It is to be understood that the described embodiments are only a few embodiments of the present disclosure, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the described embodiments of the disclosure without any inventive step, are within the scope of protection of the disclosure.

To maintain the following description of the embodiments of the present disclosure clear and concise, a detailed description of known functions and known components have been omitted from the present disclosure.
In the process of preparing the organic light-emitting display panel, the mask size of each generation line is fixed, and the effective exposure area is fixed. When the size of the evaporated substrate is small, the effective exposure area of the photomask can be divided into different areas, and the different areas respectively have different exposure patterns. Through the translation and alignment processes of the substrate, different exposure areas (shots) of the substrate can be realized on one photomask, as shown in fig. 1, so that the exposure time and the cost of the back plate film layer are saved. When a photomask is divided for multiple times, due to the limitations of manufacturing precision, exposure diffraction zone and equipment precision, a part which cannot be exposed exists between two effective exposure zones, namely a substrate ineffective zone. If the organic light-emitting material is normally evaporated in the inactive area of the substrate, the organic film layer and the substrate are often peeled off due to the invasion of water and oxygen in the subsequent process steps.
In the process of evaporating each layer of organic luminescent material to a substrate, corresponding Metal Mask plates are used, and are divided into a Fine Metal Mask plate (Fine Metal Mask) and a Common layer Metal Mask plate (Common Metal Mask) which are respectively used for evaporating red R, green G and blue B pixel luminescent materials and organic or Metal materials of a Common layer. In order to prevent the organic material from being deposited on the substrate, the corresponding substrate inactive area on the metal mask plate needs to be shielded. In the traditional manufacturing process of the metal mask plate assembly, in order to completely attach a fine metal mask plate to a substrate, the supporting mask plate (F-mask) and the fine metal mask plate (FMM) need to be subjected to a mesh-opening process at the corresponding position of the organic material accurately evaporated on the organic light-emitting substrate, and the stretched metal mask plate is laser-welded on a metal Frame (Frame) to be assembled into a complete mask plate (MFA). When the corresponding position F-mask or FMM is adopted for the substrate invalid area shielding method without opening, the problems of poor shadow (shadow) and color mixing and the like caused by deformation due to uneven stress distribution in the screen tensioning process are easily caused.
