer 32, that is, the reflection assemblies 34 are disposed on a light emitting side of the light emitting assembly 33, the light emitting side of the light emitting assembly 33 is a side of the light emitting assembly 33 opposite to the driving circuit layer 32, and one reflection assembly 34 is disposed in one of the peep-preventing sub-pixel areas a21, that is, the positions of the reflection assemblies 34 are in one-to-one correspondence with the positions of the peep-preventing sub-pixel areas a 21. The encapsulation layer 35 is disposed on the peripheral sides of the reflection assemblies 34 and on the side of the reflection assemblies 34 facing away from the light emitting assembly 33, i.e. the encapsulation layer 35 covers the reflection assemblies 34 to the light emitting assembly 33. The light shielding layer 36 is disposed on a side of the encapsulation layer 35 opposite to the reflection assembly 34, the light shielding layer 36 is disposed in the non-sub-pixel area A2, and a portion of the light shielding layer 36 is disposed in the plurality of peep-preventing sub-pixel areas a 21.

The reflective member 34 is covered by the light shielding layer 36 except for the intermediate portion.
Referring to fig. 3 and fig. 4 together, fig. 4 is a schematic view illustrating a first structure of a peep-proof sub-pixel area of a display panel according to a second embodiment of the application. In the embodiment of the present application, the ambient light includes visible light and ultraviolet light, and the solid arrows shown in fig. 4 are the propagation directions of the visible light, and the dotted arrows are the propagation directions of the ultraviolet light. The ambient light is transmitted to the reflective component 34 through the first light hole 36a, and the reflective component 34 reflects the ambient light to the light emitting side of the display panel 30, so that a portion of the ambient light is emitted from the light emitting side of the sub-pixel area A1, and the direction of the emitted ambient light is the direction of the large viewing angle display of the display panel 30.

Because the reflection assembly 34 is located in the peep-proof sub-pixel area a21, the direction of the ambient light reflected by the reflection assembly 34 to the light emitting side of the sub-pixel area A1 is the direction of displaying the display panel 30 with a large viewing angle, and when the display panel 30 is viewed from the large viewing angle, the image displayed by the display panel 30 cannot be clearly viewed, so that the display viewing angle of the display panel 30 is reduced, and the peep-proof function is realized. In addition, the reflection assembly 34 reflects the ambient light to the light emitting side of the display panel 30 without electric power driving, thereby reducing the power consumption of the display panel 30 and further reducing the use cost of the display panel 30.
