图1为本公开的一些实施例提供的显示装置1000的俯视图。该显示装置1000可以是显示不论运动(例如,视频)还是固定(例如,静止图像)的且不论文字还是的图像的任何装置。更明确地说,预期实施例可实施在多种电子装置中或与多种电子装置关联,多种电子装置例如(但不限于)移动电话、无线装置、个人数据助理(Personal Digital Assistant,简称PDA)、手持式或便携式计算机、全球定位系统(Global Positioning System,简称GPS)接收器/导航器、相机、MP4视频播放器、摄像机、游戏控制台、手表、时钟、计算器、电视监视器、平板显示器、计算机监视器、汽车显示器(例如,里程表显示器等)、导航仪、座舱控制器和/或显示器、相机视图的显示器(例如,车辆中后视相机的显示器)、电子相片、电子广告牌或指示牌、投影仪、建筑结构、包装和美学结构(例如,对于一件珠宝的图像的显示器)等。图1中以该显示装置1000为手机为例进行示意。
该显示装置1000可以为曲面显示装置、可折叠显示装置或者可卷曲显示装置中的一种。
如图2和图3所示,显示装置1000包括主显示区A1和曲面显示区A2,曲面显示区A2即为显示装置1000弯折、卷曲或折叠的部分。
示例性地,显示装置1000可以为至少一侧具有曲面的显示装置,例如曲面显示区A2可以位于主显示区A1的左侧、右侧、上侧或下侧中的任意一侧或多侧,在此不做具体限定。
例如图2所示,显示装置1000可以为四周均具有曲面的显示装置,曲面显示区A2围绕主显示区A1设置。
可选地,显示装置1000可以为可折叠显示装置,例如图3所示,显示装置1000按照图1中的轴线Li折叠后,曲面显示区A2位于主显示区A1一侧。
示例性地,显示装置1000的边界大致为矩形。需要说明的是,“大致为矩形”是指,显示装置1000的边界的形状整体上呈矩形形状,但是并不局限为标准的矩形。即,这里的“矩形”不但包括基本矩形的形状,而且考虑到工艺条件,还包括类似于矩形的形状。例如,矩形的长边和短边在每个相交的位置(即拐角处)为弯曲状,即拐角处平滑,使得显示装置1000的边界在平面图的形状为圆角矩形。
如图4所示,显示装置1000包括显示模组100和封装组件200。封装组件200设于显示模组100的一侧。
在一些实施例中,封装组件200包括偏光片201、粘胶层202和盖板203。
其中,偏光片201设置于显示模组100的显示侧表面(即进行发光显示的一侧的表面),且至少与主显示区A1对应,偏光片201能够降低显示模组100显示侧表面的光线反射率,提升显示装置1000的显示对比度。
盖板203设置于偏光片201远离显示模组100的一侧,用于保护显示模组100。
粘胶层202设置于偏光片201与盖板203之间,用于粘接偏光片201与盖板203。
在一些实施例中,参阅图4,前述显示装置1000还包括显示驱动芯片300和柔性线路板400。
显示驱动芯片300位于显示模组100远离封装组件200的一侧,且与显示模组100电连接;柔性线路板400设置于显示模组100远离封装组件200的一侧,且与显示模组100电连接。显示驱动芯片300和柔性线路板400用于向显示模组100提供显示画面所需的数据信号。
可选地,显示装置1000还可以包括外壳。
在一些实施例中,如图5所示,显示装置1000还包括光学器件30,设于显示模组100的非显示侧(与显示侧相对的一侧)。
通过在显示模组100的非显示侧设置光学器件30,避免光学器件30占据显示模组100的显示侧的面积,实现显示模组100的显示面积的最大化利用,有利于实现显示装置1000的全面屏设计。
