The present disclosure claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 202011459065.4, filed with the Chinese Patent Office on Dec. 11, 2020, the content of which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.
The present disclosure relates to the field of display technology, and particularly to a module structure and a display device.
There is no flash lamp in the surrounding area of the display screen of the existing mobile phone due to space limitation, and consequently the mobile phone cannot take a clear picture when a selfie is taken in a dark environment. In order to take the selfie in the dark environment, the following light supplementation solution exists at present: when a person takes the selfie by the mobile phone, a selfie start signal is inputted into the mobile phone by triggering a hardware key or a touch pad, an infrared IR photosensitive device of the mobile phone detects ambient light, and if the ambient light is detected below a, then a processor turns on all the pixels of the display screen to achieve the highest transmission mode, and then a momentary high current is outputted to the backlight LED light (twice regular supply current under the limiting condition) to achieve the brightest white picture of the display screen. The light of the screen is casted to the person and the surrounding environment, the selfie is taken after the signal is inputted into a front camera, and after the selfie is completed, all settings are reset and the screen is restored to the normal display interface.
However, the above solution results in low light supplementation brightness due to the only twice regular supply current under the limiting condition, and the momentary high current may reduce the lifetime of the LED light, high power consumption occurs due to an additional supply current, and a delayed selfie speed happens due to excitation of a plurality of signals.
The present disclosure provides a module structure including a backlight sheet, a display screen, and a glass cover which are stacked, further including a light guide plate, LED lights, and a flexible circuit board disposed between the display screen and the glass cover, where the LED lights are located on a side of the light guide plate facing away from a display area, and the LED lights are electrically connected to the flexible circuit board.
The present disclosure further provides a display device including the above-described module structure.
In the drawings: 1—backlight sheet; 2—display screen; 3—glass cover; 4—light guide plate; 41—body portion; 42—wedge portion; 421—light-blocking layer; 5—LED light; 51—red LED light; 52—green LED light; 53—blue LED light; 6—flexible circuit board; 7—transparent optical tape; 8—light bar glue.
The technical solutions in embodiments of the present disclosure will be clearly and fully described below in connection with the accompanying drawings in embodiments of the present disclosure, and it will be apparent that the described embodiments are only some, but not all, embodiments of the present disclosure. Based on embodiments in the present disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without making inventive effort are within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.
Referring to
In the module structure, the light guide plate 4 and the LED lights 5 are arranged between the display screen 2 and the glass cover 3, on one hand, since the LED lights 5 are arranged in a non-display area, the light guide plate 4 and the LED lights 5 do not affect the screen ratio, normal display is achieved, on the other hand, in combination with
Therefore, the module structure of the present disclosure not only guarantees normal display without delay of selfie, but also improves brightness, increases the lifetime of the LED lights 5, and reduces power consumption.
In an embodiment, as shown in
On this basis, the side of the wedge portion 42 facing the glass cover 3 is parallel to the glass cover 3 and the side of the wedge portion 42 facing the display screen 2 is an inclined plane, i.e. the wedge portion 42 is in an inverted structure, through the inverted structural design of the light guide plate, not only the structural strength can be increased, but also the interference problem of the thickness of the wedge portion 42 to the overall module structure is also solved, thus guaranteeing that the module structure is not affected.
In some embodiments, the side of the wedge portion 42 facing the display screen 2 has a light-blocking layer 421 that prevents light rays from exiting from the side of the wedge portion 42 facing the display screen 2 to affect vision, thereby reducing difficulty in adjusting the light effect and increasing the surface uniformity of the light. It should be noted that the material of the light-blocking layer 421 described above may be black ink, which is convenient for implementation and is advantageous for reducing cost.
Further, on the basis of the above-described structure in which the light guide plate 4 includes the body portion 41 and the wedge portion 42, a thickness of the body portion 41 is in a range of 0.2 mm to 0.3 mm. Because the thickness of the body portion 41 is small, it is possible to convert the LED lights 5 from a line light source into a flat light source and the flat light source may be emitted from the glass cover 3, and the thickness of the overall module structure is not significantly increased, thus facilitating the thin design of the module structure.
On this basis, a thickness of the side of the wedge portion 42 on which the LED lights are mounted is in a range of 0.3 mm to 0.4 mm, and a distance between the side of the wedge portion 42 on which the LED lights are mounted and a border of the display area is 0.45 mm. The distance may ensure that the mounting site of the LED lights 5 avoids the display area so as not to affect the normal display.
It should be noted that the thickness of the side of the wedge portion 42 on which the LED lights are mounted may be adapted to the thickness dimension of the LED lights 5 to better increase structural strength and also to improve display effectiveness.
It should also be noted that, as shown in
Taking the above structure and bonding approach as an example, in conjunction with
In an embodiment, as shown in
Based on the same inventive idea, the present disclosure may further provide a display device including a module structure in any embodiment of the present disclosure, the display device in the present disclosure has good user experience since the module structure may guarantee a normal display while also increasing brightness during selfie, increasing the lifetime of the LED lights, and reducing power consumption.
It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and variations can be made to embodiments of the present disclosure without departing from the spirit and scope of the disclosure. Thus, it is intended that the present disclosure include such modifications and variations provided they come within the scope of the present claims and their equivalents.
