Description

阵列基板、液晶显示面板及液晶显示装置
本申请要求于2021年03月18日在中华人民共和国国家知识产权局专利局提交的、申请号为202110290698.5、发明名称为“阵列基板、液晶显示面板及液晶显示装置”的中国专利申请的优先权,其全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。
技术领域
本申请属于显示技术领域,尤其涉及一种阵列基板、液晶显示面板及液晶显示装置。
背景技术
液晶显示面板(liquid crystal display,LCD)具有低辐射、体积小及低耗能等优点,被广泛的应用于笔记本电脑、电视等各种电子设备中。
其中,液晶显示面板通常包括阵列基板(thin film transistor,TFT)、彩膜基板(color filter,CF)、夹在阵列基板和彩膜基板之间的液晶(liquid crystal,LC)以及密封胶框等。
阵列基板包括显示区和设置在显示区外的绑定区。由于阵列基板需要与各种电路进行绑定(bonding)以实现信号传递,因此,阵列基板上设置有绑定区,并在阵列基板的绑定区内设置有多个导电触片,其中,每个导电触片与阵列基板上的一条信号引线相连接。然后,阵列基板的导电触片再与外部的柔性电路板(flexible printed circuit,FPC)的金手指进行绑定,利用该结构可以将外界信号传递到阵列基板内部以控制显示画面。
但是,现有技术中,为了实现窄边框,阵列基板内信号引线的走线方向与导电触片的延伸方向通常设计成相互垂直的,这样,信号引线与导电触片连接起来就形成了L形弯折。若金手指在绑定导电触片时出现对位偏差,超出绑定区后延伸到其他导电触片连接的信号引线的上方时,当信号引线上覆盖的保护层被压破时,金手指会导致不同的信号引线之间导通,从而出现短路问题。
由此,亟待一种能避免上述短路问题的阵列基板。
技术问题
本申请实施例提供了一种阵列基板、液晶显示面板及液晶显示装置,通过在呈弯折状的信号引线上方的保护层中增设一层第二金属图案层,可以起到保护信号引线的作用,从而可以避免绑定金手指时通过金手指造成的短路问题。
技术解决方案
第一方面,提供了一种阵列基板,包括:依次层叠设置的衬底基板、第一金属图案层和保护层;所述阵列基板还包括:显示区和环绕所述显示区的周边区,所述周边区包括绑定区和非绑定区,所述绑定区位于显示区外至少一侧;
所述第一金属图案层包括位于所述绑定区且沿第一方向间隔排布的多个导电触片,以及位于所述非绑定区的多条呈弯折状的信号引线,所述导电触片靠近所述显示区的一端与对应的信号引线相连接,所述导电触片沿第二方向延伸,用于与待绑定电路板上的金手指进行绑定,所述第一方向平行于所述显示区距离与所述绑定区最近的边沿,所述第二方向与所述第一方向相互垂直;
所述保护层包括层叠设置的第一绝缘层和第二金属图案层,沿所述衬底基板的厚度方向,所述第一绝缘层位于所述第二金属图案层靠近所述衬底基板的一侧,其中,第二金属图案层位于所述非绑定区,所述第二金属图案层至少部分覆盖所述信号引线。
第一方面提供的阵列基板,通过在呈弯折状的信号引线上方的保护层中增加第二金属图案层,以使得金手指与导电触片进行绑定时,至少部分覆盖信号引线的第二金属图案层能承受一定的绑定压力,为信号引线提供保护,从而可以避免出现现有技术中绑定造成的短路问题。此外,第二金属图案层还可以与薄膜晶体管中的源极和漏极同层制备,由此,也不需要额外增加生产成本。
在第一方面一种可能的实现方式中,沿所述衬底基板的厚度方向,在所述保护层远离所述衬底基板的一侧还设置有位于所述绑定区的第三金属图案层;
所述第三金属图案层通过设置于所述保护层中的过孔与所述导电触片连接,所述第三金属图案层用于在所述导电触片与所述金手指绑定时,导通所述导电触片和所述金手指。在该实现方式中,通过第三金属图案层作为中间介质导通导电触片和金手指。
