This application relates to the field of touch control screen technologies, and more specifically, to a touch control screen, a screen module, and an electronic device.
In electronic apparatuses such as personal digital assistants, notebook computers, and medical apparatuses, touch control screens are widely applied. A touch control screen includes a transparent conducting layer with a graphical design, and can implement a touch control effect and a display effect.
Currently, flexible display technologies are developing rapidly. Especially, a touch control solution to a folding scenario is of great importance. An area that can be flexibly bent in a foldable electronic device can be referred to as a bending area. When the electronic device is bent, film dislocation and internal stress occur in the bending area, and a transparent conducting layer in the bending area is prone to break, causing a line in the transparent conducting layer to disconnect or impedance to increase. Ultimately, a touch control effect of a touch control screen worsens or directly becomes ineffective, seriously compromising reliability of the touch control screen.
This application provides a touch control screen, a screen module, and an electronic device. An end portion of a groove that is in a conducting layer of the touch control screen and whose component of length is greater than 0 on a y-axis is extended, where the y-axis is perpendicular to a bending axis. This reduces stress concentration at the end portion of the groove, thereby improving reliability of the touch control screen. In addition, the touch control screen in this application can be prepared simply by designing a pattern of a mask in advance. This features ease of operation and rapid deployment and is very practical.
According to a first aspect, a touch control screen is provided. The touch control screen can be bent along a bending axis. The touch control screen includes a conducting layer, the conducting layer includes a plurality of first grooves, the first groove includes a main slot and a first extension slot, the first extension slot is connected to a first end portion of the main slot, a component of a length of the main slot is greater than 0 in a direction in which the bending axis is located, a length of a projection of the first extension slot on an x-axis is greater than a length of a projection of the first end portion on the x-axis, the x-axis is perpendicular to the bending axis, and a plane in which the x-axis and the bending axis are located is a plane in which a surface of the touch control screen is located.
Therefore, in the touch control screen provided in this application, an extension slot that can be connected to the main slot is provided at an end portion of the main slot, so that a length of a projection of the extension slot on the x-axis can be greater than a length of a projection, on the x-axis, of the end portion that is of the main slot and that is connected to the extension slot, where the x-axis is perpendicular to the bending axis. In this way, when the touch control screen is subject to tensile force from the x-axis in a bending process, stress originally concentrated on the relatively small end portion of the main slot is distributed to the relatively large extension slot, thereby reducing stress exerted on a single force bearing point on the extension slot that serves as an end portion of the first groove. This can effectively reduce stress concentration at the end portion of the first groove, thereby reducing a probability that the conducting layer breaks and improving reliability of the touch control screen. In addition, the touch control screen in this application can be prepared simply by designing a pattern of a mask in advance. This features ease of operation and rapid deployment and is very practical.

This can better reduce stress concentration at the end portion of the first groove, thereby reducing a probability that the conducting layer breaks and improving reliability of the touch control screen.

The following describes embodiments of this application.
This application can be applied to various electronic devices that are configured with a touch control screen, and in particular, can be applied to foldable electronic devices. Some or all areas of a foldable electronic device can be bent. In this application, the some or all areas that can be bent are referred to as bending areas. In an embodiment, the foldable electronic device can be folded or unfolded. When the foldable electronic device is folded, the electronic device is bent along a central axis. The central axis can be defined as a bending axis. In addition, a direction parallel to the bending axis can be defined as a bending axis direction, and the electronic device can be bent along the bending axis direction.
For ease of description, an x-axis, a y-axis, and a z-axis that are perpendicular to each other are defined in this application. The y-axis is parallel to the bending axis, the x-axis is perpendicular to the bending axis and is parallel to a plane in which a surface of the electronic device is located, the z-axis is perpendicular to both the x-axis and the y-axis, and a thickness direction of the electronic device is parallel to the z-axis.
A touch control screen is also referred to as a “touchscreen” or a “touch control panel”, and is an inductive liquid crystal display apparatus that can receive signals input from a contact and the like. Touch control screens are used in electronic devices such as mobile phones, e-books readers, and digital cameras. Capacitive touch control screens are widely applied due to advantages such as a long service life, a high transmittance, and high accuracy. A capacitive touch control screen operates by sensing current of a human body. When a user touches the touch control screen with a finger, a stylus, or the like, the touch control screen generates electric signal changes for manipulating an electronic device. The following describes this application by using a capacitive touch control screen as an example. It should be understood that this application not only can be applied to a capacitive touch control screen, but also can be applied to other touch control screens, for example, a resistive touch control screen. This is not limited in any manner in this application.
