The circuit board 33 is disposed on the bonding substrate 32. The thickening layer 34 is disposed on a surface of the first backplate 31 away from the bonding substrate 32.


Optionally, the bonding substrate 32 includes a first substrate 321, a first wire 322, a connecting terminal 323, and a first insulating layer 324. The connecting terminal 323 is connected to the first wire 322. The first wire 322 is disposed in a same layer as the connecting terminal 323 and disposed on the first substrate 321. The first insulating layer 324 covers the first wire 322 and exposes the connecting terminal 323.


Optionally, the thickening layer 34 and the first backplate 31 are an integrated structure. That is, material of the thickening layer 34 is same as material of the first backplate 31. In other words, a thickened first backplate 31 can be prepared at an incoming end, and a thickened portion is the thickening layer 34.


In an embodiment, the material of the thickening layer 34 is different from the material of the first backplate 31. Optionally, an elastic modulus of the thickening layer 34 is greater than an elastic modulus of the first backplate 31, so as to increase a suppression effect on buckling occurring to the first backplate 31.


Optionally, the circuit board 33 can be a printed circuit board or a flexible circuit board. The circuit board 33 is electrically connected to the connecting terminal 323.


The bending portion 200 includes a second substrate 21, a second wire 22, and a second insulating layer 23 arranged in sequence.


The display portion 100 includes a second backplate 11, a third substrate 12, and a display module 13 arranged in sequence. Optionally, the display module 13 can be one of an organic light-emitting diode (LED) display module, a liquid crystal display module, a micro-LED display module, or a mini-LED display module. The display panel 1000 of the first embodiment is described by taking the display module 13 as an organic light-emitting diode display module as an example, but it is not limited to this.


Optionally, the first substrate 321, the second substrate 21, and the third substrate 12 are connected in sequence, and materials of the three can be same or different. In the display panel 1000 of the first embodiment, the first substrate 321, the second substrate 21, and the third substrate 12 are integrally formed.


The first wire 322 and the second wire 22 are connected. The second wire 22 is electrically connected to the display module 13. Materials of the first wire 322 and the second wire 22 are same, and they are integrally formed. Optionally, in an embodiment, the materials of the first wire 322 and the second wire 22 can be different.


The first insulating layer 324 and the second insulating layer 23 are connected. Materials of the first insulating layer 324 and the second insulating layer 23 are same, and they are integrally formed. Optionally, in an embodiment, the materials of the first insulating layer 324 and the second insulating layer 23 can be different.


In the display panel 1000 of the first embodiment, referring to FIGS. 1 and 4, an orthographic projection of the first backplate 31 on a plane of the bonding substrate 32 is a first projection 31a, and an orthographic projection of the circuit board 33 on the plane of the bonding substrate 32 is a second projection 33a.


The terminal portion 300 includes a first region 3a, a second region 3b, and a third region 3c. The first region 3a is an overlapping region of the first projection 31a and the second projection 33a.


In a first direction x, the second region 3b, the first region 3a, and the third region 3c are sequentially connected. The first direction x is parallel to a longitudinal direction of the first backplate 31. In addition, a second direction y is perpendicular to the first direction x.


Specifically, the second region 3b is connected to the first region 3a and is disposed on a side of the first region 3a. The third region 3c is connected to the first region 3a and is disposed on another side of the first region 3a.


The thickening layer 34 includes a first portion 341 and a second portion 342. The first portion 341 is disposed in the second region 3b. The second portion 342 is disposed in the third region 3c.


The first portion 341 extends from a junction of the first region 3a and the second region 3b to a side away from the first region 3a.


The second portion 342 extends from a junction of the first region 3a and the third region 3c to a side away from the first region 3a.


The display panel 1000 in the first embodiment disposes the thickening layer 34 corresponding to the second region 3b and the third region 3c on the first backplate 31, so as to reduce risks of wrinkling and buckling occurring to two opposite ends of the first backplate 31.


Optionally, in the display panel 1000 of the first embodiment, a length l1 of the first portion 341 is less than or equal to a length L1 of the second region 3b. In the first direction x, the second region 3b extends from a boundary of the first region 3a to a boundary of the first backplate 31.