在第一方面一种可能的实现方式中,所述信号引线包括沿所述第二方向延伸的第一信号引线子部及沿所述第一方向延伸的第二信号引线子部,所述第一信号引线子部的第一端与所述导电触片相连接,第二端与所述第二信号引线子部的一端相连接;所述第二金属图案层包括多条金属保护线,所述金属保护线位于信号引线远离所述衬底基板的一侧。在该实现方式中,金属保护线位于信号引线远离衬底基板的一侧,可以防止信号引线之间互相短路。
在第一方面一种可能的实现方式中,所述金属保护线在所述衬底基板上的投影与所述信号引线在衬底基板上的投影重合。
在第一方面一种可能的实现方式中,所述金属保护线在所述衬底基板上的投影与所述第二信号引线子部在所述衬底基板上的投影重合。
在第一方面一种可能的实现方式中,位于所述第二信号引线远离所述衬底基板一侧的所述金属保护线包括多个子金属保护线;沿所述第一方向,相邻子金属保护线之间的第二间隔区的长度小于或者等于相邻两个所述导电触片之间的第一间隔区的长度;其中,不同的第二信号引线对应的所述第二间隔区,位于所述第一间隔区平行于所述第二方向的两条边沿的延长线之间。在该实现方式中,在金属保护线设置为多个子金属保护线的结构后,即使多个金手指均压破同一信号引线上的第一绝缘层,但是由于子金属保护线之间具有间隙,可以避免出现短路问题。
在第一方面一种可能的实现方式中,所述保护层还包括:第二绝缘层;

随着显示技术的发展,液晶显示技术已被广泛的应用于各种电子设备中。利用液晶显示技术进行显示的电子设备包括液晶显示装置,而液晶显示装置通常包括液晶显示面板和用于驱动液晶显示面板的驱动装置,液晶显示面板又包括阵列基板。本申请实施例提供了一种阵列基板,应用于电子设备中的液晶显示装置中。
其中,电子设备可以为智能手机、平板电脑、电子阅读器、车载电脑、导航仪、数码相机、智能电视机以及智能可穿戴设备等多种不同类型的电子设备。本申请实施例对此不进行任何限制。
图1示出了本申请实施例提供的一种液晶显示装置400的结构示意图。如图1所示,液晶显示装置400的主要结构包括框架1、盖板玻璃2、液晶显示面板3、背光模组4、电路板5以及包括摄像头等的其他电子配件。其中,电路板5为用于驱动液晶显示面板3的驱动装置,或者为驱动液晶显示面板3的驱动装置的一部分。此外,电路板5可以是柔性电路板。
如图1所示,液晶显示面板3包括阵列基板31、对置基板32、设置于阵列基板31和对置基板32之间的液晶层33、以及上下偏光层等。阵列基板31和对置基板32通过封框胶对合在一起,从而将液晶层33限定在封框胶围成的区域内。其中,当彩色滤光层设置于对置基板32上时,对置基板32为彩膜基板。
框架1的纵截面呈U型,液晶显示面板3、背光模组4、电路板5以及包括摄像头等的其他电子配件设置于框架1内,背光模组4位于液晶显示面板3的下方,电路板5位于背光模组4和框架1之间,盖板2位于液晶显示面板3远离背光模组4的一侧。
图1的液晶显示装置400中的光路传播顺序为:背光模组4射出,依次透过液晶显示面板3中的阵列基板31、液晶层33、对置基板32,再射出盖板2。
其中,在图1的基础上,图2示出了图1中的一种阵列基板31的俯视示意图。如图2所示,在该俯视示意图中,阵列基板31包括显示区10和环绕显示区10的周边区20,周边区20包括绑定区210和非绑定区220,绑定区210设置在显示区10外至少一侧,图2中以绑定区210位于显示区10外的下方一侧为例进行示意。
图3是图2中的P区域的结构示意图。图4是图3中的导电触片与金手指绑定后的结构示意图。图5是图4沿AA'方向的截面示意图。图6是另一种导电触片与金手指绑定后沿AA'方向的截面示意图。