示例性地,显示装置1000还包括遮光层,遮光层覆盖光学器件30,避免环境光对光学器件30产生干扰,提高光学器件30的功效(可参阅图16)。
如图5所示,在相关技术中,前述显示模组100包括显示面板10、设于显示面板10一侧的支撑层20’。
该支撑层20’与主显示区A1和曲面显示区A2对应,即,在对显示面板10进行弯折形成曲面之前,支撑层20’在显示面板10上的正投影,同时位于主显示区A1和曲面显示区A2。显示面板10、粘胶层202和盖板203均为柔性结构,支撑层20’被配置为,为上述柔性结构提供刚性支 撑,避免上述柔性结构产生预期之外的变形,确保显示面板10能够具有并保持一定的形态。示例性地,支撑层20’可以由SUS304钢片制作形成。
示例性地,光学器件30为光学指纹识别器件。在相关技术中,光学指纹识别器件(光学器件30)为屏下设置,也即,设于显示面板10的非显示侧。在进行指纹检测时,显示面板10发出的光照射到位于显示面板10显示侧表面的手指上,光经过反射后形成带有指纹信息的返回光,该返回光经过显示面板10后照射在光学指纹识别器件上,以进行指纹的识别检测。
经本公开发明人研究发现,在显示装置1000为曲面显示装置的情况下,尤其在显示装置1000为可折叠显示装置的情况下,支撑层20’需要提供一定强度的支撑力,因此其材料为不锈钢等刚性材料,光透过率较差。当在屏下设置光学器件30时,返回光较难穿透支撑层20’,导致光学器件30难以采集到返回光的信息,导致光学器件30的功能实现效果较差,例如,指纹识别器件的指纹识别准确度和速度均较低。
为了解决上述技术问题,如图6所示,本公开实施例提供了一种显示模组100,包括显示面板10和支撑层20。
该显示面板10可以为液晶显示面板或光致发光显示面板。在该显示面板10为电致发光显示面板的情况下,电致发光显示面板可以为有机电致发光(Organic Light Emitting Diode,简称OLED)显示面板或量子点电致发光(Quantum Dot Light Emitting Diode,简称QLED)显示面板。在该显示面板10为光致发光显示面板的情况下,光致发光显示装置可以为量子点光致发光显示装置。
该显示面板10具有显示侧和非显示侧,显示侧是指显示面板10用于显示图像的一侧,非显示侧是指显示面板10背离显示侧的一侧。
如图6所示,支撑层20设于显示面板10的非显示侧。支撑层20包括支撑板21和与支撑板21连接的第一支撑部22,支撑板21设有第一开孔K1,第一支撑部22设于第一开孔K1内。
示例性地,第一开口K1的俯视图呈圆形、椭圆形或者多边形。
其中,如图6所示,支撑板21的靠近所述显示面板10的侧面,与第一支撑部22的靠近显示面板10的侧面大致齐平。即,支撑层20的靠近显示面板10的侧面整体大致位于同一水平面,可以保证支撑层20为显示面板10的各个位置提供均匀的支撑,避免显示面板10由于支撑层20不平整而发生凹陷或凸起,影响显示装置1000的良品率。
支撑层20的厚度大致为10μm~200μm。例如为10μm、18μm、30μm、 40.5μm、60.78μm、80μm、92μm、100μm、135.5μm、178μm或200μm。
通过控制支撑层20的厚度大致在10μm~200μm的范围内,可以使支撑层20对显示装置1000中的柔性结构提供足够的支撑力的同时,避免增加显示模组100乃至显示装置1000的整体厚度,有利于实现显示装置1000的轻薄化设计。
示例性地,支撑板21的材料为刚性材料,例如支撑板21的材料为不锈钢。在此情况下,支撑板21被配置为,为显示装置1000的柔性结构提供刚性支撑,确保显示装置1000能够形成并保持一定的形态。