A touch control screen includes a transparent conducting layer with a graphical design. The graphical design may form a border separation slot and a groove in the transparent conducting layer. Each border separation slot is isolated from all other border separation slots and all grooves, and each groove is also isolated from all other grooves. A border separation slot can isolate two adjacent areas in the transparent conducting layer to form a circuit for implementing a touch control effect. The two areas may be both electrode areas, or one of the two areas may be an electrode area and the other area is a non-electrode area, or the two areas are both non-electrode areas. An electrode area is also referred to as a line area, and is an area in which a line for transmitting signals is located or an area in which a graph that embodies a logic circuit is located. A non-electrode area is also referred to as a dummy area. Although the non-electrode area also has graphs (or decorative patterns), these graphs (or decorative patterns) are irrelevant to the logic circuit, but are designed for consideration of light reflection and diffraction. The groove is provided in some or all areas in the transparent conducting layer except the border separation slot, to implement a touch control effect and a display effect.
It should be noted that, that each border separation slot 1211 shown in
Referring to
It should be noted that a length direction of a groove can be construed as an extension direction from one end of the groove to the other end of the groove, regardless of a graphical design of the groove. In the extension direction, the groove may be of any shape. For example, as shown in
It should be understood that a length of a groove is greater than a width of the groove, where the length of the groove represents a size of the groove in a length direction of the groove, and the width of the groove represents a size of the groove in a width direction of the groove.
It should be further understood that due to reasons such as a processing error, that a component of a length of a second-type groove is equal to 0 on the y-axis can be construed as: the component of the length of the second-type groove is approximately equal to 0 on the y-axis. To be specific, when the component of the length of the second-type groove is less than a range threshold on the y-axis, it can be considered that the component of the length of the second-type groove is equal to 0 on the y-axis, for example, the groove 1212 shown in
In a foldable electronic device, a touch control screen can be bent along a bending axis, to fold or unfold the touch control screen.
When the electronic device is bent, film dislocation and internal stress occur in the bending area, and a transparent conducting layer in the bending area is subject to tensile force perpendicular to a bending axis direction or subject to tensile force in an x direction. Consequently, the transparent conducting layer in the bending area is prone to break, causing a line in the transparent conducting layer to disconnect or impedance to increase. Ultimately, a touch control effect of the touch control screen worsens or directly becomes ineffective, seriously compromising reliability of the touch control screen. In addition, an existing transparent conducting layer is usually prepared by using a transparent metal oxide, so that the transparent conducting layer has poor flexibility. As a result, the transparent conducting layer is more likely to break.
In this application, by analyzing a breakage phenomenon of transparent conducting layers, that when a transparent conducting layer in a bending area is subject to tensile force perpendicular to a bending axis direction, stress concentration occurs at an end portion of a first-type groove (for example, the groove 1213 shown in
Based on the foregoing analysis, this application provides a touch control screen. An end portion of a first-type groove that is in a transparent conducting layer and whose component of length is greater than 0 on a y-axis is extended. This reduces stress concentration at the end portion of the groove, thereby improving reliability of the touch control screen. In addition, the touch control screen of this structure can be prepared simply by designing a pattern of a mask in advance. This features ease of operation and rapid deployment and is very practical.
In addition, for ease of description, a first-type groove in a conducting layer is denoted as a first groove below.
The following describes the touch control screen in this application in detail with reference to
Referring to
Referring to
It should be understood that a length of the main slot is greater than a width of the main slot, where the length of the main slot represents a size of the main slot in a length direction of the main slot, and the width of the main slot represents a size of the main slot in a width direction of the main slot.
It should be noted that
In this way, an extension slot that can be connected to the main slot is provided at an end portion of the main slot, so that a length of a projection of the extension slot on the x-axis can be greater than a length of a projection, on the x-axis, of the end portion that is of the main slot and that is connected to the extension slot, where the x-axis is perpendicular to the bending axis. In this way, when the touch control screen is subject to tensile force from the x-axis in a bending process, stress originally concentrated on the relatively small end portion of the main slot is distributed to the relatively large extension slot, thereby reducing stress exerted on a single force bearing point on the extension slot that serves as an end portion of the first groove. This can effectively reduce stress concentration at the end portion of the first groove, thereby reducing a probability that the conducting layer breaks and improving reliability of the touch control screen. In addition, the touch control screen in this application can be prepared simply by designing a pattern of a mask in advance. This features ease of operation and rapid deployment and is very practical.
For descriptions of the border separation slot 221, the electrode area 223, and the non-electrode area 224, refer to the foregoing descriptions of these three terms. Details are not described herein again.