如图2~图6所示,阵列基板31的显示区10中设置有用于进行显示的多种信号线11,绑定区210设置有沿x方向排布的多个导电触片21(如图3~图6中所示的M1~M4),非绑定区220中设置有多条信号引线22(如图3~图6中所示的L1~L4)。
应理解,显示区10的信号线11与绑定区210的导电触片21通过非绑定区220中的信号引线22相连接。信号引线22与导电触片21是一一对应的关系。基于此,导电触片21再与FPC的金手指40进行绑定,即,导电触片21与金手指40一一对应且连接,从而可以将电路板5提供的信号按照金手指40、导电触片21、信号引线22、信号线11的顺序传输至显示区10内部,以控制显示画面。
示例性的,如图3~图6所示,以四个导电触片21(如图3~图5中所示的M1~M4)为例,该四个导电触片21沿第一方向(如x方向)依次排布。每个导电触片21沿第二方向(如y方向)延伸,x方向和y方向相互垂直。
其中,每个导电触片21靠近显示区10的一端连接有一条信号引线22。该信号引线22用于与显示区10内部的信号线11进行连接。在布线时,该信号引线22的形状通常为弯折状,例如,信号引线22的形状可以为L形弯折,即,每条信号引线22可以包括沿第二方向y延伸的第一信号引线子部221和与第一信号引线子部221一端连接的且沿第一方向x延伸的第二信号引线子部222。该四个导电触片21中,每个导电触片21用于与FPC的一个金手指40相绑定。
基于上述结构,在现有技术中,为了尽可能满足窄边框的设计要求,通常会压缩信号引线22所包括的沿第二方向y延伸的第一信号引线子部221的长度,尽量增长沿第一方向x延伸的第二信号引线子部222的长度。
然而,如图4~图6所示,当导电触片21与FPC的金手指40进行绑定时,若由于设备精度有限或者对位标记位置设计等问题,造成金手指40出现对位偏差,没有准确覆盖到导电触片21的正上方,而延伸到了其他导电触片21连接的信号引线22上方,此时,虽然信号引线22上方还设置有保护层320,但是由于绑定时压力较大,金手指40非常有可能压破信号引线22上方的保护层320,从而将会导致金手指40连通不同的信号引线22,导致出现短路问题,进而导致阵列基板不能正常工作。
示例性一,本来只需要覆盖导电触片M1上方的金手指40由于出现对位偏差,还覆盖到了相邻导电触片M2连接的信号引线22的上方,此时,若金手指40在与导电触片M1进行绑定时,压破了与导电触片M2连接的信号引线22上方的保护层320(如图5所示的Q区域),将会使得导电触片M1所连接的信号引线L1和导电触片M2所连接的信号引线L2通过金手指40导通,从而导致出现短路问题。
示例性二,本来只需要覆盖导电触片M1上方的金手指40由于出现对位偏差,还覆盖到了导电触片M2、导电触片M3、导电触片M4连接的信号引线22的上方,此时,若金手指40与导电触片M1进行绑定时,压破了与导电触片M2、导电触片M3、导电触片M4上的保护层320(如图6所示的R区域),将会使得分别与导电触片M2、导电触片M3、导电触片M4连接的信号引线L2、信号引线L3、信号引线L4和信号引线L1通过金手指40导通,四根信号引线全部短路,导致阵列基板31无法正常工作。
有鉴于此,本申请实施例提供了一种阵列基板,通过在信号引线上方的保护层中增加至少部分覆盖信号引线的第二金属图案层,以使得金手指与导电触片进行绑定时,第二金属图案层能承受一定的绑定压力,为信号引线提供保护,从而可以避免出现现有技术中绑定造成的短路问题。
下面结合图2、图7~图16,对本申请实施例提供的阵列基板的结构进行详细说明。图7是本申请实施例提供的一种阵列基板中P区域的结构示意图,图8是图7中导电触片与金手指绑定后的结构示意图。图9是图8沿BB'方向的截面示意图。