示例性地,支撑板21的材料为铜、银、钢、铝或者铝合金等散热能力较强的材料。在此情况下,支撑板21被配置为,作为散热膜层对显示装置1000进行散热。
第一支撑部22的至少部分可透光。示例性地,第一支撑部22还具有一定的支撑力。
示例性地,第一支撑部22的光透过率大于或等于65%。例如,第一支撑部22的光透过率为65%、70%、72%、80%、90%或93%等。
通过设置第一支撑部22的光透过率大于或等于65%,使得第一支撑部22可以在满足支撑力,避免显示面板10在第一开口K1处发生下陷的同时,还可以为光学器件30提供光线传输通道。
如图6所示,示例性地,光学器件30设于第一支撑部22远离显示面板10的一侧。光学器件30在显示面板10上的正投影,位于第一支撑部22在显示面板10上的正投影的范围内。即,光学器件30与第一支撑部22在显示面板10的厚度方向上相互交叠。
示例性地,光学器件30在显示面板10上的正投影,位于第一支撑部22在显示面板10上的正投影的范围内。
需要说明的是,光学器件30可以为屏下摄像头、指纹识别器件、3D人脸识别器件、虹膜识别器件、近距离传感器等可以依靠光学传感器实现特定功能的器件。
本公开实施例提供的显示模组100通过在支撑层20设置支撑板21和可以透光的第一支撑部22,使得支撑层20满足对显示装置1000的柔性结构(例如显示面板10、粘胶层202和盖板203等)的支撑效果,同时,增大支撑层20的与光学器件30对应的位置处的光透过率,使得光学器件30可以穿透支撑层20,从而使得返回光可以有效到达显示面板10的显示侧表面,保证光学器件30可以有效地实现其特定功能,从而使光学器件30,例如光学指纹识 别器件有效地应用于柔性显示装置,尤其可以应用于对支撑层20支撑性需求较大的可折叠显示装置中,拓展了光学器件30的应用场景。
在示例性实施例中,如图4所示,前述显示模组100还包括背膜40。
背膜40设于显示面板10远离封装组件200的一侧。其用于保护显示面板10非显示侧,同时,背膜40为显示面板10的弯折提供一定的支撑力,避免显示面板10弯折时应力不均匀导致开裂。
示例性地,如图4所示,背膜40可以包括相互断开的两部分,其中的一部分背膜40可以随着显示面板10被弯折,在这种情况下,相互断开的两部分之间没有背膜40的材料,从而暴露显示面板10的弯折部分,可以降低显示面板10的弯折部分的弯折阻力。
示例性地,背膜40由柔性材料制成。
示例性地,背膜40的材料可以为聚对苯二甲酸类塑料,例如为聚对苯二甲酸乙二酯(Polyethylene Terephthalate,简称PET)。背膜40的材料还可以为聚酰亚胺(Polyimide,简称PI)或环烯烃聚合物(Cyclo Olefin Polymer,简称COP)。
在示例性实施例中,如图4所示,前述显示模组100还包括曲面层40A。
曲面层40A设置于背膜40远离显示面板10的一侧,其预设有一定的弧度,以作为显示模组100其他结构层(显示面板10和封装组件200等)的弯折角度的参照。
在一些实施例中,如图6所示,第一支撑部22设于第一开孔K1内,第一支撑部22为透明材质。第一支撑部22的垂直于显示面板10的方向上的侧壁,与第一开孔K1的孔壁固定连接。
示例性地,如图6所示,第一支撑部22完全填充第一开孔K1。
示例性地,第一支撑部22具有一定的支撑力。
示例性地,第一支撑部22靠近显示面板10的侧面与支撑板21靠近显示面板10的侧面位于同一水平面,第一支撑部22远离显示面板10的侧面与支撑板21远离显示面板10的侧面位于同一水平面。可以避免第一支撑部22相对于支撑板21凸起或下凹导致的显示面板10的显示侧表面发生凸起或下陷的情况。
