请参照图1所示,本发明第一实施例提供一种窄边框液晶模块10,所述窄边框液晶模块100包含:一显示面板110、一背光模块120、一前框130、至少一膜上芯片型(chip on film, COF)的挠性封装组件140及至少一导引块150。本发明将于下文利用图1至2逐一详细说明第一实施例上述各组件的细部构造、组装关系及其运作原理。
请再参照图1所示,在本发明第一实施例的窄边框液晶模块100中,所述显示面板110包含一上玻璃基板111及一下玻璃基板112,其中所述上玻璃基板111及所述下玻璃基板112之间具有一液晶层,且所述下玻璃基板112的上表面的透明表面电路(未绘示)具有一连接部,作为电性连接之用。在本发明实施例中,所述连接部也可位于所述下玻璃基板112的下表面或端面,但不限于此。所述背光模块120包含至少一光学膜片121、一背板122及至少一胶框123,其中所述光学膜片121位于所述下玻璃基板112的下方,并以所述背板122承载所述光学膜片121。在本发明实施例中,所述光学膜片121例如可以包含至少一光学薄膜121a (optical thin films)、一导光板121b (light guide plate)及一反射板121c (reflector),但不限于此,其中所述光学薄膜121a设置于所述导光板121b的前方,而所述反射板121c设置于所述导光板121b的后方。所述背板122通常由金属板冲压制成,所述背板122具有一底板及数个侧板。所述背板122的底板及所述光学膜片121的下表面之间(或所述背板122的侧板及所述光学膜片121的侧表面之间)另具有至少一背光源,例如为具有数个发光二极管的电路板(即灯条,light bar)。
接着,在本发明第一实施例的窄边框液晶模块100中,所述胶框123通常由塑料制成或由塑料与金属板复合而成,所述胶框123具有一本体部及一肩部,其中所述胶框123的本体部是一直立的板体,其围绕于所述背板122周围;而所述胶框123的肩部则是由本体部水平向内延伸而成的,并用以承载所述显示面板110。值得一提的是,在本发明实施例中,所述下玻璃基板112的下表面设有一缓冲垫113,例如泡棉,其设置在所述下玻璃基板112及所述胶框123的肩部之间,以便提供吸震作用。另外,所述前框130通常由金属板冲压制成,其围绕于所述胶框123周围并用以固定所述显示面板110,且所述前框130与胶框123之间形成一容置空间200。在本发明实施例中,所述膜上芯片型的挠性封装组件140位于所述容置空间200内,并具有至少一芯片(chip) 141及一挠性电路板(flexible printed circuit, FPC) 142。所述芯片141例如为闸极(gate)驱动用芯片,其固定在所述挠性电路板142朝向所述胶框123的一表面上,而所述挠性电路板142的一端通过金属凸块热压合技术电性耦接于所述下玻璃基板112的上表面、下表面或端面上的连接部,及另一端则电性耦接于一驱动电路板(driving circuit board) 160,所述驱动电路板160可以控制所述芯片141,以便所述芯片141通过所述挠性电路板142控制所述下玻璃基板112的薄膜晶体管数组(TFT array)电路的开关切换。
再者,在本发明第一实施例的窄边框液晶模块100中,所述窄边框液晶模块100具有至少一导引块150,其位于所述容置空间200内及固定在所述前框130的一内侧面上。在本发明实施例中,所述导引块150具有一导引斜面151,其面对所述挠性电路板142,且所述导引块为一具缓冲吸震作用的泡棉块,又所述泡棉块优选为一导电泡棉。在本发明另一实施例中,所述导引块150也可以为一硅胶块,且所述硅胶块的硬度小于30度或者所述导引块150也可以为同样具缓冲吸震作用的其他块状材料。值得一提的是,所述导引块150的导引斜面151与所述挠性电路板142之间可以具有一间隙,也就是所述导引块150的导引斜面151与所述挠性电路板142并无接触。
再者,所述导引块150通过一双面胶与所述前框130的内侧面紧密接合。如图1及图2所示,所述导引块150为一个截面呈三角形的条状物,其结合在所述前框130的一角隅位置的二内侧面上。上述特征的优点在于:在将所述前框130组装在所述背光模块120上的期间,所述导引块150的设置可在所述挠性电路板142发生变形时,经由所述导引块150的导引斜面151的阻挡,而有效避免所述挠性封装组件140的挠性电路板142上翻剥落及损伤的问题,以顺利导引所述挠性电路板142的下端(及驱动电路板160)朝下并落在预定组装位置,故本发明确实能相对提高窄边框液晶模块的组装良品率。
此外,请参照图2所示,本发明第二实施例的封装构造相似于本发明第一实施例,并大致沿用相同组件名称及图号,但第二实施例的差异特征在于:在本发明第二实施例的窄边框液晶模块100中,所述导引块150的导引斜面151也可松配合或紧配合的抵靠接触所述挠性电路板142的外侧表面,其同样可以有效避免所述挠性封装组件140的挠性电路板142上翻剥落及损伤的问题,以相对提高窄边框液晶模块的组装良品率。
请参照图3所示,本发明第三实施例的封装构造相似于本发明第一实施例,并大致沿用相同组件名称及图号,但第三实施例的差异特征在于:在本发明第三实施例的窄边框液晶模块100中,所述导引块150为一个截面呈梯形的条状物,其结合在所述前框130的一角隅位置的二内侧面上。另外,膜上芯片型的挠性封装组件(COF)也可改为玻璃上芯片型(chip on glass,COG)的挠性封装组件,其中所述芯片141直接设于所述下玻璃基板112的上表面或下表面的透明表面电路上,此时所述挠性电路板142上不具有芯片,仅单纯电性耦接于所述下玻璃基板112及驱动电路板160之间。在本实施例中,所述导引块150的导引斜面151同样可以有效避免所述挠性封装组件140的挠性电路板142上翻剥落及损伤的问题,以相对提高窄边框液晶模块的组装良品率。
如上所述,相较于现有窄边框液晶模块因为膜上芯片型的挠性封装组件(Gate COF)的老化、局部剥落时,造成所述芯片型的挠性封装组件向上翘起而刺伤显示面板的缺点,本发明的所述窄边框液晶模块在增加了所述导引块的装设后,其确实可以有一阻挡的效果,进而限定所述芯片型的挠性封装组件或所述挠性电路板(FPC)所存在的空间,以达到窄边框的设计。
本发明已由上述相关实施例加以描述,然而上述实施例仅为实施本发明的范例。必需指出的是,已公开的实施例并未限制本发明的范围。相反地,包含于权利要求书的精神及范围的修改及均等设置均包括于本发明的范围内。