如图7~图9所示,本申请实施例提供的阵列基板包括依次层叠设置的衬底基板300、第一金属图案层310、保护层320。
即,在衬底基板300的一侧设置有保护层320,在衬底基板310和保护层320之间设置有第一金属图案层310。
应理解,保护层320可以包括多层结构,本申请实施例对保护层30所包括层数和层间位置不做任何限制。
结合图2,该阵列基板31还包括:显示区10和环绕显示区10的周边区20,周边区20包括绑定区210和非绑定区220,绑定区210位于显示区10外至少一侧。
应理解,显示区10,指的是阵列基板31能够显示图像的区域,可设置在阵列基板31的中部区域,本申请实施例以设置于阵列基板31的中心且形状为矩形的显示区10为例。周边区20,指的是不能显示图像的区域,环绕显示区10设置,本申请实施例以环绕显示区10宽度一致的周边区20为例。周边区20用于布置电路走线及其他驱动的电子元器件。
应理解,绑定区210,指的是阵列基板31用于FPC的金手指40进行连接的区域,通常设置在显示区10外的一侧,本申请实施例以绑定区210位于显示区10的下方一侧为例。非绑定区220,指的是周边区20中除过绑定区210之外剩余的所有区域。
第一金属图案层310包括位于绑定区210且沿第一方向间隔排布的多个导电触片21,以及位于非绑定区220的多条呈弯折状的信号引线22,导电触片21靠近显示区10的一端与对应的信号引线22相连接。
其中,导电触片21沿第二方向延伸,用于与待绑定电路板上的金手指40进行绑定,第一方向平行于显示区10距离绑定区210最近的边沿,第二方向与第一方向相互垂直。
应理解,结合图7~图9,以显示区10、绑定区210均为矩形,绑定区210位于显示区10的下方一侧为例,第一方向平行于显示区10距离绑定区210最近的边沿,指的是显示区10下方靠近绑定区210的边沿,也就是说,第一方向为x方向。第二方向与第一方向相互垂直,则第二方向为y方向。
由此,第一金属图案层310包括位于绑定区210且沿x方向间隔排布的多个导电触片21,每个导电触片21沿y方向延伸,并且,每个导电触片21靠近显示区10的一端(上方的一端)与对应的信号引线22相连接。此处,导电触片21与信号引线22是一一对应的,这样,信号引线22与显示区10的信号线进行连接,这样通过导电触片21与待绑定电路板的金手指40相绑定,就能将信号从外界传输至显示区10,以控制显示画面。其中,待绑定电路板可以为FPC。
应理解,绑定区210的尺寸、导电触片21的尺寸、相邻导电触片21之间的间隔距离,均可以根据需要进行设置,本申请实施例对此不进行任何限制。
应理解,由于导电触片21之间具有一定的间隔,相应的,与导电触片21相连接的信号引线22之间也具有一定的间隔,而导电触片21的横截面宽度与信号引线22的横截面宽度可以相同也可以不同,由此,导电触片21之间的间隔和信号引线22之间的间隔可以相同也可以不同。此外,呈弯折状的信号引线22的走线方向可以根据需要进行设置,本申请实施例对此不进行任何限制。
应理解,第一金属图案层310可以与显示区10设置的薄膜晶体管(Thin Film Transistor ,TFT)中的栅极使用相同材料且同层制备的。
保护层320包括层叠设置的第一绝缘层321和第二金属图案层323,沿衬底基板300的厚度方向,第一绝缘层321位于第二金属图案层323靠近衬底基板的一侧,其中,第二金属图案层323位于非绑定区220,第二金属图案层323至少部分覆盖信号引线22。
应理解,保护层320可以在第一金属图案层310远离衬底基板300的一侧以及衬底基板300未铺设第一金属图案层310的区域整层铺设,其中,由于第一金属图案层310具有一定的形状,在第一金属图案层310上铺设的保护层320将随第一金属图案层310的形状变化该变化。例如,部分保护层320铺设在导电触片21的上方,部分保护层320铺设在导电触片21之间的间隔处,部分保护层320铺设在信号引线22的上方,部分保护层320铺设在信号引线22之间的间隔处。