示例性地,光学器件30在显示面板10上的正投影,位于第一开孔K1在显示面板10上的正投影的范围内。例如,第一开孔K1的直径大于光学器件30沿平行于显示面板10显示侧表面的方向上的最大尺寸。例如,第一开孔K1的直径与光学器件30沿平行于显示面板10显示侧表面的方向上的尺寸之 间的差值大于或等于0.2mm。
示例性地,光学器件30在显示面板10上的正投影,位于第一支撑部22在显示面板10上的正投影的范围内。即,第一支撑部22与发光器件30在显示面板10的厚度方向上相对应,发光器件30在显示面板10上的正投影,处于第一支撑部22在显示面板10上的正投影的范围内。可以保证返回光可以最大程度地穿透支撑层20,提高光学器件30的灵敏度和准确度。
通过在支撑板21上的与光学器件30对应的位置开设第一开孔K1,并在第一开孔K1内设置能够透光的第一支撑部22,使得返回光可以穿透支撑层20,有效提高光学器件30的信息采集效果,使得光学器件30可以在不影响其功能实现效果的情况下,有效地应用于柔性显示装置中,例如应用于可折叠显示装置中;同时,第一支撑部22还具有一定的支撑力,可以避免由于开设第一开孔K1导致支撑层20局部支撑性差,而造成柔性显示装置的柔性结构(例如显示面板10、粘胶层202和盖板203等)朝向第一开孔K1凹陷,使得显示面板10的显示侧表面出现模印等不良现象。
示例性地,第一支撑部22包括以下三个特征中的至少一个特征:
第一个特征:第一支撑部22的材料可以包括超薄柔性玻璃(Ultra Thin Glass,简称UTG)。或者,第一支撑部22的材料可以包括聚甲基丙烯酸甲酯(polymethyl methacrylate,简称PMMA)。其中,超薄柔性玻璃的厚度可以小于或等于50μm,例如为10μm、30μm、35μm或45.8μm。UTG或者PMMA作为第一支撑部22可以同时满足支撑层20对于光透过率和支撑力的需求。
第二个特征:第一支撑部22的光透过率大于或等于90%。例如,第一支撑部22的光透过率为90.1%、92%、92.55%、95%或98%。从而可以满足光学器件30在屏下设置时对于支撑层20的光透过率的要求,提高光学器件30的功效。
第三个特征:第一支撑部22的弹性模量大于或等于3Gpa。例如,第一支撑部22的弹性模量为3.5Gpa、3.51Gpa、3.513Gpa、3.6Gpa、4Gpa或5Gpa。以便提供一定的支撑力,避免在第一开孔K1处因为支撑力不足导致的显示面板10下陷的问题。
通过使得第一支撑部22具有一定的光透过率以及满足一定的弹性模量,使得第一支撑部22既可以提供一定的支撑力,又可以满足光学器件30需要的光透过率,从而使得光学器件30,例如光学指纹识别器件可以有效地应用于柔性显示装置中,从而改善光学器件30无法应用到可折叠显示装置中,或者无法高效地应用到可折叠显示装置中的情况。
在示例性实施例中,如图7和图8所示,支撑层20还包括粘接部23。
粘接部23设于第一支撑部22和第一开孔K1的孔壁之间,支撑板21和第一支撑部22之间通过粘接部23连接。
通过在第一支撑部22和第一开孔K1的孔壁之间设置粘接部23,使得第一支撑部22稳固地固定在第一开孔K1内,避免由于在外力作用下导致第一支撑部22相对于支撑板21更靠近或更远离显示面板10,从而导致显示面板10的显示侧表面出现凸起或下凹等缺陷。
示例性地,粘接部23的材料包括遮光材料。例如,粘接部23为黑色不透光材料。
通过将粘接部23设置为遮光材料,减少环境光对光学器件30产生干扰,提高光学器件30采集的信息的准确度。