A length l2 of the second portion 342 is less than or equal to a length L2 of the third region 3c. In the first direction x, the third region 3c extends from the boundary of the first region 3a to another boundary of the first backplate 31.


Understandably, the first portion 341 extends from the junction of the first region 3a and the second region 3b to the side away from the first region 3a, the longer the length l1 of the first portion 341 is, the farther the suppression effect transmitted from a middle of the terminal portion 300 can be. As a result, a buckling degree of a portion of the first backplate 31 corresponding to the second region 3b becomes smaller.


The second portion 342 extends from the junction of the first region 3a and the third region 3c to the side away from the first region 3a. The longer the length l2 of the second portion 342 is, the farther the suppression effect transmitted from the middle of the terminal portion 300 can be. As a result, a buckling degree of a portion of the first backplate 31 corresponding to the third region 3c becomes smaller.


Therefore, in the display panel 1000 of the first embodiment, the length l1 of the first portion 341 is equal to the length L1 of the second region 3b. The length l2 of the second portion 342 is equal to the length l2 of the third region 3c.


In an embodiment, the lengths of the first portion 341 and the second portion 342 are different.


Optionally, a width n1 of the first portion 341 is less than or equal to a width N of the first region 3a. A width n2 of the second portion 342 is less than or equal to the width N of the first region 3a.


According to experiments, as long as the first portion 341 is disposed in the second region 3b, and the second portion 342 is disposed in the third region 3c, the buckling degree of the two opposite ends of the first backplate 31 can be relieved. When the widths of the first portion 341 and the second portion 342 are equal to the width of the first region 3a, an effectiveness of relieving the buckling degree of the two opposite ends of the first backplate 31 is the best.


Therefore, in the display panel 1000 of the first embodiment, the widths of the first portion 341 and the second portion 342 are equal to the width of the first region 3a.


In an embodiment, the width n1 of the first portion 341 is greater than the width N of the first region 3a and is less than or equal to the width of the first backplate 31. The width n2 of the second portion 342 is greater than the width N of the first region 3a and is less than or equal to the width of the first backplate 31.


In an embodiment, the widths of the first portion 341 and the second portion 342 are different.


Optionally, from the junction of the first region 3a and the second region 3b to a direction away from the first region 3a, a thickness d of the first portion 341 progressively decreases or remains constant.


When the thickness of the first portion 341 remains constant, the suppression effect on the buckling occurring to the first backplate 31 is better than that when the thickness of the first portion 341 progressively decreases. However, the thickness of the first portion 341 configured to progressively decrease can save material on the one hand and save space for installation of other devices on the other hand.


In the display panel 1000 of the first embodiment, from the junction of the first region 3a and the second region 3b to the direction away from the first region 3a, the thickness of the first portion 341 remains constant.


Optionally, from the junction of the first region 3a and the third region 3c to a direction away from the first region 3a, a thickness d of the second portion 342 progressively decreases or remains constant.


When the thickness of the second portion 342 remains constant, the suppression effect on the buckling occurring to the first backplate 31 is better than that when the thickness of the second portion 342 progressively decreases. However, the thickness of the second portion 342 configured to progressively decrease can save material on the one hand and save space for installation of other devices on the other hand.


In the display panel 1000 of the first embodiment, from the junction of the first region 3a and the second region 3b to a direction away from the first region 3a, the thickness of the first portion 341 remains constant. From the junction of the first region 3a and the third region 3c to the direction away from the first region 3a, the thickness of the second portion 342 remains constant.


Optionally, a thickness of the thickening layer 34 is less than 900 microns. Because a bending diameter of the bending portion 200 is approximately 900 microns, this configuration ensures that the bending portion 200 can be bent to an optimal state.


Please refer to FIG. 5. A display panel 2000 of a second embodiment has following structural features added to the display panel 1000 of the first embodiment.


The thickening layer 34 further includes a third portion 343 and a fourth portion 344. The third portion 343 is disposed in the first region 3a, and the third portion 343 is connected to the first portion 341. The fourth portion 344 is disposed in the first region 3a, and the fourth portion 344 is connected to the second portion 342.


The third portion 343 is not connected to the fourth portion 344.


The display panel 2000 of the second embodiment is provided with the third portion 343 and the fourth portion 344 to increase the suppression effect of the thickening layer 34 on the buckling occurring to the two opposite ends of the first backplate 31.