或者,保护层320也可以在第一金属图案层310远离衬底基板300的一侧铺设,或者,保护层320也可以仅在非绑定区220中铺设,本申请实施例对此不进行任何限制。保护层320用于为导电触片21和信号引线22起到保护作用。
应理解,由于保护层320包括层叠设置的第一绝缘层321和第二金属图案层323,因此,沿阵列基板31的厚度方向,从下到上的膜层结构依次为,衬底基板300、第一金属图案层310、第一绝缘层321和第二金属图案层323。
由于保护层320包括了第一绝缘层321,并且第一绝缘层321位于第一金属图案层310和第二金属图案层323之间,因此,位于非绑定区220的第二金属图案层323与第一金属图案层310所包括的信号引线22不相邻。当然,保护层320在第一绝缘层321靠近第二金属图案层323的一侧,或者,在靠近第一金属图案层310的一侧之间还可以包括其他层,具体可以根据需要设置,本申请实施例对此不进行任何限制。
应理解,所谓的第二金属图案层323至少部分覆盖信号引线22指的是:位于非绑定区220的第二金属图案层323可以整层铺设,也可以仅铺设于信号引线22对应的上方,即,第二金属图案层323在衬底基板300上的投影与信号引线22在衬底基板300上的投影重合,第二金属图案层323还可以在信号引线22上进行局部铺设。
此处,第二金属图案层323的铺设面积,具体可以根据需要进行设置,本申请实施例对此不进行任何限制。
应理解,第二金属图案层323可以与显示区10设置的TFT中的源极和漏极使用相同材料且同层制备的。
可以理解的是,由于在保护层320中增加了一层的第二金属图案层323,不但可以为信号引线22提供保护,降低金手指40绑定时出现短路问题的可能性,而且,由于是在信号引线22的上方增设的,不用压缩非绑定区220中信号引线22的走线设计空间。此外,还可以与TFT中的源极和漏极同层制备,由此,也不需要额外增加生产成本。
本申请实施例提供了一种阵列基板,通过在呈弯折状的信号引线上方的保护层中增加第二金属图案层,以使得金手指与导电触片进行绑定时,第二金属图案层能承受一定的绑定压力,为信号引线提供保护,从而可以避免出现现有技术中绑定造成的短路问题。
可选地,作为一种可能实现的方式,如图7~图9所示,沿衬底基板300的厚度方向,在保护层320远离衬底基板300的一侧还设置有位于绑定区210的第三金属图案层330。
第三金属图案层330通过设置于保护层320中的过孔340与导电触片21连接,第三金属图案层330用于在导电触片21与金手指40绑定时,导通导电触片21和金手指40。
应理解,通常保护层320整层铺设,为了将导电触片21和待绑定电路板的金手指40进行绑定,需要在导电触片21上方的保护层320中开设过孔340,然后铺设第三金属图案层330,通过第三金属图案层330作为中间介质导通导电触片21和金手指40。本申请实施例对过孔340的数量、形状、具体位置均不进行任何限制。
应理解,第三金属图案层330可以与显示区10设置的像素电极使用相同材料且同层制备的。
还应理解,位于绑定区210的第三金属图案层330与位于非绑定区220的第二金属图案层323不接触。
可选地,作为一种可能实现的方式,保护层320还包括:第二绝缘层322。
沿衬底基板300的厚度方向,第二金属图案层323位于第一绝缘层321和第二绝缘层322之间。