示例性地,粘接部23在显示面板10上的正投影,与光学器件30在显示面板10上的正投影相互错开。即,粘接部23和光学器件30在显示面板10的厚度方向上相互错开,从而避免粘接部23阻挡光学器件30的光线发射和收集,提高光学器件30的功能实现的准确度和速度。
示例性地,粘接部23包括以下两个特征中的至少一个特征:
第一个特征:粘接部23的材料包括单组分环氧胶。
第二个特征:粘接部23的粘度为10000cP~20000cP。例如,粘接部23的粘度为10000cP、12000cP、15300cP或20000cP。
通过将粘接部23的黏度控制在10000cP~20000cP,可以在保证粘接部23的粘接力度的同时,降低粘接部23的流动性,从而避免粘接部23在粘接过程中发生溢流。
如图7和图8所示,第一支撑部22和第一开孔K1的孔壁之间的间距L1为15μm~500μm。也即,粘接部23的厚度(沿垂直于第一开孔K1内壁的方向上的尺寸)为15μm~500μm。例如,粘接部23的厚度为15μm、20μm、50μm、75μm、100μm、172.5μm、200μm、350μm或500μm。
通过设置粘接部23的材质、黏度和尺寸等,使得第一支撑部23稳固地设于第一开孔K1内,保证第一支撑部23靠近显示面板10的侧面与支撑板21靠近显示面板10的侧面处于同一水平面,第一支撑部23远离显示面板10的侧面与支撑板21远离显示面板10的侧面处于同一水平面,避免显示面板10显示侧表面发生下凹或突出等情况。
在一些实施例中,如图9所示,第一支撑部22包括多个支撑条22A,至少两个支撑条22A与第一开孔K1的孔壁连接;多个支撑条22A以及第一开 孔K1的孔壁围成多个第二开孔K2。所述第一开孔K1的孔壁的至少部分同时作为第二开孔K2的孔壁。
示例性地,多个支撑条22A与支撑板21固定连接或一体成型。
示例性地,支撑条22A的厚度(沿垂直于显示面板10的显示侧表面的方向上的尺寸),大致等于支撑板21的厚度(沿垂直于显示面板10的显示侧表面的方向上的尺寸)。
示例性地,支撑条22A靠近显示面板10的侧面,与支撑板21靠近显示面板10的侧面处于同一水平面,支撑条22A远离显示面板10的侧面,与支撑板21远离显示面板10的侧面处于同一水平面。可以避免支撑条22A相对于支撑板21出现凸起或者下凹的情况,从而避免显示面板10的显示侧表面发生鼓包或者下陷的情况。
示例性地,相邻两个第二开孔K2之间设有一个支撑条22A。
示例性地,一个第二开孔K2在显示面板10上的正投影呈正多边形、圆形或椭圆形。
示例性地,每个第二开孔K2在显示面板10上的正投影的面积,小于或等于光学器件30在显示面板10上的正投影的0.2倍。即,一个光学器件30对应尺寸小于光学器件30的多个第二开孔K2。
设计小尺寸的第二开孔K2可以避免显示装置1000的柔性结构发生下陷,同时,多个第二开孔K2又可以保证支撑层20具有一定的光透过性,提高光学器件30在柔性显示装置中的适用性。
光学器件30在显示面板10上的正投影,位于多个第二开孔K2在显示面板10上的正投影所在的区域内。从而使得返回光可以最大程度地通过多个第二开孔K2穿透支撑层20,提高光学器件30的灵敏度和准确度。
示例性地,设有多个第二开孔K2的第一支撑部22的整体的光透过率大致大于或等于65%。
示例性地,如图10所示,多个支撑条22A以及第一开孔K1的孔壁连接,形成蜂窝状结构或网格状结构。蜂窝状结构或网格状结构可以将显示装置1000的柔性结构撑住,为柔性结构提高一定的支撑力,有效避免柔性结构发生逾期之外的形变,例如,柔性结构发生下陷,导致显示面板10的显示侧表面在对应发光器件30的位置发生模印。