It should be noted that a graph of the border separation slot shown in
For ease of description, the following describes the first groove in this application in detail by using an example in which the first groove has an extension slot (which is denoted as a first extension slot 222-B1) that is connected to a first end portion of the main slot. The first end portion of the main slot is any one of two end portions of the main slot.
The component of the length of the main slot 222-A is greater than 0 on the y-axis. In other words, the main slot 222-A can be located in any direction provided that the length direction of the main slot 222-A is not perpendicular to the y-axis.
In an embodiment, referring to
Along the length direction of the main slot 222-A, a width of the main slot 222-A may be constant (as shown in any one of
The first extension slot 222-B1 that is provided at the first end portion of the main slot 222-A is intended for increasing a size of an end portion of the first groove 222 on the x-axis. Therefore, a length of a projection of the first extension slot 222-B1 on the x-axis only needs to be greater than a length of a projection of the first end portion on the x-axis.
In an embodiment, a width direction of the first extension slot 222-A may be parallel to the x-axis (as shown in any one of
In this way, stress originally concentrated on the relatively small end portion of the main slot can be distributed to the relatively large extension slot to a relatively large degree. This can better reduce stress concentration at the end portion of the first groove, thereby reducing a probability that the conducting layer breaks and improving reliability of the touch control screen.
This application does not limit a structure of an extension slot in any manner. Any structure of an extension slot whose length of projection on the x-axis is greater than a length of a projection of an end portion of the main slot on the x-axis falls with the protection scope of this application.
In an embodiment, referring to
In an embodiment, the length of the projection of the first extension slot 222-B1 on the x-axis is greater than or equal to 1.5 times the length of the projection of the first end portion of the main slot 222-A on the x-axis. This can better reduce single-point stress on the end portion of the first groove, thereby better reducing stress concentration.
It should be understood that the foregoing 1.5 times is merely intended for illustration. The length of the projection of the first extension slot 222-B1 on the x-axis may alternatively be greater than or equal to any multiple, greater than 1, of the length of the projection of the first end portion of the main slot 222-A on the x-axis. By principle, within a designable range, a longer projection of the first extension slot 222-B1 on the x-axis is preferred. For example, the multiple greater than 1 may be 1.2, 1.3, 1.6, or 2.
It can be understood that when the width of the main slot 222-A remains basically constant, a width of the end portion of the main slot 222-A is the same as the width of the main slot 222-A. When the width direction of the first extension slot 222-B1 and the width direction of the main slot 222-A are both parallel to the x-axis, the length of the projection of the first extension slot 222-B1 on the x-axis can be considered as a width of the first extension slot 222-B1, and the length of the projection of the first end portion of the main slot 222-A on the x-axis can be considered as the width of the main slot 222-A.
For example, referring to
In an embodiment, at least a part of a slot wall of the first extension slot 222-B1 is an arc-shaped slot wall. The arc-shaped slot wall may be provided at any position of the first extension slot 222-B1.
In this way, the arc-shaped slot wall is provided in the extension slot. This can reduce stress concentration in a local range caused by a sudden change of a shape of the extension slot.
In an embodiment, the arc-shaped slot wall may be formed based on a chamfer design. The arc-shaped slot wall may be formed by implementing a chamfer design at an intersection of two adjacent slot walls. For example, referring to
For example, a shape of the first extension slot 222-B1 may be a graph with a curve design. An extension slot including an arc-shaped slot wall can be formed through etching in a depth direction (a z direction) of the first extension slot 222-B1 based on the graph with a curve design. Optionally, a curvature radius of the arc-shaped slot wall is greater than 0.5 times a width of the first end portion that is of the main slot 222-A and that is connected to the first extension slot 222-B1. It is assumed that the curvature radius of the arc-shaped slot wall is denoted as ρ, and that the width of the end portion of the main slot 222-A is denoted as L2. Then,
is satisfied.
Referring to
In an embodiment, the border separation slot 221 and the first groove 222 may be formed through etching on the conducting layer 220.
In an embodiment, the conducting layer 220 may be a transparent conducting layer. The transparent conducting layer may be a film layer made of transparent conducting film.

It should be noted that this application not only can be applied to a touch control screen with a display function for mobile phones or the like, and also can be applied to other touch control screens that do not need a display function. Therefore, the material of the conducting layer only needs to have a conductive effect.
In an embodiment, the substrate is a glass substrate, or may be made of polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyimide (PI), a cured adhesive layer, or the like. This is not limited in any manner herein.