例如,如图7~图9所示,沿衬底基板300的厚度方向,从下往上依次为衬底基板300、第一绝缘层321、第二金属图案层323、第二绝缘层322;此外,第一绝缘层321和第二绝缘层322还可以交换,此时,从下往上依次为衬底基板300、第二绝缘层322、第二金属图案层323、第一绝缘层321。
其中,第一绝缘层321和第二绝缘层322均整层铺设。
应理解,以第一绝缘层321位于第二金属图案层323下方,第二绝缘层322位于第二金属图案层323上方为例,第一绝缘层321可以与显示区10中设置的TFT的有源层同层制备,第二绝缘层322可以与显示区10中铺设的绝缘层同层制备。基于此结构,当一对金手指40与导电触片21绑定时,即使金手指40压破了信号引线22上方的第二绝缘层322,金手指40也只会和第二金属图案层323连接,还是可以避免信号引线22与其他信号引线22短路。
可选地,作为一种可能实现的方式,保护层320还包括:第二绝缘层322;
沿衬底基板300的厚度方向,第二绝缘层322位于第一绝缘层321和第二金属图案层323之间。
例如,沿衬底基板300的厚度方向,从下往上依次为衬底基板300、第一绝缘层321、第二绝缘层322、第二金属图案层323;此外,第一绝缘层321和第二绝缘层322还可以交换。此时,从下往上依次为衬底基板300、第二绝缘层322、第一绝缘层321、第二金属图案层323。
可选地,作为一种可能实现的方式,图10示出了一种信号引线22的结构示意图。信号引线22包括沿第二方向延伸的第一信号引线子部221及沿第一方向延伸的第二信号引线子部222,第一信号引线子部221的第一端与导电触片21相连接,第二端与第二信号引线子部222的一端相连接。
如图10所示,例如,信号引线L1包括沿第二方向y延伸的第一信号引线子部L11,以及沿第一方向x延伸的第二信号引线子部L12,第一信号引线子部L11的第一端(如下端)与导电触片21相连接,第二端(如上端)与第二信号引线子部L12的一端相连接,由此,形成的信号引线L1成L弯折形状。
同理,其他信号引线22也成L弯折形状。
基于此,第二金属图案层323包括多条金属保护线3230,金属保护线3230位于信号引线远离衬底基板300的一侧。
应理解,在保护层320中增设的第二金属图案层323可以包括多条金属保护线3230,金属保护线3230位于信号引线22远离衬底基板300的一侧,可以防止信号引线22之间互相短路。也就是说,金属保护线3230与信号引线22一一对应,金属保护线3230对对应的信号引线22起到保护作用。这样,相对于在非绑定区220整层铺设第二金属图案层323,可以节约一些材料。
可选地,作为一种可能实现的方式,图11是本申请实施例提供的另一种阵列基板31中P区域的结构示意图,图12是图11中导电触片与金手指绑定后的结构示意图。图13是图12沿CC'方向的截面示意图。
如图11~图13为例,金属保护线3230在衬底基板300上的投影与信号引线22在衬底基板上的投影重合。
应理解,若信号引线22为L形弯折,则在信号引线22远离衬底基板一侧的金属保护线3230也为L形弯折。例如,金属保护线3230如图11~图13所示的G1~G4。金属保护线G1~G4分别于信号引线L1~L4一一对应。
可选地,信号引线22的横截面可以为矩形或者为梯形。
可选地,金属保护线3230的横截面宽度与信号引线22的横截面宽度相等。
应理解,当信号引线22的横截面为矩形时,金属保护线3230的横截面宽度可以对应信号引线22横截面宽度(平行于衬底基板300的边长的长度),也即,金属保护线3230的横截面宽度与信号引线22横截面宽度相等;当信号引线22的横截面为梯形时,金属保护线3230的横截面宽度可以对应信号引线22横截面宽度(平行于衬底基板300的下底边的长度),也即,金属保护线3230的横截面宽度与信号引线22的横截面宽度相等。