通过设置第一支撑部22的多个支撑条22A中的至少两个支撑条22A与第一开孔K1的孔壁连接,多个支撑条22A以及第一开孔K1的孔壁围成多个第二开孔K2,当设置光学器件30,光学器件30在显示面板10上的正投影, 位于多个第二开孔K2在显示面板10上的正投影所在的区域内的情况下,可以使得第一支撑部22呈网格状,网格状第一支撑部22中的网格,即第二过孔K2,为光学器件30提供透光的通道,提升支撑层20的光透过率,增强光学器件30在柔性显示装置中的适用性;同时,网格状第一支撑部22中的荆条(即支撑条22A)提供一定的支撑力,避免显示装置1000中的柔性结构在对应光学器件30的位置处发生形变,例如发生下陷,导致显示面板10的显示侧表面出现模印等不良现象。
因此,本公开实施例提供的显示模组100在提高光学器件30在柔性显示装置中的适用性的同时,保证柔性显示装置原有的结构特点,避免设置光学器件30导致柔性显示装置中的柔性结构发生形变。
示例性地,第二开孔K2中还可以填充UTG材料或者填充PMMA材料,可以在满足光透过率的情况下,进一步提高第一支撑部22的支撑力,提高支撑层20的强度。
在示例性实施例中,如图11所示,显示面板10包括多个子像素P。
示例性地,多个子像素P呈阵列分布,子像素P能够发射颜色光,每个子像素P均对应包括发光区P’,子像素P发出的颜色光从发光区P’射出。
多个支撑条22A在显示面板10上的正投影,与多个子像素P的发光区P’相互错开。例如,支撑条22A位于相邻的两个子像素P的发光区P’之间,避免支撑条22A遮住发光区P’后阻挡子像素P颜色光的发射路径,从而避免降低显示装置1000的发光效果。
示例性地,支撑条22A的宽度L2,小于或等于相邻两个子像素P的发光区P’之间的间距L3。从而避免支撑条22A遮挡子像素P的发光区P’,避免降低显示装置1000的发光效果。
例如,当相邻设置的两个子像素P的发光区P’之间的间距L3大致为50μm时,支撑条22A的宽度L2大致小于或等于520μm。
示例性地,一个第二开孔K2的面积,大于或等于一个子像素P的发光区P’的面积。
示例性地,设置发光区P’与第二开孔K2位置对应,例如,使得子像素P的发光区P’在显示面板10上的正投影,处于第二开孔K2在显示面板10上的正投影的范围内。从而保证与第一支撑部22位置对应的子像素P发出的颜色光能够完整地发射至显示面板10,避免降低显示装置1000的发光效果。
在示例性实施例中,如图11所示,多个第二开孔K2包括中心开孔K21和围绕中心开孔K21均匀设置的多个边缘开孔K22。
示例性地,如图11所示,第二开孔K2呈正六边形,多个第二开孔K2包括一个中心开孔K21和六个围绕中心开孔K21均匀设置的边缘开孔K22。其中,相邻两个第二开孔K2之间相对的边相互平行设置,从而使得多个第二开孔K2均匀分布,从而有利于手指指纹测试时按压力呈现均匀散开的趋势。
在可折叠显示装置中设置支撑层20,且在第一支撑部22中开设呈正六边形的多个第二过孔K2,经过仿真测试,在600g压力条件下对第二开孔K2的开孔区域施加压力,静止10s后,沉降量为0.2mm,满足显示装置1000对指纹传感器的要求。
在一些实施例中,如图12A所示,显示模组100还包括缓冲层50,设于支撑层20靠近显示面板10的一侧。
示例性地,缓冲层50的材料包括泡棉。
缓冲层50被配置为吸收显示面板10在装配过程中以及后续使用过程中所受到的应力和外力冲击,对显示面板10以及其他零部件形成有效保护。
缓冲层50包括第二支撑部50A。第二支撑部50A可透光。