Optionally, widths n3 and n4 of the third portion 343 and the fourth portion 344 are equal to the width N of the first region 3a.


In an embodiment, the width n3 of the third portion 343 is greater than the width N of the first region 3a and is less than or equal to the width of the first backplate 31. The width n4 of the fourth portion 344 is greater than the width N of the first region 3a and is less than or equal to the width of the first backplate 31.


In an embodiment, the width n3 of the third portion 343 is less than the width N of the first region 3a. The width n4 of the fourth portion 344 is less than the width N of the first region 3a.


Optionally, a lengths 13 and 14 of the third portion 343 and the fourth portion 344 are less than the length of the first region 3a.


Optionally, thicknesses of the third portion 343 and the fourth portion 344 are equal. In an embodiment, the thicknesses of the third portion 343 and the fourth portion 344 are less than the thickness d of the first portion 341 or the second portion 342 to save space.


Optionally, materials of the first portion 341, the second portion 342, the third portion 343, and the fourth portion 344 are same.


Please refer to FIG. 6. A display panel 3000 of a third embodiment has following structural features added to the display panel 1000 of the first embodiment.


The thickening layer 34 further includes a third portion 343. The third portion 343 is disposed in the first region 3a. The third portion 343 is connected to the first portion 341 and the second portion 342.


The display panel 3000 of the third embodiment is provided with the third portion 343 to increase the suppression effect of the thickening layer 34 on the buckling occurring to the two opposite ends of the first backplate 31.


Optionally, a length l of the thickening layer 34 is less than or equal to the length L of the first backplate 31.


The thickening layer 34 includes the third portion 343. The longer extensions of the first portion 341 and the second portion 342 are, the farther the suppression effect transmitted from the middle of the terminal portion 300 can be. As a result, a buckling degree of the two opposite ends of the first backplate 31 becomes smaller.


Therefore, in the display panel 3000 of the third embodiment, the length l of the thickening layer 34 is equal to the length of the first backplate 31.


Optionally, a width n of the thickening layer 34 is less than or equal to the width N of the first region 3a.


In the display panel 3000 of the third embodiment, the width of the first backplate 31 is 11 millimeters, and the width N of the first region 3a is 5.5 millimeters. Please refer to FIG. 7. According to experiments, under a condition that the display panel 3000 is bent, and the length l of the thickening layer 34 remains constant, when the width n of the thickening layer 34 ranges from 0 millimeters to 5.5 millimeters, as the width n of the thickening layer 34 increases, the thickening layer 34 has a better suppression effect on the buckling occurring to the two opposite ends of the first backplate 31; when the width n of the thickening layer 34 ranges from 5.5 millimeters to 11 millimeters, as the width n of the thickening layer 34 increases, the thickening layer 34 has a worse suppression effect on the buckling occurring to the two opposite ends of the first backplate 31.


Therefore, when the width n of the thickening layer 34 is equal to 5.5 millimeters, which means that the width of the thickening layer 34 is equal to the width N of the first region 3a, the thickening layer 34 has a best suppression effect on the buckling occurring to the two opposite ends of the first backplate 31.


In an embodiment, the width n of the thickening layer 34 is greater than the width N of the first region 3a and is less than or equal to the width of the first backplate 31.


Optionally, in the first direction x, from a center line Q of the first region 3a to a direction away from the center line Q, the thickness of the thickening layer 34 progressively decreases or remains constant.


When the thickness of the thickening layer 34 remains constant, the suppression effect on the buckling occurring to the first backplate 31 is better than that when the thickness of the thickening layer 34 progressively decreases. However, the thickness of the thickening layer 34 configured to progressively decrease can save material on the one hand and save space for installation of other devices on the other hand.


In the display panel 3000 of the third embodiment, from the center line Q of the first region 3a to the direction away from the center line Q, the thickness of the thickening layer 34 remains constant.


Optionally, the thickness of the thickening layer 34 is less than 900 microns. Because a bending diameter of the bending portion 200 is approximately 900 microns, this configuration ensures that the suppression effect on the buckling occurring to the two opposite ends of the first backplate 31 can be maximized when the bending portion 200 is bent to the optimal state.