可选地,作为另一种可能实现的方式,图14是本申请实施例提供的又一种阵列基板31中P区域的结构示意图。如图14所示,金属保护线3230在衬底基板300上的投影与第二信号引线子部222在衬底基板300上的投影重合。
应理解,由于金手指40绑定时,偏移的方向为第二方向,所以,为了节省材料,可以为仅在第二信号引线子部222的上方设置金属保护线3230,以起到保护第二信号引线子部222的作用。
可选地,作为另一种可能实现的方式,图15是本申请实施例提供的又一种阵列基板中P区域的结构示意图。图16是图15中第一金属图案层和第二金属图案层的结构示意图。
如图15和图16所示,位于第二信号引线子部222远离衬底基板300一侧的金属保护线3230包括多个子金属保护线3231。
应理解,每条金属保护线3230包括的子金属保护线3231的个数、每条子金属保护线3231的长度均可以根据需要设置,本申请实施例对此不进行任何限制。
沿第一方向,相邻子金属保护线3231之间的第二间隔区的长度小于或者等于相邻两个导电触片之间的第一间隔区的长度。
其中,不同的第二信号引线子部222对应的第二间隔区,位于第一间隔区平行于第二方向的两条边沿的延长线之间。
例如,沿第一方向x,相邻子金属保护线3231之间的第二间隔区S2的长度(如图16中所示的d2)小于或者等于相连两个导电触片21之间的第一间隔区S1的长度(如图16中所示的d1)。
在此基础上,例如,导电触片M1和导电触片M2之间的第一间隔区S1,平行于第二方向y的两条边沿的延长线分别为s1和s2,由此,在延长线s1和s2之间分布有多个第二间隔区,且每个第二间隔区对应一条第二信号引线子部222。
同理,其他两两导电触片之间的第一间隔区平行于第二方向的两条边沿的延长线之间也分布有第二间隔区,且每个第二间隔区对应一条第二信号引线子部222。
应理解,在图11~图13的基础上,多个金手指40分别与对应的导电触片21相绑定后,当多个金手指40均压破了信号引线22上的第一绝缘层,此时,若多个金手指40压破同一根信号引线22上的第一绝缘层321,则会通过不同的金手指导通,导致出现短路问题。因此,在金属保护线3230设置为多个子金属保护线3231的结构后,即使多个金手指40均压破同一信号引线22上的第一绝缘层321,但是由于子金属保护线3231之间具有间隙,可以避免出现短路问题。
示例性的,如图12所示,当沿第一方向排布的第1个金手指40和第2个金手指40均压破了信号引线L2上的第一绝缘层321,此时,第1个金手指40和第2个金手指40则有可能通过信号引线L2导通,进一步导致信号引线L1和信号引线L2导通。由此,如图15所示,当信号引线L2上方铺设的子金属保护线3231之间具有第二间隙区时,则可以隔离开第1个金手指40和第2个金手指40,避免出现短路问题。
本申请实施例还提供一种液晶显示面板,包括:对置基板和如上所述的阵列基板,以及设置在对置基板和所述阵列基板之间的液晶层。
本申请实施例提供的液晶显示面板的有益效果与上阵列基板对应的有益效果相同,在此不再赘述。
本申请实施例还提供一种液晶显示装置,包括:待绑定电路板和上所述的液晶显示面板;
待绑定电路板上设置有金手指,金手指与液晶显示面板中的阵列基板上的导电触片的形状相适应,金手指用于与导电触片相绑定。
本申请实施例提供的液晶显示装置的有益效果与上述阵列基板对应的有益效果相同,在此不再赘述。
以上所述实施例仅用以说明本申请的技术方案,而非对其限制;尽管参照前述实施例对本申请进行了详细的说明,本领域的普通技术人员应当理解:其依然可以对前述各实施例所记载的技术方案进行修改,或者对其中部分技术特征进行等同替换;而这些修改或者替换,并不使相应技术方案的本质脱离本申请各实施例技术方案的精神和范围,均应包含在本申请的保护范围之内。