示例性地,光学器件30在显示面板10上的正投影,位于第二支撑部50A在显示面板10上的正投影的范围内。即,缓冲层50的与光学器件30位置对应的部分(即第二支撑部50A)为透明材质,从而避免缓冲层50阻挡返回光,保证光学器件30可以有效地实现其特定功能,进一步提高光学器件30在柔性显示装置中的适用性;此外,拓展了光学器件30的设置位置,例如,即使在显示装置1000设有缓冲层50的位置依然可以设置光学器件30,可以实现光学器件30在显示装置1000的全屏的任意位置的设置。
示例性地,第二支撑部50A在显示面板10上的正投影,与第一支撑部22在显示面板10上的正投影至少部分重叠。而且,光学器件30在显示面板10上的正投影,位于第二支撑部50A在显示面板10上的正投影与第一支撑部22在显示面板10上的正投影相互重叠的部分的范围内,从而保证光学器件30可以有效穿透支撑层20和缓冲层50,避免支撑层20和缓冲层50遮挡返回光,提高光学器件30的有效性。
在示例性实施例中,如图12A和图13所示,缓冲层50整体为透明材质。即缓冲层50整体作为第二支撑部50A。
示例性地,缓冲层50靠近和远离显示面板10的两侧均设有胶层。
示例性地,缓冲层50包括以下四个特征中的至少一个特征:
第一个特征:缓冲层50的材料包括热塑性聚氨酯弹性体橡胶(Thermoplastic Polyurethanes,简称TPU)。从而使缓冲层50可以同时满足 一定的光透过率和支撑力。
第二个特征:缓冲层50的光透过率大于或等于92%。例如,缓冲层50的光透过率为92%、93%、93.5%、94%或98%。通过设置缓冲层50的光透过率大于或等于92%,使得缓冲层50可以为光学器件30提供光线传输通道,避免缓冲层50遮挡光学器件30造成光学器件30功效降低的问题。
第三个特征:缓冲层50的弹性模量为0.1Gpa~0.15Gpa。例如,缓冲层50的弹性模量为0.1Gpa、0.101Gpa、0.12Gpa、0.125Gpa、0.14Gpa或0.15Gpa。控制缓冲层50的弹性模量为0.1Gpa~0.15Gpa,以便实现缓冲层50的缓冲效果,便于缓冲层50吸收显示面板10在装配过程中以及后续使用过程中所受到的应力和外力冲击,对显示面板10以及其他零部件形成有效保护。此外,还可以使得缓冲层50具有一定的支撑力,利于实现显示装置1000的折叠设计。
第四个特征:缓冲层50的厚度(沿垂直于显示面板10的显示侧表面的方向上的尺寸)为0.1mm~0.12mm。例如,缓冲层50的厚度为0.1mm、0.102mm、0.11mm或0.12mm。从而保证缓冲层50的缓冲作用。
通过设置缓冲层50整体为透明材质,满足光学器件30对缓冲层50光透过率的要求,并设置缓冲层50具有一定弹性,例如弹性模量为0.15Gpa,从而保留缓冲层50吸收应力的作用,保证缓冲层50对显示面板10等结构的保护作用。
参阅图12B所示的应力模拟分析图,在图12B中,以光学器件30为光学指纹识别器件为例,对图12A中的显示装置1000中光学器件30所对应的位置进行受力分析,如图12B所示,由手指的施力中心a(也即光学器件30所在位置处的中心)至显示装置1000的边缘b,显示装置1000受到的应力均匀地扩散,且支撑效果良好。
在示例性实施例中,如图14所示,缓冲层50设有第三开孔K3。第二支撑部50A设于第三开孔K3内。
示例性地,缓冲层50除第二支撑部50A以外的部分的材料包括泡棉。
在第三开孔K3内设置具有支撑力的透光部件(即第二支撑部50A),从而在保证光学器件30对缓冲层50的光透过率的要求的同时,为显示装置1000的柔性器件提供一定的支撑力,也在第三开孔K3所在位置提供一定的缓冲能力,避免开设第三开孔K3导致第三开孔K3所在位置无法吸收外界冲击力而导致显示面板10、光学器件30或其他结构在第三开孔K3的位置处受到损伤。
光学器件30在显示面板10上的正投影,位于第二支撑部50A在显示面 板10上的正投影的范围内。从而保证返回光顺利穿透缓冲层50,避免缓冲层50阻挡光学器件30的光线而导致的光学器件30的功效降低的问题。
示例性地,第二支撑部50A包括以下三个特征中的至少一个特征:
第一个特征:第二支撑部50A的材料包括聚对苯二甲酸乙二醇酯(Polyethylene Terephthalate,简称PET)。PET材料作为第二支撑部50A,可以同时满足缓冲层50对于光透过率、支撑力以及缓冲效果的需求。
第二个特征:第二支撑部50A的光透过率大于或等于90%。例如,第二支撑部50A的光透过率为90%、91%、92.5%、95%或98%。从而可以满足光学器件30在屏下设置时对于缓冲层50的光透过率的要求,提高光学器件30的功效。
第三个特征:第二支撑部50A的弹性模量为0.5Gpa~1.5Gpa。例如,第二支撑部50A的弹性模量为0.5Gpa、0.65Gpa、1Gpa或1.5Gpa。以便提供一定的支撑力,避免在第三开孔K3处因为支撑力不足导致的显示面板10下陷的问题;同时,保留第二支撑部50A的缓冲能力,保证缓冲层50的抗冲击作用。
示例性地,第二支撑部50A的弹性模量与缓冲层50的弹性模量大致相等。从而保证缓冲层50所在膜层具有均匀的抗冲击能力。
示例性地,如图14所示,在支撑层20包括支撑板21和第一支撑部22,且支撑板21设有第一开孔K1,第一支撑部22设于第一开孔K1内的情况下,第一开孔K1在显示面板10上的正投影,处于第三开孔K3在显示面板10上的正投影的范围内。例如,第三过孔K3的半径大于第一过孔K1的半径,例如,第三过孔K3的半径与第一过孔K1的半径之间的差值大于或等于0.2mm。从而可以保证返回光穿透支撑层20后,能够最大程度上有效地穿透缓冲层50,提高光学器件30的功效。
在一些实施例中,如图15所示,显示模组100还包括粘接层60,设于缓冲层50靠近显示面板10的一侧。
粘接层60被配置为将缓冲层50贴附在显示面板10的一侧,避免缓冲层520脱落,从而增强缓冲层50的抗冲击性能。
示例性地,第二支撑部50A与粘接层60粘接。从而保证第二支撑部50A牢固地填充于第三开孔K3内,避免第二支撑部50A相对于缓冲层50凸出或凹陷,从而避免显示面板10的显示侧表面出现鼓包或模印等不平整现象。
在一些实施例中,如图16和图17所示,遮光层70设于显示模组100中的支撑层20的远离显示面板10的一侧,且覆盖光学器件30。遮光层60覆盖光学器件30,避免环境光对光学器件30产生干扰,提高光学器 件30的功效。
在示例性实施例中,如图16所示,支撑层20的支撑板21上的第一开孔K1在显示面板10上的正投影,位于遮光层30在显示面板10上的正投影的范围内。遮光层60覆盖光学器件30的同时,覆盖支撑层20中的第一过孔K1,从而保证第一过孔K1中通过的光线全部来自于光学器件30,避免环境光对光学器件30产生干扰,提高光学器件30的功效。
在示例性实施例中,如图17所示,在支撑层20的第一支撑部22包括多个第二开孔K2的情况下,多个第二开孔K2在显示面板10上的正投影,位于遮光层30在显示面板10上的正投影的范围内。遮光层60覆盖光学器件30的同时,覆盖缓冲层50中的第二过孔K2,从而保证第二过孔K2中通过的光线全部来自于光学器件30,避免环境光对光学器件30产生干扰,提高光学器件30的功效。
